Financial Highlights
· Total Revenue declined by 2% in the year, in line with guidance. Externalisation Revenue increased by 37% (38% at CER) in the year to $2,313m. Ongoing Externalisation Revenue4 of $821m in the year represented 35% of total Externalisation Revenue (FY 2016: $356m, 21%)
· Cost discipline in the year continued:
- Reported R&D costs declined by 2% (1% at CER) to $5,757m; Core R&D costs declined by 4% (3% at CER) to $5,412m
- Reported SG&A costs increased by 9% (10% at CER) to $10,233m; Core SG&A costs declined by 4% (3% at CER) to $7,853m
· Reported EPS of $2.37 and Core EPS of $4.28 for the year, including:
- A $617m net benefit in Q4 2017 to Reported Profit After Tax, reflecting adjustments to deferred taxes in line with the recently reduced US federal income tax rate from 35% to 21%
- A $321m benefit to Reported and Core Taxation in Q4 2017; the Reported Tax Rate in FY 2017 was (29)% and the Core Tax Rate in FY 2017 was 14%, driven by reductions in tax provisions
· The Board reaffirms its commitment to the progressive dividend policy; a second interim dividend of $1.90 per share has been declared, taking the full-year dividend per share to $2.80 (unchanged)
· FY 2018 guidance (CER): Product Sales - a low single-digit percentage increase; Core EPS - $3.30 to $3.50
Pascal Soriot, Chief Executive Officer, commenting on the results said:
"AstraZeneca's revenues improved over the course of the year, a sign of how our company is steadily turning a corner. Strong commercial execution helped us bring our science to more patients, making the most of our exciting pipeline. We made encouraging progress across the main therapy areas and delivered strong growth in China.
Alongside our CVMD medicines Brilinta and Farxiga reaching blockbuster status, we launched our first Respiratory biologic medicine, Fasenra and new cancer medicines, Imfinzi and Calquence. As well as bringing five new medicines to patients last year, we continued to find more potential uses for existing treatments, including Lynparza and Tagrisso.
We remain committed to our progressive dividend policy. Our strategy is working, propelled by a strong pipeline, good sales performance and continued cost discipline."
Commercial Highlights
Product Sales growth of 4% (3% at CER) in Q4 2017 to $5,487m, which included favourable true-up adjustments relating to the first nine months of 2017; the great majority of these true-up adjustments concerned legacy medicines. The Growth Platforms gathered momentum in the year and represented 68% of Total Revenue. They grew by 5% (6% at CER) in the year and by 12% in the quarter:
· Emerging Markets: Full-year growth of 6% (8% at CER), in line with long-term ambitions. China sales in the year grew by 12% (15% at CER) and in the quarter by 33% (30% at CER), supported by the launches of new medicines
· Respiratory: Full-year sales declined by 1%; Q4 2017 sales up by 10% (8% at CER), reflecting improved performances by Symbicort and Pulmicort
· New CVMD5: Full-year growth of 9%. Growth of 23% in the quarter (21% at CER), with strong performances from Farxiga and Brilinta, each becoming blockbusters by exceeding $1bn in sales in the year
· Japan: 1% full-year growth (4% at CER), underpinned by the growth of Tagrisso and Forxiga, partly mitigated by the impact of the entry of generic competition to Crestor in the second half of the year
· New Oncology6: 98% full-year growth. Tagrisso reached $955m to become AstraZeneca's largest-selling Oncology medicine. Imfinzi sales of $18m in the quarter vs. $19m in the full year
FY 2018 Guidance
All measures in this section are at CER. Company guidance is on Product Sales and Core EPS only.
|
Product Sales |
A low single-digit percentage increase |
|
Core EPS |
$3.30 to $3.50 |
The aforementioned growth in Product Sales is anticipated to be weighted towards the second half of the year. This reflects the remaining impact of generic competition, in particular Crestor in Europe and Japan.
Variations in performance between quarters can be expected to continue. The Company is unable to provide guidance and indications on a Reported basis because the Company cannot reliably forecast material elements of the Reported result, including the fair-value adjustments arising on acquisition-related liabilities, intangible asset impairment charges and legal settlement provisions. Please refer to the section 'Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements' at the end of this announcement.
FY 2018 Currency Impact
Based only on average exchange rates in January 2018 and the Company's published currency sensitivities, there would be a low single-digit percentage favourable impact from currency movements on Product Sales and a minimal impact on Core EPS in the year. Further details on currency sensitivities are contained within the Operating and Financial Review.
FY 2018: Additional Commentary
Outside of guidance, the Company today provides additional indications for FY 2018 vs. the prior year:
· The sum of Externalisation Revenue and Other Operating Income and Expense is anticipated to reduce vs. FY 2017. As part of its long-term growth strategy, the Company remains committed to focusing on appropriate cash-generating and value-accretive externalisation activities that reflect the ongoing productivity of the pipeline. It is also committed to the continued management of its portfolio disposals and to increasing the focus on the three main therapy areas over time
· Core R&D costs in FY 2018 are anticipated to be in the range of a low single-digit percentage decline to stable. This expectation includes the favourable impact on development costs from the MSD collaboration (Merck & Co., Inc., Kenilworth, NJ, US (known as MSD outside the US and Canada))
· The Company maintains its focus on reducing operational and infrastructure costs. Total Core SG&A costs, however, are expected to increase by a low to mid single-digit percentage in FY 2018, wholly reflecting targeted support for launches and potential launches, including Fasenra in severe, uncontrolled asthma and Imfinzi in locally-advanced, unresectable lung cancer. The Company also anticipates a reduction in restructuring costs in 2018 vs. the prior year
· A Core Tax Rate of 16-20% (FY 2017: 14%)

Notes
1. Constant exchange rates. These are non-GAAP financial measures because they remove the effects of currency movements from Reported results.
2. Reported financial measures are our financial results presented in accordance with IFRS, the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) on the basis of which we prepare our financial results.
3. Core financial measures. These are non-GAAP financial measures because, unlike Reported performance, they cannot be derived directly from the information in the Group Financial Statements. See the Operating and Financial Review for a definition of Core financial measures and a reconciliation of Core to Reported financial measures.
4. Ongoing Externalisation Revenue is defined as Externalisation Revenue excluding Initial Externalisation Revenue (which is defined as Externalisation Revenue that is recognised at the date of completion of an agreement or transaction, in respect of upfront consideration). Ongoing Externalisation Revenue comprises, among other items, royalties, milestones and profit sharing income. Ongoing Externalisation Revenue and Initial Externalisation Revenue are non-GAAP financial measures because they cannot be derived directly from the information included in the Group Financial Statements.
5. New Cardiovascular and Metabolic Diseases, incorporating Brilinta and Diabetes.
6. New Oncology, comprising Lynparza, Tagrisso, Iressa (US), Imfinzi and Calquence.
All growth rates in this announcement are shown at actual exchange rates, unless stated otherwise. Only one rate of growth is shown if the actual and constant exchange rates of growth are identical. All commentary in this announcement refers to the performance in the year and are vs. the prior year, unless stated otherwise.
Pipeline: Forthcoming Major News Flow
Innovation is critical to addressing unmet patient needs and is at the heart of the Company's growth strategy. The focus on research and development is designed to yield strong results from the pipeline.

All narrative on growth and results in this section is based on actual exchange rates, unless stated otherwise. Financial figures are in US$ millions ($m). The performance shown in this announcement covers the twelve and three-month periods to 31 December 2017 (the year (FY 2017), or the quarter (Q4 2017), respectively) compared to the twelve and three-month periods to 31 December 2016 (FY 2016 and Q4 2016, respectively). All commentary in the Operating and Financial Review relates to the full year, unless stated otherwise.
Core financial measures, EBITDA, Net Debt, Initial Externalisation Revenue and Ongoing Externalisation Revenue are non-GAAP financial measures because they cannot be derived directly from the Group Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, when provided in combination with Reported results, will provide readers with helpful supplementary information to better understand the financial performance and position of the Company on a comparable basis from period to period. These non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Core financial measures are adjusted to exclude certain significant items, such as:
· Amortisation and impairment of intangible assets, including impairment reversals but excluding any charges relating to IT assets
· Charges and provisions related to global restructuring programmes, which includes charges that relate to the impact of global restructuring programmes on capitalised IT assets
· Other specified items, principally comprising acquisition-related costs, which include fair value adjustments and the imputed finance charge relating to contingent consideration on business combinations, legal settlements and foreign-exchange gains and losses on certain non-structural intra-group loans*
Details on the nature of Core financial measures are provided on page 64 of the Annual Report and Form 20-F Information 2016. Reference should be made to the reconciliation of Core to Reported financial information included therein and in the Reconciliation of Reported to Core Financial Measures table included in the Financial Performance section of this announcement.
*This element has been added to the definition of Core financial measures during 2017. There were no such gains and losses in the income statement in prior periods.
EBITDA is defined as Reported Profit Before Tax after adding back Net Finance Expense, results from Joint Ventures and Associates and charges for depreciation, amortisation and impairment. Reference should be made to the Reconciliation of Reported Profit Before Tax to EBITDA included in the Financial Performance section of this announcement.
Net Debt is defined as interest-bearing loans and borrowings net of cash and cash equivalents, other investments and net derivative financial instruments. Reference should be made to the Reconciliation of Interest-Bearing Loans and Borrowings to Net Debt included in the Cash Flow and Balance Sheet section of this announcement.
Ongoing Externalisation Revenue is defined as Externalisation Revenue excluding Initial Externalisation Revenue (which is defined as Externalisation Revenue that is recognised at the date of completion of an agreement or transaction, in respect of upfront consideration). Ongoing Externalisation Revenue comprises, among other items, royalties, milestones and profit sharing income.
The Company strongly encourages readers not to rely on any single financial measure, but to review AstraZeneca's financial statements, including the notes thereto, and other publicly-filed Company reports, carefully and in their entirety.

