As we are consciously investing in Radiopharma, CDMO Sterile Injectables and CRDMO business to secure future growth, Net Debt / EBITDA increased from 1.1x in Mar’25 to 1.5x in Sep’25.

During Q2’FY26, we saw exceptional growth momentum in the Ruby-Fill® installs. In the Allergy Immunotherapy business, we witnessed increase in demand from the US market.

Segmental Business Performance

Radiopharma – Leading Radiopharmaceutical manufacturer & 2^nd largest Radiopharmacy network in the US

Radiopharmaceuticals Q2’FY26 revenue grew by 16% to Rs. 291 Cr. and EBITDA increased by 6% YoY at Rs. 127 Cr. The business continues to maintain a strong position in the high margin SPECT imaging product portfolio. In the Ruby-Fill® as we are able to demonstrate superior value proposition against competition, we are able to attract new channel partners. In the last one year, our Ruby-Fill® install base has grown by 24%. This improved scale is also helping to increase EBITDA margins in this product category. We are on track to introduce multiple new products in the PET and SPECT imaging from FY27 to FY29. The dosing for Phase 2 clinical trial for MIBG is complete and we are preparing data package to be submitted to FDA by H2’FY26.

Radiopharmacy Q2’FY26 revenue grew by 7% YoY to Rs. 607 Cr. EBITDA margins for Q2’FY26 stands at 1%. EBITDA margins remained weak due to increased competitive intensity in the SPECT business. Last year, two of our PET radiopharmacies have started distributing PYLARIFY®, which is an industry leading prostate cancer diagnostic imaging agent. We continue to see increase in revenue from PET radiopharmacies.

The proposed investment of US$ 50 million in PET radiopharmacy network is underway. This investment will take the overall PET radiopharmacy network to Nine (9) sites, thereby solidly positioning Jubilant Pharmova’s radiopharmacy network as the second largest in the US and shall drive the future business growth.

Allergy Immunotherapy – No. 2 in the US Sub-Cutaneous allergy immunotherapy market

As the sole supplier of Venom in the US, the business is expanding the overall market by increasing customer awareness. In the US Allergenic extracts, the business is working to increase revenues. The business is also working to increase penetration in the outside US markets.

In Q2’FY26, revenues grew by 14% to Rs. 194 Cr. on the back of growth in revenues from US market. EBITDA increased by 65% on a YoY basis to Rs. 76 Cr. EBITDA margins increased by 1210 bps on a YoY basis to 39%. We anticipate outside US sales to gradually improve.

CDMO Sterile Injectables – Leading contract manufacturer in North America, serving top global innovators

Q2’FY26 revenue grew by 30% to Rs. 393 Cr. due to increase in sales volume in Line 1 & 2 in Spokane and incremental revenue from Line 3 from Technology transfer programs. EBITDA grew by 6% to Rs. 94 Cr due to incremental EBITDA from Line 3. EBITDA margins were lower YoY due to shutdown at Montreal facility on account of internal quality system improvements and facility upgrades to address the current “OAI” status.

The capacity expansion program in Spokane, Washington, USA is on track. We successfully launched new Sterile Fill & Finish line, third at our Spokane Manufacturing Facility in Washington, US with a total investment of US $ 132 million. The launch was marked by the successful production of the inaugural batch, initiating revenue generation from the technology transfer programs. Currently, we are running technology transfer programs for 5 to 6 products across multiple formats (vial sizes) on Line 3. We expect commercial batch production to start from FY27 post FDA approval of these products. In the wake of new tariffs imposed by the US Government, large innovator pharma companies are looking for high quality, US manufacturing facilities. Therefore, we are witnessing a very strong traction in Requests for Proposals (RFPs) for the New Line and expect to reach full utilisation for the Line 3 in the next 3 years. Also, the next phase of capacity expansion at Spokane, Line 4, is also on track and we expect to start commercial production by FY28.

CRDMO – Indian leader for integrated drug discovery & formidable API player

In Q2’FY26, the Drug Discovery business revenue grew by 7% to Rs. 162 Cr. EBITDA margins for Q2’FY26 stands at 21%.  Revenue continue to increase due to increase in revenue from large Pharma customers. We have integrated new R&D facility in France and are now investing in business development. EBITDA margins are lower YoY due to change in project mix and investment in business development. Overall, the medium term outlook continues to be positive on the back of the increase in large pharma clients and the addition in new capabilities.

The API business revenue grew by 8% to Rs. 137 Cr in Q2’FY26. EBITDA for the quarter increased by 70% YoY to Rs. 21 Cr. EBITDA margins are higher YoY due to continued focus on profitable products . We have completed the sale and transfer of API Business to Jubilant Biosys Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. This transaction has resulted in housing of the drug discovery business and CDMO API business in a single business entity. This combined platform will improve the operational efficiency in the business and lead to superior brand recall of “Jubilant Biosys Limited” as provider of end-to-end CRDMO services by the large pharmaceutical & Biotech customers. The transaction will also help to improve asset utilisation of API business by improving the revenue mix towards Custom manufacturing & CDMO.

Generics – Building a growing, profitable & agile business model
