JIANGBO PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(FORMERLY KNOWN AS GENESIS PHARMACEUTICALS ENTERPRISES, INC.)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2009
(UNAUDITED)
 Note 1 - Organization and business

Jiangbo Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company” or “Jiangbo”) was originally incorporated in the state of Florida on August 15, 2001, under the name Genesis Technology Group, Inc. with the principal business objective of operating as a business development and marketing firm that specializes in advising and providing a turnkey solution for small and mid-sized Chinese companies entering western markets. On October 12, 2007, after a share exchange transaction, the Company’s corporate name was changed to Genesis Pharmaceuticals Enterprises, Inc. (“Genesis”).

Pursuant to a Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation filed with the State of Florida which took effect as of April 16, 2009, the Company's name was changed from "Genesis Pharmaceuticals Enterprises, Inc." to "Jiangbo Pharmaceuticals, Inc." (the "Corporate Name Change").  The Corporate Name Change was approved and authorized by the Board of Directors of the Company as well as the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s voting stock by written consent.

As a result of the Corporate Name Change, the stock symbol changed to "JGBO" with the opening of trading on May 12, 2009 on the OTCBB.

On October 1, 2007, the Company completed a share exchange transaction by and among the Company, Karmoya International Ltd. (“Karmoya”), a British Virgin Islands company, and Karmoya’s shareholders.

Note 2 - Summary of significant accounting policies

Restatement

The Company previously excluded the dilutive effect of its May 2008 convertible debentures from the diluted earnings per share calculation for the periods ended March 31, 2009 and the dilutive effect of its November 2007 convertible debentures was excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The Company has revised its accounting to include the dilutive effect of the November 2007 and May 2008 convertible debentures in its diluted earnings per share calculation. The interest expense and amortization expenses on the financing costs and note discounts were added back and all the unamortized financing costs and debt discounts at beginning of the periods were subtracted from the March 31, 2009 and 2008 diluted earnings per share calculation.

The restatement had no effect on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statement of cash flow, and consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity as of and for the periods March 31, 2009 and 2008. The Company’s consolidated statement of income and other comprehensive income for the periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 have been restated as follows:

Basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, and related interim consolidated statements of income, and cash flows include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, however, these consolidated financial statements are not indicative of a full year of operations. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the year ended June 30, 2008 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Principles of consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following entities, and all significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation:

Consolidated entity name:
 
Percentage of ownership
 
Karmoya International Ltd.
    100 %
Union Well International Limited
    100 %
Genesis Jiangbo (Laiyang) Biotech Technology Co., Ltd.
    100 %
Laiyang Jiangbo Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd.
 
Variable Interest Entity
 

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation Number (“FIN”) 46 (revised December 2003),  “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No.51”  (“FIN 46R”), addresses whether certain types of entities, referred to as variable interest entities (“VIEs”), should be consolidated in a company’s consolidated financial statements. In accordance with the provisions of FIN 46R, the Company has determined that Laiyang Jiangbo is a VIE, and the Company is the primary beneficiary, and accordingly, the financial statements of Laiyang Jiangbo are consolidated into the financial statements of the Company.

Reverse stock split

In July 2008, the Company approved a 40-to-1 reverse stock split, effective September 4, 2008, and a new trading symbol “GNPH” also became effective on that day. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split. All share representations are on a post-split basis.

Foreign currency translation

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the Company is the local currency, the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 52,  “Foreign Currency Translation,”  results of operations and cash flows are translated at average exchange rates during the period, assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rates as quoted by the People’s Bank of China at the end of the period, and equity is translated at historical exchange rates. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

Asset and liability accounts at March 31, 2009 were translated at 6.83 RMB to $1.00 as compared to 6.85 RMB at June 30, 2008. Equity accounts were stated at their historical rates. The average translation rates applied to statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were 6.83 RMB and 7.18 RMB to $1.00, respectively. The average translation rates applied to statements of income for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 were 6.83 RMB and 7.40 RMB to $1.00.

In accordance with SFAS 95, "Statement of Cash Flows," cash flows from the Company's operations is calculated based upon the local currencies using the average translation rate. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The significant estimates made in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements relate to the assessment of the carrying values of accounts receivable and related allowance for doubtful accounts, allowance for obsolete inventory, sales returns, fair value of warrants and beneficial conversion features related to the convertible notes, and fair value of stock based compensation. Actual results could be materially different from these estimates upon which the carrying values were based.

Revenue recognition

Product sales are generally recognized when title to the product has transferred to customers in accordance with the terms of the sale. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 101, “ Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements,”  as amended by SAB No. 104 (together, “SAB 104”), and SFAS 48  “Revenue Recognition When Right of Return Exists.”  SAB 104 states that revenue should not be recognized until it is realized or realizable and earned. In general, the Company records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

The Company is generally not contractually obligated to accept returns. However, on a case by case negotiated basis, the Company permits customers to return their products. In accordance with SFAS 48, revenue is recorded net of an allowance for estimated returns. Such reserves are based upon management's evaluation of historical experience and estimated costs. The amount of the reserves ultimately required could differ materially in the near term from amounts included in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.

Financial instruments

SFAS 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” defines financial instrument and requires fair value disclosures about those instruments.  SFAS 157,  “Fair Value Measurements,”  adopted July 1, 2008, defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosures requirements for fair value measures .   Investments, receivables, payables, short term loans and convertible debt all qualify as financial instruments.  Management concluded the receivables, payables and short term loans approximate their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and, if applicable, their stated rates of interest are equivalent to rates currently available.

The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

·
Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

·
Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

·
Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under SFAS 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity,”  SFAS 133,  “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,”  and EITF 00-19,  “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock.”   Further, as required by SFAS 157, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Depending on the product and the terms of the transaction, the fair value of notes payable and derivative liabilities were modeled using a series of techniques, including closed-form analytic formula, such as the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which does not entail material subjectivity because the methodology employed does not necessitate significant judgment, and the pricing inputs are observed from actively quoted markets.

The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy the financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis.

SFAS 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115,”  became effective for the Company on July 1, 2008. SFAS 159 provides the Company with the irrevocable option to elect fair value for the initial and subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract basis with the difference between the carrying value before election of the fair value option and the fair value recorded upon election as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings. The Company chose not to elect the fair value option.

