NEW
DRAGON ASIA CORP. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
New
Dragon Asia Corp., a corporation incorporated in the State of Florida
(collectively with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), is
principally engaged in the milling, sale and distribution of flour and related
products, including instant noodles and soybean-derived products, to retail and
wholesale customers throughout China through its foreign subsidiaries in China.
The Company is headquartered in Shandong Province in the People’s Republic of
China (“PRC” or “China”) and has its eight manufacturing plants in Yantai,
Beijing, Chengdu, and Penglai.
NOTE
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The
consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of New Dragon
Asia Corp. and all of its wholly and majority owned subsidiaries. Intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, “Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities” (formerly Standards of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 167,
“Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R))” requires an investor with a
majority of the variable interests (primary beneficiary) in a variable interest
entity (“VIE”) to consolidate the entity. A VIE is an entity in which the
voting equity investors do not have a controlling financial interest or the
equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance the entity’s activities
without receiving additional subordinated financial support from other parties.
VIEs are required to be consolidated by their primary beneficiaries if they do
not effectively disperse risks among the parties involved. The primary
beneficiary of a VIE is the party that absorbs a majority of the entity’s
expected losses or receives a majority of its expected residual returns.
The Company has completed a review of its investments in both non-marketable and
marketable equity interests as well as other arrangements to determine whether
it is the primarily beneficiary of any VIEs. The review did not identify
any VIEs.
The
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with ASC
Topic 810 in the United States. These Consolidated Financial Statements
for interim periods are unaudited. In the opinion of management, the
consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of
normal, recurring adjustments, necessary for their fair presentation. The
results reported in these Consolidated Financial Statements are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with ASC Topic 810 requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as
of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates
estimates and assumptions related to allowances for doubtful accounts, sales
returns and allowance, and inventory reserves. Although management believes
these estimates and assumptions are adequate and reasonable under the
circumstances, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Contractual
Joint Ventures
A
contractual joint venture is an entity established between the Company and
another joint venture partner, with the rights and obligations of each party
governed by a contract. Currently, the Company has established three contractual
joint ventures with three Chinese partners in China, with percentage of
ownership ranging from 79.64% to 90%. Pursuant to each Chinese joint venture
agreement, each Chinese joint venture partner is entitled to receive a
pre-determined annual fee and is not responsible for any profit or loss,
regardless of the ownership in the contractual joint venture. In view of such
contracted profit sharing arrangement, the three contractual joint ventures are
regarded as 100% owned by the Company for income statement purpose. The
Company’s consolidated financial statements of the contractual joint ventures
and accounts for the portion of the contractual joint ventures not wholly-owned
by the Company as non-controlling interest.
Accounting
for Derivative Instruments
Derivatives
are recorded on the Company’s balance sheet at fair value. These derivatives,
including embedded derivatives in the Company’s Series A and B Redeemable
Convertible Preferred Stock are separately valued and accounted for on the
Company’s balance sheet.
The
Company has determined that the conversion features of its redeemable
convertible preferred stock and warrants to purchase common stock are
derivatives that the Company is required to account for as if they were
free-standing instruments. The Company has also determined that it is required
to designate these derivatives as liabilities in its financial statements. As a
result, the Company reports the value of these embedded derivatives as current
liabilities on its balance sheet and reports changes in the value of these
derivatives as non-operating gains or losses on its statement of operations. The
value of the derivatives is required to be recalculated (and resulting
non-operating gains or losses reflected in the statement of operations and
resulting adjustments to the associated liability amounts reflected on the
balance sheet) on a quarterly basis, and is based on the market value of the
Company’s common stock. Due to the nature of the required calculations and the
large number of shares of the Company’s common stock involved in such
calculations, changes in the Company’s common stock price may result in
significant changes in the value of the derivatives and resulting gains and
losses on the Company’s statement of operations.
The
pricing models the Company uses for determining fair values of its derivatives
are a combination of the Black-Scholes and Binomial Pricing Models. Valuations
derived from this model are subject to ongoing internal and external review. The
model uses market-sourced inputs such as interest rates and option volatilities.
Selection of these inputs involves management’s judgment and may impact net
earnings. The Company has obtained a valuation report from a valuation firm to
support its estimates as of March 25, 2010 and December 25, 2009.
