SEGMENTAL ANALYSIS

Global Generics

Revenues are at LOGO 31.7 billion, year-on-year growth of 8%, primarily driven by Branded Markets.

 

  Revenues from North America at LOGO 16.8 billion, year-on-year growth of 4%. Sequential growth in constant currency at 17%, primarily on account of:

 

    Sustained performance of FY14 ‘limited competition’ launches namely decitabine, azacitidine, and divalproex sodium ER.

 

    Progress on market share expansion of key molecules namely ziprasidone, amlodipine-atorvastatin and sumatriptan auto injector.

 

    6 new products launched during the quarter.

 

    2 ANDA filings during the quarter. Cumulatively, 68 ANDAs are pending for approval with the USFDA of which 43 are Para IVs, and we believe 13 to have ‘First To File’ status.

 

  Revenues from Emerging Markets at LOGO 8.6 billion, year-on-year growth of 16%.

 

    Revenues from Russia at LOGO 4.0 billion, year-on-year decline of 9% primarily on account of the Rouble depreciation. In constant currency, the growth is ~27% on the back of healthy sales.

 

    Emerging Markets, Ex-Russia at LOGO 4.6 billion recorded year-on-year growth of 51% primarily driven by strong performance in Venezuela on the back of continued volume upsides.

 

  Revenues from India for at LOGO 4.3 billion, year-on-year growth of 11%.

INCOME STATEMENT HIGHLIGHTS:

 

  Gross profit margin at 58.2% registered ~230 basis points decline vs Q3 FY14 primarily on account of unfavourable currency impact. Gross profit margin for GG and PSAI business segments are at 65.9% and 17.2% respectively.

 

  SG&A expenses, excluding impairment adjustments, marginally grew by 2%. This increase is largely due to annual increments, additional manpower deployment in the past 12 months and other sales and marketing spend for events specific to this quarter offset by the favourable impact of Emerging Market currency depreciation.

 

  R&D expenses at LOGO 4.3 billion, year-on-year growth of 45%. 11.2% of revenues in Q3 FY15 as compared to 8.4% of revenues in Q3 FY14. The increase is in line with our planned scale-up in development activities.

 

  Consequent to the decline in the recoverable amounts of certain product / customer contracts related intangible assets, an impairment charge of LOGO 534 million was recorded during the quarter.

 

  Net Finance income at LOGO 1,013 million compared to LOGO 15 million in Q3 FY14. The increase is on account of :

 

    Incremental forex benefit of LOGO 604 million

 

    Incremental profit on sales of investments of LOGO 174 million

 

    Net increase in interest income of LOGO 221 million

 

  EBITDA at LOGO 10.5 billion, year-on-year growth of 5%; 27% of revenues.
