China Ginseng Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”, together with its subsidiaries, herein referred to as “we” “us” and “our”) was incorporated on June 24, 2004 in the State of Nevada. Since our inception in 2004, we have been engaged in the business of farming, processing, distribution and marketing of fresh ginseng. Starting August 2010, we have gradually shifted our business focus from farming and selling ginseng to producing and selling ginseng juice and wine with our crops as raw materials, although we still maintain our farming and selling ginseng business. Through leases, we control 3,705 acres of land approved by the Chinese government for ginseng planting and approximately 750 acres of grape vineyards which are harvested annually. However, recent harvests of grapes showed poor quality for wine production which indicates that the vineyards are no longer suitable for planting grapes for wine production. Therefore, we have decided not to renew our lease for the vineyards with the Chinese government upon expiration on December 31, 2013 and, going forward we intend to purchase grapes from the open market in order to produce grape juice and wine.
 
OUR ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE
 
Below is a chart of our organizational structure as of June 30, 2013:
 

Note: All the four wholly foreign owned enterprises except Tonghua Linyuan have duly obtained the approval from the relevant government. Pursuant to PRC laws, a wholly foreign owned enterprise needs to apply for and obtain an approval certificate from the competent approval government authorities (the Ministry of Commerce of PRC or its local branch) and then a business license from the competent registration authorities (the Administration for industry and commerce of the PRC or its local branches) before it legally starts its business operation. Each of the four foreign owned enterprises has not only obtained the approval certificate from the competent local approval government authorities but also the business license for the competent local registration authorities.

On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the Ministry of Commerce of the People’s Republic of China, the China Securities Regulatory Commission, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council, the State Administration of Taxation, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, and the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, jointly amended and released the Merger & Acquisition Rules, which became effective on September 8, 2006 (the “2006 M&A rules”). This regulation, among other things, includes provisions that purport to require that an offshore special purpose vehicle formed for purposes of overseas listing of equity interest in PRC companies and controlled directly or indirectly by PRC companies or individuals obtain the approval of the China Securities Regulatory Commission prior to the listing and trading of such special purpose vehicle’s securities on an overseas stock exchange. However, the 2006 M&A rules do not apply to any foreign owned enterprise.  Our PRC wholly owned subsidiaries, Jilin Ganzhi, Yanbian Huaxing and Jilin Huamei, became wholly foreign owned enterprises before September 8, 2006.  Therefore, the 2006 M&A rules are not applicable to Jilin Ganzhi, Yanbian Huaxing or Jilin Huamei.  Tonghua Linyuan became a wholly foreign owned enterprise after September 8, 2006.  According to the 2006 M&A rules, where a special purpose company is to be listed overseas for transaction, it shall be subject to the approval of the securities regulatory organization under the State Council of the PRC.   Under the said rules, the “special purpose company” refers to an overseas company directly or indirectly controlled by a domestic company or Chinese person to realize the interests of a domestic company actually owned by the aforesaid domestic company or Chinese person by means of overseas listing.  The current shareholders of Tonghua Linyuan are not the original shareholders of Tonghua Linyuan before Tonghua Linyuan became a wholly foreign owned enterprise on January 15, 2008.  Thus the Company is not of the opinion that China Ginseng Holdings, Inc. is a “special purpose company” as defined in the 2006 M&A rules.  As a result, we believe that our structure is not subject to the 2006 M&A rules.

Yanbian Huaxing Ginseng Industry Co. Limited (“Yanbian Huaxing”) – Ginseng farming and sales

 
·
On September 8, 2003, we and Jilin Dunhua Huaxing Ginseng Industry Co, Ltd. (“Dunhua Huaxing”, a PRC company) jointly and legally established Yanbian Huaxing as a joint venture company, in which we held 25% equity interest and Dunhua Huaxing held 75% equity interest. We received a certificate of approval issued by the competent local approval authority on September 8, 2003 and a business license issued by the competent local registration authority on September 16, 2003. On November 24, 2004, we and Dunhua Huaxing adjusted the registered capital of Yanbian Huaxing and our respective shareholding percentage in Yanbian Huaxing, and, as a result, we then held 55% equity interest in Yanbian Huaxing. Subsequently in August 2005, we acquired the remaining 45% equity interest from Dunhua Huaxing at a purchase of $164,000, pursuant to which we now hold 100% equity interest in Yanbian Huaxing and changed Yanbian Huaxing from a joint venture into a wholly foreign owned enterprise (“WFOE”). The purchase prices were determined based upon the registered capital of Yanbian Huaxing of $364,000. In October 2005, we increased the registered capital of Yanbian Huaxing by putting in an additional $250,000 in order to meet the requirement for foreign owned enterprise requirement for tax purpose. Now the registered capital of Yanbian Huaxing is $614,000. We have applied with the relevant PRC approval and registration authorities for each of the aforesaid changes and have obtained all applicable approvals and registrations for such changes, including a certificate of approval issued by the local approval authority and a renewed business license issued by the local registration authority certifying Yanbian Huaxing as a WFOE lawfully owned by us. Yanbian Huaxing is operated to plant ginseng and our revenue in the past was mainly from the sales of ginseng produced and sold by Yanbian Huaxing. With the shift of our business focus to canned ginseng juice, we have started to reserve the high quality grown ginseng for ginseng beverage production and sold only those not qualified to make ginseng juice. However, due to excessive rain in the year ended June 30, 2011, 90% of our grown ginseng was oxidized and sold to the market. During the year ended June 30, 2013, we were unable to reserve our grown ginseng for ginseng juice production, compared with 20% in the year ended June 30, 2012.

Jilin Ganzhi Ginseng Products Co. Ltd. (“Jilin Ganzhi”) - Producing Canned Ginseng Juice

 
·
On May 31, 2006, we acquired 100% equity interest in Jilin Ganzhi at a price of $95,691.  We received a certificate of approval issued by the competent local approval authority on May 31, 2006 and a business license issued by the competent local registration authority on June 19, 2006.  Subsequently on September 26, 2007 and August 31, 2008 we increased Jilin Ganzhi’s registered capital by $50,000 and $20,000 respectively.  Now the registered capital of Jilin Ganzhi is $100,000. We have applied with the relevant PRC approval and registration authorities for each of the aforesaid capital increases and have obtained all applicable approvals and registrations for such changes, including a renewed certificate of approval issued by the local approval authority and a renewed business license issued by the local registration authority certifying Jilin Ganzhi as a WFOE lawfully owned by us. Jilin Ganzhi is operated to process ginseng and produce canned ginseng juice. Jilin Ganzhi started production of canned ginseng juice in the three months ended December 31, 2010.

Tonghua Linyuan Grape Planting Co. (“Tonghua Linyuan”) – Growing grapes and producing wine through a winery producer

 
·
On January 15, 2008, we acquired 100% equity interest in Tonghua Linyuan from two PRC individual shareholders at a price of $1,000,000.  The price was determined by arm’s-length negotiations based upon the appraised net asset value of Tonghua Linyuan at the time of acquisition which was approximately $1,332,248. We received a certificate of approval issued by the competent local approval authority on January 15, 2008 and a business license issued by the competent local registration authority on April 1, 2008 certifying Tonghua Linyuan as a WFOE lawfully owned by us.  However, the WFOE certificate is conditioned on us injecting the registered capital into Tonghua Linyuan before or on June 15, 2012. Because we failed to satisfy this condition, Tonghua Linyuan lost its status as a WFOE beginning June 15, 2012. Tonghua Linyuan was operated to plant grapes and produce wine.  However, recent harvests from Tonghua Linyuan showed poor quality for wine production which indicates that the vineyard is no longer suitable to grow grapes for grape juice and wine production. Therefore, we decided not to renew our lease with the Chinese government when it expires on December 31, 2013.  In addition, Tonghua Linyuan contracted for the production of wine with a winery producer whereby Tonghua Linyuan provides the producer with grape juice and supplies and producer charges processing fee per bottle. Tonghua Linyuan started wine production through a winery producer in March 2011 and the sales of wine were conducted through Jilin Huamei and Hong Kong Huaxia.
 
When we acquired Tonghua Linyuan, it was in debt as a result of a loan of 2,000,000 RMB (about $316,211) to Ji’An Qingshi Credit Cooperatives (“Ji’An Qingshi”). Therefore, we were responsible for paying back the loan after we acquired Tonghua Linyuan. The principal terms of the loan are as follows:
  
 
1.
Type of Loan: Short Term Agriculture Loan

 
2.
Loan Purpose: Planting

 
3.
Loan Amount: Principal of 2,000,000 RMB (about USD $316,211) with an annual interest of 6.325%

 
4.
Loan Period: From February 4, 2002 to February 4, 2003; Repayment due date was February 4, 2003

 
5.
Security: The loan is secured by assets of Tonghua Linyuan including 14 carbon-steel storage cans; 16 high-speed steel storage cans and 150 tons of grape juice (the “Secured Assets”).

Until now, we have not paid any principal or interest of the loan; however, Ji’An Qingshi verbally agreed in March 2008 not to call the loan, and that no principal or interest payments are required to be made until the Company is generating profits and interest continues to accrue until we repay the loan.

As of June 2013, the planned production of wine and grape juice had not been commenced due to the poor quality of the harvests which were not suitable for the production of wine or grape juice, and therefore the Company decided to abandon the growing and harvesting of grapes.  On June 30, 2013, Tonghua Linyuan entered into a sale agreement with Mr. Wenkai Wang to transfer all assets and debts of Tonghua Linyuan to Mr. Wenkai Wang for $0 (zero) consideration, including the ownership of machinery and equipment, the right to the use of the plant and the debt of $2 million of Tonghua Linyuan, effective immediately. Pursuant to the sale of all assets and debts, Tonghua Linyuan became a shell with no operations. Mr. Wang has been engaged in wine sale business in Tonghua City for many years and does not have any material relationship with the Company, or any of its affiliates, or any director or officer of the Company, or any associate of any such director or officer, other than in respect of the sale of Tonghua Linyuan. We believe that it is the best interest of the Company to dispose the assets and debts of Tonghua Linyuan. Going forward, the Company will purchase grapes in the open market to produce wine and grape juice. 

Jinlin Huamei Beverage Co. Ltd (“Jilin Huamei”) - Marketing our canned ginseng juice and wine

 
·
Jilin Huamei was incorporated by us on October 17, 2005 as a WFOE. We received a certificate of approval issued by the competent local approval authority on October 17, 2005 and a business license issued by the competent local registration authority on October 19, 2005 certifying Jilin Huamei as a WFOE lawfully owned by us. The registered capital of Jilin Huamei is $200,000.  Jilin Huamei operates as a sales department for our canned ginseng juice and wine, which are produced by our other subsidiaries. We plan to recruit one general distributor for our canned ginseng juice and one general distributor for our wine in each big city in China through Jilin Huamei. As of the date of this filing, Jilin Huamei has 5 general distributors for our ginseng beverage and one general distributor for our wine. Jilin Huamei established one sale branch office in Jiangsu Province from the period of June, 2011 to May, 2013. The Company decided to cease the operation of this branch because we did not have many sales from this branch and we did not have enough cash to support its operations.  We commenced sales of ginseng beverage in October 2010 and Jilin Huamei started generating revenue in November 2010.
 
Hong Kong Huaxia International Industrial Co., Ltd (“Hong Kong Huaxia”) – Sale of health products and specialized local goods

 
·
Hong Kong Huaxia was incorporated by us on March 18, 2012 as a wholly-owned subsidiary to sell health and specialized local products. The registered capital of Hong Kong Huaxia is HKD 1,000,000 (approximately $129,032) which has not been funded by the Company, Hong Kong Huaxia began operations in April 2012.
 
BUSINESS OVERVIEW:

Our business in China is currently conducted through the above four wholly owned subsidiaries located in Northeast China. On June 30, 2013, Tonghua Linyuan became a shell company and ceased operation pursuant to a sale of all of its assets and debts.  Below is the operational status of each of these businesses as of the date of this filing:
 
 
·
Yanbian Huaxing: In the past, our revenue was mainly from the sales of ginseng produced and sold by Yanbian Huaxing which consists of Ynabian farm and Mudanjiang farm. In August 2010, we shifted our business focus to canned ginseng juice and wine and started to store fresh ginseng for producing canned ginseng juice. Most of the ginseng produced by Yanbian Huaxing has been and will continued to be used as raw material of canned ginseng juice and only those oxidized ginseng not qualified to be used for canned ginseng juice will be sold directly through Yanbian Huaxing. Therefore, the revenues attributable to the direct sales of ginseng produced by Yanbian Huaxing have already and will continue to decrease as the ginseng is utilized for the ginseng juice. For the year ended June 30, 2012, the sales of our ginseng production decreased by $235,237 compared to the year ended June 30, 2011.  This was a decrease of 21% over the previous year caused by decreased quantity we sold to the market. Nevertheless, because of the increase of the resale price of the ginseng we purchased and the decrease of the sales of ginseng juice due to lack of promoting activities during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012,   the sales of ginseng by Yanbian Huaxing still accounted for the biggest part of our revenue for the year ended June 30, 2012. Yanbian farm’s harvest will be substantially complete by December 31, 2012. We are only planting small amounts of Ginseng because the climate and soil conditions have deteriorated. The other farm, Mudaniang, will harvest no ginseng until about 2018 due to the damages caused by a typhoon strike occurred in August 2012 which will be discussed in more detail in this Form 10-K. However, our decision to shift our business focus mainly to production and sale of ginseng juice remains unchanged. We currently have stored sufficient ginseng to produce approximately one million ginseng juice cans and we plan to continue purchasing ginseng from the market as raw material for ginseng juice production. With our unique production technology of ginseng beverage and our focus on high-end consumers, we anticipate that, in the next five years, around 70% of our revenue will come from sales of ginseng beverage.  Nevertheless, there is no assurance that our sales of ginseng beverage will generate 70% of our revenues in the next five years.

Jilin Ganzhi: Jilin Ganzhi has been processing fresh ginseng and started producing canned ginseng in the quarter ended December 31, 2010 and the revenue is reflected in the financial statements in this Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2012.

 
·
Tonghua Linyuan: Prior to June 30, 2013, Tonghua Linyuan operated our vineyards to grow and crush the grapes and reserve grape juices for wine production. Our grapes grew on 750 acres of land leased from a group of individual farmers, paying approximately $37.50 per acre a year for 15 years. However, recent harvests of grapes from Tonghua Linyuan vineyard showed poor quality which indicates that the vineyard land was no longer suitable for the production of wine or grape juice. Therefore, we decided not to renew the land use rights with the local government when it expired on December 31, 2013. In the future, we will keep the business of producing wine, but we decided not to produce grape juice. We plan to purchase grapes in the open market for the production of wine. Accordingly, we have abandoned the vineyard and recorded a charge to operations of $872,658. In addition, Tonghua Linyuan contracted with a winery whereby Tonghua Linyuan will provide the winery with grape juice and supplies and the winery will produce wine with certain processing charge per bottle. Tonghua Linyuan started wine production through the winery producer in March 2011 and sales in April 2011. For the year ended June 30, 2013, none of our revenue was generated from sales of wine, compared to 5.4% for the fiscal year 2012. On June 30, 2013, Tonghua Linyuan became a shell company and ceased operation pursuant to a sale of all of its assets and debts, including the ownership of machinery and equipment, the right to the use of the plant and the debt of $2 million of Tonghua Linyuan. Following the transaction, the purchase of grapes juice and sale of wine will be conducted through our subsidiary, Jilin Huamei. We estimate that 5% of our revenues will come from sales of wine in the next five years; however, there is no assurance such performance.