The
consolidated financial statements also reflect additional non-operating gains
and losses related to the classification of and accounting for: (1) the
conversion features of the Series A and B Preferred Stock and associated
warrants, and (2) the amortization associated with the discount recorded with
respect to the Series A and B Preferred Stock as a preferred stock
dividend.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
Company adopted ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure”
(formerly SFAS 157, “Fair Value Measurements”) on January 1, 2008 to
account for and record fair values of financial instruments. This ASC
establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements. The ASC establishes a fair value hierarchy that
prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into
three levels as follows:
Level
1 -
|
quoted
prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical asset or
liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the
measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 1
inputs include active exchange-traded securities and exchange-based
derivatives.
|
|
|
Level
2 -
|
inputs
other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly
observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through
corroboration with observable market data. Financial assets and
liabilities utilizing Level 2 inputs include fixed income securities,
non-exchange-based derivatives, mutual funds, and fair-value
hedges.
|
|
|
Level
3 -
|
unobservable
inputs for the asset or liability only used when there is little, if any,
market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.
Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 3 inputs include
infrequently-traded, non-exchange-based derivatives and commingled
investment funds, and are measured using present value pricing
models.
|
The
Company determines the level in the fair value hierarchy within which each fair
value measurement in its entirety falls, based on the lowest level input that is
significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The
following table presents the embedded derivative, the Company only financial
assets measured and recorded at fair value on the Company’s Consolidated Balance
Sheets on a recurring basis and their level within the fair value hierarchy
during the period ended March 25, 2010 and 2009:

NOTE
3. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In
January 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-2, “Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in
Ownership of a Subsidiary- a Scope Clarification”. ASU 2010-2 addresses
implementation issues related to the changes in ownership provisions in the
Consolidation—Overall Subtopic (Subtopic 810-10) of the FASB ASC, originally
issued as SFAS 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial
Statements”. Subtopic 810-10 establishes the accounting and reporting guidance
for noncontrolling interests and changes in ownership interests of a subsidiary.
An entity is required to deconsolidate a subsidiary when the entity ceases to
have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiary. Upon deconsolidation of
a subsidiary, an entity recognizes a gain or loss on the transaction and
measures any retained investment in the subsidiary at fair value. The gain or
loss includes any gain or loss associated with the difference between the fair
value of the retained investment in the subsidiary and its carrying amount at
the date the subsidiary is deconsolidated. In contrast, an entity is required to
account for a decrease in ownership interest of a subsidiary that does not
result in a change of control of the subsidiary as an equity transaction.
ASU 2010-2 is effective for the Company starting January 3, 2010. The
Company expects the adoption of ASU 2010-2 will not have a material impact on
the Company's results of operations or financial position.
In
January 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-6, “Improving Disclosures about Fair
Measurements". ASU 2010-6 provides amendments to subtopic 820-10 that require
separate disclosure of significant transfers into and out of Level 1 and
Level 2 fair value measurements and the presentation of separate
information regarding purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross
basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements.
Additionally, ASU 2010-6 provides amendments to subtopic 820-10 that clarify
existing disclosures about the level of disaggregation and inputs and valuation
techniques. ASU 2010-6 is effective for financial statements issued for annual
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for Level 3
reconciliation disclosures which are effective for annual periods beginning
after December 15, 2010. The Company expects the adoption of ASU 2010-06
will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or
financial position.
In
February 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-9 “Subsequent Events (Topic 855) Amendments
to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements”. ASU 2010-9 amends
disclosure requirements within Subtopic 855-10. An entity that is an SEC filer
is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been
evaluated. This change alleviates potential conflicts between Subtopic 855-10
and the SEC's requirements. ASU 2010-9 is effective for interim and annual
periods ending after June 15, 2010. The Company expects the adoption of ASU
2010-06 will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations
or financial position.
