INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

India is developing into an open-market economy, yet traces of its past autarkic policies remain. Economic liberalization, including industrial deregulation, privatization of state-owned enterprises, and reduced controls on foreign trade and investment, began in the early 1990s and has served to accelerate the country's growth, which has averaged more than 7% per year since 1997. India's diverse economy encompasses traditional village farming, modern agriculture, handicrafts, a wide range of modern industries, and a multitude of services. Slightly more than half of the work force is in agriculture, but services are the major source of economic growth, accounting for more than half of India's output, with only one-third of its labor force. India has capitalized on its large educated English-speaking population to become a major exporter of information technology services and software workers. In 2010, the Indian economy rebounded robustly from the global financial crisis - in large part because of strong domestic demand - and growth exceeded 8% year-on-year in real terms. However, India's economic growth in 2011 slowed because of persistently high inflation and interest rates and little progress on economic reforms. High international crude prices have exacerbated the government's fuel subsidy expenditures contributing to a higher fiscal deficit, and a worsening current account deficit. Little economic reform took place in 2011 largely due to corruption scandals that have slowed legislative work. India's medium-term growth outlook is positive due to a young population and corresponding low dependency ratio, healthy savings and investment rates, and increasing integration into the global economy. India has many long-term challenges that it has not yet fully addressed, including widespread poverty, inadequate physical and social infrastructure, limited non-agricultural employment opportunities, scarce access to quality basic and higher education, and accommodating rural-to-urban migration.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

Incorporated in 1984, Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories Limited (‘Dr. Reddy’s’ or ‘the Company’) is a global pharmaceutical major with its presence in over 25 countries.

 

The Company’s purpose is to provide affordable and innovative medicines for healthier lives, which it does through:

·         Pharmaceutical Services and Active Ingredients (PSAI), comprising of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) and Custom Pharmaceuticals Services (CPS).

·         Global Generics (GG) businesses, which includes branded and unbranded prescription and overthe- counter (OTC) pharmaceutical products.

·         Proprietary Products (PP), comprising of Biosimilars, Differentiated Formulations and New Chemical Entities (NCEs).

 

Strong growth across key businesses of:

 

·         North America (68% growth over FY2011) driven by new launches and volume expansion in key existing products.

·         Russia (23% growth over FY 2011) driven by volume expansion in existing products.

·         Pharmaceutical Services and Active Ingredients (PSAI) (21% growth over FY2011) driven by new launches.

 

KEY HIGHLIGHTS FOR FY2012

 

1. Fastest Indian pharmaceutical company to cross USD 2 billion in revenue.

 

Dr. Reddy’s became the fastest Indian pharmaceutical company to cross USD 2 billion in sales, which it did within four years of crossing the USD 1 billion milestone.

 

2. Revenues were up 30% and profits up by 45%(1) over previous year.

 

This was driven by:

 

Blockbuster launch of the generic drug, olanzapine, in the US under a 180-day marketing exclusivity. Dr. Reddy’s along with its marketing partner launched olanzapine 20 mg tablets, the generic version of the brand Zyprexa® under a 180-day marketing exclusivity. Olanzapine is used to treat schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Annual sales of Zyprexa® were approximately USD 3.2 billion in the US as of September 2011 (Source: IMS sales). This product has contributed around USD 100 million to the Company’s revenues for FY2012.

 

3. Limited Competition generics were key differentiators and contributed 32% of US sales.

 

Successful launches of limited competition generics has allowed the Company to increasingly focus on market segments with relatively high entry barriers and limited competition — thus providing avenues of sustainable growth. Four of Dr. Reddy’s top five products in the US are such: tacrolimus, lansoprazole, omeprazole Mg (over-the-counter) and fondaparinux. The combined revenue from our basket of limited competition products in FY2012 crossed a milestone of USD 200 million and represented around 10% of the Company’s overall revenue.

 

4. Over-the-counter (OTC) pharmaceutical portfolio becoming a key part of the Company’s diversification strategy.

 

OTC pharmaceutical products represent interesting and often profitable adjacencies in some markets. In FY2012, sales from the Company’s OTC portfolio across markets grew by 75% and have crossed a significant milestone of USD 200 million. Today, it represents almost 10% of Dr. Reddy’s total revenues.

