Subject is a globally recognized, integrated pharmaceutical company with core competencies in the development and manufacture of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) and Finished Dosage Forms as well as in drug discovery, which was incorporated on 1st July 1992 as a 100% Export Oriented Unit (EOU). Subject has two manufacturing sites for APIs (at Alathur near Chennai and at Aurangabad, near Mumbai) and three manufacturing sites for Dosage forms (at Irungattukottai and Alathur in Chennai), besides two R and D centres (at Sholinganallur and Irungattukottai, Chennai), all are state-of-the-art and have several international regulatory approvals, including the US FDA and UK MHRA. Subject's API facilities are ISO certified for their quality, environmental management and operational health and safety systems. Subject has a Joint Venture in China for manufacturing sterile APIs.

 
The Company commenced its operation in the year 1994, also in the same year; Subject had entered into an agreement with SBD Laboratories Italy for technology for keeping production in sterile condition. Subject became the youngest Indian pharmaceutical company to be awarded the ISO 9002 certification in 1997. During the same year of 1997, the company made a tie-up with Technology Innovative Industry of Italy and also launched a range of new products in the steriles category. In 1998, Subject, along with Cipla and Ranbaxy, had received approval from the Drug Controller of India (DCI) for the manufacture and export of sildenafil citrate, the main ingredient in Viagra, the drug developed by Pfizer to treat human male erectile dysfunction; by the way it had entered into the formulation market.

  
The Trophy for Excellent Performance in Exports was awarded to the company as part of the National Export Awards Programme for the year 1998-99. The initial range of products was launched by the company in 1999, which includes three injectable cephalosporin formulations and two coprescription analgesics of the NSAID category. These are Tax-O-bid (Cefotaxime injection), Cefogram (Ceftriaxone injection), Orzid (Ceftazidime injection), Orchidol (Tramadol tablets) and N-Limited (Nimesulide dispersible tablets. In the year 2000, Orchid had signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Mumbai-based Ajanta Pharma Limited to acquire the latter's bulk drugs manufacturing plant located at Aurangabad. During the year 2001, the company had issued foreign currency convertible bonds to International finance Corporation. Subject had inked a 50:50 joint venture alliance pact with a California-based drug discovery research firm Bexel Biotechnology Inc in the year of 2002.  

 
During the year 2003, the company had acquired Mano Pharmaceuticals for a consideration of Rs.260 millions and also in the same year received a formal approval from US Food and Drug Administration for Cephalaxin. Subject signed a pact with Par Pharmaceuticals Inc in 2004 to market oral cephalosporin formulations in US market. In 2005, the company made pact with Alpharma Inc to market oral non-antibiotic formulations in US and European markets and also entered into agreement with STADA Pharmaceuticals, Inc (USA). In 2006, Subject had signed a deal with Biovitrum in drug discovery field. The Company received approval from the US FDA for its ANDAs (abbreviated new drug application) for Cefdinir for capsules 300 mg and Cefdinir for oral suspension in July 2007.

 
In April 2008, Subject formed a wholly owned subsidiary Orchid Pharma Japan K K (Orchid Japan) to foray into the high potential Japanese generics market and in August of the same year 2008 received approvals of its marketing authorization (MA) for piperacillin and tazobactam for injection for marketing in the EU countries. The Company made a strategic research collaboration and license agreement with Merck and Co in September 2008 focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of novel agents for the treatment of bacterial and fungal infections.

 

PERFORMANCE

 

During 2010-11, The Company achieved a turnover and operating income of Rs.16633.400 Millions compared to Rs 12498.300 Millions in 2009-10. The gross earnings before interest, depreciation and taxes stood at Rs 4180.200 Millions for the current financial year. The gross earnings for the previous year included the profit on sale of undertaking and thus not comparable. After providing for interest expense of Rs 1157.600 Millions (Rs 2412.300 Millions previous fiscal) and depreciation of Rs 1284.500 Millions (Rs.1511.000 Millions previous fiscal), the profit before tax of the Company was Rs 1738.100 Millions. The net profit after tax stood at Rs.1594.800 Millions, compared to the net profit after tax of Rs 3313.400 Millions in the previous fiscal. However, figures for the previous year ended March 31, 2010 are not comparable as they include the sale consideration received by the Company on account of sale and transfer of its Injectable formulation business to Hospira in March 2010.

