China Pharma Holdings, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2006 Results

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 14 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- China Pharma Holdings, Inc. ("China Pharma") today announced its operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2006.

Financial results in this press release for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2005 reflect results of the China Pharma's predecessor company, Onny Investment Limited ("Onny"). On June 16, 2005, Onny acquired Hainan Helpson Medical & Biotechnology Co., Ltd. ("Helpson"), which is the main operating unit of China Pharma. Thus, operating results for 2005 do not include Helpson's full results for the same period, and are therefore not directly comparable to Q2 2006 results. Therefore, 2005 pro forma results and a 2005 pro forma consolidated statement of operations are provided for year-over-year comparison purposes that may be useful to investors in evaluating the Company's business performance. Such pro forma comparisons are not intended to reflect U.S. GAAP and are provided for informational purposes only.

Total revenues for the second quarter of 2006 were $4.0 million, up from $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2005, but down by 16% from the $4.7 million reported in the first quarter of 2006. On a pro forma basis, Q2 total revenues increased by 39% compared to $2.9 million for the same period in 2005. Operating income for the quarter was $1.4 million as compared to $0.1 million for the same period last year, and $1.9 million in the first quarter of 2006. Net income for the second quarter of 2006 was $1.8 million, or $0.05 per share, up from $1.6 million in the first quarter, or $0.05 per share. Net income for the same period last year was $0.1 million, or $1.23 per share. Pro forma net income for Q2 2005 was $0.7 million, or $8.12 per share. Second quarter 2006 net income benefited from a bad debt recovery of $0.6 million. Earnings per share in fiscal 2006 reflect an increase in China Pharma's average weighted shares outstanding from 85,112 shares in the second quarter of 2005 to 34.7 million shares in the second quarter of 2006.

Commenting on the second quarter results, China Pharma's President and CEO, Zhi-Lin Li, said "We are very pleased to report positive results for the second quarter of 2006, with very dramatic year-over-year top-line growth combined with excellent profitability. Given the seasonal nature of demand for many of our drugs second quarter sales were below very strong prior quarter, as expected. Sales growth was driven by our recent successful product launches such as Hepatocyte Growth-promoting Factor, PusenOK, and Gastrodin. We believe that results for the first half of 2006 confirm the strength of our low cost, high margin business model and are committed to bring a growing portfolio of drugs to market that address significant patient populations in China."

Gross profit for the quarter was $1.9 million, compared to $2.2 million last quarter and $0.2 million in the same period in 2005. Gross margin for the second quarter was unchanged at 47% compared to last quarter, and up from 34% in the second quarter in 2005. On a pro forma basis, Q2 2005 gross profit was $1.0 million, or 35% of sales.

Selling expenses in the second quarter of 2006 were $0.08 million, compared to $0.09 million for the first quarter and $0.004 million for the same period last year. General and administrative expenses for Q2 of 2006 were $0.4 million, up from $0.3 million last quarter, and $0.02 million in Q2 of 2005. The increase in general and administrative expenses was driven mainly by costs associated with being a public company, and investments made in approximately 50 new hires in the second quarter.

Six Months Results

Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2006 were $8.7 million, up from $0.5 million for the same period last year, and an increase of 50% from pro forma revenues of $5.8 million for the first half of 2005. Net income for the first half of 2006 was $3.4 million, versus $0.1 million for the first half of 2005, and up by 94% from pro forma net income of $1.8 million for the first half of 2005. Gross profit and gross margin were $4.1 million and 47%, respectively for the first half of 2006, compared to $0.2 million and 34% for the same period in 2005. On a pro forma basis, gross profit was $2.2 million, or 38% of sales, for the first half of 2005. Operating income was $3.2 million, compared to $0.1 million last year. Earnings per share were $0.10, versus $1.23 for the first six months in 2005.

Financial Condition

As of June 30, 2006, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $0.2 million, versus $0.5 million as of December 31, 2005. Working capital totaled $12.3 million as of June 30, 2006, reflecting a current ratio of 2.9 to 1. The Company recently entered into a new $2 million dollar credit facility which will provide the flexibility to finance its anticipated growth.

Days sales outstanding, or DSOs, were 209 for the second quarter of 2006. Total debt was $6.3 million and total shareholders' equity totaled $15.2 million. Ms. Li added, "While our receivables days are within industry norms in China for drugs distributed through hospitals, we hope to improve our working capital efficiency in the second half of 2006. We are also very pleased with the results of recent improvements to our controls and sales incentives, which resulted in $628,000 in bad debt recovery during the second quarter."

Operating cash flow was positive in the second quarter of 2006, at $0.4 million.

Business Outlook

Ms. Li added, "For the second half of the year, we expect continued growth driven by our successful new product launches, expansion of our sales and distribution network, and what is typically seasonally stronger ordering patterns. With our recent product approvals for Ozagrel, Propylgallate, and Alginic Sodium Diester, we are maintaining our focus on large and growing patient populations, like those for stroke, heart attack, and hepatitis, which should translate into greater market share."

For fiscal 2006, China Pharma expects that revenues will be approximately $20 million and net income will be approximately $8 million. Ms. Li commented, "Looking ahead, our strategy is to continue to build on our prescription drug pipeline as well as our over-the-counter and traditional Chinese medicine products."
