The state has issued clear policies to support gene therapy and related products. Therefore, investors are advised to pay close attention to related companies.
It may not be that easy to forget last Monday's plunge in the healthcare sector in HKEX, which means one thing.
With the introduction of intensive policies, TCM injections will be subject to more and more restrictions.

IPOs and Placements coverage across Asia Pacific

Aequitas Research

We cover all listing across the Asia Pacific along with follow-up placements. As of Dec 2020, our team had covered 539 IPOs with a hit rate of 73.5% and 685 placements with a hit rate of 66.8%.

We combine fundamental bottom-up views with our proprietary quantitative framework to provide a holistic coverage across new listings and placements. Our coverage includes pre-IPO notes before the deal is launched, follow-up analysis once the deal is live and post-listing trading analysis as well.

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.
