Both imported and l ocally produced remedies increased in price, however the increase was not constant, limited to seasons. The market growth was stimulated by the H1N1 flu epidemic in Azerbaijan which started in Novemb er 2009, influenced by the epidemic in Ukraine, Russia, Turkey and Georgia. High activity of the local mass media led to panic in society. Most pharmacies sold out off most antiflu and related medicines within several days. Some pharmacies significantly raised the prices during t hat period. The habit of selfmedicating also had a positive influence on sales growth. Consequently, relative state authorities incre ased raids of those pharmacies which abused that panic and substantially increased unit prices. They a pplied sanctions for those stores in line with controlling their legal operations (existence of license). Launch of new brands slightly slowed down Despite advertising of pharmaceutical products being forbidden, the promotion of Panadol at a reduce d price was strongly conducted through TV channels during September and October Apart from that, companies could only distribute promotional materials and arrange informative meetings for hea lth professionals. Those who view cable TV channels have the opportunity to see advertising of OTC healthcare medicines through Russian TV, contributing to the expansion of the market position of fore ign companies. However, one of the results of the financial instability was a notable lack of new brand Customer Service Hotline: Page 3 of 23

4 s and products in In previous years, new product launches were seen across a number of categor ies. In 2010, novelties ceased with few exceptions. Analgesics, cough, cold and allergy (hay fever) re medies, medicated skin care, vitamins and dietary supplements and slimming products were those to o ffer a few launches. Despite expansion of locals, imports continue to drive overall sales The consumer health market was quite fragmented in Azerbaijan with the presence of a large number of multinationals. Despite domestic medicinal products expanding, including various topical analgesic ointments, herbalbased oils, skin care gels and creams, multinationals led the market. Those domestic companies that h ave comparatively greater financial resources have upgraded their production facilities; these include Bioil Ltd, Herba-Flora Co and Azerfarma Ltd. However, Actavis Group, Bristol- Myers Squibb Co, Marion Biotech Pvt Ltd, GlaxoSmithKline Plc, Bayer AG and Nycomed Group re main the leading players in 2010 due to the companies strong positions, particularly in cough, cold an d allergy remedies, analgesics, medicated skin care, vitamins and dietary supplements and smoking ce ssation aids. Parapharmacies/drugstores dominates consumer health sales Distribution of medicines remained strictly statecontrolled and regulated by legislation. Convenience and timesaving are the main factors driving para pharmaceuticals, as consumers have a chance to purchase toiletries, cosmetics, personal hygiene produ cts there alongside medicinal products. A popular format that emerged in Baku in 2009 is the pharmac eutical supermarket, offering medicines (OTC and Rx), cosmetics, toiletries and foods, with Avis Ti bb Market remaining a leader in that segment. However, unit prices are higher there and the sale is lim ited to the higher-income consumer group. Interest of foreign companies and state reforms will drive the market Consumer healthcare is expected to see ongoing good constant value growth during the forecast period. Growth is expected to be underpinned b y the ongoing health and wellness trend in the country. Foreign companies will continue to support their consu mer healthcare products with heavy advertising and promotion. This included not only traditional boo klets but also educational training for doctors and pharmacists. All this will contribute to the expansio n of the market position of foreign companies. Besides, as a result of various state reforms and conven ient credit crunch, more domestic companies, following European standards, will buy new equipment, upgrade the production processes and start to be active in the development of new products.

7 The low popularity of the category largely affects adult mouth care sales in the country. Traditional methods to treat mouth ailments, such as gargling with soda and putting honey around the place of a m outh ulcer with the tip of the tongue are still popular substitutions for using standard medicines. SWITCHES Unique Pharmaceutical Laboratories is strong leader in adult mouth care, accounting for a 30% value share in 2010 with its Metrogyl brand. This player was first mover in adult mouth care in 2001 and su pported strong product category growth through wider distribution coverage and advertising through b ooklets. Adult mouth care products will be used more intensively by consumers to prevent further disease de velopment, applying premium- and standardpriced branded products. However, advertising and consumer education will be important for boosting future sales.

Many consumers are more inclined to get rid of any pains, incidence of stressrelated headaches and muscular tension, quickly. Declining disposable income levels and long hours a t work to earn additional money resulted in higher stress levels for many, which in turn created tension headaches and muscular pain. This particularly boosted sales of combination products catering to a wi de range of symptoms and also of topical analgesics/anaesthetic. SWITCHES In 2010, Bristol- Myers Squibb Co continued leading the category with a 21% value share with its Aspirin UPSA, Effer Customer Service Hotline: Page 7 of 23

8 algan and Upsarin brands, followed by Marion Biotech Pvt Ltd (Cinepar) with 17% and Actavis Grou p (Troxevasin 2%, Topogel 2.5%, Spazmalgon slightly over than 1%) with a 12% value share. The bra nds are well-known and long-standing ones, which have been present on the market for years. Over the forecast period, consumers are expected to be more selective and continue to demand the pr oducts that produce the quickest effects at the cheapest prices. Thus, constant value growth rates are e xpected to be higher over the forecast period.