 

·         North America: Since the launch of its first OTC product in FY2009, the Company has successfully brought in a variety of newer OTC products to the market. At present it has a US OTC portfolio of 11 products including omeprazole Mg, fexofenadine and ranitidine. Revenue in North America operations from OTC products in FY2012 was over USD 100 million with a growth of 120% over the previous year.

 

·         Russia and CIS: The Company has seen consistently robust performance over the years and has built a strong OTC portfolio over the last four years. Some key OTC products include Cetrine, Senade, and Nise Gel. The OTC contribution to total Russia and CIS revenues have increased from less than 10% in FY2008 to about 30% in FY2012, representing a growth of 33% over FY2011.

 

5. Laying the foundation for the future.

 

This comprises three elements:

·         Strengthening biosimilars portfolio: Biosimilars are approved similar versions of innovator biopharmaceutical products following patent and exclusivity expiry of the innovator product. The current biosimilars portfolio of Dr. Reddy’s comprises (i) filgrastim, (ii) pegfilgrastim, (iii) rituximab and (iv) darbepoetin alfa, with commercial presence in 13 countries among emerging markets. Additionally, filings in 20 new countries await approval, and progress is being made in pursuing the regulated markets. The Company’s global biosimilars sale for FY2012 was USD 26 million or a growth of 45% over FY2011. Revenues from biosimilars have shown a CAGR of 39% from FY2008.

 

·         Foray into the Japanese generics market: Japan is the world’s second largest pharmaceutical market, estimated to be USD 97 billion as per IMS research agency. The generics market is characterized by low penetration — only 23% of Japanese prescription drug sales by volume comprise generics, versus 70% in the US. Dr. Reddy’s has been working with its partner, Fujifilm, for developing, manufacturing and promoting generic drugs in Japan. The new joint venture has 51% stake owned by Fujifilm, and 49% by Dr. Reddy’s. The plans are to design products that fit the specific requirements of the Japanese market, and thus deliver high quality generic drugs. It intends to launch its first products in Japan in the next three to four years.

 

·         Continuing focus on research and development (R&D): Investments in R&D in FY2012 grew by 17% to approximately USD 125 million, or 6% of sales. About two-thirds were spent towards generics development, and the balance one-third was dedicated to innovator and biologics research.

 

 

DR. REDDY’S MARKET PERFORMANCE

 

GLOBAL GENERICS

 

Global Generics revenue increased by 32% during FY2012 over the previous year.

 

North America

 

In FY2012, North America generics revenue increased by 68% over the previous year, to Rs. 31,889 million. This growth was largely driven by new product launches such as fondaparinux, olanzapine, ziprasidone and market share expansion in existing products such as tacrolimus, omeprazole mg OTC and lansoprazole. During the year, the Company launched 16 new products including the Company’s opportunity for first-tofile launches of olanzapine (generic version of the brand Zyprexa®) and ziprasidone (generic version of the brand Geodon®). The product olanzapine contributed around USD 100 million in revenues for FY2012.

 

In FY2012, the OTC portfolio crossed USD 100 million and recorded a growth of 120%. About a third of the North America revenues were contributed by our limited competition basket of products and the same crossed a significant milestone of USD 200 million.

 

Russia and other CIS countries

 

Revenues in Russia and CIS countries grew by 22% to Rs. 13,260 million in FY2012 over the previous year. The growth in Russia was 23% over previous year largely driven by volume increase in key brands such as Cetrine, Keterol and Senade. Table 2 gives the data of the company’s key brands in Russia. Dr. Reddy’s secondary sales growth in Russia of 21% continues to outperform the industry growth of 17% (Pharmexpert data for MAT March 2012). Consequently, the Company’s rank has improved from 15th in FY2011 to 13th in FY2012.

 

During the year, the Company launched 14 new products. OTC sales which accounted for 29% of the overall Russian portfolio in FY2012 grew by 39% over the previous year.

 

Europe

 

Revenues from Europe region fell by 2% to Rs. 8,259 million. This was on account of a 7% decline in Germany, largely due to the pricing challenges resulting from the continuing shift of the German generic pharmaceutical market moving onwards a tender (i.e., competitive bidding) based supply model. However, the decline was partially offset by launch of new products which were outside the scope of tender business. The rest of Europe showed a growth of 8% in revenue, largely driven by the out licensing of products.

