Overview

The Company focuses on the research, development, manufacturing, marketing and selling of modernized traditional Tibetan medicines in China.

As of December 31, 2010, the Company sold 5 prescription and over-the-counter Tibetan medicine

products; each has been approved by China’s SFDA as having medicinal purpose and has demonstrated safety and efficacy for the treatment of at least one or more therapeutic indications.

In the last two years, YSTP’s business has grown rapidly as a result of China’s strengthening economy, the strong demand in China for traditional Chinese and Tibetan medicines, the government’s efforts to improve health care in China, and the increase in the number of elderly people in China.

For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company’s total revenues amounted to approximately $32.4 million and $23.0 million, respectively. Net income attributable to TBET was $13.1 million and $9.2 million, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with the Revenue Recognition Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 605”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104. Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectibility is reasonably assured.

Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue.

The Company has distributor arrangements with certain parties for sale of its pharmaceutical products. The distributor agreements do not provide chargeback, price protection, or stock rotation rights. Accordingly, revenue is recognized when products are delivered to and received by the distributors.

If the products sold have quality issues, the Company is responsible because of the product warranty included in each sale. However, the customers cannot return merchandise without permission of the Company. The return is recorded on the date the return is authorized. A quality warranty reserve provision has been made for the anticipated cost to replace items. The quality reserve accruals in amount of $1,323,752 and $705,681 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, were included in the accrued expenses and other payables on the consolidated balance sheets.

Revenues are recorded net of value-added taxes.

Prepaid Expenses

Advertising expenses consist primarily of costs of promotion for corporate image and product marketing and costs of direct advertising. The Company records payments made to advertising companies for the purpose of reserving prime-time advertising space as prepaid expenses in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company expenses the prepaid advertising amount when the advertisement is published or aired. All other advertising costs are expensed as incurred. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no prepaid advertising costs.

Also, included in prepaid expenses is GMP authentication, which is being amortized during the period of the certificate of authentication.

Research and development costs

Research and development costs are incurred in the development of the new products and processes, including significant improvements and refinements to existing products. All research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Expenses recorded for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were approximately $618,000 and $612,000, respectively.

Advertising Expense

The Company expenses its advertising costs when the expense is incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were approximately $124,000 and $114,000, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less.

Comprehensive Income

The Company follows the Comprehensive Income Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 220”). Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The Company’s functional currency is the Chinese Renminbi; however the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been translated and presented in United States Dollars. These financial statements are prepared on a historical pro forma basis. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiary and variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. Please also refer to Note 1 for the discussion on accounting for the reorganization and acquisition. These financial statements have been prepared on a historical pro-forma basis.

Translation Adjustment

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, the accounts of the Company were maintained, and its financial statements were expressed, in Chinese Yuan Renminbi (“CNY”). Such financial statements were translated into U.S. Dollars (“USD”) in accordance with the Foreign Currency Matters Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 830”), with the CNY as the functional currency. According to ASC 830, all assets and liabilities were translated at the current exchange rate, stockholders’ equity is translated at the historical rates and income statement items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with the Comprehensive Income Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 220”), as a component of shareholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses are reflected in the income statement.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

The Company adopted the Property, Plant and Equipment in accordance with FASB Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC 360”), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of,” and the accounting and reporting provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations for a Disposal of a Segment of a Business.” The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used in accordance with ASC 360, which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal. Based on its review, the Company believes that, as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no impairments of its long-lived assets.

Factors Affecting Results of Operations – Generally

The Company believes the most significant factors that directly or indirectly affect sales revenues and net income are:

 

   

global economic conditions;

 

   

the changes in China’s macro-economic environment and healthcare-related government strategies and policies;

 

   

the increase in number of elderly people and their perception and acceptance of traditional Tibetan medicine as effective, having fewer side effects, and being a safe alternative to western medicines;

 

   

the Company’s ability to attract and retain distributors, key customers and direct sales force;

 

   

the Company’s ability to selectively pursue strategic acquisitions and licensing opportunities;

 

   

new product introductions by the Company and its competitors; and

 

   

the Company’s ability to price its products at levels that provide favorable margins.

Total revenue was approximately $32.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 as compared to approximately $23 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, an increase of approximately $9.4 million or 40.7%. This increase in total revenue was primarily due to continuous growth in sales of the Company’s existing five commercialized products. The Company’s sales volume for the year ended December 31, 2010 increased 36.9% compared to the same period in 2009. As of December 31, 2010, revenues generated from sales of YSTP’s biggest product revenue contributor, its 25 Ingredients Mandrake Pill, increased 26.8%, from $11.2 million in the twelve months ended December 31, 2009 to $14.2 million in 2010. Expanding YSTP’s existing distributor network also contributed to increases in the Company’s revenue during the twelve months ended December 31, 2010.

