Under the background of high base, the decline in the income of anti epidemic products dragged down the overall performance: the epidemic situation in China stabilized in 2021, and the income of anti epidemic products such as monitors, which grew explosively due to the epidemic situation in the early stage, fell rapidly, which led to the overall decline of the company’s performance: the company’s patient monitoring business achieved a revenue of 599 million yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 59.3%, which seriously dragged down the overall performance growth of the company. Excluding the impact of the epidemic, the compound growth rate of the company’s operating revenue from 2019 to 2021 reached 20%. In 2021, the company’s sales expense was 323 million yuan (+ 5.91%, year-on-year, the same below), and the sales expense ratio was 19.72% (+ 2.24pp); The management expense is 105 million yuan (+ 4.01%), and the management expense rate is 6.40% (+ 2.06pp).
