History

 

Subject was established in 1990 as a Research & Development company to develop processes for API & Intermediates and to provide turnkey solutions to the industry. In 1994 the name of the company was changed to Divi's Laboratories Limited. The company is headed by Murali K Divi as Chairman & Managing Director. In 1995, the company's first manufacturing unit was built on a 300 acre site comprising of 11 multi-purpose production blocks. 

 
The company's plant at Choutuppal Mandal, Nalgonda District is having 11 multi-purpose production blocks primarily manufacturing active pharmaceutical ingredients and intermediates for generics, advanced intermediates for discovery compounds, cartenoids, protecting agents and building blocks for peptide chemistry and nucleotide chemistry. 

 
During 1991 the company successfully developed commercial processes for intermediates and bulk actions & supply to manufacturing enterprises. In 2000 the company was awarded ISO 9001 certification by SGS-Yarsley. 

 
The Company product portfolio has about 90 products covering Generic Products and New Chemistries comprising Custom Synthesis of APIs & Intermediates for MNC, Peptide Building Overseas and Carotenoids etc. The company is the first company to develop and manufacture synthetic carotenoids and also the largest manufacturer of some peptide reagents and protected amino acids world-wide. 

 
The company has taken up a development of a new site in 2002 at Chippada village 35 KM from Visakhapatnam. The commercial production is slated to commence by March 2003. The total estimated outlay on this facility was Rs.402.200 Millions. The above plant will not only increase the capacity of API and also provide comfort to the company's multinational customers for assured supply of products. 

 
The company is coming out with an IPO through book building route and the offer size is 3.205 Millions equity shares of Rs.10 each comprising fresh issue of 1.270 Millions shares and an offer for sale of 1.935  Millions  shares. The floor price has been fixed at Rs.130 per share and the issue is open from February 17,2003 to February 21,2003. After the public issue the total equity has increased to Rs.128.200 Millions from Rs 115.500  Millions  
 
The company has increased its installed capacity of Active Pharma Ingredients & Intermediates by 200 MTs and with this expansion the total installed capacity of Active Pharma Ingredients & Intermediates has increased to 2000 MTs. 

 
The company has invested an amount of Rs.303.521 Millions towards capital expenditure at its manufacturing facilities at Choutuppal (Unit-I) and Chippada (Unit-II) for additional machinery installed at both Unit-I and Unit-II for enhancing he production capacity. Further the company has commissioned a new pilot plant at Unit-2 and also a new Research Centre with 60 work stations, which became fully operational during the year. The company has also installed additional Laboratory instruments at the Research centres.  

 
The company is in the process of setting up an Export Oriented Unit with a capital investment of Rs.350 millions at its Unit-2.

 

 

PERFORMANCE AND OPERATIONS REVIEW 

 
During the year, Divi's achieved a turnover of Rs.7244.200 Millions as against Rs. 3811.100 Millions during the previous year reflecting a growth of 90%. As has been the norm for the company, exports constituted 93% of total turnover and exports to advanced markets comprising Europe and America accounted for 75% of business. Other Income earned during the year stood at Rs.136.100 Millions as against Rs. 106.200 Millions in the previous year. Expenses for the year included a charge of Rs.241.100 Millions on account of stock options granted to employees. Profit after Tax (PAT) grew by about 172% to Rs.1917.400 Millions as against Rs. 704.700 Millions during the previous year. 

 
Earnings Per Share for the year works out to Rs.149.54 per share as against Rs. 54.98 last year on absolute basis and to Rs.147.77 per share as against Rs. 53.94 last year on diluted basis. 

 
They could achieve this substantial growth due to the continued pursuit of their strategy to work with multi-national innovator companies developing compounds under custom synthesis besides a strategic positioning on their range of generic products in international domain duly supported by their capital expenditure programs. 

