China New Borun Announces Third Quarter 2017 Unaudited Financial Results
BEIJING, Nov. 21, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- China New Borun Corporation (NYSE: BORN; "Borun" or the "Company"), a leading producer and distributor of corn-based edible alcohol in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2017.
Mr. Jinmiao Wang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Borun, commented on the results, "Despite a longer annual maintenance, our third quarter revenue of RMB457 million beat our previous guidance. We again generated outstanding cash flows from operations totaling RMB342 million, boosting our corn sourcing capabilities in the new corn harvest season.
Demand remains strong from a very healthy baijiu industry, and we are encouraged by an increase in the average selling price of edible alcohol, which expanded 7% sequentially from that of the second quarter, and continued to further increase in October. With our facilities back up to full speed and corn prices stabilizing this harvest season, we anticipate higher revenue and sequential margin expansion in the fourth quarter of 2017," Mr. Wang concluded.

For the third quarter of 2017, revenue decreased by 24.1% year-over-year to RMB457.0 million ($68.9 million) from RMB602.2 million in the same period of 2016. The decrease in revenue was mainly due to lower sales volume of edible alcohol and its by-products.

- Revenue from crude corn oil decreased by 17.6% to RMB16.0 million ($2.4 million) in the third quarter of 2017, compared to RMB19.5 million in the third quarter of 2016. The sales volume of crude corn oil in the third quarter of 2017 decreased by 18.0% year-over-year to 2,529 tons, and the average selling price increased slightly by 0.4% year-over-year to RMB6,342 per ton.
During the third quarter of 2017, gross profit decreased by 7.7% to RMB30.1 million ($4.5 million) from RMB32.6 million in the same period of 2016. Gross margin for the third quarter of 2017 increased to 6.6%, from 5.4% in the same period of 2016, which was primarily attributable to the steeper decrease in average corn cost, compare with selling price of edible alcohol.
Operating income decreased by 17.7% to RMB17.4 million ($2.6 million) in the third quarter of 2017, from RMB21.1 million in the same period of 2016, primarily due to lower gross profit earned.

Cash flows generated from operating activities for the third quarter of 2017 amounted to RMB341.6 million ($51.5 million) which was mainly generated form the decrease in inventory during the third quarter of 2017.
Financial Outlook
The Company estimates that its revenue for the fourth quarter of 2017 will be in the range of RMB520 million($78.3 million) to RMB560 million ($84.4 million), an increase of approximately 1.3% to an increase of 9.1% over the same quarter of 2016.
