Indian Pharma companies are looking at a sustainable growth opportunity in the
coming decade as the lack of differentiation in Generics has chipped away at margins
due to increased competition.
While companies with a large US Generics exposure are looking at niche opportunities
like Complex Generics/Specialty drugs, Contract Research and Manufacturing Services
(CRAMS) for API/Formulation has emerged as a successful opportunity for companies
with a sound technical, manufacturing, and regulatory expertise.
The branded Domestic Formulation space remains a high return ratio segment, with a
moderation in growth, excluding COVID-19, due to the reduced burden of Acute
diseases.
We believe DIVI, GLAND, SUNP, and LAURUS are suitably positioned in this framework
for a superior business trajectory. DIVI/GLAND is expected to continue to outperform
among Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO) players. We
expect SUNP to turn the tide in US sales with its Specialty business, albeit with a
longer gestation period. We expect LAURUS to outperform the industry in APIs and
Formulations in the near term, with Biologics/Fermentation CDMOs acting as a key
trigger over the next 3-5 years.
CRAMS – Rising prospects in Biologics and Synthesis segments
CRAMS has emerged as a niche segment, offering a high growth potential. The
global CRAMS segment is expected to clock 6.2% CAGR over CY21-26E to touch
~USD170b.
Biologics-based CRAMS
is expected to witness 11% CAGR over CY20-
26E, led by ever-rising number of products under development for targeted action
and limited manufacturing skill set of respective companies. With ~6,000 molecules
in the pipeline,
‘small molecules’
constitute a dominant share within the CRAMS
segment.
With the ease of access to capital for emerging Pharma companies, there is a surge
in Biopharma companies focusing on R&D and outsourcing manufacturing at the
research/commercial level. This, along with cost consciousness of larger Pharma
companies, is providing a fillip to this segment. Indian CRAMS players are uniquely
positioned to outperform the industry in this segment.
US Generics – The search for greener pastures
After sales declined to USD56b in CY19 from USD66b in CY16, the Generics industry
in the US clocked a steady YoY growth in CY20. The improved launch pace was
sufficient enough to counter the price erosion in the base business. However, the
annual pace of filings has slowed to ~800/230 in FY21/4MFY22 from more than
1,000 in FY17. This is partly due to increased filings for complex products and
COVID-related hurdles. Indian companies are working on different strategies such
as: a) building Complex Generics, NCEs (New Chemical Entity), and branded
Generics, or b) in-licensing/partnering to augment capabilities.
Most potential products are spread over the development/approval stage, and are
sometime away from commercialization. This has made companies vulnerable to
higher competition in their base business, the result of which manifested in a
sequential sales decline of 5% in 1QFY22. Although we like the move of Generic
companies to niche segments, we expect US sales to remain under pressure over
the near to medium term.

A gradual recovery in Domestic Formulations (DFs), excluding COVID-
related therapies
The DF market showed remarkable (12.8% YoY) growth on a MAT basis in Jul’21
after exhibiting a downtrend in growth from Jul’15 to Jul’20. This is due to a spike in
consumption of COVID-related medicines. The enhanced usage of digital tools has
started transforming marketing in the DF segment.
The product launch pace was elevated with Anti-infectives (17), Cardiac (11), Anti-
Neoplastics (9), and Anti-Diabetic (9) witnessing the highest number of launches
over the past 12 months. While the COVID-related offtake is subsiding with lower
cases, we expect core therapies to revive gradually going forward.
Supply disruption and Complex APIs are key levers of growth in API
Global API sales are expected to exhibit ~6% CAGR over CY21-26E to touch USD259b
(v/s 3.6% CAGR witnessed over CY18-20), given the rising prevalence of Chronic
disorders and growing development trend in innovative therapeutic drugs. In
addition to increasing demand and re-consideration of the API source by
formulators, shutdown of API factories in China is expected to drive better business
opportunities for Indian API companies. As a result, the Indian API sector is expected
to outperform other countries, with an estimated CAGR of 9.6% over CY21-26E.
Focus on Complex Formulations/Generics by Innovators/Generic companies is
expected to drive faster growth for Complex APIs, at 9.3% CAGR over CY21-26E, and
is expected to account for 62% of global API sales in CY26E.
Remain positive on DIVI, GLAND, SUNP, and LAURUS
We remain positive on DIVI, GLAND, SUNP, and LAURUS based on our analysis of
their strengths in one or more areas.
CRAMS/custom synthesis remains the fastest growing opportunity. Based on its
relationships and execution track record,
DIVI
is best placed among Indian
Pharma companies to outshine in this space.
We like
GLAND
due to its presence in one of the most sought after segments for
Formulations companies – Injectables, and its unabashed compliance record.
SUNP
has taken the bold and decisive step to venture into the US Specialty
segment. Given its experience in commercialization, expansion in the offing, and
ramp-up in sales, SUNP’s specialty business has the potential to add a high
margin business over the next 5-7 years. Its strength in DFs can continue to
support its efforts to succeed in the Specialty segment.
After a multi-year journey to transform from an ARV API player to a Formulations
player,
LAURUS
is progressing towards a differentiated Pharma company. Its
current strength lies in the ARV segment. It is reaping growth in custom synthesis on
strong execution, and is building its US Generics pipeline. It has ventured into
Biologics/Fermentation CDMO through the acquisition of Richore Lifesciences.
Strong backward integration bodes well for its multi-year growth journey.
With the Aurore Life Sciences (ALS) acquisition,
SOLARA
is embarking on its next
journey in both Generic APIs as well as CDMO. While backward integration in
Ibuprofen gives it a distinct advantage to weather the pricing pressure, the ALS
acquisition accelerates its CRAMS aspirations, with an upside from synergies and
new inorganic opportunities.

