REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
China YCT International Group, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of China YCT International Group, Inc. as of March 31, 2008 and 2007 and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of China YCT International Group, Inc. as of March 31, 2008 and 2007 and the results of its operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ORGANIZATION
China YCT International Group, Inc., formerly known as ItLinkz Group, Inc., Medical Technology & Innovations, Inc. and Southstar Productions, Inc. (the “Company” or “China YCT”), was incorporated in the State of Florida in January 1989.
On June 4, 2007 the Company entered into a Share Purchase and Merger Agreement dated June 1, 2007 with Landway Nano Bio-Tech, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Landway Nano”), and with Huaqin Zhou and Xiaojin Wang, two investors associated with Landway Nano. Landway Nano is a holding company that owns 100% of the registered capital of Shandong Spring Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (“Shandong Spring”), a corporation organized under the laws of The People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). On July 31, 2007, pursuant to the Share Purchase and Merger Agreement, Huaqin Zhou and Xiaojin Wang purchased 500 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock for $530,000. On September 28, 2007, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Landway Nano by issuing to the shareholders of Landway Nano an additional 500 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The 1,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were subsequently converted into 28,925,629 shares of common stock, representing 98.4% of the outstanding common shares. The Board of Directors of the Company also elected Mr.Yan Tinghe and Mr. Zhang Jirui, the executive officers of Shandong Spring Pharmaceutical, to serve as members of the Board, and they together elected Yan Tinghe to serve as the Chief Executive Officer and Zhang Jirui to serve as Chief Financial Officer of the Company.
As a result of these transactions, there was a change in control of the Company as the shareholders of Landway Nano became the majority shareholders of the Company.
For accounting purposes, the transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition under the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, Landway Nano was treated as the continuing entity for accounting purposes.
On November 23, 2007, the Company changed the name of the corporation from “Itlinkz Group, Inc.” to “China YCT International Group, Inc.”
China YCT, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Shandong Spring, is engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing and marketing gingko and other dietary supplement products in the PRC.
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, necessary for their fair presentation in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
MARCH 31, 2008 AND 2007
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of estimates
In preparing the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting year. Significant estimates, required by management, include the recoverability of long-lived assets and the valuation of inventories. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, Landway Nano and its wholly owned subsidiary Shandong Spring. All significant inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Cash and cash equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flow, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Accounts receivables
Accounts receivables are stated at net realizable value. Any allowance for doubtful accounts is established based on the management’s assessment of the recoverability of accounts and other receivables. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the realization of these receivables, including the current credit worthiness of each customer and the related aging analysis. The Company has no outstanding balance of account receivables for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 due to cash sales.
Inventories
Inventories are composed of raw materials and packing materials for manufacturing, work in process, and finished goods. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market with cost determined on a weighted average basis. Management compares the cost of inventory with the market value and an allowance is made for writing down the inventory to its market value, if lower than cost.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. The cost of an asset comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its present working condition and locations for its intended use. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-like method over the following useful lives:
Buildings and improvements 30-35 years
Machinery, equipment and automobiles 7-15 years
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Advance to suppliers
Advance to suppliers represent the payments made and recorded in advance for goods and services received. The Company makes advances to certain vendors’ inventory purchases, construction projects and equipment purchases. The advance to suppliers totaled $834,284 as of March 31, 2008.
Revenue recognition
The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104. Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are recorded as customer deposits.
Unearned revenue

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Impairment of long-lived assets
Long-lived assets, which include property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted 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 assets. Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable.
Income taxes
The Company accounts for income tax under the provisions of SFAS No.109 "Accounting for Income Taxes", which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of the events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred income taxes are recognized for all significant temporary differences between tax and financial statements bases of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are established against net deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. There were no deferred tax amounts at March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
The Company is governed by the Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China concerning the private-run enterprises, which are subject to tax at a statutory rate of 25% and were, until January 2008, subject to tax at a statutory rate of 33% (30% state income tax plus 3% local income tax) on its taxable income. The company recorded income tax provisions of $1,534,620 and $90,775 for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
Value-added tax
Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of a Value-Added Tax (“VAT”). All of the Company’s products that are sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 4% of the gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing their finished product. The Company did not have any recorded VAT Payable or VAT receivable net of payments in the financial statements. The VAT tax return is usually filed offsetting the payables against the receivables.
