NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization and Nature of Operations – China Pharma Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), owns 100% of Onny Investment Limited (“Onny”), a British Virgin Islands corporation, which owns 100% of Hainan Helpson Medical & Biotechnology Co., Ltd (“Helpson”), a company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). China Pharma Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries are referred to herein as the Company.

Onny acquired 100% of the ownership in Helpson on May 25, 2005, by entering into an Equity Transfer Agreement with Helpson’s three former shareholders. The transaction was approved by the Commercial Bureau of Hainan Province on June 12, 2005 and Helpson received the Certificate of Approval for Establishment of Enterprises with Foreign Investment in the PRC on the same day. Helpson received its business license evidencing its Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprise (“WFOE”) status on June 21, 2005.

Helpson is principally engaged in the development, manufacture and marketing of pharmaceutical products for human use in connection with a variety of high-incidence and high-mortality diseases and medical conditions prevalent in the PRC. All of its operations are conducted in the PRC, where its manufacturing facilities are located. Helpson manufactures pharmaceutical products in the form of dry powder injectables, liquid injectables, tablets, capsules, and cephalosporin oral solutions. The majority of its pharmaceutical products are sold on a prescription basis and all have been approved for at least one or more therapeutic indications by the National Medical Products Administration (the “NMPA”, formerly China Food and Drug Administration, or CFDA) based upon demonstrated safety and efficacy.

Liquidity and Going Concern

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1.8 million and an accumulated deficit of $30.4 million. The Company’s Chairperson, Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer has advanced an aggregate of $1,469,452 at June 30, 2021 to provide working capital and enable the Company to make the required payments related to its construction loan facility. The Company anticipates operating losses to continue for the foreseeable future due to, among other things, costs related to the production of its existing products, debt service costs and costs of selling and administrative costs. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. To alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, management plans to enhance the sales model of advance payment, and further strengthen its collection of accounts receivable. Further, the Company is currently exploring strategic alternatives to accelerate the launch of nutrition products. In addition, management believes that the Company’s existing fixed assets can serve as collateral to support additional bank loans. While the current plans will allow the Company to fund its operations in the next twelve months, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve its future strategic alternatives raising substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

Pursuant to the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 205-40, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern management must evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. This evaluation initially does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the financial statements are issued. When substantial doubt exists under this methodology, management evaluates whether the mitigating effect of its plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of management’s plans, however, is only considered if both (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued, and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.

Under ASC 205-40, the strategic alternatives being pursued by the Company cannot be considered probable at this time because none of the Company’s current plans have been finalized at the time of the issuance of these financial statements and the implementation of any such plan is not probable of being effectively implemented as none of the plans are entirely within the Company’s control. Accordingly, substantial doubt is deemed to exist about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these financial statements are issued.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of the uncertainties described above.

Consolidation and Basis of Presentation – The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are expressed in United States dollars. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company including its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

Helpson’s functional currency is the Chinese Renminbi. Helpson’s revenue and expenses are translated into United States dollars at the average exchange rate for the period. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate as of the end of the reporting period. Gains or losses from translating Helpson’s financial statements are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a component of stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity that is party to the transaction are included in the results of operations.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated on consolidation. However, the results of operations included in such financial statements may not necessary be indicative of annual results. Such financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 26, 2021 (“2020 Annual Report”).

Accounting Estimates - The methodology used to prepare the Company’s financial statements is in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires the management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company uses the same accounting policies in preparing its quarterly and annual financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted.

Reclassification – Certain amounts in the prior period presented have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. There was no impact on previously reported assets, net income or total cash flows.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), which introduces new guidance for the accounting for credit losses on instruments within its scope. The new guidance introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. It also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale (AFS) debt securities and provides for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. The pronouncement will be effective for public business entities that are SEC smaller reporting company filers in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application of the guidance will be permitted for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on its financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The amendment simplifies the accounting for income taxes by eliminating some exceptions to the general approach in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, Income Taxes. It also clarifies certain aspects of the existing guidance to promote more consistent application, among other things. The guidance was implemented January 1, 2021 and there was no impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

From time to time, the FASB or other standards setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB ASC are communicated through issuance of ASUs. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the recently issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted in the future, is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

