Piramal Pharma to stay away from prescription business in India: Nandini Piramal
Mumbai: Piramal Pharma has no plans to enter domestic prescription formulations business for now, chairperson Nandini Piramal told ET, putting to rest speculations that the company is evaluating acquisitions in this space. The company, however, may consider acquiring over-the-counter (OTC) portfolios or individual brands and products for its India-focused consumer healthcare business , which crossed the strategic revenue milestone of ₹1,000 crore in FY25. It may also evaluate targets in its global complex hospital generics business. Piramal explained that rivals that already have a prescription business would be willing to pay more for an acquisition target as they would get immediate synergies. "So, the amount that they can afford to pay versus wouldn't have that," she said.

On its future growth strategy, the chairperson said the company will continue to focus on organic brownfield expansion in the drug development and manufacturing service business, or Contract Development and Manufacturing Organisation ( CDMO ). Live Events The company is looking at capex of $100-125 million, she said. Talking about the current global headwinds, Piramal said near-term macroeconomic uncertainty and uneven improvement in biotech funding is leading to customers taking more time to decide and place orders, thus leading to lower capacity utilisation in the overseas CDMO sites. However, the company's India sites are running at a healthy utilisation level, she said. "In many of our overseas sites, we have recently made investments and hence their utilisation will gradually pick up as we fill them with new orders," she added. About 69% of Piramal Pharma's revenue comes from regulated markets like the US, UK, Europe and Japan. On overall future product pipeline, Piramal said there are 31 products in phase 3 trial, 30 in phase 2, and 177 in phase 1. The company posted 8% year-on-year growth in revenue from operations for the fourth quarter of FY25 ended March and 12% growth for the full fiscal, driven primarily by CDMO business, especially from on-patent commercial manufacturing. Its net debt-to-Ebitda ratio improved to 2.7x in FY25 versus 5.6x in FY23.

Piramal Pharma CDMO growth hit by US policy jitters; recovery seen in FY27
Piramal Pharma anticipates muted, single-digit growth for its contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) business in FY26, hurt by near-term uncertainties as clients defer decisions amid concerns over US pricing and tariff policies, a top company official said. However, the Mumbai-based firm expects a quick recovery in FY27, and is on track to achieve its target of becoming a $2-billion company with 25% Ebitda (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) margins by FY30, chairperson Nandini Piramal told Mint. 'There's been an increase in uncertainty and volatility…wher you've got pricing [cuts], whether you've got tariffs, or biotech funding which has been kind of uneven,' Piramal said. 'A lot of customers are pausing on decision-making,' She said, adding that the company has seen an increase in requests for proposals (RFPs) from potential clients. 'They're trying to scenario-play all the options.' A CDMO is a company that provides comprehensive services, from drug development to clinical trials and drug manufacturing to other pharmaceutical and biotech firms on a contract basis. 'In FY27, we should see a significant and a strong recovery,' she added. Earlier this week, Trump signed an executive order to bring down the costs of prescription drugs in the US to match the cheapest global prices. Additionally, he has indicated imposing import tariffs on pharmaceutical products with the view of bringing manufacturing back to US. However, a lot of uncertainty persists over the implementation and details of these orders. Piramal Pharma expects steady growth for its consumer healthcare business and complex hospital generics in the coming year, she said, adding that the company is well-poised to service demand in the CDMO business. 'Once the uncertainty dies down, we have the capacity and the capabilities and one of the best networks in the US, the UK, and India, depending on where our customers want to manufacture their products,' Piramal said. The CDMO business contributed 59% to Piramal Pharma's overall revenues in FY25. Earlier this week, the firm announced a $90 million investment to expand its manufacturing capabilities at two key US facilities - Lexington in Kentucky and Riverview in Michigan. Piramal said that there has been a rise in demand for onshoring post-covid, 'especially for on-patent pharmaceuticals and some of the more complex drugs…to be closer to the customer'. The expansion of the Lexington facility is expected to be completed by calendar year 2027, while the Riverview facility expansion will be completed this calendar year. The company saw significant recovery in FY24 and FY25, with a 14% compounded annual growth rate (CAGR), over 500 bps of Ebitda margin enhancement, and significant improvement in net profits, the company said in an investor presentation. It also brought down its net debt/Ebitda level from 5.6x in FY23 to 2.7x in FY25. 'Over the last couple of years, we've very good growth in our patent innovation-related work in the CDMO business, and that has led to giving us operating leverage and an improvement in Ebitda,' Piramal said. The company expects strong market growth for its India-focused consumer healthcare business, which crossed the ₹ 1,000 crore revenue milestone this year. 'We're also looking at focusing on expanding our distribution from being just a canvas focus in e-commerce, to now broadening to modern trade, quick commerce, stand-alone supermarkets,' Piramal said. For its complex hospital generics business, the company intends to leverage its recently commercialised Sevoflurane facility to expand into the rest of world (RoW) markets. Piramal Pharma currently holds 44% market share for Sevoflurane, an inhaled anaesthetic, in the US. The company expects to expand into other markets inFY26. Sevoflurane has a $400-million global market, Piramal said. The company posted its financial results for Q4FY25 and FY25 on Wednesday. Its revenue grew 8% year-on-year to ₹ 2,754 crore in Q4FY25, and 12% in FY25 to ₹ 9,151 crore, driven primarily by the CDMO business especially from on-patent commercial manufacturing. Ebitda rose 8% year-on-year to ₹ 603 crore in Q4FY25 and 15% YoY to ₹ 1,580 crore in the fiscal year ended 31 March, driven by operating leverage, cost optimization, and operational excellence initiatives, the company said.
