If Changshan Pharmaceuticals is rated as “seriously untrustworthy”:
- It may be included in the “blacklist” and restricted from listing products on the procurement platform
- Impact on medical insurance payment eligibility
- Institutional investors may be forced to reduce their holdings, triggering stock price fluctuations
- Far-reaching Impact of the Commercial Bribery Incident: Penetrating regulation directly transmits compliance risks to the listed company, which may trigger a centralized procurement credit crisis and deal a fatal blow to the heparin business that accounts for over 90% of revenue.
- Main Business Continues to Be Under Pressure: Amid the dual pressures of centralized procurement policies and market competition, the downward trend of the heparin business is irreversible, and the company has suffered substantial losses for two consecutive years.
- Ebenatide Cannot Reverse the Decline:
- R&D progress is severely lagging, and the launch time is uncertain
- Single-target products face dimensionality reduction strikes from multi-target drugs
- The GLP-1 market has entered a price war phase, leaving limited space for latecomers
- Lack of efficacy data and unclear competitive advantages
- Huge Valuation Bubble: The stock price increase far exceeds fundamental support. Once the concept cools down or the company faces regulatory penalties, the stock price may face a sharp pullback.
- Short-term uncertainty from NHSA credit evaluation
- Medium-term difficulty in turning around the loss-making main heparin business
- Long-term difficulty in materializing the GLP-1 concept to support valuation
- Extremely mismatched risk-return ratio
