CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements”. Forward-looking statements discuss matters that are not historical facts.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, are based on various underlying assumptions and current expectations about the future and are not guarantees. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievement to be materially different from the results of operations or plans expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

 

We cannot predict all of the risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, such information should not be regarded as representations that the results or conditions described in such statements or that our objectives and plans will be achieved and we do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any of these forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements represent our intentions, plans, expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Many of those factors are outside of our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events described in the forward-looking statements might not occur or might occur to a different extent or at a different time than we have described. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning other matters addressed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, a change in events, conditions, circumstances or assumptions underlying such statements, or otherwise.

In order to further reinforce Jiasheng Consulting’s rights to control and operate Zhongxian Information, the stockholders of Zhongxian Information have granted Jiasheng Consulting the exclusive right and option to acquire all of their equity interests in Zhongxian Information through an Exclusive Option Agreement.

 

The exchange agreement transaction constituted a reverse takeover transaction. Accordingly, reverse takeover accounting was adopted for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. As a result, the consolidated financial statements are issued under the name of China Modern Agricultural Information, Inc. (the legal acquirer), but are a continuation of the consolidated financial statements of Value Development (the accounting acquirer) and the VIE its subsidiaries. Before and after the Share Exchange, Value Development, Value Development Group Limited (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Value Development), Jiasheng Consulting, and Zhongxian Information and their 99% owned subsidiary, Heilongjiang Xinhua Cattle Industry Co., Ltd. (“Xinhua Cattle”) were under common control. Therefore, the reorganization was effectively a legal recapitalization accounted for as transactions between entities under common control at the carry over basis, in a manner similar to pooling-of-interests accounting.

 

Zhongxian Information and Xinhua Cattle are engaged in the acquisition, breeding and rearing of dairy cows, and production and sale of fresh milk to manufacturing and distribution companies. Zhongxian Information was established in China in January 2005 with registered capital of 10 million Renminbi (“RMB”). In February 2006, it acquired 99% of the registered capital of Xinhua Cattle, which was established in China in December 2005 with registered capital of three million RMB. Xinhua Cattle had no significant activities and its cost approximated the fair value at the date of acquisition.

 

On November 23, 2011, Zhongxian Information acquired 100% of the equity interest of Shangzhi Yulong Co., Ltd. (“Yulong”) from Yulong’s original stockholders for consideration of 9,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and cash consideration of $4,396,000.

 

Yulong was a privately held company in China engaged in the acquisition, breeding and rearing of dairy cows, and production and sale of fresh milk to manufacturing and distribution companies.

Basis of Accounting and Presentation (continued)

 

Variable Interest Entity

 

Pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”), the Company is required to include in its consolidated financial statements the financial statements of its VIE’s. ASC 810 requires a VIE to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss for the VIE or is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE’s residual returns. VIEs are those entities in which a company, through contractual arrangements, bears the risk of, and enjoys the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entity, and therefore the company is the primary beneficiary of the entity.

 

Zhongxian Information and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Chinese VIE”) have no assets that are collateral for or restricted solely to settle their obligations. The creditors of the Chinese VIE and its subsidiaries do not have recourse to the Company’s general credit. Because Value Development, Value Development Group Limited and Jiasheng Consulting are established for the sole purpose of holding ownership interest and do not have any operations, the financial statement amounts and balances are principally those of the Chinese VIE and its subsidiaries.

 

Under ASC 810, an enterprise has a controlling financial interest in a VIE, and must consolidate that VIE, if the enterprise has both of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance; and (b) the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company’s determination of whether it has this power is not affected by the existence of kick-out rights or participating rights, unless a single enterprise, including its related parties and de facto agents, has the unilateral ability to exercise those rights. The Chinese VIE’s actual stockholders do not hold any kick-out rights that will affect the consolidation determination.

 

On September 16, 2015 the VIE structure was terminated upon the Jiasheng Consulting exercised its option to purchase all of the registered equity of Zhongxian Information. Jiasheng Consulting became the sole owner of Zhongxian Information.

Foreign Currency Translations

 

All Company assets are located in People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). The functional currency for the majority of the Company’s operations is the Renminbi (“RMB”). The Company uses the United States dollar (“US Dollar” or “US$” or “$”) for financial reporting purposes. The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been translated into US dollars in accordance with FASB ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters.” All asset and liability accounts have been translated using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Equity accounts have been translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. Statements of income and other comprehensive income amounts have been translated using the average exchange rate for the periods presented. Adjustments resulting from the translation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements are recorded as other comprehensive income (“OCI”).

 

The exchange rates used to translate amounts in RMB and Australian dollars (the “A$”) into US dollars for preparing the consolidated financial statements are as follows:

Foreign Currency Translations (continued)

 

Foreign currency translation adjustments of $(2,545,664) and $52,470, respectively, $(7,585,892) and $57,399, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, have been reported as other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income of the Company consists entirely of foreign currency translation adjustments. Pursuant to ASC 740-30-25-17, “Exceptions to Comprehensive Recognition of Deferred Income Taxes,” the Company does not recognize deferred U.S. taxes related to the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries and, accordingly, recognizes no income tax expense or benefit from foreign currency translation adjustments.

 

Although government regulations now allow convertibility of the RMB for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain. Hence, such translations should not be construed as representations that the RMB could be converted into US dollars at that rate or any other rate.

 

The value of the RMB against the US dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. Any significant revaluation of the RMB could materially affect the Company’s consolidated financial condition in terms of US dollar reporting.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s primary sources of revenues are derived from (a) sale of fresh milk to Chinese manufacturing and distribution companies of dairy products and (b) commissions from local farmers on their monthly milk sales. The Company’s revenue recognition policies comply with FASB ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition.” Revenues from the sale of goods are recognized when the goods are delivered and the title is transferred, the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, the price is fixed and determinable and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured.

