2-Minute Summary

✦ AI-Generated from Full Transcript

Glenmark's Q2 FY26 consolidated revenue surged 76% YoY to ₹6,047 crore, driven by the ISB 2001 out-licensing deal which contributed ₹4,466 crore in North America. Excluding this, core business grew 7.4%. India formulation sales fell 87% due to GST-driven distributor destocking, but management expects a rebound to ₹1,150-1,200 crore run-rate from Q3. The company used the $700 million upfront payment to repay all debt, becoming net cash positive. EBITDA margin is guided to 23% immediately, targeting 25%+. Key growth drivers include respiratory launches, IGI's multi-specific antibody platform (ISB 2301 entering clinics in FY27), and specialty products like Ryaltris. Risk: Legacy distribution model remains vulnerable to regulatory changes, as seen with GST disruption.
