CHINA BOTANIC PHARMACEUTICAL INC.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

January 31, 2012

1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of China Botanic Pharmaceutical Inc. (“CBP”) and its subsidiaries. CBP and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company.”

CBP was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 18, 1988, originally under the corporate name of Solutions, Incorporated. It was inactive until August 16, 1996, when it changed its corporate name to Suarro Communications, Inc, and engaged in the business of providing internet based business services. This line of business was discontinued in 2006, and CBP became a non-operating public company. CBP underwent a number of corporate name changes as follows:

June 1997		ComTech Consolidation Group, Inc
February 1999		E-Net Corporation
May 1999		E-Net Financial Corporation
January 2000		E-Net.Com Corporation
February 2000		E-Net Financial.Com Corporation
January 2002		Anza Capital, Inc (“Anza”)
June 2006		Renhuang Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
October 2010		China Botanic Pharmaceutical Inc.

Effective August 28, 2006, CBP completed the acquisition of 100% ownership of Harbin Renhuang Pharmaceutical Company Limited, a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands. As a result, Harbin Renhuang Pharmaceutical Company Limited became a wholly owned subsidiary of CBP.

Harbin Renhuang Pharmaceutical Company Limited owns 100% of the registered capital of Harbin Renhuang Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd (“CBP China”).

The core activities of subsidiaries included in the condensed consolidated financial statements are as follow:

•	Harbin Renhuang Pharmaceutical Company Limited – Investment holding.
•	CBP China – Development, manufacturing and distribution of pharmaceutical products.

CBP China’s principal country of operations is the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) and maintains their accounting records in Renminbi (“RMB”). Substantially all of the Company’s assets and operation are located in the PRC.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company has included all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the result of operations for the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011. The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes for the year ended October 31, 2011 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year due to seasonal and other factors.

This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes are representation of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011.

Basis of presentation of financial statements

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and are expressed in terms of US dollars.

The Company operates in one operating segment in accordance with accounting guidance FASB ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting”. Our CEO has been identified as the chief operating decision maker as defined by FASB ASC Topic 280.

Principles of consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of CBP and its subsidiaries.

All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

FASB ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation”, requires noncontrolling minority interests to represent the portion of earnings that is not within the parent company’s control. The noncontrolling minority interests are required to be reported as equity instead of as a liability on the balance sheet. In addition this statement requires net income from noncontrolling minority interest to be shown separately on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. The Company has no noncontrolling interest as of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011.

Use of estimates

The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affected the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reported periods.

Significant estimates and assumptions by management include, among others, uncollectible accounts receivable, slow moving, obsolete and/or damaged inventory, the carrying amount of property and equipment and intangible assets, reserve for employee benefit obligations, stock warrant valuation, noncash rental expense and other uncertainties. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions.

Foreign currency translation

The Company’s principal country of operations is in PRC. The financial position and results of operations of the subsidiaries are determined using the local currency (“Renminbi” or “RMB”) as the functional currency.

Translation of amounts from RMB into US dollars for reporting purposes is performed by translating the results of operations denominated in foreign currency at the weighted average rate of exchange during the reporting period. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated at the market rate of exchange ruling at that date. The registered equity capital denominated in the functional currency is translated at the historical rate of exchange at the time of capital contribution. All translation adjustments resulting from the translation of the financial statements into the reporting currency (US dollars) are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity.

As of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, the exchange rates were RMB 6.29 and RMB 6.38, respectively. For the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, the average exchange rates were RMB 6.33 and RMB 6.64 and the translation adjustments totaled $1,485,999 and $664,421, respectively.

Cash

There are no restriction to cash at January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011. Substantially all of the Company’s cash is held in bank accounts in the PRC and is not protected by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance or any other similar insurance. Given the current economic environment and risks in the banking industry, there is a risk that deposits may not be readily available.

Trade receivables, net

Trade receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Trade receivable payment terms vary and amounts due from customers are stated in the condensed consolidated financial statements net of an allowance for doubtful accounts and sales rebates. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in its trade receivables. Trade receivables outstanding longer than the payment terms are considered past due. The Company determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time the trade receivable is past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the counter party’s current ability to pay its obligation to the Company, and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes off receivables when they are deemed uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such trade receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts. There were no write offs for the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

Inventory, net

Inventory consists of raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods and is valued at the lower of cost or market value. The value of inventory is determined using the weighted average cost method and includes any related production overhead costs incurred in bringing the inventory to their present location and condition. Overhead costs included in finished goods include, direct labor cost and other costs directly applicable to the manufacturing process.

The Company estimates an inventory allowance for excessive, slow moving and obsolete inventories as well as inventory whose carrying value is in excess of net realizable value. Inventory amounts are reported net of such allowances. There were no inventory write offs for the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011.

Property and equipment, net

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the respective period.

Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives for significant property and equipment categories are as follows:

Machinery and equipment	10 years
Office equipment and furnishings	5-10 years
Motor vehicles	5-10 years

i. Intangible assets, net

Intangible assets consist of purchased patents and resource using right. Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization and any impairment. Intangible assets with a finite useful life are amortized using the straight-line method over valid periods varied from 10 to 30 years, which is the estimated economic life of the intangible assets.

j. Accounting for the impairment of long-lived assets

The Company’s long-lived assets and other assets (consisting of property and equipment) are reviewed for impairment in accordance with the guidance of the FASB ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment,” FASB ASC Topic 350, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Others," and FASB ASC Topic 205 “Presentation of Financial Statements.” The Company tests for impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of an asset to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Impairment evaluations involve management’s estimates on asset useful lives and future cash flows. Actual useful lives and cash flows could be different from those estimated by management which could have a material effect on our reporting results and financial positions. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary. Through the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had not experienced impairment losses on its long-lived assets. However, there can be no assurances that demand for the Company’s products or services will continue, which could result in an impairment of long-lived assets in the future.

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company applies the provisions of accounting guidance, FASB ASC Topic 825 that requires all entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value, and defines fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. As of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 the carrying value of cash, trade receivables, other receivables and accounts payable, approximated their fair value. All derivatives are recorded at fair value evaluated based on Black-Scholes option model.

l. Fair value measurements

The FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” clarifies the definition of fair value for financial reporting, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures about the use of fair value measurements.

Various inputs are considered when determining the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in these securities. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

•

Level 1 – observable market inputs that are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

•

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, credit risk, etc.).

•

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of financial instruments).

