The Company expects that JD Health's gross profit margin in the second half of the year will expand year-over-year, while also lowering the forecast for operating expenses in the second half of the year. This is because it is expected that losses from O2O stores will decrease, but the year-end goal for the total number of stores will remain unchanged.
