This Quarterly Report contains certain forward-looking statements. When used in this Quarterly Report, statements which are not historical in nature, including the words “anticipate,” “estimate,” “should,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “project,” “plan” or “continue,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. They also include statements containing anticipated business developments, a projection of revenues, earnings or losses, capital expenditures, dividends, capital structure or other financial terms.

The forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report are based upon management’s beliefs, assumptions and expectations of our future operations and economic performance, taking into account the information currently available to them. These statements are not statements of historical fact. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, some of which are not currently known to us that may cause our actual results, performance or financial condition to be materially different from the expectations of future results, performance or financial condition we express or imply in any forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on our current plans and expectations and are subject to a number of uncertainties and risks that could significantly affect current plans and expectations and our future financial condition and results.

We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed in this filing might not occur. We qualify any and all of our forward-looking statements entirely by these cautionary factors. As a consequence, current plans, anticipated actions and future financial conditions and results may differ from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on our behalf. You are cautioned not to unduly rely on such forward-looking statements when evaluating the information presented herein.

Management’s Representation of the consolidated financial statements for April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011.Interim Financial Statements

a.Basis of presentation of financial statements

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company uses the same accounting policies in preparing quarterly and annual financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as allowed by such rules and regulations, and management believes that the disclosures are expressed in terms of US dollars.

The Company operates in one operating segment in accordance with accounting guidance FASB ASC Topic 280,“Segment Reporting”. Our CEO has been identified asadequate to make the chief operating decision maker as defined by FASB ASC Topic 280.

b.Principles of consolidation

Theinformation presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements include all of the adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary to a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements of CBPshould be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and its subsidiaries.notes thereto at October 31, 2020 as presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Going Concern

 

All inter-company transactions and balancesThe accompanying financial statements have been eliminated in consolidation.

FASB ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation”,requires noncontrolling minority interests to representprepared assuming the portion of earnings that is not within the parent company’s control. The noncontrolling minority interests are required to be reported as equity instead ofCompany will continue as a liability ongoing concern, which contemplates the balance sheet.  In addition this statement requires net income from noncontrolling minority interest to be shown separately onrealization of assets and the condensed consolidated statementssatisfaction of operations and comprehensive income. The Company has no noncontrolling interest asliabilities in the normal course of business for the twelve months following the date of these financial statements. As of April 30, 20122021, the Company had no cash and October 31, 2011.an accumulated deficit of $11,763,734.

 

c.Use of estimates

Because the Company does not expect that existing operational cash flow will be sufficient to fund presently anticipated operations, this raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Therefore, the Company will need to raise additional funds and is currently exploring alternative sources of financing. Recently the Company being funded by David Lazar who extended interest-free demand loans to the Company. Historically, the Company raised capital through private placements, to finance working capital needs and may attempt to raise capital through the sale of common stock or other securities and obtaining some short-term loans. The Company will be required to continue to so until its operations become profitable. Also, the Company has, in the past, paid for consulting services with its common stock to maximize working capital, and intends to continue this practice where feasible.

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affectedaffect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the datesdate of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of net salesrevenues and expenses during the reported periods.

Significantreporting period. The most significant estimates relate to income taxes and contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known or expected trends, and various other assumptions by management include, among others, uncollectible accounts receivable, slow moving, obsolete and/or damaged inventory,that are believed to be reasonable given the quality of information available as of the date of these financial statements. The results of these assumptions provide the basis for making estimates about the carrying amountamounts of propertyassets and equipment and intangible assets, reserve for employee benefit obligations, stock warrant valuation, share-based compensation, noncash rental expense andliabilities that are not readily apparent from other uncertainties.sources. Actual results maycould differ from these estimates.  The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions.

d.Foreign currency translation

The Company’s principal country of operations is in PRC. The financial position and results of operations of the subsidiaries are determined using the local currency (“Renminbi” or “RMB”) as the functional currency.

Translation of amounts from RMB into US dollars for reporting purposes is performed by translating the results of operations denominated in foreign currency at the weighted average rate of exchange during the reporting period. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the market rate of exchange ruling at that date. The registered equity capital denominated in the functional currency is translated at the historical rate of exchange at the time of capital contribution. All translation adjustments resulting from the translation of the financial statements into the reporting currency (US dollars) are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity.

 

As of April 30, 2012Cash and October 31, 2011, the exchange rates were RMB 6.33 and RMB 6.38, respectively. For the three months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, the average exchange rates were RMB 6.32 and RMB 6.56 and the translation adjustments totaled ($810,353) and $1,511,453, respectively. For the six months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, the average exchange rates were RMB 6.34 and RMB 6.60, and the translation adjustments totaled $675,646 and $2,175,874, respectively.

e.Cash

There are no restriction to cash at April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011. Substantially all of the Company’s cash is held in bank accounts in the PRC and is not protected by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance or any other similar insurance.  Given the current economic environment and risks in the banking industry, there is a risk that deposits may not be readily available.

f.Trade receivables, net

Trade receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Trade receivable payment terms vary and amounts due from customers are stated in the condensed consolidated financial statements net of an allowance for doubtful accounts and sales rebates. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in its trade receivables.  Trade receivables outstanding longer than the payment terms are considered past due. The Company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time the trade receivable is past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the counter party’s current ability to pay its obligation to the Company, and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes off receivables when they are deemed uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such trade receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts.  There were no trade receivables write offs for the three and six months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

g.Inventory, net

Inventory consists of raw materials, packaging materials, work-in-progress and finished goods and is valued at the lower of cost or market value. The value of inventory is determined using the weighted average cost method and includes any related production overhead costs incurred in bringing the inventory to their present location and condition. Overhead costs included in finished goods include, direct labor cost and other costs directly applicable to the manufacturing process.equivalents

 

The Company estimatesconsiders all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an inventory allowance for excessive, slow moving and obsolete inventories as well as inventory whose carrying value is in excessoriginal maturity of net realizable value.  Inventory amounts are reported net of such allowances.  There were no inventory write offs for the three and six months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011.

h.Property and equipment, net

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period.

Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method.  The estimated useful lives for significant property and equipment categories are as follows:

Machinery and equipment10 years
Office equipment and furnishings5-10 years
Motor vehicles5-10 years

i.Intangible assets, net

Intangible assets consist of purchased patents and resource using right. Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment. Intangible assets with a finite useful life are amortized using the straight-line method over valid periods varied from 10 to 30 years, which is the estimated economic life of the intangible assets.

j.Accounting for the impairment of long-lived assets

The Company’s long-lived assets and other assets (consisting of property and equipment) are reviewed for impairment in accordance with the guidance of the FASB ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment,” FASB ASC Topic 350,"Intangibles - Goodwill and Others,"and FASB ASC Topic 205 “Presentation of Financial Statements.”  The Company tests for impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of an asset to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Impairment evaluations involve management’s estimates on asset useful lives and future cash flows.  Actual useful lives and cash flows could be different from those estimated by management which could have a material effect on our reporting results and financial positions.  Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary. Through the three and six months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company had not experienced impairment losses on its long-lived assets. However, there can be no assurances that demand for the Company’s products or services will continue, which could result in an impairment of long-lived assets in the future.

k.Fair value of financial instruments

The Company applies the provisions of accounting guidance, FASB ASC Topic 825 that requires all entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value, and defines fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties.equivalents. As of April 30, 20122021 and October 31, 20112020, the carrying value of cash, trade receivables, other receivables and accounts payable, approximated their fair value. All derivatives are recorded at fair value evaluated based on Black-Scholes option model.

l.Fair value measurements

The FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements.

Various inputs are considered when determining the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these securities.  These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

ŸLevel 1 – observable market inputs that are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

ŸLevel 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.).

ŸLevel 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of financial instruments).

The Company’s adoption of FASB ASC Topic 825 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The carrying value of financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value is measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. The Company had no financial assets or liabilities carried and measuredcash on a nonrecurring basis during the reporting periods. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared.hand.

Income taxes

 

The availability of inputs observable in the market varies from instrument to instrument and depends on a variety of factors including the type of instrument, whether the instrument is actively traded, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. For many financial instruments, pricing inputs are readily observable in the market, the valuation methodology used is widely accepted by market participants, and the valuation does not require significant management discretion. For other financial instruments, pricing inputs are less observable in the market and may require management judgment.

m.Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition,” which states that revenue should be recognized when the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) the service has been rendered; (3) the selling price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

Interest income is recognized when earned, taking into account the average principal amounts outstanding and the interest rates applicable.

During the three and six months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company has no sales or contracts that included multiple deliverables that would fall under the scope of FASB ASC Topic 605, “Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements – A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force.”

The Company provided annual sales rebates to its distributors based upon sales volumes.  Sales rebates are recorded as a current liability at the time of the sale based upon the Company’s estimates of whether each customer would be entitled to rebates for the period.  At quarter end, the accrued rebate amount is adjusted to the actual amount earned and reclassified to trade receivables in accordance with legal right of offset.  Sales rebates were deducted from sales in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. Sales rebates are calculated based on terms specified in contracts with individual distributors.

As of April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011, the Company has accrued $1,873,267 and $1,681,721, respectively, for sales rebates, which offset the balance of trade receivables.  For the three months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company has deducted sales rebates in the amount of $2,032,107 and $772,825, respectively, from sales. For the six months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company has deducted sales rebates in the amount of $4,652,799 and $4,204,694, respectively, from sales.

n.Sales returns and allowances

The Company does not allow return of products except for products that were damaged during shipment. The total amount of returned product is less than 0.05% of total sales. The cost of damaged products is netted against sales and cost of goods sold, respectively, and recorded as sales and marketing expenses.

o.Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold primarily consists of direct and indirect manufacturing costs, including raw material, packaging material, production overhead costs, city construction tax and educational tax for the products sold.

p.Sales and marketing

Sales and marketing costs consist primarily of advertising and market promotion expenses, and other overhead expenses incurred by the Company’s sales and marketing personnel. Sales and marketing expenses are expensed as incurred and amounted to $1,823,881 and $1,541,011 during the three months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $3,414,771 and $2,870,190 during the six months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

q.Research and development

Research and development (“R&D”) consists primarily of cost of materials and overhead expenses incurred by research and development staff. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses amounted to $792,097 and $718,512during the three months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $1,028,512 and $899,186 for the six months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

r.Employee benefit costs

According to the PRC regulations on pension, a company contributes to a defined contribution retirement plan organized by municipal government in the province in which the CBP China was registered and all qualified employees are eligible to participate in the plan. Contributions to the plan are calculated at 22% of the employees’ salaries above a fixed threshold amount.

s.Share-based compensation

For purposes of determining the variables used in the calculation of stock compensation expense under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 505, “Equity” and FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation,” we perform an analysis of current market data and historical Company data to calculate an estimate of implied volatility, the expected term of the option and the expected forfeiture rate. With the exception of the expected forfeiture rate, which is not an input, we use these estimates as variables in the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Depending upon the number of stock options granted, any fluctuations in these calculations could have a material effect on the results presented in our condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income. In addition, any differences between estimated forfeitures and actual forfeitures could also have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

t.Taxation

Taxation on profits earned in the PRC has been calculated on the estimated assessable profits for the year at the rates of taxation prevailing in the PRC in which the Company operates after taking into effect the benefits from any special tax credits or “tax holidays” allowed in the country of operations.

The Company accounts for income taxtaxes under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 740,”Accounting for Income Taxes,”Taxes” which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of the events that have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Deferred income taxes are recognized for all significant temporary differences between tax and financial statements bases of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are established against net deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company does not have any long-term deferred tax assets or liabilities in the PRC that will exist once the tax holiday expires. The Company does not have any significant deferred tax asset or liabilities that relate to tax jurisdictions not covered by the tax holiday.

The Company does not accrue United States income tax on unremitted earnings from foreign operations, as it is the Company’s intention to invest these earnings in the foreign operations indefinitely.

Generally, years beginning after fiscal 2006, the Company is open to examination by PRC taxing authorities.  In the United States, we are open to examination from 2006 onward.

Enterprise income tax

On March 16, 2007, the PRC National People’s Congress passed the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law (“New EIT Law”) which became effective on January 1, 2008.  Pursuant to the New EIT Law, a unified enterprise income tax rate of 25 percent and unified tax deduction standards will be applied consistently to both domestic-invested enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises.  However, the New EIT Law repealed most of the existing preferential tax rates and tax holidays.  A five-year transition period is allowed for enterprises that obtained preferential tax treatment under the prior tax regime.. Under the prior tax regime, foreign-invested enterprises were generally subject to a 30 percent federal tax rate plus a 3 percent local tax rate for a total tax rate of 33 percent.

