BMP SUNSTONE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation:
     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2008 and for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 of BMP Sunstone Corporation (formerly Beijing Med-Pharm Corporation) and subsidiaries (collectively, “the Company” “we” or “our” ) include the accounts of BMP Sunstone Corporation (the “Parent”) and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, Beijing Medpharm Co. Ltd. (“BMP China”), Beijing Wanwei Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (“Wanwei”) and Sunstone China Limited (formerly named Hong Kong Fly International Health Care Limited) (“Sunstone China”), the 100% owner of Sunstone (Tangshan) Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd (“Sunstone”) should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes of the Company as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and for each of the three years for the period ended December 31, 2007, included in the Company’s Annual Report on form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 17, 2008. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments, consisting principally of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s interim results. Certain information and footnote disclosures required for complete financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to applicable rules and regulations. The operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
     Earnings Per Share: The Company calculates basic earnings per share based on the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares. The Company calculates diluted earnings per share based on the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares plus the effect of dilutive stock options and warrants. Common stock equivalents have been excluded from the diluted per share calculations as of June 30, 2008 and 2007, as the Company has incurred a net loss during the three and six month periods then ended, and their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
     Notes Receivable: The Company receives notes receivable for the settlement of trade receivables balances. Notes receivables are guaranteed by established banks in the PRC and have maturities of six months or less.
     Reclassification: Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year balances in order to conform to the current presentation.
     Recent Accounting Pronouncements: On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” (“SFAS 157”) as it relates to financial assets and financial liabilities. In February 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. FAS 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157,”(“FSP FAS 157-2”) which delayed the effective date of SFAS 157 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on at least an annual basis, until January 1, 2009 for calendar year-end entities. SFAS 157 and FSP FAS 157-2 are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.
     SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of this standard apply to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and are to be applied prospectively with limited exceptions. The adoption of SFAS 157, as it relates to financial assets and financial liabilities, had no significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. As permitted, management has deferred the adoption of SFAS 157, as it relates to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities and is currently evaluating the impact of deferral on the Company’s financial statements.
     SFAS 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This standard is now the single source in GAAP for the definition of fair value, except for the fair value of leased property as defined in SFAS 13 “Acconting for Leases”. SFAS 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under SFAS 157 are described below:

7


Table of Contents

    Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
 
    Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
 
    Level 3—Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
The fair value of cash equivalents was $4.7 million and $22.8 million at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. These financial instruments are classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of notes receivable was $26.8 million as of June 30, 2008. These financial instruments are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
     On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other assets and liabilities at fair value on an instrument-by-instrument basis (the fair value option) with changes in fair value reported in earnings. The adoption of SFAS 159 had no impact on the Company’s financial statements as management did not elect the fair value option for (1) any financial instruments other than cash or (2) any other assets and liabilities.
     In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007) “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) retains the fundamental requirements of the original pronouncement requiring that the purchase method be used for all business combinations. SFAS 141(R) defines the acquirer as the entity that obtains control of one or more businesses in the business combination, establishes the acquisition date as the date that the acquirer achieves control and requires the acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest at their fair values as of the acquisition date. SFAS 141(R) also requires that acquisition-related costs be recognized separately from the acquisition. SFAS 141(R) is effective for us for fiscal year 2009. We are currently assessing the impact of SFAS 141(R) on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.
     In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”) which requires all entities to report noncontrolling interests (previously referred to as minority interests) in subsidiaries as a separate component of equity in the consolidated financial statements. Moreover, SFAS 160 eliminates the diversity that currently exists in accounting for transactions between an entity and noncontrolling interests by requiring they be treated as equity transactions. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Management is evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
     In June 2008, the FASB issued FSP EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities.” This FSP addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions may be participating securities prior to vesting and, therefore, need to be included in the earnings allocation in computing basic earnings per share (“EPS”) pursuant to the two-class method described in paragraphs 60 and 61 of FASB Statement No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” A share-based payment award that contains a non-forfeitable right to receive cash when dividends are paid to common shareholders irrespective of whether that award ultimately vests or remains unvested shall be considered a participating security as these rights to dividends provide a non-contingent transfer of value to the holder of the share-based payment award. Accordingly, these awards should be included in the computation of basic EPS pursuant to the two-class method. The guidance in this FSP is effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2009 and all interim periods within 2009. All prior period EPS data presented will have to be adjusted retrospectively to conform to the provisions of the FSP. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance.
     In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP APB 14-1, “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)”, which clarifies that convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement) are not addressed by paragraph 12 of APB Opinion No. 14, “Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants.” Additionally, this FSP specifies that issuers of such instruments should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. This FSP will be effective for the Company as of January 1, 2009 and will have to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company will evaluate the impact of the adoption in the event any instruments that would be subject to this guidance are being considered in the future, however, it is not expected to have any impact

