PART I

ITEM 1.     BUSINESS

Overview

We are the first mover and a leading producer and distributor of premium goat milk formula products for infants, toddlers, young children, and adults in China. Our current formula product lines are targeted at the premium segment of the diary market and health-conscious consumers. Headquartered in Tianjin, we sell and distribute our products through a network of approximately 3,600 retail points including infant-maternity chain stores, supermarkets (including multinational chains) and drug stores, as well as catalogue sales across China. We are vertically integrated and source raw goat milk from our proprietary dairy farms as well as neighboring goat dairy farmers on a long-term contract basis in collection centers, which helps us maintain quality control.

History and Corporate Structure

We were originally incorporated in Delaware in 1986 under the name of Commercial Ventures Ltd. The name was changed to FIN U.S.A., Inc. in 1987, and in 1993 to I/NET, INC. I/NET, developed and marketed computer software for mid range computers. In 2006, Tryant, LLC acquired a significant part of ownership of I/NET. In connection therewith, the business operations related to I/NET’s prior activities ended and the company commenced seeking other business opportunities. On April 15, 2007, our name was changed to Ardmore Holding Corporation and in September 2008, following the reverse merger described below, our name was changed to Yayi International Inc.

In June 2008, we entered into and completed a series of transactions pursuant to which we, among other things, (i) raised gross proceeds of $1.3 million from the sales of our convertible notes and warrants to certain investors, or the 2008 Investors, and (ii) acquired, through a reverse subsidiary merger, Charleston. Charleston owns 100% equity interest in Tianjin, an entity organized under the laws of PRC. Tianjin Yayi is a leading manufacturer and distributor of goat milk powder products in China. As a result of this reverse merger, we became the owner of Tianjin Yayi. On November 24, 2009, we and the 2008 Investors entered into a Settlement Agreement pursuant to which, each of the 2008 Investors converted its own entire principal amount of and accrued interest on all of the notes it holds into an aggregate 1,296,275 shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $1.08 per share.

In August 2008, we acquired Fuping Milkgoat Dairy Co., Ltd., or Fuping Milkgoat for approximately $620,000. Fuping Milkgoat purchases raw goat milk and processes it into powder.

On June 18, 2009, we entered into a series A preferred stock purchase agreement, or the Stock Purchase Agreement with Global Rock Stone Industrial Ltd, a BVI company, or Global Rock, Charleston, Tianjin Yayi, the individuals named thereto and an accredited investor, SAIF Partners III L.P. (“SAIF”). Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, we issued and sold to SAIF 1,530,612 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), at a price per share of $9.80 for an aggregate purchase price of $15.0 million. The Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into the Company’s common stock at an initial conversion price at $0.98 per share, which conversion price is subject to stock split, recapitalization and other anti-dilution protection, as well as adjustments based on the Company’s financial performance.

In connection with the above private placement transaction, on June 16, 2009, we filed a Certificate of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, or the Certificate, which became effective upon filing. Pursuant to the Certificate, there are 1,530,612 shares of Series A Preferred Stock authorized. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive non-cumulative dividends, when, as and if declared by the Board. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be converted into the Company’s common stock at the option of the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock in whole or in part at any time at an initial conversion price of $0.98, subject to future adjustments set forth in the Certificate. Specifically, the Certificate established a minimum after-tax net income threshold of $10.45 million for the 12-month period ending June 30, 2010 and $14.3 million for the 12-month period ending June 30, 2011, or the 2011 Net Income Threshold. If we fail to achieve these net income thresholds, then the conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock is reduced in accordance with a formula specified in the Certificate. The adjustment applicable to the 12-month period ending June 30, 2011, however, contains a grace period that provides us with additional time if it has not achieved the 2011 Net Income Threshold by June 30, 2011. If the Company has not achieved the 2011 Net Income Threshold, the conversion price will be instead adjusted based on the Company’s after-tax net income on an annualized basis for an 18-month period ending December 31, 2011.

The following chart reflects our organizational structure as of the date of this report.


Dairy Industry in China

Industry Growth Drivers

China’s large population, growing disposable income and rapidly changing consumer habits create a favorable market for premium dairy products. According to a report by Bank of America Merrill Lynch, China’s per capita dairy consumption remains one of the lowest globally, merely 18.3kg in 2008 which is 1/7 of the consumption in US. Industry professionals forecast that the per capita dairy consumption in China could reach 27kg by 2015 and 36kg by 2020 driven by increasing population and higher per capita consumption.

The prospects for China’s infant formula market look particularly promising with on average 17 million newborns each year. The country may be experiencing a small baby boom due to an exception to China’s one-child policy; parents who are both single children of their respective families are allowed to have a second child. According to Euromonitor, the infant formula market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 23.1% between 2008 and 2013. In general, the one-child policy makes Chinese parents inclined to prioritize their children’s health over other consumption, which supports the market for premium infant formula products.

The Case of Goat Milk

According to China Dairy Association, goat milk can potentially account for 3% of China’s RMB200 billion (approximately $29 billion) dairy market. We , with our broad product portfolio and first mover position in goat milk production and distribution, are well positioned to take advantage of this increased demand.

China’s government has been promoting milk consumption since the mid 1990s because of its beneficial nutritional properties. The Eleventh Five-Year Plan (2006-2011) encourages every Chinese citizen to consume 0.5 kg of dairy products per day. The favorable government policies coupled with the prevalence of sensitivity towards cow milk products in China further support the demand for goat milk. Independent studies (for example Prosser et al (2003) and Bevilacqua et al (2001)) demonstrate that goat milk has a beneficial protein structure compared with cow milk, facilitating absorption of nutrients in goat milk by the human digestive system, which may make goat milk a more suitable alternative for Chinese consumers who have experienced problems with digesting cow milk.

3


Compared with cow milk, the molecules of lactose and fat globules are smaller in goat milk, making goat milk more easily absorbed by individuals who are sensitive to milk products. Moreover, lower acidity, the concentration of medium-chain triglyceride fatty acids, and the absence of r-casein, the main allergen found in cow milk, improve the digestibility of goat milk, making it an appealing substitute for cow milk.

Post Melamine Scandal Era

In 2008, the reputation of China’s dairy industry was severely damaged as melamine, a toxic chemical used to manufacture plastics, was discovered in products from 22 domestic dairy producers. In response, the Chinese government issued the Regulation on the Supervision and Administration of the Quality and Safety of Dairy Products, which encourages stricter national standards for the quality and safety of dairy products, heightens sanitary requirements, and imposes more responsibility on dairy processors to control the sources of raw milk. In addition, a Food Safety Act has been implemented in June 2009 to revise problems related to the scandal. Dairy processors are strongly encouraged to implement HACCP or GMP quality certification systems. Further efforts to align the interests of different parties including farmers, processors, dairies and consumers are underway.

Following the scandal, the Ministry of Agriculture stipulated that only one milk processing plant be allowed on a ranch within the radius of 60 kilometers. New projects must reach processing capacity of 200 tons of raw milk per day based on raw milk sources proprietary to or controlled by the dairy processor, and raw milk must contribute to no less than 30% of total processing capacity. The added capacity in expansion projects must reach at least 100 tons of raw milk per day, and 75% of the existing processing capacity must be based on raw milk sources proprietary to or controlled by the dairy processor.

With the growing awareness and lingering safety concerns about cow milk, we are well positioned to take advantage of the unprecedented opportunity to cement our presence in the goat milk and premium infant formula sectors.

Our Competitive Strengths

We believe that our success to date and potential for future growth can be attributed to a combination of our strengths, including the following:

  • First Mover Advantage. Goat milk is emerging as an ideal substitute to cow milk as consumers are increasingly aware of its benefits particularly for infants, who prefer a dairy product with a nutritional and molecular composition closer to human milk. We are the first Chinese company to produce, sell and distribute goat milk formula products throughout China since 2001.

  • Dedication to Quality Control. We source raw milk from our proprietary dairy farms and other goat dairy farmers on long-term contract basis in the Shaanxi Province in northwestern China, where dairy goats are abundant and of optimal breed for milk production. Vertically integrated production and the ability to control raw goat milk sources enable us to secure raw material supply, and thus maintain our leading position in the market. Proprietary dairy farm and goat milk collection centers have also benefited us following the 2008 cow milk scandal, when melamine was found in various cow milk-based infant formula products in China. In the wake of the scandal, Chinese food safety authorities imposed stricter industry regulation regarding supply chain quality control and expansion plans for dairy processors, which has benefited established players like us . Our facilities are ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and HACCP certified.

  • High-end Products. We have been a leading producer and distributor of goat milk formula products for infants, toddlers, young children, and adults in China. Our current formula product lines are targeted at the premium segment of the diary market and health-conscious consumers. Given goat milk’s nutritional and molecular composition closer to human milk as well as the scarcity of goat milk for dairy goats have limited production capacity when compared to dairy cows, our goat milk products are positioned as a much more highly valued dairy product in the market.

4


  • Experienced Management. Our senior management team has extensive operating experience and industry knowledge. Ms. Li Liu, who is our founder, Chairwoman, CEO and President, started the Company’s goat milk business since 2001. She has been a pioneer in the industry. Mr. Feng Shek, who has served as our Executive Director, Vice President and Deputy General Manager, was deeply involved in the goat milk business while at P&G Taiwan. He was formerly Director of Sales for P&G Taiwan.

Our Growth Strategy

As a leading goat milk producer and distributor in China, we believe we are well positioned to capitalize on future industry growth in China. We are dedicated to providing healthy and high quality products to our consumers. We will implement the following strategic plans to take advantage of industry opportunities and our competitive strengths:

  • Focus on brand development. In order to manifest its position as China’s leader in goat milk products and to educate consumers about the benefits of goat milk, we plan to invest in strengthening our brand equity. In November 2009, we engaged US-based branding and strategic positioning agency, Trout & Partners to enhance our brand position and build “Milk Goat” into a household brand in China. As part of the strategy, we intend to target more supermarkets with our products.

  • Increase production capacity. We are in the process of increasing our production capacity for goat milk products by more than 400%. We broke ground on a new facility in Shaanxi Province in November 2009, which is expected to commence production by the end of 2010 and become the largest raw goat milk processing base in China. We have also invested in a new processing plant in Tianjin, which is expected to go into trial production in the second quarter of calendar year 2010. While increasing production, we also develop our product portfolio in order to penetrate additional consumer segments.

  • Expand distribution network. We sell and distribute our products through a network of approximately 3,600 retail points including infant-maternity chain stores, supermarkets (including multinational chains) and drug stores, as well as catalogue sales across China. The infant-maternity chain stores currently contribute to the bulk of our sales efforts. Beginning in 2010, we expect to expand aggressively into the supermarkets segment as well as online sales through our online store on Taobao.com.

  • Focus on quality control. We continue to improve our product inspection procedures and monitor our raw milk suppliers in order to ensure the high quality of our products.

Our Goat Milk Products – Powder and Liquid

We currently manufacture and distribute powder and liquid goat milk products. For our fiscal years ended October 31, 2009 and 2008, powder products accounted for approximately 99% and 90% of net sales, respectively, and liquid products accounted for approximately 1% and 8% of net sales, respectively. Our powder products are sold throughout most of China. Sales of powdered products began in Tianjin and Beijing during 2001 to 2003, in Southern China during 2004 to 2006 and Northern China during 2006 through the present. Sales of liquid products began in Tianjin in January 2007 and in Beijing, Zhejiang and Fujian in March 2008. We anticipate gradually expanding the areas in which liquid products are sold. Powder products generally generate higher gross margins than liquid products though we believe that over the long term, the sales volume of our liquid products will be greater than powder products.

We sell approximately 58 different goat milk powder products. Our principal goat milk powder product lines may generally be categorized as follows:

  • Powders targeted to or formulated for infants aged 0 - 6 months old, babies 6 - 12 months old, toddlers from 1 - 3 years old, pre-schoolers from 3-7 years old and children, teens and adolescents. Generally, powders targeted to age groups ranging from 0 to 7 years old represent between 60-70% of our net sales.

5


  • Powders targeted to or formulated for pre-and post-natal women.

  • Powders targeted to or formulated for those interested in maintaining general health and well being, enhancing beauty, inducing restfulness and reducing eye fatigue.

  • Sugar-free goat milk powder targeted to or formulated for those who desire to regulate their sugar intake.

  • Powders targeted to or formulated for health conscious adults.

Most of our goat milk products are formulated through the inclusion of supplements such as vitamins, calcium, iron, selenium, chromium and omega-3 fatty acids, as needed to address the nutritional or health needs of the consumer.

Raw Materials and Suppliers

Our supply of goat milk comes from Saanen dairy goats raised on individual and small-scale farms in Weinan City in China’s Shaanxi Province. This province is one of the three largest goat milk producing areas in China; an area especially conducive to the production of goat milk, with a reputation as one of the most fertile and agriculturally rich regions in China in which to raise dairy goats. Saanen dairy goats are known for the quantity and quality of milk they produce and usually yield the industry’s ideal of 3-4 percent milk fat. In fiscal 2009, approximately 41% of our goat milk requirements were supplied by five small-scale cooperative farms (i.e., farms that generally support flocks of between 100-200 goats), ,and approximately 59% of these requirements were supplied by 18 small-scale farm (i.e., farms that generally support flocks of between 100-200 goats) In fiscal 2009, we acquired an aggregate of approximately 9,418 tons of raw goat milk, of which approximately 3,868 tons was purchased from the five small scale cooperative farms and the balance was acquired from the individual farms. We have short-term supply arrangements with local governmental and quasi-governmental authorities pursuant to which we purchase all the milk produced by the small-scale farms subject to that local authority at a price negotiated from time to time by us and the individual farm.

We are not dependent on any single supplier or group of suppliers for our raw milk supply. No supplier of raw goat milk accounted for more than ten percent of our goat milk requirements for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2009 and 2008. We believe that our relationships with our raw goat milk suppliers are satisfactory and that alternative sources of supply are available to us on no less favorable terms than are currently available.

Other materials used to produce powdered include desalting whey powder, lactose, plant fat powder, lactalbumin, whey protein concentrate, soybean lecithin, various vitamin and mineral supplements and packaging materials. During fiscal 2009, LinTong Honxing Dairy Co., Ltd. accounted for approximately 7.6% of our purchasing volume and during fiscal 2008, it accounted for 13% of our purchasing volume. We have not experienced any significant difficulty in purchasing these or any other materials. We believe that alternative sources of supply are available to us on no less favorable terms than are currently available.

