Results of Operations
Three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to three months ended March 31, 2006
Revenue. We generated revenues of $5,008,472 for the three months ended March 31, 2007, a decrease of $5,526,888 or 52.5%, compared to $10,535,360 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The significant decrease in revenue was due to the negative impacton the company's reputation as a result of Bodisen being delisted by American Stock Exchange and the abnormally cold spring time weather of Shaanxi provincewhich affected cropplantings anddecreased the use of fertilizer.
Gross Profit. We achieved a gross profit of $1,990,222 for the three months ended March 31, 2007, a decrease of $2,246,017 or 53.0%, compared to $4,236,239 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The significant decrease in gross profit was due to the decreasein our sales revenue. Gross margin (gross profit as a percentage of revenues), slightly decreased, down from 40.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2006, to 39.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2007.
Operating expenses. We incurred operating expenses of $3,521,523 for the three months ended March 31, 2007, a significant increase compared to $778,398 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The significant increase in our operating expenses is primarily related to an increase in our allowance for bad debts during the three months ended March 31, 2007 of $1,360,277, which resulted from decrease of collections due to the damage to the company's reputation as discussed above. This significant increase in our allowance for bad debts offset the slight decrease in our aggregated selling expenses.
Aggregated selling expenses accounted for $349,014 of our operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2007, a decrease of $125,160 or 26.4% compared to $474,174 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The decrease in our aggregated selling expenses is due to the decrease of transportation expense as a result of the decrease.in sales. General and administrative expenses accounted for the remainder of our operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2007, which increased $2,868,285 compared to $304,224 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The increase in general and administrative expenses is due to an increased in our allowance for bad debts during the three months ended March 31, 2007 of $1,360,277,as discussed above and, to a lesser extent, higher legal fees.
Non Operating Income and Expenses. We had total non-operating income of $21,755 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to total non-operating expense of $775,198 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. Total non-operating income in the first quarter of 2007 included $67,197 of other expenses while in the first quarter of 2006 we had $124,541 of other expenses. Total non-operating income includes interest income of $90,009 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to only $28,063 of interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The increase in the first quarter of 2007 is due to the increase in our cash balance as a result ofthe repayment of a short term loan the company made to non-related parties.Total non-operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2007 also includes interest expense of only $1,057 compared to $678,720 of interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The majority of the interest expense in the first quarter of 2006 relates to the $5 million note issued December 8, 2005, which was repaid during March 2006.
Net Income (Loss). For the foregoing reasons, we had a net loss of $1,509,546 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to net income of $2,682,643 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. We had a loss per share of $(0.08) for the three months ended March 31, 2007 compared to earnings per share of $0.16 for the three months ended March 31, 2006.
