Life Sciences versus Diagnostics: So far, in our “fallen angels” category, the +44 20 7 9919355

space is that if there were to be rate cuts, the potential for biotech funding recovery Sidharth Sahoo*

are not as large, even then the cyclical recovery potential remains attractive for the Limited

sequential steady momentum. This is despite the fact that during the pandemic the +55 52 8551 7904
companies have expanded their installed base that offers latent potential to sell higher Damayanti Kerai*

optionality on interest rate cuts is likely smaller for diagnostics. We think that there is a Limited

Mind the margins for therapeutics: The combination of IRA price negotiations, and Yash Singhee*

important in shaping growth expectations to Q1’25e. HSBC Global Investment Summit

Charts of the week: Expectations ahead
Organic revenue growth recovery expectations for life sciences and tools are expected in Life science versus diagnostics- greater margin of safety in diagnostic valuations
consensus and market’s optimism
60% We believe life science companies seem to have momentum and growth expectations in their favour. The
companies are seen as structural growth companies with products and services embedded in customers’
40%
products, especially due to regulatory approval processes. This creates a recurring growth driver for the
20% sector. Given the COVID-19-led de-stocking and biotech funding impact in 2023, the comps for 2024e are
sequentially easier. This makes for an easy recovery story for the sector. That underpins the market’s bullish
0% stance on the sector.
Diagnostic names that have also suffered (more due to COVID-19 than biotech funding) through 2023 are
-20%
also set for comps-led recovery, in our view. However, in contrast with the market’s bullish stance on life
-40% sciences companies, the market does not seem as enthusiastic on diagnostic names’ recovery potential. We
think that the larger installed base of instruments during the pandemic allows for latent earnings potential for

2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 limited. Therefore, we think that there might be a greater margin of safety in diagnostic valuations.

