Synopsis
KKR-backed JB Pharma forecasts its revenues to grow 12-14% and the earnings before
interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation (Ebitda) margins by 27-28% in FY25, the
company’s top executive said.
He added that the growth forecast is based on existing business, and any
acquisition will be accretive. Chopra said the contract development and
manufacturing organisation (CDMO) business which contributes 13% of total
revenue is expected to see growth revving up from second half of FY25 led by
new order in�ows from Europe, US, and entries into new geographies like
Brazil and Mexico. JB Pharma is one of the world’s leading producers of
lozenges.
For FY24, JB Pharma posted its highest ever �nancial numbers. The Mumbai-
based company’s revenue grew 11% YoY to ₹3,484 crore. The Ebitda margin
grew 330 basis points YoY to 27%, while pro�t after tax grew 35% YoY to ₹553
crore. Chopra said India and CDMO should constitute around 75-80% of total
revenue in 2-3 years.
Domestic (54%) and CDMO (13%) constitute 67% of total revenue in FY24. JB
Pharma is also lining up new product registrations and launches in Sub-
Saharan Africa, Latin America, Southeast Asia and Middle East regions.
Chopra said the results of commercialisation will be seen in FY26.
Under his watch, JB Pharma has completed four acquisitions investing $200
