BUSINESS Change in Fiscal Year On March 26, 2010, our board of directors approved a change in
our fiscal year end from October 31 to March 31, effective immediately. The
fiscal year end change resulted in a five month reporting period from November
1, 2009 to March 31, 2010. As a result, this Form 10-K is a transition report
and includes financial information for the transition period from November 1,
2009 to March 31, 2010. Subsequent to this report, our annual reports on Form
10-K will cover the fiscal year beginning on April 1 and ending on March 31.
Overview We are the first mover and a leading producer and distributor
of premium goat milk formula products for infants, toddlers, young children, and
adults in China. Our current formula product lines are targeted at the premium
segment of the dairy market and health-conscious consumers. Headquartered in
Tianjin, we sell and distribute our products through a nationwide network of
retail points across China in 23 provinces and municipalities including
infant-maternity chain stores, supermarkets (including multinational chains) and
drug stores, as well as catalogue sales and a dedicated online store at
Taobao.com. We are vertically integrated and source raw goat milk from our
proprietary dairy farms as well as neighboring goat dairy farmers on a long-term
contract basis in milk collection centers, which helps us maintain quality
control. History and Corporate Structure We were originally incorporated in Delaware in 1986 under the
name of Commercial Ventures Ltd. Our name was changed to FIN U.S.A., Inc. in
1987, and in 1993 to I/NET, INC. On April 15, 2007, our name was changed to
Ardmore Holding Corporation and in September 2008, following the reverse merger
described below, our name was changed to Yayi International Inc. In June 2008, we entered into and completed a series of
transactions pursuant to which we, among other things, (i) raised gross proceeds
of $1.3 million from the sales of our convertible notes and warrants to certain
investors, or the 2008 Investors, and (ii) acquired, through a reverse
subsidiary merger with Charleston Industrial Co. Limited, or Charleston.
Charleston owns 100% equity interest in Tianjin Yayi. As a result of this
reverse merger, we became the indirect owner of Tianjin Yayi. On November 24,
2009, we and the 2008 Investors entered into a Settlement Agreement pursuant to
which, each of the 2008 Investors converted its own entire principal amount of
and accrued interest on all of the notes it holds into an aggregate 1,296,275
shares of the Companys common stock at a conversion price of $1.08 per
share. In August 2008, we acquired Fuping Milkgoat for approximately $620,000. Fuping Milkgoat purchases raw goat
milk and processes it into powder. On June 18, 2009, we entered into a series A preferred stock
purchase agreement, or the Stock Purchase Agreement with Global Rock Stone
Industrial Ltd, a BVI company, or Global Rock, Charleston, Tianjin Yayi, the
individuals named thereto and an accredited investor, SAIF Partners III L.P., or
SAIF. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, we issued and sold to SAIF
1,530,612 shares of the Companys Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per
share, or the Series A Preferred Stock, at a price per share of $9.80 for an
aggregate purchase price of $15.0 million. The Series A Preferred Stock is
convertible into the Companys common stock at an initial conversion price at
$0.98 per share, which conversion price is subject to stock split,
recapitalization and other anti-dilution protection, as well as adjustments
based on the Companys financial performance. In connection with the above private placement transaction, on
June 16, 2009, we filed a Certificate of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock
with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or the Certificate, which
became effective upon filing. Pursuant to the Certificate, there are
1,530,612 shares of Series A Preferred Stock authorized. The holders of the
Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive non-cumulative dividends, when,
as and if declared by the Board. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be
converted into the Companys common stock at the option of the holders of the
Series A Preferred Stock in whole or in part at any time at an initial
conversion price of $0.98, subject to future adjustments set forth in the
Certificate. -2- The following chart reflects our organizational structure as of
the date of this report. Industry Growth Drivers Chinas large population, growing disposable income and rapidly
changing consumer habits create a favorable market for premium dairy products.
According to a report by Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Chinas per capita dairy
consumption remains one of the lowest globally, merely 18.3kg in 2008 which is
1/7 of the consumption in US. Industry professionals forecast that the per
capita dairy consumption in China could reach 27kg by 2015 and 36kg by 2020
driven by increasing population and higher per capita consumption. The prospects for Chinas infant formula market look
particularly promising with on average 17 million newborns each year. The
country may be experiencing a small baby boom due to an exception to Chinas
one-child policy; parents who are both single children of their respective
families are allowed to have a second child. According to Euromonitor, the
infant formula market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of
23.1% between 2008 and 2013. In general, the one-child policy makes Chinese
parents inclined to prioritize their childrens health over other consumption,
which supports the market for premium infant formula products. The Case of Goat Milk According to China Dairy Association, goat milk can potentially
account for 3% of Chinas RMB200 billion (approximately $29 billion) dairy
market. We, with our broad product portfolio and first mover position in goat
milk production and distribution, are well positioned to take advantage of this
increased demand. -3- Chinas government has been promoting milk consumption since
the mid 1990s because of its beneficial nutritional properties. The Eleventh
Five-Year Plan (2006-2011) encourages every Chinese citizen to consume 0.5 kg of
dairy products per day. The favorable government policies coupled with the
prevalence of sensitivity towards cow milk products in China further support the
demand for goat milk. Independent studies (for example Prosser et al (2003) and
Bevilacqua et al (2001)) demonstrate that goat milk has a beneficial protein
structure compared with cow milk, facilitating absorption of nutrients in goat
milk by the human digestive system, which may make goat milk a more suitable
alternative for Chinese consumers who have experienced problems with digesting
cow milk. Compared with cow milk, the molecules of lactose and fat
globules are smaller in goat milk, making goat milk more easily absorbed by
individuals who are sensitive to milk products. Moreover, lower acidity, the
concentration of medium-chain triglyceride fatty acids, and the absence of
r-casein, the main allergen found in cow milk, improve the digestibility of goat
milk, making it an appealing substitute for cow milk. Post Melamine Scandal Era In 2008, the reputation of Chinas dairy industry was severely
damaged as melamine, a toxic chemical used to manufacture plastics, was
discovered in products from 22 domestic dairy producers. In response, the
Chinese government issued the Regulation on the Supervision and Administration
of the Quality and Safety of Dairy Products, which encourages stricter national
standards for the quality and safety of dairy products, heightens sanitary
requirements, and imposes more responsibility on dairy processors to control the
sources of raw milk. In addition, a Food Safety Act has been implemented in June
2009 to revise problems related to the scandal. Dairy processors are strongly
encouraged to implement HACCP or GMP quality certification systems. Further
efforts to align the interests of different parties including farmers,
processors, dairies and consumers are underway. Following the scandal, the Ministry of Agriculture stipulated
that only one milk processing plant be allowed on a ranch within the radius of
60 kilometers. New projects must reach processing capacity of 200 tons of raw
milk per day based on raw milk sources proprietary to or controlled by the dairy
processor, and raw milk must contribute to no less than 30% of total processing
capacity. The added capacity in expansion projects must reach at least 100 tons
of raw milk per day, and 75% of the existing processing capacity must be based
on raw milk sources proprietary to or controlled by the dairy processor. With the growing awareness and lingering safety concerns about
cow milk, we are well positioned to take advantage of the unprecedented
opportunity to cement our presence in the goat milk and premium infant formula
sectors. Dairy Industry Access Conditions and Policies In March 2008, the PRC National Development and Reform
Commission, or the NDRC, promulgated the Access Conditions for Dairy Products
Processing Industry, or the Access Conditions. The Access Conditions set forth
the conditions an entity must satisfy in order to engage, or continue to engage,
in the dairy products processing business, including technique and equipment,
product quality, energy and water consumption, sanitation and environmental
protection, as well as production safety. Any new or continuing dairy products
processing projects or enterprises will be required to meet all the conditions
and requirements set forth in the Access Conditions. For projects or enterprises
that already commenced operations before the promulgation of the Access
Conditions, improvements or rectification actions may need to be taken in order
to have such projects or enterprises meet the conditions within two years of the
effective date of the Access Conditions on April 1, 2010. The Access Conditions also set forth some requirements relating
to the location, processing capacity and raw milk source for any new or
continuing dairy products processing project or enterprise. Any new or
continuing dairy products processing projects or enterprises that fail to meet
the requirements will not be able to procure land, license, permits, loan
facility and electricity necessary for the processing of dairy products, and
those projects or enterprises already in operation before the promulgation of
the Access Conditions will be deregistered and ordered to shut down if they fail
to meet the conditions within a two-year rectification period. In May 2008, the NDRC issued the Dairy Industry Policies, or
the Policies. According to the PRC government, the Policies are the first set of
comprehensive government policies on the PRC dairy industry, covering a broad
range of matters such as industry planning, closure of inefficient
capacity, milk supply, quality control and product safety, environment
protection and promotion of milk consumption. Moreover, the Policies provide
conditions that new entrants to the dairy industry must meet in addition to the
conditions set forth in the Access Conditions. -4- Our Competitive Strengths We believe that our success to date and potential for future
growth can be attributed to a combination of our strengths, including the
following: First Mover Advantage. Goat milk is emerging as an ideal
substitute to cow milk as consumers are increasingly aware of its benefits
particularly for infants, who prefer a dairy product with a nutritional and
molecular composition closer to human milk. We are the first Chinese company
to produce, sell and distribute goat milk formula products throughout China
since 2001. Dedication to Quality Control. We source raw milk from our
proprietary dairy farms and other goat dairy farmers on a long-term contract
basis in Shaanxi Province in northwestern China, where dairy goats are
abundant and of optimal breed for milk production. Vertically integrated
production and the ability to control raw goat milk sources enable us to
secure raw material supply, and thus maintain our leading position in the
market. Proprietary dairy farm and goat milk collection centers have also
benefited us following the 2008 cow milk scandal, when melamine was found in
various cow milk-based infant formula products in China. In the wake of the
scandal, Chinese food safety authorities imposed stricter industry regulation
regarding supply chain quality control and expansion plans for dairy
processors, which has benefited established players like us. Our facilities
are ISO 9001 and HACCP certified. High-end Products. We have been a leading producer and
distributor of goat milk formula products for infants, toddlers, young
children, and adults in China. Our current formula product lines are targeted
at the premium segment of the dairy market and health-conscious consumers.
Given goat milks nutritional and molecular composition closer to human milk
as well as the scarcity of goat milk for dairy goats have limited production
capacity when compared to dairy cows, our goat milk products are positioned as
a much more highly valued dairy products in the market. Experienced Management. Our senior management team has
extensive operating experience and industry knowledge. Ms. Li Liu, who is our
founder, Chairwoman, CEO and President, started the Companys goat milk
business since 2001. She has been a pioneer in the industry. Mr. Fung Shek,
who has served as our Director, Vice President and Deputy General Manager, was
deeply involved in the goat milk business while at P&G Taiwan. He was
formerly Director of Sales for P&G Taiwan. Our Growth Strategy As a leading goat milk producer and distributor in China, we
believe we are well positioned to capitalize on future industry growth in China.
We are dedicated to providing healthy and high quality products to our
consumers. We will implement the following strategic plans to take advantage of
industry opportunities and our competitive strengths: Focus on brand development. In order to manifest our
position as Chinas leader in goat milk products and to educate consumers
about the benefits of goat milk, we plan to invest in strengthening our brand
equity. In November 2009, we engaged US-based branding and strategic
positioning agency, Trout & Partners to enhance our brand position and
build Milk Goat into a household brand in China. As part of the strategy, we
intend to target more supermarkets with our products. We believe that our
products enjoy a reputation for high quality among those familiar with them,
and our products routinely pass government and internal quality inspections.
We have increased our advertising expenses and plan to continue advertising on
China Central Television, or CCTV in order to market our products as premium
goat milk powder products. We believe many consumers in China tend to regard
higher prices as indicative of higher quality and higher nutritional value,
and as a result consumers with higher disposable incomes are increasingly
inclined to purchase higher priced products, particularly in the areas of
infant formula and nutritional products. -5- Increase production capacity. We are in the process of
increasing our production capacity for goat milk products by more than 400%.
We broke ground on a new spray drying processing facility in Shaanxi Province
in November 2009, which is expected to commence production by the second half
year of 2011 and become the largest raw goat milk processing base in China. We
have also invested in a new packing facility and warehouse in Tianjin, which
is expected to go into production in the fourth quarter of 2010. While
increasing production, we also develop our product portfolio in order to
penetrate additional consumer segments. Expand distribution network. We sell and distribute our
products through a network of approximately 3,800 retail points including
infant-maternity chain stores, supermarkets (including multinational chains)
and drug stores, as well as catalogue sales across China. The infant-maternity
chain stores currently contribute to the bulk of our sales efforts. Beginning
in 2010, we expect to expand aggressively into the supermarkets segment as
well as online sales through our online store on Taobao.com. Focus on quality control. We continue to improve our product
inspection procedures and monitor our raw milk suppliers in order to ensure
the high quality of our products. We believe we can maintain our production of
high quality dairy products by continuing to enter exclusive contracts with
dairy farmers who can deliver quality goat milk, strengthening our
company-owned large-scale dairy farm operations, expanding our company-owned
collection stations and production facilities, and employing comprehensive
testing and quality control measures. We are also, as described under Liquidity and Capital
Resources, engaged in expanding our administrative, processing and warehousing
facilities. See also Item 2. Properties. Our Goat Milk Powder Products We currently manufacture and distribute goat milk powder
products. For the five months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, goat milk powder
products accounted for approximately 100% and 92.7% of our net sales,
respectively. Our powder products are sold throughout most of China. We began
selling powder products in Tianjin and Beijing in 2001, in Southern China in
2004 and Northern China in 2006. Since the end of 2009, we have been working
with Trout & Partners to streamline our product portfolio and refine our
brand image in order to position and strengthen our Milk Goat brand as the
premium goat milk brand throughout China. We have restructured our original
product portfolio of dozens of products and specifications and refined our
marketing strategy. Our new product portfolio consists of ten formula products
under the Milk Goat brand with only one product specification of 600 grams
with upgraded formula. Our principal goat milk powder products may generally be
categorized as follows: powder products for infants
aged from 0 - 6 months old, babies 6 - 12 months old; powder products for toddlers aged from
1-3 years old, pre-schools from 3-7 years old; and powder products for different target groups:
students, seniors, women, men, pre-and post-natal women and gift packaging In addition, we still sell our original goat milk powder
products. Our principal original goat milk powder product lines may generally be
categorized as follows: Powder products for infants aged 0 - 6 months old, babies 6 - 12 months
old, toddlers from 1 - 3 years old, pre-schoolers from 3-7 years old and
children, teens and adolescents. Powders targeted to or formulated for pre-and
post-natal women. Powder products for those interested in maintaining general health and well
being, enhancing beauty, inducing restfulness and reducing eye fatigue. Sugar-free goat milk powder products for those who desire to regulate their
sugar intake. Powder products for health conscious adults. -6- Most of our goat milk products are formulated through the
inclusion of supplements such as vitamins, calcium, iron, selenium, chromium and
omega-3 fatty acids, as needed to address the nutritional or health needs of the
consumer. Raw Materials and Suppliers We currently own ten dairy goat farms, which are located in
Shaanxi Province. However, most of our supply of raw goat milk come from Saanen
dairy goats raised on individual and collective goat farms in Weinan City in
Chinas Shaanxi Province. This province is one of the three largest goat milk
producing areas in China; an area especially conducive to the production of goat
milk, with a reputation as one of the most fertile and agriculturally rich
regions in China in which to raise dairy goats. Through Weinan Milkgoat, we
entered into long-term supply arrangements with local governmental and
quasi-governmental authorities pursuant to which we purchase all the goat milk
produced by the small collective farms at a price negotiated from time to time
by us and the individual farms. For the five months ended March 31, 2010, we
entered into supply arrangement with 33 small-scale farms, which provided 282.5
tons raw goat milk to us. For the five months ended March 31, 2009, 25
small-scale farms provided 2,351.07 tons raw goat milk to us. We are not dependent on any single supplier or group of
suppliers for our raw milk supply. No supplier of raw goat milk accounted for
more than ten percent of our goat milk requirements for the five months ended
March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. We believe that our relationships with
our raw goat milk suppliers are satisfactory and that alternative sources of
supply are available to us on no less favorable terms than are currently
available. Other materials used to produce powdered include desalting whey
powder, lactose, plant fat powder, lactalbumin, whey protein concentrate,
soybean lecithin, various vitamin and mineral supplements and packaging
materials. We have not experienced any significant difficulty in purchasing
these or any other materials. We believe that alternative sources of supply are
available to us on no less favorable terms than are currently available. Processing The raw goat milk is collected by hand or machine and brought
to a collection station. There are approximately 500 collection stations
(sixty-five of which are engaged with us through cooperation) distributed
throughout Weinan County that are used to collect the goat milk into
refrigerated storage tanks, which are then delivered by refrigerated vans to our
processing plants. The raw milk to be converted into a powder is passed through a
high pressure gauge, converting the milk into a fine spray which, through the
use of a high temperature fan, quickly dries the spray into a powder. The powder
is then shipped to another processing facility at which it is supplemented with
various nutritional components and is then packaged into various types of
containers for distribution to our wholesale distributors. We have one spray tower in Fuping Milkgoat, which is used to
make raw liquid goat milk into raw goat milk powder. We have engaged two independent processors to assist us in the
processing of our raw goat milk into powder products. They provide, among other
things, production facilities, offices, dormitories, equipment and personnel to
assist in the processing of raw liquid goat milk into raw goat milk powder
products. For the five months ended March 31, 2010, we processed an aggregate of
approximately 446.23 tons of raw goat milk powder, of which approximately 69.6%
through Fuping Milkgoat and Weinan Milkgoat, and approximately 30.4% through
external suppliers. In external raw goat milk power supplement, we provided
73.8% raw goat milk of their requirements. For the five months ended March 31,
2009, we processed an aggregate of approximately 490.39 tons of raw goat milk
powder, of which approximately 46.3% through Fuping Milkgoat and Weinan
Milkgoat, and approximately 53.7% through external suppliers. In external raw
goat milk power supplement, we provided 35.5% raw goat milk of their
requirements. We believe that our relationships with our raw goat milk powder
suppliers are satisfactory and that alternative sources of supply are available
to us on no less favorable terms than are currently available. -7- Sales and Marketing Currently, we have 604 experienced marketing personnel who are
responsible for market research, promotion and advertisement. We strengthen our
market presence by employing various types of marketing strategies. We
participate in annual trade shows such as National Baby and Young Children Fair
and National Sugar and Spirit Fair, offer seminars and lectures to local
communities regarding the health benefits of our goat milk products, television
advertisements at national and local levels, and other promotional activities.
These activities help to promote our reputation and brand name recognition in
the industry. We use more than 200 distributors to sell our products. The
distributors are located in 23 provinces in China. We sell and distribute our
products through a network of approximately 3,800 retail points including
infant-maternity chain stores, supermarkets (including multinational chains) and
drug stores, as well as catalogue sales across China. We use two independent trucking contractors to distribute our
products throughout China. We selected these trucking companies based on cost
and efficiency. We believe that alternative shipping arrangements are available
if required, on no less favorable terms than are currently available. We do not significantly depend on any single customer for the
sales of our products. We did not have any customer constituting greater than
10% of net sales for the five months ended March 31, 2010. Competition The dairy industry in China is highly competitive and we face
substantial competition from both cow and goat milk producers. Cow milk accounts for more than 90% of the milk consumed in
China. The principal producers and distributors of cow milk are Inner Mongolia
Yili Industrial Group Co., Ltd. and Inner Mongolia Meng Niu Dairy (Group) Co.,
Ltd. We compete with cow milk based on the nutritional advantages of goat milk.
Those advantages include higher nutritional levels of proteins and vitamins (in
particular, vitamins B1, B2 and C) and ease of
digestibility. These factors make goat milk particularly attractive for
those interested in maintaining a healthy lifestyle and for use by infants and
other consumers sensitive to dairy products or allergic to cow milk. However,
cow milks competitive advantages over goat milk include more favorable pricing,
easy availability, and greater market acceptance. This greater market acceptance
is attributable to, among other things, the historic association of goat milk
with unfavorable smells, a much larger supply of available cow milk, and the
fact that goat milk has only recently developed as an alternative available to
consumers in China on a mass-market basis. We are working to improve acceptance
of goat milk through marketing efforts geared towards emphasizing its
nutritional advantages and its favorable taste and smell. We also compete directly with China and foreign-based goat milk
manufacturers. Our China based competitors include Shaanxi Guanshan Dairy Co.,
Ltd and Xian Baiyue Yubao Dairy Co., Ltd. We believe that our principal
competitive advantages in competing with our China-based competitors are product
recognition (including recognition based on quality flavor and price), strong
distribution relationships, established supply sources, and quality. Our foreign
competitors include Karihome (Dairy Goat Co-operative (NZ) Ltd. and other
smaller New Zealand goat milk brands. We compete with our foreign competitors
through more favorable pricing though we believe that the quality of our
products is comparable to, if not superior to, the quality of our competitors
products. Research and Development Our research and development activities focus on upgrading and
enhancing our unique, traditional recipes for our products and improvement in
packaging. We currently have five employees dedicated to research and
development. For the five months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, we expended
$40,898 and $57,558, respectively, with respect to research and development
activities. We are in the process of developing new goat milk based products but
do not anticipate that such products will have a material impact in the near
term on our results of operations. -8- Intellectual Property In 2002, we registered in China the trademark, Mei Ke Gao Te
(a transliteration of Milk Goat in Chinese) for use with our liquid and powder
products and the trademark, Yi Mei Shi for use with our powder products. The
Mei Ke Gao Te mark is generally used for all our products other than those
formulated to provide a particular nutritional or health benefit and the Yi Mei
Shi mark is used for those products emphasizing a specific health or
nutritional benefit. Each of such trademarks has a term of ten years and may be
renewed thereafter. Our goat odor elimination technology which eliminates odor in
our products is developed from the know-how that was exclusively licensed to
us from Taiwan Richlink Enterprise Company Ltd., or Taiwan Richlink, pursuant
to an exclusive licensing agreement, dated April 10, 2001. The licensing agreement
was amended on June 12, 2009 and expires on April 10, 2011. Pursuant to
the exclusive license agreement, as amended, we have the right to use the know-how
for free after the expiration of this agreement. Regulatory Matters We are regulated under national, provincial and local laws in
China. These regulations govern, among other things, the manufacture and
composition of products and ingredients, product labeling and packaging
(including the format and content of product labels nutritional information),
product safety and specified manufacturing practices (including mandating
quality assurance programs). Our facilities are subject to inspection and
licensing requirements and our trade practices (including claims made with
respect to product effectiveness of our products) are regulated. The national, provincial and local governments have increased
their oversight of the production and distribution of dairy products in response
to melamine contamination of certain dairy products produced in China. In
September 2008, our goat milk products were inspected by China's Administration
of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, or AQSIQ. AQSIQ determined
that our products are safe. We anticipate that we will incur additional expense
in complying with additional governmental regulation and oversight. We
anticipate that we will generate additional net sales as consumers migrate to
dairy products processed by companies, such as Tianjin Yayi, with reputations
for producing quality products, though no assurance can be given in this
regard. We believe that we comply in all material respects with
applicable rules and regulations. Seasonality While the consumption of goat milk is not seasonal, goat milk
production is seasonal because goats generally do not produce milk from November
through February. During such period, we generate sales of goat milk powder from
our inventory that builds during the period preceding such hiatus. Our Employees As of March 31, 2010, we employed 859 full-time employees. The
following table sets forth the number of our employees by function as of March
31, 2010. Our employees are not represented by a labor organization or
covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We have not experienced any work
stoppages and we believe our relationship with our employees is
satisfactory. -9- We are required by the PRC law to cover employees in China with
various types of social insurance. We believe that we are in material compliance
with the relevant PRC laws. Insurance We do not have any business liability, interruption or
litigation insurance coverage for our operations in China. Insurance companies
in China offer limited business insurance products. While business interruption
insurance is available to a limited extent in China, we have determined that the
risks of interruption, cost of such insurance and the difficulties associated
with acquiring such insurance on commercially reasonable terms make it
impractical for us to have such insurance. Therefore, we are subject to business
and product liability exposure. See Risk Factors We do not carry any business
interruption insurance, third-party liability insurance for our production
facilities or insurance that covers the risk of loss of our products in
shipment. ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS You should carefully consider the risks described below,
together with all of the other information included in this report. If any of
the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or
results of operations could suffer. In that case, the trading price of our
common stock could decline. You should also refer to the other information about
us contained in this report, including our financial statements and related
notes. RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS Our products may not achieve or maintain market acceptance We may have difficulty gaining market acceptance for goat milk
generally and our products in particular because cow milk dominates the milk
market in China, (constituting more than 90% of the milk sold), the favorable
pricing of cow milk compared to goat milk, and the historic and long-term
association of goat milk with unpleasant smells and tastes. As a result,
achieving and maintaining market acceptance for our products will require
substantial marketing efforts and the expenditure of significant funds to
encourage consumption of goat milk in general, and the purchase of our products
in particular. There is substantial risk that the market may not accept or be
receptive to our products. Market acceptance of our products will depend, in
large part upon our ability to inform potential customers that the distinctive
characteristics of our products make them superior to competitive products and
justify their pricing. Our products may not be accepted by consumers or be able
to compete effectively. The global economic crisis could further impair the dairy
industry thereby limiting demand for our products and affecting the overall
availability and cost of external financing for our operations. The continuation or intensification of the global economic
crisis and turmoil in the global financial markets may adversely impact our
