Genor Biopharma Holdings  / Equity Bottom-Up

<a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/jhbp-cy-holdings-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:29201:1" rel="noopener">JHBP (Genor) (6998 HK)</a> is a biopharmaceutical company that focuses on the R&amp;D and commercialization of oncology and autoimmune drugs, with a number of products in the late stage of clinical development and close to commercialization. Perhaps because of such characteristics, Genor is favored by reputable investment institutions such as Hillhouse Capital, Temasek, etc.. However, the stock price of Genor reached its peak when it was listed. It only rose in the first two days and then fell all the way. By March 9th, 2021, the closing price of Genor was HK$16.74/share, which was about 50% lower than the peak of HK$32.2/share at the beginning of listing. So, why is that?

It is worth mentioning that, before the IPO, Lee's Pharmaceuticals holds 34.1% shares in Zhaoke, and Zhaoke is the affiliated company of the group. After the spin-off and listing, Lee's Pharmaceuticals would no longer be Zhaoke's controlling shareholder, but would still be its single largest shareholder. Meanwhile, at present, there are some good listed companies in the ophthalmology industry in the secondary capital market, such as <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/chengdu-kanghong-pharmaceu-a" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:24723:1" rel="noopener">Chengdu Kanghong Pharmaceu-A (002773 CH)</a> and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/shenyang-xingqi-pharmaceut-a" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:29617:1" rel="noopener">Shenyang Xingqi Pharmaceut-A (300573 CH)</a>.
