Financial Results for Fiscal Year 2013

Revenues

Our total revenues are derived from our medical devices and our sleep respiratory and oxygen homecare products and services. In 2013, our total revenues decreased by 21.11% mainly due to the influence of increasingly challenging markets and new competitors.

Gross Profit

Our gross profit decreased from $8.12 million in 2012 to $6.41 million in 2013, but our gross margin increased from 37.98% in 2012 to 38.03% in 2013.
