Q1 FY18: Key Highlights

•

Consolidated Revenues at Rs.33.2 billion, year-on-year growth of 3%

•

Gross Profit Margin at 51.6%, declined ~460 bps over last year

Research & Development (R&D) spend at Rs.5.1 billion, 15.3% of Revenues

Commenting on the results, G V Prasad, Co-Chairman and CEO said “Our first quarter’s results of FY 18 have been below expectations. While headwinds in the form of price erosion due to U.S. customer consolidation continue, a lower contribution from new product launches in the U.S. and the GST implementation in India also impacted our performance.

On the positive side, we have progressed on our quality journey and have had several successful inspections. We continue to focus on strengthening our manufacturing & quality systems, revitalizing growth and creating a leaner and agile organization.”

Segmental Analysis

Global Generics (GG)

Revenues from GG segment are Rs.27.5 billion, grew 3% year-on-year. Growth primarily driven by higher volume uptake in Emerging Market and Europe and new launches across major markets. This was partially offset by price erosion in North America and channel de-stocking in India due to GST transition.

•

Revenues from North America at Rs.14.9 billion, declined 4% year-on-year. This is primarily on account of higher price erosion, increased competition in our key products namely Valganciclovir, Decitabine, Azacitidine etc. and discontinuation of the McNeil business. This was partially offset by contribution from new launches. During the quarter we launched 4 new products – Ezetimibe+Simvastatin, Liposomal Doxorubicin, Progesterone, and Bivalirudin injection.

As of 30^th June, 2017, cumulatively 99 generic filings are pending for approval with the USFDA (97 ANDAs and 2 NDAs under 505(b)(2) route). Of these 97 ANDAs, 59 are Para IVs out of which we believe 26 to have ‘First to File’ status.

•

Revenues from Emerging Markets at Rs.5.7 billion, grew 34% year-on-year.

•

Revenues from Russia at Rs.3.5 billion, grew 48% year-on-year in reporting currency and 31% in Ruble terms. Growth driven by higher improvement in base business and Rituximab supplies under the tender.

•

Revenues from other CIS countries and Romania market at Rs. 0.9 billion, grew by 28% year-on-year led by volume growth.

•

Revenues from Rest of World (RoW) territories at Rs.1.4 billion, grew by 13% year-on-year.

•

Revenues from India at Rs.4.7 billion, declined 10% year-on-year. Decline primarily on account of channel destocking during the transition to the GST regime.

•

Revenues from Europe at Rs.2.1 billion, grew by 28% year-on-year in reporting currency and 37% in constant currency. Growth driven by primarily on account of new launches and improvement in base business.

Pharmaceutical Services and Active Ingredients (PSAI)

•

Revenues from PSAI at Rs.4.7 billion, marginally declined 1% year-on-year.

•

During the quarter, 15 DMFs were filed globally of which 4 were in the US.

Income Statement Highlights:

•

Gross profit margin at 51.6% and declined by ~460 bps over that of previous year. This is primarily on account of (a) lower contribution from Domestic Formulations business consequent to GST transition and (b) lower realizations in our North America Generics business. Gross profit margin for Global Generics (GG) and PSAI business segments are at 57.7% and 11.5% respectively.

•

SG&A expenses at Rs.11.8 billion, decreased 4% year-on-year.

•

Research & development expenses at Rs.5.1 billion. As a % to sales R&D expenses stood at 15.3% as compared to 14.8% in Q1 FY17. Focus continues to build a sustainable revenue stream through a mix of simple and complex generics, biosimilars and differentiated products pipeline.

•

Net Finance income at Rs.221 million compared to the net finance income of Rs. 445 million in Q1FY17. Lower income of Rs.224 million is on account of:

•

Decrease in profit on sales of investments by Rs.3 million.

Net foreign exchange gain of Rs.10 million in the current quarter vs net foreign exchange gain of Rs.36 million in the previous year

•

Decrease in net interest income of Rs.195 million.