 

PHARMACEUTICALS BUSINESS

 

The key highlight of their performance was the change in the business strategy where they moved away from a supply push approach to a demand pull business model. This is reflected in growing number of long-term contracts with large global pharmaceutical companies. These long term business agreements provide clear revenue visibility and allowed for improved business planning and management which strengthened business profitability and liquidity. The API-supply arrangement performed significantly well, registering higher than expected business volumes. The newly acquired front-end marketing Company, Karalex Pharma, LLC, in the US delivered heartening results.

 

They expanded their contractual business with Hospira to supply API for their Add Vantage vials (patented technology) which will generate superior returns for the Company over the medium term. They settled five Para IV products, out of which four are FTF applications, which will allow them to market products in the US. These represent attractive opportunities over the coming years.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

THE PHARMACEUTICAL SECTOR

 

Global Pharmaceutical Market

 

The global pharmaceutical market was estimated at US$ 875 billion, of which the US market, the largest, accounted for roughly 38%.

 

According to IMS Health, the global pharmaceutical market is expected to grow 5-7% in 2011, compared to 4-5% in 2010. Growth will be driven by low-cost factors, increasing prevalence of diseases and rising per capita income.

 

Global generics market: The global generics market was worth about US$ 89 billion in 2009-10 and is expected to reach US$ 135 billion by 2015, growing at a 10% CAGR.

 

The US generics market: The US is the world’s largest generics market, estimated at US$ 30 billion. Drugs worth US$ 68 billion should witness generic competition in the US over the next two years; this increase is higher than the average annual patent expiry of US$ 16 billion over CY06-10.

 

The US administration’s healthcare bill provides affordable healthcare to about 32 million people of hitherto uninsured Americans, which means increased use of generic drugs due to the cost and viability factor, accelerating generic growth in the coming years.

 

Currently, Indian companies account for 15.4% (November 2010 IMS data) of the US generics market. Indian companies continue to gain market share, and the incremental prescription market share for Indian companies is 33.7%.

 

European generics market: Europe is the second-largest global generics market, accounting for about 29% of the global generics space.

 

European generics represent around 50% in volume and 18% in value terms of the total European pharmaceutical market. It is noteworthy that generic drug makers spend over 7% of their turnover on development in the fields of bio-similar medicines and difficult-to-make molecules (Source: European Generics Association).

 

In 2010, Central Europe’s generic drug market increased 12%, whereas that of original medicines grew only about 10%. It is expected that in the near future, there will not be any significant increase in the share of innovative medicines, as governments in Central Europe (Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Slovakia and the Czech Republic), have been promoting generic consumption, resulting in limited spending on expensive innovative medicines.

 

Moreover, with an ageing population and member states’ healthcare budgets under pressure, generic medicines are now a key element of sustainable healthcare. They save over 30 billion euros for chemical entities and 1.4 billion euros for bio-similar medicines annually. This not only strengthens the European healthcare system, but also increases patient access to generic medicines.

 

Japanese Generic Market:

 

This market was valued at more than US$ 7.3 billion in 2009. With low penetration at about 6% in value terms, it is the world’s third-largest generic market. Going forward, strong promotional activities and Japan’s ageing population are expected to drive growth. Further, the bilateral free trade agreement signed in February 2011 (the FTA will abolish 90% of trade duties for 10 years) will provide a stimulus for exports to Japan. According to RNCOS, Japan is likely to clock a 8% CAGR to reach US$ 10 billion by 2013.

 

Global CRAMs Opportunity:

 

The global pharmaceutical outsourcing market was estimated at US$ 67 billion in 2010 and is expected to grow at a 14% CAGR (2007–2012) to reach US$ 85 billion by 2012.