Revenue Recognition (continued)

 

Milk sales revenue is recognized when the title has been passed to the customers, which is the date when the milk is delivered to designated locations and accepted by the customers and the previously discussed requirements are met. Fresh milk is delivered to its customers on a daily basis. The customers’ acceptance occurs upon inspection of the quality and measurement of quantity at the time of delivery. The Company does not provide the customer with the right of return. Sales commission revenue is recognized on a monthly basis based on monthly sales reports received.

 

Vulnerability Due to Operations in PRC

 

The Company’s operations may be adversely affected by significant political, economic and social uncertainties in the PRC. Although the PRC government has been pursuing economic reform policies for more than twenty years, no assurance can be given that the PRC government will continue to pursue such policies or that such policies may not be significantly altered, especially in the event of a change in leadership, social or political disruption or unforeseen circumstances affecting the PRC’s political, economic and social conditions. There is also no guarantee that the PRC government’s pursuit of economic reforms will be consistent or effective.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement” specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based upon whether the inputs to those valuation techniques reflect assumptions other market participants would use based upon market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs). In accordance with ASC 820, the following summarizes the fair value hierarchy:

  

  Level 1 Inputs – Unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities in an active market that the Company has the ability to access.
     
  Level 2 Inputs – Inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly.
     
  Level 3 Inputs – Inputs based on valuation techniques that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurements.

 

ASC 820 requires the use of observable market data, when available, in making fair value measurements. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

 

The Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented at fair value on a recurring basis. Carrying values of non-derivative financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, interest receivable, accrued expenses, and other payables, and stockholder loans, approximated their fair values due to the short maturity of these financial instruments. The carrying value of notes receivable is valued at their net realizable value which approximates the fair value. There were no changes in methods or assumptions during the periods presented.

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. Advertising costs are $10,257 and $0, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all demand and time deposits and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable is stated at cost, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, if required. Receivables outstanding longer than the payment terms are considered past due. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses when necessary resulting from the failure of customers to make required payments. The Company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes allowances where there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances.

 

In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, the customer’s payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. The Company has 30 days credit term for its milk sales, and usually receives the payment in the following month. The Company considers all accounts receivable at December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, to be fully collectible and, therefore, did not provide an allowance for doubtful accounts. For the periods presented, the Company did not write off any accounts receivable as bad debts.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories, comprised principally of livestock feed, are valued at the lower of cost or market value. The value of inventories is determined using the weighted average cost method.

 

The Company estimates an inventory allowance for excessive or unusable inventories. Inventory amounts are reported net of such allowances, if any. There was no allowance for excessive or unusable inventories as of December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015.

Prepaid Expenses

 

Prepaid expenses as of December 31, 2015 and June 30 2015 mainly represent the prepayments of approximately $809,607 and $898,900, respectively for prepaid cow insurances expenses and for heating expenses.

 

Prepaid Land Leases

 

Prepaid land leases represent the prepayment for grassland rental (see Note 7).

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes the price paid to acquire or construct the asset, including capitalized interest during the construction period, and any expenditures that substantially increase the assets value or extends the useful life of an existing asset. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Major repairs and betterments that significantly extend original useful lives or improve productivity are capitalized and depreciated over the periods benefited. Maintenance and repairs are generally expensed as incurred.

 

The estimated useful lives for property, plant and equipment categories are as follows:

 

  Machinery and equipment 3 to 10 years
  Automobiles 4 to 10 years
  Building and building improvements 10 to 20 years
  Leasehold improvements Lesser of the remaining term or useful life

 

Deferred registration fee

 

Deferred registration fee consist of legal fees, consulting fees, and accounting fees incurred through the balance sheet date that relate to Proposed Offering on the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”) and that will be charged to stockholders’ equity upon completion of the Proposed Offering or charged to expense if the Proposed Offering is not completed.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

The Company utilizes FASB ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment” (“ASC 360”), which addresses the financial accounting and reporting for the recognition and measurement of impairment losses for long-lived assets. In accordance with ASC 360, long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company may recognize an impairment of a long-lived asset in the event the net book value of such asset exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows attributable to the asset. No impairment of long-lived assets was recognized for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

 

Biological Assets

 

Biological assets consist of dairy cows for milking purposes and breeding.

 

Immature Biological Assets

 

Immature biological assets are recorded at cost, including acquisition costs, transportation costs, insurance expenses, and feeding costs, incurred in raising the cows. Once the cow is able to produce milk, the cost of the immature biological asset is transferred to mature biological assets using the weighted average cost method.

 

Mature Biological Assets

 

Mature biological assets are recorded at their original purchase price or the weighted average immature biological asset transfer cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of eight years using the straight-line method. The estimated residual value is 10%. Feeding and management costs incurred on mature biological assets are included as cost of goods sold. When biological assets, including male cows, are retired or otherwise disposed of in the normal course of business, the cost and accumulated depreciation will be removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss will be included in the results of operations for the respective period. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, a loss of $69,855 and $1,099,748, respectively, $105,015 and $1,099,748, respectively, on the sale of the adult cows is included in non-operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income.

Biological Assets (continued)

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of its biological assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events and circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected from their use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss will be recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current health status and production capacity. There were no impairment losses recorded during the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), which requires the recognition of deferred income taxes for differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes. The differences relate principally to the undistributed earnings of the Company’s subsidiary under PRC law. Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax consequences for those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes are also recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. At December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, undistributed earnings allocated to Zhongxian Information were approximately $177,607,000 and $160,600,000, respectively.

Income Taxes (Continued)

 

ASC 740 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under ASC 740, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position would be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, and accounting for

interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions. As of December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, the Company does not have a liability for any uncertain tax positions.

 

The income tax laws of various jurisdictions in which the Company and its subsidiaries operate are summarized as follows:

 

United States

 

The Company is subject to United States tax at graduated rates from 15% to 35%. No provision for income tax in the United States has been made as the Company had no U.S. taxable income for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

 

BVI

 

Value Development and Hope Diary are incorporated in the BVI and is governed by the income tax laws of the BVI. According to current BVI income tax law, the applicable income tax rate for the Company is 0%.

