The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
These statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K has been condensed or omitted.
The accompanying financial statements for the interim periods are unaudited and reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and operating results for the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008 and notes thereto contained on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008 of the Company as filed with the SEC. The results of operations for the three month period ended September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results for our full fiscal year ending June 30, 2009.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year to conform to the current year presentation.
Restatement of financial statements
The financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, including the subsequent three month period ended September 30, 2007 have been restated to correct the accounting treatment previously accorded certain transactions.
DRAGON INTERNATIONAL GROUP CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2008
| · | For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, we erroneously did not value the reduction in exercise price of existing warrants associated with an induced conversion offer. The value of the reduction in exercise price has been calculated at $447,238, and was reflected in the statement of operations as an increase in interest expense, and a resultant increase in net loss and net loss per share for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. The Company had recorded the valuation of the reduction in exercise price as an increase in additional paid-in capital. |
| | |
| · | For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, we erroneously deferred, over a three year period commencing in January 2006, $540,000 in consulting expense related to the issuance of 6,000,000 shares of our common stock and $395,675 related to the issuance of 4,700,000 common stock purchase warrants exercisable at $0.15 per share over a five year period. In addition, in February 2006, we issued warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock, exercisable for five years at $.15 per share, as compensation pursuant to a one year financial advisory consulting agreement. The Company had incorrectly deferred the fair value of these warrants of $71,243 over the contract term. The Company has restated the related financial statements to recognize the full expense of these agreements immediately upon entering into the consulting agreements in January 2006 and February 2006, under the provisions of EITF 96-18 and SFAS 123R. These corrections resulted in an increase in consulting expense for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 and a reduction in consulting expense for subsequent periods, including a reduction in consulting expenses of $86,878 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007, as detailed in the tables below. |
| | |
| · | In March 2007, pursuant to a consulting agreement, we issued 4,000,000 shares of our common stock. Initially, we had recorded and reported this issuance incorrectly as a cost of raising capital related to the private placement of $1,500,000 in units sold during the quarter. We restated the financial statements to recognize the full expense of this agreement immediately upon entering into the consulting agreement in March 2007 under the provisions of EITF 96-18 and SFAS 123R. This correction resulted in an increase in our accumulated deficit for the three month period ended September 30, 2007 of $360,000. |

BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
RECLASSIFICATION
Certain reclassifications of amounts previously reported have been made to the accompanying consolidated financial statements in order to maintain consistency and comparability between the periods presented.
Some payables previously classified as Accounts Payable are now classified as Due to Related Party.
ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Inventories, consisting of raw materials, work in process and finished goods related to the Company's products are stated at the lower of cost or market utilizing the weighted average method.
ADVANCES ON PURCHASES
Advances on purchases amounted to $5,360,372 and $5,034,567 at September 30, 2008 and June 30, 2008, respectively. This amount consists of prepayments by the Company for merchandise orders that had not yet been shipped to the Company.
INTANGIBLE ASSETS / INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
The Company recognizes the value and amortizes intangible assets and intellectual property acquired in connection with their various acquisitions. The Company amortizes these assets based on the expected useful lives of these assets, based on Company management projecting forward future revenue and expense streams related to these acquired assets. For the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, amortization expenses for intangible assets amounted to $16,088 and $29,171, respectively.
LONG - LIVED ASSETS
In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, the Company evaluates its long-lived assets for possible impairment when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets under certain circumstances are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value. Assets to be disposed of and assets not expected to provide any future service potential to the Company are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less related costs to sell. To the extent carrying values exceed fair values; an impairment loss is recognized in operating results.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (��FASB”) issued FASB Statement No. 123R, "Share-Based Payment, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123" ("FAS No. 123R"). FAS No. 123R requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant- date fair value of stock options and other equity based compensation issued to employees. The Company adopted FAS No.123R in the first quarter of fiscal year 2006.
NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period.
The following table represents a reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company follows the guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 for revenue recognition. In general, the Company records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured.
SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS
The Company accounts for shipping and handling costs as a component of selling expenses.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
Transactions and balances originally denominated in U.S. dollars are presented at their original amounts. Transactions and balances in other currencies are converted into U.S. dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation," and are included in determining net income or loss.
