With this designation, China Pharma is entitled to a preferential tax rate of 15 percent for the coming three years, which is notably lower than the statutory income tax rate of 25 percent.

According to the Enterprise Income Tax Law of the People's Republic of China, implemented on January 1, 2008, the statutory tax rate is 25%. However, as a High-Tech enterprise, the Company will benefit from a preferential tax rate of 15% for a defined period of time.
"We are pleased to pass the rigorous national evaluation process that has led to this privileged distinction," remarked Ms. Zhilin Li, President and CEO of the Company. "We will be eligible for a preferential tax rate for the next three years, as well as a government subsidy for innovative programs.
