- Shares are very overvalued at the moment and should be worth a mere fraction of its current trading value.

Pre-IPO Mirxes Holding (PHIP Updates) – Some Points Worth the Attention
- GASTROClear’s clinical application may be limited by doctors’ lack of sufficient trust/recognition. GASTROClear could mainly be commercialized in the non-clinical market in China first. However, the competition is more intense.
- The dual pressure of lack of medical insurance reimbursement and higher pricing may lead to lower-than-expected market penetration.It’s not easy for Mirxes’ revenue to return to the level of 2021.
- Short-Term valuation depends on market sentiment, but in long term, it still depends on the commercialization performance and the improvement of cash flow. The IPO pricing is expensive.
