Results below expectations: Alembic reported a revenue growth of 6.6% yoy to
`366cr, mainly driven by the domestic formulation business which grew by 14%.
However, the exports segment grew by a mere 1% yoy with it being impacted by a
de-growth (by 37% yoy) in the export of APIs. The main growth driver was the
domestic business which grew by 10% yoy.
The other exports segments, namely the branded exports and international
generics, de-grew by 33% yoy and 25% yoy respectively. The de-growth in the
international generic formulations was mainly due to price erosion, product mix
and capacity constraint.
The management expects FY2013 to be a strong year for the domestic
formulations business, where the company expects to log in a 12-15% yoy growth,
driven by the chronic segment. The company has filed 49 for abbreviated new
drug applications (ANDAs) in the US year till date and received 20 approvals
(including 2 tentative approvals).

OPM came just in line: The gross margins expanded by 214bps, on the back of
higher contribution of domestic formulations. However, on the operating front, the
margins came in at 14.3% vs 15.3% (the expectation), mainly on account of lower
than expected sales.

Concall Highlights
„ For FY2013, the domestic formulation growth is expected to be at 12-15%.
For API exports, growth would be 10-15% yoy in FY2013. International
generics are expected to be muted over the next two to three quarters. Overall,
the management expects the growth in export revenue to be around 15% in
FY2013.
„ The company launched the dermatology division during the quarter with a
field force of 100 people to strengthen its position in the specialty business.
„ The company filed 4 ANDAs in 1QFY2013.
„ R&D Expenses are expected to be around 4% of sales in FY2013.
„ OPM is expected to be around 15% for the next two years.
„ Tax rate for FY2013 would be around 20% of PBT.
„ For FY2013, the management has guided for `100cr of capex, of which `70cr
would be towards the exports formulation plant, which would come on stream
in 4QFY2013.
Investment arguments
Focus on Chronic segment to drive domestic formulation growth: Alembic has
been restructuring its business portfolio, which would aid in improving the
company’s growth and operating performance. The company’s domestic
formulation business contributed 54% to its total sales in FY2012, with ~70% of its
revenue coming from the anti-infective, respiratory, gynaecological and gastro
therapeutic space. The company has a strong field force of ~3,300 medical
representatives. Going forward, the company expects its domestic formulation
business to at least grow in line with the industry growth rate, before the share of
the high growth chronic segment improves from the current levels of ~30%. For
FY2012-14, we expect the domestic formulation business to grow at 14.0% CAGR.

Alembic Pharma | 1QFY2013 Result Update
Exports- US the key growth driver: On the exports front, the formulation business
contributed 20% to the total turnover, with majority of the contribution coming
from Europe and the US. In the US, the company has filed for 45 ANDAs year till
date and received 20 approvals. The company, going forward, expects to keep its
momentum high in terms of number of filings, by filing around 12-18 ANDAs per
annum. FY2013 would see modest growth in exports as compared to its historical
high growth rate on account of capacity constraints. However, FY2014 should
witness the growth in exports to resume. For FY2012-14, we expect the exports to
register a CAGR of 21.1%.
Outlook and valuation: Alembic’s growth and profitability profile have improved
post the restructuring carried out by the management. Over FY2012-14, we expect
the company to post a CAGR of
13.3% and
14.6% in its sales and
net profit respectively. At the current market price, the stock is trading at an
attractive valuations. Hence, we maintain our Buy recommendation on the stock
with a target price of `91.
