However, our gross profit decreased to $175,496 during the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $684,643 in the same period of 2008, representing $509,147 or 74% increase. The gross margin also decreased from 8.9% to 1.6%. The decrease both in gross profit and gross margin contributed to the reasons as follows: (1) financial crisis take effect to the cell phone and calling cards demand in China mainland and Macau; (2) selling our products at negative margin to close our Wuhan Branch, Beijing Branch and Zhengzhou Branches due to their un-expected performance.
Our selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A expenses") were $917,266 during the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to $872,189 during the same period of 2008, representing an increase of $54,923 or approximately 6%. The slight increase in SG&A expenses are generally resulted from the sales increase.
During first quarter of 2009, we recorded a net loss of $756,446, as compared to a net loss of $416,757 during the three months ended March 31, 2008. The increase of net loss is mainly due to decrease of gross profit as explained above.
"Financial crisis does hit our business significantly like most of other sectors. We have taken measures to lower our losses such as cut-off un- profitable branches in order to concentrate our resources into profit-making business. Q1 2009 is difficult for Guangzhou Global, but we will continue to try our best to grow in terms of revenue and market size even in the bad market conditions. Our managements are also shaping themselves to be comfort with new challenges," said CEO Li Yankuan.