Q1 2024 Pre-close Schedule and comments


Company Name Ticker Date Time Comment/Key issues
Completed
Company comments indicate sell-side estimates for revenue growth seem on the higher side (Vara consensus 10.4% organic growth). Q1 looks solid with easier China comps,
softer growth in following quarters due to challenging macro. Intraoral scanner market at high-single digit to low-double digits, growing faster than the group. New product
launches: iEXCEL implant system launched in the US in Q1, expected to be launched in Europe in Q3. Gross margin difference between premium and challenger brands is
single ppt. China VBP: 15-20% growth CAGR for next 18 months (used to be 20% earlier). VBP contract for 3-4 years; next round expected in 2026/27 where the focus is likely
Straumann STMN SW 21-Mar-24 to be more on local production rather than pricing.
Philips PHIA NA 22-Mar-24 We expect indications of the size of the legal liability,nature of margin recovery in PH and CC, timing of margin recovery in D&T
Q1 last year had benefited from wholesaler stocking on Semglutide revenues. In addition, Q4-23 growth run rate was flattered by gross-to-net adjustment reversal in Wegovy.
Novo Nordisk NOVOB DC 22-Mar-24 Change hack might have had some impact. Rare disease seems to have stabilised.
Q4 and Q1 are usually seasonally strong due to RSV; Beyfortus had fantastic launch in the US, observed impact for Synagis in Q4 likely to carry on in Q1 due to Beyfortus
launch. Sanofi shipped 230k new shots of Beyfortus in Jan. Efa-alfa's launch will be predominantly a 2025 story; Elocta successfully maintains and grow numbers of patients to
offset pricing pressure, benefit from strong international markets (Eastern Europe and Middle East); Doptelet expects good momentum, no revenue from China expected; Q-on-
SOBI SOBI SE 25-Mar-24 Q Gross margin negatively impacted by RSV shifting towards Beyfortus; Opex expected to be higher Q-o-Q as the CTI integration still has a negative impact on margin
Litigation strategy is exploring all options. The ‘Texas two-step bankruptcy’ is one of the tools, companies have used to try to avoid litigation liabilities in the past. The company
has suggested that the press commentary is speculation and they have not indicated they are preparing for it. That said, they say they are considering all the tools. There are
three things they are flagging- Crop science: EUR600m yoy negative EBITDA impact from lower Glyphosate prices and switch to Soy (from corn in 5m acres). VA consensus
seem to expect cEUR400m impact currently so run-rate EUR200m in Q1. Net financial results higher by EUR400m (CMD guidance had indicated that) and Xarelto (consensus -
9.6%) decline of double digit in guidance (seems consistent with consensus). Bear in mind, Xarelto is one of the most profitable products, so operational gearing of such decline
Bayer BAYN GR 25-Mar-24 is high. Consensus is modelling margin pressure in Pharma, however the timing of generic competition is uncertain so this could create miss/beat dynamics in first quarter.
Markets are healthy, according to the company, but Germany and France are still below expectations. Hearing instruments business recovered in H2, local currency growth of mid-
single digit in H2 expected. Audiological care: consensus is optimistic; H2 more muted than H1. Nice pickup on cochlear implants (low-single digit for full year and high-single digit
for H2) but consumer remains challenging (negative mid-single digit for the year for consumer). Fx headwinds are easing now. The company expects 6-7% fx headwind at top-line
and 12-14% at adj EBITDA level, more on the lower-end. Minimal fx headwind for next year. The company has guided for P&L tax-rate of 18% for next year (vs 15% this year).
Have regained some share in VA, which also has higher margins. No price increases made since July last year. Skew next year: No guidance for NY yet. Next platform due in
Sonova SOON SW 25-Mar-24 summer, 1H launch costs, revenues H2. R&D: the company doesn’t see the need to raise R&D spending but it is true that the market is moving faster now. Scale helps
On the wake of the cyberattack, the company expects a high level of medical loss ratio in Q1 and Q2 because of removal of pre-authorisation from March 8 onwards till the end of the
quarter leading to higher level of utilisation. The relaxations include removal of prior authorisation for outpatient services for MA, utilisation review for inpatient admissions and drug
formulary exception review for Medicare Part D. The aid of USD2bn given to smaller providers is for 30 days and will see recovery in Q2. The sale of Brazil operations is complete and
the company expects the impairment charges in reported GAAP numbers in Q1. It is too early to comment on the structural impact of the cyberattack. The company expects to see an
United Health Group UNH US 25-Mar-24 impact in the Insurance and Optum insights divisions (Change Healthcare is a part) while they expect limited impact in the Optum Health and Optum Rx divisions.

Equities ● Life Sciences & Healthcare


Eurofins ERF FP 26-Mar-24 Softness in European business, especially food testing business. Recovery in biophama business. Weak free cash flow. EBITDA margin pressure and potential price increases.
Sanofi SAN FP 26-Mar-24 VA consensus Q1 gross margin seems oddly optimistic, and not consistent with the company's guidance at the full-year results. Supply shortage of Beyfortus puts a limit on
growth in Q1. The company indicated the Dupixent target for the year remains EUR13bn sales, however Q1 tends to be seasonally weak (amongst other things due to co-pay
resets). Fx and gross margin commentary indicates consensus might be arithmetically 3-5% ahead of current guidance for 2024e, mainly due to Q1’24 and forex.
Timing of China recovery, any early indications of centralized procurement from various provinces in China, trajectory of recovery in Dx are key focus points. Pre-close
comment: Not much to say about the quarter as China anticorruption campaign continues to take a toll on equipment growth (affecting imaging, Varian and AT), all of which
should approach the bottom-end of FY24 guidance both in growth and margins as of H1. In line with earlier guidance, the company expects H2-loaded growth and margin
improvement. News of further China subsidies for healthcare, and historical trend point to China weakness being transient, while the quarter should point to a healthy book-to-bill
ratio and good momentum, despite China remaining below its potential. FX headwinds should diminish in Q2 vs Q1, while Varian growth also normalizes from very strong >20%
Siemens Healthineers SHL GR 26-Mar-24 growth rates both in Q1 and y/y.

