Mr. David (Xiaoying) Gao, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of China Biologic, commented, "With the CFDA's special approval, this plasma purchase presents a unique growth opportunity for China Biologic in the near term. The additional supply of source plasma and plasma pastes, which represents over 20% of our current annual collection volume, will enable us to significantly improve the production utilization rate of our Guizhou production facility and better meet the growing demand for plasma products, including the highly sought-after IVIG, in tier-one cities in China. We anticipate that this purchase will have a meaningful positive impact on our top and bottom line growth over the next two years."
