According to the F&S Report, this seasonality trend is consistent with the industry norm.
Our In-network Hospitals and radiotherapy centers, in line with the healthcare service industry in the PRC, typically have fewer patient visits shortly before and after the Chinese New Year, during which most people usually avoid visiting hospitals. As a result of the foregoing, our revenue was slightly lower in the first quarter of each financial year during the Track Record Period.
Sales of our products and services are subject to seasonality.
