Chinese life-science reagent maker producing enzymes, molecular-biology kits and reagents for research and diagnostics.
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.
Moat: narrow (process know-how, brand, IP / patents). Established quality/brand in domestic molecular-biology reagents, competing against multinational incumbents.
Headquarters: Nanjing, China · Employees: 3,002
