Importance:

Additionally, an increase in financing scale has led to higher interest expenses. The increase in impairment losses is mainly due to the slowdown in the construction pace of domestic IDCs, the longer project implementation cycle has led to slow settlement and collection cycles, resulting in an increase in bad debt provisions. Due to the change in the revenue mix in the first quarter, the gross profit margin decreased by 2.16% year-on-year. The first quarter had abundant orders but was unable to achieve higher shipments and revenue recognition.
