What Cipla does
A short, human-reviewed summary of the business, written from public sources. Background, not analysis, and not updated intraday.
business summary

Best known globally not for a blockbuster drug but for a 2001 decision: offering an HIV/AIDS antiretroviral cocktail at about a dollar a day, which collapsed treatment costs from roughly 12,000 dollars a year and helped make AIDS treatment accessible across Africa. Today it leans heavily on a large respiratory and inhaler franchise, both in India and increasingly the US.

1
1Sector

Pharmaceuticals - Generics & Respiratory

2
2What it sells

Respiratory and inhalation therapies, branded and generic formulations, complex generics such as inhalers and peptide injectables, and active pharmaceutical ingredients.

3
3Who buys it

Patients via pharmacies and hospitals in India, South Africa, the US and other markets; historically also health programmes and NGOs distributing low-cost HIV medicines in the developing world.

4
4How it earns

Higher-margin branded sales in India fund investment into harder-to-copy complex generics for the US, particularly inhaled and injectable products. Profit depends on the timing of FDA approvals for these complex products and on respiratory product volumes in its home market.

Returns and valuation
Built from the company's own balance sheet and cash flow. Return on equity is the trailing twelve months of profit against the equity on the books; the balance sheet behind it is filed twice a year, not four times.

What it owns and what it owes
Straight from the balance sheet in the company's filing. Net debt is borrowings less cash and liquid investments, so a negative figure means it holds more cash than debt.

Companies file a balance sheet twice a year, not every quarter, so this is the most recent one published rather than the latest quarter.

The cash it actually made
Profit is an accounting figure; cash flow is what moved. Free cash flow is the cash from running the business less what was spent on plant and equipment, so it is what was left over to pay down debt or return to shareholders.

Median rather than average, so one loss-making or one very expensive peer cannot drag the reference. Valuation is shown without a colour verdict: a higher multiple can mean expensive, or faster growth expected, and only you can decide which.
