Equity Bottom-Up

<ul>
<li>WuXi Bio's 24H1 performance is disappointing. Since XDC has become new growth driver for WuXi Bio, why continue to invest in WuXi Bio instead of directly investing in WuXi XDC?</li>
<li>Production capacity expansion is aggressive, with high personnel salaries/cost pressure. Without sustained growth in high-margin orders, WuXi Bio's profitability will continue to decline. Gross margin may not bounce back quickly.</li>
<li>The mid-to-late stage order increment in US would be dominated by Japanese/Korean CXO. Without a definitive long-term logic, valuation cannot return to previous highs. Any rebound is difficult to sustain.</li>
