TONGLI PHARMACEUTICALS (USA), INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 AND 2010
(UNAUDITED)

1
ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Tongli Pharmaceuticals (USA), Inc.(the “Company”), through an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, Harbin Tianmu Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. (“Tianmu Pharmaceuticals”), develops, produces and sells a  wide variety of pharmaceuticals and healthcare products in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC” or “ China”) that are based on traditional Chinese medicine (“TCM”).  In August 2011, the Company formed Harbing Lvnong Plant Ltd. (“Lvnong”) to plant and sell herbs in China. Lvnong is 100% owned by our indirect wholly owned subsidiary, Heilongjiang Tongli Technology Co., Ltd .

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”)for interim financial  information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full year or any other periods. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011.

The balance sheet as of March 31, 2011 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for the complete financial statements.

The Company has evaluated events after the date of these financial statements through the date these financial statements were issued.  There were no material subsequent events as of that date.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of: (i) the Company (ii) the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary American Tony Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“American Tony”), (iii) American Tony’s wholly owned subsidiary, Heilongjiang Tongli Technology Co., Ltd., a PRC company (“Tongli Technology”) and (iv) Tongli Technology’s wholly owned subsidiaries, Tianmu Pharmaceuticals and Lvnong, each PRC companies.  All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Uses of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 net revenue and expenses during each reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 
4

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company adopted ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other then quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, inventory,prepaid expense, accounts payable and other accrued expenses approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value in accordance with ASC 820.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost, determined using the weighted average cost method, and net realizable value.  Costs include materials, labor and manufacturing overhead.  Net realizable value is the estimated selling price, in the ordinary course of business, less estimated costs to complete and dispose.  Management periodically compares the cost of inventory with the market value and an allowance is made for writing down the inventory to its market value, if lower than cost. No allowance for inventory markdown is considered necessary for six months ended September 30, 2011and 2010.

Harvested Chinese herbs inventories are stated at lower of cost or market. Cost of growing herbs includes director labor and material costs accumulated through the balance sheet date.

Impairment of Long Lived Assets
 
Long-lived assets, which include property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the assets.

 
5

 
 
The Company accounts for the impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with the guidance of FASB ASC 360-10-20. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment when circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable.  For assets that are to be held and used, impairment is recognized when the estimated undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset or group of assets is less than their carrying value.  If impairment exists, an adjustment is made to write the asset down to its fair value, and a loss is recorded as the difference between the carrying value and fair value.  Fair values are determined based on quoted market values, discounted cash flows or internal and external appraisals, as applicable.  Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of carrying value or estimated net realizable value. Based on its review, the Company believes that, as of September 30, 2011, there were no significant impairments of its long-lived assets used in operations.

Deferred income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740 “Income Taxes”which requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  In addition, ASC 740 requires recognition of future tax benefits, such as carry-forwards, to the extent that realization of such benefits is more likely than not and that a valuation allowance be provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Management reviews this valuation allowance periodically and makes adjustments as warranted.

Foreign currency translation
 
Since the Company operates primarily in the PRC, the Company’s functional currency is the Chinese Renminbi (”RMB”).  For financial reporting purposes, RMB has been translated into United States dollars ("USD") as the reporting currency.  Equity accounts are translated at historical rates. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the reporting period. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of stockholders' equity as "Accumulated other comprehensive income". Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency translations are included in accumulated other comprehensive income.
 
Revenue Recognition

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, and no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured.  Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as advances from customers.The Company sells primarily to distributors who subsequently sell the merchandise. The agreements with distributors do not provide for the right of return.  Return from distributors has historically been immaterial and accordingly no reserve is deemed necessary as of September 30, 2011 and 2010.