business and our potential sources of capital financing. Our ability to access
the capital markets may be restricted at a time when we would like, or need, to
raise capital, which could have an impact on our flexibility to react to
changing economic and business conditions. In addition, these economic
conditions also impact levels of consumer spending, which have recently
deteriorated significantly and may remain depressed for the foreseeable future.
Consumer purchases of discretionary items, including our goat milk powder,
generally decline during recessionary periods and other periods where disposable
income is adversely affected. If demand for our products fluctuates as a result
of economic conditions or otherwise, our revenue and gross margin could be
harmed. Presently, it is unclear whether and to what extent the economic
stimulus measures and other actions taken or contemplated by the Chinese
government and other governments throughout the world will mitigate the effects
of the crisis on the dairy industry and other industries that affect our
business. Although these conditions have not presently impaired our ability to
access credit markets and finance our operations, the impact of the current
crisis on our ability to obtain capital financing in the future, and the cost
and terms of same, is unclear. We depend on the national and local governments to
support our industry and us. The government plays a significant role in the economy in
general and, the dairy industry in particular. Governmental authorities provide
support for the development of the goat milk industry by, among other things,
providing land, space and equipment for goat farms, financing goat farms,
waiving compliance with otherwise applicable regulations, and reducing or
eliminating tax obligations. Changes in governmental policies supportive of the
development of this industry or failure to maintain good relations with
governmental authorities may require us to incur expenses we are otherwise not
required to incur. We may not have sufficient funds to pay such additional
expenses and even if we do, our profitability may be reduced. -10- Recently discovered contamination of milk powder products
produced in China could result in negative publicity and have a material adverse
effect on our business. Recently, a number of milk powder products produced within
China were found to contain unsafe levels of tripolycyanamide, also known as
melamine, sickening thousands of infants. This prompted the Chinese government
to conduct a nationwide investigation into how the milk powder was contaminated,
and caused a worldwide recall of certain milk powder products produced within
China. Although we believe that the inevitable contraction in the Chinese milk
powder industry caused by this crisis will lead to increased demand for our
products, it is possible that the illnesses caused by contamination in the milk
powder industry may lead to a sustained decrease in demand for milk powder
products produced within China, thereby having a material adverse effect on our
business. See Item 1. Business-Regulatory Matters. Our business and financial results depend on maintaining
a consistent and cost-effective supply of raw milk and other raw materials,
which come from limited geographic areas in China. Any interruption in our
supply of raw mail fruits could materially and adversely affect our results of
operations, financial condition and business prospects. Raw goat milk is the primary raw material we use to produce our
products. We currently own ten dairy goat farms. However, most of our supply of
raw goat milk come from Saanen dairy goats raised on individual and collective
goat farms in Weinan City in Chinas Shaanxi Province. We have long-term supply
arrangements with local governmental and quasi-governmental authorities pursuant
to which we purchase all the milk produced by the small collective farms at a
price negotiated from time to time by us and the individual farms. If we are not
able to maintain our relationships with current suppliers and develop new
sources of supply, we will not be able to meet our production goals and our
sales will fall. If we are forced to expand our sources for raw milk, it may be
more and more difficult for us to maintain our quality control over the handling
of the product in our supply and manufacturing chain. A decrease in the quality
of our raw materials would cause a decrease in the quality of our product and
could damage our reputation and cause sales to decrease. Raw goat milk production is, in turn, influenced by a number of
factors that are beyond our control including, but not limited to, the
following: seasonal factors: goats generally do not produce milk from November
through February; further goats produce more milk in temperate weather than in
cold or hot weather and extended unseasonably cold or hot weather could lead
to lower than expected production;
environmental factors, with the volume and quality of milk produced
by dairy goats closely linked to the quality of the nourishment provided by
the environment around them. A major outbreak of any illness or disease in
goats could lead to a serious loss of consumer confidence in, and demand for,
our goat milk products; and
governmental agricultural and environmental policy: declines in
government grants, subsidies, provision of land, technical assistance and
other changes in agricultural and environmental policies may have a negative
effect on the viability of individual and small farms, and the numbers of
dairy goats and quantities of milk they are able to produce. Even if we are able to source sufficient quantities of raw milk
or our other raw materials to meet our needs, downturns in the supply of such
raw materials caused by one or more of these factors could lead to increased raw material costs which we may not be able to pass on to the
consumers of our products, causing our profit margins to decrease. -11- Our failure to renew or protect our exclusive rights to
use the knowhow provided by Taiwan Richlink Enterprise Company Ltd. may have a
negative effect on our results of operations. Our goat odor elimination technology which eliminates odor in
out products is developed from the know-how that was exclusively licensed to us
from Taiwan Richlink pursuant to an exclusive licensing agreement, dated April
10, 2010. The licensing agreement was amended on June 12, 2009 and will expire
on April 10, 2011. Although we have the right to use the knowhow for free after
the expiration of this agreement, there can be no assurance that such rights
will be exclusive. Taiwan Richlink may license the knowhow to other Chinese goat
milk producers after the expiration of the agreement, which may increase our
competition because we may lose this competitive advantage and as a result may
have a negative impact on our operations. In addition, while we are not aware of
any disputes between Taiwan Richlink and us or any third party, in the event the
goat odor elimination technology is challenged or infringed, Taiwan Richlink may
determine not to protect its intellectual property rights that we license from
it and we may be unable defend such intellectual property rights on our own or
we may have to undertake costly litigation to defend the intellectual property
rights of Taiwan Richlink. Such litigation could result in substantial costs and
diversion of management resources, either of which could harm our business,
operating results and financial condition. The milk business is highly competitive and, therefore,
we face substantial competition in connection with the marketing and sale of our
products. We face competition from cow milk and goat milk producers. Most
of our competitors producing cow milk are well established, have greater
financial, marketing, personnel and other resources than we have been in
business for longer periods of time than we have, and have products that have
gained wide customer acceptance in the marketplace. The greater financial
resources of such competitors will permit them to procure retail store shelf
space and to implement extensive marketing and promotional programs, both
generally and in direct response to our advertising claims. The milk industry is
also characterized by the frequent introduction of new products, accompanied by
substantial promotional campaigns. We may be unable to compete successfully or
our competitors may develop products that have superior qualities or gain wider
market acceptance than ours. Possible volatility of raw milk costs makes our operating
results difficult to predict, and a steep cost increase could cause our profits
to diminish significantly. The policy of China since the mid-1990s has focused on moving
the industry in a more market-oriented direction. These reforms have resulted in
the potential for greater price volatility relative to past periods, as prices
are more responsive to the fundamental supply and demand aspects of the market.
These changes in Chinas dairy policy could increase the risk of price
volatility in the dairy industry, making our net income difficult to predict.
Also, if prices are allowed to escalate sharply, our costs will rise which will
lead to a decrease in profits. Our sales and reputation may be affected by product
liability claims, litigation, product recalls, or adverse publicity in relation
to our products. The sale of products for human consumption involves an inherent
risk of injury to consumers. We face risks associated with product liability
claims, litigation, or product recalls, if our products cause injury, or become
adulterated or misbranded. Our products are subject to product tampering, and to
contamination risks, such as mold, bacteria, insects, and other pests, and
off-flavor contamination during the various stages of the procurement,
production, transportation and storage processes. If any of our products were to
be tampered with, or become tainted in any of these respects and we were unable
to detect this, our products could be subject to product liability claims or
product recalls. We cannot predict what impact such product liability claims or
resulting negative publicity would have on our business or on our brand image.
The successful assertion of product liability claims against us could result in
potentially significant monetary damages, diversion of management resources and
require us to make significant payments and incur substantial legal expenses. We
do not have product liability insurance and have not made provisions for potential product liability claims.
Therefore, we may not have adequate resources to satisfy a judgment if a
successful claim is brought against us. Even if a product liability claim is not
successfully pursued to judgment by a claimant, we may still incur substantial
legal expenses defending against such a claim. Finally, serious product quality
concerns could result in governmental action against us, which, among other
things, could result in the suspension of production or distribution of our
products, loss of certain licenses, or other governmental penalties. A
widespread product recall could result in significant loss due to the cost of
conducting a product recall including destruction of inventory and the loss of
sales resulting from the unavailability of the product for a period of time. In
addition, product liability claims and product recalls could have a material
adverse effect on the demand for our products and on our business goodwill and
reputation. Adverse publicity could result in a loss of consumer confidence in
our products. -12- We compete in an industry that is brand-conscious, and
unless we are able to establish and maintain brand name recognition, our sales
may be negatively impacted. Our business is substantially dependent upon awareness and
market acceptance of our products and brand by our targeted consumers. In
addition, our business depends on acceptance by our suppliers and consumers of
our brand. Although we believe that we have made progress towards establishing
market recognition for our brands Mei Ke Gao Te and Yi Mei Shi in the dairy
products industry in China, it is too early in the product life cycle of the
brand to determine whether our products and brand will achieve and maintain
satisfactory levels of acceptance by our customers. Expansion of our business may put added pressure on our
management and operational infrastructure impeding our ability to meet any
potential increased demand for the products that we sell and possibly hurting
our future operating results. Our business plan is to grow our operations significantly to
meet anticipated growth in demand for the products that we sell, and by the
introduction of new product offerings. Growth in our business may place a
significant strain on our personnel, management, financial systems and other
resources. The evolution of our business also presents numerous risks and
challenges, including: our ability to successfully and rapidly expand sales to potential new
distributors in response to potentially increasing demand; the costs associated with such growth, which are difficult to quantify, but
could be significant; and rapid technological change. To accommodate any such growth and compete effectively, we may
need to obtain additional funding to improve information systems, procedures and
controls and expand, train, motivate and manage our employees, and such funding
may not be available in sufficient quantities, if at all. If we are not able to
manage these activities and implement these strategies successfully to expand to
meet any increased demand, our operating results could suffer. Due to our rapid growth in recent years, our past results
may not be indicative of our future performance and evaluating our business and
prospects may be difficult. Our business has grown and evolved rapidly in recent years as
demonstrated by our growth in net income for the fiscal year ended October 31,
2009 to $5.4 million, from $1.8 million for the prior fiscal year. We may not
be able to achieve similar growth in future periods, and our historical operating
results may not provide a meaningful basis for evaluating our business, financial
performance and prospects. Moreover, our ability to achieve satisfactory production
results at higher volumes is unproven. Therefore, you should not rely on our
past results or our historical rate of growth as an indication of our future
performance. We depend heavily on key personnel, and turnover of key
employees and senior management could harm our business. Our future business and results of operations depend in
significant part upon the continued contributions of our key technical and
senior management personnel, including Li Liu, our chief executive officer and
chairperson, and Fung Shek, our Vice President. If we lose any of these key
employees and are unable to find a qualified replacement in a timely manner, our
business will be negative impacted. In addition, if a key employee fails to
perform in his or her current position, or if we are not able to attract and
retain skilled employees as needed, our business could suffer. Significant
turnover in our senior management could significantly deplete the institutional
knowledge held by our existing senior management team. We depend on the skills
and abilities of these key employees in managing the reclamation, technical, and
marketing aspects of our business, any part of which could be harmed by turnover
in the future. -13- Our inability to protect our intellectual property may
prevent us from successfully marketing our products and competing
effectively. Failure to protect our intellectual property could harm our
brands and our reputation, and adversely affect our ability to compete
effectively. Further, enforcing or defending our intellectual property rights,
including our trademarks, patents, copyrights, know how and trade secrets, could
result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. We
produce, market and sell our products using trademarks of Mei Ke Gao Te and
Yi Mei Shi. We regard our intellectual property, particularly our trademark,
know how and trade secrets to be of considerable value and importance to our
business and our success. We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, trade
secrecy laws, and contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property
rights. There can be no assurance that the steps taken by us to protect these
proprietary rights will be adequate or that third parties will not infringe or
misappropriate our patent, trademark, trade secrets or similar proprietary
rights. In addition, there can be no assurance that other parties will not
assert infringement claims against us, and we may have to pursue litigation
against other parties to assert our rights. Any such claim or litigation could
be costly and we may lack the resources required to defend against such claims.
In addition, any event that would jeopardize our proprietary rights or any
claims of infringement by third parties could have a material adverse affect on
our ability to market or sell our brands, and profitably exploit our
products. We do not carry any business interruption insurance,
third-party liability insurance for our production facilities or insurance that
covers the risk of loss of our products in shipment. Operation of our facilities involves many risks, including
equipment failures, natural disasters, industrial accidents, power outages,
labor disturbances and other business interruptions. Furthermore, if any of our
products are faulty, then we may become subject to product liability claims or
we may have to engage in a product recall. We do not carry any business
interruption insurance, product recall or third-party liability insurance for
our production facilities or with respect to our products to cover claims
pertaining to personal injury or property or environmental damage arising from
defects in our products, product recalls, accidents on our property or damage
relating to our operations. As a result, we may be required to pay for financial
and other losses, damages and liabilities, including those caused by natural
disasters and other events beyond our control, out of our own funds, which could
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results
of operations. We may be exposed to liabilities under the Foreign
Corrupt Practices Act, and any determination that we violated the Foreign
Corrupt Practices Act could have a material adverse effect on our business.
We are subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practice Act, or the
FCPA, and other laws that prohibit improper payments or offers of payments to
foreign governments and their officials and political parties by U.S. persons
and issuers as defined by the statute for the purpose of obtaining or retaining
business. We have operations, agreements with third parties and make sales in
China, which may experience corruption. Our activities in China create the risk
of unauthorized payments or offers of payments by one of the employees,
consultants, sales agents or distributors of our company, because these parties
are not always subject to our control. It is our policy to implement safeguards
to discourage these practices by our employees. Also, our existing safeguards
and any future improvements may prove to be less than effective, and the
employees, consultants, sales agents or distributors of our Company may engage
in conduct for which we might be held responsible. Violations of the FCPA may
result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, and we may be subject to other
liabilities, which could negatively affect our business, operating results and financial condition. In addition, the government may seek
to hold our Company liable for successor liability FCPA violations committed by
companies in which we invest or that we acquire. -14- Our management has identified deficiencies in our
internal control over financial reporting, which if not properly remediated
could result in material misstatements in our future interim and annual
financial statements and have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations and the price of our common
stock. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over
financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of
financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles. See Item 9A(T). Controls and Procedures for a discussion of
matters pertaining to our internal controls over financial reporting. Although we are in the process of implementing initiatives
aimed at addressing these deficiencies, these initiatives may not remediate the
inadequacy. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control
environment could result in us not being able to accurately report our financial
results, prevent or detect fraud or provide timely and reliable financial and
other information pursuant to the reporting obligations we have as a public
company, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations. Further, it could cause our investors to
lose confidence in the information we report, which could adversely affect the
price of our common stock. We have not voluntarily implemented various corporate
governance measures, in the absence of which, shareholders may have limited
protections against related party transactions, conflicts of interest and
similar matters. Since our common stock is not listed for trading on a national
securities exchange, we are not subject to certain of the corporate governance
requirements established by the national securities exchanges pursuant to the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or SOX. These include rules relating to independent
directors, and independent director nomination, audit and compensation
committees. While we are currently seeking independent directors for our board
of directors, we do not presently have such directors. As a result, we have not
established independent audit, compensation, or nominating committees of our
board of directors. In the absence of a majority of independent directors, our
officers and directors could establish policies and enter into transactions
without independent review and approval. In certain circumstances, management
may not have the same interests as the shareholders and conflicts of interest
may arise. Notwithstanding the exercise of their fiduciary duties as directors
and executive officers and any other duties that they may have to us or our
shareholders in general, these persons may have interests different than yours
which could adversely affect your investment. There are limitations on the liability of our directors,
and we may have to indemnify our officers and directors in certain
instances. Our certificate of incorporation contains a specific provision
that eliminates the personal liability of our directors for monetary damages for
breach of their fiduciary duties as directors to the extent provided by Delaware
law. Our bylaws provide that we will indemnify our officers and directors and
may indemnify our employees and other agents. The Company may also have
contractual indemnification obligations under its agreements with its executive
officers and directors. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result
in the Company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of
settlement or damage awards against directors and officers, which the Company
may be unable to recoup. These provisions and resultant costs may also
discourage the Company from bringing a lawsuit against directors and officers
for breaches of their fiduciary duties and may similarly discourage the filing
of derivative litigation by the Companys stockholders against the Companys
directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise
benefit the Company and its stockholders. -15- RISKS RELATED TO DOING BUSINESS IN CHINA Adverse changes in political and economic policies of the
PRC government could impede the overall economic growth of China, which could
reduce the demand for our products and damage our business. We conduct substantially all of our operations and generate
most of our revenue in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition,
results of operations and prospects are affected significantly by economic,
political and legal developments in China. The PRC economy differs from the
economies of most developed countries in many respects, including: a higher level of government involvement; a early stage of development of the market-oriented sector of the economy;
a rapid growth rate; a higher level of control over foreign exchange; and the allocation of resources. As the PRC economy has been transitioning from a planned
economy to a more market-oriented economy, the PRC government has implemented
various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of
resources. While these measures may benefit the overall PRC economy, they may
also have a negative effect on us. Although the PRC government has in recent years implemented
measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the
PRC government continues to exercise significant control over economic growth in
China through the allocation of resources, controlling the payment of foreign
currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and imposing policies
that impact particular industries or companies in different ways. Any adverse change in economic conditions or government
policies in China could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic
growth in China, which in turn could lead to a reduction in demand for our
services and consequently have a material adverse effect on our business and
prospects. Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system could
limit the legal protections available to you and us. We conduct substantially all of our business through our
operating subsidiaries in the PRC. Our operating subsidiaries are generally
subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investments in China and,
in particular, laws applicable to foreign-invested enterprises. The PRC legal
system is based on written statutes, and prior court decisions may be cited for
reference but have limited precedential value. Since 1979, a series of new PRC
laws and regulations have significantly enhanced the protections afforded to
various forms of foreign investments in China. However, since the PRC legal
system continues to evolve rapidly, the interpretations of many laws,
regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws,
regulations and rules involve uncertainties, which may limit legal protections
available to you and us. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted
and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management
attention. In addition, all of our executive officers and all of our directors
are residents of China and not of the United States, and substantially all the
assets of these persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it
could be difficult for investors to affect service of process in the United
States or to enforce a judgment obtained in the United States against our
Chinese operations and subsidiaries. If we are found to have failed to comply with applicable
laws, we may incur additional expenditures or be subject to significant fines
and penalties. Our operations are subject to PRC laws and regulations
applicable to us. However, many PRC laws and regulations are uncertain in their
scope, and the implementation of such laws and regulations in different
localities could have significant differences. In certain instances, local
implementation rules and/or the actual implementation are not necessarily
consistent with the regulations at the national level. Although we strive to
comply with all the applicable PRC laws and regulations, we cannot assure you
that the relevant PRC government authorities will not later determine that we
have not been in compliance with certain laws or regulations. Our failure to
comply with applicable PRC laws and regulations could subject us to
administrative penalties and injunctive relief, as well as civil remedies,
including fines, injunctions and recalls of our products. It is possible that
changes to such laws or more rigorous enforcement of such laws or with respect
to our current or past practices could have a material adverse effect on our
business, operating results and financial condition. -16- The PRC government exerts substantial influence over the
manner in which we must conduct our business activities. The PRC government has exercised and continues to exercise
substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through
regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate in China may be harmed by
changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation,
import and export tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, property
and other matters. We believe that our operations in China are in material
compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. However, the
central or local governments of the jurisdictions in which we operate may impose
new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would
require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance
with such regulations or interpretations. Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any
decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a
more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the
implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic
conditions in China or particular regions thereof and could require us to divest
ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese properties or joint
ventures. Extensive regulation of the food processing and
distribution industry in China could increase our expenses resulting in reduced
profits. We are subject to extensive regulation by China's Agricultural
Ministry, and by other county and local authorities in jurisdictions in which
our products are processed or sold, regarding the processing, packaging,
storage, distribution and labeling of our products. Applicable laws and
regulations governing our products may include nutritional labeling and serving
size requirements. Our processing facilities and products are subject to
periodic inspection by national, county and local authorities. To the extent
that new regulations are adopted, we will be required to conform our activities
in order to comply with such regulations. Our failure to comply with applicable
laws and regulations could subject us to civil remedies, including fines,
injunctions, recalls or seizures, as well as potential criminal sanctions, which
could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations and
finances. Because Shaanxi Coalfield Geology Bureau Hydrological
Team failed to obtain necessary approval from relevant government authority when
they leased an allocated land to Fuping Milkgoat, there is no guarantee that the
PRC government will not challenge the validity of the lease in the
future. In 2004, when Shaanxi Coalfield Geology Bureau Hydrological
Team, or Shaanxi Coalfield, leased an allocated land to Fuping Milkgoat for its
business use, it did not obtain necessary approvals from relevant land
administrations of municipal or county governments or complete necessary
administrative procedures. On August 8, 2008, Tianjin Yayi acquired Fuping
Milkgoat. According to Provisional Rules on Administration of Allocated Land Use
Right of PRC, promulgated by State Land Administration on March 8, 1992, land
users who transfer, lease or mortgage allocated land use right must bear
state-owned land use certificate and legal documents of the premises and
attached structures and properties and apply in written form to land
administrations of local municipal or county people's governments. Land
administrations of municipal or county people's governments, through
negotiations, sign land use right transfer contract with the applicant. Land
users shall, within 60 days after the signing of land use right leasing
contracts, pay lease fees to local municipal or county people's governments and
have the land use right leasing registered at the land administrations of the
municipal or county people's governments. Both parties involved in transfer,
leasing or mortgaging of land use right shall, within 15 days after the
registration of a land use right lease, go to land administrations of municipal
or county people's governments to have the transfer, leasing or mortgaging of
land use right registered. Shaanxi Coalfield failed to comply with the above
requirement for not obtaining the government approval or completing the
necessary administrative procedures before they leased the allocated land to us.
Although the PRC regulatory agency has never challenged the validity of our
lease since 2004 when Fuping Milkgoat leased the land, there is no guarantee
that it will not do so in the future. Fuping Milkgoat has requested Shaanxi
Coalfield to complete necessary approval procedures. -17- Our business will suffer if the operations of our certain
goat firms need to be suspended. Because our certain goat farms that we currently operate
through Weinan Milkgoat in Shaanxi did not obtain approval for quarantine
permits before their operations, the PRC government may challenge the validity
of the operations in the future. All of these goat farms were newly built and we
are in the process of applying for such approvals. Although we do not expect any
obstacle to obtain approvals in the near futures, there is no guarantee that the
PRC regulatory agency may not request us to suspend the operations of these farms
until we receive the required government approvals. Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability
to receive and use our sales revenue effectively. All our sales revenue and expenses are denominated in RMB.
Under PRC law, the RMB is currently convertible under the current account,
which includes dividends and trade and service-related foreign exchange
transactions, but not under the capital account, which includes foreign direct
investment and loans. Currently, our PRC operating subsidiaries may purchase
foreign currencies for settlement of current account transactions, including
payments of dividends to us, without the approval of the State Administration of
Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, by complying with certain procedural requirements.
However, the relevant PRC government authorities may limit or eliminate our
ability to purchase foreign currencies in the future. Since a significant amount
of our future revenue will be denominated in RMB, any existing and future
restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to utilize revenue
generated in RMB to fund our business activities outside China that are
denominated in foreign currencies. Foreign exchange transactions by our PRC operating subsidiaries
under the capital account continue to be subject to significant foreign exchange
controls and require the approval of or need to register with PRC government
authorities, including SAFE. In particular, if our PRC operating subsidiaries
borrow foreign currency through loans from us or other foreign lenders, these
loans must be registered with SAFE, and if we finance the subsidiaries by means
of additional capital contributions, these capital contributions must be
approved by certain government authorities, including the Ministry of Commerce,
or MOFCOM, or their respective local counterparts. These limitations could
affect their ability to obtain foreign exchange through debt or equity
financing. Fluctuations in exchange rates could adversely affect our
business and the value of our securities. The value of our common stock will be indirectly affected by
the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB and between those
currencies and other currencies in which our sales may be denominated.
Appreciation or depreciation in the value of the RMB relative to the U.S. dollar
would affect our financial results reported in U.S. dollar terms without giving
effect to any underlying change in our business or results of operations.
Fluctuations in the exchange rate will also affect the relative value of any
dividend we issue in the future as well as earnings from, and the value of, any
U.S. dollar-denominated investments we make in the future. Since July 2005, the RMB has no longer been pegged to the U.S.
dollar. Although the Peoples Bank of China regularly intervenes in the foreign
exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange
rate, the RMB may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the
U.S. dollar in the medium to long term. Moreover, it is possible that in the
future PRC authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in the RMB exchange
rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market. Very limited hedging transactions are available in China to
reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. To date, we have not entered
into any hedging transactions. While we may enter into hedging transactions in
the future, the availability and effectiveness of these transactions may be
limited, and we may not be able to hedge our exposure successfully at all. In addition, our foreign currency
exchange losses may be magnified by PRC exchange control regulations that
restrict our ability to convert RMB into foreign currencies. -18- Restrictions under PRC law on our PRC subsidiaries
ability to make dividends and other distributions could materially and adversely
affect our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could benefit
our business, pay dividends to you, and otherwise fund and conduct our
businesses. Substantially all of our revenues are earned by our PRC
subsidiaries. However, PRC regulations restrict the ability of our PRC
subsidiaries to make dividends and other payments to its offshore parent
company. PRC legal restrictions permit payments of dividend by our PRC
subsidiaries only out of their accumulated after-tax profits, if any, determined
in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Our PRC
subsidiaries are also required under PRC laws and regulations to allocate at
least 10% of our annual after-tax profits determined in accordance with PRC GAAP
to a statutory general reserve fund until the amounts in said fund reaches 50%
of our registered capital. Allocations to these statutory reserve funds can only
be used for specific purposes and are not transferable to us in the form of
loans, advances or cash dividends. Any limitations on the ability of our PRC
subsidiaries to transfer funds to us could materially and adversely limit our
ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to
our business, pay dividends and otherwise fund and conduct our business. Under the New EIT Law, we may be classified as a
resident enterprise of China. Such classification will likely result in
unfavorable tax consequences to our non-PRC stockholders and us. China passed a new Enterprise Income Tax Law, or the New EIT
Law, and its implementing rules, both of which became effective on January 1,
2008. Under the New EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with de
facto management bodies within China is considered a resident enterprise,
meaning that it can be treated in a manner similar to a Chinese enterprise for
enterprise income tax purposes. The implementing rules of the New EIT Law define
de facto management as substantial and overall management and control over the
production and operations, personnel, accounting, and properties of the
enterprise. Because the New EIT Law and its implementing rules are new, no
official interpretation or application of this new resident enterprise
classification is available. Therefore, it is unclear how tax authorities will
determine tax residency based on the facts of each case. If the PRC tax authorities determine that Yayi International
Inc. is a resident enterprise for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, a number
of unfavorable PRC tax consequences could follow. First, we may be subject to
the enterprise income tax at a rate of 25% on our worldwide taxable income as
well as PRC enterprise income tax reporting obligations. In our case, this would
mean that non-China source income would be subject to PRC enterprise income tax
at a rate of 25%. Second, although under the New EIT Law and its implementing
rules dividends paid to us from our PRC subsidiaries would qualify as
tax-exempt income, we cannot guarantee that such dividends will not be subject
to a 10% withholding tax, as the PRC foreign exchange control authorities, which
enforce the withholding tax, have not yet issued guidance with respect to the
processing of outbound remittances to entities that are treated as resident
enterprises for PRC enterprise income tax purposes. Finally, it is possible that
future guidance issued with respect to the new resident enterprise
classification could result in a situation in which a 10% withholding tax is
imposed on dividends we pay to our non-PRC stockholders and with respect to
gains derived by our non-PRC stockholders from transferring our shares. We are
actively monitoring the possibility of resident enterprise treatment for the
2008 tax year and are evaluating appropriate organizational changes to avoid
this treatment, to the extent possible. If we were treated as a resident enterprise by PRC tax
authorities, we would be subject to taxation in both the U.S. and China, and our
PRC tax may not be creditable against our U.S. tax. If the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or CSRC,
or another PRC regulatory agency determines that CSRC approval is required in
connection with the reverse acquisition of Charleston, the reverse acquisition
may be unwound, or we may become subject to penalties. On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the
CSRC, promulgated the Provisions Regarding Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic
Enterprises by Foreign Investors, or the M&A Rule, which became effective on September 8, 2006. The M&A Rule, among other things,
requires that an offshore company controlled by PRC companies or individuals
that have acquired a PRC domestic company for the purpose of listing the PRC
domestic companys equity interest on an overseas stock exchange must obtain the
approval of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of such offshore companys
securities on an overseas stock exchange. On September 21, 2006, the CSRC,
pursuant to the M&A Rule, published on its official web site procedures
specifying documents and materials required to be submitted to it by offshore
companies seeking CSRC approval of their overseas listings.
-19- We do not believe that the M&A Rule concerning the CSRC
approval for acquisition of a PRC domestic company by an offshore company
controlled by PRC companies or individuals applies to our reverse acquisition of
Charleston because neither Yayi International Inc. nor Charleston is a Special
Purpose Vehicle or an offshore company controlled by PRC companies or
individuals as defined in the M&A Rule. If the CSRC or another PRC
governmental agency subsequently determines that we must obtain CSRC approval
prior to the completion of the reverse acquisition, the reverse acquisition may
be unwound and we may face regulatory actions or other sanctions from the CSRC
or other PRC regulatory agencies. These regulatory agencies may impose fines and
penalties on our operations in China and limit our operating privileges in
China, or take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation and prospects,
as well as the trading price of our shares. The M&A Rule establishes more complex procedures for
some acquisitions of Chinese companies by foreign investors, which could make it
more difficult for us to pursue growth through acquisitions in China.
The M&A Rule establishes additional procedures and
requirements that could make some acquisitions of Chinese companies by foreign
investors more time-consuming and complex, including requirements in some
instances that the PRC Ministry of Commerce be notified in advance of any
change-of-control transaction and in some situations, require approval of the
PRC Ministry of Commerce when a foreign investor takes control of a Chinese
domestic enterprise. In the future, we may grow our business in part by
acquiring complementary businesses, although we do not have any plans to do so
at this time. The M&A Rule also requires PRC Ministry of Commerce anti-trust
review of any change-of-control transactions involving certain types of foreign
acquirers. Complying with the requirements of the M&A Rule to complete such
transactions could be time-consuming, and any required approval processes,
including obtaining approval from the PRC Ministry of Commerce, may delay or
inhibit our ability to complete such transactions, which could affect our
ability to expand our business or maintain our market share. You may have difficulty enforcing judgments against
us. We are a Delaware holding company and most of our assets are
located outside of the United States. Most of our current operations are
conducted in the PRC. In addition, most of our directors and officers are
nationals and residents of countries other than the United States. A substantial
portion of the assets of these persons is located outside the United States. As
a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within the
United States upon these persons. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in
U.S. courts judgments on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal
securities laws against us and our officers and directors, most of whom are not
residents in the United States and the substantial majority of whose assets are
located outside of the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty as to
whether the courts of the PRC would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S.
courts. Courts in China may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in
accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedures Law based on
treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on
reciprocity between jurisdictions. China does not have any treaties or other
arrangements that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of
foreign judgments with the United States. In addition, according to the PRC
Civil Procedures Law, courts in the PRC will not enforce a foreign judgment
against us or our directors and officers if they decide that the judgment
violates basic principles of PRC law or national sovereignty, security or the
public interest. So it is uncertain whether a PRC court would enforce a judgment
rendered by a court in the United States. RISKS RELATED TO THE MARKET FOR OUR STOCK GENERALLY The market price of our common stock is volatile, leading
to the possibility of its value being depressed at a time when you may want to
sell your holdings. The market price of our common stock is volatile, and this
volatility may continue. Numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control,
may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate significantly. In
addition to market and industry factors, the price and trading volume for our
common stock may be highly volatile for specific business reasons. Factors such
as variations in our revenues, earnings and cash flow, announcements of new
investments, cooperation arrangements or acquisitions, and fluctuations in
market prices for our products could cause the market price for our shares to
change substantially. -20- Securities class action litigation is often instituted against
companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. This type of
litigation could result in substantial costs to us and divert our managements
attention and resources. Moreover, the trading market for our common stock will be
influenced by research or reports that industry or securities analysts publish
about us or our business. If one or more analysts who cover us downgrade our
common stock, the market price for our common stock would likely decline. If one
or more of these analysts cease coverage of us or fail to publish reports on us
regularly, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which, in turn,
could cause the market price for our common stock or trading volume to decline.
Furthermore, securities markets may from time to time
experience significant price and volume fluctuations for reasons unrelated to
operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may
adversely affect the price of our common stock and other interests in our
company at a time when you want to sell your interest in us. We may be subject to penny stock regulations and
restrictions and you may have difficulty selling shares of our common
stock. The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define
so-called penny stocks to be an equity security that has a market price less
than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject
to certain exemptions. If our common stock becomes a penny stock, we may
become subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act, or the Penny Stock Rule.
This rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that
sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited
investors (generally, individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or
annual incomes exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouses). For
transactions covered by Rule 15g-9, a broker-dealer must make a special
suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchasers
written consent to the transaction prior to sale. As a result, this rule may
affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the
ability of purchasers to sell any of our securities in the secondary market. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the
rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in penny stock, of a disclosure
schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is
also required to be made about sales commissions payable to both the
broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the
securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing
recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information
on the limited market in penny stock. There can be no assurance that our common stock will qualify
for exemption from the Penny Stock Rule. In any event, even if our common stock
were exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section
15(b)(6) of the Exchange Act, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any
person from participating in a distribution of penny stock, if the SEC finds
that such a restriction would be in the public interest. Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board
which may have an unfavorable impact on our stock price and liquidity.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. The OTC
Bulletin Board is a significantly more limited market than the New York Stock
Exchange or NASDAQ system. The quotation of our shares on the OTC Bulletin Board may result in a less liquid market available for existing
and potential stockholders to trade shares of our common stock, could depress
the trading price of our common stock and could have a long-term adverse impact
on our ability to raise capital in the future. -21- Certain provisions of our Articles of Incorporation may
make it more difficult for a third party to effect a change-of-control.
Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes our board of
directors to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The preferred
stock may be issued in one or more series, the terms of which may be determined
at the time of issuance by the board of directors without further action by the
stockholders. These terms may include preferences as to dividends and
liquidation, conversion rights, redemption rights and sinking fund provisions.
The issuance of any preferred stock could diminish the rights of holders of our
common stock, and therefore could reduce the value of such common stock. In
addition, specific rights granted to future holders of preferred stock could be
used to restrict our ability to merge with, or sell assets to, a third party.
The ability of our board of directors to issue preferred stock could make it
more difficult, delay, discourage, prevent or make it more costly to acquire or
effect a change-in-control, which in turn could prevent our stockholders from
recognizing a gain in the event that a favorable offer is extended and could
materially and negatively affect the market price of our common stock. In
connection with our private placement transaction in June 2009, we filed a
Certificate of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock with the Secretary of
State of the State of Delaware on June 16, 2009, pursuant to which we issued
1,530,612 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to SAIF. The conversion of preferred stock or exercise of warrants
we issued in our previous private placements may result in dilution to the
holders of our common stock and cause the price of our common stock to decline.
Dilution of the per share value of our common stock could
result from the conversion of our outstanding Series A Preferred Stock issued to
SAIF and the exercise of outstanding warrants that we issued in connection with
our previous private placement transactions. As of June 26, 2010, there were
1,530,612 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock outstanding, which may be
converted into our common stock at the option of the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock in whole or in part at any time at an initial conversion price
of $0.98. In addition, as of June 26, 2010, there were outstanding warrants to
purchase 3,096,389 shares of our common stock. When the conversion price of the
Series A Preferred Stock or the exercise price of the warrants is less than the
trading price of our common stock, the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock or
the exercise of the warrants would have a dilutive effect on our shareholders.
The possibility of the issuance of shares of our common stock upon the
conversion of Series A Preferred Stock or exercise of the warrants could cause
the trading price of our common stock to decline as well. We may not have sufficient funds to redeem our
outstanding Series A Preferred Stock upon the request of the holders and we may
have difficulties to raise the funds necessary to settle redemption of the
Series A Preferred Stock, which could negatively affect our financial condition
and results of operations. We filed the Certificate with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on June 16, 2009, in which we authorized 1,530,612 shares of
Series A Preferred Stock. According to the Certificate, at any
time and from time to time after June 30, 2012, the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock have the right to request the Company to redeem all of the then
outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock in cash, if any of the following
qualified events has not occurred: (i) the Companys shares of common stock are
listed on the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Global Market, and (ii) the
closing market price of such listing securities represents a price of no less
than $4.25 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment, in any consecutive
30-trading-day period. It will cost an amount equals to the sum of (x) the
purchase price plus an annualized internal rate of return of 25% for the period
from the issuance date of the Series A Preferred Stock to the redemption date
and (y) an amount equal to all declared but unpaid dividends for each
outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock, proportionally adjusted for
recapitalizations to redeem a share of Series A Preferred Stock. We cannot
assure you that we would have sufficient financial resources, or would be able
to arrange financing, to redeem all of the shares of the Series A Preferred
Stock upon the request of the holders. According to the Certificate, to the extent our available cash flow is insufficient to fund all
redemption requests, those funds will be used to redeem the maximum possible
number of such shares ratably among the holders. The shares not redeemed
shall remain outstanding and at any time thereafter when additional funds of the
Company are available for the redemption, such funds will immediately be used to
redeem the balance of the shares. Our obligations to redeem the balance of the
shares may limit our ability to borrow money or sell stock to fund and as a
result, may require a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to be
used for the redemption of these shares, thereby reducing the availability of
our cash flow to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and
other general corporate purposes. One or a combination of these factors could
adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. -22- We do not plan to pay any dividends in the foreseeable
future. We have not paid a dividend in the past and it is unlikely that
we will declare or pay a dividend in the foreseeable future. The declaration,
amount and date of distribution of any dividends in the future will be decided
by the Board of Directors from time-to-time, based upon, and subject to, the
Companys earnings, financial requirements and other conditions prevailing at
the time. ITEM
2. PROPERTIES
There is no private ownership of land in China and all land
ownership is held by the government of China, its agencies, and collectives. In
the case of land used for business purposes, land use rights can be obtained
from the government for a period up to 50 years, and are typically renewable.
Land use rights can be transferred upon approval by the land administrative
authorities of China (State Land Administration Bureau) upon payment of the
required land transfer fee. We own or lease the following manufacturing and production
facilities: we own a facility located in Fuping County of Shaanxi Province capable of
spray drying 40 metric tons of raw milk per day. The facility occupies an area
of 100 square meters. our wholly owned facility located in the Xiqing District of Tianjin City,
which is, on the basis of a daily double shift, capable of combining and
formulating the milk powder with the nutritional supplements and then
packaging the end product at a rate of approximately six metric tons per day.
The facility occupies an area of 800 square meters. Construction in progress of goat farm facilities We entered into a series of agreements in 2009 to purchase and
construct 9 farm facilities and 10 raw milk collection stations, to ensure a
steady supply of raw liquid goat milk. As of March 31, 2010, we had signed several agreements with two
construction companies, Zhuangli Construction Team and Fupin County Qinzheng
Construction Engineering Corporation for the construction of farm facilities
with a total amount of $2,524,831 (RMB17, 260,000). $1,749,828 (RMB11, 962,000)
has been paid as of March 31, 2010. The remaining balance of $775,003 (RMB5,
298,000) will be paid progressively. The final payment of 25% to Zhuangli
Construction Team is due one year after the construction is completed and
accepted. The remaining balance for the construction by Qinzheng Construction
Engineering Corporation will be paid progressively and final payment of 10% is
due one year after the construction is approved and accepted. Due to the changes
of some construction location, the completion date was extended to October,
2010. On September 2009, we signed a supplemental agreement with Qinzheng
Construction Engineering Corporation reducing the total amount of costs by
$277,936(RMB1, 900,000) due to the changes of construction location. The
remaining balance after reduction is $497,067(RMB3, 398,000) and will be paid
progressively. As of the date of this report, two of these new farms have
completed construction and are operating, three of them are under preliminary
operations, and the rest are still under construction. -23- During the year ended March 31, 2010, we signed an agreement
with Zhuangli Construction Team for the construction of goat milking collection
stations with the total amount of $482,731 (RMB3, 300,000). $459,326 (RMB3,
140,000) has been paid as of March 31, 2010. The remaining balance of $23,405
(RMB160,000) is due one year after the construction is completed and accepted.
As of the date of this report, the construction of the ten collection stations
have been completed and are operating. Purchase of Machinery & Equipment for Jinghai
facilities The Company signed four contracts for purchasing machinery and
equipment to expand its goat milk powder production lines and liquid goat milk
production line, with the total amount of $$6,314,200 (RMB 43,164,500).
$1,916,780 (RMB 13,103,300) has been paid as of March 31, 2010. The remaining
balance of $4,397,420 (RMB 30,061,200) will be paid progressively, in which
$2,647,941 (RMB 18,100,000) for liquid goat milk production equipment will not
been paid till 2012. The machinery and equipment for goat milk powder production
is expected to be delivered and inspected by September 2010 and final payment of
5% is to be paid within 6 months after approval of final inspection of equipment
received. Our current administrative, processing and warehousing
facilities are insufficient for our needs. Accordingly, we have entered into a
number of agreements and arrangements to expand our facilities that are
summarized below. We had entered into a factory and warehouse leasing agreement
in January 2007 with Tianjin Mengyang pursuant to which we were to lease through
2029 an approximately 30,000 square meter factory and warehouse that was to be
built in Tianjin City, China. In September 2008, this agreement was cancelled
and in lieu thereof, the parties entered into a new agreement, subsequently
amended, pursuant to which we have agreed to acquire facilities that are to be
converted into three warehouses and a processing facility. In addition to the
payments to be made to Tianjin Mengyang in connection with this agreement, we
anticipate that we will require approximately $6 million to equip such facility
to perform the contemplated functions. Since the period ended March 31, 2010,
the Company has adopted a new marketing strategy and will not produce the liquid
goat milk within three years. Now the Company is negotiating with one of its
liquid goat milk equipment suppliers to terminate one of the contracts for
purchasing machinery and equipment. For the new production project, we
redesigned the whole facilities. These facilities are to be completed by Q4 of
2010. On June 12, 2009, Tianjin Yayi entered into a supplemental
agreement, or the Supplemental Agreement, with Tianjin Mengyang, pursuant to
which Tianjin Mengyang had the obligations to complete the construction, filing
and inspection of the properties listed in the appendix of the Supplemental
Agreement by December 31, 2009. In addition, by June 30, 2010, Tianjin Mengyang
should complete the transfer of such properties to Tianjin Yayi as well as
ensure that Tianjin Yayi will be able to obtain all necessary certificates of
land use rights and titles of these properties. In exchange, Tianjin Yayi agreed
to pay the outstanding purchase price of the properties in an aggregate amount
of approximately RMB 32 million (approximately $4.7 million) within a specified
time period. On July 25, 2008, we entered into an agreement with the
Government of the Linwei District of Weinan City, or the Government, pursuant to
which the Company is to build a 68,941 square meter goat milk processing
facility in one of the Governments industrial parks. The construction project
is estimated to cost approximately $19,016,690 (RMB 130,000,000), which includes
fixed assets investment of approximately $11,702,580 (RMB 80,000,000) and
working capital of approximately $7,314,112 (RMB 50,000,000). In connection with
this agreement, the Government will transfer land use rights of approximately
67,000 square meters to the Company for 50 years for approximately $994,719 (RMB
6,800,000). Pursuant to a supplemental agreement entered into on September 16,
2008 with the Government, the Company is required to commence construction
within six months of the date of the supplemental agreement. Subsequent to
January 31, 2009, the Company reached an oral agreement with the Government to
extend the commencement date of the construction to no later than May 31, 2009.
As of October 31, 2009, the Company has obtained the related approval documents
from the Government to begin construction. In accordance with the supplemental
agreement, the Company paid $146,282 (RMB 1,000,000) for part of the
consideration of the land use rights. According to the land surveying from
Government, the remaining balance has been revised from $848,437 (RMB 5,800,000)
to $796,090 (RMB 5,442,150) and the remaining balance has been paid on November
24, 2009. We have received the certificate on land use right from the local
government and the construction has commenced in March 2010. Amortization is
provided over estimated useful live of 50 years. It is anticipated that initially such facility will be capable of
spray drying 480 metric tons of raw goat milk per day and that at a later stage,
such facility may be expanded as requirements dictate. We are to commence
construction of this facility by March 2010 and have paid Weinan City Government
an aggregate of approximately $942,096. In addition to the payments made to
Weinan City Government, it is estimated that this project will cost
approximately $16 million (approximately $9 million of fixed asset investment
and approximately $7 million in working capital when such facility commences
operations) and that such facility will commence operations in Q4 of 2011. -24- On October 28, 2009, our wholly owned subsidiary, Shaanxi
Milkgoat, entered into a Project Installation Agreement, or the Installation
Agreement, with Heilongjiang Tianhong Food Equipment Co., Ltd., or Heilongjiang
Tianhong, which provided for, among others, that Heilongjiang Tianhong was to
provide and install all the process pipelines and the central system pipelines
at Shaanxi Milkgoats new joint production facility. Pursuant to the
Installation Agreement, Shaanxi Milkgoat agreed to pay Heiliongjiang Tianhong an
aggregate of RMB 12,535,000 (approximately $1.84 million) in five installments
for the service that Heilongjiang Tianhong will provide. Heiliongjiang Tianhong
agreed to complete the installation within 90 days after Shaanxi Milkgoat
provides to Heilongjiang Tianhong an appropriate construction site for the
installation according to the Installation Agreement. We believe that all our properties have been adequately
maintained, are generally in good condition, and are suitable and adequate for
our business. ITEM
3. LEGAL
PROCEEDINGS From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits
and legal proceedings, which arise, in the ordinary course of business. However,
litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these
or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are
currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will
have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition or operating
results. ITEM

