MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

Global pharmaceutical industry

 

The global pharmaceutical industry grew a healthy 7% to USD 837 bn in 2009, compared with a 4.8% growth rate in 2008. In 2009, global generics generated a substantial USD 83 bn in sales and this is expected to rise as generic firms eagerly await the patent expiration of several branded blockbuster drugs.

 

The global pharmaceutical market is expected to grow to USD 975 bn by 2013 and USD 1,110 bn by 2014. The 5%-8% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) during this period reflects the impact of leading products losing patent protection in developed markets, as well as strong growth in emerging countries like India and China (Source: IMS Health).

 

The geographic balance of the pharmaceutical market is shifting towards ‘pharmerging’ (pharma emerging) countries, which are expected to grow 14-17% through 2014, while major developed markets will grow 3-6%. As a result, the aggregate growth through 2014 from pharmerging markets will be similar to the growth experienced in developed markets – about USD 120-140 bn (Source: IFPW).

 

 

Indian pharmaceutical industry

 

India is the world’s third largest producer of pharmaceuticals (around 1.9% of the global market) by volume, accounting for 10% of the global share by volume and 14th by value. The Indian pharmaceutical industry has grown from a humble USD 0.3 bn in 1980 to approximately USD 21.83 bn in 2009-10, its growth largely driven by exports to more than 20 countries with a sizeable share to the advanced regulated markets of US and Western Europe (Source: Economic Survey, 2009-10).

 

The Indian pharma market is growing at a CAGR of 12-15% and will surpass the global average growth of 4-7% in 2008-13 (Source: First Global Research). The domestic formulation industry registered a CAGR of 14% during FY 2003-08 from around USD 3.9 bn to USD 7.7 bn, outpacing the global pharma industry growth rate of 7% (Source: The Financial Express, October 5, 2009).

 

The Indian pharma market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 18% in 2015, doubling revenues to USD 40 bn in five years. This growth will be driven by all verticals: domestic formulations, generic exports and more significantly, the CRAMS (contract research and manufacturing) opportunity (Source: expresspharmaonline.com).

 

 

Exports

 

In 2009, India’s exports of drugs, pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals stood at USD 9.5 bn, up by 29% y-o-y, as against USD 7.24 bn in 2007-08. Pharmaceutical exports grew at a five year CAGR of 17.8% for the 2003-08 period (Source: First Global Research).

 

Export prospects remain attractive, derived from the burgeoning global generic and CRAMS opportunity. These exports are likely to grow at a CAGR of 20-22% to USD 15-17 bn by 2010-11, fuelled by the growing generics and outsourcing opportunity in regulated markets (Source: Times of India, July 7, 2009).

 

Budget impact, 2010-11

 

• Customs duty was reduced from 10% to 5% on imports of select life saving drugs and their bulk actives for treating breast cancer, hepatitis and rheumatic arthritis, among others

 

• Customs duty reduced from 7.5% to 5% for two specified life saving devices used in the treatment of heart conditions. These devices are now fully exempt from excise duty and countervailing duty (CVD).

Generics

 

Global scenario

 

The global generics pharmaceutical market grew approximately 13% in 2009 to about USD 115 bn, about 15% of overall pharma (patented and generics) market. The generics pharma market registered 18% CAGR between 2004 and 2009. Patent expiry over the next three-five years will provide significant opportunities for generic players. The expiry of a patent leads to increased competition owing to the entry of generic players, which, in turn, results in price erosion (in some cases more than 90%). Even with such high price erosion, a robust growth opportunity exists for generics. Nearly USD 224 bn of patent expiries are expected over six years , indicating significant opportunity for generic players (Source: Centrum Research).

 

Over the next five years, products with sales of over USD 142 bn are expected to face generic competition in major developed markets. Collectively, the impact of patients shifting to lower cost generics in major therapy areas like cholesterol regulators, antipsychotics and antiulcerants will reduce total drug spending by about USD 80-100 bn worldwide by 2014 (Source: IFPW).

 

The US remains the largest opportunity for generic players as this market accounts for almost 41% of the global generics business in value terms. A pipeline of patent expiries will provide further impetus for generics. Generics prescription in the US market is estimated to have increased from 43% of total prescriptions in 2002, to 61% in 2007, indicating growing demand. Recent step towards reforming the US healthcare system by increasing the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) budget by 19% to  strengthen inspections and increase the number of generic drugs in the US market, will mean the FDA will have a budget of USD 3.2 bn in fiscal year 2010 (starts 1 October 2009) versus USD 2.7 bn in 2009, benefiting Indian generic players.

 

Indian scenario

 

The generics business will remain the principal growth driver of Indian pharma companies as patents of a number of major brands - Lipitor, Nexium, Advair etc – expire in the next few years. Indian generic players are well placed to capitalise on this opportunity with ready regulatory filings, technical capabilities and adequate manufacturing capacity.

 

CRAMS (contract research and manufacturing sector)

 

Global scenario

 

Most big pharma companies outsource their R and D and manufacturing activities to low cost countries like India and China. This model helps them reduce costs, improve productivity, focus on commercialisation and develop cost-effective business models.

