NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments consisting only of normal recurring accruals considered necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position at January 31, 2009, the consolidated results of operations and consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended January 31, 2009 and 2008 and for the period from September 25, 2002 (inception) to January 31, 2009. The consolidated results for the three months ended January 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year ending October 31, 2009. These consolidated financial statement should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes for the period ended October 31, 2008 appearing in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
NOTE 2 ORGANIZATION
Advanced BioMedical Technologies, Inc. (fka “Geostar Mineral Corporation” or ”Geostar”) (“ABMT”) was incorporated in Nevada on September 12, 2006.
Shenzhen Changhua Biomedicine Engineering Company Limited (“Shenzhen Changhua”) was incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) on September 25, 2002 as a limited liability company with a registered capital of $724,017. Shenzhen Changhua is owned by two stockholders in the proportion of 70% and 30% respectively. Shenzhen Changhua plans to develop, manufacture and market self-reinforced, re-absorbable degradable PA screws, robs and binding ties for fixation on human fractured bones. The Company is currently conducting clinical trials on its products and intends to raise additional capital to produce and market its products commercially pending the approval from the State Food and Drug Administration (“SFDA”) of the PRC on its products. The Company has no revenue since its inception and, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 7, “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprise,” is considered a Development Stage Company.
Masterise Holdings Limited (“Masterise”) was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on 31 May, 2007 as an investment holding company. Masterise is owned as to 63% by the spouse of Shenzhen Changhua’s 70% majority stockholder and 37% by a third party corporation.
On January 29, 2008, Masterise entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (“the Agreement”) with a stockholder of Shenzhen Changhua whereupon Masterise acquired 70% of Shenzhen Changhua for US$64,100 in cash. The acquisition was completed on February 25, 2008. As both Masterise and Shenzhen Changhua are under common control and management, the acquisition was accounted for as a reorganization of entities under common control. Accordingly, the operations of Shenzhen Changhua for the three months ended January 31, 2009 and 2008 were included in the consolidated financial statements as if the transactions had occurred retroactively.
On December 31, 2008, ABMT consummated a Share Exchange Agreement (“the Exchange Agreement”) with the stockholders of Masterise pursuant to which Geostar issued 50,000 shares of Common Stock to the stockholders of Masterise for 100% equity interest in Masterise.
Concurrently, on December 31, 2008, a major stockholder of ABMT also consummated an Affiliate Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Affiliate Agreement”) with thirteen individuals including all the stockholders of Masterise, pursuant to which the major stockholder sold a total of 5,001,000 shares of Geostar’s common stock for a total aggregate consideration of $5,000, including 4,438,250 shares to the stockholders of Masterise.
On consummation of the Exchange Agreement and the Affiliate Agreement, the 70% majority stockholder of Masterise became a 80.7% stockholder of ABMT.
The merger of ABMT and Masterise is being treated for accounting purposes as a capital transaction and recapitalization by Masterise (“the accounting acquirer”) and a re-organization by ABMT (“the accounting acquiree”). The financial statements have been prepared as if the re-organization had occurred retroactively.
Accordingly, these financial statements include the following:
| (1) | The balance sheet consisting of the net assets of the acquirer at historical cost and the net assets of the acquiree at historical cost. |
| (2) | The statement of operations including the operations of the acquirer for the periods presented and the operations of the acquiree from the date of the transaction. |
ABMT, Masterise and Shenzhen Changhua are hereinafter referred to as (“the Company”)
NOTE 3 PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of ABMT and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Masterise and its 70% owned subsidiary, Shenzhen Changhua. The minority interests represent the minority stockholders’ 30% proportionate share of the results of Shenzhen Changhua.
All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
NOTE 4 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
As of January 31, 2009, the Company owed $174,460 to a stockholder which is unsecured and repayable on demand. Interest is charged at 7% per annum on the amount owed.
As of January 31, 2009, the Company owed $193,995 to a related party which is unsecured and repayable on demand. Interest is charged at 7% per annum on the amount owed.
