FUZHOU, China, March 16, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Pingtan Marine Enterprise Ltd. (Nasdaq: PME) ("Pingtan" or the "Company"), a global fishing company based in the People's Republic of China (PRC), today announced financial results for its fourth quarter and year-ended December 31, 2018.
The Company's recent notable events are as follows:

- March 5, 2019: The Company announced that the second group of 24 fishing vessels of the Company has recently received approval for modification and rebuilding from the MOA. These vessels are approved to operate in the international waters of the Indian Ocean, North Pacific Ocean, Southeast Pacific and Southwest Atlantic (including Argentina) after completion of modification and rebuilding.
- December 27, 2018: The Company announced that 12 of the Company's first group of 27 modified and rebuilt new fishing vessels have left the port of Fuzhou in succession and are heading towards their designated fishing areas for operation in the international waters of the Indian Ocean.
- November 20, 2018: The Company held its Annual Shareholder Meeting at Pingtan's headquarters in Fuzhou, China.

- November 7, 2018: The Company announced that 4 large-scale light luring seine vessels of the Company's first group of 27 modified and rebuilt fishing vessels departed the port from Fuzhou.
Management Comments
Mr. Xinrong Zhuo, Chairman and CEO of the Company, commented, "Through the unremitting efforts of the Company, we achieved dual growth in both operational and financial performance in 2018. In April 2018, we announced that our 27 fishing vessels have received approval from the MOA and were expected to operate in the international waters of the Indian Ocean, and we immediately commenced the modification and rebuilding project for the 27 fishing vessels within the same month. Since November last year, these rebuilt new fishing vessels set their sail to their designated waters for production. In early March 2019, we announced that Pingtan has received approval from the MOA of an additional 24 fishing vessels for modification and rebuilding. We believe that operation of these new fishing vessels will further expand our fishing areas, increase our production capacity and enrich product mix. The Company's management will continue to focus on this development."
Factors Affecting Pingtan's Results of Operation – Indonesia Moratorium on fishing licenses renewals
As previously disclosed in our Forms 10-K and 10-Q filed during 2015 and 2016, in early December 2014, the Indonesian government introduced a six-month moratorium on issuing new fishing licenses and renewals so that the country's Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries ("MMAF") could combat illegal fishing and rectify ocean fishing order. In February 2015, the Company ceased all fishing operations in Indonesia. During the moratorium, the Company was informed that fishing licenses of four vessels operated through PT. Avona, one of the local companies through which the Company conducts business in Indonesia, and the fishery business license of PT. Dwikarya, the other local company through which the Company conducts business in Indonesia, were revoked. As a result and because license renewal was prohibited due to the general moratorium, all local fishing licenses of the Company's vessels in Indonesia are presently inactive.
In November 2015, the Indonesian government announced that the moratorium had concluded, the MMAF has not implemented new fishing policies and resumed the license renewal process. The Company does not know when exactly licensing and renewal will start. The Company has been paying close attention to any new trends in fishing policy and has been actively exploring other business operations and redeploying vessels to other locations. Since the Company derived a majority of our revenue from this area, this ban has caused a significant drop in our production and our financial results will continue to be adversely affected.
In September 2017, the Company was informed that the fishing licenses of the 13 vessels were suspended and the vessels were docked in the port by the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries of the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste ("MAF"). The MAF alleged and investigated whether false statements were made during the licensing process and the vessels were simultaneously registered in Indonesia. The Company disputed these allegations and the government of Timor-Leste eventually agreed to release these vessels as no evidence was presented to support such allegations. The 13 vessels have returned to China for regular maintenance.
As of December 31, 2018, among the Company's 141 vessels, 12 are located in the Bay of Bengal in India; 29 are located in international waters; and 13 have returned to China from the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste due to the reason described above; and 10 vessels are in the modification and rebuilding project. The remaining 77 vessels were licensed by the MOA to operate in the Arafura Sea in Indonesia. The vessels in Indonesian waters, however, are not in operation because the licenses are currently inactive due to either the moratorium discussed above, the revocation of the fishery business license of the local entity through which the vessels operate, or, with respect to 4 vessels, the revocation of the local fishing licenses.

