“Looking at our wholesale business, we maintained focus on upgrading customer portfolio to reduce credit risk and improve margin in light of weak micro-environment and enhancing our account receivables.

First Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Total sales for the first quarter of 2020 were $58.4 million, a decrease of 33.7% from $88.0 million in the first quarter of 2019. This decrease was primarily driven by a 20.7% decrease in our wholesale business and a 39.7% decrease in our retail business.

Sales for the Company’s wholesale division decreased by 20.7% to $22.3 million for the first quarter of 2020, compared with       $28.1 million for the first quarter of 2019.

Sales for the Company’s branded fashion apparel retail division decreased by 39.7% to $36.1 million for the first quarter of 2020, compared with $59.9 million for the first quarter of 2019.

Total gross profit for the first quarter of 2020 decreased by 45.4% to $16.0 million, compared with $29.4 million for the first quarter of 2019. Total gross margin decreased to 27.5% from 33.4% for the first quarter of 2019.
