PART I
 
ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
 
As shown in the organizational chart below, we operate under a holding company structure and currently have one direct operating subsidiary, Linkwell Tech Group Inc. (“Linkwell Tech”), a Florida corporation, of which we own 90%. On February 15, 2008, Linkwell Tech sold 10% of its issued and outstanding capital stock to Ecolab Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Ecolab”). Linkwell Tech owns 100% of Shanghai LiKang Disinfectant High-Tech Company, Limited (“LiKang Disinfectant”). We regard LiKang Disinfectant's business of hospital disinfectant products as our primary business. On March 5, 2009, LiKang Disinfectant purchased 100% of LiKang Biological for approximately $291,792 (Renminbi “RMB” 2,000,000) and 500,000 shares of our common stock, par value at $0.0005 per share (“Common Stock”).
 
Our Company, through LiKang Disinfectant, is engaged in the development, manufacture, sale and distribution of disinfectant health care products primarily to the medical industry in China. We have a national marketing and sales presence throughout all twenty-two provinces, as well as four autonomous regions, and four municipalities in China. We currently employ 27 full-time sales and marketing employees based in Shanghai. Shanghai ZhongYou Pharmaceutical High-Tech Co., Ltd (“ZhongYou Pharmaceutical”) also sells our products using 68 independent sales representatives in China.
 
While we market our products to the medical industry in China, we are also making efforts to diversify and expand our products to reach the retail markets. We have made efforts to grow our customer base by expanding into hotels, schools, supermarkets, and drugstores. Currently we offer a variety of disinfectant products for the following applications:
 
 
·
Skin and mucous membrane disinfectants;
     
 
·
Hand disinfectants (external);
     
 
·
Environment and surface disinfectants;
     
 
·
Medical device and equipment disinfectants;

As of December 31, 2011
 
Organizational Chart
 
 
Industry Background
 
According to the China Federation of Industrial Economics, China’s disinfectant industry is estimated to be well over $6.5 billion annually. The disinfectant industry in China may be characterized as an emerging industry, populated by approximately 1,000 small domestic manufacturers and distributors, and half a dozen large international companies with limited presence and products.
 
Major contributing factors to the vigor of China’s disinfectant industry growth include the transition to a market economy, increasing health consciousness among the general population and increasing government health standards and educational efforts.
 
Increasing Domestic Demand
 
Since the shift to a market economy, the Chinese government has initiated several policies to improve public health and living standards and improve the Chinese healthcare industry. These initiatives and traditional market forces have contributed an increased demand for disinfectant products. After nearly 30 years of sustained economic growth in China, both the Chinese government and the public have become more concerned about the quality and cost of healthcare in China. A greater public awareness of the health benefits of our products, as well as growing public concern have led to a surge in interest for disinfectant products in China, with consumers maintaining stockpiles of disinfectant products. Other factors supporting the growth in demand for disinfectant products in China include:
 
· Infectious diseases, such as SARS, H1N1, AIDS, Super Bacteria and other contagious diseases including cholera, tuberculosis;
· Healthcare professionals and citizens wanting a healthcare system and hygienic standards as advanced as western countries;
· Ongoing government reforms in hospital sanitation, medical standards and disinfectant regulations;
· Government educational programs designed to increase public awareness of public health and hygiene standards; and
· An increase in government investment in healthcare and medical services to achieve sustainable development of the disinfectant industry.

SARS - Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome
 
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), which is a viral respiratory illness caused by a corona virus, called SARS-associated corona virus (SARS-CoV), was first reported in Asia in November 2002. Over the next few months, the illness spread to more than two dozen countries in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia before the SARS global outbreak of 2003 was contained. In April 2004, the Chinese Ministry of Health reported several new cases of possible SARS outbreaks in Beijing and the Anhui Province, which is located in east-central China.
 
According to the Center for Disease Control of the central government of China, the common manner in which SARS appears to spread is by close person-to-person contact. The virus that causes SARS is thought to be transmitted most readily by respiratory droplets (“droplet spread”) when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Droplet spread occurs as germs from the cough or sneeze of an infected person are propelled a short distance (generally up to three feet) through the air and deposited on the mucous membranes of the mouth, nose, or eyes of nearby persons. The virus also can spread when a person touches a surface or object contaminated with infectious droplets and then touches his or her mouth, nose, or eye(s). Ultimately, there is much the global community does not know about SARS, and it is possible that the SARS virus might spread more broadly through the air (airborne spread) or by other ways that are not yet known.
 
Avian Influenza
 
In 2005, the threat of a global pandemic as a result of the avian flu began to capture the attention of the global community. The avian flu is a type of the A strain influenza virus that infects birds. Typically, it is not common for humans to be infected with the virus via contact with birds, however, a few bird-to-human outbreaks have been reported and most have occurred in Asia. Humans were infected when they came into contact with sick birds or contaminated surfaces. In most cases, infected persons reported flu-like symptoms, but some had more serious complications, including pneumonia and acute respiratory distress. The avian flu has led to increased concerns for improved health conditions.

Leading up to February 5, 2009, there were 405 confirmed cases of highly pathogenic bird flu reported throughout the world that resulted in 254 deaths. Within China, there were 11 confirmed cases resulting in eight deaths during 2008.
 
H1N1
 
HINI is an influenza virus that had never been identified as a cause of infections in people before the 2009 H1N1 pandemic. Genetic analyses of this virus have shown that it originated from animal influenza viruses and is unrelated to the human seasonal H1N1 viruses that have been in general circulation among people since 1977.
 
Antigenic analysis has shown that antibodies to the seasonal H1N1 virus do not protect against the pandemic H1N1 virus. However, other studies have shown that a significant percentage of people age 65 and older do have some immunity against the pandemic virus. This suggests that some people in older age groups may have some cross protection from exposure to viruses that have circulated in the more distant past.

Unlike typical seasonal flu patterns, the new virus caused high levels of summer infections in the northern hemisphere, and then even higher levels of activity during cooler months in this part of the world. After early outbreaks in North America in April 2009, the H1N1 influenza virus spread rapidly around the world.
 
The H1N1 virus also led to patterns of death and illness not normally seen in influenza infections. Most of the deaths caused by the pandemic influenza occurred among younger people, including those who were otherwise healthy. Pregnant women, younger children and people of any age with certain chronic lung or other medical conditions appeared to be at higher risk of more complicated or severe illness. Many of the severe cases were due to viral pneumonia, which is harder to treat than bacterial pneumonias usually associated with seasonal influenza. Many of these patients required intensive care.
 
H1N1 flu viruses are spread mainly from person to person through coughing or sneezing. Sometimes people may become infected by touching an item with the H1N1 virus on it and then touching their eyes, mouth, or nose. Providing sufficient facilities for hand washing and alcohol-based hand sanitizers in common workplace areas such as lobbies, corridors, and restrooms can reduce the chance of spread of the H1N1 virus. Studies have shown that the virus can survive on environmental surfaces and can infect a person for up to 2-8 hours after being deposited on the surface. Disinfecting commonly touched hard surfaces in the workplace, such as work stations, counter tops, door knobs, and bathroom surfaces by wiping them down with disinfectant can reduce the chance of spread of the H1N1 virus.
 
China Health Standards
 
In July 2002, the Chinese Ministry of Health issued the 27th order of Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China, establishing national standards for the disinfection industry. The first criterion of the new order stipulated that disinfectant manufacturers in China must obtain a license to manufacture hygiene disinfectants. Secondly, prior to release, all disinfectant instruments must obtain the official hygiene permit document of both the local provincial hygiene administrative department and the Ministry of Public Health.
 
In June 2009, the Chinese Ministry of Health issued the Hygiene Standard of Manufacturers of Disinfection Products (2009) (“Hygiene Standard”) which updated the 2004 version. It specified plant layout, hygiene requirements for workplaces, requirements for production equipment, materials, warehouse and workers. The Hygiene Standard went into effect on January 1, 2010 and restricted market access for certain small disinfectant companies due to the high Good Manufacturing Practice (“GMP”) standard, which should prove to be beneficial for the normalization of the disinfectant market.

Customers
 
We sell our products on a wholesale and retail basis to the medical community in China. We have more than 6,000 active and recurring customers, including hospitals, clinics, health centers, medical suppliers, and distribution companies throughout China. We maintain over 20 distribution contracts with wholesale dealers and agents in China. We generally offer our customers payment terms of four to six months to complete payment. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, sales to ZhongYou Pharmaceutical represented approximately 54.68% of our total net revenues.
 
Manufacturing
 
We operate two production facilities in Shanghai, one located in the Shanghai Jiading district and one located in the Shanghai Jinshan district. Products are manufactured primarily in liquid, tablet, and powder form. Approximately 99.7% of our revenue for the 2011 fiscal year was derived from products manufactured in these two factories.
 
The Shanghai Jiading district factory is approximately 21,500 square feet, all of which is used for production. The main products produced at the Shanghai Jiading district factory are liquid and index disinfectant devices. This manufacturing facility has the capacity to produce approximately 9 million liters of liquid disinfectant annually. The manufacturing cycle for the liquids, from formulation to finished product, is one day.
 
The Shanghai Jinshan district factory is approximately 4,300 square feet and is used in the manufacture of the tablet and powder forms of our disinfectants. The manufacturing capacity of this facility is 300 metric tons of tablet and 180 metric tons of powder disinfectant annually. The average manufacturing cycle for the tablets and powder, from formulation to finished product, is one day.
 
During the 2007 fiscal year, following GMP certification for both the factory and the equipment, we began utilizing the services of LiKang Biological, a related party, to manufacture some of our products including our An'erdian and Dian'erkang lines of disinfectants. On March 25, 2008, Linkwell Tech purchased 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of LiKang Biological.
 
We have found in our experience that products manufactured at GMP certified facilities utilizing GMP certified equipment can be sold at higher prices than similar products manufactured at non-GMP certified facilities. While GMP certified products cost more to produce, we are able to increase our selling prices proportionally. Our product packaging varies to meet different needs of the market. We package our liquid and gel disinfectants in popular sizes ranging from 40 ml to 5 liters. We package tablets in 50 tablet, 100 tablet and 200 tablet bottles. Finally, we package our powder disinfectants in 250 gram and 500 gram containers.

We maintain an inventory of finished products equal to approximately 1 month of average sales. Currently, we are manufacturing at about 50% of full capacity based upon our current product demand, and we have the ability to increase to full capacity if demand increases.
 
We have an in-house fulfillment and distribution operation, which is used to manage our supply chain, beginning with the placement of an order and continuing through order processing, packaging and shipping the products to each customer. We maintain inventory and fill customer orders from both the Jiading factory and the Jinshan factory.
 
Raw Materials
 
We purchase raw materials from six primary suppliers, and we have signed purchase contracts with these suppliers in an effort to ensure a steady supply of raw materials. We have maintained stable business relations with these suppliers for over 10 years, and we believe that our relationships with these primary suppliers will remain stable. In the event that these relationships falter, there are many other suppliers with the capability to supply our raw material needs. We purchase raw materials on payment terms of 30 days to three months. Some of the suppliers import from foreign countries, as listed below, and we purchase directly from these suppliers.

Customer Service and Support
 
We believe that a high level of customer service and support is critical in retaining and expanding our customer base. Customer care representatives participate in ongoing training programs under the supervision of our training managers. These training sessions include a variety of topics such as product knowledge and customer service tips. Our customer care representatives respond to customers’ e-mails and calls related to order status, prices and shipping. If our customer care representatives are unable to respond to a customer’s inquiry at the time of the call, we strive to provide an answer within 24 hours. We believe our customer care representatives are a valuable source of feedback regarding customer satisfaction. Our customer returns and credits average approximately 1% of total sales.
 
New Product Development
 
We are committed to research and development. We develop our products internally and own all rights associated with these products. In 2007, we commercialized four disinfectant products, including PuTai Skin Disinfectant, PuTai washless surgical hand scrub, PuTai washless surgical hand foam disinfectant and LiKang disinfectant detergent, which is an environmental and surface disinfectant.
 
In 2011, we commercialized two new disinfectant products, Putai 2% Chlorhexidine gluconate alcohol disinfectant and Dian’erkang Compound Iodophor skin disinfectant, and we are also in the process of developing four other products.
 
For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, we spent approximately $180,232 and approximately $164,300 on research and development, respectively.

Marketing and Sales
 
Our CEO, Mr. Xuelian Bian, was a member of the staff of Second Military Medical University (SMMU) of the Chinese Army (“SMMU”). We believe that his relationships with alumni and business persons associated with SMMU provide us with certain marketing advantages. The university is a well recognized, prestigious institution in China and many of its graduates work at hospitals, medical suppliers, and distribution companies throughout China in senior positions, which place them in the decision making process for purchasing the kind of products we sell. In addition, the students and faculty at the university provide a pool of talent from which we draw, both as potential employees or summer interns who go on to work at other companies, many of whom are customers or potential customers for our products. In marketing our products, we seek to leverage these relationships.
 
