Notes from Syngene AGM. Considering the nature of business they don’t share any specifi detail of drugs,research activity …etc.( there may be few mistake by me while preparing the notes).
Big global players continue to outsource research activity as their strategy. Small virtual companies don’t have assets and capability comes to Syngene for the research. Witnessing increased activity from small virtual companies. New customers addition will continue as a strategy.
New customers initially take time and gives small orders and once they found and confident about Syngene increase the orders with us. This process of increasing our business with clients which use to take 5 to 10 years has reduced to 3 yrs with new customers.
Syngene was able to establish its name in CRO space and created value for customers.
Dedicated R&D centres and long term strategic relationship with customers like BMS, Merck,Amgen,Baxter. Our partners are proud to be associated and have a world class facility here. Expanding dedicated centres to customers. Even if some customers did not renew deal we can use the centre for other R&D. We train people to work like our client.
Offering integrated services from discovery to commercialization in pharma,biotech,agrochemicals,nutrition…etc.
Tie up with govt of India for advanced study on proteins backed by BIRAC…established centre at Bengaluru campus.
New research Center in Hyderabad operational in Q2.
Last few years few molecules have progressed to phase 4 and some have failed. We have done commercial production of few molecules but they are small in size. In future we are looking for large molecules. No exclusive agreement with customers when we are involved in the initial stages of drug to manufacture them on commercial scale in future…but that’s what we are looking in future as a vertical addition to CRO business.
Mangalore API facility for manufacturing will be completed by end of FY20 but approvals from plant will atke time.Tax holiday for ?10-15 yrs.
FTE is not reducing around 40 lac/FTE.
Revenue booking on % completion method.
Growth was lead by discovery and dedicated centre’s in future manufacturing division will be vertical addition.
Assets turnover 1:1 Investment made by syngene indirectly tells about possible revenue in future. Increase in asset in next two years assets turn to remain around 1:1.
Net cash+… Next two year of investment mostly by internal accrual.
Customers pay some amount in advance
Added new leadership in compliance, discovery and operations.
