Shanghai HeartCare Medical IPO: Valuation Insights

<p>Shanghai HeartCare is a neuro-interventional medical device pioneer in China. It has four products approved for marketing and expects 9 products to commercialize in 2021, as well 10 products to commercialize between 2022 and 2025. The company launched book building to raise up to USD 145m via a Hong Kong listing.</p><p>In our previous note, we looked at the company's two core products Captor and LAA Occluder. We think the Captor, a stent retrieving thrombectomy device, is the main selling point of the deal given its decent efficacy and safety data and it has already been approved by the NMPA. Market structure for Captor is characterized by the early stage of growth and dominance by MNC players and the company's product is the first approved domestic product with commendable data from head-to-head clinical trials. The company's management are mainly ex-employee from Microport Scientific, a leading international medical device player in China.</p><p>In this note, we provide an update for the book building. We think the upside is substantial barring negative outcomes from the legal proceedings with Medtronic.</p>