 

Hong Kong

 

Value Development Group Limited and China Dairy are incorporated in Hong Kong. Pursuant to the income tax laws of Hong Kong, the Company is not subject to tax on non-Hong Kong source income.

Income Taxes (Continued)

 

PRC

 

Xinhua Cattle and Yulong are entitled to a tax exemption for the full Enterprise Income Tax in China due to a government tax preferential policy for the dairy farming industry. In January 2015, Zhongxian obtained an income tax exemption notice from tax authority to exempt the income tax on its investment income from its subsidiaries Xinhua Cattle and Yulong.

 

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company computes net income (loss) per common share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share” (“ASC 260”). Under the provisions of ASC 260, basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the amount available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income per common share is computed by dividing the amount available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the effect of any dilutive shares outstanding during the period. Accordingly, the number of weighted average shares outstanding as well as the amount of net income per share are presented for basic and diluted per share calculations for all periods reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income. There were no dilutive shares outstanding during the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

 

Statutory Reserve Fund

 

Pursuant to corporate law of the PRC, Jiasheng Consulting and the Company’s Chinese VIE and its subsidiaries are required to transfer 10% of their net income, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, to a statutory reserve fund until such reserve balance reaches 50% of its registered capital. The statutory reserve fund is non-distributable other than during liquidation and can be used to fund previous years’ losses, if any, and may be utilized for business expansion or used to increase registered capital, provided that the remaining reserve balance after such use is not less than 25% of the registered capital. As of December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, the required statutory reserve funds have been fully funded.

In September 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-16: Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments (“ASU 2015-16”), which eliminates the requirement to restate prior period financial statements for measurement period adjustments. The new guidance requires that the cumulative impact of a measurement period adjustment (including the impact on prior periods) be recognized in the reporting period in which the adjustment is identified. ASU 2015-16 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. This accounting standard update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-09, “Financial Services-Insurance (Topic 944): Disclosures about Short-Duration Contracts.” This guidance requires insurance entities to disclose for annual reporting periods incurred and paid claims development information by accident year, after reinsurance, for the number of years for which claims typically remain open. Disclosures should also include quantitative information about claim frequency and a qualitative description of methodologies used for determining claim frequency information. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2015, and is applicable to the Company's fiscal year beginning June 1, 2016. Early and retrospective application is permitted. This accounting standard update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-07, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent) (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” This guidance removes the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per share practical expedient and removes certain related disclosure requirements. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2015, and is applicable to the Company's fiscal year beginning June 1, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. This accounting standard update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-05, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement.” This guidance clarifies the accounting treatment for fees paid in cloud computing arrangements, including the determination of whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2015, and is applicable to the Company's fiscal year beginning June 1, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. This accounting standard update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” This Guidance requires debt issuance costs to be presented in the balance sheet as a reduction of the related debt liability rather than an asset. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2015, and is applicable to the Company's fiscal year beginning June 1, 2016. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements not previously issued. This accounting standard update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") ASU 2015-01 – Income Statement – Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20). This ASU addressed the simplification of income statement presentation by eliminating the concept of extraordinary items. The objective of the Simplification Initiative is to identify, evaluate, and improve areas of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for which cost and complexity can be reduced while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information provided to the users of financial statements. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. A reporting entity may apply the amendments prospectively. A reporting entity also may apply the amendments retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. This accounting standard update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

3.Recently Issued Accounting Standards (CONTINUED)

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that requires an entity’s management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and requires additional disclosures if certain criteria are met. This guidance is effective for fiscal periods ending after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. This accounting standard update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period (ASU 2014-12). ASU 2014-12 requires that a performance target that affects vesting and could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. A reporting entity should apply existing guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, as it relates to such awards. ASU 2014-12 is effective for us in our first quarter of fiscal 2017 with early adoption permitted using either of two methods: (i) prospective to all awards granted or modified after the effective date; or (ii) retrospective to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter, with the cumulative effect of applying ASU 2014-12 as an adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements. This accounting standard update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

3.Recently Issued Accounting Standards (CONTINUED)

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition”. The core principle of this updated guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new rule also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The FASB has recently extended the effective date for one year. Companies are permitted to adopt this new rule following either a full or modified retrospective approach. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company has not yet determined the potential impact of this updated authoritative guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company also entered into agreements with these local farmers for a 30% commission of their monthly milk sales generated by the cows sold in exchange for the Company’s assistance in arranging for the sale of the milk.

 

Pursuant to the agreements signed in August 2011, September 2011, November 2014, and December 2014, the sales price will be collected in monthly installments plus interest at 7% on the outstanding balance, over the remaining useful lives of the cows, which range from one to eight years.

The 30% monthly payments are to be applied first to the monthly installment of principal for the cows sold and the balance as commission income for the Company’s assistance in arranging for the sale of the milk. The 30% monthly payments will continue over the entire remaining life of the cows sold. While the 30% rate and the amount applied to monthly installments for the purchase price of the cows remain the same, the amount of sales commission income will vary depending on total monthly milk sales and the progress of repayments towards the purchase price.

The stock compensation of approximately $37,762,400 would be deductible only to the U.S. parent company and accordingly there is no deferred tax benefit to be recognized.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for expected future tax consequences of differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases using enacted tax rates in effects for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

 

The tax laws of China permit the carry forward of net operating losses for a period of five years. Undistributed earnings from Xinhua Cattle and Yulong are not taxable until such earnings are actually distributed to Jiasheng Consulting. A deferred tax liability was provided for the tax to be paid when these earnings are distributed. On September 16, 2015 due to the termination of VIE structure (Note 1), Jiasheng Consulting would not be taxable on the future undistributed earnings from Xinhua Cattle and Yulong under the Enterprise Income Tax Law that Chinese resident enterprise is an exemption of dividend income received from another Chinese resident enterprise.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of the Company for the periods ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. Such discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto and other financial information contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

 

Overview

 

We are a leading producer and distributor of raw fresh milk in China. We have two operating entities with an aggregate fresh milk production capacity of approximately 369 tons per day. We also have 76 exclusive individual partners with an aggregate fresh milk production capacity of approximately 405 tons per day. We have four major customers, one of which is the leading dairy company in China. During the quarter ended December 31, 2015, the Company terminated the contracts with certain customers and entered into contracts with four new customers.

