Citi remains positive on Fosun’s business streamlining and core business-focused strategy. Following a series of recent meetings with Fosun’s management team, Citi noted that the discussions reflected a clear strategic direction. Management has indicated that Fosun will continue to focus on its core businesses, deepen its global presence, and continue to step up innovation efforts.
Citi also notes Fosun’s ongoing efforts to optimize its financial structure and highlights its firm commitment to deleveraging and divesting non-core assets. Fosun’s business streamlining approach will not only enhance financial resilience but also sharpen the Group’s strategic focus on core businesses to unlock long-term value. UBS, in its latest research report, also notes Fosun’s proactive steps to dispose non-core assets, optimize its asset portfolio, and increase cash flow amid improving equity market sentiment and valuation, thus raising the target price for Fosun International.
In fact, multiple domestic and international securities firms, including Citi, Industrial Securities, Kaiyuan Securities, Huaxi Securities, SDIC Securities, China Securities, and Founder Securities, currently hold “Buy” or “Overweight” ratings on Fosun International, with target prices ranging from HK$6.5 to HK$7.5. They are confident in Fosun’s solid business resilience and innovation-driven growth. Citi highlights that Fosun’s health and insurance businesses will provide long-term profit momentum for the Group, while securities firms such as Industrial Securities and Huaxi Securities remain upbeat on the sustained breakthroughs in Fosun’s core cultural tourism and consumer businesses.
Powered by continuous innovation, Fosun’s Health segment has achieved multiple breakthroughs in the field of innovative drugs, earning strong endorsements from securities firms. Among which, HANSIZHUANG, an anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody independently developed by Fosun, has become the world’s first anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody approved for the first-line treatment of small cell lung cancer (SCLC). To date, it has been approved for marketing in nearly 40 countries and regions, including China, the European Union, the United Kingdom, Singapore, and India. Additionally, HLX43, a PD-L1-targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) independently developed by Fosun, is undergoing clinical studies for solid tumors such as non-small cell lung cancer and thymic carcinoma in countries including China, the United States, and Australia. Currently, no PD-L1 ADC has been approved globally, positioning HLX43 as a potential highly effective and safe broad-spectrum anticancer drug.