In March
2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-11 “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) Scope
Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives”. ASU 2010-11 clarifies the
type of embedded credit derivative that is exempt from embedded derivative
bifurcation requirements. Only one form of embedded credit derivative qualifies
for the exemption—one that is related only to the subordination of one financial
instrument to another. As a result, entities that have contracts containing an
embedded credit derivative feature in a form other than such subordination may
need to separately account for the embedded credit derivative feature. The
amendments in this Update are effective for each reporting entity at the
beginning of its first fiscal quarter beginning after June 15, 2010. Early
adoption is permitted at the beginning of each entity’s first fiscal quarter
beginning after issuance of this Update. The Company expects the adoption of ASU
2010-11 will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations
or financial position.
In April
2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-13 “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718)
Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the
Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades”. ASU
2010-13 addresses the classification of a share-based payment award with an
exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which the underlying
equity security trades. Topic 718 is amended to clarify that a share-based
payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in
which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades shall not
be considered to contain a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore,
such an award is not to be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies
as equity classification. The amendments in this Update should be effective for
fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or
after December 15, 2010. The guidance should be applied by recording a
cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings for all
outstanding awards as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the
amendments are initially applied. The Company expects the adoption of ASU
2010-13 will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations
or financial position.

NOTE
5. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The
Company computes earnings per share (“EPS’) in accordance generally accepted
accounting principles. Companies with complex capital structures are
required to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the
income or loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average
common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic
EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common
shares (e.g., convertible securities, options and warrants) as if they had been
converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if
later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e.,
those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded
from the calculation of diluted EPS. Approximately 23,192 dilutive shares on an
“as converted” basis for the Redeemable Convertible Preferred stock for the
three months ended March 25, 2010 were excluded from the calculation of diluted
earnings per share since their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Approximately 31,117 dilutive shares on an “as converted” basis for the
Redeemable Convertible Preferred stock for the three months ended March 25, 2009
were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share since their
effect would have been anti-dilutive.
The
calculation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the three
months ended March 25, 2010 and 2009 is based on the average of the closing
price of the Company’s common stock during such periods applied to warrants and
options using the treasury stock method to determine if they are dilutive. The
Redeemable Convertible Preferred stock is included on an “as converted “basis
when these shares are dilutive.
The
following table is a reconciliation of the weighted average shares used in the
computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods presented
(amounts in thousands, except per share data):

In
connection with the issuance of the Redeemable Convertible Series A Preferred
Stock and Series B Preferred Stock, the Company paid professional fees,
placement agent fees and associated expenses amounting to $1.83 million since
the issuance of the Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stocks. The Company also
identified freestanding financial instruments included in the issuances that
were required to be recorded as liabilities. These included the embedded
conversion feature and warrants included in the Series A & B Preferred Stock
issuances. The Company has evaluated the fair value of these liabilities using
combination of the Black Scholes and Binomial Pricing Models. The summary of
activity in the Series A & B Preferred Stock is as follows:

Embedded
derivatives relate to redeemable convertible preferred stock. We determined that
the conversion features of our redeemable convertible preferred stock and
warrants to purchase our common stock are derivatives that we are required to
account for as freestanding instruments under U.S. GAAP. We have also determined
that we are required to designate these derivatives as liabilities in our
financial statements. As a result, we report the value of these embedded
derivatives as current liabilities on our balance sheet and we report changes in
the value of these derivatives as non-operating gains or losses on our statement
of operations. The value of the derivatives is required to be recalculated (and
resulting non-operating gains or losses reflected in our statement of operations
and resulting adjustments to the associated liability amounts reflected on our
balance sheet) on a quarterly basis, and is based on the market value of our
common stock. Due to the nature of the required calculations and the large
number of shares of our common stock involved in such calculations, changes in
our common stock price may result in significant changes in the value of the
derivatives and resulting gains and losses on our statements of operations. We
were required to report a change of $10 and $120 as gain on the embedded
derivative liability in other income on our statement of operations for the
three months ended March 25, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
The
pricing model we use for determining fair values of our derivatives is a
combination of the Black Scholes and Binomial Pricing Models. Valuations derived
from this model are subject to ongoing internal and external review. The model
uses market-sourced inputs such as interest rates and option volatilities.
