Our First Take: Blue Jet’s 1Q revenue of Rs2.9bn declined 17% YoY but was up Pharmaceuticals & Healthcare

25% QoQ, in line with consensus/JPMe. Contrast media (CM) revenue increased Services

19% YoY but declined by 40% QoQ, whereas PI/API revenue fell by 43% YoY but Bansi Desai, CFA AC

saw a sharp sequential uptick to Rs1.2bn (from Rs24mn in 4Q). The EBITDA (91 22) 6157 3581

margin at 33.5% (-65bps YoY, +310bps QoQ) was ~70bps/~150bps higher than bansi.desai@jpmorgan.com

consensus/JPMe as weakness in gross margins was offset by lower other expenses. Amlan Jyoti Das

Our estimates remain unchanged. Our UW stance is premised on (1) high product

concentration, with two products contributing ~80% of revenues; (2) persistent

weakness in the CM segment (flattish CAGR over FY23-26) and increased

competition from large players, such as Divi’s Lab, in both iodinated and

gadolinated compounds; (3) potential competition for bempedoic acid from

upcoming assets of large innovators (such as Merck’s oral PCSK9); and (4) limited

visibility of the product pipeline, although recent capex estimates have been

guided upwards.