CRAMS – Rising prospects in Biologics and Synthesis segments
Expect emerging
Biopharma companies,
with a focus on R&D and
access to capital, to drive
growth in the Biologics
CDMO sector
CDMO is the most promising segment in the Pharma space. Indian companies are
building their skill set to cater to Biologics and Synthesis-based CDMO.
With a spurt of emerging Biopharma companies, developing ~3,500 recombinant
proteins/antibodies and having limited manufacturing capabilities/capacity, it
provides the right ingredient to partner with CDMO companies.
Small molecules are still a dominant play in the CDMO segment, with ~6,000
molecules in the pipeline providing business opportunities across the value chain of
product development to commercial manufacturing.
Huge product pipeline/lookout for manufacturing partners bodes well for
Biologics-based CDMO players
CDMO opportunities in
Biologics are restricted
not just to Formulation
manufacturers.
Fermentation-based
CDMO opportunities to
supply the drug
substance for Biologics
are evolving quickly
Global Biopharma sales are expected to clock 10% CAGR and touch USD461b
over CY20-25E. Biologics are gaining popularity in Oncology and Autoimmune
segments, with their better targeted action mechanism. Biologics protects
innovators from generic competition to a greater extent than small molecules,
given their complexity to develop and manufacture and limited/no mandatory
substitution requirements for Biologics in developed markets.
The global Biologics CDMO market is expected to touch USD19b, with 11% CAGR
over CY20-26E. This represents 3-5% of the total Biologics market. There are
~3,500 recombinant proteins/antibodies in R&D and commercial stages.
Biologics CDMO is expected to be driven by: a) small/emerging Biopharma, with
minimal manufacturing capabilities, and b) Big Pharma looking for additional
manufacturing partners. The number of Biologics under development by small
and emerging Pharma companies is rising. They have been supported by VC
funding, especially to emerging Pharma companies that are more focused on
R&D and not manufacturing. Such companies constitute ~80% of the current
development pipeline. Around 70% of their development and manufacturing
requirements are outsourced, with smaller Biotech companies outsourcing their
entire development and manufacturing services.
With an increasing number of products from such emerging Biopharma getting
approved, the need for Biologics CMO partners will also increase.

Biologics CDMO still constitutes a small proportion of total Biologics sales. This is
mainly due to two reasons: a) Biopharma sales are estimated using the price of
the end-product, whereas the CDMO market is estimated using revenue realized
by CDMO players, roughly equal to COGS of branded Biopharma drugs, and b)
large innovators still manufacture a big chunk of the drugs themselves,
especially those targeted at regulated markets, to minimize the risk from
disruption.
Loss of exclusivity (LoE) in Biologics provides an additional opportunity to CDMO
players as there is a higher focus on the COGS for Biosimilars due to their lower
pricing as compared to branded Biologics.

molecules to support
CDMO opportunities
from pre-clinical to

3 September 2021
With better funding available to emerging Pharma companies, and with CDMOs
available to cater to their needs (right from pre-clinical to commercial stages), a
number of research-focused Pharma companies are fast emerging, especially in
developed countries.
There were ~6,000 small molecules in the pipeline in CY19, up from ~4,500 in
CY15. The outsourced market in small molecules was estimated at USD70-80b

 Motilal Oswal Financial Services
Healthcare | CRAMS/API – Consistency breeding stability
across preclinical, clinical, and commercial stages, and is expected to continue to
grow at 5-6% over the next 5-6 years.
High Potency APIs (HPAPI) has emerged as another niche segment in small
molecule APIs, constituting ~30% of chemical compounds in the pipeline. They
are characterized by better targeting and higher efficacy, and are increasingly
being used in Oncology, Anti-Diabetics, and Autoimmune applications.
CRAMS includes CRO (Contract Research Organization) and CDMO. Companies
offering CRO services focus on research and drug discovery phases, with an
offering in biochemistry, biology, data and statistical analysis, and regulatory
filing services.
Manufacture of low volume and clinical quantities of APIs and Formulations is
sufficient for clinical trials, but substantially lower than commercial quantities.

CDMO market to witness 6% CAGR over CY20-26E
Healthy mix of innovator

provide a two-fold
opportunity
The global CDMO outsourcing market is expected to grow at 6.2% CAGR over
the next five years. A similar pace of growth is expected in the Global API CDMO
market.
API CDMO accounts for ~75% of the global CDMO market. This is due to a focus
on cost by both Generic and Innovator Pharma companies. Many innovators
have divested their API facilities to concentrate on the manufacture of
Formulations. This has resulted in a larger CDMO opportunity for API
manufacturers.