In September 2008, the Company entered into a Patent Assignment Agreement (the “Lanhai Agreement”) with Harbin Lanhai Biochemical Company Limited (“Lanhai”) under which the Company agreed to acquire a patent related to a product called LanhaiSpirulina Calcium Tablet. Pursuant to the Lanhai Agreement, Lanhai agreed to provide the Company with the product formula as well as the technical support and assistance necessary for the Company to obtain approval for the product by the China State Food & Drug Administration (“SFDA”).  Under the Lanhai Agreement, the Company made a payment of RMB7,030,000 (approximately $1.03 million) in October 2008, representing the entire purchase price for the subject patent. The Company is not obligated to make any subsequent payment. The patent application was accepted by the State Intellectual Property Office of China (“SIPO”) on March 14, 2008 and, if granted, the patent will expire on March 13, 2028 pursuant to PRC patent laws.

The term of the Lanhai Agreement is from November 1, 2008 to October 30, 2013. Title to this patent will not be assigned to the Company until the patent assignment is properly recorded with SIPO. The recording of this assignment was yet to be confirmed by SIPO.

Based on ASC 805-50-30 “Initial Measurement of Acquisition of Assets Rather Than a Business” and ASC350-30 “General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill”, the payment of RMB7,030,000 for acquiring the patent was recorded as an asset at cost. The payment was originally recorded as a deposit which would be recorded as an intangible asset once the Company obtains title to this patent, which asset will be subsequently amortized over the life of the patent.

During 2010, the Company reached an unwritten mutual understanding with Lanhai that if the Company cannot obtain title to the patent before the end of the contract period (i.e., October 30, 2013), the entire payment will be refunded to the Company. Although the Company believes this understanding to be binding on the parties, it was not explicitly stipulated in the Lanhai Agreement or otherwise memorialized.

On June 17, 2011, the Company entered into a Termination Agreement with Lanhai pursuant to which the Lanhai Agreement was terminated. The parties agreed that, because the patent assignment recording process took too long, the Company will return the LanhaiSpirulina Calcium Tablet product and related intellectual property to Lanhai.  Pursuant to the Termination Agreement, Lanhai agreed to refund the total purchase price of RMB7,030,000 in three installments. The first installment of RMB2,000,000 will be refunded prior to June 30, 2011, the second installment of RMB2,000,000 will be refunded prior to July 30, 2011 and the last installment of RMB3,030,000 will be refunded prior to August 30, 2011. The Termination Agreement also provides that the Company is entitled to initiate litigation against Lanhai if Lanhai fails to fully refund the total purchase price before August 30, 2011. On June 27, 2011, Lanhai refunded the first installment of RMB2,000,000.  The recording of the patent assignment was terminated in June 2011 as well. The second portion of refund of RMB 2,000,000 was received on July 18, 2011. The third portion of refund of RMB 3,030,000 was received on August 2, 2011.

On March 21, 2010, the Company entered into a New Drug Assignment Agreement (the “Tonghua Agreement”) with TonghuaYisheng Pharmaceuticals Company Limited (“Tonghua”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to purchase a new drug candidate, called Nafarelin, from Tonghua for a purchase price of RMB33,000,000 (approximately $4.85 million). The total purchase price is payable in three installments: 33% of the total purchase price (approximately $1.6 million) was paid upon execution of the Tonghua Agreement in March 2010; another 33% (approximately $1.6 million) was paid in March 2011 (although it is required to be paid upon conclusion of third clinical trial for the product pursuant to the terms of the Tonghua Agreement) and the balance is payable upon conclusion of the transfer.

Nafarelin is a proposed treatment for endometriosis and prostate cancer. At a minimum, completion of the third phase clinical trail is a pre-condition to receipt of the New Drug Approval Certificate from the SFDA. The SFDA new drug approval procedure is separate and distinct from the patent prosecution procedure. To date, neither Tonghua nor the Company has applied or intend to apply for patent protection for Nafarelin or the formula or process related to Nafarelin. Once Tonghua is granted the New Drug Approval Certificate for Nafarelin, according to pharmaceutical laws of PRC, the Company, as the assignee of the New Drug Approved Certificate, shall receive 4 years of exclusive protection.  As described below, the Company regards such protection period as the appropriate amortization period. The patent protection is irrelevant for purposes of amortization in determining the life of the drug as the Company will not apply for patent protection for Nafarelin.

