HUTCHMED: Significant 2022 achievements catalyse a promising 2023

HUTCHMED’s transition into a sustainably profitable global biopharma continues to gather momentum, as evidenced in FY22 results, with growing commercial traction in China and pipeline progress with key assets. Global ambitions are now being addressed with partners. Positive fruquintinib FRESCO-2 data, completion of US FDA rolling filing, and execution of a global ex-China commercial and development deal with Takeda brings first launch of a HUTCHMED product outside of China even closer. The $400m Takeda upfront will boost the balance sheet and the prospect of further downstream economics enables HUTCHMED to focus on progressing its priority late-stage assets which, with plans to secure further strategic partnerships, should drive near-term value. Our HUTCHMED valuation is US$5.5bn (US$32.01 per ADS), £4.6bn and HK$43.2bn (534p or HK$49.94 per share).
