Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the ongoing price war in China's vaccine industry, driven by changes in supply and demand dynamics, leading to significant price reductions and financial losses for companies [4][15][22]. Group 1: Price War Dynamics - The price of a three-valent flu vaccine has dropped to 5.5 yuan, cheaper than a cup of milk tea, indicating a severe price competition in the vaccine market [5][11]. - The China Vaccine Industry Association has issued an initiative to combat "involution-style" competition, urging members to avoid bidding below cost and threatening penalties for violations [6][8][10]. - The price war has persisted for two years, with the association's initiative being the first formal stance against low-price competition, although it may not resolve the underlying issue of overcapacity [6][10][22]. Group 2: Supply and Demand Changes - The supply side is characterized by homogenization and overcapacity, with many companies entering the vaccine market, leading to intense competition and price wars [16][17]. - Demand is also under pressure, with declining public trust in vaccines and a decrease in vaccination rates, particularly for flu vaccines, which averaged below 4% in China from 2020 to 2023 [17][19]. - The shift in focus from childhood vaccines to adult vaccines due to declining birth rates has intensified competition in the adult vaccine market [17][19]. Group 3: Financial Impact on Companies - The financial repercussions of the price war are evident, with vaccine companies experiencing a 60% drop in revenue and a 113% decline in net profit in the first half of 2025 [19][20]. - Major companies like Zhifei Biological and Wantai Biological have reported significant losses, with Zhifei's revenue down 66.53% and net profit loss of 12.06 billion yuan [20][21]. - Despite some companies showing growth in sales, the overall trend indicates that increased revenue does not equate to increased profit due to drastic price reductions [21][22].

Core Insights - The article discusses the competitive landscape of the shingles vaccine market in China, highlighting the unexpected price war initiated by GSK's vaccine, Shingrix, which is being promoted through a "buy one get one free" offer [1][2][4]. Market Dynamics - Shingrix's original price for two doses is 3,260 yuan, but with the promotion, the cost is reduced to 1,652 yuan, effectively a 50% discount [2]. - The vaccine has shown exceptional efficacy, reducing the risk of shingles by 97.2% in individuals aged 50 and above, and offers long-lasting immunity [2][7].

Consumer Behavior and Market Potential - Despite the high demand for shingles vaccines among the elderly population, the uptake has been low, with only 0.1% vaccination rate among those aged 50 and above in 2021 [9][11]. - The mismatch between the high cost of the vaccine and the financial capability of the target demographic is a significant barrier to market growth [11]. Challenges in Market Expansion - The competitive landscape in China is more fragmented compared to overseas markets, with both imported and domestic vaccines vying for market share, complicating the expansion efforts for Shingrix [11][13]. - There is a lack of awareness and understanding of the vaccine among the target demographic, which hinders its adoption [12][13].
