Redundancies safety systems have been 40 testified by the abundance of real flights now we're entering into the next day stage of development from a pure OEM provider professional products and technologies to our plants from operators setting necessary rules and the standard before commercial operations since.

To achieve this goal we still have a lot to do numerous save flights have laid a solid foundation for us to start at a mass production. We have just completed the public trial flights for verifying and demonstrating the U.M. use cases in Korea, which helps to generate new orders from the Korean markets.

Quality of our HBV is always remains our top priority since our current production facility can no longer meet the needs of the mass production.

We decided to build a new production facility in Guangdong with.

With an area of 40000 square meters and the planned the initial annual capacity of 600 per units passenger great age more important we will we established a complete set of industry standards and systems from design production and operations and we will devote ourselves to a design.

216 reached a 23 units to where the newly launched a year from 206 F. a firefighting version of 801 six.

This version is especially designed a JV for aerial firefighting solution, especially for high rise buildings in the recent the secular properties to buy the Chinas based comes from its stressed the need of information for emergency response to fires with application of elite technologies.

So we believe the launch of the homes was six AFE was the right time to meet the potential market demand.

With the operational attitude of up to 600 meters. The hunt Onesix AFE is superior to conventional extinguisher equipment before high rise buyers.

Given our large payload ear onto one six F is awards first Avi for aerial firefighting.

It can carry 150 metres of extinguishing foams and six fire projectiles in a single trip.

Okay close to management techniques allow us to operate the HBV in a fleet smoothed the remote ground control stations.

So far we see significant the market demands and strong interest from China's emergency management, the departments and fire departments at all levels.

In September.

We launched another new product you hoped Onesix channel.

Every or logistic a version of the 201 six.

This isn't a multi mode or ASV was a record the payload for short to medium haul air logistics in both urban and rural areas.

This model open up a more commercial opportunities so various urban and rural area logistically use is not a required frequent and appointed point deliveries, including large parcel deliveries the agricultural product transportation offshore transportation every emergency response.

And disaster relief et cetera.

Now I will turn it over to our CFO Mr. rich our little to provide the financial details for this quarter.

Rich our please go ahead. Thank you.

Thank you Edward and Hello to everyone on the call before I go into details about our financial results. This know that low numbers presented are in RMB and percentage changes refer to year over year comparisons unless otherwise specified.

Detailed analysis is contained in our earnings press release, which is available on our IR website.

Im going to highlight some of the key points here.

We achieved the highest quarterly revenue and gross profit in the company's history this quarter.

Total revenues were $71 million up 104.3% year over year.

With growth across the main revenue streams.

Our core business of Air mobility solutions represented 49% of the total revenues.

South of the home to 16, the Companys flagship technically we reached 23 units, including two units of the firefighting version.

Hum to succeed.

Compared with 18 units in Q3 non here.

Gross profit was $42 million up 120.3% growth margin reached as high as 59.2% up 4.3 percentage points from 54.9% in Q3 last year.

This was mainly driven by the optimization of cost structure of certain products and changes in revenue mix.

This reflects our comparative value, resulting from our leadership and the first mover advantage in the industry.

Adjusted operating expenses, excluding share based compensation increased by 41.2% to $37.9 million.

As a percentage of total revenue was 53.4% as compared to 77.3% in Q3 2019.

The increases were mainly due to higher R&D expenses related to the continuously strength and product development efforts and additional DNA expenses relative to public company operations and approve them provisions in light of proven IP development.

As revenues continue to ramp up there's operating leverage that supports our path towards operating profitability.

Along this line we have again achieved the quarterly adjusted operating profitability. This quarter. Following Q4 last year are.

Adjusted operating profit was $4.5 million compared with adjusted operating loss of 7.4 million in Q3 2019.

Adjusted operating margin was 6.4% compared to negative 21.2% in Q3 last year with.

We're further achieved 5.3 million adjusted net income with a net margin of 7.4% compared with adjusted net loss of 7 million in the same period last year.

Looking at our balance sheet and cash flow, we ended the quarter with roughly 243 million in cash cash equivalent and short term investments.

Overall, the financial results in Q3 was solid with record high quarterly revenues and gross profit and then we will achieve the second quarterly adjusted operating profit and net income. Despite the continued impact from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Now, let's turn to the outlook due to continuous current uncertainties surrounding the impacts and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic in China and international markets. We are adjusting our outlook for 2022 analysts the 50% growth in annual revenues.

Having said that we have become more optimistic and confident in our long term growth outlook given the increase in practical uses of and demand for a lease and a strong growth government emphasis on supporting the industry growth in the global you have markets, especially in China with.

Thank you management for taking my question I have three questions are the from.

This one is about the governments support and the the regulation so with regard to the securities by the State Council PRC have how do we see any progress made in the revenue.

Regulatory from.

In terms of like the subsidy or incentive for manufacturers and my second question is about the margin trends post Colgate with the new firefighting products line as we have already stopped selling these paula.

And my third question is actually above the guidance we.

