*Ajanta Pharma – Q4FY21 Concall – Nirmal Bang Sec.
*Outlook – Positive*

The stock is trading at 21.8xFY22E consensus earnings


The company arranged its maiden concall for the quarter. The company witnessed 11% sales growth for the quarter driven by growth across markets except branded generics in emerging markets which was impacted due to supplies issues, which is expected to normalise soon. Ajanta witnessed improvement in gross margins to 78% against 75% in FY20 due to favourable product mix. The management sounded confident of maintaining current levels for future except some inflation on API cost. Other expenses have normalised in 2H (vs lower in 1H on account of limited field activities) and likely to remain in the same range for future. EBITDA margins have improved to 34% during Q4 vs 22% last year and 32% in Q3. For FY22, the management is hopeful of maintaining the margins barring slight increase in R&D cost which is likely to improve to 6% of sales from currently 5%. Last year due to lockdown the industry lost 5-6 months in terms of activity, hence ANDA filings were less, however it is likely to pick up in current year and the management is targeting 10-12 filings. The company has done capex of Rs 155 cr in FY20 and has guided for Rs 250 cr in FY22 mainly on maintenance, on new corporate office and some expansions in the facility. Its balance sheet continues to remain healthy with cash and equivalents of Rs 375 cr and zero debt. During the year the company has witnessed improvement in receivables however inventory levels have moved up which according to company is a conscious decision to streamline the supply issues.