The Company’s adoption of FASB ASC Topic 825 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

The carrying value of financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value is measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. The Company had no financial assets or liabilities carried and measured on a nonrecurring basis during the reporting periods. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared.

The availability of inputs observable in the market varies from instrument to instrument and depends on a variety of factors including the type of instrument, whether the instrument is actively traded, and other characteristics particular to the transaction. For many financial instruments, pricing inputs are readily observable in the market, the valuation methodology used is widely accepted by market participants, and the valuation does not require significant management discretion. For other financial instruments, pricing inputs are less observable in the market and may require management judgment.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition,” which states that revenue should be recognized when the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) the service has been rendered; (3) the selling price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

Interest income is recognized when earned, taking into account the average principal amounts outstanding and the interest rates applicable.

During the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company has no sales or contracts that included multiple deliverables that would fall under the scope of FASB ASC Topic 605, “Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements – A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force.”

The Company provided annual sales rebates to its distributors based upon sales volumes. Sales rebates are recorded as a current liability at the time of the sale based upon the Company’s estimates of whether each customer would be entitled to rebates for the period. At quarter end, the accrued rebate amount is adjusted to the actual amount earned and reclassified to trade receivables in accordance with legal right of offset. Sales rebates were deducted from sales in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

As of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, the Company has accrued $2,464,641 and $1,681,721, respectively, for sales rebates, which offset the balance of trade receivables. For the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company has deducted sales rebates in the amount of $2,620,692 and $3,431,869, respectively, from sales. Sales rebates are calculated based on terms specified in contracts with individual distributors.

Sales returns and allowances

The Company does not allow return of products except for products that were damaged during shipment. The total amount of returned product is less than 0.05% of total sales. The cost of damaged products is netted against sales and cost of goods sold, respectively.

Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold primarily consists of direct and indirect manufacturing costs, including raw material, packaging material, production overhead costs, city construction tax and educational tax for the products sold.

Sales and marketing

Sales and marketing costs consist primarily of advertising and market promotion expenses, and other overhead expenses incurred by the Company’s sales and marketing personnel. Advertising expenses are expensed as incurred and amounted to $1,548,368 and $1,264,717 during the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Research and development

Research and development (“R&D”) consists primarily of cost of materials and overhead expenses incurred by research and development staff. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses amounted to $236,415 and $180,674 during the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Employee benefit costs

According to the PRC regulations on pension, a company contributes to a defined contribution retirement plan organized by municipal government in the province in which the CBP China was registered and all qualified employees are eligible to participate in the plan. Contributions to the plan are calculated at 22% of the employees’ salaries above a fixed threshold amount.

Share-based compensation

For purposes of determining the variables used in the calculation of stock compensation expense under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 505, “Equity” and FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation,” we perform an analysis of current market data and historical Company data to calculate an estimate of implied volatility, the expected term of the option and the expected forfeiture rate. With the exception of the expected forfeiture rate, which is not an input, we use these estimates as variables in the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Depending upon the number of stock options granted, any fluctuations in these calculations could have a material effect on the results presented in our condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income. In addition, any differences between estimated forfeitures and actual forfeitures could also have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Taxation

Taxation on profits earned in the PRC has been calculated on the estimated assessable profits for the year at the rates of taxation prevailing in the PRC in which the Company operates after taking into effect the benefits from any special tax credits or “tax holidays” allowed in the country of operations.

The Company accounts for income tax under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of the events that have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Deferred income taxes are recognized for all significant temporary differences between tax and financial statements bases of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are established against net deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company does not have any long-term deferred tax assets or liabilities in the PRC that will exist once the tax holiday expires. The Company does not have any significant deferred tax asset or liabilities that relate to tax jurisdictions not covered by the tax holiday.

The Company does not accrue United States income tax on unremitted earnings from foreign operations, as it is the Company’s intention to invest these earnings in the foreign operations indefinitely.

Generally, years beginning after fiscal 2006, the Company is open to examination by PRC taxing authorities. In the United States, we are open to examination from 2006 onward.

Enterprise income tax

On March 16, 2007, the PRC National People’s Congress passed the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law (“New EIT Law”) which became effective on January 1, 2008. Pursuant to the New EIT Law, a unified enterprise income tax rate of 25 percent and unified tax deduction standards will be applied consistently to both domestic-invested enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises. However, the New EIT Law repealed most of the existing preferential tax rates and tax holidays. A five-year transition period is allowed for enterprises that obtained preferential tax treatment under the prior tax regime. Under the prior tax regime, foreign-invested enterprises were generally subject to a 30 percent federal tax rate plus a 3 percent local tax rate for a total tax rate of 33 percent.

CBP China secured preferential tax treatment in the jurisdiction where it conducts its manufacturing activity, where it was granted tax exemption of 10% from the government, for being a new and high-technology enterprise.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets, including tax loss and credit carry forwards, and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred income tax expense represents the change during the period in the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are individually classified as current and noncurrent based on their characteristics. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

A provision has not been made for the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011 for U.S. or additional foreign withholding taxes on approximately $91,682,365 of undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because it is the present intention of management to reinvest the undistributed earnings indefinitely in foreign operations. Generally, such earnings become subject to U.S. tax upon the remittance of dividends and under certain other circumstances. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of deferred tax liability on such undistributed earnings.

The Company recognizes that virtually all tax positions in the PRC are not free of some degree of uncertainty due to tax law and policy changes by the State. However, the Company cannot reasonably quantify political risk factors and thus must depend on guidance issued by current State officials.

Based on all known facts and circumstances and current tax law, the Company believes that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 is not material to its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. The Company also believes that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of January 31, 2012, if recognized, would not have a material effect on its effective tax rate. The Company further believes that there are no tax positions for which it is reasonably possible, based on current Chinese tax law and policy, that the unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease over the next 12 months producing, individually or in the aggregate, a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Value added tax

The Provisional Regulations of The People’s Republic of China Concerning Value Added Tax promulgated by the State Council came into effect on January 1, 1994. Under these regulations and the Implementing Rules of the Provisional Regulations of the PRC Concerning Value Added Tax, value added tax is imposed on goods sold in or imported into the PRC and on processing, repair and replacement services provided within the PRC.

Value added tax payable in The People’s Republic of China is charged on an aggregated basis at a rate of 13% or 17% (depending on the type of goods involved) on the full price collected for the goods sold or, in the case of taxable services provided, at a rate of 17% on the charges for the taxable services provided, but excluding, in respect of both goods and services, any amount paid in respect of value added tax included in the price or charges, and less any deductible value added tax already paid by the taxpayer on purchases of goods and services in the same financial year.

