EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

We are filing this amendment (“Amended Report”) to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended December 31, 2014 (“Original Report”) of Tianyin Pharmaceutical Co., Inc. (the “Company” or “TPI”) to correct an error in classifying certain assets of the Company due to the contribution of those assets to a joint venture pursuant to an agreement entered into by an operating subsidiary of the Company on October 29, 2014 and subsequent transfers of the controlling stake of the joint venture by the operating subsidiary in April and May 2015 pursuant to certain share transfer agreements entered into in November 2014 and May 2015 respectively, which would have resulted in the Company classifying and recognizing those assets as “Assets Held for Sale” in the unaudited consolidated financial statements included in the Original Report. This Amended Report is being filed to amend the disclosures affected by the corrected classification of the assets contributed to the joint venture and to include disclosures of the joint venture and share transfers. This Amended Report speaks as of the filing date of the Original Report, and it may not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original Report on March 13, 2015, nor does it modify or update those disclosures presented therein, except with regard to the modifications described in this Explanatory Note. Accordingly, this Amended Report should be read in conjunction with the Original Report and our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of our Original Report, including any amendments to those filings.

 

In addition, pursuant to Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as a result of this Amended Report, the certifications pursuant to Section 302 and Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, filed and furnished, respectively, as exhibits to the Original Report have been re-executed and re-filed as of the date of this Amended Report and are included as exhibits hereto.

TIANYIN PHARMACEUTICAL CO., INC.

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

Tianyin Pharmaceutical (the “Company” or “TPI”), was established under the laws of Delaware. The Company’s primary business is to research, manufacture and sell pharmaceutical products in China through its wholly owned subsidiaries.

 

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONSOLIDATION

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TPI and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP applicable to interim financial information and the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods have been included.

 

These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2014, included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission on December 9, 2014, as not all disclosures required by US GAAP for annual financial statements are presented. The interim consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of computations as the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2014.

In preparing the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, we evaluated the period from December 31, 2014 through the date the financial statements were issued for material subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure. No such events were identified for this period.

 

The Company uses the United States dollar (“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. 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 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 a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

 

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

 

NOTE 3 – ACQUISITION OF NON-CONTROLLING INTEREST

NOTE 7 – INCOME TAXES

 

The Company's subsidiary, Raygere, is incorporated in the British Virgin Islands. Under the corporate tax laws of British Virgin Islands, it is not subject to tax on income or capital gain.

 

The operating subsidiaries in China are all subject to 25% income tax rate. The tax write- offs and loss profit credit could only be applied to the individual subsidiaries of TPI.

 

In July 2006, the FASB issued ASC 740 that clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum probability threshold that a tax position must meet before a financial statement benefit is recognized. The minimum threshold is defined as a tax position that is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company did not recognize any benefits in the financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 and for the six months ended December 31, 2014.

 

The comparison of income tax expense at the U.S. statutory rate of 35% in 2014 and 2013, to the Company’s effective tax is as follows:

 

   Six months ended
December 31,
 
   2014   2013 
         
U.S. Statutory rate  $539,305   $1,580,046 
Tax rate difference between China and U.S.   (152,005)   (450,750)
Change in valuation allowance   49,864    232,569 
Effective tax  $437,164   $1,361,865 

 

The provisions for income taxes are summarized as follows:    
   Six months ended

NOTE 8 – RISK FACTORS

 

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

 

NOTE 9 – RISK OF CONCENTRATIONS AND CREDIT RISK

 

Concentrations

 

In terms of individual product sales, our major product Gingko Mihuan Oral Liquid (GMOL) represented 59% or $9.6 million of total sales for the six months ended December 31, 2014, as compared to 40% or $11.4 million of total sales for the six months ended December 31, 2013.  For the quarter ended December 31, 2014, GMOL sales represented 60% or $4.0 million as compared to 45% or $6.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2013.

 

For the six months ended December 31, 2014, one single customer accounted for 23% of the Company’s total sales compared with no customer with more than 10% of the Company’s sales for the six months ended December 31, 2013.

 

Purchases from one vendor accounted for 54% of the Company’s total purchases for the six months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to four vendors accounted for 18%, 14%, 12% and 11% respectively of the Company’s total purchases for the six months ended December 31, 2013.

