Revenue grew by 20.4% YoY, attributable net loss narrowed by 81.9% YoY, and ex-nonrecurring net loss narrowed by 69.4% YoY. The company continued to optimize operating efficiency and cost discipline, supporting quality and efficiency improvements, leading to improving revenue and significantly narrowed losses in 2025 and 1Q26, indicative of strengthening profitability. We are positive on continued earnings improvement, supported by expense control, cost reduction, and efficiency gains. Maintain OVERWEIGHT.
Soft reproductive revenue but steady onco/chronic growth
In 2025, reproductive health business revenue was RMB826mn (-28.1% YoY), and gross margin came in at 43.31%, down by 2.51pp YoY, mainly due to weaker market demand and the impact of volume-based procurement (VBP) policies. Both the sample volume and price of non-invasive prenatal testing declined YoY, causing NIPT revenue to fall by about 28% YoY. The company expanded its primary and tertiary prevention businesses. In 2025, revenue from the genetic disease testing series for assisted clinical diagnosis in the tertiary prevention business grew by about 16% YoY. In 2025, oncology and chronic disease prevention revenue was RMB511mn (-18.3% YoY), and gross margin was 34.06%, up by 0.34pp YoY. The revenue decline was mainly because certain livelihood projects were renewed and launched in 2H25. It was also affected by demand fluctuations from some corporate health screening clients, which weighed on the testing service business.
Robust infection control and precision med revenue
In 2025, infection control business revenue was RMB95mn (+30.3% YoY), and gross margin was 31.08%, up by 50.36pp YoY. Revenue from PTseq products based on targeted high-throughput sequencing technology doubled YoY. Multi-omics big data service revenue was RMB668mn (+0.1% YoY), and gross margin was 31.92%, down 4.01pp YoY. The company effectively overcame the impact of geopolitical disturbance by optimizing its business structure and focusing on core markets and high-value customers. Precision medicine business revenue was RMB1.6bn (+19.5% YoY), and gross margin was 39.10%, down by 9.35pp YoY. BGI Genomics has continued to expand its overseas precision medicine business. Revenue in key regions such as Southeast Asia grew steadily YoY, while business expansion in emerging markets such as Latin America and South Asia delivered exceptional results, notably a doubling of revenue.
Profitability recovery on track; maintain OVERWEIGHT
Based on the 2025 and 1Q26 results, and considering the impact of domestic VBP and medical insurance cost control, we revise down our revenue and gross margin expectations for reproductive health and precision medicine. We forecast 2026, 2027, and 2028 revenue of RMB3.9bn, RMB4.1bn, and RMB4.5bn, down by 3% and 7% versus our previous 2026 and 2027 forecasts. We forecast attributable NP of -RMB1mn, RMB67mn, and RMB140mn, down by 101% and 31% versus our previous 2026 and 2027 forecasts. Considering the company's continued focus on core businesses and sustained profitability improvement through quality and efficiency gains, we apply a valuation multiple of 5.2x 2026E PS, a premium to the average of 4.4x 2026E PS for peers based on Wind consensus estimates. Our target price arrives at RMB48.30 (previously RMB57.72, on 6.7x 2025E PS).
Risks: Larger-than-expected price cuts for VBP products, slower-than-expected testing volume growth.