Selection of these inputs involves management’s judgment and may impact net
income. The Company has obtained a valuation report from a third-party valuation
firm to support its estimates. The principal assumptions used to value these
complex freestanding financial instruments were as follows:

The
Company considered all of the other minor features of the conversion option
associated with the Company’s Series A and Series B Preferred Stock, including
adjustments for: (i) stock dividends and splits, (ii) the sale of the Company’s
securities, (iii) the subsequent issuance of rights, options, or warrants to
Common shareholders, and (iv) forced conversion and redemption features. We
ultimately determined that these features were insignificant and did not have a
material impact on the concluded values of the Series A and Series B Preferred
Stock.

16. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The
Company measures the cost of services received in exchange for an award of
equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company
used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of the
options at the date of grant.
The
Company issued 2,000,000 Class A Common Shares to the CFO as annual compensation

Loans
from the Company’s major shareholder New Dragon Asia Food Limited are for
working capital, are unsecured and bear no interest, and are payable if
requested, and funds are available. The Company and the major shareholder have
agreed that no repayments will take place in 2010. The joint venture partner’s
amounts are similar to the condition of New Dragon Asia Food Limited loans and
no repayment is expected in 2010.
NOTE
18. TAXATION
The PRC
subsidiaries within the Company are subject to PRC income taxes on an entity
basis on income arising in or derived from the tax jurisdiction in which they
operate. The group companies that are incorporated under the International
Business Companies Act of the British Virgin Islands are exempt from payment of
the British Virgin Islands income tax.
Substantially
all of the Company’s income was generated in the PRC, which is subject to PRC
income taxes at rates ranging from 24% to a statutory rate of 25%. Two of the
PRC subsidiaries of the Company are eligible to be exempt from income taxes for
a two-year period commencing with the year in which their operations are
profitable and then subject to a 50% reduction in income taxes for the next
three years, starting from their first profitable year. Several PRC subsidiaries
receive preferential tax rates in regions in which they operated and are also
entitled to partial tax refunds from those tax bureaus.
New
Dragon Asia Corp. is a Florida corporation with wholly-owned operating
subsidiaries. As a result, the Company is not subject to PRC tax for the
activities at the Florida company level. Costs or expenses incurred at the
Florida company level, such as the stock-based compensation and the amortization
of financing costs and derivative accounting related to Series A Preferred Stock
and Series B Preferred Stock, cannot be used to offset any income derived in the
PRC when measuring the PRC income tax liabilities. As of March 25, 2010 and
December 25, 2009, there were no material deferred tax assets or deferred tax
liabilities. The expenses of the United States company are not recoverable
against future taxable income in the United States or the PRC and meet the
definition of permanent differences for tax accounting purposes. The Company has
never been audited by the taxing authority in the United States or the PRC. The
Company believes that it has filed properly in all required
jurisdictions.

Item
2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations.
In
addition to historical information, the matters discussed in this Form 10-Q
contain forward-looking statements that involve risks or uncertainties.
Generally, the words "believes," "anticipates," "may," "will," "should,"
"expect," "intend," "estimate," "continue," and similar expressions or the
negative thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and
uncertainties, including the matters set forth in this report or other reports
or documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to
time, which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from
those projected. Undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking
statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation
to update these forward-looking statements. Readers should carefully review the
risks described in other documents we file from time to time with the Securities
and Exchange Commission, including the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended December 25, 2009, the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed by the
Company and Current Reports on Form 8-K (including any amendments to such
reports). References in this filing to the “Company”, “Group”, “we”, “us”, and
“our” refer to New Dragon Asia Corp. and its subsidiaries.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Our
discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is
based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements
requires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our
estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we
believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the
basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may
differ from these estimates.
An
accounting policy is considered to be critical if it requires an accounting
estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain
at the time the estimates are made, and if different estimates that reasonably
could have been used, or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably
likely to occur, could materially impact the consolidated financial
statements. We believe the following critical accounting policies
reflect the more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation
of the consolidated financial statements.
Contractual
Joint Ventures
A
contractual joint venture is an entity established between the Company and
another joint venture partner, with the rights and obligations of each party
governed by a contract. Currently, the Company has established three
contractual joint ventures with three Chinese partners in China, with percentage
of ownership ranging from 79.64% to 90%. Pursuant to each Chinese
joint venture agreement, each Chinese joint venture partner is entitled to
receive a pre-determined annual fee and is not responsible for any profit or
loss, regardless of the ownership in the contractual joint
venture. In view of such contracted profit sharing arrangement, the
three contractual joint ventures are regarded as 100% owned by the
Company. Hence, the Company’s consolidated financial statements
include the financial statements of the contractual joint ventures.
