Corporate History
 
As used in this report, “we”, “us”, “our”, “CKGT”, “our Company”, “the Company”, or “China Kangtai” refers to China Kangtai Cactus Bio-Tech Inc. and all of its subsidiaries and affiliated companies.
 
Our Company was initially incorporated as InvestNet, Inc. (“InvestNet”) on March 16, 2000 under the laws of the State of Nevada. Prior to June 3, 2005, the Company’s operations consisted of real time software and IT solutions which the Company held through its subsidiaries, Champion Agents Limited (which wholly owned DSI Computer Technology Company Limited) and Interchance Limited. Due to the fact that the Company was unable to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, obtain funding to sustain operations nor reduce or stabilize expenses to the point where it could have realized a net positive cash flow, management and the board of directors determined that it was in the best interests of the stockholders to seek a strategic alternative so that the Company could continue to operate. On May 13, 2005, InvestNet entered into a series of agreements to effect a “reverse merger transaction” via a share exchange and through the conversion of a convertible promissory note, as described below, with China Kangtai Cactus Bio-tech Company Limited (“BVI China Kangtai”), a British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) incorporated on November 26, 2004.
 
These documents included a Stock Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which InvestNet issued 30,000,000 shares to a stockholder of BVI China Kangtai for $300,000. Additionally, InvestNet entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, pursuant to which the stockholders of BVI China Kangtai exchanged 12% of BVI China Kangtai’s outstanding shares for 110,130,615 shares of InvestNet. Additionally, InvestNet issued a Convertible Promissory Note to BVI China Kangtai or its designees in the amount of $8,070,000 plus accrued interest at a rate of 5% per annum or convertible at the option of the holder(s) in the event that InvestNet effected a one for seventy reverse split of InvestNet’s common stock into the remaining 88% of the outstanding shares of BVI China Kangtai (the “Convertible Note”). The Company did effect a one for seventy reverse split of all of its outstanding shares of Common Stock and changed its name (to “China Kangtai Cactus Bio-Tech Inc.”) and trading symbol on the OTC Bulletin Board (to “CKGT”) on August 25, 2005. The holders of the Convertible Note converted the Convertible Note a day later on August 26, 2005 into 14,248,395 shares of Common Stock of the Company. As the result of the share exchange and conversion of the Convertible Note, the Company completed a “reverse merger transaction” whereby InvestNet acquired 100% of BVI China Kangtai, which wholly owns Harbin Hainan Kangda Cacti Hygienical Foods Co., Ltd. (“Harbin Hainan Kangda”).
 
Harbin Hainan Kangda is presently our main operating subsidiary.  Harbin Hainan Kangda is in the business of selling and producing cactus and cactus related products in the PRC as more fully described below. In connection with the “reverse merger transaction”, we completely sold all the Company’s real time software and IT solutions operations by selling all of the stock held by the Company in its prior wholly owned subsidiaries, Champion Agents Limited (which wholly owned DSI Computer Technology Company Limited) and Interchance Limited to V-Capital Limited, a Republic of Mauritius corporation which is controlled by a former director of InvestNet.
 
On June 3, 2005, in connection with the reorganization of the Company and the acquisition of BVI China Kangtai and its wholly owned subsidiary, Harbin Hainan Kangda, the Company’s executive officers and directors significantly changed. Specifically, Norman Koo resigned as a director, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company; Terence Ho resigned as a director, Chief Financial Officer, and Treasurer of the Company; Vivian Szeto resigned as a director (However, Ms. Szeto’s resignation from the Board of Directors was contingent on the Company completing its filing and mailing requirements of its Schedule 14f-1 which occurred on July 22, 2005 and so, from June 3, 2005 to July 22, 2005 she served as the Company’s sole director) and Secretary of the Company; Johnny Lu resigned as a director of the Company; and Mantin Lu resigned as a director of the Company.
 
In contemplation of the aforementioned resignations, also on June 3, 2005, the Board of Directors appointed in accordance with Section 3.04 of the Company’s Bylaws, Jinjiang Wang, Chengzhi Wang, Hong Bu, Jiping Wang and Song Yang as members of the Company’s Board of Directors, subject to the fulfillment of the filing and mailing requirements, including the 10 day waiting period of its Schedule 14f-1 that was sent to all stockholders of the Company pursuant to section 14(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which occurred on July 22, 2005 and appointed the following officers to serve immediately: Jinjiang Wang, President; Chengzhi Wang, General Manager; Hong Bu, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer; Fengxi Lang, Secretary; Changfu Wang, Vice General Manager; Zhimin Zhan, Vice General Manager; and Lixian Zhou, Assistant General Manager of the Company.
 
On July 20, 2005, InvestNet’s sole director, Vivian Szeto, and a majority of the Company’s stockholders unanimously approved and ratified a one for seventy reverse split (the “Reverse Split”) of the Company’s common stock and the amendment and restatement of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to effect a name change of the Company from “Investnet, Inc.” to “China Kangtai Cactus Bio-Tech Inc.”. The Reverse Split became effective on August 25, 2005; 20 days after the Company sent an Information Statement to all of its stockholders and after the filing of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada. As a result of the Reverse Split, the number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, now named China Kangtai Cactus Bio-Tech Inc., was reduced from a total of 200,000,000 shares outstanding to 2,857,143 shares outstanding. A day after the Reverse Split on August 26, 2005, the Convertible Note was converted by its holders(s) into 14,248,395 shares of the Company, which increased the total outstanding shares of the Company to 17,105,625 shares. The Company’s trading symbol was changed by the OTC Bulletin Board Stock Market (“OTCBB”) to “CKGT” to better reflect the Company’s new name. The Company has also changed its Web site to www.xrz.cn.

