Zhangzhou Pientzehuang Pharmaceutical (600436.CH) – Disappointing Performance Is Just the Beginning

By Xinyao (Criss) Wang

  • Zhangzhou Pientzehuang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (600436 CH)’s 22Q3 performance was disappointing because its strategy of “stabilizing” performance growth by raising prices has been ineffective.
  • Endogenous growth problem would finally be reflected in the decline of company’s valuation. We recommend to think about long-term logic from a broader perspective,not simply tracking performance of individual companies.
  • Pien Tze Huang’s valuation still has a lot of downward space. When the bubble bursts or its valuation is lower than Kweichow Moutai, it’s time to go long again.
