Blue Whale News, September 9 (Reporter Shao Yuting) As the first multi-dimensional OTC drug in China, “21 Gold Vita” has been selling well for 40 years, but the parent company behind it, Minsheng Health (301507.SZ), is still only a “new recruit” in the capital market. On September 5, Minsheng Health completed its first year on the GEM. How has this “capital recruit” performed in the past year?

According to the latest financial report, in the first half of 2024, Minsheng Health achieved operating income of 0.397 billion yuan, an increase of 8.06% over the previous year; net profit to mother was 77.2694 million yuan, an increase of 10.30% over the previous year.

Minsheng Pharmaceutical Factory, the predecessor of Minsheng Health, was founded in 1926 and has a history of nearly 100 years. It is one of the first four major Western pharmaceutical companies in China and the first batch of “Chinese Time-honored Brands” certified by the Ministry of Commerce. After public-private partnerships and shareholding system transformation, it has now become a private enterprise.

In 1985, Minsheng Health launched multi-dimensional tablets (21) (hereinafter referred to as “21 Gold Vitamin”), and introduced multi-vitamin and mineral tablets health food and food based on 21 Gold Vitamin.

Like many time-honored brands, Minsheng Health also faces the risk of a single product structure. From 2021 to 2023, 21K Gold Vita's sales revenue was 0.476 billion yuan, 0.439 billion yuan, and 0.423 billion yuan respectively, accounting for 82.05%, 80.46%, and 86.70% of the company's current main business revenue, respectively.

To this end, in 2020, Minsheng Health acquired Health Technology, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Minsheng Pharmaceutical, the controlling shareholder of the company, and obtained three products including probiotic granules, probiotic powder, and probiotic solid drinks. However, revenue from the probiotic series gradually declined. From 2020 to 2023, revenue dropped from 23.8223 million yuan to 6.3774 million yuan, accounting for 5.49% to 1.10%.

Currently, the company has built four core business segments: 21 Golden Vita, Pribao, Minsheng Health, and Minsheng Tongchun. In terms of products, in the first half of 2024, the company achieved significant growth in multivitamin and mineral tablet health food and food, but 21K Vitamin still contributed nearly 80% of revenue. In addition, the company also outsourced the production and sale of probiotic granules and probiotic powder products to Health Technology free of charge, so it did not disclose the latest revenue situation of related products in the financial report.

According to financial reports, in the first half of 2024, 21 Golden Vitamin's revenue was 0.314 billion yuan, an increase of only 2.02%, accounting for 79.09% of revenue, and gross margin of 67.18%; revenue from multivitamin and mineral supplements increased 22.23% year-on-year to 50.9351 million yuan, accounting for 12.85%, and gross margin of 42.06%.

In order to break the single product situation, People's Livelihood and Health is vigorously promoting research and development of new products. In June 2024, Minsheng Health re-launched the “Minsheng Tongchun” brand to develop products for people with new hair and women. In August, Minsheng Health cooperated with Zhongke Jiayi (Shandong) Investment Holdings Co., Ltd. to build a probiotic strain raw material brand and officially enter the probiotic market. In the first half of 2024, the company invested 16.1037 million yuan in R&D, an increase of 1.11% over the previous year, accounting for 4.05% of the company's revenue.

Minsheng Health's sales model is mainly based on distribution methods. The cooperation model between the company and dealers is buy-out distribution. The main customers are large pharmaceutical distributors nationwide and pharmaceutical distributors with strong regional strength. In 2023, the sales revenue obtained by the company through the distribution model accounted for 90.71% of the main business revenue, respectively.

In order to broaden online channels, in the first half of the year, the company created a product “21 Gold Vitas Peach Vase” specifically aimed at adult women, and incorporated the product into the hit dramas “Ode to Joy 5” and “The Story of a Rose” through advertisements. However, this also caused the company's marketing expenses to soar. In the first half of 2024, Minsheng Health's sales expenses were 0.115 billion yuan, an increase of 12.14% over the previous year.

On September 5, 2023, Minsheng Health was officially listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange GEM. The capital raised 0.891 billion yuan, the issue price was 10 yuan/share. The closing price was 32.78 yuan/share on the day of listing, and the market value exceeded 12.8 billion yuan.

As of September 9, 2024, Minsheng & Health reported 11.53 yuan/share, a decrease of 64.85% since listing. The total market value was 4.111 billion yuan, and the market value evaporated by more than 8 billion yuan.