 
·
Jilin Huamei: Jilin Huamei operates as a sale department for canned ginseng juice and wine. Our domestic market promotion and penetration of canned ginseng juice and wine is conducted by Jilin Huamei and all of our domestic distribution agreements for sales of our canned ginseng juice and wine are signed through Jilin Huamei. Pursuant to the sale of all assets and debts of Tonghua Linyuan as of June 30, 2013, Jilin Huamei will also conduct the purchase of grapes from the openmarket for the production of our own wine.
 
 
·
Hong Kong Huaxia: Hong Kong Huaxia was registered in Hong Kong as a sale company for health product and specialized local goods in March 2012. It was set up as a part of our adjusted marketing strategy so that we can explore the Asia Market through Hong Kong Huaxia while Jilin Huamei focuses on domestic sales. Hong Kong Huaxia started operation in April 2012 and generated approximately 9% of revenue during the year ended June 30, 2013 through sales of our ginseng juice and wine and resales of cosmetic products under the brand of Aoweisi.  The focus of Hong Kong Huaxia is sales of our ginseng juice and wine in Asia market. It is currently recruiting distributors for Asia market in addition to its online shopping platform for direct sales of our ginseng juice and wine.
 
OUR PRODUCTS:

Previously, through Yanbian Huaxing, we focused on the farming, processing, distribution and marketing of Asian and American Ginseng and related byproducts in the following varieties:

 
·
Fresh Ginseng: For pharmaceutical, health supplement, cosmetic industry and fresh consumption.
 
·
Dry Ginseng: Dried form for pharmaceutical and health supplement consumption.
 
·
Ginseng Seeds: Selling of ginseng seeds.
 
·
Ginseng Seedling: Selling of ginseng seedling.
  
We obtained 20 years land use rights to 3,705 acres of land approved by the local government for ginseng growing on June 12, 2005 and we have developed 3% of the land resources.

Since August 2010, we have gradually shifted our business focus from direct sales of ginseng and ginseng byproducts to production and sale of canned ginseng juice and wine. We have started reserving most of the ginseng produced by Yanbian Huaxing for use in the planned production of canned ginseng juice and grape juice produced by Tonghua Linyuan for use in the production of wine. Meanwhile, as there is higher standard for ginseng used in canned ginseng juice, we are able to sell some of the ginseng produced by Yanbian Huaxing which is not qualified for use in canned ginseng juice to the market through Yanbian Huaxing. Although we have shifted our business focus to production and sale of ginseng juice and wine, we still receive orders for ginseng and its byproducts because of our reputation in the industry for selling high-quality ginseng. We intend to maintain this part of our business even though it is no longer our business focus. In addition, if we receive large orders for ginseng and/or ginseng byproducts, we will directly purchase ginseng and/or ginseng byproducts from the market if we can get a lower price of the products. This part of sale of ginseng is generated on order-to-order basis and conditioned on whether we can get a lower price for such demanded products in the market.

Through Jilin Ganzhi, we are producing two types of canned ginseng juice.

 
·
Ganzhi Asian Ginseng Beverage
 
·
Ganzhi American Ginseng Beverage
 
In 2008, we started storing fresh ginseng as a raw material in a rented refrigerated warehouse. We entered into a 5 year lease agreement with Meat Union Refrigerated Warehouse for the rented refrigerated warehouse in 2008 for the rental of 160 cubic meters with a monthly rental of 57RMB (about USD $ 8.1) per cubic meter. In October 2010, we renewed the lease agreement with a rental of 4500 RMB (about USD $678.86, approximately $4.2 per cubic meter) per month. The principal terms of the lease agreement are as follows:

 
·
Parties: Meat Union Refrigerated Warehouse (“Meat Union”) and Jilin Ganzhi Ginseng Products Co Ltd. (“Jilin Ganzhi”);

 
·
Meat Union leases out three refrigerated warehouses for Jilin Ganzhi to store ginseng. During the refrigerated period, Meat Union is required to keep the temperature at 12 – 15 degrees below zero, if there are any changes of the temperature Meat Union needs to notify Jilin Ganzhi immediately. If Meat Union fails to notify Jilin Ganzhi and consequently caused the molding or rotting of ginseng, Meat Union shall be responsible for all the losses. Jilin Ganzhi shall inspect warehouse temperature periodically.

 
·
The contracts starts from October 15, 2010 and will remain valid until terminated by the parties, monthly rent is 4500 RMB. When Jilin Ganzhi vacates a warehouse, both parties will renegotiate the rent for the refrigerated warehouse.

We purchased a production factory of ginseng beverage for the total consideration of 9,000,000 RMB under a written contract dated March 2, 2010. We paid 500,000 RMB (about USD $75,207) on June 24, 2010; obtained an 8 million RMB (about USD $1,203,312) bank loan from Meihekou City Rural Credit Union to pay the seller on September 10, 2010; and paid 100,000 RMB (about USD $15,041) in December 2010. The remaining balance of 400,000 RMB (about USD $60,167) was to be paid off by end of June 2010 pursuant to the written contract; however, on March 22, 2010, we obtained oral consent from the seller to extend the due date to December 31, 2011.  We were not able to pay off the remaining balance by December 31, 2011 and the seller orally agreed to further extend the due date to the date when we have sufficient cash to pay off the remaining balance.  Nevertheless, if our cash flow do not improve and cannot obtain a further extension from the seller or the seller revokes its oral consent of extension, the seller has the right to repossess the production factory, confiscate the deposit paid to the seller and we will be liable to compensate the seller for an amount equivalent to 6 month’s rental expenses for using the production factory. The principal terms of the written contract are as follows:

 
·

·
Meihekou and Ginseng Group shall go to the PRC auction company Jilin Mingshi Auction Co. Ltd. together to apply for the change of the purchaser’s name from Meihekou to Ginseng Group. The application fee is borne by Ginseng Group.

 
·
All details/content of the location, land area and facilities that to be acquired originally by Meihekou remain unchanged. The amount of the consideration of RMB 9,000,000 (about USD$1,353,726) and the agency commission that was to be originally paid by Meihekou shall remain unchanged and payment shall be made by Ginseng Group to Meihekou.

 
·
Payment method: This agreement became effective upon date of signing, Ginseng Group shall pay Meihekou of RMB 500,000 (about USD $75,207) before March 20, 2010, the remaining balance shall be repaid in full by June 30, 2010.

 
·
Meihekou shall waive the rental expenses incurred by Ginseng Group for using the premise for the period from January 2010 to Feburary 2010.

If the remaining balance was not settled by June 2010, Meihekou has the right to repossess the premise and confiscate the deposit paid to Meihekou. And Ginseng Group is liable to compensate Meihekou for an amount equivalent to 6 month’s rental expenses for using the premise.

Ginseng Group has not paid off the remaining balance of 400,000 RMB (about USD $60,167) until now; however, Meihekou has orally agreed to extend the due date of the payment to the date that we have sufficient cash flow to pay off the remaining balance, with all other terms and conditions remain the same.

On August 30, 2012, we paid off the 8 million RMB bank loan which we obtained from Meihekou City Rural Credit Union on November 8, 2010 by a new loan of 8 million RMB from the same lender.  The principal terms of the new 8 million RMB bank loan agreement are as follows:

 
·
Parties: Jilin Ganzhi Ginseng Products Co., Ltd (“Jilin Ganzhi”) and Meihekou City Rural Credit Union (“Meihekou Credit Union”);

 
·
Meihekou Credit Union granted a loan of 8 million RMB (about USD $ 1,264,842 to Jilin Ganzhi to be used in calling in and refunding and the term of the loan is 24 months from August 30, 2012 to August 29, 2014.

 
·
The loan carries a benchmark interest rate which is the rate announced by the People’s Bank of China as an interest rate of same type and class of loans at the date of the loan and changes with the adjustment of national bank rate.  Meihekou Credit Union calculates the interest on a monthly basis applying this annual floating rate which is payable on the 21st day of each month. The monthly interest rate of August 2012 was 10.513 and we paid interest of 94,126.63 RMB (about USD $ 14,837.81) on August 21, 2012. And we have not paid interest since September 20, 2012 and will assume the payment of interest when we have enough cash.

In addition to canned ginseng juice, we also shifted our business to focus on wine production. Prior to the sale of the assets of Tonghua Linyuan, we grew and crushed the grapes from our vineyards and had the juice reserved. We contracted with Jinyuanshan Winery for the final production and bottling of the wine. According to the contract, we shall provide Jinyuanshan Winery with grape juice, bottling supplies and packaging supplies; pay Jinyuanshan Winery RMB 1 (about USD $0.15) per bottle for processing red wine and RMB 1.5 (about USD $0.22) per bottle for processing ice wine. We started wine production through Jinyuanshan Winery in March 2011 and sales in April 2011. Following the sale of the assets of Tonghua Linyuan, we plan to buy grapes for our wine production from the open market.  All of our wines are sold through Jinlin Huamei and Hong Kong Huaxia.  For fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, we generated revenues of $2,618 from wine sales.
 
We generated $3,563,165 and $4,315,809 in revenues for our fiscal years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. For the year ended June 30, 2013, our sales and principal customers were as follows:

Our ginseng sales revenue includes revenue from our ginseng production and revenue from resale of ginseng purchased from outside farmers. Our ginseng production is constituted of our own farmed ginseng production and ginseng purchased from the farmers who leased land from us. We sell ginseng directly to the market without distributors and to customers who purchase ginseng from us on an order-to-order basis. Though purchases from a few customers aggregately accounted for more than 10% of our sales of ginseng, we do not have any written or oral agreement with those customers. We consider a purchase to be completed once cash is paid by a customer. For large orders, as is custom in the ginseng business, when ginseng is shipped to a customer, the customer pays approximately 20%-30% of the invoice and is entitled to an inspection process which could take up to 60 days. Upon completion of the inspection and approval process, the customer notifies us and sends us the balance of the invoice price, and a sale is recorded.
 
However, as we have recently begun to shift the focus of our business from sale of ginseng to canned ginseng juice and wine,  there is no assurance that there will be sufficient demand for our beverages and wine to allow us to operate profitably in the short term until our new products are more widely recognized and sold. Accordingly, past revenues and other financial results will not provide a meaningful basis for future performance given the material change in our business.

Sales of Ginseng

We sell ginseng directly to the market without distributors and to customers who purchase ginseng from us on an order-to-order basis. Although purchases from a few customers aggregately accounted for more than 10% of our sales of ginseng, we do not have any written or oral agreements with those customers. We consider a purchase is completed once cash is paid by a customer. For large orders, as is custom in ginseng business, when ginseng is shipped to a customer, the customer pays approximately 20%-30% of the invoice and is entitled to an inspection process which could take up to 60 days. Upon completion of the inspection and approval process, the customer pays the balance of the invoice and a sale is recorded.

If ginseng produced by us or the farmers who leased land from us are not qualified to produce canned ginseng juice, we will sell it to the market. In addition, as we have been engaged in the business of farming, processing and selling ginseng for more than eight years, we are very familiar with the local ginseng planting and have good connection with ginseng farmers. Therefore, sometimes we are able to purchase ginseng with good quality from the outside farmers at a price lower than market price and then directly sell those ginseng we purchased to the market. Starting in 2008, we began reserving fresh ginseng as raw material to produce canned ginseng juice. As of the date of this filing, we are no longer selling fresh ginseng or dry ginseng directly to the market except such portions of our product that are not qualified for use in our canned ginseng juice and the ginseng we purchased from outside farmers which is oxidized ginseng. Ginseng's growing season is from April to September. Normally we sow the seed in April and harvest in September. Excessive rain in June to August will normally cause oxidation on the ginseng because that is the grow season for ginseng. Our average yearly rain volume in the past ten years is approximately 500 millimeter and we usually have approximately 30% of ginseng oxidized each year. However, because we intend to produce high quality canned ginseng juice, we apply very strict and much higher standards when we select ginseng as raw materials for ginseng juice production. Therefore, only portion of non-oxidized with high quality grown ginseng will be reserved for ginseng juice production. For the year ended June 30, 2013, we did not reserve any of our grown ginseng for ginseng juice production, compared with 20% for the fiscal year 2012. Once ginseng is oxidized, it is no longer qualified as raw material for ginseng beverage; however, we can still sell it to the market at a lower price compared to the price of non-oxidized ginseng.
 
After we shifted our business focus from direct sale of ginseng to ginseng beverage and wine, we started to store high quality fresh ginseng for the production of canned ginseng beverage. We are no longer selling fresh ginseng produced by Yanbian Huaxing except low quality ginseng or oxidized ginseng. The oxidized ginseng is not qualified for production of ginseng beverage and we usually have around 30% of ginseng oxidized each year. Therefore, the revenues attributable to the direct sales of ginseng produced by Yanbian Huaxing have already, and will continue to decrease as the ginseng is utilized for the ginseng juice. We sold approximately 72,035 kg ginseng in the year ended June 30, 2013, 55% of which is the low quality or oxidized ginseng and 45% of which is the ginseng we purchased from outside farmers. We sold approximately 114,084.88 kg ginseng in the year ended June 30, 2012, 45% of which is the low quality or oxidized ginseng and 55% of which is the ginseng we purchased from outside farmers.  Our sales of ginseng decreased from $3,593,581for the year ended June 30, 2012 to $2,297,228 for the year ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of 17%. Although in the long run we expect a decrease of revenue from direct sales of ginseng,  a significant increase of revenue from sales of canned ginseng juice will outweigh the decrease of sales of ginseng. We shifted our business focus mainly to production and sale of ginseng beverage because we believe that there is a significant opportunity for functional drinks in China and there are currently no leading brands in the China market, while we have unique production technology of ginseng beverage  and we focus on high-end consumers. In addition, our sales of wine products decreased significantly during the year ended June 30, 2013 due to low market demand. We estimate to have 70% of our revenue from sales of canned ginseng juice, 15-20% of our revenue from sales of ginseng and 5% of our revenue from sales of our wine in next five years. However, there is no assurance that the sales of ginseng beverage and wine will generate 70% and 5% of our revenues respectively in the next five years.
 
Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

Ginseng can only be cultivated under severely limited conditions demanding an almost perfect combination of terrain, altitude, and temperature. The growth cycle requires 5-6 years, although, senior maturity can be 8 years,  and once harvested, the land can not be used again for ginseng planting for at least 25-30 years. Because the suitable lands for ginseng farming are very limited, the key to success in this industry is to control suitable land, as well as to continually develop techniques to increase production per acre.
 
We have been granted land use rights to 1,500 hectares (about 3705 acres) of land resources for ginseng planting by the local government including Yanbian farm and Mudanjiang farm. Currently, we have planted approximately 287,984 square meters of land. Yanbian farm was substantially completely harvested by December 31, 2012. We only planted small amounts of Ginseng at Yanbian farm during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 because the climate and soil conditions have deteriorated. And the other farm Mudaniang will harvest no ginseng until about 2018 due to the damages caused by a typhoon strike which occurred in August 2012 which will be discussed in more details herein below in this Form 10-K. We plan to plant, over the next 5 years, 100,000 square meters, representing approximately 20,000 square meters per year.  In the succeeding five years, we plan to harvest approximately 60,945 square meters of Ginseng. The harvest plan by year is as follows: 2014-58,281 and 2017-2,664.

With regard to the land resources we developed, we have hired our own employees to plant ginseng on part of the lands. Simultaneously, we have executed agreements with a number of local farmers to grow, cultivate and harvest ginseng utilizing the remaining portion of the land resources. Approximately 45% of the ginseng we need is from the 3% of developed land. The farming contracts commenced in January 2008 and expired as of December 31, 2012. In connection with these agreements, we (1) lease sections of the ginseng land to the farmers at approximately $1.5 (10 RMB) per square meter yearly, (2) provide the seeds and fertilizer to the farmers and clear the land of large debris (these costs are capitalized by the Company and included in the Ginseng Crop inventory, and, (3) pay the farmers a management fee of approximately $0.50 (4.00 RMB) per square meter (the farmers are required to produce 2kg ginseng for each square meter that they manage). After harvest, we pay the farmers the market price, which is the price at which other non-affiliated purchasers purchase similar ginseng from other farmers, for their ginseng. If the harvest is below 2 kg per square meter, the difference will be deducted from the total payment for ginseng purchased. If the harvest produces more than 2 kg per square meter, we pay $3.00 for every extra kg. In fiscal year 2013, we purchased approximately 45% of the ginseng we needed from these local farmers. The Company decided not to renew the contracts when they expired on December 31, 2012 because the Company has harvested all ginseng from planting land we rent to farmer. We will, however,  enter into the contracts again with the local farmers when we have enough capital to plant new ginseng.
 
Inventory
 
All of our high quality ginseng is currently reserved for use by us in the manufacture of ginseng juice. Fresh ginseng can be placed in refrigerated storage for two years and still be used in the production of ginseng beverages.
 
Seasonality

Sales of ginseng products are seasonal, with most customers placing orders in the first and fourth quarter in any year as our ginseng is harvested in autumn, after necessary processing procedures, and available for sale in winter. However, as we no longer sell these products to any significant extent, seasonality is no longer an issue.
 
Canned Ginseng Juice

We are selling the following two products:

 
·
Ganzhi Ginseng Beverage, Approval No. State Food & Drug Administration G20090249
 
·
Ganzhi American Ginseng Beverage, Approval No. State Food & Drug Administration G20090208

To produce canned ginseng juice, we take ginseng juice extracted from fresh ginseng as the main material plus natural extracts like xylitol, citric acid and steviosides as subsidiary ingredients. We have farming technicians periodically inspect farmers to ensure they follow our growing guidelines to control the quality of the fresh ginseng. We use low residue pesticide and biodegradable fertilizer for ginseng planting. And we use xylitol instead of sugar to lower calories. Further, products made with xylitol do not cause a sour taste.

Currently, there are about 10 kinds of ginseng drinks on the market; all of them are imported from Korea. The price range for those products is 4 –30 RMB per can (about USD $0.60-$ 4.51) based on our market research.

The most important component of ginseng is ginsenoside. Through reading our competitor’s labels, we found that nearly all of their ginseng drinks are produced by blending after extracting ginsenosides through chemical methods. The extraction for ginsenosides will cause damage to its nutritional components. Our technology is different from that traditional method. We squeeze out the natural juice from fresh ginseng so as to preserve freshness and nutrition in the final product.

The reason direct squeezing is not commonly used in canned ginseng juice is that it needs fresh ginseng as a raw material and preservation of fresh ginseng is very difficult. Fresh ginseng rots very fast. The harvest time concentrates in September and October, which is a fairly short period. After that, one can only buy dried ginseng from market such as sun-dried ginseng from which we cannot squeeze juice. However, our drink formula enables us to use refrigerated ginseng as a raw material to produce canned ginseng juice and still be able to maintain its freshness and nutrition in our final products. The drink formula for our ginseng beverages is a registered patent approved by the Chinese government, patent number ZL 03111397.6. This patent was issued on January 23, 2008 and expires 20 years after issuance.
  
This is why we store our fresh ginseng in refrigerated warehouse space. We are currently renting a refrigerated warehouse (-20 C degree) to store all fresh ginseng inventory necessary for production of the ginseng beverages. Monthly rent for refrigerated warehouse is RMB 4,500 (about USD $676.86). We commenced production in August 2010 and sales in October 2010 which was reflected in our financial statement for the three months ended December 31, 2010. We initiated our sales of canned ginseng juice in China and we plan to expand our business to overseas markets in 2014 or 2015. Our Ganzhi Ginseng Beverage costs approximately $2.21 per 1600 ml bottle and our American Ginseng Beverage will cost approximately $2.66 per 1600 ml bottle. However, as we are in the initial stage of ginseng beverage business, we cannot assure the demands for our ginseng beverage will be profitable in the short term and there is no guarantee that we will be able to generate revenue with ginseng beverage business.
 
We own the production plant for ginseng juice. The plant is certified by the Chinese government as a Good Manufacturing Process facility, which is required for our production of these products. Good Manufacturing Process standards cover organization and personnel, building and facilities, equipment, materials, hygiene and sanitation, validation, documentation, production management, quality management, production distribution and recall, complaints and adverse reactions report, and self-inspections.

The estimated total one-time costs associated with the production of our ginseng beverage is approximately 50 million RMB (about USD $7,549,791) including 2 million RMB for research and governmental approval, 6 million RMB for GMP adjustment construction, 8 million RMB for equipment, 11 million RMB for facility construction and upgrades, 20 million for working capital and 3 million RMB for other expenses.
 
We plan to fund these costs through a combination of short-term borrowings, bank loans, cash from operations and sales of our equity.
 
Distribution Methods

There are 667 cities in China.  We plan to recruit one general distributor for canned ginseng juice in each city through Jilin Huamei. The general distributor can recruit the second level distributors. In addition to recruiting general distributors, in some major cities, Jilin Huamei will establish sale branch offices to facilitate the local sales. Our direct sale will target at customers of high end retailers such as supermarkets, pharmacies, hotels, gift shops, entertainment centers, tourists attractions, airport and high speed trains, etc.

We have started negotiating distribution and sales agreements with potential general distributors. We are using a form of distribution agreement for general distributors; however, specific terms might differ based on negotiations we have with each distributor. As of the date of this filing, we have signed 5 distributors through Jilin Huamei. The form of the distribution agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.14 to the Form 10-12G/A we filed on November 10, 2010, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

We will obtain the fresh ginseng for beverage production from two sources, our grown ginseng including self-planted ginseng and the ginseng sold to us by farmers in accordance with the contracts we entered into with them, and the ginseng we purchase from the outside farmers.

Ginseng's growing season is from April to September, six months a year. Normally we sow the seed in April and harvest in September and October. Ginseng seeds are obtained after the blossom in Autumn, the seed can be sowed in September or next Spring, it takes 10 days to germinate and 10 days for seeding. And the whole growing cycle for ginseng from seeding to harvest usually takes around 5-6 years to ensure the growth of ginseng and the nutrition it contains in the root. For ginseng, every hectare can harvest 18 to 20 kg ginseng. As of June 30, 2013, we have planted approximately 287,984   square meters of land.

Seasonality

There is no seasonality for sale of ginseng beverages.
 
Wine

We are currently selling three types of wine: Bingqing Ice Wine, Pearl in the Snow (red wine), Linyuan Hong Wine (red wine).

Our grapes grew on 750 acres of land leased from a group of individual farmers, paying approximately $37.50 per acre a year for 15 years. This lease expires on December 31, 2013, upon which we will not further renew it. However, recent harvests from our vineyard showed poor quality indicating the vineyard is long longer suitable for the production of wine. We decided to abandon the growing and harvesting of grapes and will now purchase grapes in the open market to produce wine.

We started production of wine in March 2011 and sales in April 2011. Through Tonghua Linyuan, we have a written production agreement with Tonghua Jinyuanshan Winery (“Jinyuanshan Winery”) to produce Pearl in Snow Wine and Ice Wine for us from May 20, 2012 to May 19, 2017. Pursuant to the sale of all assets and liabilities of Tonghua Linyuan on June 30, 2013, the contract with Jinyuanshan Winery will be fulfilled by our subsidiary, Jilin Huamei. Under the terms of the agreement, we provide Jinyuanshan Winery with grape juice, bottling supplies and packaging supplies, and Jinyuanshan Winery produces and bottles the wine with a charge of approximately $0.16-0.24 per bottle (approximately $0.16 a bottle for processing red wine, and approximately $0.24 per bottle for processing ice wine). Other principal terms of the agreement are as follows:
 
 
1.
Product Names: Pearl in Snow Wine; Ice Wine.

 
2.
Prior to production, Tonghua Linyuan shall provide production guidelines and obtain approval from the city inspection department.

 
3.
Tonghua Linyuan shall notify the supervision department a week in advance for every batch of production.

Product defect allowance: Jinyuanshan Winery is allowed to have 5% wine production defect rate; 0.3% on labeling and packaging; and 0.5% on bottles. If the bottle damage was caused by delivery, Jinyuanshan Winery will not be responsible for the damage.

 
7.
Duration of this Contract: This contract is valid from May 20, 2009 to May 19, 2012. If there is any dispute beyond negotiation, it will be mediated by the local arbitration authority.

 
8.
Tonghua Linyuan subcontracts Jinyuanshan Winery to produce under Jinyuanshan Winery’s National Industrial Production permit. Tonghua Linyuan shall name Jinyuanshan Winery on its labels (after city quality inspection’s approval).

 
9.
If there are any taxes incurred by Jinyuanshan Winery for processing Tonghua Linyuan’s wines, Tonghua Linyuan is liable for paying these taxes.

We, through Tonghua Linyuan, have another written production agreement with Jinyuanshan Winery to produce Linyuan Hong Red for us at a charge of approximately $0.16 per bottle from May 20, 2012 to May 19, 2017. The agreement contains similar terms as the production written agreement we have with Jinyuanshan Wineary for producing Pearl in Snow Wine and Ice Wine. For more details of our wine production agreements with Jinyuanshan Winery, please refer to Exhibit 10. 30 and 10.31 filed to our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012.

After Tonghua Linyuan ceased operations pursuant to the sale of all of its assets on June 30, 2013, the above-mentioned contracts entered into by Tonghua Linyuan remain valid and will be fulfilled by Jilin Huamei.

The estimated total one-time costs associated with our  wine production is approximately 20 million RMB (about USD $3,019,916) including 10 million RMB for working capital, 10 million RMB for grape vineyard, wine processing, storage, marketing and other expenses. We plan to be funded through a combination of short-term borrowings, bank loans, cash from operations and sales of our equity.
 
Production Methods and Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

Wine is produced by fermenting crushed grapes using various types of yeast. Yeast consumes the sugars in the grapes and converts them into alcohol. As of June 30, 2013, Tonghua Linyuan did not reserve any grape juice, compared with 1,170 tons of fermented grape juice as of June 30, 2012. As recent harvests indicated that our vineyard is no longer suitable for producing grapes for wine production, we will now purchase grapes directly from the open market.

Distribution Methods

There are 667 cities in China, we intend to recruit one general distributor for wine in every city. The city level distributor can recruit the second level distributors. In addition to recruiting general distributors, in some major cities, Jilin Huamei will establish sale branch offices to facilitate the local sales. Our direct sale will target at customers of high end retailers such as supermarkets, pharmacies, hotels, gift shops, entertainment centers, tourists attractions, airport and high speed trains, etc.

We have started negotiating distribution and sales agreements with potential general distributors. On November 16, 2010, we entered into a distribution and sales agreement with Beijing Huayang Shengbang Trading Ltd (“Beijing Huayang”) whereby Beijing Huayang shall act as our general distributor of our wine in the Beijng area from November 16, 2010 to November 15, 2013. According to the agreement, Beijing Huayang is authorized to sell to stores, as well as through the channels of promotion and group purchase and to enter into sub-distribution agreements with second level distributors in the Beijing area. However, in no circumstance, shall Beijing Huayang sell or distribute our wine at a price less than the price we offered. Beijing Huayang shall have minimum annual sales of RMB 3,000,000 (about USD $451,242) and shall receive a bonus at certain percentage of sales exceeding the minimum sales. We used the same form of distribution agreement we use for our beverage distributors when entering into agreement with Beijing Huayang, which was disclosed above in the Distribution Methods of Canned Ginseng Juice section. In addition, we intend to use the same form of distribution agreement when we recruit any general distributor for our wine, although some terms might differ based on the negotiation we have with each distributor. As of the date of this filing we have signed one wine distributor, Beijing Huayang, through Jilin Huamei. The distribution agreement, expiring on November 15, 2013, was filed as Exhibit 10. 19 in the Form 10-12G/A we filed on May 31, 2011.

In addition, as a part of our adjustment to our marketing strategy of our ginseng juice and wine, we have established Hong Kong Huaxia in March 2012 to recruit distributors to sell wine and ginseng juice outside China in Asia markets and to build and maintain online shopping platform to take orders directly from end user customers.

Seasonality

As disclosed herein, we recently decided to stop the growing and harvesting of grapes. Wine has no seasonality. 
 
MARKETING ACTIVITIES

All of our products will be sold by our subsidiary Jilin Huamei and Hong Kong Huaxia through distributors or Jilin Huamei’s sale branch offices in some major cities, or Hong Kong Huaxia’s e-commerce.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

In July 2010, we conducted a market research program for ginseng beverages in China through a research institute, China Lantu Hongye Research Institute. Based on the report, management believes that there is not yet a leading brand of ginseng beverage in the China market and that the technology we use to produce our ginseng beverage will most likely provide a competitive advantage for our products in China over those currently in the Chinese market.

Other than as set forth above, we have had no research and development expenses in the past two years.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

We rely primarily on a combination of patent, certificates and administrative protections to safeguard our intellectual property.
 
The drink formula for our ginseng beverages is a registered patent approved by the Chinese government, patent number ZL 03111397.6. This patent was issued on January 23, 2008 and expires 20 years after issuance.