Processing

The raw goat milk is collected by hand or machine and brought to a collection station. There are approximately 500 collection stations (fifty of which are engaged with us through cooperation) distributed throughout Weinan County that are used to collect the goat milk into refrigerated storage tanks, which are then delivered by refrigerated vans to our processing plants.

The raw milk to be converted into a powder is passed through a high pressure gauge, converting the milk into a fine spray which, through the use of a high temperature fan, quickly dries the spray into a powder. The powder is then shipped to another processing facility at which it is supplemented with various nutritional components and is then packaged into various types of containers for distribution to our wholesale distributors.

We have one spray tower in our Fuping Milkgoat Goat Milk Co. Ltd., which is used to make raw liquid goat milk into raw goat milk powder.

6


We have engaged two independent processors to assist us in the processing of our raw goat milk into powder products. They provide, among other things, production facilities, offices, dormitories, equipment and personnel to assist in the processing of raw liquid goat milk into raw goat milk powder products.

Sales and Marketing

Currently, we have 428 experienced marketing personnel who are responsible for market research, promotion and advertisement. We strengthen our market presence by employing various types of marketing strategies. We participate in annual trade shows such as National Baby and Young Children Fair and National Sugar and Spirit Fair, offer seminars and lectures to local communities regarding the health benefits of our goat milk products, television advertisements at national and local levels, and other promotional activities. These activities help to promote our reputation and brand name recognition in the industry.

We use more than 400 distributors to sell our products. The distributors are located in 26 provinces in China. We sell and distribute our products through a network of approximately 3,600 retail points including infant-maternity chain stores, supermarkets (including multinational chains) and drug stores, as well as catalogue sales across China.

We use three independent trucking contractors to distribute our products throughout China. We selected these trucking companies based on cost and efficiency. We believe that alternative shipping arrangements are available if required, on no less favorable terms than are currently available.

We do not significantly depend on any single customer for the sales of our products. We did not have any customer constituting greater than 10% of net sales for the year ended October 31, 2009.

Competition

The dairy industry in China is highly competitive and we face substantial competition from both cow and goat milk producers.

Cow milk accounts for more than 90% of the milk consumed in China. The principal producers and distributors of cow milk are Inner Mongolia Yili Industrial Group Co., Ltd. and Inner Mongolia Meng Niu Dairy (Group) Co., Ltd. We compete with cow milk based on the nutritional advantages of goat milk. Those advantages include higher nutritional levels of proteins and vitamins (in particular, vitamins B1, B2 and C) and ease of digestibility. These factors make goat milk particularly attractive for those interested in maintaining a healthy lifestyle and for use by infants and other consumers sensitive to dairy products or allergic to cow milk. However, cow milk’s competitive advantages over goat milk include more favorable pricing, easy availability, and greater market acceptance. This greater market acceptance is attributable to, among other things, the historic association of goat milk with unfavorable smells, a much larger supply of available cow milk, and the fact that goat milk has only recently developed as an alternative available to consumers in China on a mass-market basis. We are working to improve acceptance of goat milk through marketing efforts geared towards emphasizing its nutritional advantages and its favorable taste and smell.

We also compete directly with China and foreign-based goat milk manufacturers. Our China based competitors include Dalian Jiuyang, Shaanxi Red Star Dairy Ltd. and Shaanxi Guanshan Dairy Ltd. We believe that the principal competitive advantages in competing with our China-based competitors are product recognition (including recognition based on quality flavor and price), strong distribution relationships, established supply sources, and quality. Our foreign competitors include Karihome (Dairy Goat Co-operative (NZ) Ltd ("DGC")) and Mead Johnson. We compete with our foreign competitors, and in particular, the products sold by Mead Johnson principally through more favorable pricing though we believe that the quality of our products is comparable to, if not superior to, the quality of our competitors’ products.

Research and Development

Our research and development activities focus on upgrading and enhancing our unique, traditional recipes for our products and improvement in packaging. We currently have five employees dedicated to research and development.

7


For the years ended October 31, 2009 and 2008, we expended $150,101 and $113,309, respectively, with respect to research and development activities. We are in the process of developing new goat milk based products but do not anticipate that such products will have a material impact in the near term on our results of operations.

Intellectual Property

In 2002, we registered in China the trademark, “Mei Ke Gao Te” (a transliteration of “Milk Goat” in Chinese) for use with our liquid and powder products and the trademark, “Yi Mei Shi” for use with our powder products. The “Mei Ke Gao Te” mark is generally used for all our products other than those formulated to provide a particular nutritional or health benefit and the “Yi Mei Shi” mark is used for those products emphasizing a specific health or nutritional benefit. Each of such trademarks has a term of ten years and may be renewed thereafter.

On June 12, 2009, we entered into a purchase agreement to buy the goat odor elimination technologies out right from Taiwan Richlink Enterprise Company Ltd., pursuant to which we are permitted to use these technologies with respect to all of our products. All payments required to be made by us under this arrangement have been made. We are prohibited, with certain exceptions, from disclosing or transferring the technology.

Regulatory Matters

We are regulated under national, provincial and local laws in China. These regulations govern, among other things, the manufacture and composition of products and ingredients, product labeling and packaging (including the format and content of product labels nutritional information), product safety and specified manufacturing practices (including mandating quality assurance programs). Our facilities are subject to inspection and licensing requirements and our trade practices (including claims made with respect to product effectiveness of our products) are regulated.

The national, provincial and local governments have increased their oversight of the production and distribution of dairy products in response to melamine contamination of certain dairy products produced in China. In September 2008, our goat milk products were inspected by China's Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (“AQSIQ”). AQSIQ determined that our products are safe. We anticipate that we will incur additional expense in complying with additional governmental regulation and oversight. We anticipate that we will generate additional net sales as consumers migrate to dairy products processed by companies, such as Tianjin Yayi, with reputations for producing quality products, though no assurance can be given in this regard.

We believe that we comply in all material respects with applicable rules and regulations.

Seasonality

While the consumption of goat milk is not seasonal, goat milk production is seasonal because goats generally do not produce milk from November through February. During such period, we generate sales of goat milk powder from our inventory that builds during the period preceding such hiatus.

Our Employees

As of October 31, 2009, we employed 604 full-time employees. The following table sets forth the number of our employees by function as of October 31, 2009.

Our employees are not represented by a labor organization or covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We have not experienced any work stoppages and we believe our relationship with our employees is satisfactory.

We are required by the PRC law to cover employees in China with various types of social insurance. We believe that we are in material compliance with the relevant PRC laws.

Insurance

We do not have any business liability, interruption or litigation insurance coverage for our operations in China. Insurance companies in China offer limited business insurance products. While business interruption insurance is available to a limited extent in China, we have determined that the risks of interruption, cost of such insurance and the difficulties associated with acquiring such insurance on commercially reasonable terms make it impractical for us to have such insurance. Therefore, we are subject to business and product liability exposure. See “Risk Factors – We do not carry any business interruption insurance, third-party liability insurance for our production facilities or insurance that covers the risk of loss of our products in shipment.”

ITEM 1A.     RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information included in this report. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could suffer. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline. You should also refer to the other information about us contained in this report, including our financial statements and related notes.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

Our products may not achieve or maintain market acceptance

We may have difficulty gaining market acceptance for goat milk generally and our products in particular because cow milk dominates the milk market in China, (constituting more than 90% of the milk sold), the favorable pricing of cow milk compared to goat milk, and the historic and long-term association of goat milk with unpleasant smells and tastes. As a result, achieving and maintaining market acceptance for our products will require substantial marketing efforts and the expenditure of significant funds to encourage consumption of goat milk in general, and the purchase of our products in particular. There is substantial risk that the market may not accept or be receptive to our products. Market acceptance of our products will depend, in large part upon our ability to inform potential customers that the distinctive characteristics of our products make them superior to competitive products and justify their pricing. Our products may not be accepted by consumers or be able to compete effectively.

The global economic crisis could further impair the dairy industry thereby limiting demand for our products and affecting the overall availability and cost of external financing for our operations.

The continuation or intensification of the global economic crisis and turmoil in the global financial markets may adversely impact our business and our potential sources of capital financing. Our ability to access the capital markets may be restricted at a time when we would like, or need, to raise capital, which could have an impact on our flexibility to react to changing economic and business conditions. In addition, these economic conditions also impact levels of consumer spending, which have recently deteriorated significantly and may remain depressed for the foreseeable future. Consumer purchases of discretionary items, including our goat milk powder, generally decline during recessionary periods and other periods where disposable income is adversely affected. If demand for our products fluctuates as a result of economic conditions or otherwise, our revenue and gross margin could be harmed. Presently, it is unclear whether and to what extent the economic stimulus measures and other actions taken or contemplated by the Chinese government and other governments throughout the world will mitigate the effects of the crisis on the dairy industry and other industries that affect our business. Although these conditions have not presently impaired our ability to access credit markets and finance our operations, the impact of the current crisis on our ability to obtain capital financing in the future, and the cost and terms of same, is unclear.

We depend on the national and local governments to support our industry and us.

The government plays a significant role in the economy in general and, the dairy industry in particular. Governmental authorities provide support for the development of the goat milk industry by, among other things, providing land, space and equipment for goat farms, financing goat farms, waiving compliance with otherwise applicable regulations, and reducing or eliminating tax obligations. Changes in governmental policies supportive of the development of this industry or failure to maintain good relations with governmental authorities may require us to incur expenses we are otherwise not required to incur. We may not have sufficient funds to pay such additional expenses and even if we do, our profitability may be reduced.

Recently discovered contamination of milk powder products produced in China could result in negative publicity and have a material adverse effect on our business.

Recently, a number of milk powder products produced within China were found to contain unsafe levels of tripolycyanamide, also known as melamine, sickening thousands of infants. This prompted the Chinese government to conduct a nationwide investigation into how the milk powder was contaminated, and caused a worldwide recall of certain milk powder products produced within China. Although we believe that the inevitable contraction in the Chinese milk powder industry caused by this crisis will lead to increased demand for our products, it is possible that the illnesses caused by contamination in the milk powder industry may lead to a sustained decrease in demand for milk powder products produced within China, thereby having a material adverse effect on our business. See “Item 1. Business-Regulatory Matters.”

We depend on supplies of raw milk and other raw materials, a shortage of which could result in reduced production and sales revenues and/or increased production costs.

Raw goat milk is the primary raw material we use to produce our products. We do not own our goats and depend on small goat farms and individual goat farmers for our supply of raw goat milk. We expect that we will need to continue to increase the number of farms and farmers from which we source raw milk. If we are not able to maintain our relationships with current suppliers and develop new sources of supply, we will not be able to meet our production goals and our sales will fall. If we are forced to expand our sources for raw milk, it may be more and more difficult for us to maintain our quality control over the handling of the product in our supply and manufacturing chain. A decrease in the quality of our raw materials would cause a decrease in the quality of our product and could damage our reputation and cause sales to decrease.

Raw goat milk production is, in turn, influenced by a number of factors that are beyond our control including, but not limited to, the following:

  • seasonal factors: goats generally do not produce milk from November through February; further goats produce more milk in temperate weather than in cold or hot weather and extended unseasonably cold or hot weather could lead to lower than expected production; and

  • governmental agricultural and environmental policy: declines in government grants, subsidies, provision of land, technical assistance and other changes in agricultural and environmental policies may have a negative effect on the viability of individual and small farms, and the numbers of dairy cows and quantities of milk they are able to produce.

Even if we are able to source sufficient quantities of raw milk or our other raw materials to meet our needs, downturns in the supply of such raw materials caused by one or more of these factors could lead to increased raw material costs which we may not be able to pass on to the consumers of our products, causing our profit margins to decrease.

10


The milk business is highly competitive and, therefore, we face substantial competition in connection with the marketing and sale of our products.

We face competition from cow milk and goat milk producers. Most of our competitors producing cow milk are well established, have greater financial, marketing, personnel and other resources than we have been in business for longer periods of time than we have, and have products that have gained wide customer acceptance in the marketplace. The greater financial resources of such competitors will permit them to procure retail store shelf space and to implement extensive marketing and promotional programs, both generally and in direct response to our advertising claims. The milk industry is also characterized by the frequent introduction of new products, accompanied by substantial promotional campaigns. We may be unable to compete successfully or our competitors may develop products that have superior qualities or gain wider market acceptance than ours.

Possible volatility of raw milk costs makes our operating results difficult to predict, and a steep cost increase could cause our profits to diminish significantly.

The policy of China since the mid-1990s has focused on moving the industry in a more market-oriented direction. These reforms have resulted in the potential for greater price volatility relative to past periods, as prices are more responsive to the fundamental supply and demand aspects of the market. These changes in China’s dairy policy could increase the risk of price volatility in the dairy industry, making our net income difficult to predict. Also, if prices are allowed to escalate sharply, our costs will rise which will lead to a decrease in profits.

Our sales and reputation may be affected by product liability claims, litigation, product recalls, or adverse publicity in relation to our products.

The sale of products for human consumption involves an inherent risk of injury to consumers. We face risks associated with product liability claims, litigation, or product recalls, if our products cause injury, or become adulterated or misbranded. Our products are subject to product tampering, and to contamination risks, such as mold, bacteria, insects, and other pests, and off-flavor contamination during the various stages of the procurement, production, transportation and storage processes. If any of our products were to be tampered with, or become tainted in any of these respects and we were unable to detect this, our products could be subject to product liability claims or product recalls. We cannot predict what impact such product liability claims or resulting negative publicity would have on our business or on our brand image. The successful assertion of product liability claims against us could result in potentially significant monetary damages, diversion of management resources and require us to make significant payments and incur substantial legal expenses. We do not have product liability insurance and have not made provisions for potential product liability claims. Therefore, we may not have adequate resources to satisfy a judgment if a successful claim is brought against us. Even if a product liability claim is not successfully pursued to judgment by a claimant, we may still incur substantial legal expenses defending against such a claim. Finally, serious product quality concerns could result in governmental action against us, which, among other things, could result in the suspension of production or distribution of our products, loss of certain licenses, or other governmental penalties. A widespread product recall could result in significant loss due to the cost of conducting a product recall including destruction of inventory and the loss of sales resulting from the unavailability of the product for a period of time. In addition, product liability claims and product recalls could have a material adverse effect on the demand for our products and on our business goodwill and reputation. Adverse publicity could result in a loss of consumer confidence in our products.

We compete in an industry that is brand-conscious, and unless we are able to establish and maintain brand name recognition, our sales may be negatively impacted.

