Net income was $3.08 million, up 80.73% as compared to the same period a year ago. Fully diluted earnings per share were $0.08, a 68.57% increase from the third quarter of 2006.

"We are pleased to deliver outstanding revenue and net income for the third quarter 2007. Our input to the marketing got good rewards. The company performed well both in terms of financial performance and execution of our key business strategies. Our increased market penetration for our existing portfolio and the wide acceptance of our newly launched products Granisetron hydrochloride and Alginic Sodium Diester have contributed to the strong growth of our revenue," commented Ms. Zhilin Li, President and CEO of China Pharma, "Our strong performance is the result of building an extensive and diversified portfolio of therapeutics which allows us not to depend on any one product for revenue growth.

Selling expenses were 422,098 US dollars for the quarter; it represents 55.78% of the total operating expenses. During this year, to broaden our market share further, a lot of money has been spent on the marketing of our products, 70 new salespersons have been recruited, in line with this, traveling expenses, office expenses and salaries have been increased.

General and administrative expenses incurred this quarter are $329 thousands; it stands for around 43% of the total operating expenses, while the corresponding G&A last year was $100 thousand, which stands for around 23.7% of the total operating expenses. This was mainly caused by a large sum of expenses spent in the design of new packaging style (amounting to $94 thousand), and because the carrying amount of the intangible assets has increased, the amortization expenses of intangible asset have also increased (by around $34 thousand), and as a result of the increased sales volume, traveling fees and office expenses have increased significantly as well.

Income from operations has increased to $3.12 million, up 50.69% yoy. This is a combined result of the 55.59% increase in gross profit.

As of September 30, 2007, China Pharma had $1.71 million in cash and cash equivalents, which was approximately eight folds on September 30, 2006. Total liabilities were $8.23 million and working capital was $29.98 million. Days Sales Outstanding was 166. And shareholders’ equity stood at $34.65 million.

Business Outlook

China Pharma has solid research and development cooperation with leading institutions in China, and has developed a diversified portfolio of therapeutics with strong potential. Its marketing channels are under continuous expansion and the size of its sales force is ever growing. Therefore, the Company’s revenue can be expected to grow continuously. And the China State Food and Drug Administration (SFDA) implemented a new regulation for registering new drugs on October 1st, 2007, which is expected to quickly resume normal procedures at SFDA for approving new drugs.

The rectification indeed brought transitory negative impact to the Chinese pharmaceutical industry, but we strongly believe that our R&D, manufacture, and marketing are full of opportunities.

The Seventeenth National Congress of the Communist Party of China has confirmed the basic policies of the health care reform. The government has committed to expand its rural cooperative medical system (CMS) to cover more rural areas in the country, and will spend $1.3 billion in this program on an annual basis. CMS is currently covering about 51% rural areas, and by 2010, the whole country will be covered by this program. China Pharma expects to greatly benefit from the CMS program.
