NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2010
1. | Organization and Basis of Presentation |
Description of the Business
One Bio, Corp. (formerly ONE Holdings, Corp), (formerly Contracted Services, Inc.) (“ONE” and/or the “Company”) was incorporated June 30, 2000 in the State of Florida as Contracted Services, Inc. and changed its name to ONE Holdings, Corp. on June 9, 2009 and subsequently on November 16, 2009 changed its name to ONE Bio, Corp. ONE and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Corporation” or “Company”) are utilizing green processes to produce raw chemicals and herbal extracts, natural supplements and organic products. Corporation is focused on the Asia Pacific region. The Corporation’s key products include widely recognized Solanesol, CoQ10, Resveratrol and 5-HTP, organic fertilizers, and organic bamboo health food and beverages.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).
Basis of Consolidation
In a series of transactions that were completed on July 22, 2009, ONE completed a transaction with Green Planet Bioengineering Co., Ltd. (“GPB”) of Delaware and Abacus Global Investments, Corp. (“Abacus”) of Florida. These transactions were accounted for as a reverse acquisition as the control of the Corporation was acquired by Abacus and the former shareholders of GPB. The Corporation’s name was changed to One Holdings, Corp. from Contracted Services, Inc. on June 4, 2009 and subsequently changed to ONE Bio, Corp on November 16, 2009. Although legally, ONE is regarded as the parent, GPB, whose shareholders along with Abacus, now hold more than 91% of the voting shares of the Corporation, is treated as the acquirer under US GAAP. Consequently, ONE is deemed a continuation of GPB and control of the assets and business of ONE is deemed to have been acquired in consideration for the issuance of the shares.
During the year ended December 31, 2009, the ONE completed two acquisitions: (i) on September 3, 2009, ONE completed the purchase of 99.75% of Trade Finance Solutions Inc; and (ii) on September 27, 2009, ONE completed the purchase of 83.3% of Supreme Discovery Group Limited (“Supreme”) and subsequently increased its ownership of Supreme to 98% effective September 27, 2009. ONE’s consolidated financial statements incorporate the results of these acquisitions, as of the acquisition date. See “Note 8 - Acquisitions” for the unaudited condensed pro-forma results these acquisitions for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007.
ONE’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all of its majority owned subsidiaries and the accounts of its variable interest entities, of which ONE is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. The functional currency of ONE’s foreign subsidiaries is in the United States Dollar, Canadian Dollar and Chinese Yuan. Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits with banks, money market accounts, and other short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. Balances of cash and cash equivalents in financial institutions may at times exceed the government-insured limits.
Restricted Cash
In accordance with ASC Topic 305 formerly Accounting Review Board (“ARB”) No. 43, Chapter 3A “Current Assets and Current Liabilities”, cash which is restricted as to withdrawal is considered a non-current asset.
Receivables
Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at original invoiced amount less an allowance for uncollectible accounts, as needed.
When evaluating the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts, the Company reviews the collectability of accounts receivable, historical write-offs, and changes in sales policies, customer credibility and general economic tendency.
Loans and Receivables
The assets are non-derivatives financial assets resulting from the delivery of cash or other assets by the lender to a borrower in return for a promise to repay on a specific date or dates, or on demand. . They are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently carried at amortized cost, using the effective interest method, less any provision for impairment. These assets are at fair value and management believes there is no impairment as of March 31, 2010.
Concentration of Credit
The Company extends credit to its customers for which no credit insurance is available. To date the Corporation has not incurred any significant loss due to this activity; however, if such occurrence was to occur, the loss may have an adverse effect on the financial position of the Company.
Capital Leases
The Company’s policy is to record leases, which transfer substantially all benefits and risks incidental to ownership of property, as acquisitions of property and equipment and to record the incurrence of corresponding obligations as liabilities. Obligations under capital leases are reduced by rental payments net of imputed interest.
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and current market value. Costs include the cost of purchase and processing, and other costs. Inventories are stated at cost upon acquisition. The cost of inventories is calculated using the weighted average method. Any excess of the cost over the net realizable value of each item of inventories is recognized as a provision for diminution in the value of inventories.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business less the estimated costs to completion and the estimated expenses and related taxes to make the sale.

Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which are not considered improvements and do not extend the useful life of the asset, are expensed as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized. When assets 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 the statement of operations in cost of blended products.
Depreciation is provided to recognize the cost of the asset in the results of operations. The Company calculates depreciation using the straight-line method with estimated useful life as follows:
| Building and structural components | 20 years |
| Computer equipment and software | 5 years |
| Leasehold improvements | 7 years |
| Machinery and equipment | 10 years |
| Office equipment and furniture | 5 years |
Land Use Rights
Land use rights represent the purchased rights to use land granted PRC land authorities. Depending on the PRC land authority, the land use rights can be conveyed in the form of a prepaid lease or a use agreement. Land use rights are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is provided using the straight line method over the terms of the agreement which range over a term of 30 to 50 years obtained from the relevant PRC land authorities.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist mainly of proprietary technology and software. The intangible assets are amortized using straight-line method over the life of the assets.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
In accordance with ASC Topic 360 Formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, certain assets such as property, plant, and equipment, and purchased intangibles, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Intangible assets are tested for impairment annually. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. There were no events or changes in circumstances that necessitated a review of impairment of long lived assets as of March 31, 2010 as well as March 31, 2009, respectively.

Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with the guidance in the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) ASC Topic 605 Formerly Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, when the selling price is fixed or determinable, when delivery occurs and when collection is probable. The Company recognizes sales revenue when goods are shipped or ownership has transferred.
Employee Future Benefits
Pursuant to the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC, the Company participates in various defined contribution retirement plans organized by the respective divisions in municipal and provincial governments for its employees. The Company is required to make contributions to the retirement plans in accordance with the contribution rates and basis as defined by the municipal and provincial governments. The contributions are charged to the respective assets or the income statement on an accrual basis. When employees retire, the respective divisions are responsible for paying their basic retirement benefits. The Company does not have any other obligations in this respect.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC topic 740 formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between accounting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and net operating loss and credit carry forwards, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. A provision for income tax expense is recognized for income taxes payable for the current period, plus the net changes in deferred tax amounts. Any interest and penalties are expensed in the year that the Notice of Assessment is received.
The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties to income tax matters in income tax expense.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses for the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items that require estimates are goodwill, deferred tax assets, stock-based compensation, deferred tax liabilities and the depreciation, and amortization of the Corporation’s assets.

Costs associated with the issuance of share capital are charged to capital stock upon the raising of share capital. Costs associated with the issuance of debt are part of the carrying value of the debt and charged to operations as non-cash financing expense using the effective interest rate method.
Foreign Currency Translation
In accordance with ASC Topic 830 formerly SFAS No.52, “Foreign Currency Translation”, the financial statements of subsidiaries of the Company are measured using local currency (Canadian Dollar and Chinese Yuan) as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities have been translated at period-end exchange rates and related revenue and expenses have been translated at average exchange rates. Gains and losses resulting from the translation of subsidiaries’ financial statements are included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity accumulated in other comprehensive income.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company estimates the fair value of its financial instruments based on current interest rates, quoted market values or the current price of financial instruments with similar terms. Unless otherwise disclosed herein, the carrying value of financial instruments, especially those with current maturities such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are considered to approximate their fair values.
Fair Value Measurements
In April 2009, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) released ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, (formerly SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements”) that defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
According to ASC 820, investment measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following hierarchy:
Level 1 - Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. The type of investments included in Level 1 included listed equities and listed derivatives.
Level 2 - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies. Investments that are generally included in this category include corporate bonds and loans, less liquid and restricted equity securities and certain over-the-counter derivatives.

Level 3 - Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and included situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.
Stock-Based Compensation Plan
The Corporation uses the fair value-based method for measurement and cost recognition of employee share-based compensation arrangements under the provisions of ASC Topic 718 formerly FASB, SFAS 123 (Revised 2004) and Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R), using the modified prospective transitional method.
Under the modified prospective transitional method, share-based compensation is recognized for awards granted, modified, repurchased or cancelled subsequent to the adoption of SFAS 123R. In addition, share-based compensation is recognized, subsequent to the adoption of SFAS 123R, for the remaining portion of the vesting period (if any) for outstanding awards granted prior to the date of adoption.
We measure share-based compensation costs on the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award. We have elected to treat awards with graded vesting as a single award when estimating fair value. Compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the employee requisite service period, which in our circumstances is the stated vesting period of the award, provided that total compensation cost recognized at least equals the pro rata value of the award that has vested. Compensation cost is initially based on the estimated number of options for which the requisite service is expected to be rendered. This estimate is adjusted in the period once actual forfeitures are known.
Earnings Per Share
Earnings (loss) per common share are reported in accordance with ASC Topic 260 formerly SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share”. SFAS No. 128 requires dual presentation of basic earnings per share (“EPS”) and diluted EPS on the face of all statements of earnings, for all entities with complex capital structures. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through the exercise or conversion of stock options, restricted stock awards, warrants and convertible securities. In certain circumstances, the conversion of these options, warrants and convertible securities are excluded from diluted EPS if the effect of such inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Fully diluted profit/loss per common share is not provided, when the effect is anti-dilutive.
When the effect of dilution on loss per share is anti-dilutive, diluted loss per share equals the loss per share.

Comprehensive Income
The Company follows ASC Topic 220 formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”. This statement establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income is net income plus certain items that are recorded directly to shareholders’ equity bypassing net income. Other than foreign exchange gains and losses, the Company has no other comprehensive income (loss).
Recent Changes in Accounting Standards
Recent accounting pronouncements that the Company has adopted or that will be required to adopt in the future are summarized below.
In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-05 which includes amendments to Subtopic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures—Overall”. The update provides clarification that in circumstances, in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the techniques provided for in this update. The amendments in this ASU clarify that a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability and also clarifies that both a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability at the measurement date and the quoted price for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1 fair value measurements. The guidance provided in this ASU is effective for the first reporting period, including interim periods, beginning after issuance. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-06, Income Taxes (Topic 740), “Implementation Guidance on Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes and Disclosure Amendments for Nonpublic Entities”, which provides implementation guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, as well as eliminates certain disclosure requirements for nonpublic entities. For entities that are currently applying the standards for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, this update shall be effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. For those entities that have deferred the application of accounting for uncertainty in income taxes in accordance with paragraph 740-10-65-1(e), this update shall be effective upon adoption of those standards. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations since this accounting standard update provides only implementation and disclosure amendments.