Total interest expenses on advances from a stockholder and a related party accrued for the three months ended January 31, 2009 and 2008 and for the period from September 25, 2002 (inception) through January 31, 2009 are $5,117, $0 and $10,670 respectively.

NOTE 5 COMMON STOCK
On December 31, 2008, the Company issued 510,400 shares of common stock in reverse merger for the recapitalization of Masterise and re-organization of ABMT.
NOTE 6 RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141R”). SFAS 141R establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the goodwill acquired. SFAS 141R also establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business combination. This statement is
effective for use beginning January 1, 2009. The Company does not expect adoption of SFAS 141R will have a material impact on its financial position and results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). This statement improves the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting standards that require the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent and the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the non-controlling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income, changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary be accounted for consistently, when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained non-controlling equity investment in the former subsidiary be initially measured at fair value, entities provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners. SFAS 160 affects those entities that have an outstanding non-controlling interest in one or more subsidiaries or that deconsolidate a subsidiary. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company does not expect adoption of SFAS 160 will have a material effect on its financial position and results of operations.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (SFAS 161). This statement is intended to improve transparency in financial reporting by requiring enhanced disclosures of an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging activities and their effects on the entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 applies to all derivative instruments within the scope of SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (SFAS 133) as well as related hedged items, bifurcated derivatives, and non-derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments. Entities with instruments subject to SFAS 161 must provide more robust qualitative disclosures and expanded quantitative disclosures. SFAS 161 is effective prospectively for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application permitted. The Company does not expect adoption of SFAS 161 will have a material effect on its financial position and results of operations.
In May 2008, the FASB released SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of non-governmental entities that presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. SFAS No. 162 will be effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the PCAOB amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The Company does not expect adoption of SFAS 162 will have a material effect on its financial position and results of operations.
In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60.” The scope of this Statement is limited to financial guarantee insurance (and reinsurance) contracts, as described in this Statement, issued by enterprises included within the scope of Statement 60. Accordingly, this Statement does not apply to financial guarantee contracts issued by enterprises excluded from the scope of Statement 60 or to some insurance contracts that seem similar to financial guarantee insurance contracts issued by insurance enterprises (such as mortgage guaranty insurance or credit insurance on trade receivables). This Statement also does not apply to financial guarantee insurance
contracts that are derivative instruments included within the scope of FASB Statement No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” The Company does not expect adoption of SFAS 163 will have a material effect on its financial position and results of operations.
In October 2008, FASB issued FSP FAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active”, to clarify guidance on determining the fair value of a financial asset under SFAS No. 157 in a market that is not active. FSP FAS 157-3 was effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements had not been issued. The adoption of this statement effective September 30, 2008 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In November 2008, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF No. 08 – 7, “Accounting for Defensive Intangible Assets” (“EITF 08 -7”) that clarifies accounting for defensive intangible assets subsequent to initial measurement. EITF 08 – 7 applies to acquired intangible assets which an entity has no intention of actively using, or intends to discontinue use of, the intangible asset but holds it (locks up) to prevent others from obtaining access to it (i.e., a defensive intangible asset). Under EITF 08 – 7, the Task Force reached a consensus that an acquired defensive asset should be accounted for as a separate unit of accounting (i.e., an asset separate from other assets of the acquirer); and the useful life assigned to an acquired defensive asset should be based on the period during which the asset would diminish in value. ETIF 08 – 7 is effective for defensive intangible assets acquired in fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company does not believe EITF 08 - 7 will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 7 GOING CONCERN
As reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $1,190,002 at January 31, 2009 that includes a net loss of $129,189 for the three months ended January 31, 2009. The Company’s total current liabilities exceed its total current assets by $981,590 and the Company used cash in operations of $98,261. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. In view of the matters described above, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying condensed balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Management has taken the following steps to revise its operating and financial requirements, which it believes are sufficient to provide the Company with the ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is actively pursuing additional funding and strategic partners, which will enable the Company to implement its business plan. Management believes that these actions as successful will allow the Company to continue its operations through the next fiscal year.
