These numbers are incredibly substantial and are likely responsible for the very large gain we saw with BIMI stock today.
“We are glad to achieve significant revenue growth in the third quarter. The growth was mainly driven by the increase in sales of wholesale pharmaceuticals. Contributing to the increase in revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2021, was the operations of our recently-acquired five hospitals”.

Right now, the biotech industry is on fire. This initially began as a response to the pandemic, however, it has remained over a year and a half later. While it’s clear that BIMI stock is highly volatile, its financials are very encouraging. Whether that makes it worth adding to your watchlist or not is up to you.