 

Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash on deposit with financial institutions. Management believes that the financial institutions that hold the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are financially sound and minimal credit risk exists with respect to these investments. Due to the state ownership of China’s majority of financial institutions, the policies that regulate the banking industry also presents a unique risk that impacts all industrial segments in China. The traditional industries such as pharmaceutical manufacturing without exception may also be affected in terms of capital expenditure for GMP certification, raw material purchases and etc.

Item 2.   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 Tianyin Pharmaceutical Co., Inc. for the three and six months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 and should be read in conjunction with such financial statements and related notes included in this report and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K  for the year ended June 30, 2014.

 

The information set forth below includes forward-looking statements. Certain factors that could cause results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements are set forth below. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update publicly these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

 

Overview

 

We are engaged in the development, manufacturing, marketing and sale of patented biopharmaceutical, modernized traditional Chinese medicines (mTCM), branded generics and other pharmaceuticals in China. We currently manufacture and market a portfolio of 58 products, 24 of which are listed in the National Medical Reimbursement program including the patent protected Ginkgo Mihuan Oral Liquid (GMOL) and a series of drug candidates that target various high incidence healthcare conditions in China. Established in 1994, Chengdu Tianyin Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd (“Chengdu Tianyin”) is a pharmaceutical company that manufactures and sells mTCMs and branded generics. The current management acquired 100% of the equity interest of Chengdu Tianyin in 2003. On October 30, 2007, Grandway Groups Holdings Ltd. (“Grandway”) completed the acquisition of the 100% of the equity interest and now owns 100% of the equity interest of Chengdu Tianyin.

 

In June 2009, Chengdu Tianyin invested approximately $0.7 million (RMB 5 million) to establish a wholly-owned trading subsidiary, Chengdu Tianyin Medicine Trading Co., Ltd (“TMT”) for the sale and distribution of pharmaceutical products to optimize our business model through our distribution channels.

 

On August 21, 2009, Chengdu Tianyin, Sichuan Mingxin Pharmaceutical (“Sichuan Mingxin”) and an individual investor established Sichuan Jiangchuan Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd (“JCM”). JCM’s major business is to produce macrolide antibiotic active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). It was incorporated as a part of our strategy to establish our presence in the API industry in China. The total registered capital of JCM is approximately $3.2 million (equivalent of RMB 20 million), of which Chengdu Tianyin accounts for 87%, after increasing its stake in JCM from 77% at the inception of JCM by purchasing another 10% ownership from Sichuan Mingxin in the fiscal year 2012. On September 30, 2014, Chengdu Tianyin purchased the remaining 13% of the ownership of JCM from the individual investor for approximately $2.4 million (RMB 15 million). Consequently, JCM became a wholly owned subsidiary of Chengdu Tianyin.

 

On August 29, 2012, Chengdu Tianyin entered into a Share Transfer Agreement with the shareholders of Sichuan Hengshuo Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd (“Sichuan Hengshuo” or “HSP”), a pharmaceutical distribution company, to acquire 100% ownership of HSP for approximately $0.2 million (RMB 1.3 million). The purpose of the acquisition was to facilitate the relocation of Company’s manufacturing facility to Qionglai since HSP was registered at Qionglai. The share transfer was closed on November 30, 2012, pursuant to which Chengdu Tianyin now owns 100% of HSP and Guoqing Jiang, Chairman and CEO of Chengdu Tianyin has become the legal representative of HSP.

 

