<li>Speed is a crucial factor in the competition for drug development, but there’re precedents in history that late-comers are still able to turn things around, such as GLP-1/weight loss drugs.</li>
<li>We remain conservative about the future commercialization performance of Bio-Heart's BRS and Iberis 2nd. However, the product launch is a catalyst for share price, which provides a good short-term trade opportunity.</li>
