WINHA INTERNATIONAL GROUP LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2016 AND 2015
(IN U.S. $) (UNAUDITED)


1.     ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Winha International Group Limited ("Winha International") was incorporated in Nevada on April 15, 2013.  The subsidiaries of the Company and their principal activities are described as follows
 
Winha International and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the "Company". The Company retails local specialty products through its seven self-operated physical stores.  The store are supplemented by two restaurants, the first of which the Company opened in April 2015. In addition, the Company has granted 44 franchises to use the Company's tradename, store style and its other resources. The Company plans to open additional  restaurants and add additional franchisees during fiscal 2017. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company entered into agreements with six individials to assume the operations of six of its retail stores located in Sanshui, Shunde, Chancheng, Xiaolan, Dongguan and Guangzhou. The stores continue to operate under the Company's trade name. The Company derives revenues from wholesaling its products to these six stores.
 
Until November 27, 2015, the Company operated its business through a variable interest entity, Zhongshan Winha Electronic Commerce Company Limited ("Zhongshan Winha"), which has two wholly owned limited liability subsidiaries, Zhongshan Supermarket Limited ("Zhongshan Supermarket") and Zhongshan Winha Catering Management Co., Ltd. ("Winha Catering"), as well as three incorporated branches.  The Company had the controlling interest in Zhongshan Winha via its wholly owned subsidiary Shenzhen Winha Information Technologies Company Ltd. ("Shenzhen Winha") through a series of contractual arrangements. On November 27, 2015, the shareholders of Zhongshan Winha transferred their stock to Shenzhen Winha upon the exercise of its option to purchase all of the registered equity. The purchase price was Renminbi (RMB) 1, approximately US $0.16.  Zhongshan Winha, therefore, is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Shenzhen Winha.
 
In May 2015, C&V International Company Limited ("C&V"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Winha International, set up a wholly owned subsidiary, Australia Winha Commerce and Trade Limited ("Australian Winha"). In February 2016, Sanmei International Investment Co., Ltd ("Sanmei Investment"), a company incorporated in Anguilla on April 23, 2013, transferred 100% of its shares to Winha International. Subsequently, Winha International transferred the shares of C&V to Sanmei Investment, and C&V transferred the shares of Australian Winha to Sanmei Investment.

2.      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Foreign Currency Translation (continued)
For the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, foreign currency translation adjustments of $(79,829) and $(346,926), respectively, $(706,565) and $(246,844), respectively have been reported as other comprehensive (loss) income. Other comprehensive (loss) 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 the PRC's political and economic conditions. Any significant revaluation of the RMB may materially affect the Company's financial condition in terms of US dollar reporting. The PRC has devalued the RMB by approximately 2.9 % subsequent to March 31, 2016. Further devaluations could occur in the future.
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, effective or will continue.

2.      SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
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 disclosure 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.
Prepaid Expenses
Prepaid expenses as of September 30, 2016 mainly represent the prepayments of approximately $5,699,000 for the land lease and crop planting expenses. Prepaid expenses as of March 31, 2016 mainly represent the prepayment of approximately $174,000 for prepaid decoration expenses of the Company's new stores. The non-current portion of prepaid expense of approximately $2,993,000 is for the land lease.
Advances from Customers
Advances from customers represents prepaid cards purchased by customers at our retail locations. Advances from customers was $30,632 and $769,814 as of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively. These cards are no longer being issued.
Website Development Costs
The Company accounts for website development costs in accordance with ASC 350-50, Accounting for Website Development Costs, wherein website development costs are segregated into three activities:
 
1.
Initial stage (planning), whereby the related costs are expensed.
   
2.
Development stage (web application, infrastructure, graphics), whereby the related costs are capitalized and amortized once the website is ready for use. Costs for development of content for the website may be expensed or capitalized depending on the circumstances of the expenditures.
   
3.
Operating stage, whereby the related costs are expensed as incurred. Upgrades are usually expensed, unless they add additional functionality.

Revenues are derived from the sale of food products to these six stores. The Company recognizes revenue for product sales upon transfer of title to the six stores. Stores purchase orders and/or contracts are generally used to determine the existence of an arrangement.

2.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Revenue Recognition (continued)
Zhongshan Winha grants certain commercial customers limited rights to return products and provides price protection for inventories held by resellers at the time of published price reductions. Zhongshan Winha establishes an estimated allowance for future product returns based upon historical return experience when the related revenue is recorded and provides for appropriate price protection reserves when pricing adjustments are approved.
Zhongshan Winha's return policy allows customers to return their merchandise in the original box and/or packaging within 7 days of purchase.  The Company has not experienced material returns.
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 prices or valuation techniques that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurements.

