Q1FY20 result highlights
Impact on financials: Increase FY20 earnings by 7% to account for higher other income
Valuations & view
DRL’s Q1 results are a mixed bag with the lower GMs mitigating the positive of strong revenue growth in US and India. At a broader level, 37% EBITDA growth in FY19 despite 8% yoy decline in US generic sales underlines the significant operational turnaround in DRL’s business in recent quarters. EM sales growth combined with cost rationalization focus have enabled strong earnings recovery despite limited contribution from the US business over this period. This has created a strong platform for medium term growth with the anticipated pick-up in US sales adding to the momentum. DRL has one of the most valuable ANDA pipeline amongst peers which should deliver going forward. Delay in big ticket launches (reflected in multiple delays in gNuvaring / gCopaxone guidance) remain a risk to estimates. While the worst is likely behind, we believe that the turnaround is largely priced in at current levels. Maintain Neutral with target price of 2782 (18x FY21E).
