Launches and margin sustainability hold key for Glenmark: ICICI Direct

Key takeaways of Q3FY22 quarter & conference call highlights

  • By IPP Bureau | February 15, 2022

Glenmark’s revenues grew 13.9% YoY to Rs 3173.4 crore driven by 21.5% YoY growth in Europe to Rs 380.7 crore, 14.1% YoY growth in India to Rs 1006.9 crore and 24.3% YoY growth in RoW markets to Rs 417.8 crore. This was partially offset by YoY de-growth of 3% in the US to Rs 756.7 crore, YoY decline of 9% in LatAm market to Rs 117 crore and YoY de-growth of 5.3% in APIs to Rs 303.2 crore. EBITDA margins improved 282 bps YoY to 21.8% mainly due to lower employee and other expenditures being partially offset by lower gross margins. EBITDA grew 30.8% YoY to Rs 693.2 crore while adjusted PAT grew 70.5% YoY to Rs 400.3 crore. [Note: Glenmark incurred a one-time loss of Rs178.3 crore on account of impairment of certain intangible assets]

Glenmark continued to outperform IPM in Q3 while in consumer business Candid cream and La Shield delivered strong growth. The company witnessed healthy growth in both its key markets of Western Europe and Central Eastern Europe during the quarter while there was healthy growth in base business across geographies in RoW markets. Latin America market remained challenging due to the pandemic in Brazil. On the US front, the company received USFDA approval for NDA Ryaltris. Glenmark remains on track to meet key objectives for FY22 with 10-15% growth and steady EBITDA margins. We expect the US to grow on the back of new launches
