Sichuan Baicha Baidao IPO Trading – Tepid Demand, While Peers Have Corrected

By Sumeet Singh

  • Sichuan Baicha Baidao Industrial (2555 HK) (SBBI) raised around US$330m in its HK IPO.
  • SBBI sells new-style tea drinks through its ChaPanda stores. According to F&S, SBBI ranked third in China’s new-style tea shop market with a market share of 6.8% in FY23.
  • We have looked at the company’s performance and valuations in our past note. In this note, we talk about the trading dynamics.

Remegen (9995.HK/688331.CH) – The Placement Won’t Solve the Problem

By Xinyao (Criss) Wang

  • Remegen’s product revenue fails to cover R&D expenses and its sales profit is negative, which means that RemeGen’s cost control is disappointing, and the main problem is high selling expenses.
  • If RemeGen continues to follow the old path, breakeven will be further out of reach. In other words, we don’t think that the A-share placement will materially change the outlook.
  • Remegen’s reasonable market value is RMB12-18 billion. If above RMB18 billion, it’s recommended investors take profits in time. If below RMB12 billion, investors could buy and wait for a rebound.