Comprehensive Income

Total comprehensive income is defined as all changes in shareholders’ equity during a period, other than those resulting from investments by and distributions to shareholders (i.e., issuance of equity securities and dividends). Generally, for the Company, total comprehensive income equals net income plus or minus adjustments for currency translation. Total comprehensive income represents the activity for a period net of related tax and was $13,793,231 and $11,612,716 for the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

While total comprehensive income is the activity in a period and is largely driven by net earnings in that period, accumulated other comprehensive income or loss (“AOCI”) represents the cumulative balance of other comprehensive income as of the balance sheet date. For the Company, AOCI is primarily the cumulative balance related to the currency adjustments and increased overall equity by $1,485,999 and $664,421 as of January 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Earnings per share

Basic net earnings per common stock are computed by dividing net earnings applicable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings per common stock is determined using the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, using the treasury stock method, consisting of shares that might be issued upon exercise of common stock warrants. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Earnings per share, assuming dilution, is based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding adjusted for the effects of common stock that may be issued as a result of the following types of potentially dilutive instruments:

	–	warrants,

	–	employee stock options, and


	–	other equity awards, which include long-term incentive awards.

The FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share,” requires the Company to include additional shares in the computation of earnings per share, assuming dilution. The additional shares included in diluted earnings per share represent the number of shares that would be issued if all of the Company’s outstanding dilutive instruments were converted into common stock.

Diluted earnings per share are based on the assumption that all dilutive options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options are assumed to be exercised at the time of issuance, and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.

Warrants

The Company evaluates its warrants on an ongoing basis considering the accounting guidance of FASB ASC Topic 825, which establishes standards for issuers of financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity related to the classification and measurement of those instruments. The warrants are evaluated considering the accounting guidance of FASB ASC Topic 815, which establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities.

In accordance with accounting guidance FASB ASC Topic 825, the Company accounts for financial instruments as a liability if it embodies an obligation to repurchase the issuer’s equity shares, or is indexed to such an obligation, and that requires or may require the issuer to settle the obligation by transferring assets. Freestanding financial instruments are financial instruments that are entered into separately and apart from any of the entity’s other financial instruments or equity transactions, or that is entered into in conjunction with some other transaction and is legally detachable and separately exercisable. The liability recorded is fair market value per Black-Scholes option model.

On March 25, 2010, we issued warrants to purchase 160,000 shares of our common stock to a certain investor relation service provider. The warrants were recognized at fair value and were recorded as liability.

3. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-02 Receivables (Topic 310): A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. This ASU clarifies which loan modifications constitute troubled debt restructurings. It is intended to assist creditors in determining whether a modification of the terms of a receivable meets the criteria to be considered a troubled debt restructuring, both for purposes of recording an impairment loss and for disclosure of troubled debt restructurings. For public companies, this ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2011, and applies retrospectively to restructurings occurring on or after the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. Early application is permitted. It is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This ASU is the result of joint efforts by the FASB and International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) to develop a single, converged fair value framework — that is, converged guidance on how (not when) to measure fair value and on what disclosures to provide about fair value measurements. Thus, there are few differences between this ASU and its international counterpart, IFRS 13. While this ASU is largely consistent with existing fair value measurement principles in U.S. GAAP, it expands Topic 820’s existing disclosure requirements for fair value measurements and makes other amendments. Many of these amendments were made to eliminate unnecessary wording differences between U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. However, some could change how the fair value measurement guidance in Topic 820 is applied. This ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 for public entities. It is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05 Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which revises the manner in which entities present comprehensive income in their financial statements. This ASU removes the presentation options in Topic 220 and requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. This ASU does not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income. For public entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted. This ASU does not require incremental disclosures in addition to those required by Topic 250 or any transition guidance. Because the Company is currently adopted to present comprehensive income within the condensed consolidated statements of changes of equity and therefore, it is expected this ASU would change the presentation of comprehensive income in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements upon its adoption. It is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2001-11 Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities: The amendments in this Update will enhance disclosures required by U.S. GAAP by requiring improved information about financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either (1) offset in accordance with either Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45 or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement, irrespective of whether they are offset in accordance with either Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45. This information will enable users of an entity’s financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity’s financial position, including the effect or potential effect of rights of setoff associated with certain financial instruments and derivative instruments in the scope of this Update. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. It is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12 Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): In order to defer only those changes in Update 2011-05 that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments, the paragraphs in this Update supersede certain pending paragraphs in Update 2011-05. The amendments are being made to allow the Board time to redeliberate whether to present on the face of the financial statements the effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the components of net income and other comprehensive income for all periods presented. While the Board is considering the operational concerns about the presentation requirements for reclassification adjustments and the needs of financial statement users for additional information about reclassification adjustments, entities should continue to report 2 reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income consistent with the presentation requirements in effect before Update 2011-05. All other requirements in Update 2011-05 are not affected by this Update, including the requirement to report comprehensive income either in a single continuous financial statement or in two separate but consecutive financial statements. Public entities should apply these requirements for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. Nonpublic entities should begin applying these requirements for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2012, and interim and annual periods thereafter. It is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

4. CONCENTRATIONS OF BUSINESS AND CREDIT RISK

The Company conducts all of its primary trade in the PRC. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully conduct its trade, and failure to do so would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Also, the success of the Company’s operations is subject to numerous contingencies, some of which are beyond management’s control. These contingencies include general economic conditions, price of raw material, competition, governmental and political conditions, and changes in regulations. Because the Company is dependent on foreign trade in the PRC, the Company is subject to various additional political, economic and other uncertainties. Among other risks, the Company’s operations will be subject to risk of restrictions on transfer of funds, domestic and international customs, changing taxation policies, foreign exchange restrictions, and political and governmental regulations.

(1) Cash

The Company maintains certain bank accounts in the PRC which are not protected by FDIC insurance or other insurance. Cash balance held in PRC bank accounts to $21,424,980 and $15,283,583, as of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, respectively. No cash balances were restricted as of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011.

As of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, substantially all of the Company’s cash were held by major financial institutions located in the PRC which management believes are of high credit quality.

(2) Sales and trade receivables

The Company provides credit in the normal course of business and substantially all customers are located in the PRC. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for doubtful accounts based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends, and other information. Prior to deduction of sales rebates, no individual customer accounted for over 10% of total sales during the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The Company’s products are sold throughout the PRC. For three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, botanical anti-depression and nerve-regulation products accounted for 73.0% and 73.4%, respectively, of total sales.