US Generics: The search for greener pastures
While price erosion stabilized by the end of CY20, the performance of companies in
the past six months indicates increased competitive intensity dragging overall
profitability.
The complex product pipeline remains a key lever for growth. However, evolving
regulatory aspects creates a near to medium term volatility in earnings.
A few recent inspections imply a rise in regulatory risk with the ease of travelling.
Decline in the sales of Generics stabilized in CY20
Generics sales grew for
the first time on a YoY
basis in the last five years
in CY20
Spending on Generics fell to USD57b in CY20 from USD67b in CY16. While the
volume offtake increased considerably, the decline in value terms is largely
attributed to steep competition in Generics, especially in oral solids.
Unbranded Generics prescriptions (adjusted) saw a 3.2% CAGR over CY16-20,
reaching 5.6b prescriptions in CY20.

We expect gross/net spending to grow at 3.1%/1.8% CAGR over CY21-25E. The
growth drivers over CY21-25 are expected to be: a) an aging US population, b)
higher spending on new branded drugs, c) price increases in branded drug, and
d) rising affordability of drugs going generic.
Over CY16-20, drugs worth ~USD70b lost their exclusivity. During the 10-year
(CY16-25) period, CY20/CY21 have been two of the slowest years in terms of
LoE, hindering growth of generics to some extent.

Aggregate US sales for our coverage companies slowed down in 1H, due to a
sharp rise in competition, which led to a 5% QoQ decline in the US sales in
2QCY21.
The slowdown in filings/approvals moderated incremental business
The USFDA approved a record number of ANDAs in FY19, up from 783 in FY18.
ANDA filings and approvals saw a slight decline with the onset of the COVID-19
pandemic towards the end of FY20. The pace of ANDA filings as well as
approvals slowed down in FY21. However, ANDA approvals increased to 791, as
approvals for products filed in previous years flowed through in FY21.
We expect ANDA filings and approvals to improve slightly going forward as
normalcy returns around the world given the pace of vaccination.
Number of ANDAs are expected to slow down on a normalized basis as more
and more Generic companies focus on Complex Generic products and
differentiated dosage forms, moving away from me-too Generics.

Indian Pharma companies have reduced the pace of filings and approvals
The slowing pace of filings
and approvals are keeping
new launches in check
Although USFDA’s approval pace increased in FY21, the pace of filings by Indian
Pharma companies and approvals have slowed down.
Total ANDA approvals declined marginally for our coverage companies to 209 in
FY21 from 217 in FY20.
Barring ARBP, which has kept pace with its filing history, all companies under
our coverage saw a lower number of ANDA filings/approvals over the past 12
months.
The slower rate of new launches has resulted in higher competition in the base
business, especially in me-too Generic products.
All the aforementioned factors have led to a decline in US sales for Indian
Pharma companies, which declined by 5% QoQ to USD1.7b on an aggregate
basis in 1QFY22.
Given the pace of filings, we expect new launches to remain muted in the US
over the near to medium term.

Compliance risk could increase as the USFDA begins physical inspections in
India
USFDA conducts three
inspections in India since
Feb’21 v/s zero in CY20
after the onset of the
COVID-19 pandemic
USFDA inspections have considerably slowed down since the onset of the
COVID-19 pandemic due to safety concerns and travel restrictions across the
world. The USFDA conducted more than 19,000 inspections across all divisions
and geographies in CY19. This fell to ~6,100/~1,750 in CY20/1HCY21.
Of the ~1,750 inspections conducted in CY21 till date, 1,699 were in the US, 43
in China, and only one in India (JOL’s Roorkee plant).
Issuance of warning letters to Pharma companies for aspects related to drug
quality has also reduced to 21 in CY21 from 112 in CY19 due to lower number of
inspections conducted by the USFDA
The slowdown in inspections has had a mixed outcome on Indian Pharma
companies. While it has reduced the risk of an adverse regulatory outcome to
facilities, which are currently under compliance, it has delayed the resolution of
facilities under USFDA sanctions (OAI/warning letters). The delay in inspections
has led to a deferral in commercialization from new sites for companies like
SOLARA.
Companies severely impacted by the delay are TRP (two plants under sanctions),
LPC (two warning letters in India awaiting resolution), IPCA (awaiting resolution
of the Import Alert and warning letter).
Companies with a strong compliance record such as GLAND/DIVI/PIEL remain
unaffected.

The USFDA has started to conduct physical inspections in India through its local
office, albeit at a slower pace. Inspections would be prioritized at mission-critical
facilities, while inspections at other facilities may still be some time away. The
USFDA had said that inspections of US facilities have normalized now.
None of the three facilities, which were inspected by the USFDA in CY21, have
cleared their inspections. JOL received an import alert, while the outcome of the
other two inspections is awaited.
Resumption of inspections in India will increase regulatory risk for companies
with a large number of facilities and those with a checkered regulatory past.
However, it will offer a chance for companies like IPCA and TRP to get their
facilities cleared.

