At the same time, in 21 years, the company’s tacrolimus / cyclosporine A / rapamycin detection kit and other products were successively approved, With the help of the mature and complete channel sales network, the self-produced products can achieve accelerated volume. We expect that the company’s self-produced products business is expected to maintain rapid growth in the future; 22q1 channel agent products maintained a steady growth rate and achieved a revenue of 1.826 billion yuan, an increase of 21.13% over the same period last year.

The net interest rate of 22q1 company was 19.72%, an increase of 5.34pp year-on-year.
