Benda Pharmaceutical, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
 
1. Organization
 
Benda Pharmaceutical, Inc. (“Benda”) is a corporation organized under Delaware Law and headquartered in Hubei Province, the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).

Ever Leader Holdings Limited (“Ever Leader”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Benda, is a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong SAR.

Ever Leader owns 95% of the issued and outstanding capital of Hubei Tongji Benda Ebei Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. (“Benda Ebei”), a Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture company incorporated under the laws of PRC. Mr. Yiqing Wan owns 5% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Benda Ebei. Benda Ebei owns: (i) 95% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Jiangling Benda Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd., (“Jiangling Benda”) a company formed under the laws of PRC; (ii) 95% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Yidu Benda Chemical Co. Ltd., (“Yidu Benda”) a company incorporated under the laws of PRC; and (iii) 75% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Beijing Shusai Pharyngitis Research Co. Ltd., (“Beijing Shusai”) a company incorporated under the laws of PRC. Mr. Yiqing Wan owns: (i) 5% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Jingling Benda; and (ii) 5% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Yidu Benda. Mr. Feng Wang owns 25% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Beijing Shusai.

On April 5, 2007, Benda Ebei entered into an Equity Transfer Agreements with Shenzhen Yuanzheng Investment Development Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen Yuanxing Gene City Development Co., Ltd., the shareholders of Shenzhen SiBiono GeneTech Co., Ltd (“SiBiono”), to purchase 27.57% and 30% respectively of the shares of SiBiono’s common stock for total consideration of RMB 60 million due and payable on or before April 30, 2007. On June 11, 2007, Benda Ebei entered into an Equity Transfer Agreement with Huimin Zhang and Yaojin Wang, the individual shareholders of SiBiono, to purchase 1.6% and 0.96% respectively of the shares of SiBiono’s common stock for total consideration of RMB 2.56 million due and payable on or before June 30, 2007. Altogether, the total consideration for 60.13% shares of SiBiono’s common stock was RMB 62.56 million or $8.58 million. As of Sep 30, 2010 an accumulated amount, approximately RMB 52.83 million or $7.16 million was paid leaving a balance of RMB 9.73 million or $1.42 million.

Benda, Ever Leader, Benda Ebei, Jiangling Benda, Yidu Benda, Beijing Shusai and SiBiono shall be referred to herein collectively as the “Company”. The Company is engaged principally in the business of identifying, discovering, developing, and manufacturing conventional medicines, active pharmaceuticals, bulk chemicals (or pharmaceutical immediates), and Traditional Chinese Medicines (“TCM”) for the treatment of some of the most widespread common ailments and diseases (e.g. common cold, diabetes, and cancer).

 The organization and ownership structure of the Company is as follows:


Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has recurring losses and has a working capital deficiency at September 30, 2010. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 
6

 

While the Company is attempting to produce sufficient revenues, the Company’s cash position may not be enough to support the Company’s daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering. Management believes that the actions presently being taking to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to increase revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurance to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenues. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

2. Basis of Preparation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 filed with the SEC on May 18, 2010. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the consolidated financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements as reported in the 2009 annual report on Form 10-K have been omitted.

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Benda, Ever Leader, Benda Ebei, Jiangling Benda, Yidu Benda, Beijing Shusai and Sibiono. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the current year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results when ultimately realized could differ from those estimates.
 
3. Earnings per share
 
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period.  Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially diluting securities outstanding during each period.  At September 30, 2010, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share.
 
4. Restatement

On May 12, 2010, the Company discovered that its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the quarterly periods within the year 2007 to 2009 should not be relied upon due to multiple errors found in the accounting treatment of a business combination transaction completed in March 2007 resulting in adjustment of assets and liabilities to fair market value. The Company also adjusted certain other assets and intangible assets due to errors in the accounting treatment of these assets resulting in additional expenses for the prior periods. To correct the above noted errors, the Company has restated the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Cash Flows for the three and nine months period ended September 30, 2009, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The impact to the September 30, 2009 Balance Sheet is not presented here. The following is a summary items affected by the corrections described above:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
 
 The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the information contained in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and the related notes thereto, appearing elsewhere herein, and in conjunction with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
 
Forward Looking Information
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Report”) contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are based on management’s exercise of business judgment as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management.  When used in this document, the words “may”,   "  will”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, and words of similar import, are intended to identify any forward-looking statements.  You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.  These statements reflect our current view of future events and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, as noted in the Company’s Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC, and as noted below.  Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.  We undertake no obligation, and do not intend, to update, revise or otherwise publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof, or to reflect the occurrence of any unanticipated events.  Although we believe that our expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our expectations will materialize.

