Affected by the epidemic, revenue growth slowed down and profits were under pressure in the short term. In 2021, the revenue increased by 14.9% year-on-year; Net profit attributable to parent decreased by 21.4% year-on-year. The main reason is that Guangdong has been greatly affected by the epidemic and the government has tightened control, resulting in restrictions on the passenger flow and logistics transportation of some drugs and stores. With the gradual improvement of the epidemic situation, the performance recovery trend in the first quarter was obvious. In the post epidemic era, it is expected that 2022 will usher in a comprehensive recovery of performance.