2009 to March 31, 2010. The comparative financial information provided for the five
months ended March 31, 2009 is unaudited, since it represented an interim period
of the fiscal year ended October 31, 2009. The unaudited financial information
for the five months ended March 31, 2009 includes all normal recurring
adjustments necessary for the fair statement of the results for that period. The
audited financial statements and results of operations for the years ended
October 31, 2009 and 2008 were previously reported in the Form 10-K filed on
February 16, 2010. The data of results of operations for the fiscal years ended
March 31, 2010 and 2009 were not audited or reviewed and were included in this
report for the sole purpose to provide additional information to the
readers. Overview We are the first mover and a leading producer and distributor
of premium goat milk formula products for infants, toddlers, young children,
and adults in China. Our current formula product lines are targeted at the premium
segment of the dairy market and health-conscious consumers. Headquartered in
Tianjin, we sell and distribute our products through a nationwide network of
retail points across China in 23 provinces and municipalities including supermarkets
(including multinational chains), infant-maternity chain stores and drug stores,
as well as catalogue sales and a dedicated online store at Taobao.com. We are
vertically integrated and source raw goat milk from our proprietary dairy farms
as well as neighboring goat dairy farmers on a long-term contract basis in milk
collection centers, which helps us maintain quality control. Recent Development In January 2010, as part of our efforts to raise awareness of
goat milk among the Chinese consumers and to build our brand, we started
launching a 15-second advertisement campaign on China Central Television Channel
1 (CCTV-1) right before the start of the channel's flagship national news
program (XinWenLianBo). The advertisement time is considered as one of the most
valuable prime-time by Chinese advertisers. In addition to advertising before
the national evening news program, we have also launched commercials on other
television programs of several CCTV channels. We also co-hosted the "China Goat Milk Industry Development
Summit", or the Summit, together with the National Development and Reform
Commission, or NDRC, and the China Dairy Association in the Great Hall of the
People in Beijing on January 22, 2010. Attended by top goat milk industry
experts and professionals as well as key government officials from NDRC and
China Dairy Association, the Summit aimed to initiate discussions regarding
scaling up China's goat milk industry and increasing the market recognition of
the benefits and nutritional value of goat milk. We presented our "Milk Goat"
branded products and market development strategy. In conjunction with the Summit and with the intention to
broaden our distribution network, we held a nationwide goat milk distributor
conference in order to secure distribution agreements and provide distributors
with marketing strategy and action plan that support our Milk Goat brand. We
selectively invited over 240 distributors across China, including multinational
players such as Carrefour and Wal-Mart, to attend the conference. Roughly 70% of
those distributors attending the conference were new, as we hope to broaden our
distribution network, and the remaining 30% represented existing distributors
who have made contributions to expand our sales. -27- During the first five months of 2010, we have added 1,080
retail points, including more Wal-Mart and Carrefour stores, Lotus, Shiji
Lianhua, Shiji Hualian, Trust Mart and Ren Ren Le as well as other hypermarkets,
local supermarket chains, infant-maternity stores, drug stores and convenience
stores. The expansion of our distribution network has helped deepen our market
penetration throughout China, with additions of 430 stores in North China, 333
stores in Central China, 208 stores in South China and 109 stores in East China.
We have been restructuring our nationwide distribution network since the
beginning of this year with more emphasis on developing our product coverage in
the hypermarkets and supermarket chains while streamlining the smaller stores
established in the past. As of the date of this report, we have approximately
3,800 retail points throughout China. On April 30, 2010, we entered into a loan agreement, or the
Loan, pursuant to which the Company borrowed $3 million from SAIF. SAIF
currently owns 1,530,612 shares of the Companys Series A Preferred Stock, which
constitute all of the issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Stock of the
Company. The Loan has an interest rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum,
calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed during the relevant
period and a 360-day year. In addition, the entire principal amount of the Loan
and any accrued interest on the Loan shall become fully due and payable on the
date that is the earlier to occur of (i) the date that is six (6) months after
the release of the principal of the Loan, unless extended in the sole discretion
of the Lender; and (ii) the acceleration of the maturity of the Loan upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement), without
further action on the part of the Lender. The Company can repay the entire
principal and the accrued interest before the maturity of the Loan without any
prepayment penalty. On the same day, to secure repayment by the Company of the
Loan, the Companys major shareholder, Global Rock executed in favor of SAIF
Partners a stock pledge agreement, pursuant to which Global Rock pledged
13,024,725 shares of common stock of the Company as security for the obligations
of the Company under the Loan Agreement. On May 31, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted
the Plan. Up to 2,359,974 shares of common stock of the Company (subject to
adjustment as described in the Plan) may be issued under the Plan. The Plan
permits the grant of Nonqualified Stock Options, Restricted Stock, and Incentive
Stock to employees, officers, directors, and consultants of the Company and its
subsidiaries. As of the date of this report, the Company has granted options to
its directors, executive officers and non-executive employees under the Plan to
purchase an aggregate of 1,906,392 shares of common stock of the Company. Taxation United States Yayi International Inc. is subject to United States tax at a
tax rate of 41%. No provision for income taxes in the United States has been
made as Yayi International Inc. had no income taxable in the United States. British Virgin Islands Charleston was incorporated in the BVI and under the current
laws of the BVI, is not subject to income taxes. PRC In 2007, the PRC government promulgated the new Enterprise
Income Tax Law, or EIT Law, and the relevant implementation rules, which became
effective on January 1, 2008. Under the EIT Law and its implementation rules,
all domestic and foreign investment companies will be subject to a uniform
enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% and dividends from PRC subsidiaries to
their non-PRC shareholders will be subject to a withholding tax at a rate of 20%, which is further reduced to 10% by the implementation
rules, if the non-PRC shareholder is considered to be a non-PRC tax resident
enterprise without any establishment or place within China or if the dividends
payable has no connection with the non-PRC shareholders establishment or place
within China, unless any such non-PRC shareholders jurisdiction of
incorporation has a tax treaty with China that provides for a different
withholding arrangement. In addition, pursuant to the EIT Law, enterprises
established under the laws of non-PRC jurisdictions, but whose de facto
management body is located in the PRC, should be treated as resident
enterprises for PRC tax purposes However, it is currently uncertain whether we
may be deemed a resident enterprise, or how to interpret whether any income or
gain is derived from sources within China. See Risk Factors - Under the New EIT
Law, we may be classified as a resident enterprise of China. Such
classification will likely result in unfavorable tax consequences to our non-PRC
shareholders and us. If we, as a Delaware company with substantially all of our
management located in China, were treated as a resident enterprise for PRC tax
purposes, we will be subject to PRC tax on our worldwide income at the 25%
uniform tax rate, which would have an impact on our effective tax rate. -28- The EIT Law and the Implementing Rules also imposes a unified
EIT of 25% on both foreign invested enterprises and domestic enterprises,
effective January 1, 2008. As a result, each of our PRC subsidiaries, Tianjin
Yayi, Weinan Milkgoat, Fuping Milkgoat, and Shaanxi Milkgoat have been subject
to a 25% income tax rate in calendar year 2008, 2009 and 2010. Results of Operations Five Months Ended March 31, 2010 Compared to Five Months
Ended March 31, 2009 The following table sets forth a summary of certain key
components of our results of operations for periods indicated, in dollars and
the percentage of change from the prior period. Net Sales. Net sales for the five months ended March 31,
2010 were approximately $7.0 million, a decrease of 25.0% from the five months
ended March 31, 2009. This decrease was primarily due to the restructuring of
our product portfolio. From the end of 2009, we worked together with Trout &
Partners to streamline our product portfolio and refine our brand image in order
to position and strengthen our Milk Goat brand as the premium goat milk brand
throughout China. Thereafter, we have restructured our original product
portfolio of dozens of products and specifications and refined our marketing
strategy during the three months ended October 31, 2009. As a result, we
gradually reduced the production of original products from the end of 2009 in
anticipation of the introduction of our new products in January 2010. Our new
product portfolio consists of only ten formula products under the Milk Goat
brand with only one product specification of 600 grams. We suspended our sales
efforts in supermarkets during these few months as we transitioned from our
original product portfolio to the new one with new packaging, stock-keeping
units (SKUs), and new (higher) pricing. Our new product portfolio has only been
launched in the market since January 2010. On January 22, 2010, we held a
nationwide distributor conference after we co-hosted the "China Goat Milk
Industry Development Summit" in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. Since
our distributor conference, we have signed sales contracts with the distributors
with an aggregate expected sales value of approximately $71.4 million (including
VAT). The contracts have terms ending on December 31. 2010. -29- Cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold for the five
months ended March 31, 2010 was approximately $2.4 millions, a decrease of 18.1%
from the five months ended March 31, 2009, primarily due to the decrease in our
net sales. However, the unit cost increased by 16.1% from $ 5,743.8 per ton to $
6,665.9 per ton, primarily attributable to giveaways such as goat milk powder
tasting bags and promotional products distributed to potential customers. As
part of our new marketing strategy, our sales people distributed goat milk
powder tasting bags to potential customers in supermarkets to attract more
customers and we provided promotional products to purchasers of our new
products. To a lesser extent, increased prices of main raw materials also
contributed to the increase in our unit cost. Gross Profit. Gross profit for the five months ended
March 31, 2010 was approximately $4.6 million, a decrease of 28.1% from the five
months ended March 31, 2009. Our gross margin for the five months ended March
31, 2010 decreased to 66% compared to 68.8% for the five months ended March 31,
2009. This decrease was primarily attributable to giveaways and promotional
products distributed to potential customers. However, the gross margin of our
new product portfolio is higher than original product portfolio which partially
offset the decrease caused by giveaways and promotional products. Operating and administrative expenses. Our total
operating and administrative expenses consist primarily of sales and marketing
expenses and general and administrative expenses. Our total operating and
administrative expenses increased by approximately $2.6 million, or 96.6 % from
the five months ended March 31, 2009. Sales and marketing expenses. For the five months ended
March 31, 2010, sales and marketing expenses increased approximately 98.1% to
$3.9 million from $2.0 million for the five months ended March 31, 2009. The
increase was primarily attributable to the large increase in advertising and
promotion expenses. Advertising and promotional expenses for the five months
ended March 31, 2010 was approximately $2.7 million, an increase of 160.5% from
the five months ended March 31, 2009. Advertising expenses were approximately
$2.0 million for the five months ended March 31, 2010, an increase of 586.5%
compared with $0.3 million for the five months ended March 31, 2009. The primary
reason for the increase was that we launched our new television advertisement
campaign to promote the new product portfolio nationwide. The television
commercials started airing on January 1, 2010 on China Central Television
Channel 1 (CCTV-1) right before the channel's flagship national news program
(XinWenLianBo) at 7pm, which is generally considered one of the most valuable
prime-time advertising time slots in China. General and administrative expenses.
General and administrative expenses for the five months ended March 31, 2010
increased by 92.2% to $1.3 million from $0.7 million for the five months ended
March 31, 2009. It was primarily attributable to labor cost increase for
recruiting senior managers and professionals such as CFO, Director of Production
and compensation increase for CEO and director, professional fees increase for
engaging Earnest &Young as our SOX consultant and IT expenditures due to as
a result of the expansion of our business. Other income (expenses). Our other income (expenses)
consists primarily of interest and finance cost. Other expenses decrease by
approximately $ 0.3 million, or 44.6%, primarily attributable to the repayment
of commercial loans of approximately US$ 2.7 million and decreased deferred debt
issuance cost amortization. Income Tax. Our income tax in the five months ended
March 31, 2010 decreased by 107.9%, from an expense of approximately $0.9
million in the five months ended March 31, 2009 to a benefit of approximately
$0.1 million in the five months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily
attributable to losses experienced in the five months ended March 31, 2010. Net Income(loss). As a result of the foregoing, net
income attributable to Yayi International Inc. decreased by 143.8% in the five
months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to the five months ended March 31,
2009. -30- Twelve Months Ended March 31, 2010 Compared to Twelve Months
Ended March 31, 2009 (Unaudited and Unreviewed) The following table sets forth a summary of certain key
components of our results of operations for periods indicated, in dollars and
the percentage of change from the prior period. Net Sales. Net sales for the year ended March 31, 2010
were approximately $22.2 million, a decrease of 9.9% from the prior year. As
described above, we gradually reduced the production of original products from
the end of 2009 in anticipation of the introduction of our new products in
January 2010. We suspended our sales efforts in supermarkets when we
transitioned from our original product portfolio to the new one with new
packaging, stock-keeping units (SKUs), and new (higher) pricing. Our new product
portfolio has only been launched in the market since January 2010. As a result,
our net sales reduced for the year ended March 31, 2010 as compared with the
prior year. Cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold for the year
ended March 31, 2010 was approximately $7.3 million, a decrease of 12.2% from
prior year, mainly due to reduced production costs as a result of our
acquisition of a supplier of raw goat milk, Fuping Milkgoat in August, 2008. Gross Profit. Gross profit for the year ended March 31
2010 was approximately $15.0 million, a decrease of 8.8% from prior year. This
decrease was primarily attributable to our lower net sales, partially offset by
the decrease in our cost of goods sold primarily as a result of our acquisition
of Fuping Milkgoat in August, 2008. Such vertical integration of our operations
allowed us to benefit from a higher profit margin for our products. Operating Expenses. Our total operating expenses consist
primarily of sales and marketing expenses and general and administrative
expenses. Total operating expenses increased approximately 45.6% to $10.4
million for the year ended March 31,2010 from $ 7.2 million for the year ended
March 31, 2009. Sales and marketing expenses. For the year ended March
31, 2010, the sales and marketing expense increased approximately 42.4% to $7.7
million from $5.4 million for the year ended March 31, 2009. The increase was
primarily attributable to the large increase in advertising and promotion
expenses. Advertising and promotion expenses were approximately $4.5 million for
the year ended March 31, 2010, an increase of 102.0% compared with $2.2 million
for the year ended March 31, 2009. The primary reason for the increase was that
we launched our new television advertisement campaign to promote the new product
portfolio nationwide. The television commercials started airing on January 1,
2010 on China Central Television Channel 1 (CCTV-1) right before the channel's
flagship national news program (XinWenLianBo) at 7pm, which is generally
considered one of the most valuable prime-time advertising time slots in China.
-31- General and administrative expenses For the year ended
March 31, 2010, the general and administrative expenses increased by 55.5% to
$2.7 million from $1.8 million for the year ended March 31, 2009. The increase
was primarily attributable to the increase in professional fees paid to
professional firms for legal service, audit service and SOX compliance from
$0.34 million to $0.84 million which accounted for 50.6% of the total variance.
In addition, $0.18 million increase was due to the increase of compensation of
our CEO and director since June 2009. Other income (Expenses). Our other income (expenses)
consists primarily of merger cost, interest and finance cost. Other expense for
the year ended March 31, 2010 decreased by 75.4% from the prior year mainly due
to $3.5 million of merger cost occurred in June 2008. The interest expense
decreased mainly because the repayment of commercial loans for the year ended
March 31, 2010. Income Tax. Income tax for the year ended March 31, 2010
decreased by approximately 47.3% from prior year. The decrease is primarily
attributable to the decrease in sales and taxable income for the year ended
March 31, 2010. Net Income(loss). As a result of the foregoing, net
income attributable to Yayi International Inc. decreased by 2.2% for the year
ended March 31, 2010 as compared to prior year. Fiscal Year Ended October 31, 2009 Compared to Fiscal Year
Ended October 31, 2008 The following table sets forth a summary of certain key
components of our results of operations for periods indicated, in dollars and
the percentage of change from the prior period. Net Sales. Net sales for fiscal 2009 were approximately
$24.8 million, an increase of 14% from the prior year. The increase is mainly
attributable to the increase in the volume of products sold which was partially
offset by a decrease of approximately 1% in the weighted average price at which
products were sold. The volume of products sold increased because of the
improvement of incentives for sales team that resulted in better sales efforts
coupled with better advertisement and promotion. The weighted average price
decreased because of difference in portfolio mix of products between the two
years. Changes in the currency exchange rate and the weakening of the U.S.
dollar also contribute to 18% of the increase in net sales. Gross Profit. Gross profit for fiscal 2009 was
approximately $16.82 million, an increase of 19% from the prior year. Our gross
margin for 2009 was 68% compared to 65% for 2008. Approximately 19% of the
increase in gross profit is attributable to changes in the currency exchange
rate; the balance of the increase is primarily attributable to the increase in
net sales (excluding the currency effects) coupled with reduced material costs
as a result of our acquisition in August, 2008 of a supplier of raw goat milk,
Fuping Milkgoat. Such vertical integration of our operations allows us to
benefit from a higher profit margin for our products. -32- Operating Expenses. Our total operating expenses consist
primarily of sales and marketing expenses and general and administrative
expenses. Total operating expenses increased approximately 23% to $7.7 million
from $ 6.3 million for the year ended October 31, 2008. Sales and marketing expenses. For the year ended October
31, 2009, the sales and marketing expense increased approximately 10.7% to $5.7
million from $5.2 million for the year ended October 31, 2008. The increase is
primarily attributable to (i) marketing strategy consulting fee, which increased
by about $512,000 because the Company has engaged Trout & Partners China to
assist in streamlining its product portfolio and refining its brand image in
order to position and strengthen its Milk Goat brand as the premium goat milk
brand throughout China; (ii) freight costs, which increased because of the
volume of product shipped;(iii) Labor cost increased due to the rise in the
average sales pay rate and commission paid to our sales representatives along
with the sales revenue increase. The increase of selling and marketing expenses
is partially offset by the decrease of charges by retail stores, because the
Company has been in the process of streamlining its products. The Company
consciously restrained its marketing activities in the fourth quarter. General and administrative expenses For the year ended
March 31, 2009, the general and administrative expenses increased by 78.1% to
$2.0 million from $1.1 million for the year ended October 31, 2008. It was
primarily attributable to labor cost increase for recruiting senior managers and
professionals such as CFO, Director of Production and pay increase for CEO and
executive director, professional fees increase for engaging E&Y as our SOX
Consultant and IT expenditures due to as a result of the expansion of our
business. Other income (Expenses). Our other income (expenses)
consists primarily of interest and finance cost. Interest expense in fiscal 2009
increased by 19% from the prior year mainly because of our increased net
borrowings although rates of interest on such borrowings is slightly lower than
that of the corresponding period in the prior year. Changes in currency exchange
rates had only a minimal impact on changes in interest expense. See notes 9 and
11 of our consolidated financial statements. Accretion of debt discount and
deferred financing cost increased by 649% from prior year which is mainly due to
the fact that the convertible notes beneficial period is from June 2008 to
December 2009. Income Tax. Income tax in fiscal 2009 increased by
approximately 35% from the corresponding period in the prior year. The increase
is primarily attributable to the increased in sales and taxable income in fiscal
2009. Net Income(loss). Net income increased by approximately
$3.57 million to approximately $5.4 million in fiscal 2009. After excluding
merger costs in the prior year, accretion of debt discount and deferred
financing cost of convertible notes and liquidated damage of convertible notes
accrued this year , net income increased by approximately $750,000, or 14%, as a
result of the factors described above. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES As of March 31, 2010, we had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $4.7million and working capital of approximately $16.6 million.
Included in working capital are advances of approximately $19.0 million,
principally to Tianjin Mengyang Biological Development Co., Ltd, or Tianjin
Mengyang, for, among other things, (i) the purchase of a processing plant and a
warehouse, and (ii) the purchase of an office building and staff apartment, in Tinajin Jinhai Economic Development Zone. We intend to, and are in the process of, expanding our
administrative and production facilities to meet our current needs and
anticipated increased demand for our products. In connection therewith, we plan
to spend approximately $18.7 million during the fiscal years ending March 31,
2011 through 2012 ($11.9 million during the fiscal year ending March 31, 2011
and $6.8 million during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012). The aggregate
amount of $18.7 million in capital expenditure is mainly used for the following
items: the purchase of machinery and equipment for the new powder processing
plant in Weinan, Shaanxi and machinery and equipment in Fuping, Shaanxi with the
capital expenditure of $10.0million; the purchase of livestock, the construction
of goat farms and goat milk collection stations in an amount of $3.6million; the
packing equipment purchase and renovation of the office and staff apartment
building in Jinghai, Tianjin in an amount of $2.7 million; the purchase of IT
equipment and system including computers and computer servers in an
amount of $0.35million, and User Friendly version U9 accounting software in an
amount of $0.18million. -33- On June 3, 2010, the Company renewed its loans from Tianjin
Rural Cooperative Bank, Kexin Branch, or Rural Bank by entering into four
separate short-term loan agreements with Rural Bank. Pursuant to the loan
agreements, Rural Bank agreed to loan to the Company an aggregate RMB 30,000,000
(approximately $4,400,000) for the use as working capital. The loan has a
monthly interest rate of 0.48675% and the interests must be paid on a quarterly
basis on the 20th of the last month of each quarter. The loan expires
on June 2, 2011 but can be renewed upon the written consent by Rural Bank. Under
the terms of the loan agreements, the Company is subject to customary
affirmative and negative covenants. The loan may be accelerated and Rural Bank
may demand immediate payment of the principal and accrued interests upon the
occurrence of an event of default which includes, among other things, a failure
to make principal or interest payments, a failure to comply with other covenants
and certain events of liquidation or bankruptcy. We believe that our currently available working capital should
be adequate to sustain our operations at our current levels through at least the
next twelve months. However, depending on our future needs, changes and trends
in the capital markets affecting our shares and the Company, we may determine to
seek additional debt financing from commercial bank or equity financing in the
private or public markets. The following table summarizes information about our net cash
flows for the following periods. (Audited) (Audited) (Audited) Operating Activities: Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $3.9
million for the five months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to net cash
provided by operating activities of approximately $3.3 million for the five
months ended March 31, 2009. Net cash used in operating activities for the five
months ended March 31, 2010 was mainly due to net loss of 0.9 million, non-cash
items not affecting transition period cash flows of $0.3 million and a $3.2
million increase in working capital. The changes in working capital for the five
months ended March 31, 2010 were primarily related to a $0.9 million increase in
prepaid expenses due to the increase in slotting fees for new product portfolio,
a $0.6 million increase in advance due to prepayment for raw goat milk powder
and other materials, a $0.5 million increase in accounts receivable due to our
extended credit term for new products promotion, a $0.6 million decrease in
accounts payable due to the shorten payment term of main materials. Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately
$6.53 million and $3.82 million for fiscal 2009 and 2008, respectively.
Approximately 9% of the increase in the net cash provided by operating
activities is attributable to the change in currency exchange rates; the balance
of the increase is attributable primarily to the increase of net income and to a
lesser extent attribute to the decrease in inventory. Inventory decreased due to
increased sales coupled with more judicious efforts in replenishing our
inventory. The increase in the net cash provided by operating activities was
partially offset by increases in accounts receivable. Accounts receivable
increase as a result of the increase in sales. -34- Investing Activities: Net cash used in investing activities for the five months ended
March 31, 2010 was approximately $2.0 million, a decrease of approximately $2.5
million from the five months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease in net cash
used in investing activities is primarily because we prepaid $ 3.8 million for
the construction of Jing Hai factory and warehouse during the five months ended
March 31, 2009, but did not make any same kind of payment during the five months
ended March 31, 2010. During the five months ended March 31, 2010, there was
also an increase in capital spending of approximately $2.0 million, among which
$0.4 million was for purchasing equipment, $0.6 million was for purchasing
livestock and $0.80 million was for acquisition of land-use rights from Shaanxi
Province. See note 5 of our consolidated financial statements. Net cash used in investing activities for fiscal 2009 was
approximately $12.40 million, an increase of approximately $6.74 million from
2008. Approximately 12% of the increase is attributable to the change in
currency exchange rates while the balance is attributable primarily to advances
to Tianjin Mengyang for the construction and development of certain facilities.
In addition, the increase came from our construction of farm facilities located
in Weinan, Shaanxi and to a lesser extent attribute to. the purchase of
equipment for enhancing our production capacity in Weinan and Tianjin in fiscal
2010. Financing Activities: Net cash provided by financing activities for the five months
ended March 31, 2010 was approximately $0.2 million compared to approximately
$1.6 million of net cash provided by these activities during the corresponding
period in the prior year. The change is primarily attributable to the repayment
of approximately $2.7 million of bank loan, which is $2.0 million more than the
corresponding period in the prior year, partially offset by the borrowings of
approximately $3.0 million of bank loan that is $0.6 million more than the
corresponding period in the prior year. See note 9 of our consolidated financial
statements. Net cash provided by financing activities for the fiscal year
ended October 31, 2009 was approximately $15.4 million compared to approximately
$2.4 million of net cash provided by these activities in the fiscal year 2008.
The change is primarily attributable to issuing and selling to the investor,
SAIF 1,530,612 shares of the Companys Series A Preferred Stock at a price per
share of $9.80 for an aggregate purchase price of $15.0 million. Critical Accounting Policies The consolidated financial statements include the financial
statements of us and our subsidiaries. All transactions and balances among us
and our subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation. Certain amounts
included in or affecting our consolidated financial statements and related
disclosures must be estimated, requiring us to make certain assumptions with
respect to values or conditions that cannot be known with certainty at the time
the financial statements are prepared. These estimates and assumptions affect
the amounts we report for assets and liabilities, our disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. We routinely
evaluate these estimates, utilizing historical experience, consulting with
experts and utilizing other methods we consider reasonable in the particular
circumstances. Nevertheless, actual results may differ significantly from our
estimates. Any effects on our business, financial position or results of
operations resulting from revisions to these estimates are recorded in the
period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known. -35- Estimates of allowances for bad debts We must
periodically review our trade and other receivables to determine if all are
collectible or whether an allowance is required for possible uncollectible
balances. When determining the allowances, a number of factors are considered,
including the length of time the receivable is past due, past loss history, the
counter partys current ability to pay and the general condition of the economy
and industry. Accounts receivable are written off if reasonable collection
efforts are not successful. Estimate of the useful lives of property and equipment and
biological assets We must estimate the useful lives and residual values of
our property and equipment and biological assets. We must also review property
and equipment and biological assets for possible impairment whenever events and
circumstances indicate that the carrying value of those assets may not be
recovered from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from their use
and eventual disposition. Inventory We value inventories at the lower of cost or
market value. We determine the cost of inventories using the weighted average
cost method and include any related production overhead costs incurred in
bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. We must
determine whether we have any excessive, slow moving, obsolete or impaired
inventory. We perform this review quarterly, which requires management to
estimate the future demand of our products and market conditions. We make
provisions on the value of inventories at period end equal to the difference
between the cost and the estimated market value. If actual market conditions
change, additional provisions may be required. In addition, we may write off
some provisions if we later sell some of the subject inventory. Goodwill We must test goodwill annually for impairment
or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might
be impaired. We perform impairment tests at the reporting unit level to identify
potential goodwill impairment. We recognize a goodwill impairment loss in our
statements of operations and comprehensive income when the carrying amount of
goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. We perform the impairment test at the
end of the fourth quarter each year. -36- Land use rights Land use rights are stated at cost less
accumulated amortization. Amortization is charged using the straight-line method
over the period of lease term. Revenue recognition Revenue from the sale of goods is
recognized on the transfer of risks and rewards of ownership, which generally
coincides with the time when the goods are shipped to customers and the title
has passed. Net sales of products represent the invoiced value of goods, net of
value added taxes ("VAT"), sales returns, trade discounts and allowances. Prior to January 1, 2009, the Company allows for exchange of
goods that are near expiration. The Company provided for an allowance for return
products since the Company has experienced returns in the normal course of
business. Subsequent to January 1, 2009, the Company revised its sales contracts
to disallow returns for sales made after January 1, 2009. The Company treats temporary price reduction programs,
merchandising fees, co-operative advertising and slotting expenses as a
reduction in gross sales. The Company records the liability when pervasive
evidence exists that the Company and the customer or distributor have reached
agreement and that an advertising action will result in an expense to the
company in the near future. The liability is maintained until the customer takes
the deduction against payments due. In addition, in accordance with ASC 605-50
in accounting for customer payments and incentives, if the temporary price
reduction recorded is in excess of gross sale for any retailer, the amount in
excess will be recorded as selling expense. Slotting fees - The Company accounts for slotting fees in
accordance with ASC 605-50. ASC 605-50 requires that cash considerations,
including sales incentives, given by a vendor to a customer is presumed to be a
reduction of the selling price, and therefore, should be characterized as a
reduction to gross sales. This presumption is overcome and the consideration
would be characterized as an expense incurred if the vendor receives an
identifiable benefit in exchange for the consideration and the fair value of
that identifiable benefit can be reasonably estimated. Furthermore, if the
consideration recorded is in excess of gross sale of any retailer, the amount in
excess will be recorded as selling expense. The Company treats one-time slotting fees paid to retails
shops who are direct customers of the Companys distributors as a reduction in
gross sales. The Company pays the fees upon signing of contract with the
distributors and records them as prepayment. These fees are amortized over a
twelve months period for retail shops. The amortized amount is taken as a
reduction against revenue. Slotting fees of $151,619 and $0 were recorded as a reduction
of sales revenue for the five months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. -37- Effects of Inflation Inflation and changing prices have not had a material effect on
our business and we do not expect that inflation or changing prices will
materially affect our business in the foreseeable future. However, our
management will closely monitor the price change and continually maintain
effective cost control in operations. 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 or capital expenditures or capital resources that is
material to an investor in our securities. -38- Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Standards Codification In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")
issued a standard that established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification
(the "ASC"), which effectively amended the hierarchy of U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP") and established only two levels of GAAP,
authoritative and nonauthoritative. All previously existing accounting standard
documents were superseded, and the ASC became the single source of
authoritative, nongovernmental GAAP, except for rules and interpretive releases
of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), which are sources of
authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC
accounting literature not included in the ASC became non-authoritative. The ASC
was intended to provide access to the authoritative guidance related to a
particular topic in one place. New guidance issued subsequent to June 30, 2009
will be communicated by the FASB through Accounting Standards Updates. The ASC
was effective for financial statements for interim or annual reporting periods
ending after September 15, 2009. We adopted and applied the provisions of the
ASC for the Companys fiscal year ended October 31, 2009, and have eliminated
references to pre-ASC accounting standards throughout the consolidated financial
statements. The adoption of the ASC did not have a material impact on the
Companys consolidated financial statements. Fair Value Measurement In January 2010, the FASB issued authoritative guidance to
improve disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance amends previous
guidance on fair value measurements to add new requirements for disclosures
about transfers into and out of Levels 1 and 2 and separate disclosures about
purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements relating to Level 3 measurement on
a gross basis rather than on a net basis as currently required. This guidance
also clarifies existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation
and about inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This
guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December
15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide the Level 3 activities of
purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which will be
effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2010.
Early application is permitted and, in the period of initial adoption, entities
are not required to provide the amended disclosures for any previous periods
presented for comparative purposes. The adoption of this pronouncement did not
have a significant impact on the Companys financial statements. Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary a Scope
Clarification In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update
(ASU) No. 2010-02 update to address the accounting and reporting for Decreases
in ownership of a subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does
not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership
provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and removes the potential conflict between
guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss recognition
guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity will be required to follow
the amended guidance beginning in the period that it first adopts FASB ASC 810
(now included in Subtopic 810-10). For those entities that have already adopted
FASB ASC 810, the amendments are effective at the beginning of the first interim
or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments
should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted
FASB ASC 810. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on
the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company. Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and
Cash In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update
(ASU) No. 2010-01 update to address the accounting for distributions to
shareholders with components of stock and cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging
Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a
distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock
with a limit on the amount of cash that will be distributed is not a stock
dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260 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 did not have a material
effect on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the
Company. -39- Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update
(ASU) No. 2009-05 update that amended the accounting standard for fair value
measurements. Specifically, Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-05 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 following methods: 1)
a valuation technique that uses a) the quoted price of the identical liability
when traded as an asset or b) quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar
liabilities when traded as assets and/or 2) a valuation technique that is
consistent with the principles of the accounting standard on fair value
measurements (e.g. an income approach or market approach). Accounting Standards
Update (ASU) No. 2009-05 also clarifies that when estimating the fair value of a
liability, a reporting entity is not required to adjust to include inputs
relating to the existence of transfer restrictions on that liability. This
standard will be effective for the first interim period beginning November 1,
2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its
consolidated financial statements. Convertible Debt Instruments In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 470-20 related to
convertible debt instruments. FASB ASC 470-20 requires the issuer of certain
convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash (or other assets) on
conversion, including partial cash settlement, to separately account for the
liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the instrument in
a manner that reflects the issuer's non-convertible debt borrowing rate. FASB
ASC 470-20 is effective for the Companys fiscal year beginning November 1,
2009, and retrospective application is required for all periods presented. The
adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its consolidated
financial statements. Business Combination In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC 805 which related to
business combinations. FASB ASC 805 expands the definition of a business and a
business combination; requires recognition of assets acquired, liabilities
assumed, and contingent consideration at their fair value on the acquisition
date with subsequent changes recognized in earnings; requires
acquisition-related expenses and restructuring costs to be recognized separately
from the business combination and expensed as incurred; requires in-process
research and development to be capitalized at fair value as an indefinite-lived
intangible asset; and requires that changes in accounting for deferred tax asset
valuation allowances and acquired income tax uncertainties after the measurement
period be recognized as a component of provision for taxes. FASB ASC 805 also
establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature and
financial effects of the business combination. In April 2009, the FASB issued
FASB ASC 805 which clarified the accounting for pre-acquisition contingencies.
This standard is effective for the Company beginning November 1, 2009 and will
change the accounting for business combinations on a prospective basis. The
Company did not have any business combination during the year ended March 31,
2010; therefore the adoption of this standard had no impact on the Companys
consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of
Convertible Debt issuance or Other Financing In October 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 470-20 update to
address equity-classified share lending arrangements on an entitys own shares,
when executed in contemplation of a convertible debt offering or other
financing. This accounting update addresses how to account for the share-lending
arrangement and the effect, if any, that the loaned shares have on
earnings-per-share calculations. The share lending arrangement is required to be
measured at fair value and recognized as an issuance cost associated with the
convertible debt offering or other financing. Earnings-per-share calculations would not be
affected by the loaned shares unless the share borrower defaults on the
arrangement and does not return the shares. If counterparty default is probable,
the share lender is required to recognize an expense equal to the then fair
value of the unreturned shares, net of the fair value of probable recoveries.
FASB ASC 470-20 is effective for share lending agreements entered into after
June 15, 2009, and effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those
years beginning on or after December 15, 2009 for all other outstanding
arrangements, with retrospective application to those arrangements on the
effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard
upon its adoption on the Companys consolidated financial statements. -40- Embedded credit derivative On March 5, 2010, the FASB issued authoritative guidance to
clarify the type of embedded credit derivative that is exempt from embedded
derivative bifurcation requirements. Specifically, only one form of embedded
credit derivative qualifies for the exemption one that is related only to the
subordination of one financial instrument to another. As a result, entities that
have contracts containing an embedded credit derivative feature in a form other
than such subordination may need to separately account for the embedded credit
derivative feature. This guidance also has transition provisions, which permit
entities to make a special one-time election to apply the fair value option to
any investment in a beneficial interest in securitized financial assets,
regardless of whether such investments contain embedded derivative features.
This guidance is effective on the first day of the first fiscal quarter
beginning after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted at the beginning of
any fiscal quarter beginning after March 5, 2010. This amendment is not expected
to have a material impact on the Companys financial statements. Share-based payment awards In March 2010, FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement
regarding the effect of denominating the exercise price of a share-based payment
awards in the currency of the market in which the underlying equity securities
trades and that currency is different from (1) entitys functional currency, (2)
functional currency of the foreign operation for which the employee provides
services, and (3) payroll currency of the employee. The guidance clarifies that
an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the
currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entitys equity
securities trades should be considered an equity award assuming all other
criteria for equity classification are met. The pronouncement will be effective
for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010, and will
be applied prospectively. Affected entities will be required to record a
cumulative catch-up adjustment for all awards outstanding as of the beginning of
the annual period in which the guidance is adopted. This amendment is not
expected to have a material impact on the Companys financial statements. The milestone method of revenue recognition In April 2010, the FASB issued an authoritative pronouncement
regarding the milestone method of revenue recognition. The scope of this
pronouncement is limited to arrangements that include milestones relating to
research or development deliverables. The pronouncement specifies criteria that
must be met for a vendor to recognize consideration that is contingent upon
achievement of a substantive milestone in its entirety in the period in which
the milestone is achieved. The criteria apply to milestones in arrangements
within the scope of this pronouncement regardless of whether the arrangement is
determined to have single or multiple deliverables or units of accounting. The
pronouncement will be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within
those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early application is
permitted. Companies can apply this guidance prospectively to milestones
achieved after adoption. However, retrospective application to all prior periods
is also permitted. This amendment is not expected to have a material impact on
the Companys financial statements. Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by
the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a
future date are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated
financial statements upon adoption. ITEM

