Fosun Pharma plans additional block sales in the coming months to strengthen its balance sheet, unless buyout firms present a compelling offer.
High valuation expectations from Fosun have reportedly hindered potential sales to private equity firms.
Fosun Pharma originally acquired a 74% stake in Gland Pharma in 2017 for about $1.1 billion from a group including KKR & Co.
Over the past year, Gland Pharma’s shares have risen by 82%, despite being over 55% lower than their 2021 peak.
This block sale marks the second major reduction in Fosun Pharma's stake in Gland Pharma following a successful IPO in November 2020, which raised ₹6,479 crore, including an offer for sale worth ₹5,229 crore by Fosun.
The IPO decreased Fosun’s holding from 75% to 58.36%. As of a recent BSE filing, Fosun Pharma’s stake stood at 57.86%.