 
The newly commissioned SEZ Unit has also contributed to business during the year. This structure is able to provide a convenient mechanism for big pharma companies for sourcing their custom compounds, as it is an efficient platform for international business. Investments made during the year, with multi-purpose capacities created supporting improved safety and environment management capabilities, are able to attract greater business in custom synthesis business. Divi's is now recognised as a strategic long term supplier by some of the leading innovator companies. This would ensure a continuing flow of opportunities to Divi's. The strategic size reached in some of the generic APIs has made Divi's a supplier of choice for major customers including branded generic manufacturers, which ensures business from these customers on a long term basis. With the marketing arms in place in Europe and USA, they will be able to have a wider reach in the advanced markets, meet supply chain requirements of customers in these markets and enhance their business. 

 

CHANGES IN SHARE CAPITAL 

 
The company has allotted 92720 equity shares during the year at the par value of Rs. 10/- each to employees upon exercise of options under its Employee stock option scheme. Consequently, the paid up capital of the company as on 31st March, 2007, stands increased by Rs. 0.900 Millions to Rs.129.100 Millions. The new shares rank pari passu in all respects with the existing equity shares of the company. Approval has been obtained from NSE and BSE for listing of the new shares on the stock exchanges. 

 
SUBSIDIARIES 
 
The company incorporated, during late last year, two 100% subsidiaries viz., M/s. Divis Laboratories (USA) Inc., in USA and M/s. Divi's Laboratories Europe AG in Switzerland for marketing its products and a greater reach to customers within these regions. The low level of operations of the subsidiaries during the year resulted in net loss, mainly a result of salaries and administrative expenses. The subsidiaries would undertake full scale marketing operations with the ensuing commencement of commercial operations of the nutraceutics project. 

Management Discussion and Analysis 

Overview 
 
The financial statements have been prepared in compliance with the requirements of the Companies Act, 1956 and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) in India. The management of Divi's Laboratories accepts responsibility for the integrity and objectivity of these financial statements as well as for various estimates and judgments used therein.

These estimates and judgments relating to the financial statements have been made on a prudent and reasonable basis, in order that the statements reflect, in a true and fair manner, the state of affairs and profits for the year. This report may also contain certain statements that the company believes are or may be considered to be forward looking statements' which are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. 

Industry and structure 

The company is engaged in manufacture of generic APIs, custom synthesis of active ingredients and intermediates for innovator companies and other speciality chemicals like peptide building blocks and Nutraceuticals.

During 2006, the global pharmaceutical market grew by 7% to US $643 billion which includes prescription and OTC drugs. US market accounts for a little over 50% of the total market. The component for the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients business (API) is estimated about 5 to 7% of the pharma market i.e, between US $ 32 to 45 billion. The US generic market, which represents over 50% of the global revenues, is witnessing increased pressures about rising healthcare costs. This market stands amongst the highest in terms of healthcare spends compared to other countries. 

Over the last 3 decades, the Indian pharmaceutical industry has gained considerable expertise and skills in handling complex chemical reactions and manufacture under cGMP conditions and now ranks fourth globally in terms of output volume and thirteenth in value terms. The onset of full compliance to patent regime in place in India effective 2005, and with the cost-competitive structure and intricate chemistry handling capabilities that Indian companies have demonstrated, there will be a more conducive atmosphere for outsourcing by big pharma companies resulting in major opportunities to Indian pharma companies committed to intellectual property rights (IPR) and playing a complementary role to the innovators. 

Company infrastructure 

Divi's operates from its Headquarters and Registered Office at Hyderabad.

The company has three manufacturing facilities: 

* The 1st Facility at village Lingojigudem, Choutuppal Mandal, Nalgonda district, about 60 KM from Hyderabad. 
 
* The 2nd Facility has been converted during the year as an Export Oriented Unit at village Chippada, Bheemunipatnam Mandal, Visakhapatnam Dist. about 30 KM from the Port City of Visakhapatnam on the east coast. 
 
* The 3rd facility is an SEZ Unit at village Chippada, Bheemunipatnam Mandal, Visakhapatnam Dist., which was commissioned and commenced commercial operations during the year. 

The company has 4 Research Centers with well defined functional focus on custom synthesis, contract research for MNC companies as also future generics involving processes like route design, route selection, establishing gram scale process and structural confirmation, process optimization, impurity profile, pilot studies, pre-validation batches, validation of process and transfer of technology to Plant and review efficiency of processes.
