Leadership Comments

BIOCON GROUP

“Q4FY24 performance was strongly led by Biologics that delivered the promised billion-dollar annual revenue milestone marking the successful transition of the Biosimilars acquisition from Viatris. Increased market shares of key products in the U.S., Europe and Emerging Markets coupled with significant volumes growth were the highlights of the Biosimilars business this quarter. With the recent approval of Liraglutide in the UK, we added to our list of 'global firsts' and demonstrated our capability in developing complex GLP-1 products which will be the key growth driver for the Generics business, going forward. Syngene is well positioned to benefit from the ‘China Plus One’ strategy which is being rapidly adopted by U.S. Pharma & Biotech companies.

==> picture [80 x 30] intentionally omitted <==

“For the full year FY24, we reported consolidated revenue growth of 35% at Rs 15,621 crore and an EBITDA growth of 44 % at Rs 4,164 crore with healthy EBITDA margins of 27%. This growth was largely driven by Biosimilars which grew 58% to Rs 8,824 crore.

“The Biocon Group has strengthened business operations, expanded global reach and is now increasingly well positioned to deliver a new phase of growth spanning Biosimilars, GLP-1 peptides and CDMO services.

--Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, Executive Chairperson, Biocon and Biocon Biologics.

BIOCON GENERICS

“We concluded FY24 with the Generics business posting a modest revenue growth. Generic Formulations reported a healthy 36% growth, as our products, particularly statins and immunosuppressants, gained traction across multiple geographies. This was offset by a degrowth in APIs on account of pricing pressure the business encountered, which impacted demand.

“Our preparations for entering the GLP-1 market opportunity is building momentum and we are pleased with the recent approval of Liraglutide in the UK, making Biocon the first generics Company to be approved for this product in an ICH or major regulated market. More importantly, the approval validates our scientific and development capability in bringing vertically integrated, complex peptide drug-device products to the market. This augurs well for us to capture GLP-1 opportunities that will drive our future growth.

“Our focus in FY25 will be directed towards launching new products and expanding our geographic reach through a direct presence and strategic partnerships. We will continue to focus on multiple cost improvement initiatives. We also intend to build upon our initial regulatory success in our peptide and GLP-1 focused pipeline in strategic markets.”

-- Siddharth Mittal, CEO & Managing Director, Biocon Limited.

BIOCON BIOLOGICS

"This has been a remarkable year for Biocon Biologics, as we evolved into a fully integrated global company with a presence in over 120 countries. We successfully integrated the acquired business 1 year ahead of plan, while ensuring business continuity and a seamless experience for our patients, customers, and partners. This is reflected in the numbers as our revenues crossed USD 1 billion for the full year with a healthy EBITDA margin, underpinned by a significant increase in market shares of our key products in the U.S., Europe, and Emerging Markets. Our R&D pipeline too has progressed as planned and having secured market entry dates for 2 new products in U.S. and Canada, these products will serve to accelerate growth in the coming years.

“During the year, we reduced our acquisition debt. We also entered into a long-term strategic collaboration to distribute our products in India while retaining exclusive supply rights. FY24 has been a transformational year as we leverage our expanded global reach to address patient needs globally and unlock value for the benefit of all stakeholders."

-- Shreehas Tambe, CEO & Managing Director, Biocon Biologics Limited.

SYNGENE

“Despite the reduced demand for research and development services within the U.S. biotech sector, stemming from a difficult funding environment, we delivered a 9% growth for the full year. This resilience is the result of our broad operating span and the investments made to establish our development and manufacturing divisions with biologics, in particular, delivering a strong performance throughout the year.”

-- Jonathan Hunt, CEO & Managing Director, Syngene International Limited.

Business Highlights

GENERICS: APIs & Generic Formulations

Q4FY24 Revenue at Rs 719 Crore, down 3% YoY

  • FY24 Revenue at Rs 2,799 Crore, up 1%

Business Performance

The Generics business saw several operational successes during the quarter especially in the formulations business which offset the impact of a muted performance in the APIs business. Revenue stood at Rs 719 crore for the quarter and Rs 2,799 crore for the full year.

