Key Factors Affecting Our Results of Operation

Working capital required to implement our business plan will most likely be provided by funds obtained through offerings of our equity, debt, debt-linked securities, and/or equity-linked securities, and revenues generated by us. No assurance can be given that we will have revenues sufficient to support and sustain our operations or that we would be able to obtain equity/debt financing in the current economic environment. If we do not have sufficient working capital and are unable to generate sufficient revenues or raise additional funds, we may delay the completion of or significantly reduce the scope of our current business plan; delay some of our development and clinical or marketing efforts; postpone the hiring of new personnel; or, under certain dire financial circumstances, substantially curtail or cease our operations.

 

Our past operating results are not an accurate indication of the lines of business we are principally engaged in currently. Thus, you should consider our future prospects in light of the risks and uncertainties experienced by early-stage companies in evolving markets rather than typical companies of our age. Some of these risks and uncertainties relate to our ability to:

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended September 30, 2020 Compared to September 30, 2019

1011

Revenues 

 

We generated revenues primarily from manufacture and sales of four types of traditional Chinese medicine pieces (the “TCMP”) products: Advanced TCMP, Fine TCMP, Regular TCMP, and TCM Homologous Supplements (“TCMHS”) products. TCMHS is a classification of health-supporting food used traditionally in China as TCM but are also consumed as food, which has been developed and commercialized in April 2019. As compared with the six months ended September 30, 2020, our total revenues increased by $645,354, or 20% for the six months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to the increase in sales of Advanced TCMP products and TCMHS products and partly offset by the decrease in the sales of Fine TCMP products and Regular TCMP products.

 

The following table sets forth the breakdown of revenues by categories for the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 presented:

12

Advanced TCMP

 

Advanced TCMP is comprised of nine Directly Oral TCMP products (the “Directly-Oral-TCMP”) and nine After-soaking-oral TCMP products (the “After-Soaking-Oral-TCMP”). Both Directly Oral TCMP and After-soaking-oral TCMP are new types of advanced TCMP.

 

Revenue from advanced TCMP accounted for 44% and 34% of revenue recognized during the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As compared with the six months ended September 30, 2019, our revenue generated from advanced TCMP increased by $596,172, or 54% for the six months ended September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily due to the company’s plan to shift from low margin Regular TCMPs and to focus more on the business of high margin Fine and Advanced TCMPs.

 

Fine TCMP

 

We currently produce over 15 fine TCMP products for drug stores and hospitals. Our fine TCMP products are manufactured manually from only high-quality authentic ingredients derived from their region of origin.

 

Revenue from fine TCMP accounted for 6% and 20% of revenue recognized during the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. As compared with the six months ended September 30, 2019, our revenue from generated from fine TCMP decreased by $419,983, or 64% for the six months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily attributable to the effect of COVID-19 outbreak in China on the operation of pharmaceutical stores, which were the main sale channel for fine TCMP products.

Regular TCMP

 

We currently manufacture 430 regular TCMP products listed on China Pharmacopoeia (version 2015) Part I for hospitals and drug store in treatment of various diseases or serving as dietary supplements.

 

Revenue from regular TCMP accounted for 21% and 40% of revenue recognized during the six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Revenue from regular TCMP products decreased by $479,347, or 37%, to $818,627 for the six months ended September 30, 2020 from $1,297,974 for the six months ended September 30, 2019. Decrease in revenue from Regular TCMP products is consistent with the effect of the effect of COVID-19 outbreak in China and the company’s plan to shift from low margin Regular TCMPs and to focus more on the business of high margin Fine and Advanced TCMPs.

 

TCMHS Solid Beverages

 

Four solid beverage products as part of the Company’s TCMHS products were developed and commercially launched in April 2019 and generated a revenue of $1,108,883 and $160,371 for the six months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, representing an increase of $948,512.

 

Gross Profit

 

Cost of revenues primarily include cost of materials, direct labors, overhead, and other related incidental expenses that are directly attributable to the Company’s principal operations. Total cost of revenue decreased by $ 336,197, or 24%, to $1,039,565 for the six months ended September 30, 2020 from $1,375,762 for the six months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease of cost of revenues was mainly due to the decrease of the sales of our products.

 

Gross profit increased by $ 981,551, or 53%, to $2,820,936 for the six months ended September 30, 2020 from $1,839,385 for the six months ended September 30, 2019. Gross margin was 73.1% for the six months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 57.2% for the six months ended September 30, 2019. The increase in gross margin was mainly due to the increase of gross margin of TCMHS products and Regular TCMP products and offset by the decrease of gross margin of Fine TCMP products.

 

Operating income

 

Selling expenses primarily consisted of sales staff payroll and welfare expenses, travelling expenses, advertisement expenses, distribution expenses. Selling expenses decrease from $774,253 for the six months ended September 30, 2019 to $704,558 for the six months ended September 30, 2020, representing a decrease of $69,695, or 9%.

The decreases in selling expenses and general and administrative expenses were mainly due to the Company’s efforts in cost control.
