Pre-IPO Jenscare Scientific - Difficult to Achieve Expected Commercialization Results

Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>Due to the centralized procurement in PRC market and decreasing volume of operations in overseas markets during pandemic, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/microport-scientific-corp" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:4487:1" rel="noopener">Microport Scientific (853 HK)</a>’s 2021 performance missed expectations. </li>
<li>Even if Microport could finally digest the negative impact of centralized procurement, its “unique” development mode would still put pressure and uncertainties on future performance/outlook, leading to lower-than-expected results.</li>
<li>Our earnings estimate of Microport in 2022 could be about HK$-1.7, and revenue estimate could be about HK$7.3 billion. It’s quite possible that the Company will not end up profitable.</li>

Thematic (Sector/Industry)

<ul>
<li>The key task of medical system reform in 2022 is to promote service price reform. There would be overall medical service price increase, but not all hospitals would be benefit.</li>
<li>The primary market financing of medical device CXO industry has become very hot in the past two years, but it could be challenging to form a complete industrial chain.</li>
<li>The lifting of lockdown in Shanghai/Beijing significantly reduces the pressure on supply chain and hospital operations. However, there would still be lockdown in places where positive cases are found. </li>
