SUNWIN INTERNATIONAL NEUTRACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

THE COMPANY

Sunwin International Neutraceuticals, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries are referred to in this report as the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”, or “Sunwin”.

We sell stevioside, a natural sweetener, as well as herbs used in traditional Chinese medicines and veterinary products. Substantially all of our operations are located in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). We have built an integrated company with the sourcing and production capabilities designed to meet the needs of our customers.

Our operations are organized in two operating segments related to our product lines:

-
Stevioside; and
-
Chinese and Veterinary Medicine.

Stevioside Segment

Stevioside and rebaudioside are all natural, low calorie sweeteners extracted from the leaves of the stevia rebaudiana plant. Stevioside is a safe and natural alternative to sugar for people needing low sugar or low calorie diets.  Qufu Shengwang and Qufu Shengren are two fiscal 2009 acquisitions now included in this segment.

Qufu Shengwang

In fiscal 2009, Qufu Natural Green acquired a 60% interest in Qufu Shengwang from its shareholder, Shandong Group, for $4,026,851. The purchase price represents 60% of the value of the net tangible assets of Qufu Shengwang as of April 30, 2008. Shandong Group is owned by Laiwang Zhang, our President and Chairman of the board of directors. Qufu Shengwang manufactures and sells stevia food additives, agricultural organic fertilizers and bio fertilizers.

Qufu Shengren

In fiscal 2009, Qufu Natural Green acquired Qufu Shengren for $3,097,242. The purchase price is equal to the value of the assets of Qufu Shengren as determined by an independent asset appraisal in accordance with asset appraisal principles in the PRC. Qufu Shengren is engaged in the production and distribution of bulk drugs and pharmaceuticals.

Chinese and Veterinary Medicine Segment

In our Chinese and Veterinary Medicine Segment, we manufacture and sell a variety of veterinary medicines, including seven series of more than 200 products, as well as traditional Chinese medicine formula extracts which are used in products made for use by both humans and animals.

Sunwin USA, LLC

In fiscal 2009, we entered into a distributorship and operating agreement with Wild Flavors for the worldwide distribution of our stevioside based sweetener products and issued Wild Flavors a 45% interest in Sunwin USA, LLC. In exchange Wild Flavors’ agreed to provide sales, marketing, logistics and supply chain management, product development and regulatory services with a stated value of $1,000,000 over a period of two years beginning on February 5, 2009, and will act as the sole manager of Sunwin USA and will be responsible for all of its business and affairs.

On May 11, 2009 we converted our former subsidiary Sunwin Stevia International, a Florida Corporation, into Sunwin USA, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.  We retain a 55% voting interest in the new company, yet the aggregate impact of veto and approval rights of the minority voting interest has overcome our ability to consolidate this entity.  Therefore, we will account for our investment in Sunwin USA, LLC as an equity method investment.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

We are on a fiscal year ending April 30, as such the year ended April 30, 2009 is referred to as “fiscal 2009” and the coming year ending April 30, 2010 is referred to as “fiscal 2010”.  Also, the three month period ending July 31, is our first quarter and the three month period ending July 31, 2009 is referred to as the “first quarter of fiscal 2010”. Likewise, the three month period ending July 31, 2008 is referred to as the “first quarter of fiscal 2009”.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented.

Significant estimates for the periods reported include the allowance for doubtful accounts which is based on an evaluation of our outstanding accounts receivable including the age of amounts due, the financial condition of our specific customers, knowledge of our industry segment in Asia, and historical bad debt experience.  This evaluation methodology has proven to provide a reasonable estimate of bad debt expense in the past and we intend to continue to employ this approach in our analysis of collectability.  However, we are aware that given the current global economic situation, including that of China, meaningful time horizons may change.  We intend to enhance our focus on the evaluation of our customers' sustainability and adjust our estimates as may be indicated.

We also rely on assumptions and estimates to calculate reserve for obsolete inventory and the depreciation of property, plant and equipment. We make assumptions of expiration duration on our products held as inventory based on historical experience and if applicable, regulatory recommendation. We also group property plant and equipment into similar groups of assets and estimate the useful life of each group of assets; see Note 3 – Property and Equipment for further information on asset groups and estimated useful lives.

Further, we rely on certain assumptions and calculations underlying our provision for taxes in China.  Assumptions and estimates employed in these areas are material to our reported financial conditions and results of operations.  These assumptions and estimates have been materially accurate in the past and are not expected to materially change in the future.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, we consider all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of these instruments approximates their fair value.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Accounts receivable are reported at net realizable value. The Company has established an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors pertaining to the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends, and other information. Delinquent accounts are written off when it is determined that the amounts are uncollectible. At July 31, 2009 and April 30, 2009, the allowances for doubtful accounts were $817,039 and $817,923, respectively.

INVENTORIES

Inventories, consisting of raw materials, work in process, and finished goods related to our products, are stated at the lower of cost or market (estimated net realizable value) utilizing the weighted average method.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company has adopted SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”), for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. SFAS 157 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of fair value measurements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements. The adoption of SFAS 157 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position or operating results, but did expand certain disclosures.
 
SFAS 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, SFAS 157 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:

 
Level 1:
Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
 
Level 2:
Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data
 
Level 3:
Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

The Company did not have any Level 2 or Level 3 assets or liabilities as of June 30, 2009.
 
