SUNWIN STEVIA INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

 NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JULY 31, 20212022

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Sunwin Stevia International, Inc. ("Sunwin Stevia International"), a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries are referred to in this report as "we", "us", "our", "Sunwin" or the "Company".

We sell stevioside, a natural sweetener, and other pharmaceutical productions, such as Metformin. 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 into two operating segments related to our product lines:

For the three months ended July 31, 20212022 and fiscal year 2022,2023, our subsidiaries included in continuing operations and discontinued operations consisted of the following:

-    Sunwin Stevia International;

-   Qufu Natural Green Engineering Co., Ltd. ("Qufu Natural Green"), wholly owned by Sunwin Stevia International;

-   Qufu Shengren Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. ("Qufu Shengren"), 61% owned by Qufu Natural;

-   Qufu Shengwang Stevia Biology and Science Co., Ltd. ("Qufu Shengwang"), wholly owned by Qufu Natural Green;

-   Sunwin USA, LLC ("Sunwin USA"), wholly owned by Sunwin Stevia International; and

-  Qufu Shengren Import and Export Co., Ltd. (“Qufu Shengren Import and Export”), wholly owned subsidiary of Qufu Shengren.

QufuShengren

In fiscal 2009, Qufu Natural Green acquired Qufu Shengren for $3,097,242. The purchase price was 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. Prior to being acquired by us, Qufu Shengren was engaged in the production and distribution of bulk drugs and pharmaceuticals.  Subsequent to the acquisition, Qufu Shengren produces and distributes steviosides with a full range of grades from rebaudioside-A 10 to 99.

Since fiscal 2018 we invested in a new production line for Metformin as one of the new product markets we intend to branch into. Metformin is the raw material of Metformin hydrochloride tablets. Metformin is the first-line medication for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, particularly in people who are not satisfied with simple diet control, especially those with obesity and hyperinsulinemia. On July 10, 2019, the Company entered into the Metformin Production Line Operation Management Agreement with an unaffiliated individual to operate the Metformin production line (see Note 7).

QufuShengren Import and Export

On October 9, 2019, Qufu Shengren invested RMB2,000,000 (approximately $288,000) in a new entity, Qufu Shengren Import and Export Co., Ltd., (“Qufu Shengren Import and Export”), a Chinese limited liability company, a 100% owned subsidiary of Qufu Shengren. Qufu Shengren Import and Export focuses on the export of our Stevia products, and the import and export of technology and other relevant products; we expect to increase operations in this subsidiary in the near future.

Sunwin USA

In fiscal year 2009, we entered into a distribution agreement with WILD Flavors to assist our 55% owned subsidiary, Sunwin USA, in the marketing and worldwide distribution of our stevioside-based sweetener products and issued WILD Flavors a 45% interest in Sunwin USA.  In August 2012, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement with WILD Flavors pursuant to which it purchased its 45% membership interest in Sunwin USA for an aggregate consideration of $1,625,874, which includes the issuance of 7,666,666 shares of our common stock valued at $1,533,333 and a cash payment of $92,541. The purchase included the product development and supply chain for OnlySweet.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sunwin and all our wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") for interim financial reporting. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods presented are unaudited and reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and operating results for the periods presented. Certain financial statement amounts relating to prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes for the year ended April 30, 20212022 included in our Form 10-K as filed with the SEC. The results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended July 31, 20212022 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or cash flows which may be reported for future periods or the full fiscal year.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 20212022 contained herein has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of April 30, 2021,2022, but do not include all disclosures required by the U.S. GAAP.

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Sunwin and all our wholly-owned subsidiaries included in continuing operations and discontinued operations. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Qufu Shengwang is the subsidiary with discontinued operations and our subsidiaries for continuing operations include the following:

-     Qufu Natural Green;

-     Qufu Shengren;

-     Sunwin USA; and

-     Qufu Shengren Import and Export

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts, the allowance for obsolete inventory, the useful life of property and equipment and intangible assets, assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-term assets and valuation of deferred tax assets, and the value of stock-based compensation.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