NOTE 2 – INVENTORY

Inventory consisted of the following:

NOTE 3 – PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

Property, plant and equipment consisted of the following:

Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Depreciation relating to office equipment was included in general and administrative expenses, while all other depreciation was included in cost of revenue. Depreciation expense was $690,943 and $640,473 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively and $1,381,650 and $1,287,586 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

NOTE 4 - INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets represent the cost of medical formulas approved for production by the NMPA. The Company did not obtain NMPA production approval for any new medical formulas during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 and no costs were reclassified from advances to intangible assets during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Approved medical formulas are amortized from the date NMPA approval is obtained over their individually identifiable estimated useful life, which range from ten to thirteen years.  It is at least reasonably possible that a change in the estimated useful lives of the medical formulas could occur in the near term due to changes in the demand for the drugs and medicines produced from these medical formulas. Amortization expense relating to intangible assets was $9,517 and $8,676 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively and $18,997 and $17,484 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively which was included in the general and administrative expenses. Medical formulas typically do not have a residual value at the end of their amortization period.

The Company evaluates each approved medical formula for impairment at the date of NMPA approval, when indications of impairment are present and also at the date of each financial statement. The Company’s evaluation is based on an estimated undiscounted net cash flow model, which considers currently available market data for the related drug and the Company’s estimated market share. If the carrying value of the medical formula exceeds the estimated future net cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the medical formula, which is determined by the estimated discounted future net cash flows. No impairment loss was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Intangible assets consisted solely of NMPA approved medical formulas as follows:

Principal payments required for the remaining terms of the loan facility and lines of credit as of June 30, 2021 are as follows:

Fair Value of Construction Loan Facility – Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for bank loans with similar terms and maturities, the carrying amounts of the construction loan facility outstanding as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 approximated its fair value because the underlying instrument bears an interest rate that approximated current market rates. 

NOTE 9 - LEASES

The Company has leases for certain office and production facilities in the PRC which are classified as operating leases. The leases contain payment terms for fixed amounts. Options to extend are recognized as part of the lease liabilities and recognized as right to use assets when management estimates to renew the lease. There are no residual value guarantees, no variable lease payments, and no restrictions or covenants imposed by leases. The discount rate used in measuring the lease liabilities and right of use assets was determined by reviewing the Company’s incremental borrowing rate at the initial measurement date. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, operating lease cost was $24,793 and $22,265, respectively and cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities for operating cash flows from operating leases was $26,352 and $23,665, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, operating lease cost was $48,760 and $44,494, respectively and cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities for operating cash flows from operating leases was $51,827 and $49,376, respectively. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company reported operating lease right of use assets of $169,807 and $49,687, respectively and operating use liabilities of $169,893 and $52,070, respectively. As of June 30, 2021, its operating leases had a weighted average remaining lease term of 1.98 years and a weighted average discount rate of 4.75%.

Minimum lease payments for the Company’s operating lease liabilities were as follows for the twelve month periods ended June 30:

The Company has leases with terms less than one year for certain provincial sales offices that are not material.

NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax laws or rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Liabilities are established for uncertain tax positions expected to be taken in income tax returns when such positions are judged to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold based on the technical merits of the positions. Estimated interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are included as a component of other expenses. Through December 31, 2020, the Company has not identified any uncertain tax positions that it has taken. U.S. income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2017 through December 31, 2020 and the Chinese income tax return for the year ended December 31, 2020 are open for possible examination.

Under the current tax law in the PRC, the Company is and will be subject to the enterprise income tax rate of 25%.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2021 AND 2020 (UNAUDITED)

There was no provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively due to continued net losses of the Company.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for PRC tax purposes of approximately $39.8 million which are available to offset any future taxable income through 2026. Approximately $20.2 million of these carryforwards will expire in December 2021. The Company also has net operating losses for United States federal income tax purposes of approximately $7.0 million of which $5.1 million are available to offset future taxable income, if any, through 2039, and $1.9 million are available for carryforward indefinitely subject to a limitation of 80% of taxable income for each tax year.