Our business is substantially dependent upon awareness and market acceptance of our products and brand by our targeted consumers. In addition, our business depends on acceptance by our suppliers and consumers of our brand. Although we believe that we have made progress towards establishing market recognition for our brands “Mei Ke Gao Te” and “Yi Mei Shi” in the dairy products industry in China, it is too early in the product life cycle of the brand to determine whether our products and brand will achieve and maintain satisfactory levels of acceptance by our customers.

11


Expansion of our business may put added pressure on our management and operational infrastructure impeding our ability to meet any potential increased demand for the products that we sell and possibly hurting our future operating results.

Our business plan is to grow our operations significantly to meet anticipated growth in demand for the products that we sell, and by the introduction of new product offerings. Growth in our business may place a significant strain on our personnel, management, financial systems and other resources. The evolution of our business also presents numerous risks and challenges, including:

  • our ability to successfully and rapidly expand sales to potential new distributors in response to potentially increasing demand;

  • the costs associated with such growth, which are difficult to quantify, but could be significant; and

  • rapid technological change.

To accommodate any such growth and compete effectively, we may need to obtain additional funding to improve information systems, procedures and controls and expand, train, motivate and manage our employees, and such funding may not be available in sufficient quantities, if at all. If we are not able to manage these activities and implement these strategies successfully to expand to meet any increased demand, our operating results could suffer.

Due to our rapid growth in recent years, our past results may not be indicative of our future performance and evaluating our business and prospects may be difficult.

Our business has grown and evolved rapidly in recent years as demonstrated by our growth in net income for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2009 to $5.4 million, from $1.8 million for the prior fiscal year. We may not be able to achieve similar growth in future periods, and our historical operating results may not provide a meaningful basis for evaluating our business, financial performance and prospects. Moreover, our ability to achieve satisfactory production results at higher volumes is unproven. Therefore, you should not rely on our past results or our historical rate of growth as an indication of our future performance.

We depend heavily on key personnel, and turnover of key employees and senior management could harm our business.

Our future business and results of operations depend in significant part upon the continued contributions of our key technical and senior management personnel, including Li Liu, our chief executive officer and chairperson, and Feng Shek, our Vice President. If we lose any of these key employees and are unable to find a qualified replacement in a timely manner, our business will be negative impacted. In addition, if a key employee fails to perform in his or her current position, or if we are not able to attract and retain skilled employees as needed, our business could suffer. Significant turnover in our senior management could significantly deplete the institutional knowledge held by our existing senior management team. We depend on the skills and abilities of these key employees in managing the reclamation, technical, and marketing aspects of our business, any part of which could be harmed by turnover in the future.

Our inability to protect our intellectual property may prevent us from successfully marketing our products and competing effectively.

Failure to protect our intellectual property could harm our brands and our reputation, and adversely affect our ability to compete effectively. Further, enforcing or defending our intellectual property rights, including our trademarks, patents, copyrights, know how and trade secrets, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources. We produce, market and sell our products using trademarks of “Mei Ke Gao Te” and “Yi Mei Shi.” We regard our intellectual property, particularly our trademark, know how and trade secrets to be of considerable value and importance to our business and our success. We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, trade secrecy laws, and contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property rights. There can be no assurance that the steps taken by us to protect these proprietary rights will be adequate or that third parties will not infringe or misappropriate our patent, trademark, trade secrets or similar proprietary rights. In addition, there can be no assurance that other parties will not assert infringement claims against us, and we may have to pursue litigation against other parties to assert our rights. Any such claim or litigation could be costly and we may lack the resources required to defend against such claims. In addition, any event that would jeopardize our proprietary rights or any claims of infringement by third parties could have a material adverse affect on our ability to market or sell our brands, and profitably exploit our products.

12


We do not carry any business interruption insurance, third-party liability insurance for our production facilities or insurance that covers the risk of loss of our products in shipment.

Operation of our facilities involves many risks, including equipment failures, natural disasters, industrial accidents, power outages, labor disturbances and other business interruptions. Furthermore, if any of our products are faulty, then we may become subject to product liability claims or we may have to engage in a product recall. We do not carry any business interruption insurance, product recall or third-party liability insurance for our production facilities or with respect to our products to cover claims pertaining to personal injury or property or environmental damage arising from defects in our products, product recalls, accidents on our property or damage relating to our operations. As a result, we may be required to pay for financial and other losses, damages and liabilities, including those caused by natural disasters and other events beyond our control, out of our own funds, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may be exposed to liabilities under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and any determination that we violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We are subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practice Act, or the FCPA, and other laws that prohibit improper payments or offers of payments to foreign governments and their officials and political parties by U.S. persons and issuers as defined by the statute for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. We have operations, agreements with third parties and make sales in China, which may experience corruption. Our activities in China create the risk of unauthorized payments or offers of payments by one of the employees, consultants, sales agents or distributors of our company, because these parties are not always subject to our control. It is our policy to implement safeguards to discourage these practices by our employees. Also, our existing safeguards and any future improvements may prove to be less than effective, and the employees, consultants, sales agents or distributors of our Company may engage in conduct for which we might be held responsible. Violations of the FCPA may result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, and we may be subject to other liabilities, which could negatively affect our business, operating results and financial condition. In addition, the government may seek to hold our Company liable for successor liability FCPA violations committed by companies in which we invest or that we acquire.

Our management has identified deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting, which if not properly remediated could result in material misstatements in our future interim and annual financial statements and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and the price of our common stock.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

See “Item 9A(T). Controls and Procedures” for a discussion of matters pertaining to our internal controls over financial reporting.

Although we are in the process of implementing initiatives aimed at addressing these deficiencies, these initiatives may not remediate the inadequacy. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could result in us not being able to accurately report our financial results, prevent or detect fraud or provide timely and reliable financial and other information pursuant to the reporting obligations we have as a public company, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Further, it could cause our investors to lose confidence in the information we report, which could adversely affect the price of our common stock.

13


We do not have any independent directors and may be unable to appoint any qualified independent directors.

We currently do not have any independent directors. We plan to appoint a number of independent directors that will constitute a majority of our board of directors before our common stock is listed on a national securities exchange or NASDAQ, but we may not be able to identify independent directors qualified to be on our board.

RISKS RELATED TO DOING BUSINESS IN CHINA

Adverse changes in political and economic policies of the PRC government could impede the overall economic growth of China, which could reduce the demand for our products and damage our business.

We conduct substantially all of our operations and generate most of our revenue in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are affected significantly by economic, political and legal developments in China. The PRC economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including:

  • a higher level of government involvement;

  • a early stage of development of the market-oriented sector of the economy;

  • a rapid growth rate;

  • a higher level of control over foreign exchange; and

  • the allocation of resources.

As the PRC economy has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy, the PRC government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. While these measures may benefit the overall PRC economy, they may also have a negative effect on us.

Although the PRC government has in recent years implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the PRC government continues to exercise significant control over economic growth in China through the allocation of resources, controlling the payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and imposing policies that impact particular industries or companies in different ways.

Any adverse change in economic conditions or government policies in China could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth in China, which in turn could lead to a reduction in demand for our services and consequently have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects.

Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system could limit the legal protections available to you and us.

We conduct substantially all of our business through our operating subsidiaries in the PRC. Our operating subsidiaries are generally subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investments in China and, in particular, laws applicable to foreign-invested enterprises. The PRC legal system is based on written statutes, and prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. Since 1979, a series of new PRC laws and regulations have significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, since the PRC legal system continues to evolve rapidly, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involve uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to you and us. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention. In addition, all of our executive officers and all of our directors are residents of China and not of the United States, and substantially all the assets of these persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it could be difficult for investors to affect service of process in the United States or to enforce a judgment obtained in the United States against our Chinese operations and subsidiaries.

14


If we are found to have failed to comply with applicable laws, we may incur additional expenditures or be subject to significant fines and penalties.

Our operations are subject to PRC laws and regulations applicable to us. However, many PRC laws and regulations are uncertain in their scope, and the implementation of such laws and regulations in different localities could have significant differences. In certain instances, local implementation rules and/or the actual implementation are not necessarily consistent with the regulations at the national level. Although we strive to comply with all the applicable PRC laws and regulations, we cannot assure you that the relevant PRC government authorities will not later determine that we have not been in compliance with certain laws or regulations. Our failure to comply with applicable PRC laws and regulations could subject us to administrative penalties and injunctive relief, as well as civil remedies, including fines, injunctions and recalls of our products. It is possible that changes to such laws or more rigorous enforcement of such laws or with respect to our current or past practices could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

The PRC government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities.

The PRC government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, import and export tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. We believe that our operations in China are in material compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. However, the central or local governments of the jurisdictions in which we operate may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations.

Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof and could require us to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese properties or joint ventures.

Extensive regulation of the food processing and distribution industry in China could increase our expenses resulting in reduced profits.

We are subject to extensive regulation by China's Agricultural Ministry, and by other county and local authorities in jurisdictions in which our products are processed or sold, regarding the processing, packaging, storage, distribution and labeling of our products. Applicable laws and regulations governing our products may include nutritional labeling and serving size requirements. Our processing facilities and products are subject to periodic inspection by national, county and local authorities. To the extent that new regulations are adopted, we will be required to conform our activities in order to comply with such regulations. Our failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations could subject us to civil remedies, including fines, injunctions, recalls or seizures, as well as potential criminal sanctions, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations and finances.

Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive and use our sales revenue effectively.

All our sales revenue and expenses are denominated in RMB. Under PRC law, the RMB is currently convertible under the “current account,” which includes dividends and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, but not under the “capital account,” which includes foreign direct investment and loans. Currently, our PRC operating subsidiaries may purchase foreign currencies for settlement of current account transactions, including payments of dividends to us, without the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, the relevant PRC government authorities may limit or eliminate our ability to purchase foreign currencies in the future. Since a significant amount of our future revenue will be denominated in RMB, any existing and future restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to utilize revenue generated in RMB to fund our business activities outside China that are denominated in foreign currencies.

Foreign exchange transactions by our PRC operating subsidiaries under the capital account continue to be subject to significant foreign exchange controls and require the approval of or need to register with PRC government authorities, including SAFE. In particular, if our PRC operating subsidiaries borrow foreign currency through loans from us or other foreign lenders, these loans must be registered with SAFE, and if we finance the subsidiaries by means of additional capital contributions, these capital contributions must be approved by certain government authorities, including the Ministry of Commerce, or MOFCOM, or their respective local counterparts. These limitations could affect their ability to obtain foreign exchange through debt or equity financing.

15


Fluctuations in exchange rates could adversely affect our business and the value of our securities.

The value of our common stock will be indirectly affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB and between those currencies and other currencies in which our sales may be denominated. Appreciation or depreciation in the value of the RMB relative to the U.S. dollar would affect our financial results reported in U.S. dollar terms without giving effect to any underlying change in our business or results of operations. Fluctuations in the exchange rate will also affect the relative value of any dividend we issue in the future as well as earnings from, and the value of, any U.S. dollar-denominated investments we make in the future.

Since July 2005, the RMB has no longer been pegged to the U.S. dollar. Although the People’s Bank of China regularly intervenes in the foreign exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange rate, the RMB may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar in the medium to long term. Moreover, it is possible that in the future PRC authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in the RMB exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market.

Very limited hedging transactions are available in China to reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. To date, we have not entered into any hedging transactions. While we may enter into hedging transactions in the future, the availability and effectiveness of these transactions may be limited, and we may not be able to hedge our exposure successfully at all. In addition, our foreign currency exchange losses may be magnified by PRC exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert RMB into foreign currencies.

Restrictions under PRC law on our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to make dividends and other distributions could materially and adversely affect our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could benefit our business, pay dividends to you, and otherwise fund and conduct our businesses.

Substantially all of our revenues are earned by our PRC subsidiaries. However, PRC regulations restrict the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to make dividends and other payments to its offshore parent company. PRC legal restrictions permit payments of dividend by our PRC subsidiaries only out of their accumulated after-tax profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Our PRC subsidiaries are also required under PRC laws and regulations to allocate at least 10% of our annual after-tax profits determined in accordance with PRC GAAP to a statutory general reserve fund until the amounts in said fund reaches 50% of our registered capital. Allocations to these statutory reserve funds can only be used for specific purposes and are not transferable to us in the form of loans, advances or cash dividends. Any limitations on the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to transfer funds to us could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends and otherwise fund and conduct our business.

Under the New EIT Law, we may be classified as a “resident enterprise” of China. Such classification will likely result in unfavorable tax consequences to our non-PRC stockholders and us.

China passed a new Enterprise Income Tax Law, or the New EIT Law, and its implementing rules, both of which became effective on January 1, 2008. Under the New EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with “de facto management bodies” within China is considered a “resident enterprise,” meaning that it can be treated in a manner similar to a Chinese enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes. The implementing rules of the New EIT Law define de facto management as “substantial and overall management and control over the production and operations, personnel, accounting, and properties” of the enterprise. Because the New EIT Law and its implementing rules are new, no official interpretation or application of this new “resident enterprise” classification is available. Therefore, it is unclear how tax authorities will determine tax residency based on the facts of each case.

If the PRC tax authorities determine that Yayi International Inc. is a “resident enterprise” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, a number of unfavorable PRC tax consequences could follow. First, we may be subject to the enterprise income tax at a rate of 25% on our worldwide taxable income as well as PRC enterprise income tax reporting obligations. In our case, this would mean that non-China source income would be subject to PRC enterprise income tax at a rate of 25%. Second, although under the New EIT Law and its implementing rules dividends paid to us from our PRC subsidiaries would qualify as “tax-exempt income,” we cannot guarantee that such dividends will not be subject to a 10% withholding tax, as the PRC foreign exchange control authorities, which enforce the withholding tax, have not yet issued guidance with respect to the processing of outbound remittances to entities that are treated as resident enterprises for PRC enterprise income tax purposes. Finally, it is possible that future guidance issued with respect to the new “resident enterprise” classification could result in a situation in which a 10% withholding tax is imposed on dividends we pay to our non-PRC stockholders and with respect to gains derived by our non-PRC stockholders from transferring our shares. We are actively monitoring the possibility of “resident enterprise” treatment for the 2008 tax year and are evaluating appropriate organizational changes to avoid this treatment, to the extent possible.

16


If we were treated as a “resident enterprise” by PRC tax authorities, we would be subject to taxation in both the U.S. and China, and our PRC tax may not be creditable against our U.S. tax.

If the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or CSRC, or another PRC regulatory agency determines that CSRC approval is required in connection with the reverse acquisition of Charleston, the reverse acquisition may be unwound, or we may become subject to penalties.

