Management Outlook

Solara Active Pharma Sciences is poised to capitalise on the expanding generic drug market with the anticipated genericisation of nearly 950 small molecule drugs between 2024 and 2026, indicating a robust market opportunity.
The company is expected to gain a competitive advantage as Chinese firms face increased production costs due to stringent environmental regulations and rising labour costs, enhancing Solara Active's market positioning.
Solara Active may seek to strategically navigate the highly fragmented API and CDMO sectors, leveraging potential consolidation opportunities to strengthen its market presence among many manufacturers.
With the surge in private equity interest and foreign investment in healthcare, Solara Active could pursue capital infusion to drive growth and innovation, particularly in high-value pharmaceutical manufacturing incentivised by government schemes like the PLI.
