Jiangsu Hengrui Pharma A/H Listing – Low-End Is Probably Close to Fair Value
- Jiangsu Hengrui Medicine (600276 CH), a China-based pharmaceutical company, aims to raise around US$1.3bn in its H-share listing.
- JHP Has been ranked as one of the global Top 50 pharmaceutical companies by Pharm Exec for six consecutive years since 2019.
- We have looked at the company’s past performance and other deal dynamics in our previous note. In this note, we talk about the IPO pricing.
Mayne Pharma (MYX AU): The Scheme Booklet Should Calm Nerves
- Mayne Pharma (MYX AU) has released its scheme booklet regarding Cosette’s A$7.40 offer. The IE opines that the offer is fair and reasonable within its A$6.61-A$7.99 valuation range.
- The high spread reflects concerns that recent events would trigger the MAC clause. Thankfully, the scheme booklet does not indicate that Cosette is contesting it.
- Recent events should help quell retail opposition to the offer. At the last close and for a 2 July payment, the gross/annualised spread is 19.4%/262%.
Jiangsu Hengrui Pharma H Share Listing (1276 HK): Valuation Insights
- Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals (1276 HK) has launched its H Share listing at HK$41.45 to HK$44.05 per H Share. Pricing will be on 21 May.
- I discussed the H Share listing in Jiangsu Hengrui Pharma H Share Listing: The Investment Case.
- The proposed AH discount can be argued as either light or attractive. I lean toward the latter and would participate in the H Share listing.
Mayne Pharma (MYX AU): Scheme Booklet Dispatch Lends More Than A Veneer Of Support
- After a rough week – somewhat of an understatement – the Scheme Doc is now out.
- The Court Meeting is the18th June; the last day of trading the 23rd June, and implementation 2nd July. The IE says fair with a valuation range of A$6.61-A$7.99/share.
- This IE’s valuation range doesn’t factor in the pharma EO, given its ambiguity. Nor the FDA level. However, Mayne, ASIC AND Cosette have effectively signed off on the Doc’s veracity.