(3) Foreign currency

The Company operates in the PRC, which may give rise to significant foreign currency risks from fluctuations and the degree of volatility of foreign exchange rates between U.S. dollars and the Chinese currency RMB.

(4) Dividends

Payments of dividends may be subject to some restrictions due to the fact that the operating activities are conducted in a subsidiary residing in the PRC.

(5) Price control

The retail prices of certain pharmaceuticals sold in the PRC, primarily those included in the national and provincial Medical Insurance Catalogs are subject to price controls in the form of fixed prices or price ceilings. As such, the retail prices for certain of the Company’s pharmaceutical products can be adjusted downward or upward from time to time. Price controls did not have a material impact on the Company’s operation during the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011.

(6) Cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold is subject to price fluctuations due to various factors beyond the Company’s control, including, among other pertinent factors, inflation and changes in governmental regulations and programs. The Company expects cost of goods sold will continue to fluctuate and be affected by inflation in the future. The Company’s raw materials are purchased from various independent suppliers, and the Company does not rely on any single supplier.

15. EARNINGS PER SHARE

When calculating diluted earnings per share for common stock equivalents, the Earnings per Share, FASB ASC Topic 260, requires the Company to include the potential shares that would be outstanding if all outstanding stock options or warrants were exercised. This is offset by shares the Company could repurchase using the proceeds from these hypothetical exercises to obtain the common stock equivalent.

Share Options				654,845
Share Warrants		-		1,497		-
Diluted EPS income available to common shareholders		10,948,295		37,895,878		0.29

For the three months ended January 31, 2012, warrants of 1,231,428 shares and option of 234,998 shares were excluded from calculation of diluted earnings, because the exercise prices exceeded the average price of the Company’s common stock.

For the three months ended January 31, 2011, option of 70,000 shares were excluded from calculation of diluted earnings, because the exercise prices exceeded the average price of the Company’s common stock.

16. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

The full-time employees of the Company’s subsidiary that is incorporated in the PRC are entitled to staff welfare benefits, including medical care, welfare subsidies, unemployment insurance and pension benefits. The PRC companies are required to accrue for these benefits based on certain percentages of the employees’ salaries in accordance with the relevant regulations, and to make contributions to the state-sponsored pension and medical plans out of the amounts accrued for medical and pension benefits. The total amounts expensed to the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income for such employee benefits amounted to approximately $94,571 and $134,612 for the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

17. ASSETS AND LIABILITIES MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE

On March 25, 2010, the Company issued warrants (the “Warrants”) for 160,000 common shares to an investor relation service provider that have an exercise price of $2.00 per share and a contractual life of 3 years. The terms of the Warrant agreement include the following factors that in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, requires that the Warrants be classified at their fair value to liabilities in each reporting period.

•

The holder of the Warrants (the “Holder”) is entitled to the benefits of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Holder to sell securities of the Company to the public without registration. Noncompliance with such rules and regulations could result in the Company having to settle the Warrant obligation in cash.

•

The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”) are subject to adjustment for standard dilutive events, including the issuance of common stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of common stock, that will adversely affect the Holder’s rights under the Warrants. There were no dilutive events for the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, which would have resulted in an adjustment to the exercise price or number of Warrant Shares.

The Company had no assets measured at fair value at January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011. The Company had the following warrant liability measured at fair value on January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011:

	Fair value measurement
	Quoted prices in active markets of identical assets		Significant other observable inputs		Significant unobservable inputs
		(Level 1)		(Level 2)		(Level 3)
January 31, 2012 Warrants liability		-	$	18,445		-
October 31, 2011 Warrants liability		-	$	23,443		-

The Company used the Black-Scholes valuation model to estimate the fair value of the Warrants. The valuation of warrants liability on January 31, 2012 was based on the assumptions noted in the following table.

Expected volatility	78.87	%
Expected dividends	0	%
Expected term (in years)	1.15 years
Risk-free rate	0.3	%

18. PREFERRED STOCK, COMMON STOCK AND EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

(1) Preferred Stock

The Company’s articles of incorporation provide that our board of directors will be authorized to issue from time to time, without further stockholder approval, up to 1,000,000 additional shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix or alter the designations, preferences, rights and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the shares of each series, including the dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, rights of redemption, including sinking fund provisions, redemption price or prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or designations of any series. Such shares of preferred stock could have preferences over our common stock with respect to dividends and liquidation rights. As of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, there is no preferred stock outstanding.

(2) Common Stock and Equity Transactions

On May 15, 2009, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,142,856 shares of the Company’s common stock and 1,071,428 warrants with an exercise price of $0.875 per share to Allied Merit International Investments, Inc. and Griffin Ventures Ltd. Total consideration of the issuance was $ 1,500,000.

The fair value of the warrants is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model to be $496,732. The valuation was based on the assumptions noted in the following table.

Expected volatility		175.80	%
Expected dividends		0	%
Expected term (in years)	3 years
Risk-free rate		1.375	%

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect for the expected term of the warrants at the time of grant. The dividend yield on our common stock is assumed to be zero since we do not pay dividends and have no current plans to pay them in the future. The market price volatility of our common stock was based on historical volatility since May 15, 2008. Our methodology is consistent with prior period volatility assumptions. The expected life of the warrants is based upon our anticipated expectations of exercise behavior since no options have been exercised in the past to provide relevant historical data.

19. OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

Share-based compensation amounted to $25,739 and $14,400 in the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

(1) 2003 Omnibus Plan

On February 28, 2003, our board of directors approved the Renhuang Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 2003 Omnibus Securities Plan (the “2003 Plan”), which was approved by our shareholders on April 11, 2003. The 2003 Plan offers selected employees, directors, and consultants an opportunity to acquire our common stock, and serves to encourage such persons to remain employed by us and to attract new employees. The 2003 Plan allows for the award of stock and options, up to 25,000 (after giving effect to the 1-for-30 reverse stock split in 2006) shares of our common stock. On May 1, of each year, the number of shares in the 2003 Securities Plan is automatically adjusted to an amount equal to ten percent of our outstanding stock on October 31, of the immediately preceding year. As of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, there were 3,723,954 shares available for issuing subject to the 2003 Omnibus Securities Plan.

a) On December 14, 2010, we appointed Mr. Weiqiu Dong as our chief financial officer. Base on the employment agreement, Mr. Dong received, on December 14, 2010, an option to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock under the 2003 Omnibus Plan. The option vests 60,000 shares on the first anniversary of the date of grant and 70,000 shares on each of the second and third anniversaries of the date of grant. The Option is conditioned upon continued employment on such date, and has a contractual life of 3 years.