Although our other products have no patent protection, our two types of ginseng beverages have been certified as PRC domestic healthcare food by SFDA (State Food and Drug Administration) and received approval certificates (“GMP Healthcare Food Certificate”) from the SFDA, each of which is valid for a term of 5 years and renewable at the expiration thereof. According to the   Rules for Administration over Registration of Healthcare Food (Trial Implementation)   issued by SFDA on April 30, 2005, the healthcare food applying for GMP Health Food Certificate refers to such food as claimed to have special health function or focuses on supplementing vitamins or minerals, that is, food which is suitable for special population, has function of regulating the institutions instead of treating diseases, and will not bring any acute, sub-acute or chronic damages to the body. The application for registration of healthcare food shall be subject to an examination and approval process in which the SDFA evaluates and examines systematically the safety, effectiveness, quality controllability as well as the specifications of the healthcare food being applied for registration and make a decision as approving the registration or not according to the application and based on the lawful procedures, conditions and requirements. As of the date of this filing, we have following SFDA approval:

 
a.
Health food production permit for Jilin Ganzhi Beverage Company, Approval No. 2012-0019, issued on May 9, 2013, valid for one year.
 
 
13

 
 
 
b.

c.
SFDA approval for Ganzhi American Ginseng Beverage, No. SFDA G20090208 issued by the State Food & Drug Administration on 5/27/2009 which is valid for five years.
 
REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT

China is transitioning from a planned economy to a market economy. While the Chinese government has pursued economic reforms since its adoption of the open-door policy in 1978, a large portion of the Chinese economy is still operating under five-year plans and annual state plans. Through these plans and other economic measures, such as control on foreign exchange, taxation and restrictions on foreign participation in the domestic market of various industries, the Chinese government exerts considerable direct and indirect influence on the economy. Many of the economic reforms carried out by the Chinese government are unprecedented or experimental, and are expected to be refined and improved. Other political, economic and social factors can also lead to further readjustment of such reforms. This refining and readjustment process may not necessarily have a positive effect on our operations or future business development. Our operating revenues may be reduced by changes in China's economic and social conditions as well as by changes in the policies of the Chinese government, such as changes in laws and regulations (or the official interpretation thereof), measures which may be introduced to control inflation, changes in the interest rate or method of taxation, and the imposition of additional restrictions on currency conversion.
 
China’s legal system is a civil law system. Unlike the common law system, the civil law system is based on written statutes in which decided legal cases have little value as precedents. In 1979, China began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and has since introduced many laws and regulations to provide general guidance on economic and business practices in China and to regulate foreign investment. Progress has been made in the promulgation of laws and regulations dealing with economic matters such as corporate organization and governance, foreign investment, commerce, taxation and trade. The promulgation of new laws, changes of existing laws and the abrogation of local regulations by national laws could have a negative impact on our business and business prospects. In addition, as these laws, regulations and legal requirements are relatively recent, their interpretation and enforcement involve significant uncertainty.
 
We are subject to many general regulations governing business entities and their behavior in China and in any other jurisdiction in which we have operations. In particular, we are subject to laws and regulations covering food, dietary supplements and pharmaceutical products. Such regulations typically deal with licensing, approvals and permits. Specifically, these regulations concern Good Manufacturing Practices and SFDA approval as discussed above. Any change in product licensing may make our products more or less available on the market. Such changes may have a positive or negative impact on the sale of our products and may directly impact the associated costs in compliance and our operational and financial viability. Such regulatory environment also covers any existing or potential trade barriers in the form of import tariff and taxes that may make it difficult for us to export our products to certain countries and regions, such as Japan, South Korea and Hong Kong, which would limit our international expansion.

Because we are a wholly foreign owned enterprise, we are subject to the law on foreign investment enterprises in China, and the foreign company provisions of the Company Law of China, which governs the conduct of our wholly owned subsidiary and its officers and directors. Additionally, we are also subject to varying degrees of regulations and permit system by the Chinese government.

Foreign Investment in PRC Operating Companies

The Foreign Investment Industrial Catalogue jointly issued by the Ministry of Commerce for the People’s Republic of China and the National Development and Reform Commission in 2007 classified various industries/business into three different categories: (i) encouraged for foreign investment; (ii) restricted to foreign investment; and (iii) prohibited from foreign investment. For any industry/business not covered by any of these three categories, they will be deemed industries/business permitted to have foreign investment. Except for those expressly provided restrictions, encouraged and permitted industries/business are usually 100% open to foreign investment and ownership. With regard to those industries/business restricted to or prohibited from foreign investment, there is always a limitation on foreign investment and ownership. The PRC Subsidiary’s business does not fall under the industry categories that are restricted to, or prohibited from foreign investment and is not subject to limitation on foreign investment and ownership.

Regulation of Foreign Currency Exchange
 
Foreign currency exchange in the PRC is governed by a series of regulations, including the Foreign Currency Administrative Rules   (1996), as amended, and the   Administrative Regulations Regarding Settlement, Sale and Payment of Foreign Exchange (1996), as amended. Under these regulations, the Renminbi is freely convertible for trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, but not for direct investment, loans or investments in securities outside the PRC without the prior approval of China’s State Administration of Foreign Exchange. Pursuant to the   Administrative Regulations Regarding Settlement, Sale and Payment of Foreign Exchange   (1996), Foreign Investment Entities may purchase foreign exchange without the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange for trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions by providing commercial documents evidencing these transactions. They may also retain foreign exchange, subject to a cap approved by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, to satisfy foreign exchange liabilities or to pay dividends. However, the relevant Chinese government authorities may limit or eliminate the ability of foreign investment entities to purchase and retain foreign currencies in the future. In addition, foreign exchange transactions for direct investment, loan and investment in securities outside the PRC are still subject to limitations and require approvals from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange.

On July 21, 2005, the PRC government changed its decade old policy of pegging its currency to the U.S. currency. Under that policy, the Renminbi is permitted to fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. This change in policy has resulted in an approximate 21% appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar between 2005 and 2008. However, the PRC government decided to repeg the Renminbi to U.S. Dollars in response to the financial crisis in 2008. On June 19, 2010, China ended the peg of Renminbi to the U.S. Dollar which allowed a greater flexibility of its exchange rate. There remains significant international pressure on the appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. Dollar.

We have evaluated the determination of our functional currency based on the guidance in ASC Topic, “Foreign Currency Matters,” which provides that an entity’s functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates; normally, that is the currency of the environment in which an entity primarily generates and expends cash. On our own, our operation is conducted in China and we currently financed ourselves in Chinese Renminbi. Therefore, our functional currency is the Chinese Renmibi in accordance with the guidance in ASC 830-10-85-5.
 
While the Company uses United States dollars (“U.S. Dollar” or “US$” or “$”) for financial reporting purposes, the subsidiaries within the Company maintain their books and records in their respective functional currency, being the primary currency of the economic environment in which their operations are conducted. Because our past and current revenue from our subsidiaries are denominated in Renmibi, assets and liabilities of a subsidiary with functional currency other than U.S. Dollar are translated into U.S. Dollars using the applicable exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Items on the statements of income and comprehensive income and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the reporting period. Equity accounts are translated at historical rates. Adjustments resulting from the translation of the Company’s financial statements are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income. To the extent any of our future revenues are denominated in currencies other than the United States dollar, we would be subject to increased risks relating to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations which could have a material adverse affect on our financial condition and operating results since operating results are reported in United States dollars and significant changes in the exchange rate could materially impact our reported earnings.

Regulation of Foreign Investment Entities’ Dividend Distribution
 
The principal laws and regulations in the PRC governing distribution of dividends by foreign investment entities include:
 
(i)
The Sino-foreign Equity Joint Venture Law (1979), as amended, and the Regulations for the Implementation of the Sino-foreign Equity Joint Venture Law   (1983), as amended;

(ii)
The Sino-foreign Cooperative Enterprise Law (1988), as amended, and the Detailed Rules for the Implementation of the Sino-foreign Cooperative Enterprise Law   (1995), as amended;

(iii)
The Foreign Investment Enterprise Law (1986), as amended, and the Regulations of Implementation of the Foreign Investment Enterprise Law   (1990), as amended.

Under these regulations, foreign investment entities in the PRC may pay dividends only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. In addition, foreign-invested enterprises in the PRC are required to set aside at least 10% of their respective accumulated profits each year, if any, to fund certain reserve funds unless such reserve funds have reached 50% of their respective registered capital. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. The board of directors of a foreign investment entity has the discretion to allocate a portion of its after-tax profits to staff welfare and bonus funds, which may not be distributed to equity owners except in the event of liquidation.
 
Regulation of a Foreign Currency’s Conversion into Renminbi and Investment by Foreign Investment Entities
 
On August 29, 2008, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange issued a Notice of the General Affairs Department of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on the Relevant Operating Issues concerning the Improvement of the Administration of Payment and Settlement of Foreign Currency Capital of Foreign-Invested Enterprises   or Notice 142, to further regulate the foreign exchange of foreign investment entities. According to the Notice 142, foreign investment entities shall obtain verification report from a local accounting firm before converting its registered capital of foreign currency into Renminbi, and the converted Renminbi shall be used for the business within its permitted business scope. The Notice 142 explicitly prohibits foreign investment entities from using Renminbi converted from foreign capital to make equity investments in the PRC, unless the domestic equity investment is within the approved business scope of the foreign investment entity and has been approved by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange in advance.

Regulation of Foreign Exchange in Certain Onshore and Offshore Transactions
 
In October 2005, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange issued the Notice on Issues Relating to the Administration of Foreign Exchange in Fund-raising and Return Investment Activities of Domestic Residents Conducted via Offshore Special Purpose Companies, or the State Administration of Foreign Exchange Notice 75, which became effective as of November 1, 2005, and was further supplemented by two implementation notices issued by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on November 24, 2005 and May 29, 2007, respectively. The State Administration of Foreign Exchange Notice 75 states that PRC residents, whether natural or legal persons, must register with the relevant local State Administration of Foreign Exchange branch prior to establishing or taking control of an offshore entity established for the purpose of overseas equity financing involving onshore assets or equity interests held by them. The term “PRC legal person residents” as used in the State Administration of Foreign Exchange Notice 75 refers to those entities with legal person status or other economic organizations established within the territory of the PRC. The term “PRC natural person residents” as used in the State Administration of Foreign Exchange Notice 75 includes all PRC citizens and all other natural persons, including foreigners, who habitually reside in the PRC for economic benefit. The State Administration of Foreign Exchange implementation notice of November 24, 2005 further clarifies that the term “PRC natural person residents” as used under the State Administration of Foreign Exchange Notice 75 refers to those “PRC natural person residents” defined under the relevant PRC tax laws and those natural persons who hold any interests in domestic entities that are classified as “domestic-funding” interests.
  
PRC residents are required to complete amended registrations with the local State Administration of Foreign Exchange branch upon: (i) injection of equity interests or assets of an onshore enterprise to the offshore entity, or (ii) subsequent overseas equity financing by such offshore entity. PRC residents are also required to complete amended registrations or filing with the local State Administration of Foreign Exchange branch within 30 days of any material change in the shareholding or capital of the offshore entity, such as changes in share capital, share transfers and long-term equity or debt investments and these changes do not relate to return investment activities. PRC residents who have already organized or gained control of offshore entities that have made onshore investments in the PRC before the State Administration of Foreign Exchange Notice 75 was promulgated must register their shareholdings in the offshore entities with the local State Administration of Foreign Exchange branch on or before March 31, 2006.
 
Under the State Administration of Foreign Exchange Notice 75, PRC residents are further required to repatriate into the PRC all of their dividends, profits or capital gains obtained from their shareholdings in the offshore entity within 180 days of their receipt of such dividends, profits or capital gains. The registration and filing procedures under the State Administration of Foreign Exchange Notice 75 are prerequisites for other approval and registration procedures necessary for capital inflow from the offshore entity, such as inbound investments or shareholders loans, or capital outflow to the offshore entity, such as the payment of profits or dividends, liquidating distributions, equity sale proceeds, or the return of funds upon a capital reduction.
 
Government Regulations Relating to Taxation
 
On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress, approved and promulgated the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law. The PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law took effect on January 1, 2008. Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, foreign investment entities and domestic companies are subject to a uniform tax rate of 25%. The  PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law  provides a five-year transition period starting from its effective date for those enterprises which were established before the promulgation date of the  PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law  and which were entitled to a preferential lower tax rate under the then-effective tax laws or regulations.
 
On December 26, 2007, the State Council issued a Notice on Implementing Transitional Measures for Enterprise Income Tax, providing that the enterprises that have been approved to enjoy a low tax rate prior to the promulgation of the   PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law will be eligible for a five-year transition period since 1 January, 2008, during which time the tax rate will be increased step by step to the 25% unified tax rate set out in the   PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law. From 1 January, 2008, for the enterprises whose applicable tax rate was 15% before the promulgation of the  PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, the tax rate will be increased to 18% for year 2008, 20% for year 2009, 22% for year 2010, 24% for year 2011, 25% for year 2012. For the enterprises whose applicable tax rate was 24%, the tax rate will be changed to 25% from January 1, 2008.
 
The PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law provides that an income tax rate of 20% may be applicable to dividends payable to non-PRC investors that are “non-resident enterprises”. Non-resident enterprises refer to enterprises which do not have an establishment or place of business in the PRC, or which have such establishment or place of business in the PRC but the relevant income is not effectively connected with the establishment or place of business, to the extent such dividends are derived from sources within the PRC. The income tax for non-resident enterprises shall be subject to withholding at the income source, with the payer acting as the obligatory withholder under the   PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, and therefore such income taxes generally called withholding tax in practice. The State Council of the PRC has reduced the withholding tax rate from 20% to 10% through the Implementation Rules of the  PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law. It is currently unclear in what circumstances a source will be considered as located within the PRC. We are a U.S. holding company and substantially all of our income is derived from dividends we receive from our subsidiaries located in the PRC. Thus, if we are considered as a “non-resident enterprise” under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and the dividends paid to us by our subsidiary in the PRC are considered income sourced within the PRC, such dividends may be subject to a 10% withholding tax.
 
 
16

 
 
Such income tax may be exempted or reduced by the State Council of the PRC or pursuant to a tax treaty between the PRC and the jurisdictions in which our non-PRC shareholders reside. For example, the 10% withholding tax is reduced to 5% pursuant to the Double Tax Avoidance Agreement Between Hong Kong and Mainland China   if the beneficial owner in Hong Kong owns more than 25% of the registered capital in a company in the PRC.

The new tax law provides only a framework of the enterprise tax provisions, leaving many details on the definitions of numerous terms as well as the interpretation and specific applications of various provisions unclear and unspecified. Any increase in the combined company’s tax rate in the future could have a material adverse effect on its financial conditions and results of operations.