We considerCash includes cash on hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid investmentsinstruments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash and equivalents. As of July 31, 2021, we held $489,079 of our cash and cash equivalents with commercial banking institutions in the PRC, and $181,353 with banks in the United States. As of April 30, 2021, we held $1,403,969 of our cash and cash equivalents with commercial banking institution in PRC, and $161,860 in the United States. PRC banks protect consumers against loss if their bank or thrift institution fails, and each of our PRC bank account is insured up to RMB500,000 (approximately $77,000), As a result, cash held in PRC financial institutions of $256,746 and $1,224,263 is not insured as of July 31, 2021 and April 30, 2021, respectively. We have not experienced any losses in such bank accounts through July 31, 2021.less.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Accounts receivable and other receivable are reported at net realizable value. We have 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 after exhaustive efforts on collection. We had noneno bad debt expense for allowance of allowance for doubtful accounts as ofduring the three months ended July 31, 20212022 and 2021. The balances for allowance of doubtful accounts were $78,122 and $79,886 on July 31, 2022 and April 30, 2021.2022, respectively.

- 6 -

INVENTORIES

Inventories, consisting of raw materials, work in process, and finished goods related to our products, are stated at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value that can be estimated utilizing the weighted moving average method. A reserve is established when management determines that certain slow-moving inventories may be sold at below book value. These reservesAdjustments are recorded to write down the carrying amount of any obsolete and excess inventory to its estimated net realizable value. We continually evaluate the recoverability based on estimates.  As of July 31, 2021, the Company did not record a reserve for slow-moving inventories.assumptions about future customer demand and market conditions. If inventory costs exceed expected market value due to obsolescence or quantities in excess of expected demand, the Company will record a write down of inventories for the difference between the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. As ofIn the three months ended July 31, 20212022 and April 30, 2021, the Company wrote down inventories of $78,280 and $187,704, and $1,276,893, respectively.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight linestraight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets, which range from two to thirty 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 paragraph 360-10-35-17 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"), 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.

The residual value rate and useful life of property and equipment are summarized as follows:

Included in property and equipment is construction-in-progress which consisted of factory improvements and machinery pending installation and included the costs of construction, machinery and equipment, and or any interest charges arising from borrowings used to finance these assets during the period of construction or installation of the assets if applicable. No provision for depreciation is made on construction-in-progress until such time as the relevant assets are completed and ready for their intended use.

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

In accordance with ASC 360, we review and evaluate our long-lived assets, including property and equipment, intangible assets, and land use rights, for impairment or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. An impairment is considered to exist if the total estimated future cash flows on an undiscounted basis are less than the carrying amount of the assets, including goodwill, if any. An impairment loss is measured and recorded based on discounted estimated future cash flows. In estimating future cash flows, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there is identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of future cash flows from other asset groups. Our estimates of future cash flows are based on numerous assumptions and it is possible that actual future cash flows will be significantly different than the estimates. Based on our evaluation, we have determined certain long-lived assets that are no longer useful for our operations, and we recorded a loss on disposition of property and equipment of $394,967$4,636 and $nil$394,967 on July 31, 20212022 and April 30, 2021, respectively.

LAND USE RIGHTS

According to the law of PRC, the government owns all the land in the PRC. Companies or individuals are authorized to possess and use the land only through land use rights granted by the Chinese government for a specified period of time. Land use rights are being amortized using the straight-line method over the periods the rights are granted.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

We adopted ASC Section 820-10-35-37 to measure the fair value of our financial instruments. ASC Section 820-10-35-37 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 ASC Section 820-10-35-37 did not have an impact on our financial position or operating results, but did expand certain disclosures.

- 7 -

ASC Section 820-10-35-37 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, ASC Section 820-10-35-37 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:

- 7 -

The carrying amounts of our financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, notes receivable, prepayments and other current assets, accounts payable, taxes payable and accrued expenses, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.  

TAXES PAYABLE

We are required to charge for and to collect value added taxes (VAT) on our sales on behalf of the PRC tax authority. We record VAT that we billed our customers as VAT payable. In addition, we are required to pay value added taxes on our primary purchases. We record VAT that is charged by our vendors as VAT receivable. We are required to file VAT return on a monthly basis with the PRC tax authority, in which we are entitled to claim the VAT that we are charged by vendors as VAT credit and these credits can be applied to our VAT payable that we billed our customers. Accordingly, these VAT payable and receivable are presented as net amounts for financial statement purposes. Taxes payable as of July 31, 20212022 and April 30, 20212022 amounted to $330,318$1,050,827 and $330,738,$812,545, respectively, consisted primarily of VAT taxes.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Pursuant to the guidance of ASC 606, we record revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. 