CBP China secured preferential tax treatment in the jurisdiction where it conducts its manufacturing activity, where it was granted tax exemption of 10% from the government, for being a new and high-technology enterprise.

DeferredFASB ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis.bases. Deferred tax assets including tax loss and credit carry forwards, and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. TheUnder FASB ASC 740, the effect ofon deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred incomeFASB ASC 740-10-05, ”Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax expense represents the change during the periodpositions taken or expected to be taken in the deferreda tax assets and deferredreturn. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax liabilities. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and noncurrent based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets are reducedposition must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

A provision has not been made at April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011 for U.S. or additional foreign withholding taxes on approximately $99,532,485 of undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because it is the present intention of management to reinvest the undistributed earnings indefinitely in foreign operations. Generally, such earnings become subject to U.S. tax upon the remittance of dividends and under certain other circumstances. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of deferred tax liability on such undistributed earnings.taxing authorities.  

 

The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes that virtually allassesses the validity of its conclusions regarding uncertain tax positions inquarterly to determine if facts or circumstances have arisen that might cause it to change its judgment regarding the PRC are not freelikelihood of some degree of uncertainty due toa tax law and policy changes by the State. However, the Company cannot reasonably quantify political risk factors and thus must depend on guidance issued by current State officials.position’s sustainability under audit.

Net Loss per Share

 

Based on all known facts and circumstances and current tax law, the Company believes that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011 are not material to its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. The Company also believes that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011, if recognized, would not have a material effect on its effective tax rate. The Company further believes that there are no tax positions for which it is reasonably possible, based on current Chinese tax law and policy, that the unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease over the next 12 months producing, individually or in the aggregate, a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Value added tax

The Provisional Regulations of The People’s Republic of China Concerning Value Added Tax promulgated by the State Council came into effect on January 1, 1994. Under these regulations and the Implementing Rules of the Provisional Regulations of the PRC Concerning Value Added Tax, value added tax is imposed on goods sold in or imported into the PRC and on processing, repair and replacement services provided within the PRC.

Value added tax payable in The People’s Republic of China is charged on an aggregated basis at a rate of 13% or 17% (depending on the type of goods involved) on the full price collected for the goods sold or, in the case of taxable services provided, at a rate of 17% on the charges for the taxable services provided, but excluding, in respect of both goods and services, any amount paid in respect of value added tax included in the price or charges, and less any deductible value added tax already paid by the taxpayer on purchases of goods and services in the same financial year.

u.Comprehensive Income

Total comprehensive income is defined as all changes in shareholders’ equity during a period, other than those resulting from investments by and distributions to shareholders (i.e., issuance of equity securities and dividends).  Generally, for the Company, total comprehensive income equals net income plus or minus adjustments for currency translation.  Total comprehensive income represents the activity for a period net of related tax and was $7,039,768 and $8,592,509 for the three months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $20,832,999 and $20,205,225 for the six months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

While total comprehensive income is the activity in a period and is largely driven by net earnings in that period, accumulated other comprehensive income orNet loss (“AOCI”) represents the cumulative balance of other comprehensive income as of the balance sheet date.  For the Company, AOCI is primarily the cumulative balance related to the currency adjustments and increased overall equity by $9,296,341 and $8,620,695 as of April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011, respectively.

v.Earnings per share

Basic net earnings per common stock areshare is computed by dividing net earnings applicable to common shareholdersloss by the weighted-average number ofweighted average common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings per common stock is determined using the weighted-average number of common stockshares outstanding during the period adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, using the treasury stock method, consisting of shares that might be issued upon exercise of common stock warrants. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

The FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share,” requires the Company to include additional shares in the computation of earnings per share, assuming dilution.  The additional shares included in diluted earnings per share represent the number of shares that would be issued if all of the Company’s outstanding dilutive instruments were converted into common stock.

Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options are assumed to be exercised at the time of issuance, and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.share equivalents outstanding.

w.Warrants

The Company evaluates its warrants on an ongoing basis considering the accounting guidance of FASB ASC Topic 825, which establishes standards for issuers of financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity related to the classification and measurement of those instruments. The warrants are evaluated considering the accounting guidance of FASB ASC Topic 815, which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In accordance withThere are no recent accounting guidance FASB ASC Topic 825,pronouncements that impact the Company accounts for financial instruments as a liability if it embodies an obligation to repurchase the issuer’s equity shares, or is indexed to such an obligation, and that requires or may require the issuer to settle the obligation by transferring assets. Freestanding financial instruments are financial instruments that are entered into separately and apart from any of the entity’s other financial instruments or equity transactions, or that is entered into in conjunction with some other transaction and is legally detachable and separately exercisable. The liability recorded is at fair market value per Black-Scholes option model.

3.   ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTSNOTE 3 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11 Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities: The amendments in this Update will enhance disclosures required by U.S. GAAP by requiring improved information about financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either (1) offset in accordance with either Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45 or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement, irrespective of whether they are offset in accordance with either Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45. This information will enable users of an entity’s financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity’s financial position, including the effect or potential effect of rights of setoff associated with certain financial instruments and derivative instruments in the scope of this Update. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. It is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12 Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): In order to defer only those changes in Update 2011-05 that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments, the paragraphs in this Update supersede certain pending paragraphs in Update 2011-05. The amendments are being made to allow the Board time to redeliberate whether to present on the face of the financial statements the effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the components of net income and other comprehensive income for all periods presented. While the Board is considering the operational concerns about the presentation requirements for reclassification adjustments and the needs of financial statement users for additional information about reclassification adjustments, entities should continue to report 2 reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income consistent with the presentation requirements in effect before Update 2011-05. All other requirements in Update 2011-05 are not affected by this Update, including the requirement to report comprehensive income either in a single continuous financial statement or in two separate but consecutive financial statements. Public entities should apply these requirements for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. It is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

4.  CONCENTRATIONS OF BUSINESS AND CREDIT RISK

The Company conducts all of its primary trade in the PRC.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully conduct its trade, and failure to do so would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Also, the success of the Company’s operations is subject to numerous contingencies, some of which are beyond management’s control. These contingencies include general economic conditions, price of raw material, competition, governmental and political conditions, and changes in regulations. Because the Company is dependent on foreign trade in the PRC, the Company is subject to various additional political, economic and other uncertainties. Among other risks, the Company’s operations will be subject to risk of restrictions on transfer of funds, domestic and international customs, changing taxation policies, foreign exchange restrictions, and political and governmental regulations.

