For the Quarter Ending December 2022
North America
As per the data, Lisinopril prices across the United States market dropped around 3.6% during the fourth quarter of 2022 due to bearish demand from end-user pharmaceutical and healthcare industries coupled with adequate product availability among domestic retailers.
The reason behind the accumulation was that domestic merchants had excessive imports from Asia as they had placed their orders in advance. In order to increase the inquiries from the end user sector and to clear their existing stockpiles, suppliers gradually reduced their quotations. All these factors combinedly resulted in a declining price trend in the US domestic market and with prices settled at around USD 319500/MT by the end of the quarter.
Asia- Pacific
In the fourth quarter of 2022, the price trend for Lisinopril in the Asia Pacific market fluctuated. The market opened in October with bearish sentiments but enhanced in November, with prices settling at USD 297800/MT. The market supply side faced great uncertainty in the H1 of Q4, mainly due to the halt in production activities amid the Golden week holiday and Covid-19 restrictions. These factors caused an escalation in the prices of Lisinopril in November. Later, the upward trend declined in the last weeks of the quarter, with prices assembling at USD 289700/MT. Despite the ease in China's zero-COVID strategy in early December, the demand for Lisinopril was not improved throughout the month. Also, the trading activities were muted due to low inquiries from overseas buyers ahead of the year-end holidays.
Europe
During Q4 of 2022, the prices of Lisinopril resembled the trend of the Asia-Pacific region. The price of Lisinopril first decreased by 1.3% in October but later increased significantly by 2% in November, with values settling at USD 344200 /MT. In October, the lack of inquiries from the downstream pharmaceutical sector dampened the market sentiments for Lisinopril in the German domestic market. However, in the mid-quarter, the increment in Lisinopril prices was driven by low supply from Asian countries. Moreover, rising concerns about the economy and the high inflation rate in Europe impact the overall price of the product. Therefore, by the termination of Q4, the dynamics of the Lisinopril market were again suppressed as purchasing activities across the German domestic market dropped, with prices evaluated at USD 338750/MT.
