谢谢Tony,也感谢各位参与本次电话会议。接下来,我代表管理层总结2017年第三季度的一些关键财务业绩。同时,我会不时提及与各类产品相关的特定生产线。我会明确说明我所指的是哪些产品。不过,作为参考,我们生产线的编号系统已在我们的收益新闻稿以及收益电话会议演示文稿的第17页中提供。现在,让我们来看一下2017年第三季度的财务表现。请翻到第7页。2017年第三季度,总收入下降10.6%至3350万美元,原因是各产品销售量的下降,部分被混合平均售价的上涨所抵消。翻到第8页。2017年第三季度,CMP部门(包括常规CMP和轻质CMP)创造了2740万美元的收入,占总收入的81.8%。其中2240万美元的收入来自我们的常规CMP产品,500万美元来自轻质CMP。CMP部门的销量下降34.1%至53,375吨,其中43,202吨为常规CMP,10,173吨为轻质CMP。常规CMP的平均售价(ASP)上涨59.4%至每吨518美元,而轻质CMP的平均售价上涨47.9%至每吨491美元。翻到第9页。2017年第三季度,我们的胶版印刷纸部门创造了550万美元的收入,占总收入的13.3%。我们在第三季度发运了8,035吨胶版印刷纸,较去年同期下降43.9%。胶版印刷纸的平均售价小幅上涨5.9%至每吨679美元。翻到第10页。2017年第三季度,生活用纸部门创造了70万美元的销售额,较去年同期下降59.5%。我们在第三季度发运了493吨生活用纸,较去年同期下降62.8%。平均售价为每吨1,339美元,较去年同期高出9.1%。2017年第三季度,我们没有数码相纸的收入,而去年同期因销售38吨数码相纸(平均售价为每吨1,702美元)产生了6万美元的收入。2016年9月,由于我们产品的市场需求低迷,我们暂停了数码相纸的生产,目前正在升级生产线,以生产更具竞争力的数码打印、医疗超声和摄影工作室用相纸产品。我们预计将在近期完成生产线升级并开始试生产。第11页总结了我们的收入结构变化。2017年第三季度,总销售成本下降380万美元至2630万美元,导致总毛利润为720万美元(去年同期为730万美元),整体毛利率为21.6%,较去年上升2个百分点。2017年第三季度,销售、一般及行政费用(SG&A)小幅增长1.2%至280万美元。2017年第三季度,运营收入为270万美元,而去年同期为470万美元。运营利润率为8.1%,去年同期为12.6%。2017年第三季度,净利润为160万美元,或每股基本和稀释收益0.07美元。去年同期净利润为300万美元,或每股基本和稀释收益0.14美元。2017年第三季度,EBITDA下降200万美元至650万美元,去年同期为850万美元。现在转向年初至今的财务业绩。截至2017年9月30日的九个月,总收入下降21.1%至8160万美元,这完全是由于所有产品类别销售量的下降,部分被混合平均售价的上涨所抵消。中国政府对我们的产量限制在2017年前九个月仍然有效。截至2017年9月30日的九个月,CMP部门(包括常规CMP和轻质CMP)创造了6620万美元的收入,占总收入的81.1%。其中5570万美元的收入来自我们的常规CMP产品,1040万美元来自轻质CMP。CMP部门的销量下降29.5%至153,384吨,其中128,988吨为常规CMP,24,396吨为轻质CMP。常规CMP的平均售价上涨32.7%至每吨432美元,而轻质CMP的平均售价也上涨28.9%至每吨128美元。截至2017年9月30日的九个月,我们的胶版印刷纸部门创造了3030万美元的收入,占总收入的15.3%。截至2017年9月30日的九个月,我们发运了20,098吨胶版印刷纸,较去年同期下降51.5%。胶版印刷纸的平均售价小幅上涨1.9%至每吨652美元。截至2017年9月30日的九个月,生活用纸部门创造了210万美元的销售额,较去年同期的470万美元下降35.7%。生活用纸销量为1,619吨,平均售价为每吨1,289美元,而去年同期销量为3,788吨,平均售价为每吨1,245美元。2017年前九个月,我们没有数码相纸的收入,而去年同期因销售372吨数码相纸(平均售价为每吨1,786美元)产生了70万美元的收入。截至2017年9月30日的九个月,总销售成本下降2010万美元至5520万美元,导致总毛利润为1630万美元,较去年下降9.2%,整体毛利率为29%,较去年上升2.6个百分点。截至2017年9月30日的九个月,销售、一般及行政费用(SG&A)为830万美元,去年同期为960万美元。截至2017年9月30日的九个月,运营收入下降23.6%至640万美元。运营利润率为7.8%,去年同期为8%。截至2017年9月30日的九个月,净利润为330万美元,或每股基本和稀释收益0.15美元,去年同期净利润为420万美元,或每股基本和稀释收益0.20美元。截至2017年6月30日的九个月,EBITDA下降270万美元至1730万美元,去年同期为2010万美元。翻到第19页和第20页。让我们看一下资产负债表和流动性。截至2017年9月30日,公司拥有现金及现金等价物、短期债务(包括关联方贷款和资本租赁义务)、长期债务(包括关联方贷款)分别为650万美元、1410万美元、0美元、600万美元和1420万美元,而2016年底分别为230万美元、510万美元、880万美元、220万美元和1490万美元。截至2017年9月30日,净应收账款为10万美元,净库存为960万美元,而2016年底分别为390万美元和560万美元。截至2017年9月30日,公司的净营运资本赤字为100万美元,而2016年底为610万美元。2017年前九个月,经营活动产生的净现金为1680万美元,而去年同期经营活动使用的净现金为860万美元。2017年前九个月,投资活动使用的净现金为760万美元,去年同期为770万美元。2017年前九个月,融资活动使用的净现金为540万美元,而去年同期融资活动使用的净现金为220万美元。如果您有任何问题,请通过电子邮件ir@orientpaperinc.com与我们联系。管理层将尽快通过电子邮件回复您的问题。主持人,请继续。

