In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820) Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. This pronouncement is an authoritative guidance to amend certain measurement and disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements to improve consistency with international reporting standards. In addition, ASU 2011-04 expanded the required disclosures around fair value measurements including (i) reporting the level in the fair value hierarchy used to value assets and liabilities which are not measured at fair value, but where fair value is disclosed, and (ii) qualitative disclosures about the sensitivity of Level 3 fair value measurements to changes in unobservable inputs used. This guidance is effective prospectively for public entities for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption by public entities prohibited, and is applicable to the Company’s fiscal year beginning October 1, 2012. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance, but does not expect its adoption will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (ASC 220) Presentation of Comprehensive Income (“ASU No. 2011-05”). This pronouncement is an authoritative guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income that will require a company to present components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement or in two separate, but consecutive statements. There are no changes to the components that are recognized in net income or other comprehensive income under current GAAP. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted.

11. Stock-Based Compensation-Continued
Under the 2012-2013 Plan, the Company granted 1,350,000 and 350,000 options to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at US$3.08 and US$3.38, respectively, on November 3, 2011. On each of November 3, 2012, November 3, 2013, November 3, 2014 and November 3, 2015, entitled employees are eligible to vest up to 1/4 of the total number of option awards. The percentage of such vesting is predetermined for each individual and tied to satisfaction of the target corporate net income and annual sales objectives, as well as attainment of each participant’s personal performance targets. Each option award that is vested will expire two years after its vesting date. The Company utilizes the lattice-binomial option-pricing model (“binomial model”) to estimate the fair value of new employee stock option grants. The Company’s determination of fair value of stock option awards on the date of grant using the binomial model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of variables. These variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, interest rates, option forfeitures and employee stock option exercise behaviors. The estimated weighted average fair value of awards was US$1.07 per option.
A summary of stock option activity is as follows:
| | | | | | | | Weighted | |
| | | | | Weighted | | | Average | |
| | Number of stock | | | Average | | | Remaining | |
| | options | | | Exercise Price | | | Contractual Life | |

Outstanding at June 30, 2012 | | | 1,700,000 | | | | 3.14 | | | | 4.00 | |
Exercisable at June 30, 2012 | | | 0 | | | | 0 | | | | | |
There was no option cancelled or exercised during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2012. As at June 30, 2012, the aggregated intrinsic value of options outstanding was US$1,374,000.
The weighted average estimated fair value of stock options granted during the nine months ended June 30, 2012 was determined using the binomial model with the following weighted average assumptions:
Term structure of risk-free interest rate | | | 0.42%~1.25% | |
Expected life | | | 4.5 years | |
Term structure of volatility | | | 44.70%~46.70% | |
Dividend yield | | | 0 | |
Weighted average estimated fair value per option | | | US$1.07 | |
The risk-free interest rate assumption for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility and implied volatility of the Company’s stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercises and employee termination within the valuation model. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts. The expected life of employee stock options represents the weighted average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding and is a derived output of the binomial model. The binomial model estimates employees’ exercise behavior based on the option’s remaining vested life and the extent to which the option is in-the-money. The binomial model estimates the probability of exercise as a function of these two variables based on the entire history of exercises and cancellations of all past option grants made by the Company.
The Company recorded stock-based compensation expenses included in selling, general and administrative expenses of US$384,569 and US$118,465 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively and US$1,129,392 and US$644,726 for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Management considered that the fair value of outstanding restricted share units approximates the market value of the Company’s common stock of US$3.95 per share as at June 30, 2012.
As of June 30, 2012, a cumulative total of 1,051,306 non-vested restricted stock units have been cancelled and a cumulative total of 411,132 restricted stock units were vested. The total fair value of restricted stock units vested during the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, was US$697,191 and US$536,726, respectively.

