NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are expressed in US dollars.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the Unites States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, note payable, taxes payable and other payable.

Accounts receivable
The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. A reserve for allowances and doubtful accounts is established and recorded based on historical experience and the aging of the related accounts receivable.
Inventories
Inventories of cactus stock include trees and palms whose cost consists of seeds and an allocation of fertilizers, direct labor and overhead costs such as depreciation, rent, freight and fuel, among others. Inventories of cactus stock are stated at the lower of cost or market value, cost being calculated on the weighted average basis.

Intangible and Other Long-Lived Assets
Intangible and other long-lived assets are stated at cost, less accumulated amortization and impairments. Land use rights are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the related agreements, which range from 30 to 50 years. Other intangible assets consist of patents, licenses and trademarks. Patents, licenses and trademarks are amortized over their expected useful economic lives, which range from 4 to 15 years.
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may no longer be recoverable. The Company measures impairment by comparing the carrying value of the long-lived assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the assets, the Company would recognize an impairment loss based on the fair value of the assets.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue upon delivery of the products, at which time title passes to the customer provided that: there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance; persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; the sales price is fixed or determinable; and collectability is deemed probable.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. There were no significant advertising expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are recognized for temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements by applying enacted statutory tax rates expected to apply in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is not more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Current income taxes are provided for in accordance with the laws of the relevant taxing authorities.
Net Income Per Common Share
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted net income per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive securities (such as stock options, warrants, and convertible preferred stock) outstanding. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted net income per common share are excluded from the calculation.
The following table provides a reconciliation of common shares used in the basic net income per common share and diluted net income per common share computations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.
| | Three Months Ended | | | Six Months Ended | |

The Company uses the treasury stock method to account for the dilutive effect of unexercised stock options and warrants in diluted net income per common share. Anti-dilutive common shares related to stock options and warrants excluded from the computation of diluted net income per common share were 1,100,000 and 1,100,000, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 0 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.
Segment Information
The Company operates in one segment, the sale of products made from cactus plants. The Company sells its products through approximately 16 PRC distributors.
Statements of Cash Flows
In accordance with ASC Topic 230, “Statement of Cash Flows,” cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based upon the local currencies using the average translation rates. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets.

Total Financial Instruments | | 5,000,000 | | $ | 671,240 | |
Since at January 1, 2009 the carrying value of the outstanding financial instruments was $690,000, the Company recognized a cumulative effect adjustment resulting from a change in accounting principle of $18,760, or a net of $671,240. Accordingly, the unappropriated retained earnings balance at December 31, 2008 was increased from $11,604,285 to $11,623,045, as adjusted, on January 1, 2009.
The characteristics which require classification of the Series A Preferred Stock and warrants as liabilities are the Company’s obligations to reduce the conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock and the exercise price of the warrants in the event that the Company sells, grants, or issues any shares, options, warrants, or any convertible instrument at a price below the $0.60 current conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock or the current exercise prices of the warrants. As a result, the Company remeasures the fair values of these financial instruments each quarter, adjusts the liability balances, and reflects changes in operations as “income (expense) from revaluation of Series A Preferred Stock and A, B, C, and D warrants with characteristics of liabilities at fair values”.

The Company issued the Shares, the A Warrants and B Warrants on the same day. Westernking Financial Service acted as the sole placement agent in the transaction for a fee of $30,000 (6% of the gross proceeds).

The Series A Preferred Stock had no voting or dividend rights, was entitled to a liquidation preference of $0.60 per share, and each share was convertible into one share of Company common stock at the option of the holder (which was adjustable to more shares if certain “defined EPS” performance thresholds were not met for the six months ended September 30, 2008 or the year ended December 31, 2008; however, the performance thresholds were met). In addition, the Investor had the right to participate in any subsequent funding by the Company on a pro-rata basis at 100% of the offering price for a three month period following the closing. In addition, the conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock and the exercise price of the warrants were to be reduced in the event of any stock splits or stock dividends or in the event that the Company sells, grants, or issues any shares, options, warrants, or any convertible instrument at a price below the $0.60 current conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock or the current exercise prices of the warrants.
The Company recorded as a $196,500 deemed dividend and as a $196,500 increase in additional paid-in capital, the beneficial conversion feature allocated to the convertible preferred stock only ($196,500) based on a relative allocation of the fair values of the convertible preferred stock ($625,000), the A warrants ($477,250) and the B warrants ($488,250) to the gross actual proceeds received ($500,000). The fair value of the warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: stock price of $0.75 per share, exercise price of $0.75 per share for the A warrants, exercise price of $1.00 per share for the B warrants, term of 3 years, expected volatility of 74%, and risk-free interest rate of 4%.

