“During fiscal 2019, the total newborn number in China and in the markets we operate decreased. Despite the market condition, we managed to recruit over 89,000 new subscribers, hitting the upper bound of our fiscal 2019 target. The management team is glad with our achievements,” said Ms. Ting Zheng, Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer of GCBC.

 

“We expect volume contributions from our three markets to remain in their respective trends, and we maintain caution regarding near-term volumes. We believe that our new pricing will absorb some rising cost pressures and bridge the revenue gap while better reflecting the Company’s market position. As we continue to re-examine our capital on hand, business position, core competencies, and strategy, we also remain alert to the possible changes ahead together with available opportunities. With the solid foundation set forth by our PRC cord blood banking business, we continue our commitment towards enhancing service quality, customer experience, and taking a pro-active approach to expand our business scope and service offerings in order to take the Company to the next phase,” Ms. Zheng concluded.

Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2019 Financial Results

 

REVENUES. Revenues in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 increased by 8.0% YoY to RMB251.7 million ($37.5 million). The growth was mainly driven by the expansion of the subscriber base.

 

The Company’s accumulated subscriber base reached 750,2731 by the end of March 2019, and revenues generated from storage fees increased by 20.0% YoY to RMB103.0 million ($15.3 million). Storage fees accounted for 40.9% of the total revenues, up from 36.8% in the prior year period.

 

During the reporting quarter, we recorded 22,194 new subscribers. Revenues generated from processing fees and other services in the fourth quarter increased to RMB148.7 million ($22.2 million) from RMB147.2 million in the prior year period. As a percentage of revenues, revenues generated from processing fees accounted for 59.1% compared to 63.2 % in the prior year period.

 

GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 increased by 8.2% YoY to RMB204.3 million ($30.4 million). A better revenue mix was partially offset by noticeable increases in raw material and labor costs, resulting in gross margin slightly increasing to 81.2% during the quarter from 81.0% in the prior year period.

 

OPERATING INCOME and NON-GAAP OPEARTING INCOME2. Fourth quarter operating income increased significantly to RMB88.9 million ($13.2 million) from RMB42.2 million in the prior year period. Despite higher sales and marketing expenses, operating income improved due to the absence of share-based compensation expenses related to the Company’s RSUs scheme, of which the shares were fully vested in the prior year period. Depreciation and amortization expenses for the reporting quarter was RMB13.1 million ($2.0 million) compared to RMB12.8 million in prior year period. Fourth quarter non-GAAP operating income2 was RMB101.9 million ($15.2 million) compared to RMB102.9 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP operating margin was 40.5% compared to 44.2% in the same period of last year.

 

Sales and Marketing Expenses. Although no share-based compensation expense was recorded in the fourth quarter, sales and marketing expenses for the fourth quarter was up 12.8% YoY to RMB67.3 million ($10.0 million). Both higher staff renumeration expenses and increased promotional activities contributed to the increase in sales and marketing expenses. While the decline in newborn numbers within the addressable markets was unfavorable, the Company believes it was necessary and remains devoted to raising public awareness and driving public interest towards the potential medical benefits of umbilical cord blood banking. As a percentage of revenues, sales and marketing expenses increased moderately from 25.6% in the prior year period to 26.7% in the reporting period.

 

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter dropped to RMB43.5 million ($6.5 million) from RMB83.5 million in the prior year period. Such decrease was mainly due to the absence of share-based compensation expense related to the vesting of all outstanding RSUs. On a quarter over quarter basis, general administrative expense edged down 3% as the Company continued to closely monitor its administrative cost structure.

 

OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSES.

 

Change in Fair Value of Equity Securities. In the reporting quarter, the Company recognized an increase in fair value of equity securities, or “mark-to-market gains”, of RMB11.5 million ($1.7 million) as other income under the new accounting standard3. Such increase was mainly attributable to the investments in Cordlife Group Limited (“Cordlife”).

 

NET INCOME ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE COMPANY’S SHAREHOLDERS. As a result of the increase in operating income as well as the recognition of an increase in fair value of equity securities through net income, net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders for the reporting period nearly tripled to RMB91.1 million ($13.6 million) from RMB30.5 million in the prior year period. Net margin for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 improved to 36.2% from 13.1% in the prior year period.

 

EARNINGS PER SHARE. Basic and diluted earnings per ordinary share for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 improved to RMB0.74 ($0.11).

 


 

Full Year Fiscal 2019 Financial Results

 

For the full year fiscal 2019, total revenues increased by 5.3% YoY to RMB986.8 million ($147.0 million). The increase was mainly attributable to the growth in storage fee revenues as the Company’s enlarged subscriber base reached 750,2731 as of March 31, 2019. Gross profit increased by 6.0% YoY to RMB800.7 million ($119.3 million). Operating income increased by 36.4% YoY to RMB381.7 million ($56.9 million), mainly due to the absence of share-based compensation expense. Non-GAAP operating income2 improved by 4.7% YoY to RMB434.0 million ($64.7 million). Decrease in fair value of equity securities during fiscal 2019 was RMB57.1 million ($8.5 million) and was recorded as other expense following the adoption of a new accounting standard3, whereas RMB29.6 million of such decrease was recorded as other comprehensive losses in the previous fiscal year. Net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders increased by 22.8% to RMB291.1 million ($43.4 million), resulting from increased operating income, which was partially offset by the decrease in fair value of equity securities. Basic and diluted earnings per ordinary share were RMB2.40 ($0.36). Net cash provided by operating activities in the full year of fiscal 2019 was RMB792.1 million ($118.0 million) compared to RMB818.8 million in the prior year period.