2.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)
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 measurement.  Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.  As of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, none of the Company's assets and liabilities were required to be reported at fair value on a recurring basis.  Carrying values of non-derivative financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, inventory, prepaid expenses, advances to suppliers, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and advances from customers approximate their fair values due to the short term nature of these financial instruments.  There were no changes in methods or assumptions during the periods presented.
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 considers all accounts receivable at September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 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 of merchandise and food products, is stated at the lower of cost or market. The value of inventory is determined using the weighted average cost method.  Inventories also include approximately $92,000 of the costs for growing crops on the leased farmland.
The Company estimates an allowance for excessive or unusable inventories.  Inventory is reported net of such allowances, if any. There was no allowance for excessive or unusable inventories as of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation.  Cost includes the price paid to acquire the asset, and any expenditure that substantially increases the asset's 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.
During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company acquired various fruit orchards for $9,425,559. The fruit orchards consist of 41 different kinds of fruits in various areas in China. The book value of the orchards includes costs related to saplings, fertilizer, pesticide, water, electricity, labor and land leasing. The planting costs are capitalized. The Company also capitalized $453,134 for ten greenhouses utilized for the cultivation of vegetables.
The estimated useful lives for property, plant and equipment categories are as follows:
Furniture, fixtures and equipment
3 to 5 years
Leasehold improvements
Over the shorter of the remaining lease term or estimated useful life of the improvements.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company follows FASB ASC 360, "Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", 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 the impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds the future undiscounted cash flows attributable to those assets. The Company wrote off its website development costs during the three months ended September 30, 2016.
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.  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.  A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.  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 the 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 these tax positions.  As of September 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, the Company did not record any liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common 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 net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted income per common share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the effect of any potential dilutive shares outstanding during the period. There were no dilutive shares outstanding during the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.  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 the period reflected in the accompanying consolidated statement of income and other comprehensive income.
Statutory Reserve
The Company's China-based subsidiaries and related entities are required to make appropriations of retained earnings for certain non-distributable reserve funds.
Pursuant to the China Foreign Investment Enterprises laws, the Company's China-based subsidiaries, are required to make appropriations from their after-tax profit as determined under generally accepted accounting principles in the PRC (the "after-tax-profit under PRC GAAP") to a general non-distributable reserve fund. Each year, at least 10% of each entities after-tax-profit under PRC GAAP is required to be set aside as a general reserve fund until  the fund equals 50% of the registered capital of the applicable entity.

The fund is not allowed to be transferred to the Company in terms of cash dividends, loans or advances, nor is it allowed for distribution except under liquidation.
The required transfer to the statutory reserve fund was $306,465 and $547,381, respectively, for the six months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

3.     RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This ASU addresses the classification of certain specific cash flow issues including debt prepayment or extinguishment costs, settlement of certain debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of certain insurance claims and distributions received from equity method investees. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this ASU will have on its consolidated statement of cash flows.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The new standard requires financial assets measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, through an allowance for credit losses that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. The standard will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2020, with early application permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this new accounting guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
In May, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue with Contracts with Customers: Narrow-scope Improvements and Practical Expedients, which is an amendment to ASU No. 2014-09 that clarifies the objective of the collectability criterion, to allow entities to exclude amounts collected from customers from all sales taxes from the transaction price, to specify the measurement date for noncash consideration is contract inception, variable consideration guidance applies only to variability resulting from reasons other than the form of the consideration, and clarification on contract modifications at transition. The implementation guidelines follow ASU No. 2014-09.
In April 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This guidance supersedes current guidance on revenue recognition in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. In addition, there are disclosure requirements related to the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue recognition. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No.2015-14 to defer the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 for all entities by one year. For public business entities that follow U.S. GAAP, the deferral results in the new revenue standard being effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

3.     RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (CONTINUED)
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases. The new standard establishes a right-of-use ("ROU") model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (ASU 2015-17), which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by requiring deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. This accounting standard update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
 
In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. The amendment in this ASU defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 for all entities for one year. Public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans should apply the guidance in ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. This accounting standard update is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