NOTE 8 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
| i. | On March 13, 2009, the former Geostar Mineral Corporation changed its name to Advanced BioMedical Technologies, Inc. |
| ii. | On March 13, 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a stock split, effected as a stock dividend, of ten shares of common stock for every one share of common stock held by stockholders of record as of the close of business on February 17, 2009. Following the stock split, the Company’s issued and outstanding shares increased from 5,561,400 shares of common stock to 55,614,000 shares of common stock. All basic and diluted loss per share and average shares outstanding information have been adjusted to reflect the aforementioned stock dividend. |

Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward looking statements as a result of any number of factors, including those set forth in this Quarterly Report as well as under the section entitled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 13, 2009.
The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to other companies in the medical device industry. These risks include but are not limited to rapid technological change, uncertainty of market acceptance of our products, uncertainty of regulatory approval, competition from substitute products and larger companies, the need to obtain additional financing, compliance with government regulation, protection of proprietary technology, product liability, and the dependence on key individuals.
All written and oral forward-looking statements made in connection with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by
these cautionary statements. Given the uncertainties that surround such statements, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.
Our Business
We are engaged in the business of designing, developing, manufacturing and the planned future marketing of self-reinforced, re-absorbable biodegradable internal fixation devices. Our polyamide materials are protected by Patent no. ZL97119073.9, PRC, issued by the Chinese Intellectual Property Rights Bureau, is used in producing screws, binding wires, rods and related products. These products are used in a variety of applications which include orthopedic trauma, sports related medical treatment, or cartilage injuries. Our products are biodegradable internal fixation devices which are made of a very unique material called Polyamide (“PA”). Our PA products, such as screws, rods, and binding wires consist of enhanced fibers and high molecular polymers which are designed to facilitate quick healing of complex fractures in many areas of the human skeletal system. Our products offer a number of significant advantages over existing metal implants and the first generation of degradable implants (i.e. PLLA) for patients, surgeons and other customers including:
| 1. | A notably reduced need for a secondary surgery to remove implant due to post-operative complications, therefore avoiding unnecessary risk and expense on all patient care; |
| 2. | Enhancing the performance of the materials by manufacturing them to be easily fitted to each patient, forming an exact fit; |
| 3. | Improving the biological activity of materials. Clinical trial results have shown that as PA implants degrade, they promote a progressive shift of load to the new bone creating micro-motion and thereby avoiding bone atrophy due to ‘stress shielding’; |
| 4. | Reducing the chance of post-operative infection; |
| 5. | Effectively controlling the degeneration speed, so that there will be no complications in treating repeat injuries; |
| 6. | Ease of post-operative care i.e. no distortion during x-ray imaging; |
| 7. | Simple and cost-effective to manufacture. |
Our products are designed to replace the traditional internal fixation device made of stainless steel and titanium and overcome the limitations of previous generations of products such as PLA and PLLA. Our laboratory statistics show that our PA products have a higher mechanical strength, last longer in degradation ratio and are more evenly absorbed form outer layer inwards as compared with similar materials such as PLA and PLLA. Thus PA allows increased restoration time for bone healing and re-growth. The Company’s PA Screw is currently being tested in human trials under permit from China’s State Food and Drug Administration (“SFDA”). As of January 31, 2009, the Company completed 49 success trial cases. We anticipate that the final 11 cases will be completed by the end of the second fiscal quarter of 2009. Upon the completion of these trials, the Company will apply for the China’s SFDA’s final approval.
Process of Human Trials
As of January 31, 2009, for medical study and comparison purpose, the company has completed a total of 61 successful clinical human trial cases, including 49 cases on ankle fractures. Under SFDA Regulations, a total number of 60 cases must be completed before approval is considered. Amended SFDA regulations,
unlike previous regulations, also specified an applicant must specify the position on the body where the clinical trial will be carried on. For these reasons, only 49 cases on the ankle fracture are statistically included by the SFDA as final successful clinical trial cases. Our SFDA application has specified the ankle fracture as the body part of our clinical trial. This is because bones around this part carry most of the body weight. Therefore, the company needs to complete the remaining 11 cases in order to meet the SFDA requirements. Currently, we have been conducting human trials at the 6 state level hospitals recognized by SFDA for clinical trials in different cities throughout China; including Nanchang, Changsha, Luoyang, Nanning and Tianjin.
