![](https://capedge.com/proxy/10-Q/0001213900-14-009245/image_001.jpg)
NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONSOLIDATION
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of TPI and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP applicable to interim financial information and the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods have been included.
These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2014, included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission on December 9, 2014, as not all disclosures required by US GAAP for annual financial statements are presented. The interim consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of computations as the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2014.
In preparing the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, we evaluated the period from September 30, 2014 through the date the financial statements were issued for material subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure. No such events were identified for this period.
The Company uses the United States dollar (“U.S. Dollar” or “US$” or “$”) for financial reporting purposes. The subsidiaries within the Company maintain their books and records in their respective functional currency, being the primary currency of the economic environment in which their operations are conducted. Assets and liabilities of a subsidiary with functional currency other than U.S. Dollar are translated into U.S. Dollars using the applicable exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Items on the statements of comprehensive income and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the reporting period. Equity accounts are translated at historical rates. Adjustments resulting from the translation of the Company’s financial statements are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

In July 2006, the FASB issued ASC 740 that clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum probability threshold that a tax position must meet before a financial statement benefit is recognized. The minimum threshold is defined as a tax position that is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company did not recognize any benefits in the financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 and for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

NOTE 8 – RISK FACTORS
The Company's operations are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC as well as by the general state of the PRC’s economy. Specifically, the Company's business may be negatively influenced by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.
NOTE 9 – RISK OF CONCENTRATIONS AND CREDIT RISK
Concentrations
For the quarters ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, no single customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s sales. In terms of individual product sales, our major product Gingko Mihuan Oral Liquid (GMOL) represented 58% or $5.6 million (23% increase year over year) of total sales for the three months ended September 30, 2014 of compared with 35% or $5.1 million of total sales for the three months ended September 30, 2013.
Credit Risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash on deposit with financial institutions. Management believes that the financial institutions that hold the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are financially sound and minimal credit risk exists with respect to these investments.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations relates to the operations and financial condition reported in the financial statements of Tianyin Pharmaceutical Co., Inc. for the periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 and should be read in conjunction with such financial statements and related notes included in this report and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2014.
The information set forth below includes forward-looking statements. Certain factors that could cause results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements are set forth below. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update publicly these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Overview
We are engaged in the development, manufacturing, marketing and sale of patented biopharmaceutical, modernized traditional Chinese medicines (mTCM), branded generics and other pharmaceuticals in China. We currently manufacture and market a portfolio of 58 products, 24 of which are listed in the National Medical Reimbursement program, including the patent protected Ginkgo Mihuan Oral Liquid (GMOL) and a series of drug candidates that target various high incidence healthcare conditions in China. Established in 1994, Chengdu Tianyin Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd (“Chengdu Tianyin”) is a pharmaceutical company that manufactures and sells mTCMs and branded generics. The current management acquired 100% of the equity interest of Chengdu Tianyin in 2003. On October 30, 2007, Grandway Groups Holdings Ltd. (“Grandway”) completed the acquisition of the 100% of the equity interest and now owns 100% of the equity interest of Chengdu Tianyin.
In June 2009, Chengdu Tianyin invested approximately $0.7 million (RMB 5 million) to establish a wholly-owned trading subsidiary, Chengdu Tianyin Medicine Trading Co., Ltd (“TMT”) for the sale and distribution of pharmaceutical products to optimize our business model through our distribution channels.
On August 21, 2009, Chengdu Tianyin, Sichuan Mingxin Pharmaceutical (“Sichuan Mingxin”) and an individual investor established Sichuan Jiangchuan Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd (“JCM”), whose major business is to produce macrolide antibiotic active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). Total registered capital of JCM is approximately $3.2 million (equivalent of RMB 20 million), of which Chengdu Tianyin accounts for 87%, after increasing its stake in JCM from 77% at the inception of JCM by purchasing another 10% ownership from Sichuan Mingxin in the fiscal year 2012. JCM is designed as a broader strategy to establish the Company’s presence in the API industry in China. By September 30, 2014, Chengdu Tianyin had purchased the remaining 13% of the ownership of JCM from the individual investor for approximately $2.4 million (RMB 15 million). Consequently, JCM became a wholly owned subsidiary of Chengdu Tianyin.