Food Safety Law of the People’s Republic of China
 
The Food Safety Law of the People’s Republic of China as adopted at the 7th Session of the Standing Committee of the 11th National People’s Congress of the People’s Republic of China and effective on June 1, 2009, governs the food safety in food production and business operation activities. Pursuant to the Food Safety Law of the People’s Republic of China, food producers must establish an internal inspection and record system for raw materials and predelivery products, and food distributors must also establish internal systems to record and inspect food products procured from suppliers. In addition, any food addictives that are not in the approved government catalog must not be used and no food products can be sold inspection-free.
 
Regulations on the Implementation of the Food Safety Law of the People’s Republic of China
 
The Regulations on the Implementation of the Food Safety Law of the People’s Republic of China as adopted at the 73rd Standing Committee Meeting of the State Council on July 8, 2009 and effective on July 20, 2009, are promulgated in accordance with the Food Safety Law of the People’s Republic of China. The Regulations require that the local People’s Government at or above the country level shall perform the responsibility specified in the Food Safety Law of the People’s Republic of China, improve the ability for supervision and administration of food safety, ensure supervision and administration of food safety; establish and improve the coordination mechanism between food safety regulatory authorities, integrate and improve the food safety information network, and realize the sharing of food safety and food inspection information and other technical resources.
 
Law of the People’s Republic of China on Quality and Safety of Agricultural Products
 
The Law of the People’s Republic of China on Quality and Safety of Agricultural Products was adopted at the 21st Meeting of the Standing Committee of the Tenth National People’s Congress on April 29, 2006. This Law was enacted in order to ensure the quality and safety of agricultural products, maintain the health of the general public, and promote the development agriculture and rural economy. Pursuant to this Law, agricultural products distribution enterprises shall establish a sound system of inspection and acceptance for their purchases. In addition, agricultural products that fail to pass the inspection based on the quality and safety standards of agricultural products cannot be marketed.
 
Regulation on the Sale of Wine

The material regulations for the standards of wine in China are the wine standard (GB 15037) and the wine labeling law (GB 10344) both of which are administered by General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the People’s Republic of China which have the following requirements:
 
 
The name of the product is mandatory in China. The words ‘grape wine’ should be sufficient. However, it is advisable to qualify this with ‘red’, ‘white’, ‘sparkling’, ‘semi-sparkling, ‘fortified’, ‘sweetened fortified’ etc. As wine can be considered to be made from a single raw material, it should be exempt from the requirement for ingredient listing. Nevertheless, sweeteners, preservatives and added color (legal in the case of fortified wine only) need to be declared.
 
 
The alcohol format is prescribed in Chinese regulations. The alcohol statement should be in the form ‘Alcoholic strength xx.x percent vol’. The tolerance between the actual and the stated alcohol is +/- 1.0percent.
 
 
The volume statement must appear on the label. The statement must be on the same display panel as the word ‘wine’.

 
A country of origin statement is mandatory. The date of bottling is required on Chinese labels.

 
Wines with an alcohol content of 10 percent or less are required to include a minimum durability date. Wines over 10 percent alcohol are exempt from this requirement.

 
The product type is mandatory for China. This can be indicated by the actual sugar content or by the category.
 
 
17

 
 
With a view to regulate the sale of wine, the Ministry of Commerce of the PRC (“MOFCOM”) issued Measures for Administration of Alcohol Circulation   (the “Circulation Measures”) on November 7, 2005. According to the Circulation Measures, an entity or individual that engages in wholesale or retail of alcohol (collectively “Alcohol Operator”) shall, within 60 days as of collecting a business license, handle the archival filing and registration in the administrative department of commerce at the same level as the administrative department for industry and commerce where the registration is handled according to the principle of territorial administration. An Alcohol Operator (supplier) shall, when undertaking any wholesale of alcoholic goods, fill in the Form for Registration of Alcohol Circulation (“Registration”) and record the information on the circulation of alcoholic goods in detail. The Registration shall follow the whole course of alcohol circulation, be bundled with the goods and comply with the information on goods so as to realize the traceability of the circulation information throughout the course from the day when alcoholic goods leave the factory to the point of sales terminal. In addition, an Alcohol Operator shall mark and sell the bulk alcohol in a fixed place. Any mobile sale of bulk alcohol is prohibited. An alcohol operator shall not sell any alcoholic goods to any minor and shall indicate this in an eye-catching position in its business place.
 
With a view to regulate the import and export of commodity or technology (including wine), the MOFCOM issued the Measures for Registration for the Record of Foreign Trade Operators   (the “Registration Measures”) on June 25, 2004. The Registration Measures, which entered into effect on July 1, 2004, are based on the revised   Foreign Trade Law   of the PRC and specify registration rules applicable to operators of commodity or technology import-export business (“Foreign Trade Operators”). Under the Registration Measures, Foreign Trade Operators need to carry out registration for the record with the MOFCOM or the local commerce administrations authorized by it (“Local Registration Authority”). However, operators which have obtained the qualification to operate commodity or technology import-export business prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Measures are exempt from the registration requirement unless they wish to operate outside of the already approved scope of operation. A Foreign Trade Operator should normally register with the Local Registration Authority. Upon receiving the application documents, the Local Registration Authority must complete the registration and return the stamped registration form within five days. The Foreign Trade Operator then has thirty (30) days to complete the relevant formalities with the local customs, inspection and quarantine, foreign exchange, tax, etc. authorities.
  
We are and anticipate that we will be in full compliance with aforementioned regulations and do not anticipate that they will have any significant impact on our business as such.

Only SFDA and MOFCOM are required for the sale of our wine. Penalties would be levied upon us if we fail to comply with or adhere to and maintain certain standards or requirements as specified above. Such failure has not occurred in the past, and we generally do not anticipate that it may occur in the future, but no assurance can be given in this regard.

Excepted mentioned above, there is no special regulations that restrict sales of our wine externally, and we do not need other pre-approval for export. Each foreign country has different standards for importing our products; in the US for example requires FDA approval, which we do not have and thus do not export our wine to the US. The company has no short-term plans to expand its wine export to countries outside China.

As noted above, we have all other necessary regulatory approvals to manufacture and sell our wine in China.

Compliance with Environmental Law

We comply with the Environmental Protection Law of China and its local regulations. In addition to statutory and regulatory compliance, we actively ensure the environmental sustainability of our operations. Our costs of compliance with applicable environmental laws are minimal, since the manufacturing of our products generates very limited damages, if any, to the environment. Accordingly we had no expenditures for compliance with environmental law in 2009 and do not anticipate incurring any such costs in the future. Penalties would be levied upon us if we fail to adhere to and maintain certain standards. Such failure has not occurred in the past, and we generally do not anticipate that it may occur in the future, but no assurance can be given in this regard.
 
Competition

Ginseng

The market in China for ginseng is extremely competitive. Based upon management’s knowledge of the industry in China, we believe that there are more than four companies engaged in ginseng production in China.  The significant competition within the ginseng industry for planting land is compounded by the Chinese government’s recent promotion of forestation in state-owned forests.  This has dramatically reduced the woodland available for ginseng planting.

Our major competitors are Changbai Baoquan Mountain, Changbai Ni Li River, Ji An Ginseng and Antler Company & The First Fu Song Ginseng Farm.  Based upon its significant knowledge of the ginseng industry in China, management believes that we rank in the middle of these competitors, the larger of which in general have greater financial and personnel resources and have achieved greater market penetration than we have.  However, because there are no published statistics concerning our competitors, this is based solely upon management’s experience in the industry.
 
 
18

 
 
The ranking is based on the size of ginseng planting area and shift to ginseng drinks business will not affect company’s ranking.  We recently started to generate revenues from the sales of ginseng drinks. As of June 30, 2013, we had $71,263 from the sales of ginseng drinks. We foresee that revenues from the sales of ginseng drinks will increase significantly in the future, and we believe they will offset any loss of revenue due to the recent shift of business.

We believe we compete in this market based upon:

 
Land Resources controlled directly or through arrangements with farmers;

 
Ginseng cultivation systems and techniques; and

 
Established distribution network.

Ginseng Beverage

In the market there are about 10 kinds of ginseng beverage listed as following. The prices of these products range from approximately $0.60 to $4.51 per bottle. However, we have noticed that there is little advertisement and promotion currently in the China market and the sales of ginseng drinks are limited.  Based on the market research we conducted in July 2010 through a research institute, China Lantu Hongye Research Institute, the management believes there has not been a leading brand of ginseng beverage in the China market yet.

As we have just commenced sales of these products, we are a small competitor in the market.  Some of our competitors have greater financial and personnel resources and all have achieved greater market penetration than we have.

We believe we have some competitive advantage in the China market due to the technology we use to produce our ginseng beverage.  Based upon reading of competitors’ labels, all of their ginseng drinks are produced by blending after extracting ginsenosides through chemical methods. Management believes that the extraction for ginsenosides will cause damage to its nutritional components because high heat is used in the process of the extraction.  Our technology is different from the method used by our competitors.  We squeeze out the natural juice from fresh ginseng. However, our drink formula enables us to use refrigerated ginseng as raw material to produce canned ginseng juice and still able to maintain its freshness and nutrition in final products  The drink formula for our ginseng beverages is a registered patent approved by the Chinese government, patent number ZL 03111397.6.  This patent was issued on January 23, 2008 and expires 20 years after issuance. In order to store the fresh ginseng, we rent a refrigerated warehouse (-20 C degree) to store all fresh ginseng. We currently have fresh ginseng inventory to produce approximately one million cans of ginseng juice.
 
Wine

We are competing with domestic producers of wine as well as importers of wines from other countries.  Due to the size of our production, we are a small competitor in the market.  Some of our competitors have greater financial and personnel resources and all have achieved greater market penetration than we have.

We will use grapes purchased from the open market for our wine production.  As the quality of the wine substantially depends on the quality of grape juice and the location of vineyard, the principal competitors we will have in wine business will be the following companies using the grapes grown in the same area:

 
Jilin Provincial Changbaishan Wine Holding Co., Ltd.

 
Jilin Tianchi Wine Company Ltd.

 
Tonghua Tianchi Wine Company Ltd.

The climate in Changbai Mountain is ideal for growing grapes because of the significant temperature difference during day and night. It contributes to the accumulation of polyphenols and Flavonoids in grapes improving the taste and quality of the wine.  In addition, Changbai Mountian has longer cold winters. On average, for more than 160 days per year, the temperature in Changbai Mountain falls below -45 C, which prevents the development of  pest diseases.
 
Based upon management’s knowledge of the industry, we believe that more than 100 wineries have opened since 1996 and there are estimated 500 vineyards across China, which supply almost all of the wines consumed domestically.  For example, Great Wall Winery, one of the leading local brands in China, produces over 50,000 tons of wine each year from its three main production areas in North China.
 
We believe we compete in this market based upon the fact that our wines are produced from grapes grown in Changbai Mountains which is well recognized as a favorable growing region.

Our principal executive offices are located at 1562 Jie Fang Great Road, 16 FL  Zhongji Building,  Suite 1062-1063, Nanguan District, Changchun City, China. The corporate headquarters occupy approximately 749.17 square meters and is on a one year lease from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2014.  Rent is approximately $500, 76 for one year.

We own free and clear the office building located in the City of Yanbian, which is approximately 4,519 square feet, and it is used for office/administrative purposes. We also own free and clear processing center  in the City of Yanbian, which is consisted of 7,090 square feet of space; warehouse space of 1366 square feet; and seasonal worker dormitory of 688 square feet.  In the City of Yanbian, we also own the right to use the parcel of land (129,120 square feet approximately) where these facilities are located.  The land use right is for 30 years commencing November 2002 and there is no rent required due to the preferential policies.

Currently, we rent refrigerated warehouse space of 160 cubic meters and we pay approximately $678.86 per month.  The refrigerated warehouse space is 160 cubic meters, which is not enough for our future refrigerated storage needs. We will need to at least double the space. Our current refrigerated storage space is sufficient to store 20 tons of fresh ginseng. However, we might need more refrigerated space in the future after we start production and sales of canned ginseng juice. In the future, we plan to build our own refrigerated warehouse, with approximately 1,000 cubic meters storage space, after we are able to generate stable net income from sales of our ginseng beverage and anticipate that it will take about two months to complete building.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results 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 the Company for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 and should be read in conjunction with such financial statements and related notes included in this report.

Overview
 
Our company, China Ginseng Holdings Inc., was incorporated on June 24, 2004 in the State of Nevada.  The company conducts business through its four wholly owned subsidiaries located in Northeast China and one subsidiary in Hong Kong. We have been granted 20 year land use rights to 3,705 acres of lands by the Chinese government for ginseng planting and lease Vineyard.
 
Since our inception in 2004, we have been engaged in the business of farming, processing, distribution and marketing of fresh ginseng, dry ginseng, ginseng seeds, and seedlings.  In March 2008, we acquired Tonghua Linyuan Grape Planting Co., to plant wild mountain grapes, which we decided to cease in June 2012. Starting in August 2010, we have gradually shifted the focus of our business from direct sales of ginseng to canned ginseng juice and wine.

Since we shifted the focus of our business into the ginseng beverage business, and the wine business, we have started to store our raw material and sell very limited self-produced ginseng. We also purchase ginseng from outside sources, and then resell them to generate revenue and those sales are based on the order from the market. However, due to the global recession and local market conditions, demand for ginseng exports declined beginning in 2008, creating a significant oversupply in China. All those factors caused us to have losses in recent years. In addition, our new business is in the initial stages, we need to spend capital to promote our new products, and develop our marketing plan. There is no assurance that there will be sufficient demand for our beverages and wine to allow us to operate profitably initially, or at all. Our auditors have determined that we do not currently have sufficient working capital necessary and have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. As of June 30, 2013, the cash balance on hand for the Company was about $19,454.

In order to meet the challenge, we are taking the following actions:
 
 
·
We raised capital to support our operation through a Regulation S private placement; and
 
·
We are recruiting distributors for ginseng beverage and wine products and we intend to recruit one general distributor for ginseng juice and one for wine in every city in which we sell our products.

Although we have not generated any revenues from our ginseng beverage and wine businesses, we believe there is future potential to do so because (i) the China’s ginseng market is recovering now, (ii) the demand and the price is in the uptrend due to Chinese government restrictions on the amount of land available for ginseng farming (land under our Company’s control was not affected by the government restrictions), and (iii)  as of the date this filing, we have already entered into binding agreements with ten  distributors to distribute our  beverage in different cities.

As the impact of the shift in the focus of our business away from the ginseng business and into the ginseng beverage business and then the wine business is uncertain, our past revenues and other financial results will not provide a meaningful basis for future performance given the material change in our business and there is no guarantee that we will be able to attain profitability in the foreseeable future.