On January 27, 2015, a joint venture, Qionglai Tianyin Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (“Qionglai Tianyin”), with the total registered capital of RMB 200,000,000 (approximately US$32.3 million), was established pursuant to a Cooperation Framework Agreement Regarding Chengdu Tianyin Pharmaceutical Co., Inc. (“Cooperation Framework Agreement”) by and among Chengdu Tianyin, Grandway Group Holdings Ltd. (“Grandway Group”, which is the Company’s indirect wholly-owned subsidiary and holds 100% interest of Chengdu Tianyin), Guoqing Jiang (“Jiang”) and Shandong Buchang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (“Shandong Buchang”), entered into on October 29, 2014. Pursuant to the Cooperation Framework Agreement, Chengdu Tianyin and Shandong Buchang owned 95% and 5% respectively of Qionglai Tianyin. Shandong Buchang’s capital investment in Qionglai Tianyin took the form of RMB 10 million (approximately US$1.6 million), which was remitted on January 26, 2015, and Chengdu Tianyin’s capital investment in Qionglai Tianyin took the form of its buildings, land use rights, machineries and equipment of its plant located at Longquan and Qionglai, all of its patents and trademarks, and its portfolio drugs collectively valuated at approximately RMB 190 million (approximately USD $30.7 million) (the “Assets”). In November 2014, Shandong Buchang, Chengdu Tianyin, Qionglai Tianyin and Grandway Group entered into a Share Transfer Agreement Regarding Qionglai Tianyin Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (“Share Transfer Agreement”). Pursuant to the Share Transfer Agreement, after Chengdu Tianyin has completed the transfer of the Assets into Qionglai Tianyin, Chengdu Tianyin shall transfer 72% of Qionglai Tianyin’s stock to Shandong Buchang at the total price of RMB 144,000,000 (approximately US$23.2 million) which shall be paid in installments.

 

Competitive Environment

 

The market for pharmaceutical products 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.

Development and Growth Strategy

 

Research and Development (R&D)

 

We have a proven cooperative partnership model for the R&D which is cost effective, efficient, and value adding for our organic growth. We focused on innovative products as well as modifications and improvements of existing marketed products with substantial market potential. Our R&D partners include a number of most prestigious academic institutions in China such as China Pharmaceutical University, Sichuan University-affiliated West China Center of Medical Sciences, and Shaanxi University of Chinese Medicines. The partnership-based R&D strategy supports TPI to commercialize, produce, and broaden our product pipeline and to market those products through our sales and marketing infrastructure. In July 2014, a TPI’s subsidiary, Chengdu Tianyin, entered into a research and development agreement with a pharmaceutical research company to expand formulation varieties from GMOL to Capsule formulation. The in-house research group at TPI together with the partnership research institutes will collaborate in developing, testing and filing for the CFDA approval application. The project is expected to be completed by August 2017.

 

Jiangchuan Macrolide Facility (JCM)

 

In January 2012, the JCM for R&D, manufacturing and sale of macrolide APIs received its GMP certification designated as "CHUAN M0799," which is valid until December 31, 2015. As a result, JCM started the production of the macrolide API for TPI’s Azithromycin Dispersible Tablets (SFDA No: H20074145). The API produced by JCM supplies for TPI’s own Azithromycin Tablets as well as for both domestic and international third party sales.

 

In April 2014, JCM has developed a new line of Azithromycin API products that supports steady monthly export orders to South Asia. Following a series of tests on quality, purity, intermediates contents, stereochemistry, stability in comparison with the international standards of Azithromycin API, JCM has received monthly orders for manufacturing one of the major intermediates of Azithromycin, Azithromycin Amine (AA) at a competitive international price which varies on monthly basis according to market demands and foreign exchange rate. Following JCM’s application (No. 51268) for the import certificate to India via India's Central Drugs Standard Control Organization Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, JCM successfully passed the preliminary examination on December 30, 2014, and was notified on January 16, 2015 by the Directorate General Of Health Services, Office of Drug Controller General (India) Import and Registration Division regarding the application to import Azithromycin API Products and Intermediates to send in samples of Azithromycin API from three different lots for analysis. Upon request, the samples were sent to the Central Drug Testing Laboratory (CDTL) in Mumbai, India for the final approval of the import. JCM has also been negotiating with a subsidiary of a large international pharmaceutical company who sells Azithromycin tablets sale worldwide for API. In addition to JCM's certification in India, along with other international clients located at Bangladesh, Philippines and Iran on import status, JCM plans for certification process in both the European Union and the United States in order to service international clients and their subsidiaries in China. JCM’s Drug Master File (DMF) will be prepared and submitted to the appropriate regulatory authority at the intended drug market. DMF provides the regulatory authority with confidential, detailed information about facilities, processes, or articles used in the manufacturing, processing, packaging, and storing of one or more drugs. In the United States, DMFs are submitted to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The Main Objective of the DMF is to support regulatory requirements and to prove the quality, safety and efficacy of the medicinal product for export application. These registration and certification processes are expected to support further demand for JCM's API products in both domestic and international markets.