On August 29, 2012, Chengdu Tianyin entered into a Share Transfer Agreement with the shareholders of Sichuan Hengshuo Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd (“Sichuan Hengshuo” or “HSP”), a pharmaceutical distribution company, to acquire 100% ownership of HSP for approximately $0.2 million (RMB 1.3 million). The purpose of the acquisition was to facilitate the relocation of Company’s manufacturing facility to Qionglai since HSP was registered at Qionglai. The share transfer was closed on November 30, 2012, pursuant to which Chengdu Tianyin now owns 100% of HSP and Guoqing Jiang, Chairman and CEO of Chengdu Tianyin has become the legal representative of HSP.
Competitive Environment
The market for pharmaceutical products is highly competitive. Our operations may be affected by technological advances by competitors, industry consolidation, patents granted to competitors, competitive combination products, new products offered by our competitors, as well as new information provided by other marketed products and/or other post-market studies.
Development and Growth Strategy
Research and Development (R&D)
We have a proven cooperative partnership model for the R&D which is cost effective, efficient, and value adding for our organic growth. We focused on innovative products as well as modifications and improvements of existing marketed products with substantial market potential. Our R&D partners include a number of most prestigious academic institutions in China, including China Pharmaceutical University, Sichuan University-affiliated West China Center of Medical Sciences, and Shaanxi University of Chinese Medicines. The partnership-based R&D strategy supports TPI to commercialize, produce, and broaden our product pipeline and to market those products through our sales and marketing infrastructure. In July 2014, the TPI’s subsidiary, Chengdu Tianyin, entered into a research and development agreement with a pharmaceutical research company to expand formulation varieties from Gingko Mihuan Oral Liquid (GMOL) to Capsule formulation. The project is expected to be completed before August 2017.
R&D for additional indications of flagship product Gingko Mihuan (GMOL)
Our flagship product GMOL (CFDA certification number: H20013079; patent number: 20061007800225) contributes a significant share to our total quarterly revenue. Our R&D partnership research has been recently explored for further development of capsulation and tablets formulations for GMOL. The in-house research group at TPI together with the partnership research institutes will collaborate in developing, testing and filing for the CFDA approval application. Due to the increased stringency by CFDA approval, the time span and costs for the R&D of new products have increased significantly since twenty years ago when Chengdu Tianyin was founded.
Jiangchuan Macrolide Facility (JCM)
In January 2012, the JCM facility for R&D, manufacturing and sale of macrolide APIs received its Good Manufacturing Practice (“GMP”) certification designated as "CHUAN M0799," which is valid until December 31, 2015. As a result, JCM started the production of the macrolide API for TPI’s Azithromycin Dispersible Tablets (SFDA No: H20074145). The API produced by JCM is to supply for TPI’s own Azithromycin Tablets as well as for both domestic and international third party sales.
In April 2014, JCM has developed a new line of Azithromycin API products that support steady monthly export orders to South Asia. Following a series of tests on quality, purity, intermediates contents, stereochemistry, stability in comparison with the international standards of Azithromycin API, JCM has received monthly orders for manufacturing one of the major intermediates of Azithromycin, Azithromycin Amine (AA) at a competitive international price which varies from month to month according to the market demands and the foreign exchange rate. The current monthly orders for Azithromycin APIs were 5-8 tons per month.
Tianyin Medicine Trading Distribution Business (TMT)
TMT is established to distribute products manufactured by both TPI and other pharmaceutical companies to fuel our expanding sales network as well as to provide synergy to our existing organic product portfolio. TMT has been distributing mainly TPI's own products since its inception in 2009. Since 2010, TPI has signed and later extended distribution contracts with Jiangsu Lianshui Pharmaceutical (“Lianshui”) to distribute Lianshui-branded generic injection products including cough suppressant, antibiotics, anti-inflammatory medicines and other healthcare indications.
Pre-extraction and formulation plant development at Qionglai Facility (QLF)
In preparation for the new GMP standards stipulated by the PRC government in early 2011, TPI initiated a process to optimize the manufacturing facilities and production lines of the Company in compliance with the new GMP standards. We received our current GMP certificate for both of our pre-extraction plant and formulate facilities until December 2015. In addition, under the guidance by provincial government, our facility is scheduled to be relocated to Qionglai County, south of Chengdu, which is designated for the pharmaceutical industry. The relocation project includes our TCM pre-extraction plant. Both the pre-extraction plant and the formulation plant will subsequently be relocated to form a combined QLF, occupying an area of 80 mu (13 acres). The combined QLF, designed and constructed according to the latest GMP standards, is expected to relieve the current capacity saturation at the current facilities. The re-location cost for Phase I, which includes both the pre-extraction and formulation plant is estimated at $25 million, which is to boost the current capacity by at least 30-50%. The Phase II QLF, an additional $10 million may be invested to double the current capacity. By the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, the QLF construction project has been completed. TPI expects to receive the GMP certification at the end of December 2014.