The fair value of the option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model to be $259,251, of which $22,902 was recorded as compensation expenses for the three months ended January 31, 2012. The valuation was based on the assumptions noted in the following table.

Expected volatility	96.46	%
Expected dividends	0.00	%
Expected term (in years)	3 years
Risk-free rate	1.06	%

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect for the expected term of the option at the time of grant. The dividend yield on our common stock is assumed to be zero since we do not pay dividends and have no current plans to pay them in the future. The market price volatility of our common stock was based on historical volatility since December 13, 2009. Our methodology is consistent with prior period volatility assumptions. The expected life of the options is based upon our anticipated expectations of exercise behavior since no options have been exercised in the past to provide relevant historical data.

b) On October 15, 2011, we entered into an independent director agreement with Mr. Pan, who became our director on October 15, 2011. The agreement provides that Mr. Pan, the Chair of our Audit Committee, will receive (i) a fee of $2,500 per month, (ii) options to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock under the 2003 Plan, at an exercise price of $0.80 per share, which is equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on October 15, 2011, subject to vesting on a quarterly basis (4,166 shares of option to vest on the first 11 quarter anniversaries of the grant and 4,174 shares of option to vest on the 12th quarter anniversary of the grant with the initial 4,166 shares of option vesting to commence on January 15, 2012), and with all vesting conditional upon continued service as a director of the Company as of each such anniversary; and (iii) a reimbursement of out-of pocket expenses incidental to his services on the Board. The agreement expires on the earlier of (i) the date Mr. Pan ceases to be a member of the board, or (ii) the date of termination of the Agreement.

The fair value of the option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model to be $34,042, of which $2,837 was recorded as compensation expenses for the three months ended January 31, 2012. The valuation was based on the assumptions noted in the following table.

Expected volatility	127.76%
Expected dividends	0.00%
Expected term (in years)	3 years
Risk-free rate	1.12%

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect for the expected term of the option at the time of grant. The dividend yield on our common stock is assumed to be zero since we do not pay dividends and have no current plans to pay them in the future. The market price volatility of our common stock was based on historical volatility since October 14, 2010. Our methodology is consistent with prior period volatility assumptions. The expected life of the options is based upon our anticipated expectations of exercise behavior since no options have been exercised in the past to provide relevant historical data.

(2) 2007 Non-Qualified Company Stock Grant and Option Plan

On March 19, 2007, our board of directors approved the 2007 Non-Qualified Company Stock Grant and Option Plan (the “2007 Plan”). The 2007 Plan is intended to serve as an incentive to and to encourage stock ownership by our directors, officers, and employees, and certain persons rendering service to us, so that such persons may acquire or increase their proprietary interest in our success, and to encourage them to remain in our service. Under the 2007, up to 200,000 shares of our common stock may be subject to options.

On January 13, 2010, an option to purchase 50,000 shares was granted under the 2007 Plan to an employee that vests on the 12-month anniversary of the date of grant, conditioned upon continued employment on such date, and has a contractual life of 3 years. The fair value of the option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model to be $47,527. The valuation was based on the assumptions noted in the following table. The option was forfeited at departure of the employee on August 6, 2010.

Expected volatility		236.50%
Expected dividends		0.00%
Expected term (in years)	3 years
Risk-free rate		1.50%

The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect for the expected term of the option at the time of grant. The dividend yield on our common stock is assumed to be zero since we do not pay dividends and have no current plans to pay them in the future. The market price volatility of our common stock was based on historical volatility since January 13, 2009. Our methodology is consistent with prior period volatility assumptions. The expected life of the options is based upon our anticipated expectations of exercise behavior since no options have been exercised in the past to provide relevant historical data.

20. RESERVES

(1) Statutory reserves

Pursuant to the relevant laws and regulations of the PRC, the Company is required to annually transfer 10% of its after tax profit as reported on condensed consolidated financial statements prepared under the accounting principles of the PRC to a statutory surplus reserve fund until the balance reaches 50% of the registered share capital. This reserve can be used to make up any losses incurred or to increase share capital. Except for reducing losses incurred, any other application may not result in this reserve balance falling below 25% of the registered capital.

(2) Public welfare funds

Prior to January 1, 2007, the Company was required each year to transfer 5% of its after tax profit as reported on condensed consolidated financial statements prepared under the accounting principles of the PRC to the public welfare funds. This reserve was restricted to capital expenditure for employees’ collective welfare facilities that are owned by the Company. The public welfare funds are not available for distribution to the stockholders (except in liquidation). Once capital expenditures for staff welfare facilities have been made, an equivalent amount must be transferred from the public welfare funds to the discretionary common reserve funds. Due to a change in PRC law, appropriation of profit to the public welfare funds is no longer required.

The reserve funds as of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011 were comprised of the following:

	2012		2011
	US$		US$

Statutory surplus reserve		3,090,320		3,090,320
Public welfare fund		282,377		282,377
Total		3,372,697		3,372,697

21. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company has various purchase commitments for materials, supplies and services incident to the ordinary conduct of business, generally for quantities required for the Company’s business and at prevailing market prices. No material annual loss is expected from these commitments and there are no minimum purchase commitments.

The Company and its subsidiaries are self-insured, and they do not carry any property insurance, general liability insurance, or any other insurance that covers the risks of their business operations. As a result any material loss or damage to its properties or other assets, or personal injuries arising from its business operations would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and operations.

The Company is not involved in any legal matters arising in the normal course of business. While incapable of estimation, in the opinion of the management, the individual regulatory and legal matters in which it might involve in the future are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

(1) Operating lease arrangements

We currently have no lease agreement with any company.

(2) Capital commitments

22. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued and has concluded no events need to be reported during this period.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. See also Risk Factors contained in our Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2011.