U.S. federal tax legislation, commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “U.S. Tax Reform”), was signed into law on December 22, 2017. The U.S. Tax Reform significantly modified the U.S. Internal Revenue Code by, among other things, reducing the statutory U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017; limiting and/or eliminating many business deductions; migrating the U.S. to a territorial tax system with a one-time transition tax on a mandatory deemed repatriation of previously deferred foreign earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries; subject to certain limitations, generally eliminating U.S. corporate income tax on dividends from foreign subsidiaries; and providing for new taxes on certain foreign earnings.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those differences become deductible or tax loss carry forwards are utilized.  Management considers projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.  Based upon an assessment of the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods on which the deferred tax assets are deductible or can be utilized, management believes it is not likely for the Company to realize all benefits of the deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.  Therefore, the Company provided for a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets of $28,315,151 and $27,666,557 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

The Company also incurred various other taxes, comprised primarily of business taxes, value-added taxes, urban construction taxes, education surcharges and others. Any unpaid amounts are reflected on the balance sheets as accrued taxes payable.

NOTE 11 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. To measure fair value, a hierarchy has been established which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. This hierarchy uses three levels of inputs to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities as follows: Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in less active markets, or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; and Level 3 – Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity for financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

The Company uses fair value to measure the value of the banker’s acceptance notes it holds at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The banker’s acceptance notes are recorded at cost which approximates fair value.  The Company held the following assets and liabilities recorded at fair value:

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2021 AND 2020 (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 14 – RISKS & UNCERTAINTIES

Current vulnerability due to certain concentrations

For the six months ended June 30, 2021, no customer accounted for more than 10% of sales and three customers accounted for 52.3%, 11.3% and 10.3% of accounts receivable. Two suppliers accounted for 37.8% and 13.9% of raw material purchases, and three different products accounted for 30.1%, 20.2% and 12.7% of revenue.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, one customer accounted for 30.7% of sales and two customers respectively accounted for 49.8% and 10.7% of accounts receivable. Two suppliers respectively accounted for 39.0% and 18.6% of raw material purchases, and three different products respectively accounted for 30.8%, 21.4% and 13.9% of revenue.

Nature of Operations

Impact from the New Coronavirus Global Pandemic (“COVID-19”) - The current outbreak of COVID-19 since the first quarter 2020 had a material and adverse effect on the Company’s business operations. These included, but are not limited to, disruptions or restrictions on its ability to travel or to distribute its products, as well as temporary closures of its facilities or the facilities of the suppliers or customers. Through strict prevention and quarantine measures, China has effectively controlled the COVID-19 outbreak and returned to normal production and social life in an orderly manner. However, due to the deterioration of this pandemic in other countries, such as India, we still need to be on high alert on any potential risks. Any disruption or delay of the Company’s suppliers or customers in the future would likely impact its sales and operating results. In addition, COVID-19 has resulted in a widespread health crisis that could continue to adversely affect the economies and financial markets of China and many other countries, resulting in an economic downturn that could significantly impact our operating results.

Economic environment - Substantially all of the Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC, and therefore the Company is subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies operating in the United States of America. These risks include, among others, the political, economic and legal environments and fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rate. The Company’s results from operations may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and 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. The unfavorable changes in global macroeconomic factors may also adversely affect the Company’s operations.

In addition, all of the Company’s revenue is denominated in the PRC’s currency of Renminbi (RMB), which must be converted into other currencies before remittance out of the PRC. Both the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of foreign currencies abroad require approval of the PRC government.

Business Overview & Recent Developments

We are principally engaged in the development, manufacture and marketing of pharmaceutical products for human use in connection with a variety of high-incidence and high-mortality diseases and medical conditions prevalent in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). All of our operations are conducted in the PRC, where our manufacturing facilities are located. We manufacture pharmaceutical products in the form of dry powder injectables, liquid injectables, tablets, capsules, and cephalosporin oral solutions. The majority of our pharmaceutical products are sold on a prescription basis and all have been approved for at least one or more therapeutic indications by the National Medical Products Administration (the “NMPA”, formerly China Food and Drug Administration, or CFDA) based upon demonstrated safety and efficacy.