Revenue
Recognition
Our
revenues are generated from sales of flour, soybean products and instant
noodles. All of our revenue transactions contain standard business terms and
conditions. We determine the appropriate accounting for these transactions after
considering (1) whether a contract exists; (2) when to recognize revenue on the
deliverables; and (3) whether all elements of the contract have been fulfilled
and delivered. In addition, our revenue recognition policy requires an
assessment as to whether collection is reasonably assured, which inherently
requires us to evaluate the creditworthiness of our customers. Changes in
judgments on these assumptions and estimates could materially impact the timing
or amount of revenue recognition.
Accounting
for Derivative Instruments
Derivatives
are recorded on the Company’s balance sheet at fair value. These derivatives,
including embedded derivatives in the Company’s Series A and B Redeemable
Convertible Preferred Stock are separately valued and accounted for on the
Company’s balance sheet.
The
Company has determined that the conversion features of its redeemable
convertible preferred stock and warrants to purchase common stock are
derivatives that the Company is required to account for as if they were
free-standing instruments. The Company has also determined that it is required
to designate these derivatives as liabilities in its financial statements. As a
result, the Company reports the value of these embedded derivatives as current
liabilities on its balance sheet and reports changes in the value of these
derivatives as non-operating gains or losses on its statement of operations. The
value of the derivatives is required to be recalculated (and resulting
non-operating gains or losses reflected in the statement of operations and
resulting adjustments to the associated liability amounts reflected on the
balance sheet) on a quarterly basis, and is based on the market value of the
Company’s common stock. Due to the nature of the required calculations and the
large number of shares of the Company’s common stock involved in such
calculations, changes in the Company’s common stock price may result in
significant changes in the value of the derivatives and resulting gains and
losses on the Company’s statement of operations.
The
pricing models the Company uses for determining fair values of its derivatives
are a combination of the Black-Scholes and Binomial Pricing Models. Valuations
derived from this model are subject to ongoing internal and external review. The
model uses market-sourced inputs such as interest rates and option volatilities.
Selection of these inputs involves management’s judgment and may impact net
earnings. The Company has obtained a valuation report from a valuation firm to
support its estimates as of March 25, 2010 and December 25, 2009.
The
consolidated financial statements also reflect additional non-operating gains
and losses related to the classification of and accounting for: (1) the
conversion features of the Series A and B Preferred Stock and associated
warrants, and (2) the amortization associated with the discount recorded with
respect to the Series A and B Preferred Stock as a preferred stock
dividend.
Share-Based
Payment
On
December 16, 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 123R, “Share-Based Payment,” (now
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock
Compensation”) which replaces SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation” and supercedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees.” ASC 718 requires all share-based payments to employees,
including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial
statements based on the grant date fair value of the award. Under ASC 718, we
must determine the appropriate fair value model to be used for valuing
share-based payments, the amortization method for compensation cost and the
transition method to be used at date of adoption. The transition methods include
prospective and retroactive adoption options. Under the retroactive options,
prior periods may be restated either as of the beginning of the year of adoption
or for all periods presented. The prospective method requires that compensation
expense be recorded for all unvested stock options and restricted stock at the
beginning of the first quarter of adoption of ASC 718, while the retroactive
methods would record compensation expense for all unvested stock options and
restricted stock beginning with the first period restated. We have adopted the
requirements of ASC 718 for the fiscal year beginning on December 26, 2005, and
recorded the compensation expense for all unvested stock options.
Allowance
for Doubtful Accounts
Management
provides for an allowance for doubtful accounts for those third party trade
accounts that are not collected within one year. We base our estimate (one year)
on historical experience and on continuous monitoring of customers’ credit and
settlement. We believe we have reasonable basis for making judgments on the
allowance for doubtful accounts.
We
normally grant up to 90 days credit to our customers. We monitor our allowance
for doubtful accounts on a monthly basis.