Furthermore, rising stress of urban living and working life also contributed to the growth. SWITCHES Yaroslavskaya Farmatsevticheskaya Fabrika ZAO led the category with a 27% value share and also gained the largest increase by three percentage points in value share in The company s Nastoyk a Boyarishnika (aglet tincture) and Nastoyka Pustirnika (motherwort tincture) are based on traditional herbs, containing aglet and motherwort. It has a strong customer base in the country and enjoys good c ustomer loyalty, due to their traditional presence and cheaper prices. Those tinctures have been well k nown to a large audience since Soviet times. Over the forecast period, constant value sales of calming and sleeping products are expected to incre ase at a CAGR of 3% to reach AZN1.6 million in Growth will be supported by intensifying stre ss, which is interrelated with further economic growth in the country during the forecast period and si multaneously, a growing focus on career and longer working hours in Baku and large cities of Azerbai jan.

These brands are Doctor Mom, Coldrex, Fervex, ACC, Strepsils, Dlyanos, Faringosept and Dr Theiss Nazolin. Due to that, the level of selfmedication continued to grow in Azerbaijan and as a result, consumption of wellknown cough, cold and allergy remedies increased. This is particularly the case for products treating s ymptoms of common colds and flu. SWITCHES Bayer AG led cough, cold and allergy (hay fever) remedies with a 13% value share, followed by Rec kitt Benckiser and Nycomed Pharma with value shares of 9% in Sagmel Inc, which ranked fifth in overall cough, cold and allergy (hay fever) remedies in 2007, was acquired in June 2008 by Bayer AG s Customer Care Division. The company thus became part of Bayer HealthCare, enabling Bayer t o extend in cough, cold and allergy (hay fever) remedies. Sagmel offers a wide range of products, incl uding antihistamines/allergy remedies (systemic), cough remedies, combination products and nasal spr ays. After acquisition, Bayer AG ranked fifth in 2008 and jumped up to the leading position in 2009 a nd Cold winter season, the symptoms of coughs and colds, alertness, common or specific flu types will be the main drivers of the category over the forecast period. Even coming into contact with a person w ith mild symptoms of a cold or common flu will increase the other person s concern and anxiety, with many thus opting for cough, cold and allergy (hay fever) remedies. Many will strive to recover as quic kly as possible, in the hope of thus maintaining a strong immune system and thus remaining more resi stant to stronger viruses.

Consumers increasingly found themselves spending more time com muting, which reduced the time available to prepare and eat meals themselves, which drives the sales performance of fast food outlets. Stress also resulted in many suffering from digestive discomfort. Thi s was due to the inevitable stress of living in large cities with overcrowded transport routes and housin g. SWITCHES In 2010, Sanofi- Aventis drove Ukrmedprom DAK with its Nastoyka Myati Perechnoy brand (mint tincture) from the l eading position which the company held in previous year. Sanofi-Aventis was the secondranking company in 2009 and managed to lead the category during 2010, achieving a 17% value share. This was largely thanks to the strong performance of the company s Nospa brand in IBS treatments and Festal brand in antiflatulents. Nospa was traditionally viewed as a spasmolytic by many consumers which relieves a stomach ache. Compared to the value sales of the review period, the constant value sales over the forecast period wi ll demonstrate a higher growth rate. This is largely due to the lower quality of food, expansion of fast f ood channels which in some cases do not follow hygienic regulations, especially in the hot summer ti me, and rising popularity of diets which in some cases have a negative impact on the stomach and inte Customer Service Hotline: Page 10 of 23

11 stines. Hence the total number of gastrointestinal problems is expected to increase which will increase in turn the demand for more qualitative digestive remedies at higher unit prices.

This is mostly due to the increasing level of selfmedication of colds, angina and flu underpinned by dynamic lifestyles and lack of time to stay at hom e and make sure that the illness is completely over. This careless treatment complicates the behaviour of the illness, causing ear-nose-throatrelated problem. This in turn increased the demand for medicated ear drops. Thus, the number of ear c are brands increased during 2010, mostly within premium brands, such as Otofa and Polydexa from L aboratoires du Docteur E Bouchara and standardpriced brand Otinum 20% from ICN Pharmaceutical Inc. SWITCHES Aventis SA led the category at the end of the review period. The company s Sofradex brand is the be st recognised product in ear care and it also achieved the highest share growth in 2010 over the previo us year. Laboratoires Biocodex SA ranked second and its Otipax brand follows Aventis s Sofradex clo sely. Leading brands in the category are long established and brand reputation plays the most importan t role in sales. Ear care is expected to grow at a constant value CAGR of 1% over the forecast period. People will st ill prefer to visit the doctor even for minor ear problems. But next time the same ailment occurs, consu mers will likely purchase the medicines without prescription.

