Outlook and valuation: Over FY2016-18E, we expect the company to post a
CAGR of 13.9% in sales, while profitability will be under pressure on back of
higher R&D spend, which is likely to reach 13-14% of sales in FY2017-FY2018E.

Sales below expectation: Alembic Pharma’s 4QFY2016 results are below
expectation on the sales front. The company posted sales of `626cr (V/s `763cr
expected), up 24.7% yoy.
The growth in sales was driven by the international formulations business
(`190.2cr) which posted a yoy growth of
20%, while Indian formulations
(`259.6cr) posted a 12% yoy growth. The growth in the Indian formulations
segment was driven by the specialty segment which grew by 13% yoy, while the
acute segment grew by 7% yoy during the period. During FY2016, the specialty
segment had a 60% share in domestic formulations while the rest was accounted
by the acute segment (40%). The API business (`166.9cr) posted a growth of 95%
yoy. The Indian generic segment on the other hand posted a dip of 46% yoy.
Till date, the company has filed 76 products (2 in 4QFY2016), received 47
approvals (2 in 4QFY2016) and launched 29 products in the market. The
remaining 27 ANDA filings are primarily para IVs and attractive opportunities for
the company. The company has also launched 11 products through its own front
end in the US.

OPM higher than expectation: On the operating front, the EBIDTA margin stood at
22.7% V/s 20.0% expected. The gross margin expanded to 80.2% V/s 65.3% in
the corresponding period of last year; however the expansion in the OPM was
relatively lower as R&D expenditure during the quarter stood at 17.8% of sales V/s
6.1% of sales in 4QFY2015. For FY2016, R&D expenditure was 9.7% of sales. The
gross margins expanded on back of favorable product mix and booking of
disproportionate profit share from Abilify sales.

Concall highlights
The company has guided for `450cr spend for FY2017. Till now the company
was focusing upon oral solids filings in the US. However, going forward it
would be focusing upon niche filings in the area of oncology orals &
injectables and derma products (through JV with Orbicular).
The company has given `400cr of capex guidance for FY2017.
483 observations at Panelav facility although non-serious in nature; no data
integrity issue found.
Investment arguments
Focus on chronic segment to drive domestic formulation growth: Alembic Pharma
has been restructuring its business portfolio, which would aid in improving its
growth and operating performance. The company’s domestic formulation business
contributed 44% to its total sales in FY2016. The company has a strong field force
of ~3,600 medical representatives. Going forward, the company expects its
domestic formulation business to at least grow in line with the industry growth rate,
before it sees an improvement in the share of the high growth chronic segment.
For FY2016-18E, we expect the domestic formulation business to grow at a CAGR
of 15.0%.
Exports- US the key growth driver: On the exports front, the formulation business
contributed by 30% to the total turnover, with majority of the contribution coming
from Europe and the US. In the US, the company has filed for ~76 ANDAs till date
and received 47 approvals. The company, going forward, expects to keep its
momentum high in terms of number of filings, by filing around 10-12 ANDAs per
annum. For FY2016-18E, we expect exports to register a CAGR of 13.6%, mainly
on back of base effect impact of FY2016 (sales grew by 46%, due to launch of
Abilify).
Outlook and valuation: Over FY2016-18E, we expect the company to post a
CAGR of 13.9% in sales, while profitability will be under pressure on back of

higher R&D spend, which is likely to reach 13-14% of sales in FY2017-FY2018E.