We have a national marketing and sales presence throughout 22 provinces, four autonomous regions, and four municipalities of China. We currently employ 27 full-time sales and marketing employees based in Shanghai. ZhongYou Pharmaceutical, an affiliate, also sells our products using 68 independent sales representatives in China.
 
Approximately 46.38% of our sales are achieved by our proprietary sales force, while the remaining 53.62% are outsourced to independent dealers and agents. We compensate our proprietary salesman with a base salary plus commission. Sales representatives are located in each of China’s provinces. The sales network currently covers hospitals in the following 22 provinces and municipalities including: Beijing, Guangdong, Tianjin, Fujian, Yunnan, Hainan, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, Shandong, Henan, Hebei, Liaoning, Heilongjiang, Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia, Guizhou, Hunan, Sichuan, Xinjiang, and Neimenggu. Sales representatives sell directly to the end-users.
 
Disinfectant Educational Center
 
On May 25, 2006, we entered into an agreement with China Pest Infestation Control and Sanitation Association, an association governed by the Chinese central government, to establish and operate a disinfectant educational center in Beijing, China. We are responsible for the establishment and development of the disinfectant educational center, as well as its management and funding. The China Pest Infestation Control and Sanitation Association is responsible for establishing a job training base in Beijing. We believe we were selected to participate in this program based upon our reputation and experience in the disinfectant industry.
 
The disinfectant educational center offers a job training program to educate and train professionals to work in the disinfectant field. The disinfectant educational center is a tuition based education program for which graduates receive a license from the China Pest Infestation Control and Sanitation Association. After completion of the program, a personnel exchange service center of the Chinese Ministry of Public Health functions much like a placement office and assists the center's graduates in securing positions with companies seeking to fill positions in the PRC. From time to time we may also recruit graduates from the disinfectant educational center to join us.
 
After the Wenchuan Earthquake occurred on May 12, 2008, LiKang Disinfectant entered into an agreement with the Ministry of Public Health, the National Patriot and Sanitation Committee, and the Dujiangyan National Disaster Headquarters to provide service to stricken areas. On June 6, 2008, Likang Disinfectant sent its own teams to Sichuan to provide sanitation technical training for over 270 staff as well as providing a qualification course and examinations to over 100 national disinfectors. On June 27, 2008, 76 national disinfectors had taken professional qualification exams and 67 national disinfectors were qualified. The passage rate was 88%.
 
In 2010, 1,100 participants attended the Likang Disinfectant training course, of which 1,045 became qualified. In 2011, there were 2,208 participants that attended the Likang Disinfectant training course, of which 2,200 became qualified.

We have nine product trademarks, of which four are registered trademarks with the China State Administration for industry and commerce trademark office. These trademarks cover our four major product lines, An’erdian, Jifro, Dian’erkang and Lvshaxing.
 
Competition
 
We operate in a fragmented, competitive national market for healthcare disinfectant products. While the disinfectant industry in China is an emerging industry, and the industry is populated with small regional players, we estimate that there are over 1,000 manufacturers and distributors of disinfectant products in China and a certain number of our major competitors distribute products similar to ours, including those which also prevent the spread of airborne viruses such as avian flu and SARS.
 
We also compete with foreign companies who are marketing a limited line of disinfectant products in China. Most domestic competitors offer a limited line of products and there are few domestic companies with a nationwide presence. We believe that our national marketing and sales presence throughout all twenty-two provinces, as well as four autonomous regions, and four municipalities in China give us a competitive advantage over many other disinfectant companies in China.
 
In addition, prior to the adoption of industry standards in July 2002 by the central government of China, disinfectant products were generally marketed and sold based on pricing factors. We believe the standards implemented by the government and a growing middle income class has shifted the customer focus from price to quality.
 
As a result of the government’s license and permit system, all disinfectant manufacturers must comply with "qualified disinfection product manufacturing enterprise requirements” established by the Ministry of Health. The requirements include standards for both hardware and software. Hardware includes facilities and machinery and software includes the technology to monitor the facilities. The requirements also encompass the knowledge and capability of both the production staff and quality control procedures.
 
Furthermore, we estimate that the government standards have increased the barriers to enter into the disinfectant industry. We believe that the standards may lead to fewer competitors as companies falter in their efforts to adhere to the standards. The implementation of these improved production standards and licenses have effectively decreased the competitiveness of small and mid-size manufacturers. Compliance with the standards is especially difficult for companies with limited product offerings and inferior technical content.

Competitive Advantages
 
We believe that the following are the principal competitive strengths that differentiate us from the majority of our competition:
 
· Strong sales and distribution network in China – This enables us to compete effectively with domestic competitors, as well as larger foreign-owned competitors.
 
· Product selection and availability – A number of our competitors are smaller, regional companies with a limited number of product offerings. We offer our customers a wide variety of disinfectant products and the ability to ship products to our customers on a timely basis throughout the PRC.
 
· Research and development – Our efforts to respond to market demand for new products have resulted in the issuance to us of 31 hygiene licenses by the Ministry of Public Health. Based upon our knowledge of our competitors, we do not believe any of our competitors have received as many licenses since the enactment of the licensing standards in July 2002.
 
· Strong product pipeline – We have a history of introducing three or four new products to the market each year. We have filed applications for four new products and have eight additional products in development.
 
· Manufacturing capacity We are operating at 50% capacity to produce GMP certified products and we have the ability to increase capacity significantly at moderate costs.
 
· Customer service – Our sales personnel are thoroughly educated about our products, which enable them to better understand the needs of our customers. Our customer service representatives strive to answer questions immediately and, at a minimum, no later than 24 hours after a customer’s inquiry.
 
· Reliability and speed of delivery. We believe our products have developed a reputation of good quality and effectiveness and our manufacturing capabilities enable us to produce and ship products to our customers promptly.
 
· Price – We have developed relationships with a number of raw material suppliers which enables us to reduce our costs and thereby offer competitive prices to our customers.
 
Our primary competitors in the sale of chemical disinfectants are 3M Company (“3M”) and Ace Disinfection Factory Co., Ltd. The primary competitors for instrument disinfectants are Chengdu Kangaking Instrument Co., Ltd. and Hangzhou Yangchi Medicine Article Co., Ltd. The primary competitors for chemical indicators are 3M and Shandong Xinhua Medical Instrument Co., Ltd. Domestic competition comes from regional companies which tend to offer products in small geographic areas and do not distribute their product lines throughout China.
 
Our primary competitors include:

Our primary foreign competitor is 3M , which has had a presence in China for more than 20 years. 3M entered the hand disinfection market at the end of 2004 and primarily offers products in the areas of index and control devices and disinfectant machines. At present, 3M has five products for use in operating rooms and its products are found in provincial capital cities of China such as Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Chengdu and Xi’an. 3M’s product line in China is relatively narrow, with few overlapping products between 3M and our Company.

Another foreign competitor is Johnson & Johnson, which established its operations in China in 1994. In China, Johnson & Johnson offers a variety of skin, hand, and medical equipment disinfectants. Prior to the initiatives taken by the government, disinfectant products were marketed based on pricing, and despite the brand awareness of Johnson & Johnson, its products did not have widespread reception among the community. Furthermore, Johnson & Johnson does not offer a wide variety of disinfectant products in China.
 
Government Regulations
 
Our business and operations are located in the PRC. We are subject to local food, drug, environmental laws related to certification of manufacturing and distributing of disinfectants. We are also licensed by the Shanghai City Government to manufacture and distribute disinfectants. We are in substantial compliance with all provisions of those licenses and have no reason to believe that they will not be renewed as required by the applicable regulations. In addition, our operations must conform to general governmental regulations and rules for private companies conducting business in China.
 
Pursuant to the July 2002 Ministry of Public Health 27th Order of Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China, all disinfectant manufacturers in China must obtain a license to manufacture hygiene disinfectants. Prior to issuance of a license, all disinfectant instruments must obtain the official hygiene permit document from the Ministry of Public Health and the approval of the provincial hygiene administrative department. The implementation of these improved production standards and licenses has effectively decreased the competitiveness of small to mid size manufacturers with single product and inferior technical content. Presently, we meet all standards initiated by this ordinance and we have been granted 31 hygiene licenses by the Ministry of Public Health.
 
We are also subject to various other rules and regulations, including the People’s Republic of China Infectious Disease Prevention and Cure Law, Disinfection Management Regulation, Disinfection Technique Regulation, Disinfection Product Manufacturer Sanitation Regulation, and Endoscope Rinse and Disinfection Technique Manipulation Regulation. We believe we are in material compliance with these of these regulations.
 
Sanitary Standard for Producing Disinfectant products Enterprises 2009
 
To strengthen supervision and standardize the behavior of disinfectant products, the People's Republic of China Ministry of Public Health revised the old disinfectant manufacturing criteria and enacted the “Sanitary Standard for Producing Disinfectant products Enterprises 2009” based on "Infectious Diseases Prevention Law" and "sterilization management approach" effective January 1, 2010.
 
According to the new guideline, the compounding, mixing, and subpackaging of skin and mucous membrane disinfectants and antibacterial preparation (except for hand-washing products) should be processed in a workshop with a 300,000 level of air purification.
 
Employees
 
As of December 31, 2011, we employed approximately 168 full-time employees, including our executive officers. The numbers are listed as follows:

U.S. Advisors
 
On July 1, 2009, we entered into a two year agreement with First Trust Group, Inc. In connection with this agreement, we issued 1,800,000 shares of our common stock valued at $0.09 per share to First Trust Group, Inc. and recorded $162,000 as deferred compensation. We amortized $162,000 as stock-based compensation for the year ended December 31, 2011.
 
History of Our Company
 
Our Company was incorporated in the State of Florida on October 11, 2000 under the name HBOA Holdings, Inc. (“HBOA”). Please note that while the existing corporate entity was formally incorporated in Florida in 2000, our past operations include those relating to our predecessor, Kirshner Entertainment & Technologies, Inc., which was incorporated in the State of Colorado on December 11, 1996. On November 10, 2000, pursuant to a plan of merger between Mizar Energy Co., a Colorado corporation, and HBOA, the shareholders of the two companies approved a transaction that merged Mizar Energy Company into HBOA. As a result of such merger, HBOA was the surviving corporation. On December 28, 2000, we formed a new subsidiary, Aerisys Incorporated (“Aerisys??, a Florida corporation, to handle commercial private business. In June 2003, we formed our entertainment division and changed our name to reflect this new division. Effective as of March 31, 2004, we discontinued our entertainment division and our technology division, except for the Aerisys operations that continue on a limited basis.
 
On May 2, 2005, we entered into and consummated a share exchange with all of the shareholders of Linkwell Tech Group, Inc. (“Linkwell Tech”). Pursuant to the share exchange, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Linkwell Tech's common stock, in exchange for 36,273,470 shares of our common stock, which at closing represented approximately 87.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. As a result of the transaction, Linkwell Tech became our wholly-owned subsidiary. Linkwell Tech was founded on June 22, 2004, as a Florida corporation. On June 30, 2004, Linkwell Tech acquired 90% of Shanghai LiKang Disinfectant High-Tech Company, Ltd. (“LiKang Disinfectant”), a PRC company, through a stock exchange. This transaction resulted in the formation of a U.S. holding company by the shareholders of LiKang Disinfectant as it did not result in a change in the underlying ownership interest of LiKang Disinfectant. LiKang Disinfectant is a science and technology enterprise founded in 1988. LiKang Disinfectant is involved in the development, production, marketing and sale, and distribution of disinfectant health care products.
 
LiKang Disinfectant has developed a line of disinfectant product offerings which are utilized by the hospital and medical industry in China. LiKang Disinfectant has developed a line of disinfectant product offerings. LiKang Disinfectant regards hospital disinfectant products as the primary segment of its business and has developed and manufactured several series of products in the field of skin mucous disinfection, hand disinfection, surrounding articles disinfection, medical instruments disinfection and air disinfection.
 
On June 30, 2005, our Board of Directors approved an amendment of our Articles of Incorporation to change the name of our Company to Linkwell Corporation. The effective date of the name change was after close of business on August 16, 2005.
 
