In addition to the share swap, Biocon is raising additional capital through a QIP of up to Rs 45 billion, subject to shareholder approval, for the cash component payable to Viatris. The deal will eliminate the minority interest as Biocon Biologics will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Biocon. However, the addition of equity shares would result in EPS dilution. Accordingly, Motilal Oswal trims its earnings estimates by 9%/8% for FY27/FY28. The brokerage values Biocon on SOTP basis (22x 12M fwd EV/Ebitda for biologics business, 53% stake in Syngene, and 10x EV/Ebitda for generics business) to arrive at a target price of Rs 460.
