Growth Rate
AI Analysis — Bull vs Bear
Alembic Pharmaceuticals trades at a market cap of Rs 16,472 Cr with a PE of 24x and dividend yield of 1.43%. The company shows a TTM sales growth acceleration to 14% and profit growth of 26%, but its 5-year compounded profit growth remains negative at -9% and stock CAGR over 5 years is just 2%.
- TTM sales growth has accelerated to 14%, significantly above the 5-year CAGR of 6% and 3-year CAGR of 9%, indicating improving revenue momentum
- TTM profit growth of 26% and 3-year compounded profit growth of 28% signal a strong earnings recovery cycle
- Healthy dividend payout ratio of 35.7% demonstrates management commitment to returning capital to shareholders
- Dividend yield of 1.43% provides reasonable income support relative to pharma sector peers
- ROE has recovered to 13% in the last year, matching the 3-year average of 13% and showing stability in return generation
- 10-year compounded sales CAGR of 9% indicates a consistent long-term revenue base despite near-term volatility
- PE of 24x is reasonable for a mid-cap pharma company showing 26% TTM profit growth, implying a PEG ratio below 1 on trailing earnings growth
- 5-year compounded profit growth is negative at -9%, indicating a prolonged earnings decline before the recent recovery
- 5-year sales CAGR of only 6.37% reflects poor top-line growth over a meaningful period
- Stock price CAGR of just 2% over both 3 and 5 years shows the market has not rewarded the company despite recent profit recovery
- Price-to-book of 2.92x is elevated given the 3-year ROE of only 12.7%, suggesting limited value creation above cost of equity
- 10-year compounded profit growth of 0% means the company has generated no incremental earnings over a full decade
- 10-year stock CAGR of just 3% has significantly underperformed broader market indices over the same period
- Low tax rate flagged as a concern may indicate unsustainable tax benefits that could normalize and compress future earnings
- Potential capitalization of interest costs raises questions about true operating profitability and debt servicing burden

AI News Digest
- US branded business margin dilution Aug 10
Management noted 150 bps margin dilution from the new US branded business in FY27, though positive profit contributions are expected from FY28 onwards.
- FY27 revenue outlook upgraded mid-teens Aug 10
Alembic reported 26% revenue surge in Q1FY27 and raised full-year growth outlook to mid-teens, driven by US generics segment growing mid-to-high teens.
- 15+ new US product launches planned Aug 4
Alembic plans to introduce more than 15 new products in the US market by FY27, expanding its generics portfolio.
- USFDA approval for Prucalopride Tablets Jul 28
Secured final USFDA approval for Prucalopride Tablets (1 mg and 2 mg), addressing a $100 million market opportunity and raising total ANDA approvals to 245.
- AGM approves financials and dividend Aug 5
16th AGM concluded on Aug 5, 2026 with shareholders approving FY26 financials, dividend declaration, and board appointments including a new independent director.
- Q1FY27 earnings call hosted Aug 4
Post-results conference call held on August 4, 2026 at 5:30 PM IST for analysts and institutional investors; audio recording made available on official website.
TL;DR: Alembic Pharmaceuticals is executing well on US generics growth with a strong Q1FY27 (26% revenue surge) and upgraded full-year guidance to mid-teens. The pipeline is robust with 245 ANDA approvals and 15+ new US launches planned. Near-term margin headwind of 150 bps from the US branded segment is the key risk, but management expects this to turn profitable by FY28. The trend is clearly improving with momentum in the US business driving the upgrade cycle.