The growth in the fourth quarter included the favourable impact from true-up adjustments in the US relating to the first nine months of 2017, resulting from improved data insight and methodology in the estimation of payer rebates, product returns and discounts; AstraZeneca does not anticipate a similar magnitude of adjustments in future periods.
Over the full year, Product Sales declined by 5% from $21,319m to $20,152m, a difference of $1,167m; Crestor sales declined by $1,036m and Seroquel XR sales declined by $403m. Both medicines lost exclusivity in the US in the second half of 2016.
Emerging Markets sales grew by 6% (8% at CER) to $6,149m, in line with an unchanged average-growth ambition of a mid to high single-digit percentage. In the quarter, Emerging Markets sales grew by 10% (9% at CER) to $1,630m. China sales increased by 12% (15% at CER) to $2,955m in the year and, in the quarter, by 33% (30% at CER) to $813m. These results reflected strong performances across all three main therapy areas, including the impact of the launches of new medicines.
US sales declined by 16% to $6,169m and were, alongside the effects of the Crestor and Seroquel XR losses of exclusivity, impacted by the adverse sales performance of Symbicort, which declined by 12% to $1,099m. US sales, however, grew by 9% to $1,770m in the quarter as the effects of the Crestor and Seroquel XR losses of exclusivity dissipated. Sales in the quarter also benefitted from favourable true-up adjustments in the US relating to the first nine months of 2017.
Product Sales in Europe declined by 6% (7% at CER) to $4,753m in the year, partly driven by pricing pressures on Symbicort and the initial impact from generic competition to Crestor.
The Growth Platforms grew by 5% (6% at CER) to $15,231m, representing 68% of Total Revenue and, in the quarter, by 12% to $4,180m:

