Thank you operator. Good morning ladies and gentlemen and good evening to those of you joining us from China. Welcome to China Pharma Holdings’ fiscal year 2015 earnings conference call. I am Diana Huang, the company’s Investor Relations Manager. Speaking on the call today are China Pharma’s President and CEO and Interim CFO Ms. Zhilin Li; and Corporate Vice President, Mr. Sam Hsing. In addition, I will provide translation during the Q&A session of the call. The Company’s earnings press release issued earlier this morning is available on our website at www.chinapharmaholdings.com. I would like to remind our listeners that on this call management's prepared remarks contain forward-looking statements, which are subject to risks and uncertainties and management may make additional forward-looking statements in response to your questions. Therefore, the company claims the protection of the Safe Harbor for forward-looking statements that is contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Actual results may differ from those discussed today due to such risks as market and customer acceptance and demand for our products, our ability to market our product, the impact of competitive products and pricing, the ability to develop and launch new products on a timely basis, the regulatory environment including government regulation in the PRC, our ability to obtain the requisite regulatory approvals to commercialize our products, fluctuations in operating results including spending for Research and Development and sales and marketing activities, and other risks detailed from time-to-time in our filings with the SEC. In addition, any projections as to the Company's future performance represent management's estimates as of today, March 31, 2016. China Pharma assumes no obligation to update those projections in the future as market conditions change. Now, it is my pleasure to turn the call over to China Pharma’s CEO and Interim CFO, Ms. Li to make her opening remarks in Chinese, which will be then translated by Sam. Afterwards, Sam will continue translating Ms. Li’s detailed discussion of the Company's fiscal year 2015 financial results.

The upgrading of these oral solution production lines was completed before the deadline, which positioned us to better meet market demand. Although there was no immediate reversal of the sales trends in 2015 due to the special characteristics of the pharmaceutical industry, we strongly believe that our current operations and the financial position will allow us to secure the foundation for steady business growth in the future. I’ll now read the rest of the Ms. Li’s prepared remarks in English. Now, I would like to review our fiscal year 2015 financial results and balance sheet information. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015 were $20.4 million, a decrease of 8.1% from the revenue of the $22.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. This decrease was primarily due to the missed bidding in certain…
