China Yongxin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Reports Record Second Quarter 2008 Financial Results

CHANGCHUN, China and LOS ANGELES, Aug. 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- China Yongxin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: CYXN) ('China Yongxin Pharmaceuticals' or 'the Company'), a leading manufacturer, distributor and retailer of pharmaceuticals in Northeastern China, recently reported its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2008.

    Second Quarter 2008 Highlights:

    -- Net revenues increased approximately 15% to $14.58 million
    -- Gross profit increased approximately 16% to $2.85 million
    -- Net income before minority interest increased approximately 36% to
       $1.21 million
    -- Cost of sales decreased

Mr. Yongxin Liu, Chairman and CEO of China Yongxin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. commenting on the quarter stated, "We are pleased with our overall results, which were driven, once again, by our diversification strategy's success in expanding beyond our core wholesale business and into higher margin initiatives, such as our growing chain of retail drug stores. We believe this business model will enable us to rapidly increase our market penetration and, as a result, increase our revenue and earnings during the second half of 2008.

"In China, retail pharmaceutical sales are projected to grow at 20% per year to over $30 billion by 2011. Combined with a strong network of over 3500 medical institutions, secondary medicine distribution companies and retail buyers of our company's products, our business should continue to flourish as China's up and coming middle class continue to demand higher quality products and natural and organic alternatives," added Mr. Liu.

Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2008 and 2007.

For the three months ended June 30, 2008, our net revenues increased approximately 15% from $12,699,461 to $14,580,500 relative to the same period ended June 30, 2007.

      $632,058 for the three month period ended June 30, 2007 to $963,352 for

      compared to $587,915 for the three month period ended June 30, 2008, an
      increase of 50%.  This increase is due to an increase in operations of
      the Company.
