Shanghai Junshi Bioscience Co. Ltd. (1877 HK) announced that it has terminated its PD-1 commercialization partnership with AstraZeneca. Lower-than-expected sales performance is seen as the key reason.
Junshi's commercialization team is the weakest among the domestic Top Four.As the FDA's attitude may have changed, the logic of exporting innovative domestic drugs to foreign markets could be shaken.
Given the poor financing environment,it's challenging for Junshi to afford large investment in R&amp;D and licensing deals by just relying on cash in hand and cashflow generating from commercialized products.


Shanghai Junshi Bioscience (1877.HK/688180.CH) - Behind the “break Up” with AstraZeneca

Last month, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/shanghai-junshi-bioscience-a" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:31070:1" rel="noopener">Shanghai Junshi Bioscience (688180 CH)</a> released the performance announcement in 2020. Junshi is expected to achieve the revenue in 2020 of RMB1.595 billion, up 105.77% YoY. The Company's net loss attributed to shareholders could reach RMB1.672 billion, up 123.8% YoY. Meanwhile, the R&amp;D expenses are expected to reach RMB1.824 billion in 2020, up 92.79% YoY, which even exceeded the total revenue in 2020. It is also worth mentioning that the moment of glory of Junshi seems to be when it was listed on the SSE STAR Market in July 2020, with the market value of about RMB150 billion, and then its share price went all the way down to hit the bottom in December 2020 at RMB 64.8/share. On March 19, 2021, Junshi’s market value was RMB79 billion, down about 50% since July 2020. So could Junshi turn things around?
