Gujarat Themis Biosyn Limited (GTBL) has announced a significant acquisition of Sanofi's global anti-tuberculosis (TB) and anti-infective portfolio. This strategic move is set to enhance GTBL's presence in the pharmaceutical industry.
On April 23, 2026, GTBL signed an asset purchase agreement to acquire 13 branded generic products from Sanofi.
These products have a strong market presence in over 55 countries across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. The portfolio reported net sales of approximately €62 million for the year ending 2025.
The acquisition includes marketing authorisations, brands, regulatory dossiers, inventory, and associated commercial rights.
Notably, the transaction does not involve the transfer of manufacturing facilities or employees, making it a capital-efficient and asset-light expansion for GTBL.
This acquisition aligns with GTBL's strategy to strengthen its global pharmaceutical platform and expand its reach in the anti-infective segment.
By acquiring this portfolio, GTBL gains immediate access to regulated and semi-regulated markets, enhancing its international footprint.
The move also presents an opportunity for forward integration, allowing GTBL to leverage its existing capabilities in fermentation-based intermediates and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) to support the acquired finished dosage formulations portfolio.
The total consideration for the transaction is €158 million, payable in cash at closing. GTBL plans to fund this acquisition through a mix of debt and equity.
The transaction is expected to be earnings per share (EPS) accretive, supported by profitable branded generics sales, vertical integration, and improved operating leverage.