Actually we we being the beginning of the year. We set we will have the guidance is at least 200%. So obviously doing the due to the cold that we see in this earnings we set that we are going to make a lower into 250% like still pretty high number, but a big difference compared that with the new.

A member we previous that so I'm wondering.

Aegis.

Because.

Well, let's just leave it to others to jump start the slot floor in wishing Blessedly Sobi concordance late evening.

Yeah.

Uh huh.

Sure.

True yes.

Yes.

Okay. So for your first question, maybe I'll I'll I'll explain.

So it's very clear that so we see more and more positive attitude our messages sent by the government, including you know the CCC understand Oh, no Oh I see recently selected 30 cities to be based element.

No city or Almond aviation.

Zone in China and specifically.

Yes.

We had the connection with the three of them and this award give us a good opportunity to apply our Holland I think and also these are.

<unk> expense.

Oh process for certification and more importantly.

Last week, we had to the state Council's suffered our quickest stress the three points. One is that it did specifically mention that Julie and development day on to be a national strategy in China I understand that the government a few.

The average because.

Net Korea, and Japan, all countries I will elevated that leaves you and well take into their national strategy, and so China or that the government is very good to hear that come into realize Lisa Palmer and also the.

The potential for this industry, so after including you and.

And each with a national strategy this low.

Be a very important critical factor for the department of the whole industry and understand that we are the industry leader and so we should be a key beneficiary of these positive trends and secondly to specifically mention that.

Okay.

The acceleration from that of.

Of the legislation or the Uribe in China, given the fast development industry and so we understand that.

Pools.

Just like you framework, we will do more code for the industry and the third.

Specifically mentioned that before the fire fighting and emergency service.

Hi, not when we need to adopt the technology of the UBI and just at the right time, we launched the firefighting version of Antoine fixed so which come just to meet the demand for such a product and so three outward the points of that like housewares.

Suffer.

Our very positive messages for it.

Thank you.

On the discovery channel I'm going to take.

Second question.

In respect of our gross margins, we have seen our growth margin maintained at a stable level off from.

80% Pos since we started the commercial delivery in the first half of last year if.

If you look at other electric co transportation technology products, such as non electrical cars, our gross margin is much higher.

So our English back off our new model of finding model.

The gross margin is expected to be in line with Oh, we got off from.

Other existing models.

And the overall is expected our gross margin.

Well be maintained at a similar level of 50% path going forward.

And your third question on the basically.

We adjusted the 2020 annual revenue guidance, mainly because the extended impacts October 19 pandemic.

Cost delays not is a development.

Mainly including ours.

So our CEO misinformation come from.

Handset and infrastructure is needed for operational service.

On some of our customers have been developing the infrastructure, including a vertical.

The original plan was to complete infrastructure and in Q4.

Due to the extended coli.

Wholly dependent.

If I'm out the infrastructure has being delayed resulting postponed.

From a pickup from products into next year.

Second are.

We really the fire fighting model at the handoff on July after that has attracted from interest from emergency management departments and high finding from customers actually theres, increasing number of potential orders in discussion.

However, because this is such a requirement.

Carlos.

Restaurants per.

Certification before officials Nols.

The back.

We have been trying to salary the certification process after.

After the release in July in order to recover from loss due to the the virus outbreak.

And aim to get it before the year end.

As the a and E. coli outbreak research now.

Now it is expected.

Net accretion.

We completed an EPS next can too so.

So the south plan out cease fire.

Operating model in.

Robin 20 has.

Onto next year.

And third at the beginning of the year.

It was planned for the European markets to generate important business lead and our revenues for.

For the school, we not only from a local operating teams, but also upping on the flight permits.

I talked to one in Norway and established partnership with two.

Two Spanish cities.

But the most severe from.

That makes situation in Europe hindered our business execution.

Although in Q3, we had hi, how fast to speed up the execution to make up for the time lost the rebounded.

Ensenada rebounded and in Europe.

No hindered us again so.

So to sum up based on the book.

Thats great valuation, we adjusted the.

The guidance for pro from purpose average.

So that it is expected to be a temporary situation.

As our CEO point out.

Based on our on your department, especially the latest breakthroughs.

Breakthroughs of the Chinese governments policy that strategies.

We are more confident in.

In the company's sustained long term fast growth prospects.

Okay. So I'll answer the question. Thank you.

Yes, very much thank you very much.

Thank you.

Next question is from the line of Ivan loans Wellington Management. Please go ahead.

Hi, Good evening, Hi, Ed Wood I missed.

So so maybe going back to a few questions before and just trying to understand your business model.

Can you can you kind of give us a sense of how are you.

Begun yet.

Kind of following up.

Come on control Center model.

And how that is impacting your kind of receivables. So if I do look at your outstanding receivables at the end of the quarter.

Quite a substantial increase from the corresponding period. So I just wanted to understand how your business model.

Moving.

What are your credit.

I think the last time, we spoke.

To manage the command control expense.

Like six months, and then transfer or kind of.

The.

The local government.

And then things equal from there. So can you just kind of explain and give us some background.

Yes.

