7 Aug 2026
Hyderabad, August 06, 2026: Sai Life Sciences Limited (BSE: 544306 I NSE: SAILIFE), one of India’s fastest growing Contract Research, Development and Manufacturing Organizations (CRDMO) announced its financial results for the first quarter ended 30 June 2026.
Commenting on the performance during the quarter, Mr. Krishna Kanumuri, Managing Director and CEO, Sai Life Sciences Limited, said, “We are pleased with the progress made during the quarter and the momentum we continue to see across the business. There is a clear evolution in what large pharmaceutical companies are looking for from their outsourcing partners. The expectation is for strong, scientifically led partners who can take greater ownership of integrated discovery and development programs, rather than simply execute individual pieces of work. We believe that the combination of our technology base, scientific talent and culture is a key reason why large pharmaceutical companies are increasingly bringing significant work to Sai through strategic engagements. These engagements will create a healthy and sustained pipeline over multiple years."
Mr. Siva Chittor, Chief Financial Officer, Sai Life Sciences Limited added, “We have begun FY27 on a healthy note, delivering revenue of ₹554 crore in Q1, up 12% year-on-year, with growth across both our CRO and CDMO businesses. CRO maintained strong momentum, growing 24% year-on-year, while our CMC pipeline continues to strengthen with 33 active commercial molecules and 14 late-phase molecules. Coupled with encouraging traction in our FTE-led engagement model, a healthy balance sheet and disciplined capital allocation, we remain confident in executing our long-term growth strategy.”