Overview

We are a high-tech enterprise engaged in the research, development, manufacture, and distribution of botanical products, bio-pharmaceutical products, and traditional Chinese medicines, or TCM, in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”). We have three “Good Manufacturing Practice” or GMP certified production facilities - Ah City Natural and Biopharmaceutical plant, Dongfanghong pharmaceutical plant and Qingyang natural extraction plant - capable of producing 18 dosage forms and over 200 different products. Our products include but are not limited to (i) botanical anti-depression and nerve-regulation products, (ii) biopharmaceutical products, and (iii) botanical antibiotic and traditional over-the-counter (“OTC”) Chinese medicines. Botanical anti-depression and nerve-regulation products account for approximately 70% of our revenues and we intend to strengthen our development in this area. We have entered into sales agency agreements with our sales agents. Through our sales agent, we have sold our products to over 3,000 distributors and over 70 sales centers across 24 provinces in the PRC.

Recent Developments

Siberian Ginseng Polysaccharide Extract Powder. On December 13, 2011, the Company issued a press release to announce that we have successfully developed a new Siberian Ginseng Polysaccharide Extract Powder and was awarded the Scientific and Technological Achievements Appraisal Certificate by the Science and Technology Bureau of Heilongjiang Province. The Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) Polysaccharide Extract Powder is an all-natural substance extracted from the stem of Siberian Ginseng utilizing proprietary extraction technology developed by the China Botanic research team. The Company's Extract Powder technology was developed using its patented process of separating and extracting effective parts of the Siberian Ginseng (the PRC Patent Number: ZL200710301682X), which was granted by the State Intellectual Property Office of the People's Republic of China in December 2010. According to pharmacological research, Siberian Ginseng Extract Powder contains strong immunogenic and antitumor properties with minimal side effects. Our management estimates a significant market potential for Extract Powder based products, such as Siberian Ginseng Polysaccharide Extract Powder tablets and capsules.

Ah City Phase Two project. We have finished the architectural design of Ah City Phase Two project and are in the process of obtaining approval from relevant government authorities. We expect to finish all the procedures by April 2012 and will start the construction once we receive approval documents. As of January 31, 2012, we have incurred a total of $1,964,277 of construction-in-progress. The Ah City Phase Two project is expected to be completed in the year of 2013.

Tax Treatment of Subsidiary

As a recipient of the PRC’s State High-Tech Enterprise certificate, Harbin Renhuang Pharmaceutical Co. LTD (“CBP China”) is eligible for a number of national and local government support programs, including preferential tax treatment. In order to receive these benefits CBP China must, on an annual basis, pass a High-Tech Enterprise assessment. CBP China passed this assessment in February 2012 and, as a result, pays a reduced enterprise income tax rate of 15% in the year of 2012 compared with statutory enterprise income tax rate of 25%.

Critical Accounting Policies

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and our subsidiaries. All transactions and balances among us and our subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Accounting Judgments and Estimates

Certain amounts included in or affecting our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures must be estimated, requiring us to make certain assumptions with respect to values or conditions that cannot be known with certainty at the time the condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts we report for assets and liabilities and our disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our condensed consolidated financial statements. We routinely evaluate these estimates, utilizing historical experience, consulting with experts and other methods we consider reasonable in the particular circumstances. Nevertheless, actual results may differ significantly from our estimates. Any effects on our business, financial position or results of operations resulting from revisions to these estimates are recorded in the period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become known.

We believe that certain accounting policies are of more significance in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statement preparation process than others, which policies are discussed below. See also Note 2 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for a summary of our significant accounting policies.

Estimates of allowances for bad debts – We must periodically review our trade and other receivables to determine if all are collectible or whether an allowance is required for possible uncollectible balances.

Estimate of the useful lives of property and equipment – We must estimate the useful lives and proper salvage values of our property and equipment. We must also review property and equipment for possible impairment.

Estimate of the useful lives of intangible assets – We must estimate the useful lives of our intangible assets. We must also review intangible assets for possible impairment.

Inventory – We must determine whether we have any obsolete or impaired inventory.

Revenue recognition – Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized on the transfer of risks and rewards of ownership, which generally coincides with the time when the goods are shipped to customers and the title has passed.

Please refer to the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this filing for a more complete listing of all of our significant accounting policies.

Factors Affecting our Results of Operations

Our operating results are primarily affected by the following factors:

Pharmaceutical Industry Growth. We believe the market for pharmaceutical products in the PRC is growing rapidly driven by the PRC’s economic growth, increased pharmaceutical expenditure, an aging population, increased lifestyle-related diseases, government support of the pharmaceutical industry, as well as the increased availability of funding for medical insurance in the PRC. In particular, in January 2009, the PRC’s State Council passed a far-reaching medical reform plan (“Health Reform”) to help provide universal primary medical insurance coverage and increased access to medical facilities to a greater majority of its citizens. Both the central government of the PRC and provincial governments has published Lists of Essential Medicines to regulate the market. We expect these factors to continue to drive industry growth.

Pricing of Our Products. Seven of our products, which accounted for 28.4% of our total revenues before sales rebate in the three months ended January 31, 2012, are listed on the National or Provincial List of Essential Medicines published by the Chinese government, and therefore subject to government pricing limits. We do not believe pricing controls will influence our sales significantly and expect that the health care reform will help increase our sales.

Production Capacity. We believe much of the pharmaceutical market in the PRC is still underserved, particularly with respect to treatment of depression, melancholy and nerve regulation. The demand for our products that treat depression, melancholy and regulate nerves, continuously increased and we were able to increase our production of such products to capture much of this growth. We believe our current facilities with the ability to manufacture 18 dosage forms and over 200 products could not meet our future demand and we are building our Ah City Phase Two project, Depth Development and Industrialization of Siberian Ginseng, to produce more advanced Siberian Ginseng products and to allow us to capture future market growth and increase our revenue and market share accordingly.

Perceptions of Product Quality. We believe that rising health concerns in the PRC have contributed to a greater demand for health-care products with perceived health benefits. We believe many consumers in the PRC tend to prefer natural health care products with, we believe, limited side effects. Accordingly, we believe our reputation for quality and leadership position in a number of our products allow our products to command a higher average selling price and generate higher gross margins than our competitors.

Raw Material Supply and Prices. The per unit costs of producing our products are subject to the supply and price volatility of raw materials, which are affected by various market factors such as market demands, fluctuations in production and competition.

Expenses Associated with Research and Development. In order to enhance our existing products and develop new products for the market, we have devoted significant resources to research and development.

Expenses Associated with Sales and Marketing. In order to promote our product brand and gain greater market awareness, we have devoted significant resources to sales and marketing, in particular advertising activities.

Demand for Our Products. We expect the market demand for our botanic anti-depression and nerve-regulation products will increase along with the growth of the general market for such products.

