SE Code: 506690 NSE Code: UNICHEMLAB Reuters Code: UNLB.BO Bloomberg Code: UL:INUnichem Laboratories Limited (Unichem) is an integratedpharmaceutical company with strong presence in domesticormulations market. The company enjoys strong foothold inhe chronic segment having leadership in cardiology and
neurology segments. It has demonstrated its ability to buildarge brands in growing categories (like its ` 1.6bn brand -
Losar in cardiac care) by retaining prescribers and generatingnew prescriptions at family physician level.
Domestic business growth which slowed down in FY12 has revivedin 9MFY13 led by various initiatives taken by the company suchas increased focus on prescription generation, strong addition tothe field force, developing second-tier of major brands and changein the distribution model. The company is also developingdermatology & gynaecology portfolio through addition of newMRs. We believe the growth momentum to continue and revenueexpected to grow at CAGR 18% for FY12-FY14E.
Unichem is expected to enhance presence in US on back of newproduct launches, despite being the late entrant. It has filed for27 ANDAs till date and has 11 approvals of which 9 are launchedin US. It has guided for 1-2 filing per quarter in US going ahead.
Significant capacities at Ghaziabad, Sikkim and Baddi placesUnichem in a better position to attract contract manufacturing
agreements with MNCs from its facilities. Contract Research andManufacturing Services (CRAMS) as a segment could be a bigopportunity for the company and one new contract expected inFY14 would spur growth next fiscal.
Unichems debt free balance sheet enables it to explore neworganic and inorganic growth opportunities. The sale of MadhyaPradesh based new formulation manufacturing facility to MylanLaboratories Limited (Mylan) for a total consideration of ` 1.6 bnwill further bolster the companys cash position. Revenues andearnings are expected to clock 19.5% and 43.7% CAGRrespectively over FY12-14E, with an EPS of ` 16.3 in FY14E.
Key Risk
Break-even of Niche Generics Ltd (UK Subsidiary) and UnichemPharmaceuticals USA Inc. (US Subsidiary) has been delayed dueto lower growth in European market and delay for approvals byUSFDA in US market. However, we believe both the subsidiariesto gain traction over the next two years with number of productslined up for approvals.
Valuation
Unichem has taken the necessary steps to revive the domesticormulations business which would fuel the future growth. Continuousield force addition has turned productive during the year. At the CMP,he stock is trading at 10.3x FY14 E earnings and looks attractive,
considering its balance sheet strength. We recommend a BUY with aarget price of ` 212 based on 13x FY 14E earnings.

Meanwhile, Unichem also focused on powering its next phase of products with intend to lowertheir dependence on their existing brands (Ampoxin and Losar group which jointly contributedabout 57% of the revenues in FY10, now their share stood at 31.6% to the revenues). Thecompany has successfully developed brands like TELSAR and OLSAR which offer high growthpotential. The company is leveraging the brand equity of its existing flagship brands tonurture the growth of its second tier power brands. TELSAR group of products, used forhypertension have generated revenues of ` 400 mn . Other group of brands i.e. OLSAR, usedfor cardiac care, has generated revenues of ` 370 mn. It is also expanding its sales force inorder to capture the larger domestic market share.
Started reaping rewards of restructuring and corrective measures undertaken overthe past few years
Unichem s restructuring exercise taken over the past few years has been delivering positiveresults for the company as domestic branded formulations and API sales grew ~17% and7.4% on YoY basis, respectively during 9MFY 13. The company has changed its distributionmodel to companys own C&F agents from the earlier distributors model. The motive behindtransition is that the company wants to lower its dependence on distributors and also to avoidtax related issues when expected GST roll-out takes place next year. It also target todecrease inventory days to 30-40 days from the current 50-60 days for the domesticformulation business. A change in the distribution model involved de-stocking at thedistributors end or larger revenue share from C&F agents. C&F agents work on lower marginsof 3% than distributors which charge around 4.5%. The company hopes to improve thebenefits from larger sales primarily through C&F agents in future. As per the management,the attritions rate of MR has come down due to change in the HR policy which also facilitatedhigher growth in the domestic formulations business.
We expect the distribution model re-alignment to provide impetus to the future growthtrajectory.

Robust Balance Sheet to augment organic and inorganic growth
Unichem s balance sheet is debt free. The company is very well placed to raise the fundsthrough internal accruals or going for marginal debt for future expansion purpose. Thecompany is planning to set up a biotech facility in Goa for which it has acquired additional landnear to its existing facility. It is also exploring inorganic growth opportunities for whichfunding would not be an issue given its strong balance sheet.
Moreover, the company recently sold the new formulation manufacturing unit located atPithampur Special Economic Zone (SEZ), Madhya Pradesh, to Mylan for a total considerationof ` 1.6 bn. The exercise was done on slump sale basis. This sale will bolster the companyscash position further.
Unichem is eyeing acquisitions in the space of dermatology, women health care or ophthalmicspace and also in similar product lines, which would help in expanding their market share. The
management of the company has also shown keen interest in therapeutic areas of gynecologyand hospitals segment which can be the future growth drivers for the company. We believethat capacity expansion and the inorganic growth would provide additional incremental growthfor the company.

Approval of new products by USFDA, any CRAMS deal withMNC, break-even of international subsidiaries and organicor inorganic expansion would act as potential triggers,further.
