(Unaudited)
NOTE-3 | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes.
In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of GFRP and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation.
· | Equity method of accounting |
Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810 “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”), consolidation of a majority-owned subsidiary is precluded where control does not rest with the majority owner. From May 1, 2007, GFRP’s subsidiary Medicine ceased business and leased out its business license. Accordingly, GFRP deconsolidated Medicine and accounted Medicine for under the equity method of accounting.
Generally accepted accounting principles require that the investment in the investee be reported using the equity method under the provision of ASC Topic 323 “Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures” (“ASC 323”) when an investor corporation can exercise significant influence over the operations and financial policies of an investee corporation. When the equity method of accounting is used, the investor initially records the investment in the stock of an investee at cost. The investment account is then adjusted to recognize the investor’s share of the income or losses of the investee when it is earned by the investee. Such amounts are included when determining the net income of the investor in the period they are reported by the investee.
As a result of deconsolidation under ASC 810 and the application of the equity method under ASC 323, GFRP had a negative basis in its investment in Medicine, the Equity Investee, because the subsidiary generated significant losses and intercompany liabilities in excess of its asset balances. This negative investment, “Loss in excess of investment in an unconsolidated affiliate” is reflected as a single amount on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as approximately $656,844 as of June 30, 2010.
Since Medicine’s results are no longer consolidated and GFRP believes that it is not obligated to fund future operating losses at Medicine, any adjustments reflected in Medicine’s financial statements subsequent to May 1, 2007 are not expected to affect the results of operations of GFRP.
· | Cash and cash equivalents |
Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments.
· | Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts |
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Management reviews the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts on an ongoing basis, using historical collection trends and aging of receivables. Management also periodically evaluates individual customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions to make adjustments in the allowance when it is considered necessary. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers. For the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, no allowance for doubtful accounts was provided during the periods.

(Unaudited)
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value (net realizable value), cost being determined on a weighted average method. Costs include material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs. The Company quarterly reviews historical sales activity to determine excess, slow moving items and potentially obsolete items and also evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand. The Company provides inventory allowances based on excess and obsolete inventories determined principally by customer demand. For the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, no inventory allowance was provided for the periods.
· | Property, plant and equipment |
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated residual values:
| | Depreciable life | | Residual value |
Buildings | | 20 – 40 years | | 5% |
Plant and equipment | | 5 – 16 years | | 5% |
Motor vehicles | | 8 –12 years | | 5% |
Furniture, fixture and equipment | | 5 – 8 years | | 5% |
Expenditure for repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred. When assets have retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.
Depreciation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $179,057 and $187,510 respectively, of which $134,794 and $142,255 were included in cost of revenue.
Depreciation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 were $367,410 and $358,908 respectively, of which $274,857 and $267,698 were include in cost of revenue.
· | Operating lease prepaid |
All lands in the PRC are owned by the PRC government. The government in the PRC, according to the relevant PRC law, may grant the right to use the land for a specified period of time. Thus, all of the Company’s lands in the PRC are considered operating lease prepaid. Operating lease prepaid is amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term of 50 years.
The lease expense on prepaid operating lease for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 was $3,627 and $3,629, respectively. As of June 30, 2010, the estimated annual amortization of the prepaid operating lease for the next five years and thereafter is as follows:

· | Impairment of long-lived assets |
In accordance with the provisions of the provision of ASC Topic 360-10-5, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, all long-lived assets such as property, plant and equipment held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of assets to estimated discounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets. There has been no impairment as of June 30, 2010.
In accordance with the ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, transfer of title has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured.
(a) | Medical service revenue |
Pursuant to the agreements entered into between the Company and Tang Du Hospital (“the Hospital”) dated February 2, 2006, the Company and the Hospital would jointly operate the medical center in the provision of diagnostic imaging services to the patients. In return, the Company and the Hospital would share net revenues from services rendered, on a monthly basis, when earned, at their net realizable amounts from patients for services rendered at contractually established billing rates, after deducting the total operating cost of the centers. The Company recognizes net revenues based on the total amount received from the patients during the month, less the monthly operating costs incurred at the center.
The Company records the revenue, net of business tax, from the customers through the Hospital, on a net basis in compliance with EITF 99-19, “Reporting Revenues Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent.”
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale and trading of pharmaceutical products upon delivery to the customers, whereas the title and risk of loss are fully transferred to the customers. The Company records its revenues, net of value added taxes (“VAT”) under the PRC tax law which is levied on the majority of the products at the rate of 17% on the invoiced value of sales. The Company experienced no product returns and has recorded no reserve for sales returns for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.
(c) | Technical service income |
The Company provides technical service based upon the customer’s specifications in a term of 3 years on a monthly fixed-rate basis. The Company recognizes its monthly service fee over the service period.
Interest income is recognized on a time apportionment basis, taking into account the principal amounts outstanding and the interest rates applicable.

