SHANGHAI Pharmaceutical will pay 444 million yuan (US$70.5 million) to raise its stake in Chiatai Qingchunbao Pharmaceutical Co Ltd as it seeks a broader product portfolio.
The company, listed in Shanghai and Hong Kong, will invest for a 20 percent stake in Chiatai Qingchunbao, raising its holding in the regional drug maker to 75 percent, it said in a statement yesterday.
The company also hopes to boost its profitability by increasing its stake in Chiatai Qingchunbao which specializes in cardiovascular medicines. Last year Chiatai Qingchunbao posted a profit of 185 million yuan on a revenue of 1.08 billion yuan.
Shanghai Pharma debuted on the Hong Kong stock market in May 2011 after raising HK$16 billion (US$2.06 billion) and has been eyeing merger and acquisition opportunities.
Shanghai Pharma acquired 100 percent of Changzhou Kony Pharma in 2012 to boost its manufacturing capability of special active pharmaceutical ingredients.