_______________________________________________________________________________________
Product Sales of $4,024m; an increase of 19%. Oncology Product Sales represented 20% of total Product Sales, up from 16% in FY 2016.
Lung Cancer
Product Sales of $955m; an increase of 126%. In the year, the medicine became AstraZeneca's largest-selling Oncology medicine and, by the end of 2017, the medicine had received regulatory approval in more than 60 countries. Global growth partly reflected higher testing rates, led by Japan and the US.
Sales in the US were $405m and grew by 59%, with a steady increase in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M-mutation testing rates . In September 2017, US National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) clinical-practice guidelines were updated to include the use of Tagrisso as a 1st-line treatment of patients with metastatic EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The use of Tagrisso in this indication is not yet approved by the US FDA.
Within Emerging Markets, Tagrisso sales were $135m in the year (FY 2016: $10m). In Europe, sales of $187m represented growth of 146% (142% at CER) and were driven by a continue d uptake, positive reimbursement decisions and further growth in testing rates. Tagrisso was reimbursed in 15 European countries at the end of the year and was under reimbursement review in additional European countries, with positive decisions anticipated in 2018.
Testing rates in Japan continued to exceed 90%, with full-year sales of $219m (FY 2016: $82m) reflecting a high penetration rate in the currently-approved 2nd-line EGFR T790M-mutation setting.
Product Sales of $528m; an increase of 3%.
Emerging Markets sales increased by 8% to $251m. China Product Sales increased by 24% (28% at CER) to $144m, reflecting an improvement in patient access following the conclusion of the national negotiation process in 2016; Iressa was subsequently included on the National Reimbursement Drug List (NRDL). Other Emerging Markets sales, however, were adversely impacted by competition from branded and generic medicines, most notably in the Republic of Korea.
Sales in the US increased by 70% to $39m and declined in Europe by 7% (8% at CER) to $112m. Given the significant future potential of Tagrisso, the Company continues to prioritise commercial support for Tagrisso in established markets over Iressa.
Other Cancers
Product Sales of $297m; an increase of 36% (35% at CER). By the end of 2017, the medicine had received regulatory approval in 57 countries, with reviews underway in a number of additional markets.
US sales grew by 11% in the year to $141m. First-half sales were adversely impacted by the introduction of competing poly ADP ribose polymerase (PARP)-inhibitor medicines. A much-improved performance in the second half, however, reflected the launch of Lynparza tablets for patients regardless of BRCA-mutation status, for the treatment of 2nd-line ovarian cancer. This was illustrated by sequential quarterly US sales from Q3 2017 to Q4 2017, where sales grew by 46%, from $37m to $54m. By the end of November 2017, Lynparza was the leading PARP inhibitor in the US, measured by total prescription volumes.
Sales in Europe increased by 60% (58% at CER) to $130m, reflecting high BRCA-testing rates and a number of successful launches, most recently in Finland and the Republic of Ireland.
On 27 July 2017, AstraZeneca and MSD announced a global strategic oncology collaboration to co-develop Lynparza and the potential medicine selumetinib for multiple cancer types as monotherapies and in combinations. The integration of development and commercial activities is progressing well.
Imfinzi
Product Sales of $19m ($18m in Q4 2017); launched in the US in May 2017. By the end of 2017, Imfinzi had also received regulatory approvals in Canada, Brazil and Israel.
Imfinzi was approved under the US FDA's Accelerated-Approval pathway and launched on the same day as a fast-to-market, limited commercial opportunity, indicated for the 2nd-line treatment of patients with locally-advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma (bladder cancer).
The Company is actively preparing for the potential launch of Imfinzi in locally-advanced, unresectable NSCLC in H1 2018, reflecting the US FDA regulatory submission acceptance and the award of Priority Review status in the quarter.
Calquence
Product Sales of $3m. Approved and launched in the US on 31 October 2017, Calquence delivered a promising performance in the number of new-patient starts in previously-treated mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). The medicine was included within NCCN MCL guidelines on 15 November 2017.
Product Sales of $941m; an increase of 13%.
Emerging Markets sales grew by 20% (18% at CER) to $115m. In 2017, the Company received a label extension for Faslodex in Russia in the 1st-line monotherapy setting, based on data from the FALCON trial. Russia sales grew by 29% in the year (14% at CER) to $18m.
US sales increased by 12% to $492m, mainly reflecting a continued strong uptake of the combination with palbociclib, a medicine approved for the treatment of hormone-receptor-positive (HR+) breast cancer.
Europe sales increased by 12% (11% at CER) to $256m but increased by only 5% (down by 3% at CER) to $62m in the quarter, reflecting the impact of generic entrants in certain markets. In June 2017, a label extension based upon the FALCON trial in the 1st-line setting was approved in Japan, where sales grew by 14% (17% at CER) in the year to $72m.
Product Sales of $735m; a decline of 10% (9% at CER).
Emerging Markets sales declined by 1% to $353m in the year. Sales in Europe declined by 10% (8% at CER) to $141m, reflecting the impact of generic competition, mainly in Central and Eastern Europe. In Established Rest Of World (ROW, comprising Japan, Canada, Australia and New Zealand), sales fell by 16% (15% at CER) to $226m, driven by increased competition. On 31 March 2017, the Company completed an agreement with TerSera for the sale of the commercial rights to Zoladex in the US and Canada.
CVMD
Product Sales of $7,266m; a decline of 10%. CVMD Product Sales represented 36% of total Product Sales, down from 38% in FY 2016.
Within the New CVMD Growth Platform, comprising Brilinta and Diabetes and excluding medicines such as Crestor, sales grew by 9% to $3,567m. Strong performances were delivered by Farxiga and Brilinta, each becoming blockbusters by exceeding $1bn in sales in the year.
Product Sales of $1,079m; an increase of 29%.
Emerging Markets sales of Brilinta in the year grew by 19% (21% at CER) to $224m. Growth in Emerging Markets was reflected in a continued outperformance of growth in the oral anti-platelet market. Encouraging sales performances were delivered in many markets.
US sales of Brilinta, at $509m, represented an increase of 46% for the full year, including growth of 47% in the quarter. The performance was driven primarily by an increase in the average duration of therapy and strong growth in the number of patients sent home from hospital with Brilinta. Furthermore, Brilinta achieved a record total-prescription market share of 7.2% at the end of the year; days-of-therapy volume market-share data was particularly encouraging. The performance reflected the growth in demand that was partly supported by updated preferred guidelines from the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association in 2016, as well as the narrowing of a competitor's label. Brilinta is the standard of care in the treatment of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and remained the branded oral anti-platelet market leader in the US in the period.
Sales of Brilique in Europe increased by 14% (13% at CER) to $295m, reflecting indication leadership across a number of markets and bolstered by the inclusion in high-risk, post myocardial infarction (HR PMI) guidelines from the European Society of Cardiology in 2017. Volume share reached 6.5% at the end of the year, with improvements delivered across the major markets; Brilique continued to outperform the oral anti-platelet market in the year. Brilique gained further reimbursement in key markets in its HR PMI indication with the 60mg dose.
Product Sales of $1,074m; an increase of 29% (28% at CER), consolidating its global leadership position within the sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor class.
Emerging Markets sales increased by 74% (73% at CER) to $232m, reflecting ongoing launches and improved levels of patient access. In March 2017, Forxiga became the first SGLT2-inhibitor medicine to be approved in China.
US sales in the year increased by 7% to $489m. The first-half performance, with a sales decline of 1% to $206m, was adversely impacted by the Company's level of participation in affordability programmes. Significant changes to the Company's approach to these programmes, however, saw a much-improved performance in the second half, illustrated by Q4 2017 sales growth of 15% to $150m. SGLT2-class growth was supported by growing evidence around cardiovascular (CV) benefits, including data from the CVD-REAL study that was published in March 2017.
Sales in Europe increased by 29% (28% at CER) to $242m as the medicine continued to gain market share in the innovative oral class; it also retained leadership in the SGLT2 class, which had the strongest class growth amongst innovative oral diabetes medicines in the year. In Japan, where Ono Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd is a partner and records in-market sales, sales to the partner amounted to $53m, representing a growth of 89% (93% at CER).
Product Sales of $611m in the year, a decline of 15% (16% at CER). Onglyza sales, however, grew by 21% in Q4 2017 (19% at CER) to $180m. The performance in the latter period partly reflected favourable true-up adjustments relating to the first nine months of 2017 in the US, as well as an encouraging performance in Emerging Markets. Given the significant future potential of Farxiga, the Company continues to prioritise its commercial support over Onglyza.
The full-year performance reflected adverse pressures on the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) class and an acceleration of ongoing Diabetes market dynamics, where patients are moving to medicines and classes of medicines with documented CV benefits.
Sales in Emerging Markets declined by 8% (10% at CER) to $130m. Onglyza, however, entered the NRDL in China in the year, underpinning Q4 2017 Emerging Markets sales growth of 16% (13% at CER) in the quarter to $37m. Sales in Europe in the year declined by 21% to $104m, reflecting the broader dynamic of shift away from the DPP-4 class. In Japan, in-market sales are recorded by Kyowa Hakko Kirin Co., Ltd, to whom sales totalled $13m.
Product Sales of $574m; a decline of 1%, driven by pricing pressures. Favourable sales volumes were a result of continued growth in the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) class at the expense of insulin.
Sales of Bydureon in Emerging Markets were $9m. In 2016, AstraZeneca entered a strategic collaboration with 3SBio for the rights to commercialise Bydureon in China as the Company focused on its oral Diabetes strategy.
Sales in the US declined by 1% to $458m, reflecting the level of competition and resulting price pressures. US sales in the quarter grew by 1% to $115m, partly reflecting market growth and the impact of the aforementioned true-up sales adjustments. In the third quarter of the year, the Company successfully launched the injectable suspension autoinjector, known as Bydureon BCise in the US. The new autoinjector is a new formulation of Bydureon injectable suspension in an improved once-weekly, single-dose autoinjector device. It is designed for patient convenience in a pre-filled device with a pre-attached, hidden needle.
Bydureon sales in Europe declined by 12% (11% at CER) in the year to $88m, resulting from the impact of increased levels of competition.
Product Sales of $2,365m; a decline of 30%.
Sales in China grew by 20% (23% at CER) to $373m. In the US, sales declined by 70% to $373m, driven by the market entry in July 2016 of multiple Crestor generic medicines. In the quarter, US sales increased by 34% to $127m, benefitting from true-up adjustments. In Europe, sales declined by 23% to $666m; in Q4 2017, Europe sales of Crestor declined by 27% (32% at CER) to $152m, reflecting the impact of generic medicines in certain markets, such as France and Spain. This impact on Europe sales is anticipated to continue in FY 2018.
In Japan, where Shionogi Co. Ltd is a partner, Crestor maintained its position as the leading statin, despite sales declining by 6% (4% at CER) to $489m. This decline reflected the recent entry of multiple Crestor competitors in the market in the latter stages of the year.
Product Sales of $4,706m; a decline of 1%. Respiratory Product Sales represented 23% of total Product Sales, from 22% in FY 2016.
Product Sales of $2,803m; a decline of 6%. In Q4 2017, sales increased by 2% (stable at CER) to $752m, partly reflecting the aforementioned favourable true-up adjustments relating to the first nine months of 2017 in the US.
Symbicort continued to lead the global market by volume within the inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) / Long-Acting Beta Agonist (LABA) class. Emerging Markets sales grew by 9% (10% at CER) to $439m, partly reflecting growth in China of 13% (17% at CER) to $177m and in Latin America (ex-Brazil), where sales grew by 24% (30% at CER) to $46m.
In contrast, US sales declined by 12% to $1,099m, in line with expectations of continued challenging market conditions; these conditions were a result of the impact of managed-care access programmes on pricing within the class. Competition also remained intense from other classes, such as Long-Acting Muscarinic Antagonist (LAMA)/LABA combination medicines. Symbicort sales in the US in the quarter grew by 1% to $288m, driven by market growth, the impact of the aforementioned true-up sales adjustments and increased demand in government and non-retail channels.
In Europe, sales declined by 10% to $819m, reflecting the level of competition from other branded and Symbicort-analogue medicines. Symbicort, however, continued to retain its class-leadership position and stabilise its volume market share in the LABA/ICS class.
In Japan, where Astellas Pharma Co. Ltd assists as a promotional partner, sales declined by 3% (stable at CER) to $205m.
Product Sales of $1,176m; an increase of 11% (12% at CER).
Emerging Markets sales increased by 20% (23% at CER) to $840m, reflecting strong underlying volume growth, with sales in China, Middle East and North Africa proving particularly encouraging. Emerging Markets represented 71% of global sales and, in the quarter, sales increased by 37% (34% at CER), reflecting a significant level of seasonal demand. Usage in China progressed further, with an increasing prevalence of acute COPD and paediatric asthma accompanied by continued investment by the Company in new hospital nebulisation centres by around 2,000 to 15,000.
Sales in the US and Europe declined by 10% to $156m and by 7% (8% at CER) to $92m, respectively.
Product Sales of $198m; an increase of 29% (28% at CER).
US sales, representing 84% of global sales, increased by 25% to $167m, driven by increased adoption of the medicine which is the only oral, selective, long-acting inhibitor of the enzyme phosphodiesterase-4, an inflammatory agent in COPD. Sales in Europe increased by 73% to $26m.
Product Sales of $150m; a decline of 12%.
Sales in the US declined by 14% to $66m, reflecting lower levels of use of inhaled monotherapy medicines for COPD and the Company's commercial focus on the launch of Bevespi. On 17 March 2017, AstraZeneca announced that it had entered a strategic collaboration with Circassia for the development and commercialisation of Tudorza in the US. Circassia began its promotion of Tudorza in the US in May 2017 and, in the quarter, sales increased by 19% to $19m. AstraZeneca books Product Sales of Tudorza in the US.
Sales in Europe declined by 12% (11% at CER) to $73m, impacted by the decline of the overall LAMA monotherapy class.
Product Sales of $79m; an increase of 25%.
Duaklir, the Company's first inhaled dual bronchodilator, is now available for patients in over 25 countries, with almost all sales emanating from Europe. The growth in sales in the year was favourably impacted by the performances in Germany and the UK, as well as the recent launch in Italy. The LAMA/LABA class continued to grow strongly, albeit below expectations. Duaklir is expected to be submitted for US regulatory review in H1 2018. Duaklir is a registered trademark in certain European countries. The US trademark is to be confirmed.
Product Sales of $16m; launched in early 2017. Q4 2017 sales of $8m.
Bevespi was launched commercially in the US during early 2017. Prescriptions in the period tracked in line with other LAMA/LABA launches. The overall class in the US, however, continued to grow more slowly than anticipated. Bevespi was the first medicine launched using the Company's Aerosphere Delivery Technology delivered in a pressurised metered-dose inhaler.
Product Sales of $4,156m; a decline of 18% (17% at CER). Other Product Sales represented 21% of total Product Sales, down from 24% in FY 2016.
Product Sales of $1,952m; a decline of 4% (3% at CER).
Emerging Markets sales declined by 1% (up 2% at CER) to $684m. Sales in the US declined by 10% to $499m in the year and by 58% in the quarter to $57m, reflecting a true-up adjustment. Sales in Europe declined by 1% (3% at CER) in the year to $248m. In Japan, where Daiichi Sankyo is a partner, sales increased by 1% (4% at CER) to $439m.
Product Sales of $687m; an increase of 1%.
US sales decreased by 2% to $317m, constrained by the guidelines from the American Academy of Pediatrics Committee on Infectious Diseases, which restricted the number of patients eligible for preventative therapy with Synagis. Product Sales to AbbVie Inc., which is responsible for the commercialisation of Synagis in over 80 countries outside the US, increased by 5% to $370m.
Product Sales of $332m; a decline of 55%.
Sales of Seroquel XR in the US, where several competitors launched generic Seroquel XR medicines from November 2016, declined by 66% to $175m. Sales of Seroquel XR in Europe declined by 42% to $78m, also reflecting the impact of generic-medicine competition.
Product Sales of $78m; a decline of 25% (28% at CER).
No US sales of FluMist were recorded in the quarter due to the continued absence of a recommendation for use by the US Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) during the 2017-2018 influenza season. FluMist continues to be recommended for use outside the US. Sales in Europe increased by 17% (12% at CER) to $76m, driven primarily by higher usage rates in the UK, which reflected the favourable impact of the UK National Immunisation Programme.