In September 2009, the FASB has published ASU No. 2009-12, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) - Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent)”. This ASU amends Subtopic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall”, to permit a reporting entity to measure the fair value of certain investments on the basis of the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent). This ASU also requires new disclosures, by major category of investments including the attributes of investments within the scope of this amendment to the Codification. The guidance in this Update is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In January 2010, the FASB has published ASU 2010-01 “Equity (Topic 505)- Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force,” as codified in ASC 505,. ASU No. 2010-01 clarifies the treatment of certain distributions to shareholders that have both stock and cash components. The stock portion of such distributions is considered a share issuance that is reflected in earnings per share prospectively and is not a stock dividend. The amendments in this Update are effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and should be applied on a retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s (consolidated) financial position and results of operations.
In January 2010, the FASB has published ASU 2010-02 “Consolidation (Topic 810)- Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary—a Scope Clarification,” as codified in ASC 810, “Consolidation.” ASU No. 2010-02 applies retrospectively to April 1, 2009, our adoption date for ASC 810-10-65-1. This ASU clarifies the applicable scope of ASC 810 for a decrease in ownership in a subsidiary or an exchange of a group of assets that is a business or nonprofit activity. The ASU also requires expanded disclosures. The amendments in this Update are effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and should be applied on a retrospective basis. . The adoption of this standard is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consoli dated financial position and results of operations.
In October 2009, the FASB has published ASU 2009-13, “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)-Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements”, which addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than as a combined unit. Specifically, this guidance amends the criteria in Subtopic 605-25, “Revenue Recognition-Multiple-Element Arrangements”, for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. This guidance establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which is based on: (a) vendor-specific objective evidence; (b) third-party evidence; or (c) estimates. This guidance also eliminates the residual method of allocation and requires that arrangement consideration be alloca ted at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method and also requires expanded disclosures. The guidance in this update is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In October 2009, the FASB has published ASU 2009-14, “Software (Topic 985)-Certain Revenue Arrangements that Include Software Elements” and changes the accounting model for revenue arrangements that include both tangible products and software elements. Under this guidance, tangible products containing software components and nonsoftware components that function together to deliver the tangible product’s essential functionality are excluded from the software revenue guidance in Subtopic 985-605, “Software-Revenue Recognition”. In addition, hardware components of a tangible product containing software components are always excluded from the software revenue guidance. The guidance in this ASU is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beg inning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In December 2009, the FASB has published ASU 2010-16 ““Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets.” ASU No. 2009-16 is a revision to ASC 860, “Transfers and Servicing,” and amends the guidance on accounting for transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, where entities have continued exposure to risks related to transferred financial assets. ASU No. 2009-16 also expands the disclosure requirements for such transactions. This ASU will become effective for us on April 1, 2010.. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In December 2009, the FASB has published ASU 2010-17 Consolidations (Topic 810): Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities.” ASU No. 2009-17 amends the guidance for consolidation of VIEs primarily related to the determination of the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this Update are e ffective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and should be applied on a retrospective basis. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Other ASUs not effective until after December 31, 2009, are not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Bridge Loan – For the quarter ended March 31, 2010, the Company issued warrants to purchase 444,298 shares in connection with a bridge loan financing transaction. The fair value of the warrants was determined by the Black-Scholes valuation model. The warrants were subject to certain “lock-up and leak out” provisions and expire on the fifth anniversary of the issuance date. |
The Company uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to determine the fair value of warrants on the date of grant. This model derives the fair value of options based on certain assumptions related to the expected stock price volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rates and dividend yield. For the period through December 31, 2009 the Company’s expected volatility is based on actual fluctuations in its share prices. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based upon the U.S. Treasury yield curve appropriate for the term of the expected life of the options.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2010, the fair value of each warrant grant was estimated on the date of grant using the following weighted-average assumptions.

Business Overview
ONE Bio, Corp., is an award winning, innovative bio-engineering company that utilizes green process manufacturing to produce raw chemicals and herbal extracts, natural supplements and organic products. We are focused on capitalizing on the rapidly growing markets of the Asia-Pacific region. Our key products include Solanesol, widely recognized CoQ10, Resveratrol and 5-HTP, organic fertilizers, and organic bamboo health food and beverages. Our growth plan targets an aggressive acquisition driven strategy supported by organic growth of our operating units. Through ONE Bio, smaller private companies that we acquire are provided access to capital, experienced management and strategic insight. We strive to build synergies among all of our subsidiaries. We work with each subsidiary to promote organic and acquisition driven growth. We are com mitted to becoming a leader in bioengineering utilizing green processes, combining our experience in producing our chemical and herbal extract products with seasoned North American managerial expertise. Our operations are currently focused on the Asia-Pacific Region which currently generates approximately 95% of our revenue.
We are headquartered in Miami, Florida; however, our primary contractually controlled operating enterprises, Sanming and JLF are based in Sanming City and Jianou City, respectively, in the Fujian province of China.