YSTP’s gross profit margin has remained flat, from 51% in 2009 to 50% in 2010. For fiscal year 2010, YSTP was able to expand its sales and controlled costs, thus successfully maintaining the gross profit margins despite increases in costs in raw materials.

Selling expenses increased by $406,871 or 41.2%, from $988,385 in 2009 to $1,395,256 in 2010. The increase in selling expenses resulted from an increase in promotional efforts and media advertisement in 2010.

Research and development costs decreased by $6,216, or 1%, from $618,562 in 2009 to $612,346 in 2010. The Company plans to spend about the same dollar amount on its research and development activities in 2011.

Other general and administrative expenses increased by $170,700, or 25%, from $682,089 in 2009 to $852,789 in 2010, primarily as a result of business expansion.

Net interest expense was $187,569 in 2010, compared to net interest expense of $184,961 in the same period of 2009.

The Company’s net income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were $13,142,085 and $9,244,978, respectively. The increase in net income is primarily a result of higher sales revenue and the Company’s efforts to improve efficiencies, including in the management of production costs and administrative expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As highlighted in the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company’s liquidity and available capital resources are impacted by four key components: (i) cash and cash equivalents, (ii) operating activities, (iii) financing activities, and (iv) investing activities.

These cash increases were offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $7,323,358, and a decrease in accounts payable of $23,226. The increase in accounts receivable was primarily due to the Company’s extension of credit to dealers in order to increase sales to such dealers.

(1)

Mr. Guo did not become CEO of TBET until 2010. In July 2009, he became General Manager (the equivalent of CEO) of YSTP. Under his employment agreement with TBET effective April 30, 2010, he is to receive annual compensation of $61,500. His employment does not provide for bonuses, options or other guaranteed compensation but does permit a conditional year-end payment. No such conditional payment was made in 2010. For his services as General Manager of YSTP for one-half of 2009, he was paid a salary of $30,749. In addition, Mr. Guo received non-cash compensation for services rendered in 2009 in the form of a non-plan stock award of 150,000 shares of TBET, the compensation value of which has been valued by the Company at $157,500. This valuation was based on the total shareholders’ equity as of December 31, 2009 divided by the number of shares outstanding immediately before the issuance of shares to Mr. Guo, yielding a per share price of $1.05. As a result, Mr. Guo’s total compensation for 2009 was $188,249.

(2)

Mr. Yu served as General Manager of YSTP prior to Mr. Guo’s arrival in 2009. The salary number reported reflects his total compensation by YSTP, including compensation for his services as General Manager. Mr. Yu’s total compensation in 2010 was less than $100,000. Because Mr. Yu did not serve as principal executive officer in 2010, he was not a named executive officer.

Director Compensation

All directors hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders at which their respective class of directors is re-elected and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. There are no family relationships among the Company’s directors or executive officers. Officers are elected by and serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Employee directors do not receive any compensation for their services. Non-employee directors will be entitled to receive $10,000 per year for serving as directors and may receive option grants from the Company. In addition, non-employee directors are entitled to receive compensation for their actual travel expenses for each Board of Directors meeting attended.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

Tibet Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Tibet Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also 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. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Tibet Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and their results of operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Note 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Tibet Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”), (formerly known as Shangri-La Tibetan Pharmaceuticals, Inc.), was incorporated on December 22, 2009 under the laws of British Virgin Islands. In July 2010, the Company changed its name to Tibet Pharmaceuticals, Inc. China Tibetan Pharmaceuticals Limited (“CTP”), the Company’s 100% owned subsidiary, was established in Hong Kong on January 6, 2010 as a limited liability company. Other than the equity interest in CTP, the Company does not own any assets or conduct any operations. CTP holds all of the outstanding equity interest in Yibo Information Consulting (Shenzhen) Company Ltd., a company established on March 18, 2010 in the PRC as a wholly foreign owned enterprise (“WFOE”). Other than the equity interest in WFOE, CTP does not own any assets or conduct any operations. Yunnan Diqing Shangri-La Tibetan Medicine Co., Ltd was incorporated on April 19, 2000 as a domestic Chinese corporation. On December 24, 2002, it changed its name to Yunnan Shangri-La Tibetan Pharmaceutical Group Limited (“YSTP”). YSTP is engaged in manufacturing, marketing, selling, researching and developing modernized traditional Tibetan medicines in China.