 

The global CRAMS industry is expected to report a 14% CAGR over 2007-11 to USD 73 bn from USD 43 bn (17.6% CAGR in contract research and 11.4% in contract manufacturing) (Source: Centrum Research)

 

Indian CRAMS scenario

 

India’s share in the global CRAMS industry is less than 3% at about USD1.1 bn as on December 2009 (Source: Centrum Research). This means there is a scope for Indian pharma companies to enhance their CRAMS business with global partners. India’s contract manufacturing business was about USD 869 mn in 2007 and expected to register 37% CAGR over 2007-12. Contract research business was estimated at about USD 400 mn in 2007 and expected to grow to USD 3 bn in 2015. India has an advantage in terms of lower manufacturing and labour costs, regulatory advantage in terms of the largest number of US FDA (US Food and Drug Administration)-approved plants after the US and highest global drug master file filings and lower clinical trials cost compared with other developed nations.

 

India’s advantages of low production, competitive R and D costs, abundant qualified manpower and provision of diverse services (drug discovery, product development and formulation, preclinical and clinical trial management) have combined to create a global advantage in contract manufacture. These contract manufacturing organisations (CMOs) provide manufacturing capacities and capabilities to global pharmaceutical companies and value-added services like process development and process optimisation. Clinical trials (around 65% of the total outsourcing market of CROs) in India cost less than half the cost in western countries. India is set to witness robust growth in this space and account for over 7% of the global CRAMS market by 2013.

 

India is well-placed in accounting for larger CRAMS business on the back of strong capabilities to execute orders and regulatory approvals. India has the highest number (about 100) of US FD Aapproved plants outside the US, which attracts business from global pharma MNCs. India is way ahead of other countries like China and Italy with 55 and 22 US FDA-approved plants. India also leads the race in filing drug master files (DMF), with 46% share in global DMFs, which indicates sound regulatory compliance. Indian pharma has cumulatively filed more than 1,700 DMFs till 2008. The large number of DMF filings provides confidence to global outsourcers and also helps Indian pharma companies to gain business. On the regulatory front also, India is better placed in attracting CRAMS business (Source: Centrum Research).

 

Outlook

 

The Indian CRAMS sector is expected to register secular growth, of 29% over CY 2009-12E to USD 5.1 bn from USD 2.4 bn as all the drivers of outsourcing are intact (Source: SMR Research). The CRAMS business, which recorded revenues of USD 4 bn in 2007, is expected to grow about 25% and record revenues of USD 10 bn by 2015. Contract manufacturing activities of MNCs are likely to be a USD 7-8 bn opportunity by 2015, while the potential for contract RandD could amount to another USD 8-10 bn by 2020. By 2015, the overall CRAMS opportunity for Indian pharma companies could be around USD 18-20 bn (Source: First Global Research).

 

Domestic formulations sector

 

The Indian formulations market grew by 9.8% in 2008, lower than the 13.4% growth recorded in 2007. The lower rate was mainly on account of a reduction in inventory at the retail level owing to the global slowdown. Segment-wise, the growth was driven by the anti-diabetic, cardiac, gynecology and anti-infective segments. The size of the domestic pharma market was estimated at Rs. 341.2 bn in December 2008, with anti-infective, cardiovascular and gastro-intestinal being the leading categories.

 

The lifestyle pattern in India is undergoing a massive change, leading to increased lifestyle-related issues like obesity and stress among others, which in turn leads to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and diabetes. The anti-diabetic and cardiovascular markets are expected to grow at 18.5% CAGR and 14.7% over 2007-15, higher than the average industry growth rate of about 12%. Further, drugs for lifestyle diseases offer better price realisations compared with acute segments. The margins enjoyed in the lifestyle segments are about 35-40%, while in the acute segments margins are about 15-20%, increasing focus on the former.

 

Financial performance

 

Total revenue of the Company increased from Rs.1,051.71 mn in the previous year to Rs. 2,135.39 mn with a growth rate of 103%. Net profit increased from net loss of Rs. 471.41 mn in the previous year to Rs. 122.51 mn.

 

The Company invested Rs.220.000 million (2008-09: Rs.214.000 million) in research and development, which included Rs.213.000 million (2008-09: Rs.200.000 million) on the revenue account, which has been expensed in the books of account.

 

The company has deferred tax asset of Rs.235.000 million for the year ended March 31, 2010. However, the company has recognised only Rs.62.000 million during 2009-10 on a conservative basis, which is likely to be realised during the next financial year. The Company will be able to realise the entire Deferred Tax Assets of Rs.235 .000 million based on its future profitability.

 

Business Operations

 

The Company successfully accomplished major milestones by receiving regulatory approvals from US FDA, UK MHRA and Australia TGA without any major observations for its drug substance facility located at Visakhapatnam and Australia TGA for RandD center located at Hyderabad.

 

Total Revenue of the Company increased from Rs.1051.71 mn in the previous year to Rs.2,135.39 mn with a growth rate of 103%. Net profit of Rs. 122.51 mn increased from net loss of Rs. 471.41 mn during the previous year.

 

The Company has developed and commercialised around 36 products including five Nutraceutical products. The Company also manufactured several clinical trial materials to the customers. The Company also filed DMFs for 11 products in the regulatory markets.  The Company has filed 34 patents since inception, which strengthens its intellectual property capability to realise commercial benefits over a period of time.

 

The Company has a net deferred tax asset of Rs. 234.52 mn as against Rs. 219.40 mn in the previous year. However based on virtual certainty and on conservative basis during the year the Company has recognised deferred tax asset (net) of Rs. 62.00 mn. The Company expects to realise the entire deferred tax asset based on future profitability.

 

The Company continued its focus on Research and Development and incurred an amount of Rs. 220.46 mn on RandD drug substances. With reference to Clause [ix (a)] of Annexure to Auditors Report, it is clarified that “during the last financial year there were a few instances of slight delay in payment of income taxes and professional tax and steps were taken to ensure that such instances do not recur.”
