            What Happened Last Quarter…
Divi’s Laboratories Ltd. (DIVI.IN/DIVI.BO) appear to have a delivered a robust performance in Q1
FY11 on the face of it, with the topline up 25% Y-o-Y, the EBIDTA margin expanding by 170 basis
points Y-o-Y to 39% and the net profit increasing 46% Y-o-Y. However, much of this strong growth
in the quarter came on the back of a low base effect. The company’s net earnings at Rs.863 mn in Q1
FY11 came in lower than the expectation of Rs.900 mn-1.0 bn. A sequential comparison of the
numbers for Q1 FY11 reveals that the company’s performance was not that impressive and
the topline and bottomline actually declined sequentially by 15% and 34% respectively. The
company’s performance in Q1 FY11 was impacted by adjustments related to inventory de-stocking
issues (associated with a few of its global clients) that was witnessed in the 9-months ending FY10.
However, most of the issues were resolved in Q4 FY10 and the company is now gradually coming
back on track, with management stating that it was only an aberration.
Management confirmed that there is a gradual pick up in customers and remains confident of the
company stepping back on the growth trajectory in the coming quarters. Divi’s now expects a
quarterly topline run rate of Rs.3 bn+, going forward. This was against revenues of Rs.2.6 bn
recorded in Q1FY11. For now, we are maintaining our estimates for FY11 and continue to expect an
                                                       EPS of Rs.33.1, marking a healthy growth of

    -    In Q1 FY11, the company’s total revenue at Rs.2.65 bn was up 25% Y-o-Y, due to a low base
         effect, but down 15% sequentially. For the 9-months ending FY09, Divi’s witnessed a
         slowdown in orders, as clients reduced their inventory level. According to the company, the
         impact of de-stocking by global innovators has played out and it expects business to be step
         back on track, going forward.

    -    Revenue from the carotenoid segment came in at Rs.180 mn in the quarter, up from Rs.130
         mn recorded in Q4 FY10. Divi’s expects the segment to record revenue of Rs.750 mn in Q2
         FY11, as against Rs.340 mn reported for the full year FY10.

    -    The EBITDA margin declined significantly to 39% on a sequential basis, due to a change in
         the company’s product mix, with a higher proportion of sales from generic APIs.


                                                      6

       - In FY10, Divi’s added seven products to its portfolio, two in generic APIs and five in
         custom synthesis.

       - Divi’s spent Rs.540 mn on capital expenditure in FY10 and expects to spend Rs.2.5 bn
         towards the new SEZ for creating additional capacities, as its existing capacities are likely to
         near full utilization by the end of FY11. The SEZ is expected to be complete by the end of
         FY11.

   -     The tax rate for the quarter was lower due to EoU and SEZ benefits.

    - Loans, which stood at Rs.328 mn in FY10, declined further to Rs.290 mn in Q1 FY11.

Scope exists for upward revision to our FY11 estimates
The overall strength of Divi’s was evident in its ability to maintain an EBIDTA margin of 45%+ in
FY10, in spite of the global economic downturn and de-stocking pressure faced from its key clients
in the 9-months ending FY10. Since FY08, Divi’s has managed to post an EBIDTA margin of 40%+.
And now, with these global pressures easing out and with the business getting back on track , we
believe that Divi’s would be able to maintain a 40%+ EBIDTA margin going forward…

Quote:

“Once the global economic situation normalizes in FY11 and orders begin to pick up from Q4
FY10 onwards, we believe that there will be significant scope for further EBIDTA margin
expansion. However, on a pretty conservative basis, we still estimate an EBIDTA margin of just
45% for FY11, as compared to a margin of 44% recorded in FY10 , marking an improvement of
80 basis points Y-o-Y, which, we believe, the company will be able to surpass comfortably. Hence,
there exists scope for a significant upside to our FY11E estimates.”

Unquote:

(First Global’s, “Divi’s Laboratories Ltd.: Well positioned to step back on the growth trajectory in
FY11; upgrade to Moderate Outperform”, dated February 2, 2010).


