I asked the obvious….. that’s why I think a JV might be brewing
Current value (May 2026): ~£28–32m market cap
📈 If China health claim APPROVED:
Provexis value jumps to: £120m → £220m+Stock price: ~4x → 7x higher
Here is the exact breakdown, based on confirmed commercial terms and market forecasts:
✅ 1. Revenue from China only
Agreement: Exclusive supply + royalties with BYHEALTH (China’s #2 supplement firm, £2bn market cap)
Terms: Provexis sells ingredient to BYHEALTH at fixed margin (~40–50% gross), plus low‑single‑digit royalty on end‑product sales
Sales forecast:
Year 1–2: ¥300–500m RMB retail sales → Provexis revenue: £8–14m/year
Year 3–5: ¥800m–1.2bn RMB → Provexis revenue: £22–32m/year
That’s 15–25x current total revenue (£1.3m/year now)
✅ 2. Valuation math (standard for ingredient/healthtech)
Current: valued at ~22× revenue (loss‑making, pre‑revenue China) → £30m
Post‑approval:
Immediately re‑rates to 8–12× forward revenue + growth premium
China alone = £120–160m value
Plus: global licensing, new customers, DSM partnership, new health claims → adds £40–60m extra
Total fair value: £160–220m
✅ 3. Share price impact
Current share price: ~1.1–1.2p
Post‑approval: 5p → 8p+
Fully de‑rised, established: 10p+
📌 Summary
Conservative: £120m (4× current)
Base case: £170–190m (6×)
Upside: £220m+ (7×+)
