Valuation & Outlook

Caplin posted strong Q4FY21 and FY21 results. After scripting a unique story by growing in uncharted territories, it is looking at growth in known markets. These new markets of South America and the US are a big opportunity but fraught with new challenges. That said, we continue to believe in Caplin's capability to replicate the success story in new markets. Secondly, despite likely dent in margins, return ratios due to investment phase in new markets, these prints continue to demonstrate earnings, balance sheet strength. By thriving in lesser known CA markets and cracking the most difficult US generic pharma code of injectables, that too in different therapies, the company has created its own identity with long drawn plans on the back of significant capex lever. Caplin continues to present a compelling risk-reward scenario at current valuations. We maintain BUY rating and arrive at our target price of Rs. 695 (Rs. 605 earlier) based on 15x FY23E EPS of Rs. 46.3.