Just as we had expected, the company’s EBIDTA margin for FY10 stood at a healthy 44%, which we
expect to improve further to 45% in FY11. However, the EBIDTA margin for Q1 FY11 came in at
39%, as the company’s topline witnessed a delayed effect of the inventory destocking issues faced in
the 9-months ending FY10. Nevertheless, we expect the company’s overall business to step back on
track in the coming quarters and hence, continue to expect a topline and bottomline growth of 27%
each for FY11. This was against a negative topline and bottomline growth recorded in FY10.We are
also maintaining our earlier EBIDTA margin estimate of 45% for FY11.

However, much of this strong growth in the quarter came on the back of a low base effect. The company’s net earnings at Rs.863 mn in Q1 FY11 came in lower than the expectation of Rs.900 mn-1.0 bn. A sequential comparison of the numbers for Q1 FY11 reveals that the company’s performance was not that impressive and the topline and bottomline actually declined sequentially by 15% and 34% respectively. The company’s performance in Q1 FY11 was impacted by adjustments related to inventory de-stocking issues (associated with a few of its global clients) that was witnessed in the 9-months ending FY10. However, most of the issues were resolved in Q4 FY10 and the company is now gradually coming back on track, with management stating that it was only an aberration. Management confirmed that there is a gradual pick up in customers and remains confident of the company stepping back on the growth trajectory in the coming quarters. Divi’s now expects a quarterly topline run rate of Rs.3 bn+, going forward. This was against revenues of Rs.2.6 bn recorded in Q1FY11. For now, we are maintaining our estimates for FY11 and continue to expect an EPS of Rs.33.1, marking a healthy growth of 27%.

For the 9-months ending FY09, Divi’s witnessed a slowdown in orders, as clients reduced their inventory level. According to the company, the impact of de-stocking by global innovators has played out and it expects business to be step back on track, going forward. - Revenue from the carotenoid segment came in at Rs.180 mn in the quarter, up from Rs.130 mn recorded in Q4 FY10. Divi’s expects the segment to record revenue of Rs.750 mn in Q2 FY11, as against Rs.340 mn reported for the full year FY10. - The EBITDA margin declined significantly to 39% on a sequential basis, due to a change in the company’s product mix, with a higher proportion of sales from generic APIs. 6
  • 8. FIRST GLOBAL www.firstglobal.in India Research - In FY10, Divi’s added seven products to its portfolio, two in generic APIs and five in custom synthesis. - Divi’s spent Rs.540 mn on capital expenditure in FY10 and expects to spend Rs.2.5 bn towards the new SEZ for creating additional capacities, as its existing capacities are likely to near full utilization by the end of FY11. The SEZ is expected to be complete by the end of FY11. - The tax rate for the quarter was lower due to EoU and SEZ benefits. - Loans, which stood at Rs.328 mn in FY10, declined further to Rs.290 mn in Q1 FY11. Scope exists for upward revision to our FY11 estimates The overall strength of Divi’s was evident in its ability to maintain an EBIDTA margin of 45%+ in FY10, in spite of the global economic downturn and de-stocking pressure faced from its key clients in the 9-months ending FY10. Since FY08, Divi’s has managed to post an EBIDTA margin of 40%+. And now, with these global pressures easing out and with the business getting back on track , we believe that Divi’s would be able to maintain a 40%+ EBIDTA margin going forward… Quote: “Once the global economic situation normalizes in FY11 and orders begin to pick up from Q4 FY10 onwards, we believe that there will be significant scope for further EBIDTA margin expansion. However, on a pretty conservative basis, we still estimate an EBIDTA margin of just 45% for FY11, as compared to a margin of 44% recorded in FY10 , marking an improvement of 80 basis points Y-o-Y, which, we believe, the company will be able to surpass comfortably. Hence, there exists scope for a significant upside to our FY11E estimates.” Unquote: (First Global’s, “Divi’s Laboratories Ltd.: Well positioned to step back on the growth trajectory in FY11; upgrade to Moderate Outperform”, dated February 2, 2010). Just as we had expected, the company’s EBIDTA margin for FY10 stood at a healthy 44%, which we expect to improve further to 45% in FY11. However, the EBIDTA margin for Q1 FY11 came in at 39%, as the company’s topline witnessed a delayed effect of the inventory destocking issues faced in the 9-months ending FY10. Nevertheless, we expect the company’s overall business to step back on track in the coming quarters and hence, continue to expect a topline and bottomline growth of 27% each for FY11. This was against a negative topline and bottomline growth recorded in FY10.We are also maintaining our earlier EBIDTA margin estimate of 45% for FY11. 7
