Remarks: 1. Basis of preparation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). These financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention, except that the available-for-sale investments are shown at fair value. The results are audited and have also been reviewed by the Audit Committee. 2. Financial review The Groupˇ¦s consolidated turnover for the year ended 31 December 2004 amounted to RMB10,567,000, compared to RMB8,131,000 for the previous year. During the year under review, RMB4,200,000(or 40% of the total turnover) was derived from the income of technology transfer, and the rest of approximately RMB6,367,000 (or 60% of the total turnover) came from the sale of diagnostic products and the provision of the ancillary services. In contrast, the total turnover for the year 2003 was generated from the sale of diagnostic products. In comparison to RMB6,155,000 for the same period last year, the cost of sales for the year ended 31 December 2004 was RMB8,325,000, raised by 35% from that of last year. This has been growing in line with the enhancing revenues. Operating loss for the year ended 31 December 2004 was approximately RMB24,446,000, whereas the same figure for last year was RMB20,206,000. Several factors contributed to the exacerbated situation. Firstly, the interest income as reflected in other revenues was cut by half for the reason that large sums of capital has been invested in R&D, resulting in a reduction of cash deposited in banks. Secondly, the distribution costs increased by 14%, due to the fact mentioned above, that the Group employed more resources on the launch of new products. Thirdly, the Group purchased a technology used in developing and manufacturing of the new product during the year, and amortization of this technology know-how boosted administrative expenses by 18% over last financial year. And lastly, the excessive other operating expenses were caused by a provision for impairment of a technology Oxymatrine of RMB1,000,000, which was the impairment loss provided for by the management from a cautious perspective, taking into account the uncertainty of the projectˇ¦s future development. 3. Loss per share The calculation of the loss per share for the year ended 31 December 2004 was based on the loss of approximately RMB24,901,000 and the total shares of 710,000,000 as at 31 December 2004. The calculation of the loss per share for the year ended 31 December 2003 was based on the loss of RMB18,347,000 and the total shares of 710,000,000 as at 31 December 2003. Diluted loss per share has not been calculated for the year ended 31 December 2004 and year ended 31 December 2003 respectively as there was no dilutive potential ordinary share during those periods. |