Thank you.

Okay fine Okay. Let me translate these are thrown missed the one day you will take that question.

So far.

We are not saying that were going to change our business model. We just added new business to our existing platform. For example, previously we were OEM provider a we didn't match true.

Right.

So after we understand that we now we have been true operating a these are platforms by ourselves.

Hi from that so we we are changing from from a pure or airline a manufacturing company into an operating company so sort of true.

This model with integrated.

Oh warmer dryer tragedy, a woman from Victor.

Many countries are the public with transportation has been suspended due to the operating cost of hours a day.

But the individual.

Mobility, a touch location becomes an important so yeah, providing.

So we believe the launches that was six AFE was the right time to meet the potential market demand.

Now I will turn it over to our CFO Mr., which are new to provide the financial details for this quarter.

Rich our please go ahead. Thank you.

Thank you Edward and Hello to everyone on the call before I go into details about our financial results. Please note that all numbers presented are in RMB and percentage changes refer to year over year comparisons unless otherwise specified.

Detailed analysis is contained in our earnings press release, which is available on our IR website.

Im going to highlight some of the key points here.

We achieved the highest quarterly revenue and gross profit in the company's history this quarter.

Total revenues were 71 million ups, 104.3% year over year.

With growth across the main revenue streams.

Our core business of Air mobility solutions represented 49% of the total revenues.

South of the home to 16, the Companys flagship technically we reached 23 units.

Including two units of the firefighting version.

Hum to 16.

Compared with 18 units in Q3 last year growth.

Gross profit was $42 million up 120.3% growth margin rich as high as 59.2%.

4.3 percentage points from 54.9% in Q3 last year.

This was mainly driven by the optimization of cost structure of certain products and changes in revenue mix.

This reflects our competitive value, resulting from our leadership and the first mover advantage in the industry.

Adjusted operating expenses, excluding share based compensation increased by 41.2% to.

$37.9 million.

As a percentage of total revenue was 53.4% as compared to 77.3% in Q3 2019.

The increases were mainly due to higher R&D expenses related to the continuously strength and product development efforts and addition, OTN expenses related to public company operations and the proof than provisions in light of coordinating involvement.

As revenues continue to ramp up there is operating leverage that supports our path towards operating profitability.

Along this line we have again achieved the quarterly adjusted operating profitability. This quarter following Q4 last year.

Adjusted operating profit was $4.5 million compared with adjusted operating loss of 7.4 million in Q3 2019.

Adjusted operating margin was 6.4% compared to negative 21.2% in Q3 last year were.

We further achieved 5.3 million adjusted net income with a net margin of 7.4% compared with adjusted net loss of 7 million in the same period last year.

Looking at our balance sheet and cash flow, we ended the quarter with roughly 243 million in cash cash equivalent and short term investments.

Overall, the financial results in Q3 was solid with record high quarterly revenues and gross profit and we will achieve the second quarterly adjusted operating profit and net income. Despite the continued impact from the COVID-19 can damage.

Now, let's turn to the outlook due to continue as current uncertainty surrounding the impacts and duration of equipment I think economics in China and international markets. We are adjusting our outlook for 2022 at least a 50% growth in annual revenues.

Having said that we have become more optimistic and confident in our long term growth outlook given the increase in practical uses and demand for a lease and the strong growth government emphasis on supporting the industry growth in the global you have markets, especially in China.

With that we conclude our prepared remarks for today, let's now open the call for questions. Operator. Please go ahead.

And specifically in China, we are cooperating we are.

Operating a hour your contractor, including the lending manual path and the reports et cetera, so with more Oh fuck infrastructure being built.

We are going to build a more complete from network and so that's where the individual customers or passengers can use our service more conveniently.

So you're probably right I never candle woman the notion that from alpha comfortable holding off once you increase the lateral I don't know the yield ultimately accrete a true.

Scientists of drill accounts are sound.

Total debt ultra.

Okay.

Good day.

Good day.

From 200 comes from.

You Wonder Notionally not true.

So in the future.

Revenue to see more and more of our income uncomfortable centers in fuel price.

Different people.

So these were not only from coke operations or how to one passenger but.

But also cash how to improve that possibly management for the local government and which you might generate from more revenue is for us.

Is it off the handing over or.

What is the usual sort of.

Net films that's one.

Video base I O E sort of integration with smart cities, where for example, or traffic management is managed by stationary cameras for example.

But they're also talking about a control center based on kind of fixed camera.

Placements across various key parts of the city.

How do kind of local governments think about these multiple solutions. They go from mobile solution like yours.

Are you talking to companies like this to kind of come up with a better and more integrated solution. If you can kind of give us an insight on how this is playing out with the government's that'd be great.

Okay, let me translate or that I can't force.

Out of low portal.

We're going to keep going from one of the patient so I'm wondering if.

And Additionally, the government may consider purchasing more leads from us not only the Johan twice six passenger everybody some industrial applications.

For example, the three D.

I will be one of the functions out of the government will need and it's so Meanwhile, we are also going to provide as a training services.
