Results for the twelve-month period ended 30 June 2022
Beximco Pharmaceuticals Limited ("Beximco Pharma", "BPL" or "the Company"; AIM Symbol: BXP, LEI No.: 213800IMBBD6TIOQGB56), the fast-growing manufacturer of generic pharmaceutical products and active pharmaceutical ingredients, today announces its audited results for the twelve months ended 30 June 2022.
Highlights
Financial (consolidated) - Strong domestic performance underpins growth in challenging macro environment
· Net sales increased 17.5% to Bangladesh Taka ("BDT") 34,669.2m / £309.7m (2020-21: BDT 29,493.6m / £251.4m)
o Domestic sales increased 21.3% to BDT 31,984.1m/ £285.8m (2020-21: BDT 26,369.6m / £224.8m)
o Export sales decreased 14.0% to BDT 2,685.1m / £24.0m (2020-21: BDT 3,124.0m / £26.6m)
· Profit after tax decreased 3.2% to BDT 4,998.6m / £44.7m (2020-21: BDT 5,165.7m / £44.0m)
· EPS for the year amounted to BDT 11.48
· Recommended 35% cash dividend (BDT 3.5 per share)
Operational - continued strengthening of domestic position while building international presence
· Launched a total of 30 new products (fifty-one presentations) in Bangladesh market, nine of them introduced for the first time in the country
· Launched world's first generic of MSD's Molnupiravir, an oral antiviral drug for COVID-19 treatment as well the first generic copy of Pfizer's Paxlovid, the first US FDA approved breakthrough drug for COVID-19 treatment
· Completed acquisition of 54.6% stake in Sanofi Bangladesh Limited with effect from 1 October 2021; and subsequently changed the name of the company to Synovia Pharma PLC; integration on-track
· Launched three new products (seven presentations) from subsidiary, Synovia Pharma PLC, in the domestic market including the antihistamine product Phenergan Plus first time in Bangladesh
· Distributed 8 million doses of Oxford/AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine over the period, with a cumulative 15 million doses delivered under the tripartite agreement between the Serum Institute of India (SII), Government of Bangladesh (GOB) and Beximco Pharma
o Looking forward, the broader availability of Covid-19 vaccines in Bangladesh (due, in part, to donations made directly to Bangladesh), means that it is unlikely that GOB will seek to procure any further vaccine doses through this agreement for the foreseeable future
· Granted two sub-licences by the United Nations-backed Medicines Patent Pool (MPP) to produce the generic versions of MSD's Molnupiravir and Pfizer's Paxlovid (both COVID-19 drugs)
· Won the Global Generics & Biosimilars Awards 2021 in the category of "Company of the year, Asia Pacific"

UK
· Started manufacturing of Olopatadine Eye Drop, indicated for the treatment of allergic conjunctivitis, under CMO arrangement with a UK Company
· Received Marketing Authorizations for Beta-Cardone (Sotalol) tablets and Quinine Bisulphate tablets in the UK. Beta-Cardon is prescribed to treat fast irregular heartbeats and Quinine Bisulphate is used in the treatment of chloroquine-resistant malaria and for the nocturnal leg cramps in adults and the elderly.
RoW
· Completed 32 registrations for 28 products in 11 countries
· Entered four new countries: Morocco, St.Lucia, Georgia, Timor-Leste (East Timor)
· Received approval for Bromhexine tablets in Australia (post-period)
Update on COVID-19 Vaccine Supply
As noted above, there was an increase in COVID-19 vaccine supply into Bangladesh in the second half of the financial year, including substantial donations of surplus vaccine from other countries. This, combined with a widespread lack of desire for a third dose from the general population, means that it is unlikely that any further orders will be made through the agreement between SII, GOB and Beximco Pharma and that little to no revenues will be associated with this deal for the foreseeable future. A further announcement will be made in the event that this status changes.
Beximco Pharma managing director Nazmul Hassan MP commented,
"In the current challenging macro environment, we are delighted to be able to report another period of revenue growth. While we have seen the economic downturn have an adverse impact on some of our export markets, this has been more than offset by our domestic performance. With organic growth coupled with the acquisition of Sanofi Bangladesh (now Synovia Pharma), we have continued to further consolidate our domestic market position. Simultaneously, we have maintained our focus on growing our position in high-value markets, such as the US and UK through more product approvals during the period.
"Over the first quarter of the new financial year, we are seeing the impact of numerous headwinds such as the war in Ukraine, supply chain disruptions and record depreciation of local currency. While we expect these issues to have an impact on Q1 and beyond, we remain committed to expanding our businesses, seeking operational efficiencies and delivering on our strategy to maximise the potential of Beximco Pharma."
Exchange rates of £1 = Taka 117.32 for 2020-21 numbers and £1 = Taka 111.93 for 2021-22 numbers have been used in this announcement.