In accordance with ASC 606, we recognize revenues from the sale of stevia and other productions upon shipment and transfer of title based on the trade terms. All product sales with customer specific acceptance provisions are recognized upon customer acceptance and the delivery of the products. We report revenues net of applicable sales taxes and related surcharges. The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:

The Company is also a lessor, which is an entity that is lease underlying asset to the third party, The Company’s lease revenue is recognized under ASC Topic 842, Leases, (“ASC 842”), which was adopted on May 1, 2019. In general, the Company commences rental revenue recognition when the tenant takes possession of the leased space and the leased space is substantially ready for its intended use. The Company’s lease has been accounted for as operating lease. Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the lease of five years. Actual amounts billed in accordance with the lease during any given period may have been higher or lower than the amount of rental revenue recognized for the period. The difference by which straight-line rental revenue exceeded rents billed in accordance with lease agreements is recorded as “accounts receivable”. The difference by which rents billed in accordance with lease agreements exceeded straight-line rental revenue is recorded as “advances from customer”. The Company does not offset lease income and lease expense.

GRANT INCOME

Grants received from PRC government agencies are recognized as deferred grant income and recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as and when they are earned for the specific research and development projects for which these grants are designated for.

- 8 -

INCOME TAXES

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 740-10, Income Taxes ("ASC 740-10") which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns.  Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  Valuation allowances are recorded to reduce the deferred tax assets to an amount that it is more likely than not be realized.

We file federal and state income tax returns in the United States for our corporate operations pursuant to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and file separate foreign tax returns for our Chinese subsidiaries pursuant to the China's Unified Corporate Income Tax Law.

- 8 -

We apply the provisions of ASC 740-10-50, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes", which provides clarification related to the process associated with accounting for uncertain tax positions recognized in our consolidated financial statements. Audit periods remain open for review until the statute of limitations has passed. The completion of review or the expiration of the statute of limitations for a given audit period could result in an adjustment to the Company's liability for income taxes. Any such adjustment could be material to the Company's results of operations for any given quarterly or annual period based, in part, upon the results of operations for the given period. As of July 31, 2021,2022, the Company had no uncertain tax positions, and will continue to evaluate for uncertain positions in the future.

BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE

Pursuant to ASC Section 260-10-45, basic loss per common share is computed by dividing loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted 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 ours, subject to anti-dilution limitations. The following table presents a reconciliation of basic and diluted net income per common share:

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 ASC Section 830-20-35 and are included in determining net income or loss.

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the parent company is the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of the Company's operating subsidiaries is the Chinese Renminbi ("RMB").  In accordance with ASC 830-20-35, the consolidated financial statements were translated into United States dollars using balance sheet date rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for the income statements and cash flows. Equity accounts were stated at their historical rate. 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 other comprehensive income or loss.

- 9 -

RMB is not a fully convertible currency. All foreign exchange transactions involving RMB must take place either through the People's Bank of China (the "PBOC") or other institutions authorized to buy and sell foreign exchange. The exchange rate adopted for the foreign exchange transactions are the rates of exchange quoted by the PBOC, which are determined largely by supply and demand. Translation of amounts from RMB into United States dollars ("$") was made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods:

- 9 -

COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

   Comprehensive loss is comprised of net loss and all changes to the statements of stockholders' equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders. For the Company, comprehensive loss for the three months ended July 31, 20212022 and 20202021 included net loss and unrealized gains from foreign currency translation adjustments. 

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. Research and development costs are incurred on a project specific basis. Research and development costs were $355,713$435,568 and $361,438$355,713 for the three months ended July 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, respectively.

SHIPPING COSTS

Shipping costs are included in selling expenses and totaled $20,161$24,252 and $16,516$20,161 for the three months ended July 31, 20212022 and 2020, respectively.

