Sawai Group Holdings (4887 JP): Continued Price Erosion Is Weakening Earnings Prowess
- Sawai Group Holdings (4887 JP) is negatively impacted by drug reimbursement pricing in Japan. H1FY23 revenue, operating profit, net profit decreased 1%, 36% y/y, and 29%, y/y, respectively.
- Generic pharmaceutical companies are more affected by the drug price revisions than their branded counterparts. In addition, APIs are impacted by increases in the cost of oil and exchange rates.
- The sustainability of the U.S. business rebound is still uncertain. We want to watch Sawai from sidelines and wait for full-year FY23 results, FY24 guidance, and NHI pricing decision.
