Revenue Analysis [Q1 FY24]
Global Generics (GG)
- Q1 FY24 revenue at Rs. 60.1 billion, YoY growth of 36% and QoQ growth of 11%. The growth was driven by North America, Emerging Markets and Europe.
North America
- Q1 FY24 revenue at Rs. 32 billion, YoY growth of 79% and QoQ growth of 26%. The growth was primarily on account of new product launches, continued momentum in existing products, favorable forex rates movement, partly offset by price erosion.
- During the quarter, we launched six new products in US and two in Canada. We also commercialized the generic prescription portfolio acquired from Mayne Pharma.
- During the quarter, we filed four new Abbreviated New Drug Applications (ANDAs) with the US Food and Drug Administration (USFDA). As of 30th June 2023, cumulatively 85 generic filings are pending for approval with the USFDA (82 ANDAs and 3 NDAs under 505(b)(2) route). Out of the pending 85 ANDAs, 43 are Para IVs, and we believe 17 have ‘First to File' status.
Europe
- Q1 FY24 revenue at Rs. 5.1 billion, YoY growth of 22% and QoQ growth of 2%. The growth was driven by momentum in the base business, new product launches and favorable forex rates movement, partly offset by price erosion.
India
- Q1 FY24 revenue at Rs. 11.5 billion, YoY decrease of 14% and QoQ decline of 11%. Excluding brand divestment income, sales of divested portfolio from base and NLEM related price reduction impact, India business registered a high single digit growth. This growth was mainly on account of increase in base business volumes.
Emerging Markets
- Q1 FY24 revenue from Emerging Markets at Rs. 11.6 billion, YoY growth of 28% and QoQ growth of 4%.
- Revenue from Russia for the quarter at Rs. 5.6 billion, YoY growth of 75% and QoQ growth of 9%. YoY growth was driven by uptick in base business, price increase and biosimilars. This was further aided by low base in previous year. QoQ growth was primarily driven by increase in volumes of existing products.
- Revenue from other CIS countries and Romania for the year at Rs. 2.0 billion, YoY growth of 2% and QoQ decline of 14%. YoY growth, primarily on account of price increases on certain products, was offset with decline in base business volumes. QoQ decline was mainly on account of decline in volumes of existing products.
- Revenue from Rest of World (RoW) territories for the year at Rs. 4.0 billion, YoY growth of 1% and QoQ growth of 8%. YoY growth, led by new product launches, was offset by price erosion and lower base business volumes. QoQ growth was mainly driven by new product launches and increase in volumes of existing products.
Pharmaceutical Services and Active Ingredients (PSAI)
- Q1 FY24 revenue at Rs. 6.7 billion, with a decline of 5% YoY and 14% QoQ. YoY decline was mainly attributable to lower volume pick up by customers for some of our existing products, partly offset with favourable forex rate movement. QoQ decline was mainly attributable to decrease in sales volumes of certain of our existing products.
Income Statement Highlights:
-
Q1 FY24 gross margin at 58.7% (GG: 63.9%, PSAI: 15.0%). Gross margin increased by ~880 bps YoY and by ~150 bps QoQ. The improvement in gross margin was primarily driven by favorable product mix and higher manufacturing leverage partly offset by benefit from brand divestment income during previous year and price erosion in certain products. QoQ growth was primarily on account of favourable product mix partly offset by brand divestment income benefit during preceding quarter.
- Selling, general & administrative (SG&A) expenses for Q1 FY24 at Rs. 17.7 billion, YoY increase of 14% and declined by 2% QoQ. The YoY SG&A spend increase is in-line with business growth and is largely on account of investment in sales & marketing, digitalization and other business initiatives.
- Research & development (R&D) expenses in Q1 FY24 at Rs. 5.0 billion. As % to Revenues – Q1FY24: 7.4% | Q4FY23: 8.5% | Q1FY23: 8.3%. We continue our focus on investing in R&D to build a healthy pipeline of new products across our markets for both small molecules and biosimilars.
- Other operating income for Q1 FY24 at Rs. 0.8 billion compared to Rs. 6 billion in Q1 FY23. Other operating income during the current quarter included settlement income of Rs. 0.5 billion in Canada relating to the generic abiraterone. The net other income in previous year included settlement income of Rs. 5.6 billion relating to the generic buprenorphine and naloxone sublingual film.
- Net Finance income for Q1 FY24 at Rs.0.8 billion compared to Rs. 2.3 billion in Q1 FY24. The higher income during previous year was primarily on account of higher foreign exchange gain.
- Profit before Tax for Q1 FY24 at Rs. 18.5 billion, YoY growth of 26%. QoQ growth of 39%
- Profit after Tax for Q1 FY24 at Rs. 14.0 billion. The effective tax rate for the quarter has been 24.0% as compared to 19.0% in Q1 FY23. The tax rate was lower in pervious year primarily on account of recognition of unrecognized deferred tax assets on operating tax losses.
- Diluted earnings per share for Q1 FY24 is Rs. 84.22.
Other Highlights:
- EBITDA for Q1 FY24 at Rs. 21.4 billion and the EBITDA margin is 31.7%.
- Capital expenditure for Q1 FY24 at Rs. 3.6 billion.
- Free cash-flow for Q1 FY24 at Rs. 6.7 billion (before acquisition payout).
