  • The ceiling of China TAVR market is obvious due to high surgery cost and severe shortage of doctors/qualified hospitals. Future price war due to fierce competition is also a concern.
  • Related TAVR companies’ high valuation cannot be supported without sufficient incremental markets. So, if companies hope to break the ceiling, they have to develop global markets.
