Peer Comparison

Many small biopharmaceutical companies face challenges in product development and market promotion, leading to weak overall revenue growth.

2. Peer evaluation analysis: Compared with peers, CRDL's operating revenue performance is poor. Many peer companies can achieve positive revenue growth at the same time, while CRDL continues to be in a loss state, showing its lack of market competitiveness and profitability.

Summary

CRDL's financial performance in 2024 reflects the company's severe market competition and internal management challenges. The continuous negative operating revenue and rising expenses indicate increased pressure on the company's profitability and cash flow, which may require a reevaluation of its market strategy and cost control measures.

Opportunities

1. With the supply-side structural reform of the biopharmaceutical industry, there may be a new growth cycle in the future, providing opportunities for the market rebound.

2. If CRDL's CRD-38 can achieve positive results in clinical trials, it may introduce new sources of revenue and enhance market recognition.

3. Under the overall policy support of the industry, the demand for innovative drugs and medical services is expected to grow, providing CRDL with an opportunity to expand its market share.

Risks

1. Continuous negative operating revenue may lead to tight cash flow, affecting daily operations and research and development.

2. Intensified competition, especially the emergence of generic drugs, may further erode CRDL's market share.

3. The continuous rise in research and development expenses may lead to the company's inability to achieve profitability in the short term, increasing financial burden.
