25 MAY 2016 Quarterly Update CIPLA INDIA BUY PHARMACEUTICALS Target Price: Rs 550 Weak Q4 led by one-offs; on right track Cipla’s reported Q4EBITDA declined 57% YoY while EBITDA (adjusted CMP : Rs 495 Potential Upside : 11% for one-offs) was flat YoYdespite 40 days of consolidation of higher- margin Invagen in US. While reported EBITDA margin was 6.7%, EBITDA margin adjusted for one-offs [inventory (3.4%), restructuring & MARKET DATA rationalization (3.4%) and incremental R&D (2.2%)] was at 15.8% (400 No. of Shares : 803 mn bps lower than our estimate). Free Float : 63% Market Cap : Rs 398 bn While steps towards restructuring and incremental focus on R&D seem 52-week High / Low : Rs 748 / Rs 492 positive, FY17 guidance (ex-Invagen acquisition) of mid-teens revenue Avg. Daily vol. (6mth) : 1.8 mn shares growth and 15-20% EBITDA growth seem disappointing. We reduce Bloomberg Code : Cipla IB Equity our FY17/FY18EPS by 26%/20%. Maintain BUY rating with revised TP Promoters Holding : 37% FII / DII : 14% / 15% of Rs 550 (20x FY18 EPS) vs. Rs 640earlier (22x FY17), as we expect scale-up in US to drive rerating. ♦ Weak Q4:While India business (40% of revenue) growth recovered to 16% YoY (vs. 3% growth in 9MFY16), export formulation growth was muted at 3% YoY led by weak performance in South Africa (11.5% of revenue) and high base in Q4FY15 (led by gNexium). We note adjusted EBITDA margin was weaker than expected due to weak performance in export formulations and higher R&D expense (8.2% of Q4 sales vs. 6.5% in FY16) ♦ Last leg of clean-up:Cipla has seen significant clean-up in inventory, rationalization of non-key marketsand restructuring in last 2 quarters to reduce complexity (given its past baggage) and enhance base business profitability ♦ Fast tracking US (~20% of FY18E revenue): We expect strong growth (60% CAGR over FY16-18E) in US (ex-Nexium) led by: (1) integration of Invagen/Exelan,(2) launch of products via own front end, (3) partnership model. It expects to file20-25 ANDAs(including respiratory and oncology) vs.5 in FY16; has 90 approved ANDAs and 78 ANDA pending (including partners); plans to launch 5-7 from Invagen and 8-10 products from Cipla pipeline (including few limited competition) in FY17. gAdvair (inhalers):Did not disclose any timeline to start clinical trials in US but confident of filing for substitutable version; UK approval’s exact timeline still not knownbut expects in few quarters Financial summary (Consolidated) Key drivers Y/E March FY15 FY16 FY17E FY18E Growth (% ) FY16 FY17E FY18E Sales (Rs mn) 108,824 133,725 161,983 188,236 Exports FD 35 32 17 Adj PAT (Rs mn) 11,807 15,059 17,378 22,091 India 9 13 15 Con.

Cipla indicated Q4 includes base level of Esomeprazole and Pulmicort which is likely to continue fornext few quarters ♦ Cipla completed acquisition of InvaGen Pharma and Exelan Pharma in Q4. Most of InvaGen’s products have been transitioned to Cipla’s label and the company has managed to retain most of InvaGen’s customers. Management highlighted low risk of price erosion from new entrants in InvaGen’s key products, as they are in highly competitive segments (8-10 competitors).
