Gland Pharma Ltd

GLAND
Pharma - API & CRAMS

Gland Pharma Ltd's earnings have outrun its stock. EPS grew +47.1% in a year against a +44.6% price move.

The sharpest disagreement: Domestic institutions moved −2.4 points over 8 quarters while the operating story went the other way — someone close to the numbers is not convinced.

The price is in a confirmed uptrend (17 weeks in) while the P/E sits at the 68th percentile of its own 5-year range. Underneath, the last four quarters read improving — profit +47.4% year on year, and 118% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash. What settles it: whether the register turns back in the story’s favour.

01 · Price story

Price story Before the numbers, the tape. A stock price moves through four repeating seasons: a flat base (stage 1), an advance (2), a top (3), a decline (4). Where the price sits in that cycle frames everything below.

Gland Pharma Ltd trades at ₹2,922, in a confirmed uptrend and 17 weeks into that stage. That is +30.8% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 96% of a 52-week range of ₹1,627 to ₹2,970. On relative strength it has been ahead of the NIFTY 500 on a trailing-13-week view for 25 straight weeks.

Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 17 of stage 2, confirmed. At ₹2,922 it trades +30.8% versus its 200-day average and sits at 96% of its 52-week range (₹1,627–₹2,970).

Sep 26: ₹2,922 Weekly closing price (₹) with 50- and 200-day averages; shaded bands mark the price stage (grey base, green advance, amber top, red decline). 3-year window.

Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 5.8 years the stock moved +38% while the NIFTY 500 moved +111% — behind the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock has been ahead for 25 straight weeks — the ribbon below is that same metric, week by week.

What would end the trend, mechanically: two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day line. That is the exit rule — no debates.

Story check

Gland Pharma Ltd's story is not scored yet against the markers our research file set on 22 August 2026. Where it sits in its own cycle: EARLY_EXPANSION. Our fortnightly research layers last read it on 22 August 2026.

NOT YET CHECKED

Our read, 22 August 2026. The CDMO and complex-injectable shift is converting into reported growth, but delayed project timing, a CEO search and expanding working capital keep the stock a monitored execution story.

From the numbers. Trailing and normalized valuation point to a similar middle-of-cycle conclusion because normalized OPM of 29.4% is close to current OPM of 27.2%.

From the price. Price stage 2, week 17 — above its 200-day line, relative strength rising.

From the research. The CDMO and complex-injectable shift is converting into reported growth, but delayed project timing, a CEO search and expanding working capital keep the stock a monitored execution story.

🚨 Where they disagree. This week's cycle snapshot places PE close to its median. The deterministic normalized read is also near the middle of history, with normalized PE of 38.1x versus trailing PE of 40.5x.

What is proven. The CDMO and complex-injectable shift is converting into reported growth, but delayed project timing, a CEO search and expanding working capital keep the stock a monitored execution story.

What is not proven yet. The thesis breaks if FY27 revenue growth falls below the 15% constant-currency framework while Cenexi profitability, vial-line approval and contract conversion fail to offset inventory-led cash absorption.

🚨 What would change our mind. The thesis breaks if FY27 revenue growth falls below the 15% constant-currency framework while Cenexi profitability, vial-line approval and contract conversion fail to offset inventory-led cash absorption.

Layer 1 read, 22 August 2026 — KEEP. Bottom of its own returns cycle with profit accelerating four quarters running — admitted on delivery, not discount. Gland makes sterile injectable medicines and increasingly manufactures them for other drug companies. Profit fell hard in 2024 and is now recovering fast: revenue 1,800 crore rupees and profit 317 crore rupees in the June quarter, up 19.5% and 47.4% on a year earlier, with margin at 27% against 24%. What separates it from the rest of this batch is that the cash matches the profit — the company generated 1.18 rupees of operating cash for every rupee of reported profit over three years — and it is doing this while return on capital, at 15.1%, is still near the bottom of its own historical 12-to-28 range, so the recovery has room. The catch is the price: at 40.6 times earnings there is…

What would change Layer 1’s mind. Constant-currency revenue growth printing below 15% in the September 2026 quarter while Cenexi's margin stays under 5% — the two together mean the growth framework management RAISED in August (from the 12-13% guided in May) was optimism, and with a 40.6 multiple and no margin of safety there is nothing to absorb the disappointment. A second, slower trigger: operating cash falling below reported profit for a full year while inventory days climb again — that would turn the capacity build from…

Layer 2 read, 22 August 2026 — ADVANCE. Gland's CDMO shift is already in revenue and cash, despite a risky sector capacity wave. June 2026 revenue rose to Rs 1,800 crore and profit to Rs 317 crore, while management says CDMO is already 50% of group revenue. The sector calls Gland the clean mid-history expression, but capex +28.02% and CWIP +19.7% make the supply flood a real forward risk.