The Company recorded as a $126,250 deemed dividend and as a $126,250 increase in additional paid-in capital, the beneficial conversion feature allocated to the convertible preferred stock only ($126,250) based on a relative allocation of the fair values of the convertible preferred stock ($287,083) and the warrants ($281,580) to the gross actual proceeds received ($250,000). The fair value of the warrants was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: stock price of $0.689 per share, exercise prices of $0.9375 and $1.25 per share, term of 3 years, expected volatility of 71.4%, and risk-free interest rate of 4%.

NOTE 14 - RESTRICTED NET ASSETS
Relevant PRC statutory laws and regulations permit payments of dividends by Harbin Hainan Kangda and Taishan Kangda only out of their retained earnings, if any, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, PRC laws and regulations require that annual appropriations of after-tax income should be set aside prior to payments of dividends as a reserve fund. As a result of these PRC laws and regulations, Harbin Hainan Kangda and Taishan Kangda are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets in the form of dividends, loans or advances, which restricted portion, amounted to $12,358,776 and $11,736,178 at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.
NOTE 15 - INCOME TAXES
The Company is subject to current income taxes on an entity basis on taxable income arising in or derived from the tax jurisdiction in which each entity is domiciled.
US China Kangtai was incorporated in the United States and is subject to United States income tax. No United States income taxes were provided in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 since US China Kangtai had taxable losses in those periods.
At June 30, 2011, US China Kangtai had an unrecognized deferred United States income tax liability relating to undistributed earnings of Harbin Hainan Kangda. These earnings are considered to be permanently invested in operations outside the United States. Generally, such earnings become subject to United States income tax upon the remittance of dividends and under certain other circumstances. Determination of the amount of the unrecognized deferred United States income tax liability with respect to such earnings is not practicable.
Based on management’s present assessment, the Company has not yet determined it to be more likely than not that a deferred tax asset of approximately $397,000 ($350,000 at December 31, 2010) attributable to the future utilization of the approximately $1,133,000 net operating loss carry forward of US China Kangtai as of June 30, 2011 will be realized. Accordingly, the Company has maintained a 100% allowance against the deferred tax asset in the financial statements at June 30, 2011. The Company will continue to review this valuation allowance and make adjustments as appropriate. The net operating loss carry forward expires in varying amounts from year 2020 to year 2031.
Current United States income tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited.

Harbin Hainan Kangda was approved as a wholly owned foreign enterprise in March 2005. The effective income tax rate was 15% for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. The income tax rate was increased to 25% beginning from January 1, 2010.

Concentrations and risks
Substantially all of the Company’s assets are located in China and 100% of the Company’s revenues have been derived from customers located in China.
Substantially all of Harbin Hainan Kangda and Taishan Kangda’s business operations are conducted in the PRC and governed by PRC laws and regulations. Because these laws and regulations are relatively new, the interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve uncertainties.
The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of RMB into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of the PRC. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payment of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from the transaction, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, approval from 25 appropriate governmental authorities is required where RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of the PRC to pay capital expenses, such as the repayment of bank loans denominated in foreign currencies. The PRC government may also at its discretion restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions.

