Major Indian generic-drug maker selling generics, APIs and biosimilars across the US, Europe, Russia/CIS and India.
North America, mainly generics sold to wholesalers, pharmacy chains and purchasing groups, is the largest region, and profit swings come from a few limited-competition generic launches, since prices on older products fall as competitors enter. Active ingredients sold to other drugmakers add a smaller line. The Reddy family and associates are the promoters.
In one line: India's Teva Pharmaceutical.
Moat: narrow (scale, regulatory licence, distribution). Large vertically integrated API-to-formulation manufacturing and broad regulatory filings.
Headquarters: Hyderabad, India · Founded: 1984 · Employees: 27,527