Cash and cash equivalents of $10,594,365, that may include money market securities and commercial paper that are considered to be highly liquid and easily tradable as of July 31, 2009. These securities are valued using inputs observable in active markets for identical securities and are therefore classified as Level 1 within our fair value hierarchy.
 
In addition to SFAS 157 as noted above, SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” was effective for the three months ended July 31, 2009. SFAS 159 expands opportunities to use fair value measurements in financial reporting and permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The Company did not elect the fair value options for any of its qualifying financial instruments.

INCOME TAXES

The Company files federal and state income tax returns in the United States for its corporate operations, and files separate foreign tax returns for our Chinese subsidiaries. We account for income taxes under the provisions of SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", as clarified by the Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes", which is an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns.

BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE

Under the provisions of SFAS 128, “Earnings Per Share”, basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the income of the company, subject to anti-dilution limitations.

* At July 31, 2008 outstanding warrants to purchase common stock, which could have resulted in the issuance of 9,696,590 additional common shares were anti-dilutive as the exercise price of the warrants exceeded the average market price of our stock and, accordingly, has not been included in the earnings per share calculation for first quarter of fiscal 2009.  On February 20, 2009, the exercise price for a portion of outstanding warrants was reduced from $0.65 to $0.15. At July 31, 2009 outstanding purchase warrants which could have resulted in the issuance of 8,410,280 additional common shares were anti-dilutive as we reported a net loss applicable to our common shareholders; additionally, outstanding purchase warrants which could have resulted in the issuance of 26,666,666 additional common shares were also anti-dilutive as the exercise price of the warrants exceeded the average market price.  Both these tranches of warrants were not included in diluted earnings per calculations for the first quarter of fiscal 2010.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets, which range from five to twenty years. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", we examine the possibility of decreases in the value of fixed assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable. Accumulated depreciation on property and equipment totaled $6,194,633 and $5,726,352 at July 31, 2009 and April 30, 2009, respectively.  Also depreciation expense totaled $474,663 and $361,023 for the first quarter of fiscal 2010, and 2009, respectively.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

Transactions and balances originally denominated in U.S. dollars are presented at their original amounts. Transactions and balances in other currencies are converted into U.S. dollars in accordance with SFAS No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation" and are included in determining net income or loss.

The reporting currency for the Company is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of our Chinese subsidiaries is the local currency; the Chinese dollar or Renminbi ("RMB"). The financial statements of the subsidiaries are translated into United States dollars using year-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues, costs, and expenses. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included in the consolidated statements of operations. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income or loss. The cumulative translation adjustments were an unrealized loss of $44,080 for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and unrealized gain of 615,112 for the first quarter of fiscal 2009.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and other comprehensive income or loss. Other comprehensive income or loss refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States are included in comprehensive income but excluded from net income as these amounts are recorded directly as an adjustment to stockholders’ equity.

Our other comprehensive income consists of currency translation adjustments. The following table sets forth the computation of comprehensive income for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and 2009, respectively:

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. We place our cash with high credit quality financial institutions in the United States and China. At July 31, 2009, we had $10,576,702 on deposit in China, which is not insured. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts through July 31, 2009.

Almost all of the Company's sales are credit sales which are primarily to customers whose ability to pay is dependent upon the industry economics prevailing in these areas; however, we believe concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivables is limited due to generally short payment terms. We also perform ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to help further reduce potential credit risk.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for stock options issued to employees in accordance with SFAS No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment, An Amendment to FASB Statement No. 123". SFAS 123R requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity based compensation issued to employees as an expense in our statements of operations over the service periods of each award.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company follows the guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104 and SAB Topic 13 for revenue recognition. In general, we record revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2009 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162 (“SFAS 168”). The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”) will become the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants, including us. On the effective date of SFAS 168, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other nongrandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become nonauthoritative.   SFAS 168 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. We do not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material effect on our financial position and results of operations.

In June 2009 the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“SFAS 167”). SFAS 167 amends Interpretation 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, specifies updated criteria for determining the primary beneficiary, requires ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, eliminates the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, amends certain guidance for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity, requires enhanced disclosures about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity, and includes other provisions. SFAS 167 will be effective as of the beginning of the our first interim and annual reporting periods that begin after November 15, 2009 or the beginning of our fiscal year ended April 30, 2011. Earlier application is prohibited. We are currently evaluating the impact of this statement on our consolidated financial statements.

We adopted SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events (“SFAS 165”). The objective of SFAS 165 is to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. In particular, SFAS 165 sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. The adoption of this statement has not had a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard setting organizations and various regulatory agencies. Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to our consolidated financial statements.

Section 402 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 prohibits granting credit in the form of a personal loan to a director or executive officer of a public company. The delivery by Ms. Wu to us of a promissory note as consideration for the payment of the exercise price of the options was considered the extension of credit to her and, accordingly, was in violation of Section 402 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002.  At July 31, 2009 and April 30, 2009 this extension of credit had a $0 balance and was satisfied as described above.

