Huadong Medicine Co Ltd (000963.CH) – A “Dark Horse” to Reverse Performance Dilemma

By Xinyao (Criss) Wang

  • The most recent two quarters have maintained positive growth. It is of great significance for Huadong, who once suffered a significant decline and now in a critical period of transformation.
  • The large growth potential of medical cosmetology and industrial microbiology would be important driver for future development. It’s also wise to strike a balance between current performance and future strategy.
  • Huadong’s revenue growth would be above 10% in next few years. It would have higher valuation than Imeik. Investors are advised to follow Huadong. It could be a “dark horse”.