On June 26, 2006, the Company acquired a 100% equity interest in Guangdong Taishan Kangda Cactus Hygienical Food Co., Ltd. (“Taishan Kangda”), a company with limited liability formed under the laws of the People’s Republic of China for $1,574,000 in cash. Taishan Kangda’s assets include large areas of cactus plantation and production facilities in Guangdong Province in southeast China. The acquisition allows the Company to establish production facilities closer to its existing cactus plantations in Guangdong Province in order to reduce transportation cost and to distribute its products more effectively in southeast China.
 
The Company currently has three 100% owned subsidiaries: China Kangtai Cactus Bio-Tech Company Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (Kangtai BVI”) ; Harbin Hainan Kangda Cacti Hygienical Foods Co., Ltd., a PRC company “Harbin Hainan Kangda”); and Taishan Kangda.

Kangtai BVI is a holding company and does not have any operations. Harbin Hainan Kangda handles all of the production, research and development, sales and marketing of our products derived from edible cactus plants, fruits and extracts. Taishan Kangda handles all of the cultivation and harvest of cactus plants and the production of our cactus raw materials.
 
Overview
 
The Company is principally engaged in the production, R&D, sales and marketing of products derived from cacti. The Company’s product lines include cactus nutraceuticals, cactus nutritional food and drinks, as well as cactus raw and intermediate materials.
 
The Company has over 387 acres of cactus-farming bases in the Guangdong and Heilongjiang Provinces of China. The Company predominantly grows three species of cacti which are Mexican Pyramid, Mexican Milpa-Alta and Mexican Queen. Mexican Pyramid and Queen cacti are used for cactus fruit drinks and nutraceutical products; Mexican Milpa-Alta is mainly used for cactus nutritional food products. Most of the cactus fruits are processed into cactus fruit juice, which is the raw material for cactus nutritional drinks. Most of the harvested edible cacti are processed into dry powders, which are raw materials for cactus nutraceuticals. The Company’s annual production capability of edible cacti in 2009 is 19,184 tons.
 
The Company engages with, by co-operative production agreements, local pharmaceutical, food and beverage manufacturers to produce its products. This strategy allows the Company to fill the orders quickly with short production runs and to reduce the requirements in fixed assets investment. The Company currently has entered into co-production agreements with five processors in China. They are Harbin Bin County Hualan Dairy Factory, Harbin Ice Lantern Noodle Factory, Tsingtao Brewry (Harbin) Inc., Harbin Diwang Pharmacy Co., Ltd. (a GMP certified processor), and Mudanjiang Kangwei Health Food Company, Ltd. Pursuant to these contracts, the Company provides raw materials, quality control guidelines and technical support while the processors provide other materials, processing facilities and labor to manufacture products for the Company. These processors are required to follow strictly the Company’s guidelines and instructions for production. The Company inspects all final products. The Company currently has long term agreements with all five processors which may be renewed at expiration in 2012.
 
GMP or Good Manufacturing Practice certifications are awarded by the State Food and Drug Administration of China to processors which meet the safety and quality assurance standards set by the State Food and Drug Administration of China.
 
In October 2007, the Company has signed a new agreement with Harbin Meijia Bio-Tech Co., Ltd.
 
All of the above co-operative production agreements have been renewed during January and March of 2008.

In order to quickly penetrate the markets in China, enhance the efficiency of distributions, lower sales costs and administrative overheads, starting August 2006, the Company has reformed its sales and distribution models and gradually disposed its own domestic distribution network of approximately 200 self-owned, franchised chain and Kangtai branded stores in Harbin, Beijing, Guangzhou and other cities in China. The Company has adopted the strategies of distributions and sales of its products primarily through various types and levels of provincial and municipal distributors and agents in Dalian, Heilongjiang, Harbin, Beijing, Guangzhou, Tianjin, Shenzhen, Jilin, Hebei, Liaoning, Shanxi, Hunan, Gansu and Shandong in China. The Company’s major revenue breakdown by region in China for the 2009 fiscal year is as follows:

Harbin Huadingwei Trading Company, Ltd., Fujian Tianyi Economic and Trading Company, Ltd., and Jilin Yanji Economic and Trading Company, Ltd. are our top three distributors. Together, they account for 19% of our total sales.
 
Competition
 
The cactus product industry in China is not highly competitive, and no published data is available regarding China Kangtai’s relative position in the markets in which it operates. Although no major competitor currently competes against the Company across its entire product line, competitive products are available from a number of different vendors offering features similar to those of China Kangtai’s products. There can be no assurance that one or more of these competitors will not develop products that are equal or superior to the products the Company markets. In addition, many potential competitors for China Kangtai’s products have in-house capabilities to develop cactus products that can provide some or all of the functionality of China Kangtai’s products. Our top five competitors are Anhui Haozhou Xingbang Cactus Co., Hunan Yongzhou Sino-Mexico Cactus Development Co., Ltd., Henan Luxin Cactus Co., Ltd., Zhengshou Milpa-Alta Cactus Co., Ltd., and Ningxia Milpa-Alta Edible Cactus Development Co., Ltd.
 
The Company believes that there are distinguishing competitive factors in the selection of its cactus products. These include price/performance characteristics, marketing and sales expertise, R&D expertise and patents protections, management proprietary knowledge and experiences on cactus production, ownership of large cactus plantations, product benefit and functions, and reliability and integration of cactus into a variety of other products. The Company believes that it competes favorably with regard to these factors.
 
A major competitive asset for the Company is that it offers quality assurance of its products from the raw material stage all the way to the final products stage.
 
We are currently the leading cactus grower and cactus related products producer in China. We have cactus farm covering over 387 acres and an active research and development department which currently holds 18 patents and is seeking 12 new ones in various product categories. Our products are sold in supermarkets, food stores, hotels and restaurants though our growing distribution network in 12 provinces and two municipalities in China. We have a total of 31 product lines compare to our top five competitors which combined have a total of about 30 product lines. In addition, our competitive advantages include the following:

Control from the source:
      3 species of Mexican Cacti
      Seed cloning
      Farm ownership   
      Planting
      Growing without chemicals
      Harvesting
 
Product innovation and research:
      Strong team and advisors     
      Strategic partners
      R&D Institute
      Research facilities

Manufacturing and production:
      Processing facilities
      Co-operative processing partners
      Quality control monitoring
      Quality packaging
 
Sales and distribution:
      A network of regional distributors
      Third party distributors
      Seminar and conference orders
      Repeat purchase group customers

The Company believes it is in compliance in all material respects with all laws, rules, regulations and requirements that affect its business. Further, the Company believes that compliance with such laws, rules, regulations and requirements does not impose a material impediment on its ability to conduct business.

