Glenmark Pharma shares soar 8% on FDA clean report, Investec predicts 17% upside

Glenmark Pharma surged 8% to a day’s high of Rs 1,763.90 on BSE after the United States Food & Drug Administration’s (USFDA) Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) inspection at its Aurangabad facility closed with no observations.

Following this, the global brokerage firm Investec initiated a ‘fast long’ on the stock with a target price of Rs 1,900, indicating a 17% upside potential.

“This is to inform you that the United States Food & Drug Administration (USFDA) completed a Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) inspection at the Company’s formulation manufacturing facility based out of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar (Aurangabad), India. The inspection was conducted from 9th September to 20th September, 2024. The inspection closed with no observation,” the company on Saturday informed via an exchange filing.

Post this, the global brokerage firm said that it expects both earnings momentum and importantly cash flow generation to continue. Additionally, it sees Glenmark as more of an India / RoW play as these two contribute >70% of its EBITDA.

“The company’s Aurangabad facility is getting zero observations, which does provide a near-term trigger as this is a critical facility,” said Investec in its note.