The Company is not be responsible for conducting or paying for any clinical trial and/or research and development in connection with the new drug application for Nafarelin. Pursuant to the Tonghua Agreement, Tonghua shall continue the research, development and clinical trial work for Nafarelin until the SFDA grants the New Drug Approval Certificate and the product is ready to be marketed. Tonghua is listed as the applicant for the SFDA new drug approval process for this product. Once SFDA approval is obtained, the Company will be able to consummate the assignment and enjoy the protection afforded by the New Drug Approval Certificate. In addition, the Company’s ability to commercialize this new product also requires assistance and cooperation from Tonghua, which Tonghua is obligated to provide to us under the Tonghua Agreement.

Under PRC law, the SFDA’s New Drug Approval Certificate grants certain exclusive protections to approved new drugs, meaning that the subject formula may not be manufactured by other parties in China. The exclusive protection periods for the new drugs vary from 4 to 12 years depending on the category of the new drug. Because the Company shall be the beneficiary of the exclusive protection during the applicable period (the so-called “new drug approval period”), upon consummation of the transaction contemplated by the Tonghua Agreement, the Company will regard the protection period as the appropriate amortization period. Based on ASC 805-50-30 “Initial Measurement on Acquisition of Assets Rather Than a Business” and ASC350-30 “General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill”, the total payment pursuant to the Tonghua Agreement will be recorded as an intangible asset once the Company obtains the SFDA New Drug Approval Certificate and will be amortized over the term of the new drug protection period.

Based on a written mutual understanding between the Company and Tonghua, any payments the Company made to Tonghua under the Tonghua Agreement will be refunded if SFDA approval is not abtained for Nafarelin. Such mutual understanding, although the Company believes to be binding, was not explicitly stipulated in the Tonghua Agreement or otherwise memorialized. As such, the first two installment under the Tonghua Agreement was accounted as a deposit and the remaining last installment payment will be also accounted as deposits until the New Drug Approval Certificate is obtained, at which point the total payment will be recorded as intangible asset and amortized over the term of the new drug protection period.

The Tonghua Agreement also provides that the Company and Tonghua will compensate one another for all losses incurred by the other party if the purchase is not concluded due to reasons attributable to the offending party.

LAND USE RIGHT

The executive offices and manufacturing facilities of the Company’s subsidiary Tianmu Pharmaceuticals are located in the Limin Pharmaceutical Technology Park in the City of Harbin, which is the capital of Heilongjiang Province in The People’s Republic of China.  In 2008, Tianmu Pharmaceuticals paid RMB 2.7 million (approximate to $400,000) to local government to obtain a land use right of 50,000 square meters for 50 years for manufacturing purposes. The Company amortizes this land use right on a straight-line basis over 50 years.

On December 20, 2010, the Company entered into a contract with a non-affiliated individual to acquire rights to use a parcel of land and fixtures thereon for twenty years (from December 20, 2010 to December 30, 2030) for RMB20 million (approximately $3 million). RMB12 million (equivalent to $1,817,541) was paid upon execution of the contract in December 2010. The balance was required to be paid within 20 days after the conveyance of a list of land and fixtures. Due to the nature of the subject parcel of land, there is no PRC government approval or recording required for the transfer of land use right. The Company paid the outstanding balance under the contract on February 21, 2011 and the transfer was concluded in March 2011. As such, the total contract price was recorded as long-term assets and is amortized over the twenty years use right period.

In March 2011, the Company entered into a supplemental contract with the same third-party to acquire a nearby fish pond for twenty years with total contract price of RMB 5.5 million (approximate to $0.85 million). The Company will use this fish pond to provide water supply to the planted traditional Chinese medicine. Total amount of this contract was amortized on a straight-line basis over twenty years.

As of September 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011, land use rights consist of the following: 

   
September 30,2011

VULNERABILITY DUE TO OPERATIONS IN PRC

The Company’s operations may be adversely affected by significant political, economic and social uncertainties in the PRC. Although the PRC government has been pursuing economic reform policies for more than thirty years, no assurance can be given that the PRC government will continue to pursue such policies or that such policies may not be significantly altered, especially in the event of a change in leadership, social or political disruption or unforeseen circumstances affecting the PRC’s political, economic and social conditions. There is also no guarantee that the PRC government’s pursuit of economic reforms will be consistent or effective.