Operational Summary
Our operations are divided into two principal complementary business units that focus on producing chemical and herbal extracts (our “CHE” business unit) and organic products utilizing green processes (our “OP” business unit). We also have an internal financing business unit, Trade Finance Solutions (“TFS”), that assists and supports the growth of our core bioengineering business units. We believe our internal financing business unit provides us an excellent opportunity beyond funding our core operations to also provide purchase order financing to third-party clients that purchase products from us. In this arrangement, our internal financing business unit can insert itself into the collection process, expediting cash flow and debt repayment for all parties ultimately driving our growth rate. We fund our internal financing business unit through the sale of debentures to institutional and high net worth investors that pay quarterly interest to investors solely from the interest and fees generated from the financing business unit’s activities. The debenture is secured by the assets of the internal financing unit with no recourse to our other assets.
Because our CHE business unit was treated for accounting purposes as being acquired effective as of January 1, 2009, while our OP business unit and our financing business unit were treated for accounting purposes as having been acquired as of September 2009, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, approximately 60% of our revenue came from our CHE business unit, approximately 28% came from our OP business unit and approximately 12% came from our financing business unit. However, if the full year 2009 revenues for each of our 3 business units were used, approximately 34% of our revenues would have come from our CHE business unit, approximately 48% from our OP business unit and approximately 18% from our financing business unit.
Green Planet and our CHE operating division
Our CHE business unit operates under the umbrella of our 100% owned subsidiary Elevated Throne Overseas Ltd., a British Virgin Islands Company (“Elevated Throne”). Elevated Throne owns 100% of Fujian Green Planet Bioengineering Co., Ltd. (“Fujian GP”), which is a wholly foreign-owned enterprise (“WFOE”) organized under the laws of the Peoples Republic of China (the “PRC”). Fujian GP has entered into a series of irrevocable agreements with (i) Sanming Huajian Bio-Engineering Co., Ltd. (“Sanming”), a PRC company based in Sanming City in the Fujian province of China, which is licensed to operate its business in the PRC and (ii) the owners of Sanming. Pursuant to those irrevocable agreements, GP (through Fujian GP) contractually controls and operates Sanming, which is t he principle operating enterprise of our CHE business unit and which is located in PRC.
Sanming is a research & development company with a focus on improving human health through the development, manufacture and commercialization of bio-ecological products and over-the-counter products utilizing extractions from tobacco leaves. Sanming’s position in the bioengineering industry comes from its research & development which utilizes patented methods to create downstream products ranging from plant indigenous medicine and pharmaceutical intermediates to eco-friendly products. Since 2007, Sanming has developed a variety of natural organic products using tobacco leaves.
Our CHE business unit produces chemical and herbal extracts for use in a wide range of health and wellness products. Utilizing green technology and proprietary processes, this business unit extracts health supplements, fertilizers, and pesticides from waste tobacco. Our cost effective extraction process simultaneously extracts Solanesol and organic fertilizers from waste tobacco leaves. By extracting two products from a single extraction process, we believe we are able to generate higher margins than we would if we used a traditional single product fermentation extraction process. Additionally, we can further process the Solanesol to produce Coenzyme Q10 (“CoQ10”). Our CHE business unit also extracts from a variety of plants Resveratrol and 5-HTP, which are key components in many consumer health and wellness products.
We distribute our CHE products through established independent third party distributors which normally enter into renewable one-year distribution agreements with us. Our distributors are focused on the bio-health industry and raw chemical intermediates industry. This permits use to more accurately forecast sales and required production. In addition, feedback from our distributors provides us with good visibility on changes in consumer demand. Furthermore, we have established additional distribution channels, such as universities and hospital research centers. We are not substantially dependent on any of our distributors.
The owners of Sanming (our contractually controlled PRC operating entity) are Min Zhao, Min Yan Zhen, and Jiangle Jianlong Mineral Industry Co. At the time of the transactions between Fujian GP and Sanming, the owners of Sanming were also the owners of Fujian GP. Thereafter, we acquired Fujian GP as part of our acquisition of Green Planet. Min Zhao is a member of our Board of Directors, a shareholder and President of our China operations. Mr. Zhao continues to act as the President and a shareholder of Sanming which he now operates on our behalf as our President of China Operations pursuant to the irrevocable agreements.
UGTI and our OP operating division
Our OP business unit operates under the umbrella of our 98% owned subsidiary United Green Technology Inc., a Nevada corporation (“UGTI”), which through its wholly owned subsidiary Supreme Discovery Group Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Supreme Discovery”), owns 100% of Fujian United Bamboo Technology Company Ltd. (“Fujian United”), which is a WFOE organized under the laws of the PRC. Fujian United has entered into a series of irrevocable agreements with (i) Jianou Lujian Foodstuff Co. (“JLF”), a PRC company based in Jianou City, in the Fujian province of China, which is licensed to operate its business in the PRC and (ii) the owners of JLF. Pursuant to those irrevocable agreements, UGTI (through Fujian United) contractually controls and operates JLF, which is the principle ope rating enterprise of our OP business unit and which is located in the PRC.
JLF is an award-winning green-technology enterprise that specializes in the production of organic products and fertilizers based on bamboo. JLF was also one of the first companies in China to formulate a “zero-to-zero” process. The “zero-to-zero” process begins with bamboo cultivation in the ground, proceeds through manufacturing of end products, and ends with the production of organic fertilizers from any remaining waste. We use bamboo shoots for food, the stalks are sold for use in construction materials, and any remaining waste is used to create organic fertilizers. Virtually everything grown is used in some way, reducing the need for fertilizers, cutting energy consumption, and reducing costs. Our OP business unit concentrates on processing bamboo shoots and bamboos which it sells domestically in China and e xports to other countries.
