·The pharmaceutical industry breaks the 'roll' with innovation·
Guotai Jun'an: The short-term tightening of the environment has an impact, and the pharmaceutical industry is expected to return to the main logic of demand driven after gradually clarifying. Under the classic DCF valuation model, if only a 3-5 month revenue revision is made, it will not significantly affect the discounted valuation of the company. However, based on the objective characteristics of the market itself, short-term stock prices will more reflect short-term 'marginal changes'. From the performance of stock prices from the end of July to the present, a considerable portion of the downward expectations for the tightening of the internal market have been traded. Since September, with the easing of the external environment, the sector has begun to stabilize and rebound. Although it is difficult to completely avoid the impact of the performance of some companies in the third quarter, if negative expectations have already been largely reflected, there is limited room for further decline. With the passage of time, the situation becomes clearer and uncertainty is more eliminated, which is expected to return to the demand driven investment logic once again.
CITIC Securities: The cyclical low prosperity of the current investment and financing environment and the policy impact do not change the high certainty of the growth of the biopharmaceutical industry. Innovation driven+high-end manufacturing is still the main line of growth, and the acceleration of domestic substitution and the implementation of medical infrastructure are still the beta of the industry for 3-5 years. The combination of industry anti-corruption and other factors is profoundly affecting industry transformation. Leading enterprises relying on their technological strength are expected to accelerate the concentration of their top advantages through integration and mergers, bringing stronger investment certainty, and also giving birth to new pharmaceutical business models. However, the overall medical anti-corruption may bring uncertainty to some companies' performance in the second half of the year, and it also requires active attention.
Southwest Securities: Continuously optimistic about the bottom opportunities of pharmaceuticals, focusing on grasping the 'three main lines'. The position of the pharmaceutical industry is still in a low allocation state, and the valuation is at the historical bottom range. Looking forward to the second half of 2023, we are optimistic about the pharmaceutical investment main line of 'innovation+going overseas, and the second half of recovery'. 1) Mainline 1- Innovation remains the source of sustainable development in the pharmaceutical industry. Differentiated innovative varieties such as BTK, HER2-ADC, PD-1/CTLA-4 and other target innovative drugs have gradually entered the stage of commercialization and release; Innovative instruments, including multiple surgical robot products, have been approved and launched one after another; 2) Mainline 2- Post epidemic medical recovery is also the core mainline. The recovery of demand for medical equipment in the hospital includes the demand for prescription drugs, consumables, blood products, and routine vaccination in the hospital; The channel end includes pharmaceutical distribution and pharmacy recovery.
Shanxi Securities: In the first half of 2023, the certainty of industry upward did not change, and the policies of supply, demand, and payment have continuity, with some measures tending to correct deviations and becoming more reasonable. The structural market of the pharmaceutical sector in the first half of the year is mainly reflected in the upgrading of generic drugs, traditional Chinese medicine, and China Special Evaluation. With the passing of the epidemic and the stabilization of the external macro environment, the pharmaceutical sector is at the bottom of its valuation in the past decade. In the second half of the year, we still believe that certainty is an opportunity and look for targets from bottom to top. It is recommended to focus on the innovative drug sector under the trend of marginal improvement of the external macro environment combined with industrial upgrading, medical devices and equipment under domestic substitution, generic drug sector with reasonable valuation and performance determination, and traditional Chinese medicine stocks with reasonable valuation under favorable policies.