Substantially all of the Company’s businesses are transacted in RMB, which is not freely convertible. The Peoples Bank of China or other banks are authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the Peoples Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the Peoples Bank of China or other institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices, shipping documents and signed contracts.

Since the Company has its primary operations in the PRC, the majority of its revenues will be settled in RMB, not U.S. Dollars. Due to certain restrictions on currency exchanges that exist in the PRC, the Company’s ability to use revenue generated in RMB to pay any dividend payments to its shareholders outside of China may be limited.

The Company’s business depends on maintaining licenses of its current products from SFDA. Obtaining licenses for additional products can be expensive and is usually time consuming. Failure to obtain the required licenses can cause the Company’s business plan to be delayed. If the delays prevent the Company from generating positive cash flows or introducing a significant number of products, there will be a material adverse effect on the Company.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions of Operations.
 
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations relates to the operations and financial condition reported in the financial statements of Tongli Pharmaceuticals (USA) Inc. for the three and six months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, and should be read in conjunction with such financial statements and related notes included in this report. Those statements in the following discussion that are not historical in nature should be considered to be forward looking statements that are inherently uncertain. Actual results and the timing of the events may differ materially from those contained in these forward looking statements due to a number of factors, including those discussed in the “Cautionary Note on Forward Looking Statements” set forth above.

Company Overview

Tongli Pharmaceuticals (USA), Inc. (the “Company”), owns all of the outstanding capital stock of American Tony Pharmaceutical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“American Tony”).

American Tony is a holding company.  In February 2007, American Tony acquired, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Heilongjiang Tongli Technology Co., Ltd., a PRC company (“Tongli Technology”), all of the registered capital of Harbin Tianmu Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. (“Tianmu Pharmaceuticals”), a corporation organized under the laws of the PRC on November 26, 1999.  Tianmu Pharmaceuticals is our principal operating subsidiary and is engaged in developing, manufacturing and marketing pharmaceutical and health care products that incorporate elements of Chinese Traditional Medicine with elements of western medicine.  Our research and development activities have been carried out at relatively low cost because they have been carried out by our in house research and development team and, in the past, in concert with a number of research institutes and universities, including the Jilin Research Institute of Chinese Traditional Medicine, the Sichuan Research Institute of Chinese Medicine, the Heilongjiang Institute of Chinese Traditional Medicine, the Chemistry Department of Tsinghua University, and the R&D Center of Harbin Medical University.

In August 2011,we formed HarbingLvnong Plant Ltd. (“Lvnong”) to plant and sell herbs in China. Lvnong is 100% owned by Tongli Technology.

In 2005, Tianmu Pharmaceuticals obtained the GMP certificate (Good Manufacturing Practices for Pharmaceutical Products), and Drug Register License and Drug Production Certificate from the SFDA for its 10 products. The Company’s main products include cholesterol reduction pill, mouthwash, anti-inflammatory tablet and calcium supplement. These products are sold through distributors or directly to customers; no service is required of the Company after sales are made.  The Company’s primary customers are drug stores and hospitals located in China.
 
Development and Strategy

For the six months ended September 30, 2011, we continued the execution of our product channel expansion strategy that resulted in increased market penetration of our products and expanded revenue growth.

Panax and Radix Polygoni Capsule

Revenue growth for the year was aided in October, 2010, when we began to manufacture and sell our new product Panax and Radix Polygoni Capsule. This new product has helped us to generate about 45.52% of our total sales for six months ended September 30, 2011. We believe that this new product have great market potential and will continue to generate sustainable income for our company in the foreseeable future.

