4 February 2020 GSK Pharma (GLXO) was able to improve profitability over FY17-9MFY20, led by product rationalization/enhanced focus on high-margin products. However, its decision to stop selling Zinetac brand (~6% of sales) should have an adverse impact on near-term growth. We expect 8-9% sales CAGR over the next 2 years after adjusting for the loss of Zinetac sales. We reduce our EPS estimates by 12.8%/1.7%/1.3% and reduce P/E multiple to 41x (from 43x earlier) to factor in the (a) voluntary stoppage of Zinetac, and (b) gradual industry-wide slowdown in the anti-infective category with improved hygienic conditions/lower intensity of epidemics. Revenue declined 6% YoY to INR7.8b (v/s est. Adj. for the voluntary recall of ranitidine products and portfolio-optimization initiative, revenue was up 6% YoY. Gross margin (GM) expanded 430bp YoY (+20bp QoQ) to 57.9%, led by the change in product mix.