Fiscal 2015 Guidance
The following factors, in our opinion, will influence the Company’s growth perspectives for fiscal year 2015:
| 1) | Market expansion and revenue growth of TPI’s core product portfolio led by flagship product Gingko Mihuan Oral Liquid (GMOL) and other major products; |
| 2) | JCM revenue at both domestic and international markets in the fiscal year 2015; |
| 3) | Generic sale stabilization and recovery along with our strategy to cope with pricing restrictions and market competition under the ongoing healthcare reform; and |
| 4) | QLF GMP certification/relocation and smooth transition of production capacity. |
We forecast that the organic revenue growth for TPI may range from 5-10% for the fiscal year 2015. Management will continue to evaluate the Company's business outlook and communicate any changes on a quarterly basis or as when appropriate.
Discussion on Operating Results
The following table shows the results of our business. All references to the results of operations and financial conditions are on a consolidated basis that includes Chengdu Tianyin, TMT, JCM and HSP.
Comparison of results for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013:
| | Three Months Ended | |
| | September 30, | | | September 30, | |
| | 2014 | | | 2013 | |
| | (In $ millions) | |
Sales | | | 9.7 | | | | 14.7 | |
Cost of sales | | | 4.7 | | | | 8.8 | |
Gross profit | | | 5.1 | | | | 6.0 | |
Income from Operation | | | 1.4 | | | | 2.2 | |
Provision for income taxes | | | 0.4 | | | | 0.6 | |
Net income | | | 1.0 | | | | 1.5 | |
Salesfor the quarter ended September 30, 2014 was $9.7 million as compared to $14.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. The sales decrease was a result of continuous pricing pressure and restrictive sales policies on generic products compared with the same period last year.
Cost of Sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 was $4.7 million or 48% of sales, as compared to $8.8 million or 60% of sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. Our cost of sales primarily consists of the costs of direct raw materials (85% of the cost of goods sold) and production cost (15% of cost of goods sold). The percentage decrease in our cost of sales from the previous period was mainly attributable to a greater percentage of higher margin products and a decrease of our lower margin generic segment.
Gross Margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2014 was 52% as compared to 40% for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. As discussed above, our gross margin improved, predominately as a result of an increased higher margin products being sold during the period. We see the trend to continue for the rest of fiscal 2015.
Income from Operations was $1.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, as compared to $2.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. The decrease of income from operations was mainly due to the amount of research & development costs towards cardiovascular portfolio centered on GMOL.
Net Income was $1.0 million with net margin of 10% for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, as compared to net income of $1.5 million with net margin of 10% for the quarter ended September 30, 2013.
Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment. Our reporting currency is the US dollar. We have evaluated the determination of its functional currency based on the guidance in ASC Topic, “Foreign Currency Matters,” which provides that an entity’s functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates; normally, that is the currency of the environment in which an entity primarily generates and expends cash. We have conducted financings in U.S. dollars, paid operating expenses primarily in U.S. dollars, paid dividends to our shareholders of common stock and expect to receive any dividends that may be declared by our subsidiaries in U.S. dollars. Therefore, we have determined that our functional currency is the U.S. dollar based on the expense and financing indicators, in accordance with the guidance in ASC 830-10-85-5. However, the functional currency of our indirectly owned operating subsidiary in China is Renminbi (RMB). Results of operations and cash flow are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate as quoted by the People’s Bank of China at the end of the period. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of shareholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.
Currency translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statement of Comprehensive Income and amounted to $728 and $612,662 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The balance sheet amounts with the exception of equity as of September 30, 2014 were translated at 6.1576 RMB to 1.00 US dollar as compared to 6.1350 RMB to 1.00 US dollar as of September 30, 2013. The equity accounts were stated at their historical rate. The average translation rates applied to income statement accounts for the quarters ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were the average exchange rates during the years.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
Not applicable
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that material information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that the information is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We performed an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our management has concluded as of June 30, 2014 and as of September 30, 2014, due to the existence of material weaknesses, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and were not effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in such reports is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter covered by this report that has materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. We are not aware of any pending or threatened legal proceeding that, if determined in a manner adverse to us, could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations.
