2-Minute Summary
Cipla delivered a solid Q4 FY25 with revenue of INR 6,730 crore (+9% YoY) and EBITDA margin of 22.8% (+150bps YoY), driven by strong performance across One India (+8% YoY), North America ($221M quarterly revenue), and EMU (+16% YoY). PAT stood at INR 1,222 crore. The company guided FY26 EBITDA margin of 23.5%-24.5%, reflecting confidence despite generic Revlimid exclusivity loss. Key growth drivers include respiratory pipeline (Advair launch in FY26, six respiratory ANDAs filed), peptide launches (two to three in FY26), and Nano Paclitaxel/Nilotinib approvals. One India chronic mix improved to 61.5%. Risk: Generic Revlimid compression could pressure U.S. revenue and margins in coming quarters.
सिप्ला ने वित्त वर्ष 2025 की चौथी तिमाही में अच्छा प्रदर्शन किया। कंपनी की कमाई 6,730 करोड़ रुपये रही, जो पिछले साल से 9% ज्यादा है। मुनाफा 1,222 करोड़ रुपये रहा। कंपनी का परिचालन मुनाफा (EBITDA) 22.8% रहा, जो पिछले साल से 1.5% बेहतर है। भारत में बिक्री 8% बढ़ी, अमेरिका में 221 मिलियन डॉलर की कमाई हुई, और यूरोप-मध्य पूर्व-अफ्रीका में 16% बढ़ोतरी हुई। कंपनी को अगले साल 23.5% से 24.5% तक मुनाफा रहने की उम्मीद है। मुख्य वृद्धि सांस संबंधी दवाओं, पेप्टाइड दवाओं और कैंसर की दवाओं से होगी। भारत में पुरानी बीमारियों की दवाओं का हिस्सा 61.5% हो गया है। जोखिम: अमेरिका में रेवलिमिड जेनेरिक दवा की कीमत गिरने से आने वाले समय में कमाई और मुनाफा कम हो सकता है।
