On September 16, BEONE MEDICINES fell 3.2% in regular trading, trading at HK$205.6/share, with turnover of HK$325 million. The decline came as the broader biotechnology sector faced selling pressure, compounded by a recent insider share disposal dampening short-term sentiment.
On the sector front, biotech stocks were broadly weaker, with AKESO down 4.72%, LEADS BIOLABS down 5.95%, REMEGEN down 2.58%, and INNOVENT BIO down 0.42%. Meanwhile, company director Wang Xiaodong recently sold 38,287 shares, realizing approximately US$13.37 million, adding near-term sentiment headwinds.
On the fundamental side, the company reported robust H1 results with revenue of US$3.219 billion, up 32.3% year-over-year, and net profit of US$464 million, surging 385.8%. Adjusted net profit reached US$820 million, more than doubling. Flagship product Brukinsa generated US$2.342 billion in global sales, up 34.5%. Multiple brokerages, including Barclays and CLSA, maintain positive ratings, with CLSA naming BEONE MEDICINES a top pick in the Chinese biotech space.
