Shanghai Pharmaceuticals / Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>The majority revenue of Shanghai Pharmaceuticals comes from pharmaceutical distribution business, but the pharmaceutical manufacturing business has much higher gross margin,which drives up the overall profit margin of the Company.</li>
<li>Due to VBP, profit margin is under pressure. Weak demand for COVID-19 vaccines, decreasing long-term profitability and concerns on synergistic effect of cooperation with Yunnan Baiyao cast doubt on outlook.</li>
<li>Compared with peers, the valuation of Shanghai Pharmaceuticals doesn’t show decent upside potential. High valuation expectations cannot be supported due to industry trend. Its share prices could underperform.</li>

Shanghai Pharmaceuticals (2607.HK)- Low Profitability Is Big Problem; Share Price Would Underperform

<ul>
<li>If excluding the contribution from COVID-19 related products, Pfizer’s performance growth could have been quite pessimistic. In terms of BD, Pfizer is “a big buyer” but the return is questionable. </li>
<li>We haven't seen any blockbuster new products in Pfizer’s pipeline that can make up for the losses caused by VBP/NRDL negotiation in China. Price reduction seems the only way out.</li>
<li>We cannot rule out that Pfizer may lose the China market in the event of further deterioration of Sino-US relations. This is a problem investors need to consider in advance.</li>

<li>The fake news about China reopen and the COVID-19 vaccine business are the major driving force for the rally of CanSino’s share price. However, such rally would not last long.</li>
<li>CanSino didn’t perform well in Q3 and 2022 would be a difficult year for CanSino. The major turning point of CanSino performance still lies in MCV4, not COVID-19 vaccines. </li>
<li>CanSino's H-share valuation has become more reasonable,but the downside risk in HKEX is hard to predict. Investors could consider offload and secure the gains. There’s better opportunity to long ahead.</li>

<ul>
<li>Due to the lack of competitiveness, Zhifei’s self-developed products cannot contribute solid performance to make up for the shrinking revenue of HPV vaccines when more competing products gradually launched.</li>
<li>The real potential of HPV vaccine market in China is not as big as imagined. So, the companies involved have the problem of inflated market values.</li>
<li>Due to low demand of COVID-19 vaccine/negative impact of pandemic on HPV vaccination, Zhifei's revenue YoY growth could be 10%-20%; Net profit YoY growth could be negative in 2022.</li>
