What the record says.
Sun Pharma reported Q3 FY24 consolidated revenue of INR 12,157 crore, up 9.5% YoY, driven by strong specialty sales (up 26.1% to $296M) and India formulation growth of 11.4%. EBITDA margin expanded 140bps to 28.1%, aided by better product mix and lower material costs. Adjusted PAT grew 19.7% to INR 2,594 crore. U.S. specialty continued to perform well, though generic business remained flattish due to Halol/Mohali plant issues. Management highlighted a healthy pipeline, including Nidlegy filing in Europe and Phase II/III starts for MM-II and GL0034 in H2 2024. The Taro merger at $43/share offers strategic benefits. Key risk: ongoing regulatory challenges at Mohali plant may delay generic supply recovery.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Management indicated that R&D spend for the full year is expected to reach the lower end of the 7% of sales guidance.
- Phase III for MM-II and Phase II for GL0034, initially expected early 2024, are now slated to begin in the second half of 2024.
- Partner product Nidlegy is expected to be filed with European authorities during the first half of 2024.
Risks flagged
- Supplies from Mohali plant are not normal; issues with product prioritization and quality clearances are causing delays.
- CEQUA's market share has declined due to generic Restasis and new entrants with different mechanisms of action.
- Management is monitoring the Red Sea situation; potential for shipment delays if situation does not normalize.
- The $43/share offer requires approval from Taro's minority shareholders; failure could derail the merger.
Key quotes
- Generic REVLIMID sales were very small in this quarter.
- If you see any IL-23 and ILUMYA also, there is a good mix of treatment-naive patients who get onto the product, along with almost an equal proportion of patients who have failed on some other product before they come on to ours.
- We believe that with our overall performance that we've seen in healthy subjects for our product, it has a compelling therapeutic efficacy likely to be there when the product comes to market.
