As DZD9008 and DZD4205 related international key clinical trials progress and subsequent R&D pipelines continue to advance, the company is expected to have a variety of globally approved innovative drugs. As R&D investment is strengthened, we have adjusted our profit forecasts. We expect the company's EPS for 2022-2024 to be -2.09 yuan, -2.47 yuan, and -2.65 yuan respectively, maintaining the “prudent increase” rating.