The provision for income taxes is determined in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company did not have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions. As of June 30, 2010, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.
The Company conducts major businesses in the PRC and is subject to tax in this jurisdiction. As a result of its business activities, the Company files tax returns that are subject to examination by the foreign tax authority. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company filed the 2009 PRC tax return, which such return was accepted as finalby the tax authority.
The Company calculates net income per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic income per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of common stocks outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed similar to basic income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common stocks that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional common stocks were dilutive.
ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity, consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. This comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.
· | Foreign currencies translation |
Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The reporting currency of the Company is United States Dollar ("US$"). The Company's subsidiaries in the PRC maintain their books and records in their local currency, Renminbi Yuan ("RMB"), which is functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which these entities operate.
In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “Translation of Financial Statement”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the year. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity.
Translation of amounts from RMB into US$1 has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective period:
| | June 30, 2010 | | | June 30, 2009 | |
Period-end RMB:US$1 exchange rate | | | 6.8086 | | | | 6.8319 | |
Period-average RMB:US$1 exchange rate | | | 6.8348 | | | | 6.8328 | |
Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organization structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in financial statements. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company operates in two reportable segments: Medical Business and Extraction Business in PRC.
ASC Topic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820-10”) establishes a new framework for measuring fair value and expands related disclosures. Broadly, ASC 820-10 framework requires fair value to be determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820-10 establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

For financial assets and liabilities, fair value is the price the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date. In the absence of active markets for the identical assets or liabilities, such measurements involve developing assumptions based on market observable data and, in the absence of such data, internal information that is consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction that occurs at the measurement date.
· | Fair value of financial instruments |
The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, prepayments and other current assets, trade accounts payable, amount due to a related party, income tax payable, other payables and accrued liabilities. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values.
· | Recent accounting pronouncements |
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.
In September 2009, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued certain amendments as codified in ASC Topic 605-25, “Revenue Recognition; Multiple-Element Arrangements.” These amendments provide clarification on whether multiple deliverables exist, how the arrangement should be separated, and the consideration allocated. An entity is required to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of deliverables in the absence of vendor-specific objective evidence or third-party evidence of selling price. These amendments also eliminate the use of the residual method and require an entity to allocate revenue using the relative selling price method. The amendments significantly expand the disclosure requirements for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. These provisions are to be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with earlier application permitted. The Company will adopt the provisions of these amendments in its fiscal year 2011 and is currently evaluating the impact of these amendments to its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-11, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) — Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives.” ASU 2010-11 clarifies that the only form of an embedded credit derivative that is exempt from embedded derivative bifurcation requirements are those that relate to the subordination of one financial instrument to another. As a result, entities that have contracts containing an embedded credit derivative feature in a form other than such subordination may need to separately account for the embedded credit derivative feature. The provisions of ASU 2010-11 will be effective on July 1, 2010 and are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In May 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-19, Foreign Currency (Topic 830): Foreign Currency Issues: Multiple Foreign Currency Exchange Rates. The amendments in ASU 2010-19 are effective as of the announcement date of March 18, 2010. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-19 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In July 2010, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that will require additional disclosures about the credit quality of loans, lease receivables and other long-term receivables and the related allowance for credit losses. Certain additional disclosures in this new accounting guidance will be effective for the Company on December 31, 2010 with certain other additional disclosures that will be effective on March 31, 2011. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new accounting guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company has a 75% equity interest in Xi’an Bao Sai Medicine Co., Ltd (“Medicine”), through Bai Sai, which is registered as a limited liability company in the PRC.

(Unaudited)
(c) Credit risk
Financial instruments that are potentially subject to credit risk consist principally of trade accounts receivables. The Company believes the concentration of credit risk in its trade receivables is substantially mitigated by its ongoing credit evaluation process and relatively short collection terms. The Company does not generally require collateral from customers. The Company evaluates the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.
(d) Exchange rate risk
The reporting currency of the Company is US$, to date the majority of the revenues and costs are denominated in RMB and a significant portion of the assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB. As a result, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk as its revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between US$ and RMB. If RMB depreciates against US$, the value of RMB revenues and assets as expressed in US$ financial statements will decline. The Company does not hold any derivative or other financial instruments that expose to substantial market risk.
(e) Economic and political risks
The Company's operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.
The Company's operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company's results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation.

Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: 1) our ability to successfully develop and deliver our services on a timely basis and in the prescribed condition; 2) our ability to compete effectively with other companies in the same industry; 3) our ability to raise sufficient capital in order to effectuate our business plan; and 4) our ability to retain our key executives.
Results of Operations
Through the second quarter of 2010, we continued to realize our revenues from the business operations of two subsidiaries: New Century and Bao Sai.
New Century owns radiology and oncology equipment and provides it to Tang Du Hospital’s Gamma Knife Therapeutic Center (the “Center”) in Shaan Xi province, which is affiliated with the Fourth Military Medical University. New Century currently owns three different devices used for radiological imaging for the brain and body and cancer treatment. New Century receives a percentage of profits from the Center. We recognize net revenues based on the total amount received from the patients during the month, less the monthly operating costs incurred at the Center. The service revenues were recorded when services are received by the customers and realized the amounts net of provisions for discounts, allowance and taxes which are recognized at the time of services performed.
Bao Sai is a high-tech company in China chartered and authorized by the Chinese government for involvement in researching and inventing, manufacturing and sales of biological separation medium products, which refers to the separation and purification of biological products and natural medicines. Such technology has been widely used in the producing of antibiotic products, Genetic Recombinant Medicine, the Gene Chip, bacteria production, diagnoses reagent, and biochemical products.
The Company believes that New Century has strong prospects of increasing our market share and revenues because our diagnostic imaging and radiation oncology treatments and equipment are all covered by the Chinese national medical insurance system. Bao Sai is focused on strengthening its market share and improving its business performance. We also believe that Bao Sai will increase our market share and revenue later in 2010.
Revenues
The revenue from our operation of the Center increased from $973,621 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 to $1,143,957 for the same period of 2010, an increase of 17.50%; and increased from $ 1,527,877 during the six months ended June 30, 2009 to $ 1,923,625 during the six months ended June 30, 2010 an increase of 25.90%. In the second quarter of 2010, the cancer treatment business accounted for $1,143,957 (96.44%) of our revenue. The product sales generated $42,272 of revenue in the second quarter of 2010 as compared to $9,379 in the same period of 2009. Our overall revenues for the second quarter of 2010 increased from $983,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 to $1,186,229 for the same period of 2010, an increase of 20.67%. Likewise, our overall revenue increased from $1,547,042 during the six months ended June 30, 2009 to $1,976,265 during the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was attributed primarily to the increased service revenue from Center and the increased product sales from Bao Sai.
Expenses
Operating expenses for the second quarter of 2010 were $140,786 as compared to $218,326 for the same period of 2009, a decrease of $77,540. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, our operating expenses decreased from $486,123 to $362,342 as compared to the same period of 2009. This decrease was attributable to the reduction of professional and consultancy expenses during the six months ended June 30, 2010compared to the same period of 2009.
Net Income
Net income attributable to GFR Pharmaceuticals, Inc. during the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 was $420,560 and $522,602 respectively, compared to $862,541 and $1,127,952 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. This increase was primarily due to our increased revenue from New Century and a slight decrease of our operating expenses for the second quarter of 2010.
We hope to be profitable in 2010 through the implementation of our marketing strategies. However, we cannot be certain that we will be able to successfully implement our marketing strategies and there can be no assurance for the achievement of any revenue growth or, therefore, that we will be profitable.
Impact of Inflation
We believe that inflation has had a negligible effect on operations during this period. We believe that we can offset inflationary increases in the cost of sales by increasing sales and improving operating efficiencies.
Our business operates entirely in Chinese Renminbi, but we report our results `in our SEC filings in U.S. Dollars. The conversion of our accounts from RMB to Dollars results in translation adjustments. While our net income is added to the retained earnings on our balance sheet; the translation adjustments are added to a line item on our balance sheet labeled “other comprehensive income,” since it is more reflective of changes in the relative values of U.S. and Chinese currencies than of the success of our business.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity Analysis
| | June 30, 2010 | | | December 31, 2009 | |
Working Capital | | $ | (941,751 | ) | | $ | (1,760,129 | ) |
Stockholders’ Equity | | $ | 5,513,264 | | | $ | 4,322,122 | |
Total Liabilities | | $ | 3,769,569 | | | $ | 3,436,619 | |
Our working capital deficit was decreased from $1,760,129 as of December 31, 2009 to $941,751 as of at June 30, 2010. The primary reason for the decrease in working capital deficit in 2010 by $818,378 was attributable to the increase in accounts receivable by $764,876: an increase of cash and cash equivalents by $343,468; which was partly offset by an increase of accounts payable by $481,768 and a decrease of amounts due to shareholders by $160,789 for the six months period ended June 30, 2010.
Stockholders’ equity increased from $4,322,122 as of December 31, 2009 to $5,513,264 as of June 30, 2010, an increase of $1,191,142 or 27.6%. Total liabilities increased from $3,436,619 as of December 31, 2009 to $3,769,569 as of June 30, 2010, an increase of $332,950 or 9.7%. The increase of total liabilities was mainly due to the increase of other payables and accrued liabilities from $428,553 as of December 31, 2009 to $910,321 as of June 30, 2010, an increase of $481,768 or 112.4%. In addition, our principal shareholder, Mr. Guo Li’an made a loan to fund our operations. As of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the balance of the loan was $1,800,085 and $1,960,874, respectively, which was unsecured, interest-free and repayable on demand.
As of June 30, 2010, cash and cash equivalents increased to $398,954 from $55,486 as of December 31, 2009, an increase of $343,468 or 619.0%. The increase of cash and cash equivalents was mainly due to the cash flows provided from operating activities by $576,258; and provided from financing activities by $40,505; offset by the outflow in vesting activities of $277,992 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Zhao Yan Ding, and Principal Financial Officer, Zhong Ya Li, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. During the most recent quarter ended June 30, 2010, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
