The market highly coincides
Greenery Pharmaceutical Prospectus has said that in preparation for the listing, the directors of the Company have considered whether to acquire the interests of Luye Investment Group in Luhu Lvye. However, after due consideration and for the reasons stated below, the directors of the Company consider that it is not in the best interests of the Company to incorporate the business of Wuhu Luye into the Group.
Since its establishment in 2001, Wuhu Green Leaf has been mainly focused on the production and sale of non-proprietary Chinese medicines that have been extracted from herbal medicines based on basic technologies. The main products of Luye Investment Group are all chemical products except Xuezhikang. Xuezhikang is a kind of traditional Chinese medicine which is developed by advanced technology and protected by many patents. Wuhu Green Leaf and Green Leaf Investment Group adopt different operation and management modes in drug development and production, procurement, sales and marketing strategies. Wuhu Luye and the Group's major products, approved by the Food and Drug Administration, are used to treat different diseases and are registered under different categories. From such reasons as Green Leaf Pharmaceutical, the business of the Group and Green Leaf of Wuhu has been operating separately since its establishment in 1994 and 2001 respectively.
In addition, Green Leaf Pharmaceutical said that Wuhu Green Leaf has a different business focus. Wuhu green leaves mainly focus on the production and sale of Chinese medicine. The three products of Wuhu greenery, namely Ginkgo biloba, Yinao capsule and Yiganling soft capsule (accounting for about 53%, 17% and 8% of the total revenue of Wuhu greenery in 2013), are listed in the "China Pharmaceuticals Catalog "Are included in the lower category. Wuhu Luye's products are not exclusive to the market and face fierce competition from other drug makers who produce similar products. In addition, Wuhu green leaves did not engage in any research and development activities.
In contrast, Luye Investment Group, in addition to Xuezhikang, all the major products of the Group are chemicals (non-traditional Chinese medicine). Although Xuezhikang is a traditional Chinese medicine, it is classified as a higher category in the "Drug Catalog of China" of the Food and Drug Administration, namely, three types of traditional Chinese medicines (a new substitute for one ingredient). Green Leaf Pharmaceutical said its products and Wuhu green leaf products are used to treat different diseases, and its market does not overlap.
However, Wuhu green leaf official website has shown that the company operates green leaf brand drugs. The company has 57 drug approval number, a number of products are included in the national essential medicines and health insurance directory, of which the yuan of the Ginkgo biloba capsule selected 2012 national essential medicines directory; lung Thai capsule for the exclusive national pulmonary medicine, the country Three types of new drugs; Maier Paracetamol Min San extract capsules for the country's exclusive Medicare, OTC varieties. "Yuan of Ginkgo biloba capsule" "lung Thai capsule" "Younesi Yiganling soft capsule" "Xiaoyanlidan dripping pill" and other 8 products won the national invention patent. Obviously, Wuhu green leaves the official website and prospectus are not the same.
Reporter noted that the main products of Wuhu green leaf indications market and green leaf medicine under the jurisdiction of "Peking University letter" and "green leaf Baoguang" main products of the indications market highly coincident.
In this connection, Luye Pharmaceutical said that although Ginkgo biloba, the main product of Wuhu green leaves, can be regarded as a product in the field of cardiovascular treatment (the same therapeutic area as Xuezhikang), Xuezhikang and Ginkgo biloba capsules do not compete.
Greenery staff also told reporters on the phone, Wuhu green leaves and listed companies do not constitute leafy competition with the industry.