On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the CSRC, promulgated the Provisions Regarding Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors, or the M&A Rule, which became effective on September 8, 2006. The M&A Rule, among other things, requires that an offshore company controlled by PRC companies or individuals that have acquired a PRC domestic company for the purpose of listing the PRC domestic company’s equity interest on an overseas stock exchange must obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of such offshore company’s securities on an overseas stock exchange. On September 21, 2006, the CSRC, pursuant to the M&A Rule, published on its official web site procedures specifying documents and materials required to be submitted to it by offshore companies seeking CSRC approval of their overseas listings.

We do not believe that the M&A Rule concerning the CSRC approval for acquisition of a PRC domestic company by an offshore company controlled by PRC companies or individuals applies to our reverse acquisition of Charleston because neither Yayi International Inc. nor Charleston is a “Special Purpose Vehicle” or an “offshore company controlled by PRC companies or individuals” as defined in the M&A Rule. If the CSRC or another PRC governmental agency subsequently determines that we must obtain CSRC approval prior to the completion of the reverse acquisition, the reverse acquisition may be unwound and we may face regulatory actions or other sanctions from the CSRC or other PRC regulatory agencies. These regulatory agencies may impose fines and penalties on our operations in China and limit our operating privileges in China, or take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation and prospects, as well as the trading price of our shares.

The M&A Rule establishes more complex procedures for some acquisitions of Chinese companies by foreign investors, which could make it more difficult for us to pursue growth through acquisitions in China.

The M&A Rule establishes additional procedures and requirements that could make some acquisitions of Chinese companies by foreign investors more time-consuming and complex, including requirements in some instances that the PRC Ministry of Commerce be notified in advance of any change-of-control transaction and in some situations, require approval of the PRC Ministry of Commerce when a foreign investor takes control of a Chinese domestic enterprise. In the future, we may grow our business in part by acquiring complementary businesses, although we do not have any plans to do so at this time. The M&A Rule also requires PRC Ministry of Commerce anti-trust review of any change-of-control transactions involving certain types of foreign acquirers. Complying with the requirements of the M&A Rule to complete such transactions could be time-consuming, and any required approval processes, including obtaining approval from the PRC Ministry of Commerce, may delay or inhibit our ability to complete such transactions, which could affect our ability to expand our business or maintain our market share.

You may have difficulty enforcing judgments against us.

We are a Delaware holding company and most of our assets are located outside of the United States. Most of our current operations are conducted in the PRC. In addition, most of our directors and officers are nationals and residents of countries other than the United States. A substantial portion of the assets of these persons is located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officers and directors, most of whom are not residents in the United States and the substantial majority of whose assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts. Courts in China may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedures Law based on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on reciprocity between jurisdictions. China does not have any treaties or other arrangements that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments with the United States. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, courts in the PRC will not enforce a foreign judgment against us or our directors and officers if they decide that the judgment violates basic principles of PRC law or national sovereignty, security or the public interest. So it is uncertain whether a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States.

RISKS RELATED TO THE MARKET FOR OUR STOCK GENERALLY

The market price of our common stock is volatile, leading to the possibility of its value being depressed at a time when you may want to sell your holdings.

The market price of our common stock is volatile, and this volatility may continue. Numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate significantly. In addition to market and industry factors, the price and trading volume for our common stock may be highly volatile for specific business reasons. Factors such as variations in our revenues, earnings and cash flow, announcements of new investments, cooperation arrangements or acquisitions, and fluctuations in market prices for our products could cause the market price for our shares to change substantially.

Securities class action litigation is often instituted against companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs to us and divert our management’s attention and resources.

Moreover, the trading market for our common stock will be influenced by research or reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us or our business. If one or more analysts who cover us downgrade our common stock, the market price for our common stock would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of us or fail to publish reports on us regularly, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which, in turn, could cause the market price for our common stock or trading volume to decline.

Furthermore, securities markets may from time to time experience significant price and volume fluctuations for reasons unrelated to operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may adversely affect the price of our common stock and other interests in our company at a time when you want to sell your interest in us.

We may be subject to penny stock regulations and restrictions and you may have difficulty selling shares of our common stock.

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define so-called “penny stocks” to be an equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. If our common stock becomes a “penny stock”, we may become subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act, or the Penny Stock Rule. This rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” (generally, individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual incomes exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouses). For transactions covered by Rule 15g-9, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale. As a result, this rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell any of our securities in the secondary market.

18


For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in penny stock, of a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.

There can be no assurance that our common stock will qualify for exemption from the Penny Stock Rule. In any event, even if our common stock were exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Exchange Act, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating in a distribution of penny stock, if the SEC finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board which may have an unfavorable impact on our stock price and liquidity.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. The OTC Bulletin Board is a significantly more limited market than the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ system. The quotation of our shares on the OTC Bulletin Board may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential stockholders to trade shares of our common stock, could depress the trading price of our common stock and could have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future.

Certain provisions of our Articles of Incorporation may make it more difficult for a third party to effect a change-of-control.

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes our board of directors to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The preferred stock may be issued in one or more series, the terms of which may be determined at the time of issuance by the board of directors without further action by the stockholders. These terms may include preferences as to dividends and liquidation, conversion rights, redemption rights and sinking fund provisions. The issuance of any preferred stock could diminish the rights of holders of our common stock, and therefore could reduce the value of such common stock. In addition, specific rights granted to future holders of preferred stock could be used to restrict our ability to merge with, or sell assets to, a third party. The ability of our board of directors to issue preferred stock could make it more difficult, delay, discourage, prevent or make it more costly to acquire or effect a change-in-control, which in turn could prevent our stockholders from recognizing a gain in the event that a favorable offer is extended and could materially and negatively affect the market price of our common stock. In connection with our private placement transaction in June 2009, we filed a Certificate of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on June 16, 2009, pursuant to which we issued 1,530,612 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to SAIF.

Because we do not intend to pay any dividends, stockholders must rely on stock appreciation for any return on their investment in our common stock.

We have not paid any dividends on our common stock and we do not intend to declare and pay any dividends on our common stock. Earnings, if any, are expected to be retained by us to finance and expand our business.

ITEM 2.     PROPERTIES

There is no private ownership of land in China and all land ownership is held by the government of China, its agencies, and collectives. In the case of land used for business purposes, land use rights can be obtained from the government for a period up to 50 years, and are typically renewable. Land use rights can be transferred upon approval by the land administrative authorities of China (State Land Administration Bureau) upon payment of the required land transfer fee.

We own or lease the following manufacturing and production facilities:

  • we own a facility located in Fuping County of Shaanxi Province capable of spray drying 50 metric tons of raw milk per day. The facility occupies an area of 100 square meters.

19


  • our wholly owned facility located in the Xiqing District of Tianjin City, which is, on the basis of a daily double shift, capable of combining and formulating the milk powder with the nutritional supplements and then packaging the end product at a rate of seven metric tons per day. The facility occupies an area of 800 square meters.

  • we also own a production line for box-packed milk powder, which has the production capacity of 500 metric tons per year. These production lines are located at our Xiqing facility.

We entered into a series of agreements in fiscal 2009 to purchase and construct 9 farm facilities and 10 raw milk collection station, to ensure a steady supply of raw liquid goat milk.

Construction in progress of goat farm facilities

During the year ended October 31, 2009, we signed several agreements with two construction companies, Zhuangli Construction Team and Fupin County Qinzheng Construction Engineering Corporation for the construction of farm facilities with a total amount of $2,524,093 (RMB17,260,000). $1,551,893 (RMB10,612,000) has been paid as of October 31, 2009. The remaining balance of $972,200 (RMB6,648,000) will be paid progressively. The final payment of 25% to Zhuangli Construction Team is due one year after the construction is completed and accepted. The remaining balance for the construction by Qinzheng Construction Engineering Corporation will be paid progressively and final payment of 10% is due one year after the construction is approved and accepted. Due to the changes of some construction location, the completion date was extended to May, 2010. On September 2009, we signed a supplemental agreement with Qinzheng Construction Engineering Corporation reducing the total amount of costs by $277,855 (RMB1,900,000) due to the changes of construction location. The remaining balance after reduction is $694,345 (RMB4,748,000) and will be paid progressively.

During the year ended October 31, 2009, we signed an agreement with Zhuangli Construction Team for the construction of goat milking stations with the total amount of $482,590 (RMB3,300,000). $459,192 (RMB3,140,000) has been paid as of October 31, 2009. The remaining balance of $23,398 (RMB160,000) is due one year after the construction is completed and accepted. Due to the low milk production season, we decided to postpone the date for installing equipment to May, 2010.

In August and October 2009, we signed 8 purchase agreements with 8 different farmers to buy farm facilities with the total amount of $1,197,701 (RMB8,190,000). All the purchase prices have been paid of by January 2010.

Purchase of Machinery & Equipment for Jinghai facilities

During the year ended October 31, 2009, we signed three contracts for purchasing machinery and equipment to expand our goat milk powder production lines and liquid goat milk production line, with the total amount of $6,214,372 (RMB42,494,500). $1,740,586 (RMB11,902,300) has been paid as of October 31, 2009. The remaining balance of $4,473,786 (RMB30,592,200) will be paid progressively. The machinery and equipment is expected to be delivered and inspected by March 31, 2010 and final payment of 5% is to be paid within 6 months after approval of final inspection of equipment received.

We also have approximately 26 sales offices located throughout China; these offices assist in coordinating, developing, and maintaining relationships with our distributors and retailers. The number of such offices fluctuates from time to time based on our assessment of our marketing and sales requirements. The leases for the sales offices are generally on an annual basis.

Our current administrative, processing and warehousing facilities are insufficient for our needs. Accordingly, we have entered into a number of agreements and arrangements to expand our facilities that are summarized below.

We and Tianjin Mengyang entered into an agreement in January 2007, subsequently amended, pursuant to which they would renovate and we would acquire a four-story office building, located in Tianjin City, which would serve as our executive, sales and administrative headquarters. The renovation, which was delayed, is now expected to be completed in July 2010.

20


We had entered into a factory and warehouse leasing agreement in January 2007 with Tianjin Mengyang pursuant to which we were to lease through 2029 an approximately 30,000 square meter factory and warehouse that was to be built in Tianjin City, China. In September 2008, this agreement was cancelled and in lieu thereof, the parties entered into a new agreement, subsequently amended, pursuant to which we have agreed to acquire facilities that are to be converted into three warehouses and a processing facility. In addition to the payments to be made to Tianjin Mengyang in connection with this agreement, we anticipate that we will require approximately $6 million to equip such facility to perform the contemplated functions. These facilities are to be completed by March 2010. In July 2008, we entered into an agreement, subsequently amended, with the government of Lin Wei District of Weinan City, or Weinan City Government, pursuant to which we are to build a 30,000 square meter goat milk processing facility in the Government’s industrial park. In connection with this agreement, Weinan City Government will transfer land use rights of approximately 67,000 square meter to the Company for 50 years for approximately $993,774 (RMB6,800,000). It is anticipated that initially such facility will be capable of spray drying 480 metric tons of raw goat milk per day and that at a later stage, such facility may be expanded as requirements dictate. We are to commence construction of this facility by March 2010 and have paid Weinan City Government an aggregate of approximately $942,096. In addition to the payments made to Weinan City Government, it is estimated that this project will cost approximately $16 million (approximately $9 million of fixed asset investment and approximately $7 million in working capital when such facility commences operations) and that such facility will commence operations in November 2010.

On October 28, 2009, our wholly owned subsidiary, Shaanxi Milkgoat, entered into a Project Installation Agreement ("Installation Agreement") with Heilongjiang Tianhong Food Equipment Co., Ltd. ("Heilongjiang Tianhong"), which provided for, among others, that Heilongjiang Tianhong was to provide and install all the process pipelines and the central system pipelines at Shaanxi Milkgoat’s new joint production facility. Pursuant to the Installation Agreement, Shaanxi Milkgoat agreed to pay Heiliongjiang Tianhong an aggregate of RMB 12,535,000 (approximately $1.84 million) in five installments for the service that Heilongjiang Tianhong will provide. Heiliongjiang Tianhong agreed to complete the installation within 90 days after Shaanxi Milkgoat provides to Heilongjiang Tianhong an appropriate construction site for the installation according to the Installation Agreement.

We believe that all our properties have been adequately maintained, are generally in good condition, and are suitable and adequate for our business.

ITEM 3.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise, in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

ITEM 7.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Overview

We are the first mover and a leading producer and distributor of premium goat milk formula products for infants, toddlers, young children, and adults in China. Our current formula product lines are targeted at the premium segment of the diary market and health-conscious consumers. Headquartered in Tianjin, we sell and distribute our products through a network of approximately 3,600 retail points including infant-maternity chain stores, supermarkets (including multinational chains) and drug stores, as well as catalogue sales across China. We are vertically integrated and source raw goat milk from our proprietary dairy farms as well as neighboring goat dairy farmers on a long-term contract basis in collection centers, which helps us maintain quality control.

Our net sales revenue grew by 14% in the fiscal year ended October 31, 2009 to approximately $24.8 million, from approximately $21.8 million for 2008. Our gross margin for 2009 was 68%.

Growth Strategy

As a leading goat milk producer and distributor in China, we believe we are well positioned to capitalize on future industry growth in China. We are dedicated to providing healthy and high quality products to our consumers. We intend to implement the following strategic plans to take advantage of industry opportunities and our competitive strengths:

  • Focus on brand development. In order to manifest our position as China’s leader in goat milk products and to educate consumers about the benefits of goat milk, we plan to invest in strengthening our brand equity. In November 2009, we engaged US-based branding and strategic positioning agency, Trout & Partners to enhance our brand position and build “Milk Goat” into a household brand in China. As part of the strategy, we plan to target more supermarkets with our products.

  • Increase production capacity. We are in the process of increasing our production capacity for goat milk products by more than 400%. We broke ground on a new facility in Shaanxi Province in November 2009, which is expected to commence production by the end of 2010 and become the largest raw goat milk processing base in China. We have also invested in a new processing plant in Tianjin, which is expected to go into trial production in the second quarter of calendar year 2010. While increasing production, we also develop our product portfolio in order to penetrate additional consumer segments.

  • Expand distribution network. We sell and distribute our products through a network of approximately 3,600 retail points including infant-maternity chain stores, supermarkets (including multinational chains) and drug stores, as well as catalogue sales across China. The infant-maternity chain stores currently contribute to the bulk of our sales efforts. Beginning in 2010, we intend to expand aggressively into the supermarkets segment as well as online sales through our online store on Taobao.com.

  • Focus on quality control. We continue to improve our product inspection procedures and monitor our raw milk suppliers in order to ensure the high quality of our products.