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. (a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and
Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our chief executive
officer and chief financial officer, Ms. Li Liu and Ms. Veronica Jing Chen,
respectively, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and
procedures. The term disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other
procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to
be disclosed by a company in the reports, such as this report, that it files or
submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported,
within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure
controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the
reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and
communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and
principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no
matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of
achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in
evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Based on that evaluation, Ms. Li Liu and Ms. Veronica Jing Chen concluded that
as of March 31, 2010, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective
due to the significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial
reporting for the period as disclosed below. (b) Managements annual report on internal control over
financial reporting Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Internal
control over financial reporting refers to the process designed by, or under the
supervision of, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, and
effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide
reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and
the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
U.S. GAAP, and includes those policies and procedures that: pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable
detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of
our assets; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are
being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management and
directors; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or
timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our
assets that could have a material effect on the financial
statements. -42- Management assessed our internal control over financial
reporting as of March 31, 2010. Management's assessment of internal control over
financial reporting was conducted using the criteria in Internal Control -
Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on that evaluation, our management concluded
that our internal controls over financial reporting as of March 31, 2010 were
not effective due to the following significant deficiencies: Our internal audit function is significantly deficient
due to insufficient qualified resources and appropriate system to perform
such function. Therefore, our ability to prevent and control lapses and
errors in our accounting function could not be rendered effectively. Our current accounting staff is relatively inexperienced
with respect to U.S. GAAP and needs substantial training to meet the higher
demands of being a U.S. public company. In order to correct the foregoing significant deficiencies,
during the five months ended March 31, 2010, we have taken and are taking the
following remediation measures that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting: We have engaged a third party professional consultant, as
announced on November 17, 2009, to assist us in assessing, improving and
monitoring our internal control over financial reporting. We have been
actively working with the external consultant to assess our data
collection, financial reporting, and control procedures and to strengthen
our internal controls over financial reporting. We are committed to develop a comprehensive and
risk-based internal audit function within the Company. Due to the scarcity
of qualified candidates with extensive experience in U.S. GAAP reporting
and accounting in the region, we have engaged an external professional
consultancy firm to assist the management in developing the internal audit
system. At the same time, we have employed experienced staff with respect
to U.S. GAAP-based reporting. We have enhanced our efforts to hire
sufficient internal audit resources with assistance from recruiters and
through referrals. Ms. Veronica Jing Chen was appointed as our new Chief
Financial Officer, effective February 24, 2010, who is a seasoned
executive with more than 20 years of experience in accounting, financial
management, and general management of several U.S.-listed Chinese
companies. Ms. Ping An was appointed as our senior finance manager,
effective April 19, 2010, who has more than five years experience in a
Big Four Accounting firm - Deloitte & Touch Tianjin.
Our management is committed to improving our internal controls.
We believe that the foregoing steps will remediate the significant deficiencies
identified above, and we will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these
steps and make any changes that our management deems appropriate to put
effective controls in place. Our management does not believe that these significant
deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting had a material
effect on our financial condition or results of operations or caused our
financial statements for the five months ended March 31, 2010 to contain a
material misstatement. This transition report on Form 10-K does not include an
attestation report of the company's registered public accounting firm regarding
internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject
to attestation by the company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to
temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the
company to provide only management's report in this transition report on Form
10-K. (c) Changes in internal control over financial
reporting We will regularly review our system of internal control over
financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve
controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective
internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as
implementing new and more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and
migrating processes. -43- Except as described above, during the five months ended March
31, 2010, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial
reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect
materially, our internal control over financial reporting. ITEM

