Aug 1 (Reuters) - Indian drugmaker GlaxoSmithKline Pharma GLAX.NS reported its first quarterly revenue decline in more than two years on Friday, leading to its shares declining the most in nearly four months.

The Indian unit of British drugmaker GSK Plc GSK.L reported a 2% decline in its revenue from operations to 8.05 billion rupees ($92 million)for the first quarter ended June 30.

GlaxoSmithKline Pharma said its performance during the quarter was "below anticipated levels," as it was hurt by "external factors such as seasonal disruptions".

The stock slumped 5.5% after results and was on track for its worst day since early April.

This is the company's first revenue drop since March 2023, when it grappled with lower prices of its key drugs due to the government's pricing cap.

Separately, in May, it had a temporary production disruption due to a fire at one of its contract manufacturing facilities, but did not disclose whether there was a financial impact from it.

Its quarterly profit climbed 12.5% on-year to 2.05 billion rupees as the company kept a tight lid on its expenses. Total expenses for the quarter dropped 5.2%.

Oct 15 (Reuters) - GlaxoSmithKline GLAX.NS sued Moderna MRNA.O in Delaware federal court on Tuesday for allegedly violating GSK's patent rights in messenger RNA (mRNA) technology with its blockbuster COVID-19 vaccine Spikevax.

The lawsuit said Moderna's lipid nanoparticles for transporting mRNA into the human body infringe several GSK patents covering similar innovations. GSK filed a related lawsuit against Pfizer and BioNTech in the same court in April over their COVID-19 vaccines.

BENGALURU, May 9 (Reuters) - Indian drugmaker Abbott India ABOT.NS reported a 24% rise in fourth-quarter profit on Thursday, as strong sales outpaced the impact of government pricing caps on certain medicines.

The company, which makes the popular antacid medicine Digene, said its profit rose to 2.87 billion rupees ($34.3 million) for the three months ended March 31, from 2.31 billion rupees a year earlier.

Revenues of drugmakers such as Abbott India and GlaxoSmithKline Pharma India GLAX.NS, which get most of their business from India, have been impacted after the inclusion of some of their drugs in the government's essential medicines list in September 2022, making them susceptible to price caps.

Abbott, which is a unit of U.S. healthcare firm Abbott Laboratories ABT.N, has been trying to mitigate the impact of pricing curbs by driving up sales and cutting back on expenses.

The company, which makes drugs including hypothyroidism treatment tablets Thyronorm, said its revenue from operations rose 7% to 14.39 billion rupees in the fourth quarter.

The company declared a dividend of 410 rupees per share for fiscal year 2024.

Adds response from BioNTech in paragraph 3

By Blake Brittain

April 25 (Reuters) - GlaxoSmithKline GLAX.NS sued Pfizer PFE.N and BioNTech 22UAy.DE in Delaware federal court on Thursday, accusing them of infringing GSK patents related to messenger RNA (mRNA) technology in the companies' blockbuster COVID-19 vaccines.

GSK said in the lawsuit that Pfizer and BioNTech's Comirnaty vaccines violate the company's patent rights in mRNA-vaccine innovations developed "more than a decade before" the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.

A Pfizer spokesperson said in a statement that the company is "confident in our IP position around Comirnaty" and intends to "vigorously defend" against GSK's claims. A BioNTech spokesperson declined to comment on the complaint.

A GSK spokesperson said the company believes its patents "provided the foundational technology used in Pfizer and BioNTech’s COVID-19 mRNA vaccines," and that it is "willing to license these patents on commercially reasonable terms and to ensure continued patient access" to the shots.

The lawsuit adds to a web of high-stakes U.S. court cases involving Pfizer, BioNTech and Moderna over patent royalties for technology used in their vaccines, including a case brought by Moderna against Pfizer in 2022.

Pfizer made $11.2 billion from sales of Comirnaty last year, while Moderna earned $6.7 billion in revenue from its vaccine Spikevax. Sales of both vaccines declined significantly last year from 2022.

London-based GSK asked the court for an unspecified amount of monetary damages from Pfizer and BioNTech that includes an ongoing patent-licensing fee.

GSK said in the complaint that its patents cover technology for transporting fragile mRNA into human cells that scientists began developing in 2008. GSK said it bought the rights to the inventions when it acquired part of Novartis' NOVN.S vaccines business in 2015.

GSK also sued Pfizer for patent infringement last year over technology used in Pfizer's respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine Abrysvo. Pfizer has denied GSK's claims in that case.

BENGALURU, Feb 12 (Reuters) - GlaxoSmithKline Pharmaceuticals GLAX.NS, the Indian unit of the UK's GSK GSK.L, reported a 3% fall in third-quarter profit on Monday, hurt by the government's pricing cap on certain medicines.

Consolidated profit before exceptional items and tax for the quarter ended Dec. 31 was 2.29 billion rupees ($27.6 million), compared with 2.36 billion rupees a year earlier.

GlaxoSmithKline, which derives most of its revenue from India, continued to grapple with challenges following the inclusion of its key products such as Ceftum antibiotic and T-Bact ointment in the country's National List of Essential Medicines (NLEM) in September 2022, mandating sales below a government-set price ceiling.

It's revenue declined for three straight quarters following the adoption of the list before rebounding on the growth in its vaccine business in the June quarter of last fiscal year.

Revenue from operations rose a meagre 0.4% to 8.05 billion rupees in the latest quarter.

The company, which makes Augmentin antibiotic, incurred a one-time charge of 1.63 billion rupees, related to the cost of a voluntary retirement scheme and other employee dues.

It also had a one-time charge of 113.7 million rupees in the year-ago period, due to restructuring costs.

Last month, parent GSK beat market estimates for its fourth-quarter results and provided an upbeat forecast for 2024 and beyond, citing the expansion of its vaccines and cancer drugs pipeline.

Earlier this month, rival Abbott India ABOT.NS reported a 26% jump in third-quarter profit on elevated sales.
