● On September 9, 2022, the Company received a Staff determination letter (the “Letter”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company of the Staff’s determination to delist the Company’s securities from The Nasdaq Capital Market due to its failure to regain compliance with the $1 Bid Rule within the 180 calendar day Compliance Period. On November 30, 2022, the Company has been notified by the Office of the General Counsel of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC that the Company has regained compliance with the $1 per share bid price requirement of Listed Securities required for continued listing as set forth in Listing Rule 5450(a)(1). The Company will remain under the Mandatory Panel Monitor until June 9, 2023, imposed by a previous Hearings Panel’s decision on June 9, 2022.
Dr. Chris Yu, Co-CEO of AnPac Bio commented: “The first half year of 2022 was challenging due to COVID-19, especially in Shanghai area between early March to early May, 2022, which affected our business and resulted in reduced paid cancer tests and hence revenue. However, we had a very strong June, 2022 in paid cancer tests. We have also made significant efforts in reducing our costs including head counts, which has been effective and resulted in our reduced loss. We continue to advance our CDA technology in a number of areas including our multi-year follow-up study in enrolled individuals who had CDA tests. We reported multi-year clinical trial results in our CDA technology for lung cancer treatment prognosis in April’s American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) conference. In the third quarter, we worked closely with our three selected hospitals for completing remaining paper work for third class medical device clinical trials (assisting in diagnosis for lung cancer utility). We also aggressively pushed marketing and sales in the second half year. The second half year is traditionally our stronger season in paid cancer testing compared with the first half year. Further, overall, we did not lose major customers in the first half year. Instead, those customers postponed the paid cancer tests to the second half year. In addition, due to our strong cost reduction efforts in the first half of year, we expect that our costs will continue to reduce and loss will further narrow.”
Key Items of Financial Results the First Half of 2022
Going concern Uncertainty
The Group’s principal sources of liquidity have been cash generated from financing and operating activities. As of June 30, 2022, the Group had RMB6,890 (US$1,029) of cash and cash equivalents and a working capital deficit of RMB5,391 (US$805). For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2022, the Group incurred continuous losses of RMB57,689 and RMB48,815 (US$7,289), respectively. The recent resurgence of COVID-19 and lockdown policies in Shanghai, China also has negative impact on the Group’s operation. The above-mentioned facts raise substantial doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. In assessing its liquidity, management monitors and analyzes the Group’s cash on-hand, its ability to generate sufficient revenue sources in the future, and its operating and capital expenditure commitments. With respect to capital funding requirements, the Group budgeted capital spending based on ongoing assessments of needs to maintain adequate cash. The Group intends to finance its future working capital requirements and capital expenditures from financing activities until the Group’s operating activities generate positive cash flows, if ever. Management expects continuous capital financing through debt or equity issuances to support its working capital requirements
The Group can make no assurances that required financings will be available for the amounts needed, or on terms commercially acceptable to the Group, if at all. If one or all of these events does not occur or subsequent capital raises are insufficient to bridge financial and liquidity shortfall, there would likely be a material adverse effect on the Group and its financial statements.
Revenues
Total revenues decreased by 43.7% or approximately RMB 4.0 million to approximately RMB5.2 million (US$779,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from approximately RMB9.3 million for the same period of 2021, primarily due to a significant decrease of approximately RMB5.5 million in our revenue from cancer screening and detection tests, offset by an increase of approximately RMB1.2 million in revenue from technology service we started from the second half fiscal year of 2021.
Significant decrease in revenue from cancer screening and detection tests was driven by a decrease of 50.9% in the average selling price year over year, primarily due to focusing on more conventional cancer detection tests at lower prices and a decrease of 17.9% in volume of cancer screening and detection tests compared to the same period of 2021, caused by COVID-19 lockdown in Shanghai from late March 2022 to end of May 2022.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues decreased by 48.7% to approximately RMB1.8 million (US$274,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from approximately RMB3.6 million for the same period of 2021, primarily due to the decrease of approximately RMB2.2 million cost of revenue from cancer screening and detection test, which was in line with the decrease in our revenue from sales of cancer screening and detection tests. Offset by the increased cost of revenues from technology services and retail products was approximately RMB441,000, no such cost incurred for the same period of 2021.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross margin was 64.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, representing an increase from 61.4% for the same period of 2021, primarily due to higher gross margin in technology service. The gross margin is 72.5% for the technology service, which is higher than the average gross margin for other revenue streams. Technology service is a new revenue stream since the second half year of fiscal year 2021, which led to the increase of the total gross margin for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
Selling and marketing expenses decreased by 50.5% to approximately RMB5.4 million (US$800,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from approximately RMB10.8 million for the same period of 2021, primarily due to less marketing activities caused by COVID-19 in Shanghai.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses decreased by 22.9% to approximately RMB4.3 million (US$646,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from approximately RMB5.6 million for the same period of 2021, primarily due to a decrease of RMB 583,000 in share base compensation and a decrease of RMB 580,000 in testing materials expense due to less research and development activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period of 2021.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased by 42.8% to approximately RMB23.8 million (US$3.6 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2022 from approximately RMB41.6 million for the same period of 2021, primarily due to a decrease of RMB 10.5 million in share-based compensation and a decrease of RMB3.4 in professional consulting expenses.
Change in fair value of convertible debt
The Company recognized the convertible debt at fair value. For the six months ended June 30 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized an aggregated unrealized gain of approximately RMB139,000 (US$21,000) and an aggregated unrealized loss of approximately RMB4.3 million, respectively, due to changes in fair value of convertible debt.
Impairment of intangible assets and goodwill
On August 15, 2021, the Company completed a step acquisition of 60% equity interest in Anpai Shanghai, consisting of an acquisition of 40% equity interest of Anpai Shanghai acquired from Dr. Chang Yu. Due to the slow development of Anpai Shanghai, the Company evaluated the recoverability of long-lived assets by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition and determined that the fair value of intangible assets of Anpai Shanghai. was nil. Therefore, the Company impaired the intangible assets acquired from the acquisition of Anpai Shanghai of RMB7.9 million (US$1.2 million) and goodwill of RMB12.8 million (US$1.9 million).
Net Loss
Net loss decreased to approximately RMB48.8 million (US$7.3 million) for the six months ended June 30, compared to approximately RMB57.7 million for the same period of 2021.

Balance Sheet
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately RMB6.9 million (US$1.0 million), compared to approximately RMB9.3 million as of December 31, 2021.

The guidance requires the lessee to record operating leases on the balance sheet with a right-of-use asset and corresponding liability for future payment obligations.

Subsequent events

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Non-GAAP net loss is calculated as net income adjusted for change in fair value of convertible debts and share-based compensation expense. The non-GAAP financial measures are presented to enhance investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s financial performance and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the historical non-GAAP financial measures to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. As non-GAAP financial measures have material limitations as analytical metrics and may not be calculated in the same manner by all companies, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. In light of the foregoing limitations, you should not consider non-GAAP financial measures as a substitute for, or superior to, such metrics in accordance with US GAAP.