Thanks, Tony, and thanks, everyone, for being on the call. Next, on behalf of the management team, I will summarize some key financial results for the third quarter of 2017. Also I will occasionally refer to specific production lines associated with various products. I will make clear to which products I am referring to. For reference though, the numbering system for our production lines is provided in our earnings press release and on slide 17 its earnings call presentation. Now let's look at our financial performance for the third quarter of 2017. Please turn to slide number 7. For the third quarter of 2017, total revenue decreased to 10.6% to $33.5 million due to a decrease in sales volumes across our products partly and partially offset by increase in blended average selling prices. Turning to slide 8. For the third quarter of 2017, the CMP segment, including both regular CMP and light-weight CMP generated revenue of $27.4 million, representing 81.8% of total revenues. $22.4 million of revenue was from our regular CMP products and $5 million was from light-weight CMP. Revenue for CMP segment decreased by 34.1% to 53,375 tonnes, of which 43,202 tonnes was regular CMP and 10,173 tonnes was light-weight CMP. Average selling price, or ASP, for regular CMP increased by 59.4%to $518 per tonne, while ASP for light-weight CMP increased to 47.9% to $491 tonne. Turning to slide 9. For the third quarter of 2017, our offset printing paper segment generated revenue of $5.5 million, representing 13.3% of the total revenue. We shipped 8,035 tonnes offset printing paper in the third quarter, decreased to 43.9% from the same period of last year. ASP for offset printing paper increased slightly by 5.9% to $679 per tonne. Turning to slide 10. For the third quarter of 2017, tissue paper segment generated sales of $0.7 million, down 59.5% from the same period last year. We shipped 493 tonnes tissue paper during the third quarter, decreased to 62.8% from the same period last year. ASP was $1,339 per tonne, which was 9.1% higher than the same period last year. We had no revenue from digital photo paper for the third quarter of 2017, compared to $0.06 resulting from sales of 38 tonnes at an ASP of 1,702 per tonne in the same period of last year. In September 2016, we suspended the production of digital photo paper due to low market demand for our products and are now upgrading the production line to produce more competitive photo paper products here in digital printing, medical ultrasound and photographic studios. We expected to complete the upgrade of production line and commence the trial production in the near future. Slide number 11 summarizes the changes in our revenue mix. For the third quarter of 2017, total cost of sales decreased by $3.8 million to $26.3 million, leading to total gross profit of $7.2 million from $7.3 million for the same period last year, and overall gross margin of 21.6% increased by 2 percentage points from the last year.