 

We were incorporated on December 22, 2008 under the laws of the State of Nevada.    We were formerly known as Trade Link. On April 4, 2011, the Board of Directors of Trade Link filed an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation with the State of Nevada and changed our name from Trade Link to China Modern Agricultural Information, Inc.  

 

On January 28, 2011, we entered into a share exchange agreement by and among (i) Value Development Holding Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (“Value Development”), (ii) Value Development’s shareholders, (iii) us, and (iv) our former principal stockholders.    Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Value Development’s shareholders transferred to us all of the shares of Value Development in exchange for the issuance of 35,998,000 shares of our common stock. The shares issued to Value Development’s shareholders in the Securities Exchange constituted approximately 87.80% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of and immediately after the consummation of the Securities Exchange. As a result of the Securities Exchange, Value Development became our wholly owned subsidiary and Value Development’s former principal shareholders became our principal shareholders. 

 

On January 28, 2011, Value Development completed the acquisition of Jiasheng Consulting Managerial Co., Ltd., a PRC company (“Jiasheng Consulting”).    Jiasheng Consulting entered into a series of contractual agreements with Heilongjiang Zhongxian Information Co., Ltd., a PRC company (“Zhongxian Information”), Mr. Zhengxin Liu, our Chief Human Resource Officer and holder of 62% the of equity interest in Zhongxian Information, and Mr. Youliang Wang, our Chief Executive Officer and holder of 38% of the equity interest of Zhongxian Information. Pursuant to the contractual arrangements, Jiasheng Consulting controls all managerial power of Zhongxian Information.    The contractual arrangements include a shareholder voting rights proxy agreement, exclusive consulting and services agreement, exclusive call option agreement and equity pledge agreement, pursuant to which, Jiasheng Consulting shall provide exclusive and complete business support and technical and consulting service to Zhongxian Information in exchange for an annual fee in the amount of Zhongxian Information’s yearly net profits after tax, and Zhongxian Information’s stockholders pledged their rights, title and equity interest in Zhongxian Information as security for the collection of such consulting and service fees provided in the equity pledge agreement.

 

Zhongxian Information was incorporated in China in January 2005 with registered capital of RMB 10,000,000 or $1,206,800 US Dollars.  In February 2006, it acquired 99% of the registered capital of Heilongjiang Xinhua Cattle Industry Co., Ltd., a PRC company (“Xinhua Cattle”), which was incorporated in China in December 2005 with registered capital of RMB 3,000,000 or $371,580 US Dollars. Xinhua Cattle is located in Qiqihar, Heilongjiang Province, in northeast China and is a livestock company that engages in cow breading and fresh milk production and distribution.

 

On November 23, 2011, Zhongxian Information acquired 100% of the equity interest of Shangzhi Yulong Cattle Co., Ltd., a PRC company (“Yulong Cattle”), in exchange for (i) issuance of 9,000,000 shares of our common stock, and (ii) a cash payment of $4,396,000, to Yulong Cattle’s former shareholders. Yulong Cattle was incorporated on December 4, 2007 under the laws of the PRC. Yulong Cattle, located in Harbin, Heilongjiang, in northeast China, is a livestock company that engages in cow breeding and fresh milk distribution, and primarily generates its revenue from the sale of fresh milk.

 

On July 16, 2015, we transferred 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Value Development to China Dairy Corporation Ltd., a Hong Kong company (“China Dairy”), which is 60% owned indirectly by the Company through the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Hope Diary Holdings Ltd., a British Virgin Islands company (“Hope Diary”). These transactions involves no consideration received or paid as Value Development and China Dairy are under common control by us and this transaction is a restriction to our interests in Value Development.

 

China Dairy was newly incorporated in January 2015 and did not have any significant assets or liabilities, or business operations, which is 100% owned by Company’s PRC corporate advisor. Further, the sole shareholder transferred the 10,000 shares of China Dairy to Value Development 60% and various shareholder and consultants of the Company 40% at HK$1.00 per share.

 

47

 

 

The 40% of the 10,000 shares of China Dairy were transferred from the sole shareholder of China Diary to the following entities at HK$1.00 per share, which has direct or indirect relationship with the shareholder and consultants of the Company: 3% to Beijing Ruihua Future, 4% to Donghe Group, 3% to Integral Capital, 20% to Dingxi Shanghai Fund and 10% to Zhiyuan International. Immediately after the transfer, 65,000 bonus shares were issued at no consideration for every existing share.

 

Value Development is the sole shareholder of Value Development Group Limited, which is the sole shareholder of Harbin Jiasheng Consulting Managerial Co. Ltd. (“Jiasheng Consulting”), which is our subsidiary in China, with respect to which the operating company, Zhongxian Information, is a variable interest entity. The effect of this transaction was to reduce the interest of ours in its operating company by 40%. We use the China Diary’s offering price for the Proposed Offering to approximate the fair value of the 40% stock granted to the shareholder and consultants.

 

On September 16, 2015 our 60%-owned subsidiary, Jiasheng Consulting, exercised its option to purchase all of the registered equity of our operating subsidiary, Zhongxian Information from its stockholders Zhenxin Liu and Youliang Wang, who are also the members of our Board of Directors, for RMB10,000 (approximately $1,634). Prior to the acquisition, Jiasheng Consulting controlled Zhongxian Information through a series of contractual agreements, which made Zhongxian Information a variable interest entity, the effect of which was to cause the balance sheet and operating results of Zhongxian Information to be consolidated with those of Jiasheng Consulting in our financial statements. As a result of the acquisition by Jiasheng Consulting of the registered ownership of Zhongxian Information, the balance sheet and operating results of Zhongxian Information hereafter continues to be consolidated with those of Jiasheng Consulting as its 100% owned subsidiary.

