✦ AI-Generated from Full Transcript

Biocon Group delivered a strong revenue-led Q1 FY24, with consolidated revenue up 59% YoY to INR 3,516 crore, driven by the Viatris biosimilars acquisition and robust growth across all segments. Biosimilars revenue more than doubled, while Syngene grew 25% and Generics 15%. Core EBITDA margin was 28%, but reported EBITDA margin improved 100bps YoY to 23%. PAT stood at INR 101 crore, impacted by higher depreciation and interest from the acquisition. Management highlighted strong market share gains for key biosimilars (Semglee 12%, Fulphila 16%) and guided for core EBITDA margins in biosimilars to return to mid-thirties by year-end. The integration of Viatris' biosimilars business is ahead of schedule, with all markets expected to be integrated by fiscal year-end. Key risks include slower-than-expected Hulio uptake and regulatory delays for insulin aspart and bevacizumab approvals.