Legal proceedings - Between April 9 and April 27, 2012, three purported shareholder class actions were filed against the Company, its board of directors and its chief executive officer, Jianquan Li, in District Court, Clark County, Nevada. The three purported shareholder class actions were later consolidated and, on August 9, 2012, the Company received a consolidated complaint (the "Consolidated Complaint"), wherein a purported class action claim was made against the Company, its board of directors and its chief executive officer, Jianquan Li (the “Class Action”). The Class Action arises from Mr. Li’s initial non-binding proposal on April 2, 2012 to acquire all outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock not owned or controlled by him or his wife in a “going private” transaction. The Class Action alleges that the Company’s board of directors have breached their fiduciary duties to the Company as a result of the proposed “going private” transaction, and that the Company has aided and abetted those alleged breaches. The Company has not yet responded to the Class Action, but believes the allegations therein are without merit. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously against the claims.
The Company has not yet been required to respond formally to this lawsuit. In addition, the Consolidated Complaint does not specify any amount of damages to be sought by plaintiffs. Because this matter is in a very early stage, the Company cannot determine whether or not an adverse outcome is probable, nor can it provide a reasonable estimate of any potential losses related to this matter. While the Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the Class Action and intends to defend it vigorously, an adverse outcome in this matter could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
Other than the above, the Company is currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that it believes it will have a material adverse affect on its business, financial condition or operating results. In addition, to the Company’s knowledge, no director, officer or affiliate of the Company, and no owner of record or beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Company’s securities, or any associate of any such director, officer or security holder, is a party adverse to the Company or has a material interest adverse to the Company in reference to pending litigation.

13. Fair Value Measurement
FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurement. FASB ASC topic 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires the use of observable market data, when available, and prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value in the following categories:
Level 1 - Quoted unadjusted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in market that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which all observable inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.
Level 3 - Model-derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable, including assumptions developed by the Company.
The financial instruments of the Company are cash and cash equivalents, restricted bank deposits, restricted broker margin account, accounts receivable, deposits and other receivable, other current assets, bank loans, accounts payable and other current liabilities are valued at fair values due to their short-term nature. These financial assets and liabilities are classified as either Level 1 or Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011. Fair value of the amounts due to or from affiliates cannot be readily determined because of the nature of the related party transactions.
Held-to-maturity investments - The Company’s held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortized cost. The fair value of held-to-maturity investments is approximated to the carrying value, based on the quoted prices for securities with similar characteristics and other observable inputs such as interest rates that are observable at commonly quoted intervals can be obtained directly from the commercial bank and such fair value measurement is considered as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
The Company uses financial instruments to manage its exposures to movements in foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. The use of these financial instruments modifies the Company’s exposure to these risks with the goal of reducing the risk of cost to the Company. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes, nor does it hold or issue leveraged derivative financial instruments.
Foreign exchange derivatives - The Company’s operations are exposed to market risk primarily due to changes in currency exchange rates. In order to manage such risks so as to reduce volatility in earnings and cash flows, the Company enters into several foreign exchange forward contracts with a commercial bank to hedge for future trade receipts in U.S. dollars against RMB. No foreign exchange forward contracts were outstanding as of June 30, 2012. The Company’s foreign exchange forward contracts are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 since the quoted prices of these foreign currency forward contracts can be obtained directly from the commercial bank.

Commodity derivatives - Cotton is the primary raw material used to manufacture many of the Company’s products and is purchased at market prices. Starting from October 2010, the Company uses commodity financial instruments to manage the risk of cotton purchase cost. Although the commodity financial instruments are economic hedges of specified risks, they are not designated or accounted for as hedging instruments. The commodity financial instruments are valued at fair value. The commodity derivatives require collateral, referred to as margin, in the form of cash. As of June 30, 2012, the Company’s restricted broker margin account was US$475,106, net of unrealized gain of US$Nil. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the fair value of commodity financial instruments decreased by US$Nil and US$73,738, respectively, which were recorded in other operating income. The total outstanding cotton futures contracts amounted to US$Nil as of June 30, 2012. The Company’s commodity financial instruments are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820 since the quoted unadjusted prices of these commodity financial instruments are available in active markets.
The realized gain for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 on commodity financial instruments was US$92,791 and US$65,037, respectively. The realized gain for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 was US$167,467 and the realized loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2011 was US$1,694,632.

