Glenmark Pharmaceuticals has released its Q1 FY25-26 financial results, and the numbers reflect a mixed performance. While profitability remained stable and the India business delivered healthy growth, challenges in Europe and Emerging Markets pulled overall momentum down. Here’s a detailed breakdown for investors.
📊 Key Financial Highlights – Q1 FY25-26
- Revenue: ₹32,644 crore, a marginal increase of 0.6% year-on-year.
- Gross Margin: Improved to 68.9% from 65.8% last year, reflecting better product mix and cost controls.
- EBITDA: ₹5,805 crore, down slightly by 1.3% YoY. EBITDA margin stood at 17.8%.
- Adjusted PAT: ₹3,129 crore vs ₹3,402 crore last year, broadly stable.
- Reported PAT: ₹470 crore (sharply lower due to a one-time US litigation settlement loss of ₹3,232 crore).
👉 On an adjusted basis, profits remain steady, but reported numbers look weak because of exceptional items.

🏆 Final View for Investors
Glenmark Pharma’s Q1 results highlight a resilient core business despite global headwinds. Adjusted profits are stable, margins are healthy, and the company continues to strengthen its presence in India with oncology and consumer launches. The AbbVie partnership is a big positive for long-term growth.
However, muted topline growth, litigation-related costs, and regional weaknesses remain concerns. For long-term investors, Glenmark still holds potential, especially with its robust specialty and innovation pipeline. Short-term volatility may persist until stronger growth momentum is visible in Europe and Emerging Markets.
