Sai Life Sciences delivered a strong FY26 with 29% revenue growth, 56% EBITDA growth, and 109% PAT growth, driven by deepening large pharma relationships (19 of top 25, contributing 49% of revenue vs 28% in FY22) and balanced CRO/CDMO performance. The CDMO segment grew 33%, CRO 24%. Management reiterated a 15-20% revenue growth and 28-30% EBITDA margin guidance over three years, but flagged near-term headwinds from geopolitical tensions impacting input costs and logistics. A sharp capex increase to ₹1,100-1,300 crore in FY27 (vs ₹633 crore in FY26) reflects strong demand visibility from strategic customer partnerships, with 75% allocated to capacity expansion. However, execution risk remains as new capacities come online, with H2 expected stronger than H1. The key risk is that cost recovery from customers may lag cost increases, pressuring margins.
साई लाइफ साइंसेज ने FY26 में शानदार प्रदर्शन किया। कमाई 29% बढ़ी, मुनाफा (EBITDA) 56% बढ़ा और शुद्ध मुनाफा (PAT) 109% बढ़ा। इसकी वजह बड़ी दवा कंपनियों से गहरे संबंध हैं। अब शीर्ष 25 में से 19 कंपनियां इसकी ग्राहक हैं, जो 49% कमाई देती हैं। कंपनी ने अगले तीन सालों में 15-20% कमाई और 28-30% मुनाफा मार्जिन का लक्ष्य रखा है। लेकिन भू-राजनीतिक तनाव से लागत और आपूर्ति पर असर पड़ सकता है। FY27 में पूंजी निवेश बढ़ाकर ₹1,100-1,300 करोड़ किया जाएगा, जिसमें 75% क्षमता बढ़ाने पर खर्च होगा। हालांकि, नई क्षमताओं से जुड़ा जोखिम है और लागत वसूली में देरी से मुनाफा कम हो सकता है।
