Sichuan Kelun-Biotech Biopharm (6990.HK) - Current High Valuation Is Not Secure

<ul>
<li>Since IPO, stock price of Kelun-Biotech has performed quite well. Then, the Company's valuation fluctuated. Investors seem not excited about <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/sichuan-kelun-biotech-biopharm" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:40071:1" rel="noopener">Sichuan Kelun-Biotech Biopharm (6990 HK)</a>’s 23H1 performance.</li>
<li>We won’t expect too much on A166 in such a difficult competitive landscape.Commercialization of SKB264 is also challenging.It's difficult to make up the story after A166/SKB264 begin to generate revenue.</li>
<li>After out-licensing all valuable/core assets to Merck, together with the departure of core R&amp;D personnel, Kelun-Biotech has been “hollowed out”.So, Kelun-Biotech's value lies in short-term trade rather than long-term hold.</li>
