"We are grateful to Huagai Capital and other investors for their recognition of our strategy to develop cutting-edge therapies, our innovative discovery platform, and our differentiated pipeline in both small molecules and biologics. We believe that it is our unique strategy, platform and pipeline that can not only minimize but may even eliminate the uncertainties induced by the market fluctuations or investment cycles.
