Strides reports weak Q1FY22 results
Q1FY22 has been a unprecedented quarter for Strides amidst multiple macro headwinds from the recent
wave of Covid-19. This has led to significant disruptions both on the demand and supply side. The
above headwinds have resulted in the company reporting an operating loss for the first time ever. While
we are witnessing near term challenges due to price erosions, we are taking a number of actions to
adapt to the new market realities.
We are excited to announce signing of a definitive agreement to acquire Endo's basket of ANDA's
having limited competition including controlled substances, hormones, nasal sprays, liquids, modified
release, gels and oral solids along with the US manufacturing site at Chestnut Ridge, New York. The
acquired portfolio will help us significantly ramp up our new product launches. We are also undertaking
various cost measures to improve our operating leverage. We are consolidating our West Palm Beach
operations with site at Chestnut Ridge to deliver operational synergies. Size of the combined portfolio
will help optimize R&D spends which will now be targeted towards building specialty products.
While the Other Regulated Markets delivered a weak quarter led by significant drop in prescriptions,
price challenges in key markets and supply spills owing to Covid-19 impact at our manufacturing sites,
our order book continues to remain robust and we expect a bounce back in Q2FY22
With all the above actions we expect to see full recovery in H2FY22 driven by growth across all our
businesses. We expect to end the year with a 10-15% revenue growth over US$ 215m reported in the US
for FY21.
