Group 3: Market Trends and Investor Sentiment - The recent IPOs have shown a stark contrast to the previous performance of biotech companies, which had been stable and successful in the latter half of the year, with many achieving over 100% gains on their debut [8]. - Subscription data for the four companies revealed that while Huachang Biotech and Impression Dahongpao had relatively good performance, Nanhua Futures and Mingji Hospital had low subscription multiples of 1.91 times and 6.28 times, respectively [10][11]. - The pricing strategy for these IPOs has shifted, with three companies pricing at the lower end of their offering range, indicating a need to attract investors [13][19].