The company anticipates that by the third fiscal quarter of 2009, we will have completed all clinical trial cases and can file immediately for the SFDA final approval. Furthermore, we can foresee that following the SFDA final approval, the company will be in revenue as early as January of 2010. The company is looking forward to starting the application process for the PA Biding Ties with the SFDA by the end of 2009 with sufficient funding in place.
There can be no assurance that the company will be able to obtain any further clearances or approvals, if required, to market its products for their intended uses on a timely basis, if at all. Moreover, regulatory approvals, if granted, may include significant limitations on the indicated uses for which a product may be marketed. Delays in the receipt of or the failure to obtain such clearances or approvals, the need for additional clearances or approvals, the loss of previously received clearances or approvals, unfavorable limitations or conditions of approval, or the failure to comply with existing or future regulatory requirements could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
Medical implant devices/products manufactured or marketed by the company in China are subject to extensive regulations by the SFDA. Pursuant to the related laws and acts, as amended, and the regulations promulgated there under (the "SFDA Regulations"), the SFDA regulates the clinical testing, manufacture, labeling, distribution and promotion of medical devices. The SFDA also has the authority to request repair, replacement, or refund of the cost of any device manufactured or distributed by the Company.
Under the SFDA Regulations, medical devices are classified into three classes (class I, II or III), the basis of the controls deemed necessary by the SFDA to reasonably assure their safety and efficacy. Under the SFDA's regulations, class I devices are subject to general controls [for example, labeling and adherence to Good Manufacturing Practices (“GMP”) requirements] and class II devices are subject to general and special controls. Generally, class III devices are those which must receive premarket approval by the SFDA to ensure their safety and efficacy (for example, life-sustaining, life-supporting and certain implantable devices, or new devices which have not been found substantially equivalent to legally marketed class I or class II devices). The Company is classified as a manufacturer of class III medical devices. Current SFDA enforcement policy prohibits the marketing of approved medical devices for unapproved uses.
Before a new device can be introduced into the market in China, the manufacturer generally must obtain SFDA marketing clearance through clinical trials. Since the company is classified as a manufacturer of Class III medical devices, the company must carry out all clinical trials in pre-selected SFDA approved hospitals.
Manufacturers of medical devices for marketing in China are required to adhere to GMP requirements. Enforcement of GMP requirements has increased significantly in the last several years and the SFDA has publicly stated that compliance will be more strictly scrutinized. From time to time the SFDA has made changes to the GMP and other requirements that increase the cost of compliance. Changes in existing laws or requirements or adoption of new laws or requirements could have a material adverse effect on the company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that the company will not incur significant costs to comply with applicable laws and requirements in the future or that applicable laws and requirements will not have a material adverse effect upon the company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Regulations regarding the development, manufacturing and sale of the company’s products are subject to change. The company cannot predict the impact, if any, that such changes might have on its business, financial condition and results of operations.
Results of Operations
The “Results of Operations” discussed in this section merely reflect the information and results of the Company for the period from January 25, 2002 (Shenzhen Changhua’s date of inception) to January 31, 2009.
Revenues
The Company is in its development stage and does not have any revenue. The management team is continuously looking for fundraising possibilities for product improvement, machinery upgrades, facility expansions, continuous research and development, and sales and marketing preparation.
Our facility is located in Shenzhen, China which is built to meet the GMP standards. Our facility covers about 865 square meters, which includes the combined facilities of offices, laboratories, and workshops. There is one production line for the PA Screw and another production line for the PA Binding Wire. The annual production capabilities of each production line are 100,000 pieces for PA Screw, and 240,000 packs for the PA Binding Wires. Both production lines, at their maximum production capacity, is capable of generating approximately USD $27,000,000 in annual revenue.