2 Emerging Markets comprises all remaining Rest of World markets, including Brazil, China, India, Mexico, Russia and Turkey.
Emerging Markets
Product Sales of $6,149m; an increase of 6% (8% at CER).
China sales grew by 12% (15% at CER) to $2,955m, representing 48% of total Emerging Markets sales. Onglyza and Iressa were included on the NRDL in China in the year, as were Brilinta, Faslodex and Seroquel XR; the benefits of this inclusion are anticipated to favourably impact Product Sales after FY 2017. Crestor also had its 2nd-line usage restriction removed and Zoladex was reclassified from the hormone and endocrine classification to oncology, which is expected to continue to support growth. In the quarter, China sales grew strongly by 33% (30% at CER), reflecting strong performances from newly-launched medicines. Tagrisso was launched in China in April 2017.
Emerging Markets sales excluding China, however, declined by 7% (6% at CER) in Q4 2017, primarily driven by challenging conditions in Russia and Latin America, as well as the adverse impact of medicines externalised or disposed of in FY 2017. Sales in Latin America (ex-Brazil) declined by 12% (10% at CER) to $453m. Brazil sales increased by 4% (but declined by 5% at CER) to $361m. Russia sales declined by 1% (14% at CER) to $231m. Sales of Symbicort grew by 9% (10% at CER) to $439m, reflecting higher prescription demand, with notable performances in Latin America and China.
Product Sales of $6,169m; a decline of 16%. Q4 2017 sales in the US grew by 9% to $1,770m, partly reflecting favourable true-up adjustments relating to the first nine months of 2017.
The decline in sales in the year reflected generic-medicine launches that impacted sales of Crestor and Seroquel XR. Unfavourable managed-care pricing and continued competitive intensity impacted sales of Symbicort, which declined by 12% to $1,099m.
The New Oncology Growth Platform in the US grew by 50% to $607m, primarily driven by encouraging Tagrisso sales growth of 59% to $405m in the year (FY 2016: $254m). Brilinta sales grew by 46% in the US to $509m. The New CVMD Growth Platform increased sales by 5% in the US to $1,942m, reflecting strong performances from Farxiga and Brilinta.
Product Sales of $4,753m; a decline of 6% (7% at CER).
The New Oncology Growth Platform in Europe grew by 102% (99% at CER) to $317m, partly driven by Tagrisso sales of $187m. Lynparza sales of $130m represented growth of 60% (58% at CER). Forxiga sales growth of 29% (28% at CER) to $242m was accompanied by Brilique growth of 14% (13% at CER) to $295m. These performances were more than offset by declines in other areas, however, including a 10% decline in Symbicort sales to $819m. Symbicort maintained its position, however, as the number one ICS/LABA medicine, despite competition from branded and analogue medicines. Crestor sales declined by 23% to $666m, reflecting the entry of generic medicines in certain markets in the year.
Product Sales of $3,081m; stable (up 1% at CER).
Japan sales increased by 1% (4% at CER) to $2,208m. EGFR T790M-mutation testing rates in Japan continued to exceed 90% through the year, with full-year Tagrisso sales of $219m (FY 2016: $82m) reflecting a high penetration rate in the currently-approved 2nd-line setting. Faslodex sales in Japan were favourably impacted by a new label in the year; Faslodex sales in Japan increased by 14% (17% at CER) to $72m.
The first generic competitor to Crestor was launched in Japan in Q3 2017 and further generic competition entered the market in the final quarter. Full-year Crestor sales in Japan declined by 6% (4% at CER) to $489m; in the quarter, they declined by 26% (21% at CER) to $95m. Nexium sales in Japan increased by 1% (4% at CER) in the year to $439m and sales of Forxiga increased by 89% (93% at CER) in the year to $53m.