WFOE conducts its business through YSTP via a series of contractual arrangements. YSTP is consolidated as a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The Company does not conduct any substantive operations of its own, but conducts its primary business operations through WFOE’s VIE. The Company holds its interest in the VIE through WFOE.

Effective control over the VIE was transferred to the Company through the series of contractual arrangements without transferring legal ownership in the VIE (“reorganization”). As a result of these contractual arrangements, the Company maintained the ability to approve decisions made by the VIE and was entitled to substantially all of the economic benefits of the VIE, and therefore the Company consolidates the VIE. Immediately before and after the reorganization, the ultimate shareholder controlled the VIE; therefore, the reorganization is accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if the current corporate structure had been in existence throughout the periods presented.

Chinese laws and regulations currently do not prohibit or restrict foreign ownership in pharmaceutical manufacturing businesses. However, Chinese laws and regulations do prevent direct foreign investment in certain industries. On March 26, 2010, to protect the Company’s shareholders from possible future foreign ownership restrictions, YSTP and all of the shareholders of YSTP entered into an entrusted management agreement with WFOE, which provides that WFOE will be entitled to the full guarantee for the performance of such contracts, agreements or transactions entered into by YSTP. WFOE is also entitled to receive the residual return of YSTP. As a result of the agreement, WFOE will absorb 100% of the expected losses and gains of YSTP, which results in WFOE being the primary beneficiary of YSTP.

WFOE also entered into a pledge of equity agreement with the principal shareholders, who pledged all their equity interest in these entities to WFOE. The pledge of equity agreement, which was entered into by each principal shareholder, pledged each of the principal shareholders’ equity interest in WFOE as a guarantee for the entrustment payment under the Entrusted Management Agreement. The provincial Administration for Industry and Commerce approved and registered such pledge of equity by which WFOE owns the right of pledge legally.

In addition, WFOE entered into an option agreement to acquire the principal shareholders’ equity interest in these entities at such times as it may wish to do so.

The followings are brief description of contracts entered between WFOE and YSTP:

Note 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS (Continued)

 

(1) Entrusted Management Agreement. The domestic companies, YSTP and WFOE, have entered into an Entrusted Management Agreement, which provides that WFOE will be fully and exclusively responsible for the management of YSTP. As consideration for such services, YSTP has agreed to pay WFOE a management fee during the term of this agreement and the management fee shall equal to YSTP’s estimated earnings before tax. Also, WFOE will assume all operating risks related to this entrusted management service to YSTP and bear all losses of YSTP. The term of this agreement will be from the effective date thereof to the earlier of the following: (1) the winding up of YSTP, or (2) the termination date of this Agreement to be determined by the parties hereto, or (3) the date on which WFOE completes the acquisition of YSTP.

(2) Exclusive Option Agreement. All the shareholders of YSTP as well as YSTP has entered into an Exclusive Option Agreement with WFOE, which provides that WFOE will be entitled to acquire such shares form the current shareholders upon certain terms and conditions, meanwhile WFOE will be entitled an irrevocable exclusive purchase option to purchase all or part of the assets and business of YSTP, if such a purchase is or becomes allowable under PRC laws and regulations. The Exclusive Option Agreement also prohibits the current shareholders of YSTP as well as YSTP from transferring any portion of their equity interests, business or assets to anyone other than WFOE. WFOE has not yet taken any corporate action to exercise this right of purchase, and there is no guarantee that it will do so or will be permitted to do so by applicable law at such times as it may wish to do so.

(3) Shareholders’ Voting Proxy Agreement. All the shareholders of YSTP has executed a Shareholders’ Voting Proxy Agreement to irrevocably appoint the persons designated by WFOE with the exclusive right to exercise, on their behalf, all of their Voting Rights in accordance with the laws and YSTP’s Articles of Association, including but not limited to the rights to sell or transfer all or any of their equity interests of YSTP, and to appoint and elect the directors and Chairman as the authorized legal representative of YSTP. This agreement will be only terminated prior to the completion of acquisition of all of the equity interests in, or all assets or business of YSTP.

