Future growth drivers – Onco High Potency APIs, CDMO ramp up, expansion into complex APIs and Iron compounds, pursuing 2nd source opportunities for top generic players, geographical expansion
Have added 4 high potency APIs to their portfolio. With this, their HP-APIs portfolio now stands at 21 molecules
Committed to high single digits revenue growth for full FY with steady margins. Looking at much better H2 performance
R&D expenses @ 3 pc of sales
Argentina business is seeing weakness due macro-economic conditions there. Plus there has been some production loss in Q2 where the Ankleshwar plant was not avlb for around 25 days. Hence the company has moderated its topline growth expectations from mid teens to high single digits
FY 26 should be a high growth year specially because of the two CDMO projects ( mentioned above ) going live. These two CDMO molecules should generate revenues of about 100 cr / yr. Plus the base business is doing well
Company is running at 90 pc capacity utilisation. May have to forego some lower margins business because of that
Capex tgt for full FY 25 @ 300-350 cr. Have already spent around 85 cr in H1
Chinese players are becoming very aggressive in the generic API mkts. However, the company is not impacted in a big way as > 80 pc of their sales come from regulated mkts
Disc: added recently, inclined to add more due steep fall in stock price, biased, not SEBI registered, not a buy/sell recommendation
