INDIAN ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

 

N E W S

 

The economy grew 4.7 %in 2013/14, marking a second straight year of sub-5 % growth – the worst slowdown in more than a quarter of a century. The data was below an official estimate of 4.9 % annual growth and compared with 4.5 % in the last fiscal year. However, the current account deficit narrowed sharply to $ 32.4 billion at 1.7 % of gross domestic product, in 2013/14 from a record high of $ 98.8 billion or 4.7 %, the year before. A sharp fall in gold imports due to restrictions on overseas purchases and muted import of capital goods helped shrink the current account deficit.

 

Online retailer Flipkart has acquired fashion portal Myntra as it prepares to battle with the rapidly expanding India arm of the global e-commerce giant Amazon. The company raised $ 210 million from Russian Investment firm DST Global which has also invested in companies like Facebook, Twitter and Alibaba Group.

 

General Motors will start exporting vehicles from its Talegaon plant near Pune in the second half of 2014. GM was one of the few global carmakers that was using its India plant only for the domestic market.

Infosys lost another heavy weight when B G Srinivas, a board member put in his papers. He is the third CEO-hopeful to quit after Chairman N R Narayana Murthy’s return to the company – Ashok Vemuri and V Balakrishnan being the other two. While Vemuri went on to lead IGate, Balakrishnan joined politics.

 

Naresh Goyal – promoted Jet Airways posted biggest quarterly loss – Rs 2153.37 crore – in the three months ended March 31, mainly because it has been offering discounts to passengers to fill planes.

 

William S Pinckney – Chairman and CEO of Amway India was arrested by the Andhra Pradesh Police in connection with a complaint against the direct selling firm. This is the second time that he has been taken into custody. A year, ago the Kerala Police had arrested Pinckney and two company directors on charges of financial irregularities.

 

China has told its state-owned enterprises to sever links with American consulting firms after the United States charged five Chinese military officers wih hacking US companies. China’s action which targets consultancies like McKinsey & Co. and the Boston Consulting Group, sterns from fears that the first are providing trade secrets to the US governments.

 

India has emerged as a country with some of the highest unregistered businesses in the world. Indonesia has the maximum number of shadow businesses, says a study of 68 countries by Imperial College Business School in London.

* The Company had issued on 25th December, 2011 17,500,000 convertible warrants to Mr. Mark Saldanha, promoter of the Company on preferential basis. During the year 2012-13, Mr. Mark Saldanha excercised his right of conversion of the said warrants into equity shares. Accordingly, the Company has on 14.12.2012 issued and allotted 17,500,000 equity shares of Rs. 1/- each face value to Mr. Mark Saldanha in conversion of the warrants. Consequently, the company's lssued, Subscribed and Paid-Up Equity Share Capital has increased from 367,807,204 equity shares of Rs.1/- each to 385,307,204 equity shares of Rs. 1/- each effective from 14.12.2012. These equity shares were issued at a cash consideration of Rs. 2.56 per equity share determined in accordance with applicable SEESI guidelines.

 

Terms/rights attached to Equity Shares

 

The Company has only one class of Equity Shares having a par value of Rs.1/- per share. All the Equity Shares rank pari passu in all respect. Each holder of Equity Shares is entitled to one vote per share. The equity share holders are entitled to dividend, if declared by the shareholders in an Annual General Meeting, in proportion to the number of Equity Shares held by the shareholders. In the event of liquidation of the Company, the holders of Equity Shares will be entitled to receive remaining assets of the Company, after distribution of all preferential amounts. The distribution will be in proportion to the number of Equity Shares held by the shareholders.

 

Terms/rights attached to Preference Shares

 

The Company had issued 1,350,000 7% Redeemable Cumulative Preference Shares of Rs. 100/- each fully paid-up to Glenmark Pharmaceuticals Limited on 27 March, 2008. These preference shares have been redeemed on 27 March, 2013 by issue of new 1,350,000 7% Redeemable Cumulative Preference Shares of Rs. 100/- each fully paid up under the same terms and conditions. The new preference shares will be due for redemption on 27 March, 2018. These preference shares carry dividend at the rate of 7% per annum subject to approval of the shareholders at an Annual General Meeting. The holder of the preference shares is entitled to one vote per share only on resolutions placed before the Company which directly affect the rights attached to the preference shares. In the event of liquidation of the Company before redemption of the preference shares, the holder of the preference shares will have priority over equity shares in the payment of dividend and repayment of capital.