China’s consistency evaluation of generic drugs had continued to proceed in the second quarter of 2021. The supporting policies from central and provincial governments have been constantly issued, including polices regarding consistency evaluation for injectable products. We have always taken the task of facilitating the consistency evaluation as our top priority, and worked on them actively. However, due to the continuous dynamic changes of the detailed policies, future market, expected investment, and return of investment (“ROI”) for each drug’s consistency evaluation, the whole industry, including us, has been making slow progress in terms of the consistency evaluation. We have a product that passed biological equivalents experiments of consistency evaluation in March 2021. We plan to submit application documents to NMPA in the near future.

We have taken a more cautious and flexible attitude towards the initiating and progressing of an existing product’s consistency evaluation and to cope with the changing macro environment of drug sales in China. On the one hand, since “4 + 7” (refers to 11 selected pilot cities, including 4 municipalities and 7 other cities) trial Centralized Procurement (“CP”) activities initiated in 2018, five rounds of CP activities had been carried out by June 2021, which significantly reduced the price of the drugs that won the bids. On the other hand, the consistency evaluation has been adopted as one of the qualification standards for participating in the CP activities. As a result, we need to balance at least the two factors above before making decisions for any products.

In addition, we continue to explore in the field of comprehensive healthcare. Comprehensive healthcare is a general concept proposed according to the development of the times, social needs and changes in disease spectrum. According to the Outline of “Healthy China 2030” issued by Chinese government in October 2016, the total size of China’s health service industry will reach more than RMB 8 trillion by 2020 and RMB 16 trillion by 2030. This industry focuses on people’s daily life, aging and disease, pays attention to all kinds of risk factors and misunderstandings affecting health, and calls for self-health management, and advocates the comprehensive care of the entire process of life. It covers all kinds of health-related information, products and services, as well as actions taken by various organizations to meet the health needs. We launched Noni enzyme, a natural, Xeronine-rich antioxidant food supplement at the end of 2018, and wash-free sanitizer and masks in 2020 to address the market needs caused by COVID-19 in China. The impact of COVID-19 has continued. Masks and sanitizers have become long-time anti-epidemic materials. We have sufficient production capacity of medical masks, surgical masks and KN95 masks, which meets the personal needs for protection against the epidemic outbreak.

We will continue to optimize our product structure and actively respond to the current health needs of human beings.

Market Trends

As a generic drug company we are presented with a huge domestic market. We believe that through further upgrades and consistency evaluations, we will be able to meet the European and American production standards, which will enable us to export our products to overseas markets. In the future, cost management and control ability will gradually become an important factor in determining the competitiveness of generic pharmaceutical enterprises. Although price control leads to a decline in the profitability, the winning enterprises in centralized procurement have a good chance of achieving price-for-volume in order to increase its market share and support its continuous innovation transformation. As a separate note, consumption upgrading in China drives the increase of optional consumption. With the improvement of residents’ quality of life, the healthcare demand is also changing. We believe that there are a large number of unmet demands in comprehensive healthcare and Internet healthcare sectors.

In addition, the Office of the State Council issued “Pilot Plan for Marketing Authorization Holders” on May 24, 2016, allowing eligible drug research and development institutions and scientific researchers to become Marketing Authorization Holders (“MAH”) by obtaining drug marketing authorization and drug approval numbers from the State Council. This policy uses a management model of separating drug marketing authorization and drug production licenses, thereby allowing an MAH to produce pharmaceuticals itself or to consign production to other pharmaceutical manufacturers. This policy not only transitions our production practices to meet the European and United States standards by separating drug approval and production qualifications, and therefore changing the existing model of bundling drug approval numbers to pharmaceutical manufacturers in China, but also serves as a supplement to the ongoing consistency evaluations policy.

In general, demand for pharmaceutical products is still experiencing steady growth in China. We believe the ongoing generic drug consistency evaluations and reform of China’s drug production registration and review policies will have major effects on the future development of our industry and may change its business patterns. We will continue to actively adapt to the national policy guidance and further evaluate market conditions for our existing products, and competition in the market in order to optimize our development strategy.

Results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2021

Revenue

Revenue decreased by 35.9% to $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. This decrease was mainly due to a one-time foreign trade of COVID-19 testers that contributed approximately $1.7 million to our revenue in the second quarter of 2020, while we did not have similar kind of income in the quarter ended June 30, 2021.