 

Our current structure is set forth below:

Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

 

Our operating results are primarily affected by the following present factors:

 

  Dairy Industry Growth. We believe the market for dairy products in China for the long term will grow rapidly, driven by China’s economic growth, improved living quality and increased penetration of infant formula. Accordingly, we believe that the demand of fresh milk will increase rapidly.

 

  Production Capacity. Our revenue largely depends on our production capacity. The production capacity in this industry is determined by the variety, aging and number of adult cows. Accordingly, we acquired Yulong Cattle in November 2011 which increased our number of cows by 3,800 and improved our production capacity by approximately 90 tons per day when acquired.

 

  Raw Material Supplies and Prices. The per unit cost of fresh milk is affected by price volatility of our raw materials and feeding expenses in the China markets.  In response to the increased cost, we leased 16,666,750 square meters of grassland in October 2011, 427,572 square meters grassland in February 2013, and 521,336 square meters of grassland in May 2015. We believe that the hay production of this grassland can satisfy our raw material demand and lower our feeding cost.

 

  Change of operation method. We disposed a large number of adult cows to local farmers, introduced distribution channel to them and receive up to 30% of the farmers’ milk sales as a commission. It makes our performance is stably increased and we have enough production resources to feed more cows by ourselves.

 

Sale of Cows

 

In September 2011, August 2011, and June 2011, Xinhua Cattle sold 3,787, 5,635, and 2,000 of its cows to local farmers, respectively. In November and December 2014, Yulong sold 3,714 and 2,995 cows to local farmers respectively. 3,500 of the cows sold in 2014 were purchased from outside unrelated parties for $4,550,000. The remaining cows sold were raised by Yulong.

 

According to the agreements signed with the local farmers in June 2011, the sales price will be collected over five years, with a minimum payment of 20% of the sales price to be paid each year. The related receivable is recorded at its present value at a discount rate of 12%, which is commensurate with interest rates for notes with similar risk. The Company also entered into agreements with these local farmers for a 30% commission of their monthly milk sales generated by the cows sold in exchange for the Company’s assistance in arranging for the sale of the milk.

 

Pursuant to the agreements signed in August 2011, September 2011, November 2014, and December 2014, the sales price will be collected in monthly installments plus interest at 7% on the outstanding balance, over the remaining useful lives of the cows, which range from one to eight years. Local farmers are required to pay 30% of monthly milk sales generated from the cows purchased by the farmers. The 30% monthly payments are to be applied first to the monthly installment of principal for the cows sold and the balance as commission income for the Company’s assistance in arranging for the sale of the milk. The 30% monthly payments will continue over the entire remaining life of the cows sold. While the 30% rate and the amount applied to monthly installments for the purchase price of the cows remain the same, the amount of sales commission income will vary depending on total monthly milk sales and the progress of repayments towards the purchase price.

 

In August 2015, Xinhua Cattle sold 200 cows to an outside party at a total price of RMB 160,000(US $25,488) including insurance of RMB 100,000 (US $ 15,930). The cow had a net book value approximately $44,000 as of the disposal date, which include cost basis approximately $573,000 and accumulated depreciation approximately $529,000.

 

In November 2015, Yulong Cattle Sold 347 cows to an outside party at a total price of RMB 1,144,800 (US $176,299) including insurance of RMB 104,100 (US $ 16,031). The cows had a net book value approximately $235,000 as of the disposal date, which include cost basis approximately $574,000 and accumulated depreciation approximately $339,000.

 

Increase in payment to local farmers

 

Due to the significant increase in forage price, our payment to local farmers was increased as well during last nine months. Before March 2015, the payment which included feeding expense and forage cost was $52, $66, $76 and $117, respectively, which paid for calve, pre-adult cow, young cow and adult cow per month. Since April 2015, such expenses were increased to $60, $77, $88 and $139, respectively, paid for each type of cows. Since September 2015, such expenses were increased to $69, $88, $103 and $161, respectively. In the end of September 2015, we terminated the agreements with the original 200 local farmers and signed with new 179 local farmers near around Harbin city. However, it didn’t stop the increase in forage price. Since November 2015, the feeding expenses and forage costs were increased to $79, $98, $118 and $268 for each calve, pre-adult cow, young cow and adult cow, respectively.

The following table sets forth certain information regarding our results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. 

 

   For the Three Months Ended December 31, 
           Change

Revenues

 

The revenue was primarily generated from sales of fresh milk and commissions on fresh milk sales by famers to whom we sold cows. We had total revenues of $24,025,394 for the three months ended December 31, 2015, an increase of $7,903,524 or 49%, compared to $16,121,870 for the three months ended December 31, 2014. There are three main reasons caused such increase: 1). approximately $2,100,000 commission revenue generated from the total 6,709 milk cows disposed by Yulong in November and December 2014; 2). Total average milk cows were increased from 9,658 to 15,454; 3). The milk sales price was increased from $0.55 per kg to $0.60 per kg for approximate 97% of total milk sales. 

 

The following table shows a breakdown of revenue from natural milk sales and sales commission, respectively: 

 

   For the Three Months Ended December 31, 
           Change 
   2015   2014   Amount   % 
Sales of natural milk  $19,006,425   $11,983,115   $7,023,310    59%
Sales commissions   5,018,969    4,138,755    880,214    21%
Total revenue  $24,025,394   $16,121,870   $7,903,524    49%

 

For the three months ended December 31, 2015, our revenue generated from natural milk sales was $19,006,425 which represented an increase of $7,023,310 or 59% compared to $11,983,115 for the three months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in the natural milk sales was primarily due to the increased number of milk cows compared to the same period of 2014.

