Weikang Bio-Technology Group (fka WKBT)

Their has been some discussion about wkbt having margins higher than other companies in the industry on the CGS board...

I would like to point out that WKBT as a wholesaler with very low A/R & state of the art equipment should be more effective in controling operating margins than a company that sells strickly retail.

That said I looked at 2010 profit & operating margins for ckgt of 32.73% & 31.41%]cbp 35.33% & 36.37%]wkbt 32.7% & 45.17%]nuin55.46% & 65.13% & in my opinion nuin & wkbt are the better run 2 in the bunch but even so profit margins were close on all but nuin a company with a product in high demand.

bspm had profit margins of 21.67% & operating margins of 29.43% in 2010 but being basically a 1 product company i don't think it should be compared to the others.

Simularly GFRE which is in a different industry should not have comparable margins.