Nafarelin

On March 21, 2010, we entered a New Drug Assignment Agreement with a third party TonghuaYisheng Pharmaceuticals Company Limited (“Tonghua”) to purchase a new drug candidate, called Nafarelin, which we believe has great market potential. Total consideration for this patent transaction amounted to RMB 33,000,000 (approximate to USD 4.85 million) payable in three installments. We paid the first installment of RMB 11,000,000 (equivalent to USD 1.6 million) to Tonghua in March 2010 upon execution of the patent purchase agreement. The second installment of RMB 11,000,000 has been paid to Tonghua during the fourth quarter of 2011. As of September 30, 2011, we have paid total of RMB 22,000,000 to Tonghua on this new drug. The third installment payment is expected to be paid to Tonghua upon completion of the clinic test and the application for Certificate of the new drug is filed with relevant government authority, which is expected to occur in calendar year 2012.

Our ability to conclude this purchase and ultimately commercialize this product requires additional assistance from the seller and obtaining government approvals, including the approvals from the SFDA. Nafarelin is a proposed treatment for endometriosis and prostate cancer. At a minimum, completion of the third phase clinical trail is a pre-condition to receipt of the New Drug Approval Certificate from the SFDA. The SFDA new drug approval procedure is separate and distinct from the patent prosecution procedure. To date, neither Tonghua nor we have applied or intend to apply for patent protection for Nafarelin or the formula or process related to Nafarelin. Once Tonghua is granted the New Drug Approval Certificate for Nafarelin, according to pharmaceutical laws of PRC, we, as the assignee of the New Drug Approved Certificate, shall receive 4 years of exclusive protection. As described below, we regard such protection period as the appropriate amortization period. The patent protection is irrelevant for purposes of amortization in determining the life of the drug as we will not apply for patent protection for Nafarelin.

We shall not be responsible for conducting or paying for any clinical trial and/or research and development in connection with the new drug application for Nafarelin. Pursuant to the Tonghua Agreement, Tonghua shall continue the research, development and clinical trial work for Nafarelin until the SFDA grants the New Drug Approval Certificate and the product is ready to be marketed. Tonghua is listed as the applicant for the SFDA new drug approval process for this product. Once SFDA approval is obtained, we will be able to consummate the assignment and enjoy the protection afforded by the New Drug Approval Certificate. In addition, our ability to commercialize this new product also requires assistance and cooperation from Tonghua, which Tonghua is obligated to provide to us under the Tonghua Agreement.

            Under PRC law, the SFDA’s New Drug Approval Certificate grants certain exclusive protections to approved new drugs, meaning that the subject formula may not be manufactured by other parties in China. The exclusive protection periods for the new drugs vary from 4 to 12 years depending on the category of the new drug. Because we shall be the beneficiary of the exclusive protection during the applicable period (the so-called “new drug approval period”), upon consummation of the transaction contemplated by the Tonghua Agreement, we will regard the protection period as the appropriate amortization period. Based on ASC 805-50-30 “Initial Measurement on Acquisition of Assets Rather Than a Business” and ASC350-30 “General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill”, the total payment pursuant to the Tonghua Agreement will be recorded as an intangible asset once we obtain the SFDA New Drug Approval Certificate and will be amortized over the term of the new drug protection period.
 
Based on a written mutual understanding between us and Tonghua, any payments we made to Tonghua under the Tonghua Agreement will be refunded if SFDA approval is not abtained for Nafarelin. Such mutual understanding, although we believed to be binding, was not explicitly stipulated in the Tonghua Agreement or otherwise memorialized. As such, the first installment under the TonghuaAgreement was accounted as a deposit and the remaining two installment payments will be also accounted as deposits until the New Drug Approval Certificate is obtained, at which point the total payment will be recorded as intangible asset and amortized over the term of the new drug protection period.

New Land Parcel

On December 20, 2010, we entered into a contract with third party to acquire the right to use a parcel of land for twenty years (from December 20, 2010 to December 30, 2030) with a total contract price of RMB 20 million (approximate to $3 million).  We are using this parcel of land to plant the traditional Chinese medicine. We paid the contract price in two installments. The first installment of RMB 12 million (equivalent to $1,817,541) was paid in December 2010 and the second installment payment of RMB 8 million (equivalent to $1,211,694) was paid to the third party upon closing of the transaction on February 21, 2011. In addition, In March 2011, we entered into a supplemental contract with the same third-party to acquire the right to use a nearby fish pond for twenty years with total contract price of RMB 5.5 million (approximate to $0.85 million). We will use this fish pond to provide water supply to the planted traditional Chinese medicine.

