Dual-Driven Strategy: “Commercialization + Innovation” to Build a Leading Vaccine Ecosystem

The vaccine industry is an essential pillar of public health with high entry barriers, stringent oversight, and extended development cycles – all factors contributing to its significant growth potential. As a leading domestic vaccine producer, Kanghua Biological’s flagship product – human diploid cell rabies vaccine – stands as China’s first domestically developed premium vaccine with over a decade of safe application, established market presence and nationwide distribution. The Company also maintains a robust global innovation pipeline, having successfully licensed its recombinant hexavalent norovirus vaccine overseas. This strategic acquisition, focused on critical segments of the vaccine value chain, will strengthen its strategic positioning. The M&A Fund is committed to supporting Kanghua Biological in leveraging its core product line while harnessing the combined strengthens of Shanghai and Chengdu to accelerate the formation of a next-generation vaccine industry ecosystem.

This acquisition marks a significant step to drive Shanghai and Chengdu biopharmaceutical cooperation. Post-transaction, Kanghua Biological will capitalize on Shanghai’s advanced R&D resources and access to top-tier scientific talent and global capital to enhances its industrial capabilities, manufacturing capacity, and market penetration. The M&A Fund will consolidate diverse industrial assets to promote Kanghua Biological’s integration with Shanghai’s R&D and clinical networks, creating an end-to-end collaborative system that spans from “clinical R&D to commercialization” and accelerates the development of a full industrial value chain.

Dual-Channel Empowerment: Driving Corporate Value through “M&A + Integration”
