NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
 
China YCT International Group, Inc. (“China YCT”) was incorporated in the State of Florida, in the United States of America (the “USA”) in January 1989, and reincorporated in the State of Delaware on April 4, 2007.  China YCT principally operates through directly owned subsidiaries: Landway Nano Bio-Tech, Inc. (100% owned), incorporated in Delaware, in the USA, and Shandong Spring Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (“Shandong Spring”), (100% owned), incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). China YCT International Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company.”
 
China YCT, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Shandong Spring, is engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing and selling its own medicine from gingko extract, and other dietary supplement products in the P.R. China.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of presentation
 
The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).
 
Principles of consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of China YCT, Landway Nano and its wholly owned subsidiary, Shandong Spring.  All inter-company transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
 
Use of estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include: the valuation of inventory, and estimated useful lives and impairment of property and equipment and intangible assets.
 
Cash and cash equivalents
 
For the purposes of the statement of cash flow, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Inventory
 
Inventory is primarily composed of raw materials and packing materials for manufacturing, work in process, and finished goods. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market with cost determined on a weighted average basis. Management compares the cost of inventory with the market value and an allowance is made to write down the inventory to market value, if lower than cost.
 
Property and equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost. The cost of an asset is comprised of its purchase price and any direct attributable costs of bring the asset to its present working condition and locations for its intended use. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-like method over the following useful lives:
 
Building
 
30-35 years
Machinery, equipment and automobiles
 
7-15 years
Furniture and fixtures
 
7-10 years
 
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Intangible Assets
 
(i)  
Land Use Rights:
 
All land in the PRC is owned by the government and cannot be sold to any individual or company.  However, the government may grant a “land use right” for occupying, developing and using land. The Company records land use rights obtained as intangible assets at cost, which is amortized evenly over the grant period of 50 years.
 
(ii)  
Patents:
   
In March 2010, the Company purchased one patent from Shandong YCT Corp.  The patent is the Company’s exclusive right to use an aglycone type and purification method of biotransformation in the gingko product manufacturing process for a period of 20 years from the patent application date.  The patent was recorded at cost when purchased, and is being amortized over the shorter of its remaining legal life, 16.5 years, or its useful life, on a straight-line basis.
 
In October 2011, two patents were transferred to the Company based on a purchase agreement signed with Jining Tianruitong Technology development Company, Limited on October 26, 2010; which are “Treatment to ischemic encephalopathy and its preparation method” (ZL200510045001.9) and “Chinese herbal medicine compound to treat renal insufficiency and its preparation” (ZL200710013301.8). The patents were recorded at cost when purchased, and are being amortized over the shorter of the remaining legal lives, 13.75 years and 14.95 years, respectively; or their useful lives, on a straight-line basis.
 
Development costs of acer truncatum bunge planting
 
The Company has started development of the acer truncatum bunge planting bases and completed planting of 2,000Mu (1Mu is equal to approximately 666.67 square meters) for the quarter ended September 30, 2013. The agricultural product (e.g., seeds, oil extract, etc.) derived from the planting is intended to be the supply for an integrated usage,  including edible oil, protein, medicine and health care, tannin extract, industrial chemicals, nectar source, and specialty lumber, as well as for landscaping and conservation of soil and water.
 
The Company accounts for the development costs of the planting in accordance to ASC Codification 905.  Per ASC 905-360-25-3, limited-life land development costs and direct and indirect development costs of orchards, groves, vineyards, and intermediate-life plants shall be capitalized during the development period.  Per ASC 905-360-35-7, costs capitalized during the development period under paragraph 905-360-25-3 shall be depreciated over the estimated useful life of the land development or that of the tree, vine, or plant.
 
The planting is currently in the development stage with production expected in 2015; therefore, no depreciation expenses were recognized as of September 30, 2013.
 
Revenue recognition
 
The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104, included in the Codification as ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are recorded as customer deposits.
 
Unearned revenue
 
Revenue from the sale of goods or services is recognized at the time that goods are delivered or services are rendered. Receipts in advance for goods to be delivered or services to be rendered in a subsequent period are carried forward as unearned revenue.

Impairment of long-lived assets
 
The Company reviews and evaluates the net carrying value of its long-lived assets at least annually, or upon the occurrence of other events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Per ASC 360-10-35-21, a long-lived asset (asset group) shall be tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. Per ASC 360-10-35-17, an impairment loss shall be recognized only if the carrying amount of the long-lived asset (asset group) is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value.  The carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset (asset group).
 
Income taxes
 
The Company accounts for income tax under the asset and liability method as stipulated by ASC 740 formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (”SFAS”) No. 109, “ Accounting for Income Taxes ”, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of the events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred Income taxes are recognized for all significant temporary differences between tax and financial statements bases of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are established against net deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company did not recognize any deferred tax amount at September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013.
 