Biocon became the first company to receive approval from the MHRA, UK, for its vertically integrated, complex formulation Liraglutide (gVictoza® and gSaxenda®). Victoza®[@] is a drug device combination formulation used in the treatment of Type 2 diabetes, and Saxenda®[@] is an injection in pre-filled pen, for the treatment of weight management, as an adjunct to a reduced calorie diet and increased physical activity.

The Company launched Liothyronine Sodium tablets, an in-licensed product, in strengths of 5 mcg, 25 mcg and 50 mcg, in the U.S. Liothyronine is used in the treatment of hypothyroidism, pituitary thyroid-stimulating hormone (tsh) suppression and thyroid suppression tests.

In April 2024, the Company also received its first approval in South Africa, from the SAPHRA, for its vertically integrated, complex immunosuppressant product, Tacrolimus capsule, used in the treatment of organ transplant patients.

The Company entered into two important commercial agreements. In April 2024, it signed an exclusive licensing and supply agreement with Biomm S.A. for the commercialization of Semaglutide (gOzempic®[@] ) in Brazil. Biocon will develop, manufacture, and supply the drug product, and Biomm will commercialize it in the region, post obtaining regulatory approval. Semaglutide is used in the treatment of Type 2 diabetes of adults, to improve glycemic control.

In May 2024, the Company signed a semi-exclusive distribution and supply agreement with Medix, a specialty pharmaceutical company in Mexico, for the commercialization of its vertically integrated drug product, Liraglutide (gSaxenda®), used in the treatment of chronic weight management.

In line with its regional expansion strategy, tenders were won in several markets, such as the U.K., Scotland, Singapore, and Saudi Arabia.

The Company received approvals for Rosuvastatin tablets in Malaysia and Lenalidomide capsules in Singapore.

There is a sustained momentum being built up in the formulations business driven by new product launches, strengthening of the U.S. business footprint and further traction in business expansion through both direct-to- market and strategic partnership models.

Regulatory Inspections

Biocon Limited received GMP certificates from the Brazilian Health Authority, ANVISA, for two products from its API facility at Visakhapatnam (site 5) in March 2024, and in April 2024 for one product from its Bengaluru API facility (site 1). ANVISA also concluded an audit at its Hyderabad API facility (site 3), for 13 products, with no observations.

NOVEL BIOLOGICS

The novel molecule, Itolizumab, continues to make progress. On April 1, 2024, Equillium, Biocon’s U.S.-based partner, announced positive topline data from a Phase 1b EQUALISE study of Itolizumab in patients with Lupus Nephritis. The study demonstrated clinically meaningful response in highly proteinuric subjects, with more than 80% of subjects achieving over 50% reduction in urine protein creatinine ratio. Itolizumab demonstrated a favorable safety and tolerability profile.

In FY24, the Company recorded a gain of Rs 530 crore, arising from the dilution of Biocon’s shareholding in Bicara to 14%, leading to loss of significant influence over Bicara. Henceforth, it is no longer an ‘associate company’ of the Biocon Group.

Financial Year FY24

On a full-year basis, Biocon Biologics crossed the USD 1 billion annual revenue mark in FY24, with revenue at Rs 8,824 crore , reflecting a 58% year-on-year growth driven by the consolidation of the acquired business and robust growth in the core business across advanced and emerging markets.

North America[@]

In the U.S. market , Biocon Biologics is benefiting from the integration of the acquired business, as evidenced by its performance in Q4FY24. With Biocon Biologics now spearheading commercial operations, the Company witnessed a significant step up in the market shares of its biosimilars in the U.S. The market share for Ogivri® (bTrastuzumab) increased to 18% from 10% in the same period last year. Biocon Biologics also secured four new commercial formulary agreements for Ogivri®, including UnitedHealthcare® Commercial Medical Benefit Drug Policy, effective May 1, 2024, as a

UnitedHealthcare Preferred Oncology Product. The share of Fulphila® (bPegfilgrastim) increased to 21% from 14% a year ago. Fulphila® is the only brand in its category to expand its market share.

Semglee® and our unbranded bGlargine market share improved to 15% from 12% the previous year, with Semglee® becoming the fastest growing brand in the basal insulins category in the U.S. in the quarter. In addition, unbranded bGlargine holds a strong market share with a closed-door pharmacy network which would add an additional 3% market share.