Stock-based compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation pursuant to SFAS 123R, "Share Based Payment.” SFAS 123R requires companies to measure compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value at the grant date and recognize the expense over the employee's requisite service period. Under SFAS 123R, the Company’s expected volatility assumption is based on the historical volatility of Company’s stock or the expected volatility of similar entities. The expected life assumption is primarily based on historical exercise patterns and employee post-vesting termination behavior. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

Stock-based compensation expense is recognized based on awards expected to vest, and there were no estimated forfeitures as the Company has a short history of issuing options. SFAS 123R requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised in subsequent periods, if necessary, if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model which was developed for use in estimating the fair value of options. Option-pricing models require the input of highly complex and subjective variables including the expected life of options granted and the Company’s expected stock price volatility over a period equal to or greater than the expected life of the options. Because changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the estimated value of the Company’s employee stock options, it is management’s opinion that the Black-Scholes option-pricing model may not provide an accurate measure of the fair value of the Company’s employee stock options. Although the fair value of employee stock options is determined in accordance with SFAS 123R using an option-pricing model, that value may not be indicative of the fair value observed in a willing buyer/willing seller market transaction.

Comprehensive income

SFAS 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in financial statements. It requires that all items that are required to be recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in financial statements that are displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the provisions of SFAS 130.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and demand deposits in accounts maintained with state-owned banks within the PRC. The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less, and money market accounts to be cash and cash equivalents.

The Company maintains cash deposits in financial institutions that exceed the amounts insured by the U.S. government. Balances at financial institutions or state-owned banks within the PRC are not covered by insurance. Non-performance by these institutions could expose the Company to losses for amounts in excess of insured balances. As of March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2008, the Company’s bank balances, including restricted cash balances, exceeded government-insured limits by approximately $85,990,000 and $55,576,000, respectively.

 
11

 

Restricted cash

Restricted cash represent amounts set aside by the Company in accordance with the Company’s debt agreements with certain financial institutions. These cash amounts are designated for the purpose of paying down the principal amounts owed to the financial institutions, and these amounts are held at the same financial institutions with which the Company has debt agreements. Due to the short-term nature of the Company’s debt obligations to these banks, the corresponding restricted cash balances have been classified as current in the consolidated balance sheets.

As of March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2008, the Company had restricted cash of approximately $3,714,000 and $7,840,000, respectively, of which approximately $3,714,000 and $5,843,000, respectively, were maintained as security deposits for bank acceptance related to the Company’s notes payable.

Investments and restricted investments

Investments are comprised of marketable equity securities of publicly traded companies and are stated at fair value based on the quoted price of these securities. These investments are classified as trading securities based on the Company’s intent to sell them within the year. Restricted investments are marketable equity securities of publicly traded companies that were acquired through the reverse merger and contained certain SEC Rule 144 restrictions on the securities. These securities are classified as available-for-sale and are reflected as restricted and noncurrent investments as the Company intends to hold them beyond one year. Restricted investments are carried at fair value based on the trade price of these securities.

The following is a summary of the components of the gain/loss on investments and restricted investments for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008:

All unrealized gains and losses related to available-for-sale securities have been properly reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income.

Accounts receivable

In the normal course of business, the Company extends credit to its customers without requiring collateral or other security interests. Management reviews its accounts receivables at each reporting period to provide for an allowance against accounts receivable for an amount that could become uncollectible. This review process may involve the identification of payment problems with specific customers. The Company estimates this allowance based on the aging of the accounts receivable, historical collection experience, and other relevant factors, such as changes in the economy and the imposition of regulatory requirements that can have an impact on the industry. These factors continuously change, and can have a material impact on collections and the Company’s estimation process. Certain accounts receivable amounts are charged off against allowances after unsuccessful collection efforts. Subsequent cash recoveries are recognized as income in the period when they occur.

 
12

 

Inventories

Inventories, consisting of raw materials and finished goods related to the Company’s products, are stated at the lower of cost or market utilizing the weighted average method. The Company reviews its inventory periodically for possible obsolete goods or to determine if any reserves are necessary. As of March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2008, the Company has determined that no reserves were necessary.

Advances to suppliers

Advances to suppliers represent partial payments or deposits for future inventory and equipment purchases. These advances to suppliers are non-interest bearing and unsecured. From time to time, vendors require a certain amount of monies to be deposited with them as a guarantee that the Company will receive their purchases on a timely basis. As of March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2008, advances to suppliers amounted to approximately $130,000 and $1,719,000, respectively.

Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.  Major renewals are charged directly to the plant and equipment accounts, while replacements, maintenance, and repairs which do not improve or extend the respective lives of the assets are expensed currently. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in the results of operations in the period of disposition. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:
 
 
Useful Life
Building and building improvements
5 – 40 Years
Manufacturing equipment
5 – 20 Years
Office equipment and furniture
5 – 10 Years
Vehicles
5 Years

Intangible assets

All land in the PRC is owned by the PRC government and cannot be sold to any individual or company. The Company has recorded the amounts paid to the PRC government to acquire long-term interests to utilize land underlying the Company’s facilities as land use rights. This type of arrangement is common for the use of land in the PRC. Land use rights are amortized on the straight-line method over the terms of the land use rights, which range from 20 to 50 years. The Company acquired land use rights in August 2004 and October 2007 in the amounts of approximately $879,000 and $8,871,000, respectively, which are included in intangible assets.

Patents and licenses include purchased technological know-how, secret formulas, manufacturing processes, technical and procedural manuals, and the certificate of drugs production, and is amortized using the straight-line method over the expected useful economic life of five years, which reflects the period over which those formulas, manufacturing processes, technical and procedural manuals are kept secret to the Company as agreed between the Company and the selling parties.

The estimated useful lives of intangible assets are as follows:
 
 
Useful Life
Land use rights
50 Years
Patents
5 Years
Licenses
5 Years
Customer list and customer relationships
3 Years
Trade secrets - formulas and know how technology
5 Years

Impairment of long-lived assets

Long-lived assets of the Company are reviewed at least annually, more often if circumstances dictate, to determine whether their carrying values have become impaired. The Company considers assets to be impaired if the carrying values exceed the future projected cash flows from related operations. The Company also re-evaluates the periods of depreciation and amortization to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. As of March 31, 2009, the Company expects these assets to be fully recoverable.

Beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes

The Company accounts for the $5,000,000 and $30,000,000 secured convertible notes issued pursuant to the subscription agreements discussed in Note 14 under EITF 00-27,  ‘‘Application of Issue 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments.”  In accordance with EITF 00-27, the Company has determined that the convertible notes contained beneficial conversion feature because on November 6, 2007, the effective conversion price of the $5,000,000 convertible note was $5.48 when the market value per share was $16.00, and on May 30, 2008, the effective conversion price of the $30,000,000 convertible note was $4.69 when the market value per share was $12.00. Total value of beneficial conversion feature of $2,904,092 for the November 6, 2007 convertible note and $19,111,323 for the May 30, 2008 convertible debt was discounted from the carrying value of the convertible notes. The beneficial conversion feature is amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the note. As of March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2008, $18,776,786 and $20,453,441, respectively, remained unamortized relating to the beneficial conversion features.

Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” and FIN 48,  "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109."  Under the asset and liability method as required by SFAS 109, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. Under SFAS 109, the effect on deferred income taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. 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. Since the Company’s operations are domiciled in the PRC, and the taxable income mirrors that of GAAP income, there are no temporary differences that would result in deferred tax assets or liabilities. As such, no valuation allowances were necessary at March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2008.

FIN 48 clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertain tax positions and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Under FIN 48, evaluation of a tax position is a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigation based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met.

The Company’s operations are subject to income and transaction taxes in the United States and in the PRC jurisdictions. Significant estimates and judgments are required in determining the Company’s worldwide provision for income taxes. Some of these estimates are based on interpretations of existing tax laws or regulations, and as a result the ultimate amount of tax liability may be uncertain. However, the Company does not anticipate any events that would lead to changes to these uncertainties.

Value added tax

The Company is subject to value added tax (“VAT”) for manufacturing products and business tax for services provided. The applicable VAT rate is 17% for products sold in the PRC. The amount of VAT liability is determined by applying the applicable tax rate to the invoiced amount of goods sold (output VAT) less VAT paid on purchases made with the relevant supporting invoices (input VAT). Under the commercial practice of the PRC, the Company paid     VAT based on tax invoices issued. The tax invoices may be issued subsequent to the date on which revenue is recognized, and there may be a considerable delay between the date on which the revenue is recognized and the date on which the tax invoice is issued. In the event that the PRC tax authorities dispute the date on which revenue is recognized for tax purposes, the PRC tax office has the right to assess a penalty, which can range from zero to five times the amount of the taxes which are determined to be late or deficient, and will be charged to operations in the period if and when a determination is been made by the taxing authorities that a penalty is due.

VAT on sales and VAT on purchases amounted to approximately $4,372,000 and $712,000, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2009, and approximately $4,807,000 and $259,000, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2008. VAT on sales and VAT on purchases amounted to approximately $14,659,000 and $1,867,000, respectively, for the nine months ended March 31, 2009, and approximately $12,114,000 and $443,000, respectively, for the nine months ended March 31, 2008. Sales and purchases are recorded net of VAT collected and paid as the Company acts as an agent for the government. VAT is not impacted by the income tax holiday.

Shipping and handling

Shipping and handling costs related to costs of goods sold are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. Shipping and handling costs amounted to approximately $153,000 and $107,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Shipping and handling costs amounted to approximately $405,000 and $253,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Advertising

Expenses incurred in the advertisement of the Company and the Company’s products are charged to operations as incurred. Advertising expenses amounted to approximately $1,192,000 and $2,019,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and approximately $2,120,000 and $6,148,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Research and development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. These costs primarily consist of cost of materials used and salaries paid for the development of the Company’s products and fees paid to third parties to assist in such efforts. Research and development costs amounted to approximately $1,099,000 and $968,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and approximately $3,295,000 and $2,170,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141(R), “Business Combinations,” which replaced SFAS 141. SFAS 141R retains the purchase method of accounting for acquisitions, but requires a number of changes, including changes in the way assets and liabilities are recognized in the purchase accounting as well as requiring the expensing of acquisition-related costs as incurred. Furthermore, SFAS 141R provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141R is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The Company is evaluating the impact, if any, that the adoption of this statement will have on its consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — An Amendment of ARB No. 51.”  SFAS 160 amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It is intended to eliminate the diversity in practice regarding the accounting for transactions between equity and noncontrolling interests by requiring that they be treated as equity transactions. Further, it requires consolidated net income to be reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and the noncontrolling interest. SFAS 160 also establishes a single method of accounting for changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation, requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, requires expanded disclosures in the consolidated financial statements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent’s owners and the interests of the noncontrolling owners of a subsidiary, among others. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, with early adoption permitted, and it is to be applied prospectively. SFAS 160 is to be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which it is initially applied, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements, which must be applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that SFAS 160 will have on its consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations.

In February 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. 157-1 , "Application of FASB Statement No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease Classification or Measurement under Statement 13."  FSP 157-1 indicates that it does not apply under SFAS 13,  "Accounting for Leases,"  and other accounting pronouncements that address fair value measurements for purposes of lease classification or measurement under SFAS 13. This scope exception does not apply to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that are required to be measured at fair value under SFAS 141 or SFAS 141R, regardless of whether those assets and liabilities are related to leases.

Also in February 2008, the FASB issued FSP 157-2, "Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157." With the issuance of FSP 157-2, the FASB agreed to: (a) defer the effective date in SFAS No. 157 for one year for certain 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), and (b) remove certain leasing transactions from the scope of SFAS 157. The deferral is intended to provide the FASB time to consider the effect of certain implementation issues that have arisen from the application of SFAS 157 to these assets and liabilities.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 161 is intended to improve financial reporting of derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable financial statement users to better understand the effects of derivatives and hedging on an entity's financial position, financial performance and cash flows. The provisions of SFAS 161 are effective for interim periods and fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS 161 will have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles." SFAS 162 is intended to improve financial reporting by identifying a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with GAAP for nongovernmental entities. SFAS 162 is effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) amendments to AU Section 411,  "The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles." The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 162 will have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.

