At JPM Healthcare Conference, WuXi AppTec Shares Its Long-Term View on Enabling Innovation
At the start of the new year, global attention once again turned to San Francisco as the annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference convened as scheduled. Industry leaders from around the world gathered to exchange views on emerging trends, innovation dynamics, and long-term opportunities in the healthcare industry.
As an enabler of global innovation and contributor to the healthcare industry, WuXi AppTec was invited to participate in this year’s conference. On January 14 (local time), Dr. Minzhang Chen, Co-CEO of WuXi AppTec, delivered a keynote speech, sharing perspectives on industry challenges, innovation collaboration, and the company’s long-term strategy.
In the presentation, Dr. Chen emphasized that WuXi AppTec remains firmly committed to enabling innovation—doing the right thing and doing it right. Regardless of changes in the external environment, the company will stay focused on the CRDMO strategy, strive for excellent execution, and support customers in addressing unmet medical needs, creating long-term value for the industry, customers, and patients worldwide.
Steadfast in Belief, Relentless in Enabling
The healthcare industry stands at a crossroads of opportunity and challenge. Continuous technological advances and scientific breakthroughs are expanding the boundaries of human health and longevity. At the same time, drug development remains constrained by long timelines, high costs, low success rates, and significant unmet medical needs.
Since its founding, WuXi AppTec has been dedicated to addressing these challenges through an integrated CRDMO business model, helping customers improve R&D productivity and accelerate development timelines.
Today, WuXi AppTec works alongside thousands of customers in delivering high-quality and efficient services. From large pharmaceutical companies optimizing pipelines to biotech innovators advancing candidates toward critical milestones, WuXi AppTec serves as a long-term and trusted partner.
Quality remains the foundation of trust. WuXi AppTec adheres rigorously to global quality standards and treats intellectual property as a shared lifeline with customers. In 2025, the company completed 741 quality audits conducted by global customers and regulatory authorities, as well as 60 information security audits conducted by customers — equivalent to more than two quality audits per day and more than one information security audit per week. All audits achieved a 100% pass rate, with zero critical findings, underscoring the robustness and reliability of WuXi AppTec’s quality system.
Over its 25-year history, WuXi AppTec has consistently partnered with customers as an enabler, staying focused on doing the right thing for patients. This is not only a strategic choice, but a long-term commitment. As Dr. Chen emphasized:
“For 25 years, we have remained putting the customer first. Every capability we build and every solution we deliver is designed to enable innovation and help breakthrough therapies reach patients around the world faster.”
Focusing on the CRDMO Model with Stronger Synergy
From Research (R) and Development (D) to Manufacturing (M), WuXi AppTec’s integrated CRDMO platform supports every stage of the drug R&D lifecycle. This end-to-end platform brings together three core business segments — WuXi Chemistry, WuXi Biology, and WuXi Testing — working in synergy to help customers translate scientific discoveries into real-world therapies.
Enablement begins at the integrated research platform (R), which serves as a key entry point for the CRDMO model by sourcing innovation and identifying emerging scientific trends. Over the past year alone, the research platform contributed nearly 65% of WuXi AppTec’s new customers. Over the past 15 years, this platform has supported more than 9,000 customers worldwide.
Today, customers are more inclined to adopt multiple services on the integrated research platform. Data show that approximately 30% of IND projects use both early drug discovery and preclinical testing services, helping shorten development timelines and advance project delivery.
At the core of the CRDMO model is the strategy of “following the science, following the customer, and following the molecule,” enabling pipelines to progress from early to late stages on the platform while capturing high-quality molecules. This pathway is vividly illustrated by the small-molecule pipeline funnel within WuXi AppTec’s chemistry business.
In terms of scale, WuXi AppTec’s CRDMO pipeline remains robust across both early and late stages. As of the end of September 2025, over the past 12 months, WuXi AppTec’s small-molecule business synthesized and delivered more than 430,000 compounds to customers at the R stage, while the CDMO pipeline reached over 3,400 projects.
In terms of conversion efficiency, high-quality pipelines continue to advance through the funnel. In the first three quarters of 2025, 250 of the 621 newly added molecules in the D&M pipeline originated from the R stage. Among the 80 commercialized drugs currently in the pipeline, the majority resulted from internal R-to-D-to-M conversion thanks to the CRDMO model.
In terms of conversion quality, high-value late-stage projects are expanding rapidly. In the first three quarters of 2025, the number of late-stage commercial and Phase III projects reached 167, representing a 56% increase from 107 in 2022. Over the same period, revenue from these molecules surged by more than 150%. This reflects not only the increased molecule complexity and quality, but also the strengthened partnership between WuXi AppTec and its customers.
Capturing Unmet Needs and Embracing Every Innovation Wave
WuXi AppTec’s strong early-stage R capabilities not only provide sustained momentum for downstream businesses but also allow the company to stay at the forefront of scientific progress, identify new modality trends, and proactively build new capabilities to meet future customer needs.
In the high-profile GLP-1 field, industry reports forecast that global GLP-1 drug sales will reach USD 145 billion by 2030, nearly three times the level in 2024. WuXi AppTec is deeply involved in this area, with pipeline growth exceeding the industry average. Dr. Chen disclosed that the GLP-1 pipeline on the WuXi AppTec platform has expanded to 24 projects, including 15 in Phase II and Phase III clinical development.
Specifically, among global clinical-stage GLP-1 candidates, WuXi AppTec supports 12 of 36 small molecule drugs and 11 of 56 peptide drugs. WuXi AppTec also supports one out of the seven commercialized GLP-1 drugs.
WuXi AppTec has now become a major global service platform for peptide drugs, with solid-phase peptide synthesis reactor capacity exceeding 100,000 liters to support customers’ growing needs. As capacity ramps up quarter by quarter, the company’s TIDES business (peptides and oligonucleotides CRDMO) has delivered strong growth, with revenue in 2025 expected to increase by more than 90% year over year.
This represents only part of how WuXi AppTec’s integrated CRDMO platform captures new modality opportunities. Through early identification of innovation trends at the R stage and forward-looking capability and capacity expansion across D&M, the CRDMO model will continue to address unmet customer needs and grow in every wave of innovation.
Doing the Right Thing, Doing It Right
Benefiting from the scale and operating efficiency of its CRDMO platform, WuXi AppTec has demonstrated strong financial resilience amid industry volatility. According to the company’s profit alert for the full year of 2025, performance is expected to once again exceed expectations and reach new records. Revenue from Continuing Operations is projected to grow 21.4% year over year to RMB 45.46 billion, while adjusted non-IFRS net profit is expected to reach approximately RMB 14.96 billion, representing a year-over-year increase of approximately 41.3%.
With strong growth in both revenue and profit, free cash flow in 2025 is expected to reach a record high. Robust cash generation will continue to be reinvested to accelerate global capability and capacity building, forming a positive cycle of investment and returns. Full-year D&M capital expenditure is expected to remain in the range of RMB 5.5-6.0 billion.
Strong performance is being shared with a broader group of stakeholders. Since 2020, WuXi AppTec’s revenue and adjusted non-IFRS net profit attributable to shareholders have achieved compound annual growth rates exceeding 20% and 30%, respectively. Basic Earnings per Share for the full year of 2025 continues to improve, expected to reach approximately RMB 6.70, nearly a tenfold increase since IPO.
In 2025, the company completed cash dividends and share buybacks for cancellation totaling nearly RMB 7.0 billion, representing more than 70% of its 2024 net profit attributable to shareholders. Over the past seven years, cumulative dividends and share buybacks have exceeded RMB 20.0 billion, accounting for more than 40% of cumulative net profit since IPO.
Talent is also critical to long-term development. Under the Incentive Trust Plan approved at last year’s shareholder meeting, if 2025 revenue reaches RMB 42.0 billion, up to HKD 1.5 billion H-shares will be granted, with an additional HKD 1.0 billion granted if revenue reaches RMB 43.0 billion and above. As 2025 performance has exceeded expectations, HKD 2.5 billion in H-share equity incentives will be used to motivate and retain core talent for long-term sustainable growth.
Dr. Chen concluded, “WuXi AppTec’s strategic focus is firmly on the CRDMO model — delivering outstanding services to customers and benefits to patients worldwide. Looking ahead, we will continue to strengthen our global capabilities and capacities, seize opportunities in new modalities, and further enhance operational efficiency. No matter how the external environment evolves, WuXi AppTec will remain a steadfast enabler, stay true to doing the right thing and doing it right, and work with global partners to realize our shared vision that ‘every drug can be made, and every disease can be treated.’”
