Key investment points

Thinking this week: how to view the investment value of rehabilitation track

We believe that under the background of the expansion of centralized mining, the normalization of anti epidemic and the disturbance of international restrictive events, based on the acceleration of China’s population aging process and the huge population base, the field of rehabilitation medicine has undoubtedly become one of the sectors with the strongest development certainty.

\u3000\u30001. What is the profitability of rehabilitation medical enterprises?

We found that in the past five years, the level of roe of rehabilitation medical enterprises is significantly higher than that of other segments. Revenue growth ranked second only to the high-value consumables sector, while gross profit margin and net profit margin have maintained a steady upward trend in recent five years.

\u3000\u30002. Where is the inflection point of the development of rehabilitation medical industry?

We believe that 2021 will be a stage of accelerated policy promotion and comprehensive construction of rehabilitation concept; 2022 is the year of small-scale trial of ox knife, and the stage of initially forming industry norms and standards; 2023 will be the stage of accelerated expansion of rehabilitation medicine and accelerated release of terminal demand.

\u3000\u30003. What is the competitive pattern of enterprises in the rehabilitation medical industry?

By the end of 2020, there are 4819 manufacturers of rehabilitation medical devices in China, but there are only a few listed companies in the industry, and the market concentration is still at a low stage.

\u3000\u30004. How to understand the core variables of the competitiveness of rehabilitation medical enterprises?

We believe that the state of enterprise enclosure dilutes the core variable of technical barriers, and the breadth of products is particularly important in occupying the blank market in the early stage. Generally speaking, it is suggested to pay attention to: Nanjing Vishee Medical Technology Co.Ltd(688580) , Xiangyumedicalco.Ltd(688626) , Shenzhen Lifotronic Technology Co.Ltd(688389) , Ningbo Sanxing Medical Electric Co.Ltd(601567) .