 

Recent Developments

 

·                  On June 4, 2019, the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) received a non-binding proposal letter from Cordlife, a company listed on the Mainboard of the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (“SGX”), pursuant to which Cordlife proposes to combine the businesses of Cordlife and the Company, by way of a statutory merger. According to the letter, Cordlife would issue approximately 2,497.9 million ordinary shares at an issue price of SGD0.5 per ordinary share in exchange for all of the outstanding ordinary shares of the Company at $7.50 per ordinary share. Upon completion of the proposed transaction, the Company’s ordinary shares will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange and the Cordlife ordinary shares will continue to trade on SGX.

 

·                  On June 5, 2019, the Board formed a special committee of independent directors (the “Special Committee”) who are not affiliated with Cordlife to evaluate such proposal. The Special Committee intends to retain advisors, including an independent financial advisor and U.S. and Cayman Islands legal counsels, to assist it in its work.

 

·                  The Company cautions its shareholders and others considering trading its ordinary shares that no decisions have been made with respect to the Company’s response to the proposed transaction. The proposed transaction is still subject to various conditions, including but not limited to, completion of due diligence, parties entering into definitive agreement, and/or each of Cordlife and the Company obtaining its relevant regulatory and shareholders approval. There can be no assurance that any definitive offer will be made, that any agreement will be executed or that this or any other transaction will be approved or consummated.

 


1 During the three months and year ended March 31, 2019, 22,194 and 89,366 new subscribers were recruited, respectively. The Company reclassified 200 and 711 private cord blood units as donated cord blood units during the three months and year ended March 31, 2019, respectively, after the Company determined that the recoverability of these prior private cord blood banking subscribers was remote. Therefore, the Company terminated their subscription services according to the subscription contracts and these units are being treated as if they were donated cord blood units and will be part of the Company’s non-current inventories. Hence, the net accumulated subscriber base was 750,273 as of March 31, 2019.

 

2 See exhibit 3 to this press release for a reconciliation of non-GAAP operating income to exclude the non-cash items related to the depreciation and amortization and share-based compensation expense to the comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The share-based compensation expense for the three months and year ended March 31, 2019 was nil.

 

3 Change in fair value of equity securities was recognized as other income/expenses instead of other comprehensive income/losses as practiced previously because of the adoption of Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-01 from April 1, 2018. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2019, there were a decrease in fair value of RMB2.5 million and an increase of fair value of RMB11.5 million ($1.7 million) of equity securities, respectively. During the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2019, there were a decrease in fair value of equity securities of RMB29.6 million and RMB57.1 million ($8.5 million), respectively.

 

4 The reported operating income for the three months and years ended March 31, 2018 and 2019 included the following:

 

(i)             Depreciation and amortization expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2019 were RMB12.8 million and RMB13.1 million ($2.0 million). Depreciation and amortization expenses for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2019 were RMB50.6 million and RMB52.4 million ($7.8 million); and

(ii)          For the three months and year ended March 31, 2018, share-based compensation expenses related to the Company’s RSUs scheme were RMB47.9 million and RMB84.3 million, respectively, whereas no such expense was recorded in the current quarter and current year since all outstanding RSUs were fully vested in the quarter ended March 31, 2018.

 


 

Conference Call

 

The Company will host a conference call at 8:00 a.m. ET on Wednesday, June 19, 2019, to discuss its financial performance and give a brief overview of the Company’s recent developments followed by a question and answer session. Interested parties can access the audio webcast through the Company’s IR website at http://ir.globalcordbloodcorp.com. A replay of the webcast will be accessible two hours after the conference call and available for seven days at the same URL link above. Listeners can also access the call by dialing 1-646-722-4977 or 1-855-824-5644 for US callers, or +852-3027-6500 for Hong Kong callers, access code: 72488018#.

 

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

GAAP results for the three months and year ended March 31, 2019 include non-cash items related to depreciation and amortization expenses. To supplement the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented on a U.S. GAAP basis, the Company has provided adjusted financial information excluding the impact of these items in this press release. The non-GAAP financial measure represents non-GAAP operating income. Such adjustment is a departure from U.S. GAAP; however, the Company’s management believes that these adjusted measures provide investors with a better understanding of how the results relate to the Company’s historical performance. Also, management uses non-GAAP operating income as a measurement tool for evaluating actual operating performance compared to budget and prior periods. These adjusted measures should not be considered an alternative to operating income, or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These measures are not necessarily comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company. A reconciliation of the adjustments to U.S. GAAP results appears in exhibit 3 accompanying this press release.