Cooperation Processing Agreement
On February 14, 2011, Harbin Hainan Kangda entered into a Cooperation Processing Agreement with Shandong Qingdao Cigarette Factory (“Shandong Qingdao”). Under the agreement, Harbin has granted Shandong Qingdao the right to use Harbin’s cigarette trademarks and patents and provides Shandong Qingdao with dry cactus, fine cut tobacco, and certain other raw materials to assist Shandong Qingdao’s production of cigarette products for sale. Shandong Qingdao is responsible for the production of the cigarettes at its facilities and the sale of the cigarette products under its operating license to do so.
The agreement provides for monthly payments from Shandong Qingdao to Harbin equal to 30% of the prior month’s production amount (currently calculated at 2,700 RMB, or approximately $418, per box of 50 cartons) less processing fees (currently allocated at 660 RMB or approximately $102, per box of 50 cartons). Shangdong Qingdao retains the remaining 70% of the production amount (the aggregate production amount of 9,000 RMB, or $1,392 per box of 50 cartons) pursuant to the agreement since it is responsible for selling the cigarettes products. The net amounts receivable from Shandong Qingdao are reported by the Company in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income net of the Company’s raw material costs and the processing fee it incurs to Shandong Qingdao as “Production Revenue From Shandong Qingdao Processing, Net”.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes and the other financial information appearing in Part I, Item 1 and elsewhere in this report. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31.
Company Overview
The Company is principally engaged in the development, production, marketing and sales of products derived from Cactus plant and Cactus fruits. The Company’s product lines include cactus nutraceuticals, cactus nutritional food and drinks, cactus feed, and raw and intermediate materials.
The Company occupies 387 acres of cactus-farms in the Guangdong and Heilongjiang Provinces of China, of which approximately 245 acres are leased from third partied through operating leases on April 1, 2008 for a term of 30 years and of which the right of use of the 142 acres land are vested in the Company.
The Company predominantly grows three species of cacti -- Mexican Pyramid, Mexican Milpa-Alta and Mexican Queen. Mexican Pyramid and Mexican Queen cacti are used in cactus fruit drinks and nutraceutical products. Mexican Milpa-Alta is predominantly used in nutritional food products. Most of the fruit produced from the cactus plants is processed into cactus fruit juice, which is the raw material for our cactus nutritional drinks. Most of the harvested edible cacti are processed into dry powders, which are used in our cactus nutraceutical products. The Company’s annual production capability of edible cacti in 2009 was 19,184 tons.
The Company engages with, by co-operative production agreements, local pharmaceutical, food and beverage manufacturers to produce its consumer products. This strategy allows the Company to fill the orders quickly with short production runs and to reduce the requirements in fixed assets investment. The Company currently has entered into co-production agreements with five processors in China. They are Harbin Bin County Hualan Dairy Factory, Harbin Ice Lantern Noodle Factory, Tsingtao Brewery (Harbin) Inc., Harbin Diwang Pharmacy Co., Ltd. (a GMP or Good Manufacturing Practice certified processor), and Mudanjiang Kangwei Health Food Company, Ltd. GMP or Good Manufacturing Practice certifications are awarded by the State Food and Drug Administration of China to processors that meet the safety and quality assurance standards set by the State Food and Drug Administration of China.
Pursuant to these contracts, the Company provides raw materials, quality control guidelines and technical support while the processors provide other materials, processing facilities and labor to manufacture products for the Company. These processors are required to adhere strictly to the Company’s production guidelines and instructions. The Company inspects all final products. The Company's agreements with all of its five processors expire in 2012. The Company currently has long term agreements with all five processors which automatically renew at expiration in 2012 for one year terms unless terminated by either party 30 days prior to the expiration of the agreements.
26
The Company has also established its own cactus beverage and fruit wine production facilities. The Company’s cactus beverage product category includes cactus beer, cactus fruit wine (including the brand name of Overlord Scourge Flower Imperial Wine), cactus palm juices and cactus fruit drinks.
In addition, the Company has its own research and development facility, the Heilongjiang Sino-Mexico Cactus Development and Utilization Institute, which is licensed by Heilongjiang Science & Technology Committee. The Institute has utilized patented technology to independently develop cactus-based nutraceuticals and nutritional food and drink product formulas and production processes. The Institute has 18 patents approved and 12 patent applications currently pending.
Company History
Our Company was initially incorporated as InvestNet, Inc. (“InvestNet”) on March 16, 2000 under the laws of the State of Nevada. Prior to June 3, 2005, the Company’s operations consisted of real time software and IT solutions which the Company held through its subsidiaries, Champion Agents Limited (which wholly owned DSI Computer Technology Company Limited) and Interchance Limited. Due to the fact that the Company was unable to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, obtain funding to sustain operations nor reduce or stabilize expenses to the point where it could have realized a net positive cash flow, management and the board of directors determined that it was in the best interests of the stockholders to seek a strategic alternative so that the Company could continue to operate. On May 13, 2005, InvestNet entered into a series of agreements to effect a ���reverse merger transaction” via a share exchange and through the conversion of a convertible promissory note, as described below, with China Kangtai Cactus Bio-tech Company Limited (“BVI China Kangtai”), a British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) incorporated on November 26, 2004.
