CHINA SXAN BIOTECH INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2009 and 2008
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Organization and Description of Business
China Sxan Biotech, Inc. (the “Company”, formerly Advance Technologies, Inc.), a Nevada corporation, was incorporated on June 16, 1969. On July 10, 2007, the Company acquired the outstanding capital stock of American SXAN Biotech, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“American SXAN”). American SXAN is a holding company
that on Oct 31, 2006 acquired 100% of the stock of Tieli Xiaoxinganling Forest Breeding Co., Ltd. (“Tieli Xiaoxinganling”), a corporation organized under the laws of The People’s Republic of China. Tieli Xiaoxinganling is engaged in the business of manufacturing and marketing wines and tonics derived from domesticated forest frogs.
The Company was organized under the laws of the State of Delaware under the name PWB Industries, Inc.; the articles of incorporation were issued on June 16, 1969. The name was changed to Sun Energy, Inc., which merged with Sto Med, Inc. on February 22, 1996 and changed its name to Sto Med, Inc. and domicile to the State of Nevada. Sto
Med Inc. changed its name to Advance Technologies, Inc. on August 23, 1997. On September 27, 1999 the Company acquired Seacrest Industries of Nevada, also known as Infrared Systems International. On September 4, 2007 the name of the Company was changed to China Sxan Biotech, Inc.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis Of Presentation
The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of its direct wholly-owned subsidiaries and of its indirect proportionate share of subsidiaries owned
by the wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and
the requirements of Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations
and cash flows for the interim periods have been included.
Interim Financial Statements
These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, as not all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting
principles for annual financial statements are presented. The interim financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of computations as the audited financial statements for the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On July 1, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) officially launched the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), which has become the single official source of authoritative nongovernmental
U.S. GAAP, in addition to guidance issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The ASC is designed to simplify U.S. GAAP into a single, topically ordered structure. All guidance contained in the ASC carries an equal level of authority. The ASC is effective for all interim and annual periods ending after September
15, 2009. The Company’s implementation of this guidance effective July 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Note 3 – Going Concern and Management's Plans
The Company has incurred extensive losses from operations and management believes that the Company will continue to incur losses, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. As a result, the Company’s management resolved to temporarily halt operations and formed an exploratory committee to
evaluate the possibility of utilizing the current production lines and inventories toward the manufacture and distribution of other frog related products.
The Company’s management intends to pursue a variety of sources for the funds required for potential capital investments, offering both debt and equity. At the present time, however, no commitment for funds has been received from any source.
Note 4 – Other Receivables
Other receivables represent advances made to third parties for non-operating purposes. They are unsecured and non-interest bearing. Management is of the opinion that the reported amounts will be fully collected and therefore, no allowance is deemed necessary.
Note 5 – Inventory
Inventory at September 30, 2009 and June 30, 2009 consisted of the following:

The Company's office and production sites are located in Tieli City and Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang Province, PRC. The Company leases land per a real estate contract with the government of the People's Republic of China for a period from 2003 through 2057. Per the People's Republic of China's governmental regulations, the Government
owns all land.
The Company has recognized the amounts paid by a shareholder for the acquisition of rights to use land as an intangible asset (“Rights to use land”) and a non-cash capital contribution. The Company is amortizing the asset over a period of fifty (50) years.
Amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 was $23,947 and $23,422, respectively.
Note 9 – Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses
The carrying value of accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these obligations.
Note 10– Due to Stockholders
Loans from stockholders are short-term in nature, unsecured and non-interest bearing.
Note 11 – Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The Company presents earnings per share on a basic and diluted basis. Basic earnings per share have been computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share have been computed by dividing net earnings plus convertible preferred dividends and interest expense (after-tax)
on convertible debt by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding including the dilutive effect of equity securities. The weighted average number of common shares calculated for diluted EPS excludes the potential common stock that would be exercised under the options and warrants granted to officers because the inclusion of the potential shares from these options and warrants would cause an anti-dilutive effect by increasing the net earnings per share. On September 4, 2007, the Company effectuated
a 1 for 51 reverse stock splits of the Company’s common stock.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Outline of Our Business
China SXAN Biotech, Inc. is a holding company. Until July 2007 it was engaged exclusively in the business of developing infrared vision systems for commercial applications. In July 2007 the Company acquired the capital stock of Tieli XiaoXingAnling Forest Frog Breeding Co., Ltd. (“Tieli XiaoXingAnling”), a corporation
organized under the laws of The People’s Republic of China. In connection with that acquisition, the Company transferred all of the assets relating to the infrared vision systems business to a subsidiary named Infrared Systems International. Infrared Systems International has filed a registration statement that, when declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, will permit the Company to distribute the capital stock of Infrared Systems International to its shareholders. Thereafter
the Company will be exclusively engaged in the business carried on by Tieli XiaoXingAnling.