 

The following table sets forth information regarding the number of milk cows and the revenue per cow:

 

   For the Three Months Ended December 31, 
           Change 
   2015   2014   Amount   % 
Sales of natural milk  $19,006,425   $11,983,115   $7,023,310    59%
Average number of milk cows   15,454    9,658    5,796    60%
Revenue from per milk cow  $1,230   $1,241   $(11)   (1%)

 

The revenue per milk cow decreased to $1,230 for the three months ended December 31, 2015 from $1,241 for the three months ended December 31, 2014, a decrease of $11 or 1%. We terminated the feeding agreements with the original 200 local farmers in Qiqihaer on September 25, 2015 and signed with 179 new farmers near to Harbin on September 29, 2015. The adult cows were transferred in the month end and it slightly affected the daily production because of the travelling and new living conditions. That’s the reason caused the decrease in revenue per milk cow although the milk sale price was increased to $0.60 per kg for 97% of total milk sales. In addition, the cold weather caused the decrease in production as well.

 

50

 

 

The sales commissions from local farmers increased by $880,214 or 21% to $5,018,969 for the three months ended December 31, 2015 from $4,138,755 for the three months ended December 31, 2014. The average quantity of milk cows we now earn commission revenue increased by 30% or 3,474, to 14,896 for the three months ended December 31, 2015 from 11,422 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 due to an addition from the sale of 3,714 and 2,995 milk cows by Yulong in November and December 2014, respectively, and a deduction of 970 cows which had been fully depreciated from 4 farmers. The farmers started to pay the commission to Yulong since April 2015. In addition, the daily production of the cows sold by Yulong is also higher than the cows sold by Xinhua due to their younger age. 

 

Gross profit

 

Our cost of goods sold consists of feeding food, feeding expenses and other direct production overhead which includes labor costs, depreciation, lease, water & electricity, etc. Because we started to use the two new farms in Shuangcheng district and Xiangfang District in Harbin, more direct production overhead were allocated to our costs of goods sold. In addition, the direct feeding expenses and food costs paid to local farmers were increased from $117 per cow since March 2015 to $268 per cow in November 2015. In December 2015, Xinhua entered into agreements with 179 local farmers to pay them additional feeding cost of RMB 600 (US$94) for each young cow and adult cow, which were transferred to the farmers for raise at the beginning of October 2015, for improving the feeding environment. The company paid 50% of the total amount RMB 6,795,000 (US$1,072,000) in December 2015 and the remaining 50% was paid in January 2016. 82% of the additional cost for mature cows was included as cost of goods sold. As a result, we have seen a decrease in our margins compared with the same period in 2014. 

 

   For the Three Months Ended December 31, 
           Change 
   2015   2014   Amount   % 
Cost of goods sold  $14,381,212   $4,744,024   $9,637,188    203%
Average number of milk cows   15,454    9,658    5,796    60%
Cost per milk cow  $931   $491   $439    89%

 

The cost per milk cow increased to $931 for the three months ended December 31, 2015 which represented an increase of $439 or 89% compared to $491 for the three months ended December 31, 2014. We described the reason for the increase as above.

 

Gross profit margin

 

Our gross profit margin was 40.1% for the three months ended December 31, 2015 which decreased by 43.1% from the three months ended December 31, 2014. The main reason for such a decrease was mainly due to the increase in feeding and food cost and directly production overhead.

  

Operating expenses

  

Our operating expenses increased to $1,237,590 for the three months ended December 31, 2015 from $361,331 for the three months ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $876,259 or 243%. Our operating expenses primarily consist of human resource costs, depreciation, professional fees associated with filings required by the securities laws of the United States, consulting fees for a Chinese financial advisory company and business taxes, etc. We incurred $283,760 and $ 205,915 in business taxes for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. We classified these business taxes as selling expenses. In addition, because our two new farms in Harbin were started to be used for the six months ended December 31, 2015, the expenses, such as human costs, depreciation, lease and water & electricity, incurred for our sales and admin departments for these two farms were recorded as our operating expenses. That’s another reason caused the increase in our operating expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2015 by comparing with the same period in 2014.

 

Operating income (loss)

 

As a result of the foregoing, we had operating income of $8,406,592 for the three months ended December 31, 2015, representing a decrease of $2,609,923, as compared to operating income of $11,016,515 for the three months ended December 31, 2014.

Non-operating income (expenses) 

 

For the three months ended December 31, 2015, non-operating income consists primarily of interest income of $147,101 earned on the outstanding notes receivable from the farmers and other non operating income of $43,991 which mainly consists of bank interest earned. Non-operating expenses consist of the loss on the disposal of mature biological assets of $69,855. For the three months ended December 31, 2014, non-operating income consists primarily of interest income of $154,208 earned on the outstanding notes receivable from the farmers and other non operating income of $61,557 which mainly consists of bank interest earned. Non-operating expenses consist of the loss on the disposal of mature biological assets of $1,099,748.

 

Net Income

 

Xinhua Cattle and Yulong Cattle are entitled to a tax exemption for the full Enterprise Income Tax in China due to a government tax preference policy for the dairy farming industry. Zhongxian Information is subject to an Enterprise Income Tax of 25% and files its own tax returns before January 16, 2015. On January 16, 2015, Zhongxian Information received a tax exemption notice from Harbin National Tax Bureau on its investment income from its subsidiaries. Jiasheng Consulting (the “WFOE”) is subject to an Enterprise Income Tax at 25% and files its own tax return before September 16, 2015. On September 16, 2015, Jiasheng Consulting purchased all of the registered equity of Zhongxian Information and the VIE structure was terminated. Under China tax law, Jiasheng Consulting is exempt from income tax on its investment income since September 16, 2015. The provision for income taxes was $0 and $2,481,504 for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, primarily representing the enterprise income tax on the income of Zhongxian Information. Net income (loss) before noncontrolling interests was $8,527,829 and $7,651,028 for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which represented an increase in $876,801 or 11%. Originally we own 99% of Xinhua Cattle’s shares and our non controlling interest is only 1% of Xinhua’s net income. On July 16, 2015, as we transferred 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Value Development to China Dairy, which is 60% owned indirectly by us through our wholly owned subsidiary, Hope Diary. The effect of this transaction was to reduce the interest in our operating company by 40%. As a result, net income attributed to the noncontrolling shareholders was increased from 1% to 40%. $3,460,714 and $88,458 was attributed to noncontrolling interest for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Our net income (loss) attributable to the common stockholders of the Company was $5,067,115 representing $0.10 per share and $7,562,570 representing $0.14 per share for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Revenues

