These figures included the sales revenue of Za and PURE&MILD, which the Company successfully acquired on October 31, 2023. Taking into consideration only the brands included during the last reporting period, the Company’s operating revenue stood at about CNY959,395,100 from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period, an increase of about 11.13%. (2) The Company’s operating costs from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period stood at CNY306,201,900, an increase of CNY99,921,900 or about 48.44% compared with the same period of the previous year, mainly due to the increased operating costs as the Company’s sales scale and sales revenue rose. These figures included the marketing costs of Za and PURE&MILD, which the Company successfully acquired on October 31, 2023. Taking into consideration only the brands included during the last reporting period, the Company’s operating costs stood at about CNY247,494,900 from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period, an increase of about 19.98%. The gross profit margin on sales was about 74.20%. The growth of the Company’s operating costs basically matched the growth of the sales scale, and the production costs were basically stable. From the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period, the growth rate of operating costs was slightly higher than that of operating revenue, mainly due to the dynamic adjustments of the Company’s promotion policies and product portfolios according to the market. (3) The Company’s tax and additional tax from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period stood at CNY8,603,100, an increase of CNY813,000 or about 10.44% compared with the same period of the previous year, mainly due to the increased tax and additional tax as the Company’s sales scale and sales revenue rose. The growth rate of the Company’s tax and additional tax from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period was lower than that of the sales revenue, mainly due to the decreased 7 Quarterly Report 2024 Q1 of Yunnan Botanee Bio-Technology Group Co., Ltd. input VAT plus tax credits and the decreased taxable sales revenue for consumption tax during the reporting period. (4) The Company’s marketing expenses from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period stood at CNY512,649,800, an increase of CNY101,711,600 or about 24.75% compared with the same period of the previous year, mainly due to the continuously increased investment in brand image promotion and communication, human resources and storage as the Company’s sales scale and sales revenue rose.

The growth rate of the Company’s administration expenses from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period was lower than that of the sales scale, mainly due to the effective cost reduction and efficiency improvement measures for administrative functions and back-stage management expenses implemented by the Company during the reporting period. (6) The Company’s other incomes from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period stood at CNY7,985,400, an increase of CNY3,159,400 or about 65.47% compared with the same period of the previous year, mainly due to the increased tax credits of input VAT and the increased revenue-related government subsidies for the Company compared with the same period of the previous year from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period. (7) The Company’s investment income from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period stood at CNY10,575,700, an increase of CNY4,886,900 or about 85.91% compared with the same period of the previous year. This big increase was mainly due to the increased maturity yield generated by the Company’s cash management projects (managed by third parties with the Company’s authorization and measured at fair value) from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period. (8) The Company’s net income from changes in fair value from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period stood at CNY12,444,800, a decrease of CNY19,007,200 or about 60.43% compared with the same period of the previous year, mainly due to the decreased fair value fluctuations of the cash management projects (managed by third parties with the Company’s authorization and measured at fair value) compared with the same period of the previous year during the reporting period. (9) The Company’s net losses from credit impairment from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period stood at CNY752,600, a decrease of CNY1,986,100 compared with the same period of the previous year. This big decrease was mainly due to the decreased provision for receivables impairment during the reporting period. During the reporting period, there were no changes in the Company’s accounting policies and accounting estimates for the provision for receivables impairment. (10) The Company’s net income from asset impairment from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period stood at CNY1,521,900, mainly due to the net write-back of the Company’s provision for inventory impairment. During the reporting period, there were no changes in the Company’s accounting policies and accounting estimates for the provision for inventory impairment. (11) The Company’s asset disposal income from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period stood at CNY3,159,500, an increase of CNY2,440,600 compared with the same period of the previous year. This big year-on-year increase was mainly due to the early termination of lease contracts and the cancellation of right-of-use assets during the reporting period. 8 Quarterly Report 2024 Q1 of Yunnan Botanee Bio-Technology Group Co., Ltd. (12) The Company’s income tax from the beginning of the year to the end of the reporting period stood at CNY22,507,600, an increase of CNY3,553,600 or about 18.75% compared with the same period of the previous year, mainly due to the increased corporate income tax as the sales scale and total profits increased. 3.