Growth levers in US Generics a work-in-progress
Large Generic companies are trying myriad routes to expand in low competition, but
high complexity, product segments.
Most Generic companies are focusing on internal abilities in their areas of strength,
while opting for in-licensing/partnering to add capabilities/products.
Efforts towards building a niche product pipeline
Generic Pharma companies are focusing on differentiated product offerings to
navigate higher competition in the Generics space in the US.
Indian Pharma companies have a presence in different categories of Complex
products, including NCEs/NBEs.

Cumulative opportunity
from the LoE in small
molecules is ~USD80b
over CY22-25E
There is a 10-year window (CY16-25) in terms of LoE opportunities in small

the US. However, LoE opportunities are expected to increase significantly,
providing a fillip to the US sales of Generic companies.

Drug shortages offer another growth opportunity
Drug shortages provide
opportunities for
companies with a wide
product portfolio and for
those with a strong
compliance record
Quality issues were the main reason for the shortage of drugs in the US (64%),
followed by raw material issues (27%).
Companies under import alert are banned from exporting drugs to the US. Even
regulatory action (such as a warning letter/OAI) by the USFDA may require
corrective measures, temporarily impacting production and disrupting supply to
the US market. At times, this results in a shortage of drugs in the US. The
timeline to resolve compliance issues varies from at least a year to more than
three years, leading to disruptions in the supply of live saving and maintenance
drugs.

About 65% of drugs currently in shortage are seen in Injectables and other
related dosage forms such as IVs. Manufacturing facilities for Injectables find it
hard to maintain compliance with regulatory norms due to the requirement of
sterile processing of drugs. This has led to continued shortages in Injectables,
despite considerable efforts towards automation and removal of human
intervention.
Despite being one of the biggest markets for Generics in the world,
characterized by high competition among Pharma companies, the US continues
to experience drug shortages at an alarming rate. Around 166 drugs were facing
a shortage in the US in CY19. Injectables account for 40-65% of drugs in shortage
annually.
18
3 September 2021
 Motilal Oswal Financial Services
Healthcare | CRAMS/API – Consistency breeding stability
To mitigate the impact of drug shortages, the USFDA has taken numerous
actions in the past. These include:
Identifying the extent of the shortfall to determine if other manufacturers
can increase production to make up for the deficit in supply.
Expediting inspections and priority reviews of submissions from affected
manufacturers and trying to restore production.
Expedite inspections and/or reviews of submissions by other companies
wanting to start or increase production of products in shortage.
Reviewing requests for extensions of expiration dates.
Flexibility in obtaining medically necessary drugs from new/alternate
sources.
Working with the affected manufacturers to identify root causes of
shortages.
Developing risk mitigation measures to allow individual batches of drugs in
shortage to be made available to patients, even when quality requirements
are not met.
Despite these mitigating and reactive measures taken by the USFDA to minimize
the impact of shortages, the same continues to reoccur in the US each year.
Shortages provide Generic companies with opportunities to benefit from the
short term increase in demand. Companies with a wider product portfolio and
strong compliance record, especially in Injectables, fare better than others. Such
contracts also offer better than industry margins due to the short-term nature
and necessity of those drugs.
USFDA’s support for Complex Generics a win-win for Pharma companies
and patients
USFDA’s efforts to
support Generic
companies in developing
Complex Generic
products to reduce the
cost burden of branded
products for patients
bode well for those
companies with strong
R&D capabilities
A Complex Generic product is defined by USFDA as one with: a) complex active
ingredient(s) (for instance, peptides, polymeric compounds, complex mixtures
of APIs, naturally sourced ingredients, etc.), b) a complex formulation (e.g.,
liposomes and colloids), c) a complex route of delivery (for instance, locally
acting drugs such as dermatological products, complex Ophthalmological
products, etc.), d) a complex dosage form (for example, transdermal, metered
dose inhalers, and extended release injectables), e) complex drug device
combination products (for example, auto-injectors and metered dose inhalers),
and f) products for which developers/manufacturers can benefit from USFDA’s
early support with regard to product complexity or uncertainty concerning the
approval pathway or possible alternative approaches.
USFDA publishes product-specific guidance (PSG) for Complex Generic products
every quarter and on a need basis to aid in their development. PSG assists
Generic Pharma companies in identifying the most suitable approaches for
generic drug development, including BE/BA studies, various waivers available to
Pharma companies, and testing methods.
USFDA issues PSG at least two years before the earliest ANDA submission date
and has issued PSG for 90% of non-complex NCEs since Oct’17. For complex
products, USFDA issues PSGs as soon as the scientific recommendation is
available.
USFDA aids in the development of Complex Generics by simplifying the pathway
to regulatory approval, shortens the approval timeline, and also lowers the cost
19

of development and expense incurred in development, improving profitability in
these segments, and also attracting new Generic companies to develop Complex
Generic products. With competition in the Generic space, patients benefit from
lower expenses on drugs.