On April 6, 2007, our subsidiary, Linkwell Tech, entered into two material stock purchase agreements as follows:
 

 
- 15 -

 

i) Linkwell Tech entered into an agreement (the “Biological Stock Purchase Agreement”) to acquire a 100% equity interest in Shanghai LiKang Biological High-Tech Company, Ltd. (“LiKang Biological”), a Chinese company, in a related party transaction with Mr. Xuelian Bian, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Wei Guan, the Company’s Vice President and Director, and Shanghai Likang Pharmaceuticals Technology Co., Ltd. (“LiKang Pharmaceutical”), a PRC company. Before Linkwell Tech entered into the Biological Stock Purchase Agreement, Mr. Bian and Mr. Guan owned 90% and 10% of LiKang Pharmaceutical, respectively. Mr. Bian and LiKang Pharmaceutical owned 60% and 40% of LiKang Biological, respectively. Pursuant to the terms of the Biological Stock Purchase Agreement, Mr. Bian and LiKang Pharmaceutical were to receive 1,000,000 shares of our restricted Common Stock.
 
Due to restrictions under PRC law that prohibited the consideration contemplated by the Biological Stock Purchase Agreement, the agreement did not close. As a result, on March 25, 2008, the parties entered into an amendment to the Biological Stock Purchase Agreement (“Biological Amendment”) in an effort to complete the stock purchase transaction. Pursuant to the terms of the Biological Amendment, the only material change to the Biological Stock Purchase Agreement related to the consideration paid by Linkwell Tech to Xuelian Bian and LiKang Pharmaceutical, which was changed from 1,000,000 shares of our Common Stock to 500,000 shares of Common Stock and $200,000. As of December 31, 2008, the Biological Stock Purchase Agreement was pending and required further approval from the PRC Ministry of Commerce. Due to the time consuming and complicated nature of the approval procedure, the parties agreed to enter into a second amendment   to the Biological Stock Purchase Agreement (“Second Amendment”)  in order to complete the purchase transactions timely and properly. Pursuant to the terms of the Second Amendment, the purchaser was changed from Linkwell Tech to LiKang Disinfectant, and, in addition, the consideration changed to RMB 2,000,000, approximately $292,500, and 500,000 shares of Common Stock of Linkwell Corporation. These changes were pertinent because an approval from the Ministry of Commerce in the PRC would not be necessary if LiKang Disinfectant acquired 100% of the equity interest in LiKang Biological, as both companies are registered in the PRC. This transaction closed on March 5, 2009. During the quarter ended September 30, 2009, LiKang Disinfectant increased its investment into Likang Biological by investing RMB 2.5 million cash and RMB 5.5 million in intangible assets (patents) into Likang Biological.  Likang Biological is mainly engaged in producing the disinfectant concentrate.
 
ii) Linkwell Tech, which already owned a 90% equity interest in LiKang Disinfectant, entered into an agreement  to purchase the remaining 10% equity interest of LiKang Disinfectant from Shanghai Shanhai Group (“Shanhai”), a non-affiliated Chinese entity (the “Disinfectant Stock Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Disinfectant Stock Purchase Agreement, Shanhai was to receive 3,000,000 shares of our restricted Common Stock.
 
Due to restrictions under PRC law that prohibited the consideration then contemplated by the Disinfectant Stock Purchase Agreement, the agreement did not close. As a result of this, on March 25, 2008, the parties entered into an amendment to the Disinfectant Stock Purchase Agreement (“Disinfectant Amendment”) in an effort to complete the stock purchase transaction. Pursuant to the terms of the Disinfectant Amendment, the only material change to the Disinfectant Stock Purchase Agreement related to the consideration paid by Linkwell Tech to the Shanhai for the remaining 10% equity interest, which was changed from 3,000,000 shares of our Common Stock to 1,500,000 shares of our common stock for $380,000. Due to the fluctuation of the applicable exchange rate, the cash consideration was increased to $399,057. The other terms of the Disinfectant Stock Purchase Agreement remained in full force and effect.
 
Linkwell Tech paid $395,800 to Shanhai on February 21, 2008 and paid $3,257 on April 18, 2008. A total of 1,500,000 shares were expected to be issued before the end of May 2008. The parties, however, agreed to extend the share issuance date until October 20, 2008. We valued the acquisition using the fair value of common shares at $0.19 per share and recorded an investment of $285,000. Including the cash payment of $399,057, the total investment for acquiring 10% equity interest in LiKang Disinfectant was $684,057. The cumulative minority interest of 10% equity interest in LiKang Disinfectant at March 25, 2008 was approximately $557,779. The difference between the total investment and the cumulative minority interest of $126,278 was deducted from retained earnings as dividends to Shanhai. As a result of the closing of the Disinfectant Stock Purchase Agreement, as amended, as of March 25, 2008, our 90% owned subsidiary Linkwell Tech owns 100% of the equity interest in LiKang Disinfectant.

On February 15, 2008, we entered into a stock purchase agreement with Ecolab Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Ecolab”), pursuant to which Ecolab agreed to purchase 888,889 of shares of Linkwell Tech, or 10% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Linkwell Tech, for $2,000,000. On March 28, 2008 and June 4, 2008, Linkwell Tech received $200,000 and $1,388,559, respectively from Ecolab. Including a $400,000 loan that Linkwell Tech received from Ecolab and accrued interest thereon of $11,441, Linkwell Tech received a total investment of $2,000,000 from Ecolab. On May 31, 2008, our Company, Linkwell Tech and Ecolab entered into a Linkwell Tech Group Inc. Stockholders Agreement, whereby both the Company and Ecolab are subject to, and beneficiaries of, certain pre-emptive rights, transfer restrictions and take along rights relating to the shares of Linkwell Tech that the Company and Ecolab each hold. As of May 31, 2008, the principal and accrued interest of $11,441 on the short-term $400,000 loan became part of Ecolab’s investment and does not need to be repaid.
 
On May 31, 2008, LiKang Disinfectant entered into a stock purchase agreement under which it sold 100% of the capital stock of its wholly-owned subsidiary, LiKang International, to Linkwell International Trading Co., Ltd., a company registered in Hong Kong which is 100% owned by Mr. Wei Guan, our Company’s Vice President and Director.  Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, LiKang Disinfectant received $291,754 (RMB 2,000,000) after the agreement was approved by the PRC Ministry of Commerce on March 27, 2008.
 
During the quarter ended September 30, 2009, LiKang Disinfectant invested certain of its intangible assets in Likang Biological.  The Likang Disinfectant intangible assets were valued at approximately $2,000,000 and accounted for an approximately $800,000 increase in the registered capital of Likang Biological.
 
On December 21, 2009, we entered into a stock purchase agreement with Inner Mongolia Wuhai Chengtian Chemical Co., Ltd., a corporation organized under the laws of China (“Wuhai Chengtian”) and Honglin Li, a stockholder of Wuhai Chengtian, under which Likang Disinfectant purchased 35% of the outstanding capital stock of Wuhai Chengtian from Honglin Li in exchange for approximately $463,235 (3,150,000 RMB) and 4,000,000 shares of our common stock, $0.0005 par value per share. Prior to this transaction, Likang Disinfectant owned 16% of the capital stock of Wuhai Chengtian. As a result of this transaction, LiKang Disinfectant now owns 51% of the capital stock of Wuhai Chengtian. Wuhai Chengtian manufactures materials we use to make certain of our disinfectant products.
 
We, along with Wuhai Chengtian, have been unable to obtain governmental tax approval of the transactions contemplated thereby.  As such, on February 26, 2010, our Company, Linkwell Tech, Likang Disinfectant, Wuhai Chengtian and Honglin Li entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Stock Purchase Agreement whereby the Stock Purchase Agreement has been amended such that the exchange is now contingent upon the parties receiving governmental approval of the transaction. This transaction has not closed as of the date of this report.
 
            Wuhai Chengtian, which changed name to Inner Mongolia Likang Biological Co., Ltd. (“Wuhai Likang”) in 2011, increased the registered capital from RMB 9 million to RMB 50 million. As a result of the capital increase, we now only hold the 9.18% of Inner Mongolia Likang Biological Co., Ltd.

Recent Developments

             We are presently finalizing negotiations and definitive agreements for the acquisition of Metamining Nevada, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Metamining Nevada”) from Metamining Inc., an unrelated third party.  We expect that the terms of the definitive agreement to be executed by the parties will provide that we will acquire 100% of the capital stock of Metamining Nevada in exchange for shares of our newly designated Series C convertible preferred stock and a Series C common stock purchase warrant.  Metamining Nevada is a development stage company which was established in March 2011. In April 2011 Metamining Inc. entered into agreements with unrelated third parties to acquire rights to mining claims, together with certain real property rights, on approximately 4,500 acres in northern Nevada for an aggregate purchase price of $14,250,000. Under the terms of the two year agreements, the purchase price is payable in installments, of which an aggregate of $5,625,000 is due on April 15, 2012 and the balance of $5,625,000 is due on April 15, 2013.

In anticipation of execution of definitive agreements for the acquisition of Metamining Nevada, on March 29, 2012 we filed Articles of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation designating a series of our blank check preferred stock, consisting of 9,581,973 shares, as Series C convertible preferred stock. The designations, rights and preferences of the Series C convertible preferred stock is as follows:

 
- 17 -

 


 
at any time following the effectiveness of a 1:200 reverse stock split of our then outstanding common stock, the shares of Series C convertible preferred stock are convertible at the option of the holder into shares of our common stock on a 1:1 basis;
 
the stated value of the shares is $0.0005 per share, and in the event of a liquidation or winding up of our company, the holders would be entitled a liquidation preference equal to the stated value per share;
 
the shares are not entitled to receive any dividends, except as may be declared by our Board of Directors from time to time, and the shares have no redemption or call rights attached;
 
the Series C convertible preferred stock ranks pari passu with any other series of preferred stock our Board may designate and is not designated as a senior security;
 
each share of Series C convertible preferred stock is entitled to one vote for every share of our common stock into which it is then convertible, and is entitled to vote together with our common shareholders on all matters submitted to a vote of our shareholders;
 
the shares carry customary anti-dilution provisions in the event of stock splits, recapitalizations or similar corporate events following the effective date of the reverse stock split; and
 
upon conversion, all shares of Series C convertible preferred stock return to the status of authorized but undesignated shares of our blank check preferred stock.

As of the date of this report we have not entered into any binding agreements for the acquisition of Metamining Nevada and there are no assurances we will consummate such transaction.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.
 
Investing in our securities involves a great deal of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below as well as other information provided to you in this document, including information in the section of this document entitled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Information.”  The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing our Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial may also impair our business operations.  If any of the following risks actually occur, our Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected, the value of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment .
 
RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMPANY
 
We engage in a number of material transactions with related parties which could result in a conflict of interest involving our management.
 
We are heavily dependent on certain related party transactions in the ongoing conduct of our business. Sales to our related parties represented approximately 54.68% of our total net revenues in the fiscal year of 2011 and approximately 51.75% of our total net revenues in fiscal 2010. The related parties represented approximately 78.60% and approximately 71.43% of our accounts receivable at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. These affiliated transactions may, from time to time, result in a conflict of interest for our management. Because these transactions are not subject to the approval of our shareholders, investors in our Company are wholly dependent upon the judgment of our management in these related party transactions.
 
The management of our Company is located in the PRC and we are heavily dependent upon advisory services of our U.S. advisors.
 
None of the current members of our management have any experience with the operation and regulatory framework of U.S. public companies. Additionally, these individuals are not fluent in English.
 
Until such time as we are able to expand our board of directors to include English-speaking individuals who also have experience with the operation and regulatory framework applicable to U.S. public companies, we are heavily dependent upon our relationship with our U.S. advisors. If for any reason our advisors should fail to provide the contracted services at the anticipated levels or fail to extend their services, we may be unable to comply with the U.S. securities regulations on a timely basis. In this event, your ability to liquidate your investment would be negatively impacted and you could lose your entire investment in our Company.

 
- 18 -

 


 
As is customary in the PRC, we extend relatively long payment terms to our customers, which can negatively impact our cash flow. Our terms of sales generally require payment within four to six months, which is considerably longer than customary terms offered in the United States. For the 2011 fiscal year, the average time of payment on accounts receivable from related parties was six to eight months and from non-related third parties was four to five months. We would like to control the average time of payment on accounts receivable from related parties within 150 days.
 
We occasionally offer established customers, including related parties, longer payment terms of up to 240 days on new products as an incentive to purchase these products. We maintain a relatively low reserve for doubtful accounts when compared to a company operating in the U.S. Our payment terms may have the effect of adversely impacting our cash flow and our ability to fund our operations out of our operating cash flow. Our ability to continue to implement our growth strategy could suffer if our cash flow is adversely impacted, which may limit our ability to increase our revenues in the future.
 
Certain agreements to which we are a party and are material to our operations lack various legal protections, which are customarily contained in similar contracts prepared in the United States.
 