The U.S. FDA has accepted Biocon Biologics’ Biologics License Application (BLA) for Bmab 1200 (bUstekinumab) for review under the 351(k) pathway. The Company has signed a settlement and license agreement with Janssen Biotech Inc. and Johnson & Johnson that clears the way to commercialize Bmab 1200, Biocon Biologics’ proposed biosimilar referencing Stelara®**(Ustekinumab), subject to regulatory approval, in the U.S. no later than February 22, 2025. This will position Biocon Biologics among the first wave of entrants in the U.S. for bUstekinumab.

In Canada, the Company maintained a steady position across all products. Hulio® (bAdalimumab) market share increased to 7.5% from 6% a year ago. Biocon Biologics has also secured a contract to supply bGlargine to the country’s largest retail outlet.

The Company also signed a settlement agreement with Bayer Inc. and Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc. for the launch of YESAFILI®, a proposed biosimilar to EYLEA®*** (Aflibercept injection) in Canada no later than July 1, 2025. The product has already been approved by Health Canada.

Europe and JANZ[&]

The Company achieved double-digit year-on-year revenue growth in both Europe and the markets of Japan, Australia, and New Zealand (JANZ). Biocon Biologics has successfully integrated all 31 countries in Europe by strategically adopting country-specific business models that include self-led markets with dedicated teams and some partner-led markets.

In Europe overall, market shares improved from the previous year, with Fulphila® at ~8% vs ~6% (Q4 CY '22) and Abevmy® at ~6% vs ~1% (Q4 CY '22). Hulio® has held its share at ~6%. At a country level, Hulio ® has garnered market shares of 20% in Belgium, 18% in Germany and 11% in France and continues to remain a key value and growth contributor.

The Company has successfully integrated the acquired business in JANZ markets and signed on partners, establishing a foundation to gain from market opportunities and sustain growth.

Emerging Markets

In Q4FY24, the Emerging Markets business posted the highest ever quarterly revenue reporting a strong year-on-year growth led by the robust performance of its biosimilars portfolio in LATAM, AFMET and APAC regions. This performance was driven by the consolidation of self-led and partnerled business, 7 product launches and key tender wins.

==> picture [80 x 30] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [122 x 27] intentionally omitted <==

Notable highlights included good uptake of bBevacizumab in Brazil and successful launches in several other markets in LATAM. The Company also expanded its patients’ reach in Mexico with additional supplies of insulins to its partner to address the unmet needs of insulin-dependent people grappling with the market shortage of insulins.

Both the insulins and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) portfolios made good progress with our key products holding a dominant market share in several markets including Morocco, South Africa, and the Philippines.

The Company also capitalized on the opportunity to serve patients in new markets by winning many tenders this quarter, including a significantly large multi-year tender for mAbs in Tunisia. Several new approvals obtained this quarter will pave the way for future business growth.

Biocon Biologics has expanded its strategic collaboration with Eris Lifesciences, to provide access to its portfolio of Metabolics, Oncology and Critical Care brands in India, for a total transaction value of INR 1,242 crore^, which represents a revenue multiple of 3.4x and EBITDA multiple of 18x. This strategic collaboration with Eris aligns with Biocon Biologics' commercial strategy to maximize patient reach and market potential, while unlocking value from its branded formulations business in India. The Company has also signed a 10-year supply agreement with Eris for these products as a part of this collaboration.

RESEARCH SERVICES: Syngene

  • Q4FY24 Revenue at Rs 917 Crore, down 8% YoY

  • FY24 Revenue at Rs 3,489 Crore, up 9%

Business Performance

Revenue at Rs 917 crore in Q4FY24 was impacted due to reduced demand for research and development services within U.S. biotech stemming from a difficult funding environment. The company continued to manage costs proactively to deliver consistent operating leverage and maintain EBITDA margin around the expected level. During the quarter, it operationalized a new capability for purifying and separating chiral compounds and HPAPIs (Highly Potent Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients) as part of its Development Services.

The recent step up in new funding into U.S. biotech is expected to drive a recovery in demand for research and development services.

During the year, Syngene continued to add capabilities that strengthen its position as a leading integrated provider of research, development and manufacturing services, resulting in full-year revenue growth of 9% to Rs 3,489 crore , EBITDA growth of 10% at Rs 1,105 crore with stable EBITDA margins of 31%.
