Please tell us the nature of the transaction and your accounting for the transaction under U.S. GAAP.

 

Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, on May 31, 2017 a subsidiary of the Company, Fenyang Huaxin Wine Industry Development Co Ltd, acquired an additional 41% interest in its subsidiary Fenyang Jinqiang Wine Co Ltd. As at May 31, 2017, the net asset value of Fenyang Jinqiang Wine Co Ltd was RMB 34,638, 641, 41% of which would be RMB 14,201,843, hence this amount has been shown as the reduction to non-controlling interests in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2017. The cash consideration was RMB 2,050,000; therefore the difference between the 41% net asset value as at May 31, 2017 and the cash consideration, which was RMB 12,151,843, has been presented as addition to acquisition reserve. The above explanation has been added to the financial statements on Page F-23.

Below is the explanation of how each adjustment was determined to comply with Rule 11-02(b)(6) of Regulation S-X.

 

(a)

 

The additional post-offering salaries relate to employees that have been hired by Oranco, Inc in light of the acquisition. These salaries were determined based upon the employment contracts with the individual employees.

 

The additional expenses relate to the fees charged by a public relation consultant who has been engaged in light of the acquisition. The fees were determined based upon the engagement letter with the consultant.

 

The additional legal fees relate to the fees charged by the Company’s lawyer to carry out the acquisition transaction. The fees were determined based upon the engagement letter with the lawyer.

 

(b)

 

These shares were issued to settle the debt owed to a Director, who had paid for legal expenses on behalf of the Company in relation to the acquisition transaction. The number of shares issued and the amount of debt settled were determined based upon the agreement between the Company and the Director and the share registration document.

 

(c)

 

These shares were issued for cash consideration to 3 investors. These 3 investors would not have purchased these shares should there be no acquisition transaction. The number of shares issued and the amount of cash consideration were determined based upon the investment agreement between the Company and these shareholders.

   

(d)

 

These shares were issued in exchange of 100% of share capital of Reliant Galaxy International Limited. These shares have been issued to enable the acquisition transaction.

 

For the reasons above, the Company believes that including these additional costs and the shares issued is an appropriate presentation and provides investors with more meaningful information than excluding these transactions would. The Company submits that it is appropriate to include these adjustments in the pro forma financial information. Additionally, mode detailed disclosure has been added regarding these adjustments.

 

We thank the Staff for its review of the foregoing. If you have further comments, we ask that you forward them by electronic mail to our counsel, Ying Li at yli@htflawyers.com or by telephone at +1 (212) 530-2206.
