<li>We continue to view JUNSHI’s Phase III pipeline, consisting of Senaparib (JS109/IMP4297)(PARP), Ongericimab (JS002)(PCSK9), Bevacizumab (biosimilar) and VV116 (COVID)(RdRp) as unexciting; </li>
<li>Phase I/II drug Tifcemalimab (TAB004/JS004)(BTLA mAb) is interesting, but may not last to reach product sales;</li>
<li>We acknowledge the bad news has already been priced in and raise the TP to HK$21, but JUNSHI still has unfavourable risk reward profile in our opinion.</li>

<li>The biggest characteristic of <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/innovent-biologics-inc" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:27452:1" rel="noopener">Innovent Biologics Inc (1801 HK)</a> is its strong ability of resources integration. Besides, when it comes to execution, clinical efficiency and R&amp;D productivity, Innovent deserves credit.</li>
<li>If having 10 big commercialized drugs are the threshold for becoming a biopharma, Innovent's upgrade from biotech to biopharma is almost complete. </li>
<li>Innovent has enough cash flow over the next few years to support development, and may even turn losses into profits. So, we think that Innovent could get through “this winter”. </li>