(4) Pledge of Equity Agreement. WFOE and the shareholders of YSTP have entered into a Pledge of Equity Agreement, pursuant to which all shareholder pledges all of their shares (100%) of YSTP, as appropriate, to WFOE. If YSTP or any of its respective shareholders breaches its respective contractual obligations in the “Entrusted Management Agreement”, “Exclusive Option Agreement” and “Shareholders’ Voting Proxy Agreement”, WFOE as Pledge, will be entitled to certain rights to foreclose on the pledged equity interests. Such YSTP shareholders cannot dispose of the pledged equity interests or take any actions that would prejudice WFOE’s interest

Except for the disclosed above, there are no arrangements that could require the Company to provide financial support to the variable interest entities, including events or circumstances that could expose the Company to a loss. As stated in the disclosure of various agreements between the Company and its VIE, the Company has rights to acquire any portion of the equity interests of the VIE. Also the Company may allocate its available funds to its VIE for business purpose. There are no fixed terms of such arrangements.

Note 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The Company’s functional currency is the Chinese Renminbi; however the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been translated and presented in United States Dollars. These financial statements are prepared on a historical pro forma basis. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiary and variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. Please also refer to Note 1 for the discussion on accounting for the reorganization and acquisition. These financial statements have been prepared on a historical pro-forma basis.

Principles of Consolidation

Pursuant to US GAAP, YSTP is the VIE of the TBET and the TBET is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. Accordingly, the VIE has been consolidated in the TBET’s financial statements.

TBET, CTP and WFOE were formed in 2009, 2010 and 2010, respectively, by YSTP and its shareholders as part of a plan by YSTP’s shareholders to reorganize YSTP’s corporate structure in preparation for listing in the U.S. In connection with the formation of TBET, CTP and WFOE, WFOE entered into several VIE agreements, or Control Agreements, with YSTP and its shareholders. These companies were formed, and the Control Agreements were executed, for the express purpose of restructuring YSTP as the controlled affiliate of a BVI company so that the resulting entity could become a publicly-traded company in the U.S. The shareholders having 100% of the voting rights in YSTP shares entered into a resolution dated December 10, 2009 that authorized this restructuring and the specific steps of forming a BVI company, a Hong Kong subsidiary of that company, the formation of Chinese wholly-foreign owned enterprise owned by the Hong Kong company, and entry into the Control Agreements. These resolutions require TBET to consolidate YSTP’s financial statements with TBET’s from its inception.

Through the VIE agreements, TBET effectively has complete management and ownership control over YSTP, the VIE, and is able to dictate its operations. The equity holders of YSTP became the controlling owners of TBET. By reason of the VIE agreements, TBET is also able to obtain the financial interests such as obtaining periodic income of the VIE through technical and consulting service arrangements and obtaining the net assets of VIE through purchase of their equities at essentially no cost basis (by virtue of TBET’s ownership of CTP and CTP’s ownership of WFOE). TBET therefore concluded that its interest in the VIE is not a noncontrolling interest and therefore it is not classified as such. The amount of noncontrolling interest of the original shareholders of YSTP holding shares of the VIE for the TBET is zero. They exercise no controls over the VIE and no financial interests of ownership are due to them either for periodic income or the net assets. Indeed, they have ceded all such rights to WFOE (and, as a result, TBET) though the Control Agreements. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements show the operations of TBET and its subsidiaries as well as YSTP as being operated under the common control of TBET.

Prior to these transactions, TBET, CTP, and WFOE were holding companies. Pursuant to ASC 805, the above transactions were accounted for as reorganization under common control. TBET presents the operation of YSTP since inception on a historical pro forma basis in the accompanying financial statements.

Translation Adjustment

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, the accounts of the Company were maintained, and its financial statements were expressed, in Chinese Yuan Renminbi (“CNY”). Such financial statements were translated into U.S. Dollars (“USD”) in accordance with the Foreign Currency Matters Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 830”), with the CNY as the functional currency. According to ASC 830, all assets and liabilities were translated at the current exchange rate, stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and income statement items are translated at the average exchange rate

for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with the Comprehensive Income Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 220”), as a component of shareholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses are reflected in the income statement.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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.

Comprehensive Income

The Company follows the Comprehensive Income Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 220”). Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company’s operations are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC, by the general state of the PRC’s economy. The Company’s business may be influenced by change in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

The Company is subject to substantial risks from, among other things, intense competition associated with the industry in general, other risks associated with financing, liquidity requirements, rapidly changing customer requirements, limited operating history, foreign currency exchange rates and the volatility of public markets.

Contingencies

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management and legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought.

Contingencies (Continued)

 

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material would be disclosed.

Loss contingencies considered to be remote by management are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantee would be disclosed.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less.