Management plans to continue to emphasize on expanding and enhancing marketing and sales in the fiscal year 2012 and beyond.  Part of this strategy involves increasing and improving marketing and sales activities to enhance the market position of our key products and to increase the sales of other products by expanding our sales force, solidifying our distribution network and expanding market segment coverage, and increasing marketing and promotional activities. Management also plans to selectively pursue strategic acquisition opportunities to further consolidate our resources and expand our market coverage. We believe that such initiatives will provide effective means to broaden our product lines, expand our market coverage and complement our research and development capabilities. As of the date of this report, we are not engaged in any material discussions regarding any potential acquisition.

Management believes that our emphasis on further commercializing and broadening our product lines, enhanced sales and marketing efforts shall continue to yield increases in revenue in fiscal 2012 and beyond.
 
Discussion of Operating Results

Operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010

Revenues, cost of sales and gross profit

Revenues increased 79.6% to approximately $3.89million for the three monthsended September 30, 2011 from approximately $2.17 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010.  The $1.72million increase was primarily attributable to new product offerings.We generated $1.4 million sales from thenew product Panax and Radix Polygoni Capsule.  For the three months ended September 30, 2011, about 36.09% of our revenue was generated by our recently manufactured new products Panax and Radix Polygoni Capsule, which broadened our product offerings and helped to increase our sales. In addition, 21.39%, 18.32% and 18.97% of our sales were generated from sales of our products Antihyperlipidemics, Calcium Gluconate Oral Liquid and Anti-bacterial Mouthwash, respectively.The increase in our sales revenue was also affected by the foreign currency exchange rate fluctuation during the year. Our reporting currency is US dollar but our functional currency is Chinese RMB. The average translation rates applied to the income statements accounts fluctuated from USD$1: RMB 6.79651 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 to USD$1: RMB 6.4168 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, representing a 5% decrease. As a result, approximately $136,000 increase in our sales revenue was resulted from the foreign currency translation rate fluctuation.

The Company had distribution contracts with various distributors during the three months ended September 30, 2011and 2010 to sell its products in China.  The Company manufactures its products and ships the products to distributors based on the sales order from distributors each month.  Revenue is recognized at the time of the shipment.  No return is allowed, unless there is a quality problem.  During the three months ended September 30,2011 and 2010, there were no returns from distributors or customers.  Distributors normally make payments upon receiving the products; however, in some cases, the Company may extend credit to certain creditable distributors for certain period until the next shipment.

The Company does not hold additional inventories to satisfy the distributor agreements, because the production is based on the monthly orders from the distributors. The $1,187,986 increase in inventory during the three months ended September 30,2011, was mainly because the Company believes that the price of raw material will increase in the near future, the management decided to buy more raw material for future use. Also the Company received more orders from the distributors and the increase in inventory was in line with the increase in sales.

Management expects that our emphasis on broadening our product pipeline coupled with our continued sales channel expansions, along with our enhanced sales and marketing efforts will continue to yield increases in revenue for fiscal year 2012 and beyond.

             Cost of sales was approximately $2.09 million for the three months ended September 30,2011 compared to $1.18 million for the three months ended September 30,2010. The $0.91million increase in cost of sales was mainly attributable to the increased manufacturing costs of our major products associated with increased sales. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenue decreased from 54.69% to 53.87% as compared to the prior comparative period.

