NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 AND 2019 (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Nature of Operations – China Pharma Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation, owns 100% of Onny Investment Limited (Onny), a British Virgin Islands corporation, which owns 100% of Hainan Helpson Medical & Biotechnology Co., Ltd (Helpson), a company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (the PRC). China Pharma Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries are referred to herein as the Company.
On December 31, 2012, China Pharma Holdings, Inc. consummated a reincorporation merger for the purpose of changing its state of incorporation from Delaware to Nevada, pursuant to the terms and conditions of an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated December 27, 2012. The reincorporation merger was approved by stockholders holding the majority of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock on December 21, 2012.
Onny acquired 100% of the ownership in Helpson on May 25, 2005, by entering into an Equity Transfer Agreement with Helpson’s three former shareholders. The transaction was approved by the Commercial Bureau of Hainan Province on June 12, 2005 and Helpson received the Certificate of Approval for Establishment of Enterprises with Foreign Investment in the PRC on the same day. Helpson received its business license evidencing its WFOE (Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprise) status on June 21, 2005.
The Company has acquired and continues to acquire well-accepted medical formulas to add to its diverse portfolio of Western and Chinese medicines.
Liquidity and Going Concern
As of March 31, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $0.1 million and an accumulated deficit of $26.6 million. The Company’s Chairperson, Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer has advanced an aggregate of $742,880 at March 31, 2020 to provide working capital and enable the Company’s required payments related to its construction loan facility. The Company anticipates operating losses to continue for the foreseeable future due to, among other things, costs related to the production of its existing products, debt service costs and costs of selling and administrative organization. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. To alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, management plans to enhance the sales model of advance payment, and further strengthen its collection of accounts receivable. Further, the Company is currently exploring strategic alternatives to accelerate the launch of nutrition products. In addition, management believes that the Company’s existing fixed assets can serve as collateral to support additional bank loans. As discussed in Note 14, in April 2020 the Company obtained a line of credit from a bank for an aggregate amount of RMB 10,000,000 (approximately $1.4 million), of which RMB 5,000,000 (approximately $0.7 million) have been advanced to the Company. While the current plans will allow the Company to fund its operations in the next twelve months, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve its future strategic alternatives raising substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
Pursuant to the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 205-40, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern management must evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. This evaluation initially does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the financial statements are issued. When substantial doubt exists under this methodology, management evaluates whether the mitigating effect of its plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of management’s plans, however, is only considered if both (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued, and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.
Under ASC 205-40, the strategic alternatives being pursued by the Company cannot be considered probable at this time because none of the Company’s current plans have been finalized at the time of the issuance of these financial statements and the implementation of any such plan is not probable of being effectively implemented as none of the plans are entirely within the Company’s control. Accordingly, substantial doubt is deemed to exist about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these financial statements are issued.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of the uncertainties described above.

