NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 |
BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. | |
In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring accruals considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at January 31, 2010, the consolidated results of operations for the three months ended
January 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the period from September 25, 2002 (inception) to January 31, 2010 and consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended January 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the period from September 25, 2002 (inception) to January 31, 2010. The consolidated results for the three months ended January 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending October 31, 2010. These consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended October 31, 2009 appearing in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 12, 2010. | |
NOTE 2 |
ORGANIZATION |
Advanced BioMedical Technologies, Inc. (fka “Geostar Mineral Corporation” or “Geostar”) (“ABMT”) was incorporated in Nevada on September 12, 2006. | |
Shenzhen Changhua Biomedicine Engineering Company Limited (“Shenzhen Changhua”) was incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) on September 25, 2002 as a limited liability company with a registered capital of $724,017. Shenzhen Changhua is owned by two stockholders in the proportion
of 70% and 30% respectively. Shenzhen Changhua plans to develop, manufacture and market self-reinforced, re-absorbable degradable PA screws, robs and binding ties for fixation on human fractured bones. The Company is currently conducting clinical trials on its products and intends to raise additional capital to produce and market its products commercially pending the approval from the State Food and Drug Administration (“SFDA”) of the PRC on its products. The Company has no revenue since its inception
and, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 7, “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprise,” is considered a Development Stage Company. | |
Masterise Holdings Limited (“Masterise”) was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on May 31, 2007 as an investment holding company and was then owned as to 63% by the spouse of Shenzhen Changhua’s 70% majority stockholder at the time and 37% by a third party corporation. | |
On January 29, 2008, Masterise entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (“the Agreement”) with a stockholder of Shenzhen Changhua whereupon Masterise acquired 70% of Shenzhen Changhua for US$64,100 in cash. The acquisition was completed on February 25, 2008. As both Masterise and Shenzhen Changhua were under
common control and management, the acquisition was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control. Accordingly, the operations of Shenzhen Changhua for the three months ended January 31, 2010 and 2009 were included in the consolidated financial statements as if the transactions had occurred retroactively. | |
On December 31, 2008, ABMT consummated a Share Exchange Agreement (“the Exchange Agreement”) with the stockholders of Masterise pursuant to which ABMT issued 50,000 shares of Common Stock to the stockholders of Masterise for 100% equity interest
in Masterise. |
F-4
Concurrently, on December 31, 2008, a major stockholder of ABMT also consummated an Affiliate Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Affiliate Agreement”) with thirteen individuals including all the stockholders of Masterise, pursuant to which the major stockholder sold a total of 5,001,000
shares of ABMT’s common stock for a total aggregate consideration of $5,000, including 4,438,250 shares to the stockholders of Masterise. | |
On consummation of the Exchange Agreement and the Affiliate Agreement, the 70% majority stockholder of Masterise became a 80.7% stockholder of ABMT. | |
The merger of ABMT and Masterise was treated for accounting purposes as a capital transaction and recapitalization by Masterise (“the accounting acquirer”) and a re-organization by ABMT (“the accounting acquiree”). The financial statements have been prepared as if the re-organization had occurred
retroactively. | |
Accordingly, these financial statements include the following: | |
(1) The balance sheet consisting of the net assets of the acquirer at historical cost and the net assets of the acquiree at historical cost. | |
(2) The statement of operations including the operations of the acquirer for the periods presented and the operations of the acquiree from the date of the transaction. | |
ABMT, Masterise and Shenzhen Changhua are hereinafter referred to as (“the Company”) | |
NOTE 3 |
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION |
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of ABMT and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Masterise and its 70% owned subsidiary, Shenzhen Changhua. The noncontrolling interests represent the noncontrolling stockholders’ 30% proportionate share of the results of Shenzhen Changhua. | |
All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. | |
NOTE 4 |

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. The ASU requires disclosing the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2 fair value measurements and to describe the reasons for the transfers. The disclosures are effective for reporting periods
beginning after December 15, 2009. Additionally, disclosures of the gross purchases, sales, issuances and settlements activity in Level 3 fair value measurements will be required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-06 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. | |
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-01, Equity (Topic 505): Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that
allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on the amount of cash that will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260. Effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and would be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-01 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. | |
