MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

In 2019, the medical device industry continued a stable and rapid development. The "Announcement on Adjusting the Examination and Approval Procedures for Clinical Trials of Medical Devices" (《關於調整醫療器械臨床試驗審批程序的公告》) was published by the National Medical Products Administration ("NMPA") on 29 March 2019 to refine clinical evaluation system of medical device. The "Provisions on the Supervision and Administration of Customized Medical Devices (for Trial Implementation)" (《定制式醫療器械監督管理 規定(試行)》) was jointly issued by the NMPA and National Health Commission ("NHC"), with effect from 1 January 2020, which clarified that customized medical devices are subject to administration by record-filing. The enterprise shall report its ownership in same types of medical device registration certificate and relevant licenses for conducting mass production in accordance with the standard specification. The "Guiding Principle for Registration and Technological Review on Medical Device of Non-electric implantable bone, joint and oral hard tissue under Customized Additive Manufacturing"(《無源植入性骨、關節及口腔硬組織 個性化增材製造醫療器械註冊技術審查指導原則》) was published by NMPA on 15 October 2019 to boost the innovative development of medical devices under customized additive manufacturing. Relevant industrial regulations and policies in the PRC are beneficial to the development of medical device industry.

The orthopedic implant(note) market is a segment of the medical device market that has been developing rapidly in recent years. The inclusion of medical devices in medical care insurance coverage under the healthcare reform in the PRC has increased the demand for and acceptance of orthopedic implants. Various favorable factors such as aging population, continuous growth in healthcare expenditure and improvements in public healthcare infrastructure have also propelled the growth of the orthopedic implant industry in the PRC.

Due to the wide range of medical device products offered in the medical device industry, the medical device market in the PRC is highly fragmented and most of the manufacturers are relatively small in scale. However, since the orthopedic implant industry has high entry barriers, such as strict regulatory measures on quality control and licensing, high-level of production technology and stringent production process, it is relatively concentrated. The orthopedic implant market is generally divided into three major segments, namely trauma, spine and joint. In particular, the joint implant market is highly concentrated with multinational corporations dominating the market share. However, with the advancement of the healthcare reform in the PRC and governmental support to Chinese companies through favourable policies, the domestic companies are expected to increase their market share in the joint implant market by upgrading their product offerings.

Note: Orthopedic implants refer to medical device products that are used for replacing or as an adjuvant treatment for injured bones and skeleton and implanted into human bodies, including joint implants (such as knee joints, hip joint, shoulder joints and elbow joints), spine implants and trauma implants (such as calcaneal plates and bone pegs), excluding dental fillings.

Comprehensive medical device registration certificates

According to the domestic joint prosthesis products registration index (國產關節類產品註冊 檢索) of the NMPA, we are one of the domestic enterprises that hold the most comprehensive medical device registration certificates for joint prosthesis products in China in terms of number and types of certificates.

In June 2019, we have received the registration certificate for "non-absorbable suture anchors" issued by the NMPA, which marked the entry into the field of sports medicine and further enriched our product portfolio. In September 2019, we have received the registration certificate for "metal cable fixation systems" issued by the NMPA. As at 31 December 2019, we held 18 registration certificates and recordation certificates in the PRC for the production of medical devices which cover joint prosthesis products for the four major joints and spinal products, of which 12 are Class III medical device registration certificates, 1 is Class II medical device registration certificate and 5 are Class I medical device recordation certificates. As the PRC adopts a strict product registration system for medical devices manufacturing enterprises, the possession of comprehensive product registration certificates and recordation certificates is the key factor for enterprises to be more competitive in the market.

In 2019, we received product registration certificates from Thailand and Indonesia. Obtaining foreign registration certificates ensures the continued growth of our international sales and reflects our strong competitiveness in the international market.

Diversified product portfolio

Being one of the earliest domestic enterprises in the PRC to engage in research and development as well as production of joint prosthesis products, we have established a broad portfolio comprising various joint prosthesis products and spinal products. Our joint prosthesis products cover four major joints of human bodies (namely hip, knee, shoulder and elbow) while our spinal products comprise a full-range product portfolio of spinal fixation systems, including fixation systems in the anterior and posterior cervical, thoracic and lumbar vertebrae. In addition, our joint prosthesis products are also divided into standard joint prosthesis products and custom joint prosthesis products. The standard joint prosthesis products mainly include hip joint prosthesis products and knee joint prosthesis products, while the custom joint prosthesis products are also divided into two categories, namely conventional custom joint prosthesis products and custom (modular) joint prosthesis products. The custom joint prosthesis products are applicable to the four major joints of human bodies, and are specifically designed and produced to cater for clinical needs.

In the long run, we aim to become a leading enterprise in the market with a full range of orthopedic medical device products and to become one of the internationally renowned orthopedic medical device manufacturers. We plan to implement the following strategies:

Diversification of our product portfolio

We will continue to optimize and modify our existing products, and keep abreast of the technology development of the joint prosthesis sector and invest more resources in the research and development of new products. In order to build a more comprehensive product portfolio and to achieve product diversification, we will develop more products catering for patients' needs through the application of new materials and the improvement of production processes. With our technical expertise, we will continue to diversify and expand the development of joint prosthesis products, knee joint prosthesis products, spinal products as well as sports medicine products.

We are currently developing a joint prosthesis product called advanced customized and individualized joint prosthesis. It is an advanced model of the conventional custom joint prosthesis products with the use of advanced technologies such as 3D reconstruction on the basis of the Chinese skeleton database (中國國民骨骼數據庫). The existing custom joint prosthesis products mainly target patients suffering from bone tumor and joint revision whereas the advanced customized and individualized joint prosthesis products have a wider range of application. They are high-end products which can better analyse and cater for specific needs of patients. As such, we believe that advanced customized and individualized joint prosthesis products can generate higher profit margin. At the same time, the relevant regulations published by the NMPA have benefited the development of customized joint prosthesis and we will grasp this opportunity to propel the rapid development of patent for customized products.