On March 25, 2010, the Company issued warrants (the “Warrants”) for 160,000 common shares to an investor relation service provider that have an exercise price of $2.00 per share and a contractual life of 3 years.  The terms of the Warrant agreement include the following factors that in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, requires that the Warrants be classified at their fair value to liabilities in each reporting period.

·The holder of the Warrants (the “Holder”) is entitled to the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration.  Noncompliance with such rules and regulations could result in the Company having to settle the Warrant obligation in cash.

·The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”) are subject to adjustment for standard dilutive events, including the issuance of common stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock, that will adversely affect the Holder’s rights under the Warrants.  There were no dilutive events for the three and six months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, which would have resulted in an adjustment to the exercise price or number of Warrant Shares.

The Company had no assets measured at fair value at April 30, 20122021 and October 31, 2011. The Company had the following warrant liability measured at fair value on April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011:

The Company used the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of the Warrants.  The valuation of warrants liability on April 30, 2012 was based on the assumptions noted in the following table.

Expected volatility76.77%
Expected dividends0%
Expected term (in years)0.9 years
Risk-free rate0.38%

18.           PREFERRED STOCK, COMMON STOCK AND EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

(1)  Preferred Stock

The Company’s articles of incorporation provide that our board of directors will be authorized to issue from time to time, without further stockholder approval, up to 1,000,000 additional shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix or alter the designations, preferences, rights and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the shares of each series, including the dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, rights of redemption, including sinking fund provisions, redemption price or prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or designations of any series. Such shares of preferred stock could have preferences over our common stock with respect to dividends and liquidation rights.  As of April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011, there is no preferred stock outstanding.


(2) Common Stock and Equity Transactions

On May 15, 2009, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,142,856 shares of the Company’s common stock and 1,071,428 warrants with an exercise price of $0.875 per share to Allied Merit International Investments, Inc. and Griffin Ventures Ltd. Total consideration of the issuance was $ 1,500,000.

The fair value of the warrants is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model to be $496,732. The valuation was based on the assumptions noted in the following table.

Expected volatility175.80%
Expected dividends0%
Expected term (in years)3 years
Risk-free rate1.375%

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect for the expected term of the warrants at the time of grant.  The dividend yield on our common stock is assumed to be zero since we do not pay dividends and have no current plans to pay them in the future.  The market price volatility of our common stock was based on historical volatility since May 15, 2008.  Our methodology is consistent with prior period volatility assumptions.  The expected life of the warrants is based upon our anticipated expectations of exercise behavior since no options have been exercised in the past to provide relevant historical data.

19.           OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

Share-based compensation amounted to $22,877 and $35,003 in the three months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $48,616 and $60,799, respectively, for the six months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011.

Base on the employment agreement, Mr. Dong received, on December 14, 2010, an option to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $2.15 per share under the 2003 Omnibus Plan. The option vests 60,000 shares on the first anniversary of the date of grant and 70,000 shares on each of the second and third anniversaries of the date of grant. The Option is conditioned upon continued employment on such date, and has a contractual life of 3 years.

The fair value of the option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model to be $259,251, of which $20,040 and $42,942 were recorded as compensation expenses for the three and six months ended April 30, 2012. The valuation was based on the assumptions noted in the following table.

Expected volatility96.46%
Expected dividends0.00%
Expected term (in years)3 years
Risk-free rate1.06%

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect for the expected term of the option at the time of grant.  The dividend yield on our common stock is assumed to be zero since we do not pay dividends and have no current plans to pay them in the future.  The market price volatility of our common stock was based on historical volatility since December 13, 2009.  Our methodology is consistent with prior period volatility assumptions.  The expected life of the options is based upon our anticipated expectations of exercise behavior since no options have been exercised in the past to provide relevant historical data.

 b)  On October 15, 2011, we enteredconvertible into an independent director agreement with Mr. Pan, who became our director on October 15, 2011. The agreement provides that Mr. Pan, the Chair of our Audit Committee, will receive (i) a fee of $2,500 per month, (ii) options to purchase 50,0001,000 shares of common stock under the 2003 Plan, at an exercise price of $0.80 per share, which is equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on October 15, 2011, subject to vesting on a quarterly basis (4,166 shares of option to vest on the first 11 quarter anniversaries of the grant and 4,174 shares of option to vest on the 12th quarter anniversary of the grant with the initial 4,166 shares of option vesting to commence on January 15, 2012), and with all vesting conditional upon continued service as a director of the Company as of each such anniversary; and (iii) a reimbursement of out-of pocket expenses incidental to his services on the Board. The agreement expires on the earlier of (i) the date Mr. Pan ceases to be a member of the board, or (ii) the date of termination of the Agreement.stock.

 


The fair value of the option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model to be $34,042, of which $2,837 and $5,674 were recorded as compensation expenses for the three and six months ended April 30, 2012.  The valuation was based on the assumptions noted in the following table.

Expected volatility127.76%
Expected dividends0.00%
Expected term (in years)3 years
Risk-free rate1.12%

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect for the expected term of the option at the time of grant.  The dividend yield on our common stock is assumed to be zero since we do not pay dividends and have no current plans to pay them in the future.  The market price volatility of our common stock was based on historical volatility since October 14, 2010.  Our methodology is consistent with prior period volatility assumptions.  The expected life of the options is based upon our anticipated expectations of exercise behavior since no options have been exercised in the past to provide relevant historical data.

(2)  2007 Non-Qualified Company Stock Grant and Option Plan

On March 19, 2007, our board of directors approved the 2007 Non-Qualified Company Stock Grant and Option Plan (the “2007 Plan”).   The 2007 Plan is intended to serve as an incentive to and to encourage stock ownership by our  directors, officers, and employees, and certain persons rendering service to us, so that such persons may acquire or increase their proprietary interest in our success, and to encourage them to remain in our service.  Under the 2007, up to 200,000 shares of our common stock may be subject to options.

