<li>Porton’s performance declined significantly in 23H1 compared with high base last year, because most of Pfizer’s COVID-19 big orders have been completed. Porton's performance in 2023 would be under pressure.</li>
<li>Porton isn’t a first-tier CXO and lags behind industry leaders in terms of new businesses (CGT/ADC CXO). Valuation of entire CXO sector and Porton hasn’t yet reached an inflection point.</li>
<li>Market's expectation for CXO would decrease and then bottom out in 2023H2. Whether CXO's performance would rebound in 2024 still needs to wait for the turnaround in macro environment.</li>