The number of new and revised PSGs issued by the USFDA indicates greater
propensity of Pharma companies to develop complex products and increasing
support from the regulator to the Pharma industry to introduce generic
products in the US as and when they are allowed.
The base business continues to deteriorate at a higher pace as compared to
incremental business from new launches over the near to medium term. The
efforts of companies to arrest the decline and grow and improve return ratios in
the US Generics segment are expected to drive growth over the next 4-5 years.
This would be led by timely approval for niche products and minimal regulatory
risk.

Growth in DFs accelerates post the second COVID wave
Overall growth in DFs sees a strong uptick in Jul’21
The growth rate in DFs has been on a downtrend over the last seven years, from
mid-teens to a low of 5.3% in Jul’20.
However, strong demand for COVID-related products and stability of Chronic
and sub-Chronic segments pushed growth to 12.8% on a MAT basis in Jul’21.
Growth in the Indian Pharma market (IPM) was driven by price growth (5.4%
YoY) and new product launches (4.1%), while volume growth picked up to 3.3%.

According to an analysis by AIOCD, sale of drugs used in COVID-related
treatments (see Exhibit 2) constituted ~37% of IPM on a MAT basis in Jul’21.
The abnormal growth over the last 12 months is an aberration, driven by strong
offtake of COVID-related products. As the second COVID wave recedes in India,
volumes have started normalizing once again.

Anti-Infectives like Favipiravir (INR12.4b), Remdesivir (INR9.3b), and
Remogliflozin (INR1.2b) were the biggest new launches. Respiratory drug
Bilastine saw robust traction as well, recording sales of INR700m on a MAT basis
in Jul’21.
Upcoming new Generic launches in Anti-Diabetics include Sitagliptin and
Remogliflozin in CY22 and Empagliflozin and Linagliptin in CY23, with a
combined expected market size of INR22b.

Look out for structural changes in the DFs segment
Stringent localized and nationwide lockdowns over the last 15 months have
brought into focus digital marketing and virtual interactions with doctors.
Pharma companies in the IPM space are increasing leveraging these
technologies to overcome the challenges thrown up by the COVID-19 pandemic
and to improve the patient-doctor-MR connect.
e-pharmacies are looking to upend the market of Retail pharmacies, leveraging
technology, and burning cash to quickly expand and capture market share.
Prominent players like PharmEasy, 1MG, Medlife, and Netmeds are trying to
improve affordability and accessibility of medicines for their customers.
PharmEasy has recently announced its acquisition of Thyrocare Technologies,
marking its entry into Diagnostics as well.
The increasing share of trade generics and government initiatives like
Janaushadhi Kendras, which provide medicines at lower cost, are expected to
increase affordability of quality medicines and widen the reach of IPM.
The second COVID wave saw aggressive prescription of corticosteroids as an
Anti-Inflammatory drug for the treatment of COVID-induced symptoms.
Excessive use of these drugs in some cases has resulted in infections caused by
opportunistic fungi like mucormycosis. Prolonged use of corticosteroids can
sometimes induce diabetes in patients with no diabetic history.

API: Supply disruption/Complex APIs are key growth levers
The API segment in India is in a sweet spot, with rising demand for novel therapeutics
as well as a reshuffle in the share of Chinese manufacturers.
Shutdown of manufacturing facilities on account of environmental concerns is driving
business opportunities for Indian API manufacturers.
The focus on Complex Formulations from innovators and Complex Generics by generic
Pharma companies is expected to drive faster growth for Complex APIs.
Multiple factors at play to drive API demand
Higher demand for
medicines from the US
and from emerging
countries to drive global
API sales
The size of the global API industry was estimated at USD180b in CY20. At an
estimated CAGR of 6.2% over the next five years, it would reach a market size of
USD260b by CY26E, led by: a) higher demand for medicines, especially in the US,
given its aging population, b) greater demand for medicines in developing
countries such as India, China, and Brazil due to increased affordability, and c)
loss of exclusivity of patented drugs during this period, leading to availability of
generics that are cheaper, yet more effective than existing drugs.
India API sales have grown at 18% CAGR over CY18-20 on a small base. India API
sales are expected to continue their outperformance (9.5% CAGR) over CY20-
26E.

US has been the biggest API market globally in CY20 and is expected to continue
to remain the biggest market in CY26, closely followed by China. This is mainly
due to the higher proportion of domestic consumption of APIs in the US.

Complex API space to witness sustainable growth as well as profitability
Focus on Complex
Generics and Complex
Formulations in branded
drugs to drive faster
growth in Complex APIs
Another interesting aspect is the fast growth (~9% CAGR) in Complex APIs over
CY21-26E v/s 6% for the industry. Complex APIs includes Injectable APIs,
Peptides, Oncology drugs, etc. Growth in this segment was mainly on account
of: a) innovators focusing on Complex Formulations in small molecules to avoid
generic competition even after losing exclusivity and/or patent expiry, and b)
focus on complex drugs by Generic companies to steer away from higher
competition and high erosion in traditional me-too drugs.
In the Complex API segment, Oncology APIs is expected to clock the fastest
growth (12.6% CAGR) over the next five years. Peptides/Injectable APIs are
expected to grow at 10.7%/6.4% CAGR.
As a result, proportion of Complex API sales in total API sales are expected to
increase to 62% in CY26E from 48% in CY18.

