Sonoscape Medical Corp / Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>We are optimistic about Sonoscape's 2022 annual results, which was an important turning year. Due to policy catalyst/China reopening, Sonoscape would maintain high growth in 2023, with relatively high certainty.</li>
<li>Sonoscape has established a high moat in the field of soft endoscopes. Even if new manufacturers enter this market, they are hard to affect the market pattern in short term.</li>
<li>Although the current valuation is not cheap, based on our forecast of its business lines, there's still growth space in valuation. Under positive momentum, this stock can be traded repeatedly.</li>