These documents included a Stock Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which InvestNet issued 30,000,000 shares to a stockholder of BVI China Kangtai for $300,000. Additionally, InvestNet entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, pursuant to which the stockholders of BVI China Kangtai exchanged 12% of BVI China Kangtai’s outstanding shares for 110,130,615 shares of InvestNet. Additionally, InvestNet issued a Convertible Promissory Note to BVI China Kangtai or its designees in the amount of $8,070,000 plus accrued interest at a rate of 5% per annum or convertible at the option of the holder(s) in the event that InvestNet effected a one for seventy reverse split of InvestNet’s common stock into the remaining 88% of the outstanding shares of BVI China Kangtai (the “Convertible Note”). The Company did effect a one for seventy reverse split of all of its outstanding shares of Common Stock and changed its name (to “China Kangtai Cactus Bio-Tech Inc.”) and trading symbol on the OTC Bulletin Board (to “CKGT”) on August 25, 2005. The holders of the Convertible Note converted the Convertible Note a day later on August 26, 2005 into 14,248,395 shares of Common Stock of the Company. As the result of the share exchange and conversion of the Convertible Note, the Company completed a “reverse merger transaction” whereby InvestNet acquired 100% of BVI China Kangtai, which wholly owns Harbin Hainan Kangda Cacti Hygienical Foods Co., Ltd. (“Harbin Hainan Kangda”).
Harbin Hainan Kangda is presently our main operating subsidiary. Harbin Hainan Kangda is in the business of selling and producing cactus and cactus related products in the PRC as more fully described below. In connection with the “reverse merger transaction”, we completely sold all the Company’s real time software and IT solutions operations by selling all of the stock held by the Company in its prior wholly owned subsidiaries, Champion Agents Limited (which wholly owned DSI Computer Technology Company Limited) and Interchance Limited to V-Capital Limited, a Republic of Mauritius corporation which is controlled by a former director of InvestNet.
On June 3, 2005, in connection with the reorganization of the Company and the acquisition of BVI China Kangtai and its wholly owned subsidiary, Harbin Hainan Kangda, the Company’s executive officers and directors significantly changed. Specifically, Norman Koo resigned as a director, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company; Terence Ho resigned as a director, Chief Financial Officer, and Treasurer of the Company; Vivian Szeto resigned as a director (However, Ms. Szeto’s resignation from the Board of Directors was contingent on the Company completing its filing and mailing requirements of its Schedule 14f-1 which occurred on July 22, 2005 and so, from June 3, 2005 to July 22, 2005 she served as the Company’s sole director) and Secretary of the Company; Johnny Lu resigned as a director of the Company; and Mantin Lu resigned as a director of the Company.
In contemplation of the aforementioned resignations, also on June 3, 2005, the Board of Directors appointed in accordance with Section 3.04 of the Company’s Bylaws, Jinjiang Wang, Chengzhi Wang, Hong Bu, Jiping Wang and Song Yang as members of the Company’s Board of Directors, subject to the fulfillment of the filing and mailing requirements, including the 10 day waiting period of its Schedule 14f-1 that was sent to all stockholders of the Company pursuant to section 14(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which occurred on July 22, 2005 and appointed the following officers to serve immediately: Jinjiang Wang, President; Chengzhi Wang, General Manager; Hong Bu, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer; Fengxi Lang, Secretary; Changfu Wang, Vice General Manager; Zhimin Zhan, Vice General Manager; and Lixian Zhou, Assistant General Manager of the Company.
27
On July 20, 2005, InvestNet’s sole director, Vivian Szeto, and a majority of the Company’s stockholders unanimously approved and ratified a one for seventy reverse split (the “Reverse Split”) of the Company’s common stock and the amendment and restatement of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to effect a name change of the Company from “Investnet, Inc.” to “China Kangtai Cactus Bio-Tech Inc.”. The Reverse Split became effective on August 25, 2005; 20 days after the Company sent an Information Statement to all of its stockholders and after the filing of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada. As a result of the Reverse Split, the number of issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, now named China Kangtai Cactus Bio-Tech Inc., was reduced from a total of 200,000,000 shares outstanding to 2,857,143 shares outstanding. A day after the Reverse Split on August 26, 2005, the Convertible Note was converted by its holders(s) into 14,248,395 shares of the Company, which increased the total outstanding shares of the Company to 17,105,625 shares. The Company’s trading symbol was changed by the OTC Bulletin Board Stock Market (“OTCBB”) to “CKGT” to better reflect the Company’s new name. The Company has also changed its Web site to www.xrz.cn.
On June 26, 2006, the Company acquired a 100% equity interest in Guangdong Taishan Kangda Cactus Hygienical Food Co., Ltd. (“Taishan Kangda”), a company with limited liability formed under the laws of the People’s Republic of China for $1,574,000 in cash. Taishan Kangda’s assets include large areas of cactus plantation and production facilities in Guangdong Province in southeast China. The acquisition allows the Company to establish production facilities closer to its existing cactus plantations in Guangdong Province in order to reduce transportation cost and to distribute its products more effectively in southeast China.
The Company has three wholly-owned owned subsidiaries: China Kangtai Cactus Bio-Tech Company Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (Kangtai BVI”) ; Harbin Hainan Kangda Cacti Hygienical Foods Co., Ltd., a PRC company (“Harbin Hainan Kangda”); and Taishan Kangda, a PRC company.
Kangtai BVI is a holding company and does not have any operations. Taishan Kangda is engaged in the cultivation and harvest of cactus plants and the production of our cactus raw materials. Harbin Hainan Kangda is engaged in the development, production, sales and marketing of our products derived from the raw materials produced by Taishan Kangda.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included in this Form 10-Q filed with SEC.