For foreign operations with the local currency as the functional currency, assets and liabilities are translated from the local currencies into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at weighted average exchange rates for the period to approximate translation at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates those elements are recognized in the financial statements. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive loss. At September 30, 2008 and 2007, the exchange rates for the Chinese dollar or Renminbi ("RMB") for 1 United States dollar were 6.855 and 7.518, respectively.
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions in the United States and China. At September 30, 2008, the Company, held a total of $672,865 in bank deposits. Of this amount $664,326 is held in China, and $8,539 is held in the U.S. Of the amount held in China, $240,697 is restricted and is presented as restricted cash on the accompanying balance sheet. This amount is being held as collateral for certain loans, totaling $481,394, held with Chinese banks. The remaining unrestricted cash balance of $423,629 held in bank deposits in China is not insured. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through September 30, 2008. The Company also performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to help further reduce credit risk.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for cash, accounts receivable, deferred expenses, advance on purchases, other receivables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, due to related parties, advance from customers, and loans approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

The value of the land use rights remained constant in the local currency of RMB, the change in the valuation as it relates to U.S. dollars is associated with the currency fluctuation.

NOTE 8 - OPERATING RISK
(a) Country risk
The Company's revenues are mainly derived from the sale of pulp, paper and packaging products in the Peoples Republic of China (PRC). The Company hopes to expand its operations to countries outside the PRC, however, such expansion has not been commenced and there are no assurances that the Company will be able to achieve such an expansion successfully. Therefore, a downturn or stagnation in the economic environment of the PRC could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition.
(b) Products risk
In addition to competing with other PRC based companies, the Company could have to compete with larger U.S. or foreign companies who have greater funds available for expansion, marketing, research and development and the ability to attract more qualified personnel, if access is allowed into the PRC market. If U.S. or foreign companies do gain access to the PRC markets, they may be able to offer products at a lower price. There can be no assurance that the Company will remain competitive should this occur.
(c) Exchange rate risk
The Company cannot guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain steady, therefore there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of profit for two comparable periods and because of a fluctuating exchange rate actually post higher or lower operating profit depending on exchange rate of Chinese Renminbi converted to U.S. dollars for the period covered by the report. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in the political and economic environments without notice.
(d) Political risk
Currently, the PRC is openly promoting business development in order to bring more business into the PRC. Additionally, the PRC allows a Chinese corporation to be owned by a United States corporation. If the laws or regulations are changed by the PRC government, the Company's ability to operate the PRC subsidiaries could be adversely affected.
(e) Key personnel risk
The Company's future success depends on the continued services of executive management in China. The loss of any of their services would be detrimental to the Company and could have an adverse effect on business development. The Company does not currently maintain key-man insurance on their lives. Future success is also dependent on the ability to identify, hire, train and retain other qualified managerial and other employees. Competition for these individuals is intense and increasing.
(f) Performance of subsidiaries risk
All of the Company's revenues are derived and are expected to continue to be derived through the operations of the Company's subsidiaries, most notably Wellton International Fiber Corp., which accounted for approximately 86% of our consolidated revenues for the three month period ended September 30, 2008. Economic, governmental, political, industry and internal company factors outside of the Company's control affect each of the subsidiaries. If the subsidiaries do not succeed, the value of the assets and the price of our common stock could decline.