20.       RESERVES

(1) Statutory reserves

Pursuant to the relevant laws and regulations of the PRC, the Company is required to annually transfer 10% of its after tax profit as reported on condensed consolidated financial statements prepared under the accounting principles of the PRC to a statutory surplus reserve fund until the balance reaches 50% of the registered share capital.  This reserve can be used to make up any losses incurred or to increase share capital.  Except for reducing losses incurred, any other application may not result in this reserve balance falling below 25% of the registered capital.

(2) Public welfare funds

Prior to January 1, 2007, the Company was required each year to transfer 5% of its after tax profit as reported on condensed consolidated financial statements prepared under the accounting principles of the PRC to the public welfare funds.  This reserve was restricted to capital expenditure for employees’ collective welfare facilities that are owned by the Company.  The public welfare funds are not available for distribution to the stockholders (except in liquidation).  Once capital expenditures for staff welfare facilities have been made, an equivalent amount must be transferred from the public welfare funds to the discretionary common reserve funds.  Due to a change in PRC law, appropriation of profit to the public welfare funds is no longer required.

The reserve funds as of April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011 were comprised of the following:

  2012  2011 
  US$  US$ 
       
Statutory surplus reserve  3,090,320   3,090,320 
Public welfare fund  282,377   282,377

21.           COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company has various purchase commitments for materials, supplies and services incident to the ordinary conduct of business, generally for quantities required for the Company’s business and at prevailing market prices. No material annual loss is expected from these commitments and there are no minimum purchase commitments.

The Company and its subsidiaries are self-insured, and they do not carry any property insurance, general liability insurance, or any other insurance that covers the risks of their business operations. As a result any material loss or damage to its properties or other assets, or personal injuries arising from its business operations would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and operations.

The Company is not involved in any legal matters arising in the normal course of business. While incapable of estimation, in the opinion of the management, the individual regulatory and legal matters in which it might involve in the future are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

22.           SUBSEQUENT EVENT

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued and has concluded no events need to be reported during this period.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

Organizational History of the Company and Overview

No Current Operations

Plan of Operation

The followingCompany has no operations from a continuing business other than the expenditures related to running the Company and has no revenue from continuing operations as of the date of this Report.

Management intends to explore and identify business opportunities within the U.S., including a potential acquisition of an operating entity through a reverse merger, asset purchase or similar transaction. Our Chief Executive Officer has experience in business consulting, although no assurances can be given that he can identify and implement a viable business strategy or that any such strategy will result in profits. Our ability to effectively identify, develop and implement a viable plan for our business may be hindered by risks and uncertainties which are beyond our control, including without limitation, the continued negative effects of the coronavirus pandemic on the U.S. and global economies. For more information about the risk of coronavirus on our business, see Item 1A “Risk Factors.”

We do not currently engage in any business activities that provide revenue or cash flow. During the next 12-month period we anticipate incurring costs in connection with investigating, evaluating, and negotiating potential business combinations, filing SEC reports, and consummating an acquisition of an operating business.

Given our limited capital resources, we may consider a business combination with an entity which has recently commenced operations, is a developing company or is otherwise in need of additional funds for the development of new products or services or expansion into new markets, or is an established business experiencing financial or operating difficulties and is in need of additional capital. Alternatively, a business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, an entity which desires access to the U.S. capital markets.

As of the date of this Report, our management has not had any discussions with any representative of any other entity regarding a potential business combination. Any target business that is selected may be financially unstable or in the early stages of development. In such event, we expect to be subject to numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of a financially unstable or early-stage entity. In addition, we may effect a business combination with an entity in an industry characterized by a high level of risk or in which our management has limited experience, and, although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular target business, there can be no assurance that we will properly ascertain or assess all significant risks.

Our management anticipates that we will likely only be able to effect one business combination due to our limited capital. This lack of diversification will likely pose a substantial risk in investing in the Company for the indefinite future because it will not permit us to offset potential losses from one venture or operating territory against gains from another. The risks we face will likely be heightened to the extent we acquire a business operating in a single industry or geographical region.

We anticipate that the selection of a business combination will be a complex and risk-prone process. Because of general economic conditions, including unfavorable conditions caused by the coronavirus pandemic, rapid technological advances being made in some industries and shortages of available capital, management believes that there are a number of firms seeking business opportunities at this time at discounted rates with which we will compete. We expect that any potentially available business combinations may appear in a variety of different industries or regions and at various stages of development, all of which will likely render the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complicated. Once we have developed and begun to implement our business plan, management intends to fund our working capital requirements through a combination of our existing funds and future issuances of debt or equity securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the implementation of a business plan and commencement of operations.


Based upon our current operations, we do not have sufficient working capital to fund our operations over the next 12 months. If we are able to close a reverse merger, it is likely we will need capital as a condition of closing that acquisition. Because of the uncertainties, we cannot be certain as to how much capital we need to raise or the type of securities we will be required to issue. In connection with a reverse merger, we will be required to issue a controlling block of our securities to the target’s shareholders which will be very dilutive. 

Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences, or privileges senior to our Common Stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations.

We anticipate that we will incur operating losses in the next 12 months, principally costs related to our being obligated to file reports with the SEC. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development.  Such risks for us include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model, recognition of revenue sources, and the management of growth. To address these risks, we must, among other things, develop, implement, and successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction withis based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.  In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs.  Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.  Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. See also Risk Factors contained in our Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2011.

Overview

We are a high-tech enterprise engaged in the research, development, manufacture, and distribution of botanical products, bio-pharmaceutical products, and traditional Chinese medicines, or TCM, in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”). We have three “Good Manufacturing Practice” or GMP certified production facilities - Ah City Natural and Biopharmaceutical plant, Dongfanghong pharmaceutical plant and Qingyang natural extraction plant - capable of producing 18 dosage forms and over 200 different products. Our products include but are not limited to (i) botanical anti-depression and nerve-regulation products, (ii) biopharmaceutical products, and (iii) botanical antibiotic and traditional over-the-counter (“OTC”) Chinese medicines. Botanical anti-depression and nerve-regulation products account for approximately 70% of our revenues and we intend to strengthen our development in this area. We have entered into sales agency agreements with our sales agents. Through our sales agent, we have sold our products to over 3,000 distributors and over 70 sales centers across 24 provinces in the PRC.