Our OP business unit manufactures a variety of consumer and commercial-use health and energy drinks, organic food products and fertilizers primarily based on bamboo. Organic food products based on bamboo are low in saturated fat, cholesterol and sodium, yet high in dietary fiber, vitamin C, potassium, zinc, and numerous other nutrients, making bamboo shoots popular for weight loss and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Also, the Moso bamboo leaf extract, which contains soluble and insoluble fiber and antioxidants, is used to make a caffeine-free energy drink or is infused into white rice creating green bamboo rice with health benefits. Our OP business unit also uses bamboo skins to produce organic fertilizers, thereby substantially eliminating waste in the process.
Presently, our contractually controlled PRC operating entity, JLF, operates production lines to produce both 18L boiled bamboo shoot cans and boiled vegetable cans. The production capacity in 2008 reached 20,000 tons, an annual output value of RMB 120,000,000.00. This includes the production of 50 kinds of products, such as 18L boiled bamboo shoot cans, boiled bamboo shoot cans with vacuum packing, boiled mixed vegetables, boiled seasoned vegetables and Kamameshi (a Japanese rice dish), with a quality rating that meets national and international standards. The boiled bamboo shoots and mixed vegetables account for the majority of the products sold with approximately 80% of all products sold domestically and approximately 20% exported to other countries such as Japan, Southeast Asia, Europe and North America.
We distribute our OP products directly to large supermarket chains , hotels, hospitals and restaurants. We also distribute our products through a network of independent third party distributors who enter into renewable one year distribution agreements with us. We are not substantially dependent on any of our distributors.
In order to harvest the benefits of integrating growing and profitable Chinese operating enterprises with the management and financial techniques available to North American enterprises, we adhere to a “Yin-Yang” management strategy based on the Chinese Philosophy of “Correlative Thinking.” The core components of this approach are: constructing a strong, balanced team; addressing the needs of investors; and realizing the importance of diversity. In practical terms, our strategy is to combine the manufacturing expertise and work ethic of the Eastern world with the investment experience and management skills of the best North American companies. Our team in China works together with our North American management to grow our core business, and provide transparency with an emphasis on risk management and internal co ntrols.
The owners of JLF are Jinrong Tang, Li Li Fang and Tang Shuiyou. Jinrong Tang is Vice President of our China Operations and a shareholder. At the time of the transactions between Fujian United and JLF, the owners of JLF were also the owners of Fujian United. Thereafter, we acquired Fujian United as part of our acquisition of Supreme Discovery. Mr. Tang continues to act as the President of JLF which he now operates on our behalf as our Vice President of China Operations pursuant to the irrevocable agreements. Jinrong Tang, Li Li Fang and Tang Shuiyou own the remaining 2% of the stock of our UGTI subsidiary.
TFS and our financing division
Our internal financing business unit operates under the umbrella of our 99.75% owned subsidiary TFS, an Ontario, Canada, company. TFS was established in 2006 to provide creative financing solutions, including purchase order financing, fulfillment services and factoring or invoice discounting for credit worthy customers of eligible goods and services. TFS has branch offices in Lima, Peru and Miami, Florida. TFS has a wholly owned subsidiary, TFP International Inc., a Florida corporation, which operates the Miami office.
TFS conducts a thorough review and due diligence examination of potential borrowers and the respective borrower’s customers before the particular transaction is approved. An analysis of each individual transaction also takes place through TFS’ credit approval process, in order to ensure that all parties in the transaction receive value, and that TFS will be re-paid according to the terms agreed to in the particular transaction. Security for the financing includes a first lien position on the receivables and assets of the client (UCC, PPSA), personal guaranty and credit insurance. In addition, 100% of TFS’ financing transactions are credit insured with large, multi-national insurance companies. In a typical financing transaction, a letter of credit will be utilized to provide all parties with the protections on agreed to delivery, quality and timelines. TFS’ clients are primarily small and medium size businesses registered and/or located in the United States and Canada, which export their products internationally. Through TFS we also offer purchase order financing to third-party clients that purchase products from our CHE business unit and our OP business unit to assist to assist in the collection process, and expedite cash flow and debt repayment.
Our internal financing business unit offers the following types of financing: factoring or invoice discounting, where TFS, as factor, purchases the client’s credit insured receivables (i.e., invoices) for products or services satisfactorily rendered to creditworthy customers. By selling receivables to TFS, the client can generate cash almost immediately, instead of waiting the usual 30, 60, 90 days. TFS will verify, insure and control the transaction with the ultimate payer; purchase order financing (or PO Funding) which is a mechanism put in place to provide a short-term finance option to clients who have pre-sold finished goods and a requirement to pre-pay suppliers. All these OP Funding transactions are on a “per project” basis. Typically the client has a purchase order from a credit insured customer but does not h ave the capital to pay their supplier upfront. TFS typically requires that the client must have “pre-sold” the goods with strong profit margins. TFS utilizes Letters of Credit to purchase the goods from the supplier and protect all parties. Once the goods are accepted by the end customer, TFS then factors the invoice and pays off the purchase order facility; and fulfillment services, most of which are provided through TFP and which involves the goods being acquired by TFP on terms negotiated with both supplier and end-client. Here TFP has established credit insurance and marine cargo insurance policies. The customer provides the purchase order and sales contract to TFP, which completes the transaction and disburses the proceeds.
