Zhongke Runda carries the mission to become the benchmark for precise medical examination centers in Shanghai and marks the milestone of creating a leading integrated healthcare services platform for the Group.

In light of the progressive reform of the medical and healthcare industry in China, the categorized medical system and centralized testing of regionalized healthcare have become the major driving forces, propelling the demand for independent third-party clinical laboratories and market development. Therefore, the Group allied with Chinese Academy of Sciences and Runda Medical to launch Zhongke Runda, an independent third-party clinical laboratory, in order to seize the opportunity and fill gaps in the market. Zhongke Runda is located in the Zhejiang National Innovation Demonstration Zone, Hongkou, Shanghai and imports the international standard system with high quality, adopting the most advancing LIMS system in the world and co-operates with elites in the medical testing field. Facilitated with the leading automated testing equipment, Zhongke Runda is enabled to accumulate massive sample and clinical information on precise medical testing. Embroidered with these advantages, Zhongke Runda will strive to earn clinical and scientific research projects and provide healthcare institutions of each level with services such as medical examination, pathology testing and research. Together with cloud data management technology, Zhongke Runda will be able to offer a platform of standardized data and contribute towards the healthcare management.

On the other hand, Zhongke Runda and Roche Diagnostics co-operated and built three "Roche Model Lab". Adopting equipment with leading testing technology and advanced management concepts for laboratories, they will jointly build world's leading medical examination laboratories, featuring high quality and automation. They are also the first healthcare institution in Shanghai to employ equipment for after-treatment

Regarding the co-operation, Mr. Wong Fatt Heng, General Manager of Roche Diagnostic (China), commented, "Roche Diagnostics has always valued the co-operation with independent third-party clinical laboratories in China. We wish to enhance the testing quality and efficiency of laboratories while bringing the best diagnostic technology and testing projects with valuable clinical values to China. It is also our goal to expand the coverage to more mid-to-small sized and community hospitals and serve patients with individualized healthcare management. Today, we are very delighted to collaboratively build three "Roche Model Lab" with Zhongke Runda, featuring functions such as biochemical immunoassay, molecular testing and pathology. This collaboration will allow us to provide the market with more comprehensive solutions for laboratories and support the elevation of general standard of the Chinese laboratories, as well as speeding up its convergence with the world."

Mr. James Hartono, the Chairman of Yestar Healthcare, stated, "Being one of the leading distributors of the high margin consumables and equipment in China, Yestar has been strengthening its current foundation of In-Vitro Diagnostic segment while continuously exploring new businesses that form synergies with its diagnostic segment. According to Industry Whitepaper and analyst report, IMS analysis, Industry Experts Interview, China Independent Clinical Laboratory (ICL) market forecast will keep its 22% CARG growth from Year 2015 to Year 2025, reaching RMB 74 billion, due to further implementation of the Chinese goverment's medical reforms initiatives.