We are a Chinese company and all of our business and operations are conducted in China. We are a party to certain material contracts, including an agreement for the lease for our principal offices and manufacturing facility. While these contracts contain the basic business terms of the agreements between the parties, these contracts do not contain certain provisions which are customarily contained in similar contracts prepared in the U.S. For instance, our contracts may not include provisions such as representations and warranties of the parties, confidentiality and non-compete clauses, provisions outlining events of defaults, and/or termination and jurisdictional clauses. Because our material contracts omit these types of clauses, we may not have the same legal protections as we could have if the contracts contained these provisions. While we have not been subject to any adverse consequences as a result of the omission of these types of clauses, future events may occur which could lead to potential disputes. Contractual disputes may divert our management's time from our business operations and require us to expend additional funds to resolve possible disputes. This possible diversion of our management’s time may limit the time our management could otherwise devote to our business operation, and it could also limit the funds we have available to pay our ongoing operating expenses.
 
Each of our product groups operate in highly competitive businesses.
 
Each of our product groups is subject to competition from other manufacturers of similar products. There are approximately 1,000 manufacturers of similar disinfectant products in China, but only approximately 30 manufacturers, including our Company, operate on a continuous basis. While we believe we are one of the leading manufacturers of disinfectant products in the PRC, from time to time, there may still be a sporadic oversupply of these products which can adversely impact our market share and competitive position in this product group. As a result, we may not be able to effectively compete in our product segments and may limit our ability to sustain our current level of operations or grow our revenue in future periods.
 
Because of the specialized, technical nature of the business, we are highly dependent on certain members of management, as well as our marketing, engineering and technical staff .
 
The loss of the services of our current management and skill employees could have a material and negative effect on our ability to effectively pursue our business strategy. In addition to manufacturing high volumes of our products and developing new products, we must attract, recruit and retain a sizeable workforce of technically competent employees, including additional skilled and experienced managerial, marketing, engineering and technical personnel. If we are unable to do so, our ability to expand our business and increase our revenue could be limited.
 
If we experience customer concentration, we may be exposed to all of the risks faced by our remaining material customers.
 

 
- 19 -

 


For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 revenues from one customer, ZhongYou Pharmaceutical, an affiliate, represented approximately 53.62% and approximately 51.75%, respectively, of our total net revenues. Unless we maintain multiple customer relationships, it is likely that we will experience periods during which we may be highly dependent on a limited number of customers. Dependence on a small number of customers could make it difficult for us to negotiate attractive prices for our products and could expose us to the risk of substantial losses if a single dominant customer stops conducting business with us. Moreover, to the extent that we are dependent on any single customer, we are subject to the risks faced by that customer to the extent that such risks impede the customer's ability to stay in business and make timely payments to us.
 
We depend on factories to manufacture our products, which may be insufficiently insured against damage or loss.
 
We have no direct business operation, other than our ownership of our subsidiaries located in China, and the results of operations and our financial condition are solely dependent on our subsidiaries' factories in China. We do not currently maintain insurance to protect against damage and loss to our facilities and other leasehold improvements. Therefore, any material damage to, or the loss of, any of our facilities due to fire, severe weather, flooding or other cause, would not be shared with an insurance company, and if large enough, would have a material and negative effect on our financial condition. If the damage was significant, we could be forced to stop operations until such time as the faculties could be repaired.
 
Our operations are subject to government regulation. If we fail to comply with the applicable regulations, our ability to operate in future periods could be in jeopardy.
 
We are subject to various state and local environmental laws related to our business. We are subject to local food, drug, environmental laws related to certification of manufacturing and distribution of our disinfectants. We are also licensed by the Shanghai City Government to manufacture and distribute disinfectants. While we are in substantial compliance with all provisions of those registrations, inspections, and licenses, and have no reason to believe that they will not be renewed as required by the applicable rules of the Central Government and the Shanghai municipality, any non-renewal of these authorities could result in the cessation of our business activities.
 
Due to recent incidents of pollution to milk powder by Melamine and increased medical accidents and disputes, the government will impose more stringent restrictions over the quality of products and distributions in markets, given tighter control over food, drug and disinfectant industries, which would add costs to our operations. Any incompliance with these restrictions would jeopardize our ability to operate in future.
 
We may not have sufficient protection of certain of our intellectual property.
 
We utilize certain technologies in the purification of raw material used in our products which are proprietary in nature. We are not a party to any confidentiality or similar agreements with employees and third parties including consultants, vendors and customers and it not likely that we will enter into these types of agreements in the future. It is possible that our employees or a third party could, without authorization, utilize our propriety technologies without our consent. The unauthorized use of this proprietary information by third parties could adversely affect our business and operations as well as any competitive advantage we may have in our market segment. We may not have adequate remedies for the protection of our proprietary technologies and these proprietary technologies could become known or independently developed by competitors, in which event our ability to effectively compete could be in jeopardy.
 
We have not voluntarily implemented various corporate governance measures, in the absence of which, shareholders may have reduced protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and other matters.
 
We are not subject to any law, rule or regulation requiring that we adopt any of the corporate governance measures that are required by the rules of national securities exchanges such as independent directors and audit committees. It is possible that if we were to adopt some or all of the corporate governance measures, shareholders would benefit from greater assurances that internal corporate decisions were being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been implemented to define responsible conduct. Prospective investors should consider our current lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their investment decisions.

RISKS RELATED TO DOING BUSINESS IN CHINA
 
All of our assets and operations are located in the PRC and are subject to changes resulting from the political and economic policies of the Chinese government.
 
Our business operations could be restricted by the political environment in the PRC. The PRC has operated as a socialist state since 1949 and is controlled by the Communist Party of China. In recent years, however, the government has introduced reforms aimed at creating a "socialist market economy" and policies have been implemented to allow business enterprises greater autonomy in their operations. Changes in the political leadership of the PRC may have a significant effect on laws and policies related to the current economic reform programs, other policies affecting business and the general political, economic and social environment in the PRC, including the introduction of measures to control inflation, changes in the rate or method of taxation, the imposition of additional restrictions on currency conversion and remittances abroad, and foreign investment. Moreover, economic reforms and growth in the PRC have been more successful in certain provinces than in others, and the continuation or increases of such disparities could affect the political or social stability of the PRC.
 
Although we believe that the economic reform and the macroeconomic measures adopted by the Chinese government have had a positive effect on the economic development of China, the future direction of these economic reforms is uncertain and the uncertainty may decrease the attractiveness of our company as an investment, which may in turn result in a decline in the trading price of our common stock.
 
The Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities.
 
The PRC has only recently permitted provincial and local economic autonomy and private economic activities. The government of the PRC has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. Accordingly, governmental 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 the PRC or particular regions thereof. In such event, we could be forced to cease operations.
 
Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive and use our revenues effectively.
 
Because all of revenues are in the form of RMB, any future restrictions on currency exchanges may limit our ability to use revenue generated in RMB to fund any future business activities outside China or to make dividend or other payments in U.S. dollars. Although the Chinese government introduced regulations in 1996 to allow greater convertibility of the RMB for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain, including primarily the restriction that foreign-invested enterprises may only buy, sell or remit foreign currencies, after providing valid commercial documents, at those banks authorized to conduct foreign exchange business. In addition, conversion of RMB for capital account items, including direct investment and loans, is subject to government approval in China, and companies are required to open and maintain separate foreign exchange accounts for capital account items. We cannot be certain that the Chinese regulatory authorities will not impose more stringent restrictions on the convertibility of the RMB, especially with respect to foreign exchange transactions.
 
We may be unable to enforce our rights due to policies regarding the regulation of foreign investments in China.
 
The PRC's legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes in which decided legal cases have little value as precedents, unlike the common law system prevalent in the United States. The PRC does not have a well-developed, consolidated body of laws governing foreign investment enterprises. As a result, the administration of laws and regulations by government agencies may be subject to considerable discretion and variation, and may be subject to influence by external forces unrelated to the legal merits of a particular matter. China's regulations and policies with respect to foreign investments are evolving. Definitive regulations and policies with respect to such matters as the permissible percentage of foreign investment and permissible rates of equity returns have not yet been published. Statements regarding these evolving policies have been conflicting and any such policies, as administered, are likely to be subject to broad interpretation and discretion and to be modified, perhaps on a case-by-case basis. The uncertainties regarding such regulations and policies present risks which may affect our ability to achieve our stated business objectives. If we are unable to enforce any legal rights we may have under our contracts or otherwise, our ability to compete with other companies in our industry could be limited which could result in a loss of revenue in future periods which could impact our ability to continue as a going concern.

Recent PRC regulations relating to acquisitions of PRC companies by foreign entities may create regulatory uncertainties that could restrict or limit our ability to operate, including our ability to pay dividends.
 
The PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, issued a public notice in January 2005 concerning foreign exchange regulations on mergers and acquisitions in China. The public notice states that if an offshore company controlled by PRC residents intends to acquire a PRC company, such acquisition will be subject to strict examination by the relevant foreign exchange authorities. The public notice also states that the approval of the relevant foreign exchange authorities is required for any sale or transfer by the PRC residents of a PRC company’s assets or equity interests to foreign entities for equity interests or assets of the foreign entities.
 
In April 2005, SAFE issued another public notice further explaining the January notice. In accordance with the April 2005 notice, if an acquisition of a PRC company by an offshore company controlled by PRC residents has been confirmed by a Foreign Investment Enterprise Certificate prior to the promulgation of the January 2005 notice, the PRC residents must each submit a registration form to the local SAFE branch with respect to their respective ownership interests in the offshore company, and must also file an amendment to such registration if the offshore company experiences material events, such as changes in the share capital, share transfer, mergers and acquisitions, spin-off transaction or use of assets in China to guarantee offshore obligations. The April 2005 notice also provides that failure to comply with the registration procedures set forth therein may result in restrictions on our PRC resident shareholders and our subsidiaries. Pending the promulgation of detailed implementation rules, the relevant government authorities are reluctant to commence processing any registration or application for approval required under the SAFE notices.
 
In addition, on August 8, 2006, the Ministry of Commerce (“MOFCOM”), joined by the State-Owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council, State Administration of Taxation, State Administration for Industry and Commerce, China Securities Regulatory Commission and SAFE, amended and released the Provisions for Foreign Investors to Merge and Acquire Domestic Enterprises, new foreign-investment rules which took effect September 8, 2006, superseding much, but not all, of the guidance in the prior SAFE circulars. These new rules significantly revise China’s regulatory framework governing onshore-offshore restructurings and how foreign investors can acquire domestic enterprises. These new rules signify greater PRC government attention to cross-border merger, acquisition and other investment activities, by confirming MOFCOM as a key regulator for issues related to mergers and acquisitions in China and requiring MOFCOM approval of a broad range of merger, acquisition and investment transactions. Further, the new rules establish reporting requirements for acquisition of control by foreigners of companies in key industries, and reinforce the ability of the Chinese government to monitor and prohibit foreign control transactions in key industries.
 
These new rules may significantly affect the means by which offshore-onshore restructurings are undertaken in China in connection with offshore private equity and venture capital financings, mergers and acquisitions. It is expected that such transactional activity in China in the near future will require significant case-by-case guidance from MOFCOM and other government authorities as appropriate. It is anticipated that application of the new rules will be subject to significant administrative interpretation, and we will need to closely monitor how MOFCOM and other ministries apply the rules to ensure its domestic and offshore activities continue to comply with PRC law. Given the uncertainties regarding interpretation and application of the new rules, we may need to expend significant time and resources to maintain compliance.
 
It is uncertain how our business operations or future strategy will be affected by the interpretations and implementation of the SAFE notices and new rules. Our business operations or future strategy could be adversely affected by the SAFE notices and the new rules. For example, we may be subject to more stringent review and approval process with respect to our foreign exchange activities.

Failure to comply with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act could subject us to penalties and other adverse consequences.
 
We are subject to the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which generally prohibits United States companies from engaging in bribery or other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices occur from time-to-time in the PRC. We can make no assurance, however, that our employees or other agents will not engage in such conduct for which we might be held responsible. If our employees or other agents are found to have engaged in such practices, we could suffer severe penalties and other consequences that may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
We may have difficulty establishing adequate management, legal and financial controls in the PRC.
 
PRC companies have historically not adopted a Western style of management and financial reporting concepts and practices, which includes strong corporate governance, internal controls and, computer, financial and other control systems. In addition, we may have difficulty in hiring and retaining a sufficient number of qualified employees to work in the PRC. As a result of these factors, we may experience difficulty in establishing management, legal and financial controls, collecting financial data and preparing financial statements, books of account and corporate records and instituting business practices that meet Western standards. Therefore, we may, in turn, experience difficulties in implementing and maintaining adequate internal controls. Any such deficiencies, weaknesses or lack of compliance could have a material adverse effect on our business.
 
RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK
 
We have not voluntarily implemented various corporate governance measures, in the absence of which, stockholders may have more limited protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters.
 