What would change Layer 2’s mind. Flip to DROP if FY27 constant-currency revenue growth falls below 15% while the vial line remains unapproved and another Gland commercial project date moves beyond 2029.

Layer 3 read, 22 August 2026 — DEPLOY. The CEO gap is closing and no new regulatory damage offsets the already-delivering CDMO shift. CDMO revenue is already 50% of group revenue and grew 20% year on year, so the thesis does not rely only on future capacity. L3’s targeted search found that Deepak Sapra is due to join as CEO on 16 Nov 2026, directly mitigating Timeline R3. The remaining caution is delivery timing: GP3-GP6 record launch, project and capex changes, so management remains WATCHLIST rather than PASS.

What would change Layer 3’s mind. Constant-currency revenue growth below 15% in the Sep 2026 quarter would flip DEPLOY to BENCH because it would miss the current framework without valuation protection.

CIO read, 22 August 2026 — BENCH. NOT ADMITTED (incoming, benched) · forward-asymmetry 36/100 · CLEAR_NO_CONTEST. The operating recovery is real, but the share price rose 64.5% in four months and ran ahead of the EPS curve. Judged EPS growth of 18.0% falls short of the model-implied 23.6%, leaving a derived -5.6-point gap.

The test written in advance. The thesis breaks if FY27 revenue growth falls below the 15% constant-currency framework while Cenexi profitability, vial-line approval and contract conversion fail to offset inventory-led cash absorption. — the thesis as written as stated by the next result.

What the company does. Reported revenue and profit are ahead of the comparable quarter, while the latest margin eased from the preceding quarter. Management has raised its medium-term growth framing and is building capacity around CDMO, sterile injectables and European manufacturing. Valuation is around the historical middle rather than at a trough, so approvals, cash conversion and contract timing matter more than a multiple rerating.

🚨 What the surface reading misses. The surface reading is: Q1 FY27 revenue and PAT were higher than the comparable quarter. The research reads it further: Revenue growth was accompanied by PAT growth, although OPM eased sequentially from 29% to 27%, so the quarter does not establish uninterrupted margin expansion.

🚨 What the surface reading misses. The surface reading is: The calculated YoY comparison shows revenue and PAT growth. The research reads it further: PAT growth exceeded revenue growth, while OPM improved from 24% in Jun 2025 to 27% in Jun 2026; sequential OPM and PAT were below Mar 2026.

Lever 1 · Operating leverage — BUILDING. CDMO and B2B activity support the current growth base, with sterile-injectable transfers creating a later revenue runway. What proves it keeps working: CDMO mix and contract conversion. It stops working if Customer filings, technology transfers or site approvals delay commercial launches beyond management’s revised timetable.

Lever 2 · Value-added mix — BUILDING. Cenexi profitability and site modernization can lift contribution if release delays and utilization improve as planned. What proves it keeps working: Cenexi utilization and European manufacturing. It stops working if Quality releases remain delayed or modernization disrupts output without a compensating utilization gain.

Lever 3 · Management change — BUILDING. US revenue growth was led by recent launches, existing-product volumes and contracted demand. What proves it keeps working: US launch basket and B2B demand. It stops working if Launch volumes fail to persist or generic competition offsets contracted demand.

03 · Revenue

Revenue Revenue is the top line: everything the company billed its customers in the period.

Gland Pharma Ltd reported ₹1,800 Cr of revenue in the Jun 26 quarter, +19.5% year on year. That is the 5th straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 6 years it has compounded at 16.0% a year. The last full year, FY26, came in at ₹6,431 Cr. The last four reported quarters add to ₹6,725 Cr.

FY26 revenue came in at ₹6,431 Cr (+14.5% on the year), capping 6 years at 16.0% compound. The latest quarter (Jun 26) printed ₹1,800 Cr, +19.5% year on year — the 5th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.

