"We are pleased to report that notwithstanding the COVID-19 pandemic disruption across the globe, China Biologic's top and bottom line results grew at a healthy pace during the full year 2020, with a strong year over year performance in the fourth quarter," said Joseph Chow, Chairman and CEO of China Biologic. "Compared with 2019, both operating income and net income (non-GAAP) in 2020 experienced double-digit percentage growth and our operating margin increased by nearly 5%. This favorable result is partially driven by the recent group restructuring which streamlined our operations and reduced our expenses. In addition, we managed to maintain the same level of plasma collection volume as last year, recovering from the first quarter when plasma collection volume decreased by 40% due to the pandemic."
"Looking ahead, the pandemic uncertainties will likely persist throughout most of 2021. We will continue exploring various initiatives to execute our operational strategies for the sustainable growth of the company. We believe these efforts will enable us to bring more reliable high quality medical products and technologies to our patients in the future."
