“We were pleased to achieve another quarter of strong financial results, driven primarily by the higher-than-expected IVIG sales in the distributor channel following the successful reorganization of our sales and marketing team,” said Joseph Chow, Chairman and CEO of China Biologic. “Looking into the fourth quarter and beyond, our new sales and marketing talent will be dedicated to the further pursuit of medical marketing strategies to enhance doctors’ awareness about the benefits of IVIG, PCC, and other coagulation factor products in treating chronic diseases. As a result of stronger than expected albumin sales for the first nine months of the year combined with this quarter’s rebound in IVIG sales, we are raising guidance for the full year 2019.”

Financial Outlook

 

For the full year of 2019, the Company is raising its full year forecast of growth of non-GAAP adjusted income from operations to 11% to 13% from 4% to 6% and non-GAAP adjusted net income growth to 16% to 18% from 4% to 6% in RMB terms over the Company’s full year 2018 financial results. The raising of guidance was primarily due to the combined effect of stronger than expected albumin sales for the first nine months of the year, a rebound in IVIG sales in the third quarter, and higher than anticipated interest income for the full year.

 

This guidance does not factor in any potential foreign currency translation impact. Having previously adopted an exchange rate of approximately RMB6.59 = $1.00 based on weighted average quarterly exchange rates in 2018 in translating 2018 financial results, the Company expects that the total sales and non-GAAP adjusted net income in USD terms in 2019 could be affected by the foreign currency translation impact.

 

This guidance excludes potential acquisitions, and necessarily assumes no significant adverse product price changes during 2019. This forecast reflects the Company’s current and preliminary views, which are subject to change.

The Company will host a conference call at 7:30 am Eastern Time on Thursday, November 14, 2019, which is 8:30 pm Beijing Time on November 14, 2019, to discuss its third quarter 2019 results and answer questions from investors. Listeners may access the call by dialing:

China Biologic Third Quarter 2019 Financial Results

 

Third Quarter 2019 Financial Performance

 

Total sales in the third quarter of 2019 increased by 17.5% in RMB terms, or 14.3% in USD terms, to $136.1 million from $119.1 million in the same quarter of 2018.

 

Total sales for biopharmaceutical products (including plasma products and placenta polypeptide products) increased by 18.8% in RMB terms, or 15.5% in USD terms, to $124.3 million from $107.6 million in the same quarter of 2018, as a result of increased sales of most plasma products including human albumin and IVIG, which was partly offset by decreased sales of placenta polypeptide products. For plasma products, total sales in the third quarter of 2019 increased by 39.3% in RMB terms, or 35.5% in USD terms, to $119.8 million from $88.4 million in the same quarter of 2018.

 

Total sales for biomaterial products in the third quarter of 2019 increased by 5.7% in RMB terms, or 2.6% in USD terms, to $11.8 million from $11.5 million in the same quarter of 2018, as a result of higher sales concentration of higher-unit-price artificial dura mater products.

 

During the third quarter of 2019, human albumin and IVIG products remained the Company’s two largest sales contributors. Revenue from human albumin increased by 24.6% in RMB terms, or 21.1% in USD terms, from $38.8 million in the third quarter of 2018 to $47.0 million in the third quarter of 2019. Revenue from IVIG products increased by 51.9% in RMB terms, or 47.9% in USD terms, from $24.2 million in the third quarter of 2018 to $35.8 million in the third quarter of 2019. As a percentage of total sales, sales from human albumin and IVIG products were 34.6% and 26.3%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2019.

 

The sales volume of human albumin products increased by 24.4% for the third quarter of 2019, with a growth primarily in direct sales to hospitals and inoculation centers, supplemented by a growth in the distributor channels. The sales volume of IVIG products increased by 55.6% for the third quarter of 2019 with a growth primarily in the distributor channels, supplemented by a growth in the direct sales channel.

