Company is sitting on a lot of operating leverage as its US facilities are under-utilised. As their utilisation goes up, return ratios, margins should get a good bump
Fall in API sales is due to slower off take by a few customers. Should correct in 2-3 Qtrs
Aim to launch 05 new products in US in Q4 followed by 10-15 launches in FY 25. These launches should help take the plant utilisation to higher levels
Company’s R&D focus these days is greater on Injectables vs Oral solids, Derma products
Company is working on GLP-1 products. These are complex generics. Launches are some time away
Company feels it has $ 230 million/yr kind of base business in US ( unless there r some major disruptions ). The Mkt is looking better now vs the last few yrs. The US business is already profitable