The Company has paid management fees Pharmaceutical Corporation, in which Mr. Laiwang Zhang, our president and chairman holds a majority interest. The management fees, which have been included in general and administrative expenses, totaled $0 and $113,857 for the three months ended July 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. At July 31, 2009, the Company owed Pharmaceutical Corporation $1,476 for management fees. Pharmaceutical Corporation has agreed to waive fees it charges us to provide consulting services to certain of its subsidiaries, including maintaining infrastructure and covering utility expenses of those entities for the calendar year 2009. In addition, Pharmaceutical Corporation has agreed that starting January 2010, the maximum consulting fee that will be charged to the Company by Pharmaceutical Corporation will be approximately $175,508 (RMB1, 200,000) per year.

Accounts Receivable – related party

At July 31, 2009 and April 30, 2009, we reported $74,642 and $0 in accounts receivable – related party, respectively.  Accounts receivable – related party reflected amounts due from Qufu Shengwang Import and Export Corporation, a Chinese entity owned by our Chairman, Mr. Laiwang Zhang for shipped merchandise.  Total related party revenues during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and 2009 was $109,932 and $0, respectively

NOTE 6 - PREPAID EXPENSES AND OTHER CURRENT ASSETS

We recognize prepayments as inventory or expense as suppliers make delivery of goods or provide services for which we have paid.

NOTE 7 – EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENT

Sunwin USA, LLC

In fiscal 2009, we entered into a distributorship and operating agreement with Wild Flavors, Inc. ("Wild Flavors") for the worldwide distribution of our stevioside based sweetener products and issued Wild Flavors a 45% interest in Sunwin USA, LLC (“Sunwin USA”). In exchange, Wild Flavors’ agreed to provide sales, marketing, logistics and supply chain management, product development and regulatory services with a stated value of $1,000,000 over a period of two years beginning on February 5, 2009, and will act as the sole manager of Sunwin USA and will be responsible for all of its business and affairs.

On May 11, 2009 we converted our former subsidiary Sunwin Stevia International, a Florida Corporation, into Sunwin USA, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and contributed $423,493 of net assets into the newly formed entity.  We retain a 55% ownership interest in the new company, but the assumption to consolidate this entity based on our greater than 50% ownership interest is overcome due to the aggregate impact of veto and approval rights of the minority voting interest.  Therefore, in accordance with EITF Issue No. 96-16, Investor's Accounting for an Investee When the Investor Has a Majority of the Voting Interest but the Minority Shareholders Have Certain Approval or Veto Rights we account for our investment in Sunwin USA, LLC as an equity method investment.  The balance of such investment is made up of the following:

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the information contained in our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein and in conjunction with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2009.

We are on a fiscal year ending April 30, as such the year ended April 30, 2009 is referred to as “fiscal 2009” and the coming year ending April 30, 2010 is referred to as “fiscal 2010”.  Also, the three month period ending July 31, is our first quarter and the three month period ending July 31, 2009 is referred to as the “first quarter of fiscal 2010”. Likewise, the three month period ending July 31, 2008 is referred to as the “first quarter of fiscal 2009”.

Overview

We sell stevioside, a natural sweetener, as well as herbs used in traditional Chinese medicines and veterinary products. Substantially all of our operations are located in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). We have built an integrated company with the sourcing and production capabilities designed to meet the needs of our customers.

Our operations are organized in two operating segments related to our product lines:

-
Stevioside; and
-
Chinese and Veterinary Medicine.

Stevioside

Stevioside and rebaudioside are all natural low calorie sweeteners extracted from the leaves of the stevia rebaudiana plant. Stevioside is a safe and natural alternative to sugar for people needing low sugar or low calorie diets. Stevioside can be used to replace sugar in beverages and foods, including those that require baking or cooking where man made chemical based sweetener replacements are not suitable.

Sunwin USA, LLC -- OnlySweet

OnlySweet is an all natural, zero calorie, dietary supplement comprised of three natural ingredients, including stevioside. OnlySweet is carried in 3,500 stores in the U.S. and is generally displayed in the sweetener aisle with alternative sweeteners. Through our equity method investment in Sunwin USA, LLC and relationship with Wild Flavors, Inc., we intend to support the marketing of OnlySweet as a zero calorie sweetener alternative; as well as a “green” alternative. Natural products are one of the fastest growing segments in the grocery industry.

On May 11, 2009 we converted our former consolidated subsidiary Sunwin Stevia International, a Florida Corporation, into Sunwin USA, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and contributed $423,493 of net assets into the newly formed entity.  We retain a 55% ownership interest in the new company, but due to the aggregate impact of veto and approval rights of the minority voting interest we will not consolidate this entity; as such, beginning this current quarter we will not include the revenues and expenses of this entity in our unaudited consolidated financial statements, instead we will account for our 55% interest in net income of the entity as part of other income.  As our historic revenues from the sales of OnlySweet represented approximately 3% of our revenues for fiscal 2009 we do not anticipate that our inability to consolidate this entity will adversely impact our revenues in future periods.  However, because this is no longer a consolidated entity we now report revenues associated with the sale of raw materials to Sunwin USA, LLC which totaled approximately $110,000 during the first quarter of fiscal 2010.

Chinese and Veterinary Medicines Segment

In our Chinese Medicine and Veterinary Medicine segment, we manufacture and sell a variety of veterinary medicines, including seven series of more than 200 products, as well as traditional Chinese medicine formula extracts which are used in products made for use by both humans and animals.

