0256 GMT - When asked on an analyst call why CSL thinks that its seasonal flu-vaccine revenues will stabilize, CEO Paul McKenzie replied that the company has been investing in the pediatric segment. He was speaking after the company announced that it would spin off its flu-vaccine business Seqirus and list it separately in Australia. A couple of years ago, CSL's share of the pediatric segment was zero, but now the company is expecting to soon achieve about 20% share, he said, adding that most of the vaccine fatigue is in the 18-64-year-old category. The stock is down 13% following annual earnings and the spinoff plan. (mike.cherney@wsj.com)
