✦ AI-Generated from Full Transcript

Gland Pharma reported a strong Q2 FY26 with consolidated revenue of INR 14,869 million, up 6% YoY, and EBITDA of INR 3,139 million (21% margin). Base business EBITDA margin improved to 37% (adjusted), driven by favorable product mix and cost initiatives. U.S. revenue grew 8% YoY to INR 8,005 million, supported by new launches (7 molecules) and volume growth. Cenexi revenue rose 21% YoY in INR terms, though EBITDA remained negative due to a planned shutdown; management expects Cenexi to break even in Q3. Key growth drivers include the upcoming launch of dalbavancin, GLP-1 capacity expansion (40M to 140M cartridges), and biologic CDMO ramp-up. Management maintained mid-teens consolidated revenue growth guidance for FY26. Risk: Cenexi turnaround may be delayed if revenue ramp-up falls short of EUR 50 million quarterly target.