Veterinary Medicines

We manufacture and sell all natural polysaccharid and flavonoid extraction compound feed additives. We believe these compounds have little or no side effects and can be substituted for antibiotics and chemical compounds often found in animal feeds. We also sell our brand of CIO 2 food disinfectant. CIO 2, a chemical employed in both industrial and commercial applications, was developed successfully in 1985.

 
- 18 -

 

Traditional Chinese Medicine Formula Extracts

We manufacture and sell approximately 120 different extracts of the estimated 400 traditional Chinese medicine extracts, which can be divided into the following three general categories:

-
single traditional Chinese medicine extracts;
-
compound traditional Chinese medicine extracts; and
-
purified extracts, including active parts and monomer compounds such as soy isoflavone.
 
Our Performance

In the first quarter of fiscal 2010 our total revenues declined by approximately 45% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009.  During the first quarter of fiscal 2010 revenues from our Stevioside Segment decreased approximately 29% as compared to first quarter of fiscal 2009 and revenues from our Chinese and Veterinary Medicines Segment decreased approximately 67% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009.  These decreases were primarily due to decreased customer demand due to slow recovery from the recent global economic crisis and decreased customer production levels due to acts of nature and regulatory limitations on breeding.

While our total operating expenses decreased approximately 6% n the first quarter of fiscal 2010 from the comparable period in fiscal 2009, we reported a net loss attributable to our company of approximately $370,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared to net income of approximately $298,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 primarily as a result of the significant decrease in our revenues in the 2010 period.

Our Outlook
 
We believe the future represents an opportunity to regain historical sales levels and seek out growth in our Stevioside Segment even though we face challenges in our Chinese and Veterinary Medicine Segment.  The key factors to possible growth include:

-
In February 2009, we established a strategic alliance with Wild Flavors to develop, market and sell stevioside based  sweeteners for the food and beverage industry;
-
We believe the synergies between us and Wild Flavors will create opportunities to establish new sweetener products and establish additional revenue streams;
-
In 2008 the FDA, Australia and New Zealand approved highly purified forms of stevioside as safe for use in food and beverage products; and
-
During this first quarter of fiscal 2010, we filed a notification with the FDA seeking Generally Recognized as Safe (“GRAS”) status for our high grade stevioside extracts and are presently awaiting a response.

These opportunities will, however, face the challenges which have impacted our Chinese and Veterinary Medicine Segment created by the global economic slowdown, impact of flooding on the production capacity of our customers, government efforts to minimize the spread of the swine flu pandemic and adverse currency exchange rates in South Korea. 

Foreign Exchange Considerations

Since revenues from our operations in the PRC accounted for substantially all of our revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and the first quarter of fiscal 2009. We report revenues from our PRC-based operations is of particular importance to understanding our financial statements. Transactions and balances originally denominated in U.S. dollars are presented at their original amounts. Transactions and balances in other currencies are converted into U.S. dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation”, and are included in determining net income or loss. For foreign operations with the local currency as the functional currency, assets and liabilities are translated from the local currencies into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective balance sheet date.

The functional currency of our Chinese subsidiaries is the local currency, the Renminbi (the “RMB”). The financial statements of our subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars using period end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the periods for revenues, costs, and expenses. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included in the consolidated statements of operations. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive income or loss. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and the first quarter of fiscal 2009 were a net decrease of $10,546 and net increase $158,616, respectively.

 
- 19 -

 

If any increase in the value of the RMB were to occur in the future, our product sales in the PRC and in other countries may be negatively affected.

At July 31, 2009 we held cash of $4,065 in banks in Canada. The functional currency of our Canadian subsidiary is the Canadian dollar. We periodically evaluate the credit quality of the financial institutions in which we hold deposits.

As a result of the currency translation adjustments, we reported unrealized loss on foreign currency translation of $44,080 and unrealized gain of $615,112 for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and the first quarter of fiscal 2009, respectively. This non-cash item, shown here before amounts attributable to noncontrolling interest, had the effect of significantly increasing our comprehensive loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and increasing our comprehensive income the first quarter of fiscal 2009.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these consolidated 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 on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions 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. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

A summary of significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements appearing elsewhere in this report. Management believes that the application of these policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide useful and reliable financial information about our operating results and financial condition.

ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented.

Significant estimates for the periods reported include the allowance for doubtful accounts which is based on an evaluation of our outstanding accounts receivable including the age of amounts due, the financial condition of our specific customers, knowledge of our industry segment in Asia, and historical bad debt experience.  This evaluation methodology has proven to provide a reasonable estimate of bad debt expense in the past and we intend to continue to employ this approach in our analysis of collectability.  However, we are aware that given the current global economic crises, including that of the PRC, meaningful time horizons may change.  We intend to enhance our focus on the evaluation of our customers' sustainability and adjust our estimates as may be indicted.

We also rely on assumptions and estimates to calculate reserve for obsolete inventory and the depreciation of property, plant and equipment. We make assumptions of expiration of our products held as inventory based on historical experience and if applicable, regulatory recommendation. We also group property plant and equipment into similar groups of assets and estimate the useful life of each group of assets; see Note 3 – Property and Equipment for further information on asset groups and estimated useful lives.

Further, we rely on certain assumptions and calculations underlying our provision for taxes in the PRC.  Assumptions and estimates employed in these areas are material to our reported financial conditions and results of operations.  These assumptions and estimates have been materially accurate in the past and are not expected to materially change in the future.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

We record property and equipment at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets, which are from five to twenty years. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. We review the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to the undiscounted cash flows that the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the property, if any, exceeds its fair market value.