Inventories
Valuation
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a weighted average basis, or net
realizable value. Costs of work-in-progress and finished goods are composed of
direct material, direct labor and an attributable portion of manufacturing
overhead. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price, in the ordinary
course of business, less estimated costs to complete and dispose.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
January 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-2, “Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in
Ownership of a Subsidiary- a Scope Clarification”. ASU 2010-2 addresses
implementation issues related to the changes in ownership provisions in the
Consolidation—Overall Subtopic (Subtopic 810-10) of the FASB ASC, originally
issued as SFAS 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial
Statements”. Subtopic 810-10 establishes the accounting and reporting guidance
for noncontrolling interests and changes in ownership interests of a subsidiary.
An entity is required to deconsolidate a subsidiary when the entity ceases to
have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiary. Upon deconsolidation of
a subsidiary, an entity recognizes a gain or loss on the transaction and
measures any retained investment in the subsidiary at fair value. The gain or
loss includes any gain or loss associated with the difference between the fair
value of the retained investment in the subsidiary and its carrying amount at
the date the subsidiary is deconsolidated. In contrast, an entity is required to
account for a decrease in ownership interest of a subsidiary that does not
result in a change of control of the subsidiary as an equity transaction.
ASU 2010-2 is effective for the Company starting January 3, 2010. The
Company expects the adoption of ASU 2010-2 will not have a material impact on
the Company's results of operations or financial position.
In
January 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-6, “Improving Disclosures about Fair
Measurements". ASU 2010-6 provides amendments to subtopic 820-10 that require
separate disclosure of significant transfers into and out of Level 1 and
Level 2 fair value measurements and the presentation of separate
information regarding purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross
basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements.
Additionally, ASU 2010-6 provides amendments to subtopic 820-10 that clarify
existing disclosures about the level of disaggregation and inputs and valuation
techniques. ASU 2010-6 is effective for financial statements issued for annual
reporting periods after beginning after December 15, 2009, except for Level 3
reconciliation disclosures which are effective for annual periods beginning
December 15, 2010. The Company expects the adoption of ASU 2010-06 will not
have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial
position.
In
February 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-9 “Subsequent Events (Topic 855) Amendments
to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements”. ASU 2010-9 amends
disclosure requirements within Subtopic 855-10. An entity that is an SEC filer
is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been
evaluated. This change alleviates potential conflicts between Subtopic 855-10
and the SEC's requirements. ASU 2010-9 is effective for interim and annual
periods ending after June 15, 2010. The Company expects the adoption of ASU
2010-06 will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations
or financial position.
In March
2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-11 “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) Scope
Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives”. ASU 2010-11 clarifies the
type of embedded credit derivative that is exempt from embedded derivative
bifurcation requirements. Only one form of embedded credit derivative qualifies
for the exemption—one that is related only to the subordination of one financial
instrument to another. As a result, entities that have contracts containing an
embedded credit derivative feature in a form other than such subordination may
need to separately account for the embedded credit derivative feature. The
amendments in this Update are effective for each reporting entity at the
beginning of its first fiscal quarter beginning after June 15, 2010. Early
adoption is permitted at the beginning of each entity’s first fiscal quarter
beginning after issuance of this Update. The Company expects the adoption of ASU
2010-11 will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations
or financial position.
In April
2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-13 “Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718)
Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the
Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades”. ASU
2010-13 addresses the classification of a share-based payment award with an
exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which the underlying
equity security trades. Topic 718 is amended to clarify that a share-based
payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in
which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades shall not
be considered to contain a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore,
such an award is not to be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies
as equity classification. The amendments in this Update should be effective for
fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or
after December 15, 2010. The guidance should be applied by recording a
cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings for all
outstanding awards as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the
amendments are initially applied. The Company expects the adoption of ASU
2010-13 will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations
or financial position.
Overview
Headquartered
in Shandong Province, PRC, we are engaged in the milling, sale, and distribution
of flour and related products, including instant noodles and soybean-derived
products, to retail and wholesale customers throughout China. We market our
products with our brand name called “LONG FENG” through a countrywide network of
distributors. We have eight manufacturing plants in the PRC with an aggregate
annual production capacity of approximately 110,000 tons of flour and
approximately 1.1 billion packets of instant noodles and 4,500 tons of soybean
powder.
Operations
We
produce and market a broad range of wheat flour for use in bread, dumplings,
noodles, and confectionary products. Our flour products are marketed under the
“Long Feng” brand name and sold throughout China at both wholesale and retail
levels.
