NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION
China Yongxin Pharmaceuticals Inc.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make certain 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. Significant estimates include collectibility of accounts receivable, accounts payable, sales returns and recoverability of long-term assets.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of China Yongxin Pharmaceuticals Inc. and its wholly owned and majority owned subsidiaries collectively referred to within as the Company. All material inter-company accounts, transactions and profits have been eliminated in consolidation.
MINORITY INTEREST
The Company owns a 90% ownership interest in Jinyongxin Drugstore and Dingjian. The remaining 10% interest in each of the entities is owned by outside third parties. As at March 31, 2008, minority interest in Jinyongxin Drugstore and Dingjian amounted to $27,863, compared to $16,825 as at December 31, 2007. The Company acquired 80% of the outstanding equity interests of Yongxin Medical upon the closing of the Share Exchange in November 2007. The remaining 20% represents minority interest amounting to $2,923,481 as at March 31, 2008 compared to $2,623,303 as at December 31, 2007.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Reserves are recorded primarily on a specific identification basis. As of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, allowance for doubtful debts amounted to $344,834 and $331,475, respectively.
ADVANCES TO SUPPLIERS
The Company advances to certain vendors for purchase of its material. The advances to suppliers are interest free and unsecured. As of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, advance to suppliers amounted to $6,806,086 and $5,729,235, respectively.
INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued on a lower of weighted average cost or market basis. Inventory includes product cost, inbound freight, warehousing costs and vendor allowances not included as a reduction of advertising expense. The Management compares the cost of inventories with the market value and allowance is made for writing down their inventories to market value, if lower. Work in process inventories include the cost of raw materials and outsource processing fees.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over useful lives of 5 to 10 years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Assets held under capital leases are recorded at the lesser of the present value of the future minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased property. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method for substantially all assets with estimated lives of:

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of,” and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations for a Disposal of a Segment of a Business.” The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used in accordance with SFAS 144. SFAS 144 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff accounting bulletin (SAB) 104. Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue net of an allowance for estimated returns, at the time the merchandise is sold or services performed. The allowance for sales returns is estimated based on the Company’s historical experience. Sales taxes are presented on a net basis (excluded from revenues and costs). Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Statement of financial accounting standard No. 107, Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments, requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported in the statements of financial position for current assets and current liabilities qualifying as financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value.
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), ‘‘Share-Based Payment’’ (‘‘SFAS 123R’’), which requires the measurement of all employee share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, using a fair-value-based method and the recording of such expense in the consolidated statements of operations. In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”) regarding the SEC’s interpretation of SFAS 123R and the valuation of share-based payments for public companies. The Company has adopted SFAS 123R and related FASB Staff Positions (“FSPs”) as of January 1, 2006 and will recognize stock-based compensation expense using the modified prospective method.

BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share are calculated in accordance with the Statement of financial accounting standards No. 128 (SFAS No. 128), “Earnings per share”. SFAS No. 128 superseded Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.15 (APB 15). Net income (loss) per share for all periods presented has been restated to reflect the adoption of SFAS No. 128. Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common equivalent shares (restricted stock awards and stock options) outstanding during the period. Weighted average number of common shares was calculated in accordance with the Statement of financial accounting standards No. 141R (SFAS No. 141R), “Business combinations”. Basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.03 and $0.03 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
SEGMENT REPORTING
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131 ("SFAS 131"), "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" requires use of the "management approach" model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company's management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company. The Company allocates its resources and assesses the performance of its sales activities based upon its products and services (see Note 19).
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS 158 ‘Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans—an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R). This Statement improves financial reporting by requiring an employer to recognize the over funded or under funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets of a not-for-profit organization. This Statement also improves financial reporting by requiring an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position, with limited exceptions. An employer with publicly traded equity securities is required to initially recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan and to provide the required disclosures as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006. An employer without publicly traded equity securities is required to recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan and to provide the required disclosures as of the end of the fiscal year ending after June 15, 2007. However, an employer without publicly traded equity securities is required to disclose the following information in the notes to financial statements for a fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006, but before June 16, 2007, unless it has applied the recognition provisions of this Statement in preparing those financial statements:

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (continued)
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”. This Statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling (minority) interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 160 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009. Management is currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on financial statements.
In March 2008, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The new standard 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 The new standard also improves transparency about the location and amounts of derivative instruments in an entity’s financial statements; how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133; and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect its 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. Management is currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations”. This Statement replaces SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations. This Statement retains the fundamental requirements in Statement 141 that the acquisition method of accounting (which Statement 141 called the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. This Statement also establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer: a) recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree; b) recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase and c) determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) will apply prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after Company’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009. While the Company has not yet evaluated this statement for the impact, if any, that SFAS No. 141(R) will have on its consolidated financial statements, the Company will be required to expense costs related to any acquisitions after September 30, 2009.

The amount will be repaid proportionally based on the level of evaluation made by the Insurance Bureaus in the following year. The Company classified the 10% of sales that made through the healthcare program networks as deferred income as the collectablity of the sales is uncertain.

On November 16, 2007, the Company closed the Amended Exchange Agreement with Changchun Yongxin Dirui Medical Co., Ltd., a China corporation ("Yongxin Medical") and all of the shareholders of Yongxin Medical.
Yongxin Medical, was established in 1993. The company is engaged in the wholesale and retail distribution of pharmaceuticals and medical appliances and the cultivation, processing and manufacture of ginseng-based products. The company’s operations are based in Changchun City, Jilin Province, China.
In 2004, Yongxin Medical established "Jilin Province Yongxin Chain Drugstore Ltd."(“Yongxin Drugstore”) with an investment of RMB 2,500,000 (equivalent to $303,000) to focus on developing a terminal network market. In July 2005, the company achieved the franchise right in Jilin province from American Medicine Shoppe (Meixin International Medical Chains) and by now has developed 4 chains of "Meixino Yongxin". Until to October 2006, the Company has developed 11 retail chains in the name of Yongxin Drugstore covering a large community inside Changchun City in China. These drugstores sell over-the-counter western and traditional Chinese machines, and medical treatment appliances and other items.
On, March 16, 2007, Yongxin Drugstore entered into various agreements with retail drug stores in Tianjin and established Tianjin Jingyongxin Chain Drugstore Ltd. (“Jinyongxin Drugstore”) with an investment of $116,868. Yongxin Medical owns a 90% ownership interest in Jinyongxin Drugstore. Jinyongxin Drugstore is located in Tianjin City, China. As of December 31, 2007, Jinyongxin Drugstore had developed 8 retail chain drug stores covering a business area of 2,462 square meters throughout Tianjin city in China.
On May 15, 2007, Yongxin Medical established Jilin Dingjian Natural Health Products Co., Ltd (“Dingjian”) with an investment of $116,868. Yongxin Medical owns a 90% ownership interest in Dingjian. Dingjian was formed under laws of the People's Republic of China and is located in Changchun City, Jilin Province
On June 15, 2007, Yongxin Drugstore established “Baishan Caoantang Chain Drugstore Ltd.” (“Caoantang Drugstore”) with an investment of $328,430, including $144,509 in cash and $183,921 in cash to purchase the property and equipment from the former shareholder. And Yongxin Drugstore was agreed to pay $80,076 evenly over the next 30 months for this investment. Caoantang Drugstore is a 100%-owned subsidiary of Yongxin Drugstore. Caoantang Drugstore owns 31 chain retail drugstores covering a business area of 3,000 square meters, which sell over-the-counter western and traditional Chinese machines, and medical treatment appliances and other items.

In accordance with the Amended Exchange Agreement on November 16, 2007 between the Company and Yongxin Medical, the Company issued 21,000,000 shares of newly issued common stock and 5 million shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the Yongxin Medical shareholders or their designees, representing, immediately following closing, 70% of the total issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company in exchange for 80% of the equity interest of Yongxin Medical. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible over a 3 year period, into up to 30 million shares of common stock.
For accounting purposes, this transaction is being accounted for as a reverse merger, since the stockholders of Yongxin Medical own a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, and the directors and executive officers of Yongxin Medical became the directors and executive officers of the Company. This acquisition was accounted for at historical cost in a manner similar to that in pooling of interests method since after the acquisition, the former shareholders of Yongxin Medical acquired majority of the outstanding shares of the Company. The financial statements of the legal acquirer are not significant; therefore, no pro forma financial information is submitted. Thus, the historical financial statements are still those of "Changchun Yongxin Dirui Medical Co, Inc. & Subsidiaries".