Comparison of Three Months Ended January 31, 2012 and 2011

Total Comprehensive Income

Total comprehensive income increased by approximately $2.18 million, or 18.8%, from approximately $11.61 million for the three months ended January 31, 2011 to approximately $13.79 million for the three months ended January 31, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $5.52 million, or 24.4%, in net sales, and an increase of approximately $2.01 million, or 22.8%, in cost of goods sold and an increase of approximately $0.26 million, or 19.7%, in sales and marketing expenses, an increase of approximately $0.39 million, or 58.6%, in general and administration expenses, an increase of approximately $56 thousand, or 30.9%, in research and development expenses, and an increase of $0.82 million, or 123.7%, in cumulative currency translation adjustments. Our gross profit margin increased from 61.1% for the three months ended January 31, 2011 to 61.6% for the three months ended January 31, 2012.

Sales

Our sales consist primarily of revenues generated from sales of botanical anti-depression and nerve regulation products, biopharmaceutical products and botanical antibiotics and traditional OTC Chinese medicines. Sales increased by approximately $5.52 million, or 24.4%, from approximately $22.63 million in three months ended January 31, 2011 to approximately $28.14 million in three months ended January 31, 2012. This increase in sales was primarily attributable to strong market acceptance of our Siberian Ginseng Series products and the contributions from Ginseng and Venison Extract (launched in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010) and Badger Oil (launched in the first quarter of fiscal year 2011) as a result of our marketing efforts, in addition to the price increase of our overall products in January 2011.

We provide incentive sales rebates to our sales agents. The rebate rate, which is based on a product basis, averaged of 8.5% and 13.3% of total sales for the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Sales rebates are netted against total sales. The following table sets forth information regarding the net sales of our principal products before sales rebate during the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011:

While we had increased sales, we experienced a decrease in the sales of a number of our products mainly from the following few reasons. First, the average selling price of our products increased 23.4% for the three months ended January 31, 2012 compared with the same period of last year. The market normally needs six months or longer to absorb the impact of price increase. Second, as the PRC government moves forward with the Healthcare Reform, we experienced demanding fluctuation and this situation will continue until the Healthcare Reform is fully in place and the national healthcare system mature. Third, we increased the capacity per package for some of our products, such as Siberian Ginseng Tablets, the tablets per bottle increased from 100 to 400 tablets per bottle. Fourth, we focused our effort to our main products, Siberian Ginseng Series, Ginseng and Venison Extract, Badger Oil and Compound Schizandra Tablets which totally accounted for 75.7% of our total sales for the three months ended January 31, 2012 compared with 65.3% of the same period of last year and have higher gross margin. We have dominated the market of these four products and will continue to put more effort to strengthen our market share.

The PRC government is injecting funds into healthcare insurance system to reimburse full or part of the medical expenses consumed by Chinese citizen. We expect the Healthcare Reform, when fully in place, will greatly improve the affordability of healthcare cost of Chinese people and therefore increase the demand for our products. We have established Medical Reform Sales Department as a dedicated resource focused on capturing this tremendous growth opportunity.

In the third quarter of our fiscal year 2010, we introduced two new products to the market, Qing Re Jie Du Oral Liquid, which is used to cure seasonal flu, and Compound Schisandra Tablets, also known as magnolia vine, has been clinically proven to have significant benefits to the functioning and regulation of the central nervous system. In the last quarter of our fiscal year 2010, we introduced Ginseng and Venison Extract product to the market which nourishes the blood and kidney, restores the body's energy and increase endurance and has been in great demand since we launched the product. In the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011, we introduced Badger Oil which treats burns and scalds and attracted great attention from many patients.

The increase in average sales price per pack, as reflected in the table, is primarily attributable to the increase in the sales price of individual products, namely Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) Series, Tianma Series, QingReJiedu Oral Liquid, Ginseng and Venison Extract and Badger Oil as demonstrated in the following table, which reflects the average sales price per pack by product for the three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011 and the percentage changes in the sales price per pack.

	Average Price Per Pack
Product	Three Months Ended January 31, 2012		Three Months Ended January 31, 2011		Percentage Change
Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) Series	$	131.2	$	108.3		21.1	%
Tianma Series		119.9		96.0		24.9	%
Compound Yangjiao Tablets		122.2		108.0		13.1	%
Shengmai Granules		48.0		45.4		5.7	%
Balangen Granules		43.4		38.3		13.3	%
Compound Honeysuckle Granules		74.1		67.5		9.8	%
QingReJieDu Oral Liquid		40.5		33.1		22.4	%
Compound Schizandra Tablets		98.8		96.4		2.5	%
Ginseng and Venison Extract		136.9		112.6		21.6	%
Badger Oil		282.0		232.7		21.2	%
Total	$	115.6	$	93.7		23.4	%

We expect the demand for our products will increase as we continue to garner greater market acceptance, in particular the benefits of our Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) Series in treating depression and nerve-regulation. Further, we see signs of increased demand for our newly launched product, Ginseng and Venison Extract which accounted for 12.5% of our total sales revenue in the first quarter of fiscal year 2012. We believe that we will have a continuous and stable sales increase in these products for fiscal year 2012. In addition, we anticipate that we will be successful in becoming one of the PRC’s essential medicine suppliers as the PRC government moves forward with its Health Reforms in 2012.

Cost of Goods Sold

Our costs of goods sold consist primarily of direct and indirect manufacturing costs, including production overhead costs, and handling costs for the products sold. Costs of goods sold increased approximately $2.01 million, or 22.8%, from approximately $8.81 million for the three months ended January 31, 2011 to approximately $10.82 million for the three months ended January 31, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to the increase in Siberian Ginseng Series and Ginseng and Venison Extract products sold and increases in raw material prices as a result of inflation.

Although we anticipate that the cost of goods will increase due to inflationary price increases, we do not believe that such increases will be material for fiscal year 2012. We anticipate that beyond 2012, our price for raw materials and other production costs will continue to increase due to inflation. If our costs of goods increase, this may have a negative effect on our net income because due to market conditions and competitive conditions, we may not be able to increase the price for our products in proportion to the increase in costs of goods sold.

Operating and Administrative Expenses

Our total operating expenses consist primarily of sales and marketing expenses, general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses. Our total operating expenses increased by approximately $0.70 million, or 32.5%, from approximately $2.17 million for the three months ended January 31, 2011 to approximately $2.87 million for the three months ended January 31, 2012.