on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations upon adoption as the Company does not have any instruments issued and outstanding that will be subject to this guidance.
2. Acquisitions:
Acquisition of Guangzhou Pharmaceuticals Corporation
     On January 28, 2008, Alliance BMP Limited, an investment vehicle based in the United Kingdom that is 80 percent-owned by Alliance Boots Ltd. and 20 percent-owned by us, completed its acquisition of a 50 percent stake in Guangzhou Pharmaceuticals Corporation. Guangzhou Pharmaceuticals Corporation had revenues of RMB 8.5 billion for the year ended December 31, 2007 and is the fourth largest pharmaceutical distributor in China. The investment in Alliance BMP Limited was accounted for under the cost method of accounting in accordance with APB 18. Our total investment in Alliance BMP Limited as an investment at cost was $15.1 million. The remaining 50 percent ownership of Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Company Limited is retained by a Hong Kong and Shanghai Exchange-listed company.
Acquisition of Sunstone
     On October 31, 2007, the Company acquired 49% of the issued share capital of Sunstone China, which holds 100% of the equity interests of Sunstone, for cash consideration of $32 million, plus direct acquisition costs of $1.1 million. Sunstone is a manufacturer of primarily branded over-the-counter (OTC) medicines, with operations in Tangshan, Hebei Province, People’s Republic of China. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.
     On February 18, 2008, the Company acquired the remaining 51% of Sunstone for eight million shares of BMP’s common stock, valued at approximately $94.7 million (based upon the average quoted prices of our stock for two days prior to the agreement, the day of the agreement and two days subsequent to the agreement).
     In connection with our acquisition of Sunstone, 1.6 million of the issued shares represent consideration that is contingent upon certain events. Under the agreement, 800,000 shares are contingent upon certain conditions precedent relating to the veracity and propriety of the facts and circumstances surrounding the acquisition for a three year period from the date of the completion of the agreement for the 51% ownership in Sunstone China. The remaining 800,000 shares, including any declared dividends and bonuses, are contingent upon Sunstone China’s achievement of certain performance targets, and are issuable in 400,000 share increments during a two year measurement period. Such performance targets are predicated upon net profit from Sunstone China in the amount of not less than $11.5 million in 2007 and $13.5 million in 2008. For the year ended December 31, 2007, the performance target has been met.
     The acquisition of Sunstone has been accounted for as a step acquisition business combination, in accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141”). We have allocated our investment basis to our pro rata share of Sunstone’s assets and liabilities at each significant acquisition date based on the estimated fair values of such assets and liabilities on such dates, and the excess of our investment basis over the adjusted estimated fair values of such identifiable net assets has been allocated to goodwill. For financial reporting purposes, we have accounted for Sunstone using the equity method through February 17, 2008, and as a consolidated subsidiary thereafter.
     The following table summarizes the allocation of the February 18, 2008 acquisition of the 51% purchase price for the proportionate share of Sunstone China’s net assets acquired at fair value at the date of acquisition:

