    in addition, China's four pharmaceutical companies Yunnan White Pharmaceuticals (ranked 37), China Biopharmaceuticals (ranked 42), Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceutical (43), Shanghai Pharmaceutical Group (48) on the list   Compared with last year's TOP50 global rankings, Yunnan white medicine rose the fastest, last year not in the list, this year has jumped to 37, China's biopharmaceutical ranking unchanged, Hengrui Pharmaceutical sipulsible ranking rose 4 places, Shanghai Pharmaceutical Group's latest list   Yunnan White Medicine's 2019 annual report shows that in 2019, operating income and home-to-home net profit were about 29.66 billion yuan and 4.18 billion yuan, respectively, with yoY growth rates of about 9.8% and 19.8%, respectively, while net profit was 2.29 billion yuan, down 22.9% YoY 2019Q4 operating income and net profit attributed to the parent son were about 8 billion yuan and 640 million yuan, respectively, with yoY growth rates of about 13.9% and 225%, respectively   By sector, the pharmaceutical industry and commerce were about 11.02 billion yuan and 18.55 billion yuan, respectively, with year-on-year growth rates of about 1.9% and 16.5%, respectively According to the sub-sector, the provincial pharmaceutical company is about 19 billion yuan (16.4%), the pharmaceutical division is about 4.4 billion yuan (-3%), the Health Division is about 4.68 billion yuan (plus 4.8%), and the Chinese medicine resources division is about 1.37 billion yuan (flat), which is in line with expectations   As a large pharmaceutical company with a large body, Yunnan White Medicine is still growing at a relatively fast rate, which is one of the reasons why it entered the TOP50 global pharmaceutical rankings this year without being listed last year   Although China's biopharmaceutical ranking remained unchanged, Hengrui Pharmaceuticals rose 4 places to 43, with its 2019 annual report showing revenue of 23.289 billion yuan, up 33.70 percent yoy, and net profit attributed to parents was 5.328 billion yuan, up 31.05 percent year-on-year   In the rankings, Henri Pharma's apatimini, heptafluorane and right-hand metormia were among its best-selling drugs, with sales of $336 million, $287 million and $233 million, respectively   As far as the final sales of the best-selling drugs are concerned, the sales of Chinese pharmaceutical companies are still far from the top 10, according to medical geographic statistics, the sales revenue of the top 10 pharmaceutical companies in the first 10 accounted for 54.1% of the total sales revenue before the top 50, and the sales revenue of the top 20 companies accounted for 78.9%