On May 9, 2008, the FASB issued FASB FSP APB 14-1, "Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)."  FSP APB 14-1 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, FSP APB 14-1 specifies that issuers of such instruments should separately account for the liability and equity components in a manner that will reflect the entity's nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. FSP APB14-1 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that FSP APB 14-1 will have on its consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.

On June 16, 2008, the FASB issued FSP EITF 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities,”  to address the question of whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting. FSP EITF 03-6-1 indicates that unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to dividend payments should be included in earnings per share calculations. The guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of FSP EITF 03-6-1 and the impact that its adoption will have on the consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.

In June 2008, the FASB issued EITF 07-5, “Determining whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock.”  EITF 07-5 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is not permitted. Paragraph 11(a) of SFAS No. 133  “Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging Activities,”  specifies that a contract that would otherwise meet the definition of a derivative but is both (a) indexed to the Company’s own stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the statement of financial position would not be considered a derivative financial instrument. EITF 07-5 provides a new two-step model to be applied in determining whether a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own stock and thus able to qualify for the SFAS 133 paragraph 11(a) scope exception. This standard triggers liability accounting on all options and warrants exercisable at strike prices denominated in any currency other than the functional currency of the operating entity in the PRC (Renminbi). The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of EITF 07-5 on the accounting for related warrants transactions.

In June 2008, FASB issued EITF 08-4, “Transition Guidance for Conforming Changes to Issue No. 98-5.”  The objective of EITF 08-4 is to provide transition guidance for conforming changes made to EITF 98-5,  “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios,”  that result from EITF 00-27 “  Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments,”  and SFAS 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity.”  EITF 08-4 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. Early application is permitted. The adoption of EITF08-4 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.

On October 10, 2008, the FASB issued FSP 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active,”  which clarifies the application of SFAS 157 when the market for a financial asset is inactive. Specifically, FSP 157-3 clarifies how (1) management’s internal assumptions should be considered in measuring fair value when observable data are not present, (2) observable market information from an inactive market should be taken into account, and (3) the use of broker quotes or pricing services should be considered in assessing the relevance of observable and unobservable data to measure fair value. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of FSP 157-3 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly.”  FSP 157-4 amends SFAS 157 and provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with SFAS 157 when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly for fair value measurements. FSP 157-4 shall be applied prospectively with retrospective application not permitted. FSP 157-4 shall be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. An entity early adopting FSP 157-4 must also early adopt FSP 115-2 and 124-2, “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments.” Additionally, if an entity elects to early adopt either FSP 107-1 and 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” or FSP 115-2 and 124-2, it must also elect to early adopt this FSP. The Company is currently evaluating this new FSP but does not believe that it will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP 115-2 and 124-2. FSP 115-2 amends SFAS 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,” SFAS 124, “Accounting for Certain Investments Held by Not-for-Profit Organizations,” and EITF 99-20, “Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased Beneficial Interests and Beneficial Interests That Continue to Be Held by a Transferor in Securitized Financial Assets,” to make the other-than-temporary impairments guidance more operational and to improve the presentation of other-than-temporary impairments in the financial statements. This FSP will replace the existing requirement that the entity’s management assert it has both the intent and ability to hold an impaired debt security until recovery with a requirement that management assert it does not have the intent to sell the security, and it is more likely than not it will not have to sell the security before recovery of its cost basis. This FSP provides increased disclosure about the credit and noncredit components of impaired debt securities that are not expected to be sold and also requires increased and more frequent disclosures regarding expected cash flows, credit losses, and an aging of securities with unrealized losses. Although this FSP does not result in a change in the carrying amount of debt securities, it does require that the portion of an other-than-temporary impairment not related to a credit loss for a held-to-maturity security be recognized in a new category of other comprehensive income and be amortized over the remaining life of the debt security as an increase in the carrying value of the security. This FSP shall be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. An entity may early adopt this FSP only if it also elects to early adopt FSP 157-4. Also, if an entity elects to early adopt either FSP 157-4 or FSP 107-1 and 28-1, the entity also is required to early adopt this FSP. The Company is currently evaluating this new FSP but does not believe that it will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP 107-1 and 28-1. This FSP amends SFAS 107, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments not measured on the balance sheet at fair value in interim financial statements as well as in annual financial statements. Prior to this FSP, fair values for these assets and liabilities were only disclosed annually. This FSP applies to all financial instruments within the scope of SFAS 107 and requires all entities to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments. This FSP shall be effective for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. An entity may early adopt this FSP only if it also elects to early adopt FSP 157-4 and 115-2 and 124-2. This FSP does not require disclosures for earlier periods presented for comparative purposes at initial adoption. In periods after initial adoption, this FSP requires comparative disclosures only for periods ending after initial adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the disclosure requirements of this new FSP.

Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the prior period’s consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation with no impact on the previously reported net income or cash flows.

Note 3 - Acquisition

On January 23, 2009, Laiyang Jiangbo entered into an asset acquisition agreement (the “Agreement”) with Shandong Traditional Chinese Medicine College (the “Medicine College”) and Shandong Hongrui Pharmaceutical Factory (“Shandong Hongrui” or “Hongrui”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Medicine College,  pursuant to  which Laiyang Jiangbo purchased the majority of the assets owned by Hongrui, including all tangible assets, all manufacturing and office buildings, land, equipment and inventories and all rights to manufacture and distribute Hongrui’s 22 Traditional Chinese Medicines (“TCMs”), for an original contract purchase price of approximately $12 million consisted of approximately $9.6 million in cash and 643,651 shares of Jiangbo’s common stock. The $4.035 fair value of each common share was based on the weighted average trading price of the common stock of 5 days prior to the execution of the Agreement and amounted to $2,597,132. On February 10, 2009, the Agreement was amended to revise the total purchase price to approximately $11 million consisting of approximately $8.6 million in cash. However, the Company is still obligated to issue 643,651 shares of Jiangbo’s common stock to Medicine College within one year of the date of the execution of the Agreement. As of March 31, 2009, Laiyang Jiangbo paid approximately $8.6 million in cash in full. The 643,651 shares of Jiangbo’s common stock issuable to Medicine College in connection with the acquisition of Hongrui have been included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as outstanding shares.