Yongxin was established in 1993, for the purpose of engaging in the business of medicines wholesale, retail and third-party medicine logistics. Yongxin is located in Changchun City, Jilin Province with a staff of 358 of which 18 are Licensed Pharmacists and 55% of which have a college education.
With the business idea of "sustained operation, integrated innovation", Yongxin Medical has built a marketing network covering the whole Jilin Province and radiating the northeast region, and the brand image of "sustained innovation" of Yongxin Medical has firmly enjoyed popular support. In 2003, Yongxin Medical passed Jilin Provincial FSDA Quality Certification System and National GSP Certification.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our functional currency is the Chinese Renminbi; however the accompanying financial statements have been translated and presented in United States Dollars ($).
TRANSLATION ADJUSTMENT
As of March 31, 2008, the accounts of Yomgxin were maintained, and its financial statements were expressed, in Chinese Yuan Renminbi (CNY). Such financial statements were translated into U.S. Dollars (USD) in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounts Standards (“SFAS”) No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation,” with the CNY as the functional currency. According to the Statement, all assets and liabilities were translated at the current exchange rate, stockholder’s equity are translated at the historical rates and income statement items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income” as a component of shareholders’ equity.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make certain 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. Significant estimates include collectibility of accounts receivable, accounts payable, sales returns and recoverability of long-term assets.
23
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nutradyne Group, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries collectively referred to within as the Company. All material inter-company accounts, transactions and profits have been eliminated in consolidation.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Reserves are recorded primarily on a specific identification basis.
INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued on a lower of weighted average cost or market basis. Inventory includes product cost, inbound freight, warehousing costs and vendor allowances not included as a reduction of advertising expense. The Management compares the cost of inventories with the market value and allowance is made for writing down their inventories to market value, if lower. Work in process inventories include the cost of raw materials and outsource processing fees.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over useful lives of 5 to 10 years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Assets held under capital leases are recorded at the lesser of the present value of the future minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased property. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method for substantially all assets with estimated lives of:
Buildings | 20 years |
Infrastructures and leasehold improvement | 10 years |
Equipment (including electronic facilities, sports, education and recreation facilities) | 10 years |
Automobile | 10 years |
Furniture and Fixtures | 5 years |
Computer Hardware and Software | 5 years |
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of,” and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations for a Disposal of a Segment of a Business.” The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used in accordance with SFAS 144. SFAS 144 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal.
24
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff accounting bulletin (SAB) 104. Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue net of an allowance for estimated returns, at the time the merchandise is sold or services performed. The allowance for sales returns is estimated based on the Company’s historical experience. Sales taxes are presented on a net basis (excluded from revenues and costs). Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Statement of financial accounting standard No. 107, Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments, requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported in the statements of financial position for current assets and current liabilities qualifying as financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value.
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), ‘‘Share-Based Payment’’ (‘‘SFAS 123R’’), which requires the measurement of all employee share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, using a fair-value-based method and the recording of such expense in the consolidated statements of operations. In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”) regarding the SEC’s interpretation of SFAS 123R and the valuation of share-based payments for public companies. The Company has adopted SFAS 123R and related FASB Staff Positions (“FSPs”) as of January 1, 2006 and will recognize stock-based compensation expense using the modified prospective method.

Comparison of Three Month Periods Ended March 31, 2008 and 2007.
Net Revenues. For the three month period ended March 31, 2008, our net revenues increased approximately 49% from $10,076,930 to $14,993,597 relative to the same period ended March 31, 2007. The increase in revenues resulted mainly from the remodeling of the stores, developing new chain stores and due to stronger market.
Cost of Sales. Cost of sales decreased from $8,497,963, or approximately 84% of net revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 2007, to $12,466,690, or approximately 83% of net sales for the three month period ended March 31, 2008. The approximately 1% decrease was primarily due to the economies of scale due to higher purchases with the increase in revenue.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased approximately 60% from $1,578,967 for the three month period ended March 31, 2007 to $2,526,906 for the three month period ended March 31, 2008. This increase in gross profit was primarily due to the increase in the revenues and the reduction in the cost of sales during the period.
Operating Expenses. For the three month period ended March 31, 2008, overall operating expenses increased approximately 79% from $719,961 to $1,286,421 relative to the three month period ended March 31, 2007. This increase was mainly due to the following:
Selling Expenses. Selling expenses increased approximately 96% from $389,088 for the three month period ended March 31, 2007 to $761,021 for the same period in 2008. This increase was related to an increase in revenues for the period.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses were $330,873 for the three month period ended March 31, 2007, as compared to $525,400 for the three month period ended March 31, 2008, an increase of 59%. This increase is due to increase in operations of the Company.
Net Income. Net income increased approximately 53% from a net income of $503,054 for the three month period ended March 31, 2007 to a net income of $767,356 for the three month period ended March 31, 2008.

The Company believes that the existing cash and cash equivalents, and cash generated from operating activities will be sufficient to meet the needs of its current operations, including anticipated capital expenditures and scheduled debt repayments, for the next twelve months and on a long term basis. The Company may also seek additional financing to meet the needs of its long-term strategic plan.
26

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS 158, "Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans—an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)." This Statement improves financial reporting by requiring an employer to recognize the over funded or under funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets of a not-for-profit organization. This Statement also improves financial reporting by requiring an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position, with limited exceptions. An employer with publicly traded equity securities is required to initially recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan and to provide the required disclosures as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006. An employer without publicly traded equity securities is required to recognize the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan and to provide the required disclosures as of the end of the fiscal year ending after June 15, 2007. However, an employer without publicly traded equity securities is required to disclose the following information in the notes to financial statements for a fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006, but before June 16, 2007, unless it has applied the recognition provisions of this Statement in preparing those financial statements:
a. A brief description of the provisions of this Statement
b. The date that adoption is required
c. The date the employer plans to adopt the recognition provisions of this Statement, if earlier.
The requirement to measure plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the employer’s fiscal year-end statement of financial position is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The management is currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”. This Statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling (minority) interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 160 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009. Management is currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on financial statements.
In March 2008, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The new standard 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 The new standard also improves transparency about the location and amounts of derivative instruments in an entity’s financial statements; how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133; and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect its 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. Management is currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations”. This Statement replaces SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations. This Statement retains the fundamental requirements in Statement 141 that the acquisition method of accounting (which Statement 141 called the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. This Statement also establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer: a) recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree; b) recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase and c) determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) will apply prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after Company’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009. While the Company has not yet evaluated this statement for the impact, if any, that SFAS No. 141(R) will have on its consolidated financial statements, the Company will be required to expense costs related to any acquisitions after September 30, 2009.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Discloses About Market Risk
Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on an evaluation carried out as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) were effective as of March 31, 2008.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Based on the evaluation of our management as required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 of the Exchange Act, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Please see Item 5 of Part II for a discussion of our internal control over financial reporting subsequent to the closing of the Share Exchange.
None.
Any investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Investors should carefully consider the risks described below and all of the information contained in this report before deciding whether to purchase our common stock. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by these risks if any of them actually occur. The shares of our common stock are currently quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, or OTCBB under the symbol "CYXN." If and when our common stock is traded, the trading price could decline due to any of these risks, and an investor may lose all or part of his or her investment. Some of these factors have affected our financial condition and operating results in the past or are currently affecting us. This report also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including the risks described below and elsewhere in this report
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
Purchases of Many of Our Products Are Discretionary, May Be Particularly Affected by Adverse Trends in the General Economy, and an Economic Decline Will Make it More Difficult to Generate Revenue.
The success of our operations depends to a significant extent upon a number of factors relating to discretionary consumer spending in China. These factors include economic conditions and perceptions of such conditions by consumers, employment rates, the level of consumers' disposable income, business conditions, interest rates, consumer debt levels, availability of credit and levels of taxation in regional and local markets in China where we manufacture and sell our products. There can be no assurance that consumer spending on many of our products, including skin-care products, cosmetics and nutritional supplements, will not be adversely affected by changes in general economic conditions in China and globally.