Critical Accounting Policies

Accounting policies discussed in this section are those that we consider to be most critical to an understanding of our financial statements because they inherently involve significant judgment and uncertainties.  For all of these estimates, we caution that future events rarely develop exactly as forecast, and the best estimates routinely require adjustment.

Revenue Recognition

Among the most important accounting policies affecting the Group’s consolidated financial statements is its policy of recognizing revenue. Under this policy, all of the following criteria must be met in order for us to recognize revenue:

1.           Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
2.           Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;
3.           The seller's price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and
4.           Collectibility is reasonably assured.

The majority of the Company's revenue results from sales contracts with distributors and revenue is recorded upon the shipment of goods. Management conducts credit background checks for new customers as a means to reduce the subjectivity of assuring collectibility. Sales are presented net of value added tax (VAT). No return allowance is made as products returns are insignificant based on historical experience.

Results of Operations

The Nine Months and Three Months Ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.

 
17

 

Revenue:
The Company has five core operating segments: Benda Ebei, Jiangling Benda, Yidu Benda, Beijing Shusai and SiBiono. Benda Ebei manufactures branded/generic medicines; Jiangling Benda manufactures active pharmaceutical ingredients (API); Yidu Benda manufactures bulk chemicals; Beijing Shusai operates and distributes Pharyngitis Killer Therapy; and SiBiono is a gene therapy company dedicated to the development, manufacturing and commercialization of gene therapy product, Gedicine.

Revenue decreased by $0.49 million (or 2.81%) to $16.86 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 from $17.35 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and increased by $0.80 million (or 13.43%) to $6.70 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 from $5.90 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. Decrease in revenue principally attributed to the following factors:

1.
One of Benda’s subsidiaries, Benda Ebei’s revenue decreased $0.57 million (or 4.19%) to $13.05 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 from $13.62 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and increased by $0.65 million (or 13.29%) to $5.54 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 from $4.89 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. It was mainly due to maintenance activity during the three months ended September 30, 2010, no such activity in the same period during 2009.
 
 
2.
One of Benda’s subsidiaries, Jiangling Benda, achieved $1.11 million and $0.82 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, and $0.098 million and $0.027 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Jiangling Benda plans to produce four types of active pharmaceutical ingredients and they are Ribavirin, Asarin, Levofloxacin and Ribose whereas the production of Ribose does not require the GMP certificate, but the production of the other three products do require the GMP certificate.

On April 9, 2008, Jiangling Benda received the approved GMP Certificate from the Chinese State Food and Drug Administration ("SFDA") which authorized the production of Ribavrin.  The other two products, Asarin and Levolfozacin, are still under the stage of GMP certificate approving process. Management could not estimate the exact timing for obtaining those certificates.

3.
One of Benda’s subsidiaries, Yidu Benda ceased operations due to the plant closing in mid January 2007 to upgrade its waste water treatment system to comply with new environmental standards enforced by PRC local government.

Yidu Benda completed its upgrading of the waste water system and passed the government’s verification and testing of equipment in October 2007. It is now permitted for the testing on actual production process. Once the actual products are produced, then the environmental government bodies will re-test the production results. Management cannot estimate the exact timing for obtaining the final approval on the actual production process. Furthermore, management is searching for new products to be produced in Yidu Benda with higher profit margins.

4.
One of Benda’s subsidiaries, Beijing Shusai was incorporated on July 15, 2006. China’s State Food and Drug Administration (SFDA) recently experienced an overhaul in its policies and regulatory systems in an effort to fight against corruption in Chinese pharmaceutical industry. Beijing Shusai’s operation has been adversely affected by this recent policy changes which prohibits some state-owned hospitals from forming alliances with private companies. Management cannot estimate that such situation could be resolved in the coming future.

5.
One of Benda’s subsidiaries, SiBiono, net revenue decreased $0.21 million (or 7.34%) to $2.70 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 from $2.91 million the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and increased by $0.07 million (or 7.29%) to $1.06 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 from $0.99 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease in net revenue is mainly due to the fact that SiBiono previously underwent a process of re-engineering of the production department during the year of 2010.

