Pre-IPO LongBio Pharma (Suzhou) – Thoughts on The Pipeline and The Commercialization Outlook

By Xinyao (Criss) Wang

  • LP-003’s indications are small if compared with big indications in autoimmune diseases.So, LP-003 needs to demonstrate excellent efficacy. Otherwise, it would face fierce competition from Xolair/biosimilars, leaving limited market space.
  • The core advantage of LP-005 is that multi-target complement inhibitor has superior efficacy potential compared to single-target ones. The downside is the concerns on safety profile and slow R&D progress.
  • Post-Money valuation of LongBio Pharma reached about RMB2 billion after Series C Financing. A comfortable valuation range could be RMB3-5 billion, or about 50%-150% upside from Series C Financing.

Pre-IPO Eastroc Beverage Group – The Outlook Is Not Optimistic, with More Valuation Decline Ahead

By Xinyao (Criss) Wang

  • Based on 25Q3 results, the biggest problem lies in the continuous slowdown of its core business (energy beverages), which has led to the overall performance slightly falling short of expectations.
  • The upper limit of Eastroc Super Drink could be around RMB23-27 billion. Since energy beverages’ annual revenue has approached RMB16 billion, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to achieve the remaining growth.
  • The future growth of Eastroc may not support the current valuation. A more comfortable valuation range could be P/E of 20-25x, which will provide investors with sufficient margin of safety.

Emmvee IPO: Issue Fairly Priced, Capacity Addition & Future Integration Holds Energy For Future

By Tina Banerjee

  • Emmvee Photovoltaic has filed RHP for IPO with a total offer size of up to INR 29B, offering 133.6M shares at a price band of INR 206-INR 221 per share.
  • This includes a fresh issue of INR 21.4B (~ 98.8M shares). The company intends to use the proceeds for debt repayment and general corporate purpose.
  • Our recommendation would be that investors can buy into this issue as the valuation range looks relatively cheap when compared to peers.