 

Tianyin Medicine Trading Distribution Business (TMT)

 

TMT is established to distribute products manufactured by us and other pharmaceutical companies to fuel our expanding sales network as well as to provide synergy to our existing organic product portfolio. TMT has been distributing mainly our products since its inception in 2009. Since 2010, we have signed and later extended distribution contracts with Jiangsu Lianshui Pharmaceutical (“Lianshui”) to distribute Lianshui-branded generic injection products including cough suppressant, antibiotics, anti-inflammatory medicines and other healthcare indications.

 

Pre-extraction and formulation plant development at Qionglai Tianyin Facility (QLF)

 

In preparation for the new GMP standards stipulated by the government in early 2011, we initiated a process to optimize our manufacturing facilities and production lines in compliance with the new GMP standards. Under the guidance by provincial government, our facility is scheduled to be relocated to Qionglai County, south of Chengdu, which is designated for the pharmaceutical industry. Both the TCM pre-extraction plant and the formulation plant will be relocated to form a combined QLF, occupying an area of 80 mu (13 acres). The combined QLF, designed and constructed according to the latest GMP standards, is expected to relieve the current capacity saturation at the current facilities. The re-location cost for Phase I, which includes both the pre-extraction and formulation plant is estimated at $25 million, which is to improve the current capacity by 30-50%. In Phase II QLF, an additional $10 million may be invested to double the current capacity. QLF has successfully passed the GMP certification process (GMP certificate No.: SC20140067 valid through 2020) in early 2015. The relocation has been ongoing and coincided with the establishment of the joint venture, Qionglai Tianyin, in January 2015, while the assets of Chengdu Tianyin including the QLF were contributed to Qionglai Tianyin as Chengdu Tianyin’s capital contribution. (Please refer to the financial footnote 10 for more information.) 

 

As for the Company’s Longquan facility, according to the guidance by the local government, the Company may be involved in the development of the land according to the local zoning requirement after the relocation of the facility is completed. The Company has not yet formed any development plans of the land.

Joint Venture with Shandong Buchang

 

The Company had been contemplating a strategic alliance with Shandong Buchang, one of China's most elite pharmaceutical companies, to synergize and accelerate the growth of the Company, boosting the Company’s modernized traditional Chinese medicines (mTCM) franchise focusing on its cardiovascular revenue driver Gingko Mihuan (GMOL).  The alliance would integrate the Company’s portfolio drugs especially high margined core product portfolio with the possibility of integrating additional products beyond the current indication categories of cardiovascular, viral infection and immunology. After months’ of discussion and negotiation, on October 29, 2014, Chengdu Tianyin entered into an agreement with Shandong Buchang to establish a joint venture, Qionglai Tianyin. Following the execution of the agreement, Qionglai Tianyin was established on January 27, 2015. In November 2014 a Share Transfer Agreement was entered into, pursuant to which, after Chengdu Tianyin has completed the transfer of the Assets into Qionglai Tianyin, Chengdu Tianyin shall transfer 72% of Qionglai Tianyin’s stock to Shandong Buchang. The joint venture established by Chengdu Tianyin and Shandong Buchang will help the Company to focus their resources on sales expansion and market development and in the meanwhile to relieve the pressure in operating a manufacturing facility which has become increasingly cost driven.

 

Fiscal 2015 Guidance

 

The following factors, in our opinion, will influence the Company’s growth perspectives for fiscal year 2015:

 

  1) Market expansion and revenue growth of TPI’s core product portfolio led by flagship product GMOL and other major products;

 

  2) JCM revenue at both domestic and international markets in the fiscal year 2015;

 

  3) Generic sale stabilization and recovery along with our strategy to cope with pricing restrictions and market competition under the ongoing healthcare reform; and

  

  4) QLF GMP relocation and smooth transition of production capacity.  

 

We previously forecast the organic revenue growth for TPI to range 0-5% for the fiscal year 2015 as compared with the fiscal year 2014. The management is currently monitoring the relocation progress and the manufacturing capacity and efficiency maintenance and improvement at QLF to evaluate their effect on the Company’s operating results to update the guidance if necessary while any changes will be communicated on a quarterly basis or as when appropriate. 

