However, strong license income from Salix partially offset the PAT decline. Management expects sales and EBITDA growth in H2FY15 to overcome the shortfall, driven by increased EU sales, South African tender wins, and export growth. The document provides an overview of Cipla's Q2 results and financials, with analysis of growth drivers and maintaining an Accumulate rating.
- Firstsource Solutions reported revenue of $132 million in Q1 FY2018, up 1.8% quarter-over-quarter but only up 0.8% year-over-year. Organic revenue growth was sluggish as key verticals like BFSI and telecom reported weak growth.
- EBITDA margins improved to 8.6% from 8.2% in the previous quarter due to cost optimization but were down significantly from the prior year.
- The analyst maintains a 'Hold' rating and lowers the target price to Rs. 38 based on slower expected growth, currency headwinds, and the sale of the domestic business. Growth is expected to remain challenging across most vertical

- The analyst maintains a "Hold" rating and lowers the target price to Rs. 38 based on slower expected growth, currency headwinds, and the sale of the company's domestic business. Risks to growth include weakness in
- Entertainment Network's (ENIL) Q1 FY18 results showed a decline, with sales down 9.6% year-over-year to Rs. 987 million and EBITDA margins falling to 11% from 21.6% in FY17 due to price hikes not being absorbed and increased employee costs.
- The analyst cuts FY18 and FY19 EPS estimates by 13-19% and lowers the target price to Rs. 780, citing weak H1 results and rich valuations. Recovery is hoped for in festival season sales in H2 but remains uncertain.
- The report maintains a "Sell" rating given expectations of a slow recovery in ENIL's core advertising
Indoco Remedies reported quarterly results slightly below expectations due to restructuring of its domestic business. Sales grew 9% to Rs 216 crore while margins improved. Exports grew 23% but was offset by weak 2% domestic growth. The company expects the domestic segment to recover in the second half of the year. For the full year, sales are expected to grow 19% overall. While the quarter saw short-term impacts of domestic restructuring, the analyst maintains a HOLD recommendation based on the company's business model and expectations for profitability and returns to further expand.
- Intellect Design Arena reported steady Q1 results with revenues of $37.4 million, flat quarter-over-quarter but up 22% year-over-year, in line with estimates. Higher operating leverage led to a significant improvement in EBITDA margins to 5.6% compared to -6.5% a year ago.
- While maintaining a Buy rating, the analyst lowered the target price to Rs 150 from Rs 175 previously to account for a 23% dilution from a rights issue and currency movements.
- Revenue growth is expected to continue but estimates were lowered slightly to reflect currency impacts. Positive free cash flow and a stronger balance sheet are anticipated in FY19.
For the quarter, Alembic Pharma reported sales growth of 23.1% yoy to Rs 463.4 cr, marginally below expectations. EBITDA margins improved by ~285 bps yoy to 19.6%, on the back of lower raw material cost. Hold for a target of Rs359.
PI Industries: Another strong performance; Sales up 16% in Q1FY15IndiaNotes.com
PI Industries posted strong quarter with 16% growth in sales for the quarter. However, key highlight of the quarter is improvement in margins which has moved up by ~348 up yoy and ~859 bps qoq. Hold for a target of Rs465.
Godrej Consumer's Q4 results were slightly below expectations; NeutralIndiaNotes.com
- Godrej Consumer's 4QFY15 results were slightly below expectations, with consolidated net sales growth of 8.2% YoY versus estimated growth of 8%. EBITDA growth was 13% YoY, below the estimated growth of 14%.
- Consolidated gross margins expanded significantly due to lower input costs, but EBITDA margins only grew modestly as advertising spending increased substantially YoY.
- The Indian business grew revenues by 9.8% with strong growth in key categories like home insecticides and hair colors. EBITDA margins for India expanded by 80 bps. However, the international business revenues grew slower than expected at 6.5% in reported terms.
United Phosphorus reported 8.6% year-over-year sales growth to Rs. 1,257 crore for the second quarter of fiscal year 2011, which was below analyst estimates. EBITDA margin was 18.5%, in line with the previous year. PAT grew 13.4% to Rs. 131 crore. Revenue growth was impacted by unfavorable exchange rates and lower sales in North America and Europe due to adverse weather. The company maintained its full-year revenue growth guidance of 8-10% and EBITDA margin expansion target. Analysts maintained an 'Accumulate' rating with a target price of Rs. 228.
Cipla reported subdued quarterly results with net sales growing only 6.7% year-over-year to Rs. 1,318 crore, below expectations. Operating margins fell due to higher expenses. However, full-year sales grew 8% to Rs. 5,358 crore, meeting guidance. Domestic formulations grew 8.5% while exports grew 5% except for APIs which fell 13.4% due to the appreciating rupee. The company expects 8-10% revenue growth in FY2011 and maintained operating margins but this excludes potential upside from new EU and US markets. The report maintains an "accumulate" rating as benefits of recent investments are expected after FY2012.
Q3FY15 Recommendation: Maintain hold on Alembic PharmaIndiaNotes.com
Alembic Pharma reported quarterly sales growth of 4.6% year-over-year to Rs 497 crore, below expectations due to discontinuation of products and lower market share gains. However, margins were maintained at 21.2% due to cost controls. The company expects 100-125 bps annual margin improvement over the next 3-4 years. It is awaiting US FDA inspections this year. The analyst maintains a HOLD recommendation on the stock due to its pipeline, domestic growth, and strong balance sheet. The target price is Rs 493 based on a 20x PE multiple of FY17 estimated earnings.