Set forth below are our revenues by product category in millions (USD) for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, excluding the one-time revenue from the trading of COVID-19 testers during such period:

The most significant revenue increase in terms of dollar amount was in our “CNS Cerebral & Cardio Vascular” product category which generated $0.89 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021, which represented an increase of $0.32 million as compared to $0.57 million in the three months ended June 30, 2020. This increase was mainly due to the increase in sales of Candesartan.

“Anti-Viral/ Infection & Respiratory” product category, generated $1.10 million in sales revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $0.95 million for the same period a year ago, which represented an increase of $0.15 million. This increase was mainly due to the sales of Cefaclor Dispersible Tablets.

“Others” product category generated $0.33 million in sales revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $0.48 million for the same period a year ago, which represented a decrease of $0.15 million. This decrease was mainly due to the decrease in sales of medical protection products. As COVID-19 has been effectively controlled in China during the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the demand for protective materials has dropped.

Our “Digestive Diseases” product category generated $0.09 million and $0.10 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, revenue breakdown by product category showed a few changes to that of the same period in 2020. Sales of the “Anti-Viral/Infection & Respiratory” products category represented both 45% of total sales in the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The “CNS Cerebral & Cardio Vascular” product category represented 37% and 27% of total revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The “Digestive Diseases” product category represented 4% and 5% of total revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The “Other” product category represented 14% and 23% of revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. 

Cost of Revenue

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, our cost of revenue was $2.3 million, or 97% of total revenue, comparing to $2.6 million, or 70% of total revenue, for the same period in 2020. The decrease in cost of revenue was mainly due to the decrease in the sales price of some products that are part of a centralized procurement, and the increase in the price of some raw materials and overall packaging materials that meet the heightened environmental standards issued by the government. The increased percentage of cost to revenue was mainly due to (a) the impact of foreign trade of COVID-19 testers happened in the second quarter of 2020, which has a higher margin, and (b) impact of higher costs on pharmaceuticals.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $0.07 million, as compared to $1.15 million during the same period in 2020. Our gross profit margin in the three months ended June 30, 2021 was 2.9% as compared to 30.5% during the same period in 2020. The decrease in our gross profit margin was a result of the foreign trade of COVID-19 testers we completed in the second quarter of 2020, which has a higher margin; in addition, we had experienced selling price drop of some major products in this period.

Selling Expenses

Our selling expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $0.4 million and $0.7 million, respectively. Selling expenses accounted for 18.4% of the total revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to 19.3% during the same period in 2020. Because of adjustments in our sales practices, and the reform of healthcare policies, we reduced number of personnel and expenses to efficiently support our sales and the collection of accounts receivable.

 General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses were both $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. General and administrative expenses accounted for 13.7% and 8.6% of our total revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Research and Development Expenses

Our research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 were $0.05 million, as compared to $0.03 million in the same period in 2020. Research and development expenses accounted for 2.2% and 0.8% of our total revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. These expenditures were mainly used for the consistency evaluations of our existing products.

Bad Debt Benefit

Our bad debt benefit for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $4,744, as compared to $5,318 for the same period in 2020.

Our customers are primarily pharmaceutical distributors that sell our products to mostly government-backed hospitals. Therefore, the aging of our receivables from our customers tends to be longer-term.

The amount of accounts receivable that was past due (or the amount of accounts receivable that was more than 180 days old) was $0.07 million and $0.06 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

The following table illustrates our accounts receivable aging distribution in terms of percentage of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

Since the fourth quarter of 2018, our bad debt allowance estimate has been updated with a policy which requires no allowance of accounts receivable recognized that is within 180 days old, 10% of accounts receivable that is between 180 days and 365 days old, 70% of accounts receivable that is between 365 days and 720 days old, and 100% of accounts receivable that is greater than 720 days old. Prior to that, our policy was to recognize no allowance of accounts receivable that is within 90 days old, 10% of accounts receivable that is between 90 days and 365 days old, 70% of accounts receivable that is between 365 days and 720 days old, and 100% of accounts receivable that is greater than 720 days old.