On February 14, 2011, Harbin Hainan Kangda entered into a Cooperation Processing Agreement with Shandong Qingdao Cigarette Factory (“Shandong Qingdao”). Under the agreement, Harbin has granted Shandong Qingdao the right to use Harbin’s cigarette trademarks and patents and provides Shandong Qingdao with dry cactus, fine cut tobacco, and certain other raw materials to assist Shandong Qingdao’s production of cigarette products for sale.

Cost of Sales
Cost of sales totaled $6,257,536 in the three months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $832,701, or 15%, compared to $5,424,835 in 2010. The increase in cost of sales resulted from the increase in sales. The gross profit rate was 34% for the three months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of 4 percentage points as compared to 38% in the comparable period of 2010. The decrease of gross margin resulted from the change of the Company’s products mix. Cactus feed and raw and intermediate materials have a lower gross margin rate than the Company’s other products.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 totaled $654,321, a decrease of $357,647, or (35%), compared to $1,011,968 in the comparable period of 2010. The decrease in operating expenses was mainly due to the decrease in consulting and legal fees. In April 2010, the Company granted 250,000 options to its attorney and expensed an estimated fair market value of $390,275. In April 2010, the Company issued 50,000 shares of its common stock to an individual for consulting services rendered and expensed $125,000 estimated fair value of the shares. The decrease in legal and consulting expenses was offset by the increase of $193,668 in amortization of intangible assets, which resulted from our acquisition of patents and trademarks in 2010.
Other Income and Expenses
Other expenses (net) for the three months ended June 30, 2011 totaled $63,218, compared to other income (net) of $1,421,662 in 2010. The decrease in other income mainly resulted from the reduction in income from revaluation of Series A Preferred Stock and A, B, C, and D warrants with characteristics of liabilities at fair values. Such income totaled $99,780 in 2011, compared to income of $1,435,280 from the revaluation in the comparable period of 2010.