14. Operating Risk
Concentrations of credit risk, major customers and suppliers - A substantial percentage of the Company’s sales are made to one customer, Sakai Shoten Co., Ltd, and are typically sold on an open account basis. The sales to Sakai Shoten Co., Ltd. accounted for 9.93% and 11.39% of the total net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and 9.09% and 12.07% of the total net sales for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
A substantial percentage of the Company’s accounts receivable are from three customers with balances that represented the following percentages of total accounts receivable at June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively: Heng’an Group Ltd, 14.14% and 8.40%; Molnlycke Health Care AB, 9.98% and 15.14%; and Tyco Healthcare Co., Ltd, 9.95% and 10.05%. The Company has not experienced any significant difficulty in collecting its accounts receivable in the past and is not aware of any financial difficulties being experienced by its major customers.
Interest rate risk - The interest rates and terms of repayment of bank and other borrowings ranged from 6.36% to 7.87%. Other financial assets and liabilities do not have material interest rate risk.
Credit risk - In order to reduce the risk of inability to collect accounts receivable, the Company entered into an insurance policy with China Export & Credit Insurance Corporation effective on January 1, 2012. This insurance policy will expire on December 31, 2012 and is automatically renewable subject to a one month written notice given by either party. The maximum insurance coverage from China Export & Credit Insurance Corporation is US$2.5 million.
Foreign currency risk - The value of the Renminbi, the main currency used in the PRC, fluctuates and is affected by, among other things, changes in China's political and economic conditions. In addition, the Renminbi is not readily convertible into US dollars or other foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions continue to take place either through the Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rate quoted by the People’s Bank of China. The conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies such as the US dollar has been generally based on rates set by the People's Bank of China, which are set daily based on the previous day's interbank foreign exchange market rates and current exchange rates on the world financial markets. On June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, the exchange rates of RMB against the US dollar were 6.3249 and 6.3549, respectively; the appreciation of RMB against the US dollar was 0.47%. On June 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, the exchange rates of RMB against Euro were 7.8710 and 8.6328 respectively. This floating exchange rate, and any appreciation of the Renminbi that may result from such rate, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and financial results.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION
| ITEM 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. |
Between April 9 and April 27, 2012, three purported shareholder class actions were filed against the Company, its board of directors and its chief executive officer, Jianquan Li, in District Court, Clark County, Nevada. The three purported shareholder class actions were later consolidated and, on August 9, 2012, the Company received a consolidated complaint (the "Consolidated Complaint"), wherein a purported class action claim was made against the Company, its board of directors and its chief executive officer, Jianquan Li (the “Class Action”). The Class Action arises from Mr. Li’s initial non-binding proposal on April 2, 2012 to acquire all outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock not owned or controlled by him or his wife in a “going private” transaction. The Class Action alleges that the Company’s board of directors have breached their fiduciary duties to the Company as a result of the proposed “going private” transaction, and that the Company has aided and abetted those alleged breaches. The Company has not yet responded to the Class Action, but believes the allegations therein are without merit. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously against the claims.
The Company has not yet been required to respond formally to this lawsuit. In addition, the Consolidated Complaint does not specify any amount of damages to be sought by plaintiffs. Because this matter is in a very early stage, the Company cannot determine whether or not an adverse outcome is probable, nor can it provide a reasonable estimate of any potential losses related to this matter. While the Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the Class Action and intends to defend it vigorously, an adverse outcome in this matter could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
Other than the above, the Company is currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that it believes it will have a material adverse affect on its business, financial condition or operating results. In addition, to the Company’s knowledge, no director, officer or affiliate of the Company, and no owner of record or beneficial owner of more than five percent of the Company’s securities, or any associate of any such director, officer or security holder, is a party adverse to the Company or has a material interest adverse to the Company in reference to pending litigation.
The list of exhibits required to be filed as exhibits to this Report are listed under the “Exhibit Index,” which is incorporated herein by reference.
