Venus Medtech (启明医疗) Pre-IPO - Thoughts on valuation

Venus Medtech (Hangzhou) is a dominant player in the heart valve replacement devices market in China. The company started pre-marketing for a USD 300-400 million IPO for its Hong Kong listing.

In our previous notes, we covered the company’s fundamentals, including the company’s core TAVR (transcatheter aortic heart valve replacement), VenusA-Valve, and the company’s founders and investors.

We also deep-dived into the technical details and clinical research data of VenusA-Valve compared with competing peers.

We are of the view that the company’s products had an unmet demand in China with the backdrop of a rapidly ageing population and increasing prevalence of heart valve regurgitation.

In this note, we will take a close look at the company’s valuation. We are of the view that the company’s fair value should be around USD 1.6 billion, which is 60% above the valuation of Series E pre-IPO fundraising.