Employees

At December 31, 2009, the Company has a total of 132 full time employees and generally enjoys good employer-employee relationship. In addition, the Management of the Company expects to continue to use consultants, attorneys, and accountants as necessary, to complement services rendered by its employees.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.
 
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE “SAFE HARBOR” PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995.
 
Certain statements in this report, including statements in the following discussion which are not statements of historical fact, are what are known as “forward looking statements,” which are basically statements about the future. For that reason, these statements involve risk and uncertainty since no one can accurately predict the future. Words such as “plans,” “intends,” “will,” “hopes,” “seeks,” “anticipates,” “expects” and the like often identify such forward looking statements, but are not the only indication that a statement is a forward-looking statement. Such forward looking statements include statements concerning our plans and objectives with respect to the present and future operations of the Company, and statements which express or imply that such present and future operations will or may produce revenues, income or profits. Numerous factors and future events could cause the Company to change such plans and objectives or fail to successfully implement such plans or achieve such objectives, or cause such present and future operations to fail to produce revenues, income or profits. Therefore, the reader is advised that the following discussion should be considered in light of the discussion of risks and other factors contained in this report on Form 10K and in the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. No statements contained in the following discussion should be construed as a guarantee or assurance of future performance or future results.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this report. CKGT’s fiscal year end is December 31.
 
CKGT’s short-term strategy is to realize net cash flow from operations and financing activities to be used to expand marketing efforts in China and research and development. CKGT is committed to ensuring that its products remain at the forefront of providing a variety of quality cactus based nutriceuticals, nutritional food from cactus, and beverages from cactus, including but not limited to beer and wine derived from cactus. The realization of net cash flows in the near term will require a significant increase in CKGT’s revenues without a substantial increase in expenses. Financing activities will focus on equity financing. Once CKGT has additional positive net cash flow, its longer-term strategy is to expand marketing efforts beyond China into other Asian markets based on anticipated increases in marketing spending over the next several years in South Korea, Singapore, Taiwan and other southeastern Asian countries.
 
CKGT’s business development strategy is prone to significant risks and uncertainties certain of which can have an immediate impact on its efforts to realize positive net cash flow and deter future prospects of revenue growth.
 
CKGT’s financial condition and results of operations depend primarily on the revenue generated from the sale of its products and its ability to control the cost of sales. CKGT has a limited history of generating revenue which cannot be viewed as an indication of continued growth and a recent historical record of incurring losses. Should CKGT be unable to consistently generate revenue through the successful implementation of its business model and reduce or stabilize expenses to the point where it can realize a net cash flow such failure will have a short-term impact on CKGT’s ability to continue its business operations.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included in this report. All information presented herein is based on our fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

  $ 993,392     $ 1,180,039  
 
Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009 totaled $993,392, representing a decrease of $186,647, or 16%, compared to $1,180,039 for the year ended December 31, 2008. The decrease in operating expenses was mainly attributable to decrease in public company related professional and other expenses and other general and administrative expenses.

Public company related professional and other expenses consist of audit, legal, investor relations and other filing expenses.
 
During 2009, public company related professional and other expenses totaled $193,835, decreased by $68,900 as compared to $262,735 in 2008. The decrease is mainly attributable to a decrease of $51,000 in legal fees and $13,256 in fees related to investor relations.
 
Other general and administrative expenses consist of auto expenses, bad debts expense, office, rent and utilities, salaries and wages and others. Other general and administrative expenses totaled $168,235 in 2009, a decrease of $100,562, or 37% as compared to $268,797 in 2008. The decrease is mainly attributable to a decrease of $58,517 in stock option expense incurred from 90,635 in 2008 to $32,118 incurred in 2009 and a decrease of $26,680 incurred for shares issued by the Company in 2008 to obtain a waiver of liquidated damages and liability.
 
Comparison of Other Income and Expenses for the Years Ended December 31, 2009 and 2008
 
Other general and administrative expenses consist of auto expenses, bad debts expense, office, rent and utilities, salaries and wages and others. Other general and administrative expenses totaled $168,235 in 2009, a decrease of $100,562, or 37% as compared to $268,797 in 2008. The decrease is mainly attributable to a decrease of $58,517 in stock option expense incurred from $90,635 in 2008 to $32,118 incurred in 2009, and a decrease of $26,680 incurred for shares issued by the Company in 2008 to obtain a waiver of liquidated damages liability.
 
During 2009, the Company recorded a gain of $495,348 on disposal of property, plant and equipment (see Note 4 to Financial Statements) as compared a loss of $14,323 in 2008.
 
Income from Operations
 
Income from operations totaled $9,527,530 in 2009, an increase of $2,714,289, or 40%, as compared to $6,813,241 in 2008.
 
It was mainly resulted from increased sales and decreased operating expenses as discussed above.
 
Net  Income
 
Net income totaled $480,125 in 2009 as compared to the net income of $5,681,500 in 2008. The decrease of net income was caused mainly by the expense from revaluation of Series A Preferred Stock and A, B, C, and D warrants with characteristics of liabilities at fair values. (See Note 10 to Financial Statements). Absent this expense, the Company would have a net income of $8,406,307; basic earnings per share $0.46 and diluted earnings per share $0.43 in 2009.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
We had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2,918,000 as of December 31, 2009, as compared to approximately $4,399,000 as of December 31, 2008. Our funds are kept in financial institutions located in China, which do not provide insurance for amounts on deposit.  Moreover, we are subject to the regulations of the PRC which restrict the transfer of cash from China, except under certain specific circumstances. Accordingly, such funds may not be readily available to us to satisfy obligations which have been incurred outside the PRC.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $7,749,649 and $9,676,505 for the year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities in 2009 was due to the increase of other receivable in the amount of $3,747,926 resulted from the buy and sale of land use rights and certain equipment in 2009 (see Note 4).
 