29
While the Chinese economy has experienced rapid growth in recent years, such growth has been uneven among various sectors of the economy and in different geographical areas of the country. Also, many observers believe that this rapid growth cannot continue at its current pace and that an economic correction may be imminent. Rapid economic growth can also lead to growth in the money supply and rising inflation. During the past two decades, the rate of inflation in China has been as high as approximately 20% and China has experienced deflation as low as minus 2%. If prices for our products rise at a rate that is insufficient to compensate for the rise in the costs of supplies such as raw materials, it may have an adverse effect on our profitability. In order to control inflation in the past, the PRC government has imposed controls on bank credit, limits on loans for fixed assets and restrictions on state bank lending. The implementation of such policies may impede economic growth. In October 2004, the People's Bank of China, the PRC's central bank, raised interest rates for the first time in nearly a decade and indicated in a statement that the measure was prompted by inflationary concerns in the Chinese economy. In April 2006 and May 2007, the People's Bank of China raised the interest rate again. Repeated rises in interest rates by the central bank could slow economic activity in China which could, in turn, materially increase our costs and also reduce demand for our products.
The Success of Our Business Depends on Our Ability to Market and Advertise Our Products Effectively.
Our ability to establish effective marketing and advertising campaigns is key to our success. Our advertisements promote our merchandise and our proprietary brand of ginseng-based products, and the pricing of such products. If we are unable to increase awareness of our company and our products, we may not be able to attract new customers. Our marketing activities may not be successful in promoting our products or pricing strategies. We cannot assure you that our marketing programs will be adequate to support our future growth, which may result in a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
We May Be Unable to Identify and Respond Effectively to Shifting Customer Preferences, and We May Fail to Optimize Our Product Offering and Inventory Position.
Consumer preferences in the drugstore industry change rapidly and are difficult to predict. The success of our business depends on our ability to predict accurately and respond to future changes in consumer preferences, carry the inventory demanded by customers, deliver the appropriate quality of products, price products correctly and implement effective purchasing procedures. We must optimize our product selection and inventory positions based on consumer preferences and sales trends. If we fail to anticipate, identify or react appropriately to changes in consumer preferences and adapt our product selection to these changing preferences, we could experience excess inventories, higher than normal markdowns or an inability to sell our products, which could significantly reduce our revenue and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If We Fail to Maintain Optimal Inventory Levels, Our Inventory Holding Costs Could Increase or Cause Us to Lose Sales, Either of which Could Have a Material Adverse Effect on Our Business, Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
While we must maintain sufficient inventory levels to operate our business successfully and meet our customers' demands, we must be careful to avoid amassing excess inventory. Changing consumer demands, manufacturer backorders, uncertainty surrounding new product launches and our increased offering of our proprietary ginseng-based products expose us to increased inventory risks. Demand for products can change rapidly and unexpectedly, including the time between when the product is ordered from the supplier to the time it is offered for sale. We carry a wide variety of products and must maintain sufficient inventory levels of our products. We may be unable to sell certain products in the event that consumer demand changes. Our inventory holding costs will increase if we carry excess inventory, however, if we do not have a sufficient inventory of a product to fulfill customer orders, we may lose orders or customers, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We cannot assure you that we can accurately predict consumer demand and events and avoid over-stocking or under-stocking products.
Our Business and the Success of Our Products Could Be Harmed if We Are Unable to Maintain Our Brand Image.
We believe that establishing and strengthening our proprietary brands is critical to achieving widespread acceptance of our products and to establishing key strategic relationships. The importance of brand recognition will increase as current and potential competitors enter the Chinese pharmaceutical market with competing products. Our ability to promote and position our brands depends largely on the success of our marketing efforts and our ability to provide high quality products and customer service. These activities are expensive and we may not generate a corresponding increase in sales to justify these costs. If we fail to establish and maintain our brand, or if our brand value is damaged or diluted, we may be unable to maintain or increase our sales or revenue.

If We Are Unable to Manage the Distribution of Our Products at Our Distribution Centers, We May Be Unable to Meet Customer Demand.
Substantially all of our products are distributed to our stores and our wholesale customers through our "Logistics Center" located in our "Logistics Plaza" located in Changchun. The efficient operation and management of this facility is essential to our meeting customer demands ability to meet customer demand. Our business would suffer if the operation of this facility were disrupted. Our failure to manage this facility properly could result in higher distribution costs, excess or sufficient inventory, or an inability to fulfill customer orders, each of which could result in a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Due to the Geographic Concentration of Our Sales in the Northeast Region of China, Our Results of Operations and Financial Condition Are Subject to Fluctuations in Regional Economic Conditions.
A significant percentage of our total sales are made in the northeast region of China, particularly in the Jilin province. For the quarter ended March 31, 2008 and years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, approximately 75%, 85% and 80% of revenues, respectively, were generated from this area. Our concentration of sales in this area heightens our exposure to adverse developments related to competition, as well as economic and demographic changes in this region. Our geographic concentration might result in a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations in the future.
We Have Historically Depended on a Limited Number of Customers for a Significant Portion of Our Revenues and this Dependence Is Likely to Continue.
We have historically depended on a limited number of customers for a significant portion of our revenues. We anticipate that a limited number of customers will continue to contribute to a significant portion of our revenues in the future. Maintaining the relationships with these significant customers is vital to the expansion and success of our business, as the loss of a major customer could expose us to risk of substantial losses. Our sales and revenue could decline and our results of operations could be materially adversely affected if one or more of these significant customers stops or reduces its purchasing of our products, or if we fail to expand our customer base for our products.
Certain Disruptions in Supply Of And Changes in the Competitive Environment for Our Products May Adversely Affect Our Profitability.
We carry a broad range of merchandise in our stores, including pharmaceuticals, traditional Chinese medicines, herbal and nutritional supplements and cosmetics. A significant disruption in the supply of these products could decrease inventory levels and sales, and materially adversely affect our business. Shortages of products or interruptions in transportation systems, labor strikes, work stoppages, war, acts of terrorism or other interruptions to or difficulties in the employment of labor or transportation in the markets in which we purchase products may adversely affect our ability to maintain sufficient inventories of our products to meet consumer demand. If we were to experience a significant or prolonged shortage of products from any of our suppliers and could not procure the products from other sources, we would be unable to meet customer demand, which would adversely affect our sales, margins and customer relations.
Our Operations Would Be Materially Adversely Affected if Third-Party Carriers Were Unable to Transport Our Products on a Timely Basis.
All of our products are shipped through third party carriers. If a strike or other event prevented or disrupted these carriers from transporting our products, other carriers may be unavailable or may not have the capacity to deliver our products to our customers and to our retail stores. If adequate third party sources to ship our products were unavailable at any time, our business would be materially adversely affected.
31
The Market for Our Products and Services Is Very Competitive and, if We Cannot Effectively Compete, Our Business Will Be Harmed.
The industries in which we operate are highly fragmented and very competitive. We compete with local drugstores and other local manufacturers of herbal products and with large foreign multinational companies that offer products that are similar to ours. Some of these competitors have larger local or regional customer bases, more locations, more brand equity, and substantially greater financial, marketing and other resources than we have. As a result, our competitors may be in a stronger position to respond quickly to potential acquisitions and other market opportunities, new or emerging technologies and changes in customer tastes. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain or increase our market share against the emergence of these or other sources of competition. Failure to maintain and enhance our competitive position could materially adversely affect our business and prospects
We May Not Be Successful in Competing with Other Wholesalers and Distributors of Pharmaceutical Products in the Tender Processes for the Purchase of Medicines by State-Owned and State-Controlled Hospitals.
Our wholesale business sells various pharmaceutical products to hospitals owned and controlled by government authorities in the PRC. Government owned hospitals purchase pharmaceutical products by using collective tender processes. During a collective tender process, a hospital establishes a committee of recognized pharmaceutical experts, which assesses bids submitted by pharmaceutical manufacturers. The hospitals may only purchase pharmaceuticals that win in collective tender processes. The collective tender process for pharmaceuticals with the same chemical composition must be conducted at least annually, and pharmaceuticals that have won in the collective tender processes previously must participate and win in the collective tender processes in the following period before hospitals may make new purchases. If we are unable to win purchase contracts through the collective tender processes in which we decide to participate, we will lose market share to our competitors, and our sales and profitability will be adversely affected.
Counterfeit Products in China Could Negatively Impact Our Revenues, Brand Reputation, Business and Results of Operations.