        Basis of Presentation
The Company records its investment in its subsidiaries under the equity method of accounting.  Such investments are presented as "Investment in subsidiaries" on the condensed balance sheet and the subsidiaries' profits are presented as "Share of earnings from investment in subsidiaries" in the condensed statement of operations.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. The parent only financial information has been derived from the Company's consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements.
There were no cash transactions in the US parent company during the three and six months ended September 30, 2016.
        Restricted Net Assets
Under PRC laws and regulations, the Company's PRC subsidiaries are restricted in their ability to transfer certain of their net assets to the Company in the form of dividend payments, loans or advances. The restricted net assets of the Company's PRC subsidiaries amounted to approximately $26,396,888 as of March 31, 2016.
The Company's operations and revenues are conducted and generated in the PRC, and all of the Company's revenues being earned and currency received are denominated in RMB.  RMB is subject to the foreign exchange control regulations in China, and, as a result, the Company may be unable to distribute any dividends outside of China due to PRC foreign exchange control regulations that restrict the Company's ability to convert RMB into US Dollars.

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read along with our financial statements and notes thereto. This section includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our predictions.
Events Affecting Consolidation

We operate our business in China through Zhongshan Winha. We expect that virtually all of our revenue will be derived from Zhongshan Winha. On August 1, 2013, our subsidiary, Shenzhen Winha, entered into a set of contractual agreements with Zhongshan Winha and its equity owners, including an exclusive business cooperation agreement, exclusive option agreement, loan agreement, share pledge agreement, power of attorney and spousal consents. Shenzhen Winha, through these arrangements, assumed operational control of Zhongshan Winha and became the primary beneficiary of those operations. As a result, Zhongshan Winha was considered a variable interest entity with respect to Shenzhen Winha and, as a result, from August 1, 2013 through November 27, 2015, the financial statements of Zhongshan Winha were consolidated with our Company's financial statements.
The control of our operations through these contractual arrangements created risks for our business. If Zhongshan Winha and its shareholders failed to perform their obligations under the contractual arrangements, or if we suffered significant delay or other obstacles in the process of enforcing these contractual arrangements, or if legal remedies under PRC laws that we relied on were not available or effective, our business and operations could have been severely disrupted, which could have materially and adversely affected our results of operations and our ability to generate revenue in the PRC and could have damaged our reputation. To avoid such risk, on November 27, 2015, Shenzhen Winha exercised its option to purchase the registered equity of Zhongshan Winha from the shareholders of Zhongshan Winha.  Upon the exercise of the purchase option, Zhongshan Winha became a wholly owned subsidiary of Shenzhen Winha. The financial statements of Zhongshan Winha remain consolidated with our Company's financial statements, but now as a subsidiary.
In May 2015, C&V International Company Limited ("C&V"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Winha International, set up a wholly owned subsidiary in Australia, Australia Winha Commerce and Trade Limited ("Australian Winha"). In February 2016, 100% of the outstanding shares of Sanmei International Investment Co., Ltd ("Sanmei Investment"), a company incorporated in Anguilla on April 23, 2013, were transferred to Winha International Group Limited. Winha International Group Limited then transferred the shares of its wholly owned subsidiary, C&V, to Sanmei Investment.
In March 2016, C&V transferred the shares of Australian Winha to Sanmei Investment. Subsequently, Sanmei Investment transferred 29% of the outstanding shares of Australian Winha to persons and entities who were either affiliates of, or consultants to,  the Company (5% to Beijing Ruihua Future, 5% to Donghe Group, 7% to Zhuowei Zhong, 5% to Xinxi Zhong, 4% to Zhifei Huang and 3% to Chun Yan Winne Lam), and transferred 11% of the shares of Australian Winha to persons who are suppliers to Zhongshan Winha. The effect of above transaction reduced the interest of the Company in its Australian subsidiary, and indirectly in Zhongshan Winha, by 40%.

Franchise operations contributed $3,285,710 to revenue during the six months ended September 30, 2016, consisting of upfront franchise fees of $1,408,223 and monthly administrative fees.
 
·
During the three months ended September 30, 2016, we stopped leasing our retail stores in Sanshui, Shunde, Chancheng, Xiaolan, Dongguan and Guangzhou, outsourced them to six independent individuals.  We continued marketing of our products to these stores, which contributed $1,867,379 to our revenues for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016.

