Executive Summary

- Strategic pipeline catalysts: Hydronidone (F351) met the pivotal Phase 3 primary endpoint in CHB‑associated liver fibrosis; the company plans an NMPA NDA submission in Q3 2025 and a U.S. Phase 2 MASH fibrosis trial in 2H 2025 .
- Leadership change: Ping Zhang was appointed Interim CEO with Dr. Han Ying transitioning to SVP, Science; management emphasized global expansion and accelerating fibrosis‑first programs as key drivers .

What Went Well and What Went Wrong
What Went Well
- New launches drove incremental sales: Etorel generated $1.6M and Contiva $1.5M in Q2, supporting revenue growth despite ETUARY® pressure .
- Hydronidone pivotal success: “Achieved statistically significant ≥1‑stage fibrosis regression at Week 52 vs. placebo (52.85% vs. 29.84%, P=0.0002)”—a potential first‑in‑class anti‑fibrotic for CHB fibrosis with accelerated approval path in China .
- Management focus and continuity: “As interim CEO, I am excited to work closely with our leadership team to strengthen Gyre’s global footprint and accelerate our progress toward delivering transformative therapies to patients” .
What Went Wrong
- Margin compression and lower operating income: Income from operations fell to $2.2M from $3.2M YoY driven by $2.6M higher operating expenses (selling/marketing, G&A, R&D) .
- ETUARY® headwinds: ETUARY® sales declined YoY due to 2024’s one‑time rural campaign, tougher macro in China, and increased competition in IPF; similar pressures drove the H1 revenue decline vs. prior year .
- Net income lower YoY: Net income fell to $1.6M from $4.5M in prior‑year Q2, reflecting higher opex and reduced contribution from warrant liability fair value changes .

Estimates Context
- Wall Street consensus estimates for revenue, EPS, and EBITDA for Q2 were unavailable for GYRE via S&P Global at the time of this analysis; as such, comparisons to consensus and beat/miss assessments cannot be made (consensus unavailable; Values retrieved from S&P Global).*
- Given the product launch trajectory and pivotal data, we expect future coverage to broaden; current lack of estimates reduces near‑term sell‑side anchoring.
Key Takeaways for Investors
- Mix shift underway: New launches (Etorol, Contiva) are incrementally offsetting ETUARY® pressures; expect 2H revenue acceleration from broader commercialization and launch ramp .
- Hydronidone pivotal data is a material catalyst with high statistical significance and favorable safety; NDA submission in China and U.S. Phase 2 initiation are near‑term inflection points for valuation .
- Margins compressed QoQ due to higher operating expenses; watch selling and marketing investment intensity as launches scale, and G&A as public‑company costs normalize .
- Liquidity improved meaningfully post equity offering; cash, equivalents, and deposits reached $75.9M—providing runway to execute commercial ramp and U.S. clinical plans .
- Leadership transition aligns execution with pipeline expansion; interim CEO emphasizes global footprint and operational acceleration, reducing key person risk amid growth .
- Macro in China and IPF competition remain headwinds to ETUARY®; sustained progress in new indications and products is critical to diversify revenue .
- With no available Street estimates, trading may be more catalyst‑driven: near‑term focus on NMPA NDA filing, any regulatory feedback, and initiation of U.S. MASH Phase 2; monitoring further product sales trajectories will be key for 2H guide confidence .
