Nuvama Reiterates Buy on Divi’s Labs on Orforglipron Supply Opportunity

An oral GLP‑1 launch would broaden access versus injectables, lifting demand for contract suppliers.

Overview

  • Nuvama maintained a Buy rating on Divi’s Laboratories with a target price of Rs 7,110, implying roughly 15% upside.
  • Analysts say Divi is working on two to three ingredients for Eli Lilly’s oral GLP‑1 candidate Orforglipron, with initial capacity already in place.
  • Orforglipron delivered positive Phase III results and Eli Lilly is preparing regulatory submissions with approval targeted around 2026.
  • Nuvama estimates about $60 million in revenue at current capacity for Divi, with potential to scale to $200–300 million at peak, though timing and size remain uncertain.
  • The brokerage cites industry expectations for Orforglipron peak sales of $15–40 billion and a corresponding CMO opportunity of roughly $500 million–$1.5 billion, while Business Today reports Lilly has built a $550 million pre‑launch inventory.
