Sector Update – Auto & Auto Ancillary

This quarter for Healthcare sector has not been very strong. The US is the biggest export market for Indian pharma companies. Warning letters from FDA in US has been putting pressure on pharma companies. Nine letters were issued in the year 2019. This would require companies to invest more in automation and employee training in coming days.

Key Findings
  • The Indian companies operating in the US haven’t seen any significant improvements due to their limited launches.
  • Lupin, Dr. Reddy’s Lab and Cipla were among the few ones who managed to deliver good numbers from the US business.
  • Revenues didn’t increase much in this quarter as previous quarter’s sales were affected by flu during Monsoon.
  • Sun Pharma’s top line growth is majorly due to consolidation of Pola Pharma in Japan. The decline in margins can be attributed towards higher R&D expense.
  • Dr. Reddy’s Labs’ revenues were pushed due to launch of five new products and entry into nutrition products.
  • Aurobindo Pharma’s highest revenue growth came from Europe due to shortages and expansion in new markets.
  • Ipca Laboratories’ strong growth in API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient) and contribution from consolidated subsidiaries led the growth.
  • For Cadila and Torrent, regulatory compliance in the US has kept growth under pressure as they have received warning letters from FDA.
  • Alkem Lab’s growth in profits is largely due to acceptance in domestic base coupled with benefits from lower effective tax rate