We account for stock options issued to employees in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement 123R,  Share-Based Payment, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123  (“FAS 123R”). FAS 123R requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees. We adopted FAS 123R in the second quarter of fiscal year ending April 30, 2006.

 REVENUE RECOGNITION

We follow the guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 and SAB Topic 13 for revenue recognition. In general, we record revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2009 the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162 (“SFAS 168”). The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”) will become the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants, including us. On the effective date of SFAS 168, the Codification will supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative.   SFAS 168 is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. We do not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material effect on our financial position and results of operations.

In June 2009 the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“SFAS 167”). SFAS 167 amends Interpretation 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, specifies updated criteria for determining the primary beneficiary, requires ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, eliminates the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, amends certain guidance for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity, requires enhanced disclosures about an enterprise’s involvement in a variable interest entity, and includes other provisions. SFAS 167 will be effective as of the beginning of the our first interim and annual reporting periods that begin after November 15, 2009 or the beginning of our fiscal year ended April 30, 2011. Earlier application is prohibited. We are currently evaluating the impact of this statement on our consolidated financial statements.

We adopted SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events (“SFAS 165”). The objective of SFAS 165 is to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. In particular, SFAS 165 sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. The adoption of this statement has not had a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 Overall

In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, our total revenues decreased approximately 45% from the first quarter of fiscal 2009. This decrease is a result of a $1,807,151 decrease in sales in our Chinese and Veterinary Medicine Segment or approximately 67% and a $1,016,747 decrease in sales in our Stevioside Segment or approximately 29%. The decrease in demand for our products is primarily due to (i) reduced customer demand over all product categories due to slow recovery in response to the global economic downturn, and (ii) reduced customer demand for antibiotics and other veterinary products as a result of heavy rains and flooding occurring in southern China during June and July of 2009, and (iii) customer demand has been further reduced as a result of restrictions imposed by the PRC on the use of antibiotics and breeding of livestock impacted by the swine flu virus.

Our gross profit in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 decreased approximately 50%, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009. In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues increased approximately 2%. This increase is attributable to higher costs of production associated with production of smaller quantities as a result of the decreased sales in both segments. Through our acquisitions of Qufu Shengren in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009 we have begun production of higher grades of stevioside in an effort to fulfill demand; this transition has resulted in higher costs associated with converting Qufu Shengren’s production facility resulting in lower margins in the short-term. While it is not certain, we expect gross margins for our higher grade products to improve as production increases in the remaining quarter of fiscal 2010.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, total operating expenses decreased approximately 6% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009. Total operating expenses decreased primarily as a result of a $151,287 decrease in selling expense or 33% as a result of lower sales while general and administrative expenses increased by $83,726 or 12% due to an increase in consulting expense.  Selling expenses as a percentage of revenues increased 3% during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009 as a result of relatively higher travel, promotion, and meals and entertainment expense in our effort to regain lost revenues.

The following table provides information on revenues, cost of sales, gross profit, operating expenses, and operating income for each of our reporting segments for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and the first quarter of fiscal 2009, respectively, as well as information related to our corporate operating expenses:

Stevioside Segment

In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, revenues from our Stevioside Segment decreased $1,016,747 or approximately 29% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009. In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, revenues from this segment represented approximately 74% of our total revenues as compared to approximately 57% in the first quarter of fiscal 2009; our stevioside segment's larger share of our total sales is due to our continued focus of sales efforts in our stevioside segment.  The decrease in revenues is primarily attributable a reduction in customer demand as result of a slow recovery from the overall world economic crisis. Customer demand has also decreased in South Korea as a result of an approximately 23% devaluation of South Korean Won compared to the RMB during the same period in the prior year.  Furthermore, as a result of the conversion of Sunwin Stevia International into Sunwin USA, LLC and ensuing deconsolidation of the entity, we did not consolidate Sunwin USA, LLC’s revenues which amounted to $124,155 during the first quarter of fiscal 2009.  While we do not consolidate revenues of Sunwin USA, LLC, we will treat our investment in this entity using the equity method and will account for our equity share in income or loss of the entity as part of other income.  We can attribute $314,088 or 13% of Stevioside Segment revenues to sales from our acquisitions of Qufu Shengwang and Qufu Shengren during  the latter three quarters of fiscal 2009 which did not contribute to revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2009.

Our gross profit in this segment in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 decreased approximately 27% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009 primarily as a result of decreased revenues. In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, cost of sales in our Stevioside Segment was approximately 79%, decreasing 1% from the first quarter of fiscal 2009. Through our acquisition of Qufu Shengren we have begun to produce higher grades of stevioside. This acquisition has allowed us to realize efficiencies in the production of higher grade stevioside as we are able to specialize different production facilities for our different products. .

In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, operating expenses for our Stevioside Segment decreased approximately 5% from the comparable period in fiscal 2009 which is primarily attributable to the waiver of a management fee in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 related to housing provided to certain non-management employees, insurance for our employees, rent for our principal offices and the use of research and development facilities.  We paid approximately $74,000 to Pharmaceutical Corporation, an entity controlled by our President and Chairman, Mr. Zhang in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, and were granted a waiver for the remaining calendar year ending December 31, 2009.  This decrease was partially offset by an increase in depreciation expense resulting from the acquisitions in this segment in fiscal 2009.

