What if smart money is discounting deteriorating fundamentals ahead of you?

The price falls first and the bad news usually comes much later.

Besides it isn't always clear whether the deterioration in fundamentals is temporary or permanent.
Markets could be discounting the future.

@markminervini has covered this in his wonderful book.

The price falls first and bad news often follows 2-3 quarters later or more and this is while fundamentals are still looking good.
Sometimes we should think of ourselves as part owners of a business.

At other times we should think #bhaavbhagwanche

Knowing which to use when is where the investor's acumen comes in.

Laurus Q4 concall (first hand notes)

CDMO / synthesis is crying but management says that they have delivered all what they had in hand and going forward also..
CDMO revenue can't be in linear growth scale & will be lumpy
CDMO : active projects are ~60

CDMO / BIO revenue contribution was ~20% in last FY & it can scale upto ~50% in 5 years

Margins will improve from current levels

no guidance on quarterly basis & we need to consider annual guidance only
Global fund ARV tender's shipment already started

Confidence is missing in body language as well

Tax rate will revert to normal levels of 25% from 29%

Earlier said that fy24 is consolidation but now for consolation ..says in concall that capex will help in second half

Laurus Labs was all set to deliver a bumper year. But currently the stock is down 57% from its all-time high. Let us take a look at some of the reasons for this decline.

#laurus #lauruslabs #pharma

The first reason is the reduction in their ARV business. While Laurus is trying to move away from their ARV business as it is a low margin business for the company, they are still very dependent on this segment.
The ARV segment (including API and FDF) contributed to 50% of their revenues in FY22 and about 35% in 9M FY23.

#Lauruslabs - its about operating leverage..

Below table compares data for last 8 qtrs. if one compares Mar'21, best Profit ever after which stock touched 700, and Dec'22, Gross profit has actually gone up, GM declined by 200 bps, but EBIDTA declined by 750 bps, 550 bps decline
is due to emp and other exp.

Dep and Int has eaten 300 bps from PBT

this is because of addition of 2000 crs gross block to existing 3000 crs gross block as on Mar'21. Sales hasn't grown in the same proportion.

If sales would be 2000, %EBIDTA would be 32% which will happen
as utilization of API and FDF block picks up. This will happen towards start of FY25. FY25 and FY26 will have the best operating leverage because then API contribution will reduce to 30% and FDF+CDMO will move to 70% improving gross margins back to 55-56%.

UNDERSTANDING MACD
Moving average convergence divergence (MACD) is a trend-following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of stock.
It is calculated by subtracting the 26-period exponential moving average (EMA) from the 12-period EMA.
2/n
The result of that calculation is the MACD line. A nine-day EMA of the MACD called the "signal line," is then plotted on top of the MACD line, which can function as a trigger for buy and sell signals.

-CDMO will be 25% of total sales by FY25..(My estimate is 10000 crs total sales in FY25, so 2500 crs from CDMO. If it gets 20x P/S,
30% PAT margins and 70x PE, that itself will be valued at 50,000 crs against total MCap of 25,000 today)
-Fermentation capacity target is 3 Mn lit in the future. Current capacity can have run rate of 40 crs per qtr
-Confident of $1 Bn sales in FY23 if approvals come on time