 

The revenue was primarily generated from sales of fresh milk and commissions on fresh milk sales by famers to whom we sold cows. We had total revenues of $45,203,705 for the six months ended December 31, 2015, an increase of $12,313,737 or 37%, compared to $32,889,968 for the six months ended December 31, 2014. There are three main reasons caused such increase: 1). approximately $2,100,000 commission revenue generated from the total 6,709 milk cows disposed by Yulong in November and December 2014; 2). Total average milk cows were increased from 10,375 to 14,434; 3). The milk sales price was increased from $0.55 per kg to $0.60 per kg for approximate 97% of total milk sales in since November 2015.

The following table shows a breakdown of revenue from natural milk sales and sales commission, respectively: 

 

   For the Six Months Ended December 31, 
           Change 
   2015   2014   Amount   % 
Sales of natural milk  $34,992,610   $25,708,106   $9,284,504    36%
Sales commissions   10,211,095    7,181,862    3,029,233    42%
Total revenue  $45,203,705   $32,889,968   $12,313,737    37%

 

For the six months ended December 31, 2015, our revenue generated from natural milk sales was $34,992,610 which represented an increase of $9,284,504 or 36% compared to $25,708,106 for the six months ended December 31, 2014. The increase in the natural milk sales was primarily due to the increased number of milk cows compared to the same period of 2014.

 

The following table sets forth information regarding the number of milk cows and the revenue per cow:

 

   For the Six Months Ended December 31, 
           Change 
   2015   2014   Amount   % 
Sales of natural milk  $34,992,610   $25,708,106   $9,284,504    36%
Average number of milk cows   14,434    10,375    4,059    39%
Revenue from per milk cow  $2,424   $2,478   $(54)   (2%)

 

The revenue per milk cow decreased to $2,424 for the six months ended December 31, 2015 from $2,478 for the six months ended December 31, 2014, a decrease of $54 or 2%. We terminated the feeding agreements with the original 200 local farmers in Qiqihaer on September 25, 2015 and signed with 179 new farmers near to Harbin on September 29, 2015. The adult cows were transferred in the end of September 2015 and it slightly affected the daily production because of the travelling and new living conditions. That’s the reason caused the decrease in revenue per milk cow although the milk sale price was increased to $0.60 per kg for 97% of total milk sales since November 2015. In addition, the cold weather caused the decrease in production as well.

 

The sales commissions from local farmers increased by $3,029,233 or 42% to $10,211,095 for the six months ended December 31, 2015 from $7,181,862 for the six months ended December 31, 2014. The average quantity of milk cows we now earn commission revenue increased by 15% or 1,731, to 13,153 for the six months ended December 31, 2015 from 11,422 for the six months ended December 31, 2014 due to an addition from the sale of 3,714 and 2,995 milk cows by Yulong in November and December 2014, respectively, and a deduction of 970 cows which had been fully depreciated from 4 farmers. The farmers started to pay the commission to Yulong since April 2015. In addition, the daily production of the cows sold by Yulong is also higher than the cows sold by Xinhua due to their younger age. 

 

Gross profit

 

Our cost of goods sold consists of feeding food, feeding expenses and other direct production overhead which includes labor costs, depreciation, lease, water & electricity, etc. Because we started to use the two new farms in Shuangcheng district and Xiangfang District in Harbin, more direct production overhead were allocated to our costs of goods sold. In addition, the direct feeding expenses and food costs paid to local farmers were increased from $117 per cow since March 2015 to $268 per cow in November 2015. . In December 2015, Xinhua entered into agreements with 179 local farmers to pay them additional feeding cost of RMB 600 (US$94) for each young cow and adult cow, which were transferred to the farmers for raise at the beginning of October 2015, for improving the feeding environment. The company paid 50% of the total amount RMB 6,795,000 (US$1,072,000) in December 2015 and the remaining 50% was paid in January 2016. 82% of the additional cost for mature cows was included as cost of goods sold. As a result, we have seen a decrease in our margins compared with the same period in 2014. 

 

   For the Six Months Ended December 31, 
           Change 
   2015   2014   Amount   % 
Cost of goods sold  $23,197,122   $10,584,200   $12,612,922    119%
Average number of milk cows   14,434    10,375    4,059    39%
Cost per milk cow  $1,607   $1,020   $587    58%

 

The cost per milk cow increased to $1,607 for the six months ended December 31, 2015 which represented an increase of $587 or 58% compared to $1,020 for the six months ended December 31, 2014. We described the reason for the increase as above.

 

53

 

 

Gross profit margin

 

Our gross profit margin was 48.7% for the six months ended December 31, 2015 which decreased by 19.1% from the six months ended December 31, 2014. The main reason for such a decrease was mainly due to the increase in feeding and food cost and directly production overhead.

