Aurobindo Pharma has said it would broaden product portfolio in the US while entering new markets in Europe as part of its growth strategy over the next 3-4 years.
In the US, it plans to broaden portfolio through accelerated growth in injectable, OTC and higher complexity products, Aurobindo said in an investor presentation.
On the other hand, in Europe, the company is planning to expand presence into new geographies such as Poland and Czech Republic besides enhancing its position in existing countries such as France, Germany, Netherlands, Spain and the UK.
In the US, where it is the sixth largest generic firm by volume, Aurobindo Pharma said it is looking at "broadening portfolio with more balance through accelerated growth in injectable, OTC, and higher complexity products".
Besides, it also plans to increase collaboration across the global customer base.
"Operational efficiencies and cost leadership in API and formulation manufacturing, supply chain planning and distribution", will be other key drivers for growth in next three to four years, it added.
Aurobindo said it has been following a strategy of a differentiated pipeline with new launches, including injectables, ophthalmics, speciality products and controlled substances in the US market.
Moreover, it has also expanded presence in dietary supplement business through Natrol, which it had acquired in 2014.
On Europe, Aurobindo said it is seeking to augment position through new product launches and extension to select Eastern Europe markets.
Going forward it plans to expand presence into new geographies such as Poland and the Czech Republic, according to the investor presentation.
The key markets for the company in Europe are France, Germany, Netherlands, Spain, UK, Portugal and Italy.
Lower generics penetration in Italy, Spain, Portugal and France offers future growth potential in next three to four years as the share of generics improves, it added.
The Hyderabad-based firm is also aiming for portfolio expansion through targeted Day 1 launches in segments such as orals, hormones and penems, oncology products, niche injectables and low volume injectables in the European market.
In its growth markets such as Ukraine, Mexico, Tanzania, Colombia, South Africa, Canada, Brazil and GCC Countries, the company is aiming to build branded generics presence in next three to four years, Aurobindo Pharma said.
It also seeks to enhance penetration in select markets through local manufacturing with plans to expand presence in oncology and speciality injectables segments, the presentation said.