Experts said that formulators are inclined to look at suppliers, excluding those
from China. Radical environmental policies are being implemented by China to
curb the high levels of pollution in the country.
This has led to the closure of almost 150 facilities, creating a vacuum in global
supply. This has translated to a price increase in commonly sourced
API/intermediates from China. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has
further intensified the disruption of supplies from China.

Sector slightly above its 10-year valuation multiple
Indian Pharma companies saw their peak valuation of ~35x during the rally of
FY15-17. The rally was fueled by a boom in the US Generics market, with faster
approvals brought about by GDUFA.
With an increase in competition brought about by faster approvals, valuations
started to cool off beginning FY17. Increased regulatory risk in FY18-20 dealt a
blow to valuations, which bottomed out around Apr-May’21, exacerbated by
the uncertainties brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Pharma companies were the least affected during the COVID-19 outbreak,
owing to their essential service status. The pandemic led to an increase in
margin, with savings on marketing, promotion, and travel expense in DFs due to
the lockdowns. This fuelled the rally in Pharma companies in FY21 and pushed
valuations slightly above their 10-year average of ~24x. Valuations also
expanded during this period due to low (non-existent) regulatory risk from plant
inspections, especially from the USFDA, as it halted all overseas inspections due
to COVID-related travel restrictions.
With USFDA slowly, but gradually, resuming plant inspections in India, we
expect some regulatory risk creeping in for companies with a presence in the US
Generics space. We expect a pick-up in higher margin non-COVID sales in the DF
segment, with a decline in cases countering the increase in regulatory risk.

After mastering Generic APIs, DIVI is now deploying six growth engines for
long-term sustained growth. These are as follows:
A)
Capacity expansion
is in line with industry growth for
established products,
where DIVI has a leading (60-70%)
market share.
These are products where it
has legacy strength and constitute a substantial portion of its Generic APIs.
B) DIVI would
ramp up sales,
along with increasing capacity, in
generic
molecules,
where it has
20-30% market share.
It would leverage its business
development expertise and manufacturing efficiency to grow this segment.
C)
Sartans:
With KSMs being made in-house to tackle the NDMA impurity issue,
DIVI would be in a strong position to gain market share through increased
capacity and from the addition of more Sartans molecules. Complemented by
scale, this would help the company gain market share in Sartans.
D) It has increased traction in the
Contrast Media
space in CS and Generic API
segments. It already has a few products in this space and is working with an
innovator on another Iodine-based Contrast Media product, leveraging its
chemistry skill sets.
E)
Two new CS projects
(in addition to Molnupiravir), which are large long-
term contracts, and scale-up in the same would provide further business
opportunities. DIVI is working on these projects on a fast-track basis.
F) There are opportunities in
new generic products,
whose patents are expiring
over FY23-25, which require differentiated technology/process innovations.
DIVI has already developed these and would launch the same post patent
expiry.
In addition to development, DIVI is also investing in creating capacities for
these six engines, some of which are currently underway. These growth
engines, along with investments, would aid in sustainable growth over the
medium term.
Its strength and scale are expected to drive 21%/39% sales CAGR in the Generic
API/CS segment to INR53b/INR55b over FY21-23E.

DIVI has spent ~INR25b on capex since FY18. Capex worth INR5b is currently in
progress and will be completed in FY22.
Legal hurdles are now behind at the Kakinada site. It expects construction to
begin in 2QFY22, with an initial outlay of INR6b and an expected total outlay of
INR10-20b over the next 2-3 years.
The Kakinada expansion is for products, in addition to the six growth levers. DIVI
intends to be future ready, with the timely deployment of capital.
Valuation and view
We expect 36% earnings CAGR over FY21-23E, led by higher business prospects
from CS and Generics, benefit from Molnupiravir supply to the innovator,
improved growth in Nutraceuticals, new product additions in the near term, and
~240bp margin expansion on process and productivity improvements.
We continue to value DIVI at 36x 12-month forward earnings to arrive at our TP
of INR6,070. We reiterate our BUY rating.

Its core markets (US, Europe, Canada, and Australia) are expected to perform on the
back of volume growth and new launches.
India and RoW markets are gaining traction, with additional capacities and
geographic expansion.
China and Vaccine/Biologics are the new levers of growth in the existing business.
We expect 35% earnings CAGR over FY21-23E, led by 18%/44%/48% sales CAGR in its
core markets/India/RoW and a 40bp margin expansion. We value GLAND at a P/E
multiple of 35x to arrive at our TP of INR4,630. We reiterate our BUY rating.