04 · Operating margin

Operating margin Operating margin is what is left of every ₹100 of sales after running the business, before interest and tax. It is the cleanest read on pricing power and cost control.

Gland Pharma Ltd's operating margin is 27.0% in the Jun 26 quarter, +3.0 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 7 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 23.0% to 38.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.

Why this happened. Management reported CDMO revenue of Rs 8,915 million, up 20% YoY and 50% of group revenue. The sterile-injectable agreement spans 55 SKUs across three sites, with launches from CY2029. Higher-complexity manufacturing improves economics only when transfers convert into commercial launches.

The latest quarter's operating margin is 27.0%, +3.0 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 7 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 23.0%–38.0%.

Why the margin moved: operating margin went +2.8 pp year on year while gross margin went −0.1 pp — the gain came mostly below the gross line: operating leverage, with costs spread over a bigger revenue base.

05 · Net profit

Net profit Net profit is what survives every cost, interest and tax — the number EPS, dividends and book value all grow from.

Gland Pharma Ltd earned ₹317 Cr of net profit in the Jun 26 quarter, +47.4% year on year. It is the 5th consecutive quarter of growth. Full-year FY26 profit was ₹1,027 Cr. The 6-year compound rate is 4.8%. That is 17.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ₹215 Cr.

Jun 26 profit was ₹317 Cr, +47.4% year on year — the 5th consecutive quarter of growth. On the full year, FY26 printed ₹1,027 Cr (+46.9%), and the 6-year compound rate is 4.8%.

Why profit moved: revenue contributed +19.5% and the margin +3.0 pp — the quarter was margin-led: most of the profit growth came from keeping more of each sale.

Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit +45.8% vs revenue +17.5%. Profit is growing faster than sales — fixed costs are being spread over a bigger base, and each extra rupee of revenue drops more to the bottom line.

FY26-Q4. revenue ₹1,743 Cr and profit ₹367 Cr as reported.

06 · Cash flow — the router

Cash flow — the router The P&L says what was earned; the cash-flow statement says what actually arrived. Operating cash flow (CFO) against profit is the cleanest lie detector in the accounts.

Over the last 3 fiscal years 118% of Gland Pharma Ltd's reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY26 that was ₹1,031 Cr of operating cash against ₹1,027 Cr of profit. After ₹960 Cr of capital spending, ₹71.0 Cr was left as free cash.

FY26: operating cash of ₹1,031 Cr against reported profit of ₹1,027 Cr, leaving free cash of ₹71.0 Cr after ₹960 Cr of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 118% of profit.

Cash-flow readings here are annual — that is the resolution our series carries, so this section moves once a year.

FY26: CFO ₹1,031 Cr vs profit ₹1,027 Cr Operating cash flow and net profit by fiscal year, ₹ Cr; the line is free cash flow (CFO minus capital spending). 7-year window, annual resolution.

138%113%89%65%40%%100%FY20FY23FY26

Why conversion sits at 118%: the cash cycle tightened 31 days between FY21 and FY26 — cash that used to wait in the cycle now reaches the bank sooner.

Router verdict: the bigger cash user is investment — capital spending ran 3.7× depreciation over three years, so the next section's job is to check what that build-out is buying.

07 · Where the cash goes

Where the cash goes Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid: debtor days (customers owe), inventory days (stock waits), and the cash conversion cycle (the whole loop, in days of sales).

Gland Pharma Ltd's cash conversion cycle runs 255 days in FY26, down from 286 days in FY21. Capital spending ran ₹4,233 Cr over the last 3 years. At FY26 sales of ₹6,431 Cr each day of that cycle holds about ₹17.6 Cr, so roughly ₹4,493 Cr sits inside the business at any moment.

FY26: debtors at 107 days, inventory at 284 days — roughly 9.3 months of stock waiting to sell; that is where the cash sits while it waits — for a full cycle of 255 days, tighter than FY21's 286.

The full loop: cash goes out to suppliers and production on day 0; stock waits 284 days to sell; customers pay about 107 days after that; and suppliers themselves are paid at 136 days — netting out to the 255-day cycle.

In money terms: at FY26 sales of ₹6,431 Cr, each day of the cycle holds about ₹17.6 Cr — so the 255-day loop keeps roughly ₹4,493 Cr sitting inside the business at any moment.

