About UsLupin has one overarching objective that influences our decisions and actions. That goal is simply to be the best transnational pharmaceutical company in the world. We don¿t have to be the largest, just the best. Being the best has a variety of meanings to us. It means bringing value to our customers & ensuring sustainable shareholder returns. It also means a rigorous focus on quality in all its aspects, transparency in our dealings and fostering a culture of inclusiveness, mentorship and learning to make Lupin the best and most rewarding place to work in the industry.
In my review this year, I will not only dwell on the Company¿s performance but also talk about the ¿off balance sheet¿ indicators that are our hidden strengths. The momentum of over 20 quarters of successive, sustained growth is a reflection of Lupin¿s geographic focus, continued expansion of market share across our global footprint, our product offerings and rigorous attention to input costs in our search for ever better efficiencies. The Company had a strong year of financial performance and is geared to excel further in the years to come. All our business verticals delivered double-digit growth with particularly robust business performance being delivered by US & Europe, India, Japan and South Africa. I am pleased to report that Lupin remains amongst the fastest growing generic players in the U.S., India, Japan, South Africa and the Philippines. Continued investments in manufacturing, infrastructure and R&D and, more importantly, in human capital has resulted in us establishing a core of competitive advantage for the future. I believe that the sum of these parts means that we have established a culture of continuous enhancement of business quality and performance to ensure that Lupin will maintain its growth and profitability record over the long term. |