Net cash used by investing activities was $9,460,214 in 2009, compared to $7,184,232 in 2008. On August 25, 2009, the Company acquired land use rights of state-owned land located in Langbei Village, Baisha Town covering an area of 181,854 square meters, with a useful life of 50 years starting from the issue date of the land use right certificate. The purchase price for the Taishan Baisha land use rights of 66,376,800 RMB ($9,710,926) was paid in full as of December 31, 2009.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities was $255,042 in 2009, compared to $720,922 in 2008. During 2008, the Company received net proceeds of 720,922 from the sale of Series A preferred stock. During 2009, the Company received deposits of $250,000 for exercise 333,334 shares of warrant A.
 
Note Payable to a Financial Institution
 
The note payable (6,050,000 RMB) is due to a PRC provincial government financial institution which made the loan to the Company to promote the commercial cultivation of cactus. The loan was made to the Company on an interest-free and unsecured basis and is repayable on demand. Imputed interest is calculated at 6% per annum on the amount due. Total imputed interest recorded as additional paid-in capital amounted to $53,219 and $52,326 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
Estimated Liability for Equity-Based Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Liabilities

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company reclassified the fair values at January 1, 2009 of the outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and the warrants comprising the March 21, 2008 and the July 16, 2008 sales of units (see Note 11 to Financial Statements) from stockholders’ equity to liabilities, as follows:

   
Shares / Warrants
   
Fair Value
 
             
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
    1,150,000     $ 333,500  
                 
A warrants
    1,250,000       122,000  
B warrants
    1,500,000       120,150  
C warrants
    500,000       47,950  
D warrants
    600,000       47,640  
Total warrants
    3,850,000       337,740  
                 
Total Financial Instruments
    5,000,000     $ 671,240  
 
Since at January 1, 2009 the carrying value of the outstanding financial instruments was $690,000, the Company recognized a cumulative effect adjustment resulting from a change in accounting principle of $18,760, or a net of $671,240. Accordingly, the unappropriated retained earnings balance at December 31, 2008 was increased from $11,604,285 to $11,623,045, as adjusted, on January 1, 2009.

The characteristics which require classification of the Series A Preferred Stock and warrants as liabilities are the Company’s obligations to reduce the conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock and the exercise price of the warrants in the event that the Company sells, grants, or issues any shares, options warrants, or any convertible instrument at a price below the $0.60 current conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock or the current exercise prices of the warrants. As a result, the Company remeasures the fair values of these financial instruments each quarter, adjusts the liability balances, and reflects changes in operations as “income (expense) from revaluation of Series A Preferred Stock and A, B, C, and D warrants with characteristics of liabilities at fair values”.

At December 31, 2009, the fair values of the financial instruments consisted of:

   
Shares / Warrants
   
Fair Value
 
             
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
    50,000     $ 135,500  
                 
A warrants
    -       -  
B warrants
    1,500,000       2,839,500  
C warrants
    500,000       992,500  
D warrants
    600,000       1,090,860  
Total warrants
    2,600,000       4,922,860  
                 
Total Financial Instruments
    2,650,000     $ 5,058,360  

Accordingly, total of $5,058,360 was recorded as estimated liabilities for equity-based financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities in the balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, and the same amount was recognized as expense from valuation of Series A Preferred Stock and A, B, C, and D warrants with characteristics of liabilities at fair values in the income statement for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

In Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 included in this annual report, the Company discusses those accounting policies that are considered to be significant in determining the results of operations and its financial position. The Company believes that the accounting principles utilized by it conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company applies the following critical accounting policies related to revenue recognition in the preparation of its financial statements.
 
General

The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Senior management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure of these estimates with the Board of Directors. Management believes that the accounting estimates employed and the resulting balances are reasonable; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenue Recognition

Sales of products are recognized when title to the product and risk of loss transfer to the customer (which depends on the customer) provided that: there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance; persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; the sales price is fixed or determinable; and collectibility is deemed probable. Sales terms provide for passage of title either at the time shipment is made or at the time of the delivery of product and generally do not include any customer right of return. Shipping and handling costs are included as a component of cost of sales.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
In connection with the determination of estimated liability for equity-based financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities (see Note 10 to consolidated financial statements), the Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: expected volatility of 100%, and risk-free interest rate of 2%.

Foreign Currency Translation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company are translated pursuant to Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 830, “Foreign Currency Matters.” The Company’s subsidiaries, Harbin Hainan Kangda and Guangdong Taishan Kangda, are located and operated in China. The Chinese Yuan is the functional currency. The financial statements of China Kangtai are translated to U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities, and average exchange rates for revenues, costs and expenses. Translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains or losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the consolidated results of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a standard that established the FASB (ASC) and amended the hierarchy of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) such that the ASC became the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP. The ASC did not change current U.S. GAAP, but was intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All previously existing accounting standard documents were superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the ASC is considered non-authoritative. New accounting standards issued subsequent to June 30, 2009 are communicated by the FASB through Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs). The Company adopted the ASC. This standard did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition. However, throughout the notes to the consolidated financial statements references that were previously made to various former authoritative U.S. GAAP pronouncements have been changed to coincide with the appropriate section of the ASC.

In December 2007, the FASB issued and, in April 2009, amended a new business combinations standard codified within ASC 805, which changed the accounting for business acquisitions. Accounting for business combinations under this standard requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all (and only) the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction and establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Certain provisions of this standard impact the determination of acquisition-date fair value of consideration paid in a business combination (including contingent consideration); exclude transaction costs from acquisition accounting; and change accounting practices for acquisition-related restructuring costs, in-process research and development, indemnification assets, and tax benefits. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition. 