Tieli XiaoXingAnling was organized in 2003 in the City of Tieli, which is in the Heilongjiang Province in northeast China. Tieli XiaoXingAnling is engaged in the business of breeding forest frogs, which are also known as snow frogs or winter frogs, since they are traditionally harvested just prior to their winter hibernation in order
to maximize the frog’s fat content. Tieli XiaoXingAnling has obtained patents from the government of China to produce therapeutic wines and tonics from its forest frogs. Tieli XiaoXingAnling has been marketing its forest frog products since 2004 under the brand “Xiao Xing’an Mountain.”
The desirable portion of the Chinese forest frog, known as “hasma,” is a combination of the frog’s ovaries and surrounding fatty tissues. Throughout Chinese history, hasma has been used to treat respiratory problems such as coughing, hemoptysis (expectoration of blood), and night sweats attributable to tuberculosis. Many
Chinese residents also believe that forest frog hasma improves immune function, aids in the treatment of neurasthenia, and slows aging. Today, however, the forest frog is classified as an endangered species in China. Commercial harvesting of forest frogs in the wild is prohibited by national regulations. To meet the continuing demand for hasma, therefore, a domestic forest frog breeding industry has developed.
Early in the 2009 fiscal year, the Company’s management determined that the Company’s business, as then structured, was not sustainable. Among the factors that led to this conclusion were the increase of grain prices within China which has in turn increased our expenses for feedstock, increasing production costs, raw
material costs, and costs associated with being a public company. As a result, management resolved to temporarily halt operations and formed an exploratory committee to evaluate the possibility of utilizing the current production lines and inventories toward the manufacture and distribution of other frog related products.
Results of Operations
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, we experienced record growth in terms of sales as we recorded $12.58 million in revenue, a 127% increase compared to fiscal year 2007. However, starting in mid-2008, as the management resolved to temporarily halt operations and formed an exploratory committee to evaluate the possibility
of utilizing the current production lines and inventories, the Company did not generate any revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2009.
As production and marketing have been halted, the Company was forced to write-off other receivables and advances to suppliers as bad debts, which resulted in an increase in operating expenses. The Company incurred SG&A expenses of $ 1,472,326 for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, representing an increase of $1,463,139 as compared to the $9,187 SG&A expenses incurred during the same period last year. We
incurred a net loss of $1,472,326 during the quarter ended September 30, 2009 as compared to a net loss of $1,960 during the same period a year earlier. For the three months ended September 30, 2009, we ended up with a cumulative net loss of $1,464,756, as compared to a cumulative net income of $641,073 during the same period last year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since Tieli XiaoXingAnling was organized at the end of 2003, its operations have been funded primarily by capital contributions from its shareholders (who became, in July 2007, the controlling shareholders of China SXAN Biotech). In addition, the shareholders have made short-term, non-interest bearing loans to Tieli XiaoXingAnling
when it needed working capital. However, because the Company has recently incurred sizeable losses, at September 30, 2009 the Company had a working capital deficit of $290,782.
During the three months ended September 30, 2009, the operations of Tieli XiaoXingAnling used $65,000 in cash. The provision for bad debts of $1,197,583 and obsolete inventory of $168,008 largely reduced the negative effect of the net loss on our cash flow.
As we have temporarily halted our operations, we are currently exploring the following possibilities toward the development of the company:
· |
Acquisition of a liquor factory or medical wine factory with the necessary Good Manufacturing Practices (“GMP”) certification from the government. |
· |
Acquisition of a pharmaceutical factory or healthcare products factory with a GMP certification. |
Management intends to pursue a variety of sources for the funds required for those capital investments, offering both debt and equity. At the present time, however, no commitment for funds has been received from any source.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Neither China SXAN Biotech nor Tieli XiaoXingAnling has any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on their financial condition or results of operations.
Risk Factors That May Affect Future Results
You should carefully consider the risks described below before buying our common stock. If any of the risks described below actually occurs, that event could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment.
We have suspended our primary operations due to their lack of profitability. There is no assurance that we will be able to achieve profits in the forest frog industry.
Until 2008, all of our business consisted of the sale of hasma – raw forest frog fatty tissues. During the 2009 fiscal year we suspended those operations, as we realized that they would not be profitable over the long term. We are currently exploring methods of achieving profitable operations
in the forest frog industry. It may occur, however, that we will be unable to formulate a business plan that achieves profitability, in which case we will be forced to liquidate our property and equipment.
Competition could prevent us from achieving a significant market position.