Estimate current production lines in full capacity | | |
| Output Quantity (Max.) | Price at ex-factory (U$) | Total Turnover (U$) |
PA Screw | 100,000 | (piece) | 150 | | 15,000,000 |
PA Binding Wire | 240,000 | (pack) | 50 | | 12,000,000 |
| | | | Total: | 27,000,000 |
The Company will market its products through a hybrid sales force comprised of a managed network of independent regional distributors/sales agents (80%) and direct sales representatives (20%) in China.
There are two ways the company will generate revenue, 1) through our nationwide and regional distributors and 2) through our direct manufacturing sales.
Marketing and Sales Goals:
1) | First quarter of 2010: $1,579,500 USD in revenues; Distribution of our product in approximately 32 hospitals immediately following SFDA approval. |
2) | Second quarter 2010: $2,754,000 USD revenues; Distribution of our product in approximately 56 hospitals. |
3) | Third quarter 2010: $5,062,500 USD revenues; Distribution of our product in approximately 105 hospitals. |
4) | Fourth quarter 2010: $9,720,000 USD revenues; Distribution of our product in approximately 210 hospitals. |
In general, we estimate that the Company will distribute product to a total of 210 hospitals and generate total revenues of USD $19,116,000 in the year 2010. We also expect a continuous increase of affiliated hospitals and anticipate large increases in revenue due to marketing results of the PA Screw in China and the utilization of the Company’s secured funding to bring the remaining family of self-reinforced, re-absorbable PA products to market.
China’s Marketing Analysis and Sales Strategy:
We have established long term relationships with many hospitals and national distributors in China. Ms. WANG, Hui, the Company’s CEO, has over 20 years sales experience in medical distribution. She will be in charge of our sales programs. Professor LIU, Shangli, our chief medical advisor, is one of the highest ranked orthopedic doctors in China as well as being highly renowned in the rest of the world. He will assist the Company in nationwide product promotion and joint projects with associated academic institutions and medical schools.
During product development and clinical trial stages we developed close relationships with many major national hospitals. We expect these relationships to boost our revenue generation following SFDA final approval. In order to better serve our customers, including hospitals, distributors, patients and the general public, the Company will set up Regional Service Offices to provide technical support, product information, and customer aid service.
China’s market for PA devices depends on 3 major conditions:
- Patients
- Advanced technology level
- Performance and price of the materials
The demand for internal fixation medical devices has rapidly increased during the last decade. Total market sales have increased more than 15% each year. There are over 1 million bone fractures in patients in China requiring about 4 million bone bolts/screws each year. Research shows that in the next 10 years, China will have a booming aging population and the population in China will continue to increase. New and improved medical technology will continue to rapidly grow throughout hospitals in China, and material optimization and product pricing is expected to directly stimulate increased sales.
The Company has advantages and more opportunities over others competitors due to:
| - | No other similar patent registrations in China. |
| - | We are the only company qualified and permitted to perform PA clinical trials by SFDA |
| - | We have a timing advantage over other companies in China which would have to go through the preclinical testing for the SFDA permit on clinical trials. |
| - | Under existing regulations by SFDA, it will take at least 3 years for clinical trials. |

In general, technological advancements and the marketing potential within Asia are the biggest factors in driving significant growth within the global orthopedic devices market. Another major factor that positively influences this market is the growing number of aging baby boomers with active lifestyles. This sector represents a large portion of the total population.
Research and Development
There is substantial research and development (R&D) activity in the market indicating a favorable growth trend. While revenues for active lifestyle participants registered a compound annual growth rate (CAGR)
of 17.4 percent for the period 2002-2006; R&D expenditure for the same period recorded a higher growth of 18.4 percent. Increasing R&D expenditure is considered a key indicator of the future direction of the orthopedic market as it points to sustained technological development and innovation.
The Company believes that Asia holds tremendous growth potential for orthopedic device manufacturers due to its fundamental population advantage. Asia accounts for more than 50 percent of the population in the world, but its share of the global orthopedic devices market is comparatively low at approximately 10 percent. Within the region, Japan contributes to a majority of market revenues, indicating large potential for growth in relatively under-penetrated countries such as China and India.
In future periods, we expect research and development expenses to grow as we continue to invest in basic research, clinical trials, product development and in our intellectual property.
