During the three months ended March 31, 2020, COVID-19 affected the operational and financial performance of the Company as the PRC imposed a national economic shutdown to limit the spread of COVID-19 from early February to mid-March. At the same time the Company temporarily closed all of its factories while transportations in or out of them were suspended, and experienced an unprecedented “supplier chain break”. Since the restart of operations near the end of March, the Company’s financial performances have been recovering continuously as transportations have returned to normal, the supply chain wasrestored and all of its factories resumed working.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, total revenues were $17,585,468 and $7,841,437, respectively. The total revenues increased by $9,744,031 or 124% from the nine months ended March 31, 2019 to the nine months ended March 31, 2020.

Among the significant increase of $9,744,031 in total revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2020, $11,581,460 was the revenue from Fangguan Electronics which was acquired on December 27, 2018. The acquisition expanded the Company’s operations in the fields of LCM in the PRC and significantly increased the volume of goods (LCD, etc.) being sold.

The increase in total revenues due to acquisition of Fangguan Electronics was partially offset by the decreases of $1,837,429 related to the other business (excluding Fangguan Electronics) for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 2019. After Fangguan Electronics was acquired, all business of Fangguan Photoelectric was replaced by Fangguan Electronics, which caused total revenues to decrease by $2,407,535 respectively for the nine months ended March 31, 2020.

Cost of Revenue

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the total cost of revenues was $2,506,518 and $2,271,380, respectively. The total cost of revenues increased by $235,138 or 10% from the three months ended March 31, 2019 to the three months ended March 31, 2020.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the total cost of revenues was $14,850,194 and $6,618,015 respectively. The total cost of revenues increased by $8,232,179 or 124% from the nine months ended March 31, 2019 to the nine months ended March 31, 2020.

Among the significant increase of $8,232,179 in total cost of revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 2019, the $9,991,514 increase can be directly attributed to the acquisition of Fangguan Electronics on December 27, 2018.

The increase in total cost of revenues due to acquisition of Fangguan Electronics was partially offset by the decreases of $1,759,335 related to the other business (excluding Fangguan Electronics) for the nine months ended March 31, 2020 compared to 2019. After Fangguan Electronics was acquired, all business of Fangguan Photoelectric was replaced by Fangguan Electronics, which caused total cost of revenues to decrease by $2,076,990 for the nine months ended March 31, 2020.

Gross Profit

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the gross profit was $245,652 and $623,422, respectively. Gross profit margin was at 9% during the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to 22% for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

The decrease in both gross profit and gross profit margin can be attributed to the fact that starting from second fiscal quarter, the Company adopted the new business strategy to have low gross profits and increase sales volume.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, selling, general and administrative expenses were $499,616 and $392,367, respectively.

Research and Development Expenses

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, research and development expenses were $139,029 and $158,562, respectively.

Net Income (Loss)

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 net income (loss) was $(636,222) and $21,064, respectively.