Equity Method Investment Income:
     For our 49% investment in Sunstone China acquired on October 31, 2007 that was not fully consolidated, but instead is included in our financial statements under the equity method of accounting for the period January 1, 2008 through February 17, 2008, the difference between our cost of our investment and our proportionate share of the equity in the underlying net assets is accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting we allocate the purchase price to the net assets acquired in the transaction at their respective estimated fair market values. The premium we paid, representing the excess cost over the underlying fair value of our proportionate share of the net assets acquired, is referred to as equity method goodwill. The excess cost over book value of net assets acquired not representing trademarks and goodwill is amortized over the estimated useful life of acquired assets (with definitive useful lives) against our share of investee earnings.
     The following table provides a reconciliation of our equity method investment loss. Prior to purchase accounting adjustments Sunstone China generated net income of $2,746,000 or $1,345,000 for our 49% equity ownership. The total amortization for the period was $349,000 which resulted in an equity method investment income of $996,000.

6. Stock-Based Compensation:
     The Company’s 2007 Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) which merged with the Company’s 2004 Plan as of April 26, 2007 provides for grants of stock options (incentive stock options and nonqualified stock options), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards, other stock grants and other stock-based awards to all employees (including employees who are directors and officers), non-employee directors, consultants and independent contractors of the Company and its affiliates. The Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to adjustment, and provides that no more than 400,000 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment, may be awarded to any one individual in any calendar year if the value of the award is based solely on an increase in the value of shares of the Company’s common stock after the date of grant of the award. The Plan also provides that no more than 100,000 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment, may be awarded to any one individual in any calendar year if the value of the award is not based solely on an increase in the value of shares of the Company’s common stock after the date of grant of the award. Options are granted for a term of ten years and vest over a four year period. Options granted under the Plan from 2005 through June 30, 2008 vest 25% after the first year of the date of grant and ratably each month over the remaining 36 month period. Options granted in 2004 under the Plan vest 50% after the first two years of the date of hire and ratably each month over the remaining 24 month period. The Plan is administered by

Table of Contents

the Company’s Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee has the authority to determine the individuals who will receive grants, the type of grant, the number of shares subject to the grant, the terms of the grant, the time the grants will be made and the duration of any exercise or restriction period, and has the authority to deal with any other matters arising under the Plan. Options granted under the Plan may be “incentive stock options,” which are intended to qualify with the requirements of section 422 of the Code, and “nonqualified stock options,” which are not intended to so qualify. The Company’s board of directors may amend or terminate the Plan at any time if required under the Plan, subject to stockholder approval. Unless terminated earlier by the board of directors or extended by the board of directors, with the approval of the Company’s stockholders, no awards may be granted under the Plan after April 25, 2012.
     The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
                                 
    Three months ended June 30,   Six months ended June 30,
    2008   2007   2008   2007
Expected life (years)
    5.0       5.0       5.0       5.0  
Risk-free interest rate
    3.14-3.22 %     5.23 %     2.36-3.22 %     5.15%-5.23 %
Expected Volatility
    55 %     80 %     55 %     78.8%-80 %
Expected Dividend yield
    0.00 %     0.00 %     0.00 %     0.00 %
     The expected volatility in our stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 has decreased from the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 as the Company is estimating future volatility will be more in line with the historic volatility over the past year which has decreased considerably compared to the years prior to 2007. The weighted average estimated fair value of the options granted for each of the three and six months ending June 30, 2008 and 2007 was $3.70 and $6.23.
     The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock volatility. Because the Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options. Compensation cost which is based on the fair value of options granted is recognized on a straight line basis over the service period.
     A summary of the options issued by the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2008 is as follows:

Overview  
     BMP Sunstone Corporation (formerly known as Beijing Med-Pharm Corporation), a Delaware corporation, is a fully integrated specialty pharmaceutical company focused on the commercialization of branded prescription and over-the-counter, or OTC, products in China. Through our subsidiary, Sunstone (Tangshan) Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., or Sunstone, we manufacture, market and distribute OTC products in China. Through Beijing Medpharm Co. Ltd., or BMP China, and Beijing Wanwei Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., or Wanwei, we market, promote and distribute prescription products exclusively licensed from foreign pharmaceutical companies. In addition, Wanwei offers domestic pharmaceutical manufacturers in China distribution services and BMP China offers foreign pharmaceutical manufacturers ready to enter the China markets a package of market entry services. Our services include:
    pre-market entry analysis;
 
    clinical trial management;
 
    product registration;
 
    market research;
 
    pharmaceutical marketing to physicians, hospitals and other healthcare providers;
 
