By Tina Banerjee

  • US business growth was driven by new product launches and improvement in base business. The company has launched four new products in the US during the quarter.
  • Zydus Lifesciences expects double-digit growth in India branded formulation business to continue and the U.S. business to grow on a formidable base of FY23 going forward.

ClouDr Group (9955.HK) 23H1 – Turning Losses into Profits Is Within Reach

By Xinyao (Criss) Wang

  • When we discovered that JD Health’s growth could face a downturn crisis, we hope to find a suitable substitute. ClouDr has such potential due to its good performance/reasonable business model.
  • The current anti-corruption campaign could bring new opportunities to ClouDr, who can rely on “hospital first” strategy to take the upper hand, but it should be based on some prerequisites.
  • ClouDr’s business is expected to keep strong growth momentum in 2023. The Company is expected to achieve breakeven in 2024. Investors could see good stock price performance at that time.
