Cipla delivered a strong Q1 FY25 with revenue of INR 6,694 crore (+7% YoY) and EBITDA margin of 25.6% (+154 bps YoY), driven by a favorable product mix and calibrated pricing. North America hit an all-time high of $250 million (+13% YoY), supported by Lanreotide generic launch and Albuterol market share gains to 17%. India branded prescription grew 10% YoY, while trade generic transition was completed, impacting near-term growth. PAT stood at INR 1,178 crore (17.6% of sales). Management guided EBITDA margin of 24.5%-25.5% for FY25 and expects U.S. sustainable run rate of $235-240 million. Key risks include Goa facility FDA classification (six 483 observations) and potential price erosion in Albuterol with new entrants.
सिप्ला ने पहली तिमाही (अप्रैल-जून 2024) में अच्छा प्रदर्शन किया। कंपनी की कमाई 6,694 करोड़ रुपये रही, जो पिछले साल से 7% ज्यादा है। मुनाफा (EBITDA) 25.6% रहा, जो पिछले साल से 1.54% बेहतर है। इसकी वजह अच्छा उत्पाद मिश्रण और सही कीमतें थीं। अमेरिका में बिक्री 250 मिलियन डॉलर (सबसे ज्यादा) पहुंची, जो 13% बढ़ी। भारत में ब्रांडेड दवाओं की बिक्री 10% बढ़ी। कंपनी का शुद्ध मुनाफा 1,178 करोड़ रुपये रहा। आगे साल भर में मुनाफा 24.5% से 25.5% रहने का अनुमान है। अमेरिका में हर तिमाही 235-240 मिलियन डॉलर की बिक्री होने की उम्मीद है। जोखिम: गोवा फैक्ट्री पर FDA की नजर है और एल्ब्युटेरोल दवा की कीमत गिर सकती है।
