Smashed 5 billion, invested exclusively in Probio and then entered Legend Biotech Corp.

Kingsley's third announcement is that Hillhouse invested not only in its parent company, Kingsley, but also in its subsidiaries.

According to the announcement, Kingsley's Probio ushered in a round of financing, and the company subscribed for $70 million in convertible bonds, with a pre-financing valuation of $730 million for Probio.

According to the announcement, the Company and Hillhouse entered into binding contractual terms and conditions for the proposed round A financing of Probio Cayman, which is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, under which the Company will subscribe through its subsidiary Probio BVI for convertible bonds of US $70 million into Probio shares prior to the completion of Probio. The investor will subscribe for Probio CaymanA preferred shares with a total investment of US $150 million in round A financing.

In 2017, Legend Biotech Corp's CAR-T cell therapy LCAR-B38M/JNJ-4828 showed outstanding performance due to clinical data, and then, in 2020, Kingsley successfully spun it off to the United States for listing.

In other words, the three announcements involved HK $1.921 billion, HK $1.153 billion and US $650 million (about HK $5.049 billion) respectively, and Hillhouse invested HK $8.123 billion in one go.

Kingsley's share price skyrocketed, and investors got high: it could double.

After the announcement, Kingsley soared 17% in Hong Kong, instantly increasing its market capitalization by HK $7 billion. We can see from the monthly chart that the company's share price once rose to HK $34, when "who's the next Kingsley" scanned the screen more frequently.

Since then, however, the company's share price has plummeted, falling as low as about HK $10, trapping a group of people. Kingsley's shares have soared so far this year and have doubled from HK $9.66 at the start of the year. Come on, look at the madness of today's shareholders!

Some investors said, "Hillhouse has indeed picked peaches, and Xiao Jin has introduced the most important strategic investors in China at a low price, preparing for a market capitalization of hundreds of billions of yuan." some investors said, "it is not easy to get rid of the trap at last."

The investors who sold the shares began to doubt their life, "crying, who said they would resume trading next Monday, now they have flown." I bought it at 20 last night. I missed a lot of positions. "

For detailed investment, investors said, "A round of vigorous biology, yes, there is something interesting, another incubation, gem listing"; and short-term profit investors posted their own sell screenshots, "sold 1w shares, celebrate."

It is worth noting that Hillhouse is likely to have just completed a $18 billion financing in the near future. According to people familiar with the matter, Hillhouse is on the verge of completing its latest round of financing, with three new funds raising about $18 billion, up from a target of about $13 billion set in early April 2020.

Hillhouse Capital is currently replenishing funds as the COVID-19 epidemic has hit the economy, Bloomberg reported. This time, Hillhouse Capital has raised money from endowments and pension funds, and the financing is nearing completion, but the final details are likely to change.

About $10 billion of the $18 billion raised by Hillhouse will be spent on acquisitions, while the rest will be spent on growth equity (growth equity) and venture capital, according to people familiar with the matter.