2 Each of the measures in the Core column in the above table are non-GAAP financial measures. See the Operating and Financial Review for related definitions.
3 Gross Margin, as a percentage of Product Sales, reflects gross profit derived from Product Sales, divided by Product Sales. Q 4 2017 Cost of Sales included $2m of income relating to externalisation activities (Q4 2016: $nil), which is excluded from the calculation of Gross Margin . Movements in Gross Margin are expressed in percentage points.
Reported Gross Profit declined by 4% to $18,147m; Core Gross Profit declined by 3% to $18,477m, one percentage point more than the Total Revenue decline. Externalisation Revenue of $2,313m included $1,247m received as part of the Lynparza and selumetinib collaboration with MSD. This was outweighed by the adverse impact of product mix, the ramp-up of manufacturing capacity for new medicines and the inclusion of the profit-share on the aforementioned collaboration.
The calculation of Reported and Core Gross Margin excludes the impact of Externalisation Revenue, thereby reflecting the underlying performance of Product Sales. The Reported Gross Margin declined by one percentage point to 79.6%. The Core Gross Margin declined by one percentage point to 81.2%. The declines were primarily driven by the effect of losses of exclusivity on higher-margin Crestor and Seroquel XR, as well as the factors mentioned above.
In the quarter, the Reported Gross Margin was stable at 77.6%; the Core Gross Margin was stable (increased by one percentage point at CER) to 79.4%.
Reported R&D costs declined by 2% (1% at CER) to $5,757m, with the Company continuing to focus on resource prioritisation and cost discipline. Core R&D costs declined by 4% (3% at CER) to $5,412m. The movement vs. the prior year was in line with commitments made in February 2017.
Reported SG&A costs increased by 9% (10% at CER) to $10,233m in the year and by 122% (119% at CER) to $3,078m in the quarter. This reflected the impact of fair-value adjustments to contingent consideration on business combinations in the comparative period and, to a lesser extent, impairment charges recorded in the quarter.
Core SG&A costs declined by 4% (3% at CER) to $7,853m. This was in line with commitments made in February 2017 and despite strategic investment in new launches.
Core SG&A costs in the quarter increased by 6% (5% at CER) to $2,175m. This reflected the aforementioned increased investment, including in medical-affairs capability and capacity in order to support the launches and early-stage commercialisation phases of specialty-care medicines such as Tagrisso, Imfinzi, Lynparza and Fasenra. SG&A general infrastructure costs declined in the quarter as the Company maintained its focus on cost discipline. The Company booked a one-time gain of $92m in the quarter following adjustments to its retirement benefit plans in the US.
In the year, the Company continued to consolidate its operations that support the business. It is committed to driving simplification and standardisation through targeted centralisation of back and middle office activities that are currently performed in various enabling units, including Finance, Compliance, HR, Procurement and IT. As a result, underlying operational-infrastructure costs were consistently reduced, in line with prior trends. The recently-launched Global Business Services organisation provides integration of governance, locations and business practices to shared services and outsourcing activities across AstraZeneca.
Where AstraZeneca does not retain a significant ongoing interest in medicines or potential new medicines, income from disposal transactions is reported within Other Operating Income and Expense in the Company's financial statements. Reported Other Operating Income and Expense increased by 11% in the year to $1,830m and included:
· $555m resulting from the sale of remaining rights to the anaesthetics portfolio to Aspen
· $301m resulting from the sale of rights to Seloken in Europe to Recordati S.p.A (Recordati)
· $175m of milestone receipts in relation to the disposal of Zavicefta to Pfizer Inc.
· $165m resulting from the sale of the global rights to Zomig outside Japan to the Grünenthal Group (Grünenthal)
· $161m of gains recognised on the sale of short-term investments
· $73m from the sale of Prilosec royalty streams
· Other gains on disposal of intangible assets
Core Other Operating Income and Expense increased by 14% to $1,953m, with the difference to Reported Other Operating Income and Expense primarily driven by a restructuring charge taken against land and buildings.
Reported Operating Profit declined by 25% (28% at CER) in the year to $3,677m. In the quarter, Reported Operating Profit declined by 73% (71% at CER) to $686m, driven by higher Other Operating Income and Expense in Q4 2016. The Reported Operating Profit margin declined by five percentage points (six percentage points at CER) to 16% of Total Revenue. Core Operating Profit increased by 2% (stable at CER) to $6,855m. The Core Operating Profit margin increased by one percentage point to 31% of Total Revenue.
Brexit Planning
Following the UK referendum outcome of a decision for the UK to leave the European Union (EU) in June 2016, the progress of current negotiations between the UK Government and the EU will likely determine the future terms of the UK's relationship with the EU, as well as to what extent the UK will be able to continue to benefit from the EU's single market and its regulatory frameworks.
In response to this, the Company has taken the decision to implement certain actions to mitigate the potential risk of disruption to the supply of medicines including but not limited to duplication of release testing and procedures for products based in the EU27 and the UK, transfer of regulatory licenses, customs and duties set up for introduction or amendment of existing tariffs or processes and associated IT systems upgrades. The costs associated with this and certain other actions directly related to Brexit will be charged as restructuring with the majority of such costs expected to be cash costs. However, until the Brexit negotiation process is completed, it is difficult to anticipate the overall potential impact on AstraZeneca's operations and hence the final expected costs to be incurred.
Reported Net Finance Expense increased by 6% in the year to $1,395m, primarily reflecting a foreign-exchange impact relating to the classification of certain non-structural intra-group loans. Reported Net Finance Expense declined by 4% at CER, reflecting reduced levels of discount unwind on acquisition-related liabilities resulting from the diabetes alliance with Bristol-Myers Squibb Company (BMS). Excluding the discount unwind on acquisition-related liabilities and the adverse foreign-exchange impact, the Core Net Finance Expense declined by 2% (4% at CER) to $650m.
Profit Before Tax
Reported Profit Before Tax declined by 37% (38% at CER) to $2,227m, reflecting the lower Reported Gross Margin and an increase in Reported SG&A costs. EBITDA declined by 8% (10% at CER) to $6,713m.
Taxation
The Reported Tax Rate of (29)% in the year benefitted from a favourable net adjustment of $617m to deferred taxes, reflecting the recently reduced US federal income tax rate and non-taxable remeasurements of acquisition-related liabilities. Additionally, there was a $321m benefit in the final quarter to the Reported and Core Tax Rates, reflecting:
· reductions in tax provisions and provision to return adjustments, reflecting:
- the expiry of statute of limitations
- favourable progress of discussions with tax authorities
· the recognition of previously unrecognised tax losses
· the favourable impact of UK Patent box profits
The Core Tax Rate for the year was 14%. Excluding these benefits, both the Reported and Core Tax Rates would have been 22%. The net cash tax paid for the year was $454m, representing 20% of Reported Profit Before Tax.
The Reported and Core Tax Rates for the comparative period were 4% and 11% respectively. These rates included a one-off benefit of $453m following agreements between the Canadian tax authority and the UK and Swedish tax authorities in respect of transfer pricing arrangements for the period from 2004-2016. Excluding this effect, the Reported and Core Tax Rates for the comparative period were 17% and 18% respectively. The cash tax paid for the comparative period was $412m, which was 12% of Reported Profit Before Tax.
Reported EPS of $2.37 represented a decline of 14% (15% at CER) in the year. The performance was driven by a decline in Total Revenue and increased SG&A costs, partly offset by the aforementioned net tax benefit, continued progress on R&D cost control and an increase in Other Operating Income and Expense. Core EPS declined by 1% (2% at CER) to $4.28.
Dividend Per Share and Dividend Commitment
The Board has declared a second interim dividend of $1.90 per share (133.6 pence, 14.97 SEK) bringing the dividend per share for the full year to $2.80 (202.5 pence, 22.37 SEK). The Board reaffirms its commitment to the Company's progressive dividend policy.
For holders of the Company's American Depositary Shares (ADSs), the $1.90 per Ordinary Share equates to $0.95 per ADS. Two ADSs equal one Ordinary Share.

AstraZeneca has a deep-rooted heritage in Oncology and offers a growing line of new medicines that has the potential to transform patients' lives and the Company's future. At least six Oncology medicines are expected to be launched between 2014 and 2020, of which Lynparza, Tagrisso, Imfinzi and Calquence are already benefitting patients. An extensive pipeline of small-molecule and biologic medicines is in development and the Company is committed to advancing New Oncology, primarily focused on the treatment of lung, ovarian, breast and blood cancers, as one of AstraZeneca's Growth Platforms.
During the period, the Company presented Lynparza data at the San Antonio Breast Cancer annual symposium; highlights included data from the MEDIOLA combination trial (Lynparza + Imfinzi) and the Asian-cohort data from the OlympiAD Lynparza metastatic breast-cancer trial. The Company also presented data from the new and emerging haematology portfolio at the American Society of Hematology (ASH) annual meeting; highlights included Calquence data in several cancer types, including MCL and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL).
a) Faslodex (breast cancer)
On 13 November 2017, the Company announced that the European Medicines Agency (EMA) had approved a new indication for Faslodex in Europe in combination with a CDK4/6 inhibitor, palbociclib, for the treatment of hormone receptor-positive (HR+), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-), locally-advanced or metastatic breast cancer in patients who have received prior endocrine therapy.
On 14 November 2017, the Company announced that the US FDA had approved a new indication for Faslodex, expanding the indication to include use with abemaciclib, a CDK4/6 inhibitor, for the treatment of HR+, HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer in patients with disease progression after endocrine therapy.
b) Lynparza ( multiple cancers )
On 12 January 2018, the Company announced that the US FDA had approved Lynparza for use in patients with deleterious or suspected deleterious germline BRCA (gBRCA)-mutated HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer who have been previously treated with chemotherapy in the neoadjuvant, adjuvant or metastatic setting. The approval was based on data from the randomised, open-label, Phase III OlympiAD trial , which investigated Lynparza vs. physician's choice of chemotherapy (capecitabine, eribulin or vinorelbine). In the trial, Lynparza significantly prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) compared with chemotherapy and reduced the risk of disease progression or death by 42% (Hazard Ratio (HR) 0.58; median PFS of 7.0 vs 4.2 months).
On 19 January 2018, AstraZeneca and MSD announced that the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare had approved Lynparza tablets (300mg twice daily) for use in patients as a maintenance therapy for platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer, regardless of their BRCA mutation status, who are in response to their last platinum-based chemotherapy. Lynparza was the first PARP inhibitor to be approved in Japan. During the period, the Company also received priority review status for Lynparza in platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer from the China FDA.
During the period, the Company presented an analysis of the comparison in endpoints from the Phase III trials of Lynparza and niraparib in patients with platinum-sensitive, relapsed germline BRCA (gBRCA)-mutated ovarian cancer at the International Society for PharmacoEconomics and Outcomes Research European Congress. Lynparza and niraparib are PARP inhibitors.
A key summary of the efficacy and tolerability measures are detailed in the table below, which includes an investigator-assessed 14.8 months of median PFS (mPFS) for niraparib in gBRCA patients:

The Company also presented an update on an Asian cohort from the Phase III OlympiAD trial of Lynparza in HER2-negative, gBRCA-mutated metastatic breast-cancer patients. Data from the 87 Asian patients demonstrated that PFS was prolonged in patients receiving Lynparza compared with those treated with physician's choice treatment (median value of 5.7 months vs. 4.2 months, HR 0.53). The findings demonstrated that Lynparza is generally well tolerated in Asian patients and provides a clinically-meaningful PFS benefit compared with physician's choice treatment. Efficacy and safety profiles were generally consistent with those seen in the global population.
Updated data from the gBRCAm HER2-negative metastatic breast-cancer cohort of the MEDIOLA Phase II basket trial of Lynparza and Imfinzi were also presented: 20 patients (80%) had disease control (comprising complete response, partial response and stable disease) at 12 weeks (primary efficacy endpoint) and 12 patients (48%) at 28 weeks (secondary endpoint). The combination was well tolerated and the 12-week disease control rate (80%) exceeded the pre-specified target. The data supported the hypothesis that the addition of Imfinzi may enhance the efficacy of Lynparza monotherapy. Ongoing key Lynparza combination trials include:

c) Tagrisso (lung cancer)
On 18 December 2017, the Company announced that the US FDA had accepted a supplemental New Drug Application (sNDA) for the use of Tagrisso in the 1st-line treatment of patients with metastatic NSCLC whose tumours have EGFR mutations (exon 19 deletions or exon 21 (L858R) substitution mutations). The application was based on data from the Phase III FLAURA trial, which showed that Tagrisso significantly improves PFS compared to current 1st-line EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors, erlotinib or gefitinib, in previously-untreated patients with locally-advanced or metastatic EGFR-mutated NSCLC. The US FDA granted Tagrisso Priority Review status in 2017 and previously granted Breakthrough Therapy Designation in the 1st-line treatment of patients with metastatic EGFR-mutated NSCLC.
On 28 November 2017, the Company announced that the EMA had accepted a variation to the Marketing Authorisation Application for Tagrisso. The application was in line with the aforementioned US application. On
27 November 2017, the Company announced the submission of a sNDA to Japan's Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency for the use of Tagrisso for the 1st-line treatment of patients with inoperable or recurrent EGFR-mutated NSCLC.
d) Imfinzi (lung and other cancers)
The Company continues to advance multiple monotherapy trials of Imfinzi and combination trials of Imfinzi with tremelimumab and other potential new medicines:
Lung Cancer
In November 2017, the Company presented further data at the European Society For Medical Oncology meeting in Singapore in respect of the PACIFIC Phase III trial, including clinical activity, patient-reported outcomes and safety data regarding sequential treatment with Imfinzi in patients with locally-advanced, unresectable NSCLC, who had not progressed following standard platinum-based chemotherapy concurrent with radiation therapy. The analysis demonstrated a PFS improvement across all pre-specified subgroups and the incidence of new lesions, including new brain metastases, was lower with Imfinzi vs. placebo.
During the period, the Brazil Health Regulatory Agency granted Imfinzi an expedited review, based on the PACIFIC trial data, as a sequential treatment in patients with locally-advanced, unresectable NSCLC, who had not progressed following standard platinum-based chemotherapy concurrent with radiation therapy. The Republic of Korea Ministry of Food and Drug Safety also accepted the marketing authorisation application of Imfinzi, based on the aforementioned PACIFIC trial data .

During the period, the Brazil Health Regulatory Agency granted approval to Imfinzi for the treatment of patients with locally-advanced or metastatic bladder cancer who have suffered disease progression during or following platinum-containing chemotherapy or who have suffered disease progression within 12 months of neoadjuvant or adjuvant treatment with platinum-containing chemotherapy. The regulatory decision was the fastest-ever immuno-oncology approval in Brazil. Imfinzi's approval, based on Phase Ib/II clinical-trial data, was received only 10 months after submission, reflecting the importance of a new treatment option for patients and compelling clinical data.

During the period, it was confirmed that the FUSION programme, conducted by Celgene Corporation (Celgene), will not enrol further patients in the clinical trials in multiple myeloma (MM) (MM-001, MM-002, MM-003, and MM-005). This update followed an announcement in September 2017 that Celgene had been informed that the US FDA had placed a partial clinical hold on five trials and a full clinical hold on one trial in the programme. The trials were testing Imfinzi in combination with immunomodulatory agents such as lenalidomide, with or without chemotherapy, in blood cancers such as MM, CLL and lymphoma. Two ongoing Company trials of Imfinzi in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) will continue as planned. The MDS-001 trial, that has separate cohorts for newly-diagnosed acute myeloid leukaemia and MDS patients, has completed enrolment and will continue as planned. The DLBCL-001 trial will continue to enrol, with all patients receiving Imfinzi + R-CHOP, a chemotherapy treatment using rituximab.
e) Calquence (blood cancer)
Following the US FDA accelerated approval of Calquence on 31 October 2017, AstraZeneca presented data from MCL and CLL clinical trials at the aforementioned ASH meeting. Results were presented in MCL from the open-label, single-arm Phase II ACE-LY-004 clinical trial, which served as the basis for the approval. The data demonstrated an objective response rate of 81%, with a complete response rate of 40%.

The data shown in the table above are as per the 2014 Lugano classification response criteria for non-Hodgkin lymphoma; high concordance was observed between investigator-assessed and independent review committee-assessed overall response and complete response rates, respectively.
In CLL, data from the Phase Ib/II ACE-CL-003 clinical trial and updated results from the Phase I/II ACE-CL-001 clinical trial that are testing Calquence in combination and alone for the treatment of CLL in multiple treatment settings were also presented. In the ACE-CL-003 trial, the combination of Calquence and obinutuzumab demonstrated an objective response rate (the primary endpoint) of 95% for the 19 patients in the treatment-naïve cohort and 92% in the 26 patients with relapsed or refractory CLL. Additionally, the complete response rate was 16% for treatment-naïve patients and 8% for previously-treated patients. Longer-term safety follow-up of the Calquence monotherapy ACE-CL-001 trial was also presented where safety (primary endpoint) and efficacy (secondary endpoint) data of the full-trial cohort of 134 patients with relapsed or refractory CLL was shown, with a median time on trial and follow-up of 24.5 months.
CV and metabolic diseases (CVMD) are key areas of focus for AstraZeneca as the Company sets the challenge to better understand how its portfolio of medicines might be used to help address multiple risk factors or co-morbidities across CVMD. Today, AstraZeneca is delivering life-changing results in the main CV-disease areas and their complications. AstraZeneca is investing in the science to demonstrate CV and mortality benefits by slowing the underlying progression of CV-related disease and protecting the organs of the CV system. Ultimately, AstraZeneca is looking to do more than just slow CV-related disease, by modifying or even halting the natural course of the disease itself and regenerate organs.
The net result is a strong, continued commitment to new CVMD treatment options that have the potential to deliver improved outcomes to hundreds of millions of patients across the globe.