    OTC marketing to retail pharmacies; and
 
    pharmaceutical distribution.
     We were incorporated in the State of Delaware in November 2003 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Just Great Coffee, Inc., a New Jersey corporation. In January 2004, Just Great Coffee, Inc. merged with and into us and we were the surviving corporation. BMP China was incorporated in China in May 1994. In December 2001, Abacus acquired a 100% equity interest in BMP China. In February 2004, we acquired all of the equity interests of BMP China from Abacus in exchange for our issuance to Abacus of 7,807,509 shares of our common stock, which represented approximately 90% of our common stock at the time of the exchange. As a result of this exchange, BMP China became our wholly-owned subsidiary. In December 2005, we completed our acquisition of Wanwei. On October 31, 2007, we completed the acquisition of 49% of the issued share capital of Sunstone China Limited, or

Sunstone China, which holds a 100% equity interest in Sunstone. On January 28, 2008, Alliance BMP Limited, an investment vehicle based in the United Kingdom that is 80 percent-owned by Alliance Boots Ltd. and 20 percent-owned by us, completed its acquisition of a 50 percent stake in Guangzhou Pharmaceuticals Corporation. On February 18, 2008, we completed the acquisition of the remaining 51% interest in Sunstone China that we had not already acquired in exchange for up to 8 million shares of our common stock which was valued at approximately $94.7 million based on our quarterly average market price two days before and after the date of the Sales and Purchase Agreement of September 28, 2007.
Financial Overview
     The majority of our revenues have been derived from two sources: branded OTC revenues from Sunstone products and revenue from the distribution of pharmaceutical products, including our licensed products, in China through our wholly-owned subsidiary Wanwei. Each revenue source accounts for 60.9% and 39.1% of total revenue, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Revenues for Sunstone are for the period February 18, through June 30, 2008.
     Our future success will depend on expanding sales of our current products, obtaining additional promotional and market research agreements and licensing rights for China, expanding our OTC sales through Sunstone as well as acquiring additional distribution companies currently operating in China. During 2008 and 2007, we have pursued a strategy of broadening our range of promoted products and we are currently actively reviewing for license various branded pharmaceutical and OTC products and products in development from western pharmaceutical companies for marketing and distribution in China.
Acquisitions
Acquisition of Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Corporation
     On January 28, 2008, Alliance BMP Limited, an investment vehicle based in the United Kingdom that is 80 percent-owned by Alliance Boots Ltd. and 20 percent-owned by the Company, completed its acquisition of a 50% stake in Guangzhou Pharmaceuticals Corporation. The investment in Alliance BMP Limited was accounted for as an investment at cost. Our total investment in Alliance BMP Limited was $15.1 million. The remaining 50 percent ownership of Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Company Limited is retained by a Hong Kong and Shanghai Exchange-listed company, subject to semi-annual reporting requirements.
Acquisition of Sunstone
     On October 31, 2007, the Company acquired 49% of the issued share capital of Sunstone China, which holds 100% of the equity interests of Sunstone, for cash consideration of $32 million, plus direct acquisition costs of $1.1 million. Sunstone is a manufacturer of primarily OTC medicines, with operations in Tangshan, Hebei Province, People’s Republic of China. The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting.
 