Finance Costs
As of January 31, 2009, a stockholder and a related party had loaned a total of $368,455 to the Company as unsecured loans repayable on demand and interest is charged at 7% per annum on the amount due. Total interest expenses on advances from a stockholder and a related party accrued for the three months ended January 31, 2009 and 2008 and for the period from September 25, 2002 (inception) through January 31, 2009 are $5,117, $0 and $10,670, respectively. As of January 31, 2009, a director and a related company had loaned a total of $641,596 to the Company as an unsecured loan repayable on demand and imputed interest is computed at 5% per annum on the amount due. Total imputed interest expenses recorded as additional paid-in capital amounted to $8,056, $7,384 and $125,128 for the three months ended January 31, 2009 and 2008 and for the period from January 25, 2002 (inception) through January 31, 2009, respectively.
Net Loss
The net loss for the three months ended January 31, 2009 and 2008 and for the period from September 25, 2002 (inception) through January 31, 2009 are $129,189, $42,413 and $1,190,002 respectively. We are in Clinical Trial phase and do not have a SFDA permit to produce, market or sell in China. We therefore do not have any revenue from inception to January 31, 2009 but have to incur operating expenses for the upkeep of the Company and the clinical trials.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of January 31, 2009, a stockholder and a related party had loaned a total of $368,455 to the Company as unsecured loans repayable on demand and interest is computed at 7% per annum on the amount due. As of January 31, 2009, a director and a related company had loaned a total of $641,596 to the Company as an unsecured loan repayable on demand and imputed interest is computed at 5% per annum on the amount due. Total imputed interest expenses recorded as additional paid-in capital amounted to $8,056, $7,384 and $125,128 for the three months ended January 31, 2009 and 2008 and for the period from September 25, 2002 (inception) through January 31, 2009, respectively.
We had a working capital deficit of $981,590 as of January 31, 2009 compared to a working capital deficit of $831,167 as of October 31, 2008. Our working capital deficit increased as a result of the fact that we are in Clinical Trial phase and do not have a SFDA permit to produce, market or sell in China. We had no revenues during the period and that our sole source of financing came in the form of a loan from our related parties and stockholders.
Cash Flows
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities.
Net cash used in operating activities was $98,261 in the three months ended January 31, 2009. This amount was attributable primarily to the net loss after adjustment for non-cash items, such as depreciation, imputed interest on advances from a stockholder and a related party, and others like decrease in other receivables and prepaid expenses.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities.
We recorded $6,146 net cash used in investing activities in the three months ended January 31, 2009. This amount reflected purchases of property and equipment, primarily for research and development to our facilities.
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities.
Net cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended January 31, 2009 was $89,926, which represented advances from related parties.
Operating Capital and Capital Expenditure Requirements
Our ability to continue as a going concern and support the commercialization of current products is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional financing in the near term. We anticipate that such funding will be in the form of equity financing from sales of our common stock. However, there is no assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund our business plan should we decide to proceed. We anticipate continuing to rely on advances from our related parties and stockholders in order to continue to fund our business operations
We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents at January 31, 2009, will be insufficient to meet our cash needs. The management is actively pursuing additional funding and strategic partners, which will enable the Company to implement our business plan, business strategy, to continue research and development, clinical trials or further development that may arise.
We intend to spend more to support the commercialization of current products and on research and development activities, including new products development, regulatory and compliance, clinical studies, and the enhancement and protection of our intellectual property portfolio.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our investors.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including but not limited to those related to income taxes and impairment of long-lived assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions and factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Based on our ongoing review, we plan to adjust to our judgments and estimates where facts and circumstances dictate. Actual results could differ from our estimates.
We believe the following critical accounting policies are important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results and require our management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for additions, major renewals and betterments are capitalized and expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis, less estimated residual value over the assets estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Plant and machinery 5 Years
Motor vehicles 5 Years
Office equipment 5 Years
Office Improvement 5 Years
In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the impairment or disposal of Long-Lived Assets", long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. For purposes of evaluating the recoverability of long-lived assets, the recoverability test is performed using undiscounted net cash flows related to the long- lived assets. The Company reviews long-lived assets to determine that carrying values are not impaired.
| 3. | Fair value of financial instruments |
SFAS No. 107, "Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments. The carrying amounts of other receivables, prepaid expenses, amounts due from related parties, other payables and accrued liabilities and due to related parties approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of the instruments. The management of the Company is of the opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial statements.
