What Repligen does

Sells bioprocessing tools and consumables (filtration, chromatography) used to manufacture biologic drugs.

Sells consumables and equipment that customers reorder every time they make a batch of a drug, so revenue rises when a drug that specifies its parts reaches higher volumes. Growth has come largely through buying other makers of filtration and chromatography components.

Products and services

  • Chromatography resins/systems
  • Filtration (tangential flow, depth)
  • Cell-culture media
  • Process analytics

Customers

  • Biopharma manufacturers
  • Contract manufacturing organizations (CDMOs)

Where it sits in the supply chain

  • Life sciences tools
  • Bioprocessing equipment/consumables
  • Biologics manufacturing supply chain

What could go right

  • Growth in biologics/cell-and-gene-therapy manufacturing demand
  • Share gains in single-use bioprocessing

What could go wrong

  • Biopharma capex cyclicality/destocking
  • Customer concentration among a few large CDMOs/biotechs

Moat: narrow (switching costs, process know-how, customer qualification). Once qualified into a customer's biologics manufacturing process, switching suppliers requires costly re-validation.

How these numbers are made. Returns are close-to-close in local currency. Revenue growth and margins are trailing twelve months. Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
