-- ロシュ(RO.SW)は木曜日、第1四半期の売上高が報告ベースで減少したことを受け、2026年の成長軌道を改めて確認した。これは、スイスフランが米ドルをはじめとする多くの通貨に対して大幅に上昇したことが業績を圧迫したためだが、基調的な成長は堅調に推移した。 グループ売上高は前年同期比5%減の147億2000万スイスフランとなり、ファクトセットがまとめた市場予想の151億4000万フランを下回った。しかし、為替変動の影響を除いた実質ベース(CER)では、医薬品と診断薬の堅調な需要に支えられ、売上高は6%増加した。 同社の医薬品部門の売上高は114億7000万フランとなり、重篤疾患の治療に対する継続的な需要により、CERベースで7%増加した。総売上高のうち、53億フランは、慢性蕁麻疹および食物アレルギー治療薬「ゾレア」、乳がん治療薬「フェスゴ」、血友病A治療薬「ヘムリブラ」、重篤な眼疾患治療薬「バビスモ」、多発性硬化症治療薬「オクレバス」という、成長を牽引する上位5製品の売上によるものです。 一方、診断部門の売上高は、中国における医療費改革の影響を、コアラボおよび病理検査サービスの需要増が上回ったことで、為替変動調整後(CER)で3%増の32億5000万フランとなりました。 「両部門にわたる多様なポートフォリオと、継続的なパイプライン開発の進展により、変化の激しい地政学的環境下においても、持続的な成長に向けて万全の態勢を整えています。通期業績見通しを改めて確認します」と、トーマス・シネッカー最高経営責任者(CEO)は述べています。 ロシュは、2026年度通期のグループ売上高成長率を中一桁台、コアEPS成長率を高一桁台と見込んでおり、CERベースでの見通しを改めて表明しました。同社はスイスフラン建て配当をさらに引き上げる見込みだ。 ロシュの株価は木曜正午のチューリッヒ市場で2%以上上昇した。

Global Power Solutions (PWER.V) entered into a non-binding Letter of Intent (LOI) with 2782404 AB LTD to evaluate the potential development of a modular hydrogen-powered energy project, it said Monday.The parties, under the terms of the LOI, will undertake a technical, commercial, and regulatory feasibility review to evaluate the potential development of one or more modular facilities with a potential aggregate capacity of up to about 100 megawatts. The proposed project, if advanced following feasibility review and definitive agreements, could be developed in phased stages."This LOI represents an opportunity to evaluate a potential application of modular hydrogen-powered energy systems within a decentralized generation framework," said Global Power Solutions Chief Executive Peter Medved. "The feasibility process will allow both parties to assess technical configuration, commercial structure, and regulatory considerations before determining whether to proceed toward definitive agreements."The company may establish project-level special purpose entities (SPEs) for the development, ownership, financing, and operation of any project facilities. 2782404 is expected to provide site access information, operational requirements, and anticipated power demand profiles to support the feasibility assessment, while Global is expected to lead the technical evaluation and project development planning.The parties also anticipate that the feasibility process will include engineering studies, site suitability assessments, preliminary financial modeling, and evaluation of hydrogen production, storage, and power generation configurations. If the project proceeds beyond feasibility, the parties, it added, may negotiate a long-term power purchase agreement under which electricity generated by the project could potentially be supplied to 2782404 under a defined commercial framework.Shares of the company closed up 10% to $0.32 on Friday on the TSX Venture Exchange.
