Segmental Analysis
Global Generics (GG)
Revenues from GG segment at Rs. 31.3 billion. Year-on-year growth of 4%, primarily driven by contributions from Emerging Markets, India and favorable forex. Sequentially the sales grew by 3%.
· | Revenues from North America at Rs. 14.8 billion. Year-on-year decline of 8%. Sequential growth of 4%, aided by higher volume offtake, new launches and favorable forex offset by higher price erosion in some of the key molecules. |
During the quarter, 10 new products were launched and we have filed 3 ANDAs with the USFDA.
As of 31st Dec 2018, cumulatively 103 generic filings are pending for approval with the USFDA (100 ANDAs and 3 NDAs under 505(b)(2) route). Of these 100 ANDAs, 59 are Para IVs, and we believe 33 have ‘First to File’ status.
· | Revenues from Emerging Markets at Rs. 7.7 billion. Year-on-year growth is 31%, primarily on account of new launches, traction in new markets and improved volume offtake in our existing markets. Sequential growth is 3%. |
- | Revenues from Russia at Rs. 4.1 billion. Year-on-year growth of 22%, driven by both new launches and improvement in base business, marginally offset by unfavorable forex. |
- | Revenues from other CIS countries and Romania market at Rs. 1.4 billion. Year-on-year growth of 45%, driven by new products and volume uptake in the base business. |
- | Revenues from Rest of World (RoW) territories at Rs. 2.2 billion. Year-on-year growth of 43%, primarily driven by new products, traction in new markets and volume uptake in base business. |
· | Revenues from India at Rs. 6.7 billion. Year-on-year growth of 10%, primarily driven by volume traction and new products. Sequentially the revenues declined by 2%. |
· | Revenues from Europe at Rs. 2.0 billion. Year-on-year growth of 1%, primarily on account of new products and volume uptake largely offset by higher price erosion in some of the key molecules. Sequential growth is 6%. |
Pharmaceutical Services and Active Ingredients (PSAI)
· | Revenues from PSAI at Rs. 5.9 billion, with year-on-year growth of 9% and sequential decline of 2%. The YoY growth is largely driven by custom pharmaceutical services business. |
Proprietary Products (PP)
· | Revenues from PP at Rs. 735 million, with year-on-year decline of 66% and sequential decline of 5%. The YoY decline is largely due to one-time milestone income of Rs. 1.3 billion recorded during Q3 FY18. |
Income Statement Highlights:
· | Gross profit margin at 53.9%. |
- | Declined by ~240 bps over that of previous year and by ~110 bps sequentially |
- | Decline in gross profit margins both year-on-year and sequentially is largely on account of price erosion in some of our key molecules in the US partly offset by favorable foreign exchange and better manufacturing overhead leverage. |
- | Gross profit margin for GG and PSAI business segments are at 57.6% and 30.8% respectively. |
· | SG&A expenses at Rs. 12.0 billion, remained flat on a year-on-year basis and declined by 3% sequentially. Spend control is largely on account of cost optimization and productivity improvement initiatives. |
· | R&D expenses at Rs. 3.7 billion, year-on-year decline of 21%. Decline is largely on account of timing variation in development related activities coupled with productivity improvement measures. As % to revenues- Q3 FY19: 9.5% | Q2 FY 19: 10.8% | Q3 FY18: 12.3%. |
· | Other (income)/expense, net includes gain of Rs. 423 million on account of sale of the API business manufacturing unit located at Jeedimetla, Hyderabad. |
· | Net finance expense at Rs. 13 million compared to net finance income of Rs. 851 million in Q3 FY18. The movement is largely due to higher income from investments, in the previous year. |
· | Profit after Tax at Rs. 4.9 billion. Effective tax rate for the quarter is 16.4%. Lower rate is primarily on account of reduction of the federal income tax rate from 35% to 21% in the United States and claim of deduction of an item in the current quarter, which was previously disallowed for tax purpose. |
· | Diluted earnings per share is at Rs. 29.21 |
· | Capital expenditure is at Rs. 1.5 billion. |