ADVERTISING

              Advertising is expensed as incurred and is included in selling expenses and totaled $0 and $14,433 for the three months ended July 31, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company uses the "management approach" in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company's chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company's reportable segments. The Company's chief operating decision maker has been identified as the chief executive officer of the Company who reviews financial information of separate operating segments based on U.S. GAAP. The chief operating decision maker now reviews results analyzed by customer. This analysis is only presented at the revenue level with no allocation of direct or indirect costs. Consequently, the Company has determined that it has only one operating segment.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12 - Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This ASU provides an exception to the general methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period when a year-to-date loss exceeds the anticipated loss for the year. This update also (1) requires an entity to recognize a franchise tax (or similar tax) that is partially based on income as an income-based tax and account for any incremental amount incurred as a non-income-based tax, (2) requires an entity to evaluate when a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill should be considered part of the business combination in which goodwill was originally recognized for accounting purposes and when it should be considered a separate transaction, and (3) requires that an entity reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

- 10 -

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019, excluding entities eligible to be smaller reporting company. For all other entities, the requirements are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. ASU 2016-13 has been amended by ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, and ASU 2019-11. For entities that have not yet adopted ASU No. 2016-13, the effective dates and transition methodology for ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, and ASU 2019-11 are the same as the effective dates and transition methodology in ASU 2016-13. The Company did not adopt this standard yet due to the status of smaller reporting company. We plan to adopt this standard for the year beginning May 1, 2023. We do not expect the adoption of this standard will have material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

- 10 -

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, we have not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to our consolidated financial statements.

GOING CONCERN

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern.  The Company has incurred recurring losses with a net loss of approximately $750,000$194,000 for the three months ended July 31, 20212022 and has a significant accumulated deficit of $43.8$46.4 million as of July 31, 2021.2022. The Company's cash balance and revenues generated are not currently sufficient and cannot be projected to cover operating expenses for the next twelve months from the date of this report. These factors raise doubt as to the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Management's plans include attempting to improve its business profitability, its ability to generate sufficient cash flow from its operations to meet its operating needs on a timely basis, obtain additional working capital funds through debt and equity financings, and restructure on-going operations to eliminate inefficiencies to raise cash balance in order to meet its anticipated cash requirements for the next twelve months from the date of this report. Management intends to make every effort to identify and develop sources of funds.  The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time.  There can be no assurance that any additional financings will be available to the Company on satisfactory terms and conditions, if at all.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations and raise additional capital. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amount or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 - NONCONTROLLING INTEREST

Noncontrolling interest on the consolidated balance sheets resulted from the consolidation of Shengren, a 61.3% owned subsidiary starting from April 30, 2021.2020. An individual investor and Shandong Yulong Mining Group Co., Ltd. (“Yulong”) hold 38.4% and 0.3% of the equity interest in Shengren effective at the end of date, April 30, 2021,2020, respectively, pursuant to a series of debt transfer and conversion agreements entered into on April 30, 2020 between seven individual creditors and three suppliers, an individual investor with Yulong and Qufu Shengren.

-Less than 10%. 

(iii)    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 the PRC. As of July 31, 20212022 and April 30, 2021,2022, we had $820,149$924,204 and $1,054,090$303,160 of cash balance held in PRC banks, respectively. PRC banks protect consumers against loss if their bank or thrift institution fails, and each of our PRC bank account is insured up to RMB500,000 (approximately $71,000)$74,000). As a result, cash held in PRC financial institutions of $721,996$758,486 and $946,274$119,250 are not insured as of July 31, 20212022 and April 30, 2021.2022. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts through July 31, 2021.2022. Our cash position by geographic area was as follows: 

Almost all of our 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 that the concentration of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited due to generally short payment terms. We also perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers to help further reduce potential credit risk.

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 the preceding unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes and our 20212022 Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ended April 30, 2021.2022.

OVERVIEW

We sell stevioside, a natural sweetener. Stevioside is a natural zero calorie sweetener extracted from the leaf of the stevia plants. Substantially all of our operations are located in the PRC. We have built an integrated company with the production and distribution capabilities designed to meet the needs of our customers.