On the investment side: capital spending of ₹4,233 Cr over the last 3 fiscal years against ₹1,147 Cr of depreciation — the company is building well ahead of wear-and-tear. Capital work-in-progress stands at ₹342 Cr (FY26) — capacity paid for but not yet earning.

The synthesis: the cash is going into capacity, not disappearing into the cycle — the question becomes whether the new capacity earns.

08 · Return on capital

Return on capital Return on capital employed (ROCE) is the profit the whole business earns on all the money in it — equity and debt together. It is the single best test of whether growth creates value or just size.

Gland Pharma Ltd earns a ROCE of 15% in FY26. That is up from a trough of 12% in FY25. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by +0.7 percentage points, so growth here adds value rather than only size. The wiring behind it is 16.0% net margin on 0.52× asset turns.

FY26 ROCE is 15%, recovered from a FY25 trough of 12% — the full ladder below shows the fall and the climb, undoctored.

Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY26): 16.0% net margin × 0.52× asset turns × 1.20× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 10.0% on equity. Margin is doing the heavy lifting; leverage is modest — this is an earned return, not a borrowed one.

The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 12.7% − 12.0% = a +0.7 pp spread. The 12.0% is a standing assumption for the cost of capital in India, not a per-stock estimate — read the sign and the size of the spread, not the decimals. Positive but thin — value creation with little room for error.

09 · Debt

Debt Debt-to-equity says how much of the business is funded by borrowings. Low is the safe corner; the trend matters as much as the level.

Gland Pharma Ltd carries total debt of ₹284 Cr against shareholder equity of ₹10,358 Cr as of Mar 26, a debt-to-equity of 0.03 — effectively unlevered. On the annual view that ratio went from 0.00 in FY22 to 0.03 in FY26. The returns elsewhere on this page are therefore earned rather than borrowed.

10 · Ownership

Ownership Who owns the stock, quarter by quarter: promoters (the controlling owners), foreign and domestic institutions, and the public. Steady accumulation by people close to the numbers is a signal; a quiet register is also an answer.

Domestic institutions cut 2.4 points of Gland Pharma Ltd over 8 quarters, the biggest move on the register. That takes domestic institutions to 30.4% of the company. Foreign institutions moved +1.9 points over the same window, to 8.7%. The register is read on the four disclosed classes only; nothing is inferred between filings.

Why this happened. Management reported US revenue of Rs 9,810 million, up 32% YoY, driven by recent CDMO launches and existing-product volumes. Dalbavancin faces competition but has contracted demand. Continued volume conversion, rather than a single launch print, is required.

The register over the last two years — Domestic institutions: −2.4 points over 8 quarters to 30.4%; Foreign institutions: +1.9 points over 8 quarters to 8.7%; Promoters: −0.1 points over 8 quarters to 51.8%.

Why the register moved: rotation — foreign institutions +1.9 points against domestic institutions −2.4 points over 8 quarters, with promoters holding steady — one class of institutions handing the register to the other, not a verdict change by the people closest to the numbers.

Fiscal-year ends: promoters −6.0 pts from Mar 24 to Mar 26 Shareholding at each fiscal-year end (March quarter), % of the company. 3 year-ends held.

11 · Safety line

Safety line The Z-score estimates how far a company sits from balance-sheet distress — above roughly 3 is safe, below roughly 1.8 is the danger zone. It was built for manufacturers, so it is not applied to banks and lenders.

Gland Pharma Ltd: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one. It is a distance-to-distress estimate from the balance sheet, not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections above carry the balance-sheet evidence this page does hold, and each of them states its own reporting date.

12 · Valuation

Valuation P/E is the price of ₹1 of annual profit: how many rupees the market pays for each rupee the company earns in a year.

Gland Pharma Ltd trades at 42.1× P/E, mid-range by its own standards (68th percentile). Its long-run median P/E is 38.8×, measured across 5.3 years of weekly readings. This places the multiple against the stock’s own record, and says nothing about what the business is worth.

Today's P/E of 42.1× is mid-range by its own standards (68th percentile), against a long-run median of 38.8× measured over 5.3 years of weekly readings. This is a comparison against the stock's own history — not a claim about what it is worth.