Our Subsidiaries:

Our business in China is conducted through four wholly owned subsidiaries located in Northeast China and Hong Kong. The current operational status of each of these businesses as of the date of this filing  is as follows:

 
·
Yanbian Huaxing: planting ginseng for use as raw material in our ginseng beverage and selling ginseng to the market if the ginseng produced is not qualified to be used for ginseng beverage
 
·
Jilin Ganzhi : processing fresh ginseng and canned ginseng
 
·
Tonghua Linyuan: growing grapes and reserving grape juices for wine production, producing wine through a winery producer (Note: as explained in other parts of this filing, we sold all assets and debts of Tonghua Linyuan on June 30, 2013, pursuant to which Tonghua Linyuan became a shell and ceased operations.)
 
·
Jilin Huamei:  sale department of our ginseng beverage and wine
 
·
Hong Kong Huaxia: Sales of ginserg juice and wine and cosmetic products in Asia

As of the date of this filing, except as explained above for Tonghua Linyuan, each of our subsidiaries operates as an essential part of our integrated business and  all of our businesses are operational.

Our Products:

Previously, through Yanbian Huaxing, we focused on the farming, processing, distribution and marketing of Asian and American Ginseng and related byproducts in the following varieties:

 
·
Fresh Ginseng:   For pharmaceutical, health supplement, cosmetic industry and fresh consumption.

 
·
Dry Ginseng:   Dried form for pharmaceutical and, health supplement consumption.

 
·
Ginseng Seeds:  Selling of ginseng seeds.

 
·
Ginseng Seedling:  Selling of ginseng seedling.

Ginseng's growing season is from April to September, six months a year.  Normally we sow the seed in April and harvest in September. Ginseng seeds are obtained after the blossom in autumn, the seed can be sowed in September or next Spring, it takes 10 days to germinate and 10 days for seedling.  And the whole growing cycle for ginseng from seeding to harvest usually takes around 5-6 years to ensure the growth of ginseng and the nutrition it contains in the root. For ginseng, every hectare can harvest 18 to 20 kg ginseng. As of June 30, 2013, the planting area for ginseng is 287.984 square meter.

Since August 2010, we have gradually shifted our business focus from direct sale of ginseng and ginseng byproducts to production and sale of canned ginseng juice and wine.

Through Jilin Ganzhi, we are producing two types of canned ginseng juice.

 
·
Ganzhi Asian Ginseng Beverage

 
·
Ganzhi American Ginseng Beverage

In addition to canned ginseng juice, we have added wine production to our business focus.   We started wine production through a winery producer in March 2011 and sales in April 2011. We have contracted for the production of the wine.

We plan to produce and sell two kinds of wine:

 
·
Bingqing Ice Wine

 
·
Pearl in the Snow (Red)

New Focus of Our Business

Canned Ginseng Juice

Currently, there are about 10 kinds of ginseng drinks on the market; all of them are imported from Korea.  The price range for those products is 4 –30 RMB per can (about USD $0.60-$ 4.51).
 
The most important component of ginseng is ginsenoside. Based upon reading competitor labels, all of their ginseng drinks are produced by blending after extracting ginsenosides through chemical methods. The extraction for ginsenosides will cause damage to its nutritional components. Our technology is different from that traditional method used by our competitors.  We squeeze out the natural juice from fresh ginseng as the main material plus natural extracts like xylitol, citric acid and steviosides as subsidiary ingredients. We have farming technicians periodically inspect farmers to ensure they follow our growing guidelines to control the quality of the fresh ginseng.  We use low residue pesticide and biodegradable fertilizer for ginseng planting. And we use xylitol instead of sugar to lower calories.  Further, products made with xylitol do not cause a sour taste.

The reason direct squeezing is not commonly used in canned ginseng juice is that it needs fresh ginseng as a raw material and preservation of fresh ginseng is very difficult. However, our drink formula enables us to use refrigerated ginseng as raw material to produce canned ginseng juice and still able to preserve its freshness and nutrition in final products  The drink formula for our ginseng beverages is a registered patent approved by the Chinese government, patent number ZL 03111397.6.  This patent was issued on January 23, 2008 and expires 20 years after issuance.

In order to produce canned ginseng juice, we store our fresh ginseng in refrigerated warehouse space. We are currently renting a refrigerated warehouse (-20 C degree) to store all fresh ginseng inventory necessary for production of the ginseng beverages.   Monthly rent for refrigerated warehouse is RMB 4,500 (about USD $676.86). We commenced production in August 2010 and sales in October 2010. However, as we are in the initial stage of ginseng beverage business, we cannot assure the demands for our ginseng beverage will be high enough to make our business profitable in the short term and there is no guarantee that we will be able to generate the revenue from ginseng beverage business.

We own the production plant.  The plant is certified by the Chinese government as a Good Manufacturing Process facility, which is required for our production of these products.  Good Manufacturing Process standards cover organization and personnel, building and facilities, equipment, materials, hygiene and sanitation, validation, documentation, production management, quality management, production distribution and recall, complaints and adverse reactions report, and self-inspections.

Wine

Our grapes grew on 750 acres of land leased from a group of individual farmers, paying approximately $37.50 per acre a year for 15 years.  However, recent harvests of grapes showed poor quality for wine production which indicates that the vineyards are no longer suitable for planting grapes for wine production. Therefore, we have decided not to renew our lease for the vineyards with the Chinese government upon expiration on December 31, 2013 and going forward we intend to purchase grapes from the open market in order to produce grape juice and wine.
 
We started producing wine in March 2011 and had one sale in April 2011. Through Tonghua Linyuan, we have a written production agreement with Tonghua Jinyuanshan Winery (“Jinyuanshan Winery”) to produce wine for us from May 20, 2009 to May 19, 2017. After Tonghua Linyuan ceased operations pursuant to the sale of all of its assets on June 30, 2013, the contracts entered into by Tonghua Linyuan with Jinyuanshan Winery remain valid and will be fulfilled by our subsidiary, Jilin Huamei. Under the terms of the agreement, we provide Jinyuanshan Winery with grape juice, bottling supplies and packaging supplies, and Jinyuanshan Winery produces and bottles the wine with a charge of approximately $0.15-0.22 per bottle (approximately $0.15 a bottle for processing red wine and approximately $0.22 per bottle for processing ice wine).
 
Distribution

We intend to recruit one general distributor for our products of ginseng beverage and wine in every city in China.  The city level distributor can recruit the second level distributors.  In addition to recruiting general distributors, in some major cities, Jilin Huamei will establish sale branch offices to facilitate the local sales. Our direct sale will target at customers of high end retailers such as supermarkets, pharmacies, hotels, gift shops, entertainment centers, tourists attractions, airport and high speed trains, etc.
 
We have started negotiating distribution and sales agreements with potential general distributors. Currently, we have signed 7 general distributors for our ginseng beverage and 1 general distributor for our wine.

Competitive environment
 
The market for ginseng products and wine is highly competitive. Our operations may be affected by technological advances by competitors, industry consolidation, patents granted to competitors, competitive combination products, new products offered by our competitors, as well as new information provided by other marketed products and/or other post-market studies.

Our total revenue decreased from $4,315,809 for the year ended June 30, 2012 to $3,563,165 for the year ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $752,644 or 17%. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease of the sales of purchased ginseng, wine and ginseng beverage.

The sales revenue from our ginseng production includes our own farming production and ginseng purchased from the farmers who leased land from us, collectively referred as our grown ginseng.  For the year ended June 30, 2013, the sales of our grown ginseng increased by $1,035,547 or 117%, compared to the year ended June 30, 2012.  The increase of sale s revenue was caused by significant increase of market price.

In August 2012, the typhoon "Bolaven" landed at Mudanjiang Ginseng Farm causing a significant loss on our own ginseng production. As a result of the typhoon, all of the ginseng at Mudanjiang that was to be harvested in the calendar years 2014 has been lost so that there will be no ginseng to be harvested until 2018. The ginseng we harvested in fiscal year 2012 was from Yanbian Huaxing and we sold it to the market because it was not qualified as raw material to make ginseng juice due to typhoon damage. The Typhoon also caused the market price for the year ended June 30, 2012 to increase by  $28.32/kg.

Although the damage caused by the typhoon will reduce the production of our grown ginseng leading  our ginseng juice production to be more dependent on outside sources for raw material supplies,  we believe this damage should not have a significant impact on our ginseng beverage business due to the following reasons: 1) our current inventory for stored high quality fresh ginseng enables us to produce approximately one million cans of ginseng juice; 2) we only sold 5113 boxes (59,477 cans) and 13,972 boxes (159,281 cans) of ginseng juice during the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Although we anticipate that market demands for our ginseng juice will increase gradually, we do not foresee it will exceed one million cans of ginseng during the year of 2014; 3) in the past, high quality ginseng purchased from the outside farmers has been a major source of raw material supplies for our ginseng juice production and we will continue purchasing ginseng from outside sources for ginseng juice production based on our production needs; and 4) we maintain good relationships with ginseng farmers and are well known in local ginseng industry. We have not encountered any difficulty and do not expect any in purchasing high quality ginseng from outside sources.
 
On the other hand, resale revenue of ginseng we purchased from the open market based on our major customers’ orders decreased from $2,705,019 for the year ended June 30, 2012 to $1,247,108 for the year ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $1,457,911 or 54%. The decrease was mainly caused by the decreased quantity we sold to the major customers and decreased average resale price. The quantity we sold to our major customers decreased by 31,261kg, or 49% during the year ended June 30, 2013, compared to the year ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was mainly because two of our major customers, Heilong Jiang Sinopharm Medicine Co, Ltd and Yasukuni Sinlong Chinese Herbal Medicine Company, temporarily stopped their orders because of their own production issue. In addition, the average resale price of the purchased ginseng decreased by $5/Kg, or 12% during the year ended June 30, 2013, compared to the year ended June 30, 2012. This decrease was due to decreased quality of ginseng we purchased in 2013 compared to 2012
 
90% of $1,457,911 or $1,312,129 decrease was caused by decreased quantity of sale
 
10% of $1,457,911 or $145,791 decrease was caused by the decrease of resale price of purchased ginseng
 
For the year ended June 30, 2013, approximately $71,263 or 2 % of our revenue was generated from our ginseng beverage production, a decrease of $345,381 or 83%, compared to the year ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was due to decreased quantity and sale price. Because of the limited cash we had in 2013, we were not able to conduct marketing for our ginseng beverage. Although we discounted our sale price, we sold less ginseng beverage compared to the year ended June 30, 2012. Thus, in order to improve the sale of ginseng beverages, we plan to 1) adjust our marketing strategy of ginseng beverages by applying a new reduced size ginseng beverage in the fiscal year 2014; 2) enhance Hong Kong Huaxia sales force through training classes and/or hiring more experienced sales person; 3) adjust our online shopping platform to make it easier to access, and more convenient for customers; and 4) raise capital from third parties to fund the above-mentioned strategies.
 
We believe that we will be able to improve the sale of ginseng beverages through the above changes and expect that sales of ginseng beverage will rise to 70% of our revenue in the next five years. However, there is no assurance that our sales of ginseng beverage will meet our expectation as the market conditions may change.
 
For the year ended June 30, 2013, approximately $2,618 of our revenue was generated from wine product, a decrease of $230,061, compared to the year ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was mainly caused by the decreased demands from the customers. Based on the current trend of wine demands in China market, the Company adjusted the anticipation of its wine revenue in the next 3 to 5 years from 20% to 5%. And there can be no assurance that our sales of wine will reach such levels in the anticipated time period, if at all.

The remaining $318,067 or 9% of our revenue for the year ended June 30, 2013 was generated from resale of Aoweisi cosmetic products, which were sold through Hong Kong Huaxia based on consumers’ orders. We do not expect this to be a major source of our revenue in the future.

Our total cost of goods sold decreased from $3,313,553 for the year ended June 30, 2012 to $2,671,572 for the year ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $641,981 or 19.37%.  
 
1. The total cost of ginseng production increased from $635,871 for the year ended June 30, 2012 to $1,427,154 for the year ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $791,283 or 124.44%. The increase was mainly caused by the fact that we harvested less ginseng in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 due to the damages on our farm lands from a typhoon in August 2012. Therefore, the total fix cost of our growing ginseng crops, such as annual maintenance, fertilizer, pesticides, plant sheds, irrigation, transportation, etc , allocated on harvest ginseng increased in the year ended June 30, 2013.

2. The cost of resale of purchased ginseng decreased from $2,407,959 for the year ended June 30, 2012 to $1,126,869 for the year ended June 30, 2013. The decrease was primarily because of decreased quantity of ginseng we purchased from outside farmers. The decreased purchase quantity was due to reduced market demands. Additionally, during this same period there were two major customers that temporarily stopped their orders.

3. Our cost of ginseng beverage production decreased from $216,375 for the year ended June 30, 2012 to $71,598 for the year ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $144,777, or 66.91%,  primarily due to decreased variable cost, such as part-time labor cost, raw material cost and maintenance fees, etc.
 
4. Our cost of wine production decreased from $31,479 for the year ended June 30, 2012 to $1,336 for the year ended June 30, 2013. The decrease was mainly because of the significant decrease in the quantity of wine we sold during the year ended June 30, 2013.  

5.  We had a new cost of $44,615 from sales of Aoweisi cosmetic products for the year ended June 30, 2013, which did not occur during the year ended June 30, 2012.
 
Cost of Sales as a percentage of revenue decreased by 2% in the year ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the year ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease of cost of goods sold attributable to purchased ginseng and beverage production as compared to the fiscal year of 2012.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was approximately $891,593 for the year ended June 30, 2013 compared to $1,002,256 for the year ended June 30, 2012, a decrease of $110,663 or 11%. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in our overall product sales.
 
Selling General and Administration Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $1,894,721 for the year ended June 30, 2012 to $1,330,146 for the year ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of $564,575, or 30%. The decrease in 2013 was due to the decrease in our operation expense from Ganzhi including but not limited to meal allowance, labor cost and marketing expense, such as advertising expense, etc from HK Huaxia and Jilin Huamei.
 
Our selling, general and administrative expenses may fluctuate in the future due to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to:

 
Additional expenses as a result of becoming a reporting company including, but not limited to SEC reporting, transfer agent fees, additional staffing, professional fees and similar expenses;

 
Expenses resulting from developing new products or expansion of new markets, including travel and entertainment and advertising expenses.
 
 
28

 
 
Bad Debt Expense

The allowance for doubtful accounts represents management’s estimate of the amount of probable credit losses, determined by reviewing past due balances and other information.  The bad debt expense increased by $248,197,or 42% from $594,749 for the year ended June 30, 2012 to $842,946 for the year ended June 30, 2013.The increase in bad debt expense in 2013 was due to the determination that certain past due receivables from 2012 were uncollectible.  

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization was $82,240 for the year ended June 30, 2013, compared to $49,635 for the year ended June 30, 2012, an increase of $32,605 or 66%.  The increase was primarily due to a full year’s depreciation on new building purchases, and less depreciation being capitalized.

