Core Viewpoint - In 2024, Heng Rui Medicine achieved significant revenue growth, with total revenue reaching 27.985 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 22.63%, and net profit attributable to shareholders reaching 6.337 billion yuan, up 47.28% year-on-year, indicating a potential shift from "supply chain disruption" to "turnaround" [1][6]. Group 1: Performance Drivers - The strong performance in 2024 is primarily driven by substantial external licensing income, including 1.6 billion euros from Merck Healthcare and 1 billion USD from Kailera Therapeutics, leading to a sixfold increase in licensing income compared to 2023 [7][12]. - The company's core business net profit and non-recurring net profit would revert to around 4 billion yuan if excluding these non-recurring gains, indicating reliance on external partnerships for profit growth [7][15]. Group 2: Impact of Centralized Procurement - The generic drug business still contributes 50% to the company's revenue, and the impact of centralized procurement remains significant, with ongoing effects from previous rounds of procurement [3][4]. - The third and fifth rounds of centralized procurement led to substantial revenue declines in 2021, with sales dropping by 55% and 37% respectively for affected products [3][4]. - The seventh round of procurement also saw a 48% decline in sales for affected products, and the upcoming ninth round is expected to further impact revenue in 2025 [5][6]. Group 3: Valuation and Investment Considerations - The current rolling P/E ratio of around 50 suggests that the company may need 2-3 years to digest this valuation, with expectations of net profit growth slowing to 15%-20% from 2025 to 2027 [17][18]. - The market is shifting focus from short-term profits to long-term innovation value, which may limit the short-term upside for Heng Rui Medicine, given its significant reliance on generic drugs [20].