We continue to place emphasis on the expansion of sales of stevioside in the PRC and throughout Asia and North America. In February 2009, we entered into a distribution agreement with Wild Flavors in connection with their investment in our Company. We believe this relationship has the potential to expand revenues in this market through improvements in product development, marketing, and distribution.

Chinese and Veterinary Medicine Segment

In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, revenues from our Chinese and Veterinary Medicine Segment decreased approximately 67% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009. During this period, revenues from this segment represented approximately 27% of our total revenues as compared to approximately 43% in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. In the first quarter of fiscal 2010 we generated revenues of $471,231 from our traditional Chinese medicine products as compared to $1,489,915 in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, a decrease of approximately 68%. In the first quarter of fiscal 2010 we generated revenues $430,394 from our veterinary medicine products, a decrease of approximately 65% as compared to the first quarter of 2009. As described earlier in this section demand for our products in this segment declined as a result of a variety of factors.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, cost of revenues represented approximately 74% of revenues within this segment, as compared to 71% of revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. Our cost of revenues increased as a percentage of revenues primarily due to higher costs of production associated with production of smaller quantities as a result of the decreased sales.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2010 our gross profit within this segment decreased approximately 70%, from the first quarter of fiscal 2009.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, operating expenses of this segment decreased approximately 57% primarily due to decreases in commissions and shipping expense as a result of lower revenues as well as a decrease in management fee as described above.  This segment paid approximately $58,000 for this fee during the first quarter of fiscal 2009 that was not replicated in the current quarter. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues increased to 25% in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 primarily due to an increase in selling expenses as a percentage of revenues to 17%.  As we decrease our focus on this segment and due to significant economic and environmental obstacles present in this segment we do not expect operating expenses or overall operations to return to prior levels.

Corporate and Other

We incur various operating expenses at the corporate level related to stock-based compensation, legal, auditing, professional and business consultants. For the first quarter of fiscal 2010, these expenses increased approximately 161% in the first quarter of fiscal 2009. This increase resulted primarily from the renewal of our consulting agreement with China Direct Investments, Inc. for consulting services to be provided throughout the rest of fiscal 2010.  We fully expensed all of these consulting services in the first quarter due to the lack of forfeiture or vesting provisions in our agreement with such consultants.

 TOTAL OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, our total other expense increased $60,075 to an expense item of $47,224 as compared to an income item of $12,851 during the first quarter of fiscal 2009. Other expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 is primarily due to our equity in the loss of our equity method investee, Sunwin USA, LLC.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, interest income decreased $2,478 from the first quarter of fiscal 2009. This reduction reflected less interest earned due to the combination of lower interest rates and comparatively less cash held in banks.

NET INCOME (LOSS) ATTRIBUTABLE TO SUNWIN INTERNATIONAL NEUTRACEUTICALS, INC.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2010 we reported a net loss attributable to Sunwin International Neutraceuticals, Inc. of $370,199 as compared to net income attributable to Sunwin International Neutraceuticals, Inc. of $297,634 for the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The decrease is primarily due to a 67% and 29% drop in revenues in our Chinese and Veterinary Medicine Segment and Stevioside Segment, respectively, a 161% increase in corporate expenses due to consulting services and $62,299 loss from our equity in loss in Sunwin USA, LLC; these items are partially offset by a decrease in corporate income taxes of $50,284 and the effect of attributing $26,624 of Qufu Shengwang’s loss to the noncontrolling interest.

From an overall perspective, the current global economic downturn has not had a significant impact upon our liquidity as the majority of our short-term financing is obtained through payment terms with our suppliers and vendors rather than business loans from banks. The economic downturn and reactions to the swine flu virus has impacted our operations and has reduced customer demand over all product categories in both segments as described earlier in this report and our customers are slower to pay us with days sales outstanding increasing to an average of 91 days for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 up from 55 days for the first quarter of fiscal 2009.

At July 31, 2009, we had working capital of $19,455,565 including cash of $10,594,365 as compared to working capital of $19,891,064 including cash of $10,487,165 at April 30, 2009. Our cash position by geographic area was as follows:

Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, at July 31, 2009 decreased approximately $580,762 from April 30, 2009.  Our allowance for doubtful accounts, which reflects accounts receivable balances in excess of 12 months, decreased minimally $884 from April 30, 2009. While we have seen an increase in days sales outstanding in the current period, the aging of our receivables and our perception of our customers’ abilities to pay have not significantly changed to require a modification to our allowance for doubtful accounts as of July 31, 2009.  Our total allowance for doubtful accounts as of April 30, 2009 is related to our Chinese and Veterinary Medicine segment. We may, however, collect all or a portion of these doubtful accounts. At July 31, 2009 accounts receivables decreased 14% as a result of our decrease in sales compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009. Our days sales outstanding increased to an average 91 days outstanding during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 from 55 days during the first quarter of fiscal 2009. This is a result of slower payments from customers.

At July 31, 2009, inventories, net of reserve for obsolete inventory, decreased $189,561 as compared to April 30, 2009. This decrease is primarily due to an offsetting effect of (i) decrease is raw materials inventory as we delay replacement of used up raw material in anticipation of the harvest season of stevia leaves in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and (ii) an increase in levels of finished goods on hand as a result of declining demand and decreased sales. The increase in relative costs to our South Korean customers due to fluctuations in currency exchange has led to a decrease in exports of our products.