CHINA PHARMA HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 AND 2019 (UNAUDITED)
Consolidation and Basis of Presentation – The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are expressed in United States dollars. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company including its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.
Helpson’s functional currency is the Chinese Renminbi. Helpson’s revenue and expenses are translated into United States dollars at the average exchange rate for the period. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate as of the end of the reporting period. Gains or losses from translating Helpson’s financial statements are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a component of stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity that is party to the transaction are included in the results of operations.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated on consolidation. However, the results of operations included in such financial statements may not necessarily be indicative of annual results. Such financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2020 (“2019 Annual Report”).
Accounting Estimates - The methodology used to prepare the Company’s financial statements is in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires the management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. Therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates.
The Company uses the same accounting policies in preparing its quarterly and annual financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted.
Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents include interest bearing and non-interest bearing bank deposits, money market accounts, and short-term banker’s acceptances notes purchased with maturities of three months or less.
Restricted Cash – Restricted cash includes cash that has been deposited with a bank to satisfy obligations outstanding under banker’s acceptance notes issued by the Company as discussed in Note 7.
Trade Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts – Trade accounts receivables are carried at the original invoiced amounts less an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowances for doubtful accounts are calculated based on a detailed review of certain individual customer accounts and an estimation of the overall economic conditions affecting the Company’s customer base. The Company reviews a customer’s credit history before extending credit to the customer. If the financial condition of its customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additions to the allowance would be required. A provision is made against accounts receivable to the extent they are considered unlikely to be collected. Charges to bad debt expense totaled $30,246 and $13,312 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Trade accounts receivable that have been fully allowed for and determined to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance in the period the determination is made. The Company charged off uncollectible trade accounts receivable balances in the amount of $0 against the allowance for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Customer balances outstanding for more than one year are allowed for at a greater rate than more current balances when calculating the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Advances to Suppliers and Advances from Customers – Common practice in the PRC is to make advances to suppliers for materials and to receive advances from customers for finished products. Advances to suppliers are applied to trade accounts payable when the materials are received. Advances received from customers are applied against trade accounts receivable when finished products are sold. The Company reviews a supplier’s credit history and background information before advancing a payment. If the financial condition of its suppliers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to deliver goods or provide services, the Company would recognize bad debt expense in the period they are considered unlikely to be collected.
Inventory – Inventory consists of raw materials, work in process and finished goods and is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using a weighted average. For work in process and manufactured inventories, cost consists of raw materials, direct labor and an allocated portion of the Company’s production overhead. The Company writes down excess and obsolete inventory to its estimated net realizable value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. For finished goods and work in process, if the estimated net realizable value for an inventory item, which is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predicable costs to completion and disposal, is lower than its cost, the specific inventory item is written down to its estimated net realizable value. Net realizable value for raw materials is based on replacement cost. Provisions for inventory write-downs are included in the cost of revenues in the consolidated statements of operations. Inventories are carried at this lower cost basis until sold or scrapped.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 AND 2019 (UNAUDITED)
Valuation of Long-Lived Assets – The carrying values of long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. When such an event occurs, the Company projects the undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition over the remaining life of the asset. If projections indicate that the carrying value of an asset will not be recovered, it is reduced by the estimated excess of the carrying value over the projected discounted cash flows estimated to be generated by the asset. If there is uncertainty both in timing and amount, the Company will use the projected discounted cash flows to be generated by the asset. There was no impairment loss recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
Property, Plant and Equipment – Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expenses as incurred and major improvements are capitalized. Gains or losses on sale, trade-in or retirement are included in operations during the period of disposition. Depreciation relating to office equipment was included in general and administrative expenses, while all other depreciation was included in cost of revenue.
Revenue Recognition – Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services and is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration that an entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The Company does not disaggregate its revenue streams as the economic factors underlying the contracts are similar and provide no significant distinction. The amount of revenue that is recorded reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods. The Company applies the following five-step model in order to determine this amount: (i) identification of the promised goods in the contract; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation. The Company utilized the modified retrospective method of adoption effective January 1, 2018.
The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. Once a contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606 at contract inception, the Company reviews the contract to determine which performance obligations the Company must deliver and which of these performance obligations are distinct. The Company recognizes as revenues the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s contracts are fixed price and reflect standalone pricing for each items. Due to the nature of the products sold, there are no returns. Generally, the Company’s performance obligations are transferred to customers at a point in time, typically upon buyer’s designated carrier or the buyer picks up the goods at the Company’s warehouse.
For all reporting periods, the Company has not disclosed the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for all product revenue contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, which is an optional exemption that is permitted under the adoption rules. The Company has received advance deposits for orders less than one year. These advances total $1,940,728 and $505,398 and are recorded as a liability on the accompanying balance sheet as “Advances from customers” at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
Leases –The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. The Company elected the practical expedient, for all asset classes, to account for each lease component of a contract and its associated non-lease components as a single lease component, rather than allocating a standalone value to each component of a lease. For purposes of calculating operating lease obligations under the standard, the Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such option. The Company’s leases do not contain material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.
The discount rate used to measure a lease obligation should be the rate implicit in the lease; however, the Company’s operating leases generally do not provide an implicit rate. Accordingly, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement to determine the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is an entity-specific rate which represents the rate of interest a lessee would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term with similar payments.
Cost of Revenues – Cost of revenues includes wages, materials, depreciation, handling charges, and other expenses associated with the manufacture and delivery of products.
Research and Development – Research and development expenditures are recorded as expenses in the period in which they occur.