During the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, we had total revenue of $14,866,148 and $28,783,982, respectively, representing an increase of 52% and 87%, respectively, when compared with the three and six months ended September 30, 2015. The following table shows the components of revenue:

Gross profit
Gross profit for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 increased to $6,295,449 and $13,790,547, respectively, due to the dramatic increase in revenue. Our gross margin decreased to 42% and 48%, respectively, as compared to the 58% and 54% gross margin, respectively, that we realized during the three and six months ended September 30, 2015. However, gross profit, excluding franchise-related revenue, was only 34% and 41%, respectively, for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016. The reduction reflected the increased portion of our revenue attributable to our retail stores and wholesale marketing, which have lower margins than our custom-made sales. We expect our gross margin to change as additional revenue streams are added, although the direction will depend on the relative volume of high-margin revenue sources (e.g. custom made sales, franchising, and online) versus lower margin sources (e.g. retail stores).

Operating Expenses
Selling Expenses
Selling expenses represent the labor cost for our marketing department and retail stores, as well as expenses directly related to our marketing efforts. Selling expense for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 was $431,058 and 991,670, respectively, an increase of 101% and 140%, respectively, over the three and six months ended September 30, 2015. Selling expenses increased primarily due to the addition of a second restaurant in fiscal year 2016. We expect our selling expenses to increase in proportion to the number of additional restaurants that we open.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 totaled $557,733 and $1,080,076, respectively, representing an increase of 112% and 74%, respectively, from three and six months ended September 30, 2015. The increase was primarily due to the expansion of our overall operations, including the introduction of franchise operations and a second restaurant. In addition, our 60%-owned Australian subsidiary incurred significant expenses in connection with its preparation for listing on the Australian Stock Exchange ("ASX"), which were recorded as G&A expenses as well. As we expand our operations, particularly as we initiate our multi-faceted marketing program, we expect general and administrative expenses to increase, reflecting the staffing requirements of more complex and expanded operations.
Net Income
After taking into account insignificant amounts of other income (loss), we recorded pre-tax net income of $4,844,579 and $5,147,179, respectively, $11,251,261 and $7,218,135, respectively, for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. Corporate income in China is subject to income tax at a rate of 25%. Our provision for income taxes was $1,416,852 and $1,261,690, respectively, $2,947,995 and $1,817,227, respectively, for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, primarily representing the enterprise income tax on the income of our Chinese operating entity. After deducting the income tax, we had a net income before non-controlling interests of $3,427,727 and $3,885,489, respectively, $8,303,266 and $5,400,908, respectively, during the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. However, because we transferred 40% of Australian Winha to related parties and suppliers in March 2016, we are required to allocate 40% of the net income (loss) realized after that date by Australian Winha and its subsidiaries to the non-controlling interest. As a result, net income attributed to the non-controlling interests was $1,371,091 and $0, respectively, $3,321,307 and $0, respectively, for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Our net income attributable to the common stockholders of the Company (i.e. after the allocation to the non-controlling interest) was $2,056,636 and $3,885,489, respectively, representing $0.04 per share and $0.08 per share, respectively, and $4,981,959 and $5,400,908, respectively, representing $0.10 per share and $0.11per share, respectively, for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015.

Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Our principal 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. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, foreign currency translation adjustments of $(76,011) and $(346,926), respectively, $(702,747) and $(246,844), respectively, have been reported as other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income (loss), respectively. The significant increase in the translation adjustments was due to the PRC's devaluation of its currency. Further devaluation could occur.
Liquidity and Capital Resources 
As of September 30, 2016, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $6,563,778, compared to $21,548,630 as of March 31, 2016. The following table summarizes our cash flows for the six months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015:

During the six months ended September 30, 2016, our operations yielded $8,303,266 in net income but only provided cash totaling $951,300. The discrepancy between net income and cash was primarily due to our pre-payment of $5,525,358 to lease farm land over the next several years. In addition, our  accounts receivable increased by $2,460,650 during that period, and the balance of advances from customers decreased by $739,182, all of which was partially offset by a reduction of $942,652 in our inventory. During the six months ended September 30, 2015, our operations yielded $5,400,908 in net income and provided cash totaling $7,535,499. The difference was primarily caused by an increase in taxes payable of $1,222,709 and a decrease in inventory of $830,599.
We received loans of $370,605 from a stockholder who paid our professional fees in the United States and in Australia during the six months ended September 30, 2016, , which is classified as a financing activity for the six months ended September 30, 2016. With a portion of these loans, we paid expenses of $304,452 related to listing on the ASX. During the six months ended September 30, 2016, we also satisfied  convertible debt issued by our Australian subsidiary to the three independent individuals by payment of $5,435,466. As a result, net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended September 30, 2016 was $5,064,861. For the six months ended September 30, 2015, a capital contribution to our Chinese operating company of $816,001, the sale by our Australian subsidiary of convertible debt for $564,200, and a stockholder loan of $26,345, resulted in net cash provided by financing activities of $1,406,546.
39