     On February 17, 2008, the Company acquired the remaining 51% of Sunstone for eight million shares of BMP’s common stock, valued at approximately $94.7 million (based upon the average quoted prices of our stock for two days prior to the agreement, the day of the agreement and two days subsequent to the agreement).
     In connection with our acquisition of Sunstone, 1.6 million of the issued shares represent consideration that is contingent upon certain events. Under the agreement, 800,000 shares are contingent upon certain conditions precedent relating to the veracity and propriety of the facts and circumstances surrounding the acquisition for a three year period from the date of the completion of the agreement for the 51% ownership in Sunstone China. The remaining 800,000 shares, including any declared dividends and bonuses, are contingent upon Sunstone China’s achievement of certain performance targets, and are issuable in 400,000 share increments during a two year measurement period. Such performance targets are predicated upon net profit from Sunstone China in the amount of not less than $11.5 million in 2007 and $13.5 million in 2008. For the year ended December 31, 2007, the performance target has been met.
     The acquisition of Sunstone has been accounted for as a business combination, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141, “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141”). We have allocated our investment basis to our pro rata share of Sunstone’s assets and liabilities at each significant acquisition date based on the estimated fair values of such assets and liabilities on such dates, and the excess of our investment basis over the adjusted estimated fair values of such identifiable net assets has been allocated to goodwill. For financial reporting purposes, we have accounted for Sunstone using the equity method through February 17, 2008, and as a consolidated subsidiary thereafter.

Acquisition of Rongheng
     On July 4, 2008, the Company completed its acquisition of 63.3% of Shanghai Rongheng Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (“Rongheng”). Rongheng is a pharmaceutical distribution company which distributes over 400 pharmaceutical products to more than 140 top-tier hospitals and 1,000 retail pharmacies in Shanghai. Rongheng was founded in 1999 by CAS Shanghai Shenglongda Biotech Group, a high-tech biomedical group focused on research and development, marketing and sales of new biotechnology and pharmaceuticals in China, and Orient International (Holding) Co., one of the largest foreign trade enterprises in China. Shanghai Rongheng International Trade Co., Ltd. of Orient International (Holding) Co., CAS Shanghai Shenglongda Biotech Group and one other individual own the remaining 36.7% of Rongheng.
Liquidity and Capital Resources  
 Cash
     As of June 30, 2008, we had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of approximately $4.7 million which represented 2% of our total assets. Our cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase and are primarily invested in short-term money market instruments. However, we do not anticipate any losses with respect to such cash balances because the balances are invested in highly-rated securities.
Notes Receivable
     As of June 30, 2008, we had notes receivable of approximately $17.5 million which represented 8% of our total assets. Notes receivable are notes received from customers for the settlement of trade receivable balances. As of June 30, 2008, all notes receivable were guaranteed by established banks in the PRC and have maturities of six months or less. The fair value of the notes receivable approximated their carrying value.
Cash Flow
     We anticipate that our June 30, 2008 balance of approximately $4.7 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and $17.5 million in notes receivable will be sufficient to fund our current level of operations for at least the next 12 months. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including those factors described in Part II, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Our Business” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 as well as our ability to maintain our existing cost structure and return on sales, fund obligations for additional capital that will occur on additional product licenses and acquisitions and execution of our business and strategic plans as currently conceived.
     On November 1, 2007, the Company issued an aggregate of $23,000,000 principal amount of 10% Senior Secured Debt due May 1, 2009. The Senior Secured Debt bears interest of 10% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1, 2008, November 1, 2008 and May 1, 2009. Although our June 30, 2008 balance of approximately $4.7 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and $17.5 million in notes receivable is sufficient to fund our current level of operations for the next 12 months, we anticipate that a sufficient amount of notes receivable will not be able to be converted into cash and transferred to a U.S. bank account in order to pay the outstanding principal and interest that will be due on May 1, 2009. We are reviewing alternative financing arrangements for the repayment of the $23,000,000 principal amount which may include entering into an amendment with respect to our Senior Secured Debt, securing new debt, entering into a new debt arrangement or issue additional equity securities to pay off our Senior Secured Debt prior to May 1, 2009.
     Net cash used in operating activities was $6,282,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. This amount reflected our loss of $3,745,000, offset by $4,676,000 in net non-cash charges including amortization of intangible assets and inventory marked to fair value incurred as a result of the Hong Kong Health Care acquisition of $2,095,000, amortization of debt discount and debt issuance costs of $1,954,000, stock based compensation expense of $1,180,000, depreciation and amortization of equipment and leasehold improvements of $809,000 and equity method investment income of $996,000. In addition, we generated $6,572,000 of operating cash as result in changes in certain of our operating liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2008. The changes were the increases in accounts payable of $5,258,000 and accrued other expenses of $1,314,000. Offsetting these changes were increases in inventory of $4,033,000, other receivables of $2,677,000, accounts receivable of $2,188,000, prepaid and other assets of $1,671,000 value added tax receivable of $554,000 and due from related parties of $346,000 and a decrease in deferred revenue of $1,363,000 and a decrease in due to related parties of $953,000.

