China Jo-Jo Drugstores Reports Fiscal 2018 First Quarter Results

HANGZHOU, China, Aug. 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- China Jo-Jo Drugstores, Inc. (NASDAQ: CJJD, "China Jo-Jo" or "the Company") today announced financial results for its first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2017.

FY 2018 First Quarter Highlights:

  • Revenue increased to $21.7 million from $20.9 million a year ago
  • Wholesale revenue increased by $2,357,715 or 74.7% year-over-year
  • Gross profit was $4.2 million with gross margin of 19.3% compared to $4.5 million and 21.4% a year ago
  • GAAP net loss was $1.4 million or $0.06 per diluted share compared to net income of $131,153 or $0.01 per diluted share a year ago

China Jo-Jo's Chairman and CEO, Mr. Liu Lei commented, "We continued to expand our retail pharmacies footprint as we believe this is the right strategy to benefit from the ongoing medical reform in China diverting drug sales from public hospitals to other retail outlets. We grew our retail drugstores to 71 during the quarter and stabilized our retail drugstores sales through promotional campaigns and direct-to-patient opportunities. We continued to seek alternative referral arrangement with providers of Pharmacy Benefit Management ("PBM") and implement strategies to increase our online pharmacy sales."

Net revenues for the first fiscal quarter were $21.7 million compared to $20.9 million in the same quarter a year ago, an increase of $734,453 or 3.5%. Retail drugstores sales were $13.0 million, an increase of 2.5% compared to the prior year period. The increase in retail drugstore sales was primarily due to promotional campaigns, incremental DTP (Direct-to-Patient) business benefiting from ongoing hospital reforms, and growing demand for healthcare products from local consumers. The pharmacy store count increased to 71 as of June 30, 2017, compared to 61 stores a year ago.

Online pharmacy sales for the quarter were $3.1 million compared to $5.1 million in the same quarter a year ago, a decrease of $1.9 million or 38.2%. The decrease was primarily the result of a decline in business referred from Yikatong, a popular pharmacy and health insurance benefit card run by a PBM provider in China, and a decline in sales made via various e-commerce platforms during the quarter. The Company is proactively seeking referral arrangements with alternative providers of PBM.

Wholesale revenue increased by $2,357,715 or 74.7%, primarily through the resale of certain products for which the Company's retail stores had prepared large orders to other vendors. Because these retail drugstores achieved large sales quantities for certain brand name merchandise, the Company was able to negotiate lower than market purchase prices for those items. As a result, certain vendors who were unable to obtain a better price will purchase those items, resulting in growth in the Company's wholesale sales volumes.

Gross profit decreased by $304,143 or 6.8% year over year primarily as a result of lower gross profit provided by online sale. Gross margin was 21.4% compared to 19.3% due to lower online profit margins.

Net loss was $1.4 million or $0.06 per diluted share compared to last year's first quarter net income of $131,153 or $0.01 per diluted share.

Use of non-GAAP financial measures

To supplement China Jo-Jo's consolidated financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, China Jo-Jo uses the following measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the SEC: net income (loss) excluding share-based compensation expenses and change in fair value of derivative liabilities, and diluted net income (loss) per share excluding share-based compensation expenses and change in the fair value of derivatives liabilities. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

China Jo-Jo believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and liquidity by excluding share-based compensation expenses and change in fair value of derivative liabilities that may not be indicative of its operating performance from a cash perspective. China Jo-Jo believes that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management's internal comparisons to China Jo-Jo's historical performance and liquidity. China Jo-Jo computes its non-GAAP financial measures using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter. China Jo-Jo believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. A limitation of using these non-GAAP measures is that they exclude share-based compensation and change in fair value of derivative liabilities charge that has been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future a significant recurring expense in our business. Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from each non-GAAP measure. The table under the heading Reconciliation to non-GAAP Financial Measures in the beginning of the release has more details on the reconciliations between GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures.