Recent Developments

Advertising Contract. On January 24, 2012, we entered into an advertising contract with Harbin Weishi Advertising Company to advertise our products from February 1, 2012 to January 31, 2013 for the total amount of $7,199,811, of which $1,799,953 has been paid.

Ah City Phase Two project. In January 2011, CBP China started its Ah City Phase Two project for Siberian Ginseng products development and industrialization and entered into a Construction and Engineering Design Contract (the “Contract”) with Heilongjiang Medical Architecture Design Institute (the “Institute”) for architectural design. A few payments have been made to the Institute and relevant local government departments for design and start up fees and we recorded $1,949,949 as Construction-in-progress for Ah City Phase Two project.prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or “GAAP.” The estimated total investment for Ah City Phase Two is $18,946,870. In anticipationpreparation of the project proceeding, we expect to pay approximately $9,418,173 in our fiscal year 2012 and $7,578,748 in our fiscal year 2013. The project is anticipated to be finished in 2013.

Tax Treatment of Subsidiary

As a recipient of the PRC’s State High-Tech Enterprise certificate, Harbin Renhuang Pharmaceutical Co. LTD (“CBP China”) is eligible for a number of national and local government support programs, including preferential tax treatment.  In order to receive these benefits CBP China must, on an annual basis, pass a High-Tech Enterprise assessment.  CBP China passed this assessment in February 2012 and, as a result, pays a reduced enterprise income tax rate of 15% in the year of 2012 compared with statutory enterprise income tax rate of 25%.

Critical Accounting Policies

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and our subsidiaries.  All transactions and balances among us and our subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Accounting Judgments and Estimates

Certain amounts included in or affecting our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures must be estimated, requiringrequires us to make certain assumptions with respect to values or conditions that cannot be known with certainty at the time the condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared. These estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts we report forof assets and liabilities, and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. In accordance with GAAP, we base our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Factors Affecting our Results of OperationsOff-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Our operating results are primarily affected by the following factors:

Pharmaceutical Industry Growth. We believe the market for pharmaceutical products in the PRC is growing rapidly driven by the PRC’s economic growth, increased pharmaceutical expenditure, an aging population, increased lifestyle-related diseases, government support of the pharmaceutical industry, as well as the increased availability of funding for medical insurance in the PRC. In particular, in January 2009, the PRC’s State Council passed a far-reaching medical reform plan (“Health Reform”) to help provide universal primary medical insurance coverage and increased access to medical facilities to a greater majority of its citizens. Both the central government of the PRC and provincial governments has published Lists of Essential Medicines to regulate the market. We expect these factors to continue to drive industry growth.

Pricing of Our Products. Seven of our products, which accounted for 43.7% and 35.3% of our total revenues before sales rebate in the three and six months ended April 30, 2012, are listed on the National or Provincial List of Essential Medicines published by the Chinese government, and therefore subject to government pricing limits. We do not believe pricing controls will influence our sales significantly and expect that the health care reform will help increase our sales.

Production Capacity. We believe much of the pharmaceutical market in the PRC is still underserved, particularly with respect to treatment of depression, melancholy and nerve regulation. The demand for our products that treat depression, melancholy and regulate nerves, continuously increased and we were able to increase our production of such products to capture much of this growth. We believe our current facilities with the ability to manufacture 18 dosage forms and over 200 products could not meet our future demand and we are building our Ah City Phase Two project, Depth Development and Industrialization of Siberian Ginseng, to produce more advanced Siberian Ginseng products and to allow us to capture future market growth and increase our revenue and market share accordingly.

Perceptions of Product Quality. We believe that rising health concerns in the PRC have contributed to a greater demand for health-care products with perceived health benefits. We believe many consumers in the PRC tend to prefer natural health care products with, we believe, limited side effects. Accordingly, we believe our reputation for quality and leadership position in a number of our products allow our products to command a higher average selling price and generate higher gross margins than our competitors.

Raw Material Supply and Prices. The per unit costs of producing our products are subject to the supply and price volatility of raw materials, which are affected by various market factors such as market demands, fluctuations in production and competition.

Expenses Associated with Research and Development. In order to enhance our existing products and develop new products for the market, we have devoted significant resources to research and development.

Expenses Associated with Sales and Marketing. In order to promote our product brand and gain greater market awareness, we have devoted significant resources to sales and marketing, in particular advertising activities.

Demand for Our Products. We expect the market demand for our botanic anti-depression and nerve-regulation products will increase along with the growth of the general market for such products.

Total Comprehensive Income

Total comprehensive income decreased by approximately $1.55 million, or 18%, from approximately $8.59 million for the three months ended April 30, 2011 to approximately $7.04 million for the three months ended April 30, 2012.  This decrease was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $4.15 million, or 22%, in net sales, and an increase of approximately $2.66 million, or 34%, in cost of goods sold and an increase of approximately $0.28 million, or 18%, in sales and marketing expenses, an decrease of approximately $0.04 million, or 5%, in general and administration expenses, an increase of approximately $0.07 million, or 10%, in research and development expenses, and an decrease of $2.32 million, or 154%, in cumulative currency translation adjustments. Our gross profit margin decreased from 59% for the three months ended April 30, 2011 to 55% for the three months ended April 30, 2012.

Sales

Our sales consist primarily of revenues generated from sales of botanical anti-depression and nerve regulation products, biopharmaceutical products and botanical antibiotics and traditional OTC Chinese medicines. Sales increased by approximately $4.15 million, or 22%, from approximately $18.87 million in three months ended April 30, 2011 to approximately $23.02 million in three months ended April 30, 2012. This increase in sales was primarily attributable to strong market acceptance of our Siberian Ginseng Series products, Compound Honeysuckle Granules and the contributions from Ginseng and Venison Extract (launched in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010) as a result of our marketing efforts.

We provide incentive sales rebates to our sales agents. The rebate rate, which is based on a product basis, averaged of 8% and 4% of total sales for the three months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Sales rebates are netted against total sales.

