<li>SK Bioscience announced an excellent IPO book building results on 8 March. The IPO price has been confirmed at 65,000 won per share, which is at the top of the IPO price range. At the IPO price of 65,000 won, the company's initial market cap will be 5.0 trillion won.</li>
<li>The total demand ratio of the SK Bioscience IPO was 1,275.5 to 1, which is very high. Of these institutional investors, 96.7% of them thought that the value of the company should be 65,000 won or more. Our base case valuation for the company is a market cap of 11.5 trillion won or <strong>149,000 won</strong> per share, which would represent a 129% upside from the IPO price of 65,000 won. </li>
<li>Despite the numerous positives about the SK Bioscience IPO, the biggest near-term and long-term problem of SK Bioscience is whether or not the COVID-19 vaccines of AstraZeneca, NovaVax, and other major global vaccine developers are safe or not.  Since 26 February (when COVID-19 vaccinations started in Korea), there have been <a href="https://blog.naver.com/jijisjungle/222264180891" target="_blank" rel="noopener">11 people</a> that have died in Korea after taking the AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccines (death rate of 0.003%). For now, the Korean authorities have ruled out any association that may link the deaths of these 11 people with the COVID-19 vaccines.</li>

The vaccine announcement by Pfizer Inc (PFE US) and Moderna Inc (MRNA US), 

the laggard Singapore equities market all of a sudden leaped to joy and pushed travel-related names up, playing catch up with the rest of the world.


Singapore Airlines (SIA SP) and SATS Ltd (SATS SP) are the go-to stock for Singapore’s reopening air travel that started with the travel bubble with Hong Kong and other low-risk countries to follow. Comfortdelgro Corp (CD SP)  is the key beneficiary to the reopening of the Singapore economy, through the switching of work-from-home to work-in-office (higher ridership in the MRTs and buses that contributes to 60% of the company’s revenues), and also from the reopening of the restaurants and malls that increases mobility in the country. The low or non-existent community COVID-19 cases also help to boost the confidence in Comfort Delgro.

Equity Bottom-Up

<p style="text-align: justify;">Previous week EU finally approved new contract with the German biotech company CureVac to purchase 225 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine and option to buy additional 180 million doses next year. CureVac plans to initiate global Phase 2b/3 clinical trials as soon as possible and is going to expand its manufacturing capacities to 300 million doses in 2021 and 600 million doses in 2022. New integrated European vaccine manufacturing network will be built in collaboration with several partners. We believe, that one of them is American EV and clean energy company Tesla, working with CureVac on vaccine RNA printer (version 3 is under development). We see further upside for CureVac shares and expect positive Phase 2a and Phase 2b/3 data of its vaccine candidate CVnCoV together with 90%+ efficacy and opportunity to sell ~100 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine for emergency use in the European Union this year.  </p>
