0434 GMT - Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals' shares could be re-rated higher if it makes further outlicensing deals, says Nomura's Jialin Zhang in a note. The company has yet to deliver such deals so far this year, the analyst notes. However, the Chinese pharmaceutical company reiterated its target of 30% growth for its innovative drug sales to reach 20 billion yuan in 2026. Meanwhile, potential gains from the recent listing of Hengrui's overseas associate Kailera could also bode well for the Chinese company, the analyst adds. Nomura retains its buy rating and HK$87.49 target price on the company's Hong Kong-listed shares, which are up 3.6% at HK$69.25. (megan.cheah@wsj.com)