  

Operating expenses

  

Our operating expenses sharply increased to $39,919,394 for the six months ended December 31, 2015 from $674,453 for the six months ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $39,244,941 or 5,819%. Our operating expenses primarily consist of human resource costs, depreciation, professional fees associated with filings required by the securities laws of the United States, consulting fees for a Chinese financial advisory company and business taxes, etc. We incurred $571,821 and $ 377,268 in business taxes for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. We classified these business taxes as selling expenses. As we discussed above, we are planning to be listing on ASX main board and so we were restructured since July 2015 and lose the interest of our operating company by 40%. We treated the reduce of our interest by 40% as a stock compensation to our shareholders and consultants for a total of $37,762,400 it was recorded under our G&A expenses. This is the main reason that caused such sharp increase in our operating expenses. In addition, because our two new farms in Harbin were started to be used for the six months ended December 31, 2015, the expenses, such as human costs, depreciation, lease and water & electricity, incurred for our sales and admin departments for these two farms were recorded as our operating expenses. That’s another reason caused the increase in our operating expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2015 by comparing with the same period in 2014.

 

Operating income (loss)

 

As a result of the foregoing, we had operating loss of $17,912,811 for the six months ended December 31, 2015, representing a decrease of $39,544,126, as compared to operating income of $21,631,315 for the six months ended December 31, 2014.

 

Non-operating income (expenses)

 

For the six months ended December 31, 2015, non-operating income consists primarily of interest income of $346,544 earned on the outstanding notes receivable from the farmers and other non operating income of $99,399 which mainly consists of bank interest earned. Non-operating expenses consist of the loss on the disposal of mature biological assets of $105,015. For the six months ended December 31, 2014, non-operating income consists primarily of interest income of $262,628 earned on the outstanding notes receivable from the farmers and other non operating income of $114,787 which mainly consists of bank interest earned. Non-operating expenses consist of the loss on the disposal of mature biological assets of $1,099,748.

The provision for income taxes was $2,441,438 and $5,259,559 for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, primarily representing the enterprise income tax on the income of Zhongxian Information. Net income (loss) before noncontrolling interests was $(20,013,321) and $15,649,423 for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, which represented a decrease in $35,662,744 or 228%. Originally we own 99% of Xinhua Cattle’s shares and our non controlling interest is only 1% of Xinhua’s net income. On July 16, 2015, as we transferred 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Value Development to China Dairy, which is 60% owned indirectly by us through our wholly owned subsidiary, Hope Diary.

Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment

 

Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Our local currency, Renminbi, is our functional currency. All asset and liability accounts have been translated using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date.  Equity accounts have been translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred.    Statements of income and other comprehensive income and cash flows have been translated using the average exchange rate for the periods presented.  Adjustments resulting from the translation of our consolidated financial statements are recorded as other comprehensive income (loss).    Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, we had no bank debt but amounts owed to shareholders of $1,607,104 and $937,524, respectively. The amounts due to our stockholders was principally for the professional fees incurred for being a reporting company in the United States and also will be in the Australian stock exchange from our stockholders’ personal bank accounts because of the restriction of official bank transfers abroad by the Bank of China. At the same time, we had $29,185,601 and $54,145,781 in cash at December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015 as well as working capital of $50,969,571 and $64,685,249, respectively.

 

Operating activities

 

During the six months ended December 31, 2015, our operating activities provided $10,423,550 in net cash, compared to $22,177,249 during the six months ended December 31, 2014. The net cash provided in the six months ended December 31, 2015 was significantly higher than our net income primarily due to the increase in deferred income tax liabilities of $2,441,438 and the stock compensation for shareholders and consultants of $37,762,400. The net cash provided in the six months ended December 31, 2014 was much more than the net income primarily due to the increase in the deferred income tax liabilities of $5,259,559.

 

Investing activities

 

During the six months ended December 31, 2015, our investing activities provided a cash outflow of $33,147,429 compared with a cash outflow of $8,332,135 for the six months ended December 31, 2014. The food costs and feeding expenses for biological properties used cash of $8,165,115 and $4,741,913 for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. For the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we spent $5,767,590 and $4,550,000, respectively, for purchasing milk cows. Conversely, we received cash of $1,074,870 and $950,304 during the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, from collection of notes receivable from the disposal of biological properties in 2011 and 2014. For the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we also received $180,397 and $10,400 in cash from our disposal of biological properties, respectively. For the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we also spent $20,469,991 and 926, respectively, for addition of PP&E for daily operations. The material increase during the six months ended December 31, 2015 was the production facilities, office buildings, cow houses, and forage storage built and refurbished on the new land, which mostly were completed and in service before December 31, 2015.

 

Financing activities

 

Our financing activities mainly included proceeds from shareholders and repayment to shareholders. For the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we received $77,517 and $248,450 from shareholders, respectively. For the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, we repaid of $0 and $65,556 to our shareholders, respectively.

  

We have historically financed our operations through cash generated from our fresh milk sales and commissions from milk sales from local farmers. Over the long term, it is our expectation to utilize our additional capital resources to expand our operating activities. At the present time, however, we are able to operate profitably without any significant additional investment. Moreover, our observation of the equity markets indicates that we would be unlikely to obtain financing, or if available, on favorable terms at this time. Accordingly, our near term plan is to finance our operations with our current working capital and with the expected income from our ongoing operations.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Basis of Accounting and Presentation

 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015 and for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the SEC.

 

55

 

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s primary sources of revenues are derived from (a) sale of fresh milk to Chinese manufacturing and distribution companies of dairy products and (b) commissions from local farmers on their monthly milk sales.  The Company’s revenue recognition policies comply with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104. Revenues from the sale of milk are recognized when the milk is delivered and the title is transferred, the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, the price is fixed and determinable and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured.

 

Milk sales revenue is recognized when the title to the goods has been passed to our customers, which is the date when the goods are delivered to designated locations and accepted by the customers and the previously discussed requirements are met.  Fresh milk is delivered to our customers on a daily basis.  The customers’ acceptance occurs upon inspection of quality and measurement of quantity at the time of delivery. The Company does not provide the customer with the right of return.  Sales commission revenue is recognized on a monthly basis based on monthly sales reports received from the dairy companies.

 

Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and financial officers as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2015, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be included in our periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms due to a material weakness related to the lack of accounting personnel with sufficient experience in maintaining books and records and preparing financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. 

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

No changes were made to our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
