GLP-1s are not flawless, and patients will lose not only fat but also muscle during weight-loss process. Then, another noteworthy opportunity has emerged - reduce fat and increase muscle.
In 2024, Sino Biopharm is expected to achieve single-digit revenue growth. Deficiencies in corporate governance are one reason why the market is reluctant to offer Sino Biopharm high valuation.

<ul>
<li>Benefiting from changes in pandemic prevention policies and favorable reimbursement policy support, TCM injections market would end its years of continuous decline and enter a period of rapid growth again.</li>
<li>After Novo Nordisk acquires Catalent, China CXOs would be less likely to obtain the global GLP-1 orders. As MNCs rethink supply chain issues, China CXOs would face more challenges.</li>
<li>Against the backdrop of anti-corruption/import substitution, investment logic of United Imaging is solid. However, the biggest issue is high valuation. Fundamentals're difficult to support more than RMB100 billion market value.</li>

China Shineway Pharmaceutical / Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>Shineway’s performance growth in 23Q1-Q3 slowed obviously. The big decrease in sales growth of injection products and TCM formula granule products would drag down the overall revenue growth in 23H2. </li>
<li>Due to TCM formula granules VBP, the 60%-75% gross profit margin level is hard to sustain. TCM formula granules business would enter an era of low profits but high sales.</li>
<li>Shineway’s cash balance is RMB5.4 billion, but market value is about RMB5.39 billion. So, Shineway is undervalued. The Company's two dividends next year could reach RMB50 cents per share.</li>