 

Discussion on Operating Results

 

The following table shows the results of operations of our business. All references to the results of operations and financial conditions are on a consolidated basis that includes Chengdu Tianyin, TMT, JCM and HSP.

 

Comparison of results for the three and six months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013:

 

    Three Months Ended  
    December 31,     December 31,  
    2014     2013  
    (In $ millions)  
Sales     6.7       13.9  
Cost of sales     3.0       7.7  
Gross profit     3.7       6.2  
Income from Operation     0.3       2.5  
Provision for income taxes     0.1       0.7  
Net income     0.1       1.7  

 

   Six Months Ended 
   December 31,   December 31, 
   2014   2013 
   (In $ millions) 
Sales   16.4    28.7 
Cost of sales   7.7    16.5 
Gross profit   8.7    12.2 
Income from Operation   1.7    4.6 
Provision for income taxes   0.4    1.4 
Net income   1.1    3.2 

 

Sales for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 were $6.7 million as compared to $13.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. Sales for the six months ended December 31, 2014 were $16.4 million as compared to $28.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013. The sales decrease was a result of continuous pricing pressure and restrictive sales policies on generic products compared with the same period last year. The decrease was also a result of the relocation process of Company’s manufacturing facility from the previous Longquan location to the new QLF site.

 

14
 

 

Cost of Sales for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 was $3.0 million or 45% of sales, as compared to $7.7 million or 55% of sales for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. Cost of Sales for the six months ended December 31, 2014 was $7.7 million as compared to $16.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013. Our cost of sales primarily consists of the costs of direct raw materials (85% of the cost of goods sold) and production cost (15% of cost of goods sold). The percentage decrease in our cost of sales from the previous period was mainly attributable to a greater percentage of higher margin products and a decrease of our lower margin generic segment.

 

Gross Margin for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 was 55% as compared to 45% for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. Gross margin for the six months ended December 31, 2014 was 53% as compared to 43% for the six months ended December 31, 2013. As discussed above, our gross margin improved, predominately as a result of an increased higher margin products being sold during the period. We see the trend to continue for the rest of fiscal 2015.

 

Income from Operations was $0.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, as compared to $2.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. Income from Operations was $1.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $4.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013. The decrease of income from operations was mainly due to the R&D costs towards our cardiovascular portfolio centered on GMOL and the decrease of sales as a result of the relocation process discussed above.

 

Net Income was $0.1 million with net margin of 1.5% for the quarter ended December 31, 2014, as compared to net income of $1.7 million with net margin of 12% for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. Net income was $1.1 million with net margin of 7% for the six months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $3.2 million with net margin of 11% for the six months ended December 31, 2013. The decrease of net margins was primarily due to the GMOL R&D costs and the decrease of sales as a result of the relocation process discussed above.

 

Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment. Our reporting currency is the US dollar. We have evaluated the determination of its 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. We have conducted financings in U.S. dollars, paid operating expenses primarily in U.S. dollars, paid dividends to our shareholders of common stock and expect to receive any dividends that may be declared by our subsidiaries in U.S. dollars. Therefore, we have determined that our functional currency is the U.S. dollar based on the expense and financing indicators, in accordance with the guidance in ASC 830-10-85-5.  However, the functional currency of our indirectly owned operating subsidiary in China is Renminbi (RMB). Results of operations and cash flow are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate as quoted by the People’s Bank of China at the end of the period.  Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of shareholders’ equity.  Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

 

Currency translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statement of Comprehensive Income and amounted to $174,638 and $1,048,091 for the six months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The balance sheet amounts with the exception of equity as of December 31, 2014 were translated at 6.1463 RMB to 1.00 US dollar as compared to 6.1425 RMB to 1.00 US dollar as of December 31, 2013. The equity accounts were stated at their historical rate. The average translation rates applied to income statement accounts for the quarters ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were the average exchange rates during the periods.

Item 4.   Controls and Procedures

 

(a)           Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that material information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that the information is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We performed an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our management has concluded as of June 30, 2014 and as of December 31, 2014, due to the existence of material weaknesses, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and were not effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in such reports is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure 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 disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure 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.

 

(b)           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.