Our products are also subject to competition from counterfeit pharmaceuticals, which are pharmaceuticals manufactured without proper licenses or approvals and are fraudulently mislabeled with respect to their content and/or manufacturer. Counterfeit pharmaceuticals are generally sold at lower prices than the authentic products due to their low production costs, and in some cases are very similar in appearance to the authentic products. Counterfeit pharmaceuticals may or may not have the same chemical content as their authentic counterparts. Although the PRC government has recently been increasingly active in policing counterfeit pharmaceuticals, there is not yet an effective counterfeit pharmaceutical regulation control and enforcement system in China. The proliferation of counterfeit pharmaceuticals has grown in recent years and may continue to grow in the future. Despite our implementation of quality controls, we cannot assure you that we would not be distributing or selling counterfeit products inadvertently. Any accidental sale or distribution of counterfeit products can subject our company to fines, administrative penalties, litigation and negative publicity, which could negatively impact our revenues, brand reputation, business and results of operations.
The Retail Prices of Some of Our Products are Subject to Price Controls by the PRC Government, which May Affect Both Our Revenues and Net Income.
The laws of the PRC permit the PRC government to fix and adjust prices of certain pharmaceutical products, including many of those listed in the Medical Insurance Catalog. Through these price controls, the government can fix retail prices and set retail price ceiling for certain of the pharmaceutical products we sell. Additionally, the PRC government may periodically adjust the retail prices of these products downward in order to make pharmaceuticals more affordable to the general Chinese population. While our sales of pharmaceutical products are not affected by the price controls because we currently sell such products are prices below the price control level, we cannot guarantee that our sales of these products will not be affected in the future, as price controls may be increased or may affect additional products. To the extent that we are subject to price controls, our revenue, gross profit, gross margin and net income will be affected because the revenue we derive from our sales will be limited and we may face no limitation on our costs. Further, if price controls affect both our revenue and costs, our ability to be profitable and the extent of our profitability will be effectively subject to determination by the applicable regulatory authorities in the PRC. Any future price controls or price reductions may reduce our revenue and profitability and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
32
If We Do Not Comply With the Applicable PRC Laws and Regulations Controlling the Sale of Medicines Under the PRC National Medical Insurance Program, We May Be Subject to Fines and Other Penalties.
Persons eligible to participate in the PRC National Medical Insurance Program can buy medicines that have been included in the medical insurance catalog using a medical insurance card in an authorized pharmacy. The applicable PRC government social security bureau then reimburses the pharmacy. PRC law also forbids pharmacies from selling goods other than pre-proved medicines when purchases are made with medical insurance cards. While we have established procedures to prevent our drugstores from selling unauthorized goods to customers who make purchases with medical insurance cards, we cannot assure you that these procedures will be properly followed at all times in all of our stores. Violations of this prohibition by any of our drugstores may result in the revocation of its status as an authorized pharmacy. Additionally, we could be subject to other fines or other penalties, and to negative publicity, which could damage our company's reputation and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Our Certificates, Permits, and Licenses Related to Our Operations Are Subject to Governmental Control and Renewal and Failure to Obtain Renewal Will Cause All or Part of Our Operations to Be Terminated.
We are subject to various PRC laws and regulations pertaining to our wholesale, retail and manufacturing operations. We have attained certificates, permits, and licenses required for the operation of a pharmaceutical distributor and retailer and the manufacture of herbal and nutritional products in the PRC. We cannot assure you that we will have all necessary permits, certificates and authorizations for the operation of our business at all times. Additionally, our certifications, permits and authorizations are subject to periodic renewal by the relevant government authorities. We intend to apply for renewal of these certificates, permits and authorizations prior to their expiration. During the renewal process, we will be re-evaluated by the appropriate governmental authorities and must comply with the then prevailing standards and regulations which may change from time to time. In the event that we are not able to renew the certificates, permits and licenses, all or part of our operations may be terminated. Furthermore, if escalating compliance costs associated with governmental standards and regulations restrict or prohibit any part of our operations, it may adversely affect our operations and profitability.
Our Planned Expansion of Sales Into Overseas Markets Could Fail, Reduce Operating Results and/or Expose Us to Increased Risks Associated With Different Market Dynamics And Competition in any of the Foreign Countries Where We Attempt to Sell Our Products.
We could face many new obstacles in our planned expansion of product sales in overseas markets. We currently have plans to open two retail pharmacy stores in the United States in fiscal 2008. These markets are untested for our products and we face risks in expanding our business overseas, which include differences in regulatory product testing requirements, patent protection, taxation policy, legal systems and rules, marketing costs, fluctuations in currency exchange rates and changes in political and economic conditions. We may not be as successful as our competitors in generating revenues in international markets due to the lack of recognition of our products or other factors. Developing product recognition overseas is expensive and time-consuming and our international expansion efforts may be more costly and less profitable than we expect. If we are not successful in our target markets, our sales could decline, our margins could be negatively impacted and we could lose market share, any of which could materially harm our business, results of operations and profitability.
We May Suffer as a Result of Product Liability or Defective Products.
We may produce or sell products which inadvertently have an adverse effect on the health of individuals despite proper testing which may expose us to potential product liability claims. Such claims may arise despite our quality controls, proper testing and instruction for use of our products, either due to a defect during manufacturing or due to the individual's improper use of the product. In addition, we may be required to participate in a recall of defective products. Adverse side effects or manufacturing problems could also result in adverse publicity which could harm our business.
Existing PRC laws and regulations do not require us to maintain third party liability insurance to cover product liability claims. However, if a product liability claim is brought against us, it may, regardless of merit or eventual outcome, result in damage to our reputation, breach of contract with our customers, decreased demand for our products, costly litigation, product recalls, loss of revenue, and the inability to commercialize some products.
33
We Cannot Guarantee the Protection of Our Intellectual Property Rights and if Infringement of Our Intellectual Property Rights Occurs, Including Counterfeiting of Our Products, Our Reputation and Business May Be Adversely Affected.
To protect the reputation of our products, we have sought to file or register our intellectual property, as appropriate, in the PRC where we have our primary business presence. As of Marcy 31, 2008, we had registered 4 trademarks. Our products are currently sold under these trademarks in the PRC, and we plan to expand the sale and distribution of our products to other international markets. We plan to apply for trademark protection of these and other marks in the United States in connection with the expansion of our retail drugstores into California. There is no assurance that there will not be any infringement of our brand name or other registered trademarks or counterfeiting of our products in the future, in China, the U.S. or elsewhere. Should any such infringement and/or counterfeiting occur, our reputation and business may be adversely affected. We may also incur significant expenses and substantial amounts of time and effort to enforce our trademark rights in the future. Such diversion of our resources may adversely affect our existing business and future expansion plans.
If Our Products Are Alleged to or Found to Conflict with Patents that Have Been or May Be Granted to Competitors or Others, Our Reputation and Business May Be Adversely Affected.
The competitive nature of the nutritional and herbal products market make the patent position of the manufacturers of such products subject to numerous uncertainties related to complex legal and factual issues. While we currently do not own any patents or license patents from third parties, other parties could bring legal actions against us claiming damages and seeking to enjoin manufacturing and marketing of our products for allegedly conflicting with patents held by them. Any such litigation could result in substantial cost to us and diversion of effort by our management and technical personnel. If any such actions are successful, in addition to any potential liability for damages, we could be required to obtain a license in order to continue to manufacture or market the affected products. There can be no assurance that we would prevail in any such action or that any license required under any such patent would be made available on acceptable terms, if at all. Failure to obtain needed patents, licenses or proprietary information held by others may have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, if we were to become involved in such litigation, it could consume a substantial portion of our time and resources.
Also, with respect to licensed technology, there can be no assurance that the licensor of the technology will have the resources, financial or otherwise, or desire to defend against any challenges to the rights of such licensor to its patents.
We Rely on Trade Secret Protections through Confidentiality Agreements with Our Employees, Customers and Other Parties; the Breach of Such Agreements Could Adversely Affect Our Business and Results of Operations.
We also rely on trade secrets, which we seek to protect, in part, through confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements with our employees, customers and other parties. There can be no assurance that these agreements will not be breached, that we would have adequate remedies for any such breach or that our trade secrets will not otherwise become known to or independently developed by competitors. To the extent that consultants, key employees or other third parties apply technological information independently developed by them or by others to our proposed projects, disputes may arise as to the proprietary rights to such information that may not be resolved in our favor. We may be involved from time to time in litigation to determine the enforceability, scope and validity of our proprietary rights. Any such litigation could result in substantial cost and diversion of effort by our management and technical personnel.
