Motilal Oswal Report

Ipca Laboratories Ltd. delivered an in-line Q2 FY22 at the operational level, but earnings were below expectations due to higher depreciation / tax rate for the quarter.

The strong show in the domestic formulation segment was offset, to a large extent, by the muted exports formulation and active pharma ingredient segments, which dragged down Ipca Labs' margins on a YoY as well as QoQ basis.

While we expect the domestic formulation business to sustain the robust growth momentum over the medium term, we reduce our FY22E/FY23E earnings share by 6%/3%, factoring in:

  1. near-term challenges in the active pharma ingredient business,

  2. elevated key starting materials/logistic costs, and

  3. moderation in the export formulations business outlook.