NOTE 9 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-including an amendment of FAS 115 ”. SFAS 159 allows entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible financial assets and liabilities at fair value that are not otherwise required to be measured at fair value. If a company elects the fair value option for an eligible item, changes in that item’s fair value in subsequent reporting periods must be recognized in current earnings. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We have determined that SFAS 159 has not had a significant impact as of September 30, 2008, and we will continue to evaluate the impact, if any, of SFAS 159 on our financial statements.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2008
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations”. SFAS 141R is a revision to SFAS 141 and includes substantial changes to the acquisition method used to account for business combinations (formerly the “purchase accounting” method), including broadening the definition of a business, as well as revisions to accounting methods for contingent consideration and other contingencies related to the acquired business, accounting for transaction costs, and accounting for adjustments to provisional amounts recorded in connection with acquisitions. SFAS 141R retains the fundamental requirement of SFAS 141 that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. SFAS 141R is effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and will apply to all business combinations occurring after the effective date. We are currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS 141R and the impact of adoption on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements” (“ARB 51”). This Statement amends ARB 51 to establish new standards that will govern the (1) accounting for and reporting of non-controlling interests in partially owned consolidated subsidiaries and (2) the loss of control of subsidiaries. A non-controlling interest will be reported as part of equity in the consolidated financial statements. Losses will be allocated to the non-controlling interest, and, if control is maintained, changes in ownership interests will be treated as equity transactions. Upon a loss of control, any gain or loss on the interest sold will be recognized in earnings. SFAS 160 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2008. We are currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS 160 and the impact of adoption on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. We are currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS 161 and the impact of adoption on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position (“FSP”) APB 14-1, Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement. FSP APB 14-1 clarifies that convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon either mandatory or optional conversion (including partial cash settlement) are not addressed by paragraph 12 of APB Opinion No. 14, Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt issued with Stock Purchase Warrants. Additionally, FSP APB 14-1 specifies that issuers of such instruments should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. FSP APB 14-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We will adopt FSP APB 14-1 beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, and this standard must be applied on a retrospective basis. We are evaluating the impact the adoption of FSP APB 14-1 will have on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This standard is intended to improve financial reporting by identifying a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for non-governmental entities. SFAS No. 162 is effective 60 days following approval by the U.S. SEC of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. We do not expect SFAS No. 162 to have a material impact on the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
On September 16, 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities,” to address the question of whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting. The FSP determines that unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to dividend payments should be included in earnings per share calculations. The guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We are currently evaluating the requirements of (FSP) No. EITF 03-6-1, as well as the impact of the adoption on our consolidated financial statements.
On October 10, 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active. This FASB Staff Position (FSP) clarifies the application of FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active. Statement 157 was issued in September 2006, and is effective for financial assets and financial liabilities for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We have adopted FSP 157-3 and determined that it had no impact as of September 30, 2008, and we will continue to evaluate the impact, if any, of SFAS 157-3 on our financial statements.

NOTE 11 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On October 13, 2008 we issued 10,000,000 shares of common stock assigned to H.K. Mingtai Investment Co., Ltd. upon the request of Haobo Zhu and Shaobo Ouyang, former shareholders of Shanghai JinKui. The shares were issued as partial payment of our acquisition of Shanghai Jin Kui. Pursuant to section 1.2 of a stock purchase agreement entered into by and among Dragon Nevada and Shanghai Jin Kui dated June 10, 2006, filed as an exhibit to our 10-KSB/A for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, we agreed to a contingent payment of additional shares related to the purchase, based on Shanghai JinKui achieving specified net income targets subsequent to the purchase. The fulfillment of the contingent conditions has been in dispute since December 31, 2006; specifically, the parties have disagreed regarding the definition of net income. On October 13, 2008 the parties reached an agreement to issue 10,000,000 shares of common stock with a fair value of $300,000 . In accordance with SFAS 141, “Business Combinations” we accounted for the additional shares as part of the purchase price of Shanghai JinKui when the contingency was resolved and additional consideration was distributable. We valued the additional consideration at fair value based on the market price of $0.03 per share on the date of issuance.
On October 15, 2008 we issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock to Capital One Resource Co., Ltd.; 3,000,000 shares were for payment of consulting services rendered during our fiscal year ended June 30, 2008 and 2,000,000 shares were for payment of consulting services rendered and to be rendered during our fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.

FOREIGN EXCHANGE CONSIDERATIONS
Since the local currency for 100% of our net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”), how we report net revenues from our RMB-based operations is of particular importance to understanding our financial statements. Transactions and balances originally denominated in U.S. dollars are presented at their original amounts. Transactions and balances in other currencies are converted into U.S. dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation", and are included in determining net income or loss. For foreign operations with the local currency as the functional currency, assets and liabilities are translated from the local currencies into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective balance sheet date.
Revenues and expenses are translated at weighted average exchange rates for the period to approximate translation at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates those elements are recognized in the financial statements. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining comprehensive loss.
The functional currency of our Chinese subsidiaries is the local currency, the Renminbi or the Chinese dollar, ("RMB"). The financial statements of our subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars using period and rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues, costs, and expenses. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included in the consolidated statements of operations and were not material during the periods presented. Since 1994, the value of the Renminbi relative to the U.S. dollar has remained relatively stable; appreciating slightly against the U.S. dollar. On July 21, 2005, the PRC announced that the Renminbi would be pegged to a basket of currencies rather than tied to a fixed exchange rate to the U.S. dollar.
