Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>The market’s reaction to WuXi AppTec's 23H1 report was positive due to some improvements in performance, but we don’t think WuXi AppTec has reversed its predicament completely if look closely.</li>
<li>We deep dive the challenges/risks in macro environment faced by US/Europe. The orders WuXi AppTec received from MNCs can’t guarantee future growth momentum if the US cannot achieve "soft landing".</li>
<li>We advise investors not to be blinded by the high growth of CXO in the past since the prosperity of CXO industry may face continuous downward pressure in the future.</li>

WuXi AppTec (2359.HK/603259.CH) 23H1 - Is It Time to Start Being Optimistic?

<ul>
<li>It seems that Mr Market was not satisfactory with WuXi AppTec’s 2022H1 performance. If excluding COVID-19 projects (which are regarded as a one-time increment), the performance growth was not high.</li>
<li>Considering that the CXO preliminary bid winning has declined largely in the US, domestic CXO would not begin to gradually reflect the slowdown of newly added orders until Q4.</li>
<li>We are concerned about WuXi AppTec's performance in 2023. As an old generation CXO, it's hard to achieve V-shaped rebound. So, 2022 is a good time to offload the Company.</li>