Basic and Diluted Loss per Common Share - Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is calculated to give effect to potentially issuable dilutive common shares.
There were no potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Credit Risk – The carrying amount of accounts receivable included in the balance sheet represents the Company’s exposure to credit risk in relation to its financial assets. No other financial asset carries a significant exposure to credit risk. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of each customer’s financial condition. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts and such allowances in the aggregate have not exceeded management’s estimates.
The Company has its cash in bank deposits primarily at state owned banks located in the PRC. Historically, deposits in PRC banks have been secured due to the state policy of protecting depositors’ interests. The PRC promulgated a Bankruptcy Law in August 2006, effective June 1, 2007, which contains provisions for the implementation of measures for the bankruptcy of PRC banks. Company bank accounts in China are not subject to a certain insurance coverage and will follow the provisions set forth in the PRC Bankruptcy Law should any bank where the Company has accounts declare bankruptcy.
Interest Rate Risk – The Company is exposed to the risk arising from changing interest rates, which may affect the ability of repayment of existing debts and viability of securing future debt instruments within the PRC.
Reclassification – Certain amounts in the prior period presented have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. There was no impact on previously reported assets, net income or total cash flows.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), which introduces new guidance for the accounting for credit losses on instruments within its scope. The new guidance introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. It also modifies the impairment model for available-for-sale (AFS) debt securities and provides for a simplified accounting model for purchased financial assets with credit deterioration since their origination. The pronouncement will be effective for public business entities that are SEC filers in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application of the guidance will be permitted for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not anticipate the guidance will have a material impact on its financial statements.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The amendment simplifies the accounting for income taxes by eliminating some exceptions to the general approach in ASC 740, Income Taxes. It also clarifies certain aspects of the existing guidance to promote more consistent application, among other things. The guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning within 2021 with early adoption permitted.
From time to time, the FASB or other standards setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB ASCs are communicated through issuance of ASUs. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the recently issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted in the future, is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

NOTE 4 - INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Intangible assets represent the cost of medical formulas approved for production by the National Medical Products Administration (the “NMPA”, formerly China Food and Drug Administration, CFDA). The Company did not obtain NMPA production approval for any new medical formulas during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 and no costs were reclassified from advances to intangible assets during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Approved medical formulas are amortized from the date NMPA approval is obtained over their individually identifiable estimated useful life, which range from ten to thirteen years. It is at least reasonably possible that a change in the estimated useful lives of the medical formulas could occur in the near term due to changes in the demand for the drugs and medicines produced from these medical formulas. Amortization expense relating to intangible assets was $8,808 and $22,622 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, which was included in the general and administrative expenses. Medical formulas typically do not have a residual value at the end of their amortization period.
The Company evaluates each approved medical formula for impairment at the date of NMPA approval, when indications of impairment are present and also at the date of each financial statement. The Company’s evaluation is based on an estimated undiscounted net cash flow model, which considers currently available market data for the related drug and the Company’s estimated market share. If the carrying value of the medical formula exceeds the estimated future net cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the medical formula, which is determined by the estimated discounted future net cash flows. No impairment loss was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
Intangible assets consisted solely of NMPA approved medical formulas as follows:

NOTE 5 – ADVANCES FOR PURCHASES OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS
In order to expand the number of medicines the Company manufactured and marketed, it entered into contracts with independent laboratories and others for the purchase of medical formulas. Although NMPA approval had not been obtained for these medical formulas at the dates of the respective contracts, the objective of the contracts was for the Company to purchase NMPA-approved medical formulas once the NMPA approval process is completed. The Company holds the title to one valid patent that is related to one of its medical formulas. With respect to the other patent title the Company held, the management decided not to renew the patent during 2019 as it did not have any practical value because the related advance purchase to this pipeline product was written off as of December 31, 2018.
Prior to entering into contracts with the Company, laboratories are typically required to complete all research and development to determine the content of the medical formula and the method to produce the generic medicine. The application to the NMPA for production approval must be made by the production facility that will produce the related product. As a result, a contract typically provides that the Company buys the medical formula from the laboratory and the laboratory is required to assist the Company in applying for and obtaining the production approval from the NMPA.
In order to promote the standard of the pharmaceutical industry in China in line with international standards, significant changes have taken place in the policies and regulations in this industry in recent years. A series of policies on consistency evaluation and drug review process have been issued, and more potential reforms and adjustments are underway. In this context, the Company believes that the uncertainties in the timetables for obtaining NMPA production approvals for products under research are increasing.
Under the new regulations and policy environment, the criteria for formulations’ development are more stringent. The Company must supplement and improve the corresponding processes and standards to meet the latest requirements of NMPA in accordance with the requirements of consistency evaluation. As a result, the Company anticipates an extended timeline on the approval process of its current pipeline products.
Under the terms of the contracts, the laboratories are required to assist the Company in obtaining production approval for the medical formulas from the NMPA. Management monitors the status of each medical formula on a regular basis in order to assess whether the laboratories are performing adequately under the contracts. If a medical product is not approved by the NMPA, as evidenced by their issuance of a denial letter, or if the laboratory breaches the contract, the laboratory is required under the contract to provide a refund to the Company of the full amount of the payments made to the laboratory for that formula, or the Company can require the application of those payments to another medical formula with the same laboratory. As a result of the refund right, the Company is ultimately purchasing an approved medical product. Accordingly, payments made prior to the issuance of production approval by the NMPA are recorded as advances for purchases of intangible assets.
To date, no formula has failed to receive NMPA production approval nor has the Company been informed or been made aware of any formula that may fail to receive such approval. However, there is no assurance that the medical products will receive production approval, and if the Company does not receive such approval, it will enforce its contractual rights to receive a refund from the laboratory or have the payments applied to another medical formula with the same laboratory.
The management determined to impair all remaining advances at December 31, 2019, but may resume the development of these formulas in the future if sufficient funding and other favorable conditions arise.

NOTE 7 – BANKER’S ACCEPTANCE NOTES PAYABLE
In April 2016, the Company entered into a Banker’s Acceptance Note Agreement with a bank. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Company can issue banker’s acceptance notes to any third party as payment of amounts owing to that third party. The Company is required to deposit with the bank an amount equal to the amounts represented by the banker’s acceptance notes issued to the third parties.

NOTE 8 – CONSTRUCTION LOAN FACILITY
The Company obtained a construction loan facility, dated June 21, 2013, in the aggregate amount of RMB 80,000,000 (approximately $13 million). The loan facility is for an eight-year term, which commenced on July 11, 2013, the initial draw-down date. The proceeds of the loan were used for and are collateralized by the construction of the Company’s new production facility and the included production line equipment and machinery. The loan bears interest based upon 110% of the PRC government’s eight-year term rate effective on the actual draw-down date, subject to annual adjustments based on 110% of the floating rate for the same type of loan on the anniversary from the draw-down date and its subsequent anniversary dates. The interest rate has remained at 5.39% on the anniversary dates which were July 10, 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. The loan required interest only payments for the first two years. Beginning July 11, 2015, the principal was due in at least two (2) annual installments with the first annual payment being due within six month period after July 10, 2015 and the second annual payment being due July 10, 2016 and each following year over the next five years through July 11, 2021 on the identical terms as described above for 2015. The Company has made all required payments due under the loan. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had no additional amounts available to it under this facility. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company made principal payments in the amount of $143,286 (RMB 1,000,000).
Principal payments required for the remaining term of the loan facility as of March 31, 2020 are as follows:
| Year | Amount | |||
| 2020 | $ | 1,975,978 | ||
| 2021 | 2,117,119 | |||
| $ | 4,093,097 | |||
Fair Value of Construction Loan Facility – Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for bank loans with similar terms and maturities, the carrying amounts of the construction loan facility outstanding as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 approximated its fair value because the underlying instrument bears an interest rate that approximated current market rates.
NOTE 9 - LEASES
The Company has leases for certain office and production facilities in the PRC which are classified as operating leases. The leases contain payment terms for fixed amounts. Options to extend are recognized as part of the lease liabilities and recognized as right to use assets when management estimates to renew the lease. There are no residual value guarantees, no variable lease payments, and no restrictions or covenants imposed by leases. The discount rate used in measuring the lease liabilities and right of use assets was determined by reviewing the Company’s incremental borrowing rate at the initial measurement date. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, operating lease cost was $22,229 and $23,346, respectively and cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities for operating cash flows from operating leases was $23,627 and $24,814, respectively. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company reported operating lease right of use assets of $112,447 and $136,779, respectively and operating use liabilities of $115,777 and $140,007, respectively. As of March 31, 2020, its operating leases had a weighted average remaining lease term of 1.27 years and a weighted average discount rate of 4.75%.
Minimum lease payments for the Company’s operating lease liabilities were as follows for the twelve month periods ended March 31:
| 2020 | 94,510 | |||
| 2021 | 25,010 | |||
| Total undiscounted cash flows | 119,520 | |||

NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax laws or rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Liabilities are established for uncertain tax positions expected to be taken in income tax returns when such positions are judged to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold based on the technical merits of the positions. Estimated interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are included as a component of other expenses. Through December 31, 2019, the Company has not identified any uncertain tax positions that it has taken. U.S. income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2016 through December 31, 2019 and the Chinese income tax return for the year ended December 31, 2019 are open for possible examination.
Under the current tax law in the PRC, the Company is and will be subject to the enterprise income tax rate of 25%.
There was no provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 respectively due to continued net losses of the Company.
As of March 31, 2020, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for PRC tax purposes of approximately $50.4 million which are available to offset any future taxable income through 2025. Approximately $21.6 million of these carryforwards will expire in December 2020. The Company also has net operating losses for United States federal income tax purposes of approximately $6.3 million of which $5.1 million are available to offset future taxable income, if any, through 2039, and $1.2 million are available for carryforward indefinitely subject to a limitation of 80% of taxable income for each tax year.
Recent U.S. federal tax legislation, commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “U.S. Tax Reform”), was signed into law on December 22, 2017. The U.S. Tax Reform significantly modified the U.S. Internal Revenue Code by, among other things, reducing the statutory U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017; limiting and/or eliminating many business deductions; migrating the U.S. to a territorial tax system with a one-time transition tax on a mandatory deemed repatriation of previously deferred foreign earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries; subject to certain limitations, generally eliminating U.S. corporate income tax on dividends from foreign subsidiaries; and providing for new taxes on certain foreign earnings.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those differences become deductible or tax loss carry forwards are utilized. Management considers projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon an assessment of the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods on which the deferred tax assets are deductible or can be utilized, management believes it is not likely for the Company to realize all benefits of the deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Therefore, the Company provided for a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets of $30,461,103 and $30,759,656 as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
The Company also incurred various other taxes, comprised primarily of business taxes, value-added taxes, urban construction taxes, education surcharges and others. Any unpaid amounts are reflected on the balance sheets as accrued taxes payable.

NOTE 11 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. To measure fair value, a hierarchy has been established which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. This hierarchy uses three levels of inputs to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities as follows: Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in less active markets, or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; and Level 3 – Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity for financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
The Company uses fair value to measure the value of the banker’s acceptance notes it holds at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The banker’s acceptance notes are recorded at cost which approximates fair value. The Company held the following assets and liabilities recorded at fair value:

The Company is authorized to issue 95,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value. The preferred stock may be issued in series with such designations, preferences, stated values, rights, qualifications or limitations as determined solely by the Company’s Board.
Employee Stock Options
2010 Incentive Plan
On November 12, 2010, the Company’s Board adopted the Company’s 2010 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which was then approved by stockholders on December 22, 2010. On October 17, 2019, the Board of Directors approved the First Amendment to the 2010 Incentive Plan (the “Amendment”), pursuant to which the term of the 2010 Incentive Plan was extended to December 31, 2029. The Amendment was adopted by the shareholders on December 19, 2019. The Plan gave the Company the ability to grant stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights and performance units to its employees, directors and consultants, or those who will become employees, directors and consultants of the Company and/or its subsidiaries. The Plan currently allows for equity awards of up to 4,000,000 shares of common stock. Through March 31, 2020, there were 175,000 shares of restricted stock granted and outstanding under the Plan. No options were outstanding as of March 31, 2020 under the Plan.
There were no securities issued from the Plan during each of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
The Company recognized no compensation expense related to the awards of common shares and the grants and modifications of stock options during each of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock prices. The Company uses historical data to estimate employee termination rates. The expected term of options granted is determined by the simplified method, which is one-half of the original contractual term. The simplified method is used due to the lack of historical share option exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.
As of March 31, 2020, there was no remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options or restricted stock grants.

