Antique cuts target on Shilpa Medicare to Rs 1,090, retains ‘Buy' on long-term monetization potential
Antique Broking has maintained a Buy rating on Shilpa Medicare (SLPA) while cutting the target price to ₹1,090 from ₹1,525, citing strong revenue growth in Q4FY25 but tempered expectations for the near term due to regulatory delays and cost pressures.
Shilpa Medicare reported a 13% year-on-year increase in Q4FY25 revenue to ₹3,308 million, driven by an impressive 73% growth in the Finished Dosage Form (FDF) segment.
The brokerage highlighted SLPA's exclusive licensing deal with Orion for recombinant human albumin in Europe, which holds significant commercial potential. Milestone-linked payments under this agreement are expected to begin in FY26.
However, the firm flagged approval delays for Unicycive's NDA for Oxylanthanum Carbonate (OLC), a partnered product. The delay, caused by manufacturing issues, is expected to push associated revenues to FY27.
Antique has cut its FY26/27 revenue estimates by 16%/20%, moderating its assumptions for growth in the API business and adjusting expectations for 505(b)(2) opportunities. It also lowered EBITDA margin assumptions to reflect persistent higher operating expenses.
Despite these adjustments, the brokerage continues to see strong monetization potential in SLPA's product pipeline, positioning it well for medium to long-term growth.

Mark Zuckerberg just had a $20 billion week, with Meta's earnings beat sending his net worth soaring to new heights
Mark Zuckerberg has a lot of reasons to celebrate this week — more than 20 billion, actually. The Meta CEO saw his net worth jump $26.8 billion on Thursday, following a strong quarterly earnings report. Meta's stock reached record heights after the double beat. The Meta CEO saw his net worth surge to a record high following blockbuster Meta earnings on Wednesday. Zuckerberg's net worth is $271 billion as of Thursday, up $26.8 billion from the day prior, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. He joined the $200 billion club in September and is currently the third-richest person in the world, according to Bloomberg's index, behind Tesla CEO Elon Musk and Oracle founder Larry Ellison. Meta's shares were up more than 12% in after-hours trading during the company's second-quarter earnings call on Wednesday, hitting an all-time high of $780. This was after Meta beat estimates on revenue and earnings per share. The earnings call was heavily focused on the company's AI ambitions. Zuckerberg shared his vision of building "personal superintelligence" for everyone, which he'd outlined in a letter posted hours before the earnings call. On the call, he talked about Meta's multibillion-dollar hiring spree to build out its nascent Superintelligence Labs team, saying "small talent-dense teams" are the "optimal configuration for driving frontier research" in AI. He also praised glasses as "the ideal form factor for AI" and went so far as to say it'd be a " significant cognitive disadvantage" not to wear AI-enabled glasses in the future. The company sells Meta Ray-Ban glasses and unveiled Oakley Meta eyewear in June. It also showed off a prototype of its augmented reality Orion glasses in September. When asked if Meta would continue open-sourcing on AI, Zuckerberg said the company likely would, but some considerations might change that.

So we kind of wrestle with whether it's productive or helpful to share that, or if that's really just primarily helping competitors or something like that," he said.
