Commenting on the performance, Chairperson and Managing Director Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw stated: “We have closed the year FY 17 with a strong revenue growth of 18% led by a sturdy performance of our Biologics as well as Small Molecules businesses. On a full year basis, our EBITDA rose 34%, while Net Profit before exceptional item reported a robust growth of 54 %.

Our revenue growth was muted in Q4 FY 17. Our EBITDA margin at 24 % in Q4 reflects a healthy operational performance. Our Net Profit for Q4 at Rs 135 Cr, represents a growth of 75%, after adjusting for an exceptional item in Q4FY16.”

She added: “FY17 was a landmark year wherein we established our credibility as a global biosimilars player with the launch of Biocon’s Insulin Glargine pen in Japan and submission of five regulatory filings of our biosimilars in the developed markets of US and EU. Our Malaysia facility became operational with the Malaysian government’s exclusive contract for Biocon’s insulins, which expanded our footprint in emerging markets. The multiple clinical and regulatory milestones crossed in our biosimilars business augur well for the future.”