In October, 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-15, “Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance or Other Financing”, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 470 “Debt”, (“ASU 2009-15”), and provides guidance for accounting and reporting for own-share
lending arrangements issued in contemplation of a convertible debt issuance. At the date of issuance, a share-lending arrangement entered into on an entity’s own shares should be measured at fair value in accordance with Topic 820 and recognized as an issuance cost, with an offset to additional paid-in capital. Loaned shares are excluded from basic and diluted earnings per share unless default of the share-lending arrangement occurs. The amendments also require several disclosures
including a description and |
F-6
the terms of the arrangement and the reason for entering into the arrangement. The effective dates of the amendments are dependent upon the date the share-lending arrangement was entered into and include retrospective application for arrangements outstanding as of the beginning of fiscal years beginning on
or after December 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-15 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. | |
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-14, “Certain Arrangements That Include Software Elements, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 985, “Software”, (“ASU 2009-14”). ASU 2009-14 removes tangible products from the scope of software revenue guidance and provides guidance on determining
whether software deliverables in an arrangement that includes a tangible product are covered by the scope of the software revenue guidance. ASU 2009-14 should be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-14 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. | |
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements”, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, (“ASU 2009-13”). ASU 2009-13 requires entities to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered
goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy. The amendments eliminate the residual method of revenue allocation and require revenue to be allocated using the relative selling price method. ASU 2009-13 should be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU2009-13 to have a material effect on the financial position, results
of operations or cash flows of the Company. | |
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167 “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)” (“SFAS 167”) (not part of the codification yet). SFAS 167 amends FASB Interpretation No. 46 (Revised December 2003) “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities—an interpretation of ARB No. 51”
(FIN 46(R)) to require an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity; to require ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; to eliminate the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; to add an additional reconsideration event for determining whether
an entity is a variable interest entity when any changes in facts and circumstances occur such that holders of the equity investment at risk, as a group, lose the power from voting rights or similar rights of those investments to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance; and to require enhanced disclosures that will provide users of financial statements with more transparent information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest
entity. SFAS 167 will be effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Early adoption is not permitted. This guidance will be codified under FASB ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation” when it becomes effective. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s financial position. | |
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166 “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140” (“SFAS 166”) (ASC Topic 810). SFAS 166 (not part of the codification yet) amends various provisions of SFAS No. 140 “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing
of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 125” by removing the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity and removes the exception from applying FIN 46(R) to variable interest entities that are qualifying special-purpose entities; limits the circumstances in which a transferor derecognizes a portion or component of a financial asset; defines a participating interest; requires a transferor to recognize and initially measure at fair value all assets
obtained and liabilities incurred as a result of a transfer accounted for as a sale; and requires enhanced disclosure; among others. SFAS 166 will be effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Early adoption is not permitted. This guidance will be codified under FASB ASC Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing” |

when it becomes effective. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s financial position. | |
In December 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 132(R)-1 “Employers’ Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets” (“FSP FAS 132(R)-1”) (ASC Topic 715-20-65). FSP FAS 132(R)-1 (ASC Topic 715-20-65) requires more detailed disclosures about employers’ plan assets in a
defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan, including employers’ investment strategies, major categories of plan assets, concentrations of risk within plan assets, and inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets. FSP FAS 132(R)-1 (ASC Topic 715-20-65) also requires, for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), disclosure of the effect of the measurements on changes in plan assets for the period. The disclosures about plan assets
