<li>Increasing revenue without increasing profits is “a big denial” of a company's business model. Unless Zai Lab significantly reduces costs and maintains revenue high growth, its investment value is low.</li>
<li>Junshi's 2024 revenue is likely to return to over RMB1.5 billion due to market share expansion in PD-1. Strict cost control will be the main theme for the future.</li>
<li>If PAGD’s share price is higher than HK$6.12, there would be arbitrage opportunity. If Ping An hopes other shareholders to choose cash dividend, future stock price may fall below HK$6.12.</li>
