HAIKOU CITY, China, May 15, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- China Pharma Holdings, Inc. (NYSE American: CPHI) ("China Pharma," the "Company" or "We"), an NYSE American-listed corporation with a fully-integrated specialty pharmaceuticals subsidiary based in China, today announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.
First Quarter Highlights
Ms. Zhilin Li, China Pharma's Chairman and CEO, commented, "The current outbreak of COVID-19 has had a material and adverse effect on the Company's business operations. We had experienced disruptions and restrictions on our ability to travel and to distribute our products, as well as temporary closures of our facilities or the facilities of the suppliers or customers. In addition, COVID-19 has resulted in a widespread health crisis that adversely affected the economies and financial markets of China and many other countries." Ms. Li continued, "along with the lasting efforts to place emphasis on the marketing and sales of our current exiting pharmaceutical products, we continue to explore in the field of comprehensive healthcare. Comprehensive healthcare focuses on people's daily life, aging and disease and pays attention to all kinds of risk factors and misunderstandings affecting health. We launched wash-free sanitizer and mask production lines recently to address the market needs caused by COVID-19. We aim to leverage our expertise in the PRC for the development, manufacture and commercialization of pharmaceutical and comprehensive healthcare products for the benefit of human health."
First Quarter Results
Revenue decreased by 39.8% to $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This decrease was mainly due to the negative impact of the outbreak of COVID-19. Since the Chinese New Year holiday in early February, almost all Chinese companies, including us, have delayed the resumption of work. Our work resumption rate has gradually returned to 90% by the end of March 2020.
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, our cost of revenue was $1.6 million, or 89% of total revenue, while cost of revenue was $2.3 million, or 78% of total revenue, for the same period in 2019.
Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $0.2 million, as compared to $0.7 million during the same period in 2019. Our gross profit margin in the three months ended March 31, 2020 was 11.0% as compared to 22.4% during the same period in 2019. The decrease in our gross profit margin was mainly due to the decrease in revenue and the increased ratio of fixed cost to revenue.
Our selling expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Selling expenses accounted for 18.5% of the total revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to 16.3% during the same period in 2019. As a result of the adjustment of many policies of healthcare reform, we had reduced the number of personnel and expenses to efficiently support our sales and the collection of accounts receivable.
Our general and administrative expenses were both $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. It accounted for 22.0% and 14.6% of our total revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Our research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $0.05 million, as compared to $0.07 million in the same period in 2019. Research and development expenses accounted for 2.8% and 2.4% of our total revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These expenditures were mainly for the consistency evaluations of our existing products.
Our bad debt expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $30,246, as compared to $13,312 for the same period in 2019. The increase in our bad debt expenses in this period was partially due to the slow-down collection of bad debt because of the nationwide delayed work resumption caused by COVID-19.
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $0.7 million, or $0.02 each basic and diluted share, as compared to a net loss of $0.4 million, or $0.01 each basic and diluted share, for the same period a year ago. The increase in net loss was mainly a result of decreased revenue, whereas the expenditures did not decrease in proportion to revenue due to fixed costs.
Financial Condition
As of March 31, 2020 the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $0.1 million compared to $1.1 million as of December 31, 2019.
