RemeGen (荣昌生物) Pre-IPO - Thoughts on valuation

RemeGen is a China-based commercial-ready biopharmaceutical company with a focus on first-in-class and best-in-class biologics in the area of autoimmune, oncology and ophthalmic diseases. The company aims to raise USD 400m in a Hong Kong listing.

In our previous note, we discussed that the company's R&D is top-notch among Hong Kong-listed biotech companies. It has two near commercialization products, RC18, and RC48. RC18 (BLyS/APRIL target) has an innovative design and has demonstrated superior efficacy for SLE which has big unmet demand. RC48 (HER2 ADC) is the first domestically developed ADC that has entered the clinical trial stage. It also has a differentiated indication targeting HER2 low-expressing patients, compared to competing drug candidates. Thanks to its ADC platform and bispecific platform, the company has interesting and differentiated pipeline products entering clinical trials. The company has a strong management team and backing from reputable investors. We foresee strong demand for the deal.

In this note, we value the company's two key products, Telitacicept (RC18) and Disitamab Vedotin (RC48). We reached an rNPV based SOTP valuation for the company at USD 2.3 bn.
