The decline in ASP and cost pressure make the recovery of gross margin uncertain in short term. Our forecast is revenue to up 20% YoY in 2025 to reach RMB2.6bn.
Valuation of Huaheng should be higher than Meihua, but could be lower than leading synthetic biology companies such as Cathay and Bloomage due to uncertainties on its future growth outlook.