The Failure to Manage Growth Effectively Could Have an Adverse Effect on Our Employee Efficiency, Product Quality, Working Capital Levels, and Results of Operations.
Any significant growth in the market for our products or our entry into new markets may require and expansion of our employee base for managerial, operational, financial, and other purposes. As of March 31, 2008, we had approximately 650 full time employees. During any growth, we may face problems related to our operational and financial systems and controls, including quality control and delivery and service capacities. We would also need to continue to expand, train and manage our employee base. Continued future growth will impose significant added responsibilities upon the members of management to identify, recruit, maintain, integrate, and motivate new employees.
34
Aside from increased difficulties in the management of human resources, we may also encounter working capital issues, as we will need increased liquidity to finance the purchase of raw materials and supplies, development of new products, and the hiring of additional employees. For effective growth management, we will be required to continue improving our operations, management, and financial systems and control. Our failure to manage growth effectively may lead to operational and financial inefficiencies that will have a negative effect on our profitability. We cannot assure investors that we will be able to timely and effectively meet that demand and maintain the quality standards required by our existing and potential customers.
We Are Dependent on Certain Key Personnel and Loss of These Key Personnel Could Have a Material Adverse Effect on Our Business, Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Our success is, to a certain extent, attributable to the management, sales and marketing, and operational and technical expertise of certain key personnel. Each of the named executive officers performs key functions in the operation of our business. The loss of a significant number of these employees could have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We Are Dependent on a Trained Workforce and an Inability to Retain or Effectively Recruit Such Employees, Including In-Store Pharmacists for Our Stores, Could Have a Material Adverse Effect on Our Business, Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
We must attract, recruit and retain a sizeable workforce of qualified and trained staff, including in-store pharmacists, in order to operate our retail drugstores. Applicable PRC regulations require at least one qualified pharmacist to be stationed in each drugstore to instruct or advise customers on prescription medications. A shortage of pharmacists in the past few years has occurred in the past few years due to increasing demand within the drugstore industry as well as demand from other businesses in the healthcare industry. We face competition for personnel from other drugstore chains, supermarkets, retail chains, and pharmaceutical companies. We cannot assure you that we will be able to attract, hire and retain sufficient numbers of in-store pharmacists necessary to continue to develop and grow our business.
Additionally, we must recruit and retain technically competent employees to develop and manufacture our pharmaceutical products. Our ability to implement effectively our business strategy and expand our operations will depend upon, among other factors, the successful recruitment and retention of additional highly skilled and experienced pharmacists and other technical and marketing personnel. There is significant competition for technologically qualified personnel in our business and we may not be successful in recruiting or retaining sufficient qualified personnel consistent with our operational needs.
Our Quarterly Results May Fluctuate Because of Many Factors and, as a Result, Investors Should Not Rely on Quarterly Operating Results as Indicative of Future Results.
Fluctuations in operating results or the failure of operating results to meet the expectations of public market analysts and investors may negatively impact the value of our securities. Quarterly operating results may fluctuate in the future due to a variety of factors that could affect revenues or expenses in any particular quarter. Fluctuations in quarterly operating results could cause the value of our securities to decline. Investors should not rely on quarter-to-quarter comparisons of results of operations as an indication of future performance. As a result of the factors listed below, it is possible that in future periods results of operations may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors. This could cause the market price of our securities to decline. Factors that may affect our quarterly results include:
· | vulnerability of our business to a general economic downturn in China; |
· | fluctuation and unpredictability of costs related to the raw materials used to manufacture our products; |
· | seasonality of our business; |
· | changes in the laws of the PRC that affect our operations; |
35
· | competition from our competitors; and |
· | Our ability to obtain necessary government certifications and/or licenses to conduct our business. |
Our Strategy to Acquire Companies May Result in Unsuitable Acquisitions or Failure to Successfully Integrate Acquired Companies, Which Could Lead to Reduced Profitability.
We may embark on a growth strategy through acquisitions of companies or operations that complement existing product lines, customers or other capabilities. We may be unsuccessful in identifying suitable acquisition candidates, or may be unable to consummate a desired acquisition. To the extent any future acquisitions are completed, we may be unsuccessful in integrating acquired companies or their operations, or if integration is more difficult than anticipated, we may experience disruptions that could have a material adverse impact on future profitability. Some of the risks that may affect our ability to integrate, or realize any anticipated benefits from, acquisitions include:
· | unexpected losses of key employees or customer of the acquired company; |
· | difficulties integrating the acquired company’s standards, processes, procedures and controls; |
· | difficulties coordinating new product and process development; |
· | difficulties hiring additional management and other critical personnel; |
· | difficulties increasing the scope, geographic diversity and complexity of our operations; |
· | difficulties consolidating facilities, transferring processes and know-how; |
· | difficulties reducing costs of the acquired company's business; |
· | diversion of management's attention from our management; and |
· | adverse impacts on existing business relationships with customers. |
RISKS RELATED TO US DOING BUSINESS IN CHINA
Substantially All of Our Assets Are Located in the PRC and Substantially All of Our Revenues Are Derived from Our Operations in China, and Changes in the Political and Economic Policies of the PRC Government Could Have a Significant Impact Upon the Business We May Be Able to Conduct in the PRC and Accordingly on the Results of Our Operations and Financial Condition.
Our business operations may be adversely affected by the current and future political environment in the PRC. The Chinese government exerts substantial influence and control over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities. Our ability to operate in China may be adversely affected by changes in Chinese laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, import and export tariffs, raw materials, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. Under the current government leadership, the government of the PRC has been pursuing economic reform policies that encourage private economic activity and greater economic decentralization. There is no assurance, however, that the government of the PRC will continue to pursue these policies, or that it will not significantly alter these policies from time to time without notice.
Our Operations Are Subject to PRC Laws and Regulations that Are Sometimes Vague and Uncertain. Any Changes in such PRC Laws and Regulations, or the Interpretations thereof, May Have a Material and Adverse Effect on Our Business.
The PRC's legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike the common law system prevalent in the United States, decided legal cases have little value as precedent in China. There are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of PRC laws and regulations, including but not limited to, the laws and regulations governing our business, or the enforcement and performance of our arrangements with customers in the event of the imposition of statutory liens, death, bankruptcy or criminal proceedings. The Chinese government has been developing a comprehensive system of commercial laws, and considerable progress has been made in introducing laws and regulations
36
dealing with economic matters such as foreign investment, corporate organization and governance, commerce, taxation and trade. However, because these laws and regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited volume of published cases and judicial interpretation and their lack of force as precedents, interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve significant uncertainties. New laws and regulations that affect existing and proposed future businesses may also be applied retroactively.
Our principal operating subsidiary, Changchun Yongxin Dirui Medical Co., Ltd., ("Yongxin Medical") is considered a foreign invested enterprise under PRC laws, and as a result is required to comply with PRC laws and regulations, including laws and regulations specifically governing the activities and conduct of foreign invested enterprises. We cannot predict what effect the interpretation of existing or new PRC laws or regulations may have on our businesses. If the relevant authorities find us in violation of PRC laws or regulations, they would have broad discretion in dealing with such a violation, including, without limitation:
· | levying fines; |
· | revoking our business license, other licenses or authorities; |
· | requiring that we restructure our ownership or operations; and |
· | requiring that we discontinue any portion or all of our business. |
The Scope of Our Business License in China is Limited, and We May Not Expand or Continue Our Business Without Government Approval and Renewal, Respectively.
Our principal operating subsidiary, Yongxin Medical, is a foreign-owned enterprise, commonly known as a WFOE. A WFOE can only conduct business within its approved business scope, which ultimately appears on its business license. Our license permits us to design, manufacture, sell and market pharmaceutical products throughout the PRC. Any amendment to the scope of our business requires further application and government approval. In order for us to expand our business beyond the scope of our license, it will be required to enter into a negotiation with the authorities for the approval to expand the scope of our business. We cannot assure investors that Yongxin Medical will be able to obtain the necessary government approval for any change or expansion of its business.