Consolidated Financial and Operating Review
Revenue
Revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2018 was $25.1 million compared to $16.4 million for the same period in 2017. The increase was mainly attributable to higher volume of delivery to warehouse stock that drove up sales revenue.
For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company's revenue was $64.3 million, increasing by 1.7% from $63.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. The increase was mainly due to the reason described above, i.e. higher volume of delivery to warehouse stock that drove up sales revenue.
Gross Margin
The Company's gross margin was 36.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2018, compared to 74.5% in the prior year period. The decrease is mainly attributable to the increase of $7.3 million in fuel cost due to 19 modified and rebuilt new fishing vessels sailing to sea for operation in the fourth quarter 2018.
The Company's gross margin was 48.3% in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 compared to 34.9% in the same period of 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to an increased number of deliveries into warehouse that averaged down unit production cost of fish.
Selling Expenses
For the three months ended December 31, 2018, selling expense was $0.44 million compared to $0.47 million in the prior year period, a decrease of 6.1%.
For the year ended December 31, 2018, total selling expense was $1.62 million compared to $1.23 million in the same period of 2017, an increase of 31.8%. The increase was primarily due to the increase in storage fees and shipping and handling fees as a result of larger warehouses rented and an increased number of deliveries to warehouse, partially offset by the decrease in insurance and advertising expenses.
General & Administrative Expenses
For the three months ended December 31, 2018, general and administrative expense was $2.0 million, compared to $6.3 million in the prior year period, a decrease of 67.6%. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in professional fees as a result of mainly decreased legal fees, consulting fees and accounting fees, a decrease in compensation and related benefits and a decrease in depreciation of non-operating fishing vessels.
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, total general and administrative expense was $10.3 million compared to $9.6 million in the same period of 2017, an increase of 7.6%. The increase was primarily due to the increase in depreciation expense, compensation and related benefits, insurance and bank service charge, as well as bad debt recovery based on periodic review of accounts receivable balances and management's evaluation of the collectability of receivable balances, partially offset by the decrease in professional fees and travel and entertainment expenses.
Net Income (Loss)
Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2018 was $(3.2) million compared to net income of $5.3 million in the same period of 2017. The decrease was mainly due to drawing $9.7 million impairment loss from vessels in the fourth quarter of FY 2018.
For the year ended December 31, 2018, net income was $14.8 million, compared to $32.5 million in prior year period, a decrease of 54.5%. As described above, the decrease was mainly due to drawing an impairment loss of $9.7 million on vessels compared to nil for the year ended December 31, 2017. In the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company deregistered 24 fishing vessels and applied to the MOA for building 24 new fishing vessels. As a result of the deregistration, the Company assessed the recoverability of the 24 fishing vessels based on the undiscounted future cash flow that the fishing vessels are expected to generate as less than the carrying amount, and recognized an impairment loss as per the U.S. GAAP. Impairment loss is a non-cash item. Excluding the impairment loss, net income for the year ended December 31, 2018 would be $24.5million.
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Owners of the Company
Net loss attributable to owners of the Company for the three months ended December 31, 2018 was $3.0 million, or $(0.04) per basic and diluted share, compared to net income attributable to owners of the Company of $4.8 million, or $0.06 per basic and diluted share, in the same period of 2017.
Net income attributable to owners of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $13.4 million, or 0.17 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income attributable to owners of the Company of $29.7 million, or $0.38 per basic and diluted share, in the same period of 2017.
Guidance for the First Quarter 2019
Based on the Company's expectation of potential production capacity recovery due to operation of 27 modified and rebuilt new fishing vessels during the first quarter, the demand for fishing products in the Chinese market and the Company's continued efforts in expanding market share, the Company expects that the harvest volume for the first quarter 2019 would be around 20,000,000 KG.