The most important factors that hamper the development of this category are low awareness, religion and cultural aspects. However, at the end of the review period, there was an active, educational advertising campaign stressing the fact that it is not a problem to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sexual intercourse. Judging from the activity expressed in this educational advertising campaign and various TV talk sho ws devoted to this subject, there is an indication that within a few years of the forecast period, some e mergency contraception products could be introduced as OTC. Eye Care in Azerbaijan - Category Analysis Towards the end of the review period, the number of people who work with computers has been gro wing, which results in an increase in the number of people with eye irritations (red and dry eye discom forts). Long working hours with computers or lack of sleep steadily increase the demand for eye care products. Consequently, the category witnessed a flow of new brands during 2010, which are Tears N aturale II from Alcon- Couvreur nvsa, Dexamethasone from Farmak VAT and Fotil Forte from Santen Pharmaceutical Co Lt d. SWITCHES Egyptian International Pharmaceutical Industries Co SAE (EIPICO) continued to be the leading play er in eye care in 2010 with a value share of 20%. It is largely due to the popularity of its two brands B estoxol and Normatin, its advertising and promotional booklets in pharmacies. It is followed by Alcon Pharmaceuticals Ltd, thanks to the popularity of its Tears Naturale, Tobrex, Alomid, Maxidex, Quinax and Tobradex brands. The company owned the most eye care brands, and held a value share of 14% i n Customer Service Hotline: Page 12 of 23

13 Eye care is expected to see further growth, largely due to a greater number of eye problems related w ith computer use, contact lenses and pollution caused by increased urbanisation.

Competition between domestic and imported products intensified towards the end of t he review period, reflected in the gradual decrease in price differences and improvements in the image and perception of local products. Sales were led by Plethico Pharmaceuticals Ltd (Travisil) with a value share of slightly over 16% in value terms, followed by Herba-Flora Co (Herba- Flora) and Yaroslavskaya Farmatsevticheskaya Fabrika ZAO (Nastoyka pustirnika) with 16% and 13 % of value shares, respectively. These are traditional products that are well established in Azerbaijani society. Constant value growth is expected to increase during the forecast period, increasing at a CAGR of 6 %; higher than the constant value CAGR seen during the review period. Further growth will be a resul t of the broadening of herbal/traditional products assortment. Besides, the health and wellness trend may well result in more consumers switching towards herbal/traditional products, believing these prod ucts to be more natural and thus healthier. This is expected to particularly benefit herbal/traditional pr oducts in dynamic areas where there may be longterm use, such as calming and sleeping products, digestive remedies, and herbal/traditional cough, col d and allergy (hay fever) remedies.

Topical and vaginal antifungals experienced relative stagnation in t he launch of new brands, since those categories turned out to be more saturated by However, the category enjoyed an inflow of new product types, such as sulphur and/or bitumen soap especially desi gned for acne treatments and also serves as a preventive measure for facial skin. SWITCHES Lider Farm MMC with its popular Erythromicini, Synthomycini and Gentamycini brands remained l eader in 2010 with a 17% share of value sales. It enjoys consumer loyalty due to its longstanding high quality products and low prices. It is followed by Janssen Pharmaceutica NV (Johnson & Johnson Inc) with its Nizoral and Clean & Clear brands, enjoying a longstanding presence in the co untry. The Nizoral brand enjoys strong customer loyalty, having been a pioneer in medicated shampoo. Poor nutrition, pollution, increasing incidence of sexually transmitted diseases, availability of beauty salons and gyms where steps for creating a hygienic environment are not properly followed, alongsid e a growing number of allergy sufferers will contribute to the development of medicated skin care in Azerbaijan. Hence, medicated skin care in Azerbaijan is predicted to continue its dynamic growth ove r the forecast period.

Furth er new launches of slim and flavoured cigarettes underpinned demand, particularly amongst women, si nce females are more receptive to these types of cigarettes. Although promised, Azerbaijan s national parliament did not enact the new tobacco regulation which would enforce the current antitobacco measures in However, it is expected to be enacted in 2011, by adopting a new law that will ban smoking in any places of entertainment, cafés, restaurants, bars, parks, public transport stops, in corridors and any other enclosed public places where more than four people gather. SWITCHES Sales of NRT smoking cessation aids remained limited to Nicorette, which is present in Azerbaijan o nly as NRT gum. Tabex from Sopharma AD is the only brand available under herbal/traditional smoki ng cessation aids. There is no competition for NRT smoking cessation aids from Rx products or a pote ntial Rx-to- OTC switch, as there are no Rx products available. The absence of innovations, lack of advertising an d popularisation of the product remain key barriers to stronger growth of NRT smoking cessation aids in Azerbaijan. Future prospects for NRT smoking cessation aids are undoubtedly positive. A ban on tobacco adverti sing and smoking in public places is a positive development already and promotion of a healthy lifesty le will be popularised further in the country by NGO and governmental agencies, especially given that a health and wellness trend is emerging in Azerbaijan. This is a good startup that needs to be used when advertising NRT smoking cessation aids.