Government grant represents a subsidy from the local government and is unconditional. The Company recognizes the grant upon receipt from the local government and is accounted for as
an offset of research and development expenses.
The Company accounts for income taxes under the SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
| 6. | Research and Development |
Research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed as incurred.
| 7. | Foreign currency translation |
The financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries denominated in currencies other than US $ are translated into US $ using the closing rate method. The balance sheet items are translated into US $ using the exchange rates at the respective balance sheet dates. The capital and various reserves are translated at historical exchange rates prevailing at the time of the transactions while income and expenses items are translated at the average exchange rate for the year. All exchange differences are recorded within equity.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141R”). SFAS 141R establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the goodwill acquired. SFAS 141R also establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business combination. This statement is effective for use beginning January 1, 2009. The Company does not expect adoption of SFAS 141R will have a material impact on its financial position and results of operations.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). This statement improves the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting standards that require the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent and the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the non-controlling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income, changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary be accounted for consistently, when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained non-controlling equity investment in the former subsidiary be initially measured at fair value, entities provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests
of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners. SFAS 160 affects those entities that have an outstanding non-controlling interest in one or more subsidiaries or that deconsolidate a subsidiary. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company does not expect adoption of SFAS 160 will have a material effect on its financial position and results of operations.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (SFAS 161). This statement is intended to improve transparency in financial reporting by requiring enhanced disclosures of an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging activities and their effects on the entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 applies to all derivative instruments within the scope of SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (SFAS 133) as well as related hedged items, bifurcated derivatives, and non-derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments. Entities with instruments subject to SFAS 161 must provide more robust qualitative disclosures and expanded quantitative disclosures. SFAS 161 is effective prospectively for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application permitted. The Company does not expect adoption of SFAS 161 will have a material effect on its financial position and results of operations.
In May 2008, the FASB released SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of non-governmental entities that presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. SFAS No. 162 will be effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the PCAOB amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The Company does not expect adoption of SFAS 162 will have a material effect on its financial position and results of operations.
In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60.” The scope of this Statement is limited to financial guarantee insurance (and reinsurance) contracts, as described in this Statement, issued by enterprises included within the scope of Statement 60. Accordingly, this Statement does not apply to financial guarantee contracts issued by enterprises excluded from the scope of Statement 60 or to some insurance contracts that seem similar to financial guarantee insurance contracts issued by insurance enterprises (such as mortgage guaranty insurance or credit insurance on trade receivables). This Statement also does not apply to financial guarantee insurance contracts that are derivative instruments included within the scope of FASB Statement No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” The Company does not expect adoption of SFAS 163 will have a material effect on its financial position and results of operations.
In October 2008, FASB issued FSP FAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active”, to clarify guidance on determining the fair value of a financial asset under SFAS No. 157 in a market that is not active. FSP FAS 157-3 was effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements had not been issued. The adoption of this statement effective January 30, 2008 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In November 2008, the Emerging Issues Task Force issued EITF No. 08 – 7, “Accounting for Defensive Intangible Assets” (“EITF 08 -7”) that clarifies accounting for defensive intangible assets subsequent to initial measurement. EITF 08 – 7 applies to acquired intangible assets which an entity has no intention of actively using, or intends to discontinue use of, the intangible asset but holds it (locks up) to prevent others from obtaining access to it (i.e., a defensive intangible asset). Under EITF 08 – 7, the Task Force reached a consensus that an acquired defensive asset should be accounted for as a separate unit of accounting (i.e., an asset separate from other assets of the acquirer); and the useful life assigned to an acquired defensive asset should be based on the period during which the asset would diminish in value. ETIF 08 – 7 is effective for defensive intangible assets acquired in fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company does not believe EITF 08 - 7 will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements
