Chairman’s Statement Dear Shareholders and stakeholders, I couldn’t be more grateful and excited to still have this moment to tell a story of us, a company that has been working hard in vaccine area for over 10 years and was positioned under the spotlight of pandemic fight. Flashback to early 2020 when the outbreak was reported days before the Spring Festival. That’s the beginning of our journey. From the day we officially launched the COVID-19 vaccine project to the debut of the Recombinant Novel Coronavirus Vaccine (Adenovirus Type 5 Vector), or the Ad5-nCoV, we created a 55-day miracle with no compromise to the safety and quality. It was the first of its kind made it to the clinical trial stage worldwide as well as the first candidate that published its phase I and II clinical trial results on Lancet. With the support of those positive data, we move forward to the multi-center phase III clinical trial in five countries. It is the first large-scale clinical study we’ve ever done. Confronted with numerous unpredictable challenges, we never backed down. We kept the study going while strictly followed the scientific rules to ensure the integrity and objectiveness of the data. Of course, the interim data of Ad5-nCoV was absolutely a huge reward to our efforts. It is demonstrated that our one- shot COVID-19 vaccine could be the ideal option to achieve mass immune protection in a timely manner by significantly shortening the vaccination cycle and facilitate the work of healthcare workers. We always have faith in our product, so does the authorities in many countries. Currently, we obtained the emergency use authorization for Ad5-nCoV in Mexico, Pakistan, Hungary and Chile. And it was conditionally approved in China. Meanwhile, we are in ongoing discussions with other potential collaborators worldwide. Mexico is the first country that placed the order of the Ad5-nCoV vaccine. Living in a year of pandemic, COVID-19 vaccine is not our only achievement. We have successfully partnered with Pfizer to promote our MCV4. We continuously make progress in the NDA review for our MCV4 and MCV2 candidates, and clinical study of our PCV13i, PBPV and DTcP vaccine candidates. Last but not the least, we have successfully listed on the Sci-Tech Innovation Board (STAR Market) of the Shanghai Stock Exchange, making CanSinoBIO the first “A+H” dual listing vaccine company. As we are striding forward to the year of 2021, a year full of challenges and opportunities, we are committed to continuously investing and expanding our capacity to fulfill the manufacturing needs and ensure the equal access to our quality vaccine products and contribute to the development of public health. With an aim to build our brands and reputation in the domestic and overseas market, we will continue to focus on R&D, manufacture and commercialization for our vaccine candidates, and promote collaboration with world-class business partners. I would like to take this chance to thank our Shareholders and other stakeholders for your continuous support. We look forward to grow and to share with all of you in the upcoming adventure. Together, we can confront the public health challenge posed by the pandemic and help people pursue a better life. Dr. Xuefeng YU Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Annual Report 2020 05 Management Discussion and Analysis OVERVIEW CanSinoBIO’s mission is to develop, manufacture and commercialize high quality, innovative and affordable vaccines. Our mission is being fulfilled by an accomplished team of founders and senior management – world-class scientists with a record of leading the development of innovative international vaccines at global pharmaceutical companies. Other management members are also vaccine industry veterans from leading multi-national and domestic biologics companies. Our vaccine pipeline, which is strategically designed to address the vast and underserved market worldwide, can be summarized into three categories: (i) globally innovative vaccines to serve the unmet medical needs worldwide (such as our Ad5-nCoV, Ad5-EBOV, our TB Booster candidate and our PBPV candidate); (ii) potential first-in-class vaccines in China developed to replace the current primary vaccines with higher-quality world-class vaccines (such as our MCV4 candidate and DTcP vaccine candidates); and (iii) potential best-in-class vaccines in China developed to compete with the imported products in the PRC market (such as our PCV13i candidate). We are developing 16 vaccine candidates for 13 disease areas. In February 2021, our Ad5-nCoV has been granted emergency use authorization by the Federal Commission for Protection against Sanitary Risks of Mexico and the Drug Regulatory Authority of Pakistan, and has been granted the conditional marketing authorization by the NMPA in mainland China. In March 2021, our Ad5-nCoV has been granted emergency use authorization by the Hungarian National Institute of Pharmacy and Nutrition (OGYÉI). In April 2021, our Ad5-nCoV has been granted emergency use authorization by the Instituto de Salud Pública de Chile (ISP).
