Sun Pharma delivered a strong Q2 FY25 with consolidated sales of INR 13,264 crore, up 10.5% YoY, driven by US specialty growth (+20.3% to $517M) and India formulation growth (+11%). EBITDA margin expanded 350 bps YoY to 29.6%, aided by favorable product mix and lower material costs. PAT grew 28% YoY to INR 3,040 crore. The US specialty portfolio (Ilumya, Winlevi, Cequa) continues to perform well, while the India business gained market share to 8.1%. R&D spend guidance was revised down to 7-8% of sales due to clinical trial delays. Key risks include the binary outcome of Leqselvi patent litigation and potential margin pressure from higher selling expenses.
सन फार्मा की दूसरी तिमाही (Q2 FY25) में अच्छी कमाई हुई। कंपनी की कुल बिक्री 13,264 करोड़ रुपये रही, जो पिछले साल से 10.5% ज्यादा है। अमेरिका में खास दवाओं की बिक्री 20.3% बढ़कर 517 मिलियन डॉलर हुई, और भारत में दवाओं की बिक्री 11% बढ़ी। कंपनी का मुनाफा (EBITDA) 29.6% हो गया, जो पिछले साल से 3.5% ज्यादा है, क्योंकि उन्होंने सही उत्पाद मिश्रण और कम लागत का फायदा उठाया। शुद्ध मुनाफा (PAT) 28% बढ़कर 3,040 करोड़ रुपये हो गया। अमेरिका में Ilumya, Winlevi, Cequa जैसी दवाएं अच्छा कर रही हैं, और भारत में बाजार हिस्सेदारी 8.1% हो गई। R&D खर्च अब बिक्री का 7-8% रहेगा, क्योंकि कुछ परीक्षणों में देरी हुई। जोखिम: Leqselvi पेटेंट मुकदमे का नतीजा और बिक्री खर्च बढ़ने से मुनाफा कम हो सकता है।