In addition, we generated $541,000 of operating cash as a result of changes in certain of our operating assets and liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2007. The most significant changes were the decrease in value added tax receivable of $240,000, other receivables of $63,000 and

Critical Accounting Policies
     Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets or liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements as well as the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other factors and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results might differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
     Our critical accounting policies are described in MD&A included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. There have been no changes in these accounting policies.
     Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to our 2007 consolidated financial statements contained in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007. Information concerning our implementation and the impact of recent accounting standards issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board is included in the notes to our 2007 consolidated financial statements and also in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. In addition, we believe the following new accounting estimates reflect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our financial statements:

months ended June 30, 2007, of which $167,000 was the result of the Sunstone acquisition. Board of Directors fees and related meeting expenses were $165,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $42,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007 due to additional Directors and related compensation and the timing of meetings. Insurance expense increased $101,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to the three months ended June, 2007 of which $67,000 was the result of Sunstone.
Interest Income:  
     Our interest income primarily consists of income earned on our cash and cash equivalents. We received interest income on our balances of cash and cash equivalents of $14,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2008 and $119,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007.
Interest Expense:  
     Our interest expense primarily consists of incurred interest and debt discount amortization from our November 2007 long term debt financing that had net proceeds of $21,870,000. We had interest expense of $1,611,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2008 and $24,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. As a part of the issuance of the debt, the Company issued common stock purchase warrants to the purchasers of the debt giving them the right to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,037,580 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $12.43 per share. Class A warrants will expire on May 1, 2009 and Class B warrants will expire on November 1, 2012, unless sooner exercised. In accordance with APB 14, “Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants” (“APB 14”) the relative fair value of these warrants on their date of grant, which was determined to be approximately $4,601,000, was recorded as a discount to the underlying debt and as an addition to additional paid-in capital. The discount is being amortized over the term of the underlying debt on a straight line basis, which approximates the effective interest method. As of June 30, 2008, the unamortized debt discount amounted to approximately $2,556,000. Total amortization of the debt discount was $767,000 for three months ended June 30, 2008. Interest expense of 10% for the November 2007 long term debt financing was $575,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008. Outstanding debt of Sunstone resulted in an additional $219,000 of interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2008.
Debt Issuance Cost Amortization:
     Our issuance cost amortization is the result of our long term debt financing costs we incurred in November 2007. The Company defers debt issuance costs and amortizes the amount over the life of debt on a straight-line basis which approximates the effective interest method. The unamortized debt issuance cost was $700,000 as of June 30, 2008 and $210,000 of debt issuance costs had been amortized for the three months ended June 30, 2008.

Sales and Marketing Expenses:
     Sales and marketing expenses were $17,099,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared with $1,347,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The acquisition of Sunstone on February 17, 2008 resulted in $15,159,000 of the $15,752,000 increase in sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to June 30, 2007. Marketing, advertising, salaries and related benefits, office expenses, travel and entertainment and amortization of intangibles account for $14,958,000 or 89% of sales and marketing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The most significant sales and marketing expense increases for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007 are as follows: advertising $3,167,000; marketing $2,981,000; salaries and related benefits of $1,630,000; Sales office selling expenses $2,529,000, travel and entertainment of $2,689,000 and amortization of intangibles of $1,267,000 which resulted from the acquisition of Sunstone.
General and Administrative Expenses:
     General and administrative expenses were approximately $6,975,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $3,755,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. As a percentage of net revenues general and administrative expenses decreased to 14.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to 29.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2007. Sunstone’s general and administrative expenses for the period February 18 through June 30, 2008 accounted for $1,539,000 of the $3,221,000 increase for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007. Salaries and related benefits increased $1,005,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007. This increase is the result of Sunstone acquisition for $557,000, the increase in additional senior management in China in 2007, salary increases and expansion of our administrative and corporate staff in China. Stock-based compensation increased $507,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007. Professional fees increased $249,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007 which resulted from our initial Sarbanes Oxley audit for the year ended December 31, 2007, a separate shareholders meeting to approve the 51% acquisition of Sunstone and an overall increase in fees due to

