Management Comment

Dr。 Ge Li, Chairman and CEO of WuXi AppTec, said, “As part of our commitment to serving our customers better, we have completed changes to the organization of our business segments in the third quarter 2021。 We have integrated our capabilities to form three new business divisions – WuXi Chemistry, WuXi Biology, and WuXi Testing – which now possess the end-to-end capabilities needed to provide integrated services to customers。 Along with WuXi ATU and WuXi DDSU, we now have five integrated platforms。”

“Dr。 Minzhang Chen leads the WuXi Chemistry segment, which now encompasses all chemistry services, including research, development and commercial manufacturing under one roof。 This is our new business model that we have named CRDMO (Contract Research, Development and Manufacturing Organization)。 Executing our strategy of ‘follow-the-molecule,’ we believe it will provide more integrated service offerings to our customers, spanning from discovery and process development to commercial manufacturing, which will in turn enhance funnel flow and realize synergies across our end-to-end platform。 WuXi Chemistry performed very well in the first nine months of 2021, with revenue growth of 47。5% YoY。”

“Dr。 Steve Yang leads our WuXi Testing and WuXi Biology segments。 WuXi Testing now integrates our drug development testing services (DMPK, Toxicology, Bioanalytical) and clinical trial services (clinical CRO and SMO) to provide customers with seamless experience to accelerate project and pipeline progression。 WuXi Biology provides a full spectrum of discovery biology enabling service and collaborates with WuXi Chemistry to support integrated small molecule drug discovery。 WuXi Testing and WuXi Biology both performed well in the first nine months of 2021, with revenue growth of 44。1% and 33。2% respectively。”

Dr。 Ge Li concluded, “In the third quarter of 2021, we began to experience apparent results of our business segment realignment come to bear in the form of enhanced synergies, increased cross-selling, and deeper customer penetration。 The power of our unique and differentiated CRDMO and CTDMO end-to-end business models lay the foundation for reliable and continued long-term growth。 Concurrently, the fundamentals of our business and its future outlook both remain very strong。 Looking ahead, we will further increase investment in our R&D services in both capacity and capabilities, particularly in new modalities。 We are confident that this will better enable our customers to bring innovative medicines to patients in need – realizing our vision that ‘every drug can be made and every disease can be treated。”
