Sichuan Biokin Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.四川百利天恒药业股份有限公司02615.HK

Sales of generics and traditional Chinese medicines decreased over the Track Record Period as certain of our major marketed products are generic drugs that were adversely impacted by the VBP schemes, which resulted in (i) a significant reduction in selling prices for products included in the VBP schemes, despite an increase in sales volume under those VBP schemes; in some cases, a corresponding decrease in sales volumes to hospitals outside the VBP schemes, (ii) a decrease in sales volumes for products that belong to a drug class subject to the VBP schemes but did not participate in such schemes, and (iii) a decrease in sales volumes of certain product due to increased competition from its competing drug class which was included in the VBP schemes.

Summary · p. 2

The decrease in the average selling price was largely the result of (i) the significantly lower bid price under the VBP scheme, and (ii) the spillover effect of VBP pricing, which exerted downward pressure on selling prices in provinces not covered by the scheme.