 

 

The company has not issued bonus shares and shares for consideration other than cash nor the company has bought back any shares during the period of five years immediately preceding the reporting date except the issue of preference shares as stated in Note No.3c above.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

GLOBAL PHARMACEUTICAL MARKET

 

The global pharmaceutical market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5%, exceeding sales worth US$ 1.1 Trillion by 2017. This market, however, is expected to undergo a number of transitions which would impact the course of its growth. These transitions include a shift of growth from the developed to the emerging markets, an increasing focus on biopharmaceuticals compared to small molecule drugs and an increasing preference for generics compared to their branded versions.

 

Generics-focused companies will continue to benefit from patent expirations in 2013. While generic drug use is rising globally, ongoing price erosion and higher costs associated with producing more complex drugs are likely to cut into profits.

 

However, US deficit reduction efforts and persistent pricing pressures from healthcare reforms, in Europe in particular, will continue to weigh on the revenues of pharmaceutical companies.

 

The regulatory pathway for biosimilars, which are copies of biotech drugs, is likely to become clearer in the US, opening the door to regulatory filings this year. Biotech drugs are manufactured in a living system such as plant or animal cells, as opposed to traditional pharmaceutical drugs, which are made by combining chemical ingredients. In Europe, the creation of a pathway for copies of more complex biotech drugs could lead to at least one biosimilar being ready for launch when the patent on Remicade expires in Europe in August 2014.

 

However, market uncertainty, responding to price pressure, rising competition and regulatory changes are the leading business concerns for the global pharmaceutical industry in 2013.

 

A significant percentage of pharmaceutical manufacturing industry respondents highlighted that capital expenditure towards 'new product development', 'employee training', and 'IT infrastructure development' would increase in 2013.

 

The top three priorities for global pharmaceutical industry are 'new products and services', 'improve operational efficiency' and 'expand in current markets'.

 

The US to offer the highest growth potential among developed countries in 2013-2014.

 

However, increasing price and cost pressure, regulatory changes and expiring patents are leading to shrinking margins in the pharmaceutical industry.

 

The global pharmaceutical industry is facing a major structural change. Even though global sales have risen in recent years, profit margins have dropped considerably. This means realigning business models to fit the various product/ market constellations and their requirements is imperative for ensuring business success.

 

US GENERIC MARKET

 

There is continued penetration of generics in the US market due to steeply escalating healthcare costs and the impending patent cliff. Large number of patented drugs are going off-patent in the next few years, thereby offering significant opportunities for Indian pharmaceutical players.

 

• The US generic market presents the following advantages for the Indian generics players:

·         Approval from US FDA can open up a large USD 35bn market;

·         The market is easier to penetrate as it is dominated by 'generic generics' compared to branded-generics markets in the emerging world;

·         Distribution chain already in place and hence large upfront investments in sales and marketing infrastructure are not required; and

·         The gestation period is shorter, as there is no need to build relationships with physicians.

• The US market accounts for approximately 40 percent of the global generics market and therefore offers a large scope for scaling up operations.

 

GLOBAL OUTSOURCING MARKET

 

Recent structural changes in the global pharmaceutical industry has led to outsourcing being a key strategy for improving profitability for innovator companies. These include a) declining productivity, b) rising costs of R and D, c) looming patent cliff, d) increasing generalization of products coupled with weaker pipelines of innovator companies, e) fewer blockbuster launches, and f) delays in new product approvals.

 

Major decisive factors for pharmaceutical companies to adopt outsourcing include flexibility quicker time-to-market and lower scale-up costs in order to meet increasing demand for new drugs and focus on core competencies. Outsourcing also helps in the reduction of excess capacity in their manufacturing networks and restructure supply chains.

 

• Global outsourcing market reported a slowdown in growth driven by factors such as inventory rationalization by global innovators, reduced R and D spending etc., triggered by the recent economic crisis.

 

• However, over the medium to long-term, this market is likely to grow at a CAGR of about 20-25 percent, backed by strong fundamental drivers such as a) increased outsourcing by big pharmaceutical companies; and b) increased traction in the new and high-end service contracts.