We are also, as described under “-Liquidity and Capital Resources” engaged in expanding our administrative, processing and warehousing facilities. See also “Item 2. Properties”.

Taxation

United States

Yayi International Inc. is subject to United States tax at a tax rate of 35%. No provision for income taxes in the United States has been made as Yayi International Inc. had no income taxable in the United States.

23


British Virgin Islands

Charleston was incorporated in the BVI and under the current laws of the BVI, is not subject to income taxes.

PRC

In 2007, the PRC government promulgated the new Enterprise Income Tax Law, or EIT Law, and the relevant implementation rules, which became effective on January 1, 2008. Under the EIT Law and its implementation rules, all domestic and foreign investment companies will be subject to a uniform enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% and dividends from PRC subsidiaries to their non-PRC shareholders will be subject to a withholding tax at a rate of 20%, which is further reduced to 10% by the implementation rules, if the non-PRC shareholder is considered to be a non-PRC tax resident enterprise without any establishment or place within China or if the dividends payable has no connection with the non-PRC shareholder’s establishment or place within China, unless any such non-PRC shareholder’s jurisdiction of incorporation has a tax treaty with China that provides for a different withholding arrangement. In addition, pursuant to the EIT Law, enterprises established under the laws of non-PRC jurisdictions, but whose “de facto management body” is located in the PRC, should be treated as resident enterprises for PRC tax purposes However, it is currently uncertain whether we may be deemed a resident enterprise, or how to interpret whether any income or gain is derived from sources within China. See “Risk Factors - Under the New EIT Law, we may be classified as a “resident enterprise” of China. Such classification will likely result in unfavorable tax consequences to our non-PRC shareholders and us. If we, as a Delaware company with substantially all of our management located in China, were treated as a resident enterprise for PRC tax purposes, we will be subject to PRC tax on our worldwide income at the 25% uniform tax rate, which would have an impact on our effective tax rate.

The EIT Law and the Implementing Rules also imposes a unified EIT of 25% on both foreign invested enterprises and domestic enterprises, effective January 1, 2008. As a result, each of our PRC subsidiaries, Tianjin Yayi, Weinan Milkgoat, Fuping Milkgoat, and Shaanxi Milkgoat have been subject to a 25% income tax rate in calendar year 2008 and 2009.

Results of Operations

Fiscal Year ended October 31, 2009 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended October 31, 2008

The following table sets forth a summary of certain key components of our results of operations for periods indicated, in dollars and the percentage of change from the prior period.

    Fiscal Year ended              
    October 31,              
    2009     2008     Change     Variance  
          (Restated)              
Net sales $  24,845,685    $  21,791,268    $  3,054,417     14%  
                         
Cost of goods sold   8,025,009     7,600,454     424,555     6%  
                         
Gross profit   16,820,676     14,190,814     2,629,862     19%  
                         
Net income   5,395,981     1,825,217     3,570,764     196%  

Net Sales. Net sales for fiscal 2009 were approximately $24.8 million, an increase of 14% from the prior year. Approximately 18% of this increase is attributable to changes in the currency exchange rate and the weakening of the U.S. dollar; the balance of the increase is attributable to an increase of approximately 101% in the volume of products sold which was partially offset by a decrease of approximately 1% in the weighted average price at which products were sold. The volume of products sold increased because of the improvement of incentives for sales team that resulted in better sales efforts coupled with better advertisement and promotion. The weighted average price decreased because of difference in portfolio mix of products between the two years.

24


Gross Profit. Gross profit for fiscal 2009 was approximately $16.82 million, an increase of 19% from the prior year. Our gross margin for 2009 was 68% compared to 65% for 2008. Approximately 19% of the increase in gross profit is attributable to changes in the currency exchange rate; the balance of the increase is primarily attributable to the increase in net sales (excluding the currency effects) coupled with reduced material costs as a result of our acquisition in August, 2008 of a supplier of raw goat milk, Fuping Milkgoat. Such vertical integration of our operations allows us to benefit from a higher profit margin for our products. See note 4 of our consolidated financial statements.

The following table sets forth a summary of certain key components of our operating expenses for the periods indicated, in dollars and the percentage of change from the prior period.

    Fiscal Year ended              
    October 31,     Change     Variance  
    2009     2008              
          (Restated)              
Advertising and promotion expenses   1,956,512     1,723,569     232,943     14%  
Salaries   1,606,774     1,333,775     272,999     20%  
Other selling, general and administrative expenses   3,586,607     2,735,313     851,294     31%  
Commissions   432,642     405,146     27,496     7%  
Research and development expenses   150,101     111,309     38,792     35%  
                         
Operating expenses   7,732,636     6,309,112     1,423,524     23%  

Operating Expenses. For fiscal 2009, operating expenses increased approximately 23% from fiscal 2008. Changes in currency exchange rates accounted for approximately 12% of this increase. The balance of the increase is primarily attributable to the increase in other selling, general administrative expenses, and to a lesser extent, salaries, advertising and promotion expense. Other selling, general and administrative expense increased because of increases in (i) professional fees and expenses, which increased due to our status as a U.S. public company, (ii) marketing strategy consulting fee, which increased by about $512,000 because the Company has engaged Trout & Partners China to assist in streamlining its product portfolio and refining its brand image in order to position and strengthen its “Milk Goat” brand as the premium goat milk brand throughout China; (iii) freight costs, which increased because of the volume of product shipped. The increase of Other selling, general and administrative expense is partially offset by the decrease of charges by retail stores, because the Company has been in the process of streamlining its products. The Company consciously restrained its marketing activities in the fourth quarter and sales of its planned new products such as goat milk tea, goat milk tablets, and coffee mate that subsequently resulted in lower sales than its original projections. Salaries increased due to the increase in the average sales rate. The Company’s advertising and promotion in 2009, as a percentage of sales, is 8% which is similar to the percentage of prior year. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales was 31% for fiscal 2009 versus 29% for fiscal 2008.

Interest Expense. Interest expense in fiscal 2009 increased by 19% from the prior year mainly because of our increased net borrowings although rates of interest on such borrowings is slightly lower than that of the corresponding period in the prior year. Changes in currency exchange rates had only a minimal impact on changes in interest expense. See notes 8 and 10 of our consolidated financial statements.

Accretion of debt discount and deferred financing cost. Accretion of debt discount and deferred financing cost increased by 649% from prior year which is mainly due to the fact that the convertible notes beneficial period is from June 2008 to December 2009.

25


Income Tax. Income tax in fiscal 2009 increased by approximately 35% from the corresponding period in the prior year. The increase is primarily attributable to the increased in sales and taxable income in fiscal 2009.

Net Income. Net income increased by approximately $3.57 million to approximately $5.4 million in fiscal 2009. After excluding merger costs in the prior year, accretion of debt discount and deferred financing cost of convertible notes and liquidated damage of convertible notes accrued this year , net income increased by approximately $750,000, or 14%, as a result of the factors described above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of October 31, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $10.4 million and working capital of approximately $18.2 million. Included in working capital are advances of approximately $18.54 million, principally to Tianjin Mengyang Biological Development Co., Ltd, (“Tianjin Mengyang”) for, among other things, (i) the purchase of an office building and (ii) the purchase of a factory and a warehouse. Advances increased by approximately $12.64 million from October 31, 2008; the increase is attributable to our payment to Tianjin Mengyang in fiscal 2009 of approximately $7.5 million and the inclusion in fiscal 2009 as current assets of approximately $3.6 million in advances that at October 31, 2008, had been included as a long term asset. This $3.6 million advance is now classified as a current asset because the payments with respect to the related obligation are due in less than one year. See notes 6 and 14 of our consolidated financial statements.

We intend to, and are in the process of, expanding our administrative and production facilities to meet our current needs and anticipated increased demand for our products. In connection therewith, we plan on spending approximately $16.6 million during fiscal 2010 through 2011 ($9.4 million during fiscal 2010 and $7.2 million during fiscal 2011). The $16.6 million in capital expenditure:

1) includes approximately $6.3 million of capital purchase obligations arising during fiscal 2010 through 2011 (approximately $5.9 million in the balance of fiscal 2010 and $0.4 million during fiscal 2011); and
   
2) excludes an aggregate of approximately $7.3 million (approximately $0.3 million in fiscal 2011 and approximately $7 million thereafter) of working capital that we currently anticipate will be required by our goat milk processing facility in Weinan City, Shaanxi Province when it commences operations in 2010-2012.

See note 14 of our consolidated financial statements.

On June 18, 2009, we completed a private placement pursuant to which we issued and sold 1,530,612 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to SAIF. As a result of this private placement, we raised $15 million in gross proceeds.

We believe that our currently available working capital should be adequate to sustain our operations at our current levels through at least the next twelve months. However, depending on our future needs, changes and trends in the capital markets affecting our shares and the Company, we may determine to seek additional equity or debt financing in the private or public markets.

The following table summarizes information about our net cash flows for the following periods.

    Fiscal Year Ended  
    October 31,  
    2009     2008  
             
Net cash provided by operating activities $  6,534,843    $  3,816,554  
Net cash (used in) investing activities   (12,400,482 )   (5,658,527 )
Net cash provided by financing activities   15,360,090     2,387,373  
Net increase in cash and cash equivalent   9,476,935     634,961  

26


Operating Activities:

Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately $6.53 million and $3.82 million for fiscal 2009 and 2008, respectively. Approximately 9% of the increase in the net cash provided by operating activities is attributable to the change in currency exchange rates; the balance of the increase is attributable primarily to the increase of net income and to a lesser extent attribute to the decrease in inventory. Inventory decreased due to increased sales coupled with more judicious efforts in replenishing our inventory. The increase in the net cash provided by operating activities was partially offset by increases in accounts receivable. Accounts receivable increase as a result of the increase in sales.

Investing Activities:

Net cash used in investing activities for fiscal 2009 was approximately $12.40 million, an increase of approximately $6.74 million from 2008. Approximately 12% of the increase is attributable to the change in currency exchange rates while the balance is attributable primarily to advances to Tianjin Mengyang for the construction and development of certain facilities In addition, the increase came from our construction of farm facilities located in Weinan, Shaanxi and to a lesser extent attribute to. the purchase of equipment for enhancing our production capacity in Weinan and Tianjin in fiscal 2010. See notes 6 and 14 of our consolidated financial statements.

Financing Activities:

Net cash provided by financing activities for fiscal 2009 was approximately $15.4 million compared to approximately $2.4 million of net cash provided by these activities in 2008. The change is primarily attributable to issuing and selling to the investor, SAIF Partners III L.P. 1,530,612 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock at a price per share of $9.80 for an aggregate purchase price of $15.0 million. See note 18 of our consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The principal activities of the Company and its subsidiaries consist of manufacturing and selling of goat milk powder and liquid goat milk. All activities of the Company are conducted principally by its subsidiaries Tianjin Yayi, Weinan Milkgoat, Fuping Milkgoat and Shaanxi Milkgoat operating in the PRC.

Basis of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Yayi International Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Charleston together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Tianjin Yayi, Weinan Milkgoat Fuping Milkgoat and Shaanxi Milkgoat. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Credit risk - The Company may be exposed to credit risk from its cash at bank, fixed deposits, and bills and accounts receivable. Bills and accounts receivable are subjected to credit evaluations. An allowance has been made for estimated irrecoverable amounts determined by reference to past default experience and the current economic environment.

Cash and cash equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash accounts, interest bearing savings accounts and time certificates of deposit with a maturity of three months or less when purchased.

Inventory - Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, determined by the weighted average method. Work-in-progress and finished goods inventories consist of raw materials, direct labor and overhead associated with the manufacturing process.

Trade accounts receivable - Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from balances outstanding at the period end.

Outstanding account balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.

27


Allowances for doubtful accounts receivable balances are recorded when circumstances indicate that collection is doubtful for particular accounts receivable or as a general reserve for all accounts receivable. Management estimates such allowances based on historical evidence such as amounts that are subject to risk. Accounts receivable are written off if reasonable collection efforts are not successful.

Based on management’s evaluation of historical experience, the following policy for allowance of doubtful accounts is established:

Trade and other receivables due:  % of Balance
Within 90 days: 1.5%
Between 91 and 180 days: 5.0%
Between 181 and 360 days: 20.0%
Between 361 and 720 days: 50.0%
Over 721 days: 100.0%

Livestock – Livestock consists of goats for milk production and for breeding purposes. The livestock is depreciated according to its estimated useful lives, which is 5 years for male goats and 7 years for female goats. The cost of raising the young goat is allocated to livestock and depreciation starts upon reaching maturity 13 months from date of birth. Not all young goats survive to maturity or disposition. Normal losses of young goats are not expensed directly but allocated to the surviving young goats. When abnormal losses of young goats occur, the accumulated costs of young goats lost are written off in the period in which the abnormal losses occur.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments – FASB ASC 820-10 requires disclosing fair value to the extent practicable for financial instruments that are recognized or unrecognized in the balance sheet. The fair value of the financial instruments disclosed herein is not necessarily representative of the amount that could be realized or settled, nor does the fair value amount consider the tax consequences of realization or settlement.

For certain financial instruments, including cash, accounts and other receivables, accounts payable, short-term loans, accruals and other payables, it was assumed that the carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the near term maturities of such obligations. The carrying amounts of long-term loans payable approximate fair value since the interest rate associated with the debt approximates the current market interest rate.

Property, plant and equipment-Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost including the cost of improvements. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Assets under construction are not depreciated until construction is completed and the assets are ready for their intended use. Depreciation and amortization are provided on the straight-line method based on the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or lease term as follows:

Leasehold improvement Lesser of term of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the assets
Plant and machinery 10 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment 5 years
Motor vehicles 5 years

Recoverability of Long Lived Assets -The Company follows FASB ASC 360. Long-lived assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company is not aware of any events or circumstances that indicate the existence of impairment, which would be material to the Company’s financial statements.

Goodwill - Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination, In accordance with FASB ASC 350-30, goodwill is no longer subject to amortization. Rather, goodwill will be subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment, applying a fair-value based test fair value is generally determined using a discounted cash flow analysis.

Revenue recognition - The Company recognizes revenue on product sales when products are delivered and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, collection of the relevant receivable is probable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and the sales price is fixed or determinable. Net sales of products represent the invoiced value of goods, net of value added taxes (“VAT”), sales returns, trade discounts and allowances. The Company is subject to VAT which is levied on majority of the Company’s products at the rate of 17% on the invoiced value of sales. Output VAT is borne by customers in addition to the invoiced value of sales and input VAT is borne by the Company in addition to the invoiced value of purchases to the extent not refunded for export sales. Input VAT paid is recoverable from output VAT charged to customers.

