Industry and Policies
China’s macro economy was stable in general with improving quality of economic growth
in 2016.
GDP growth further slowed down to 6.7%*, downward pressure of economic growth
increased, indicating that the current economy is going through a relatively difficult time.
Despite slowdown of economic growth and frequent release of industry policies, the rigid
demand of healthcare industry continued, the industry growth continued to exceed the
macroeconomic growth. As more healthcare companies go public, the pharmaceutical
distribution and retail industries have entered a stage of merger, acquisition and expansion,
highlighting the importance of economic scale.
Stable economy in general with continuous rigid demand

GDP Trend
Opportunities and challenges brought along with frequent release of healthcare policies
The industry was challenged by policies such as “two-invoice system”, drug tender and
rigorous regulation of pharmaceutical distribution, contributing to facilitate the survival of
the fittest and a quicker consolidation within the industry, large-scale enterprises with
superior control and management will win out. The concentration ratio of the industry is
bound to increase in the future.
The separation of medical treatment and drug sale will bring along challenges for
hospitals, but will bring along enormous opportunities for the drug retail business. With
firm support from the government for the pharmaceutical e-commerce, traditional
pharmaceutical firms appealed to the Internet for new growth drivers, where enterprises
with strong platforms and offline resource edges will have high potentials.
In the long run, with the contribution from the aging population, urbanization, increase in
chronic diseases, rise in household income and the wider coverage of medical insurance,
we believe China’s healthcare industry will be filled with opportunities and featured with
rapid growth.
Fiercer competition and stricter regulations will accelerate the industry consolidation,
and the sustained deepening of healthcare reforms will make China’s healthcare system
more complete and regulated. We believe that enterprises like us, with leading network
advantages, compliant operations and superior corporate governance, will greatly
benefit from such reforms.