Since the selling price of all products increased in January 2011, we have experienced sales volume decrease from most of products in the year of 2011. After longer than expected stable period and the effort of propagation through advertisement and promotion, and the most important, the high quality of our products, we see our sales volume start to increase in the second quarter of 2012. This is a good sign of our future organic growth.

The PRC government is injecting funds into healthcare insurance system to reimburse full or part of the medical expenses consumed by Chinese citizen. We expect the Healthcare Reform, when fully in place, will greatly improve the affordability of healthcare cost of Chinese people and therefore further increase the demand for our products.  We have established Medical Reform Sales Department as a dedicated resource focused on capturing this tremendous growth opportunity.

In the third quarter of our fiscal year 2010, we introduced two new products to the market, Qing Re Jie Du Oral Liquid, which is used to cure seasonal flu, and Compound Schisandra Tablets, also known as magnolia vine, has been clinically proven to have significant benefits to the functioning and regulation of the central nervous system. In the last quarter of our fiscal year 2010, we introduced Ginseng and Venison Extract product to the market which nourishes the blood and kidney, restores the body's energy and increase endurance and has been in great demand since we launched the product. In the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011, we introduced Badger Oil which treats burns and scalds and attracted great attention from many patients.

The increase in average sales price per pack, as reflected in the following table, is primarily attributable to the change of currency translation from RMB to US Dollar. The average selling price of RMB has stayed the same for the three months ended at April 30, 2012 and 2011. The sales price of individual products are demonstrated in the following table, which reflects the average sales price per pack by product for the three months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011 and the percentage changes in the sales price per pack. The average prices per pack showing below are calculated from exact sales and quantities before rounded.

Ginseng and Venison Extract  135   130   3.8%
Badger Oil  271   261   3.8%

We expect the demand for our products will continue increase as we continue to garner greater market acceptance, in particular the benefits of our Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) Series in treating depression and nerve-regulation. We believe that we will have a continuous and stable sales increase in these products for fiscal year 2012. In addition, we anticipate that we will be successful in becoming one of the PRC’s essential medicine suppliers as the PRC government moves forward with its Health Reforms in 2012.

Cost of Goods Sold

Our costs of goods sold consist primarily of direct and indirect manufacturing costs, including production overhead costs, and handling costs for the products sold.  Costs of goods sold increased approximately $2.66 million, or 34%, from approximately $7.73 million for the three months ended April 30, 2011 to approximately $10.39 million for the three months ended April 30, 2012.  This increase was primarily attributable to the increase in Siberian Ginseng Series and Ginseng and Venison Extract products sold and increases in raw material prices as a result of inflation.

Although we anticipate that the cost of goods will increase due to inflationary price increases, we do not believe that such increases will be material for fiscal year 2012. We anticipate that beyond 2012, our price for raw materials and other production costs will continue to increase due to inflation. If our costs of goods increase, this may have a negative effect on our net income because due to market conditions and competitive conditions, we may not be able to increase the price for our products in proportion to the increase in costs of goods sold.

Operating and Administrative Expenses

Our total operating expenses consist primarily of sales and marketing expenses, general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses. Our total operating expenses increased by approximately $0.31 million, or 10%, from approximately $3.11 million for the three months ended April 30, 2011 to approximately $3.42 million for the three months ended April 30, 2012.

Sales and Marketing. Our sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of advertising and market promotion expenses, and other overhead expenses incurred by the Company’s sales and marketing personnel. Sales and marketing expenses increased approximately $0.28 million, or 18%, from approximately $1.54 million for the three months ended April 30, 2011 to approximately $1.82 million for the three months ended April 30, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $0.31 million, or 21%, in advertising expenses as the Company intensified TV advertisements in Heilongjiang province for our botanic anti-depression series. Sales and marketing expenses are likely to increase as we continue expanding our distribution network throughout the PRC and seek to increase our market share and awareness of our products.

General and Administrative. Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salary, travel, entertainment expenses, rental, benefits, share-based compensation, and professional service fees. General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $0.04 million, or 5%, from approximately $0.85 million for the three months ended April 30, 2011 to approximately $0.81 million for the three months ended April 30, 2012. This decrease was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $0.08 million in other service fees and a decrease of $0.10 million in legal service expenses. General and administrative expenses are likely to increase in the future as we expand our production, sourcing capacity, and distribution capacity throughout the PRC.

Research and Development. Our research and development expenses consist primarily of salary, equipment rental expenses, and Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) cultivation related expenses. Research and development expenses increased approximately $0.07 million, or 10%, from approximately $0.72 million for the three months ended April 30, 2011 to approximately $0.79 million for the three months ended April 30, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to development of Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) cultivation and extraction of effective components of the Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) plant, and development of other products, and research in cultivation techniques for Siberian Ginseng. Research and development expenses are likely to increase as we continue to devote our resources to development of new products and enhancement of our existing products.

Income before income tax expenses

 

As a result of the foregoing, our income before income tax expenses increased by approximately $1.19 million, or 15%, from approximately $8.05 million for the three months ended April 30, 2011 to approximately $9.24 million for the three months ended April 30, 2012.

Income Tax Expenses

The Company is subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. We currently do not pay tax in U.S. It is the present intention of management to reinvest the undistributed earnings indefinitely in foreign operations. Generally, such earnings become subject to U.S. tax upon the remittance of dividends and under certain other circumstances. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of deferred tax liability on such undistributed earnings. Our subsidiary registered in the PRC is subject to enterprise income taxes. For the calendar years of 2012 and 2011, CBP China was granted a 10% tax exemption, and pays enterprise income taxes of 15% in the PRC.

Cumulative Currency Translation Adjustments

Our principal country of operations is the PRC and our functional currency is the Renminbi, but our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar.  All translation adjustments resulting from the translation of our financial statements into U.S. dollars are reported as cumulative currency translation adjustments.  Our cumulative currency translation adjustments decreased by approximately $2.32 million, from approximately $1.51 million for the three months ended April 30, 2011 to approximately ($0.81) million for the three months ended April 30, 2012.

Sales

Our sales consist primarily of revenues generated from sales of botanical anti-depression and nerve regulation products, biopharmaceutical products and botanical antibiotics and traditional OTC Chinese medicines. Sales increased by approximately $9.66 million, or 23%, from approximately $41.50 million in six months ended April 30, 2011 to approximately $51.16 million in six months ended April 30, 2012. This increase in sales was primarily attributable to strong market acceptance of our Siberian Ginseng Series products, Compound Honeysuckle Granules and the contributions from Ginseng and Venison Extract (launched in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010) as a result of our marketing efforts.