28


Prior to January 1, 2009, the Company allows for exchange of goods that are near expiration. The Company provided for an allowance for return products since the Company has experienced returns in the normal course of business. Subsequent to January 1, 2009, the Company revised its sales contracts to disallow returns for sales made after January 1, 2009.

Research and development - Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses amounted to $150,101 and $111,309 for the year ended October 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Advertising and promotion costs - Costs incurred in direct-response advertising are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the duration of the advertising campaign. As of October 31, 2009, there was no capitalized direct-response advertising. All other advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising and promotion costs amounted to $1,956,512 and $1,723,569 for the year ended October 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Comprehensive income - The Company follows FASB ASC 220-10 in reporting comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a company during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances excluding transactions resulting from investments from owners and distributions to owners. For the Company, comprehensive income for the periods presented includes net income and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Income taxes – The Company follows FASB ASC 740 when accounting for income taxes. Income taxes are provided on an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Current tax is based on the profit or loss from ordinary activities adjusted for items that are non-assessable or disallowable for income tax purpose and is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred income tax liabilities or assets are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and the financial reporting amounts at each year end. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Foreign currency transaction - The consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in United States Dollars (“US$”). Transactions in foreign currencies during the year are translated into US$ at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies on the balance sheet date are translated into US$ at the exchange rates prevailing on that date. All transaction differences are recorded in the income statement.

Foreign currency translation - Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries with a functional currency other than US$ are translated into US$ using period end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates in effect during the period. Foreign currency translation differences are included as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Stockholders’ Equity.

Post-retirement and post-employment benefits - The Company’s subsidiaries contribute to a state pension plan in respect of its PRC employees. Other than the above, neither the Company nor its subsidiary provides any other post-retirement or post-employment benefits.

Earnings Per Common Share - The Company follows FASB ASC 260-10, resulting in the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Diluted earnings per common share assumes that outstanding common shares were increased by shares issuable upon exercise of those stock warrants for which market price exceeds the exercise price, less shares that could have been purchased by the Company with related proceeds.

Use of estimates - The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the financial statements and related disclosure in the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The financial statements include some amounts that are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. The most significant estimates relate to warrants valuation, discount on convertible notes, debts issuance cost, allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, work in process inventory valuation, inventory obsolescence, depreciation, useful lives of property, plant and equipment, taxes, contingencies and employee benefit plans. These estimates may be adjusted as more current information becomes available and any adjustment could be significant. Estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined to be necessary.

29


Cost of goods sold - Cost of goods sold consists primarily of costs of raw materials, direct labor, depreciation of plant and machinery, and overhead associated with the manufacturing process.

Shipping and handling cost - Shipping and handling costs related to delivery of finished goods are included in other selling, general and administrative expenses. During the year ended October 31, 2009 and 2008, shipping and handling costs were $504,353 and $346,796, respectively.

Retained earnings-appropriated - In accordance with the relevant PRC regulations and the Company’s PRC subsidiaries’ articles of association, Tianjin Yayi, Weinan Milkgoat and Fuping Milkgoat are required to allocate their respective net income to statutory surplus reserve.

Statutory surplus reserve - In accordance with the relevant laws and regulations of the PRC and the articles of associations of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries, Tianjin Yayi, Weinan Milkgoat and Fuping Milkgoat are required to allocate 10% of their net income reported in the PRC statutory accounts, after offsetting any prior years’ losses, to the statutory surplus reserve, on an annual basis. When the balance of such reserve reaches 50% of the respective registered capital of the subsidiaries, any further allocation is optional.

The statutory surplus reserves can be used to offset prior years’ losses, if any, and may be converted into registered capital, provided that the remaining balances of the reserve after such conversion is not less than 25% of registered capital. The statutory surplus reserve is non-distributable.

Effects of Inflation

Inflation and changing prices have not had a material effect on our business and we do not expect that inflation or changing prices will materially affect our business in the foreseeable future. However, our management will closely monitor the price change and continually maintain effective cost control in operations.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to an investor in our securities.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Codification

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a standard that established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “ASC”), which effectively amended the hierarchy of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and established only two levels of GAAP, authoritative and non-authoritative. All previously existing accounting standard documents were superseded, and the ASC became the single source of authoritative, nongovernmental GAAP, except for rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the ASC became non-authoritative. The ASC was intended to provide access to the authoritative guidance related to a particular topic in one place. New guidance issued subsequent to June 30, 2009 will be communicated by the FASB through Accounting Standards Updates. The ASC was effective for financial statements for interim or annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009. We adopted and applied the provisions of the ASC for the Company’s fiscal year ended October 31, 2009, and have eliminated references to pre-ASC accounting standards throughout the consolidated financial statements. The adoption of the ASC did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

30


Subsequent Events

In May 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 855-10 on the treatment of subsequent events which is intended to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. Specifically, management of a reporting entity is required to evaluate subsequent events through the date that financial statements are issued and disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated, as well as the date the financial statements were issued. FASB ASC 855-10 was effective for fiscal years and interim periods ended after June 15, 2009, and must be applied prospectively. The Company adopted this standard in the quarter ended July 31, 2009. Subsequent events have been evaluated through February 12, 2010, the date the consolidated financial statements were issued as further discussed in this standard.

Fair Value and Other-Than-Temporary Impairments

In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 820 intended to provide additional application guidance and enhanced disclosures regarding fair value measurements and impairments of securities. FASB ASC 820 related to determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly provides additional guidelines for estimating fair value in accordance with pre-existing guidance on fair value measurements. FASB ASC 820 on recognition and presentation of other-than-temporary impairments provides additional guidance related to the disclosure of impairment losses on securities and the accounting for impairment losses on debt securities, but does not amend existing guidance related to other-than-temporary impairments of equity securities. FASB ASC 820 was effective for fiscal years and interim periods ended after June 15, 2009. As such, the Company adopted this guidance for the quarter ended July 31, 2009. Adoption of the FASB ASC 820 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Financial Instruments

In February 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC 825 which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. FASB ASC 825 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. FASB ASC 825 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company adopted this standard on November 1, 2008. It has not elected to measure any financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value which were not previously required to be measured at fair value. Therefore, the adoption of this standard has had no impact on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosure.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 825-10 to require disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments on an interim basis. Previously, this has been disclosed on an annual basis only. The Company adopted this standard for the quarter ended July 31, 2009. This standard has not impacted the Company’s consolidated balance sheets or income statements, as its requirements are disclosure-only in nature.

Fair Value Measurement

In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB ASC 820 related to fair value measurements. FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 820-10 which delayed the effective date of the fair value measurements and disclosures for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-05, "Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value" in relation to the fair value measurement of liabilities. The Company adopted the applicable portions of the provisions of the new standards as of November 1, 2008, and will adopt the provision related to the nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities on November 1, 2009. The adoption of this standard for financial assets and financial liabilities did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. Although the Company will continue to evaluate the application of the provision for the nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, the Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary – a Scope Clarification

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-02 update to address the accounting and reporting for Decreases in ownership of a subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and removes the potential conflict between guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity will be required to follow the amended guidance beginning in the period that it first adopts FASB ASC 810 (now included in Subtopic 810-10). For those entities that have already adopted FASB ASC 810, the amendments are effective at the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted FASB ASC 810. The Company does not expect the provisions of this standard to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company.

31


Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-01 update to address the accounting for distributions to shareholders with components of stock and cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on the amount of cash that will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260 for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and should be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company does not expect the provisions of this standard to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company.

Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt issuance or Other Financing

In October 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 470-20 update to address equity-classified share lending arrangements on an entity’s own shares, when executed in contemplation of a convertible debt offering or other financing. This accounting update addresses how to account for the share-lending arrangement and the effect, if any, that the loaned shares have on earnings-per-share calculations. The share lending arrangement is required to be measured at fair value and recognized as an issuance cost associated with the convertible debt offering or other financing. Earnings-per-share calculations would not be affected by the loaned shares unless the share borrower defaults on the arrangement and does not return the shares. If counterparty default is probable, the share lender is required to recognize an expense equal to the then fair value of the unreturned shares, net of the fair value of probable recoveries. FASB ASC 470-20 is effective for share lending agreements entered into after June 15, 2009, and effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning on or after December 15, 2009 for all other outstanding arrangements, with retrospective application to those arrangements on the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard upon its adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value

In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-05 update that amended the accounting standard for fair value measurements. Specifically, Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-05 update provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the following methods: 1) a valuation technique that uses a) the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or b) quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as assets and/or 2) a valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of the accounting standard on fair value measurements (e.g. an income approach or market approach). Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-05 also clarifies that when estimating the fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to adjust to include inputs relating to the existence of transfer restrictions on that liability. This standard will be effective for the first interim period beginning November 1, 2009. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Earnings per Share Calculation on Share-Based Payments

In June 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 260-10 that clarifies whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions should be included in computing earnings per share. Under this standard, the Company will be required to include restricted stock that contains non-forfeitable rights to dividends in the calculation of basic earnings per share ("EPS"), and will need to calculate basic EPS using the "two-class method." The two-class method of computing EPS is an earnings allocation formula that determines EPS for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. All prior period earnings per share information must be adjusted retrospectively. The Company will adopt this standard as of November 1, 2009; the Company does not currently have any share-based awards that would qualify as participating securities.

32


Convertible Debt Instruments

In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 470-20 related to convertible debt instruments. FASB ASC 470-20 requires the issuer of certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash (or other assets) on conversion, including partial cash settlement, to separately account for the liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer's non-convertible debt borrowing rate. FASB ASC 470-20 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning November 1, 2009, and retrospective application is required for all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this on its consolidated financial statements

Useful Life of Intangible Asset

In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 350-30 which amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset. FASB ASC 350-30 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is prohibited. Application of this standard is not currently applicable to the Company.

Noncontrolling Interests

In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC 810-10 on noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements. FASB ASC 810-10 changes the accounting and reporting for minority interests, which must be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and classified as a component of shareholders’ equity. This new consolidation method significantly changes the accounting for transactions with minority interest holders. FASB ASC 810-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements as the Company does not currently have noncontrolling interests.

Business Combination

In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC 805 which related to business combinations. FASB ASC 805 expands the definition of a business and a business combination; requires recognition of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and contingent consideration at their fair value on the acquisition date with subsequent changes recognized in earnings; requires acquisition-related expenses and restructuring costs to be recognized separately from the business combination and expensed as incurred; requires in-process research and development to be capitalized at fair value as an indefinite-lived intangible asset; and requires that changes in accounting for deferred tax asset valuation allowances and acquired income tax uncertainties after the measurement period be recognized as a component of provision for taxes. FASB ASC 805 also establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business combination. In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 805 which clarified the accounting for pre-acquisition contingencies. This standard is effective for the Company beginning November 1, 2009 and will change the accounting for business combinations on a prospective basis.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

ITEM 9A(T).     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, Ms. Li Liu and Ms. Tong Li, respectively, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports, such as this report, that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, Ms. Li Liu and Ms. Tong Li concluded that as of October 31, 2009 our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting for the period as disclosed below.

(b) Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Internal control over financial reporting refers to the process designed by, or under the supervision of, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and includes those policies and procedures that:

1) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
  
2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management and directors; and
  
3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management assessed our internal control over financial reporting as of October 31, 2009. Management's assessment of internal control over financial reporting was conducted using the criteria in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“ COSO”). Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting as of October 31, 2009 were not effective due to the following significant deficiencies:

1) Our internal audit function is significantly deficient due to insufficient qualified resources and appropriate system to perform such function. Therefore, our ability to prevent and control lapses and errors in our accounting function could not be rendered effectively.
  
2) Our current accounting staff is relatively inexperienced with respect to U.S. GAAP and needs substantial training to meet the higher demands of being a U.S. public company. The accounting skills and understanding necessary to fulfill the requirements of U.S. GAAP-based reporting, including the skills of subsidiary financial statements consolidation, are inadequate. The lack of sufficient and adequately trained accounting personnel resulted in an ineffective segregation of duties relative to key financial reporting functions.

34


In order to correct the foregoing significant deficiencies, we have taken and are taking the following remediation measures:

1) We have engaged a third party professional consultant, as announced on November 17, 2009, to assist us in assessing, improving and monitoring our internal control over financial reporting. We have been actively working with the external consultant to assess our data collection, financial reporting, and control procedures and to strengthen our internal controls over financial reporting.
  
2) We are committed to develop a comprehensive and risk-based internal audit function within the Company. Due to the scarcity of qualified candidates with extensive experience in U.S. GAAP reporting and accounting in the region, we have engaged an external professional consultancy firm to assist the management in developing the internal audit system. At the same time, we have enhanced our efforts to hire sufficient internal audit resources with assistance from recruiters and through referrals.
  
3) With the assistance from external consultancy firm, we are in the process of enhancing the overall accounting policy and arranging necessary training for our existing accounting staff on U.S. GAAP.

Our management is committed to improving our internal controls. We believe that the foregoing steps will remediate the significant deficiencies identified above, and we will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these steps and make any changes that our management deems appropriate to put effective controls in place.

Our management does not believe that these significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting had a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations or caused our financial statements for the fiscal year ended as of October 31, 2009 to contain a material misstatement.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

(c) Changes in internal control over financial reporting

We will regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new and more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.

Except as described above, during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended October 31, 2009, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect materially, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B.     OTHER INFORMATION.

We have no information to disclose that was required to be disclosed in a report on Form 8-K during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009, but was not reported.

There are no agreements or understandings for any of our executive officers or director to resign at the request of another person and no officer or director is acting on behalf of nor will any of them act at the direction of any other person.

Directors are elected until their successors are duly elected and qualified.

Board Composition and Committees

The board of directors is currently composed of five members, Ms. Li Liu, Mr. Feng Shek, Ms. Cili Yan, Mr. Kenneth Jue Lee and Mr. Gang Sheng. All Board action requires the approval of a majority of the directors in attendance at a meeting at which a quorum is present.

We currently do not have standing audit, nominating or compensation committees. Our board of directors handles the functions that would otherwise be handled by each of the committees. We intend, however, to establish an audit committee, a nominating committee and a compensation committee of the board of directors as soon as practicable. We envision that the audit committee will be primarily responsible for reviewing the services performed by our independent auditors, evaluating our accounting policies and our system of internal controls. The nominating committee would be primarily responsible for nominating directors and setting policies and procedures for the nomination of directors. The nominating committee would also be responsible for overseeing the creation and implementation of our corporate governance policies and procedures. The compensation committee will be primarily responsible for reviewing and approving our compensation and benefit policies, including compensation of executive officers.