Recent Federal legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures designed to promote the integrity of the corporate management and the securities markets. Some of these measures have been adopted in response to legal requirements. Others have been adopted by companies in response to the requirements of national securities exchanges, such as the NYSE or The NASDAQ Stock Market, on which their securities are listed. Among the corporate governance measures that are required under the rules of national securities exchanges are those that address board of directors' independence, audit committee oversight, and the adoption of a code of ethics. Although we have adopted a Code of Ethics, we have not yet adopted any of these other corporate governance measures and, since our securities are not yet listed on a national securities exchange, we are not required to do so. We have not adopted corporate governance measures such as an audit or other independent committees of our board of directors as we presently do not have any independent directors. If we expand our board membership in the future to include additional independent directors, we may seek to establish an audit and other committees of our Board of Directors. It is possible that if we were to adopt some or all of these corporate governance measures, stockholders would benefit from somewhat greater assurances that internal corporate decisions were being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been implemented to define responsible conduct. Prospective investors should bear in mind our current lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their investment decisions.
 
Provisions in our Articles of Incorporation and bylaws may delay or prevent a takeover which may not be in the best interests of our stockholders.
 
Provisions in our Articles of Incorporation and bylaws may be deemed to have anti-takeover effects, which include when and by whom special meetings of our shareholders may be called, and may delay, defer or prevent a takeover attempt. In addition, certain provisions of the Florida statutes may also be deemed to have certain anti-takeover effects, including that a control of shares acquired in excess of certain specified thresholds will not possess any voting rights unless these voting rights are approved by a majority of a corporation's disinterested shareholders.
 
In addition, our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, with such rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our Board of Directors, of which no shares are currently outstanding. Our Board of Directors may, without shareholder approval, issue preferred stock with dividends, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our Common Stock.

Because our Common Stock currently trades below $5.00 per share, our Commons Stock is considered a "penny stock" which can adversely affect its liquidity.
 
As a result of the trading price of our Common Stock being less than $5.00 per share, our common stock is considered a "penny stock" and is subject to the requirements of Rule 15g-9 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Under this rule, broker/dealers who recommend low-priced securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors must satisfy special sales practice requirements. The broker/dealer must make an individualized written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written consent prior to the transaction.
 
SEC regulations also require additional disclosure in connection with any trades involving a "penny stock," including the delivery of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and its associated risks prior to any penny stock transaction. These requirements severely limit the liquidity of securities in the secondary market because few brokers or dealers are likely to undertake these compliance requirements. In addition, other risks associated with trading in penny stocks include price fluctuations and the lack of a liquid market.
 
Our Common Stock trades  in the Over the Counter Market and there can be no assurance that an established trading market will develop.
 
Our Common Stock trades on the Pink Sheets and has in the past traded on Over The Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) until we were removed due to failure to meet the broker-dealer requirements of Rule 15c2-11 of the Exchange Act, as amended. Such Rule includes a requirement that at least one broker-dealer quotes our Common Stock each trading day and the automatic removal from the OTCBB for the failure to meet this requirement for a specific number of consecutive trading days. Our Common Stock does not have an established trading market.  
 
In order to be listed on the OTCBB, at least one broker-dealer member of FINRA must file a Form 15c2-11 application and become a market maker on the system and remain on the system quoting a market for our Common Stock. Also, in order to maintain the quotation of our shares of Common Stock on the OTCBB, we must remain a reporting company under the Exchange Act. This requires us to comply with the periodic reporting and proxy statement requirements of the Exchange Act. It is possible that our Common Stock could be listed on the OTCBB and again removed from the OTCBB and then be traded on the potentially less desirous Pink Sheets. In either venue, an investor may find it difficult to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of the common stock. In addition, if we failed to meet the criteria set forth in SEC regulations, various requirements would be imposed by law on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, such regulations may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling the Common Stock, which may further affect its liquidity. This would also make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital.

Our Common Stock is currently being quoted on the Pink Sheets under the trading symbol PINK:LWLL. Until February 23, 2011, our Common Stock was listed for quotation on the OTCBB under the symbol OTC:LWLL.  The removal of our Common Stock from the OTCBB was not due to the failure to meet quality standards or any delinquencies in reporting.  On February 23, 2011, our trading symbol changed to “PINK:LWLL.”  The reported high and low closing price for our Common Stock as reported on the OTCBB, are shown below.  Trading in our Common Stock on the OTCBB and Pink Sheets has been limited and sporadic and the quotations set forth below are not necessarily indicative of actual market conditions.  The quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, markdown or commission, and may not represent actual transactions.

Dividend Policy
 
We have never paid cash dividends on our Common Stock. Payment of dividends is within the sole discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend, among other factors, upon our earnings, capital requirements and our operating and financial condition. At the present time, our anticipated financial capital requirements are such that we intend to follow a policy of retaining earnings in order to finance the development of our business.
 
While we have no current intention of paying dividends on our common stock, should we decide in the future to do so, as a holding company, our ability to pay dividends and meet other obligations will depend upon the receipt of dividends or other payments from our operating subsidiaries. In addition, our operating subsidiaries, from time to time, may be subject to restrictions on their ability to make distributions to us, including situations such as restrictive covenants in loan agreements, restrictions on the conversion of local currency into U.S. dollars or other hard currency and regulatory restrictions.

OVERVIEW
 
We operate under a holding company structure and currently have one direct 90% owned operating subsidiary, Linkwell Tech Group, Inc. (“Linkwell Tech”), a Florida corporation.  Linkwell Tech owns 100% of Shanghai LiKang Disinfectant High-Tech Company, Limited (“LiKang Disinfectant”). On February 15, 2008, Linkwell Tech sold 10% of its issued and outstanding capital stock to Ecolab Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Ecolab”).  On March 5, 2009, LiKang Disinfectant purchased 100% of Shanghai LiKang Biological High-Tech Co., Ltd. (“Likang Biological”) for approximately $292,500 (RMB 2,000,000) and 500,000 shares of our Common Stock.
 
We, through Linkwell Tech’s wholly-owned subsidiary, LiKang Disinfectant and LiKang Disinfectant’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Likang Biological, are engaged in the development, manufacture, sale and distribution of disinfectant health care products primarily in the medical industry in China.
 
Over the years, China has experienced a variety of public health crises, which demonstrated the need for increased health standards in China. Since 2002, the Chinese government has undertaken various initiatives to improve public health and living standards, including continuing efforts to educate the public about the need for proper sanitation procedures and the establishment of production standards for the disinfectant industry in China, including the establishment of a more stringent licensing and permitting system. As a result, all disinfectant manufacturers must comply with “qualified disinfection product manufacturing enterprise requirements” established by the PRC’s Ministry of Public Health (“Ministry of Public Health”). The requirements include standards for hardware, such as facilities and machinery, and software, including the technology to monitor the facilities, as well as heightened knowledge and capability of the production staff regarding quality control procedures. Since the adoption of these standards in 2002, we have been granted thirty-one hygiene licenses by the Ministry of Public Health. 
 
We believe that government standards adopted in July 2002 have increased the barriers for competitors to enter into the disinfectant industry in China. The implementation of these improved production standards and license requirements has effectively decreased the competitive landscape as it pertains to small to medium size manufacturers, since the new standards are especially difficult to meet for companies with limited product offerings and inferior technical content. In addition, prior to the adoption of industry standards, disinfectant products were generally marketed and sold based on price as opposed to quality. We believe that these industry standards have impacted the market for disinfect products in China by placing a focus on product quality, which we believe may enable us to increase our commercial customer base and thereby increase our revenues.

 
- 26 -

 


 
In previous years, our focus has been on the commercial distribution of our products. Our customers include hospitals, medical suppliers and distribution companies throughout China. From the year 2009, we have made efforts to expand our distribution to reach the retail markets. We have repackaged certain of our commercial disinfectant products for sale to the consumer market and are expanding our customer base in this market to include hotels, schools, supermarkets and pharmacies. By virtue of the Chinese government's focus on education regarding, and the benefits of, proper sanitation procedures, we believe that another key to increasing our revenue will be the continued expansion of the retail distribution of our products.
 
The disinfectant industry in China is an emerging industry that is populated with small, regional companies. We estimate that there are more than 1,000 manufacturers and distributors of disinfectant products in China; however, most domestic competitors offer a limited line of products and there are only a few domestic companies with a national presence. We believe that our national marketing and sales presence throughout all twenty-two provinces, four autonomous regions and four municipalities in China, gives us a competitive advantage over many of these smaller, regional disinfectant companies and may allow us to leverage the brand awareness for our products among our commercial customers within the retail market.
 
We believe that our present manufacturing facilities and production capacities are sufficient for the foreseeable future, and we further believe that we have the assets and the capital necessary to enable the increase of our revenue as the market for disinfectant products in China continues to expand.  We will continue to focus our efforts on the retail market for our products, as well as on expanding our traditional base of commercial customers. In addition, we may also consider the possibility of acquiring independent sales networks, which may be used to increase our product distribution capacity.

NET SALES
 
Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2011 were $16,958,240 as compared to net sales of $13,506,405 for the year ended December 31, 2010, an increase of $3,451,835, or approximately 25.6%. This increase in net sales was due to our efforts in developing a new customer base, which includes hospitals, community medical centers and medical organizations, as well as an increase in demand from our existing customers.  We have been successful in promoting our “LiKang” brand products and have received continuous brand recognition from the market. Our sales volume of hand disinfectant products increased significantly in 2011. Of our total net sales for the year ended December 31, 2011, $9,272,860, or approximately 55%, was attributable to related parties as compared to net sales of $6,989,387, or approximately 52%, for the year ended December 31, 2010.
 

 
- 28 -

 


Our sales to unrelated parties are in Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui provinces. The sales in other provinces in China are through our largest related party customer, Shanghai Zhongyou Medical Hi-tech Co., Ltd (“Zhongyou”). Zhongyou is a large and reputable medical supply and distribution company and, through our sales to Zhongyou, we were able to increase our sales by utilizing Zhongyou’s marketing and sales resources.
 
COST OF SALES
 
Cost of sales includes raw materials and manufacturing costs, which include labor, rent and an allocated portion of overhead expenses, such as utilities, directly related to product production. For the year ended December 31, 2011, cost of sales amounted to $9,529,720, or approximately 56.2% of net sales, as compared to the cost of sales of $6,942,366, or approximately 51.4% of net sales for the year ended December 31, 2010.  The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of sales was mainly due to the increase in sales volume, as well as the increase in the price of raw materials, worker’s salary and other manufacturing overhead.
 
GROSS PROFIT
 
Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $7,428,520, or approximately 43.8% of net revenue, as compared to $6,564,039, or approximately 48.6% of net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease in gross profit margin was mainly due to the increased cost of revenue as a percentage of net revenue as well as the decrease in the selling price.
 
OPERATING EXPENSES
 
Total operating expenses consisted of selling, general and administrative expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2011, total operating expenses were $4,634,043, a decrease of $510,306, or approximately 9.9%, from total operating expenses of $5,144,349 for the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
NONCONTROLLING INTEREST
 
  On February 15, 2008, we entered into a stock purchase agreement with Ecolab, pursuant to which Ecolab purchased and Linkwell Tech sold 888,889 of its shares, or 10% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Linkwell Tech, for a total of $2,000,000. On March 28, 2008 and June 4, 2008, Linkwell Tech received $200,000 and $1,388,559, respectively, from Ecolab. Linkwell Tech received a total of $2,000,000 from Ecolab, inclusive of a $400,000 loan that Ecolab released to Linkwell Tech and accrued interest of $11,441. On May 31, 2008, Linkwell Tech and Ecolab entered into the Linkwell Tech Group Inc. Stockholders Agreement, whereby both of our Company and Ecolab are subject to, and are the beneficiaries of, certain pre-emptive rights, transfer restrictions and take-along rights relating to the shares of Linkwell Tech that our Company and Ecolab each hold. As of May 31, 2008, the principal and accrued interest of $11,441 on the short-term $400,000 loan became part of Ecolab’s investment and no longer needed to be repaid. After this transaction, Ecolab became a 10% minority interest holder of Linkwell Tech. For the year ended December 31, 2011, we had a non-controlling interest expense of $279,703 as compared to $124,259 in 2010.
 
NET INCOME 
 
Our net income for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $1,888,286 compared to $938,404 for the year ended December 31, 2010, an increase of $949,882 or 101.2%.  Net income as a percentage of revenue was 11.1% for the year ended December 31, 2011, while it was 6.9% for the year ended December 31, 2010. This increase in net income was attributable to an increase in sales. 
  
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, our working capital increased $1,997,311, or approximately 15.1%, from $13,214,658 on December 31, 2010 to $15,211,969 on December 31, 2011. With the expansion of our business, we anticipate the need to utilize our capital resources in the near future. In addition to our working capital, we intend to obtain required capital through a combination of bank loans and the sale of our equity securities.

