The decline in Q3 net interest rate was mainly due to a month-on-month increase in financial expenses of about 44 million yuan. In 24Q3, the company's inventory turnover rate decreased by 1.91 year on year, and the accounts receivable turnover ratio of 7.13 increased year on year. The average price of VB1\ VB6 in October was 201 and 162.5 yuan/kg, respectively, and continued to rise 2.7% and 3.4% from the average price in Q3.
