• 2024 would be the low point in performance/valuation of Sinopharm. Due to the low base in 2024, revenue/net profit in 2025 is expected to rebound (e.g. high single-digit positive growth).
• Declining financial cost ratio is key driving force for profitability.Since the Fed would cut interest rate, a low interest rate environment helps Sinopharm reduce financial costs, thereby increasing profit margin.
• Since China hopes to establish a valuation system with Chinese characteristics, it would help drive up valuation of SOEs.Thus, there’s valuation repair opportunity for Sinopharm (e.g. P/E return to 8).