 
- 29 -

 


 
We currently have no material commitments for capital expenditures. As of December 31, 2011, we had a total of $1,587,075 in outstanding short-term loans, which will mature in July 2012. Other than these working capital and loans, we presently have no other alternative capital resources available to us. We plan to build additional product lines and upgrade our manufacturing facilities in order to expand our production capacity and improve the quality of our products. Based on our preliminary estimates, upgrades and expansion will require additional capital of approximately $1,000,000.
 
We may need to raise additional capital in order to meet the demands described above. We may raise additional capital through the sale of our equity securities. There can be no assurances that any additional debt or equity financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all. The inability to obtain debt or equity financing could have a material adverse effect on our operating results, and as a result, we could be required to cease or significantly reduce our operations, seek a merger partner or sell additional securities on terms that may be disadvantageous to our shareholders.

The increase in cash outflow in the year ended December 31, 2011 was mainly a result of an increase in accounts receivable and other receivables outstanding as well as increase in certain prepayments, despite the fact that we had an increase in net income in 2011 compared to the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
NET CASH FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES

NET CASH FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES
 
Net cash from financing activities was $1,627,240 for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to net cash from financing activities of $311,608 for the year ended December 31, 2010. In the year ended December 31, 2011, the cash inflow was primarily a result of $379,820 for amounts due to related parties, an $860,352 for amounts due from related parties and $387,069 in proceeds from short-term bank loans. In comparison to the year ended December 31, 2010, for which we had a $723,835 cash inflow from short-term loans, a $820,147 cash inflow from due to related parties, and a $1,855,590 cash outflow resulting from due from related parties.
 
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”)  requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
 

 
- 30 -

 


We base our estimates and judgments on historical experiences and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting our consolidated financial statements, we believe the following critical accounting policies involve the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments: allowance for doubtful accounts; income taxes; stock-based compensation; asset impairment and option value.
While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements, we believe the following accounting policies are the most critical to help develop a full understanding and evaluation of our management’s discussion and analysis.
 
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
 
As of December 31, 2011, our total accounts receivable balances (net) amounted to $12,651,347, including $2,707,574 from third parties and $9,943,773 from related parties. A detailed aging table for these accounts receivable is presented below:

As of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the we established, based on a review of our related party accounts receivable outstanding balances, allowances for doubtful accounts in the amounts of $789,079 and $598,034, respectively.
 
As is customary in the PRC, we extend relatively long payment terms to our customers as compared with those customary in the United States, with sales to both third parties and related parties generally requiring payment within four to six months.  For the year ended December 31, 2011, the average time of payment on accounts receivable from related parties was about nine months.  Based upon our long-standing relationship with these related parties and their respective principals, we believe that related party receivables are collectible.  To the best of our knowledge, there is no company-related issue with respect to any related party that might be delaying payment, nor are there any negative issues impacting our relationship with any related party.

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to reduce amounts to their estimated realizable value. A considerable amount of judgment is required when we assess the realization of accounts receivable, including assessing the probability of collection and the current credit-worthiness of each customer. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, an additional provision for doubtful accounts could be required. We initially record a provision for doubtful accounts based on our past experiences, and we then adjust this provision at the end of each reporting period based on a detailed assessment of our accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts. In estimating the provision for doubtful accounts, we consider, among other factors: (i) the aging of the accounts receivable; (ii) trends within and ratios involving the age of the accounts receivable; (iii) the customer mix in each of the aging categories and the nature of the receivable; (iv) our historical provision for doubtful accounts; (v) the credit worthiness of the customer; and (vi) the economic conditions of the customer's industry as well as general economic conditions.

REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
Our revenue recognition policies are in compliance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104 (codified in FASB ASC Topic 480). We record revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The following policies reflect specific criteria for our various revenue streams.
 
Our revenue from the sale of products to related parties are recorded when the goods are shipped to the customers from our related parties. Upon shipment, title passes, and collectability is reasonably assured. We receive purchase orders from our related parties on an as needed basis from the related party customers. Generally, the related party does not hold our inventory. If the related party has inventory on hand at the end of a reporting period, the sale is reversed and the inventory is included in our balance sheet.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
We account for income taxes in accordance with Accounting for Income Taxes, which prescribes the use of the liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. We then assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and to the extent we believe that recovery is not likely, we establish a valuation allowance. To the extent we establish a valuation allowance, or increase or decrease in this allowance in a period, we increase or decrease our income tax provision in our statement of operations accordingly. If any of our estimates of our prior period taxable income or loss prove to be incorrect, material differences could impact the amount and timing of income tax benefits or payments for any period.
 
We currently operate in the PRC, however, our operations could change in the near future and we could be subject to tax liability involving a consideration of uncertainties in the application and interpretation of complex tax regulations in a multitude of jurisdictions across operations in other countries.
 
We recognize potential liabilities and record tax liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues in the U.S. and other tax jurisdictions based upon our estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. The tax liabilities are a reflected net of realized tax loss carry forwards. We adjust these reserves upon specific events; however, due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is different from our current estimate of the tax liabilities. If our estimate of tax liabilities proves to be less than the ultimate assessment, an additional charge to expense would result. If payment of these amounts ultimately proves to be less than the recorded amounts, the reversal of the liabilities would result in tax benefits being recognized in the period when the contingency has been resolved and the liabilities are no longer necessary.
 
Changes in tax laws, regulations, agreements and treaties, foreign currency exchange restrictions or our level of operations or profitability in each taxing jurisdiction could also have an impact upon the amount of income taxes that we provide during any given year.
 
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)
 
Our functional currency is the Chinese Yuan - Renminbi (“RMB”). For financial reporting purposes, RMB is translated into United States dollars (“USD”) as the reporting currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the reporting period. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of shareholders' equity as “Accumulated other comprehensive income.” Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in income. There has been no significant fluctuation in exchange rate for the conversion of RMB to USD after the balance sheet date.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, “Testing Goodwill for Impairment.” ASU 2011-08 will allow companies to assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more-likely-than-not that goodwill might be impaired and whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test required under current accounting standards. ASU 2011-08 will be effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating this guidance, but do not expect the adoption will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income: Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” ASU 2011-05 will require companies to present the components of net income and other comprehensive income either as one continuous statement or as two consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. ASU 2011-05 does not change the items which must be reported in other comprehensive income, how such items are measured or when they must be reclassified to net income. ASU 2011-05 will be effective for the first interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Further, in December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, “Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05.” We believe the adoption of this guidance concerns disclosure only and will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. 
 
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.” ASU 2011-04 changes the wording used to describe the requirements under U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in order to improve consistency in the application and description of fair value between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). ASU 2011-04 clarifies how the concepts of highest and best use and valuation premise in a fair value measurement are relevant only when measuring the fair value of nonfinancial assets and are not relevant when measuring the fair value of financial assets or of liabilities. In addition, ASU 2011-04 expanded the disclosures for the unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements, requiring quantitative information to be disclosed related to (1) the valuation processes used, (2) the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs and the interrelationships between those unobservable inputs, and (3) use of a nonfinancial asset in a way that differs from the asset's highest and best use. ASU 2011-04 will be effective for the first interim and annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2011 and early adoption is prohibited. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new accounting update on our consolidated financial statements. 
   
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
 
We have not entered into any other financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties.  We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our equity securities and classified as shareholder’s equity or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements.  Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity.  We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
 
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2011. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rule 13a-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 that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’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 its 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 the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2011, our principal executive officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that (i) information required to be disclosed by our Company in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure by our Company; and (ii) information required to be disclosed by our Company in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specific in the Securities and Exchange Act rules and forms.
 
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the company. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals and includes those policies and procedures that:
 
•     Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
 
•     Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of our Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

 
- 34 -

 


 
•     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.
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.
 
Based on our assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting is not effective due to a material weakness. This material weakness is that all of our employees and accounting staff are located in the PRC and we do not presently have a chief financial officer, controller or similarly titled senior financial officer who is bilingual and experienced in the application of U.S. GAAP. We have taken the steps to eliminate this material weakness including the hiring of additional accounting consulting staff to review and oversee our application of generally accepted accounting principles in the United States to bring additional financial expertise to our organization and to facilitate the flow of information to our independent accountants. This accounting consulting staff has assisted us in implementing additional practices to ensure that we (i) properly accrue undeclared and unpaid dividends, (ii) properly record related party transactions, and (iii) properly account for changes in loans payable. However, until we expand our full-time staff to include a bilingual senior financial officer who has the requisite experience necessary, as well as supplement the accounting knowledge of our staff, notwithstanding the guidance provided to us by the accounting consulting staff we could continue to have material weaknesses in our disclosure controls that may lead to restatements of our financial statements.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Committees of the Board of Directors
 
Our Board of Directors has not established any committees, including an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee or a Nominating Committee or any committees performing a similar function. The functions of those committees are being undertaken by our entire Board of Directors as a whole. Because we do not have any independent directors, our Board of Directors believes that the establishment of committees would not provide any benefits to our Company and could be considered more form than substance.
 
We do not have a policy regarding the consideration of any director candidates which may be recommended by our stockholders, including the minimum qualifications for director candidates, nor has our Board of Directors established a process for identifying and evaluating director nominees. We have not adopted a policy regarding the handling of any potential recommendation of director candidates by our stockholders, including the procedures to be followed. Our Board of Directors has not considered or adopted any of these policies as we have never received a recommendation from any stockholder for any candidate to serve on our Board of Directors. Given that all of our operations are located in the PRC and our lack of directors and officers insurance coverage, we do not anticipate that any of our stockholders will make such a recommendation in the near future. While there have been no nominations of additional directors proposed, in the event such a proposal is made, all members of our Board of Directors will participate in the consideration of director nominees.
 
None of our directors is an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K . In general, an “audit committee financial expert” is an individual member of the audit committee or Board of Directors who:
 
· Understands generally accepted accounting principles and financial statements,
· Is able to assess the general application of such principles in connection with accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves,
· Has experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial statements comparable to the breadth and complexity to our financial statements,
· Understands internal controls over financial reporting, and
· Understands audit committee functions.
 
Our Board of Directors is comprised of individuals who were integral to our formation and who are involved in our day to day operations. While we would prefer that one or more of our directors be an audit committee financial expert, none of these individuals who have been key to our development have professional backgrounds in finance or accounting. When we are able to expand our Board of Directors to include one or more independent directors, we intend to establish an Audit Committee. It is our intention that one or more of these independent directors will also qualify as an audit committee financial expert. Our securities are not quoted on an exchange that has requirements that a majority of our Board members be independent and we are not currently otherwise subject to any law, rule or regulation requiring that all or any portion of our Board of Directors include “independent” directors, nor is our Board of Directors required to establish or maintain an Audit Committee or any other committee.

Stock Option Plans
 
2005 Equity Compensation Plan (the “Plan”)
 
Our Board of Directors adopted the Plan on June 28, 2005.  Our officers, directors, key employees and consultants are eligible to receive stock grants and non-qualified options under the Plan. Only our employees are eligible to receive incentive stock options.  The purpose of the Plan is to encourage stock ownership by our officers, directors, key employees and consultants, and to give such persons a greater personal interest in the success of our business and an added incentive to continue to advance and contribute to us.  Shares used for stock grants and options may be authorized and unissued shares or shares reacquired by us, including shares purchased in the open market.  Shares covered by options which terminate unexercised will again become available for grant as additional options, without decreasing the maximum number of shares issuable under the Plan, although such shares may also be used by us for other purposes.
 
Our Board of Directors, or a committee of the Board, administers the Plan including, without limitation, the selection of the persons who will be awarded stock grants and granted options, the type of options to be granted, the number of shares subject to each option and the exercise price.  Plan options may either be options qualifying as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code, or non-qualified options.  In addition, the plan allows for the inclusion of a reload option provision, which permits an eligible person to pay the exercise price of the option with shares of Common Stock owned by the eligible person and receive a new option to purchase shares of Common Stock equal in number to the tendered shares.  Any stock option granted under the Plan must provide for an exercise price of not less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant; provided, that the exercise price of any incentive stock option granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of our outstanding Common Stock must not be less than 110% of fair market value on the date of the grant.
 

 
- 39 -

 


The term of each option and the manner in which it may be exercised is determined by the Board of Directors or the committee administering the Plan; provided, that no option may be exercisable more than 10 years after the date of its grant and, in the case of an incentive stock option granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of the Common Stock, no more than five years after the date of the grant.  The Plan provides that, with respect to incentive stock options, the aggregate fair market value (determined as of the time the option is granted) of the shares of Common Stock, with respect to which incentive stock options are first exercisable by any option holder during any calendar year shall not exceed $1,000,000.
  
