Core Viewpoint - Unimed Pharmaceutical is facing its most severe survival test since its establishment due to significant production management deficiencies identified by the Tianjin Drug Administration, leading to a suspension of production and sales [1][3][5]. Financial Performance - Unimed's subsidiary, Tianjin Unimed, generated revenue of 217 million yuan in 2024, accounting for 60.09% of the company's total revenue, with interferon products contributing over 70% to this figure in the past three years [7][8]. - The company's total revenue for 2024 was approximately 360 million yuan, a decrease of 16.14% compared to 2023, with the interferon segment experiencing a 28.59% decline in revenue [8][10]. - The net loss for the company has been increasing, reaching 137 million yuan in 2024, with a significant quarterly loss of 167 million yuan in Q4 due to the suspension of core products [10][12]. Regulatory and Compliance Issues - This incident marks the second major quality issue for Tianjin Unimed in 2024, following a previous failure of the "human interferon α2b spray" to meet biological activity standards, resulting in procurement suspensions from several provinces [9][12]. - The company has faced continuous non-standard audit opinions for eight consecutive years, raising concerns about the fairness of drug pricing and ownership disputes of subsidiaries [9][12]. Market Reaction - Following the news of the production suspension, Unimed's stock price plummeted to 7.42 yuan per share, hitting the daily limit down, with a total market capitalization of approximately 4.895 billion yuan [3][10]. - The stock has been trading below 10 yuan since the second half of 2024, reflecting a nearly 90% decline from its peak in 2015 [10][12]. Future Outlook - The suspension of production has cut off the company's main cash flow and led to the urgent recall of inventory valued at 23.16 million yuan. If production does not resume within three months, the company may face ST (special treatment) status and potential delisting risks [12]. - The company is attempting to establish a special rectification team, but historical issues and a lack of market confidence complicate recovery efforts [12].