We
provide a wide range of instant noodle products to our customers. Our products
can be separated into two broad categories for selling and marketing purposes:
(i) packet noodles for home preparation and (ii) snacks and cup noodles for
outdoor convenience.
We
produce two types of soybean products - soybean protein powder and soybean
powder. They are principally supplied to food and beverage
producers.
We
believe that we have a reputation in China for producing some of the highest
quality food products. We believe our production plants operate at a high level
of hygiene and efficiency and all of our plants are certified under the ISO9002
standards. We also use strict quality control systems, resulting in what we
believe to be a favorable customer perception of the “Long Feng”
brand.
Our
products are marketed and distributed throughout China by our distributors. Our
sales and marketing strategy focuses on maintaining strong distribution
relationships by holding annual sales order meetings, regular distributor
conferences and an excellent quality/price dynamic.
We
believe our distribution system is the key to our continued success in
developing the “Long Feng” brand as one of the famous domestic brands in China.
Most of our distributors have long-term relationships with us.
Our
primary domestic customer base for both our flour products and instant noodles
consists of small retail stores in the rural areas throughout China where we
believe that our brand has long been recognized as the highest quality available
for the price. The rural market is rapidly growing, benefiting from increases in
rural consumer income. We believe that brand loyalty by our customers is very
strong in this sector. In addition to the small retail sector, we sell to larger
supermarkets located in urban areas.
In
addition to domestic sales, we also export noodles to other countries such as
South Korea, Australia, Malaysia and Indonesia. We also obtained
HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) certification from CCIC
Conformity Assessment Services Co. Ltd., a Chinese quality assurance examination
authority, enabling the Company to begin exports of instant noodles and soybean
powder to Europe. In early 2008, we began exporting noodles to Nigeria,
Africa.
Strategy
Our
strategy for growth is to capitalize on our strong brand name and pursue
strategic partnerships and acquisitions that will enhance our sales. The
following are some of the key elements of our business growth
strategy:
-
|
Acquire
additional locations to increase our production
capacity
|
-
|
Build
strategic alliances with multinational food groups to enhance product
range and capitalize on our China distribution
network
|
Plans for
expansion of the existing plants are expected to be funded through current
working capital from ongoing sales. Acquisitions of plants will require an
additional infusion of funds in the form of debt or equity, or a combination of
both. However, there can be no assurance these funds will be
available.
Competition
The flour
industry in the PRC is very competitive. Our largest competitors are Shandong
Guang Rao Ban Qiu Flour and Hebei Wu De Li Flour in the Northern market and
Shenzhen Nanshun Flour in the Southern market.
The
instant noodle segment in the PRC is also highly competitive. We compete against
well-established foreign companies and many smaller companies. Our largest
competitors are the “Master Kang” brand manufactured by Tingyi (Cayman Island)
Holdings Corporation and the “President” brand manufactured by Uni-President
Group, both based in Taiwan. Both are focused predominately in the more
developed and competitive urban markets. We do not face substantial competition
in the “high-quality” soybean powder market.
Employees
We employ
approximately 1,500 employees. All of them are located in the eight plants. We
have maintained good relationships with our employees and no major disputes have
occurred since our inception.
Currency
Conversion and Exchange
Although
the Chinese government regulations now allow convertibility of Renminbi (“RMB”)
for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain. Hence,
such translations should not be construed as representations that RMB could be
converted into U.S. dollars at that rate or any other rate.
Substantially
all our revenue and expenses are denominated in RMB. Our RMB cash inflows are
sufficient to service our RMB expenditures. For financial reporting purposes, we
use U.S. dollars. The value of RMB against U.S. dollars and other currencies may
fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political
and economic conditions. Any significant revaluation of RMB may materially
affect our financial condition in terms of U.S. dollar reporting. To date, we
have not engaged in any currency hedging transactions in connection with our
operations.

Three
Months Ended March 25, 2010 Compared to Three Months Ended March 25,
2009
Net
Revenue
Net
revenue for the quarter ended March 25, 2010 was $6,046,000, representing an
increase of $2,083,000, or 53%, from $3,963,000 for the quarter ended March 25,
2009.