required by FSP FAS 132(R)-1 (ASC Topic 715-20-65) must be provided for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009. As this pronouncement is only disclosure-related, it will not have an impact on the financial position and results of operations. | |
NOTE 7 |
GOING CONCERN |
As reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $1,793,636 at January 31, 2010 that includes a net loss of $174,391 for the three months ended January 31, 2010. The Company’s total current liabilities exceed its total current assets
by $1,423,627 and the Company used cash in operations of $115,312. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. In view of the matters described above, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying condensed balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and succeed in its future operations. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. | |
Management has taken the following steps to revise its operating and financial requirements, which it believes are sufficient to provide the Company with the ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is actively pursuing additional funding and strategic partners, which will enable the Company to implement
its business plan. Management believes that these actions as successful will allow the Company to continue its operations through the next fiscal year. | |

Our Business
We are engaged in the business of designing, developing, manufacturing and the planned future marketing of self-reinforced, re-absorbable biodegradable internal fixation devices. Our polyamide materials are protected by Patent no. ZL97119073.9, PRC, issued by the Chinese Intellectual Property Rights Bureau, is used in
producing screws, binding wires, rods and related products. These products are used in a variety of applications which include orthopedic trauma, sports related medical treatment, or cartilage injuries. Our products are biodegradable internal fixation devices which are made of a very
unique material called Polyamide (“PA”). Our PA products, such as screws, rods, and binding wires consist of enhanced fibers and high molecular polymers which are designed to facilitate quick healing of complex fractures in many areas of the human skeletal system. Our products offer a number of significant
advantages over existing metal implants and the first generation of degradable implants (i.e. PLLA) for patients, surgeons and other customers including:
|
1. |
A notably reduced need for a secondary surgery to remove implant due to post-operative complications, therefore avoiding unnecessary risk and expense on all patient care; |
|
2. |
Enhancing the performance of the materials by manufacturing them to be easily fitted to each patient, forming an exact fit; |
|
3. |
Improving the biological activity of materials. Clinical trial results have shown that as PA implants degrade, they promote a progressive shift of load to the new bone creating micro-motion and thereby avoiding bone atrophy due to ‘stress shielding’ |
|
4. |
Reducing the chance of post-operative infection; |
|
5. |
Effectively controlling the degeneration speed, so that there will be no complications in treating repeat injuries; |
|
6. |
Ease of post-operative care i.e. no distortion during x-ray imaging; |
|
7. |
Simple and cost-effective to manufacture. |
Our products are designed to replace the traditional internal fixation device made of stainless steel and titanium and overcome the limitations of previous generations of products such as PLA and PLLA. Our laboratory statistics show that our PA products have a higher mechanical strength, last longer in degradation ratio
and are more evenly absorbed form outer layer inwards as compared with similar materials such as PLA and PLLA. Thus PA allows increased restoration time for bone healing and re-growth. The Company’s PA Degradable and Absorbable Screw (“PA Screw”) and Degradable and Absorbable Binding Wire (“PA Binding Wire) are currently being tested in human trials under permit from China’s State Food and Drug Administration (“SFDA”). The Company has completed 67 successful PA Screw
trial cases, and 53 successful PA Binding Wire. Upon the completion of these trials the company has already exceeded China SFDA’s requirement on PA Screw trial and is in the final preparation to apply for the China’s SFDA’s approval by completing a Post Clinical Trial Analysis. We will fine-tune our future R&D plans and marketing strategy based on the feedbacks received from attendees.
The cities and provinces where our clinical trial hospitals are based will be the initial target regions on our marketing plan. These regions are both densely populated and have experienced high or above medium economic growth. The Company intends to continuously perform clinical trials exceeding the requirement of 60
cases for further medical studies.
Process of Human Trials
As of January 31, 2010, for medical study and comparison purpose, the company has completed a total of 79 successful clinical human trial cases, including 67 cases on ankle fractures. Under SFDA Regulations, a total number of 60 cases must be completed before approval is considered. Amended SFDA regulations, unlike previous
regulations, require the applicant to specify the position on the body where the clinical trial is carried out. Our SFDA application has specified the ankle fracture as the body part of our clinical trial. This is because bones around this part carry most of the body weight. Currently, we have been conducting human trials at the 6 state level hospitals recognized by SFDA for clinical trials in different cities throughout China; including Nanchang, Changsha, Luoyang, Nanning and Tianjin.
The company anticipates that we can file immediately for the SFDA final approval by the fourth fiscal quarter of 2010. Furthermore, we can foresee that following the SFDA final approval, the company will be earning revenues as early as fourth quarter of 2010. The company is looking forward to starting the application
process for the PA Biding Wires with the SFDA by the end of 2010 provided sufficient funding is in place.
