[Shanghai 10 billion M&A Fund! 】Since the second half of 2024, there have been frequent large-scale acquisitions in the A-share market, and the biomedical industry has accelerated its integration. For example, China Bio-Pharmaceutical intends to acquire about 55% equity of Haooubo by means of "agreement+offer", Qianhong Pharmaceutical plans to invest 390 million yuan for bankruptcy and reorganization of Fiona Fang Pharmaceutical, Pharmacists help to acquire a piece of medicine, Xinnuowei plans to acquire 100 grams of Shiyao, and Sichuan Shuangma announced the cross-border acquisition of Jianyuan Medicine ...Since then, after continuing to Shenzhen and Anhui, Shanghai has also made efforts in mergers and acquisitions.
Biomedicine, as one of the leading industries in Shanghai, has a scale of nearly one trillion yuan. In 2023, the industrial scale reached 933.732 billion yuan, an increase of 4.9%; Shanghai's biomedical industry chain is relatively complete, with many medical device enterprises and CRO, CMO and CSO enterprises. Therefore, Yuan Shuai believes that the Shanghai Municipal Government will set up a 10 billion yuan M&A fund for biomedical industry, which is expected to cultivate internationally competitive biomedical enterprises through mergers and acquisitions."At present, the Yangtze River Delta has many excellent semiconductor enterprises and research institutions, while Shanghai has many top semiconductor design enterprises at home and abroad, such as Quanlun Electronics, Lanqi Technology, Fudan Microelectronics, Weir, Aojie Technology and Ziguang Zhanrui. The establishment of industrial mergers and acquisitions will help to integrate industry resources, promote industry agglomeration, and form a group of design companies with strength and key core technologies. " Yuan Shuai said."The government's participation in M&A fund investment does not mean that the government will dominate the M&A business, but encourage market-oriented institutions and chain owners to lead the M&A business through the above-mentioned M&A fund or parent fund support." Bu Rixin believes.
It is worth mentioning that the Action Plan also mentioned that if the "chain owner" enterprises carry out mergers and acquisitions around the key links of the industrial chain through enterprise venture capital (CVC), the establishment of CVC funds will be included in the fast track. At the same time, government investment funds can participate in M&A fund investment through common shares, preferred shares and convertible bonds, and make appropriate profits.In its view, this 10 billion M&A fund is not only 10 billion yuan, but also a way for the government to encourage and guide M&A through the amplification of M&A funds. "In short, whether it is the M&A fund of the integrated circuit design industry or the M&A fund of biomedicine, the core purpose is to guide the orderly development of the industry and avoid the dependence on the IPO path, leading to excessive competition in the industry."In this regard, Bu Rixin believes that "chain owners" enterprises, as market-oriented institutions, set up CVC funds and will carry out horizontal and vertical mergers and acquisitions around the upstream and downstream of key industrial chains. "This kind of M&A will help chain-owner enterprises to expand their market scale and enhance their market competitiveness, which is the most in line with the logic of M&A and the basic logic of the Action Plan to encourage chain-owner enterprises to set up CVC funds."