In the period, the Company announced the initiation of a new Brilinta outcomes trial, THALES; the decision to initiate another stroke trial followed the encouraging trend data seen in the prior SOCRATES trial. The THALES trial will evaluate the safety and efficacy of 30-day treatment with Brilinta vs. placebo, both in addition to aspirin, for reducing stroke and death in patients who have already suffered an acute ischaemic stroke or high-risk transient ischaemic attack in the preceding 24 hours. During the period, the first patient was dosed in the THALES trial.
b) Farxiga ( diabetes )
During the period, top-line results from the ongoing DEPICT clinical programme, exploring the use of Farxiga in type-1 diabetes, became available in-house. These results from the DEPICT-1 52-week and DEPICT-2 24-week trial data demonstrated significant and clinically-relevant reductions from baseline in HbA1c, weight reductions and lowered total daily insulin dosing, compared to placebo at both the 5mg and 10mg dose. The safety profile of Farxiga in the DEPICT-1 52 week and DEPICT-2 24 week trials was similar to the known safety profile of Farxiga in patients with type-2 diabetes, with the exception of a higher proportion of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) events in Farxiga-treated patients vs. placebo within these type-1 diabetes trials. Further analysis of the data is required, along with the 52 week results of the DEPICT-2 trial.
During the period, the Company also received top-line results for DERIVE, a trial designed to evaluate the glycemic efficacy and renal safety of Farxiga in patients with type-2 diabetes and moderate renal impairment who have inadequate glycaemic control. The top-line results showed that, in patients with type-2 diabetes and chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3A, treatment with Farxiga for 24 weeks resulted in clinically-relevant and statistically-significant improvements in glycemic control. Farxiga was well tolerated, with no imbalances in adverse events (AEs) or serious adverse events or no new safety signals in the overall safety summary. Specifically, there were no AEs of hypoglycaemia, DKA or fractures reported in the trial. As these were the initial data, additional sensitivity analyses and safety evaluations are being conducted.
c) Bydureon (type-2 diabetes )
In the period, the EMA approved the use of Bydureon with basal insulin based on the results of the DURATION-7 clinical trial. The decision followed a positive recommendation in October 2017 from the Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP). The DURATION-7 trial assessed the efficacy and safety of Bydureon vs. placebo when added to titrated basal insulin with or without metformin in patients with uncontrolled type-2 diabetes over 28 weeks.
d) ZS-9 ( sodium zirconium cyclosilicate ) (hyperkalaemia)
During the period, the US FDA accepted the Class II regulatory resubmission for ZS-9 following the progress the Company has made in addressing the deficiencies identified during previous inspections of the dedicated manufacturing facility in Texas.
During the period, the CHMP reiterated its previous positive opinion and recommended the granting of a marketing authorisation for ZS-9 in the EU, for the treatment of hyperkalaemia. A positive opinion was provided in February 2017; the opinion was, however, suspended following concerns relating to the aforementioned manufacturing deficiencies. On the basis of recent inspection findings, the Committee reiterated its original opinion in January 2018.
e) Roxadustat (anaemia)
During the period, the Company and its partner FibroGen Inc. (Fibrogen) announced that roxadustat was granted priority review by the China FDA. The Company anticipates a regulatory decision in H2 2018 based on the data from two Fibrogen-led Phase III trials, conducted in China, that met their primary efficacy endpoints in January 2017. If approved, roxadustat will be a first-in-class medicine, with China being the first approval country, ahead of other major markets.

3 End-Stage Renal Disease.
AstraZeneca's Respiratory focus is aimed at transforming the treatment of asthma and COPD through combination inhaled therapies, biologics for the unmet medical needs of specific patient populations and an early pipeline focused on disease modification.
The growing range of medicines includes up to four anticipated launches between 2017 and 2020; of these, Bevespi and Fasenra are already benefitting patients. The capability in inhalation technology spans both pressurised, metered-dose inhalers and dry-powder inhalers to serve patient needs, as well as the innovative Aerosphere Delivery Technology, a focus of AstraZeneca's future-platform development for respiratory-disease combination therapies.
a) Symbicort (asthma)
During the period, the US FDA approved updates to the Symbicort labelling, including removal of the boxed warning for Symbicort and other ICS/LABA medicines for serious asthma-related outcomes. The update followed a 2011 post-marketing requirement from the US FDA, which required all manufacturers of LABA medicines to further evaluate their safety when used in combination with ICS for the treatment of asthma. The agency analysed four clinical trials involving over 42,000 patients and the results did not show a significant increase in the risk of serious asthma-related events (hospitalisation, intubations and death) with an ICS/LABA fixed-dose combination, compared with ICS alone.
b) Tudorza (COPD)
On 4 December 2017, AstraZeneca announced positive top-line results of the Phase IV ASCENT trial for Tudorza, a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA), in patients with moderate to very severe COPD, with a history of CV disease and/or significant CV risk factors.
The US FDA required data from the ASCENT trial as a post-marketing requirement to evaluate major adverse CV events for up to three years with aclidinium bromide, the active ingredient in Tudorza. The trial included more than 3,600 patients from Canada and the US and demonstrated a reduction in exacerbations and CV safety. A full analysis of the data is ongoing and results will be presented at a forthcoming medical meeting. AstraZeneca intends to submit an sNDA for an expanded Tudorza label.
c) Fasenra (benralizumab) (severe, uncontrolled asthma)
On 15 November 2017, the Company announced that the US FDA had approved Fasenra as a new medicine for patients with severe asthma aged 12 years and older and with an eosinophilic phenotype.
On 10 January 2018, the EMA approved Fasenra as an add-on maintenance treatment in adult patients with severe, inadequately-controlled eosinophilic asthma, despite high-dose inhaled corticosteroids plus LABA. The approvals were based on results from the WINDWARD programme, including the pivotal Phase III exacerbation trials SIROCCO and CALIMA, plus the Phase III oral corticosteroid (OCS)-sparing trial, ZONDA. Regulatory decisions are anticipated in several other jurisdictions in H1 2018.
On 19 January 2018, the Company announced that the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare had approved Fasenra as an add-on treatment for bronchial asthma in patients who continue to experience asthma exacerbations, despite treatment with high-dose inhaled corticosteroid and other asthma controller(s).
During the period, the Phase III GRECO trial met its primary endpoint, showing that patients and caregivers could self-administer Fasenra with an autoinjector. GRECO was a multicentre, open-label trial designed to assess the functionality and reliability of a single use autoinjector of Fasenra, administered subcutaneously in an at-home setting with monitoring of the autoinjector performance after use. The device performed as expected during the clinical trial.
d) Tralokinumab (asthma)
During the period, AstraZeneca decided to discontinue the development of tralokinumab, an investigational anti-IL-13 human immunoglobulin-G4 monoclonal antibody, in severe, uncontrolled asthma. The decision followed the publication of results of the Phase III programme, in which the primary endpoint of a significant reduction in the annual asthma exacerbation rate was not met in the two pivotal trials, STRATOS 1 and STRATOS 2. In an OCS-sparing trial, TROPOS, tralokinumab did not achieve a statistically-significant reduction in OCS use when added to the standard of care, in patients dependent on OCS.
e) PT010 (COPD)
On 26 January 2018, AstraZeneca announced the top-line results of the pivotal Phase III KRONOS trial for PT010, a potential triple-combination therapy (budesonide/glycopyrronium/formoterol fumarate) for the treatment of moderate to very severe COPD. In the trial, PT010 significantly improved lung function compared to PT009 (budesonide/formoterol fumarate), Bevespi (glycopyrronium/formoterol fumarate) and Symbicort Turbuhaler (budesonide/formoterol fumarate). AstraZeneca anticipates presentation of the results at a forthcoming medical meeting and intends to make the first regulatory submission for PT010 in H2 2018.
During the period, the Phase III TELOS trial read out, which compared two doses of PT009 (budesonide/formoterol fumarate) to its individual components, PT005 (formoterol fumarate) and PT008 (budesonide), and to Symbicort. The trial assessed lung function in patients with moderate to very severe COPD to qualify PT009 as an active comparator in the PT010 clinical-trial programme.
PT009, PT005 and PT008 were all delivered using Aerosphere Delivery Technology. All primary endpoints were met, with the exception of the lung-function primary endpoint that compared low-dose PT009 to PT005. A full evaluation of the TELOS trial results is ongoing, and the Company intends to present the results at a forthcoming medical meeting.
f) Tezepelumab (asthma)
In November 2017, the Company and its partner Amgen Inc. initiated the Phase III PATHFINDER programme for tezepelumab. During the period, the first patient was enrolled in the first Phase III trial, NAVIGATOR. The decision to proceed with the programme was based on the results from the Phase IIb PATHWAY trial in patients with severe, uncontrolled asthma. Results from the trial were published in the New England Journal of Medicine and presented at the European Respiratory Society International Congress in September 2017.