Additionally, the Company has signed a cooperative agreement with The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Pharmaceutical University in Guangzhou, China. Under this cooperative agreement, both parties will join efforts in conducting research and animal tests
on Cranio-Maxillofacial Fracture (CMF) Treatment utilizing the Company’s bio-absorbable miniscrews and plates. CMF surgery encompasses the treatment of the face, jaws and skull, including trauma and the correction of facial skeletal deformity. Since the 1980s, titanium plates and screws have been the most commonly used fixation devices in CMF surgery. However concerns of using titanium include bone growth restriction and implant migration through the cranium in children. Also adult patients complain about
feeling the metal implants, particularly in cold weather or through thin skin. We believe that utilizing our bio-absorbable mini-screws and plates in CMF surgery will eliminate the problems associated with other treatment types.
There can be no assurance that the company will be able to obtain any further clearances or approvals, if required, to market its products for their intended uses on a timely basis, if at all. Moreover, regulatory approvals, if granted, may include significant limitations on the indicated uses for which a product may
be marketed. Delays in the receipt of or the failure to obtain such clearances or approvals, the need for additional clearances or approvals, the loss of previously received clearances or approvals, unfavorable limitations or conditions of approval, or the failure to comply with existing or future regulatory requirements could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
Medical implant devices/products manufactured or marketed by the company in China are subject to extensive regulations by the SFDA. Pursuant to the related laws and acts, as amended, and the regulations promulgated there under (the “SFDA Regulations”), the SFDA regulates the clinical testing, manufacture,
labeling, distribution and promotion of medical devices. The SFDA also has the authority to request repair, replacement, or refund of the cost of any device manufactured or distributed by the Company.
Under the SFDA Regulations, medical devices are classified into three classes (class I, II or III), the basis of the controls deemed necessary by the SFDA to reasonably assure their safety and efficacy. Under the SFDA’s regulations, class I devices are subject to general controls [for example, labeling and adherence
to Good Manufacturing Practices (“GMP”) requirements] and class II devices are subject to general and special controls. Generally, class III devices are those which must receive premarket approval by the SFDA to ensure their safety and efficacy (for example, life-sustaining, life-supporting and certain implantable devices, or new devices which have not been found substantially equivalent to legally marketed class I or class II devices). The Company is classified as a manufacturer of class III medical
devices. Current SFDA enforcement policy prohibits the marketing of approved medical devices for unapproved uses.
Before a new device can be introduced into the market in China, the manufacturer generally must obtain SFDA marketing clearance through clinical trials. Since the company is classified as a manufacturer of Class III medical devices, the company must carry out all clinical trials in pre-selected SFDA approved
hospitals.
Manufacturers of medical devices for marketing in China are required to adhere to GMP requirements. Enforcement of GMP requirements has increased significantly in the last several years and the SFDA has publicly stated that compliance will be more strictly scrutinized. From time to time the SFDA has made changes to the
GMP and other requirements that increase the cost of compliance. Changes in existing laws or requirements or adoption of new laws or requirements could have a material adverse effect on the company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that the company will not incur significant costs to comply with applicable laws and requirements in the future or that applicable laws and requirements will not have a material adverse effect upon the company’s business,
financial condition and results of operations.
Regulations regarding the development, manufacturing and sale of the company’s products are subject to change. The company cannot predict the impact, if any, that such changes might have on its business, financial condition and results of operations.
Results of Operations
The “Results of Operations” discussed in this section merely reflect the information and results of the Company for the period from September 25, 2002 (Shenzhen Changhua’s date of inception) to January 31, 2010.
Revenues
The Company is in its development stage and does not have any revenue. The management team is continuously looking for fundraising possibilities for product improvement, machinery upgrades, facility expansions, continuous research and development, and sales and marketing preparation.
Our facility is located in Shenzhen, China which is built to meet the GMP standards. Our facility covers about 865 square meters, which includes the combined facilities of offices, laboratories, and workshops. There is one production line for the PA Screw and another production line for the PA Binding Wire. The annual
production capabilities of each production line are 100,000 pieces for PA Screw, and 240,000 packs for the PA Binding Wires. Both production lines, at their maximum production capacity, is capable of generating approximately USD $24,000,000 in annual revenue.

The Company will market its products through a hybrid sales force comprised of a managed network of independent regional distributors/sales agents (80%) and direct sales representatives (20%) in China.
There are two ways the company will generate revenue, 1) through our nationwide and regional distributors and 2) through our direct sales channels.
