Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>Since Imbruvica's sales continued to decline and Calquence hadn’t shown much growth in US since 23Q2, either Zanubrutinib gained more market share or the entire BTK inhibitors market is shrinking. </li>
<li>BeiGene's recent sluggish share price could be related to geopolitical conflicts/weak market sentiment.However, innovative drugs don’t involve supply chain security issues. There’s no need for US to sanction China's biotech.</li>
<li>We are relatively optimistic about BeiGene's 23Q4 sales growth. In our view, BeiGene’s reasonable market value is at least about US$18 billion. <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/beigene-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:27352:1" rel="noopener">BeiGene (6160 HK)</a> is undervalued.   </li>