The Plan provides that, if our outstanding shares of Common Stock are increased, decreased, exchanged or otherwise adjusted due to a share dividend, forward or reverse share split, recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination or exchange of shares, an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made in the number or kind of shares subject to the Plan or subject to unexercised options and in the purchase price per share under such options.  Any adjustment, however, does not change the total purchase price payable for the shares subject to outstanding options.  In the event of our proposed dissolution or liquidation, a proposed sale of all or substantially all of our assets, a merger or tender offer for our shares of Common Stock, the Board of Directors may declare that each option granted under the Plan shall terminate as of a date to be fixed by the Board of Directors; provided that not less than 30 days written notice of the date so fixed shall be given to each participant holding an option, and each such participant shall have the right, during the period of 30 days preceding such termination, to exercise the participant's option, in whole or in part, including as to options not otherwise exercisable.
 
Options are exercisable by delivery of written notice to us stating the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which the option is being exercised, together with full payment of the purchase price therefor.  Payment is to be in the form of cash, certified or bank cashier’s checks, promissory notes secured by the shares issued through exercise of the related options, shares of Common Stock or in such other form or combination of forms which may be acceptable to the Board of Directors; provided, that any loan or guarantee by us of the purchase price may only be made upon resolution of the Board of Directors to the effect that such loan or guarantee is reasonably expected to benefit us.
 
All options are nonassignable and nontransferable, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, during the lifetime of the optionee, and may be exercised only by such optionee.  If an optionee shall die while being an employee or within three months after termination of employment by us due to his/her disability, retirement, or otherwise, such options may be exercised, to the extent that the optionee shall have been entitled to do so on the date of death or termination of employment, by the person or persons to whom the optionee’s right under the option pass by will or applicable law, or if no such person has such right, by his executors or administrators.
 
In the event of termination of employment due to the optionee’s death or disability, the optionee’s options may be exercised not later than the expiration date specified in the option or one year after the optionee’s death, whichever date is earlier, or in the event of termination of employment due to retirement or otherwise, not later than the expiration date specified in the option or one year after the optionee’s death, whichever date is earlier.  If an optionee is terminated by us because of disability and such optionee has not died within the following three months, the options may be exercised, to the extent that the optionee shall have been entitled to do so at the date of the termination of employment, at any time, or from time to time, but not later than the expiration date specified in the option or one year after termination of employment, whichever date is earlier.
 
If an optionee’s employment terminates for any reason other than death or disability, then the optionee may exercise his/her options to the same extent that the options were exercisable on the date of termination, for up to three months following such termination, or on or before the expiration date of the options, whichever occurs first.

On January 22, 2008, our Board of Directors approved and adopted an amendment to the Plan, subject to shareholder approval. On January 22, 2008, stockholders owning approximately 53.9% of the outstanding shares of our common stock approved the amendment to the Plan by action taken by written consent without a meeting in accordance with the Florida Business Corporation Act. No further vote of our stockholders is required to approve the amendment to the Plan. Such approval by our stockholders became effective 20 calendar days after the date such Information Statement was first mailed to our stockholders.
 
The amendment to the Plan increased the number of shares of our Common Stock with respect to which awards may be granted under the Plan from 5,000,000 to 15,000,000. On May 1, 2008, we entered into a two year agreement with China Health Capital Group, Inc. (“CHC”) to provide us with financial and investment services. In connection with this agreement, on June 24, 2008, we issued 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock under the Plan valued at $0.21 per share to CHC and recorded $420,000 as deferred compensation.
 
On May 14, 2011, we issued 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock under the Plan to two directors, which included 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock to Mr. Bian Xuelian and 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock to Mr. Guan Wei. We also issued 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock under the Plan to our employees, which included 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock to Mrs. Zong Qiqing and 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock to Mr. Wensheng Sun.
 
On February 13, 2012, our Board of Directors adopted and approved, by unanimous written consent, an amendment to the Plan, as amended, providing for the increase in the number of Common Stock available for issuance pursuant to the Plan from 15,000,000 to 24,000,000. On February 13, 2012, we received the approval, by written consent, of the holders of 53,373,470 shares of Common Stock, or 53.05% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding as of January 31, 2012 to the amendment of the Plan.
 
Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management
 
As of March 26, 2012, we had 105,605,475 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding. The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 26, 2012 by:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Linkwell Corporation and Subsidiaries
Shanghai, China
 
       We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Linkwell Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated 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 purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining on a test basis, evidence supporting the amount and disclosures in the combined financial statements. An audit also includes 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Linkwell Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operation and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

LINKWELL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND DECEMBER 31, 2010
 
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
ORGANIZATION
 
Linkwell Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Florida on October 11, 2000 under the name HBOA Holdings, Inc. (“HBOA”).
 
On May 2, 2005, the Company entered into and consummated a share exchange with all of the shareholders of Linkwell Tech Group, Inc. (“Linkwell Tech”). Pursuant to the share exchange, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Linkwell Tech’s common stock, in exchange for 36,273,470 shares of the Company’s common stock, which at closing represented approximately 87.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. As a result of the transaction, Linkwell Tech became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. For financial accounting purposes, the exchange of stock was treated as a recapitalization of the Company, with the former shareholders of the Company retaining 7,030,669 or approximately 12.5% of the outstanding stock. The consolidated financial statements reflect the change in the capital structure of the Company due to the recapitalization and in the operations of the Company and its subsidiaries for the periods presented.
 
Linkwell Tech was founded on June 22, 2004, as a Florida corporation. On June 30, 2004, Linkwell Tech acquired 90% of Shanghai LiKang Disinfectant High-Tech Company, Ltd. (“LiKang Disinfectant”), a PRC company, through a stock exchange. This transaction resulted in the formation of a U.S. holding company by the shareholders of LiKang Disinfectant as it did not result in a change in the underlying ownership interest of LiKang Disinfectant. LiKang Disinfectant is a science and technology enterprise founded in 1988. LiKang Disinfectant is involved in the development, production, marketing and sale, and distribution of disinfectant health care products.
 
On June 30, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment of its Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to Linkwell Corporation. The effective date of the name change was after close of business on August 16, 2005.
 
On March 25, 2008, the Company’s subsidiary, Linkwell Tech acquired the remaining 10% of Likang Disinfectant that it did not own. The purchase price for the remaining 10% interest in Likang Disinfectant was $684,057, consisting of $399,057 in cash and 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $285,000. The 10% interest in Likang Disinfectant had a value of $577,779 prior to the Company’s purchase. The $126,278 difference between purchase price and its value was deemed a dividend and deducted from retained earnings upon closing of the acquisition.
 
LiKang Disinfectant has developed a line of disinfectant product offerings which are utilized by the hospital and medical industry in China. LiKang Disinfectant regards hospital disinfectant products as the primary segment of its business and has developed and manufactured several series of products in the field of skin mucous disinfection, hand disinfection, surrounding articles disinfection, medical instruments disinfection and air disinfection.
 
On February 15, 2008, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement with Ecolab Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Ecolab”), pursuant to which Ecolab agreed to purchase 888,889 of shares of Linkwell Tech, or 10% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Linkwell Tech, for $2,000,000. On March 28, 2008 and June 4, 2008, Linkwell Tech received $200,000 and $1,388,559, respectively from Ecolab. Including a $400,000 loan that Linkwell Tech received from Ecolab and accrued interest thereon of $11,441, Linkwell Tech received a total investment of $2,000,000 from Ecolab. On May 31, 2008, the Company, Linkwell Tech and Ecolab entered into a Linkwell Tech Group Inc. Stockholders Agreement, whereby both the Company and Ecolab are subject to, and beneficiaries of, certain pre-emptive rights, transfer restrictions and take along rights relating to the shares of Linkwell Tech that the Company and Ecolab each hold. As of May 31, 2008, the principal and accrued interest of $11,441 on the short-term $400,000 loan became part of Ecolab’s investment and does not need to be repaid.
 
On March 5, 2009, the Company’s subsidiary, Likang Disinfectant acquired 100% of Likang Biological, a company owned by related parties. Likang Biological is also engaged in the development, manufacture, sale and distribution of disinfectant health care products primarily in the medical industry in China.

 
F - 7

 


 
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are expressed in US dollars. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidation.
 
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year to conform to current year’s presentation. The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of its 90% owned subsidiary, Linkwell Tech, and Linkwell Tech’s 100% owned subsidiaries LiKang Disinfectant and Likang Biological. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
 
USE OF ESTIMATES
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 include the allowance for doubtful accounts, useful life of property and equipment, and inventory reserve.
 
Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, “Consolidation,” which established new standards governing the accounting for and reporting of noncontrolling interests (NCIs) in partially owned consolidated subsidiaries and the loss of control of subsidiaries. Certain provisions of this standard indicate, among other things, that NCIs (previously referred to as minority interests) be treated as a separate component of equity, not as a liability (as was previously the case), that increases and decreases in the parent’s ownership interest that leave control intact be treated as equity transactions rather than as step acquisitions or dilution gains or losses, and that losses of a partially owned consolidated subsidiary be allocated to the NCI even when such allocation might result in a deficit balance. This standard also requires changes to certain presentation and disclosure requirements. Losses attributable to the NCI in a subsidiary may exceed the NCI’s interests in the subsidiary’s equity. The excess attributable to the NCI is attributed to those interests. The NCI shall continue to be attributed its share of losses even if that attribution results in a deficit NCI balance.
 
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, advances from customers, short-term loans payable and amounts due from or to related parties, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:
 
Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
 
Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.
 
Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
 
The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” and ASC 825.

 
F - 8

 


 
As of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company did not identify any assets and liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheet at fair value.
 
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
 
For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less and money market accounts to be cash equivalents.
 
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
 
The Company has a policy of reserving for uncollectible accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company established, based on a review of its third party accounts receivable outstanding balances, allowances for doubtful accounts in the amounts of $937,611 and $952,232, respectively. As of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company established, based on a review of its related party accounts receivable outstanding balances, allowances for doubtful accounts in the amounts of $789,079 and $598,034, respectively. Majority of the allowances is on accounts receivable from Shanghai Zhongyou Pharmaceutical High Tech Co., Ltd.
 
As is customary in the medical products industry in PRC, the Company extends relatively long payment terms to our customers as compared with those customary in the United States, with sales to both third parties and related parties generally requiring payment within four to six months. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the average time of payment on accounts receivable from related parties was about nine months. Based upon the Company’s long-standing relationship with these related parties and their respective principals, the Company believes that related party receivables are collectible. To the best of the Company’s knowledge, there is no company-related issue with respect to any related party that might be delaying payment, nor are there any negative issues impacting its relationship with any related party.
 
INVENTORIES
 
Inventories, consisting of raw materials, work in process and finished goods related to the Company’s products are stated at the lower of cost or market utilizing the weighted average method. The valuation of inventory requires the Company to estimate obsolete or excess inventory based on analysis of future demand for our products. Due to the nature of the Company’s business and our target market, levels of inventory in the distribution channel, changes in demand due to price changes from competitors and introduction of new products are not significant factors when estimating the Company’s excess or obsolete inventory. If inventory costs exceed expected market value due to obsolescence or lack of demand, inventory write-downs may be recorded as deemed necessary by management for the difference between the cost and the market value in the period that impairment is first recognized. In 2011, the Company wrote off $177,122 obsolete inventory.
 
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
 
Property and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets, which range from five to twenty years. The cost of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred and major replacements and improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in the income statement in the year of disposition.
 

 
F - 9

 

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
 
Long-lived assets, which include property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
 
Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value is generally determined by using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable. Based on its review, the Company believes that, during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, there were no significant impairment of its long-lived assets.
 
ADVANCES FROM CUSTOMERS
 
As of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, advances from customers were $365,993 and $286,914, respectively. These advances consisted of prepayments from third party customers to the Company for merchandise that had not yet been shipped by the Company. The Company will recognize the prepayments as revenue as customers take delivery of the goods, in compliance with its revenue recognition policy.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
The Company utilizes FASB ASC Topic 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for expected future tax consequences of events that were included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
 
The Company adopted the provisions of “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (codified in FASB ASC Topic 740). When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as interest expenses and penalties are classified in other expenses in the statements of income. At December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company did not take any uncertain positions that would necessitate the recording of tax related liability.
 
BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE
 
The Company presents net income per share (“EPS”) in accordance with “Earnings per Share” (codified in FASB ASC Topic 740). Accordingly, basic income per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding as well as common share equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock method for stock options and warrants and the if-converted method for convertible notes. The Company has made an accounting policy election to use the if-converted method for convertible securities that are eligible to common stock dividends, if declared. If the if-converted method was anti-dilutive (that is, the if-converted method resulted in a higher net income per common share amount than basic net income per share calculated under the two-class method), then the two-class method was used to compute diluted net income per common share, including the effect of common share equivalents. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur based on the exercise of stock options or warrants, unless such exercise would be anti-dilutive, with an exercise price of less than the average market price of the Company’s common stock.

REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104 (codified in FASB ASC Topic 605). The Company records revenue when an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. The following policies reflect specific criteria for the various revenue streams of the Company: the Company’s revenues from the sale of products are recorded when the goods are shipped, title passes, and collectability is reasonably assured.
 
The Company’s revenues from the sale of products to related parties are recorded when the goods are shipped to the customers from our related parties. Upon shipment, title passes, and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company receives purchase orders from our related parties on an as-needed basis from the related party customers. Generally, the related party does not hold the Company’s inventory. If the related party has inventory on hand at the end of a reporting period, the sale is reversed and the inventory is included on the Company’s balance sheet.
 
STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS
 
In accordance with SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows,” codified in FASB ASC Topic 230, cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows may not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.
 
CONCENTRATION OF BUSINESS AND CREDIT RISK
 
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions in the U.S. and in China. The majority of the Company’s bank accounts in banks located in the PRC are not covered by any type of protection similar to that provided by the FDIC on funds held in U.S banks. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.
 
Certain other financial instruments, which subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist of accounts and other receivables. The Company does not require collateral or other security to support these receivables. The Company conducts periodic reviews of its customers’ financial condition and customer payment practices to minimize collection risk on accounts receivable. For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, sales to related parties accounted for 55% and 52% of net revenue, respectively.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION AND COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
 
The Company primarily operates in the PRC. The financial position and results of operations of the subsidiaries are determined using the local currency (“Renminbi” or “RMB”) as the functional currency.
 
Translation from RMB into United States dollars (“USD” or “$”) for reporting purposes is performed by translating the results of operations denominated in foreign currency at the weighted average rates of exchange during the reporting periods. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet dates are translated at the market rate of exchange in effect at that date. The registered equity capital denominated in the functional currency is translated at the historical rate of exchange at the time of capital contribution. All translation adjustments resulting from the translation of the financial statements into USD are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity. The exchange rates used in translation from RMB to USD amount were published by People’s Bank of the People’s Republic of China.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 
The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123” (codified in FASB ASC Topics 718 & 505). The Company recognizes in the income statement the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees and non-employees.
 
NON-EMPLOYEE STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
 
The cost of stock-based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the instruments issued in exchange for such services, whichever is more readily determinable, using the measurement date guidelines enumerated in Emerging Issues Task Force Issue, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services”.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS
 
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and included in general and administrative expenses. These costs primarily consist of cost of materials used and salaries paid for the development department of the Company and fees paid to third parties. Research and development costs for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were $180,232 and $311,268, respectively.
 
SEGMENT REPORTING
 
SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" (codified in FASB ASC Topic 280) requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company.
 
SFAS 131 has no effect on the Company’s financial statements as substantially all of the Company’s operations are conducted in one industry segment. All of the Company’s assets are located in the PRC.
 
RECLASSIFICATIONS
 
Certain prior year amounts were reclassified to conform to the manner of presentation in the current period.
 
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, "Testing Goodwill for Impairment." ASU 2011-08 will allow companies to assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more-likely-than-not that goodwill might be impaired and whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test required under current accounting standards. ASU 2011-08 will be effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance, but does not expect the adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
 
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, "Comprehensive Income: Presentation of Comprehensive Income." ASU 2011-05 will require companies to present the components of net income and other comprehensive income either as one continuous statement or as two consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. ASU 2011-05 does not change the items which must be reported in other comprehensive income, how such items are measured or when they must be reclassified to net income. ASU 2011-05 will be effective for the first interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Further, in December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, "Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05." The Company believes the adoption of this guidance concerns disclosure only and will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. 
 
In May 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-04, "Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs." ASU 2011-04 changes the wording used to describe the requirements in generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in order to improve consistency in the application and description of fair value between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). ASU 2011-04 clarifies how the concepts of highest and best use and valuation premise in a fair value measurement are relevant only when measuring the fair value of nonfinancial assets and are not relevant when measuring the fair value of financial assets or of liabilities. In addition, ASU 2011-04 expanded the disclosures for the unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements, requiring quantitative information to be disclosed related to (1) the valuation processes used, (2) the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs and the interrelationships between those unobservable inputs, and (3) use of a nonfinancial asset in a way that differs from the asset’s highest and best use. ASU 2011-04 will be effective for the first interim and annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2011 and early adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the future impact of this new accounting update on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 6 – INVESTMENT AND DEPOSITS
 
At December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, deposits mainly represented $554,000, through the issuance of 4,000,000 shares  of the Company’s’ stock at $0.136 per share, for the deposit of purchasing an acquisition target, Inner Mongolia Wuhai Chengtian Chemical Technology Co., Ltd., (“Wuhai Chengtian”). However, the acquisition was cancelled in 2011, Wuhai Chengtian, which changed name to Inner Mongolia Likang Biological Co., Ltd. (“Wuhai Likang”) in 2011, increased the registered capital from RMB 9 million to RMB 50 million, the deposit was not going to refund to the Company by Wuhai Likang’s selling shareholder; accordingly the deposit of $544,000 together with capital injection of $728,467 by the Company to Wuhai Chengtian which the Company initially treated it as due from related party, have been reclassified into the Company’s investment which was accounted for under the cost method as a result of the Company’s 9.18% ownership in Wuhai Likang. There was no significant impairment of this investment at December 31, 2011.
 
NOTE 7 - OTHER RECEIVABLES
 
At December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had other receivables of $3,926,230 (including $3,753,432 to Wuhai Likang) and $152,337, respectively. Wuhai Likang was a related party of the Company in 2010 due to the Company being in the process of acquiring a controlling position in Wuhai Likang. On December 30, 2009, the Company issued 4,000,000 shares of common stock (valued for $544,000) and cash RMB 3.15 million ($499,929) together with a previous capital contribution of patent of RMB 1.44 million ($228,538) in exchange for acquiring a 51% equity interest in Wuhai Likang in China which was accounted for as a deposit. However, the acquisition target has increased its registered capital to RMB 50 million by the contribution of new investors in April 2010, which resulted in a decrease of the equity interest owned by Linkwell to 9.18%. With this reduction in ownership, and reduction in influence over Wuhai Likang, the Company’s management has determined that Wuhai Likang is not deemed a related party.
 
Wuhai Likang is a major supplier and strategic partner to the Company. The Company has a large demand for a raw material which is produced from Wuhai Likang’s waste recycling project. Due to the need for this raw material, the Company made advances to Wuhai LiKang’s to support its waste recycling project which ultimately benefits the Company. As of December 31, 2010, the Company has made advances totaling $1,567,337 to provide operating funds to Wuhai Likang. The portion of such advances to provide operating funds to Wuhai Likang was classified as due from related party as of December 31, 2010 pending approval of the acquisition.
 
As of December 31, 2011, government approval for this acquisition had not occurred and is unable to be completed. Due to the existing shareholders of Wuhai Likang increased capital contribution, the Company’s ownership in Wuhai Likang decreased to approximately 9.18% and influence over Wuhai Likang has been reduced, the Company’s management has determined that Wuhai Likang is not deemed a related party. Accordingly, the due from related party of $1,567,337 as of December 31, 2010 (of which, $728,467 has been reclassified into investment in 2011) and the additional approximately $2.84 million advances made during the year ended December 31, 2011, have been classified as other receivables as of December 31, 2011. The advance to Wuhai Likang was guaranteed by Wuhai LiKang’s 52,249 square meters land, 22,360 square meters building and RMB 4.73 million (US$750,686) equipment.

On February 15, 2008, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement with Ecolab pursuant to which Ecolab agreed to purchase and Linkwell Tech agreed to sell 888,889 of its shares, or 10% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Linkwell Tech for $2,000,000. On May 31, 2008, the Company, Linkwell Tech and Ecolab entered into a Stockholders Agreement (“Stockholders Agreement”), whereby both the Company and Ecolab are subject to, and the beneficiaries of, certain pre-emptive rights, transfer restrictions and take along rights relating to the shares of Linkwell Tech that the Company and Ecolab each hold.
 
Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement, Ecolab has an option (“Put Option”) to sell the 888,889 shares (“Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.001, of Linkwell Tech that Ecolab purchased under the Stock Purchase Agreement back to Linkwell Tech in exchange for, as determined by Linkwell Tech, cash in the amount of $2,400,000 or the lesser of (a) 10,000,000 shares of Linkwell common stock, or (b) such number of shares of Linkwell common stock as is determined by dividing 3,500,000 by the average daily closing price of Linkwell common stock for the twenty days on which Linkwell shares of common stock were traded on the OTC Bulletin Board prior to the date the Put Option is exercised (“Put Shares”). The Put Option is exercisable during the period between the second and fourth anniversaries of May 30, 2008, or upon the occurrence of certain events including material breach by Linkwell Tech or its subsidiaries, of the Consulting Agreement, Distributor Agreements or Sales Representative Agreement entered into in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement.

NOTE 12 - INCOME TAXES
 
The Company is subject to income taxes by entity on income arising in or derived from the tax jurisdiction in which each entity is domiciled.
 
The Company and Linkwell Tech were incorporated in the U.S. and have net operating losses (NOL) for income tax purposes. The Company and Linkwell Tech had net operating loss carry forwards for income taxes of approximately $2.92 million as of December 31, 2011, which may be available to reduce future years’ taxable income as NOL’s can be carried forward up to 20 years from the year the loss is incurred. Under IRC Section 382, certain of these loss carry-forward amounts may be limited due to the more than 50% change in ownership which took place during 2004. The Company’s management believes that the realization of benefits from these losses are uncertain due to the Company’s limited operating history and continuing losses. Accordingly, a 100% valuation allowance has been provided on the deferred tax asset of approximately $1.11 million.
 
Likang Disinfectant and Likang Biological are governed by the Income Tax Law of the PRC concerning privately-run enterprises, which are generally subject to tax at a statutory rate of 25% on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriate tax adjustments. Likang Disinfectant is subject to a preferential income tax rate of 12.5% for 2010 and 15% for 2011 as its high-tech tax status; Likang Biological is subject to an income tax rate of 25% since 2010.

NOTE 13 - STATUTORY RESERVES
 
Pursuant to the PRC’s corporate law effective as of January 1, 2006, the Company is now only required to maintain one statutory reserve by appropriating from its after-tax profit before declaration or payment of dividends. The statutory reserve represents restricted retained earnings.
 
Surplus Reserve Fund
 
The Company’s Chinese subsidiaries are now only required to transfer 10% of their net income, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, to a statutory surplus reserve fund until such reserve balance reaches 50% of the Company’s registered capital. The Company’s Chinese subsidiaries are not required to make appropriations to other reserve funds and do not have any intention to make appropriations to any other reserve funds. There are no legal requirements in the PRC to fund these reserves by transfer of cash to restricted accounts, and the Company’s Chinese subsidiaries do not do so.
 
The surplus reserve fund is non-distributable other than during liquidation, can be used to fund previous years’ losses, if any, and may be utilized for business expansion or converted into share capital by issuing new shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their shareholding or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the remaining reserve balance after such issue is not less than 25% of the registered capital.
 
Common Welfare Fund
 
The common welfare fund is a voluntary fund that provides that the Company can elect to transfer 5% to 10% of its net income to this fund. This fund can only be utilized on capital items for the collective benefit of the Company’s employees, such as construction of dormitories, cafeteria facilities, and other staff welfare facilities. This fund is non-distributable other than upon liquidation. The Company did not make any transfer to this fund during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

NOTE 17 – OPERATING RISK
 
(a) Country risk
 
Currently, the Company’s revenues are primarily derived from the sale of a line of disinfectant products to customers in the PRC. The Company hopes to expand its operations to countries outside the PRC; however, such expansion has not commenced and there are no assurances that the Company will be able to achieve such an expansion successfully. Therefore, a downturn or stagnation in the economic environment of the PRC could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition.
 

 
F - 19

 


(b) Products risk
 
In addition to competing with other domestic manufacturers of disinfectant products, the Company competes with larger U.S. companies who have greater funds available for expansion, marketing, research and development and the ability to attract more qualified personnel. These U.S. companies may be able to offer products at a lower price. There can be no assurance that the Company will remain competitive should this occur.
 
(c) Exchange risk
 
The Company cannot guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain steady; therefore, there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of profit for two comparable periods. This is because a fluctuating exchange rate may post a higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of Renminbi converted to US dollars on that day. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in the political and economic environments without notice.
 
(d) Political risk
 
Currently, the PRC is in a period of growth and is openly promoting business development in order to bring more business into the country. Additionally, the PRC currently allows a Chinese corporation to be owned by a United States corporation. If the PRC government changes laws or regulations relating to the ownership of a Chinese corporation, then the Company’s ability to operate its PRC subsidiaries could be affected.
