Mr. Ronghua Wang, Chairman and CEO of BSPM, commented, "Fiscal year 2013 was a year of turnaround for Biostar as we achieved profitability as compared to the prior year. Thanks to our heightened controls in product safety as well as pricing adjustments for Xin Ao Xing Oleanolic Acid Capsule, our flagship drug for the treatment of chronic Hepatitis B virus (HBV), we believe we have regained the trust and confidence of our customers and stabilized our market share in the HBV segment, as evident by the increase in our sales volume. During the year, our sales to hospital increased 145% due to several new products which were launched and sold exclusively to hospitals in Shaanxi province since late 2012, In 2014, we expect to continue our current strategies by expanding our sales and distribution network, strengthening the research and development of new drugs, and investing in low risk, high margin and fast growing businesses. "
Full Year 2013 Financial Results
Total Revenues
Total revenues for the full year 2013 were $52.73 million, an increase of 7% from $49.32million for the full year 2012. The increase was primarily due to the increase in new products and hospital products. The hospital products increased 145.8% to $7.08 million, compared with $2.88 million for the full year 2012.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit decreased by approximately $4.2 million or 14% for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the year of 2012. The decrease in gross profit was due primarily to the decrease in sales price and increase in product cost, offset by the increase in sales volume.
The overall gross profit margin decreased to 48% for the year ended December 31, 2013 from 60.5% for the year ended December 31, 2012. Our overall gross profit was significantly affected by the decrease in gross margin of Xin Aoxing Oleanolic Capsule from 80.9% during the year ended December 31, 2012 to 65.5%
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses mainly consisted of advertising, selling, administrative, and R&D expenses totaling $25.17million for the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared to $51.64 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, a decrease of $26.47million or 51.2%. The decrease is attributable to the decrease in advertising and selling expenses and bad debts. During the year ended December 31, 2012, as a result of the developments relating to the capsule production discussed above, we paid compensation of $8.0 million to our customers for their cost of holding our products in their warehouses and portion of their lost profits during the sales suspension, as well as an administrative penalty of $1.6 million.