We provide incentive sales rebates to our sales agents.

As a result of the foregoing, our income before income tax expenses increased by approximately $4 million, or 20%, from approximately $19.72 million for the six months ended April 30, 2011 to approximately $23.72 million for the six months ended April 30, 2012.

Income Tax Expenses

We are subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes.  Our subsidiary registered in the PRC is subject to enterprise income taxes.  For the calendar years of 2012 and 2011, CBP China was granted a 10% tax exemption, and pays enterprise income taxes of 15%.

Cumulative Currency Translation Adjustments

Our principal country of operations is the PRC and our functional currency is the Renminbi, but our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar.  All translation adjustments resulting from the translation of our financial statements into U.S. dollars are reported as cumulative currency translation adjustments.  Our cumulative currency translation adjustments decreased by approximately $1.50 million, from approximately $2.18 million for the six months ended April 30, 2011 to approximately $0.68 million for the six months ended April 30, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had retained earnings of approximately $99.53 million and $79.38 million as of April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011, respectively.  As of April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011, we had cash of approximately $32.11 million and $15.28 million, respectively, total current assets of approximately $73.73 million and $51.07 million, respectively. As of April 30, 2012 and October 31, 2011, we had a working capital surplus of approximately $64.95 million and $40.84 million, respectively. With the anticipated income from 2012, we believe our cash are adequate to satisfy our working capital needs and sustain our ongoing operations for the next twelve months.

Our summary of cash flow information is as follows:

  Six months ended April 30, 
Net cash provided by (used in): 2012  2011 
       
Operating activities $14,193,182  $16,100,490 
Investing activities $2,524,456  $(17,039,394)

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased approximately $1.91 million, from net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $16.10 million for the six months ended April 30, 2011 to net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $14.19 million for the six months ended April 30, 2012.  This decrease was primarily attributable to an increase in trade receivables of approximately $4.88 million, an increase in inventory of approximately $3.90 million, an increase in tax payable of approximately $2.67 million and offset by a decrease in other receivables of approximately $6.77 million, an increase in net income of approximately of $2.13 million.

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities increased approximately $19.56 million, from approximately $17.04 million used during the six months ended April 30, 2011 to approximately $2.52 million provided during the six months ended April 30, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to the payments made to purchase land use right, exclusive using right of undergrowth resources and construction-in-progress in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 and no cash used in investing activities in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2012.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

We did not have any financing activities during six months ended April 30, 2012 and 2011.

Trade Receivables

The net trade receivables increased approximately $5.22 million from approximately $21.55 million on October 31, 2011 to approximately $26.76 million on April 30, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to the result of our increased sales in the second quarter of our fiscal year 2012 compared with the sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011.

Inventory

Inventory amounts increased approximately $7.28 million from approximately $7.42 million on October 31, 2011 to approximately $14.69 million on April 30, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $3.82 million in raw materials from approximately $0.95 million on October 31, 2011 to $4.77 million on April 30, 2012, an increase of $1.74 million in packaging materials from $1.90 million on October 31, 2011 to $3.63 million on April 30, 2012 and an increase of $1.96 million in work-in-progress from $3.21 million on October 31, 2011 to $5.17 million on April 30, 2012.

Other Receivables

Other receivables decreased by $6.66 million from approximately $6.82 million at October 31, 2011 to $159 thousand at April 30, 2012. The Company advanced Siberian Ginseng payment to two of our employees in our Dongfanghong branch, Mr. Zhao, Fengwu and Mr. Deng, Fujie before October 31, 2011 for the purchasing of Siberian Ginseng raw material in the Siberian Ginseng harvest season. There was no such advance at April 30, 2012 resulting in decrease of other receivables.

Expansion Strategy

We believe the market for pharmaceutical products in the PRC is growing.  Our growth strategy involves capturing as much of this market as possible during this growth phase.  To implement this strategy we plan to strengthen our dominant position in the Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) market, expand our Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) cultivating bases and improving the quality standards of Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax), and extend our distribution network through internal distribution channels reforms. Our expansion strategy will require the continued retention and investment of our earnings from operations and, we believe, additional funding from private debt and equity financing.  In general, the commitment of funds to research and development, or acquisition or construction of plant and equipment tends to impair liquidity.  However, we believe that because of the upward trend in our revenues in recent years, even if this trend levels off, our income from continuing operations coupled with such additional financing, if required, should provide sufficient liquidity to meet our expansion needs.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and ProceduresProcedures.

 

AsOur management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of April 30, 2012, we carried out an evaluation,“disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such termExchange Act) that is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act”).   Accordingly, based upon that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effectivedesigned to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our periodicthe reports filedthat we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate 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 Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the parameters set forth above and has concluded that as of April 30, 2021, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles as a result of the following material weaknesses:

The Company does not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions due to only having one officer and limited resources.
The Company does not have an independent board of directors or an audit committee.
The Company does not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures.
All of the Company’s financial reporting is carried out by a financial consultant.

We plan to rectify these weaknesses by implementing an independent board of directors, establishing written policies and procedures for our internal control of financial reporting, and hiring additional accounting personnel at such time as we complete a reverse merger or similar business acquisition.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There have been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the six months ended April 30, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Controls

Since the third quarter ofCommission before purchasing our 2009 fiscal year, we have begun the implementation of remedial measures including hiring of a new chief financial officer in January 2010 (who resigned on August 3, 2010 for personal reason and was replaced by an interim chief financial officer. On December 14, 2010, we subsequently hired Mr. Weiqiu Dong as our new chief financial officer), adding additional staff, appointing three independent Directors to our board of directors, engaging consultants to advise management on the preparation of Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404 compliance with internal controls over financial reporting for fiscal year 2011, providing relevant training to our staff, implementing more rigorous policies and procedures relating to period-end financial reporting and other key processes, strengthening key controls such as journal-entry approval, reconciliation procedures and maintaining relevant supporting documentation. We expect to continue to implement additional financial and management controls and procedures going forward.  As results of these measures and until we have completed the remediation process, there has been and will be changes and further improvement to our internal controls over financial reporting.