China YCT International, Inc. is a holding company of Shandong Spring Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd and does not have any operating activities.  Although the contract of the acquisition of the US patent was executed by the holding company, in substance, the patent was acquired and is used by the Company’s operating entity in China.  For the same reason, the amortization of the patent was a deduction to the Chinese operating entity’s tax liability.  Therefore, the Company does not incur any US income tax liabilities.
 
Value-added tax
 
Sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of a Value-Added Tax (“VAT”). All of the Company’s products that are sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 17% of the gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing their finished product.
 
The Company recorded net VAT Payable in amount of $276,339 and $349,994 as of September 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, respectively.
 
Research and development
 
Research and development costs relate to the Company’s developing its intellectual property. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The costs of material and equipment that are acquired or constructed for research and development activities and have alternative future uses are classified as plant and equipment and are depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
 
The research and development expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $60,265 and $326,135, respectively.
 
The research and development expense for the six months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $647,524 and $548,700, respectively.

Mailing and handling costs
 
The Company accounts for mailing and handling fees in accordance with the FASB ASC 605-45 (Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No . 00-10 , Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs ).

For the six months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred $617,586 and $546,592 mailing and handling costs, respectively.
 
Stock Based Compensation
 
The Company measures compensation expense for its non-employee stock-based compensation under FASB ASC 718.  The fair value of the stock issued is used to measure the transaction, as this is more reliable than the fair value of the services received. Fair value is measured as the value of the Company’s common stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty has been reached or the counterparty’s performance is complete. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense.
 
Net income (loss) per share (“EPS”)
 
Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock (convertible preferred stock, forward contracts, warrants to purchase common stock, contingently issuable shares, common stock options and warrants and their equivalents using the treasury stock method) were exercised or converted into common stock.
 
There are nil and 31,610,679 common stock equivalents available for dilution purposes as of September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
 
Risks and uncertainties
 
The Company’s operations are carried out in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC’s economy. The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in the North America and Western Europe. The risks include political, economic and legal, and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accrued liabilities and short-term debt, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short maturities.
 
As of September 30, 2013, the Company did not identify any financial instruments that are required to be presented on the balance sheet at fair value other than those whose carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities.
 
Foreign currency translation
 
The accounts of the Company’s Chinese subsidiary are maintained in the RMB and the accounts related to the U.S. parent company are maintained in the USD. The accounts of the Chinese subsidiary were translated into USD in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 830 “Foreign Currency Matters,” with the RMB as the functional currency for the Chinese subsidiary. According to Topic 830, all assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date; stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of income items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income.” Gains and losses resulting from the translations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statements of income.

Recent accounting pronouncements
 
In July 2012, FASB issued an amendment to the FASB Codification Topic 350 – Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. The objective of the amendments in this Update is to reduce the cost and complexity of performing an impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets by simplifying how an entity tests those assets for impairment and to improve consistency in impairment testing guidance among long-lived asset categories. The amendments permit an entity first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test in accordance with Subtopic 350-30, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – General Intangibles Other than Goodwill. The more likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent. The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. The Company decided to adopt the amendment for the year starting with April 1, 2013. The Company does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a significant impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

Since September 2009, we started to engage in the production and distribution of our own non-prescription drug, Huoliyuan Capsule, which is patented in China, and developed distribution channels for the drug.  Our sales have increased since September 2009 as a result of the establishment of our manufacturing and distribution channels of Huoliyuan Capsule.  Since July 2010, the Company changed from being solely a distributor of Shandong YCT to both a manufacturer and distributor of our own products, the Huoliyuan Capsules.  As a result, we obtained new customers and expanded our sales of Huoliyuan Capsules.  The Huoliyuan Capsule product accounted for 67.4% of our revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to 59.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Cost of Goods Sold
 
Our costs of revenue were comprised primarily of the cost of finished goods we purchased from Shandong YCT, the manufacturing cost of Huoliyuan Capsules, and the raw materials we purchased from third party vendors. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, we had cost of sales of $3,698,551 as compared with cost of sales of $3,548,868 during the same period in 2012, an increase of approximately $149,683, or 4.2%.  The percentage of the costs of sales to total revenues decreased slightly to 46.2% from 45.5% as compared to the same quarter of the previous year, primarily due to material market price change.
 
Gross Profit
 
As a result of the changes in sales and costs, gross profit during the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $4,438,409, an increase of $305,612 or 7.4% as compared to the same period in the previous year.

Research and Development Expenses
 
Research and development expenses were $60,265 during the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared with $326,135 during the three months ended September 30, 2012, a decrease of $265,870 or 81.5%.
 