Research and development
Research and development costs are related primarily to the Company developing its intellectual property. Research and development costs are expenses as incurred. The costs of material and equipment that are acquired or constructed for research and development activities and have alternative future uses are classified as plant and equipment and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
The research and development expense for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 was $141,241 and $-0-, respectively.
Advertising costs
Advertising costs in newspaper and televisions are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred advertising costs of $501,729 and $3,848 of for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
Mailing and handling costs
The Company accounts for mailing and handling fees in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-10 “Accounting for
Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs” (EITF Issue No. 00-10). For the year ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, the Company incurred $716,646 and $58,096 mailing and handling costs.
Earnings (loss) per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. There are no common stock equivalents available for dilution purposes as of March 31, 2008 and 2007.
Risks and uncertainties
The Company’s operations are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC’s economy.
The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in the North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environments and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.
Fair value of financial instruments
The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses, tax payable, and other payable approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these items.
Foreign currency translation
The Company’s functional currency is the Renminbi (“RMB”). For financial reporting purposes, RMB has been translated into United States dollars ("USD") as the currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the reporting period. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of stockholders' equity as "Accumulated other comprehensive income". Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency translations are included in accumulated other comprehensive income. There is no significant fluctuation in exchange rate for the conversion of RMB to USD after the balance sheet date.
Translation adjustments resulting from this process amounted to $857,763 and $161,295 as of March 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The balance sheet amounts, with the exception of equity at March 31, 2008, were translated at 7.012 RMB to 1.00 US$ as compared to 7.7232 RMB to 1.00 US$ at March 31, 2007. The equity accounts were stated at their historical rate. The average translation rates applied to income statement accounts for the years ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 were 7.4590 RMB and 7.8992 RMB, respectively.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
New accounting pronouncements
In February 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (FAS 159). FAS 159 will become effective for the company on January 1, 2008. This standard permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and report unrealized gains and losses in earnings. Such accounting is optional and is generally to be applied instrument by instrument. The Company does not anticipate that the election, if any, of this fair-value option will have a material effect on results or operations or consolidated financial position.
In June 2007, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. EITF 07-3, “Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services Received for use in Future Research and Development Activities” (“FSP EITF 07-3”), which addresses whether nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services that used or rendered for research and development activities should be expensed when the advance payment is made or when the research and development activity has been performed. The Company has adopted FSP EITF 07-3 and expensed the research and development as it incurred.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160,“Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51” (“SFAS 160”), which establishes accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest and the valuation of retained non-controlling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. The Statement also establishes reporting requirements that provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company has not determined the effect that the application of SFAS 160 will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141(R), Business Combinations, was issued. SFAS No. 141R replaces SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations. SFAS 141R retains the fundamental requirements in SFAS 141 that the acquisition method of accounting (which SFAS 141 called the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. SFAS 141R requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions. This replaces SFAS 141’s cost-allocation process, which required the cost of an acquisition to be allocated to the individual assets acquired and
New accounting pronouncements (continued)
liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. SFAS 141R also requires the acquirer in a business combination achieved in stages (sometimes referred to as a step acquisition) to recognize the identifiable assets and liabilities, as well as the noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, at the full amounts of their fair values (or other amounts determined in accordance with SFAS 141R). SFAS 141R applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. An entity may not apply it before that date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that adopting SFAS No. 141R will have on its financial statements.
In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - An Amendment of SFAS No. 133” (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 seeks to improve financial reporting for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures regarding the impact on financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. To achieve this increased transparency, SFAS 161 requires (1) the disclosure of the fair value of derivative instruments and gains and losses in a tabular format; (2) the disclosure of derivative features that are credit risk-related; and (3) cross-referencing within the footnotes. SFAS 161 is effective on January 1, 2009. The Company is in the process of evaluating the new disclosure requirements under SFAS 161.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on net income or cash flows.