Our board of directors has not made a determination as to whether any member of our board is an audit committee financial expert. Upon the establishment of an audit committee, the board will determine whether any of the directors qualify as an audit committee financial expert.

Family Relationships

Other than the relationship between Feng Shek and Li Liu as husband and wife, there is no family relationship among any of our officers or directors.

Section 16(A) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Under U.S. securities laws, directors, certain executive officers and persons holding more than 10% of our common stock must report their initial ownership of the common stock, and any changes in that ownership, to the SEC. The SEC has designated specific due dates for these reports. Based solely on our review of copies of such reports filed with the SEC by and written representations of our sole director and executive offers, we believe that our directors and executive offers filed the required reports pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Securities on time in 2009 fiscal year.

Code of Ethics

Our board of directors has adopted a code of ethics and business conduct that applies to members of our board of directors, officers and other employees. The code of ethics addresses, among other things, ethical conduct, conflicts of interest, compliance with laws, regulations and policies, including disclosure requirements under the federal securities laws, confidentiality, trading on inside information, and reporting of violations of the code. A copy of the code of ethics and business conduct has been filed as Exhibit 14 to our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB filed on March 31, 2008. We are in the process of building up the Company website. Once our website is available, we will make the code of ethics available on the website. Thereafter, any amendments or waivers to the code of ethics will be posted on our website within four business days of such amendment or waiver. Until such time, however, any amendments or waivers to our code of ethics will be filed with the SEC in a Current Report on Form 8-K.

YAYI INTERNATIONAL INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Yayi International Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Yayi International Inc. (“the Company”) as of October 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of October 31, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

1. Organization and Nature of Business

Yayi International, Inc (“Yayi International” or the “Company”), formerly known as Ardmore Holding Corporation or “Ardmore”, was originally organized under the laws of the state of Delaware in 1986 under the name of a predecessor corporation which engaged in a software development and consulting service business. During 2007 and 2006, Ardmore sold 875,000 post-stock split adjusted shares to Tryant, LLC, a then unrelated party, which represented over 85% of Ardmore’s outstanding shares. Subsequently, Ardmore's management decided to wind up all business operations related to the former products sold by the predecessor corporation. On April 16, 2007, the name of the predecessor corporation was changed to Ardmore Holding Corporation. From April 16, 2007 until June 6, 2008 when the Company completed a reverse acquisition transaction with Charleston Industrial Limited (“Charleston”), the Company was a blank check company and did not engage in active business operations other than its search for, and evaluation of, potential business opportunities for acquisition or participation. The Company changed its fiscal year from December 31 to October 31. The Company amended its articles of incorporation on September 12, 2008 and changed its name to Yayi International Inc.

On June 6, 2008, Ardmore, its wholly owned subsidiary, Ardmore Acquisition Corp. (“Ardmore Acquisition”), Charleston Industrial Ltd., (“Charleston”) and Tryant LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and at such time the holder of a majority of Ardmore’s outstanding shares of common stock, consummated a merger pursuant to which Ardmore Acquisition was merged into Charleston and Charleston became Ardmore’s wholly owned subsidiary. Charleston is the owner of Tianjin Yayi Industrial Co., Ltd. (“Tianjin Yayi”), an entity organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China and as a result of this merger, Ardmore became the owner of Tianjin Yayi. Pursuant to the merger, all 50,000 shares of Charleston’s stock were exchanged for 22,325,000 shares newly issued common stock of Ardmore. Accordingly, all references to shares of Charleston’s common stock and per share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the equivalent numbers of Ardmore shares. Charleston thereby became the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary and the former stockholders of Charleston became the Company’s controlling stockholders.

Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, the merger is considered to be a capital transaction in substance, rather than a business combination. That is, the merger is equivalent to the issuance of stock by Charleston for the net monetary assets of Ardmore, accompanied by a recapitalization, and is accounted for as a change in capital structure. Accordingly, the accounting for the merger will be identical to that resulting from a reverse acquisition, except that no goodwill will be recorded. Under reverse takeover accounting, the post reverse acquisition comparative historical financial statements of the legal acquirer, Ardmore, are those of the legal acquiree, Charleston and subsidiary, which are considered to be the accounting acquirer. The equity section of the accompanying consolidated financial statements has been restated to reflect the recapitalization of the Company due to the reverse acquisition as of the first day of the first period presented.

Charleston Industrial Limited

Charleston is a limited liability company organized under the laws of British Virgin Islands on October 31, 2007 in anticipation of a business combination with a U.S. reporting company.

On January 15, 2008, Charleston acquired Tianjin Yayi and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Weinan Milkgoat Production Co., Limited (“Weinan Milkgoat”). Under the terms of the merger agreement, all stockholders of Tianjin Yayi are entitled to receive a dividend from Charleston in the amount of RMB30,500,000 (equivalent to $4,468,250) for all of the shares of Tianjin Yayi. Since the ownership of Charleston and Tianjin Yayi are substantially the same, the merger was accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control, whereby Charleston recognized the assets and liabilities of Tianjin Yayi transferred at their carrying amounts. The consolidated financial statements have been restated for all periods prior to the merger to include the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the commonly controlled companies.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued

Credit risk - The Company may be exposed to credit risk from its cash at bank, fixed deposits, and bills and accounts receivable. Bills and accounts receivable are subjected to credit evaluations. An allowance has been made for estimated irrecoverable amounts determined by reference to past default experience and the current economic environment.

Cash and cash equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash accounts, interest bearing savings accounts and time certificates of deposit with a maturity of three months or less when purchased.

Inventory - Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market, determined by the weighted average method. Work-in-progress and finished goods inventories consist of raw materials, direct labor and overhead associated with the manufacturing process.

Trade accounts receivable - Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from balances outstanding at the period end.

Outstanding account balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Allowances for doubtful accounts receivable balances are recorded when circumstances indicate that collection is doubtful for particular accounts receivable or as a general reserve for all accounts receivable. Management estimates such allowances based on historical evidence such as amounts that are subject to risk. Accounts receivable are written off if reasonable collection efforts are not successful.

Based on management’s evaluation of historical experience, the following policy for allowance of doubtful accounts is established:

Trade and other receivables due: % of Balance
                   Within 90 days:                                                       1.5%
                   Between 91 and 180 days:                                                       5.0%
                   Between 181 and 360 days:                                                       20.0%
                   Between 361 and 720 days:                                                       50.0%
                   Over 721 days:                                                       100.0%

Livestock – Livestock consists of goats for milk production and for breeding purposes. The livestock is depreciated according to its estimated useful lives, which is 5 years for male goats and 7 years for female goats. The cost of raising the young goat is allocated to livestock and depreciation starts upon reaching maturity 13 months from date of birth. Not all young goats survive to maturity or disposition. Normal losses of young goats are not expensed directly but allocated to the surviving young goats. When abnormal losses of young goats occur, the accumulated costs of young goats lost are written off in the period in which the abnormal losses occur.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments – FASB ASC 820-10 requires disclosing fair value to the extent practicable for financial instruments that are recognized or unrecognized in the balance sheet. The fair value of the financial instruments disclosed herein is not necessarily representative of the amount that could be realized or settled, nor does the fair value amount consider the tax consequences of realization or settlement.

For certain financial instruments, including cash, accounts and other receivables, accounts payable, short-term loans, accruals and other payables, it was assumed that the carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the near term maturities of such obligations. The carrying amounts of long-term loans payable approximate fair value since the interest rate associated with the debt approximates the current market interest rate.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued

Property, plant and equipment-Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost including the cost of improvements. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Assets under construction are not depreciated until construction is completed and the assets are ready for their intended use. Depreciation and amortization are provided on the straight-line method based on the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or lease term as follows:

Leasehold improvement Lesser of term of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the assets
Plant and machinery 10 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment 5 years
Motor vehicles 5 years

Recoverability of Long Lived Assets -The Company follows FASB ASC 360. Long-lived assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company is not aware of any events or circumstances that indicate the existence of impairment, which would be material to the Company’s financial statements.

Goodwill - Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination, In accordance with FASB ASC 350-30, goodwill is no longer subject to amortization. Rather, goodwill will be subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment, applying a fair-value based test fair value is generally determined using a discounted cash flow analysis.

Revenue recognition - The Company recognizes revenue on product sales when products are delivered and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, collection of the relevant receivable is probable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and the sales price is fixed or determinable. Net sales of products represent the invoiced value of goods, net of value added taxes (“VAT”), sales returns, trade discounts and allowances. The Company is subject to VAT which is levied on majority of the Company’s products at the rate of 17% on the invoiced value of sales. Output VAT is borne by customers in addition to the invoiced value of sales and input VAT is borne by the Company in addition to the invoiced value of purchases to the extent not refunded for export sales. Input VAT paid is recoverable from output VAT charged to customers.

Prior to January 1, 2009, the Company allows for exchange of goods that are near expiration. The Company provided for an allowance for return products since the Company has experienced returns in the normal course of business. Subsequent to January 1, 2009, the Company revised its sales contracts to disallow returns for sales made after January 1, 2009.

Research and development - Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses amounted to $150,101 and $111,309 for the year ended October 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Advertising and promotion costs - Costs incurred in direct-response advertising are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the duration of the advertising campaign. As of October 31, 2009, there was no capitalized direct-response advertising. All other advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising and promotion costs amounted to $1,956,512 and $1,723,569 for the year ended October 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Comprehensive income - The Company follows FASB ASC 220-10 in reporting comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a company during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances excluding transactions resulting from investments from owners and distributions to owners. For the Company, comprehensive income for the periods presented includes net income and foreign currency translation adjustments.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued

Income taxes – The Company follows FASB ASC 740 when accounting for income taxes. Income taxes are provided on an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Current tax is based on the profit or loss from ordinary activities adjusted for items that are non-assessable or disallowable for income tax purpose and is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred income tax liabilities or assets are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and the financial reporting amounts at each year end. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Foreign currency transaction - The consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in United States Dollars (“US$”). Transactions in foreign currencies during the year are translated into US$ at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies on the balance sheet date are translated into US$ at the exchange rates prevailing on that date. All transaction differences are recorded in the income statement.

Foreign currency translation - Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries with a functional currency other than US$ are translated into US$ using period end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates in effect during the period. Foreign currency translation differences are included as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Stockholders’ Equity.

Post-retirement and post-employment benefits - The Company’s subsidiaries contribute to a state pension plan in respect of its PRC employees. Other than the above, neither the Company nor its subsidiary provides any other post-retirement or post-employment benefits.

Earnings Per Common Share - The Company follows FASB ASC 260-10, resulting in the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Diluted earnings per common share assumes that outstanding common shares were increased by shares issuable upon exercise of those stock warrants for which market price exceeds the exercise price, less shares that could have been purchased by the Company with related proceeds.

Use of estimates - The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the financial statements and related disclosure in the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The financial statements include some amounts that are based on management’s best estimates and judgments. The most significant estimates relate to warrants valuation, discount on convertible notes, debts issuance cost, allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable, work in process inventory valuation, inventory obsolescence, depreciation, useful lives of property, plant and equipment, taxes, contingencies and employee benefit plans. These estimates may be adjusted as more current information becomes available and any adjustment could be significant. Estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined to be necessary.

Cost of goods sold - Cost of goods sold consists primarily of costs of raw materials, direct labor, depreciation of plant and machinery, and overhead associated with the manufacturing process.

Shipping and handling cost - Shipping and handling costs related to delivery of finished goods are included in other selling, general and administrative expenses. During the year ended October 31, 2009 and 2008, shipping and handling costs were $504,353 and $346,796, respectively.

Retained earnings-appropriated - In accordance with the relevant PRC regulations and the Company’s PRC subsidiaries’ articles of association, Tianjin Yayi, Weinan Milkgoat and Fuping Milkgoat are required to allocate their respective net income to statutory surplus reserve.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued

Statutory surplus reserve - In accordance with the relevant laws and regulations of the PRC and the articles of associations of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries, Tianjin Yayi, Weinan Milkgoat and Fuping Milkgoat are required to allocate 10% of their net income reported in the PRC statutory accounts, after offsetting any prior years’ losses, to the statutory surplus reserve, on an annual basis. When the balance of such reserve reaches 50% of the respective registered capital of the subsidiaries, any further allocation is optional.

The statutory surplus reserves can be used to offset prior years’ losses, if any, and may be converted into registered capital, provided that the remaining balances of the reserve after such conversion is not less than 25% of registered capital. The statutory surplus reserve is non-distributable.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Codification

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a standard that established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “ASC”), which effectively amended the hierarchy of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and established only two levels of GAAP, authoritative and non-authoritative. All previously existing accounting standard documents were superseded, and the ASC became the single source of authoritative, nongovernmental GAAP, except for rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the ASC became non-authoritative. The ASC was intended to provide access to the authoritative guidance related to a particular topic in one place. New guidance issued subsequent to June 30, 2009 will be communicated by the FASB through Accounting Standards Updates. The ASC was effective for financial statements for interim or annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009. We adopted and applied the provisions of the ASC for the Company’s fiscal year ended October 31, 2009, and have eliminated references to pre-ASC accounting standards throughout the consolidated financial statements. The adoption of the ASC did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Subsequent Events

In May 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 855-10 on the treatment of subsequent events which is intended to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. Specifically, management of a reporting entity is required to evaluate subsequent events through the date that financial statements are issued and disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated, as well as the date the financial statements were issued. FASB ASC 855-10 was effective for fiscal years and interim periods ended after June 15, 2009, and must be applied prospectively. The Company adopted this standard in the quarter ended July 31, 2009. Subsequent events have been evaluated through February 12, 2010, the date the consolidated financial statements were issued as further discussed in this standard.

Fair Value and Other-Than-Temporary Impairments

In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 820 intended to provide additional application guidance and enhanced disclosures regarding fair value measurements and impairments of securities. FASB ASC 820 related to determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly provides additional guidelines for estimating fair value in accordance with pre-existing guidance on fair value measurements. FASB ASC 820 on recognition and presentation of other-than-temporary impairments provides additional guidance related to the disclosure of impairment losses on securities and the accounting for impairment losses on debt securities, but does not amend existing guidance related to other-than-temporary impairments of equity securities. FASB ASC 820 was effective for fiscal years and interim periods ended after June 15, 2009. As such, the Company adopted this guidance for the quarter ended July 31, 2009. Adoption of the FASB ASC 820 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Financial Instruments

In February 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC 825 which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. FASB ASC 825 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. FASB ASC 825 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company adopted this standard on November 1, 2008. It has not elected to measure any financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value which were not previously required to be measured at fair value. Therefore, the adoption of this standard has had no impact on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosure.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 825-10 to require disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments on an interim basis. Previously, this has been disclosed on an annual basis only. The Company adopted this standard for the quarter ended July 31, 2009. This standard has not impacted the Company’s consolidated balance sheets or income statements, as its requirements are disclosure-only in nature.