Ms. Li Liu, Mr. Fung Shek, Ms. Cili Yan, Mr. Kenneth Jue Lee and Mr. Gang Sheng.
All Board action requires the approval of a majority of the directors in
attendance at a meeting at which a quorum is present. We currently do not have standing audit, nominating or
compensation committees. Our board of directors handles the functions that would
otherwise be handled by each of the committees. We intend, however, to establish
an audit committee, a nominating committee and a compensation committee of the
board of directors as soon as practicable. We envision that the audit committee
will be primarily responsible for reviewing the services performed by our
independent auditors, evaluating our accounting policies and our system of
internal controls. The nominating committee would be primarily responsible for
nominating directors and setting policies and procedures for the nomination of
directors. The nominating committee would also be responsible for overseeing the

Section 16(A) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Under U.S. securities laws, directors, certain executive
officers and persons holding more than 10% of our common stock must report their
initial ownership of the common stock, and any changes in that ownership, to the
SEC. The SEC has designated specific due dates for these reports. Based solely
on our review of copies of such reports filed with the SEC by and written
representations of our sole director and executive offers, we believe that our
directors and executive offers filed the required reports pursuant to Section
16(a) of the Securities on time during the five months ended March 31, 2010.
-47- Code of Ethics Our board of directors has adopted a code of ethics and
business conduct that applies to members of our board of directors, officers and
other employees. The code of ethics addresses, among other things, ethical
conduct, conflicts of interest, compliance with laws, regulations and policies,
including disclosure requirements under the federal securities laws,
confidentiality, trading on inside information, and reporting of violations of
the code. A copy of the code of ethics and business conduct has been filed as
Exhibit 14 to our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB filed on March 31, 2008. We are
in the process of building up the Company website. Once our website is
available, we will make the code of ethics available on the website. Thereafter,
any amendments or waivers to the code of ethics will be posted on our website
within four business days of such amendment or waiver. Until such time, however,
any amendments or waivers to our code of ethics will be filed with the SEC in a
Current Report on Form 8-K. -48- ITEM