Our Business is Subject to a Variety of Environmental Laws and Regulations. Our Failure to Comply With Environmental Laws and Regulations May Have a Material Adverse Effect on Our Business and Results of Operations.
We are subject to various environmental laws and regulations that require us to obtain environmental permits and are subject to registration and inspection by the State Food and Drug Administration of China ("SFDA"). We have a provincial license issued by the Business Administration Bureau, Jilin Province. Although we are currently compliant with all provisions of our registrations and licenses, we cannot assure you that at all times we will be in compliance with environmental laws and regulations or our environmental permits or that we will not be required to expend significant funds to comply with, or discharge liabilities arising under, environmental laws, regulations and permits. Additionally, we cannot guarantee you that our licenses and registrations will be renewed. Any non-renewal of any of our required permits and licenses could result in the termination of our business operations.
Recent PRC Regulations Relating to Acquisitions of PRC Companies by Foreign Entities May Create Regulatory Uncertainties that Could Restrict or Limit Our Ability to Operate, Including Our Ability to Pay Dividends.
The PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, issued a public notice in January 2005 concerning foreign exchange regulations on mergers and acquisitions in China. The public notice states that if an offshore company controlled by PRC residents intends to acquire a PRC company, such acquisition will be subject to strict examination by the relevant foreign exchange authorities. The public notice also states that the approval of the relevant foreign exchange authorities is required for any sale or transfer by the PRC residents of a PRC company's assets or equity interests to foreign entities for equity interests or assets of the foreign entities.
37
In April 2005, SAFE issued another public notice further explaining the January notice. In accordance with the April notice, if an acquisition of a PRC company by an offshore company controlled by PRC residents has been confirmed by a Foreign Investment Enterprise Certificate prior to the promulgation of the January notice, the PRC residents must each submit a registration form to the local SAFE branch with respect to their respective ownership interests in the offshore company, and must also file an amendment to such registration if the offshore company experiences material events, such as changes in the share capital, share transfer, mergers and acquisitions, spin-off transaction or use of assets in China to guarantee offshore obligations. The April notice also provides that failure to comply with the registration procedures set forth therein may result in restrictions on our PRC resident shareholders and subsidiaries. Pending the promulgation of detailed implementation rules, the relevant government authorities are reluctant to commence processing any registration or application for approval required under the SAFE notices.
On August 8, 2006, the PRC Ministry of Commerce ("MOFCOM"), joined by the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council, the State Administration of Taxation, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, the China Securities Regulatory Commission and SAFE, released a substantially amended version of the Provisions for Foreign Investors to Merge with or Acquire Domestic Enterprises (the "Revised M&A Regulations"), which took effect September 8, 2006. These new rules significantly revised China's regulatory framework governing onshore-to-offshore restructurings and foreign acquisitions of domestic enterprises. These new rules signify greater PRC government attention to cross-border merger, acquisition and other investment activities, by confirming MOFCOM as a key regulator for issues related to mergers and acquisitions in China and requiring MOFCOM approval of a broad range of merger, acquisition and investment transactions. Further, the new rules establish reporting requirements for acquisition of control by foreigners of companies in key industries, and reinforce the ability of the Chinese government to monitor and prohibit foreign control transactions in key industries.
These new rules may significantly affect the means by which offshore-onshore restructurings are undertaken in China in connection with offshore private equity and venture capital financings, mergers and acquisitions. It is expected that such transactional activity in China in the near future will require significant case-by-case guidance from MOFCOM and other government authorities as appropriate. It is anticipated that application of the new rules will be subject to significant administrative interpretation, and we will need to closely monitor how MOFCOM and other ministries apply the rules to ensure its domestic and offshore activities continue to comply with PRC law. Given the uncertainties regarding interpretation and application of the new rules, we may need to expend significant time and resources to maintain compliance.
It is uncertain how our business operations or future strategy will be affected by the interpretations and implementation of the SAFE notices and new rules. Our business operations or future strategy could be adversely affected by the SAFE notices and the new rules. For example, we may be subject to more stringent review and approval process with respect to our foreign exchange activities.
The Foreign Currency Exchange Rate between U.S. Dollars and Renminbi Could Adversely Affect Our Financial Condition.
To the extent that we need to convert U.S. Dollars into Renminbi for our operational needs, our financial position and the price of our common stock may be adversely affected should the Renminbi appreciate against the U.S. Dollar at that time. Conversely, if we decide to convert our Renminbi into U.S. Dollars for the operational needs or paying dividends on our common stock, the dollar equivalent of our earnings from our subsidiaries in China would be reduced should the U.S. Dollar appreciate against the Renminbi.
Until 1994, the Renminbi experienced a gradual but significant devaluation against most major currencies, including dollars, and there was a significant devaluation of the Renminbi on January 1, 1994 in connection with the replacement of the dual exchange rate system with a unified managed floating rate foreign exchange system. Since 1994, the value of the Renminbi relative to the U.S. Dollar has remained stable and has appreciated slightly against the U.S. Dollar. Countries, including the United States, have argued that the Renminbi is artificially undervalued due to China's current monetary policies and have pressured China to allow the Renminbi to float freely in world markets. In July 2005, the PRC government changed its policy of pegging the value of the Renminbi to the U.S. Dollar. Under the new policy, the Renminbi is permitted to fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of designated foreign currencies. While the international reaction to the Renminbi revaluation has generally been positive, there remains significant international pressure on the PRC government to adopt an even more flexible currency policy, which could result in further and more significant appreciation of the Renminbi against the dollar.
38
Inflation in the PRC Could Negatively Affect Our Profitability and Growth.
While the PRC economy has experienced rapid growth, such growth has been uneven among various sectors of the economy and in different geographical areas of the country. Rapid economic growth can lead to growth in the money supply and rising inflation. During the past decade, the rate of inflation in China has been as high as approximately 20% and China has experienced deflation as low as approximately minus 2%. If prices for our products and services rise at a rate that is insufficient to compensate for the rise in the costs of supplies such as raw materials, it may have an adverse effect on our profitability. In order to control inflation in the past, the PRC government has imposed controls on bank credits, limits on loans for fixed assets and restrictions on state bank lending. The implementation of such policies may impede economic growth. In October 2004, the People's Bank of China, the PRC's central bank, raised interest rates for the first time in nearly a decade and indicated in a statement that the measure was prompted by inflationary concerns in the Chinese economy. In April 2006, the People's Bank of China raised the interest rate again. Repeated rises in interest rates by the central bank would likely slow economic activity in China which could, in turn, materially increase our costs and also reduce demand for our products and services.
Failure to Comply with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act Could Subject Us to Penalties and Other Adverse Consequences.
As our ultimate holding company is a Delaware corporation, we are subject to the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which generally prohibits United States companies from engaging in bribery or other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Foreign companies, including some that may compete with us, are not subject to these prohibitions. Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices may occur from time-to-time in the PRC. We can make no assurance, however, that our employees or other agents will not engage in such conduct for which we might be held responsible. If our employees or other agents are found to have engaged in such practices, we could suffer severe penalties and other consequences that may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If We Make Equity Compensation Grants to Persons Who Are PRC Citizens, They May Be Required to Register with the State Administration of Foreign Exchange of the PRC, or SAFE. We May Also Face Regulatory Uncertainties that Could Restrict Our Ability to Adopt an Equity Compensation Plan for Our Directors and Employees and other Parties Under PRC Law.
On April 6, 2007, SAFE issued the "Operating Procedures for Administration of Domestic Individuals Participating in the Employee Stock Ownership Plan or Stock Option Plan of An Overseas Listed Company, also know as "Circular 78." It is not clear whether Circular 78 covers all forms of equity compensation plans or only those which provide for the granting of stock options. For any plans which are so covered and are adopted by a non-PRC listed company after April 6, 2007, Circular 78 requires all participants who are PRC citizens to register with and obtain approvals from SAFE prior to their participation in the plan. In addition, Circular 78 also requires PRC citizens to register with SAFE and make the necessary applications and filings if they participated in an overseas listed company's covered equity compensation plan prior to April 6, 2007. We intend to adopt an equity compensation plan in the future and make option grants to our officers and directors, most of who are PRC citizens. Circular 78 may require our officers and directors who receive option grants and are PRC citizens to register with SAFE. We believe that the registration and approval requirements contemplated in Circular 78 will be burdensome and time consuming. If it is determined that any of our equity compensation plans are subject to Circular 78, failure to comply with such provisions may subject us and participants of our equity incentive plan who are PRC citizens to fines and legal sanctions and prevent us from being able to grant equity compensation to our PRC employees. In that case, our ability to compensate our employees and directors through equity compensation would be hindered and our business operations may be adversely affected.
