Core Viewpoint - Zhifei Biological, once thriving on the agency of Merck's HPV vaccine, is now facing multiple challenges including high inventory, difficult receivables, and transformation issues, resulting in its worst interim performance since its listing in 2010 [2][3]. Financial Performance - In the first half of 2025, Zhifei Biological reported revenue of 4.919 billion yuan, a year-on-year decline of 73.06%. The net profit attributable to shareholders was a loss of 599 million yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 126.72%, marking the first half-year loss since the company's listing [3][5]. - The company has been in a continuous loss state for four consecutive quarters [5]. Business Model Challenges - The "agency + self-developed" business model has revealed several risks amid industry fluctuations. The agency business is heavily reliant on upstream suppliers, and any changes in their strategies can directly impact performance. Additionally, the long development cycle and high investment in self-developed products pose risks of product shortages if new products are not timely launched [7]. - Balancing agency introduction and self-development is crucial for domestic vaccine companies. While agency business can quickly enrich the product line, it is essential to choose products with market potential and technological advantages [7]. Dependency on HPV Vaccine - Zhifei Biological's business is highly dependent on the agency of Merck's HPV vaccine, which contributed approximately 68% of revenue in 2024. The company faces two core challenges: increasing channel conflicts as international manufacturers collaborate directly with local firms, and relatively low contribution from self-developed products, which accounts for less than 20% of revenue [8]. Decline in Product Sales - In the first half of 2025, the batch issuance volume of core agency products significantly declined, particularly the four-valent HPV vaccine, which dropped from 466,000 units in the first half of 2024 to 0 units, a decrease of 100%.

Self-Developed Products - Self-developed product revenue in the first half of 2025 was 500 million yuan, accounting for 10.15% of total revenue, with a gross margin of 78.50%, although this was an 8.06 percentage point decline year-on-year [14]. - The batch issuance volume of self-developed products like ACYW135 and Hib vaccines saw significant declines, with Hib vaccine issuance down 66.46% year-on-year [15][16]. R&D Investment - The company has historically maintained a low R&D expense ratio, below 4%, compared to peers. Although the R&D expense ratio reached 8.5% in the first half of 2025, this was primarily due to a significant drop in revenue [17]. - The projected annual R&D investment for 2025 is approximately 1.27 billion yuan, which is less than the previous year's 1.391 billion yuan [17].