Marketing and Sales Goals:
1) Fourth quarter of 2010: forecasted revenue of $677,600; Distribution of our product in approximately 50 hospitals immediately following SFDA approval.
2) First quarter of 2011: forecasted revenue of $931,920; Distribution of our product in approximately 78 hospitals.
3) Second quarter of 2011: forecasted revenue of $1,332,140; Distribution of our product in approximately 126 hospitals.
4) Third quarter of 2011: forecasted revenue of $2,596,560; Distribution of our product in approximately 210 hospitals.
In general, we estimate that the Company will distribute product to a total of 356 hospitals and expect to generate total revenues of $677,600 in the year 2010 and $8,883,490 in 2011. In addition, we expected to have positive earning in the third quarter of 2011. We also expect a continuous increase of affiliated
hospitals and anticipate large increases in revenue due to marketing results of the PA Screw in China and the utilization of the Company’s secured funding to bring the remaining family of self-reinforced, re-absorbable PA products to market.
China’s Marketing Analysis and Sales Strategy:
We have established long term relationships with many hospitals and national distributors in China. Ms. WANG Hui, the Company’s CEO, has over 20 years sales experience in medical distribution. She will be in charge of our sales programs. Professor LIU, Shangli, our chief medical advisor, is one of the highest ranked
orthopedic doctors in China as well as being highly renowned in the rest of the world. He will assist the Company in nationwide product promotion and joint projects with associated academic institutions and medical schools.
During product development and clinical trial stages we developed close relationships with many major national hospitals. We expect these relationships to boost our revenue generation following SFDA final approval. In order to better serve our customers, including hospitals, distributors, patients and the general public,
the Company will set up Regional Service Offices to provide technical support, product information, and customer aid service.
China’s market for PA devices depends on 3 major conditions:
- Patients
- Advanced technology level
- Performance and price of the materials
The demand for internal fixation medical devices has rapidly increased during the last decade. Total market sales have increased more than 15% each year. There are over 1 million bone fractures in patients in China requiring about 4 million bone bolts/screws each year. Research shows that in the next 10 years, China will
have a booming aging population and the population in China will continue to increase. New and improved medical technology will continue to rapidly grow throughout hospitals in China, and material optimization and product pricing is expected to directly stimulate increased sales.
The Company has advantages and more opportunities over others competitors due to:
- No other similar patent registrations in China.
- We are the only company qualified and permitted to perform PA clinical trials by SFDA
- We have a timing advantage over other companies in China which would have to go through the preclinical testing for the SFDA permit on clinical trials.
- Under existing regulations by SFDA, it will take at least 3-5 years for clinical trials.

By the end of year 2011, we anticipate that there will be over 356 hospitals carrying our products, an increase of 86% from previous year. By the end of year 2017, we estimate that our products will reach over 1500 hospitals. Based on the estimated sales figures for one single product, PA Screw, the Company’s projected
annual revenue in 2017 would be $64,800,000.
In general, technological advancements and the marketing potential within Asia are the biggest factors in driving significant growth within the global orthopedic devices market. Another major factor that positively influences this market is the growing number of aging baby boomers with active lifestyles. This sector represents
a large portion of the total population.
Research and Development
There is substantial research and development (R&D) activity in the market indicating a favorable growth trend. While revenues for active lifestyle participants registered a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.4 percent for the period 2002-2006; R&D expenditure for the same period recorded a higher growth
of 18.4 percent. Increasing R&D expenditure is considered a key indicator of the future direction of the orthopedic market as it points to sustained technological development and innovation.
The Company believes that Asia holds tremendous growth potential for orthopedic device manufacturers due to its fundamental population advantage. Asia accounts for more than 50 percent of the population in the world, but its share of the global orthopedic devices market is comparatively low at approximately 10 percent.
Within the region, Japan contributes to a majority of market revenues, indicating large potential for growth in relatively under-penetrated countries such as China and India.
In future periods, we expect research and development expenses to grow as we continue to invest in basic research, clinical trials, product development and in our intellectual property.
Finance Costs
As of January 31, 2010, a stockholder and two related parties had loaned a total of $842,851 to the Company as unsecured loans repayable on demand and interest is charged at 7% per annum on the amount due. Total interest expenses on advances from a stockholder and the related parties accrued for the three months ended
January 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the period from September 25, 2002 (inception) through January 31, 2010 are $12,831, $5,117and $53,954 respectively.
