The rise in costs combined with the rise in period expenses brought about by M & A made the net profit attributable to the parent company in Q3 / Q4 fall by 18.9% and 34.6% respectively year-on-year in 21 years. In addition, the pressure of high gas prices continued to be transmitted to 22 years, the cost of Q1 in 22 years continued to increase significantly by 68.95% year-on-year, and the performance decreased by 21.04% year-on-year.
