Market Focus06-08 10:10

On June 8, WuXi XDC fell 3.73% in regular trading, trading at 48.26 HKD/share, with trading volume of 79.59 million HKD. The stock has now fallen more than 15% below the average buyback price of 57.3 HKD disclosed earlier.

On the news front, despite the company's intensive share repurchase program — with its professional trustee purchasing 5.702 million shares at an average price of 57.3 HKD between May 19 and 29, totaling approximately 327 million HKD — selling pressure has continued unabated. The parent company WuXi Biologics also has a buyback plan of up to 400 million USD, bringing the combined WuXi group repurchase scale to approximately 500 million USD. Additionally, the company proposed at its upcoming AGM on June 26 to authorize buybacks of up to 10% of issued share capital.

Despite these measures, the entire WuXi ecosystem faced broad-based weakness today, with WuXi Biologics down 5.31%, WuXi AppTec down 3.21%, and GenScript Biotech down 4.64%, reflecting persistent market concerns weighing on the Life Sciences Tools and Services sector.