We recognize bad debt expenses per actual write-offs as well as changes of allowance for doubtful accounts. To the extent that our current allowance for doubtful accounts is higher than that of the previous period, we recognize a bad debt expense for the difference during the current period, and, when the current allowance is lower than that of the previous period, we recognize a bad debt benefit for the difference. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $18.3 million as of June 30, 2021 and $18.2 million as of December 31, 2020. The changes in the allowances for doubtful accounts during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were as follows:

The total balance of the construction loan facility was RMB 14 million ($2.2 million) as of June 30, 2021, which is all due within 12 months. On July 10, 2021, we fully repaid such principal of RMB 80 million (approximately $12.4 million) of the construction loans per the payback schedule.

The Company also obtained a line of credit of RMB 3,200,000 (approximately $0.5 million) from China CITIC Bank in September 2020 and obtained an advance of RMB 2,343,340 (approximately $344,098), and the remaining of RMB 856,660 (approximately $125,793) in October 2020 under this line. The loan bears interest at a rate of 4.50% per annum. The line of credit is due in one year on the anniversary date of the advance. These factors raised substantial doubts about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Cash flow generated from operating activities, lines of credit and advances from our CEO were used to fund our daily operating expenses as well as the repayment of our loan facility.

Our net accounts receivable was $0.4 million and $0.5 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Total inventory was $3.0 million and $3.7 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Although the Company obtained lines of credit in April, June, and September 2020, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve its future strategic to accelerate the launch of nutrition products raising substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Although our Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer had advanced funds for working capital during the first three months ended March 31, 2021, there can be no assurances that this will be the case in the future. We may seek debt or equity financing as necessary when we believe the market conditions are the most advantageous to us and/or reduce certain discretionary spending, which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve our business objectives.  There can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $0.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to net cash used by operating activities was $0.2 million for the same period in 2020.

Our net accounts receivable was $0.4 million and $0.5 million as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Total inventory was $3.0 million, as of June 30, 2021, and $3.7million as of December 31, 2020.

Investing Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, net cash used in investing activities was $0.02 million as compared to $0.84 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was mainly due to the purchase of mask production lines in the same period in 2020.

Financing Activities

Cash flow generated by financing activities was $0.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $1.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020. The financing activities that occurred in the six months ended June 30, 2021 were primarily borrowing from related party.

According to relevant PRC laws, companies registered in the PRC, including our PRC subsidiary, Helpson, are required to allocate at least ten percent (10%) of their after-tax net income, as determined under the accounting standards and regulations in the PRC, to statutory surplus reserve accounts until the reserve account balances reach fifty percent (50%) of the companies’ registered capital prior to their remittance of funds out of the PRC.  Allocations to these reserves and funds can only be used for specific purposes and are not transferrable to the parent company in the form of loans, advances or cash dividends. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, Helpson’s net assets totaled $4,437,000 and $5,777,000, respectively. Due to the restriction on dividend distribution to overseas shareholders, the amount of Helpson’s net assets that was designated for general and statutory capital reserves, and thus could not be transferred to our parent company as cash dividends, was 50% of Helpson’s registered capital, which is $8,145,000 and $8,145,000 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The amount that Helpson must set aside for the statutory surplus fund accounts for 184% and 141% of its total net assets.  There were no allocations to the statutory surplus reserve accounts during the six months ended June 30, 2021.

The Chinese government also imposes controls on the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of China.  Our businesses and assets are primarily denominated in RMB.  All foreign exchange transactions take place either through the People’s Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People’s Bank of China or other regulatory institutions requires the submission of a payment application form together with certain invoices and executed contracts. The currency exchange control procedures imposed by Chinese government authorities may restrict the ability of Helpson, our Chinese subsidiary, to transfer its net assets to our parent company through loans, advances or cash dividends.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act (a) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)’s rules and forms and (b) is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives as described above. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2021 to satisfy the objectives for which they are intended. This was due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, with respect to our lack of accounting financial reporting personnel who were knowledgeable in U.S. GAAP, as disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on March 26, 2021. Notwithstanding the aforementioned material weakness, management has concluded that our consolidated financial statements included in this report are fairly stated in all material respects in accordance with U.S. GAAP for each period presented herein.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