AND SUBSIDIARIES FOR THE FIVE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2010 AND 2009 INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS F-1 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Board of Directors and We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of
Yayi International Inc. (the Company) as of March 31, 2010, October 31, 2009
and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive
income (loss), stockholders' equity and cash flows for the five months ended
March 31, 2010 and for the years ended October 31, 2009 and 2008. The Companys
management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards
require that we plan and perform the audit 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 audit 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 Companys internal control
over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, 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 consolidated financial position of
the Company as of March 31, 2010, October 31, 2009 and 2008, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the five
months ended March 31, 2010 and for the years ended October 31, 2009 and 2008,
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States

as Ardmore Holding Corporation or Ardmore, was originally organized under the
laws of the state of Delaware in 1986 under the name of a predecessor
corporation which engaged in a software development and consulting service
business. During 2007 and 2006, Ardmore sold 875,000 post-stock split adjusted
shares to Tryant, LLC, a then unrelated party, which represented over 85% of
Ardmores outstanding shares. Subsequently, Ardmore's management decided to wind
up all business operations related to the former products sold by the
predecessor corporation. On April 16, 2007, the name of the predecessor
corporation was changed to Ardmore Holding Corporation. From April 16, 2007
until June 6, 2008 when the Company completed a reverse acquisition transaction
with Charleston Industrial Limited (Charleston), the Company was a blank check
company and did not engage in active business operations other than its search
for, and evaluation of, potential business opportunities for acquisition or
participation. The Company changed its fiscal year from December 31 to October
31. The Company amended its articles of incorporation on September 12, 2008 and
changed its name to Yayi International Inc. On June 6, 2008, Ardmore, its wholly owned subsidiary, Ardmore
Acquisition Corp. (Ardmore Acquisition), Charleston Industrial Ltd.,
(Charleston) and Tryant LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and at such
time the holder of a majority of Ardmores outstanding shares of common stock,
consummated a merger pursuant to which Ardmore Acquisition was merged into
Charleston and Charleston became Ardmores wholly owned subsidiary. Charleston
is the owner of Tianjin Yayi Industrial Co., Ltd. (Tianjin Yayi), an entity
organized under the laws of the Peoples Republic of China and as a result of
this merger, Ardmore became the owner of Tianjin Yayi. Pursuant to the merger,
all 50,000 shares of Charlestons stock were exchanged for 22,325,000 shares
newly issued common stock of Ardmore. Accordingly, all references to shares of
Charlestons common stock and per share amounts have been retroactively restated
to reflect the equivalent numbers of Ardmore shares. Charleston thereby became
the Companys wholly owned subsidiary and the former stockholders of Charleston
became the Companys controlling stockholders. Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States, the merger is considered to be a capital transaction in substance,
rather than a business combination. That is, the merger is equivalent to the
issuance of stock by Charleston for the net monetary assets of Ardmore,
accompanied by a recapitalization, and is accounted for as a change in capital
structure. Accordingly, the accounting for the merger will be identical to that
resulting from a reverse acquisition, except that no goodwill will be recorded.
Under reverse takeover accounting, the post reverse acquisition comparative
historical financial statements of the legal acquirer, Ardmore, are those of the
legal acquiree, Charleston and subsidiary, which are considered to be the
accounting acquirer. Charleston Industrial Limited Charleston is a limited liability company organized under the
laws of British Virgin Islands on October 31, 2007 in anticipation of a business
combination with a U.S. reporting company. On January 15, 2008, Charleston acquired Tianjin Yayi and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Weinan Milkgoat Production Co., Limited (Weinan
Milkgoat). Under the terms of the merger agreement, all stockholders of Tianjin
Yayi are entitled to receive a dividend from Charleston in the amount of
RMB30,500,000 (equivalent to $4,461,608) for all of the shares of Tianjin Yayi.
Since the ownership of Charleston and Tianjin Yayi are substantially the same,
the merger was accounted for as a transaction between entities under common
control, whereby Charleston recognized the assets and liabilities of Tianjin
Yayi transferred at their carrying amounts. F-14 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. Organization and Nature of Business - Continued Tianjin
Yayi Industrial Co., Limited Tianjin Yayi is a Chinese enterprise organized in the Peoples
Republic of China (PRC) in May 1994 in accordance with the Laws of the

Tianjin Municipal Government to increase its registered capital by $1,170,258
(RMB8,000,000) to $14,335,659 (RMB98,000,000), which amount was injected in

owned the remaining interest of 0.5% amounting to $1,463 (equivalent to RMB
10,000). Weinan Milkgoat engages in processing and distribution of goat milk.

Weinan Milkgoat amounting to $437,384 (RMB 2,990,000) while Liu Li transferred
her 0.5% interest in Weinan Milkgoat to Tianjin Yayi. As a result, Tianjin Yayi
owns 100% shares of Weinan Milkgoat with a registered capital of $731,411(RMB
5,000,000). Fuping Milkgoat Dairy Co., Ltd. (formerly Fuping Dongyang
Dairy Co., Ltd.) Fuping Milkgoats principal activity is to purchase raw liquid

Yayi acquired Fuping Milkgoat Dairy Co., Ltd. (Fuping Milkgoat) for $620,360
(RMB 4,240,846). As a result, Tianjin Yayi owns 100% shares of Fuping Dongyang
with a registered capital of $731,411 (RMB 5,000,000). The acquisition of Fuping Milkgoat was accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting. In accordance with this method, the results of
Fuping Milkgoat have been included in the Companys consolidated financial
statements from the date of acquisition, August 8, 2008. The following unaudited pro forma financial information
presents the consolidated results of the Company as though the acquisition of
Fuping Milkgoat was completed as at the beginning of year ended October 31,
2008: F-15 Shaanxi Milkgoat Dairy Co., Ltd On September 9, 2009, Tianjin Yayi formed a wholly-owned

Weinan City, Shaanxi Province with a registered capital of $731,411
(RMB5,000,000). Shaanxi Milkgoats principal activity is to purchase raw liquid goat milk and processing it into raw
goat milk power. Shaanxi Milkgoat increased its registered capital by $3,657,056
(RMB25,000,000) to $4,388,467 (RMB30,000,000) in 2010. 50% of it, $1,828,528
(RMB12,500,000) has been injected in February, 2010 and the balance of it
$1,828,528 (RMB12,500,000) has been injected in March, 2010. Change in Fiscal Year End In March 2010, the Company has changed its fiscal year from
October 31 to March 31. F-16 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The principal activities of Yayi International and all of its
subsidiaries (collectively, the Company) consist of manufacturing and selling
of goat milk powder. All activities of the Company are conducted principally by
its subsidiaries Tianjin Yayi, Weinan Milkgoat, Fuping Milkgoat and Shaanxi
Milkgoat operating in the PRC. Basis of Consolidation - The consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of Yayi International Inc. and its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Charleston together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Tianjin
Yayi, Weinan Milkgoat Fuping Milkgoat and Shaanxi Milkgoat. All material
intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Credit risk - The Company may be exposed to credit risk
from its cash at bank, fixed deposits, and bills and accounts receivable. Bills
and accounts receivable are subjected to credit evaluations. An allowance has
been made for estimated irrecoverable amounts determined by reference to past
default experience and the current economic environment. Cash and cash equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents
include cash on hand, cash accounts, interest bearing savings accounts and time
certificates of deposit with a maturity of three months or less when purchased.
Inventory - Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or
market, determined by the weighted average method. Work-in-progress and finished
goods inventories consist of raw materials, direct labor and overhead associated
with the manufacturing process. Trade accounts receivable - Trade accounts receivable
are stated at the amount management expects to collect from balances outstanding
at the period end. Outstanding account balances are reviewed individually for
collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all
means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is
considered remote. Allowances for doubtful accounts receivable balances are
recorded when circumstances indicate that collection is doubtful for particular
accounts receivable or as a general reserve for all accounts receivable.
Management estimates such allowances based on historical evidence such as
amounts that are subject to risk. Accounts receivable are written off if
reasonable collection efforts are not successful. Based on managements evaluation of historical experience, the
following policy for allowance of doubtful accounts is established: F-17 Livestock Livestock consists of goats for milk
production and for breeding purposes. The livestock is depreciated according to
its estimated useful lives, which is 5 years for male goats and 7 years for
female goats. The cost of raising the young goat is allocated to livestock and
depreciation starts upon reaching maturity 13 months from date of birth. Not all
young goats survive to maturity or disposition. Normal losses of young goats are
not expensed directly but allocated to the surviving young goats. When
abnormal losses of young goats occur, the accumulated costs of young goats lost
are written off in the period in which the abnormal losses occur. F-18 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued
Fair Value of Financial Instruments FASB ASC 820-10
requires disclosing fair value to the extent practicable for financial
instruments that are recognized or unrecognized in the balance sheet. The fair
value of the financial instruments disclosed herein is not necessarily
representative of the amount that could be realized or settled, nor does the
fair value amount consider the tax consequences of realization or settlement.
For certain financial instruments, including cash, accounts and
other receivables, accounts payable, short-term loans, accruals and other
payables, it was assumed that the carrying amounts approximate fair value
because of the near term maturities of such obligations. The carrying amounts of
long-term loans payable approximate fair value since the interest rate
associated with the debt approximates the current market interest rate. Property, plant and equipment-Property, plant and
equipment are stated at cost including the cost of improvements. Maintenance and
repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Assets under construction are not
depreciated until construction is completed and the assets are ready for their
intended use. Depreciation and amortization are provided on the straight-line
method based on the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or lease
term as follows: Recoverability of Long Lived Assets -The Company follows
FASB ASC 360. Long-lived assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying
amount may not be recoverable. The Company is not aware of any events or
circumstances that indicate the existence of impairment, which would be material
to the Companys financial statements. Goodwill - Goodwill represents the excess of the
purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable
intangible assets acquired in a business combination, In accordance with FASB
ASC 350-30, goodwill is no longer subject to amortization. Rather, goodwill will
be subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment, applying a
fair-value based test fair value is generally determined using a discounted cash
flow analysis. Land use rights Land use rights are stated at cost less
accumulated amortization. Amortization is charged using the straight-line method
over the period of lease term. Revenue recognition - The Company recognizes revenue on
product sales when products are delivered and the customer takes ownership and
assumes risk of loss, collection of the relevant receivable is probable,
persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and the sales price is fixed or
determinable. Net sales of products represent the invoiced value of goods, net
of value added taxes (VAT), sales returns, trade discounts and allowances. The
Company is subject to VAT which is levied on majority of the Companys products
at the rate of 17% on the invoiced value of sales. Output VAT is borne by
customers in addition to the invoiced value of sales and input VAT is borne by
the Company in addition to the invoiced value of purchases to the extent not
refunded for export sales. Input VAT paid is recoverable from output VAT charged
to customers. Prior to January 1, 2009, the Company allows for exchange of
goods that are near expiration. The Company provided for an allowance for return
products since the Company has experienced returns in the normal course of
business. Subsequent to January 1, 2009, the Company revised its sales contracts
to disallow returns for sales made after January 1, 2009. F-19 The Company treats temporary price reduction programs,
merchandising fees, co-operative advertising and slotting expenses as a
reduction in gross sales. The Company records the liability when pervasive
evidence exists that the Company and the customer or distributor have reached
agreement and that an advertising action will result in an expense to the
company in the near future. The liability is maintained until the customer takes
the deduction against payments due. In addition, in accordance with ASC 605-50
in accounting for customer payments and incentives, if the temporary price
reduction recorded is in excess of gross sale for any retailer, the amount in
excess will be recorded as selling expense. F-20 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies -
Continued Research and development - Research and development
costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses amounted to
$40,898 and $57,558 for the five months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009,
respectively,$150,101 and $111,309 for the year ended October 31, 2009 and 2008,
respectively. Advertising and promotion costs - Costs incurred in
direct-response advertising are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line
basis over the duration of the advertising campaign. As of March 31, 2010, there
was no capitalized direct-response advertising. All other advertising costs are
expensed as incurred. Advertising and promotion costs amounted to $2,727,631 and
$1,046,940 for the five months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. As
of October 31, 2009, there was no capitalized direct-response advertising. All
other advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising and promotion
costs amounted to $1,956,512 and $1,723,569 for the year ended October 31, 2009
and 2008, respectively. Comprehensive income - The Company follows FASB ASC
220-10 in reporting comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is defined as the
change in equity of a company during a period from transactions and other events
and circumstances excluding transactions resulting from investments from owners
and distributions to owners. For the Company, comprehensive income for the
periods presented includes net (loss) income and foreign currency translation
adjustments. Income taxes The Company follows FASB ASC 740 when
accounting for income taxes. Income taxes are provided on an asset and liability
approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Current tax is
based on the profit or loss from ordinary activities adjusted for items that are
non-assessable or disallowable for income tax purpose and is calculated using
tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet
date. Deferred income tax liabilities or assets are recorded to reflect the tax
consequences in future differences between the tax basis of assets and
liabilities and the financial reporting amounts at each year end. A valuation
allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all,
of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48(FIN 48), Accounting for
Uncertainty in Income Taxes, (codified in FASB Accounting Standards
Codification (ASC) 740), as of January 1, 2007. As a result of the
implementation of FIN 48, the Company made a comprehensive review of its
portfolio of tax positions in accordance with the recognition standards
established by FIN 48. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company
recognized no material adjustments to liabilities or stockholders equity. The
Company did not recognize any interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax
benefits for 5 months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, and year ended October 31,
2009 and 2008. The Company had no uncertain positions that would necessitate
recording of tax related liability. The Company is subject to examination by the
respective tax authorities. Foreign currency translation and transactions The
accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States
Dollars (US$). The Companys functional currency is the US$, while the
Charlestons functional currency is its local currency and the wholly-owned
Chinese subsidiaries functional currency is the Renminbi (RMB). The
functional currencies of the Companys foreign operations are translated into
US$ for balance sheet accounts using the current exchange rates in effect as of
the balance sheet date and for revenue and expense accounts using the
weighted-average exchange rate during the fiscal year. The translation
adjustments are recorded as a separate component of stockholders equity,
captioned accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Gains and losses
resulting from transactions denominated in foreign currencies are included in
other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations. F-21 Post-retirement and post-employment benefits - The
Companys subsidiaries contribute to a state pension plan in respect of its PRC
employees. Other than the above, neither the Company nor its subsidiary provides
any other post-retirement or post-employment benefits. Earnings Per Common Share - The Company follows FASB ASC
260-10, resulting in the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share.
Diluted earnings per common share assumes that outstanding common shares were
increased by shares issuable upon exercise of those stock warrants for which
market price exceeds the exercise price, less shares that could have been
purchased by the Company with related proceeds. F-22 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued
Use of estimates - The preparation of the Companys
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported
amounts in the financial statements and related disclosure in the accompanying
notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The financial
statements include some amounts that are based on managements best estimates
and judgments. The most significant estimates relate to warrants valuation,
discount on convertible notes, debts issuance cost, allowance for uncollectible
accounts receivable, work in process inventory valuation, inventory
obsolescence, depreciation, useful lives of property, plant and equipment,
taxes, contingencies and employee benefit plans. These estimates may be adjusted
as more current information becomes available and any adjustment could be
significant. Estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed and the effects
of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the
period they are determined to be necessary. Cost of goods sold - Cost of goods sold consists
primarily of costs of raw materials, direct labor, depreciation of plant and
machinery, and overhead associated with the manufacturing process. Shipping and handling cost - Shipping and handling costs
related to delivery of finished goods are included in other selling, general and
administrative expenses. During the five months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009,
shipping and handling costs were $137,942 and $89,011, respectively.During the
year ended October 31, 2009 and 2008, shipping and handling costs were $504,353
and $346,796, respectively. Slotting fees - The Company accounts for slotting fees
in accordance with ASC 605-50. ASC 605-50 requires that cash considerations,
including sales incentives, given by a vendor to a customer is presumed to be a
reduction of the selling price, and therefore, should be characterized as a
reduction to gross sales. This presumption is overcome and the consideration
would be characterized as an expense incurred if the vendor receives an
identifiable benefit in exchange for the consideration and the fair value of
that identifiable benefit can be reasonably estimated. Furthermore, if the
consideration recorded is in excess of gross sale of any retailer, the amount in
excess will be recorded as selling expense. The Company treats one-time slotting fees paid to retails shops
who are direct customers of the Companys distributors as a reduction in gross
sales. The Company pays the fees upon signing of contract with the distributors
and records them as prepayment. These fees are amortized over a twelve months
period. The amortized amount is taken as a reduction against revenue. Slotting fees of $151,619 and $0 were recorded as a reduction
of sales revenue for the five months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. During the
year ended October 31, 2009 and 2008, there were no slotting fees incurred. Retained earnings-appropriated - In accordance with the
relevant PRC regulations and the Companys PRC subsidiaries articles of
association, Tianjin Yayi, Weinan Milkgoat and Fuping Milkgoat are required to
allocate their respective net income to statutory surplus reserve. Statutory surplus reserve - In accordance with the
relevant laws and regulations of the PRC and the articles of associations of the
Companys PRC subsidiaries, Tianjin Yayi, Weinan Milkgoat and Fuping Milkgoat
are required to allocate 10% of their net income reported in the PRC statutory
accounts, after offsetting any prior years losses, to the statutory surplus
reserve, on an annual basis. When the balance of such reserve reaches 50% of the
respective registered capital of the subsidiaries, any further allocation is
optional. The statutory surplus reserves can be used to offset prior
years losses, if any, and may be converted into registered capital, provided
that the remaining balances of the reserve after such conversion is not less
than 25% of registered capital. The statutory surplus reserve is
non-distributable. F-23 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements Subsequent Events In May 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 855-10 on the treatment
of subsequent events which is intended to establish general standards of
accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date
but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued.
Specifically, management of a reporting entity is required to evaluate
subsequent events through the date that financial statements are issued. FASB
ASC 855-10 was effective for fiscal years and interim periods ended after June
15, 2009, and must be applied prospectively. The Company adopted this standard
in the quarter ended July 31, 2009. Subsequent events have been evaluated
through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued. Fair Value Measurement In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB ASC 820 related to fair
value measurements. FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for
measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. In
February 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 820-10 which delayed the effective date
of the fair value measurements and disclosures for all nonfinancial assets and
nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair
value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). In
August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-05,
"Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value" in relation to the fair value measurement
of liabilities. The Company adopted the applicable portions of the provisions of
the new standards as of November 1, 2008, and adopted the provision related to
the nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities on November 1, 2009. The
adoption of this standard for financial and nonfinancial assets and financial
and nonfinancial liabilities did not have a material impact on its consolidated
financial statements. Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary a Scope
Clarification In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update
(ASU) No. 2010-02 update to address the accounting and reporting for Decreases
in ownership of a subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does
not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership
provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and removes the potential conflict between
guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss recognition
guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity will be required to follow
the amended guidance beginning in the period that it first adopts FASB ASC 810
(now included in Subtopic 810-10). For those entities that have already adopted
FASB ASC 810, the amendments are effective at the beginning of the first interim
or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments
should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted
FASB ASC 810. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on
the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company.
F-24 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued
Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock
and Cash In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update
(ASU) No. 2010-01 update to address the accounting for distributions to
shareholders with components of stock and cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging
Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a
distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock
with a limit on the amount of cash that will be distributed is not a stock
dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260 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 did not have a material
effect on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the
Company. Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update
(ASU) No. 2009-05 update that amended the accounting standard for fair value
measurements. Specifically, Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-05 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 following methods: 1)
a valuation technique that uses a) the quoted price of the identical liability
when traded as an asset or b) quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar
liabilities when traded as assets and/or 2) a valuation technique that is
consistent with the principles of the accounting standard on fair value
measurements (e.g. an income approach or market approach). Accounting Standards
Update (ASU) No. 2009-05 also clarifies that when estimating the fair value of a
liability, a reporting entity is not required to adjust to include inputs
relating to the existence of transfer restrictions on that liability. This
standard will be effective for the first interim period beginning November 1,
2009. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its
consolidated financial statements. Convertible Debt Instruments In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 470-20 related to
convertible debt instruments. FASB ASC 470-20 requires the issuer of certain
convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash (or other assets) on
conversion, including partial cash settlement, to separately account for the
liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the instrument in
a manner that reflects the issuer's non-convertible debt borrowing rate. FASB
ASC 470-20 is effective for the Companys fiscal year beginning November 1,
2009, and retrospective application is required for all periods presented. The
adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its consolidated
financial statements. Useful Life of Intangible Asset In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 350-30 which amends the
factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions
used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset. FASB ASC
350-30 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early
adoption is prohibited. Application of this standard is not currently applicable
to the Company. F-25 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued
Business Combination In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC 805 which related to
business combinations. FASB ASC 805 expands the definition of a business and a
business combination; requires recognition of assets acquired, liabilities
assumed, and contingent consideration at their fair value on the acquisition
date with subsequent changes recognized in earnings; requires
acquisition-related expenses and restructuring costs to be recognized separately
from the business combination and expensed as incurred; requires in-process
research and development to be capitalized at fair value as an indefinite-lived
intangible asset; and requires that changes in accounting for deferred tax asset
valuation allowances and acquired income tax uncertainties after the measurement
period be recognized as a component of provision for taxes. FASB ASC 805 also
establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature and
financial effects of the business combination. In April 2009, the FASB issued
FASB ASC 805 which clarified the accounting for pre-acquisition contingencies.
This standard is effective for the Company beginning November 1, 2009 and will
change the accounting for business combinations on a prospective basis. The
Company did not have any business combination during the period ended March 31,
2010; therefore the adoption of this standard had no impact on the Companys
consolidated financial statements. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of
Convertible Debt issuance or Other Financing In October 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 470-20 update to
address equity-classified share lending arrangements on an entitys own shares,
when executed in contemplation of a convertible debt offering or other
financing. This accounting update addresses how to account for the share-lending
arrangement and the effect, if any, that the loaned shares have on
earnings-per-share calculations. The share lending arrangement is required to be
measured at fair value and recognized as an issuance cost associated with the
convertible debt offering or other financing. Earnings-per-share calculations
would not be affected by the loaned shares unless the share borrower defaults on
the arrangement and does not return the shares. If counterparty default is
probable, the share lender is required to recognize an expense equal to the then
fair value of the unreturned shares, net of the fair value of probable
recoveries. FASB ASC 470-20 is effective for share lending agreements entered
into after June 15, 2009, and effective for fiscal years and interim periods
within those years beginning on or after December 15, 2009 for all other
outstanding arrangements, with retrospective application to those arrangements
on the effective date. This standard was adopted on February 1, 2010 and did not
have a material impact on the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements. Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by
the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a
future date are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated
financial statements upon adoption. F-26 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 3. Other Receivables At March 31, 2010 and October 31, 2009, advance to branch