 

INDIA’S PHARMACEUTICAL MARKET

 

OVERVIEW

 

• The Indian pharmaceutical industry ranks third by drug volume (10% of global share) and fourteenth by value - about US$ 24.8 billion (3% of global sales).

 

• The industry is growing at around 1.5-1.6 times the country's GDP growth

 

• Industry growth is propelled primarily by exports, expanding 18.7% CAGR to US$ 9 billion in 2009-10 (2005-2010). During the same period, the domestic market grew at 13.5% CAGR to US$ 13.8 billion.

 

• Indian drug makers exported their products to 220 countries, with the majority of shipped products being formulations (56%), while bulk drugs accounted for just over 40%.

 

• The Indian drug retail market surpassed US$ 10.42 billion (Rs 465000.000 Millions) till November 2010, compared with the last corresponding period.

 

• The Indian pharmaceutical market growth continues to be driven by formulations for chronic therapies; acute therapies are expected to be largely driven by Tier-III cities and rural penetration.

 

DEMAND DRIVERS

 

India’s low per capita expenditure on health is expected to correct to the global average, owing to steady economic growth, increasing disposable incomes and growing health awareness.

 

• Per capita income in rural areas is expected to increase from Rs.19000 at present to Rs.24000 by 2015, resulting in increased pharma spending.

 

• Semi-urban and rural markets are expected to be the key growth drivers. According to McKinsey, these markets will add 46 million households with high and medium affordability levels.

 

• Indian drug prices increased by only 1-2% annually over the last decade according to the IMS; per capita income of the average Indian accelerated 16.7% between 2006-07 and 2010-11, making healthcare more affordable.

 

• Indian government spending on healthcare increased 20% CAGR over the last four years (US$ 6.7 billion in 2005-06 to US$ 11.7 billion in 2008-09). The Government of India plans to cover 45% of India’s population by 2020.

 

• The government plans to establish a Rs 20 billion venture capital fund to promote drug discovery and strengthen infrastructure in the pharma sector to boost local innovation.

 

ESTIMATES

 

• Socio-economic factors such as rising income levels, increasing affordability, gradual penetration of health insurance and rise in chronic diseases will see the Indian formulation market touch US$ 13.7 billion by 2013 based on a 12.2% CAGR.

 

• There are immense opportunities for Indian generic firms in the US, Europe, Japan and Australia, owing to 50% lower production costs than in western nations – Indian R and D costs 1/8th and clinical trials cost 1/10th of western counterparts. Moreover, branded drugs going off-patent in the near future are likely to create a huge market for generic drugs in the US. Similarly, a number of regions are looking towards India as a supplier of quality generics.

 

India emerged as a prominent global supplier of high quality generic drugs, with the potential to cater to 10% of the total market by 2015.

 

India is expected to rank among the top 10 global pharmaceutical markets by 2015.

 

Indian CRAMS sector

 

The opportunity for CRAMS in India is large. US companies have reduced their R and D spending in the recent past. These companies are outsourcing their R and D to reduce their operating expenses and hence, shift base to low-cost destinations, possessing high chemistry skills, making India and China preferred outsourcing destinations.

 

The Indian pharmaceutical outsourcing providers possess capabilities to provide late stage discovery (research chemistry) and drug development services. However, they are in the process of building research biology skills to facilitate early stage discovery.

 

The Indian contract research industry grew at a 65% CAGR (2007-10) to reach around US$ 1.5 billion in 2010, outpacing the 15% growth in the global contract research market over the same period (the global market stood at US$ 25 billion in 2010).

 

Contract manufacturing operations are the largest contributors (more than 60%) to the total CRAMS earnings. India has emerged as a master in value engineering products, which are similar to patented products in a non-infringing manner, strengthening its expertise to challenge patents in the US FDA, which was perceived as a threat to global companies. However, the Indian Patent Protection Amendment Act, 2005 addressed these threats and opened larger opportunities for contract research operations from regulated markets. Credible estimates suggest that the Indian CRAMS space is expected to grow at 15% over the medium term.