If any devaluation of the Renminbi were to occur in the future, returns on our operations in China, which are expected to be in the form of Renminbi, will be negatively impacted upon conversion to U.S. dollars. Although we attempt to have most future payments, mainly repayments of loans and capital contributions denominated in U.S. dollars, if any decrease in the value of the Renminbi were to occur in the future, our product sales in China and in other countries may be negatively affected.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in 2008 and 2007 include inventory valuation, the allowance for doubtful accounts, the valuation of equity instruments, the useful life of property, plant and equipment and value of land use rights.
Inventories, consisting of raw materials and finished goods related to our products are stated at the lower of cost or market utilizing the weighted average method.
Our financial instruments at September 30, 2008 contain accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term debt. The fair values of financial instruments approximate their recorded values.
We review the carrying value of property and equipment and land-use rights for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to the undiscounted cash flows that the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the property, if any, exceeds its fair market value.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities-including an amendment of FAS 115 ”. SFAS 159 allows entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible financial assets and liabilities at fair value that are not otherwise required to be measured at fair value. If a company elects the fair value option for an eligible item, changes in that item’s fair value in subsequent reporting periods must be recognized in current earnings. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We have adopted SFAS 159 and determined that it had no impact as of September 30, 2008, and we will continue to evaluate the impact, if any, of SFAS 159 on our financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations”. SFAS 141R is a revision to SFAS 141 and includes substantial changes to the acquisition method used to account for business combinations (formerly the “purchase accounting” method), including broadening the definition of a business, as well as revisions to accounting methods for contingent consideration and other contingencies related to the acquired business, accounting for transaction costs, and accounting for adjustments to provisional amounts recorded in connection with acquisitions. SFAS 141R retains the fundamental requirement of SFAS 141 that the acquisition method of accounting be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. SFAS 141R is effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and will apply to all business combinations occurring after the effective date. We are currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS 141R and the impact of adoption on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements ” (“ARB 51”). This Statement amends ARB 51 to establish new standards that will govern the (1) accounting for and reporting of non-controlling interests in partially owned consolidated subsidiaries and (2) the loss of control of subsidiaries. A non-controlling interest will be reported as part of equity in the consolidated financial statements. Losses will be allocated to the non-controlling interest, and, if control is maintained, changes in ownership interests will be treated as equity transactions. Upon a loss of control, any gain or loss on the interest sold will be recognized in earnings. SFAS 160 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2008. We are currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS 160 and the impact of adoption on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. We are currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS 161 and the impact of adoption on our consolidated financial statements.
In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) APB 14-1, Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement . FSP APB 14-1 clarifies that convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon either mandatory or optional conversion (including partial cash settlement) are not addressed by paragraph 12 of APB Opinion No. 14, Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt issued with Stock Purchase Warrants . Additionally, FSP APB 14-1 specifies that issuers of such instruments should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. FSP APB 14-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We will adopt FSP APB 14-1 beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, and this standard must be applied on a retrospective basis. We are evaluating the impact the adoption of FSP APB 14-1 will have on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In May 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This standard is intended to improve financial reporting by identifying a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for non-governmental entities. SFAS No. 162 is effective 60 days following approval by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. We do not expect SFAS No. 162 to have a material impact on the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
On September 16, 2008, the FASB issued final Staff Position (FSP) No. EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities,” to address the question of whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting. The FSP determines that unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to dividend payments should be included in earnings per share calculations. The guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We are currently evaluating the requirements of (FSP) No. EITF 03-6-1, as well as the impact of the adoption on our consolidated financial statements.
On October 10, 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active. This FASB Staff Position (FSP) clarifies the application of FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, in a market that is not active and provides an example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active. Statement 157 was issued in September 2006, and is effective for financial assets and financial liabilities for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We have adopted SFAS 157-3 and determined that it had no impact as of September 30, 2008, and we will continue to evaluate the impact, if any, of SFAS 157-3 on our financial statements.
During the three month period ended September 30, 2008, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies that impacted our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
We follow the guidance of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 for revenue recognition. In general, we record revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured.
