Event:

On March 1, the State Food and Drug Administration approved the company’s application for registration of recombinant covid-19 vaccine with conditions. One year after being approved for emergency use in China in March 2021, the vaccine became the first domestic recombinant covid-19 virus protein vaccine with conditional listing.

Comments:

The approval of conditional listing may add excellent clinical data or help to strengthen the promotion of vaccines

On the one hand, covid-19 vaccine is the only recombinant protein covid-19 vaccine approved for conditional listing in China; On the other hand, the company’s covid-19 vaccine, as a sequential booster needle and against the mutant strain, has shown excellent effectiveness in clinical data. Dual factors will catalyze the company to further strengthen the promotion of recombinant protein covid-19 vaccine, improve the penetration rate of the vaccine in the booster needle, and even promote the process of covid-19 vaccine going to sea. The preliminary analysis of the global phase III clinical trial data showed that the protective effect of three doses of vaccine on Delta mutant was 81.38%. In addition, according to the data in two published articles, the company’s recombinant protein covid-19 vaccine, as a sequential booster needle of inactivated vaccine, shows a higher geometric titer level of neutralizing antibody to various mutant strains, which is better than homologous booster vaccination.

In 2022, the company’s covid-19 vaccine sales scale at home and abroad totaled billions of yuan

In 2021, the recombinant protein covid-19 vaccine product is expected to contribute more than 10 billion yuan to the company’s revenue. In 2022, the official approval will help the company to further promote the recombinant protein covid-19 vaccine in China, superimposing the continuous promotion of covid-19 vaccine’s overseas business. Covid-19 business will continue to contribute a lot of cash flow to the company. It is expected that the sales scale of covid-19 vaccine will be about several billion yuan in 2022.