Gross Profit
Gross profit decreased $0.22 million (or 2.86%) to $7.36million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 from $7.57 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and increased by $0.13 million (or 4.61%) to $2.96 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 from $2.83 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, which was mainly due to the decrease in sales volume of Gendicine which has a high gross profit margin.

Selling Expenses:
Selling expenses decreased $0.08 million (or 4.39%) to $1.79 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 from $1.87 million the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and decreased by $0.43 million (or 50.55%) to $0.42 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 from $0.85 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, primarily due to the increased promotion efforts made by the management.

General and Administrative Expenses:
General and administrative decreased $3.17 million (or 60.59%) to $2.06 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 from $5.23 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and decreased by $0.59 million (or 48.86%) to $0.62 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 from $1.21 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009, primarily due to less bad debt expense incurred in 2010.

Operating Income / (Loss):
The Company had an operating income of $1.09 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and $1.08 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, while the operating loss from comparative period was $0.53 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and an operating income of $0.33 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009.

Interest Expense:
Interest expense was $1.19 million and $2.10 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 respectively, while interest expense was $0.46 million and $0.47 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 respectively. The decrease is mainly due to the amortization of debt discount related to the convertible note during the first quarter of 2009 while there was no such expense in the same period of 2010.

Income Taxes:
Benda is subject to Delaware, United State of America tax, but no provision for income taxes was made for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 as Benda did not have reportable taxable income for the period.

Ever Leader, a wholly owned subsidiary of Benda, is subject to Hong Kong tax, but no provisions for income taxes was made for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 as Ever Leader did not have reportable taxable income for the periods.

Benda Ebei was registered as a Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Venture on May 26, 2004 and is subject to the tax laws applicable to Sino-Foreign Equity Joint Ventures in the PRC.  Benda Ebei, starting from 2005, is fully exempt from PRC enterprise income tax for two years starting from the first profit-making year, followed by a 50% reduction in the state income taxes, for the following three years.

Jiangling Benda and Yidu Benda are cross-municipal investment entities and enjoy the same tax treatment as Sino-Foreign Joint Ventures, starting from 2005, and were therefore exempt from PRC enterprise income tax for two years starting from the first profit-making year, followed by a 50% reduction in the state income taxes, for the following three years. Cross-municipal investments entities refer to entities that are incorporated in one municipal region but have investments in another municipal region.

The exemption periods for Benda Ebei, Jiangling Benda and Yidu Benda expired in the year of 2006, after which they are subject to a 50% reduction in state income taxes, at 18%; whereas the full income tax rate is 33%. The remaining tax holidays will expire in 2010.

However, starting and effective from January 1, 2008, the full income tax rate changed from 33% to 25% according to the new PRC taxation regulations. Therefore these subsidiaries are subject to the regular full income tax rate at 25% after the tax holidays expire in 2010.


According to the new taxation regulations starting and effective from January 1, 2008, Beijing Shusai is subject to
the full income tax rate of 25%.

According to the new taxation regulations starting and effective from January 1, 2008, SiBiono, which is located in Shenzhen, a Special Economic District of PRC, is subject to the full income tax rate of 25% gradually in five years as following:

Year
 
Tax rate
 
2008
    18 %
2009
    20 %
2010
    22 %
2011
    24 %
2012 and thereafter
    25 %

Benda Ebei recorded $695,820 income tax for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and $352,033 income tax for the three months ended September 30, 2010.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash used by the operating activities was $0.74 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, while for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was positive $0.88 million.

a)
Non-cash operating activities, reconciliation items to net loss
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, an amount about $6.20 million non-cash operating activities was reconciled back to the net loss and which mainly included amortization of debt discount and debt issue cost, bad debt provision, amortization of intangible assets, and depreciation.

However, for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, about $2.43 million of non-cash operating activities was reconciled back to the net loss and summarized as follows: $1.74 million incurred on depreciation; $0.24 million incurred on bad debt provision; and $0.44 million incurred on amortization of intangible assets.

b)
Trade receivables
 
The net amount of trade receivable was increased by $1.81 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Management acknowledges that the net balance of the trade receivable, as of September 30, 2010, was a significant asset to the company. However, management believes that the above situation is temporarily due to the following reasons:

1)
Customers who have sales relationships with our company are all relatively big business wholesale enterprises and they have all passed the examination of GMP Certificate so that  collectability from those is out of question;

 
21

 

2)
Management realized that it did affect the cash flow situation of the company; therefore the company will put more efforts to reduce the balance of trade receivables.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, the amount spent in investing activities were $1.08 million and $0.30 million respectively. The investing activities were relatively small for the reporting periods.