USD3.9bn written down in FY22. The company has also started GRAIL divestment process and is expected to finalize the terms by end of Q2 24.
Lonza LONN SW Buy Q4 call 20/03/2024 Conference call questions were around updated guidance, growth trajectory of the new asset and capacity utilisation. The management
commentary acknowledged that the reason for this acquisition was largely due to the need of additional large-scale commercial capacities. The impact on the
upgraded guidance assumes revenue step-up from 2025, which was contributed by the current Roche projects from the site (approximately
occupying 30% capacity). The company confirmed that in the short-term no new modalities will be added into the site. Growth will likely accelerate
after projects mix gradually shifting away from existing Roche projects and more toward third-parties over the medium term. The management
shunned questions regarding market pricing for the new facilities, potential pipeline, the value of Roche contract, and any further potential M&A, but
reiterated there is strong demand and expectation for Lonza’s CDMO business. A question around the impact of the Biosecure Act was raised, the
management commented that the they were in active discussion, but “it is too early to tell”.

commentary compared to what was previously communicated, to take into account any risks of inventory write-offs from its partner Pfizer. Opex increase is

Sector multiples and valuation comparisons

Although defensive Biopharma multiples remain elevated, the market seems to be increasingly
nervous regarding MedTech names. The potential cyclicality of MedTech stocks is under closer
scrutiny. Investors seem keen to understand which names could be resilient relative to the
sector and in absolute terms. The multiples are based on Refinitiv Datastream consensus.

The multiples for Biopharma names are broadly consistent with growth expectations as well as
patent cliffs. In contrast, the market seems to have less confidence in the earnings growth rate
estimates for the MedTech sector.

Important disclosures
Equities: Stock ratings and basis for financial analysis
HSBC and its affiliates, including the issuer of this report (“HSBC”) believes an investor's decision to buy or sell a stock should
depend on individual circumstances such as the investor's existing holdings, risk tolerance and other considerations and that
investors utilise various disciplines and investment horizons when making investment decisions. Ratings should not be used or
relied on in isolation as investment advice. Different securities firms use a variety of ratings terms as well as different rating
systems to describe their recommendations and therefore investors should carefully read the definitions of the ratings used in
each research report. Further, investors should carefully read the entire research report and not infer its contents from the rating
because research reports contain more complete information concerning the analysts' views and the basis for the rating.

From 23rd March 2015 HSBC has assigned ratings on the following basis:
The target price is based on the analyst’s assessment of the stock’s actual current value, although we expect it to take six to 12
months for the market price to reflect this. When the target price is more than 20% above the current share price, the stock will
be classified as a Buy; when it is between 5% and 20% above the current share price, the stock may be classified as a Buy or a
Hold; when it is between 5% below and 5% above the current share price, the stock will be classified as a Hold; when it is between
5% and 20% below the current share price, the stock may be classified as a Hold or a Reduce; and when it is more than 20%
below the current share price, the stock will be classified as a Reduce.

Our ratings are re-calibrated against these bands at the time of any 'material change' (initiation or resumption of coverage, change
in target price or estimates).

Upside/Downside is the percentage difference between the target price and the share price.

Prior to this date, HSBC’s rating structure was applied on the following basis:
For each stock we set a required rate of return calculated from the cost of equity for that stock’s domestic or, as appropriate,
regional market established by our strategy team. The target price for a stock represented the value the analyst expected the
stock to reach over our performance horizon. The performance horizon was 12 months. For a stock to be classified as Overweight,
the potential return, which equals the percentage difference between the current share price and the target price, including the
forecast dividend yield when indicated, had to exceed the required return by at least 5 percentage points over the succeeding
12 months (or 10 percentage points for a stock classified as Volatile*). For a stock to be classified as Underweight, the stock was
expected to underperform its required return by at least 5 percentage points over the succeeding 12 months (or 10 percentage
points for a stock classified as Volatile*). Stocks between these bands were classified as Neutral.

*A stock was classified as volatile if its historical volatility had exceeded 40%, if the stock had been listed for less than 12 months
(unless it was in an industry or sector where volatility is low) or if the analyst expected significant volatility. However, stocks which
we did not consider volatile may in fact also have behaved in such a way. Historical volatility was defined as the past month's
average of the daily 365-day moving average volatilities. In order to avoid misleadingly frequent changes in rating, however,
volatility had to move 2.5 percentage points past the 40% benchmark in either direction for a stock's status to change.