1 BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preliminary announcement for the year ended 31 December 2017 has been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union (EU) and as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
The annual financial statements of the Group are prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the EU and as issued by the IASB. Except as noted below, the preliminary announcement has been prepared applying the accounting policies and presentation that were applied in the preparation of the Group's published consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016. From 1 January 2017 the Group early adopted the treatment of fair value changes arising from changes in own credit risk in IFRS 9 Financial Instruments. The impact was not significant.
We have revised the balance sheet presentation of deferred tax with effect from 1 January 2017 with no impact upon net deferred tax, the Group's net assets, the cash flow statement or the income statement. This presentation change has resulted in us showing gross, rather than net, deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities of a group entity. This change has been made as that entity has transactions that are subject to tax by two different taxation authorities and has the effect of separately disclosing the deferred tax effects for each country. The comparative balance sheet has not been revised for this presentational change. If the 31 December 2016 balances were presented in a comparable way the deferred tax assets would have been $2,093m. The deferred tax liabilities would have been $4,947m.
As disclosed in our 2016 Annual Report on Page 181, the Group has entered into a number of financial derivative transactions with commercial banks. The Group has agreements with some bank counterparties whereby the parties agree to post cash collateral, for the benefit of the other, equivalent to the market valuation of the derivative positions above a predetermined threshold. We have revised the balance sheet presentation of these collateral balances with effect from 1 January 2017, so that the cash collateral is included in cash and cash equivalents, with an offsetting liability presented in current interest-bearing loans and borrowings and the movement presented in movement in short-term borrowings in the statement of cash flows. This revision has no impact on the Group's net assets, or the income statement. The comparative balance sheet has not been revised for this presentational change. If the 31 December 2016 balances were presented in a comparable way the cash and cash equivalents balance would have been $5,260m. Current interest-bearing loans and borrowings would have been $2,629m, and current investments would have been $964m.
Following clarification by the IASB Interpretations Committee in September 2017, the Group has revised its presentation of interest and tax positions. Interest income and expense, which was previously presented in the tax charge in the income statement, is now presented in finance income and expense and corresponding assets and liabilities, which were previously presented as income tax receivables and payables in the balance sheet, are now presented in trade and other receivables and trade and other payables. This revision has no impact on the Group's net assets and cash flows, or retained profit. The Group has assessed this presentational change as not material for restatement and, therefore, the comparative income statement and balance sheets have not been revised for this presentational change. If the 31 December 2016 balances were presented in a comparable way, finance income and expense would have been $1,239m, the tax charge would have been $224m, income tax payables would have been $1,287m, and trade and other payables would have been $10,579m.
Legal proceedings
The information contained in Note 5 updates the disclosures concerning legal proceedings and contingent liabilities in the Group's Annual Report and Form 20-F Information 2016, the interim financial statements for the three months ended 31 March 2017, the interim financial statements for the three months ended 30 June 2017 and the interim financial statements for the three months ended 30 September 2017.
Going concern
The Group has considerable financial resources available. As at 31 December 2017 the Group has $4.1bn in financial resources (cash balances of $3.3bn and undrawn committed bank facilities of $3.0bn which are available until April 2022, with only $2.2bn of debt due within one year). The Group's revenues are largely derived from sales of products which are covered by patents which provide a relatively high level of resilience and predictability to cash inflows, although our revenue is expected to continue to be significantly impacted by the expiry of patents over the medium term. In addition, government price interventions in response to budgetary constraints are expected to continue to adversely affect revenues in many of our mature markets. However, we anticipate new revenue streams from both recently launched medicines and products in development, and the Group has a wide diversity of customers and suppliers across different geographic areas. Consequently, the Directors believe that, overall, the Group is well placed to manage its business risks successfully.
On the basis of the above paragraph, the going concern basis has been adopted in these interim financial statements.
Financial information
The financial information contained in the preliminary announcement does not constitute statutory accounts of the Group for the years ended 31 December 2017 and 2016 but is derived from those accounts. Statutory accounts for 2016 have been delivered to the registrar of companies and those for 2017 will be delivered in due course. Those accounts have been reported on by the Group's auditors; their report was (i) unqualified, (ii) did not include a reference to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying their report, and (iii) did not contain a statement under section 498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006. The quarterly information for the three month period to 31 December 2017 and to 31 December 2016 has not been subject to audit.
2 RESTRUCTURING COSTS
Profit before tax for the year ended 31 December 2017 is stated after charging restructuring costs of $807m ($163m for the fourth quarter of 2017). These have been charged to profit as follows:

4 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
As detailed in the Group's most recent annual financial statements, our principal financial instruments consist of derivative financial instruments, other investments, trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, trade and other payables, and interest-bearing loans and borrowings. The accounting policies for financial instruments, including fair value measurement, can be found on pages 144 and 145 of the Company's Annual Report and Form 20-F Information 2016. There have been no significant new or revised accounting standards applied in the year ended 31 December 2017 and there have been no changes of significance to the categorisation or fair value hierarchy classification of our financial instruments. During the year, we revised the balance sheet presentation of cash collateral balances held with commercial bank counterparties, effective from 1 January 2017 (see Note 1).
Financial instruments measured at fair value include $1,230m of other investments, $1,247m of loans, and $504m of derivatives as at 31 December 2017. The total fair value of interest-bearing loans and borrowings at 31 December 2017 which have a carrying value of $17,807m in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, was $19,280m. Contingent consideration liabilities arising on business combinations have been classified under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy and movements in fair value are shown below:

5 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
AstraZeneca is involved in various legal proceedings considered typical to its business, including litigation and investigations relating to product liability, commercial disputes, infringement of intellectual property rights, the validity of certain patents, anti-trust law and sales and marketing practices. The matters discussed below constitute the more significant developments since publication of the disclosures concerning legal proceedings in the Company's Annual Report and Form 20-F Information 2016, the interim financial statements for the three months ended 31 March 2017, the interim financial statements for the three months ended 30 June 2017, and the interim financial statements for the three months ended 30 September 2017 (the Disclosures). Unless noted otherwise below or in the Disclosures, no provisions have been established in respect of the claims discussed below.
As discussed in the Disclosures, for the majority of claims in which AstraZeneca is involved it is not possible to make a reasonable estimate of the expected financial effect, if any, that will result from ultimate resolution of the proceedings. In these cases, AstraZeneca discloses information with respect only to the nature and facts of the cases but no provision is made.
In cases that have been settled or adjudicated, or where quantifiable fines and penalties have been assessed and which are not subject to appeal, or where a loss is probable and we are able to make a reasonable estimate of the loss, we record the loss absorbed or make a provision for our best estimate of the expected loss.
The position could change over time and the estimates that we have made and upon which we have relied in calculating these provisions are inherently imprecise. There can, therefore, be no assurance that any losses that result from the outcome of any legal proceedings will not exceed the amount of the provisions that have been booked in the accounts. The major factors causing this uncertainty are described more fully in the Disclosures and herein.
AstraZeneca has full confidence in, and will vigorously defend and enforce, its intellectual property.
Matters disclosed in respect of the fourth quarter of 2017 and to 2 February 2018.

In order, among other things, to utilise the 'safe harbour' provisions of the US Private Securities Litigation Reform Act 1995, we are providing the following cautionary statement:
This document contains certain forward-looking statements with respect to the operations, performance and financial condition of the Group, including, among other things, statements about expected revenues, margins, earnings per share or other financial or other measures. Although we believe our expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, any forward-looking statements, by their very nature, involve risks and uncertainties and may be influenced by factors that could cause actual outcomes and results to be materially different from those predicted. The forward-looking statements reflect knowledge and information available at the date of preparation of this document and AstraZeneca undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements. We identify the forward-looking statements by using the words 'anticipates', 'believes', 'expects', 'intends' and similar expressions in such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements, certain of which are beyond our control, include, among other things: the loss or expiration of, or limitations to, patents, marketing exclusivity or trademarks, or the risk of failure to obtain and enforce patent protection; effects of patent litigation in respect of IP rights; the impact of any delays in the manufacturing, distribution and sale of any of our products; the impact of any failure by third parties to supply materials or services; the risk of failure of outsourcing; the risks associated with manufacturing biologics; the risk that R&D will not yield new products that achieve commercial success; the risk of delay to new product launches; the risk that new products do not perform as we expect; the risk that strategic alliances and acquisitions, including licensing and collaborations, will be unsuccessful; the risks from pressures resulting from generic competition; the impact of competition, price controls and price reductions; the risks associated with developing our business in emerging markets; the risk of illegal trade in our products; the difficulties of obtaining and maintaining regulatory approvals for products; the risk that regulatory approval processes for biosimilars could have an adverse effect on future commercial prospects; the risk of failure to successfully implement planned cost reduction measures through productivity initiatives and restructuring programmes; the risk of failure of critical processes affecting business continuity; economic, regulatory and political pressures to limit or reduce the cost of our products; failure to achieve strategic priorities or to meet targets, expectations, guidance or indications; the risk of substantial adverse litigation/government investigation claims and insufficient insurance coverage; the risk of substantial product liability claims; the risk of failure to adhere to applicable laws, rules and regulations; the risk of failure to adhere to applicable laws, rules and regulations relating to anti-competitive behaviour; the impact of increasing implementation and enforcement of more stringent anti-bribery and anti-corruption legislation; taxation risks; exchange rate fluctuations; the risk of an adverse impact of a sustained economic downturn; political and socio-economic conditions; the risk of environmental liabilities; the risk of occupational health and safety liabilities; the risk associated with pensions liabilities; the impact of failing to attract and retain key personnel and to successfully engage with our employees; the risk of misuse of social medial platforms and new technology; and the risk of failure of information technology and cybercrime.
