Hikma highlighted as "one to watch" in 2008

14 January 2008

Hikma Pharmaceuticals, a Jordanian drugmaker listed in London, UK, has been selected as one of the top six stocks to watch by the Daily Telegraph's Simon Goodley in his City Diary Hot Gossip column. The firm's growth rate, which has seen it double in size every four years, is expected to continue as governments in key markets in the Middle East and North Africa focus on increasing health care spending.

Last month, Hikma forecast that it would achieve 40% revenue growth for the full year and organic growth, excluding the acquisitions of Ribosepharm, Thymoorgan and Alkan Pharma, of around 20%. Financial results for the year ended December 31, 2007, are due on March 12.