Prepaid expenses and other current assets increased $69,273 or approximately 24% at July 31, 2009 as compared to April 30, 2009. This increase was attributable to timing differences near our fiscal year end related to advances to suppliers in the Chinese and Veterinary Medicine segment. These advances reflect deposits related to future delivery of inventory.

At July 31, 2009, we had property and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, of $19,019,979 as compared to $19,121,340, a 1% decrease from April 30, 2009. This decrease is due to normally occurring depreciation expense during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 offset by $394,578 in fixed asset capital expenditures.

At July 31, 2009, we reflected $2,107,478 of accounts payable and accrued expenses, a minimal change from April 30, 2009. This balance includes trade accounts payable and accrued expenses of $2,063,225 and accrued salaries and benefits of $44,253. Of the total accounts payable and accrued expenses at April 30, 2009, approximately $1,310,888 relates to our Stevioside Segment, with the balance of $752,337 relating to our Chinese and Veterinary Medicine Segment. The change at July 31, 2009 compared to April 30, 2009 reflects timing differences of payments made in the ordinary course of business.

At July 31, 2009, we had a due to related parties balance of $58,576 that did not significantly change from April 30, 2009.

At July 31, 2009, we had other current payables of $14,910 compared to $10,000 at April 30, 2009; other current payables includes advance from vendors and a $10,000 unsecured, non-interest bearing, advance from an unrelated party. The increase is due to an increase in advances from vendors for deposits made on future sales that had not been shipped as of July 31, 2009

At July 31, 2009, we held cash of $10,594,365 as compared to cash of $10,487,165 at April 30, 2009, an increase of $107,200. During the first quarter of fiscal 2010, net cash provided by operating activities totaled $772,893, net cash used in investing activities was $655,147, no net cash used in or provided by financing activities, and the effect of prevailing exchange rate on cash of $10,546.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $105,682 to $772,893 during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $667,211 for the first quarter of fiscal 2009. During the first quarter of fiscal 2010, we used $106,997 to pay down taxes payable, $71,618 for prepaid expenses, and $74,672 to extend trade credit to a related party. These uses were primarily offset by adjustments to net income of non cash expenses of $783,245 related to depreciation, amortization, and stock-based consulting, $506,143 received from customers paying off receivables, and $86,900 due to an increase in account payable and accrued expenses. Comparatively during the first quarter of fiscal 2009, cash used in operating activities of $667,211 is primarily due adjustment to net income for non-cash expenses of $526,008 and similar paying down of accounts receivable from our customers of $404,943 offset by $322,476 payments for taxes and $201,729 increase in inventory.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $655,147 during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared to cash used of $76,269 during the first quarter of fiscal 2009. In May, 2009 we converted Sunwin Stevia International, a Florida corporation, into Sunwin USA, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and in the process deconsolidated the former subsidiary due to our loss of controlling interest and management control of the entity.  As part of the deconsolidation, $260,569 of cash belonging to Sunwin USA, LLC is no longer consolidated in our consolidated financial statements and is presented as cash contributed to this equity method investment.  We also spent $394,578 in capital expenditures associated with capital improvements in our Stevioside Segment.  This is an increase of $578,878 of cash used in investing compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009 when we spent $76,269 for capital expenditures.

We had no cash provided or used in financing activities the first quarter of fiscal 2010. During the first quarter of fiscal 2009, we received $100,000 in short-term financing paid off later in fiscal 2009.

We believe that existing cash and cash equivalents and internally generated funds will be sufficient to cover working capital requirements and capital expenditures for the next twelve months other than additional working capital requirement that may result from further expansion of our operations through acquisitions of additional facilities.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Under SEC regulations, we are required to disclose our off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, such as changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. An off-balance sheet arrangement means a transaction, agreement or contractual arrangement to which any entity that is not consolidated with us is a party, under which we have:

-
Any obligation under certain guarantee contracts;
-
Any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to that entity for such assets;
-
Any obligation under a contract that would be accounted for as a derivative instrument, except that it is both indexed to our stock and classified in stockholder’s equity in our statement of financial position; and
-
Any obligation arising out of a material variable interest held by us in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to us, or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that we are required to disclose pursuant to these regulations. In the ordinary course of business, we enter into operating lease commitments, purchase commitments and other contractual obligations. These transactions are recognized in our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Securities and Exchange Commission encourages companies to disclose forward-looking information so that investors can better understand a company’s future prospects and make informed investment decisions. This Annual Report on Form 10-K and other written and oral statements that we make from time to time contain such forward-looking statements that set out anticipated results based on management’s plans and assumptions regarding future events or performance. We have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “will” and similar expressions in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, future performance or results of current and anticipated sales efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings, and financial results. A list of factors that could cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to differ materially is set forth below, and these factors are discussed in greater detail under Item 1A – “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2009:

-
Dependence upon continued market acceptance of our stevioside products, obtaining Generally Recognized as Safe status in the United States and approval in other countries in the world that do not permit use of steviosides in food products;