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

Going Concern

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has a significant accumulated deficit and incurred recurring losses. The Company's cash balance and revenues generated are not currently sufficient and cannot be projected to cover operating expenses for the next twelve months from the date of this report. These factors raise doubt as to the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Management's plans include attempting to improve its business profitability, its ability to generate sufficient cash flow from its operations to meet its operating needs on a timely basis, obtain additional working capital funds through debt and equity financings, and restructure on-going operations to eliminate inefficiencies to raise cash balance in order to meet its anticipated cash requirements for the next twelve months from the date of this report. Management intends to make every effort to improve its current sales forecast to further develop and expand the international markets for its new products as well as continuing with the current sources of funds to meet working capitals needs on as needed basis.  There can be no assurance that these plans and arrangements will be successful.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations and raise additional capital. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amount or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Recent Developments

Consequently, the COVID-19 pandemic may adversely affect the Company’s business operations, financial condition and operating results for 2021 and 2022,2023, including but not limited to material negative impact to the Company’s total revenues, production capability, ability to conduct marketing and sales, and slower collection of accounts receivables. We are able to maintain certain income from previous existing orders and finished products, however, we believe the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic will be most significant in our raw material purchasing and our sales. Due to the effect of the global COVID-19 pandemic, we expect the sourcing and availability of stevia raw material will have increased difficulties and costs for fiscal 2022.2023.

We are monitoring the global outbreak and spread of COVID-19 and taking steps in an effort to identify and mitigate the adverse impacts on, and risks to, our business posed by its spread and the governmental and community reactions thereto. We continue to assess and update our business continuity plans in the context of this pandemic, including taking steps in an effort to help keep our workforces healthy and safe. We are also working with our suppliers to understand the existing and future negative impacts, and to take actions in an effort to mitigate such impacts. Due to the speed with which the COVID-19 pandemic is developing, the global breadth of its spread and the range of governmental and community reactions thereto, there is uncertainty around its duration and ultimate impact; therefore, any negative impact on our overall financial and operating results (including without limitation our liquidity) cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, but the pandemic could lead to extended disruption of economic activity and the impact on our financial and operating results.

OUR PERFORMANCE

 Our revenues totaled approximately $6,268,000$7,710,000 during the three months ended July 31, 2021, a decrease2022, an increase of 11.0%23.0%, as compared with the same period in 2020,2021, and our gross margin increased to 14.1%15.0% from 2.4%14.1%. Our total operating expenses in the three months ended July 31, 2021 decreased2022 increased by approximately $6,000,$93,000, or 0.6%8.1% compared to the same period in 20202021 primarily due to a decreasean increase of approximately $59,000,$31,000, or 12.4%8.3% in general and administrativeselling expense and a decreasean increase of approximately $6,000,$80,000, or 1.6%22.4% in research and development expenses, offset by an increasea decrease of approximately $58,000,$18,000, or 18.6%4.3% in sellinggeneral and administrative expense. Our net loss for the three months ended July 31, 20212022 was approximately $750,000,$194,000, compared to a net loss $1,056,000$750,000 in the same period in fiscal 2021.2022.

While we have broadened our stevia product offerings to include a number of higher quality stevia grades needed in new product formulations we are developing to introduce to the U.S. and European food and beverage industry, the demand for higher grade stevia products has yet to materialize to the degree we had anticipated, and we hope that our sales volume in higher grade stevia products will increase in fiscal 20222023 as demand resumes and increases after the effects of the global pandemic. Stevia has become more widely accepted by the food industry and many new stevia manufacturers have entered this industry in the past few years; recently we have introduced a new product line. We are now focusing on new types of stevia products, including tablets, liquid, High A products, and others. We expect to consistently increase our sales of our new products; however, we cannot quantify this increase and its effects on future periods.

Our Outlook

We believe that there are significant opportunities for worldwide growth in our Stevioside segment, not only in the U.S. and EU markets but also in our domestic market. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 20212023 and beyond, we will continue to focus on our core business of producing and selling stevioside series products.

Currently there is a world-wide movement of lowering sugar intake, and more and more consumers are becoming aware of the health benefits associated with reduction of sugar intake. According to research data, 40% of Chinese consumers stated that they "will not mind paying more for food and beverages with more natural ingredients" and 80% of the interview consumers express a goal of "having a healthier diet". We believe that, in this search of a more natural and healthy diet and lifestyle, natural sweeteners such as stevia will become the mainstream sweetener in the food and beverage markets.