basis. United States The Company was incorporated in Delaware and is subject to
United States of America tax law. No provisions for income taxes have been made
as the Company has a taxable loss for the five months ended March 31, 2010. No
tax benefit has been realized since a valuation allowance has offset the
deferred tax asset. BVI Charleston was organized in the British Virgin Islands and is
not subject to income taxes under the current laws of the British Virgin
Islands. PRC Tianjin Yayi, Weinan Milkgoat, Fuping Milkgoat and Shaanxi
Milkgoat are subject to PRC income tax. Income tax (benefit) expense for the
five months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were ($68,846) and $869,614,
respectively. Income tax expense for the year ended October 31, 2009 and 2008
were $2,201,032 and $1,633,946, respectively. Effective January 1, 2008, the statutory PRC tax rate is 25%.
Therefore, the statutory PRC rate for the five months ended March 31, 2010 and
2009 was 25% fpr the year ended October 31, 2009 was 25%, and for the year ended
October 31, 2008 was 26.3%. The income tax provision consists of the following: F-38 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 13. Income Tax - Continued The following is a reconciliation of the tax derived by
applying the PRC Statutory Rate to the earnings before income taxes, and
comparing that to the recorded income tax provision (benefit): The components of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax
liability are as follows: 252,646 F-39 F-40 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 13. Income Tax Continued The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of March
31,2010 and October 31,2009 and 2008 was $2,534,500 , $2,195,000 and $1,727,700.
The change in total allowance for the five months ended March 31,2010 and during
the years ended October 31,2009 and 2008 was an increase of $339,500.,an
increase of $467,300 and an increase of $1,719,100 respectively. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets,
management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all
of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of
deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income
during the periods in which the net operating losses and temporary differences
become deductible. Management considered projected future taxable income and tax
planning strategies in making this assessment. At March 31, 2010, the Company
had net operating loss carry forwards for United States Federal and State income
tax purposes of approximately $3,946,670 (the NOL carry forwards-US), which
were available to offset future US taxable income, if any, through 2029. At
March 31, 2010, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards, associated
with its subsidiaries Weinan Milkgoat, Fuping Milkgoat and Shaanxi Milkgoat, for
PRC income tax purposes of approximately $173,040 (the NOL carry forwards
China), which are available to offset future PRC taxable income, if any, until
it is fully offset against future taxable income subject to the approval of the
Chinese tax authority. Based upon the uncertainty of future US taxable income,
the limited operating histories of its subsidiaries, Weinan Milkgoat, Fuping
Milkgoat, and Shaanxi Milkgoat, and these subsidiaries losses incurred to date,
management has fully reserved the deferred tax asset associated with the warrant
expense and NOL carry forwards for US and PRC income tax purposes. The company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48(FIN 48), Accounting for
Uncertainty in Income Taxes, (codified in FASB) Accounting Standards
Codification (ASC) 740), as of January 1, 2007. As a result of the
implementation of FIN 48, the Company made a comprehensive review of its
portfolio of tax positions in accordance with the recognition standards
established by FIN 48. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company
recognized no material adjustments to liabilities or stockholders equity. The
company did not recognize any interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax
benefits in year March 31, 2010 and October 31, 2009. The company had no
uncertain positions that would necessitate recording of tax related liability.
The company is subject to examination by the respective tax authorities. 14. Merger and Offering Series B Warrants On June 6, 2008, in consideration for introducing Ardmore to
Tianjin Yayi, Ardmore issued to Grand Orient Fortune Investment Ltd., a British
Virgin Islands limited liability company and its designees (collectively, Grand
Orient) an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of the Company common stock, valued at
$2,200,000 (based on the stock price on June 6, 2008, the date of issuance) and
Series B Warrants to acquire 2,148,148 shares of Ardmores common stock at an
exercise price of $1.08 per share, valued at $1,144,743, fair value. The Company

value of the warrant with the following assumptions: no dividend yield, expected
volatility of 70.31%, and a risk-free interest rate of 2.73% . In determining
volatility of the Companys warrant, the Company used the average volatility of
the Companys stock. These warrants are considered to be indexed to the
Companys own stock accordance with Emerging Issue Task Force (EITF) No. 01-6.
These warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis and may be exercised through
June 2011. The exercise price of these warrants and the number of shares
issuable upon their exercise is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of
specified events. Grand Orient was granted piggyback registration rights with
respect to these shares and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of
the Series B Warrants. The fair value of the common stock and Series B Warrants
was expensed as merger costs. Cancellation of shares and Issuance of Series C
Warrants F-41 In connection with this merger, on June 6, 2008, Ardmore
entered into an indemnification agreement with Tryant, LLC, pursuant to which
Tryant agreed to the cancellation of 325,198 shares of common stock it owned and
agreed to, among other things, indemnify Ardmore for one year for breaches of
representations and warranties in the merger agreement. In exchange, Ardmore (i)
paid Tryant an aggregate of $200,000 (excluding $50,000 that had been previously
paid by Charleston and expensed in merger costs), (ii) issued Tryant a note in
principal amount of $250,000 (which matured and was paid in August 2008), and
(iii) issued Tryant and its designees, Series C Warrants, exercisable on a
cashless basis to acquire through June 2011, an aggregate of 185,185 shares of
Ardmore common stock at an exercise price of $1.35 per share, valued at $86,367,
fair value. The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise of
these warrants is subject to specified anti-dilution adjustments. Tryant and its
designees were granted piggyback rights with respect to the shares of the
Companys common stock it owned prior to these transactions and the shares
issuable upon exercise of these Series C Warrants. This transaction in the total
amount of $536,367 is reflected as cancellation of common stock. F-42 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 14. Merger and Offering Continued Convertible Promissory Note and Issuance of Series A
Warrants Contemporaneously with, and as a condition to, the completion
of the merger, Ardmore issued 52 units for an aggregate purchase price of
$1,300,000. Each unit consisted of: (i) an 8% convertible promissory note in
principal amount of $25,000 and (ii) Ardmores Series A Warrants. Interest on
these notes is payable at maturity, the notes mature in December 2009, are
unsecured and are convertible, at the holders option, into the Company common
stock at a conversion price of $1.08. The Series A Warrants included in each
unit are exercisable (under specified circumstances, on a cashless basis)
through June 2011 (subject to extension if, under specified circumstances, the
underlying shares are not registered for resale) to acquire 11,575 shares of
Ardmores common stock at an exercise price equal to the lesser of $1.35 and the
Next Round Value. The term Next Round Value means the per share dollar value
of the securities issued by Ardmore in the first private placement that is
effected after the merger, such dollar value to be equal to a fraction, the
numerator of which is the aggregate purchase price of the securities sold in
such private placement and the denominator of which is the number of shares of
common stock (including and after giving effect to the shares of common stock
issuable upon exercise or conversion of the securities issued or issuable in
such private placement, determined as of the date of the first closing of such
private placement), issued in such private placement. The convertible notes and
Series A Warrants provide for anti-dilution adjustments upon the occurrence of
specified events. The Series A Warrants that were issued with the convertible
notes gave the holders the right to purchase an aggregate of 601,900 shares of
Ardmores common stock. These warrants were valued at $280,726, fair value, and
in accordance with EITF No. 00-19, the warrants were classified as equity. The
fair value was based on the Black Scholes. In determining volatility of the
Companys warrant, the Company used the average volatility of the Companys
stock. The value of these warrants was recorded as a discount on the convertible
notes. The conversion option is deemed to be an embedded derivative which is
classified as equity under EITF 00-19. The intrinsic value of this embedded
derivative is $304,800 and is recorded as a discount on the convertible notes.
The original face amount of the convertible notes of $1,300,000 was reduced by
the value of the warrants issued ($280,726) and the intrinsic value of the
embedded derivative ($304,800), resulting in an initial carrying value of
$714,474. The convertible notes are being accreted to their maturity
value of $1,300,000 using the interest method and an effective monthly rate of
5.22% . The discount on the convertible notes was fully accreted on December 6,
2009. On December 6, 2009, $1,250,000 of the convertible notes plus
accrued interest of $150,000 were converted to 1,296,274 shares of common stock.
$50,000 of the convertible notes plus accrued interest of $6,000 were paid off
in cash on maturity date. (Note11) Pursuant to a registration rights agreement with the purchasers
of these units, Ardmore agreed to register the resale of the shares of common
stock underlying the notes and Series A Warrants. Generally, if Ardmore fails,
subject to specified exceptions, to comply with certain of its obligations under
this agreement, Ardmore may be required to pay the investors, as of the date of
such failure and each monthly anniversary of such failure, partial liquidated
damages equal to 1.5% of the purchase price paid by them for any unregistered
securities held by them that are required to be registered; provided, however
, that (i) Ardmore will not be liable for liquidated damages in excess of
1.5% of the aggregate purchase price in any 30 day period and (ii) the maximum
amount payable to each purchaser shall not exceed 20% of their purchase price.
Ardmore did not file a registration statement by July 21, 2008, as required by
the agreement. On November 24, 2009, the Company and Investors entered into a
Settlement Agreement (the "Settlement Agreement") to settle the Companys
obligations under the promissory notes, the Series A Warrants and the
Registration Rights Agreement. As of March 31,2010, cashless exercise of 17,363 of series A
Warrants were converted to 13,022 shares of common stock. F-43 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 14. Merger and Offering Continued Settlement of Registration Rights Agreement On November 24, 2009, the Company and Investors entered into a
Settlement Agreement (the "Settlement Agreement") to settle the Companys
obligations under the aforementioned Registration Rights Agreement for failure
to file a registration statement in accordance with the terms of the
Registration Rights Agreement. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, each
Investor is entitled to convert the entire principal amount of and accrued
interest on all of the Notes it holds into the Companys common stock at a
conversion price of $1.08 per share. In addition, the Company adjusted the
Series A and Series D warrant exercise price to $0.98 per share. In December
2009, the Company paid to the Investors liquidated damages in the aggregate
amount equal to $140,000, which was accrued as of October 31, 2009, through
Wellfleet Partners, Inc., the representative of the Investors for pro rata
distribution to the Investors. The fair value of the reduction in Series A and
Series D warrant exercise price totaled $88,500 was recorded as a penalty for
the five months ended March 31, 2010. Upon making such payment, the Registration Rights Agreement, as
between the Company and each Investor, terminated and all obligations of the
Company thereunder are discharged and all claims against the Company arising
there from are released. Series D Warrants and Placement Agent Fee Ardmore paid the placement agent an aggregate of approximately
$104,000 in commissions and approximately $21,000 for expenses for its services
in the offering. Ardmore also issued the placement agent and its designees
Series D Warrants (which generally have the same terms as the Series A Warrants)
to acquire an aggregate of 144,448 shares of common stock. The Series D Warrants
were valued at $67,368, fair value. Of the total placement agent expense of
$192,368, $150,082 was allocated to debt issuance costs and the remaining
$41,540 of advisory cost was recorded as an expense. The debt issuance costs are
amortized by the interest method over the term of the convertible notes. For the five months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, amortization
of debt issuance costs and accretion of debt discount from the warrants and
embedded derivatives issued in respect of the merger on June 6, 2008 (merger)

debt issuance costs and accretion of debt discount from the warrants and
embedded derivatives issued in respect of the merger on June 6, 2008 (merger)
totaled $487,821 and $157,304, respectively. Each series of warrants issued in respect of the merger were
valued using a Black-Scholes model. The following assumptions were used to
calculate the fair value of Series B,C,E warrants: dividend yield of 0%,
expected volatility of 70.31%, risk-free interest rate of 2.73%, expected life
of 3 years, and stock price of $1.10 per share with exercise price of $1.08
- -$1.35 per share. Assumptions were used to calculate the fair value of Series A
and D warrants: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 100%, risk-free
interest rate of 0.73%, expected life of 1.5 years, and stock price of $1.4 per
share with exercise price of $0.98 per share. The Company modified the Series A and Series D warrant exercise
price to $0.98 per share as a result of the aforementioned settlement of the
registration rights agreement. Additional expenses of $71,400 and $17,100,
respectively, were recorded as a result of the reduction in Series A and Series
D warrant exercise price. As of March 31, 2010, cashless exercise of 110,000 warrants
were converted to 78,432 shares of common stock. F-44 YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 14. Merger and Offering Continued The following table summarizes all of the Companys warrant

weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average
number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common
shares outstanding during the period using the if-converted method for the
convertible notes and the treasury stock method for warrants. The following
table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per share: F-52 Net (loss)
income available for common shareholders - basic Less: write-off of total debt
discount on convertible debt since unamortized debt discount is
written-off upon conversion Less: write-off
of total deferred financing costs on convertible debt since unamortized
financing costs are written-off upon conversion Add: Interest expense on
convertible note Net (loss)
income available for common shareholders - diluted Weighted average outstanding
shares of common stock The Company reported a net loss for the five months ended March
31, 2010, common stock equivalents including convertible preferred stock and
warrants were anti-dilutive; therefore, the amounts reported for basic and
diluted loss per share are the same. For the five months ended March 31, 2009, common stock
equivalents including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes and
warrants were anti-dilutive; therefore the amounts reported for basic and
dilutive earning per share were the same. For the year ended October 31, 2009, common stock equivalents
including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes and warrants were
anti-dilutive; therefore the amounts reported for basic and dilutive earning per

holders of not less than a majority of the then outstanding Series A Redeemable
Convertible Preferred Stock have the right to request the Company to redeem all
of the then outstanding shares of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred
Stock in cash, if the following qualified events has not occurred: (i) the
Companys shares of common stock or American Depository Shares representing
shares of the common stock are listed on the New York Stock Exchange or the
NASDAQ Global Market, and (ii) the closing market price of such listing
securities represents a price of no less than $4.25 per share of common stock,
subject to adjustment, in any consecutive 30-trading-day period. The per share
redemption amount is equal to the sum of (i) the purchase price of $9.8 per
share plus an internal rate of return of 25% for the period from the issuance
date of the Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock to the redemption
date, and (ii) an amount equal to all declared but unpaid dividends for each
outstanding share of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. As of
March 31, 2010, the aggregate redemption amount is $17,938,353 (1,530,612 shares
x $9.8 x (1+25% / 365 days x 286 days)). The Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock is not
redeemable currently and it is not probable that it will become redeemable;
therefore subsequent adjustment to the Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred
Stocks redemption amount is not necessary until it is probable that the Series
A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock will become redeemable. Based on
managements future projection of earnings per share and considering P/E ratio
of similar companies in the dairy industry, management believes it is probable
that the Company will be able to maintain a closing market price of no less than
$4.25 per share of common stock for 30 consecutive trading days. In addition,
the Company is currently working on complying with the NASDAQ listing
requirements. The Company believes it is probable that the qualified events, as
defined above, will occur. As such, it is not probable that the Series A
Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock will become redeemable and hence no
accretion to redemption value was made. In accordance with FASBs accounting standard, the Series A
Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock is classified outside of permanent equity
because the occurrence of the qualified events are not solely within the control
of the Company. In accordance with FASBs accounting standard, the issuance
costs of $735,129 are netted against the Private Placement of the Series A
Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock. 20. Dividend Payable On June 12, 2009, the former natural shareholders of Tianjin
Yayi before Charleston acquired their interests on January 15, 2008 (natural

Yayi. The entire amount of dividend has been paid and lent to Tianjin
Yayi by the natural shareholders. The amount owing to the natural shareholders
