Revenues
We generated revenues primarily from manufacture and sales of nutraceutical and dietary supplements made of Lucidum spore powder and others. As of September 30, 2020, we marketed and sold approximately 32 kinds of nutraceutical and dietary supplements products with “Blue Caps” approved by State Food and Drug Administration of PRC (“SFDA”) encompassing over 200 distributors in 27 different provinces and 30 experience stores in China. Revenues decreased by $9,480,312 or 30.2%, to $21,877,234 for the six months ended September 30, 2020 from $31,357,546 for the six months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease was primarily attributed to sales drop of Cordyceps mycelia products, Ejiao solution products, Vitamins and dietary supplements products, and American ginseng products, due to declining retail market, heavier competition and lower pricing in traditional nutrition products market.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue decreased by $3,232,734 or 20.8%, from $15,532,065 for the six months ended September 30, 2019 to $12,299,331 for the six months ended September 30, 2020.

Selling and Marketing Expenses
The selling expenses increased by $106,623, or 3.0%, from $3,593,053 for the six months ended September 30, 2019 to $3,699,676 for the six months ended September 30, 2020, The slight increase was primarily due to more subsidy to experience stores for the six months ended September 30, 2020.
General and Administrative Expenses
The general and administrative expenses increased from $1,275,679 for the six months ended September 30, 2019 to $1,441,736 for the six months ended September 30, 2020, representing a slight increase of $166,057, or 13.0%. The increase was primarily due to expenses of our Cayman entity, mainly consisting of professional service charges and repayment to related parties.
Research and Development Expenses
The research and development expenses decreased from $1,134,505 for the six months ended September 30, 2019 to $746,898 for the six months ended September 30, 2020, representing a decrease of $387,606, or 34.2%. The decrease was primarily due to an absence of all research staff because of the travel restrictions during COVID-19 pandemic and volatile supply of research raw materials.
Income from Operations
The income from operations decreased from $9,822,244 for the six months ended September 30, 2019 to $3,689,593 for the six months ended September 30, 2020, representing a decrease of $6,132,651, or 62.4%. The decrease was primarily due to decrease in revenue as a result of sluggish retail market for the six months ended September 30, 2020.