Historically TFS has funded its financing transactions through the sale of debentures to institutional investors and high net worth investors, often on an individual transaction basis. The debentures pay quarterly interest to the investors solely from the interest and fees generated from the financing activities. The debenture is secured by the assets of TFS with no recourse to other assets of ONE Bio. Through ONE Bio, TFS have greater access to capital to finance its business and through its association with our other business units, access to new international markets.
Results of Operations and Financial Condition
As a result of the reverse acquisition transaction with Green Planet BioEngineering, Ltd. (“GPB”) (“CHE”), discussed elsewhere in this interim report, although legally GPB was acquired by ONE, for accounting and financial reporting purposes, GPB was considered the accounting acquirer and therefore ONE is considered to be a continuation of GPB. Our two other acquisitions that occurred in September 2009, Trade Finance Solutions (“TFS”) (‘Fin”) and United Green Technology, Inc. (“UGTI”) (“OP”) were accounted for as purchases. Accordingly, the information reported in our interim consolidated financial statements and in the following discussion and analysis of our operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to the corresponding p eriods in 2009, include the operating results of GPB for the periods presented consolidated with the operating results of TFS and UGTI from their acquisition dates which are September 2, 2009 and September 27, 2009 respectively. As a result, the comparative numbers for March 31, 2009 include only GPB. GPBTFS and UGTI’s operating units are CHE, the Financing unit, and the OP unit, respectively.
Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 versus March 31, 2009
Operating Revenues
The Company generated $11,162,507 of revenues from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to $2,297,621 from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2009, an increase of $8,864,886 or 385.8%. The increase in revenue is primarily the result of the acquisitions and organic growth strategies.
Approximately $7.9 million of the increase in revenue is mainly due to the inclusion of revenues from the Company’s recently completed acquisition of the Financing unit and the OP unit, which contributed revenues of approximately $3.5 million and $4.5 million, respectively for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The revenues from these acquisitions are only included from the date of their respective acquisitions both of which occurred in September of 2009 and as a result, revenues for March 31, 2009 are only from CHE.
Approximately $1.0 million of the increase in revenues is due to the increase in sales resulting from the continued focus on driving customer value through its core product lines. In addition, the company is positioned to take advantage of a shift in the product and customer mix combined with a broader product portfolio which has not contributed significantly to the increase in sales. The Company continues to experience an increase in demand for its core product portfolio and has increased the number of customers compared to prior periods.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were $7,054,796 compared to $852,686 for the same period in 2009, resulting in an increase of $6,202,110 or 727.4%. The increase in cost of sales is primarily the result of the acquisition and organic growth strategies.
Approximately $5.6 million of the increase in cost of sales is due to the inclusion of costs from the Company’s recently completed acquisitions of the Financing unit and OP unit, which contributed costs of approximately $3.0 million and $2.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The cost of sales from these acquisitions are only included from the date of their respective acquisitions both of which occurred in September 2009 and as a result, cost of sales for March 31, 2009 are only from CHE.
Approximately $0.6 million of the increase in cost is primarily related to the higher revenues, organically and a shift in raw material product mix in its core product lines. Increases in raw material costs drove an overall decrease in gross profit as a percentage of revenues.
It is significant to note that the recent acquisitions (the Financing unit and OP) have higher costs of sale which result in lower margins but operate with reduced operating expenses when compared to the other operating businesses.
Gross Profit
Gross profit from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were $4,107,711 compared to $1,444,935 for the same period in 2009, resulting in an increase of $2,662,776 or 184.3%. The increase in gross profit is primarily the result of the acquisition and organic growth strategies. Gross profit for March 31, 2009 is only from CHE.
Approximately $2.3 million of the increase in gross profit is due to the inclusion of gross profit from the Company’s recently completed acquisitions of the Financing and OP units, which contributed gross profit of approximately $0.5 million and $1.8 million respectively for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The acquisitions were overall accretive however; these acquisitions had the effect of reducing the consolidated gross profit as a percentage of revenues. This reduction occurs because each acquired entity individually generates a lower gross profit percentage than CHE. The individual gross profit percentages of CHE, OP and the Financing unit for the three months ended 2010 are 54.9%, 41.2% and 14.1%, respectively. While the recent acquisitions have lower gross margins, they also operate with lower expenses, which positiv ely contribute to the net income.
Approximately $0.4 million of the increase in gross profit is primarily a result of CHE’s operating performance. Gross profit from CHE’s operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were $1,790,149 compared to $1,444,935 for the same period in 2009, resulting in an increase of 23.4%. Correspondingly, gross profit for CHE as a percentage of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was 54.9% compared to 62.9% for the same period in 2009. As previously discussed, the decrease is a result of increased raw material costs and the introduction of new products that are not currently produced in economic quantities. Secondarily, we have not yet been able to pass along all of our production cost increases to our customers in the form of price increases.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were $1,214,869 as compared to $304,712 for the same period last year. This represents an increase of $910,157 or 298.7%. Operating expenses for March 31, 2009 consist only of expenses from CHE since the acquisitions were made at a later period. Operating expenses for CHE amounted to $556,498 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 compared to $304,712 for the same period last year. Operating expenses are comprised of general and administrative expenses, research and development and sales and marketing expenses. The decrease in selling and marketing expenses is due to a reversal of business tax on management fee in the amount of $237,912 pertaining to the OP division. The operating expenses for CHE, Financing unit and OP individually amount to $556,498, $284,431 and ($608), respectively. The selling and marketing expenses for CHE include advertizing and trade show expenses which totaled $122,018 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 in order to drive future sales and sales of new products. The main cost drivers for the company, besides advertizing and trade show costs, are personnel cost, travel costs, management cost, accounting and audit fees. Research and development (R&D) expenses totaled $60,388 and $36,466 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The increase in R&D expenses is due to a broader product line. The Company’s efforts to broaden and strengthen its product portfolio will continue, however, at a pace that is consistent with the economy and the increasing sales activities.
