  •     
  •       
        
  •     
  •       The sales income and net profit of the main product 80% feed-grade vitamin B2 declined, partially owing to the climb in production costs arising from increased prices of raw materials and energy.

  •       
        
  •     
  •       During the reporting period, the company expanded the sales network, increased expenditure on R&D projects like vitamin B2 fermentation process optimisation project, and granted stocks to the stock incentive recipients in the restricted stock incentive plan for 2021, which all contributed to a year-on-year rise in the costs.