The Company accounted for this acquisition using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with SFAS 141, “ Business Combinations .” The purchase price was determined based on an arm's length negotiation and no finder's fees or commissions were paid in connection with this acquisition.

The following represents the allocation of the purchase price to the net assets acquired based on their respective fair values.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the acquisition of Hongrui, effective February 5, 2009, under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with SFAS 141.  The following represents the allocation of the purchase price to the net assets acquired based on their respective fair values.

Note 4 – Earnings (loss) per share

The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 128, “Earnings Per Share.” SFAS 128 requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such earnings per share. Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock.

All share and per share amounts used in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been retroactively restated to reflect the 40-to-1 reverse stock split, which occurred on September 4, 2008.

The following is a reconciliation of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008:

Note 5 - Discontinued operations

In connection with the reverse merger with Karmoya on October 1, 2007, the Company determined to discontinue its operations of business development and marketing, as it no longer supported its core business strategy. The discontinuance of these operations did not involve any sale of assets or assumption of liabilities by another party. In conjunction with the discontinuance of operations, the Company determined that the assets related to the Company’s business development and marketing operations were subject to the recognition of impairment. However, since the related assets are continuing to be used by the company and its subsidiaries, the Company determined that there had been no impairment. The remaining liabilities of the discontinued operations are reflected in the consolidated balance sheets under the caption "liabilities assumed from reorganization" which amounted to approximately $1,614,000 and $1,084,000 as of March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2008, respectively.

In accordance with SFAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” the results of operations of a component of entity that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale shall be reported in discontinued operations. Accordingly, the results of operations of the business development and marketing operation segment are reported as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended March 31, 2009. As the accompanying consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 reflect the results of operations for Karmoya and its subsidiaries, the discontinued operations of the Company did not have any impact on the consolidated statements of income for the period presented.

Note 11 - Concentration of major customers, suppliers, and products

For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, three products accounted for 89% and 95% of the Company’s total sales. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, three products accounted for 93% and 95%, respectively, of the Company’s total sales.

Five largest customers accounted for approximately 37% and 19% of the Company’s sales for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and 22% and 21% of the Company's sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. These five customers represent 16% and 11.8% of the Company's total accounts receivable as of March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2008, respectively.

Five suppliers accounted for approximately 33% and 71% of the Company’s purchases for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and 56% and 61%, of the Company's purchases for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and. These five suppliers represent 62% and 63.8% of the Company's total accounts payable as of March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2008, respectively.

Note 12 - Taxes payable

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income taxes at a tax rate of 34%. No provision for U.S. income taxes has been made as the Company had no U.S. taxable income during the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries Karmoya and Union Well were incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and the Cayman Islands, respectively, and under the current laws of the BVI and the Cayman Islands, the two entities are not subject to income taxes.

Prior to January 1, 2008, companies established in the PRC were generally subject to an enterprise income tax ("EIT") rate of 33%, which included a 30% state income tax and a 3% local income tax. The PRC local government has provided various incentives to companies in order to encourage economic development. Such incentives include reduced tax rates and other measures. On March 16, 2007, the National People's Congress of China passed the new Enterprise Income Tax Law ("EIT Law"), and on November 28, 2007, the State Council of China passed the Implementing Rules for the EIT Law ("Implementing Rules") which took effect on January 1, 2008. The EIT Law and Implementing Rules impose a unified EIT rate of 25.0% on all domestic-invested enterprises and Foreign Investment Enterprises (“FIEs”), unless they qualify under certain limited exceptions. Therefore, nearly all FIEs are subject to the new tax rate alongside other domestic businesses rather than benefiting from the FEIT, and its associated preferential tax treatments, beginning on January 1, 2008.

 
26

 

In addition to the changes to the current tax structure, under the EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with "de facto management bodies" within China is considered a resident enterprise and will normally be subject to an EIT of 25% on its global income. The Implementing Rules define the term "de facto management bodies" as "an establishment that exercises, in substance, overall management and control over the production, business, personnel, accounting, etc., of a Chinese enterprise." If the PRC tax authorities subsequently determine that the Company should be classified as a resident enterprise, then the organization's global income will be subject to PRC income tax of 25%. Laiyang Jiangbo and GJBT were subject to 25% income tax rate since January 1, 2008, and 33% income tax rate prior to January 1, 2008.

The table below summarizes the differences between the U.S. statutory federal rate and the Company’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008:

Note 13- Convertible Debt

November 2007 Convertible Debentures

On November 7, 2007, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “November 2007 Purchase Agreement”) with Pope Investments, LLC (“Pope”) (the “November 2007 Investor”). Pursuant to the November 2007 Purchase Agreement, the Company issued and sold to the November 2007 Investor, $5,000,000 principal amount of the 6% convertible subordinated debentures due November 30, 2010 (the “November 2007 Debenture”) and a three-year warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, exercisable at $12.80 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein. The November 2007 Debenture bears interest at the rate of 6% per annum and the initial conversion price of the debentures is $10 per share. In connection with the offering, the Company placed in escrow 500,000 shares of its common stock. In connection with the May 2008 financing, the November 2007 Debenture conversion price was subsequently adjusted to $8 per share (post 40-to-1 reverse split).
  
The Company evaluated the application of EITF 98-5, “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios,”  and EITF 00-27,  “Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments,”  and concluded that the convertible debenture has a beneficial conversion feature.  The Company estimated the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature of the November 2007 Debenture at $2,904,093. The fair value of the warrants was estimated at $2,095,907. The two amounts are recorded together as debt discount and amortized using the effective interest method over the three-year term of debentures.

The fair value of the warrants granted with this private placement was computed using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Variables used in the option-pricing model include (1) risk-free interest rate at the date of grant (4.5%), (2) expected warrant life of three years, (3) expected volatility of 197%, and (4) zero expected dividends. The total estimated fair value of the warrants granted and beneficial conversion feature of the November 2007 Debenture should not exceed the $5,000,000 November 2007 Debenture, and the calculated warrant value was used to determine the allocation between the fair value of the beneficial conversion feature of the November 2007 Debenture and the fair value of the warrants.