Operating Income
Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $2,892,842 versus $1,140,223 which is an increase of $1,752,619 or 153.7%. The CHE business contributed $1,233,651 of the increase for an 8.2% organic growth over the prior year. The OP and Financial units contributed $1,832,933 and $200,806, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The Company continues to focus on the execution of its business plan and with the completed acquisitions of CHE, the Financing unit and OP unit, the company is positioned for continued organic growth among all product lines and subsidiaries.
Financing and Other Income/Expenses
Financing expenses include interest expense on the Company’s various financial instruments. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 the Company recognized $3,838 in interest income from its various instruments. The Company’s interest and financing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010 amounted to $199,109.

Income before Income Taxes and Non-controlling Interests
For the three months ended March 31, 2010, income before income taxes and non-controlling interest was $2,533,442 versus $1,140,384, which is an increase of $1,393,058 or 122.2%. The increase is mainly due to the results of the additions of the Financing unit and OP unit. These units contributed for the three months ended March 31, 2010, $124,084 and $1,789,502, respectively. The income was reduced by expenses totaling $578,584 in the corporate unit. However, $236,737 of these expenses are non-cash impacting since these pertain to stock compensation and amortization of loan fees.
Provisions for Income Taxes
For the three months ended March 31, 2010, provisions for income taxes were $702,515 versus $297,659 for the same period last year, which is an increase of $404,856 or 136.0%. The increase is associated with the recent acquisitions completed in September 2009. The tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2009 pertains only to the CHE business.
Non-controlling Interest
For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the non-controlling interest was $193,855 versus none the prior year period. The non-controlling interest was created by ONE acquiring less than 100% interest in CHE, the Financing unit, and the OP unit.
Net Income
Net income for the three month ended March 31, 2010 was $1,637,072 compared to $842,725 for the same period last year, which is an increase of $794,347 or 94.3%. The increase was attributable to the organic growth of the CHE business and the acquisitions of the Financing and OP businesses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As discussed elsewhere in this document, the Company has implemented a two pronged strategy, which is:
● | to encourage and support organic expansion within the enterprises it acquires and utilize synergies and economies of scale between the entities; and |
● | to identify and acquire accretive acquisition targets. |
To be successful, each strategy requires adequate funding from available liquidity resources. Accordingly, ONE has determined that its organic expansion strategy is first supported through organically generated cash flow and supplemented by available borrowing capacity depending on the requirements of the anticipated expansion project. Any liquidity organically generated in excess of reinvestment needs will be channeled to the accretive acquisition strategy or retained for future expansion projects.
The Company had working capital of $12,890,857 as of March 31, 2010. Our operating and capital requirements in connection with supporting our expanding operations and introducing new products have been and will continue to be significant to us. Although we are profitable, and have been profitable, for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, our growth strategy, which is initially focused on accretive acquisitions and organically expanding our product lines will require substantial capital which we may not be able to satisfy solely through our operations.
Based on our current plans for the next 12 months, we anticipate that additional revenues earned from our expanded product line and broadened distribution channels will be the primary organic source of funds for future operating activities in 2010. However, to fund continued expansion of our product lines and extend our reach to broader markets, including international markets, and to acquire additional entities, we may rely on bank borrowing, if available as well as capital raises. The comments discussed below in “Cash Flows for the three months Ended March 31, 2010 compared to March 31, 2009” section address our organic cash resources and the relevant trends and drivers associated with those cash flows.
Financial Position
Total Assets - Our total assets increased $6,854,114 or 12.5% to $61,487,695 as of March 31, 2010 from $54,663,851 as of December 31, 2009 primarily as a result of a net increase in current assets. (See cash flows from operating activities below for further discussion.)
There were no significant changes in long lived assets.
The changes in current assets and specifically cash are more fully discussed as follows:

Additionally, the Company announced the appointment of Jan Koe to the audit committee.
Significant Estimates
Critical accounting polices include the areas where we have made what we consider to be particularly subjective or complex judgments in making estimates and where these estimates can significantly impact our financial results under different assumptions and conditions.
We prepare our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As such, we are required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based upon the information available. These estimates, judgments and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods presented. Actual results could be different than those estimates
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-05 which includes amendments to Subtopic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures—Overall”. The update provides clarification that in circumstances, in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the techniques provided for in this update. The amendments in this ASU clarify that a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability and also clarifies that both a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability at the measurement date and the quoted price for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1 fair value measurements. The guidance provided in this ASU is effective for the first reporting period, including interim periods, beginning after issuance. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-06, Income Taxes (Topic 740), “Implementation Guidance on Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes and Disclosure Amendments for Nonpublic Entities”, which provides implementation guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, as well as eliminates certain disclosure requirements for nonpublic entities. For entities that are currently applying the standards for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, this update shall be effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. For those entities that have deferred the application of accounting for uncertainty in income taxes in accordance with paragraph 740-10-65-1(e), this update shall be effective upon adoption of those standards. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations since this accounting standard update provides only implementation and disclosure amendments.
