JM Financial Institutional Securities views on Dr Reddy’s post Q4 results
Analysts at JM Financial Institutional Securities maintain a 'BUY' rating on Dr. Reddy’s Labs with a target price of ₹1,418.
The brokerage firm expects the FY26 topline to grow at 23 per cent with Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) margins to remain at similar levels as FY25.
Analysts said they revised FY26E topline upwards by 8 per cent on account of expected Revlimid sales being greater than those earlier anticipated. Beyond FY26, Semaglutide and Biosimilars (including Abatacept) are expected to drive business performance. Dr. Reddy’s plans to be present in all Semaglutide markets losing exclusivity in CY26, while Abatacept is scheduled for launch in CY27.
“We believe the street is underestimating the Semaglutide opportunity for Dr. Reddy’s. While it may not fully replace Revlimid sales, it could substantially mitigate the earnings decline in FY27. Though Canada, Brazil, India and China are the key Sema markets losing protection in CY26, a number of Emerging Market countries too are going off patent and thus we have increased our FY27E sales by 5 per cent leading to a 6 per cent increase in FY27E EBITDA,” JM Financial Institutional Securities said in the Q4 result note.
Further, Indian Pharma companies are entering lower earnings growth phase post FY26, thus the brokerage firm said they have reduced the 1 year forward P/E multiple by 19 per cent to 21x. At a 21x PE on FY27 EPS, the stock remains attractive compared to peers.
