According to the new accounting standards (transportation expenses are transferred from sales expenses to operating costs), the gross profit margin of 22q1 company is 37.85%, with a year-on-year increase of -0.47pct. The rise in the prices of barley, aluminum cans and other materials at the beginning of this year has a certain impact on the gross profit margin of the company. However, with the transmission of price increase and the continuous improvement of product structure, we expect the gross profit margin of the company to be relatively stable as a whole.

However, the epidemic situation in the whole country has improved to a certain extent in late April. If the epidemic situation can be effectively controlled before the traditional peak season, coupled with the price increase of products and the improvement of overall structure under the high-end, the steady growth of the company's revenue is worth looking forward to.
