Management Comments :
Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, Executive Chairperson, Biocon and Biocon Biologics said, “We reported a strong consolidated revenue growth of 23% YoY for Q2FY23 at Rs 2,384 Crore driven by 34% growth in Biosimilars, 26% in Research Services and 18% in the Generics business. Our Gross R&D spends increased by 52% YoY this quarter to Rs 252 Crore reflecting our advancing pipeline that will drive our future growth. Core EBITDA was up by 34% at Rs 816 Crore, representing healthy core operating margins of 35% versus 33% in the same quarter last year. “We have delivered a resilient performance in H1FY23, with all segments delivering strong revenue growth. We expect to consolidate on this performance in the second half of FY23. Enhanced capacities and new launches will drive growth for our API and Generic Formulations business, while continued business momentum should help Syngene achieve its guidance for the full year. “The consolidation of Viatris’ global biosimilars business and the strategic vaccines alliance with Serum Institute will add to the growth of the Biosimilars business in H2FY23. We have secured necessary financing and obtained relevant approvals for the Viatris transaction, which is expected to close shortly.”

Siddharth Mittal, CEO & Managing Director, Biocon said, “I am pleased with the sequential as well as YoY growth of the Generics business in Q2, on the back of the stabilization of our API business, with immunosuppressants being a significant contributor. Our statins portfolio continued to encounter pricing pressures. “Our Generic Formulations business delivered a healthy performance in the quarter, with both base business as well as new product launches gaining traction. The business also secured several key approvals for our vertically integrated products in the EU and the rest of the world (RoW) markets, providing further impetus to our geographical expansion plans in the quarters ahead.”

Dr Arun Chandavarkar, Managing Director, Biocon Biologics said, “Biocon Biologics maintained a healthy operating performance in Q2FY23 with revenues increasing 34% YoY to Rs 997 Crore, driven by higher sales of our biosimilar insulins and antibodies in advanced and emerging markets. We have seen an uptick in new prescription share for Semglee and volume market share for Fulphila in the U.S. Core EBITDA at Rs 449 Crore was up 48% YoY, representing strong margins of 46%. R&D investments at Rs 184 Crore, an increase of 142% YoY, reflects the good progress of our pipeline laying the foundation for future growth of our business. “In preparation for a direct commercial presence in the advanced markets, we have made key leadership appointments this quarter. We believe the conclusion of the strategic transactions with Viatris and Serum Institute, expected to be closed in Q3FY22, will position Biocon Biologics as a fully integrated, leading global biosimilars player.”

Jonathan Hunt, CEO & Managing Director, Syngene said, “Our performance in the first half of the year was good. We started the year with strong momentum and delivered a robust first quarter. Performance in the second quarter was ahead of market expectations. All our divisions performed well and revenue from operations grew by 26%. We continue to see good demand for our services, which has helped us deliver strong revenue growth and puts us on a solid track for the rest of the year.”
