Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>Arrial's positioning at high-end private dental chain indicates limited growth space. The large investment in dental professionals drags down overall margins but fails to generate good word-of-mouth and expected returns.</li>
<li>Public hospitals with NRDL reimbursement and private dental chains with high cost performance would put more pressure on Arrail. Increasing marketing/promotion expenses cannot turn things around but further reduce margins.</li>
<li>Overall, the high-end strategy cannot bring high-end returns. We are not optimistic about Arrail's prospects and profitability. The Company may even keep losing money and hard to turn profitable.</li>
