Company Analysis
From a global leader in anti-tuberculosis (TB) and other infectious
diseases to one of the fastest growing prescription companies in the US,
Lupin has come a long way to emerge as a leading Indian generic
exporter. Established in 1968, the company adapted well as per the
changed industry dynamics like other peers such as Sun, Dr Reddys,
Ranbaxy and Cipla. During this journey, it changed focus in therapies -
from acute to chronic and also geographies, from domestic driven to
export oriented. It received USFDA approvals for two facilities-
Ankaleshwar and Mandideep way back in 1989. Besides this, the
company has been fairly active on the global M&A front. It has acquired
companies in Japan (significant acquisitions), Australia, Philippines and
South Africa. Similarly, the company also acquired small ticket but
lucrative brands in the US (Suprax, Antara, Locoid lotion, Inspira Chamber
and Alinia). Its latest acquisition, however, has been a complex injectable
technology based company (Nanomi) in the Netherlands. Infrastructure -
11 manufacturing facilities including two in Japan seven formulations
(three USFDA approved) and four APIs (two USFDA approved).

The current financial health of the company is the culmination of prudent


business decisions in the past. Over the last 10 years, revenues, EBITDA
and PAT have grown at a CAGR of 24%, 29% and 29%, respectively.
Considering more recent numbers, in FY12-16, revenue, EBITDA and PAT
have grown at a CAGR of 15%, 14% and 10% to | 14209 crore, | 3733
crore and | 2271 crore, respectively. Similarly, during the same period,
the R&D spend as a percentage of sales has gone up from 8.2% to 11.3%.

Going ahead, in the near term, we expect revenues, EBITDA and PAT to
grow at a CAGR of 16%, 17% and 19%, respectively, in FY16-19E.
However, from a long term perspective, we believe the company is well
poised to grow at a healthy rate given the strong US pipeline, vast
experience and good understanding of the US market, continued traction
in Indian branded formulations with higher chronic focus and
improvement in the Japanese market, which is perhaps the only
geography where there is a scope for improvement. On the R&D front, we
see the composition spend tilting towards NDDS, NCEs, biosimilars from
the current ANDA/NDA albeit gradually to prepare for the scenario
beyond 2020.

Lupin - SWOT Analysis


Strengths - Prudent geographical mix covering high opportunity
emerging markets as well as developed markets. Formidable US presence
with highest rank among Indian peers in the US generic prescriptions
space. One of the best working capital management in the industry with
strong return ratios and ever improving margins.

Weakness - The Japanese market still remains a low margin business.

Opportunities - In the US generics space, a lot of opportunities are


panning out in the oral contraceptives and respiratory space.

Threats - Increased USFDA scrutiny across the globe regarding cGMP


issues, pricing pressure due to client consolidation in the US, pricing
probe by the Department of Justice (DoJ) in the US, proposed tightening
by the new regime by adapting to the bidding process and imposition of
border adjustment tax on imported drugs in the US. Gavis like costly
acquisitions can stretch the balance sheet further if the product pipeline
fails to deliver the expected payback.

Valuation
Q2 numbers demonstrated strong gross margins and robust US growth
mainly due to Gavis consolidation, gGlumetza/gFortamate traction. The
overall profitability was impacted mainly due to higher R&D, forex loss
and new recruitments/capex at Gavis. However, with the Goa EIR (Indore
earlier), a major overhang has been neutralised and the company can
focus on the launches at a regular interval. The management is now
guiding for 30+ launches annually in the US in FY18. It expects the trend
to continue, going ahead. Ramp up at Gavis is also likely to support
launches. With one of the strongest pending pipelines in the US (142
pending approvals) at its disposal, the company is well poised to address
the pricing issue. India and Japan are likely to complement the US driven
growth. We remain upbeat about future prospects and maintain BUY with
a target price of | 1890 based on 22xFY19E EPS of | 85.7.