With the cash from operations and financing activities, we used $10,397,016 to purchase fixed assets during the six months ended September 30, 2016, which was classified as cash used in investing activities. This purchase primarily consisted of the fruit orchard located on the farmland that we leased during the same period. During the six months ended September 30, 2015, we purchased fixed assets for $326,482 and spent $9,827 to further develop our website, resulting in total cash used in investing activities of $336,309.
We had working capital of approximately $11,000,000 as of September 30, 2016, a decrease of approximately $5,000,000 compared to March 31, 2016. The decrease was principally the result of the cash used by investing and financing activities.
Our debt obligations at September 30, 2016 consisted of $907,804 in stockholder loans payable on demand. Since our cash balance far exceeds our debt obligations, we believe that our capital resources will be adequate to fund our Company's operations for at least the next 12 months.
Transfer of Cash
According to PRC laws and regulations, in the event that we need to finance our PRC operations in the future, we are allowed to provide funding by means of capital contributions and/or loans to Zhongshan Winha. The loans would be subject to applicable government registration and approval requirements. We may not be able to complete the registration or obtain these government approvals on a timely basis. If we fail to complete such registration or receive such approvals, our ability to finance our PRC operations may be negatively affected, which could adversely affect our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business.
Current PRC regulations permit our PRC subsidiaries to pay dividends to us. However, payment of dividends is subject to applicable regulatory requirements. Furthermore, cash transfers from our PRC subsidiaries to their parent companies outside of China are subject to PRC government control of currency conversion. We receive substantially all of our revenues in RMB. Under our current corporate structure, our income is primarily derived by our PRC subsidiaries. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from trade-related transactions can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from the State Administration of Foreign Exchange ("SAFE") by complying with certain procedural requirements. As profits and dividends are current account items, any revenue generated in the PRC may be paid to shareholders outside of the PRC as profit or dividends without prior approval from SAFE so long as we comply with certain procedural requirements. However, the PRC government may also, at its discretion, restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us from obtaining sufficient foreign currency to satisfy our currency demands, we may not be able to pay dividends in foreign currencies to our shareholders. Our inability to obtain the requisite approvals for converting RMB into foreign currencies, any delays in receiving such approvals or any future restrictions on currency exchanges may restrict the ability of our PRC subsidiary to remit sufficient foreign currency to pay dividends or other payments to us, or otherwise satisfy its foreign currency denominated obligations. 
The Company currently intends to reinvest its earnings in expanding its operations and currently has no plans to pay any dividends.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
In preparing our financial statements we are required to formulate working policies regarding valuation of our assets and liabilities and to develop estimates of those values.  In our preparation of the financial statements for the six months ended September 30, 2016, there were no estimates made which were (a) subject to a high degree of uncertainty and (b) material to our results.  
Impact of Accounting Pronouncements
There were no recent accounting pronouncements that have or will have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
Off Balance Sheet Transactions 
We do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Not applicable.
 
ITEM 4.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.  Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule13a-15(e) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission) as of September 30, 2016.  The evaluation revealed that there are material weaknesses in our disclosure controls, specifically:
·
We have not achieved the desired level of corporate governance with regard to identifying and measuring the risk of material misstatement. Because of our limited internal resources, we lack key monitoring mechanisms such as independent directors and audit committee to oversee and monitor the Company's risk management, business strategies and financial reporting procedures.
   
·
We have not designed and implemented controls to maintain appropriate segregation of duties in our manual and computer-based business processes which could affect the Company's purchasing controls, the limits on the delegation of authority for expenditures, and the proper review of manual journal entries.
   
·
Our accounting department personnel have limited knowledge and experience in US GAAP and reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").  To remediate the material weakness, the management has hired an external consultant with extensive experience in US GAAP and reports to the SEC, who is responsible for assisting the Company with (i) the preparation of its financial statements in accordance with US GAAP and (ii) its periodic reports with the SEC.
Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's system of disclosure controls and procedures was not effective as of September 30, 2016.
