Leslie Richardson
Management
Good morning ladies and gentlemen. My name is Leslie Richardson from CCG Elite, Investor Relations. And now I would like to welcome you to China Pharma Holdings fourth quarter and year-end 2006 conference call. Joining us today from China are China Pharma's President and CEO, Ms. Zhilin Li and Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Xinhua Wu. Joining us from San Diego is Vice President of Strategic Planning and Business Development, Donald Xu. Donald will present the prepared remarks for Ms. Li and Mr. Wu. Michelle Fang is also joining us from CCG Elite's Hong Kong office and will provide translation for the question-and-answer period, following the prepared remarks for the quarter. I would like to remind our listeners that in this call management's prepared remarks contain forward-looking statements, which are subject to risks and uncertainties, and management may make additional forward-looking statements in response to your questions. Therefore, the company claims the protection of the Safe Harbor for forward-looking statements that is contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ from those discussed today, due to such risks including, but not limited to, unanticipated changes in product demand, increased competition, failure to obtain or maintain intellectual property protection, downturns in the Chinese economy, uncompetitive levels of research and development, failure to obtain regulatory approvals, and other risk factors detailed from time to time in the company's future filings and filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, although the company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. In addition, any projections as to the company's future performance represent management's estimates as of today, March 29, 2007. China Pharma assumes no obligation to update these projections in the future, as market conditions change. For those of you unable to listen to the entire call at this time, a recording will be available via webcast on China Pharma's website for 90 days. Also, an audio replay of this call will be available for seven days. Information about the webcast audio replay is available in the press release issued earlier today. And with that, I'd now turn the call over to Donald Xu, Vice President of Strategic Planning and Business Development, who will present the management discussion section on behalf of China Pharma's President and CEO, Ms. Zhilin Li.
