Business analysis

The performance of Hualan vaccine fluctuates in the short term, and the medium and long-term industrial trend remains unchanged. Hualan vaccine is the first enterprise approved to produce tetravalent influenza vaccine in China. In 2018-2020, the proportion of batch issuance of tetravalent influenza virus split vaccine of Hualan vaccine was 100.00%, 86.10% and 61.41% respectively, ranking first in the industry. Affected by the covid-19 epidemic in some parts of China in the fourth quarter of 2021, as well as the start of covid-19 vaccination and vaccination of children under the age of 12, the operating revenue of Hualan vaccine is expected to be RMB 1.941 billion to RMB 2.669 billion in 2021, a year-on-year increase of – 20% – 10%; The net profit attributable to the parent company is expected to be 740-1017 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of – 20% – 10%. The penetration rate of influenza vaccine in China is low, which is far lower than the average level of developed countries. The improvement of people’s health awareness of respiratory diseases under the epidemic situation will promote the continuous improvement of industry penetration rate.

Spin off and listing will help the company highlight its main business and enhance its comprehensive competitiveness. The company’s spin off of its subsidiary Hualan vaccine is conducive to highlighting its main business and enhancing its independence.

After the spin off and listing, Hualan vaccine will insert the wings of scientific and technological innovation and capital to help the sustained and rapid development in the future.
