India's Gland Pharma beats quarterly estimates on strong Europe, US sales

By Reuters News

- India's Gland Pharma GLAD.NS reported a bigger-than-expected 58.3% jump in second-quarter profit on Friday, boosted by strong sales in its key European and US markets.

The Hyderabad-based company's consolidated net profit of 2.91 billion rupees ($30.9 million) was up from 1.84 billion rupees a year ago, beating analysts' average estimate of 2.75 billion rupees, according to data compiled by LSEG.


Here are some more details:

  • Its US sales, which make up more than half of the total, rose 42% in the quarter ended September 30, while the European business climbed 30%

  • Gland Pharma's results have consistently improved since a recovery in production at its Cenexi units in France and Belgium in late 2025

  • Disruption at these units had hurt the drugmaker's results throughout most of last year

  • Overall quarterly revenue rose 23.3% to 18.34 billion rupees, also beating estimates of 17.59 billion rupees

  • Gland Pharma and several of its Indian generic drugmaker peers that derive a large share of their revenue from the US have been grappling with limited pricing power amid stiff competition in that market

  • Larger rivals Cipla CIPL.NS and Dr Reddy's REDY.NS also reported subdued US sales during the second quarter