In April 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard which provides guidance on (1) estimating the fair value of an asset or liability when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly declined and (2) identifying transactions that are not orderly. The standard also amended certain disclosure provisions for fair value measurements and disclosures in ASC 820 to require, among other things, disclosures in interim periods of the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value as well as disclosure of the hierarchy of the source of underlying fair value information on a disaggregated basis by specific major category of investment. The standard was effective prospectively beginning April 1, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In April 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard which modifies the requirements for recognizing other-than-temporarily impaired debt securities and changes the existing impairment model for such securities. The standard also requires additional disclosures for both annual and interim periods with respect to both debt and equity securities. Under the standard, impairment of debt securities will be considered other-than-temporary if an entity (1) intends to sell the security, (2) more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovering its cost, or (3) does not expect to recover the security’s entire amortized cost basis (even if the entity does not intend to sell). The standard further indicates that, depending on which of the above factor(s) causes the impairment to be considered other-than-temporary, (1) the entire shortfall of the security’s fair value versus its amortized cost basis or (2) only the credit loss portion would be recognized in earnings while the remaining shortfall (if any) would be recorded in other comprehensive income. The standard requires entities to initially apply its provisions to previously other-than-temporarily impaired debt securities existing as of the date of initial adoption by making a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The cumulative-effect adjustment potentially reclassifies the noncredit portion of a previously other-than-temporarily impaired debt security held as of the date of initial adoption from retained earnings to accumulated other comprehensive income. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In April 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard regarding interim disclosures about fair value of financial instruments. The standard essentially expands the disclosure about fair value of financial instruments that were previously required only annually to also be required for interim period reporting. In addition, the standard requires certain additional disclosures regarding the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In May 2009, the FASB issued a new accounting standard regarding subsequent events. This standard incorporates into authoritative accounting literature certain guidance that already existed within generally accepted auditing standards, with the requirements concerning recognition and disclosure of subsequent events remaining essentially unchanged. This guidance addresses events which occur after the balance sheet date but before the issuance of financial statements. Under the new standard, as under previous practice, an entity must record the effects of subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that existed at the balance sheet date and must disclose but not record the effects of subsequent events which provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the balance sheet date.  For the Company, this standard was effective beginning April 1, 2009 and adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition

In June 2009, the FASB issued a new standard regarding the accounting for transfers of financial assets amending the existing guidance on transfers of financial assets to, among other things, eliminate the qualifying special-purpose entity concept, include a new unit of account definition that must be met for transfers of portions of financial assets to be eligible for sale accounting, clarify and change the derecognition criteria for a transfer to be accounted for as a sale, and require significant additional disclosure. The standard is effective for new transfers of financial assets beginning January 1, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard, but does not expect to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.
 
In June 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard that revised the consolidation guidance for variable-interest entities. The modifications include the elimination of the exemption for qualifying special purpose entities, a new approach for determining who should consolidate a variable-interest entity, and changes to when it is necessary to reassess who should consolidate a variable-interest entity. The standard is effective January 1, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard, but does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, which provides additional guidance on how companies should measure liabilities at fair value under ASC 820. The ASU clarifies that the quoted price for an identical liability should be used. However, if such information is not available, a entity may use, the quoted price of an identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities traded as assets, or another valuation technique (such as the market or income approach). The ASU also indicates that the fair value of a liability is not adjusted to reflect the impact of contractual restrictions that prevent its transfer and indicates circumstances in which quoted prices for an identical liability or quoted price for an identical liability traded as an asset may be considered level 1 fair value. This ASU is effective October 1, 2009. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.
 
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force, that provides amendments to the criteria for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. As a result of these amendments, multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements will be separated in more circumstances than under existing U.S. GAAP. The ASU does this by establishing a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. The selling price used for each deliverable will be based on vendor-specific objective evidence if available, third-party evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is not available, or estimated selling price if neither vendor-specific objective evidence nor third-party evidence is available. A vendor will be required to determine its best estimate of selling price in a manner that is consistent with that used to determine the price to sell the deliverable on a standalone basis. This ASU also eliminates the residual method of allocation and will require that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method, which allocates any discount in the overall arrangement proportionally to each deliverable based on its relative selling price. Expanded disclosures of qualitative and quantitative information regarding application of the multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement guidance are also required under the ASU. The ASU does not apply to arrangements for which industry specific allocation and measurement guidance exists, such as long-term construction contracts and software transactions.  The ASU is effective January 1, 2011. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

Certain other accounting pronouncements have been issued by the FASB and other standard setting organizations which are not yet effective and have not yet been adopted by the Company. The impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations from adoption of these standards is not expected to be material.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have never entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements and have never established any special purpose entities. We have not guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities or entered into any options on non-financial assets.

Evaluation of Disclosure controls and Procedures

An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2009 which was designed to provide reasonable assurance. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that: (i) information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure by the Company; and (ii) information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. During the year ended December 31, 2009, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Annual Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the company in accordance with as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the (i) effectiveness and efficiency of operations, (ii) reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and (iii) compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Our internal controls framework is based on the criteria set forth in the Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the small business issuer’s internal control over financial reporting is as of the year ended December 31, 2009. We believe that internal control over financial reporting is effective. We have not identified any, current material weaknesses considering the nature and extent of our current operations and any risks or errors in financial reporting under current operations.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permits us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Family Relationships

Our Chairman, President and CEO, Mr. Jinjiang Wang is the father of our General Manager, Mr. Chengzhi Wang and our CFO Ms. Hong Bu is the wife of Mr. Chengzhi Wang and daughter in law of Mr. Jinjiang Wang. Other than the relationship described above, there are no family relationships between or among any of our current directors, executive officers or persons nominated or charged by the Company to become directors or executive officers.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

None of our directors or executive officers has, during the past ten years:

(a)

(b) 
Been convicted in a criminal proceeding or subject to a pending criminal proceeding;

Board Committees
 
The board of directors has established an audit committee. The audit committee is comprised of Jinjiang Wang and Chengzhi Wang. The audit committee has yet to adopt a definitive charter though it typically reviews, acts on, and reports to the board of directors with respect to various auditing and accounting matters. The matters typically considered by CKGT’s audit committee include recommendations as to the performance of its independent auditors, the scope of the annual audits, fees to be paid to the independent auditors, and internal accounting and financial control policies and procedures. Certain stock exchanges currently require companies to adopt a formal written charter that establishes an audit committee that specifies the scope of an audit committee’s responsibilities and the means by which it carries out those responsibilities. We do not have a financial expert serving on our audit committee.

