WuXi XDC (2268.HK) – How Long Will the Rally Last?

By Xinyao (Criss) Wang

  • WuXi XDC’s shares surged since IPO. Obviously, ADC industry is in a “honeymoon period”. The market is optimistic about ADC due to high certainty and growth visibility in short term.
  • Pharmaceutical companies believe this platform would produce blockbuster products continuously. However, if there’s any “persuasive event” to change optimistic expectations on ADC, it’s time for investors to reconsider WuXi XDC.
  • “Positive sentiment + non-falsifiable short-term logic” would indeed push WuXi XDC’s shares to a new high. As long as sales of major ADCs are in line with expectations, party continues.

Alignment of Management and Shareholder Interests Could Be the Beginning of Happiness

By Aki Matsumoto

  • TSE suggests presenting management strategies without sticking to the medium-term management plan, but the “medium-term management plan briefing” is the only opportunity to hear management policies from the company.
  • The primary reason why companies whose stock prices outperform even though they don’t publish medium-term management plan are founding-family companies is that their interests align with those of their shareholders.
  • To align management with shareholders, it was also necessary to require CEOs with low stock ownership to increase the ratio of variable compensation and adopt stock grants in director compensation.