Selling Expenses
 
Our selling expenses decreased by $247,679 or 31.2% to $546,441 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, from $794,120 for the same period of 2012. As a percentage of sales, selling expenses decreased to 6.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from 10.3% for the same period in 2012. The decrease of selling expenses was primarily due to decrease in advertising and promotion expenses related to marketing and promotional activities in our Huoliyuan Capsule markets.
 
General and Administrative Expenses
 
Our general and administrative expenses were $551,480 during the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared with $710,515 during the three months ended September 30, 2012, a decrease of $159,035 or approximately 22.4%. During the three months ended September 30, 2012, the General and Administration Expenses include an additional salary payment of $220,226 for employees’ holiday bonuses.  There was no additional salary payment for the three months ended September 30, 2013. There was amortized long-term land lease of $81,066 for the three months ended September 30, 2013.
 
Interest Income (Expense), Net
 
Interest expense was nil for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as we did not borrow money from bank or other parties. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, the interest income was $30,761.
 
Unrealized Gain on Derivative
 
Unrealized gain on derivative was $4,425,514 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, which was resulted from the fair value adjustment of our derivative liability due to the decrease of CYIG stock price.
 
On October 29, 2012, because the conditions set in the Purchase Agreement were not fulfilled, the Company and LY Research entered into the Termination Agreement to formally terminate the Purchase Agreement, and return the Patent and the shares to LY Research and the Company, respectively.  As a result, the derivative obligation and the unrealized gain were reversed by the carrying amount of $1,106,378 and $4,425,514, respectively.  Consequentially, there was no unrealized gain on derivative for the three months ended September 30, 2013. 
 
Income Tax
 
Income tax was $840,322 during the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $583,197 for the same period of 2012, an increase of $257,125 or approximately 44.1%. The increase was primarily due to the increased taxable income (excluding unrealized gain on derivative) during the three months ended September 30, 2013.
 
Net Income
 
As a result of the above factors, we had a net income of $2,439,900 during the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared with a net income of $6,175,105 during the three months ended September 30, 2012.  The decrease was mostly contributed to the Unrealized Gain on Derivative of $4,425,514 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, which was reversed on October 29, 2012. Consequentially, there was no unrealized gain for the three months ended September 30, 2013.

Other Comprehensive Income
 
As a result of the currency translation adjustment, we had other comprehensive income of $307,174 during the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared with other comprehensive loss of $128,779 during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 due to exchange rate fluctuations from Chinese RMB, the functional currency used in our Chinese subsidiary, to US dollar, our reporting currency.

The gross profit reduced to $8,682,685 for the six months ended September 30, 2013, which was slightly increased from the same period in 2012. Our gross margin decreased to 53.1% during the six months ended September 30, 2013 from 52.3% during the six months ended September 30, 2012.

Our general and administrative expenses were $1,131,388 during the six months ended September 30, 2013, compared with $1,202,898 during the six months ended September 30, 2012, a decrease of $71,510 or approximately 5.1%. During the six months ended September 30, 2012, the General and Administration Expenses include an additional salary payment of $220,226 for employees’ holiday bonuses.  There was no additional salary payment for the six months ended September 30, 2013.  However, the General and Administration Expenses include the land lease payment of $81,066 for the six months ended September 30, 2013.
 
Research and Development Expenses
 
Research and development expenses were $647,524 during the six months ended September 30, 2013 compared with $548,700 during the six months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of $98,824, or 18.0%, reflecting the increased expenses related to investments in future new technologies and products that can be utilized to refine and extract the beneficial components from plants, primarily gingko.
 
Interest Income
 
Interest income was $28,732 for the six months ended September 30, 2013, decreased by $30,060 or 51.1%, compared to  $58,792 for the six months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease reflected the decreased cash balance. 
 
Unrealized Gain on Derivative
 
Unrealized gain on derivative was $4,425,514 for the six months ended September 30, 2012, which was resulted from the fair value adjustment of our derivative liability due to the decrease of CYIG stock price. 
 
On October 29, 2012, because the conditions set in the Purchase Agreement were not fulfilled, the Company and LY Research entered into the Termination Agreement to formally terminate the Purchase Agreement, and return the Patent and the shares to LY Research and the Company, respectively.  As a result, the derivative obligation and the unrealized gain were reversed by the carrying amount of $1,106,378 and $4,425,514, respectively.  Consequentially, there was no unrealized gain on derivative for the three months ended September 30, 2013.
 
Income Tax
 
Income tax was $1,480,861 during the six months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $1,326,424 for the same period of 2012, an increase of $154,437, or approximately 11.6%. The increase was primarily due to the increased taxable income (excluding unrealized gain on derivative) during the six months ended September 30, 2013.
 