 
27

 

In connection with the private placement, the Company paid the placement agents a fee of $250,000 and incurred other expenses of $104,408, which were capitalized as deferred debt issuance costs and are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the debentures. For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, amortization of debt issuance costs related to the November 2007 Purchase Agreement was $29,533 and $29,534, respectively.  For the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, amortization of debt issuance costs related to the November 2007 Purchase Agreement was $88,602 and $47,583, respectively. The remaining balance of unamortized debt issuance costs of the November 2007 Purchase Agreement at March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2008 was $188,689 and $277,291,   respectively. The amortization of debt discounts was $219,362 and $88,615 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The amortization of debt discounts was $539,278 and $434,006 for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. These amounts have been included in interest expense on the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The balance of the unamortized debt discount was $3,915,362 and $4,454,641 at March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2008, respectively.

The Company evaluated whether or not the secured convertible debentures contain embedded conversion options, which meet the definition of derivatives under SFAS 133 and related interpretations. The Company concluded that since the secured convertible debentures had a fixed conversion rate of $10, the secured convertible debt was not a derivative instrument.

The November 2007 Debenture bears interest at the rate of 6% per annum, payable in semi-annual installments on May 31 and November 30 of each year, with the first interest payment due on May 31, 2008. The initial conversion price (“November 2007 Conversion Price”) of the November 2007 Debentures is $10 per share. If the Company issues common stock at a price that is less than the effective November 2007 Conversion Price, or common stock equivalents with an exercise or conversion price less than the then effective November 2007 Conversion Price, the November 2007 Conversion Price of the November 2007 Debenture and the exercise price of the warrants will be reduced to such price. In connection with the May 2008 financing, the November 2007 Debenture conversion price was subsequently adjusted to $8.00 per share (Post 40-to-1 reverse split). The November 2007 Debenture may not be prepaid without the prior written consent of the Holder, as defined. In connection with the Offering, the Company placed in escrow 500,000 shares of common stock issued by the Company in the name of the escrow agent. In the event the Company’s consolidated Net Income Per Share (as defined in the November 2007 Purchase Agreement), for the year ended June 30, 2008, is less than $1.52, the escrow agent shall deliver the 500,000 shares to the November 2007 Investor. The Company determined that its fiscal year 2008 Net Income Per Share met the required amount and no shares were delivered to the November 2007 Investor.

Pursuant to the November 2007 Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement. In accordance with the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company must file on each Filing Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) a registration statement to register the portion of the Registrable Securities (as defined therein) as permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) guidance. The initial registration statement must be filed within 90 days of the closing date and declared effective within 180 days following such closing date. Any subsequent registration statements that are required to be filed on the earliest practical date on which the Company is permitted by the SEC’s guidance to file such additional registration statements, these statements must be effective 90 days following the date on which it is required to be filed. In the event that the registration statement is not timely filed or declared effective, the Company will be required to pay liquidated damages. Such liquidated damages shall be, at the investor’s option, either $1,643.83 or 164 shares of common stock per day that the registration statement is not timely filed or declared effective as required pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, subject to an amount of liquidated damages not exceeding either $600,000, and 60,000 shares of common stock, or a combination thereof based upon 12% liquidated damages in the aggregate. In December 2006, the FASB issued FSP EITF 00-19-2,  "Accounting for Registration Payments,"  which was effective immediately. FSP EITF 00-19-2 amended EITF 00-19 to require potential registration payment arrangements be treated as a contingency pursuant to SFAS 5,  “Accounting for Contingencies,”  rather than at fair value. The November 2007 Investor has subsequently agreed to allow the Company to file the November 2007 registration statement in conjunction with the Company’s financing in May 2008 and, as such, no liquidated damages were incurred for the year ended June 30, 2008.

 The financing was completed through a private placement to accredited investors and is exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 ("Securities Act"), as amended.

May 2008 Convertible Debentures

On May 30, 2008, the “Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “May 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain investors (the “May 2008 Investors”), pursuant to which, on May 30, 2008, the Company sold to the May 2008 Investors 6% convertible debentures (the “May 2008 Notes”) and warrants to purchase 1,875,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (“May 2008 Warrants”), for an aggregate amount of $30,000,000 (the “May 2008 Purchase Price”), in transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act (the “May 2008 Financing”). Pursuant to the terms of the May 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company will use the net proceeds from this financing for working capital purposes. Also pursuant to the terms of the May 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company, among other things, was required to increase the number of its authorized shares of common stock to 22,500,000 by August 31, 2008, and is prohibited from issuing any “Future Priced Securities” as such term is described by NASD IM-4350-1 for one year following the closing of the May 2008 Financing. The Company has satisfied the increase in the number of its authorized shares of common stock in August 2008 (post 40-to-1 reverse split).

The May 2008 Notes are due May 30, 2011, and are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to $8 per share, subject to adjustment pursuant to customary anti-dilution provisions and automatic downward adjustments in the event of certain sales or issuances by the Company of common stock at a price per share less than $8. Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the May 2008 Notes is 6% per annum, payable in semi-annual installments on November 30 and May 30 of each year, with the first interest payment due on November 30, 2008. At any time after the issuance of the May 2008 Note, any May 2008 Investor may convert its May 2008 Note, in whole or in part, into shares of the Company’s common stock, provided that such May 2008 Investor shall not effect any conversion if immediately after such conversion, such May 2008 Investor and its affiliates would, in the aggregate, beneficially own more than 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The May 2008 Notes are convertible at the option of the Company if the following four conditions are met: (i) effectiveness of a registration statement with respect to the shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the May 2008 Notes and the May 2008 Warrants; (ii) the Volume Weighted Average Price (“VWAP” of the common stock has been equal to or greater than 250% of the conversion price, as adjusted, for 20 consecutive trading days on its principal trading market; (iii) the average dollar trading volume of the common stock exceeds $500,000 on its principal trading market for the same 20 days; and (iv) the Company achieves 2008 Guaranteed EBT (as hereinafter defined) and 2009 Guaranteed EBT (as hereinafter defined). A holder of a May 2008 Note may require the Company to redeem all or a portion of such May 2008 Note for cash at a redemption price as set forth in the May 2008 Notes, in the event of a change in control of the Company, an event of default or if any governmental agency in the PRC challenges or takes action that would adversely affect the transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement. The May 2008 Warrants are exercisable for a five-year period beginning on May 30, 2008, at an initial exercise price of $10 per share.