 

The average price for human albumin remained stable in RMB terms in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter of 2018. The average price for IVIG products decreased by 2.4% in RMB terms over the same quarter of 2018, because of higher sales volume in the distributor channel and lower prices to certain distributors to enhance our sales volume. In USD terms, the average price for human albumin and IVIG products decreased by 2.6% and 5.1%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter of 2018.

Revenue from other immunoglobulin products increased by 34.5% in RMB terms, or 30.9% in USD terms in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter of 2018, reaching 17.1% of total sales as compared to 14.9% of total sales in the same quarter of 2018. The revenue increase was mainly attributable to the increased sales volume of human rabies immunoglobulin and human tetanus immunoglobulin products.

 

Revenue from other plasma products, including human coagulation factor VIII, human prothrombin complex concentrate, and human fibrinogen products, increased by 85.4% in RMB terms, or 80.3% in USD terms, in the third quarter of 2019 compared to the same quarter of 2018, representing 10.1% of total sales in the third quarter of 2019. The growth was mainly due to increased sales through the distributor channel.

 

Revenue from placenta polypeptide products decreased by 75.9% in RMB terms, or 76.6% in USD terms for the third quarter of 2019 as compared to the same quarter of 2018, accounting for 3.3% of total sales compared to 16.1% of total sales in the third quarter of 2018, mainly because this product was included in the drug lists for monitoring and prescription control in many regions, which put a downward pressure on its sales volume.

 

Cost of sales increased by 25.3% to $47.5 million in the third quarter of 2019 from $37.9 million in the same quarter of 2018. As a percentage of total sales, cost of sales increased to 34.9% from 31.8% in the same quarter of 2018, mainly due to decreased sales prices for most of the Company’s plasma products and increased plasma collection costs.

 

Gross profit increased by 9.1% to $88.6 million in the third quarter of 2019 from $81.2 million in the same quarter of 2018. Gross margin was 65.1% and 68.2% in the third quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

Total operating expenses in the third quarter of 2019 decreased by $16.9 million, or 32.2%, to $35.6 million from $52.5 million in the same quarter of 2018. This decrease mainly consisted of decreases of $9.7 million in selling expenses, $7.0 million in general and administrative expenses and $0.2 million in research and development expenses. As a percentage of total sales, total operating expenses decreased to 26.2% in the third quarter of 2019 from 44.1% in the same quarter of 2018.

 

Selling expenses in the third quarter of 2019 decreased by $9.7 million, or 35.4%, to $17.7 million from $27.4 million for the third quarter of 2018. The decrease is primarily due to the decrease in marketing and promotion expenses related to placenta polypeptide products, which is partly offset by increased selling expenses for plasma products. As a percentage of total sales, selling expenses decreased to 13.0% in the third quarter of 2019 from 23.0% in the same quarter of 2018.

General and administrative expenses in the third quarter of 2019 decreased by $7.0 million, or 31.5%, to $15.2 million from $22.2 million in the same quarter of 2018. As a percentage of total sales, general and administrative expenses decreased to 11.2% for the third quarter of 2019 from 18.6% for the same quarter of 2018. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was mainly due to decreases in legal fees, one-time provisions and share-based compensation expenses.

 

Research and development expenses in the third quarter of 2019 decreased by $0.2 million, or 6.9%, to $2.7 million from $2.9 million in the same quarter of 2018. As a percentage of total sales, research and development expenses decreased to 2.0% in the third quarter of 2019 from 2.4% in the same quarter of 2018.

 

Income from operations in the third quarter of 2019 increased by 89.9% in RMB terms, or 84.7% in USD terms, to $53.0 million from $28.7 million in the same quarter of 2018. Operating margin increased to 38.9% in the third quarter of 2019 from 24.1% in the same quarter of 2018.