There are currently over 5,000 brands of medicinal tonics being sold in China. The struggle to gain brand recognition is complicated by the lack of government regulation of health claims. In order to achieve substantial market presence, we will have to distinguish our brand from all of the others. In
addition, if we are successful in establishing a strong market for our products, other large, well-capitalized nutraceutical companies could be attracted by our success we achieve, and develop similar products. If a well-capitalized company directed its financial strength toward competition with us, it could achieve economies of scale that might permit it to market its products at lower prices than ours. If this occurred before we had established a significant market awareness of our brand, we might
be unable to compete effectively, and would be unable to achieve profitability.
A recession in China could significantly hinder our growth.
The growing demand for our products has been swelled, in large part, by the recent dramatic improvement in the standard of living in China. The continued growth of our market will depend on continuation of recent improvements in the Chinese economy and the amount of disposable income available to the Chinese population.
If the Chinese economy were to contract and money became tight, individuals will be less able to pay premium prices for the benefits of forest frog hasma. Many financial commentators expect a recession to occur in China in the near future. The occurrence of a recession could significantly hinder our efforts to implement our business plan.
We are subject to the risk of disease and natural disasters.
Our business involves the production of livestock. We have not developed alternative sources for raw materials. If our forest frogs or, to a lesser extent, our pigs, become diseased, we could suffer a significant loss of value. In addition, if our farms are damaged by drought, flood, storm, or the other
woes of farming, we will not be able to meet the demand for our products, and are likely to suffer operating losses. Such events could have both an immediate negative effect on our financial results, as well as a long-term negative effect on our ability to grow our business.
Our business and growth will suffer if we are unable to hire and retain key personnel that are in high demand.
Our future success will depend on our ability to attract and retain highly skilled scientists, geneticists, agricultural manufacturing specialists, and marketing personnel. In general, qualified individuals are in high demand in China, and there are insufficient experienced personnel to fill the demand. In
a specialized scientific field, such as ours, the demand for qualified individuals is even greater. If we are unable to successfully attract or retain the personnel we need to succeed, we will be unable to implement our business plan.
We may have difficulty establishing adequate management and financial controls in China.
The People’s Republic of China has only recently begun to adopt the management and financial reporting concepts and practices that investors in the United States are familiar with. We may have difficulty in hiring and retaining employees in China who have the experience necessary to implement the kind of management
and financial controls that are expected of a United States public company. If we cannot establish such controls, we may experience difficulty in collecting financial data and preparing financial statements, books of account and corporate records and instituting business practices that meet U.S. standards.
Government regulation may hinder our ability to function efficiently.
The national, provincial and local governments in the People's Republic of China are highly bureaucratized. The day-to-day operations of our business require frequent interaction with representatives of the Chinese government institutions. The effort to obtain the registrations, licenses and permits necessary
to carry out our business activities can be daunting. Significant delays can result from the need to obtain governmental approval of our activities. These delays can have an adverse effect on the profitability of our operations. In addition, compliance with regulatory requirements applicable to livestock farming and production may increase the cost of our operations, which would adversely affect our profitability.
Capital outflow policies in China may hamper our ability to pay dividends to shareholders in the United States.
The People’s Republic of China has adopted currency and capital transfer regulations. These regulations require that we comply with complex regulations for the movement of capital. Although Chinese governmental policies were introduced in 1996 to allow the convertibility of RMB into foreign currency for current
account items, conversion of RMB into foreign exchange for capital items, such as foreign direct investment, loans or securities, requires the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange. We may be unable to obtain all of the required conversion approvals for our operations, and Chinese regulatory authorities may impose greater restrictions on the convertibility of the RMB in the future. Because most of our future revenues will be in RMB, any inability to obtain the requisite approvals or any future
restrictions on currency exchanges will limit our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders.
Currency fluctuations may adversely affect our operating results.
Tieli XiaoXingAnling generates revenues and incurs expenses and liabilities in Renminbi, the currency of the People’s Republic of China. However, as a subsidiary of China SXAN Biotech, Inc., it will report its financial results in the United States in U.S. Dollars. As a result, our financial results
will be subject to the effects of exchange rate fluctuations between these currencies. From time to time, the government of China may take action to stimulate the Chinese economy that will have the effect of reducing the value of Renminbi. In addition, international currency markets may cause significant adjustments to occur in the value of the Renminbi. Any such events that result in a devaluation of the Renminbi versus the U.S. Dollar will have an adverse effect on our reported results. We
have not entered into agreements or purchased instruments to hedge our exchange rate risks.
We have limited business insurance coverage.
The insurance industry in China is still at an early stage of development. Insurance companies in China offer limited business insurance products, and do not, to our knowledge, offer business liability insurance. As a result, we do not have any business liability insurance coverage for our operations. Moreover, while
business disruption insurance is available, we have determined that the risks of disruption and cost of the insurance are such that we do not require it at this time. Any business disruption, litigation or natural disaster might result in substantial costs and diversion of resources.
