China Healthcare Weekly (May.5)- 2nd Wave of COVID, Valuation Logic of China’s Core Assets, Lifetech

By Xinyao (Criss) Wang

  • Many people have begun to pay attention to whether there would be a second wave of COVID-19 in China. We think it is necessary to share our views.
  • The overvaluation or undervaluation of China’s core assets cannot be explained solely by classic valuation models such as PE/PB/DCF, but rather by considering the deep meaning represented by the companies.
  • Lifetech’s future growth space depend more on the performance of pacemakers and IBS, but they are facing different challenges. Therefore, we recommend short-term trade rather than long term hold.