Accounts Receivable

The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Reserves are recorded primarily on a specific identification basis. There are no allowances for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company adopted the Property, Plant and Equipment in accordance with FASB Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC 360”), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of,” and the accounting and reporting provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations for a Disposal of a Segment of a Business.” The Company evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used in accordance with ASC 360, which requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal. Based on its review, the Company believes that, as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no impairments of its long-lived assets.

Note 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with the Revenue Recognition Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 605”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104. Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectibility is reasonably assured.

Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue.

The Company has distributor arrangements with certain parties for sale of its pharmaceutical products. The distributor agreements do not provide chargeback, price protection, or stock rotation rights. Accordingly, revenue is recognized when products are delivered to and received by the distributors.

If the products sold have quality issues, the Company is responsible because of the product warranty included in each sale. However, the customers cannot return merchandise without permission of the Company. The return is recorded on the date the return is authorized. A quality warranty reserve provision has been made for the anticipated cost to replace items. The quality reserve accruals in amount of $1,323,752 and $705,681 as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, were included in the accrued expenses and other payables on the consolidated balance sheets.

Revenues are recorded net of value-added taxes.

Prepaid Expenses

Advertising expenses consist primarily of costs of promotion for corporate image and product marketing and costs of direct advertising. The Company records payments made to advertising companies for the purpose of reserving prime-time advertising space as prepaid expenses in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company expenses the prepaid advertising amount when the advertisement is published or aired. All other advertising costs are expensed as incurred. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no prepaid advertising costs.

Also, included in prepaid expenses is GMP authentication, which is being amortized during the period of the certificate of authentication.

Research and development costs

Research and development costs are incurred in the development of the new products and processes, including significant improvements and refinements to existing products. All research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Expenses recorded for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were approximately $618,000 and $612,000, respectively.

Advertising Expense

The Company expenses its advertising costs when the expense is incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were approximately $124,000 and $114,000, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Income Taxes (Continued)

 

There are no differences between the Company’s tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts, and therefore, there were no deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities at December 31, 2010 and 2009.

The Company is entitled to exemption from PRC income tax between 2008 and 2012. According to tax preferential policy of Yunnan Diqing Tibet Autonomous State and approval of governmental tax agency, after approval of document by the tax bureau of the People’s Government Office of Yunnan Diqing Autonomous State, the tax bureau of the Yunnan Diqing Tibet Autonomous State agreed to exempt the Company from income tax for 5 years between 2008 and 2012. The dollar effect of this tax holiday is $3,285,521 and $2,311,245 for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The pro-forma per share effect is $0.28 per share for the year of 2010 and $0.20 per share for the same period of 2009.

In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), “Accounting for uncertainty in Income Taxes.” FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for Income Taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. It also provides guidance on de-recognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition and clearly scopes income taxes out of SFAS 5, “Accounting for Contingencies.” FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. As a result of implementing FIN 48, there have been no adjustments to the Company’s financial statements. SFAS No. 109 and FIN 48 were superseded by the Income Taxes Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 740”) in September 2009. However, this portion of the codification has no application to the Company as stated above. The Company is not subject to corporate taxes until 2012. However, there were no items of this nature incurred by the Company in 2010 or 2009.

Statement of Cash Flows

In accordance with the Statement of Cash Flows Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC 230”), cash flows from the Company’s operations are based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets because of translation adjustments.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash, accounts receivable and other receivables arising from its normal business activities. The Company places its cash in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions. The Company has a diversified customer base, most of which are in China. The Company controls credit risk related to accounts receivable through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, based upon factors surrounding the credit risk, establishes an allowance, if required, for uncollectible accounts and, as a consequence, believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure beyond such allowance is limited. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, there was no allowance for uncollectible accounts as previously discussed.

Prior to January 1, 2006 the proportion of allocation for reserve was 10 percent of the profit after tax to the surplus reserve fund and additional 5 to 10 percent to the public affair fund. The public welfare fund reserve was limited to 50 percent of the registered capital. Effective January 1, 2006, there is now only one fund requirement. The reserve is 10 percent of income after tax, not to exceed 50 percent of registered capital.

Statutory Reserve funds are restricted for set off against losses, expansion of production and operation or increase in register capital of the respective company. Statutory public welfare fund is restricted to the capital expenditures for the collective welfare of employees. These reserves are not transferable to the Company in the form of cash dividends, loans or advances. These reserves are therefore not available for distribution except in liquidation. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had allocated $4,140,903 and $2,811,323, respectively, to these non-distributable reserve funds.