In order to be listed on any of these exchanges, CKGT would be required to adopt a definitive charter for its audit committee. The board of directors has not yet established a compensation committee or a nominating committee.
 
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.
 
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company’s executive officers and directors, and persons who own more that 10% of the Company’s capital stock, to file reports of ownership and changes of ownership on Forms 3, 4 and 5 with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required to furnish the Company with copies of all Forms 3, 4 and 5 they file.
 
Based solely on the Company’s review of the copies of such forms it has received, and written representations from certain reporting persons during the 2009 fiscal year, the Company believes that all of its executive officers and directors complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to them.

Code of Ethics
 
CKGT has adopted a Code of Ethics within the meaning of Item 406(b) of Regulation S-B of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Code of Ethics applies to directors and senior officers, such as the principal executive officer, principal financial officer, controller, and persons performing similar functions. CKGT has filed a copy of its Code of Ethics as Exhibit 14 to its Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended 2003. Further, CKGT’s Code of Ethics is available in print, at no charge, to any security holder who requests such information by contacting CKGT.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of China Kangtai Cactus Bio-Tech Inc.

I have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of China Kangtai Cactus Bio-Tech Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audits.

I conducted my audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that I plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.

In my opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of China Kangtai Cactus Bio-Tech Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the results of their operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are expressed in US dollars.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, note payable, taxes payable and other payable.  The fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets due to the short term maturity of these instruments and based on interest rates of comparable instruments.

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of US China Kangtai and BVI China Kangtai is the United States dollar.  The functional currency of Harbin Hainan Kangda and Taishan Kangda is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”).  The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar.

Harbin Hainan Kangda and Taishan Kangda assets and liabilities are translated into United States dollars at period-end exchange rates ($0.14630 and $0.14669 at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively).  Harbin Hainan Kangda and Taishan Kangda revenues and expenses are translated into United States dollars at weighted average exchange rates for the periods ($0.14661 and $0.14415 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively).  Resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within stockholders’ equity.

Transaction gains or losses arising from exchange rate fluctuation on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the consolidated results of operations.  There are no material foreign currency transaction gains or losses for 2009 and 2008.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2009 and 2008 consist of cash on hand and demand deposit accounts with banks. The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturities of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.

Accounts receivable

The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. A reserve for allowances and doubtful accounts is established and recorded based on historical experience and the aging of the related accounts receivable.

Inventories

Inventories of cactus stock include trees and palms whose cost consists of seeds and an allocation of fertilizers, direct labor and overhead costs such as depreciation, rent, freight and fuel, among others. Inventories of cactus stock are stated at the lower of cost or market value, cost being calculated on the weighted average basis.

Other raw materials are stated at the lower of cost or market value, cost being determined on a first in, first out method.

Work in progress and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost or market value, cost being determined on a first in, first out method.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.  Expenditures for additions, major renewals and betterments are capitalized and expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets (40 years for buildings, 12 years for plant equipment and machinery, 10 years for motor vehicles, and 8 years for furniture and office equipment).

Intangible and Other Long-Lived Assets

Intangible and other long-lived assets are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization and impairments.  Land use rights are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the related agreements, which range from 30 to 50 years. Other intangible assets consist of patents and licenses. Patents and licenses are being amortized over their expected useful economic life of 10 years.
 
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may no longer be recoverable.  The Company measures impairment by comparing the carrying value of the long-lived assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition.  If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the assets, the Company would recognize an impairment loss based on the fair value of the assets.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue upon delivery of the products, at which time title passes to the customer provided that: there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance; persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; the sales price is fixed or determinable; and collectibility is deemed probable.
 
Advertising Costs
 
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses totaled $161,271 and $133,133 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
Research and Development
 
Research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed as incurred. Total expenditures on research and development charged to general and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were $102,627 and $12,397, respectively.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Compensation- Stock Compensation”.

In addition to requiring supplemental disclosures, FASB ASC 718, Compensation Stock Compensation, addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which a company receives goods or services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the company or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the company’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. FASB ASC 718 focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which a company obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions.

References to the issuances of restricted stock refer to stock of a public company issued in private placement transactions to individuals who are eligible to sell all or some of their shares of restricted Common Stock pursuant to Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Rule 144”), subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to Rule 144, a stockholder who is not an affiliate and has satisfied a six-month holding period may sell all of his restricted stock without restriction, provided that the Company has current information publicly available. Rule 144 also permits, under certain circumstances, the sale of restricted stock, without any limitations, by a non-affiliate of the Company that has satisfied a one-year holding period.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements by applying enacted statutory tax rates expected to apply in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is not more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.  Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.

Net Income Per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

Diluted net income per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive securities (such as stock options, warrants, and convertible preferred stock) outstanding.  Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted net income per common share are excluded from the calculation.

The following table provides a reconciliation of common shares used in the net income per basic share and net income per diluted share computations for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008:

   
2009
   
2008
 
Weighted average shares outstanding – basic
    18,304,775       17,767,461  
Series A convertible preferred stock
    910,000       830,100  
Incremental common shares from stock options and warrants
    254,939       -  
Weighted average shares outstanding - diluted
    19,469,714       18,597,561  

The Company uses the treasury stock method to account for the dilutive effect of unexercised stock options and warrants in net income per diluted share. Antidilutive common shares related to stock options and warrants excluded from the computation of net income per diluted share were approximately 2,350,000 and 3,850,000 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Segment Information

The Company operates in only one segment, the sale of products made from cactus plants. The Company sells to two customer groups; health foods comprising cactus liquor and juice and sale of cactus powder to pharmaceutical companies for use in medical products.