The increase in our income from operations resulted mainly from net income earned during the three months ended June 30, 2011 from the Shandong Qingdao Cooperative Processing Agreement of $1,257,490 and of $357,647 lower operating expenses in the current three months period compared to 2010.
Net Income
Net income totaled $2,829,424 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $171,921, or 6%, compared to $3,001,345 in 2010. The decrease in net income was caused mainly by the reduced income from revaluation of Series A Preferred Stock and A, B, C, and D warrants with characteristics of liabilities at fair values of $1,335,500 offset by net income earned during the three months ended June 30, 2011 from the Shandong Qingdao Cooperative Processing Agreement of $1,257,490 and of $357,647 lower operating expenses in the current three month period compared to 2010. In addition, the three months ended June 30, 2011 included a loss on disposal of property and equipment of $150,542.
Absent the revaluation income of $99,780 in 2011, the Company would have had a net income of $2,729,644 and basic and diluted earnings per common share would have been $0.12 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Absent the revaluation income of $1,435,280 in 2010, the Company would have had a net income of $1,566,065, and basic and diluted earnings per common share would have been $0.07 for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

Estimated Liability for Equity-Based Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Liabilities
Effective January 1, 2009, in accordance with EITF Issue No. 07-05, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock”, the Company reclassified the fair values at January 1, 2009 of the outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and the warrants comprising the March 21, 2008 and the July 16, 2008 sales of units (see Note 12) from stockholders’ equity to liabilities, as follows:
| | Shares / | | | | |
| | Warrants | | | Fair Value | |
| | | | | | |
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock | | 1,150,000 | | $ | 333,500 | |
| | | | | | |
A warrants | | 1,250,000 | | | 122,000 | |
B warrants | | 1,500,000 | | | 120,150 | |
C warrants | | 500,000 | | | 47,950 | |
D warrants | | 600,000 | | | 47,640 | |

| | | | | | |
Total Financial Instruments | | 5,000,000 | | $ | 671,240 | |
Since at January 1, 2009 the carrying value of the outstanding financial instruments was $690,000, the Company recognized a cumulative effect adjustment resulting from a change in accounting principle of $18,760, or a net of $671,240. Accordingly, the unappropriated retained earnings balance at December 31, 2008 was increased from $11,604,285 to $11,623,045, as adjusted, on January 1, 2009.
The characteristics which require classification of the Series A Preferred Stock and warrants as liabilities are the Company’s obligations to reduce the conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock and the exercise price of the warrants in the event that the Company sells, grants, or issues any shares, options, warrants, or any convertible instrument at a price below the $0.60 current conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock or the current exercise prices of the warrants. As a result, the Company remeasures the fair values of these financial instruments each quarter, adjusts the liability balances, and reflects changes in operations as “income (expense) from revaluation of Series A Preferred Stock and A, B, C, and D warrants with characteristics of liabilities at fair values”.
At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair values of the financial instruments consisted of:
| | 2011 | | | 2010 | |
| | Shares / Warrants | | | Fair Value | | | Shares / Warrants | | | Fair Value | |
| | (Unaudited) | | | | | | | |

The Company has until November 9, 2011 to submit the notice to Kodiak. Whether the Company will submit the notice is dependent upon its management’s evaluation of the put price relative to its current stock trading price, and the Company’s needs for working capital.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
In Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 included in our annual report filed with SEC, the Company discusses those accounting policies that are considered to be significant in determining the results of operations and its financial position. The Company believes that the accounting principles utilized by it conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company applies the following critical accounting policies in the preparation of its financial statements.
General
The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which require management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenue and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Senior management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure of these estimates with the Board of Directors. Management believes that the accounting estimates employed and the resulting balances are reasonable; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Revenue Recognition
Sales of products are recognized when title to the product and risk of loss transfer to the customer (which depends on the customer) provided that: there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance; persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; the sales price is fixed or determinable; and collectability is deemed probable. Sales terms provide for passage of title either at the time shipment is made or at the time of the delivery of product and generally do not include any customer right of return. Shipping and handling costs are included as a component of cost of sales.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In connection with the determination of estimated liability for equity-based financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities, the Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: expected volatility of 100%, and risk-free interest rate of 2%.
Foreign Currency Translation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company are translated pursuant to Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 830, “Foreign Currency Matters.” The Company’s subsidiaries, Harbin Hainan Kangda and Guangdong Taishan Kangda, are located and operate in China. The Chinese Yuan is their functional currency. The financial statements of these subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities, and average exchange rates for revenues, costs and expenses. Translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains or losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the consolidated results of operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have never entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements and have never established any special purpose entities. We have not guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities or entered into any options on non-financial assets.