The Company evaluated the application of EITF 98-5, and EITF 00-27and concluded that the convertible debenture has a beneficial conversion feature.  The Company estimated the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature of the May 2008 Note at $19,111,323. The fair value of the warrants was estimated at $10,888,677. The two amounts are recorded together as debt discount and amortized using the effective interest method over the three-year term of the debentures.

The fair value of the warrants granted with this private placement was computed using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Variables used in the option-pricing model include (1) risk-free interest rate at the date of grant (4.2%), (2) expected warrant life of five years, (3) expected volatility of 95%, and (4) zero expected dividends. The total estimated fair value of the warrants granted and beneficial conversion feature of the May 2008 Note should not exceed the $30,000,000 debenture, and the calculated warrant value was used to determine the allocation between the fair value of the beneficial conversion feature of the May 2008 debenture and the fair value of the warrants.

In connection with the private placement, the Company paid the placement agents a fee of $1,500,000 and incurred other expenses of $186,500, which were capitalized as deferred debt issuance costs and are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the debenture. During the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2009, amortization of debt issuance costs related to the May 2008 Purchase Agreement was $140,541 and $421,625, respectively. The remaining balance of unamortized debt issuance costs of the May 2008 Purchase Agreement at March 31, 2009 was $1,218,028. The amortization of debt discounts was $813,929 and $2,140,247 for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2009, respectively, which have been included in interest expense on the accompanying consolidated statements of income. The balance of the unamortized debt discount was $25,905,069 and $28,045,316 at March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2008, respectively.

The Company evaluated whether or not the secured convertible debentures contain embedded conversion options, which meets the definition of derivatives under SFAS 133 and related interpretations. The Company concluded that since the secured convertible debentures had a fixed conversion rate of $8 per share, the secured convertible debt was not a derivative instrument.

In connection with the May 2008 Financing, the Company entered into a holdback escrow agreement (the “Holdback Escrow Agreement”) dated May 30, 2008, with the May 2008 Investors and Loeb & Loeb LLP, as Escrow Agent, pursuant to which $4,000,000 of the May 2008 Purchase Price was deposited into an escrow account with the Escrow Agent at the closing of the financing. Pursuant to the terms of the Holdback Escrow Agreement, (i) $2,000,000 of the escrowed funds will be released to the Company upon the Company’s satisfaction no later than 120 days following the closing of the financing of an obligation that the board of directors be comprised of at least five members (at least two of whom are to be fluent English speakers who possess necessary experience to serve as a director of a public company), a majority of whom will be independent directors acceptable to Pope and (ii) $2,000,000 of the escrowed funds will be released to the Company upon the Company’s satisfaction no later than six months following the closing of the financing of an obligation to hire a qualified full-time chief financial officer (as defined in the May 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement). In the event that either or both of these obligations were not so satisfied, the applicable portion of the escrowed funds will be released pro rata to the May 2008 Investors. The Company has satisfied both of these requirements and all of the holdback money has been released to the Company.

In connection with the May 2008 Financing, Mr. Cao, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, placed 3,750,000 shares of common stock of the Company owned by him into an escrow account pursuant to a make good escrow agreement, dated May 30, 2008 (the “Make Good Escrow Agreement”). In the event that either (i) the Company’s adjusted 2008 earnings before taxes is less than $26,700,000 (“2008 Guaranteed EBT”) or (ii) the Company’s 2008 adjusted fully diluted earnings before taxes per share is less than $1.60 (“2008 Guaranteed Diluted EBT”), 1,500,000 of such shares (the “2008 Make Good Shares”) are to be released pro rata to the May 2008 Investors. In the event that either (i) the Company’s adjusted 2009 earnings before taxes is less than $38,400,000 (“2009 Guaranteed EBT”) or (ii) the Company’s adjusted fully diluted earnings before taxes per share is less than $2.32 (or $2.24 if the 500,000 shares of common stock held in escrow in connection with the November 2007 private placement have been released from escrow) (“2009 Guaranteed Diluted EBT”), 2,250,000 of such shares (the “2009 Make Good Shares”) are to be released pro rata to the May 2008 Investors. Should the Company successfully satisfy these respective financial milestones, the 2008 Make Good Shares and 2009 Make Good Shares will be returned to Mr. Cao. In addition, Mr. Cao is required to deliver shares of common stock owned by him to the Investors on a pro rata basis equal to the number of shares (the “Settlement Shares”) required to satisfy all costs and expenses associated with the settlement of all legal and other matters pertaining to the Company prior to or in connection with the completion of the Company’s October 2007 share exchange in accordance with formulas set forth in the May 2008 Securities Purchase Agreement (post 40-to-1 reverse split).

 The security purchase agreement set forth permitted indebtedness which the Company’s lease obligations and purchase money indebtedness is limited up to $1,500,000 per year in connection with new acquisition of capital assets and lease obligations. Permitted investment set forth with the security purchase agreement limits capital expenditure of the Company not to exceed $5,000,000 in any rolling 12 months.

Pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement, the Company agreed to file a registration statement covering the resale of the shares of common stock underlying the May 2008 Notes and Warrants, (ii) the 2008 Make Good Shares, (iii) the 2009 Make Good Shares, and (iv) the Settlement Shares. The Company was obligated to file an initial registration statement covering the shares of common stock underlying the Notes and Warrants no later than 45 days from the closing of the financing and to have such registration statement declared effective no later than 180 days from the closing of the financing. If the Company did not timely file such registration statement or cause it to be declared effective by the required dates, then the Company would be required to pay liquidated damages to the Investors equal to 1.0% of the aggregate May 2008 Purchase Price paid by such Investors for each month that the Company does not file the registration statement or cause it to be declared effective. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall liquidated damages exceed 10% of the aggregate amount of the May 2008 Purchase Price. The Company satisfied its obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement by filing the required registration statement and causing it to be declared effective within the time periods set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement.