the growth in our operations. Business taxes increased $219,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007 of which $186,000 was the result of the Sunstone’s operations. Office rent and supply expenses increased $320,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to six months ended June 30, 2007 as a result of both BMP China and Wanwei moving administrative offices during the quarter and the acquisition of Sunstone. Depreciation expenses increased $242,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2007 of which $179,000 was the result of the Sunstone acquisition.
Interest Income:
     Our interest income primarily consists of income earned on our cash and cash equivalents. We received interest income on our balances of cash and cash equivalents of $62,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2008 and $270,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007.
Interest Expense:
     Our interest expense primarily consists of incurred interest and debt discount amortization from our November 2007 long term debt financing that had net proceeds of $21,870,000. We had interest expense of $3,180,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2008 and $44,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. As a part of the issuance of the debt, the Company issued common stock purchase warrants to the purchasers of the debt giving them the right to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,037,580 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $12.43 per share. Class A warrants will expire on May 1, 2009 and Class B warrants will expire on November 1, 2012, unless sooner exercised. In accordance with APB 14, the relative fair value of these warrants on their date of grant, which was determined to be approximately $4,601,000, was recorded as a discount to the underlying debt and as an addition to additional paid-in capital. The discount is being amortized over the term of the underlying debt on a straight line basis, which approximates the effective interest method. As of June 30, 2008, the unamortized debt discount amounted to approximately $2,556,000. Total amortization of the debt discount was $1,534,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Interest expense of 10% for the November 2007 long term debt financing was $1,150,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008. Outstanding debt of Sunstone acquired resulted in an additional $444,000 of interest expense for the period February 17, 2008 through June 30, 2008.
Debt Issuance Cost Amortization:
     Our issuance cost amortization is the result of our long term debt financing costs we incurred in November 2007. The Company defers debt issuance costs and amortizes the amount over the life of debt on a straight-line basis which approximates the effective interest method. The unamortized debt issuance cost was $700,000 as of June 30, 2008 and $420,000 of debt issuance costs had been amortized for the six months ended June 30, 2008.
Equity Method Investment Income:
     For our 49% investment in Hong Kong Health Care that was not fully consolidated but instead was included in our financial statements under the equity method of accounting for the period January 1, 2008 through February 17, 2008, the difference between our cost of our investment and our proportionate share of the equity in the underlying net assets is accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting we allocated the purchase price to the net assets acquired in the transaction at their respective estimated fair market values. The premium we paid, representing the excess cost over the underlying fair value of our proportionate share of the net assets acquired, is referred to as equity method goodwill. The excess cost over book value of net assets acquired not representing trademarks and goodwill is amortized over the estimated useful life of acquired assets (with definitive useful lives) against our share of investee earnings.
     The following table provides a reconciliation of our equity method investment loss. Prior to purchase accounting adjustments Sunstone China generated net income of $2,746,000 or $1,345,000 for our 49% equity ownership. The total amortization for the period was $349,000 which resulted in an equity method investment income of $996,000.