Any Recurrence of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), Avian Flu, or Another Widespread Public Health Problem, in the PRC Could Adversely Affect Our Operations.
A renewed outbreak of SARS, Avian Flu or another widespread public health problem in China, where all of our manufacturing facilities are located and where the substantial portion of our sales occur, could have a negative effect on our operations. Our business is dependent upon its ability to continue to manufacture products. Such an outbreak could have an impact on our operations as a result of:
39
· | quarantines or closures of some of our manufacturing facilities, which would severely disrupt our operations; |
· | the sickness or death of our key officers and employees; and |
· | a general slowdown in the Chinese economy. |
Any of the foregoing events or other unforeseen consequences of public health problems could adversely affect our operations.
A Downturn in the Economy of the PRC May Slow Our Growth and Profitability.
The growth of the Chinese economy has been uneven across geographic regions and economic sectors. There can be no assurance that growth of the Chinese economy will be steady or that any downturn will not have a negative effect on our business, especially if it results in either a decreased use of our products or in pressure on us to lower our prices.
Because Our Business is Located in the PRC, We May Have Difficulty Establishing Adequate Management, Legal and Financial Controls, Which We are Required to Do in Order to Comply with U.S. Securities Laws.
PRC companies have historically not adopted a Western style of management and financial reporting concepts and practices, which includes strong corporate governance, internal controls and, computer, financial and other control systems. Most of our middle and top management staff are not educated and trained in the Western system, and we may difficulty hiring new employees in the PRC with such training. In addition, we may have difficulty in hiring and retaining a sufficient number of qualified employees to work in the PRC. As a result of these factors, we may experience difficulty in establishing management, legal and financial controls, collecting financial data and preparing financial statements, books of account and corporate records and instituting business practices that meet Western standards. Therefore, we may, in turn, experience difficulties in implementing and maintaining adequate internal controls as required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. This may result in significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal controls which could impact the reliability of its financial statements and prevent us from complying with SEC rules and regulations and the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Any such deficiencies, weaknesses or lack of compliance could have a materially adverse effect on our business.
Investors May Experience Difficulties in Effecting Service of Legal Process, Enforcing Foreign Judgments or Bringing Original Actions in China based upon U.S. Laws, Including the Federal Securities Laws or Other Foreign Laws Against Us or Our Management.
Most of our current operations, including the manufacturing and distribution of our products, are conducted in China. Moreover, all but one of our directors and officers are nationals and residents of China or Hong Kong. All or substantially all of the assets of these persons are located outside the United States and in the PRC. As a result, it may not be possible to effect service of process within the United States or elsewhere outside China upon these persons. In addition, uncertainty exists as to whether the courts of China would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained against us or such officers and/or directors predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof, or be competent to hear original actions brought in China against us or such persons predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR CAPITAL STRUCTURE
If We Are Found to Be in Violation of Current or Future PRC Laws, Rules or Regulations Regarding the Legality of Foreign Investment in the PRC with Respect to Our Ownership Structure, We Could Be Subject to Severe Penalties.
We conduct business operations solely in the PRC through our 80%-owned subsidiary, Yongxin Medical, and its subsidiaries. We are a Delaware corporation, however, most of our direct and indirect subsidiaries are companies organized under the laws of the PRC. We are considered a foreign person or foreign invested enterprise under PRC law. As a result, we are subject to PRC law limitations on foreign ownership of Chinese companies. There are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of PRC laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, the laws and regulations governing our pharmaceutical distribution and retail drugstore businesses.
40
Accordingly, it is possible that the relevant PRC authorities could, at any time, assert that any portion of our existing or future ownership structure and businesses violate existing or future PRC laws, regulations or policies. It is also possible that the new laws or regulations governing our business operations in the PRC that have been adopted or may be adopted in the future will prohibit or restrict foreign investment in, or other aspects of, any of our PRC subsidiaries' and our current or proposed businesses and operations. The effectiveness of newly enacted laws, regulations or amendments may be delayed, resulting in detrimental reliance by foreign investors. New laws and regulations that affect existing and proposed future businesses may also be applied retroactively.
The PRC government has broad discretion in dealing with violations of laws and regulations, including:
· | levying fines; |
· | confiscating our income; |
· | revoking business and other licenses; |
· | requiring us to discontinue any portion or all of our business; |
· | requiring us to restructure our ownership structure or operations; and |
· | requiring actions necessary for compliance. |
In particular, licenses and permits issued or granted to us by relevant governmental bodies may be revoked at a later time by higher regulatory bodies. We cannot predict the effect of the interpretation of existing or new PRC laws or regulations on our businesses. We cannot assure you that our current ownership and operating structure would not be found in violation of any current or future PRC laws or regulations. As a result, we may be subject to sanctions, including fines, and could be required to restructure our operations or cease to provide certain services. Any of these or similar actions could significantly disrupt our business operations or restrict us from conducting a substantial portion of our business operations, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We May Be Adversely Affected by Complexity, Uncertainties and Changes in PRC Regulation of Pharmaceutical Businesses and Drugstore Companies, Including Limitations on Our Ability to Own Key Assets.
The PRC government regulates the pharmaceutical and drugstore industries including foreign ownership of, and the licensing and permit requirements pertaining to, companies operating in these industries. These laws and regulations are relatively new and evolving, and their interpretation and enforcement involve significant uncertainty. As a result, in certain circumstances it may be difficult to determine what actions or omissions may be deemed to be a violation of applicable laws and regulations. Issues, risks and uncertainties relating to PRC government regulation of the pharmaceutical industry include those relating evolving licensing practices. Permits, licenses or operations at our company may be subject to challenge, which may disrupt our business, or subject us to sanctions, requirements to increase capital or other conditions or enforcement, or compromise enforceability of related contractual arrangements, or have other harmful effects on us. Although we believe we comply with current PRC regulations, we cannot assure you that our ownership and operating structure comply with PRC licensing, registration or other regulatory requirements, with existing policies or with requirements or policies that may be adopted in the future. If the PRC government determines that we do not comply with applicable law, it could take other regulatory or enforcement actions against us that could be harmful to our business.
There is Currently a Limited Trading Market for Our Common Stock, and there is No Assurance of a More Established Public Trading Market, Which Would Adversely Affect the Ability of Our Investors to Sell Their Securities in the Public Market.
While, our common stock is currently listed on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board ("OTCBB"), there is currently a very limited trading market for our common stock. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority has enacted changes that limit quotations on the OTCBB to securities of issuers that are current in their reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The effect on the OTCBB of these rule changes and other
41
proposed changes cannot be determined at this time. The OTCBB is an inter-dealer, over-the-counter market that provides significantly less liquidity than the NASDAQ Global Market (the "NASDAQ Global Market"). Quotes for stocks included on the OTCBB are not listed in the financial sections of newspapers as are those for the NASDAQ Global Market. Therefore, prices for securities traded solely on the OTCBB may be difficult to obtain and holders of common stock may be unable to resell their securities at or near their original offering price or at any price.
Market prices for our common stock after the Share Exchange will be influenced by a number of factors, including:
· | Our ability to obtain additional financing and, if available, the terms and conditions of the financing; |
· | Our financial position and results of operations; |
· | Concern as to, or other evidence of, the reliability and safety of our products and services or our competitors' products and services; |
· | Announcements of innovations or new products or services by us or our competitors; |
· | U.S. federal and state governmental regulatory actions and the impact of such requirements on our business; |
· | Chinese governmental regulatory actions and the impact of such requirements on our business; |
· | The development of litigation against us; |
· | Period-to-period fluctuations in our operating results; |
· | Changes in estimates of our performance by any securities analysts; |
· | The issuance of new equity securities pursuant to a future offering or acquisition; |
· | Changes in interest rates and/or foreign currency exchange rates; |
· | Competitive developments, including announcements by competitors of new products or services or significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments; |
· | Investor perceptions of us; and |
· | General economic and other national and international conditions. |
Shares Eligible for Future Sale May Adversely Affect the Market Price of Our Common Stock, as the Future Sale of a Substantial Amount of Stock in the Public Marketplace Could Reduce the Price of Our Common Stock.
