For financial reporting purposes, the business combination initially was accounted for as an additional capitalization of China Pharma (a reverse acquisition with Zheda Pharmacy as the acquirer). The operations of Zheda Pharmacy were the continuing operations of China Pharmaceuticals Corporation.
Shortly after the acquisition of Zheda Pharmacy, the registrant realized that management of Sheung Tai Investments refused to turn over day-to-day control of the operations of Zheda Pharmacy to management of the registrant. The disputes between management of the registrant and management of Sheung Tai Investment resulted in litigation and protracted negotiations. In January 2005, the registrant relinquished its ownership of Sheung Tai Investments (and therefore Zheda Pharmacy) in exchange for the 13,848,220 shares of the registrant’s common stock that originally had been issued to the owners of Sheung Tai Investments. Accordingly, this amended report reflects the fact that the registrant did not have control over Zheda Pharmacy and its operations.
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to impairment of long-lived assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, we believe that our estimates, including those for the above-described items, are reasonable.
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS. Our long-lived assets include property, equipment, and goodwill. We assess impairment of long-lived assets whenever changes or events indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. In performing our assessment, we must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets. If these estimates change, in the future we may be required to record impairment charges against these respective assets.
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION. Options granted to employees under the Company’s Stock Option Plan are accounted for by using the intrinsic method under APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25). In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS123), which defines a fair value based method of accounting for stock options. The accounting standards prescribed by SFAS 123 are optional and the Company has continued to account for stock options under the intrinsic value method specified in APB 25.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB, as well as statements made by the company in periodic press releases, oral statements made by the company’s officials to analysts and shareholders in the course of presentations about the company, constitute “forward-looking statements.” Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward looking statements.

ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Quarterly Evaluation of Controls
As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of (i) our disclosure controls and procedures (“Disclosure Controls”), and (ii) our internal control over financial reporting (“Internal Controls”). This evaluation (“Evaluation”) was performed by our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), FAN Di, and ZHOU Li Yang, our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). In this section, we present the conclusions of our CEO and CFO based on and as of the date of the Evaluation, (i) with respect to the effectiveness of our Disclosure Controls, and (ii) with respect to any change in our Internal Controls that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our Internal Controls.
CEO and CFO Certifications
Attached to this annual report, as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2, are certain certifications of the CEO and CFO, which are required in accordance with the Exchange Act and the Commission’s rules implementing such section (the “Rule 13a-14(a)/15d-14(a) Certifications”). This section of the annual report contains the information concerning the Evaluation referred to in the Rule 13a-14(a)/15d-14(a) Certifications. This information should be read in conjunction with the Rule 13a-14(a)/15d-14(a) Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topic presented.
Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls
Disclosure Controls are procedures designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the Commission under the Exchange Act, such as this annual report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure Controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that material information relating to the Company is made known to the CEO and the CFO by others, particularly during the period in which the applicable report is being prepared. Internal Controls, on the other hand, are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that (i) our transactions are properly authorized, (ii) the Company’s assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use, and (iii) our transactions are properly recorded and reported, all to permit the preparation of complete and accurate financial statements in conformity with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Our management does not expect that our Disclosure Controls or our Internal Controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well developed and operated, can provide only reasonable, but not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of the 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
15
assurance that all control issues and instances so of fraud, if any, within the Company 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. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of a system of controls also 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 objectives under all potential future conditions. Over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or because the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Scope of the Evaluation
The CEO and CFO’s evaluation of our Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls included a review of the controls’ (i) objectives, (ii) design, (iii) implementation, and (iv) the effect of the controls on the information generated for use in this quarterly report. In the course of the Evaluation, the CEO and CFO sought to identify data errors, control problems, acts of fraud, and they sought to confirm that appropriate corrective action, including process improvements, was being undertaken. This type of evaluation is done on a quarterly basis so that the conclusions concerning the effectiveness of our controls can be reported in our quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB and annual reports on Form 10-KSB. The overall goals of these various evaluation activities are to monitor our Disclosure Controls and our Internal Controls, and to make modifications if and as necessary. Our external auditors also review Internal Controls in connection with their audit and review activities. Our intent in this regard is that the Disclosure Controls and the Internal Controls will be maintained as dynamic systems that change (including improvements and corrections) as conditions warrant.
Among other matters, we sought in our Evaluation to determine whether there were any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our Internal Controls, which are reasonably likely to adversely affect our ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information, or whether we had identified any acts of fraud, whether or not material, involving management or other employees who have a significant role in our Internal Controls. This information was important for both the Evaluation, generally, and because the Rule 13a-14(a)/15d-14(a) Certifications, Item 5, require that the CEO and CFO disclose that information to our Board (audit committee), and to our independent auditors, and to report on related matters in this section of the quarterly report. In the professional auditing literature, “significant deficiencies” are referred to as “reportable conditions”. These are control issues that could have significant adverse affect on the ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data in the financial statements. A “material weakness” is defined in the auditing literature as a particularly serious reportable condition where the internal control does not reduce, to a relatively low level, the risk that misstatement cause by error or fraud may occur in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements and not be detected within a timely period by employee in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. We also sought to deal with other controls matters in the Evaluation, and in each case, if a problem was identified; we considered what revisions, improvements and/or corrections to make in accordance with our ongoing procedures.

Conclusions
Based upon the Evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that, subject to the limitations noted above, our Disclosure Controls are effective to ensure that material information relating to the Company is made known to management, including the CEO and CFO, particularly during the period when our periodic reports are being prepared, and that our Internal Controls are effective to provide reasonable assurance that our financial statements are fairly presented inconformity with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States. Additionally, there has been no change in our Internal Controls that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to affect, our Internal Controls.