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Foreign Exchange Rate Sensitivity
     We are exposed to cash flow and earnings fluctuations resulting from foreign exchange rate variation because our operations are in China. This exposure arises from the translation of financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries BMP China, Sunstone and Wanwei, from RMB, the functional currency of China, into United States dollars, our functional currency. For additional information on the risks associated with the RMB, see Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Doing Business in China — Fluctuations in the Chinese Renminbi could adversely affect our results of operations”.
     We do not, as a routine matter, use hedging vehicles to manage foreign exchange exposures. As of June 30, 2008, a 10% unfavorable change in the foreign exchange rates affecting balance sheet transactional exposures would have resulted in a reduction in pre-tax loss of approximately $0.2 million. This hypothetical reduction on transactional exposure is based on the difference between June 30, 2008 actual foreign exchange rates and hypothetical rates assuming a 10% unfavorable change in foreign exchange rates on that date.
     The translation of the balance sheets of our Chinese operations from RMB into U.S. dollars is sensitive to changes in foreign exchange rates. These translation gains or losses are recorded as translation adjustments within shareholders’ equity on our balance sheet. Using the example above, the hypothetical change in translation adjustments would be calculated by multiplying the net assets of our Chinese operations by a 10% unfavorable change in the applicable foreign exchange rates. As of June 30, 2008, our analysis indicated that these hypothetical changes would reduce shareholders’ equity by approximately $14.4 million or 10% of our June 30, 2008 shareholder equity of $141.6 million.
Interest Rate Sensitivity
     We invest in high-quality financial instruments, primarily money market funds, federal agency notes, corporate debt securities, bank certificates of deposit, commercial paper and United States treasury notes, which we believe are subject to limited credit risk. We currently do not hedge interest rate exposure. Due to the short-term nature of our investments, we do not believe that we have any material exposure to interest rate risk arising from our investments.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
     Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. In addition, since we acquired Hong Kong Health Care on February 18, 2008, our ability to effectively apply our disclosure controls and procedures to that acquired business is inherently limited by the short period of time that we have had to evaluate its operations.
     In connection with their audit of the financial statements of Sunstone China as of December 31, 2006 and September 30, 2007 and for the year ended December 31, 2006 and the nine-month period ended September 30, 2007, the independent auditors of Sunstone China issued a report to the Chairman of the Board of Sunstone China noting that the internal controls of Sunstone China may be insufficient to detect in a timely manner misstatements that could occur in financial statements of Sunstone China in amounts that may be material.
     In connection with their audit of the financial statements of Sunstone China as of December 31, 2007 and for the two-month period ended December 31, 2007, the independent registered public accounting firm of KPMG issued another report to the Chairman of the Board of Sunstone China noting that the internal controls of Sunstone China may be insufficient to detect in a timely manner misstatements that could occur in financial statements of Sunstone China in amounts that may be material.
     Both reports reported one material weakness and a number of significant deficiencies in the internal controls over financial reporting of Sunstone China. The reported material weakness of Sunstone China related generally to the financial reporting process, including accounts closing and financial statement preparation. The auditors noted that Sunstone China had no clear process, schedule, segregation of duties or review with respect to its financial reporting process and had an accounting and financial reporting team without sufficient knowledge of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The reported significant deficiencies of Sunstone China related generally to (i) failure to properly recognize sales and the related accounts receivable, (ii) failure to regularly reconcile delivery of inventories with vendor invoices, (iii) the lack of controls over monitoring and recording of related party transactions, (iv) failure to properly record property, plant and equipment upon receipt, (v) failure to properly recognize research and development expenses and (vi) lack of timely reconciliation of accounting records with the underlying transactions.
     Now that we own all of the issued share capital of Sunstone China, we are in the process of improving the internal controls over financial reporting of Sunstone China. For example, we are incorporating our accounting processes and reporting schedule at Sunstone China, we plan to add accounting and finance personnel to oversee internal controls for financial reporting, we have begun the process of segregating duties of various tasks being performed by the personnel of Sunstone China and we plan on implementing training programs on U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The implementation of this process began during the second quarter of fiscal 2008 and is expected to be completed during 2008. We do not believe that the costs associated with these improvements will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. However, despite these steps, we may experience reportable conditions, material weaknesses and significant deficiencies in the future, which, if not remediated, may render us unable to detect in a timely manner misstatements that could occur in our financial statements in amounts that may be material. We cannot assure you that our auditors will determine that the material weakness and significant deficiencies have been remedied by the end of our fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
     No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our first and second fiscal quarters that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