As of January 31, 2010, the Company owed $592,935 to the directors and a related company for advances made on an unsecured basis, repayable on demand. Total imputed interest expenses, calculated at 5% per annum, recorded as additional paid-in capital amounted to $7,388, $8,056 and $156,116 for the three months ended January
31, 2010 and 2009 and for the period from September 25, 2002 (inception) through January 31, 2010, respectively.

Net Loss
The net loss for the three months ended January 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the period from September 25, 2002 (inception) through January 31, 2010 are $174,391, $129,189 and $1,793,636 respectively. We do not have any revenue from inception to January 31, 2010 but have to incur operating expenses for the upkeep of the
Company and the clinical trials.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We had a working capital deficit of $1,423,627 as of January 31, 2010 compared to a working capital deficit of $1,332,845 as of October 31, 2009. Our working capital deficit increased as a result of the fact that we are in Clinical Trial phase and do not have a SFDA permit to produce, market or sell in China. We had no
revenues during the period and that our sole source of financing are loans from our related parties and stockholders.
Cash Flows
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities.
Net cash used in operating activities was $115,312 in the three months ended January 31, 2010. This amount was attributable primarily to the net loss after adjustment for non-cash items, such as depreciation, imputed interest on advances from a stockholder and a related party, and others like decrease in other receivables
and prepaid expenses.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities.
We recorded $3,623 net cash used in investing activities in the three months ended January 31, 2010. This amount reflected purchases of property and equipment, primarily for research and development to our facilities.
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities.
Net cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended January 31, 2010 was $137,561, which represented advances from related parties and proceeds from issuance of 23,334 shares for private placement.
Operating Capital and Capital Expenditure Requirements
Our ability to continue as a going concern and support the commercialization of current products is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional financing in the near term. We anticipate that such funding will be in the form of equity financing from sales of our common stock. However, there is no assurance that we
will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund our business plan should we decide to proceed. We anticipate continuing to rely on advances from our related parties and stockholders in order to continue to fund our business operations
We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents at January 31, 2010, will be insufficient to meet our cash needs. The management is actively pursuing additional funding and strategic partners, which will enable the Company to implement our business plan, business strategy, to continue research and development,
clinical trials or further development that may arise.
We intend to spend more to support the commercialization of current products and on research and development activities, including new products development, regulatory and compliance, clinical studies, and the enhancement and protection of our intellectual property portfolio.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our investors.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including but not limited to those related
to income taxes and impairment of long-lived assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions and factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources. Based on our ongoing review, we plan to adjust to our judgments and estimates where facts and circumstances dictate. Actual results could differ from our estimates.
We believe the following critical accounting policies are important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results and require our management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.
|
1. |
Property and equipment |
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for additions, major renewals and betterments are capitalized and expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis, less estimated residual value over the assets estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives of the assets are 5 years.
|
2. |
Long-lived assets |
In accordance with FASB Codification Topic 360 (ASC Topic 360), “Accounting for the impairment or disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. For purposes of evaluating the recoverability of long-lived assets, the recoverability test is performed using undiscounted net cash flows related to the long- lived assets. The Company reviews long-lived assets to determine that carrying values are not impaired.
|
3. |
Fair value of financial instruments |
FASB Codification Topic 825(ASC Topic 825), “Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. The carrying amounts of other receivables and prepaid expenses, due from related parties, other payables and accrued liabilities
and due to related parties approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of the instruments. The management of the Company is of the opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial statements.
|
4. |
Government grant |
Government grant represents a subsidy from the local government and is unconditional. The Company recognizes the grant upon receipt from the local government and is accounted for as an offset of research and development expenses.
|
5. |
Income taxes |
The Company accounts for income taxes under the FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”). Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities
and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as income in the period
included the enactment date.
|
6. |
Research and Development |
Research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed as incurred.
