Stock News11-25

UNITED LAB (03933) surged more than 4% before noon, with shares up 4.08% to HK$59.95 by the time of writing, recording a turnover of HK$31.28 million.

The company recently highlighted its diabetes product portfolio at the First Chronic Disease Prevention and Management Platform Construction Conference for Hypertension, Hyperlipidemia, and Hyperglycemia (Three-High Chronic Diseases), held in Beihai, Guangxi, on November 21–22. Among the showcased products were the newly launched liraglutide injection "UNI-LIRA®" and the upcoming semaglutide injection "UNI-SEMA®," expected to hit the market next year. These developments mark significant progress for UNITED LAB in the GLP-1-targeted therapy sector.

Notably, the company's subsidiary, United Biotech, previously entered into an exclusive licensing agreement with Novo Nordisk for UBT251. This collaboration not only validates UBT251's global market potential but also accelerates its worldwide development by leveraging Novo Nordisk's resources. The deal represents a key milestone in UNITED LAB's innovation-driven transformation, aligning its GLP-1 pipeline with international standards and expanding access to nearly 80 countries and regions, thereby enhancing the global influence of domestically developed GLP-1 therapies.