RECENT EVENTS
In November 2008, the Chinese government announced a two year domestic economic stimulus program valued at $586 billion. The stimulus packages which included previously announced tax rebates is aimed at bolstering domestic economic activity. The program includes spending in housing, infrastructure, agriculture, health care and social welfare. Furthermore the program includes tax rebates and a tax deduction for capital. We expect to see a benefit to the Chinese economy from this stimulus program. However in the short-term, it remains to be seen the impact this will have on our revenues through the remainder of fiscal 2009 and beyond.

NET REVENUES
Our consolidated revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2008 were up $1,885,488, or approximately 24%, increasing from $7,929,498 for the three month period ending September 30, 2007 to $9,814,986 for the three month period ending September 30, 2008. This increase was due to organic growth in both our packaging and pulp & paper segments.
Pulp and Paper Segment
Wellton leads our pulp and paper segment; this segment contributed $8,440,438 in revenue this quarter, or approximately 86% of total revenue. Segment revenues increased $1,397,442 or 20%, from $7,042,996 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007 to $8,440,438 for the same period in the current fiscal year. We expect to continue to see positive revenue growth from this segment..
Packaging Segment
Shanghai Jin Kui and Ningbo Dragon and its subsidiaries make up our packaging segment; this segment contributed $1,374,548, or approximately 14% of total revenue. Segment revenues increased $488,046 or 55%, from $886,502 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007 to $1,374,548 for the same period in the current fiscal year.
We are beginning to see the growth results of our strategic shift in our packaging segment from a focus on cigarette and food packaging toward pharmaceutical packaging. While this shift is continuing to develop and mature, the 55% revenue growth compared to the same quarter in the prior year is evidence that this strategy is working. We expect to see continued improvement in our packaging segment as we continue to dedicate resources to this market.
COST OF SALES AND GROSS PROFIT
Our consolidated cost of sales increased $1,736,184, or 24%, from $7,331,333 during the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $9,067,517 during the three months ended September 30, 2008. Cost of sales as a percentage of net revenues remained relatively stable between periods, totaling 92.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 92.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2007. As such, this increase in cost of sales follows in-line with our increase in sales period over period.
Consolidated gross profit increased $149,304, or 25%, from $598,165 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $747,469 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Gross profit as a percentage of sales remained stable between periods; 7.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 7.5% for the three months ended September 30, 2007.
Pulp and Paper Segment
Gross Profit increased $86,960 or 21%, from $416,941 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $503,901 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Gross profit as a percentage of sales remained stable at 6.0% in the current quarter and 5.9% in the same quarter in the prior year.
Packaging Segment
Gross profit increased $62,344, or 34%, from $181,244 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $243,568 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased from 20.4% during the first quarter of the prior year to 17.7% during the current quarter; this decrease is largely due to higher energy costs. This segment continues to focus on higher margin pharmaceutical products, even with this fluctuation this segment’s gross margin is significantly higher than our Pulp and Paper segment.
TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES
Total operating expenses increased $343,264, or 80%, from $426,647 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $769,911 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Operating expense as a percentage of revenue increased from 5.4% during the first quarter in the prior year to 7.8% during the current quarter.
Selling expenses increased $189,267, or 98%, from $192,308 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $381,575 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Selling expenses as a percentage of revenue increased from 2.4% during the first quarter in the prior year to 3.9% in the current quarter. This increase is primarily due to an increase in commissions paid for Wellton agents.
General and administrative expenses increased $153,997 or 66% from $234,339 during the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $388,336 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2008. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue increased from 3.0% during the first quarter in the prior year to 4.0% in the current quarter. This increase is due primarily to stock based consulting expenses.
TOTAL OTHER EXPENSE
Total other expense increased $98,037 from $22,097 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $120,134 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. This increase is primarily due to an increase in interest expense of $98,580; interest expense increased the current quarter as compared to the first quarter in the prior year as we have financed a larger portion of our operations with short-term notes. Our notes payable balance has increased and the weighted average interest rate of these notes have also increased over the same period in the prior year.
NET LOSS
Net loss increased sharply from a net loss of $17,347 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to a net loss of $148,888 for the three month period ended September 30, 2008 due to the combination of factors highlighted above.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. At September 30, 2008 our working capital was approximately $4.7 million as compared to approximately $5.1 million at June 30, 2008.
