Pre-IPO Bio-Thera Solutions - Insights on Pipeline and the Competitive Landscape

Cherrystone Hill Research

Eddingpharm is a China-based pharmaceutical company that has filed an Application Proof to list on the HKEX. The product line consist of older drugs with varying degrees of exposure to the government's VBP/GQCE program. The development pipeline has two intriguing candidates that should come to market in 2022. We think the overarching issue for the shares will be whether enthusiasm for the pipeline can offset the VBP-related overhang. 
This Insight addresses the company's products and market opportunity, and leave other topics to a future Insight. Our Bullish tag is a placeholder until we get closer to an offering.