We may file a registration statement to register the shares issued to the Yongxin Medical shareholders pursuant to the Share Exchange. All of the shares included in an effective registration statement as described above may be freely sold and transferred except if subject to a lock up agreement.
The shareholders who received shares of our common stock in the Share Exchange and/or their designees may be eligible to sell all or some of our shares of common stock by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act ("Rule 144"), subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to Rule 144, a non-affiliate stockholder (or stockholders whose shares are aggregated) who has satisfied a six-month holding period, and provided that there is current public information available, may sell all of its securities. Rule 144 also permits the sale of securities, without any limitations, by a non-affiliate that has satisfied a one-year holding period. Any substantial sale of common stock pursuant to any resale prospectus or Rule 144 may have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock by creating an excessive supply.
Following the Share Exchange, the Former Principal Shareholders of Yongxin Medical Have Significant Influence Over Us.
42
The former shareholders of Yongxin Medical and their designees beneficially own or control a majority of our outstanding shares as of May [__], 2008. If these stockholders were to act as a group, they would have a controlling influence in determining the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including mergers, consolidations and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, election of directors, and other significant corporate actions. Such shareholders may also have the power to prevent or cause a change in control. In addition, without the consent of the former Yongxin Medical shareholders, we could be prevented from entering into transactions that could be beneficial to us. The interests of the former Yongxin Medical shareholders may differ from the interests of our other stockholders.
If We Fail to Maintain Effective Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting, the Price of Our Common Stock May Be Adversely Affected.
We are required to establish and maintain appropriate internal controls over financial reporting. Failure to establish those controls, or any failure of those controls once established, could adversely impact our public disclosures regarding our business, financial condition or results of operations. Any failure of these controls could also prevent us from maintaining accurate accounting records and discovering accounting errors and financial frauds. Rules adopted by the SEC pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 require annual assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, and attestation of this assessment by our independent registered public accountants. The SEC extended the compliance dates for non-accelerated filers, as defined by the SEC. Accordingly, we believe that the annual assessment of our internal controls requirement will first apply to our annual report for the 2007 fiscal year and the attestation requirement of management's assessment by our independent registered public accountants will first apply to our annual report for the 2008 fiscal year. The standards that must be met for management to assess the internal control over financial reporting as effective are new and complex, and require significant documentation, testing and possible remediation to meet the detailed standards. We may encounter problems or delays in completing activities necessary to make an assessment of our internal control over financial reporting. In addition, the attestation process by our independent registered public accountants is new and we may encounter problems or delays in completing the implementation of any requested improvements and receiving an attestation of our assessment by our independent registered public accountants. If we cannot assess our internal control over financial reporting as effective, or our independent registered public accountants are unable to provide an unqualified attestation report on such assessment, investor confidence and share value may be negatively impacted.
In addition, management's assessment of internal controls over financial reporting may identify weaknesses and conditions that need to be addressed in our internal controls over financial reporting or other matters that may raise concerns for investors. Any actual or perceived weaknesses and conditions that need to be addressed in our internal control over financial reporting, disclosure of management's assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting, or disclosure of our public accounting firm's attestation to or report on management's assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting may have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock.
The Foreign Currency Exchange Rate between U.S. Dollars and Renminbi Could Adversely Affect Our Financial Condition.
To the extent that we need to convert U.S. Dollars into Renminbi for our operational needs, our financial position and the price of our common stock may be adversely affected should the Renminbi appreciate against the U.S. Dollar at that time. Conversely, if we decide to convert our Renminbi into U.S. Dollars for our operational needs or paying dividends on our common stock, the U.S. Dollar equivalent of our earnings from our subsidiaries in China would be reduced should the U.S. Dollar appreciate against the Renminbi.
Until 1994, the Renminbi experienced a gradual but significant devaluation against most major currencies, including dollars, and there was a significant devaluation of the Renminbi on January 1, 1994 in connection with the replacement of the dual exchange rate system with a unified managed floating rate foreign exchange system. Since 1994, the value of the Renminbi relative to the U.S. Dollar has remained stable and has appreciated slightly against the U.S. Dollar. Countries, including the United States, have argued that the Renminbi is artificially undervalued due to China's current monetary policies and have pressured China to allow the Renminbi to float freely in world markets. In July 2005, the PRC government changed its policy of pegging the value of the Renminbi to the dollar. Under the new policy the Renminbi is permitted to fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of designated foreign currencies. While the international reaction to the Renminbi revaluation has generally been positive, there remains significant international pressure on the PRC government to adopt an even more flexible currency policy, which could result in further and more significant appreciation of the Renminbi against the dollar.

We May Not Be Able to Achieve the Benefits We Expect to Result from the Share Exchange.
On April 12, 2008, we entered into the Second Amendment to the Share Exchange Agreement with Yongxin Medical, effective November 16, 2007, and all of the shareholders of Yongxin Medical, pursuant to which we agreed to acquire 80% of the issued and outstanding equity interest of Yongxin Medical in exchange for shares of our common stock. On November 16, 2007, the Share Exchange closed, Yongxin Medical became our 80%-owned subsidiary and we assumed the business operations Yongxin Medical. We also have a new Board of Directors and management consisting of persons from Yongxin Medical and changed our corporate name from "Digital Learning Management Corporation" to "Nutradyne Group, Inc.," which we subsequently changed to China Yongxin Pharmaceuticals Inc. in May 2008.
We may not realize the benefits that we hoped to receive as a result of the Share Exchange, which include:
· | access to the capital markets of the United States; |
· | the increased market liquidity expected to result from exchanging stock in a private company for securities of a public company; |
· | the ability to use registered securities to make acquisitions of assets or businesses; |
· | increased visibility in the financial community; |
· | enhanced access to the capital markets; |
· | improved transparency of operations; and |
· | perceived credibility and enhanced corporate image of being a publicly traded company. |
There can be no assurance that any of the anticipated benefits of the Share Exchange will be realized in respect to our new business operations. In addition, the attention and effort devoted to achieving the benefits of the Share Exchange and attending to the obligations of being a public company, such as reporting requirements and securities regulations, could significantly divert management's attention from other important issues, which could materially and adversely affect our operating results or stock price in the future.
Compliance with Changing Regulation of Corporate Governance and Public Disclosure Will Result in Additional Expenses.
Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related SEC regulations, have created uncertainty for public companies and significantly increased the costs and risks associated with accessing the public markets and public reporting. Our management team will need to invest significant management time and financial resources to comply with both existing and evolving standards for public companies, which will lead to increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue generating activities to compliance activities.
Our Common Stock is Considered a "Penny Stock," and Thereby is Subject to Additional Sale and Trading Regulations that May Make it More Difficult to Sell.
Our common stock is currently considered to be a "penny stock" because it does not qualify for one of the exemptions from the definition of "penny stock" under Section 3a51-1 of the Securities Exchange Act for 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Our common stock is considered a "penny stock" because it meets one or more of the following conditions (i) the stock trades at a price less than $5.00 per share; (ii) it is NOT traded on a "recognized" national exchange; (iii) it is NOT quoted on the NASDAQ Capital Market, or even if so, has a price less than $5.00 per share; or (iv) is issued by a company that has been in business less than three years with net tangible assets less than $5 million.
44
The principal result or effect of being designated a "penny stock" is that securities broker-dealers participating in sales of our common stock will be subject to the "penny stock" regulations set forth in Rules 15-2 through 15g-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act. For example, Rule 15g-2 requires broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document at least two business days before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor's account. Moreover, Rule 15g-9 requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker-dealer to (i) obtain from the investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (ii) reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (iii) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker-dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (iv) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor's financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult and time consuming for holders of our common stock to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them in the market or otherwise.
We Do Not Foresee Paying Cash Dividends in the Foreseeable Future and, as a Result, Our Investors' Sole Source of Gain, if any, Will Depend on Capital Appreciation, if any.
We do not plan to declare or pay any cash dividends on our shares of common stock in the foreseeable future and currently intend to retain any future earnings for funding growth. As a result, investors should not rely on an investment in our securities if they require the investment to produce dividend income. Capital appreciation, if any, of our shares may be investors' sole source of gain for the foreseeable future. Moreover, investors may not be able to resell their shares of our common stock at or above the price they paid for them.