In September 2009, the FASB has published ASU No. 2009-12, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) - Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent)”. This ASU amends Subtopic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall”, to permit a reporting entity to measure the fair value of certain investments on the basis of the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent). This ASU also requires new disclosures, by major category of investments including the attributes of investments within the scope of this amendment to the Codification. The guidance in this Update is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In January 2010, the FASB has published ASU 2010-01 “Equity (Topic 505)- Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force,” as codified in ASC 505,. ASU No. 2010-01 clarifies the treatment of certain distributions to shareholders that have both stock and cash components. The stock portion of such distributions is considered a share issuance that is reflected in earnings per share prospectively and is not a stock dividend. The amendments in this Update are effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and should be applied on a retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s (consolidated) financial posi tion and results of operations.
In January 2010, the FASB has published ASU 2010-02 “Consolidation (Topic 810)- Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary—a Scope Clarification,” as codified in ASC 810, “Consolidation.” ASU No. 2010-02 applies retrospectively to April 1, 2009, our adoption date for ASC 810-10-65-1. This ASU clarifies the applicable scope of ASC 810 for a decrease in ownership in a subsidiary or an exchange of a group of assets that is a business or nonprofit activity. The ASU also requires expanded disclosures. The amendments in this Update are effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and should be applied on a retrospective basis. . The adoption of this standard is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consoli dated financial position and results of operations.
In October 2009, the FASB has published ASU 2009-13, “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)-Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements”, which addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than as a combined unit. Specifically, this guidance amends the criteria in Subtopic 605-25, “Revenue Recognition-Multiple-Element Arrangements”, for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. This guidance establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which is based on: (a) vendor-specific objective evidence; (b) third-party evidence; or (c) estimates. This guidance also eliminates the residual method of allocation and requires that arrangement consideration be alloca ted at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method and also requires expanded disclosures. The guidance in this update is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In October 2009, the FASB has published ASU 2009-14, “Software (Topic 985)-Certain Revenue Arrangements that Include Software Elements” and changes the accounting model for revenue arrangements that include both tangible products and software elements. Under this guidance, tangible products containing software components and nonsoftware components that function together to deliver the tangible product’s essential functionality are excluded from the software revenue guidance in Subtopic 985-605, “Software-Revenue Recognition”. In addition, hardware components of a tangible product containing software components are always excluded from the software revenue guidance. The guidance in this ASU is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beg inning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In December 2009, the FASB has published ASU 2010-16 ““Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets.” ASU No. 2009-16 is a revision to ASC 860, ���Transfers and Servicing,” and amends the guidance on accounting for transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, where entities have continued exposure to risks related to transferred financial assets. ASU No. 2009-16 also expands the disclosure requirements for such transactions. This ASU will become effective for us on April 1, 2010.. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In December 2009, the FASB has published ASU 2010-17 Consolidations (Topic 810): Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities.” ASU No. 2009-17 amends the guidance for consolidation of VIEs primarily related to the determination of the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
In January 2010, the FASB has published ASU 2010-06 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): - Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. ASU No. 2010-06 clarifies improve disclosure requirement related to fair value measurements and disclosures – Overall Subtopic (Subtopic 820-10) of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosure about purchase, sales, issuances, and settlement in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this Update are e ffective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and should be applied on a retrospective basis. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Other ASUs not effective until after December 31, 2009, are not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Disclosure Control and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in company reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the “Exchange Act,” is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
The Company’s management with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2010. Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective and designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that if files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations and accumulated and communicated to them as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate “internal control over financial reporting” as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting refers to the process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and includes those policies and procedures that:
i. | pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; |
ii. | provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and |
iii. | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements. |
As of March 31, 2010 and as reported in the 10-K filing, management used the framework set forth in the report entitled “Internal Control – Integrated Framework” published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Tread way commission to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on its evaluation, management concluded that at March 31, 2010 there was a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
The Company’s material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting related to the monitoring and review of work performed in the preparation of audit and financial statements, footnotes, and financial data provided to the Company’s registered public accounting firm. Management concluded that our financial disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the Company’s limited internal resources and lack of ability to have multiple levels of transaction review. Through the use of external consultants and the review process, management believes that the financial statements and other information presented herewith are materially correct. The lack of accounting staff results in a lack of segregation of duties necessary for an effective system of internal control.& #160; The material weakness identified did not result in the restatement of any previously reported financial statements for 2008 or any other related financial disclosure, nor does management believe that it had any effect on the accuracy of the Company’s financial statements for the current reporting period.
In order to mitigate this material weakness to the fullest extent possible, all quarterly and annual financial reports are reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer for reasonableness and all unexpected results are investigated. At any time, if it appears that any control can be implemented to continue to mitigate such weakness, it is immediately implemented. The Company is seeking a permanent placement for the Chief Financial Officer position.
During the most recently completed fiscal quarter, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