OJPs are becoming a critical resource for policy-makers and researchers who study the labour market. LMIC continues to work with Vicinity Jobs’ data on OJPs, which can be explored in our Canadian Job Trends Dashboard. Valuable insights have been gained through our analysis of OJP data, including LMIC research lead
Suzanne Spiteri’s recent report on improving the quality and accessibility of job postings to reduce employment barriers for neurodivergent people.
Decoding job postings: Improving accessibility for neurodivergent job seekers
Improving the quality and accessibility of job postings is one way to reduce employment barriers for neurodivergent people.
In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

No near term triggers
Alembic Pharma’s (ALPM) revenue grew 16%YoY to
Rs 8.5bn, led by one off payment from the US
marketing partner to the tune of US$ 5-6mn and
higher volumes in rest of the US portfolio in 4QFY18.
Although EBITDA grew 29% YoY to Rs 1.7bn, it
declined 8% QoQ, largely driven by lower gross
margin and higher R&D spend (14% of sales).
Reported PAT remained flat YoY at Rs 938mn with
relatively higher tax rate in 4QFY18.
Despite 4Q numbers looking good for ALPM and we
have been constructive on ALPM’s long-term story,
we strongly believe that the significant benefits from
the recent investments are back-ended and will be
realized from 2HFY20. Lucrative ANDA filings in the
US will begin only in 4QFY19 and launches
thereafter. In the meanwhile, we expect the
company’s elevated cost structure to keep EBITDA
margin under pressure with operating expenses
increasing without commensurate revenues flowing
in. The impact of this pressure will be exacerbated in
FY19 with growing depreciation and interest cost.
Especially,when the material launches in the US are
too few and far in-between. The key formulation
facility at Panelav is also yet to receive EIR post FDA
inspection, delaying the pending product approvals
further. Maintain NEUTRAL with a revised TP of Rs
535 (18x FY20E EPS).
Highlights of the quarter
▪ US business: ALPM’s performance in the US picked up
in 4QFY18, with US$ 5-6mn one off deferred payment.
Adjusted for this payment, US sales still grew
sequentially. The company has filed 25+ ANDA in FY18
and likely to file similar number of products in FY19.
▪ The green field oral oncology plant and derma plant
are ready to get commissioned in FY19. Filings should
start from 4QFY19. Oncology injectable and general
injectable plants will also get completed by 1HFY19.
▪ Other takeaways: (1) Mgmt guided for higher than
market growth for India formulation segment, (2)
Likely to incur Rs 6bn on Capex in FY19. (3) To spend Rs
4.5-5bn on R&D in FY19.
▪ Near-term outlook: Unexpected approvals for the US
market remain the only trigger for the stock.
