<p>Eddingpharm is a China-based pharmaceutical company that has filed an Application Proof to list on the HKEX. The product line consist of older drugs with varying degrees of exposure to the government's VBP/GQCE program.

We think the overarching issue for the shares will be whether enthusiasm for the pipeline can offset the VBP-related overhang. </p>