 

Income tax expense in the third quarter of 2019 was $7.6 million compared to an income tax benefit of $3.6 million in the same period of 2018. During the third quarter of 2018, we reversed $7.5 million U.S. corporate income tax based on the deemed repatriation to the United States of the Company’s accumulated earnings mandated by the U.S. Tax Reform, according to new regulations and rules issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury in August 2018. Excluding the tax reversal impact, the effective income tax rate was 12.4% and 11.5% for the third quarter of 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

Net income attributable to the Company increased by 46.8% in RMB terms, or 42.9% in USD terms, to $47.0 million in the third quarter of 2019 from $32.9 million in the same period of 2018.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the first nine months of 2019 was $156.4 million as compared to $71.0 million for the same period of 2018. The $85.4 million increase in net cash provided by operating activities was a combined result of the increase in net income and a slowdown of increase in accounts receivable and inventories compared to the first nine months of 2018.

 

Accounts receivable increased by $19.2 million during the first nine months of 2019 as compared to $47.7 million during the same period of 2018. The accounts receivable turnover days for plasma products increased to 100 days during the first nine months of 2019 from 94 days during the same period of 2018, reflecting longer credit terms to hospitals as a result of the nationwide implementation of healthcare reform measures and intensified competition in the distributor channel.

 

Inventories increased by $8.9 million in the first nine months of 2019, which was relatively modest compared to the increase of $34.7 million in the same period of 2018. This reflected a lower level of albumin inventory attributable to higher-than-expected albumin sales, which was partially offset by higher IVIG inventory due to sluggish IVIG sales.

 

Net cash used in investing activities for the first nine months of 2019 was $37.6 million as compared to $686.2 million for the same period of 2018. During the first nine months of 2019, the Company paid $21.3 million for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and land use rights, and the Company also purchased time deposits and short-term investments in the amount of $1,824.2 million. This was partly offset by the maturity of time deposits and short term investments of $1,806.3 million, and proceeds from sale of property, plant and equipment, land use right and intangible assets of $1.6 million. Net cash used in investing activities in the first nine months of 2018 mainly consisted of payment of $1,680.5 million for purchase of time deposits and short term investments, and payment of $26.9 million for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, and land use rights, which was partly offset by $97.7 million cash received upon acquisition of TianXinFu and the maturity of $923.4 million time deposits and short term investments.

Net cash used in financing activities for the first nine months of 2019 was $238.7 million as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $581.3 million for the same period of 2018. In the first nine months of 2019, the Company paid $118.9 million for the acquisition of minority interest in TianXinFu. $110.0 million was remitted to an investment bank by the Company to execute the previously approved share repurchase program on behalf of the Company. During this period, 1,196,228 shares were repurchased at a total amount of $111.0 million. In addition, the subsidiaries of the Company paid $10.1 million dividend to the non-controlling interest shareholders. Net cash provided by financing activities in the first nine months of 2018 mainly represented proceeds of $590.3 million from the issuance and sale of an aggregate of 5,850,000 ordinary shares of the Company to certain investors in late third quarter of 2018.

 

Non-GAAP Disclosure

 

This management’s discussion and analysis of the financial results (this “MD&A”) contains non-GAAP financial measures that exclude non-cash compensation expenses related to restricted shares and restricted share units granted to employees and directors under the Company's Equity Incentive Plans and amortization of acquired intangible assets and land use rights. To supplement the Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis, the Company has provided non-GAAP financial information excluding the impact of these items in this MD&A. The Company's management believes that its presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information to and facilitates additional analysis by investors. A reconciliation of the adjustments to GAAP results appears in the table accompanying this MD&A. This additional non-GAAP information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financials. The non-GAAP financial information that the Company provides also may differ from the non-GAAP information provided by other companies.

 

In addition, as the Company evaluates certain key items of its financial results on a local currency basis (i.e., in RMB) in addition to the reporting currency (i.e., in USD), this MD&A contains local currency information that eliminates the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company believes that, given its operations primarily based in China, providing local currency information on such key items enhances the understanding of its financial results and evaluation of performance in comparison to prior periods. Changes in local currency percentages are calculated by comparing financial results denominated in RMB from period to period.
