[Foreign Language]

Thank you, Diana, and good morning, everyone. I would like to thank each of you for joining us today and for your continued support of China Pharma. It is the company’s top priority to actively and steadily increase sales and it is encouraging to see increased revenue in this quarter. Management will continue to vigorously promote sales through active participation in recent provincial market openings to receive new drug tender offers and through further penetration into the market. The ongoing generic drug consistency evaluations and reform of China’s drug production registration and review policies will continue to have a significant impact on the current performance and future development of Chinese pharmaceutical manufacturers, including us, and may gradually change business patterns of the industry. We will continue to actively adapt to state policy guidance and further evaluate market conditions for our current existing products, pipeline products, and competition in the market in order to optimize our development strategy. I will now read the rest of Ms. Li’s prepared remarks in English. Now I would like to review our second quarter 2018 financial results and the balance sheet information. Revenue increased by 8.8% to $3.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, as compared to $3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. This increase was mainly due to market volatility. Gross profit was $0.6 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. Our gross profit margin in the three months ended June 30, 2018 was 18.3% compared to 22.2% in the same period last year. This decrease was primarily due to an increase in sales of lower margin products during this period compared to the sales performance in the same period last year. Our selling expenses for the three months ended June…

Certainly, sir. Ladies and gentlemen, we will now begin the question-and-answer session. [Operator Instructions].

Thank you, sir. Ladies and gentlemen, that does conclude our conference for today. Thank you for participating. You may disconnect your phone lines now.
