From Shanghai NewMed Medical (NMM HK)’s pipeline, it can be seen that almost all the candidates do not have obvious advantages in development progress in front of the competing products.
NewMed has little experience in launching and commercializing product candidates, especially as a late-comer. So, the actual commercialization performance could be lower than expected.
Since there are so many uncertainties as well as the poor market sentiment for new IPOs in HKEX, we are conservative about the outlook of NewMed at the current stage.

Venus MedTech (2500 HK) is taking the lead in TAVR industry, but Peijia Medical (9996 HK) has advantages in development progress of future products. So, the market pattern is not yet determined.
The high cost of TAVR surgery is the main reason for lower-than-expected sales performance of related companies and low market penetration. The fierce competition would also bring more challenges. 
A good solution is to enter developing markets with CE mark, which would offer a new commercialization option and also a wider expansion beyond just European and American markets.

Broncus raised HKD 1,552 million (USD 199m) from its global offering and will list on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on Friday, September 23rd.
In our previous note, we discussed that the company's core product, InterVapor, is a minimally invasive surgery that uses heated water vapor to treat the chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In addition to the COPD indication, the company plans to further develop the product for the treatment of lung cancer. Another core product, RF-II uses radio frequency to treat lung cancer. Besides InterVapor and RF-II, the company also has a commercialized lung navigation system which has a leading market share in China. However, we believe the market for the lung navigation system is still in the early stage of development in China and hence the small market size.  We think the company has a strong pre-IPO investor line-up with backing from the founder of VenusMedtech and its management team is experienced. We also provided our thoughts on valuation of Broncus.
In this note, we look at the updates since our last note. We re-iterate our view that the company is fairly valued at the top end and will stay away from the company.