Net Income
 
As a result of the factors described above, we generated net income of $4,361,516 during the six months ended September 30, 2013, as compared with net income of $8,422,815 during the six months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease was mostly contributed to the Unrealized Gain on Derivative of $4,425,514 for the six months ended September 30, 2012, which was reversed on October 29, 2012. Consequentially, there was no unrealized gain for the six months ended September 30, 2013. 
 
Other Comprehensive Income
 
As a result of a currency translation adjustment, other comprehensive income was $916,257 during the six months ended September 30, 2013, compared with other comprehensive loss of $169,657 during the six months ended September 30, 2012; which is mainly attributable to the exchange rate fluctuations from Chinese RMB, the functional currency used in our Chinese subsidiary, to US dollar, our reporting currency.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our principal sources of liquidity were primarily generated from our operations.  As of September 30, 2013, we had $16,498,368 in working capital, a decrease of $13,625,055 or 45% as compared to  $30,123,423 in working capital at March 31, 2013.  We made an additional investment and made an advanced land lease payment to develop our own acer truncatum bunge planting base during the six months ended September 30, 2013 to enhance our product structure.
 
Based on our current operating plan, we believe that existing cash and cash equivalents balances, and the funds to be generated by operations will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital requirements for our current operations for at least the next 12 months. Our operations produced negative cash flow of $13,695,046 during the six months ended September 30, 2013 due to the additional investment. We did not have accounts receivable outstanding as of September 30, 2013. We expect our marketing activities to continue to help generate positive cash flow.  The investment in the acer truncatum bunge planting base and the advanced land lease payment since July 2013 has put some pressure on our cash flow.  We may be required to seek additional capital and reduce certain spending as needed on an on-going basis. There can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available on acceptable terms.

Operating Activities
 
For the six months ended September 30, 2013, net cash provided by operating activities was $3,833,092, compared to $2,366,236 for the same period in 2012. The primary reason for the change was mainly the result of the increased net income, off-set by the non-cash items. The unrealized gain on derivative was increased by $4,425,514 during the six months ended September 30, 2012. 
 
Investing Activities
 
Net cash used in investing activities was $18,029,833 for the six months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to $2,695 for the six months ended September 30, 2012 as we made investment to construct our own acer truncatum bunge planting base and planted 2,668,000 trees during the six months ended September 30, 2013. 
 
Financing Activities
 
There were no financing activities for the six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on their financial condition or results of operations.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
This section should be read together with the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included as Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2013 and 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2013 filed with the SEC.
 
We prepare our financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect our reporting of, among other things, assets and liabilities, contingent liabilities and revenues and expenses. We continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information, our own historical experiences and other factors that we believe to be relevant under the circumstances. Since our financial reporting process inherently relies on the use of estimates and assumptions, our actual results could differ from our expectations. This is especially true with some accounting policies that require higher degrees of judgment than others in their application. We consider the policies discussed below to be critical to an understanding of our audited and unaudited consolidated financial statements because they involve the greatest reliance on our management’s judgment.
 
 
21

 
Principles of consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements for the six months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 include the accounts of China YCT International Group, Inc and Shandong Spring Pharmaceutical Company. Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).  All significant inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
 
Revenue recognition
 
Our revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104, included in the Codification as ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are recorded as customer deposits.
 
Inventories
 
Inventory is primarily composed of raw materials and packing materials for manufacturing, work in process, and finished goods. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market with cost determined on a weighted average basis. Management compares the cost of inventory with the market value and an allowance is made to write down the inventory to market value, if lower than cost.
 
Stock Based Compensation
 
The Company measures compensation expense for its non-employee stock-based compensation under FASB ASC 718.  The fair value of the stock issued is used to measure the transaction, as this is more reliable than the fair value of the services received. Fair value is measured as the value of the Company’s common stock on the date that the commitment for performance by the counterparty has been reached or the counterparty’s performance is complete. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In July 2012, FASB issued an amendment to the FASB Codification Topic 350 – Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. The objective of the amendments in this Update is to reduce the cost and complexity of performing an impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets by simplifying how an entity tests those assets for impairment and to improve consistency in impairment testing guidance among long-lived asset categories. The amendments permit an entity first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test in accordance with Subtopic 350-30, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – General Intangibles Other than Goodwill. The more likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50 percent. The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. The Company decided to adopt the amendment for the year starting with April 1, 2013. The Company does not expect the adoption of this pronouncement to have a significant impact on its financial condition or results of operations.
 
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 
A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.
 
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
 
The term “disclosure controls and procedures” (defined in SEC Rule 13a-15(e)) refers to the 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 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within required time periods. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, such controls and procedures were effective.
 
Changes in internal controls.
 
The term “internal control over financial reporting” (defined in SEC Rule 13a-15(f)) refers to the process of a company that is designed 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 principles. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2013, and they have concluded that there was no change to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
