Aurobindo Pharma delivered a steady Q2 FY25 with revenue of INR 7,796 crore (+8% YoY) and EBITDA margin of 20.1%, despite higher R&D costs and penicillin G ramp-up losses. PAT grew 8.6% YoY to INR 817 crore. Growth was driven by strong volume expansion in US oral generics (+9% YoY to $289M) and robust Europe performance (+19% YoY in INR terms). The injectable business faced supply chain headwinds at Unit 3, but management expects normalization by Q4. Penicillin G is on track for breakeven by Q4 FY25. Management reiterated FY25 EBITDA margin guidance of 21%-22%, implying a stronger H2. Key risks include sustained high R&D spend for biosimilar trials and potential freight cost volatility from Red Sea disruptions.
ऑरोबिंदो फार्मा ने दूसरी तिमाही में अच्छा प्रदर्शन किया। कंपनी की कमाई 7,796 करोड़ रुपये रही, जो पिछले साल से 8% ज्यादा है। मुनाफा 817 करोड़ रुपये रहा, जो 8.6% बढ़ा है। अमेरिका में जेनेरिक दवाओं की बिक्री 9% और यूरोप में 19% बढ़ी। हालांकि, रिसर्च पर ज्यादा खर्च और पेनिसिलिन जी के उत्पादन में शुरुआती घाटे के बावजूद कंपनी का मुनाफा मार्जिन 20.1% रहा। कंपनी को उम्मीद है कि साल के अंत तक पेनिसिलिन जी घाटे से बाहर आ जाएगी। पूरे साल के लिए मुनाफा मार्जिन 21-22% रहने का अनुमान है। मुख्य चुनौतियां रिसर्च पर ज्यादा खर्च और लाल सागर के रास्ते में माल ढुलाई की लागत में उतार-चढ़ाव हैं।