 

India

 

Revenues in India grew by 11% during FY2012 to Rs. 12,931 million. The growth was primarily on account of volume increase across brands and new product launches.

 

The Company’s focus according to therapeutic areas (TAs) is on gastro-intestinal, cardiovascular, diabetes, oncology, pain management and dermatology. In FY2012, the top five therapeutical segments (excluding pain management) grew at 16%. In FY2012, Dr. Reddy’s forayed into the OTC segment with the launch of Velocit (women healthcare) and Nise Gel (pain management).

 

Rest of the World (RoW)

 

Revenues from RoW markets increased by 16% to Rs. 3,904 million in FY2012. This was largely contributed by South Africa, Australia and other south Asian markets, offset by muted growth in Venezuela which was impacted by currency devaluation.

 

PHARMACEUTICAL SERVICES AND ACTIVE INGREDIENTS (PSAI)

 

In FY2012, revenues from the PSAI segment grew by 21% to reach Rs. 23,812 million.

 

The growth was led by sale of active ingredients to generic customers and a strong recovery of customer orders in the services segment.

 

Geographical revenue from this segment is as under:

 

·         Revenue from Europe grew by 20% to Rs. 8,424 million in FY2012, largely on account of major new product launches of ibandronate sodium and escitalopram, and higher sales from existing products.

 

·         Revenue from North America increased by 35% to Rs. 4,272 million—largely on account of new product launch of ziprasidone and higher sales from clopidogrel.

 

·         Revenue from India and RoW increased by 18% to Rs. 11,116 million.

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

The Company believes that its focus on profitable growth and targeting a leadership position in Global Generics and PSAI will create significant value in the near term. It is addressing the need for infrastructure and capacity increases to meet future growth.

 

In Global Generics, improving depth through portfolio expansion, consistent delivery of limited competition products and supply chain excellence should lead to a leadership position in key markets.

 

In the PSAI segment, the objective is to be the partner of choice by creating compelling value for customers through leveraging IP, technology and cost leadership. In Proprietary Products, the aim is to create a viable business by calibrating investments to produce a self sustainable model.

 

The Company expects a positive outlook for the next year. The largest increment of growth is expected to be contributed by the North America generics business. It also expects continued momentum from its key emerging markets.

 

In a dynamic business environment, the Company’s base business model in pharmaceuticals is exposed to considerable volatility, both upwards and downwards. While the upsides create non-linear value for the organization, there is a conscious attempt to protect it against the downsides.

Notice to US holders of OctoPlus Shares


The Offer will be made for the securities of a Dutch company and is subject to Dutch disclosure requirements, which are different from those of the United States. Some of the financial information included in this announcement has been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and thus may not be comparable to financial information of US companies or companies whose financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The Offer will be made in the United States pursuant to the applicable US tender offer rules and otherwise in accordance with the requirements of the Dutch Public Takeover Decree. Accordingly, the Offer will be subject to disclosure and other procedural requirements, including with respect to withdrawal rights, offer timetable, settlement procedures and timing of payments, that are different from those applicable under US domestic tender offer procedures and law.

The receipt of cash pursuant to the Offer by a US holder of OctoPlus shares may be a taxable transaction for US federal income tax purposes and under applicable state and local, as well as foreign and other tax laws. Each holder of OctoPlus shares is urged to consult his independent professional advisor immediately regarding the tax consequences of acceptance of the offer.

 

It may be difficult for US holders of OctoPlus shares to enforce their rights and claims arising out of the US federal securities laws, since OctoPlus is located in a country other than the United States, and some or all of its officers and directors may be residents of a country other than the United States. US holders of OctoPlus shares may not be able to sue a non-US company or its officers or directors in a non-US court for violations of the US securities laws. Further, it may be difficult to compel a non-US company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a US court’s judgment.

 

In accordance with normal Dutch practice and pursuant to Rule 14e-5(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Dr. Reddy's or its nominees, or its brokers (acting as agents), may from time to time make certain purchases of, or arrangements to purchase, OctoPlus shares outside of the United States, other than pursuant to the Offer, before or during the period in which the Offer remains open for acceptance. These purchases may occur either in the open market at prevailing prices or in private transactions at negotiated prices. Any information about such purchases will be disclosed as required in the Netherlands, will be reported to the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets (Stichting Autoriteit Financiële Markten) and disclosed in the offer memorandum or by press release.
