What Nanjing Vazyme Biotech does

Chinese life-science reagent maker producing enzymes, molecular-biology kits and reagents for research and diagnostics.

Sells enzymes, kits and reagents repeatedly to labs, so revenue follows research and testing activity, with purchases recurring once a lab has validated a product. COVID testing boosted demand for its raw materials during the pandemic, and that demand has since faded, leaving research and diagnostics customers as the base.

In one line: A Chinese life-science reagent supplier akin to New England Biolabs.

Req g is the revenue growth that today's enterprise value requires for seven years at the company's own cost of capital; Delivered g is what it actually grew; the gap is the hurdle (honest precision about ±8 points, so read the ranking more than the decimal). No fair values, price targets or analyst ratings are shown, by design. Method and validation.