Hence, the high price of foreign br ands coupled with less belief in the promised effect, hampered development of sports nutrition in the c ountry at the end of the review period. On the other hand, growing product awareness, constant range expansion, wider distribution coverage (mainly through parapharmacies that are located in the central part of Baku city) and the increasing number of professional athletes and those who do musclebuilding exercises, keep the category afloat. Ultimate Nutrition Inc remains the leader in 2010 with a value share of 44%. The company offers a wide range of sports nutrition under the Ultimate Nutrition brand, with products also offered in a wide range of pack sizes, from 400g to 2,250g. This means that consumers can buy bulk packs in order to a chieve economies of scale but can also buy more affordable small packs when their funds are low. In a ddition, the company benefited from wider distribution coverage, introducing many formats of its prod ucts, such as powder, capsules and liquid. Rising spending power will assist growth of sports nutrition during the forecast period, but low brand awareness and high prices will hamper wider market development. Consequently, sales will continue to be dominated by Baku city during the forecast period, with purchases mainly made by active young men. Women, lowincome groups, rural consumers and the elderly will continue to be excluded from sports nutrition duri ng the forecast period.

Sales of vitamins were also stimulated by the growing consu mer interest in healthier lifestyles, which increased the use of vitamins that are perceived to prevent ey e problems or calcium loss and provide the organism with mineral supplements. Towards the end of th e review period, the number of public health campaigns increased in Azerbaijan, mostly through organ ising various mass media TV programs, promoting the use of vitamins and dietary supplements. The widely advertised brands through such programs are Pikovit, Multi Tabs and Vitrum multivitamins. Vitamins Dietary Supplements Actavis Group, with a 23% share of retail value sales in 2010, was the leading player in vitamins and dietary supplements, followed by Bayer AG with a 9% share. The latter company benefited from the acquisition of Sagmel Inc. Sagmel offered a wide range of products, including multivitamins and calci um supplements under the Health Life brand range and won both consumer loyalty and awareness. Th is popularity enabled Bayer to enter the vitamins and dietary supplements category in Azerbaijan. Over the forecast period, consumers are expected to increase their consumption of dietary supplemen ts and multivitamins due to growing health concerns. Multinationals will broaden their ranges, offerin g more specialised brands, encouraging consumers to try new products. Preventing disease is expected to become a more important issue for Azerbaijanis compared to the performance observed over the re view period. This trend will be driven by growing disposable income, especially amongst yearold consumers.

The desire to achieve quick weight loss without lots of exercise and dieting impa cted sales of weight management products. The open discussion of the obesity problem in the healthrelated programs of mass media, along with advocacy about healthy lifestyles and specific beauty stan dards both in local and Russian TV programs, encouraged Azerbaijanis especially females to beco me more concerned about their health in general, weight and appearance in particular. Herba- Flora Co continued to lead sales of weight management products in 2010, with a value share of 37%. Herba- Flora, the largest local company, experienced a further share increase and recorded the largest increase in current value sales, benefiting from the popularity of its slimming tea brands in Azerbaijan, such as Afrodita, The popularity of the brands can be explained by strong recognition amongst consumers, confiden ce in its quality, a reasonable price and wide availability. The rising level of information and education about obesity will continue contributing to growth. Co nsumers will also be increasingly aware of the problems caused by high cholesterol levels. Products th at reduce appetite will be more actively used, as will various teas promoting fast digestion.

19 Wound Care in Azerbaijan - Category Analysis Towards the end of the review period, the further growth was driven by the wide availability of all ty pes of wound care products, mostly sticking plasters, through pharmaceutical stores. The culture of usi ng sticking plasters, even in the case of minor wounds, has improved. During Betasan entered Ramstore supermarket promoting its sticking plaster under the Sanitabant brand. Seyitler Kimya Sanayi AS was the leading player in wound care in 2010, holding a 35% value share with the Pelikan brand. It is followed by Betasan AS with the Sanitabant and Santavik brands. All thos e brands are very popular among a wide consumer base. Wound care is expected to see a CAGR of 3% to account for AZN62,000 in constant value terms in The share of midpriced and premium products will gradually increase, since consumers will search for more specific pr oducts. Hence, in the mid- to longterm forecast period, new launches are expected to concentrate on packaging and design, aimed at chil dren, adult foot care and so on.