Statement of Cash Flows

In accordance with ASC Topic 230, “Statement of Cash Flows,” cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based upon the local currencies using the average translation rates. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets.

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued a standard that established the FASB (ASC) and amended the hierarchy of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) such that the ASC became the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP. The ASC did not change current U.S. GAAP, but was intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All previously existing accounting standard documents were superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the ASC is considered non-authoritative. New accounting standards issued subsequent to June 30, 2009 are communicated by the FASB through Accounting Standards Updates (ASUs). The Company adopted the ASC. This standard did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition. However, throughout the notes to the consolidated financial statements references that were previously made to various former authoritative U.S. GAAP pronouncements have been changed to coincide with the appropriate section of the ASC.

In December 2007, the FASB issued and, in April 2009, amended a new business combinations standard codified within ASC 805, which changed the accounting for business acquisitions. Accounting for business combinations under this standard requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all (and only) the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction and establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Certain provisions of this standard impact the determination of acquisition-date fair value of consideration paid in a business combination (including contingent consideration); exclude transaction costs from acquisition accounting; and change accounting practices for acquisition-related restructuring costs, in-process research and development, indemnification assets, and tax benefits. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

DECEMBER 31, 2009

In April 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard which provides guidance on (1) estimating the fair value of an asset or liability when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly declined and (2) identifying transactions that are not orderly. The standard also amended certain disclosure provisions for fair value measurements and disclosures in ASC 820 to require, among other things, disclosures in interim periods of the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value as well as disclosure of the hierarchy of the source of underlying fair value information on a disaggregated basis by specific major category of investment. The standard was effective prospectively beginning April 1, 2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In April 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard which modifies the requirements for recognizing other-than-temporarily impaired debt securities and changes the existing impairment model for such securities. The standard also requires additional disclosures for both annual and interim periods with respect to both debt and equity securities. Under the standard, impairment of debt securities will be considered other-than-temporary if an entity (1) intends to sell the security, (2) more likely than not will be required to sell the security before recovering its cost, or (3) does not expect to recover the security’s entire amortized cost basis (even if the entity does not intend to sell). The standard further indicates that, depending on which of the above factor(s) causes the impairment to be considered other-than-temporary, (1) the entire shortfall of the security’s fair value versus its amortized cost basis or (2) only the credit loss portion would be recognized in earnings while the remaining shortfall (if any) would be recorded in other comprehensive income. The standard requires entities to initially apply its provisions to previously other-than-temporarily impaired debt securities existing as of the date of initial adoption by making a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The cumulative-effect adjustment potentially reclassifies the noncredit portion of a previously other-than-temporarily impaired debt security held as of the date of initial adoption from retained earnings to accumulated other comprehensive income. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In April 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard regarding interim disclosures about fair value of financial instruments. The standard essentially expands the disclosure about fair value of financial instruments that were previously required only annually to also be required for interim period reporting. In addition, the standard requires certain additional disclosures regarding the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In May 2009, the FASB issued a new accounting standard regarding subsequent events. This standard incorporates into authoritative accounting literature certain guidance that already existed within generally accepted auditing standards, with the requirements concerning recognition and disclosure of subsequent events remaining essentially unchanged. This guidance addresses events which occur after the balance sheet date but before the issuance of financial statements. Under the new standard, as under previous practice, an entity must record the effects of subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that existed at the balance sheet date and must disclose but not record the effects of subsequent events which provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the balance sheet date.  For the Company, this standard was effective beginning April 1, 2009 and adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition

 In June 2009, the FASB issued a new standard regarding the accounting for transfers of financial assets amending the existing guidance on transfers of financial assets to, among other things, eliminate the qualifying special-purpose entity concept, include a new unit of account definition that must be met for transfers of portions of financial assets to be eligible for sale accounting, clarify and change the derecognition criteria for a transfer to be accounted for as a sale, and require significant additional disclosure. The standard is effective for new transfers of financial assets beginning January 1, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard, but does not expect to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

DECEMBER 31, 2009

In June 2009, the FASB issued an accounting standard that revised the consolidation guidance for variable-interest entities. The modifications include the elimination of the exemption for qualifying special purpose entities, a new approach for determining who should consolidate a variable-interest entity, and changes to when it is necessary to reassess who should consolidate a variable-interest entity. The standard is effective January 1, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard, but does not expect it to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, which provides additional guidance on how companies should measure liabilities at fair value under ASC 820. The ASU clarifies that the quoted price for an identical liability should be used. However, if such information is not available, a entity may use, the quoted price of an identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities traded as assets, or another valuation technique (such as the market or income approach). The ASU also indicates that the fair value of a liability is not adjusted to reflect the impact of contractual restrictions that prevent its transfer and indicates circumstances in which quoted prices for an identical liability or quoted price for an identical liability traded as an asset may be considered level 1 fair value. This ASU is effective October 1, 2009. Adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force, that provides amendments to the criteria for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. As a result of these amendments, multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements will be separated in more circumstances than under existing U.S. GAAP. The ASU does this by establishing a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. The selling price used for each deliverable will be based on vendor-specific objective evidence if available, third-party evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is not available, or estimated selling price if neither vendor-specific objective evidence nor third-party evidence is available. A vendor will be required to determine its best estimate of selling price in a manner that is consistent with that used to determine the price to sell the deliverable on a standalone basis. This ASU also eliminates the residual method of allocation and will require that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method, which allocates any discount in the overall arrangement proportionally to each deliverable based on its relative selling price. Expanded disclosures of qualitative and quantitative information regarding application of the multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement guidance are also required under the ASU. The ASU does not apply to arrangements for which industry specific allocation and measurement guidance exists, such as long-term construction contracts and software transactions.  The ASU is effective January 1, 2011. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

Certain other accounting pronouncements have been issued by the FASB and other standard setting organizations which are not yet effective and have not yet been adopted by the Company. The impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations from adoption of these standards is not expected to be material.

