Hikma Pharmaceuticals Share News (HIK)

Ronald Goode, a non-Executive Director of Hikma Pharmaceuticals, has disposed of 5,700 shares at 983.00p each.The £56,031 sale comes less than a week after the company upgraded its 2013 revenue growth forecast following a strong start to the year. In an announcment released May 16th, the group told investors it expects revenue to rise 13% this year, up from its previous guidance of 10%, driven by the performance of Branded and Injectables and Generics businesses in the year-to-date. The Branded and Injectables unit is on track to meet the firm's full-year guidance, while the Generics arm is continuing to benefit from its doxycycline product which is delivering revenue ahead of forecasts. Branded revenue is expected to increase 11% in 2013, with a slight improvement in adjusted operating margin. Goode now owns 17,000 shares. Top Director BuysSymphony International Holdings Ltd.
