For 1QFY2012, Aurobindo Pharmas (APL) results were below expectations on the operating front, even after excluding the one-time payment of FCCB redemption premium. Although the companys performance was above our expectations on the top-line front, led by the formulation segments growth, performance on the operating and PAT levels was lower than our expectations. We maintain Buy on the stock. US and ARV formulation segments growth boosts revenue: Net sales grew strongly by 16.8% yoy to `1,076.9cr, driven by the US and ARV formulation segments. The US formulation segment grew by healthy 26.7% yoy to `274cr. The ARV formulation segment posted 44.4% yoy growth to `211.6cr. Gross margin came in at 46.8% (48.1%), impacted by higher raw-material costs. OPM fell to 15.2%, below our estimates of 17.6%, impacted by higher employee and other expenses. Adjusted net profit for the quarter came in at `88cr (`68.2cr). Outlook and valuation: Commencement of operations at the Hyderabad SEZ and incremental contribution from the Pfizer deal would boost APLs earnings with better growth visibility going forward. We estimate net sales to log a 12.7% CAGR to `5,243cr over FY201113E on the back of supply agreements and the US and ARV formulation contracts. We expect APLs recurring earnings (excluding other operating income) to post a 29.5% CAGR over FY201113E to `557cr on the back of sales growth and OPM expansion. We maintain our Buy view on the stock with a target price of `278. Key financials (Consolidated)

Revenue up 16.8%, driven by the US and ARV formulation segments: APL reported 16.8% yoy growth in net sales to `1,077cr (`968cr), led by growth in the formulations space, which grew by 26.2% yoy to `623cr (`498cr), majorly driven by growth in the US and ARV formulation segments. The US formulation segment grew by healthy 26.8% yoy to `274cr (`216cr). The ARV formulation segment reported 39.3% yoy growth to `212cr (`152cr). As a result, contribution of the formulations segment to net sales increased to 58% in 1QFY2012 from 55% in 1QFY2011. The API segment posted growth of 11.5% yoy to `459cr (`412cr), driven by SSP, which grew by 18.7% yoy. As of June 2011, the company had 138 approved ANDAs and 29 tentative approvals, with cumulative filings of 215.

OPM dips by 240bp for the quarter: During the quarter, gross margin came in at 46.8% (48.1%), impacted by higher raw-material costs. Gross margin came under pressure on account of unfavourable sales mix, with increased contribution of ARV sales in the overall sales mix. OPM declined to 15.2%, lower than our estimates of 17.6%, impacted by higher employee and other expenses.

Net profit lower than our estimates: For the quarter, APL reported losses on account of one-time payment of FCCB redemption premium. However, adjusting for the same, APLs net profit stood at `88cr (`103cr), for the quarter, lower than our estimate of `118cr, mainly due to lower-than-expected operating margin.

Management takeaways
Overall growth for FY2012 is expected to be around 20%, with US, Europe and RoW, and ARV formulation sales growth expected to be ~20%, 2530% and ~20%, respectively. FY2012 OPM is expected to be higher than FY2011 OPM. Licensing income is expected to be around `125cr in FY2012. No clarity on the timelines with the resolution of the USFDA issue w.r.t. Unit III and VI. As of June 2011, gross debt on the books was ~`2,700cr, with cash of `90cr.

Recommendation rationale
Supply agreements to drive growth: On the global filings front (ANDAs and dossiers), APL has increased its filings dramatically from 313 in FY2008 to 1,171 in FY2010, as it proposes to scale up from SSP and Cephs to NPNC products. Further, the companys transformation from being a pure API supplier to becoming a formidable formulations player has increased its cost efficiencies, as 90% of its formulations are now backward integrated. Thus, to leverage on its cost efficiency and strong product filings, APL entered into long-term supply agreements with Pfizer (March 2009) and AstraZeneca (September 2010), which provide significant revenue visibility going ahead. APL is also in discussions with other MNCs for more supply agreements. US and ARV formulation segments The key drivers for base business: APLs business, excluding the supply agreements, would primarily be driven by the US and ARV segments on the formulation front. APL has been an aggressive filer in the US market, with 209 ANDAs filed and 134 approvals received until FY2011. Amongst peers, APL is the third-largest ANDA filer. The company has aggressively filed ANDAs in the last three years and is now geared to reap the benefits, even though most of the filings are for highly competitive products. APL expects to file 1520 ANDAs every year going forward. Going ahead,

during the next three years in the US with US$70bn going off-patent, one of the highest in history, we believe APL is well placed to tap this opportunity. We expect the base business (ex. Pfizer) to post a 36.0% CAGR over FY201012 and contribute US$268mn by FY2012, with revenue per product increasing to US$2.6mn from US$2.3mn in FY2010, as the company moves towards the high revenue-generating NPNC and injectable (SSP and Cephs) products. APL is one of the largest generic suppliers under ARV contracts, with a 35% market share. The company enjoys high market share as it is fully integrated in all its products apart from having a larger product basket. Overall, we expect the ARV segment to post a 21.4% CAGR over FY201012E to `730cr, with PEPFAR allocation for generic ARVs expected to increase.

Outlook and valuation

Commencement of operations at the Hyderabad SEZ and incremental contribution from the Pfizer deal would boost APLs earnings with better growth visibility going forward. We estimate net sales to log a 12.7% CAGR to `5,243cr over FY2011 13E on the back of supply agreements and the US and ARV formulation contracts. We expect APLs recurring earnings (excluding other operating income) to post a 29.5% CAGR over FY201113E to `557cr on the back of sales growth and OPM expansion. We maintain our Buy rating on the stock with a target price of `278.