Fair Value Measurement

In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB ASC 820 related to fair value measurements. FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 820-10 which delayed the effective date of the fair value measurements and disclosures for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-05, "Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value" in relation to the fair value measurement of liabilities. The Company adopted the applicable portions of the provisions of the new standards as of November 1, 2008, and will adopt the provision related to the nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities on November 1, 2009. The adoption of this standard for financial assets and financial liabilities did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. Although the Company will continue to evaluate the application of the provision for the nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, the Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary – a Scope Clarification

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-02 update to address the accounting and reporting for Decreases in ownership of a subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and removes the potential conflict between guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity will be required to follow the amended guidance beginning in the period that it first adopts FASB ASC 810 (now included in Subtopic 810-10). For those entities that have already adopted FASB ASC 810, the amendments are effective at the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted FASB ASC 810. The Company does not expect the provisions of this standard to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company.

Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-01 update to address the accounting for distributions to shareholders with components of stock and cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on the amount of cash that will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260 for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and should be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company does not expect the provisions of this standard to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company.

Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt issuance or Other Financing

In October 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 470-20 update to address equity-classified share lending arrangements on an entity’s own shares, when executed in contemplation of a convertible debt offering or other financing. This accounting update addresses how to account for the share-lending arrangement and the effect, if any, that the loaned shares have on earnings-per-share calculations. The share lending arrangement is required to be measured at fair value and recognized as an issuance cost associated with the convertible debt offering or other financing. Earnings-per-share calculations would not be affected by the loaned shares unless the share borrower defaults on the arrangement and does not return the shares. If counterparty default is probable, the share lender is required to recognize an expense equal to the then fair value of the unreturned shares, net of the fair value of probable recoveries. FASB ASC 470-20 is effective for share lending agreements entered into after June 15, 2009, and effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning on or after December 15, 2009 for all other outstanding arrangements, with retrospective application to those arrangements on the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard upon its adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued

Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value

In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-05 update that amended the accounting standard for fair value measurements. Specifically, Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-05 update provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the following methods: 1) a valuation technique that uses a) the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or b) quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as assets and/or 2) a valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of the accounting standard on fair value measurements (e.g. an income approach or market approach). Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2009-05 also clarifies that when estimating the fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to adjust to include inputs relating to the existence of transfer restrictions on that liability. This standard will be effective for the first interim period beginning November 1, 2009. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Earnings per Share Calculation on Share-Based Payments

In June 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 260-10 that clarifies whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions should be included in computing earnings per share. Under this standard, the Company will be required to include restricted stock that contains non-forfeitable rights to dividends in the calculation of basic earnings per share ("EPS"), and will need to calculate basic EPS using the "two-class method." The two-class method of computing EPS is an earnings allocation formula that determines EPS for each class of common stock and participating securities according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. All prior period earnings per share information must be adjusted retrospectively. The Company will adopt this standard as of November 1, 2009; the Company does not currently have any share-based awards that would qualify as participating securities.

Convertible Debt Instruments

In May 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 470-20 related to convertible debt instruments. FASB ASC 470-20 requires the issuer of certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash (or other assets) on conversion, including partial cash settlement, to separately account for the liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer's non-convertible debt borrowing rate. FASB ASC 470-20 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning November 1, 2009, and retrospective application is required for all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this on its consolidated financial statements

Useful Life of Intangible Asset

In April 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 350-30 which amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset. FASB ASC 350-30 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is prohibited. Application of this standard is not currently applicable to the Company.

Noncontrolling Interests

In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC 810-10 on noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements. FASB ASC 810-10 changes the accounting and reporting for minority interests, which must be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and classified as a component of shareholders’ equity. This new consolidation method significantly changes the accounting for transactions with minority interest holders. FASB ASC 810-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements as the Company does not currently have noncontrolling interests.

Business Combination

In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC 805 which related to business combinations. FASB ASC 805 expands the definition of a business and a business combination; requires recognition of assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and contingent consideration at their fair value on the acquisition date with subsequent changes recognized in earnings; requires acquisition-related expenses and restructuring costs to be recognized separately from the business combination and expensed as incurred; requires in-process research and development to be capitalized at fair value as an indefinite-lived intangible asset; and requires that changes in accounting for deferred tax asset valuation allowances and acquired income tax uncertainties after the measurement period be recognized as a component of provision for taxes. FASB ASC 805 also establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business combination. In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 805 which clarified the accounting for pre-acquisition contingencies. This standard is effective for the Company beginning November 1, 2009 and will change the accounting for business combinations on a prospective basis.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of October 31, 2009 and 2008 was $2,195,000 and $1,727,700. The change in the total valuation allowance for the years ended October 31, 2009 and 2008 was an increase of $467,300 and an increase of $1,719,100. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the net operating losses and temporary differences become deductible. Management considered projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. At October 31, 2009, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards for United States Federal and State income tax purposes of approximately $3,351,000 (the “NOL carry forwards-US”), which were available to offset future US taxable income, if any, through 2029. At October 31, 2009, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards, associated with its subsidiaries Weinan Milkgoat, Fuping Milkgoat and Shaanxi Milkgoat, for PRC income tax purposes of approximately $399,000 (the “NOL carry forwards – China”), which are available to offset future PRC taxable income, if any, until it is fully offset against future taxable income subject to the approval of the Chinese tax authority. Based upon the uncertainty of future US taxable income, the limited operating histories of its subsidiaries, Weinan Milkgoat, Fuping Milkgoat, and Shaanxi Milkgoat, and these subsidiaries’ losses incurred to date, management has fully reserved the deferred tax asset associated with the warrant expense and NOL carry forwards for US and PRC income tax purposes.

13. Merger and Offering

Series B Warrants

On June 6, 2008, in consideration for introducing Ardmore to Tianjin Yayi, Ardmore issued to Grand Orient Fortune Investment Ltd., a British Virgin Islands limited liability company and its designees (collectively, “Grand Orient”) an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of the Company common stock, valued at $2,200,000 (based on the stock price on June 6, 2008, the date of issuance) and Series B Warrants to acquire 2,148,148 shares of Ardmore’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.08 per share, valued at $1,144,743, fair value. The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the grant-date fair value of the warrant with the following assumptions: no dividend yield, expected volatility of 70.31%, and a risk-free interest rate of 2.73% . In determining volatility of the Company’s warrant, the Company used the average volatility of the Company’s stock. These warrants are considered to be indexed to the Company’s own stock accordance with Emerging Issue Task Force (“EITF”) No. 01-6. These warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis and may be exercised through June 2011. The exercise price of these warrants and the number of shares issuable upon their exercise is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events. Grand Orient was granted piggyback registration rights with respect to these shares and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Series B Warrants. The fair value of the common stock and Series B Warrants was expensed as merger costs.

Cancellation of shares and Issuance of Series C Warrants

In connection with this merger, on June 6, 2008, Ardmore entered into an indemnification agreement with Tryant, LLC, pursuant to which Tryant agreed to the cancellation of 325,198 shares of common stock it owned and agreed to, among other things, indemnify Ardmore for one year for breaches of representations and warranties in the merger agreement. In exchange, Ardmore (i) paid Tryant an aggregate of $200,000 (excluding $50,000 that had been previously paid by Charleston and expensed in merger costs), (ii) issued Tryant a note in principal amount of $250,000 (which matured and was paid in August 2008), and (iii) issued Tryant and its designees, Series C Warrants, exercisable on a cashless basis to acquire through June 2011, an aggregate of 185,185 shares of Ardmore common stock at an exercise price of $1.35 per share, valued at $86,367, fair value. The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon exercise of these warrants is subject to specified anti-dilution adjustments. Tryant and its designees were granted piggyback rights with respect to the shares of the Company’s common stock it owned prior to these transactions and the shares issuable upon exercise of these Series C Warrants. This transaction in the total amount of $536,367 is reflected as cancellation of common stock.

Convertible Promissory Note and Issuance of Series A Warrants

Contemporaneously with, and as a condition to, the completion of the merger, Ardmore issued 52 units for an aggregate purchase price of $1,300,000. Each unit consisted of: (i) an 8% convertible promissory note in principal amount of $25,000 and (ii) Ardmore’s Series A Warrants. Interest on these notes is payable at maturity, the notes mature in December 2009, are unsecured and are convertible, at the holder’s option, into the Company common stock at a conversion price of $1.08. The Series A Warrants included in each unit are exercisable (under specified circumstances, on a cashless basis) through June 2011 (subject to extension if, under specified circumstances, the underlying shares are not registered for resale) to acquire 11,575 shares of Ardmore’s common stock at an exercise price equal to the lesser of $1.35 and the Next Round Value. The term “Next Round Value” means the per share dollar value of the securities issued by Ardmore in the first private placement that is effected after the merger, such dollar value to be equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate purchase price of the securities sold in such private placement and the denominator of which is the number of shares of common stock (including and after giving effect to the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of the securities issued or issuable in such private placement, determined as of the date of the first closing of such private placement), issued in such private placement. The convertible notes and Series A Warrants provide for anti-dilution adjustments upon the occurrence of specified events.

The Series A Warrants that were issued with the convertible notes gave the holders the right to purchase an aggregate of 601,900 shares of Ardmore’s common stock. These warrants were valued at $280,726, fair value, and in accordance with EITF No. 00-19, the warrants were classified as equity. The fair value was based on the Black Scholes. In determining volatility of the Company’s warrant, the Company used the average volatility of the Company’s stock. The value of these warrants was recorded as a discount on the convertible notes. The conversion option is deemed to be an embedded derivative which is classified as equity under EITF 00-19. The intrinsic value of this embedded derivative is $304,800 and is recorded as a discount on the convertible notes. The original face amount of the convertible notes of $1,300,000 was reduced by the value of the warrants issued ($280,726) and the intrinsic value of the embedded derivative ($304,800), resulting in an initial carrying value of $714,474.

The convertible notes are being accreted to their maturity value of $1,300,000 using the interest method and an effective monthly rate of 5.22% . The unamortized amount as of October 31, 2009 is $72,542.

Convertible Promissory Note and Issuance of Series A Warrants

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement with the purchasers of these units, Ardmore agreed to register the resale of the shares of common stock underlying the notes and Series A Warrants. Generally, if Ardmore fails, subject to specified exceptions, to comply with certain of its obligations under this agreement, Ardmore may be required to pay the investors, as of the date of such failure and each monthly anniversary of such failure, partial liquidated damages equal to 1.5% of the purchase price paid by them for any unregistered securities held by them that are required to be registered; provided, however, that (i) Ardmore will not be liable for liquidated damages in excess of 1.5% of the aggregate purchase price in any 30 day period and (ii) the maximum amount payable to each purchaser shall not exceed 20% of their purchase price. Ardmore did not file a registration statement by July 21, 2008, as required by the agreement. On November 24, 2009, the Company and Investors entered into a Settlement Agreement (the "Settlement Agreement") to settle the Company’s obligations under the promissory notes, the Series A Warrants and the Registration Rights Agreement, (Note 22).

Series D Warrants and Placement Agent Fee

Ardmore paid the placement agent an aggregate of approximately $104,000 in commissions and approximately $21,000 for expenses for its services in the offering. Ardmore also issued the placement agent and its designees Series D Warrants (which generally have the same terms as the Series A Warrants) to acquire an aggregate of 144,448 shares of common stock. The Series D Warrants were valued at $67,368, fair value. Of the total placement agent expense of $192,368, $150,082 was allocated to debt issuance costs and the remaining $41,540 of advisory cost was recorded as an expense. The debt issuance costs are amortized by the interest method over the term of the convertible notes.

For the years ended October 31, 2009 and 2008, amortization of debt issuance costs and accretion of debt discount from the warrants and embedded derivatives issued in respect of the merger on June 6, 2008 (“merger”) totaled $487,821 and $157,304, respectively.

Each series of warrants issued in respect of the merger were valued using a Black-Scholes model. The following assumptions were used to calculate the fair value of these warrants: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 70.31%, risk-free interest rate of 2.73%, expected life of 3 years, and stock price of $1.10 per share with exercise price of $1.08 -$1.35 per share.

Tianjin Mengyang is responsible for renovation of the building. As of July 31, 2009, the Company had advanced a total of $4,178,061 (equivalent to RMB 28,570,000) to Tianjin Mengyang in connection with this agreement. There is a 3% penalty payable to Tianjin Mengyang for funds not paid by the Company according to schedule and a 3% penalty payable to the Company by Tianjin Mengyang on the uncompleted portion of the total consideration if the project is not completed and handed over to the Company for use by September 30, 2008. Due to the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the Tianjin city government temporarily discontinued all existing construction projects; therefore, the estimated completion date of project has been postponed to December 31, 2009. It was agreed between both parties in a supplementary agreement signed on October 12, 2008 that no penalty would be charged to each other for this delay. Due to the freezing weather, the estimated completion date is further delayed to March 31, 2010. 50% of the remaining balance, $78,238 (RMB535,000) is due upon receiving the certificate of house property.

The Company also advanced $342,200 (equivalent to RMB2,340,000) to Tianjin Mengyang for interior renovation of the building. The remaining $342,200 is to be paid upon inspection of the completed renovation project. The remaining balance is scheduled to be paid in March, 2010.

18. Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock – Continued

The Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock is not redeemable currently and it is not probable that it will become redeemable; therefore subsequent adjustment to the Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock’s redemption amount is not necessary until it is probable that the Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock will become redeemable. Based on management’s future projection of earnings per share and considering P/E ratio of similar companies in the dairy industry, management believes it is probable that the Company will be able to maintain a closing market price of no less than $4.25 per share of common stock for 30 consecutive trading days. In addition, the Company is currently working on complying with the NASDAQ listing requirements. The Company believes it is probable that the qualified events, as defined above, will occur. As such, it is not probable that the Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock will become redeemable and hence no accretion to redemption value was made.

In accordance with FASB’s accounting standard, the Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock is classified outside of permanent equity because the occurrence of the qualified events are not solely within the control of the Company. In accordance with FASB’s accounting standard, the issuance costs of $735,129 are netted against the Private Placement of the Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock.