Some of the recent favorable observations related to the stevia markets in fiscal 2020 include:

Meanwhile, we are also facing challenges in competitive pricing and raw materials for the fiscal years ended April 30, 20212023 and 2020,2022, as well as negative impact from the global COVID-19 pandemic. During the fiscal years ended April 30, 2021,2022, the market prices of stevioside products continue to be impacted by strong price competition among Chinese manufacturers. With this being a product gaining large market shares in China, in the recent years we have seen many competitors entering the market. These new competitors use lower pricing as their effort to gain market share as they initially entering the market, thus driving down the average prices for stevia products. We expect the pressure from pricing competition to continue in fiscal 2022.2023. We anticipate the price of stevia leaves, the raw material used to produce our stevioside series products, will also continue to increase in fiscal 20222023 since the demand for raw material may increase as the market grows, while the production of the raw material experiences negative impact due to the global pandemic.

We intend to make adjustments internally in order to better operate in this market; our goal is to increase sales and develop new client bases through our marketing effort, decrease our production expenses while maintaining the stability and quality of our products, and decrease our overall expenditures. We believe while there are challenges and risks in this market, our high quality high grade product and the formulations developed by our internal research and development team differentiates us from other competitors and our efforts will lead to sustainable growth in the future.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following table summarizes our results from operations for the three month periods ended July 31, 20212022 and 2020.2021. The percentages represent each line item as a percent of revenues: 

Revenues

Total revenues in the three months ended July 31, 2021 decreased2022 increased by approximately 11.0%23.0%, as compared to the same period in 2020.2021. Stevioside revenues, which accounts for 98.3%98.7% and 98.6%98.3% of our total revenues in the three months ended July 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, respectively, decreasedincreased by approximately 11.2%23.5%, but weprimarily due to an increasing demand from both domestic and overseas markets as the industries recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. We sold 214264 metric tons and 180214 metric tons of stevioside for the three months ended July 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, respectively. Our Stevioside segment, revenues from sales to third parties decreased by 27.3%, from 74.8% to 61.3% of total revenue of Stevioside segment in the three months ended July 31, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to a decreasing demand from domestic markets after COVID-19 pandemic. Our sales to the related party increased by 36.2%, from 24.9% to 38.1% of total revenue in the three months ended July 31, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to an increasing demand from the oversea market and the results of our effort to develop sales in the international market. Since we do not have the authorization to export products from China, we outsourced our exporting business to a related party, Qufu Shengwang Import and Export Corporation, which has authorizations to export.respectively,  

Our products including enzyme treated stevia have been well accepted by the market, especially in the U.S..  We generated approximately $1,690,000$3,014,000 and $1,340,000$1,690,000 in revenue from producing over 5593 metric tons and 4055 metric tons of the customized orders for restructuring by enzyme based on our Stevioside products which accounted for approximately 28%37% and 19%28% of our total revenues of Sativoside segment in the three months ended July 31, 20212022 and 2020,2021, respectively.

Our unit sale price fluctuated from month to month in the three months ended July 31, 2021,2022, which was mainly affected by the market environment; the average unit sales price of our stevia products has decreased because of our effort to stay ahead of competition and to gain market share for the three months ended July 31, 2021,2022, as compared to the same period in 2020.2021. We are facing challenges in competitive pricing and sourcing of raw materials, and the market prices of stevioside products were impacted by strong price competition among Chinese manufacturers. We also anticipate the price of stevia leaves, the raw material used to produce our stevioside series products, to continue to increase in the near future. With the restructuring of our product line, we also continue to increase the sales of our low grade stevia products. In the three months ended July 31, 2021,2022, some of our stevia products, such as A3-98, A3-97, A3-95, A3-80, A3-60,A3-90, and A3-50,A3-80, were sold for a loss in order to avoid further losses resulting from spoilage of overstocked inventory.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Margin