Interest Expense
 
Our interest expense increased by $42,448, from $294,238 for the year ended June 30, 2012 to $251,790 for the year ended June 30, 2013, representing a 14% decrease.  Interest expense includes an amount for imputed interest relating to non-interest bearing loans to related parties aggregating $124,931 and $156,599 for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The interest unpaid to bank loans for the Jilin Ganzhi building was the primary reasons for the decrease in interest expense occurred in the year ended June 30, 2013. 
 
Income Tax Expense

There is no income tax expense for the year ended June 30, 2013.

Impairment of Ginseng Corps

In August 2012, a typhoon struck the Mudanjiang Ginseng Farm destroying approximately 112,000 square meters of planted ginseng having an approximate value of $1,227,979. This loss was charged to operations during the year ended June 30, 2013.
 
Net Loss

As a result of the above factors, net loss was $3,646,004 for the year ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $720,520 or 25%, as compared to the net loss of $2,925,484 for the year ended June 30, 2012.
 
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 June 30, 2013 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 $169,400 and $152,897 for the year ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. And we have comprehensive loss of $3,815,404 and $2,772,587 for the year ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The assets and liabilities amounts with the exception of equity for the year ended June 30, 2013 were translated at 6.1787 RMB to 1.00 USD as compared to 6.3249 RMB to 1.00 USD for the year ended June 30, 2012. The equity accounts were stated at their historical rate. The average translation rates applied to the income statements accounts for the year ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 were 6.27968 RMB and 6.3437 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 loans from related parties, including officers, directors and other shareholders of the Company and have raised capital through a Regulation S private placement as well. Our current activities are related to developing our new business strategy the sale of Ginseng juice and wine products.

As of June 30, 2013, we had working capital deficit of $1,223,760, compared to a working capital deficit of $1,077,872 as of June 30, 2012.

As of June 30, 2013, there was no change in our loan payments compared with June 30, 2012 since the loans remained constant. As of June 30, 2013, we had an outstanding loan of 2,000,000 RMB (about $316,211) to Ji’An Qingshi Credit Cooperatives (“Ji’An Qingshi”). The principal terms of the loan are as follows:
 
 
1.
Type of Loan: Short Term Agriculture Loan

 
2.
Loan Purpose: Planting
 
 
3.
Loan Amount: Principal of 2,000,000 RMB (about USD $316,211) with an annual interest of 6.325%

 
4.
Loan Period:  From February 4, 2002 to February 4, 2003; Repayment due date was February 4, 2003

 
5.
Security: The loan is secured by assets of Tonghua including 14 carbon-steel storage cans; 16 high-speed steel  storage cans and 150 tons of grape juice
 
We have not paid any principal or interest of the loan; however, Ji’An Qingshi verbally agreed in March 2008 not to call the loan. The material terms for the verbal agreement are: No principal or interest payments are required to be made until the Company is generating profits and interest continues to accrue until we repay the loan.   On June 27, 2013, the Company decided to dispose of the assets and liabilities of Tonghua Linyuan to a third party and plans to close Tonghua Linyuan. The Company has retained $508,347 in contingent liabilities of Tonghua Linyuan for the year ended June 30, 2013.
 
On August 30,  2012, we refinanced the 8 million RMB bank loan which we obtained from Meihekou City Rural Credit Union on November 8, 2010 by a new loan of 8 million RMB (approximately USD $1,264,842) from the same lender.  The principal terms of the new 8 million RMB bank loan agreements are as follows:
 
 
Parties: Jilin Ganzhi Ginseng Products Co., Ltd (“Jilin Ganzhi”) and Meihekou City Rural Credit Union (“Meihekou Credit Union”);
 
 
Meihekou Credit Union granted a loan of 8 million RMB (approximately USD $ 1,264,842 ) to Jilin Ganzhi to be used in calling in and refunding and the term of the loan is 24 months from August 30, 2012 to August 29, 2014.
 
 
The loan carries a benchmark interest rate is the rate announced by the People’s Bank of China as an interest rate of same type and class of loans at the date of the loan and changes with the adjustment of national bank rate.  Meihekou Credit Union calculates the interest on a monthly basis applying this annual floating rate which is payable on the 21st day of each month. We paid interest of 94,127 RMB (about USD $ 14,838) on August 21, 2012. And from September, 2012 to June 30, 2013, we have not paid interest and we plan to pay all outstanding interest when we have sufficient cash.
 
 
Repay the principal by installments according to the following repayment plan: principal payment of RMB1M (approximately USD $159,096) on September 20, 2012, RMB 1M (approximately USD $159,096) on August 29, 2013, RMB 1M (approximately USD $159,096) on December 20, 2013 and RMB 5M (approximately USD $795,481) on August 29, 2014.  The payment due in September 2012 was not made by the Company and the note is thus in default.
 
As of June 30, 2013, there was no change in our loan payments compared to June 30, 2012, since the loans remained constant.  Since the lender, Ji’An Qingshi Credit Cooperative has verbally agreed not to call the loan, we can repay this loan at our own discretion when funds are available. Thus, the debt in Tonghua Linyuan acquisition will not have impact on our liquidity and capital resource before we start to repay the lender.

As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, we had notes payable of approximately $1,279,982and $1,271,740 to related parties, respectively. These amounts are mainly due to the working capital demands of the business. Most of these related parties are our individual shareholders or immediate family members of our shareholders and friends of our shareholders.  The individuals loaned us funds, which are interest free, which have no specific repayment date and are unsecured.  The funds received are evidenced by receipt of cash acknowledgments.  
 
As of June 30, 2013, we had no material commitments for capital expenditures other than for those expenditures incurred in the ordinary course of business. We plan to fund operations and capital expenditures with cash from operations, as well as loans from major shareholders and management members and their affiliates. We might also pursue additional financings 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.

Operating activities

Cash flows provided by  operating activities is  $108,478 for the year ended June 30, 2013, compared to the cash flows of $1,051,182  used in operating activities for the year ended June 30, 2012. This change was because we had the amount of $85,123 net cash used in operating activities- continuing operations and the amount of $193, 601 net cash provided by operating activities- discontinued operations for the year ended June 30, 2013.

Cash flows used in operating activities- continuing operations decreased by $85,123 in the year ended June 30, 2013 compared with 2012. This change was primarily due to a combination of a net loss of $2,843,508, increased accounts receivable of $1,929,103 mainly offset by increased account payable of $662,823, increase in amount due to farmers of $307,449, a decrease in ginseng crops of $644,646, and a decrease in amounts due from farmers of $196,332.

The increase in accounts receivable represents the uncollected amounts from our increased credit sales during the year. An increase in accounts payable and in amounts due to farmers was due to the credit term we earned from our suppliers.
 
The decrease in our ginseng crops was due to damange caused by typhoon in August, 2012. In August 2012, a typhoon struck the Mudanjiang Ginseng farm destroying approximately 111,839 square meters of planted ginseng having an approximate value of RMB 6,754,675 (US$ 1,227,979), which was charged as an impairment loss in the Statement of Operations.  The decrease in accounts due from farmers was because the Company extended the credit term to them to obtain a good relationship with the suppliers.
 
On June 30, 2013, the Company discontinued its' grape production operations.  The Company sold the assets and liabilities of Tonghua Linyuan, and plans to close Tonghua Linyuan.
 
Investing activities
 
Cash flows provided by investing activities amounted to $13,497 for the year ended June 30, 2013, which consisted of a purchase of office equipment of $2,689 and return of investment in unconsolidated businesses of $16,186.   In July 2012, the Company purchased a cell phone for sales department;  in April 2013, the Company purchased a computer for Hong Kong Huaxia; and in January 2013, the Company withdrew the investment made on September 25, 2011 because Jilin Province Jiliang Beverage Investment Co, Ltd could not provide register fund into the Company.

Cash flows used in investing activities amounted to $32,338 for the year ended June 30, 2012, which consisted of a long-term investment of $16,358 and a purchase of property and equipment of $15,980.  During the year ended June 30, 2012,Yanbian Huaxing spent $3,775 (24,500 RMB) to purchase a tractor for ginseng farming business and Jilin Huamei spent $12,205 (77,425) RMB) purchasing office supplies, such as computers, printers, office tables, desks, bookcases, chairs and sofa.

In September 2011, the Company entered into agreement with three other companies to establish a new entity, Jilin Province Jiliang Beverage Investment Management Co., Ltd (“Jilin Jiliang”). The purpose of Jilin Jiliang is to provide investment and project consultation. Under the agreement, the Company is required to invest a total of $78,679 (RMB 500,000) for a 10% interest in Jilin Jiliang by September 25, 2012. In September 2011, the Company invested $15,887 (RMB 100,000) in Jilin Jiliang. The Company accounts for this investment utilizing the cost method.

Financing activities

Our cash flows provided by financing activities for the year ended June 30, 2013 was $17,545, from loans payable to related parties. 
 
Cash flows provided by financing activities for the year ended June 30, 2012 was $886,417 which consists of proceeds from sale of common stock of 49,940 and proceeds from loans payable to the related parties of $836,447.
 
Cash flows provided by financing activities decreased by $871,872 or 98% for the year ended June 30, 2013 compared to June 30, 2012
 
Going Concern

As indicated in the accompanying financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2013, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $9,407,413, at June 30, 2013, a negative working capital deficit of $1,223,760 at June 30, 2013 and there are existing uncertain conditions the Company foresees relating to its ability to obtain working capital and operate successfully. Management’s plans include the raising of capital through the equity markets to fund future operations and the generating of revenue through its businesses. Failure to raise adequate capital and generate adequate sales revenues could result in the Company having to curtail or cease operations.
 
 
31

 
 
Additionally, even if the Company does raise sufficient capital to support its operating expenses and generate adequate revenues, there can be no assurances that the revenues will be sufficient to enable it to develop business to a level where it will generate profits and cash flows from operations.  These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  However, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

To the Board of Directors
China Ginseng Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Changchun City, China

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of China Ginseng Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2013 and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2013.  China Ginseng Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit provides 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 China Ginseng Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note A to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred an accumulated deficit of $9,407,413 since inception, has a negative working capital of $1,223,760, and there are existing uncertain conditions the Company faces relative to its ability to obtain working capital and operate successfully.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about its’ ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also discussed in Note A.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 2013 AND 2012


NOTE A – NATURE OF BUSINESS, PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN

Nature of Business

China Ginseng Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), was incorporated under the laws of Nevada on June 24, 2004.

On November 24, 2004, the Company acquired 55% of Yanbian Huaxing Ginseng Industry Co. Limited (“Yanbian Huaxing”), which is located in China and, is in the business of farming, processing, distribution, and marketing of Asian Ginseng.  The company utilizes the Ginseng harvest to produce a Ginseng beverage and buys Ginseng for the resale market.  On November 24, 2005, the Company acquired the remaining 45% of Yanbian Huaxing.

Yanbian Huaxing controls, through 20 year leases granted by the Chinese Government, approximately 1,500 hectors (3,705 acres) of land used to grow ginseng.  The Company had no operations prior to November 24, 2004. These leases expire through 2024.

On August 24, 2005, the Company acquired Jilin Ganzhi Ginseng Produce Co. Limited, whose principal business is the manufacture of Ginseng drinks.

On October 19, 2005, the Company incorporated a new company, Jilin Huamei Beverage Co. Limited (“Jilin Huamei”).

On March 31, 2008 the Company acquired Tonghua Linyuan Grape Planting Co. Limited (“Tonghua Linyuan”) whose principal activity was the growing, cultivation and harvesting of a grape vineyard. The Company plans to produce wine and grape juice but to date has not commenced production. As of June 30, 2012, Tonghua Linyuan leased 750 acres of land on which the grapes were planted.  In June 2012, the Company decided to abandon the growing and harvesting of grapes due to the poor quality of recent harvests which were not suitable for the production of wine or grape juice. Accordingly, the Company has abandoned the vineyard and recorded a charge to operations of $872,658. The Company has also decided not to renew its leases with the Chinese Government.  The Company will now purchase grapes in the open market to produce wine and grape juice.  On June 30, 2013, the Company sold the assets and liabilities of Tonghua Linyuan to a third party. See Note O.

On March 2, 2012, the Company approved the incorporation of a new subsidiary, Hong Kong Huaxia International Industrial Co., Limited (“Hong Kong Huaxia”) in Hong Kong in order to sell health and specialized local products.  Hong Kong Huaxia was incorporated in Hong Kong on March 18, 2012 and began operations in April 2012.  Hong Kong Huaxia has registered 880,000,000 shares of 1 HKD par value stock in Hong Kong.  None of the $113,443,000 (880,000,000 HKD) registered capital of Hong Kong Huaxia has been funded.

Consolidated Financial Statements

The financial statements include the accounts and activities of China Ginseng Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Yanbian Huaxing Ginseng Co. Limited, Jilin Huamei Beverage Co. Limited, Jilin Ganzhi Ginseng Products Co. Limited, Tonghua Linyuan Grape Planting Co. Limited and Hong Kong Huaxia International Industrial, Co. Limited.  All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 2013 AND 2012
 
NOTE A – NATURE OF BUSINESS, PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN (CONTINUED)

Going Concern

As indicated in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $9,407,413, at June 30, 2013, a negative working capital deficit of $1,223,760 at June 30, 2013 and there are existing uncertain conditions the Company foresees relating to its ability to obtain working capital and operate successfully. See also Note S as to losses from typhoon which occurred in August of 2012.  Management’s plans include the raising of capital through the equity markets to fund future operations and the generating of revenue through its businesses. Failure to raise adequate capital and generate adequate sales revenues could result in the Company having to curtail or cease operations.

Additionally, even if the Company does raise sufficient capital to support its operating expenses and generate adequate revenues, there can be no assurances that the revenues will be sufficient to enable it to develop business to a level where it will generate profits and cash flows from operations.  These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  However, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE B – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company considers the Chinese Renminbi to be its functional currency.   Assets and liabilities were translated into US dollars at period-end exchange rates.  Statement of operations amounts were translated using the average rate during the period.  Gains and losses resulting from translating foreign currency financial statements are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

Cash Equivalents

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash equivalents include investment instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.  There were no cash equivalents at June 30, 2013 and 2012.

Inventory

Inventory consists of fresh and dried Ginseng, as well as formerly crushed grapes, and is stated at the lower of cost or market value.  Cost is determined using the First-In, First-Out (FIFO) Method.

Advertising

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. For the year ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, advertising expenses were $1,035 and $17,735, respectively.

Ginseng Crops

The Company uses the full absorption costing method to value its Ginseng crops.  Included in crop costs are seeds, labor, applicable overhead including depreciation, and supplies. Common costs are allocated in each period based upon the total number of hectors under cultivation during the period.

The carrying value of the Ginseng crops is reviewed on a regular basis for any impairment in value using management’s best estimate as to expected future market values, yields and costs to harvest.  Costs accumulated on the acres expected to be harvested during the next fiscal year have been classified as a current asset.