Revenues
increased in flour and soybean segments by over 60% as the global economy is
began to recover and the demand for our products is gradually strengthening.
However, the average selling price of our instant noodles was still lower in
2010 compared to 2009, which significantly affected our revenue.
Cost
of goods sold
For the
three months ended March 25, 2010, cost of goods sold was $6,023,000, an
increase of $505,000, or 9%, as compared to $5,518,000 for the three months
ended March 25, 2009. The increase was due to the increase in sales of our
products.
For the
three months ended March 25, 2010, as a percentage of revenue, cost of goods
sold decreased to 99% as compared to 139% for that of the same period of prior
year. For the three months ended March 25, 2010, gross margin was 1% as compared
to a negative gross margin of 39% for the same period of prior
year. The improvement in gross margin was mainly attributable to the
increase sales volumes in flour and soybean segments.
Selling
and Distribution Expenses
Selling
and distribution expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions and
associated employee benefits, travel expenses of sales and marketing personnel
and promotional expenses.
Selling
and distribution expenses were $177,000 for the quarter ended March 25, 2010,
representing a decrease of $42,000 or 19% from $219,000 for the corresponding
quarter of 2009. The decrease was primarily due to the cost controls implemented
by us.
As a
percentage of net revenue, selling and distribution expenses decreased to 3% for
the quarter ended March 25, 2010 as compared to 6% for the corresponding period
in 2009. The decrease was primarily due to the cost controls implemented by
us.
General
and Administrative Expenses
General
and administrative expenses increased by $926,000, or 79%, to $2,092,000 for the
quarter ended March 25, 2010 as compared to $1,166,000 for the corresponding
quarter in 2009. The increase was primarily due to the provision for bad debt
due from customers who were seriously affected by the abrupt slowdown in the
economy worldwide.
Gain
on Fair Value Adjustments to Embedded Derivatives
The
Company issued Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock in July 2005,
together with 3,157,895 warrants to purchase Class A Common Stock resulting in
aggregate proceeds of $6 million. The Company also issued Series B Redeemable
Convertible Preferred Stock in December 2005, together with 2,968,750 warrants
to purchase Class A Common Stock resulting in aggregate proceeds of $9.5
million. The fair value of each instrument was recorded as a derivative
liability on our balance sheet. The corresponding gain or loss, which was
non-cash in nature, from changes in the fair values of these instruments was
recorded in our statement of income. For the quarter ended March 25,
2010, the gain in this regard was $10,000. For the corresponding period of 2009,
the gain in this regard was $120,000. The determination of the change in the
value of the derivatives requires the use of a complex valuation model and can
fluctuate significantly between periods based on changes in the price of our
shares and the time remaining in the life of the underlying financial
instruments. Increase in our stock’s market value increases the value of the
derivative creating losses in our income statements and decrease in the stock’s
market value reduces the value of the derivatives creating gains in our income
statements.
Net
Loss Attributable to Controlling Interests
Net loss
attributable to controlling interest was $2,571,000 for the quarter ended March
25, 2010 as compared to net loss attributable to controlling interest of
$2,494,000 for the quarter ended March 25, 2009. Such increase was primarily due
to (i) the provision for bad debt due from customers, and (ii) the write-off of
some unserviceable equipment for the three months ended March 25, 2010 compared
with income tax benefit for the three months ended March 25,
2009.
Financial
Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
The
Company’s primary liquidity needs are for the purchase of inventories and
funding accounts receivable and capital expenditures. Historically, the Company
has financed its working capital requirements through a combination of
internally generated cash and advances from related companies.
Our
working capital decreased by $1,667,000 to $28,176,000 at March 25, 2010 as
compared to $29,843,000 at December 25, 2009, which was primarily due to
decrease of inventory by consumption of raw materials in productions and
increased sales of products.
Cash and
cash equivalents were $3,392,000 as of March 25, 2010, a decrease of $48,000
from December 25, 2009. The Company believes that it has enough cash available
and expects to have enough income and cash flow from operations to operate for
the next 12 months.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We have
never entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements and have not
formed any special purpose entities. We have not guaranteed any debt or
commitments of other entities or entered into any options on non-financial
assets.

Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
Under the
supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief
executive officer and the chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of

financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