NOTE 10 – ESTIMATED LIABILITY FOR EQUITY-BASED FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH CHARACTERISTICS OF LIABIILTIES

Effective January 1, 2009, in accordance with EITF Issue No. 07-05, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock”, the Company reclassified the fair values at January 1, 2009 of the outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and the warrants comprising the March 21, 2008 and the July 16, 2008 sales of units (see Note 11) from stockholders’ equity to liabilities, as follows:

Total Financial Instruments
    5,000,000     $ 671,240  

Since at January 1, 2009 the carrying value of the outstanding financial instruments was $690,000, the Company recognized a cumulative effect adjustment resulting from a change in accounting principle of $18,760, or a net of $671,240. Accordingly, the unappropriated retained earnings balance at December 31, 2008 was increased from $11,604,285 to $11,623,045, as adjusted, on January 1, 2009.

The characteristics which require classification of the Series A Preferred Stock and warrants as liabilities are the Company’s obligations to reduce the conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock and the exercise price of the warrants in the event that the Company sells, grants, or issues any shares, options warrants, or any convertible instrument at a price below the $0.60 current conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock or the current exercise prices of the warrants. As a result, the Company remeasures the fair values of these financial instruments each quarter, adjusts the liability balances, and reflects changes in operations as “income (expense) from revaluation of Series A Preferred Stock and A, B, C, and D warrants with characteristics of liabilities at fair values”.

If the registration statement was not declared effective by the SEC by August 28, 2008, the Registration Rights Agreement provided for the Company to issue to the Investor as liquidated damages an additional 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for each day thereafter not declared effective (subject to a maximum of 250,000 shares). On October 17, 2008, the SEC declared effective the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1. On October 15, 2008, the Company issued 46,000 shares of common stock to the investor in consideration for the waiver of liquidated damages.

The Series A Preferred Stock, has no voting or dividend rights, is entitled to a liquidation preference of $0.60 per share, and each share is convertible into one share of Company common stock at the option of the holder (which was adjustable to more shares if certain ”defined EPS”  performance thresholds were not met for the six months ended September 30, 2008 or the year ended December 31, 2008; however, the performance thresholds were met). In addition, the Investor had the right to participate in any subsequent funding by the Company on a pro-rata basis at 100% of the offering price for a three month period following the closing. In addition, the conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock and the exercise price of the warrants is to be reduced in the event of any stock splits or stock dividends or in the event that the Company sells, grants, or issues any shares, options, warrants, or any convertible instrument at a price below the $0.60 current conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock or the current exercise prices of the warrants.

The Company recorded as a $196,500 deemed dividend and as a $196,500 increase in additional paid-in capital , the beneficial conversion feature allocated to the convertible preferred stock only ($196,500) based on a relative allocation of the fair values of the convertible preferred stock ($625,000), the A warrants ($477,250) and the B warrants ($488,250) to the gross actual proceeds received ($500,000). The fair value of the warrants was estimated using  the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: stock price of $0.75 per share, exercise price of $0.75 per share for the A warrants, exercise price of $1.00 per share for the B warrants, term of 3 years, expected volatility of 74%, and risk-free interest rate of 4%.

The Company recorded as a $126,250 deemed dividend and as a $126,250 increase in additional paid-in capital, the beneficial conversion feature allocated to the convertible preferred stock only ($126,250) based on a relative allocation of the fair values of the convertible preferred stock ($287,083) and the warrants ($281,580) to the gross actual proceeds received ($250,000). The fair value of the warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: stock price of $0.689 per share, exercise prices of $0.9375 and $1.25 per share, term of 3 years, expected volatility of 71.4%, and risk-free interest rate of 4%.

At December 31, 2009, US China Kangtai has an unrecognized deferred United States income tax liability relating to undistributed earnings of Harbin Hainan Kangda. These earnings are considered to be permanently invested in operations outside the United States. Generally, such earnings become subject to United States income tax upon the remittance of dividends and under certain other circumstances. Determination of the amount of the unrecognized deferred United States income tax liability with respect to such earnings is not practicable.

BVI China Kangtai was incorporated in the BVI and is not subject to tax on income or on capital gains.

Harbin Hainan Kangda and Taishan Kangda were incorporated in the PRC and are subject to PRC income tax which is computed according to the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC. Harbin Hainan Kangda located its factories in a special economic region in Harbin, the PRC. This economic region allows foreign owned enterprises a two-year income tax exemption beginning in the first year after they become profitable, being 2005 and 2006, and a 50% income tax reduction for the following three years, being 2007 to 2009. Harbin Hainan Kangda was approved as a wholly owned foreign enterprise in March 2005. The effective income tax rate was 15% for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. The income tax rate is increased to 25% beginning from January 1, 2010.

The contract is to be automatically renewed for six months unless either of the two parties gives 30 days written notice of termination. At April 13, 2010, the Contract is still active.

General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009 includes $16,831 incurred to the consultants.

Concentrations and risks

During 2009 and 2008, substantially all of the Company’s assets were located in China and 100% of the Company’s revenues were derived from customers located in China and Taiwan.

Substantially all of Harbin Hainan Kangda and Taishan Kangda’s business operations are conducted in the PRC and governed by PRC laws and regulations.  Because these laws and regulations are relatively new, the interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve uncertainties.

The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of RMB into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of the PRC.  Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payment of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from the transaction, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange by complying with certain procedural requirements.  However, approval from appropriate governmental authorities is required where RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of the PRC to pay capital expenses, such as the repayment of bank loans denominated in foreign currencies.  The PRC government may also at its discretion restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions.