Note 14 - Shareholders’ equity

Common Stock

In July 2008, the Board of Directors approved a 40-to-1 reverse stock split that became effective on September 4, 2008, and a new trading symbol “GNPH” also became effective on that day. Those holding fractional shares were rounded up the next whole share. Subsequent to the stock split, the Company had approximately 9,768,000 shares issued and outstanding. The total number of authorized shares became 22,500,000. These consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse split. Additionally, all share representations are on a post-split basis.

In July 2008, in connection with the settlement (see Note 20) with Mr. Fernando Praca (Fernando Praca, Plaintiff vs. EXTREMA, LLC and Genesis Pharmaceuticals Enterprises, Inc.- Case No. 50 2005 CA 005317, Circuit Court of the 15th Judicial Circuit in and for Palm Beach County, Florida), the Company cancelled 2,500 shares of its common stock (post 40-to-1 reverse split) and the cancelled shares were valued at fair market value on the date of cancellation at $8 per share or $20,000 in total, based on the trading price of the common stock. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009, the Company recorded settlement income of $20,000 related to this settlement.

In July 2008, the Company issued 2,500 shares of common stock to two of the Company’s current and former directors as part of their compensation for services. The Company valued these shares at the fair market value on the date of grant of $8 per share, or $20,000 in total, based on the trading price of common stock (post 40-to-1 reverse split). In September 2008, the Company issued 2,500 shares of common stock to two of the Company’s current and ex-directors as part of compensation for services. The Company valued these shares at the fair market value on the date of grant of $9 per share, or $22,500 in total, based on the trading price of common stock (post 40-to-1 reverse split).

In December 2008, the Company issued 20,000 shares of its common stock in connection with the conversion of $160,000 of convertible debt. In connection with the conversion, the Company recorded $145,524 interest expense to fully amortize the unamortized discount related to the converted dentures.

In November 2008, the Board of the Directors of the Company authorized a share buyback program to purchase the Company’s common stock in the open market with a $2,000,000 limitation. As of March 31, 2009, the Company has not purchased any shares in the open market.

In January 2009, in connection with the Hongrui acquisition, the Company recorded 643,651 shares of Jiangbo’s common stock issuable  to Shandong Traditional Chinese Medicine College as part of the consideration for acquisition.  The fair value of the common stock of $4.035 per share was based on the weighted average trading price of 5 days prior to the date of the acquisition, and amounted to $2,597,132.

In May 2009, in connection with the Company’s name change to Jiangbo Pharmaceuticals, Inc., the Company changed the trading symbol for its common stock to “JGBO.”  This change in trading symbol became effective on May 12, 2009.

Registered capital contribution receivable

At inception, Karmoya issued 1,000 shares of common stock to its founder. The shares were valued at par value. On September 20, 2007, the Company issued 9,000 shares of common stock to nine individuals at par value. The balance of $10,000 is shown in capital contribution receivable on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As part of its agreements with shareholders, the Company was to receive the entire $10,000 in October 2007. As of March 31, 2009, the Company has not received the $10,000.

Union Well was established with a registered capital of $1,000. In connection with Karmoya’s acquisition of Union Well, the registered capital of $1,000 is reflected as capital contribution receivable on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The $1,000 was due in October 2007, however, as of March 31, 2009, the Company has not received the $1,000.

PRC laws require the owner of a WOFE to contribute at least 15% of the registered capital within 90 days of its business license issuance date and the remaining balance is required to be contributed within two years of the business license issuance date. In June 2008, the PRC government approved GJBT to increase its registered capital from $12,000,000 to $30,000,000. By June 30, 2008, the Company had funded GJBT the entire registered capital required in accordance with PRC laws. In August 2008, the PRC government approved GJBT to increase its registered capital from $30,000,000 to $59,800,000. The PRC laws require Union Well, the 100% owner of GJBT to contribute at least 20% of the registered capital within 30 days of the approval, and the remaining balance is required to be contributed within two years of the approval date. In August 2008, GJBT received additional registered capital in the amount of approximately $1,966,000. As of March 31, 2009, the Company has not received the remaining contribution receivable in the amount of $27,845,000. If the remaining contribution receivable cannot be received by August 2010, the Company may be required to reduce its registered capital or apply to extend the registered capital due date with the government.

Note 15 - Warrants

In connection with the May 2008 financing, the exercise price of outstanding warrants issued in 2004 to purchase 74,085 shares of common stock was reduced to $8 per share. The 2004 warrants contain full ratchet anti-dilution provisions to the exercise price, in which due to the Company’s May 2008 Financing, resulted in the 2004 warrants to be exercisable at $8 per share. The provisions of the 2004 warrants, which result in the reduction of the exercise price, remain in place. The 74,085 shares of warrants were fully expired as of March 31, 2009.

In connection with the $5,000,000 November 2007 Convertible Debentures, 6% convertible subordinated debentures note, the Company issued a three-year warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $12.80 per share. The calculated fair value of the warrants granted with this private placement was computed using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Variables used in the option-pricing model include (1) risk-free interest rate at the date of grant (4.5%), (2) expected warrant life of three years, (3) expected volatility of 197%, and (4) zero expected dividends. In connection with the May 2008 Financing, the exercise price of outstanding warrants issued in November 2007 was reduced to $8 per share and the total number of warrants to purchase common stock was increased to 400,000.

In connection with the $30,000,000 May 2008 Convertible Debentures, the Company issued a five-year warrant to purchase 1,875,000 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $10 per share. The calculated fair value of the warrants granted with this private placement was computed using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Variables used in the option-pricing model include (1) risk-free interest rate at the date of grant (4.5%), (2) expected warrant life of five years, (3) expected volatility of 95%, and (4) zero expected dividends.

On February 15, 2009, the Company granted 40,000 stock warrants to a consultant at an exercise price of $6.00 per share exercisable for a period of three years. The warrants fully vest on July 15, 2009.  The fair value of this warrant grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: (1) risk-free interest rate at the date of grant (1.83%), (2) expected warrant life of three years, (3) expected volatility of 106%, and (4) zero expected dividends. In connection with these warrants, the Company recorded stock-based deferred compensation of $123,908 for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2009.