Sales and Marketing. Our sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of advertising and market promotion expenses, and other overhead expenses incurred by the Company’s sales and marketing personnel. Sales and marketing expenses increased approximately $0.26 million, or 19.7%, from approximately $1.33 million for the three months ended January 31, 2011 to approximately $1.59 million for the three months ended January 31, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $0.28 million, or 22.4%, in advertising expenses as the Company intensified TV advertisements in Heilongjiang province for our botanic anti-depression series. Sales and marketing expenses are likely to increase as we continue expanding our distribution network throughout the PRC and seek to increase our market share and awareness of our products.

General and Administrative. Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salary, travel, entertainment expenses, rental, benefits, share-based compensation, and professional service fees. General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $0.39 million, or 58.6%, from approximately $0.66 million for the three months ended January 31, 2011 to approximately $1.05 million for the three months ended January 31, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $0.18 million in other service fees, an increase of approximately $0.15 million in amortization expenses and an increase of $0.11 million in consultation expenses. General and administrative expenses are likely to increase as we continue to expand our production, sourcing capacity, and distribution capacity throughout the PRC.

Research and Development. Our research and development expenses consist primarily of salary, equipment rental expenses, and Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) cultivation related expenses. Research and development expenses increased approximately $56 thousand, or 30.9%, from approximately $0.18 million for the three months ended January 31, 2011 to approximately $0.24 million for the three months ended January 31, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to development of Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) cultivation and extraction of effective components of the Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) plant, and development of other products, and research in cultivation techniques for Siberian Ginseng. Research and development expenses are likely to increase as we continue to devote our resources to development of new products and enhancement of our existing products.

Income before income tax expenses

As a result of the foregoing, our income before income tax expenses increased by approximately $2.81 million, or 24.1%, from approximately $11.67 million for the three months ended January 31, 2011 to approximately $14.48 million for the three months ended January 31, 2012.

Income Tax Expenses

We are subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. Our subsidiary registered in the PRC is subject to enterprise income taxes. For the calendar years of 2012 and 2011, CBP China was granted a 10% tax exemption, and pays enterprise income taxes of 15%.

Cumulative Currency Translation Adjustments

Our principal country of operations is the PRC and our functional currency is the Renminbi, but our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. All translation adjustments resulting from the translation of our financial statements into U.S. dollars are reported as cumulative currency translation adjustments. Our cumulative currency translation adjustments increased by approximately $0.82 million, from approximately $0.66 million for the three months ended January 31, 2011 to approximately $1.49 million for the three months ended January 31, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had retained earnings of approximately $91.68 million and $79.38 million as of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, respectively. As of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, we had cash of approximately $21.42 million and $15.28 million, respectively, total current assets of approximately $70.59 million and $51.07 million, respectively. As of January 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011, we had a working capital surplus of approximately $56.93 million and $40.84 million, respectively. With the anticipated income from 2012, we believe our cash are adequate to satisfy our working capital needs and sustain our ongoing operations for the next twelve months.

Our summary of cash flow information is as follows:

	Three months ended January 31
Net cash provided by (used in):	2012		2011

Operating activities	$	3,358,465	$	1,300,790
Investing activities	$	2,526,967	$	(16,920,767	)

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities increased approximately $2.06 million, from net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $1.30 million for the three months ended January 31, 2011 to net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $3.36 million for the three months ended January 31, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in net income of approximately $1.36 million, an increase in the trade receivables of approximately $4.59 million as a result of increased sales, an increase in inventories of approximately $4.10 million, and decrease in other receivables of approximately $6.97 million and an increase in tax payable of approximately $1.93 million.

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities increased approximately $19.45 million, from approximately $16.92 million used during the three months ended January 31, 2011 to approximately $2.53 million provided during the three months ended January 31, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to the payments made to purchase land use right, exclusive using right of undergrowth resources and construction-in-progress in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2011 and no cash used in investing activities in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2012.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

We did not have any financing activities during three months ended January 31, 2012 and 2011.

Trade Receivables

The net trade receivables increased approximately $11.04 million from approximately $21.55 million on October 31, 2011 to approximately $32.59 million on January 31, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to the result of our sales increase in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2012.

Inventory

Inventory amounts increased approximately $9.00 million from approximately $7.42 million on October 31, 2011 to approximately $16.42 million on January 31, 2012. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $7.44 million in raw materials from approximately $0.95 million on October 31, 2011 to $8.39 million on January 31, 2012, an increase of $3.05 million in packaging materials from $1.89 million on October 31, 2011 to $4.94 million on January 31, 2012 and a decrease of $1.79 million in work-in-progress from $3.21 million on October 31, 2011 to $1.42 million on January 31, 2012.

Outstanding Long-Term Indebtedness

None

Expansion Strategy

We believe the market for pharmaceutical products in the PRC is growing. Our growth strategy involves capturing as much of this market as possible during this growth phase. To implement this strategy we plan to strengthen our dominant position in the Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) market, expand our Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax) cultivating bases and improving the quality standards of Siberian Ginseng (Acanthopanax), and extend our distribution network through internal distribution channels reforms. Our expansion strategy will require the continued retention and investment of our earnings from operations and, we believe, additional funding from private debt and equity financing. In general, the commitment of funds to research and development, or acquisition or construction of plant and equipment tends to impair liquidity. However, we believe that because of the upward trend in our revenues in recent years, even if this trend levels off, our income from continuing operations coupled with such additional financing, if required, should provide sufficient liquidity to meet our expansion needs.

Contractual Obligations

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of January 31, 2012, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act”).

Based on the management's assessment and review of our financial statements and results for the three months ended January 31, 2012, we have not established effective internal controls.

Changes in Internal Controls

Since the third quarter of our 2009 fiscal year, we have begun the implementation of remedial measures including hiring of a new chief financial officer in January 2010 (who resigned on August 3, 2010 for personal reason and was replaced by an interim chief financial officer. On December 14, 2010, we subsequently hired Mr. Weiqiu Dong as our new chief financial officer), adding additional staff, appointing three independent Directors to our board of directors, engaging consultants to advise management on the preparation of Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404 compliance with internal controls over financial reporting for fiscal year 2011, providing relevant training to our staff, implementing more rigorous policies and procedures relating to period-end financial reporting and other key processes, strengthening key controls such as journal-entry approval, reconciliation procedures and maintaining relevant supporting documentation. We expect to continue to implement additional financial and management controls and procedures going forward. As results of these measures and until we have completed the remediation process, there has been and will be changes and further improvement to our internal controls over financial reporting.
