Shanghai HeartCare Medical Technology / Equity Capital Markets

Shanghai HeartCare is a neuro-interventional medical device pioneer in China. It has four products approved for marketing and expects 9 products to commercialize in 2021, as well 10 products to commercialize between 2022 and 2025. The company launched book building to raise up to USD 145m via a Hong Kong listing.In our previous note, we looked at the company's two core products Captor and LAA Occluder. We think the Captor, a stent retrieving thrombectomy device, is the main selling point of the deal given its decent efficacy and safety data and it has already been approved by the NMPA. Market structure for Captor is characterized by the early stage of growth and dominance by MNC players and the company's product is the first approved domestic product with commendable data from head-to-head clinical trials. The company's management are mainly ex-employee from Microport Scientific, a leading international medical device player in China.In this note, we provide an update for the book building. We think the upside is substantial barring negative outcomes from the legal proceedings with Medtronic.

Technical and Quantitative Research

Vermilion Research

Vermilion’s objective is to deliver timely, actionable, and unique technical research to professional investors through the application of our various technical indicators.

Our research strategists seek to highlight securities which we believe are at major inflection points, based on our various technical and quantitative indicators, and offer asymmetric risk/return profiles. Our unique research methodology, centered on relative strength, enables our strategists to deliver superior investment recommendations.

Our process begins by organizing the universe of actively traded stocks into discrete sectors, then into industry groups. We then apply our technical and quantitative tools to identify developing price trends. Once attractive trends are identified within a selected sector or group, we screen for individual stocks which we believe offer the best risk/reward profile. We provide a historical perspective that often reveals, through our long-term charts, how price patterns often repeat themselves over time.

Technical Analysis

We continue to see a mixed market environment, but we remain constructive overall considering market dynamics remain largely positive (high yield spreads and relative strength for defensives sending risk-on signals, etc.). We explain our outlook below.
