China Healthcare Weekly (May.18) – Trump to Lower US Drug Prices, Thoughts on Hengrui’s IPO Pricing
- Trump signed an executive order aimed at lowering prescription drug prices in the US, but the specific implementation may encounter obstacles. This is good news for China’s innovative drug assets.
- Under tariff/trade war, as long as the US does not issue any bill proposing to suspend the technology exchange, licensing-out business model of China biotech will not be substantially affected.
- Hengrui’s IPO in Hong Kong is not attractive from a fundamental perspective. However, the recent strong performance of Hengrui’s A-share has lifted investors’ sentiment, making them “interested” in this IPO.