Gross profit was approximately $1.79 million for the three months ended September 30,2011 compared to $0.98 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, an increase of $0.81million or 82.88% due to increased sales of our new product Panax and Radix Polygoni Capsule. The gross profit as a percent of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2011 increased to 46.13% compared to 45.31% in the prior comparative period mainly due to increased sales of our major products, especially due to increased sales of our new product Panax and Radix Polygoni Capsule which has a higher gross profit margin than our other product categories. As discussed above, about 36.09% of our total sales were generated from sales of our new product Panax and Radix Polygoni Capsule. The gross profit margin for our other major products range from 44% to 47%, but the gross margin for Panax and Radix Polygoni Capsule reached to 55%. Consequently, the percentage of our total cost of revenue to our total revenue decreased from 56% for the three months ended September 30,2010 to 52% for the three months ended September 30,2011. As a result, our gross profit margin increased slightly for the period indicated. We expect our gross profit margin will remain in its current level with slight growth in the future.

Operating expenses

Total operating expenses increased by approximately $643,119 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 from $400,503 for the three months ended September 30, 2010 to $1,043,622 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, representing a 161% increase. The increase in our total operating expense for the three months ended September 30, 2011 as compared to the prior comparative period was primarily related to our general and administrative expenses such as newly issued shares expense, salary expenses and consulting expenses. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we hired additional experienced personnel in order to support our business management, which led to increased salary expenses. In order to complete our uplisting goal in the U.S. capital markets, we paid more consulting and professional fees to various service providers, as a result, consulting and professional fees increased as well.  No assurances can be given that we will be able to uplist to a senior market in the U.S.

Interest expense

Interest expense was $14,220 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to $14,542 for the three months ended September 30,2010. Interest expense for the period was only related to the loans from related parties

Income taxes

             All of our net income for the three months ended September 30,2011 was from Tianmu Pharmaceuticals, which conducts substantially of our operation in the PRC. Our Chinese subsidiaries are governed by the Income Tax Law of the PRC concerning the private-run enterprises, which are generally subject to tax at a new statutory rate of 25% on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriate tax adjustments.

Income tax expense of $399,789 for three months ended September 30,2011, an increase of $179,575 or 81.55% from September 30, 2010, was attributed to the increased taxable income primarily derived from Tianmu Pharmaceutical.

Net income

As a result of the above factors, we reported net income of $337,363 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, an decrease of $8,911, or 2.57%, as compared to the net income of $346,274 for the three months ended September 30, 2010.

For the three months ended September 30, 2011, the decrease in our net income was primarily due to our increased general and administrative expenses such as newly issued shares expense.

Operating results for the six months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010

Revenues, cost of sales and gross profit

Revenues increased 75.76% to approximately $9.46million for the six monthsended September 30, 2011 from approximately $4 million for the six months ended September 30, 2010.  The $4 million increase was primarily attributable to new product offerings.  We generated $4.3 million sales from thenew product Panax and Radix Polygoni Capsule. Sales of our major product, Antihyperlipidemics, increased $0.55 million.  For the six months ended September 30, 2011, about 45.52% of our revenue was generated by our recently manufactured new products Panax and Radix Polygoni Capsule, which broadened our product offerings and helped to increase our sales. In addition, 21.12%, 13.96% and 14.82% of our sales were generated from sales of our products Antihyperlipidemics, Calcium Gluconate Oral Liquid and Anti-bacterial Mouthwash, respectively.The increase in our sales revenue was also affected by the foreign currency exchange rate fluctuation during the year. Our reporting currency is US dollar but our functional currency is Chinese RMB. The average translation rates applied to the income statements accounts fluctuated from USD$1: RMB 6.79651 for the six months ended September 30, 2010 to USD$1: RMB 6.45698 for the six months ended September 30, 2011, representing a 5% decrease. As a result, approximately $260,000 increase in our sales revenue was resulted from the foreign currency translation rate fluctuation.

For the six months ended September 30, 2011, the increase in our net income was primarily due to our increased revenue and improved gross margin.

Other comprehensive income

We operate primarily in the PRC and the functional currency of our operating subsidiary is the Chinese Renminbi (”RMB”).  The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions.  No representation is intended to imply that the Renminbi amounts could have been, or could be, converted, realized or settled into USD at the rate on September 30, 2011 or at any other rate.