Financing cash inflow was $2.26 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, while the financing cash outflow was $0.01 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, and results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company is subject to certain market risks, including changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates.  The Company does not undertake any specific actions to limit those exposures.

Item 4T.  Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

a)   Evaluation of Disclosure Controls. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of our first fiscal quarter 2010 pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities and Exchange Act.  Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on his evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2010 due the following factors:
 
1. There is a risk of management override given that our officers have a high degree of involvement in our day to day operations.
 
2. Significant errors were found in our prior years accounting treatments that require restatements of our prior years filed financial statements.
 
3. There is personal loan to executives which is a violation of Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002
 
Management is currently evaluating remediation plans for the above control deficiencies.

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions

(b)   Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Our management team will continue to evaluate our internal control over financial reporting in 2010 as we implement our Sarbanes Oxley Act testing.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
 
1.
On November 23, 2006, Benda Ebei entered into an Equity Transfer Agreement with Xiaozhi Zhang (“Zhang”), to purchase approximately 6.24% of SiBiono’s common stock for a total consideration of Rmb12.48 million (Rmb6.24 million in cash and shares of our common stock equal to Rmb6.24 million) (or $1.71 million) which was due and payable on or before March 31, 2007.

Due to the fact that the signed agreement on November 23, 2006 was not practically executable according to the PRC regulations, Benda Ebei asked Zhang to terminate the signed agreement and sign a new agreement that was feasible under PRC regulations with essentially the same terms.

However, Zhang refused to sign the new agreement and applied to the Shenzhen Arbitration Commission (the “Commission”) in April 2007 for enforcement of the original agreement. Zhang requested the Commission to require Benda Ebei to pay for the total consideration, penalty for late payment and the related legal and arbitration expenses.

On November 27, 2007, Shenzhen Arbitration Commission determined that:

 
1.
Benda Ebei should pay for the consideration of Rmb 6.24 million, equal to 50% of the total consideration set forth in the Equity Transfer Agreement. For the other 50% of the total consideration which was supposed to be settled in the form of issuing common stock, since Zhang did not make an arbitration request on how to execute the arrangement, the Arbitration Commission did not make an award on this particular part.
 
2.
Benda Ebei should pay for the penalty of Rmb 46,800;
 
3.
Benda Eebi should pay for legal and arbitration expenses of Rmb 268,971.

On May 22, 2008, Benda Ebei applied to Shenzhen People Court to terminate above mentioned arbitration. The termination is based on the ground that Xiaozhi Zhang does not own all 6.24% of SiBiono’s common stock. In fact, he only owns 3.28% of SiBiono’s stock. The application has been accepted by Shenzhen People Court and is waiting for its further investigation.

2.
SiBiono patents - on January 29, 2008, SiBiono entrusted Grandall Legal Group Shenzhen Law Firm to issue a legal letter to Zhaohui Peng, one of the shareholders of Sibiono and the inventor of Gendicine, demanding that he transfer all the title of patents to SiBiono.
 
On June 18, 1999, during the formation of SiBiono, Zhaohui Peng transferred the rights to the patent “A new method for manufacturing recombinant adenovirus” and related research results to SiBiono as a payment for the registered capital. In return, Zhaohui Peng was granted 32.03% of the common stock of SiBiono.
 
From 1999 to 2007, SiBiono successfully obtained various technology funds from various government technology agencies to support the further research and development activities of Gendicine. Due to this significant funding obtained by SiBiono, Sibiono developed five additional patents which are summarized as follows:

As indicated in the above table, Item 1, the patent “A new method for manufacturing recombinant adenovirus” had been assigned to SiBiono; however, the other approved patents (item 2 through item 4) in PRC still have not been assigned to SiBiono. The Group believes that all the above mentioned patents should be rightfully transferred to SiBiono, a subsidiary of the Group. Accordingly, the above mentioned legal letter was issued on this ground.

On August 27, 2008, the Group through its subsidiary, SiBiono filed an application to the Guongdong Province Shenzhen City (Middle) Peoples’ Court and demand Zhaozhu Peng to transfer back all the mentioned patents that mentioned in above to SiBiono. The case has been accepted by the Court and is waiting for its further investigation.