Revenue Recognition

The Company processes Ginseng and stores the stock for its Ginseng juice production.  Any grown Ginseng not suitable for the beverage production is sold.  The Company is also purchasing Ginseng for its resale business. Ginseng is planted in the Spring (March) and Fall (September) of each year and is generally harvested in September. It usually takes 6 years for a Ginseng root to mature, although, senior maturity can be 8 years.

Harvested Ginseng can be sold in two ways: (1) fresh Ginseng which can be sold immediately and stored in refrigerators for up to 3 years and (2) dried Ginseng which is processed and dried via sunlight and steam machines. Drying is a two month process.  Dried Ginseng can be stored up to 5 years. The Company has focused on selling dried Ginseng as it is more profitable than selling fresh Ginseng. The Company has also been storing fresh Ginseng for future juice manufacturing.

When the Company sells Ginseng, it receives orders prior to harvest.  For major customers, approximately 20% to 30% is paid upon delivery as payment in advance.  The balance is billed after the customer incurs a lengthy inspection process which can take up to 60 days.  Until the customer finalizes its inspection and deems the shipment acceptable, the shipment is still the property of the Company.  Upon customer completion of inspection and approval, the sale is then recognized and the balance of the invoice price is wired to the Company. For smaller sales, customers pick up the Ginseng from the Company, pay in cash at time of pick up and receive an invoice with appropriate sales tax applied and a cash acknowledgement. On these orders, revenue is recognized upon shipment/payment.

The Company has entered into several distribution agreements to sell Ginseng juice and wine.  In accordance with these agreements, the distributors will advance funds to the Company for orders to be placed.  Upon the placement of orders by the distributor, the Company will ship the product to the distributor and title will pass to the distributor.  In relation to distribution agreements for Ginseng beverages, it is the Company’s policy, commencing with the initiation of the distribution agreements, to allow the distributors to return all unsold products at the end of six months from the shipment date should the product not be sold and the product has not exceeded the expiration date.  The Company is establishing history as to the quantity of the Ginseng which has been returned in order to determine if a reserve for returns and allowances is necessary.  To date, returns have been minimal.

Revenue Recognition (Continued)

For each reporting period, the Company ascertains from each distributor its’ current on hand quantity and assesses the situation in order to establish a return allowance, if necessary.  At June 30, 2013, no inventory was held on consignment.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable consist principally of trade receivables. When Ginseng is shipped to a customer, the customer is entitled to an inspection process which could take up to 60 days.  Upon completion of the inspection and approval process, the customer notifies the company and a sale is recorded.  The allowance for doubtful accounts represents management’s estimate of the amount of probable credit losses, determined by reviewing past due balances and other information.  Account balances are written off against the allowance if management determines the receivable is uncollectible.  The Company’s standard terms stipulate payment in 60 days.  The Company considers a receivable to be uncollectible after one year.  The allowance for doubtful accounts was $1,507,992 and $664,976 at June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at cost and is depreciated using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, as follows:
 
Buildings and improvements
6 - 40 years
Machinery and equipment
5 - 15 years
Motor vehicles
5 - 10 years
Office equipment
5 - 10 years
 
Routine maintenance, repairs and replacement costs are expensed as incurred and improvements that extend the useful life of the assets are capitalized.  When equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in operations.

Vineyard Development Costs
 
In June 2012, the Company decided to abandon the growing and harvesting of grapes due to the poor quality of recent harvests which were not suitable for the production of wine or grape juice. Accordingly, the Company has abandoned the vineyard and recorded a charge to operations of $872,568, which is included under discontinued operations. The Company has also decided not to renew its leases with the Chinese Government.  The Company will now purchase grapes in the open market to produce wine and grape juice.

Net Loss Per Common Share

The Company computes per share amounts in accordance with ASC Topic 260 Earnings per Share (EPS) which requires presentation of basic and diluted EPS.  Basic EPS is computed by dividing the income (loss) available to Common Stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS is based on the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock equivalents outstanding during the periods.

Comprehensive Income

The Company follows ASC 220-10, Reporting Comprehensive Income, (formerly SFAS No. 130). ASC 220-10 requires the reporting of comprehensive income in addition to net income from operations. Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes utilizing the liability method of accounting.  Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on differences between financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates in effect in years in which differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are expected to be ultimately realized.

Uncertainty in Income Taxes
 
The Company follows ASC 740-10 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”).  This interpretation requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” approach.  Management evaluates their tax positions on an annual basis, and has determined that as of June 30, 2012 and 2013, no additional accrual for income taxes other than the foreign, federal and state provisions and related interest and estimated penalty accruals are considered necessary.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, primarily property and equipment, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable. Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or a significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets is not recoverable.  For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company recognizes an impairment loss only if its carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted cash flows and measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value.

Fair Value Measurements
 
ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements.  ASC issued 825-10,  The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an Amendment of ASC 320-10,  (“ASC 825-10”) which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value at specified election dates.  A business entity is required to report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2012 to make them comparable to the presentation for the year ended June 30, 2013.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2012, the FASB issued an accounting standard update to provide guidance on increasing the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. This accounting standard update eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity and requires that the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. It is also required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The Company adopted this accounting standard effective July 1, 2011.

In September 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with three other companies to establish a new entity, Jilin Province Jiliang Beverage Investment Management Co., Ltd (“Jilin Jiliang”). The purpose of Jilin Jiliang is to provide investment and project consultation. Under the agreement, the Company was required to invest a total of $89,923 (RMB 500,000) for a 10% interest in Jilin Jiliang by September 25, 2012.  In September 2011, the Company invested $16,185 (RMB 100,000) in Jilin Jiliang.

NOTE F – GINSENG CROPS

The Company’s business, prior to June 30, 2009, was primarily to harvest and sell fresh and dried Ginseng.  The growth period takes approximately 5 to 6 years before harvest can commence and up to 8 years for improved harvest and seedling yields. The Company is changing its business model to utilize the harvested Ginseng to manufacture Ginseng juice and other Ginseng beverages.  It commenced the juice operation in August 2011.  The Company plants selected areas each year and tracks the costs expended each year by planting area.  The Chinese government owns all the land in China.

Currently, the Company has land grants from the Chinese government for approximately 1,500 hectors of land (approximately 3,705 acres) to grow Ginseng which were awarded in April and May 2005. These grants are for 20 years and the management of the Company believes that the grants will be renewed as the grants expire in different areas.  However, there are no assurances that the Chinese government will continue to renew these grants in the future. The planting of new Ginseng is dependent upon the Company’s cash flow and its ability to raise working capital.

NOTE G – AGREEMENTS WITH FARMERS

The Company has executed agreements with a number of local farmers to grow, cultivate and harvest Ginseng utilizing the Company’s land grants.  The farming contracts commenced in January 2008.  In connection with these agreements, the Company (1) leases sections of the Ginseng land grants to the farmers at approximately $1.50 (10 RMB) per square meter per year, (2) provides the seeds and fertilizer to the farmers and clears the land of large debris.  These costs are capitalized by the Company and included in the Ginseng Crop inventory, (3) pays the farmers a management fee of approximately $0.50 (4.00 RMB) per square meter per year and (4) the farmers are required to produce 2kg of Ginseng for each square meter that they manage.  The Company pays the farmers market price for their Ginseng.  If the harvest is below 2kg per square meter, the difference will be deducted from the total payment for Ginseng purchased.  If the harvest produces more that 2kg per square meter, the Company pays approximately $3.00 for every extra kilo. The Company records these agreements on a net basis by individual farmers.  The Company has recorded a receivable from the farmers for the rental income of the leased Ginseng land grants of $0 and $191,794 at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The Company has also recorded a long-term payable-farmers for the management fee due to the farmers.  The liability at June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $870,300 and $549,841, respectively.  The receivable and liability balances for the respective areas will be settled at harvest time when the Company purchases the harvest at the current market value for Ginseng.

NOTE N – PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

Deferred income taxes are determined using the liability method for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and income tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes are measured based on the tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences are included in the Company’s tax return. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on anticipated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.

Deferred tax assets consist of the following at:

The deferred tax asset is the result of an inventory provision and related reserve. Under Chinese tax laws, the Company is not entitled to a deduction for the provision until the inventory is completely discarded. Accordingly, the liability has been recorded offset by a deferred tax asset representing a timing difference.

The Company has a net operating loss carry forward as follows:

The operating losses are available to offset future taxable income. The China net operating loss carryforwards can only be carried forward for five years and will commence expiring in the year 2013.  The Company does not file a consolidated tax return in China. Therefore, the profitability of the individual Chinese companies will determine the utilization of the carryforward losses. The U.S. carryforward losses are available to offset future taxable income for the succeeding 20 years and commence expiring in the year 2027.

We have not changed, nor had any disagreements with our accountants regarding our accounting or financial disclosure in the last two fiscal years.
 

(a)
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
 
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective to ensure that information that is required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
(b)
Management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting
  
We do not expect that our controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all controls and procedures, no evaluation of controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Management is responsible for establishing and managing adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that internal controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Furthermore, smaller reporting companies face additional limitations. Smaller reporting companies employ fewer individuals and may find it difficult to properly segregate duties. Often, one or two individuals control every aspect of the Company’s operations and are in a position to override any system of internal control. Additionally, smaller reporting companies tend to utilize general accounting software packages that lack a rigorous set of software controls.
 
Management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2013. In making this assessment, management used the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The objective of this assessment is to determine whether our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2012. Based on our assessment utilizing the criteria issued by COSO, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 2013 due to the existence of the following material weaknesses:

 
·
As of June 30, 2013, there was a lack of accounting personnel with the requisite knowledge of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) in the U.S. and financial reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission;

 
·
As of June 30, 2013, there were insufficient written polities and procedures to ensure the correct application of accounting and financial reporting with respect to the current requirements of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.

 
·
As of June 30, 2013, there was a lack of segregation of duties, in that we only had one person performing all accounting related duties;

 
·
As of June 30, 2013, there was no independent audit committee.
  
Notwithstanding the existence of these material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, our management believes that the financial statements included in its reports fairly present in all material respects the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.  We continue to evaluate the effectiveness of internal controls and procedures on an on-going basis. Once our cash flows from operations improve to a level where we are able to hire additional personnel in financial reporting, we plan to improve our internal controls and procedures by hiring an experienced controller and building an internal accounting team with sufficient in-house expertise in US GAAP reporting. However, due to the limited cash flow we are currently having, we can not assure you when we will be able to implement those remediation methods.
 
(c)
Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter covered by this report that has materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 

None.

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships among our officers or directors.

Legal Matters

No officer, director, or persons nominated for such positions, promoter or significant employee has been involved in the last ten years in any proceeding set forth in Item 401 of Regulation S-K.   
 
Corporate Governance

Our Board of Directors has five directors and has not established Audit, Compensation, and Nominating or Governance Committees as standing committees. The Board does not have an executive committee or any committees performing a similar function. We are not currently listed on a national securities exchange or in an inter-dealer quotation system that has requirements that a majority of the board of directors be independent. The Board has determined that the two members of the Board are independent.

Due to our lack of operations and size prior to the Share Exchange, we did not have an Audit Committee. Furthermore, we are currently quoted on the Pink Sheets under the symbol “CSNG” and the Pink Sheets does not have any listing requirements mandating the establishment of any particular committees.  For these same reasons, we did not have any other separate committees during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013; all functions of a nominating committee, audit committee and compensation committee were performed by our whole board of directors.  Our board of directors intends to appoint such persons and form such committees as are required to meet the corporate governance requirements imposed by the national securities exchanges as necessary. Therefore, we intend that a majority of our directors will eventually be independent directors and at least one director will qualify as an “audit committee financial expert.”

Board Leadership Structure and the Board’s Role in Risk Oversight.   

The Board of Directors maintains a structure with the Chief Executive Officer of the Company holding the position as Chairman of the Board of Directors.
 
The Board does not have a policy regarding the separation of the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board as the Board believes it is in the best interests of the Company to make that determination based on the position and direction of the Company and the membership of the Board.  The Board believes that there is no one best leadership structure model that is most effective in all circumstances and retains the authority to separate the position of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in the future if such change is determined to be in our best interests and the best interests of our shareholders.
 
The Board of Directors utilizes a leadership structure that has the Chief Executive Officer (who is the Corporation’s principal executive officer and a director) who also acts in the capacity as Board Chairman, without a designated independent lead director. This structure creates efficiency in the preparation of the meeting agendas and related Board materials as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer works more directly with those preparing the necessary board materials and is more connected to the overall daily operations of the Company. Agendas are also prepared with the permitted input of the full Board of Directors allowing for any concerns or risks of any individual director to be discussed as deemed appropriate. The Board believes that the Company has benefited from this structure and, Mr. Liu’s continuation in the combined role of the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer is in the best interests of the shareholders.

The Company believes that this structure is appropriate and allows for efficient and effective oversight, given the Company’s relatively small size (both in terms of number of employees and in scope of operational activities directly conducted by the Company), its corporate strategy and its focus on research and development. The Board of Directors does not have a specific role in risk oversight of the Company. The Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer and, as needed, other executive officers and employees of the Company provide the Board of Directors with information regarding the Company’s risks.
 
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our officers, directors and persons who own more than 10% of any class of our securities registered under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Based on our review of copies of such reports, we believe that there was compliance with all filing requirements of Section 16(a) applicable to our officers, directors and 10% stockholders during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.

Board of Directors

We have no compensation arrangements (such as fees for retainer, committee service, service as chairman of the board or a committee, and meeting attendance) with directors. Our directors have not received any kind of compensation including cash, stock, options, non-equity incentive plan compensation, nonqualified deferred compensation earnings or other compensation for fiscal year 2013.

Compensation Policies and Practices as they Relate to Risk Management

We do currently believe that our compensation policies and practices do not encourage excessive or unnecessary risk-taking and that the level of risk that they do encourage is not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.  The design of our compensation policies and practices encourages our employees to remain focused on both our short- and long-term goals.
 
The following table sets forth certain information regarding beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of October [ ], 2013 by (i) each person (or group of affiliated persons) who is known by us to own more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of our Common Stock, (ii) each director, executive officer and director nominee, and (iii) all of our directors, executive officers and director nominees as a group. As of October [ ], 2013, we had 44,397,297 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.
  
Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with SEC rules and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. For purposes of this table, a person or group of persons is deemed to have “beneficial ownership” of any shares of common stock that such person has the right to acquire within 60 days of October [ ], 2013.  For purposes of computing the percentage of outstanding shares of our common stock held by each person or group of persons named above, any shares that such person or persons has the right to acquire within 60 days of [ ], 2013is deemed to be outstanding for such person, but is not deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. The inclusion herein of any shares listed as beneficially owned does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership. Notwithstanding the foregoing, because the Series M Preferred Stock votes on as converted basis with the Common Stock, we have included the owners of such stock in this table.  Accordingly, we calculate beneficial ownership for purposes of this table as follows:
 
A + B
X + B