In 1QFY21, growth in core markets was driven by key products such as
Micafungin, Enoxaparin, Heparin, Dexmedetomidine, and new launches,
especially Penems like Ertapenem and Meropenem. Benefits from the single
source supply contract with the distributor for Enoxaparin, by replacing the
innovator, would start from 4QFY22 onwards. Other recently launched
products are expected to be ramped up in the remaining part of FY22.
GLAND is strengthening its product pipeline of peptides, long acting
injectables, suspensions, and Hormones. While it is working on 14 products
currently, it intends to enhance the pipeline by 20-25 products over the next 2-
3 years.
Given the launch momentum and better traction in existing products, we
expect 18% sales CAGR in core markets to INR29b over FY21-23E.
Enhanced geographic reach/new products to aid RoW market prospects
GLAND has had the benefit of faster entry into many RoW countries, due to the
ongoing pandemic, via its COVID-19 portfolio of products. While the entry into
newer countries was on the back of its COVID-19 product portfolio, GLAND has
launched its non-COVID portfolio as well in these markets.
In China, it has filed six products, with a total market size of USD550m.
Approval for the first product is expected at the end of FY22, with revenue
kicking in from 1QFY23E. We expect sales from new markets and product
launches in existing markets to drive 48% sales CAGR to INR12b over FY21-23E
in the RoW segment.
Vaccine on track; Biopharma CDMO expansion on the horizon
GLAND is on track with respect to scale-up of Sputnik V vaccine. With process
improvements and changes, it is working to increase yields on both vaccine
doses.

It is in discussions with Fosun’s other subsidiaries for CDMO contracts in
Biologics/Biosimilars for global markets. GLAND’s move to expand into the
Biologics CDMO space, through the vaccine contract, by leveraging parent
Fosun’s relations and its strong compliance track record would add a new lever
of growth to its existing business and provide further upside from our current
estimates.
Valuation and view
We expect 35% earnings CAGR over FY21-23E, led by 18%/44%/48% sales CAGR
in its core markets/India/RoW and a 40bp margin expansion. We value GLAND
at a P/E multiple of 35x to arrive at our TP of INR4,630. We remain positive on
GLAND on the back of: a) continued growth momentum in its core markets, b)
geographical expansion and new product launches in the RoW segment, c)
operating cost efficiency, d) consistent compliance, and e) an adequate war
chest to tap inorganic opportunities. We reiterate our BUY rating.

Consistent marketing efforts as well as increased reach for Illumya are driving its
performance in the Specialty business. It is also adding products to tide over generic
competition in Absorica.
Increased MR strength in the DF space and enhanced marketing efforts bodes well
for superior growth in the Branded Generics segment.
Taro sales declined by 15% YoY in FY21. However, steady sales for the past three
quarters implies limited impact on the overall profitability of SUNP.
Marketing efforts in the Specialty business, stable Taro sales, and new
launches to drive US sales growth

After the adverse impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the Specialty business at
the start of FY21, product sales bounced back strongly to USD148m in 1QFY22
from USD78m in 1QFY21. The ongoing marketing effort for Illumya would drive
incremental prescription/higher off take from existing patients and lead to
higher operating leverage, driving overall profitability. The generic launch of
another product (Absorica) in the Specialty portfolio may put some pressure on
overall growth prospect over the near term for SUNP. This could be offset to
some extent by the in-licensed Dermatology product Winlevi, albeit at a lower
margin. SUNP can leverage its existing marketing infrastructure for Winlevi as
well.
In addition to superior execution of the existing portfolio, SUNP intends to
develop Illumya for additional indication (Psoriatic Arthritis). A drop in the
number of COVID-19 cases would increase the pace of recruiting patients for
clinical trials.
In the Generics segment, SUNP has 86 ANDAs pending approval. Considering:
a) new launches in Generics, b) stabilizing Taro sales, and c) better traction in
the Specialty portfolio, we expect 15% CAGR in US sales to USD1.8b over FY21-
23E.
DF: Core therapies recover; COVID-related products aid growth to an
extent
SUNP has recorded a 10.5% growth in the DF segment on a MAT basis in Jul’21,
with a slight underperformance to IPM over the last six months, due to delayed
launches of COVID-19 products v/s its peers. With a decline in COVID-19 cases
in India from Jun’21, SUNP saw 17% YoY growth in Jul’21 v/s 13% for IPM.
Based on strong brand recall, market leading presence in the Chronic category,
loss of exclusivity opportunities in DF in FY22, and the expanded field force
reaching optimum productivity, SUNP is well-placed to outperform the industry
over the next 2-3 years. We expect 13% CAGR in India sales to INR132b over
FY21-23E.

Valuation and view
We remain positive on SUNP due to: a) investments in the global Specialty
portfolio improving overall profitability, b) a robust pipeline of NDAs/ANDAs,
and c) revival in the Branded Generics segment.
We value SUNP at a P/E multiple of 25x to arrive at our TP of INR920. We
reiterate our BUY rating.