Cost of revenues includes the cost of raw materials, labor, depreciation, and other fixed and variable overhead costs. Cost of revenues in the three months ended July 31, 2021 decreased2022 increased by 21.6%21.7%, compared to the same period in 2020.2021. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues increaseddecreased from 97.6%85.9% to 85.9%85.0% during the three months ended July 31, 20212022 compared to the same period in 2020.2021. Gross margin in Stevioside segment increased from 1.8%13.3% to 13.3%14.4% for the three months ended by July 31, 2021, compared the same period in 2020.2021. Our consolidated gross margin for the three months ended by July 31, 20212022 was 14.1%15.0%, as compared to 2.4%14.1% in the same period in 2020,2021, which was primarily due to the epidemica reduction of the novel strainhigher production costs we experienced during the height of coronavirus COVID-19the pandemic adversely affected businesses and economic activities inthat we were able to sell more of our overstocked inventories from 2021.

We believe the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic is the most significant in our raw material purchasing and our sales. Due to the effect of the global COVID-19 pandemic, we expect the sourcing and availability of stevia raw material will have increased difficulties and costs for fiscal 2022.2023. February to March is normally the nursing period for stevia plants; as a result of COVID-19 related gathering laws, farmers are not able to have the same amount of nursery workers as previous years, resulting in a decrease of stevia plants, and relevant safety measures also resulted in an increase of general planting costs. We expect this to cause a shortage of stevia leaves harvest this year and along with the effect of the rain seasons, we expect to see an increase in our cost of raw material. After we resumed production, the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on transportation has also made it difficult for us to efficiently procure our raw materials.

Net Loss Attributable to Noncontrolling Interest

Noncontrolling interest represents the ownership interests an individual investor and Shangdong Yulong Mining Group Co., Ltd. ("Yulong") hold in Qufu Shengren. The amount recorded as noncontrolling interest in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss is computed by multiplying the after-tax loss by 38.7%, the percentage ownership in Qufu Shengren not directly attributable to us.  Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest amounted to $290,000$73,000 and $393,000$290,000 for the three months ended July 31, 20212022 and 2020.2021.

Foreign Currency Translation Gain

The functional currency of our subsidiaries and variable interest entities operating in the PRC is the Chinese Yuan or Renminbi ("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 period) for revenues, costs, and expenses. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange translations are included in the Comprehensive loss on the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As a result of foreign currency translations, which are a non-cash adjustment, we reported a foreign currency translation loss of $48,000 and gain of $10,000 and $131,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, respectively. ThisThese non-cash loss and gain had the effect of reducing our reported comprehensive loss. 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate sufficient cash to meet its operational cash requirements.  

On July 31, 2021,2022, we had working capital deficit of approximately $3,112,000,$5,748,000, including cash of approximately $670,000,$943,000, as compared to working deficit of $1,089,000,$5,949,000, including cash of approximately $1,566,000$321,000 at April 30, 2021.2022. The approximate $895,000 decrease$622,000 increase in our cash at July 31, 20212022 from April 30, 20212022 is primarily attributable to net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $1,831,000 and$1,035,000, offset by net cash used in investing activities of approximately $2,058,000, offset by$56,000, net cash provided byused in financing activities of approximately $2,984,000$348,000 and effect of exchange rate on cash of $9,000 during the three months ended July 31, 2021.2022. The Company's cash balance and revenues generated are not currently sufficient and cannot be projected to cover operating expenses for the next twelve months from the date of this report. These factors raise doubt as to the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Management's plans include attempting to improve its business profitability, its ability to generate sufficient cash flow from its operations to meet its operating needs on a timely basis, obtain additional working capital funds through debt and equity financings, and restructure on-going operations to eliminate inefficiencies to raise cash balance in order to meet its anticipated cash requirements for the next twelve months from the date of this report. Management intends to make every effort to improve its current sales force as to further develop and expand the international markets for its new products as well as continuing with the current sources of funds to meet working capital needs on as needed basis.  There can be no assurance that these plans and arrangements will be successful.