The value of RMB against U.S. dollar may fluctuate and is affected by changes in political and economic conditions. Our revenues, costs and financial assets are mostly dominated in RMB while our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Accordingly, this may result in gains or losses from currency translation on our financial statements.

Translation adjustments resulting from this process amounted to a gain of $478,501 and$243,972 as of September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  The balance sheet amounts with the exception of equity at September 30, 2011 were translated at 6.38428 RMB to 1.00 USD as compared to 6.69116RMB to 1.00 USD at September 30, 2010. The equity accounts were stated at their historical rate. The average translation rates applied to the income statements accounts for the years ended September 30, 2011 and 2010 were 6.45698 RMB and 6.79651 RMB, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. We have historically financed our operation and capital expenditures through cash from operations as well as loans from the members of our management group and an entity owned by our Chairman. As of the date of this report, we do not have any outstanding bank loans, though we believe we have access to short-term bank loans with local banks in China.

We obtained an unsecured line of credit in the amount of RMB 20 million (approximately $3 million) from Harbin Tianmu Real Estate Development Co., Ltd., an entity owned by our Chairman, Mr. Mingli Yao, in 2008.  The loan had a term of five-year and is due on September 30, 2013.  The loan bears an interest rate of 7% per annum.  The outstanding amount including the interests as of September 30, 2011 was $314,285.

The loan bears an interest rate of 7% per annum.

We obtained an unsecured interest free line of credit in the amount of $100,000 from our Chairman, Mr. Mingli Yao, in May 2010.  The loan has a term of two years and is due on May 4, 2012. The total balance of indebtedness we owe to Mr. Mingli Yao was $534,023 as of September 30, 2011.

We obtained an unsecured interest free loan in the amount of $27,727 from US Hua Sky International Investment LLC, an entity owned by our Chairman, Mr. Mingli Yao, in February 2011.  The loan had a term of five years and is due February 16, 2016.  The outstanding amount as of September 30, 2011 was $27,727.

We obtained an unsecured loan in the amount of RMB 1,000,000 (approximately $149,000) from our shareholder and director Ms. Yuan Yao (our Chairman’s daughter) in December 2010.  The loan had a term of two years and is due on December 29, 2012. The loan bears an interest rate of 7% per annum. The Company has paid RMB 1 million back to Ms. Yao Yuan on June 28, 2011. The outstanding amount including the interests as of September 30, 2011 was $25,036.

We plan to fund operations and capital expenditures including without limitation the payments to Tonghua under the New Drug Assignment Agreement with cash from operations, as well as loans from major shareholders and management members and their affiliates.  We might also pursue sources additional financing in the form of debt, equity or convertible security offerings. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain such additional financing at acceptable terms to us, or at all.

Total current assets increased to approximately $2.36 million as of September 30, 2011 as compared to $3.98 million at March 31, 2011.  The primary changes in our current assets during this period were from changes in cash, accounts receivable, inventory and contract deposit. The decrease in cash from $592,671 at March 31, 2011 to $111,362 at September 30, 2011 was because we purchased more raw materials. The increase of accounts receivables from $2,060,773 at March 31, 2011 to $4,003,000 at September 30, 2011 was due to increased credit sales.

Our current liabilities as of September 30, 2011 was approximately $1.1million as compared to $1.79 million at March 31, 2011.The primary changes in our current liabilities during this period were from changes in taxes payables.

The growth of our company will require additional debt and/or equity financing.  Currently we have budgeted $3.5 million for capital improvements. We intend to pursue additional debt financing which could be secured by our property and equipment and approach international equity markets for additional debt and/or equity financing.  To date we have no commitment from any source for the funds we require.

As of the date of this report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable.

ITEM 4T.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ( the “Exchange Act”)  is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

As of September 30, 2011, the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not operating effectively as of September 30, 2011. Our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of certain “material weaknesses” described in the “Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting” section in Item 9A of our annual report for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011. As of September 30, 2011, we had not completed the remediation of these material weaknesses.
 
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls.  

Readers are cautioned that our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will necessarily prevent all fraud and material error.  An internal control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any control design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the second quarter of 2011 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting, except as disclosed above