The Custom Synthesis business, built on the firm foundation of its chemistry skill set
and execution, is set for the next leg of growth, supported by capacity expansion.
Incorporation of two new subsidiaries, a dedicated R&D facility, and two
manufacturing facilities will aid the Custom Synthesis business.
The developed market Generics business is set to grow meaningfully from FY23E,
supported by backward integration, making LAURUS a full-fledged Pharma company.
Laurus Bio is currently at the nascent stage and provides long-term opportunities for
LAURUS in the Biologics CDMO space.
We expect 29% earnings CAGR over FY21-23E, led by a 30%/42%/19% sales CAGR in
the FDF/Synthesis/API segment and ~80bp margin expansion.
Laurus Bio – additional lever for growth and diversification
Laurus Bio marks LAURUS’ entry into the Biotechnology space. It is looking to
explore CDMO opportunities to expand this division. New fermentation
capacities are partially commercialized currently and will be fully
commercialized by Sep’21.
It is in the process of finalizing plans to add a new facility, taking the total
fermentation capacity to 1m liters from 0.18m liters currently.
New projects/client additions to drive the Synthesis business
LAURUS is working with global innovators across clinical development and
commercial supplies. It is working on 50 projects currently in the CDMO
segment, up from 40 in FY20.
It is among the top five companies in reactor capacity in the CDMO space
globally. Its chemistry skill set, manufacturing efficiency, and consistent
compliance make it one of the preferred partners in the CDMO segment.
We expect 42% sales CAGR in the CDMO segment to INR10.5b over FY21-23E.
FDF – product buildup in the non-ARV space
On the non-ARV product front, LAURUS is building an ANDA pipeline in
therapeutic areas such as Cardiac/Diabetic and other non-ARV segments (28
filed/10 awaiting approval). It has 66 products under development for the
US/EU market, 80% of which are in the non-ARV category, with an addressable
market size of USD37b.
LAURUS is also investing in a greenfield expansion program, which will add a 4b
unit capacity by FY22-end. Around 75% of this greenfield capacity would be
used for non-ARV products.
Based on this, we expect a 42% sales CAGR in FDF over FY21-23E, reaching
INR33.5b by FY23E.

LAURUS is building a portfolio of non-ARV APIs and has now filed 66 DMFs in the
US to date. It has a healthy order book in the CVS, Cardiac, and Diabetic
therapies in the other API segment, for which it is also undertaking capacity
expansions.
We expect 9% CAGR in API sales over FY21-23E, with a ramp-up in non-ARV API
sales from FY23E.

Expect 29% EPS CAGR over FY21-23E
We expect a 29% earnings CAGR over FY21-23E, led by a 42%/42%/9% sales
CAGR in the FDF/Synthesis/API segment and ~80bp margin expansion. We value
LAURUS at 24x its 12-month forward earnings to arrive at our TP of INR800.
We remain positive on LAURUS on the back of: a) its venture into Biologics
CDMO, b) scale up in Synthesis CDMO, c) product development/addition
capacity in the non-ARV segment, especially for the US market, and d) a healthy
order book for the non-ARV API business, and e) low-cost based market
leadership in the ARV segment.
We reiterate our BUY rating.

Backward integration in Ibuprofen, at the Visakhapatnam facility, makes SOLARA one
of the only two fully backward integrated API players in the world.
The recently acquired ALS will enhance its Generic APIs capabilities and move
SOLARA ahead in the competitive landscape in CDMO.
Solara 2.0 lays down a path for accelerated growth, better profitability by FY25, and
aims to grow the CDMO segment faster than what it has done previously.

With backward integration in the Ibuprofen manufacturing process, SOLARA
has become one of the only two fully backward integrated Ibuprofen
manufacturers in the world. It will start accruing commercial benefits in coming
quarters. This will help it gain market share, improve margin, and navigate
price volatility in Ibuprofen.
It is on track to file 10-12 DMFs in the US in FY22. The acquired portfolio of
AURORE is expected to increase the breadth of SOLARA’s offerings due to
minimum overlap. The acquisition also adds an Anti-Viral product portfolio to
its offerings. The management expects to launch 25 products in FY22,
leveraging its ALS capabilities. We expect 31% CAGR in API sales to INR27b over
FY21-23E.
CRAMS adds differentiated capabilities to fast-track growth
SOLARA grew the opportunity pipeline by 40% QoQ. The management is now
focusing on increasing projects in the R&D stage. It intends to build its CRAMS
business through strong expertise in chemistry, and adds science-based
differentiation and technological capabilities. We expect CRAMS sales to
expand 4.5x to INR3.6b over FY21-23E.
Synergy benefits from the ALS acquisition to aid margin expansion
SOLARA expects INR1.5-2.2b in synergy benefits in the first year of operations
post the merger. It estimates savings of INR500-750m in overhead costs,
INR250-350m from R&D cost rationalization, INR250-300m in procurement,
and INR500-750m in additional gross profit from cross-selling opportunities.
Solara 2.0 aims at faster growth and better margin
SOLARA unveiled its goal of being among the top 10 global pure-play API
players. It is targeting 25% sales CAGR over FY21-25, 23-25% EBITDA margin,
and a 30% revenue contribution from CRAMS by FY25. Growth is expected to
be achieved through organic and inorganic expansion, including the recently
announced ALS acquisition.
