Gland Pharma delivered a strong Q3 FY26 with consolidated revenue of INR 1,695.4 crore (+22% YoY) and adjusted EBITDA of INR 449 crore (+25% YoY), driven by broad-based growth across base business and Cenexi. U.S. revenue grew 19% YoY to INR 829 crore, supported by volume gains from new GPO contracts and 10 product launches. Cenexi achieved EUR 50 million revenue (+21% YoY) and positive EBITDA of EUR 1.4 million, marking a turnaround. Management guided for 12-13% organic growth in FY27 and a 15% CAGR over five years, backed by INR 2,000 crore brownfield CapEx over five years, including BFS and ophthalmic lines. Key risks include delayed Dalbavancin U.S. approval and slower-than-expected ramp-up of new CDMO contracts.
