in the transition period of centralized procurement

in addition, the sustainability of baiduan’s performance was also asked, which are core issues.

specifically, in baiduoan’s revenue structure, the main source of income is picc products, accounting for nearly half, followed by external cranial drainage systems, etc.

according to the inquiry reply from baiduoan, the average selling price of picc products has been declining year by year in recent years, reaching 576.01 yuan/set in 2021, 527.97 yuan/set in 2022, and 488.97 yuan/set in 2023. more noteworthy is that the sales volume in 2023 was 176,000 sets, which was lower than the 181,300 sets in 2022.

bai duoan explained,companyPICCit was included in the inter-provincial alliance centralized procurement organized by henan province and the beijing-tianjin-hebei alliance centralized procurement organized by hebei province. in the henan centralized procurement, the company's front-end three-way valve type and common typePICCthe first place was selectedin the beijing-tianjin-hebei centralized procurement, the company's productsordinary three-way valve”“normal front openingboth products are includedAgroup(medical institution procurement demand60%products includedAgroup, the remaining products are includedBgroup),inordinary three-way valveproducts inAthe group won the first bid.normal front openingproducts inAthe group won the bid in second place.

the provinces participating in henan centralized procurementfrom april 2024the centralized procurement results have been implemented one after another.may 15, 2024implementation has begun in hebei province.2023from the second half of the year to2024in 2018, the company was in the transition period of centralized procurement. due to the large drop in terminal prices of products after centralized procurement and the uncertainty of the time for provinces and cities to implement centralized procurement, distributors in various regions were more cautious in conducting their business. some distributors settled with the company in advance at the centralized procurement price. the above situation will have a negative impact on the company's product sales volume and sales price, which will cause the company's profitability to fluctuate during the transition period and may even lead to a decline in performance.

that is to say, at present, picc, the main product of bio-doan, is in the transition period of centralized procurement. in the long run, sales are expected to grow, but short-term performance will fluctuate. perhaps bio-doan terminated its ipo at this time to wait for performance data to stabilize.

promotion service compliance

for baiduan, there is one topic that cannot be avoided, which is the compliance of promotion services.

judging from the data, baiduoan's sales expenses have been high. from 2019 to the first half of 2022, the data were 70.5038 million yuan, 70.7277 million yuan, 79.195 million yuan, and 34.1424 million yuan, respectively, accounting for 303.72%, 264.69%, 239.66%, and 194.68% of the current non-net profit. among the sales expenses, promotion expenses accounted for the largest proportion, which were 28.0922 million yuan, 31.0487 million yuan, 31.0234 million yuan, and 15.7299 million yuan, respectively. the content of promotion expenses includes meetings, visits, and surveys.