-
Potential violations of Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as a result of a loan by us to our Chief Financial Officer to pay for the exercise of options to purchase our common stock;
-
The limitation on our ability to receive and use our revenues effectively as a result of restrictions on currency exchange in the PRC;
-
Our operations are subject to government regulation.  If we fail to comply with the application regulations, our ability to operate in future periods could be in jeopardy;
-
Our recognition of unrealized gains on foreign currency transaction can materially impact our income from period to period;
-
The absence of various corporate governance measures which may reduce stockholders’ protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and other matters;
 
 
- 27 -

 

-
The effect of changes resulting from the political and economic policies of the Chinese government on our assets and operations located in the PRC;
-
The impact of economic reform policies in the PRC;
-
The influence of the Chinese government over the manner in which our Chinese subsidiaries must conduct our business activities;
-
The impact of swine flu or any recurrence of severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SAR’s, or another widespread public health problem;
-
The lack various legal protections in certain agreements to which we are a party and which are material to our operations which are customarily contained in similar contracts prepared in the United States;
-
Our ability to enforce our rights due to policies regarding the regulation of foreign investments in China;
-
Difficulties stockholders may face who seek to enforce any judgment obtained in the United States against us, which may limit the remedies otherwise available to our stockholders
-
Our ability to receive and use our revenues due to restrictions on currency exchange
-
Our ability to comply with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act which could subject us to penalties and other adverse consequences;
-
Provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws may delay or prevent a take-over which may not be in the best interests of our stockholders;

Adverse affects on the liquidity of our stock because it currently trades below $5.00 per share, is quoted on the OTC bulletin board, and is considered a “penny stock;” and
-
The impact on our stock price due to sales of our stock by existing shareholders.

We caution that the factors described herein and other factors could cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements we make and that investors should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of such factors. Further, we cannot assess the impact of each such factor on our results of operations or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable for a smaller reporting company.
 
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, our  who serves as our principal executive officer and our Chief Financial Officer who serves as our principal financial and accounting officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the period ended July 31, 2009 (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, and as described below under “Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting”, we indentified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f)) described in the next section. Solely as a result of these material weaknesses, our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of July 31, 2009, which is the end of the period covered by this report.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Our "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 Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 
- 28 -

 
 
The certifications attached as Exhibits 31 and 32 to this report should be read in conjunction with the disclosures set forth herein.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The specific material weaknesses identified by our management related to:

  -
Our restatement of our April 30, 2008 consolidated financial statements due to an accounting error that caused us to overstate a liability for an advance from customers by $570,090 (the “Customer Advance Overstatement”). The advance was actually from one of our subsidiaries to another one of our subsidiaries, that, had it been accounted for correctly, would have been eliminated in consolidation;
 
-
During the preparation of our quarterly report for the period ended October 31, 2008 our management determined that the prior disclosure surrounding the granting of options in February 2006 to certain of our employees and the subsequent exercise of those options through the delivery of non-interest bearing notes was incorrect. While the option grants and promissory notes were properly accounted for, our historical disclosure had failed to properly disclose that Ms. Fanjun Wu, our Chief Financial Officer, was a party to those transactions. Ms. Wu was the recipient of options to purchase 800,000 shares of common stock and tendered to us a non-interest bearing promissory note in the amount of $720,000 (the “Wu Note”);
 
-
We have an inadequate number of personnel and our Chief Financial Officer and our staff within our finance and accounting group in the PRC do not have the requisite expertise in generally accepted accounting principles and the securities laws of the United States to ensure the proper application thereof;
 
-
Our internal audit function is significantly deficient due to insufficient qualified resources to perform internal audit functions; and
 
-
We do not have an Audit Committee of our board of directors that is comprised of independent directors.

We believe the following actions we have taken and plan to take will be sufficient to remediate the material weaknesses described above:

-
On September 15, 2008 we filed Amendment No. 1 to our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008 which included our restated April 30, 2008 consolidated financial statements that corrected the accounting error related to the Customer Advance Overstatement discussed above;
 
-
As of July 31, 2008, Ms. Wu repaid us $665,100 in partial satisfaction of the Wu Note and on September 5, 2008, Ms. Wu satisfied the balance of Wu note by assuming $54,900 of the $430,000 loan payable by us to Mr. Ma Qiang.  In addition, in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended July 31, 2008, we disclosed that Ms. Wu’s delivery to us of a promissory note as consideration for the payment of the exercise price of the options was considered the extension of credit to her and, accordingly, in violation of Section 402 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002;
 
-
We will seek to hire an adequate number of personnel involved in the preparation of the financial statements and disclosures with the requisite expertise in generally accepted accounting principles to ensure the proper application thereof;
 
-
We will evaluate hiring additional internal audit resources and are considering a position for an internal auditor who will test and monitor the implementation of our accounting and internal control procedures;
 
-
We will review and revise our existing documentation of our accounting and internal control procedures and policies which will include appropriate controls and procedures for accounting for intercompany transactions and related party transactions;
 
-
We will implement an initiative to ensure the importance of internal controls and compliance with established policies and procedures that are fully understood throughout our company; and
 
-
We will provide training to our employees to ensure these procedures are properly performed.

Management believes the actions described above will remediate the material weaknesses we have identified and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. We expect the material weakness will be remediated prior to April 30, 2010 subject to our ability to find and attract adequate professional resources on reasonable financial terms. As we improve our internal control over financial reporting and implement remediation measures, we may supplement or modify the remediation measures described above.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our Company have been detected.
