Revenue analysis (Segment wise)
Sales for the quarter is Rs. 43.8 billion with a year-on-year growth of 14%. Sequentially, it has declined by 9%. In Q2 FY 20, we had out-licensed 2 neuro products of the proprietary products business and recognized a revenue of Rs.7.2 billion. Adjusted for this, the sequential quarter growth is 7%, and is highest ever quarterly sales from operations, without any one-off item.
Global Generics (GG)
Revenues from GG segment at Rs.35.9 billion. Year-on-year growth of 15%, primarily driven by Europe, Emerging Markets and India. Sequential growth of 9%, primarily driven by NAG, Europe and EM.
• Revenues from North America at Rs.16.0 billion. Year-on-year revenues grew by 8%. Sequential growth of 12%, largely on account of higher volumes in some of our key molecules partly offset by price erosion in some of our key molecules. We launched five new products (Bortezomib injection, Doxercalciferol, Deferasirox dispersable tabs, Deferasirox film coated tabs, Sodium Nitroprusside injection) during the quarter.
As of 31st December 2019, cumulatively 101 generic filings are pending for approval with the USFDA (99 ANDAs and 2 NDAs under 505(b)(2) route). Of these 99 ANDAs, 53 are Para IVs out of which we believe 32 have ‘First to File’ status.
• Revenues from Emerging Markets at Rs.9.2 billion. Year-on-year growth is 19%. Sequential growth is 11%.
– Revenues from Russia at Rs.4.9 billion. Year-on-year growth of 20%. Growth primarily driven by increase in volumes coupled with better realizations in some of the key molecules.
– Revenues from other CIS countries and Romania market at Rs.1.8 billion. Year-on-year growth of 26% largely driven by new products and volume traction.
– Revenues from Rest of World (RoW) territories at Rs.2.5 billion. Year-on-year growth of 12%, primarily driven by new products coupled with volume traction partly offset by price erosions in some of the key molecules.
• Revenues from India at Rs.7.6 billion. Year-on-year growth of 13%, driven by new products, improved realizations in base business and volume traction. Sequential growth is 2% due to improved realizations and launch of new products.
• Revenues from Europe at Rs.3.1 billion. Year-on-year growth of 52%, primarily on account of new products and volume traction in base business partly offset by lower realizations as few key molecules entered tenders. Sequential growth is 12% due to improvement in the sales of base business.
Pharmaceutical Services and Active Ingredients (PSAI)
• Revenues from PSAI at Rs.6.9 billion. Year-on-year growth of 16% largely driven by increase in volumes of API business. There is a sequential decline of 3% due to lower volumes pick up compared to Q2.
Proprietary Products Segment (PP)
• Revenues from PP at Rs.0.2 billion, as against Rs.0.7 billion in Q3 FY 19 and Rs.7.4 billion in Q2 FY 20, as we had out-licensed our commercialized derma products in Q4 FY 19 and commercialized neuro products in Q2 FY 20.
Income Statement Highlights:
• Gross profit margin at 54.1% vs. Q3 FY 19 margin of 53.9% and Q2 FY 20 margin of 57.5%
– Gross profit margin for GG and PSAI business segments are at 58.2% and 30.0% respectively.
– Year on year gross profit margins marginally improved on account of new products contribution with better margins and manufacturing leverage offset by higher price erosion in some of the key molecules in the US, Europe and RoW markets.
– Sequentially there is a decline in margin as during the last quarter we recognized revenue from the out-licencing of PP Neuro products. On a like to like basis, the margins improved by ~260 bps due to manufacturing leverage and business mix.
• SG&A expenses at Rs.12.7 billion, an increase of 5% on a year-on-year basis and decline of 4% sequentially. SG&A as % to sales improved by 240 bps on a year-on-year basis and on a like-to-like basis leverage improved sequentially as well.
• In December, 2019 there has been a generic launch and an authorized generic launch for the product Nuvaring®, which has led to a considerable erosion in the value of this product for us, and accordingly we have taken an impairment charge of Rs.11.1 billion ($ 156.5 mn). In addition to this, considering the current market dynamics, we have taken an impairment charge of Rs.2.1 billion on the intangibles pertaining to other products. In total, we have taken an impairment of Rs.13.2 billion on the intangible assets for this quarter. In Q2 FY 20, we had an impairment charge of Rs.3.6 billion.
• R&D expenses at Rs.3.9 billion. As % to Revenues- Q3 FY20: 9.0% | Q2 FY 20: 7.6% | Q3 FY19: 9.5%. Focus continues on building healthy pipeline of products across our markets.
• Other operating income at Rs.228 million compared to Rs.681 million in Q3 FY19. Previous year includes Rs.423 million on account of sale of API business manufacturing unit located at Jeedimetla, Hyderabad.
• Net Finance income at Rs.419 million compared to net finance expense of Rs.13 million in Q3 FY19. The increase is primarily on account of foreign exchange gain in current quarter compared to loss in Q3 FY19.
• Loss before Tax at Rs.5.3 billion, loss is primarily on account of impairment of intangible assets. Excluding impairment, profit before tax is at Rs.7.9 billion.
• The net tax for the quarter is at Rs.0.42 billion.
• Diluted loss per share is at Rs.34.4
• Capital expenditure is at Rs.1.2 billion.