The COVID-19 Pandemic. On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus outbreak a "Public Health Emergency of International Concern" and on March 10, 2020, declared it to be a pandemic. Actions taken around the world to help mitigate the spread of the coronavirus include restrictions on travel, quarantines in certain areas, and forced closures for certain types of public places and businesses. The coronavirus and actions taken to mitigate it have had and are expected to continue to have an adverse impact on the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the geographical areas in China in which the Company operates. Consequently, the COVID-19 pandemic may adversely affect the Company’s business operations, financial condition and operating results for 2020,2022 and 2023, including but not limited to material negative impact to the Company’s total revenues, slower collection of accounts receivables and significant impairment to the Company’s equity investments. Due to the high uncertainty of the evolving situation, the Company has limited visibility on the full impact brought upon by the COVID-19 pandemic and the related financial impact cannot be estimated at this time.

Capital Resources

The following table provides certain selected balance sheets comparisons as of July 31, 20212022 and April 30, 2021:2022:

We maintain cash and cash equivalents in China and United States. On July 31, 20212022 and April 30, 2021,2022, bank deposits were as follows:

The majority of our cash balances on July 31, 20212022 are in the form of RMB stored in a bank account ofin China. Cash held in banks in the PRC is not insured. The value of cash on deposit in mainland China of $489,079approximately $924,000 as of July 31, 20212022 has been converted based on the exchange rate as of July 31, 2021.2022. In 1996, the Chinese government introduced regulations, which relaxed restrictions on the conversion of the RMB; however, restrictions still remain, including but not limited to restrictions on foreign invested entities. Foreign invested entities may only buy, sell or remit foreign currencies after providing valid commercial documents at only those banks authorized to conduct foreign exchanges. Furthermore, the conversion of RMB for capital account items, including direct investments and loans, is subject to PRC government approval. Chinese entities are required to establish and maintain separate foreign exchange accounts for capital account items. We cannot be certain Chinese regulatory authorities will not impose more stringent restrictions on the convertibility of the RMB, especially with respect to foreign exchange transactions. Accordingly, cash on deposit in banks in the PRC is not readily deployable by us for use outside of China.

Accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts including accounts receivable from related parties, increased by approximately $1,299,000$2,257,000 during the three months ended July 31, 2021,2022, as a result of the increase in both accounts receivable from the third parties and accounts receivable from related partysales of product sold as of July 31, 2021.2022.

Inventories on July 31, 2021,2022, net of reserve for obsolescence, totaled approximately $11,948,000,$5,119,000, as compared to $12,930,000$5,564,000 as of April 30, 2021.2022. The decrease is primarily due to our decreaseincrease in procurementshigher sales volume during the three months ended July 31, 2022. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been minimal disruption in our supply chain network of certain raw materials in ordermaterials. We are not able to purchase enough leaves of the stevia to meet our anticipated lower sales volume during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2021. These inventories have not yet been sold due to the marketupcoming increase in demands not raising as much as we predicted; meanwhile, we did impairment and price adjustment on the inventories.

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 as a party, under which we have:

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 accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("U.S. GAAP").

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The SEC has defined a company's critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of the company's financial condition and results of operations, and which require the company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Based on this definition, we have identified the critical accounting policies and judgments addressed below. We also have other key accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are significant to understanding our results, which are described in Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Although we believe that our estimates, assumptions and judgments are reasonable, they are based upon information presently available. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions, judgments or conditions.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that such information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"), and our Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act. Our management is also required to assess and report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 ("Section 404"). As reported in our Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2021,2022, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 20212022 and, during our assessment, management identified significant deficiencies related to (i) the U.S. GAAP expertise of our internal accounting staff, (ii) our internal audit functions and (iii) a lack of segregation of duties within accounting functions. Although management believes that these deficiencies do not amount to a material weakness, our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective at April 30, 2021.2022.

Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. As a result, we have not been able to take steps to improve our internal controls over financial reporting during the three months ended July 31, 2021.2022. However, to the extent possible, we will implement procedures to assure that the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions will be performed by separate individuals.

A material weakness (within the meaning of PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 5) is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the company's financial reporting.

In light of this significant deficiency, we performed additional analyses and procedures in order to conclude that our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended July 31, 20212022 included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q were fairly stated in accordance with the U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, management believes that despite our significant deficiency, our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended July 31, 20212022 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with the U.S. GAAP.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation of our controls performed during the three months ended July 31, 20212022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
