Valuation and Recommendation

The global API market was estimated to be around US$181.3 billion in 2020 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.2% to reach to about US$259.3 billion by 2026. The Indian API market has shown steady growth of 9.1% since FY19 and is expected to further grow at CAGR of 9.6% from 2021-26 outpacing the global market growth.

The company has grown at a CAGR of 16% over FY18-21. Due to favorable product mix and overall control on costs., EBITDA grew at higher CAGR of 21% over same period. EBITDA margins improved from 27.6% in FY18 to 31.4% in FY21. The management believes that there is no one-off in these margins, and with increasing share of CDMO business (has higher margins), margins are likely to remain healthy in future as well. At upper band of Rs 720, the PE comes to 25.1x FY21 earnings, which looks attractive. We recommend “Subscribe”.