Why the multiple sits where it does: over the past year annual EPS moved +47.1% against a +44.6% price move — earnings outran the price, pushing the multiple DOWN its own range.

The price move, decomposed: over 5y, of the −5.5%/yr price move, ~+2.7%/yr came from earnings growth and ~−8.2 pp from the multiple (compressing). The split is the honest approximate (price return minus earnings growth); it makes the rally itself visible instead of hiding it behind the percentile.

Put together: the multiple is full against its own past, so the story rests on the earnings line underneath it, not the multiple.

13 · Stage: Mixed

Stage: Mixed Every business sits somewhere on a fundamental arc, and this page names the spot before anything else. The last twelve quarters of revenue, profit and EPS growth — plus the return the business earns on its capital — are read as curves: Deteriorating (the curves are falling), Turning around (a trough has just formed and the last few quarters lift off it), Improving (the climb off the trough is sustained), Consistent (steadily positive with healthy returns), Topping out (still high but decelerating from the peak). When the curves genuinely disagree the read is Mixed; too little history is No read. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the smooth yearly pace that turns the starting value into the latest one — the fairest way to compare growth across different time spans. Read the columns together: if the 1-year number towers over the 10-year, recent growth is running hotter than the long-run trend. A dash means that window is not held, or the base year was a loss (where a growth rate is not meaningful).

Gland Pharma Ltd reads as mixed on its fundamental arc. Mixed — the growth curves are steadily positive, but ROCE at 14.6% is below the 15% bar this page requires to call it Consistent. The read is built from 12 quarters across 4 curves, on full evidence.

4-Factor Sector Score

69.7/100 — rank 5 of 24 in Pharma - API & CRAMS · 100% evidence confidence

Gland Pharma Ltd scores 69.7 out of 100 against the 24 companies it is compared with in Pharma - API & CRAMS, ranking 5. Balanced evidence: keep at normal research priority and require another comparable period before raising conviction.

The four contributions add to the total exactly: 26.4 + 13.9 + 14.2 + 15.2 = 69.7. This is the SAME number shown on the sector comparison — it is computed once, for the whole peer set, and read here.

What would change it: The read weakens if profit growth turns negative or margin improvement reverses while sector-relative strength deteriorates.

15 · Said versus delivered

Said versus delivered

What Gland Pharma Ltd's management promised, set against what actually arrived — 4 tracked promises on the record. Read straight from the company’s own earnings calls. A promise that slipped stays on this page after it is met.

CDMO Project Commercialization Timeline Moved to 2029 · 10 August 2026. In Jan 2026, management said the new CDMO project was expected to commercialize in the third or fourth quarter of FY28, or by the end of 2028. In Aug 2026, management stated that the NGDS project would be in 2028 but commercialization would occur in 2029, indicating a material timeline shift without an explanation for the delay.

Gland CEO Vacancy Without Explanation · 15 May 2026. Mr. Shyamakant Giri served as CEO and delivered detailed operational commentary in both the Nov 2025 and Jan 2026 earnings calls. In the May 2026 call, no Gland CEO is named in the management roster and, when asked, management disclosed they are actively searching for a replacement with a CDMO and biotech background, offering no explanation for when or why the position became vacant. This is a material governance concern with direct implications for execution credibility and investor confidence.

Biologics CDMO Expansion Plan Quietly Abandoned · 15 May 2026. Both the Nov 2025 and Jan 2026 calls presented the expansion of biologics CDMO capacity from 8 KL to 23 KL as a stated strategic priority, with Jan 2026 explicitly noting a Greenfield build was planned at Shamirpet with active customer discussions underway. The May 2026 call materially contradicts this by characterizing biologics as a slow-burn strategy where no significant investment has yet been placed, representing an unexplained and material strategic retreat from a previously committed initiative.

🚨 FY27 Consolidated Growth Guidance Below Prior Mid-Teens Commitment · 15 May 2026. The Nov 2025 call explicitly stated confidence in achieving mid-teens consolidated revenue growth in coming couple of years, a statement that directly covers FY27. The May 2026 call now guides FY27 consolidated growth at 12-13% on a constant currency basis, which is materially below the approximately 15% mid-teens level previously communicated, and no clear explanation has been provided in the latest call for this downward revision.

Every quote above is taken word for word from the company’s own earnings calls.

Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led NIFTY 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led NIFTY 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.
