Motilal Oswal has given Neutral recommendation for Glenmark Pharma with a target price of Rs. 560 in its research report issued on Nov 15, 2021
Motilal Oswal’s research report on Glenmark Pharma
Glenmark Pharma (GNP) delivered an in-line 2QFY22 operational performance. Strong traction in ROW markets was offset by deceleration in the Domestic Formulation (DF) / US Generics segment. A change in the product mix and higher other operational costs (ex-R&D) led to flat earnings on YoY basis. We decrease our EPS estimate for FY22 and FY23 by 4% each, factoring in delays in niche launches in the US, coupled with higher price erosion in the base portfolio. We value GNP at 13x 12M forward earnings to arrive at Target Price of INR560. We maintain Neutral given the moderate 11% YoY growth in earnings over FY21–23 and that the valuation adequately factors in this potential upside in earnings.
Outlook
We value GNP at 13x 12M forward earnings to arrive at TP of INR560. We maintain Neutral on a limited upside from current levels.