As of September 30, 2008, we had $432,168 in unrestricted cash and an accumulated deficit since inception of $1,949,731. Our restricted cash balance at September 30, 2008, totaled $240,697, and is pledged to the repayment of bank acceptance notes, totaling $481,394 held by the Bank of Communications in the PRC.
Cash provided from operating activities totaled $276,670 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 compared to cash used in operating activities for the same period of the preceding year of $595,251. This overall increase in cash provided by operating activities of $871,921 was primarily attributable to efficient cash management relating to collection of accounts receivable and payments on accounts payable. The largest sources of cash include funding from the following: $3,124,808 from collection of accounts receivable and $82,055 from the increase of accrued liabilities. These sources of cash were offset primarily by the following uses of cash: $2,193,506 to pay down accounts payable, and $325,805 increase in advance on purchases.
We used $109,808 of cash for investing activities during the period, we used $73,863 for capital expenditures and $35,945 as an increase in notes receivable. We also obtained $38,347 in cash provided by financing activities.
We have historically supplemented our operational cash flow, as needed, through PRC based bank borrowings. These borrowings have been primarily with the Agricultural Bank of China and the Bank of Communications. The level of these borrowings remained relatively stable totaling $5,511,266 as of September 30, 2008, increasing slightly from $5,498,220 at June 30, 2008. We believe our relationship with these banks remains good and we will be able to replace or renew these loans as they become due. We are current with our payment obligations relating to these loans. Our inability to renew these obligations as they become due or find alternate sources of funding will adversely affect our operations.
OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
As of the date of this report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition material to our shareholders. In the ordinary course of business, we enter into operating lease commitments, purchase commitments and other contractual obligations. These transactions are recognized in our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Securities and Exchange Commission encourages companies to disclose forward-looking information so that investors can better understand a company's future prospects and make informed investment decisions. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other written and oral statements that we make from time to time contain such forward-looking statements that set out anticipated results based on management's plans and assumptions regarding future events or performance. We have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements by using words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project," "intend," "plan," "believe," "will" and similar expressions in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, future performance or results of current and anticipated sales efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings, and financial results. A list of factors that could cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to differ materially is set forth below, and these factors are discussed in greater detail under Item 1. Description of Business--Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008:
The loss of the services of any of our executive officers or the loss of services of any of our key persons responsible for the management, sales, marketing and operations efforts of our subsidiaries; our ability to successfully transition the internal operations of companies which we acquired in the PRC from their prior status as privately held Chinese companies to their current status as subsidiaries of a publicly-held U.S. company; our acquisition efforts in the future may result in significant dilution to existing holders of our securities; difficulties in raising capital in the future as a result of the terms of our January 2007 financing; our ability to effectively integrate our acquisitions and manage our growth; the lack of various legal protections customary in certain agreements to which we are party and which are material to our operations which are customarily contained in similar contracts prepared in the United States; our dependence upon advisory services provided by a U.S. company due to our management’s location in the Peoples Republic of China (“PRC”); intense competition in the packaging products and paperboard industries; the impact of economic downturn in the PRC on our revenues from our operations in the PRC; the impact of changes in the political and economic policies and reforms of the Chinese government; fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollars and Chinese Renminbi; the limitation on our ability to receive and use our revenue effectively as a result of restrictions on currency exchange in China; the impact of changes to the tax structure in the PRC; our inability to enforce our legal rights in China due to policies regarding the regulation of foreign investments; and the existence of extended payment terms which are customary in China; uncertainties related to PRC regulations relating to acquisitions of PRC companies by foreign entities that could restrict or limit our ability to operate, and could negatively affect our acquisition strategy; our board of directors’ effectiveness in fulfilling the functions of the audit committee may have been hindered by our lack of independent directors; we are dependent upon a few suppliers of raw materials and products we distribute, if our suppliers do not provide us with adequate supplies of certain materials used in our products, we may not be able to deliver sufficient quantities of our products to satisfy demand; we may not have sufficient protection of certain of our intellectual property; demand for our products is substantially dependent upon the demand for the industry to which we supply products; our operations are subject to government regulation; our products must continue to meet the needs of the industries we service; our business is substantially dependent upon the paper industry in general and the operations of Wellton; changes in the cost or availability of raw material and energy; changes in transportation availability or costs; material disruptions of manufacturing; we may be exposed to potential risks relating to our internal controls over financial reporting and our ability to have those controls attested to by our independent auditors, we have already had to restate our financial statements from September 30, 2005 through September 30, 2007 as a result of weakness and deficiencies in such controls; because our stock currently trades below $5.00 per share, and is quoted on the OTCBB, our stock is considered a "penny stock" which can adversely affect its liquidity; we do not have significant financial reporting experience, which may lead to delays in filing required reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission and suspension of quotation of our securities on the OTCBB, which will make it more difficult for you to sell your securities. We caution that the factors described herein and other factors could cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements we make and that investors should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of such factors. Further, we cannot assess the impact of each such factor on our results of operations or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended as of September 30, 2008, the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, our management concluded its evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Disclosure controls and procedures and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based upon that evaluation, our company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the significant deficiency and the material weakness described below. Measures are being taken to include documentation of management oversight and review as part of the appropriate functional procedures.
