Today’s top research theme

  • Lupin: Goa and Indore plant receives Warning Letter; ~1/3rd of pending ANDAs from these two facilities
  • LPC's Goa/Indore plants have been issued a warning letter (WL) by USFDA. Key points highlighted: 1) investigation of OOS studies was not proper and 2) hold time study procedure requires changes.
  • Out of 158 pending ANDAs, 40-50 are from these two plants. Early resolution is thus crucial. Meanwhile, LPC plans to initiate site transfer for ~12 key ANDAs.
  • Notably, no data integrity issue was highlighted by FDA. LPC believes it will be ready for a re-inspection in six months. We assume resolution of WL by 2HFY19E.
  • Although near-term stock performance should come under pressure, key approvals in US/resolution of WL should create value in 12-18 months. Maintain Buy with TP of INR1,000 @ 20x 1HFY20E PER (v/s INR1,215 @21x 1HFY20E PER). We cut FY19E EPS by ~17% as we build in impact of WL.
