Pre-IPO Herbs Generation Group Holdings (PHIP Updates) - Some Points Worth the Attention

<ul>
<li>Herbs Generation's performance growth momentum is strong, with growth rate of net profit higher than that of revenue. However, net profit margin is not high due to high SG&amp;A expenses. </li>
<li>Due to small market size in Hong Kong, growth ceiling of Herbs Generation is obvious. It’s quite challenging to seize market share from top ranking providers due to fierce competition.</li>
<li>We’re concerned that future revenue could decline to single-digit growth, as the effectiveness of continuing to invest in marketing/promotion will diminish. Valuation of Herbs Generation should be lower than peers.</li>