All of our employees and the bulk of accounting staff are located in the PRC and we do not presently have a Chief Financial Officer, comptroller or similarly titled senior financial officer who is bilingual and experienced in the application of U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. During fiscal 2006 we began a search for an appropriate candidate who can fill such a position; however, as of November 2008, the Company has not engaged one and we are unable to predict when such a person will be hired. During fiscal 2006 we also began providing additional training to our accounting staff in the application of U.S. GAAP. As a result, our management believes that a deficiency in our internal controls continues to exist. Until we expand our staff to include a bilingual senior financial officer who has the requisite experience necessary, and supplement the accounting knowledge of our staff, it is likely that we will continue to have material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures.
Restatement of financial statements
The financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, including the subsequent three month period ended September 30, 2007 have been restated to correct the accounting treatment previously accorded certain transactions.
| · | For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, we erroneously did not value the reduction in exercise price of existing warrants associated with an induced conversion offer. The value of the reduction in exercise price has been calculated at $447,238, and was reflected in the statement of operations as an increase in interest expense, and a resultant increase in net loss and net loss per share for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. The Company had recorded the valuation of the reduction in exercise price as an increase in additional paid-in capital. |
| · | For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, we erroneously deferred, over a three year period commencing in January 2006, $540,000 in consulting expense related to the issuance of 6,000,000 shares of our common stock and $395,675 related to the issuance of 4,700,000 common stock purchase warrants exercisable at $0.15 per share over a five year period. In addition, in February 2006, we issued warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock, exercisable for five years at $.15 per share, as compensation pursuant to a one year financial advisory consulting agreement. The Company had incorrectly deferred the fair value of these warrants of $71,243 over the contract term. The Company has restated the related financial statements to recognize the full expense of these agreements immediately upon entering into the consulting agreements in January 2006 and February 2006, under the provisions of EITF 96-18 and SFAS 123R. These corrections resulted in an increase in consulting expense for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 and a reduction in consulting expense for subsequent periods, including a reduction in consulting expenses of $86,878 for the three month period ended September 30, 2007, as detailed in the tables below. |
| | |
| · | In March 2007, pursuant to a consulting agreement, we issued 4,000,000 shares of our common stock. Initially, we had recorded and reported this issuance incorrectly as a cost of raising capital related to the private placement of $1,500,000 in units sold during the quarter. We restated the financial statements to recognize the full expense of this agreement immediately upon entering into the consulting agreement in March 2007 under the provisions of EITF 96-18 and SFAS 123. This correction resulted in an increase in accumulated deficit for the three month period ended September 30, 2007 of $360,000. |
Other than the items discussed above there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 2. | UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS |
On October 13, 2008 we issued 10,000,000 shares of our common stock to HK Mingtai Investment Co, Ltd. ("HK Mingtai"). These shares were issued in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 ("the Act"). The offering and sale of the common stock in this transaction qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Act since the issuance by us did not involve a public offering. This offering was done with no general solicitation or advertising by us. HK Mingtai was an accredited investor and its representative had an opportunity to ask questions of our management. The offering was not a public offering as defined in Section 4(2) because the offer was made to an insubstantial number of persons and because of the manner of the offering. In addition, HK Mingtai had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since it agreed to, and received, share certificates bearing a legend stating that such shares are restricted. This restriction ensures that these shares will not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not part of a public offering. Based on the analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Act for this transaction.
