Dr Reddy's stock: CLSA, Jefferies recommend sell, Morgan Stanley says hold — here's why

By Arunika Jain Published on July 24, 2025, 08:40 IST Top brokerages have delivered a mixed outlook on Dr. Reddy's Laboratories following its Q1FY26 results. While Jefferies and CLSA retained their Underperform ratings citing concerns over U.S. business momentum and gRevlimid tapering, Morgan Stanley maintained an Equal-Weight stance with a ₹1,298 target. CLSA: Cautious on U.S. growth taper CLSA kept an Underperform rating with a target of ₹1,120, saying Q1 earnings were in line with estimates. However, it expects the U.S. base business to be flat or grow at low single digits, and noted that gRevlimid sales could start tapering from Q3FY26. The potential launch of Semaglutide in Canada and India may partly offset this slowdown, CLSA added. Jefferies: Q1 miss, watching key launches Jefferies also retained an Underperform rating with a lower target of ₹1,100, citing a Q1 miss due to a decline in U.S. sales, particularly gRevlimid and the base business. SG&A and R&D expenses stayed elevated. However, Jefferies is watching two key pipeline catalysts: the approval of gOzempic in Canada and U.S. filing for Abatacept, which it believes could meaningfully contribute to revenue if launched on time. Morgan Stanley: Balanced view Morgan Stanley took a more neutral stance with an Equal-Weight rating and a target price of ₹1,298. It noted that Q1 revenue grew 11% YoY, but gross margins declined due to higher price erosion and lower operating leverage. EBITDA was in line, while PAT rose 2% YoY. Morgan Stanley believes the risk-reward remains balanced. Disclaimer: The brokerage views expressed above are solely those of the respective firms. This article does not constitute investment advice.

Dr Reddy's share: Jefferies sees 12% downside after Q1 miss, cuts target to Rs 1,100

By News Desk Published on July 24, 2025, 08:35 IST Jefferies has maintained its Underperform rating on Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, lowering expectations with a target price of ₹1,100 per share. This implies a 12% downside from the current market price of ₹1,248.00. The brokerage flagged that Q1FY26 earnings missed estimates, primarily due to lower US sales, which were impacted by a sequential decline in both the gRevlimid contribution and the base business. In contrast, performance in other markets was largely in line with expectations. Jefferies also noted that SG&A expenses and R&D investments remained elevated during the quarter, weighing on profitability. Looking ahead, the brokerage is closely watching two pipeline triggers: Approval of gOzempic in Canada U.S. filing for Abatacept Jefferies has built in a timely launch and meaningful sales contribution from both products into its base case but remains cautious due to the near-term headwinds.

Abatacept Beats HCQ in Halting RA in Palindromic Rheumatism

TOPLINE: Abatacept outperformed hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) in preventing patients with palindromic rheumatism (PR) from progressing to rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODOLOGY: Researchers randomly assigned 70 individuals with PR who were seropositive for rheumatoid factor or anti-citrullinated protein antibodies in a 1:1 ratio to receive open-label abatacept (ABA) at 125 mg/week or HCQ at 5 mg/kg/day for 1 year. All patients had symptom durations of over 3 months but under 3 years and were not taking any disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs or glucocorticoids. Patients were followed for an additional year to track RA development. TAKEAWAY: At month 24, three patients (8.8%) in the ABA group progressed to RA compared with 10 patients (27.8%) in the HCQ group (P = .047). Patients treated with HCQ who developed RA generally progressed in the first 12 months of the trial, whereas patients treated with ABA who developed RA did so at the end of the second year. The ABA group also had higher persistent remission rates of PR than the HCQ group (55.9% vs 22.9%). Serious adverse events were uncommon in both treatment groups. IN PRACTICE: 'In patients with recent-onset seropositive palindromic rheumatism, abatacept significantly decreased the rate of RA progression in comparison with hydroxychloroquine at 2 years follow-up,' said study author Raimon Sanmarti, MD, PhD, of the Hospital Clínic de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain. 'Abatacept is also more efficacious than hydroxychloroquine in the control of symptoms of seropositive palindromic rheumatism.' SOURCE: Sanmarti presented the study in an oral abstract session at the European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) 2025 Annual Meeting. LIMITATIONS: This was an open-label study with a relatively small sample of patients. Over the 2-year trial, eight patients in the HCQ group and five patients in the ABA group exited the trial or were lost to follow-up. DISCLOSURES: The Fundació Clínic per a la Recerca Biomèdica sponsored the study. Sanmarti disclosed financial relationships with Bristol Myers Squibb, AbbVie, MSD, Roche, UCB, Pfizer, Eli Lilly, Gebro, Janssen, Sanofi, Gilead, and Adacyte.
