Porton Pharma Solutions / Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>Porton made a successful turnaround and the CGT business layout is also in the right direction. The US$217 million new order would improve the certainties of its 2022 performance.</li>
<li>The concerns on potential deterioration of international relations and the broken logic in CXO sector also apply to <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/porton-pharma-solutions-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:14201:1" rel="noopener">Porton Pharma Solutions (300363 CH)</a>, which should be aware of by investors.</li>
<li>So, there is a long way to go for Porton to truly get into the first tier. It may not be a good buying point currently considering the high valuation.</li>

Thematic (Sector/Industry)

<ul>
<li>For Pfizer,orders on COVID-19 vaccine and Paxlovid would generate over US$50 billion revenue in 2022. So whether Pfizer would pursue for new M&amp;A opportunities become the focus of the market.</li>
<li>The oral COVID-19 antivirals are a great opportunity for the development of Chinese API companies, improving the overall valuation. However, CXOs are actually the first to benefit from this market.</li>
<li>If the COVID mutates in a more transmissible direction, the valuation and forecast of related companies in this industrial chain needs readjustment.However, if it doesn’t, the logic would change again.</li>
