Company Report

Sinopharm Earnings: Lowering Fair Value on Revenue Slowdown; Shares Undervalued

We slightly lower our fair value estimate for narrow-moat Sinopharm to HKD 23.80 per share from HKD 24.70 after interim revenue missed expectations. We think the weaker outlook will continue into 2025 but should normalize thereafter. As such, we keep our long-term assumptions unchanged as we think Sinopharm will continue to benefit from industry consolidation. We still think Sinopharm is undervalued, currently trading at 0.4 price/book and 8.0 price/earnings. We believe our projected 25% year-on-year fall in 2024 earnings is already reflected in its share price, but we think news flow will still be lackluster in the near term.

Price vs Fair Value

01099 is trading at a 494% premium.
