We have two sides of our business. We have a majority interest in a pharmaceutical company that produces over 100 drugs. 95% are antibiotic finished goods that are distributed throughout China. It is a very profitable business with over $60 million in revenue in 2009. It is a great platform for growth because China is going through healthcare reform and is putting $124 billion into healthcare over the next couple of years, increasing access points of care… - Dr. Robin L. Smith, M.D., MBA (NBS) (Interview published June 18, 2010) |