|
7. |
Foreign currency translation |
The financial statements of the Company’s subsidiary denominated in currencies other than US $ are translated into US $ using the closing rate method. The balance sheet items are translated into US $ using the exchange rates at the respective balance sheet dates. The capital and various reserves
are translated at historical exchange rates prevailing at the time of the transactions while income and expenses items are translated at the average exchange rate for the year. All exchange differences are recorded within equity.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. The ASU requires disclosing the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2 fair value measurements and to describe the reasons for the transfers. The disclosures are effective for reporting periods
beginning after December 15, 2009. Additionally, disclosures of the gross purchases, sales, issuances and settlements activity in Level 3 fair value measurements will be required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-06 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-01, Equity (Topic 505): Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders
that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on the amount of cash that will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260. Effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and would be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-01 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In October, 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-15, “Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance or Other Financing”, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 470 “Debt”, (“ASU 2009-15”), and provides guidance for accounting and reporting for own-share
lending arrangements issued in contemplation of a convertible debt issuance. At the date of issuance, a share-lending arrangement entered into on an entity’s own shares should be measured at fair value in accordance with Topic 820 and recognized as an issuance cost, with an offset to additional paid-in capital. Loaned shares are excluded from basic and diluted earnings per share unless default of the share-lending arrangement occurs. The amendments also require several disclosures
including a description
and the terms of the arrangement and the reason for entering into the arrangement. The effective dates of the amendments are dependent upon the date the share-lending arrangement was entered into and include retrospective application for arrangements outstanding as of the beginning of fiscal years beginning
on or after December 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-15 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-14, “Certain Arrangements That Include Software Elements, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 985, “Software”, (“ASU 2009-14”). ASU 2009-14 removes tangible products from the scope of software revenue guidance and provides guidance on determining
whether software deliverables in an arrangement that includes a tangible product are covered by the scope of the software revenue guidance. ASU 2009-14 should be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-14 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements”, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, (“ASU 2009-13”). ASU 2009-13 requires entities to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered
goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy. The amendments eliminate the residual method of revenue allocation and require revenue to be allocated using the relative selling price method. ASU 2009-13 should be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU2009-13 to have a material effect on the financial position, results
of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167 “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)” (“SFAS 167”) (not part of the codification yet). SFAS 167 amends FASB Interpretation No. 46 (Revised December 2003) “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities—an interpretation of ARB No. 51”
(FIN 46(R)) to require an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity; to require ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; to eliminate the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; to add an additional reconsideration event for determining whether
an entity is a variable interest entity when any changes in facts and circumstances occur such that holders of the equity investment at risk, as a group, lose the power from voting rights or similar rights of those investments to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance; and to require enhanced disclosures that will provide users of financial statements with more transparent information about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest
entity. SFAS 167 will be effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Early adoption is not permitted. This guidance will be codified under FASB ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation” when it becomes effective. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s financial position.
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166 “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140” (“SFAS 166”) (ASC Topic 810). SFAS 166 (not
part of the codification yet) amends various provisions of SFAS No. 140 “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 125” by removing the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity and removes the exception from
applying FIN 46(R) to variable interest entities that are qualifying special-purpose entities; limits the circumstances in which a transferor derecognizes a portion or component of a financial asset; defines a participating interest; requires a transferor to recognize and initially measure at fair value all assets obtained and liabilities incurred as a result of a transfer accounted for as a sale; and requires enhanced disclosure;among others. SFAS 166 will be effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s
first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Early adoption is not permitted. This guidance will be codified under FASB ASC Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing” when it becomes effective. The Company does not expect the standard to have any impact on the Company’s financial position.
In December 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 132(R)-1 “Employers’ Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets” (“FSP FAS 132(R)-1”) (ASC Topic 715-20-65). FSP FAS 132(R)-1 (ASC Topic 715-20-65) requires more detailed disclosures about employers’ plan assets in
a defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan, including employers’ investment strategies, major categories of plan assets, concentrations of risk within plan assets, and inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets. FSP FAS 132(R)-1 (ASC Topic 715-20-65) also requires, for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), disclosure of the effect of the measurements on changes in plan assets for the period. The disclosures about plan assets
required by FSP FAS 132(R)-1 (ASC Topic 715-20-65) must be provided for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009. As this pronouncement is only disclosure-related, it will not have an impact on the financial position and results of operations.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the

Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating to our company, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared.
Additionally, there were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the evaluation date. We have not identified any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal controls, and therefore there were no corrective
actions taken.