NOTE 13 – RISKS & UNCERTAINTIES
Current vulnerability due to certain concentrations
For the year ended March 31, 2020, no customer accounted for more than 10% of sales and one customer accounted for 10.6% of accounts receivable. Two suppliers accounted for 45.2% and 18.8% of raw material purchases, and three different products accounted for 35.8%, 29.0% and 14.4% of revenue.
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, no customer accounted for more than 10% of sales and two customers accounted for 49.3% and 10.6% of accounts receivable. Three suppliers accounted for 26.7%, 20.6% and 11.0% of the Company’s raw material purchases, and three different products accounted for 35.0%, 24.5% and 17.0% of revenue.
Nature of Operations
Impact from the New Coronavirus Global Pandemic (“COVID-19”) - The current outbreak of COVID-19 had a material and adverse effect on the Company’s business operations. These included, but are not limited to, disruptions or restrictions on its ability to travel or to distribute its products, as well as temporary closures of its facilities or the facilities of the suppliers or customers. Any disruption or delay of the Company’s suppliers or customers would likely impact its sales and operating results. In addition, COVID-19 has resulted in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect the economies and financial markets of China and many other countries, resulting in an economic downturn that could significantly impact our operating results.
Economic environment - Substantially all of the Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC, and therefore the Company is subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies operating in the United States of America. These risks include, among others, the political, economic and legal environments and fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rate. The Company’s results from operations may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things. The unfavorable changes in global macroeconomic factors may also adversely affect the Company’s operations.
In addition, all of the Company’s revenue is denominated in the PRC’s currency of Renminbi (RMB), which must be converted into other currencies before remittance out of the PRC. Both the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of foreign currencies abroad require approval of the PRC government.
NOTE 14 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In April 2020, the Company obtained a line of credit from Postal Savings Bank of China for an aggregate amount of RMB 10,000,000 (approximately $1.4 million), of which RMB 5,000,000 (approximately $0.7 million) have been advanced. The loan bears interest at a rate of 4.25% per annum. Advances on the line of credit are due two years from the date of the advance. A third party company has guaranteed the loan as being a second priority creditor in the collateral in certain land use rights and buildings next to the creditor of the construction loan facility as discussed in Note 8. In addition, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chair of the Board personally guaranteed the new line of credit. The Company has an additional RMB 5,000,000 (approximately $0.7 million) available under the line, subject to a risk review and approval by the third party guarantee company.

Business Overview & Recent Developments
We are principally engaged in the development, manufacture and marketing of pharmaceutical products for human use in connection with a variety of high-incidence and high-mortality diseases and medical conditions prevalent in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). All of our operations are conducted in the PRC, where our manufacturing facilities are located. We manufacture pharmaceutical products in the form of dry powder injectables, liquid injectables, tablets, capsules, and cephalosporin oral solutions. The majority of our pharmaceutical products are sold on a prescription basis and all have been approved for at least one or more therapeutic indications by the National Medical Products Administration (the “NMPA”, formerly China Food and Drug Administration, CFDA based upon demonstrated safety and efficacy.
China’s consistency evaluation of generic drugs had continued to proceed in 2019. The supporting policies from central and provincial governments have been constantly issued. We have always taken the tasks of facilitating the consistency evaluation as our top priority, and worked on them actively. However, due to the continuous dynamic changes of the detailed policies, future market, expected investment, and return of investment (“ROI”) for each drug’s consistency evaluation, the whole industry, including us, has been making slow progresses in terms of the consistency evaluation.
On one hand, since initiated in 2018, two rounds of “4 + 7” (refers to 11 selected pilot cities, including 4 municipalities and 7 other cities) Group Purchasing Organization (“GPO”) activities have been carried out by the end of 2019, which significantly reduced the price of the drugs that won the bids. On the other hand, the consistency evaluation has been adopted as one of the qualification standards for participating in the GPO activities. In this context, we have to take a more cautious and flexible attitude towards the initiating and progressing any project for an existing product’s consistency evaluation and to cope with the changing macro environment of drug sales in China.
In addition, we continue to explore in the field of comprehensive healthcare. Comprehensive healthcare is a general concept proposed according to the development of the times, social needs and changes in disease spectrum. It focuses on people’s daily life, aging and disease, pays attention to all kinds of risk factors and misunderstandings affecting health, and calls for self-health management, and advocates the comprehensive care of the entire process of life. It covers all kinds of health-related information, products and services, as well as actions taken by various organizations to meet the health needs. We launched Noni enzyme, a natural, healthy and nutrition-rich food supplement at the end of 2018, and wash-free sanitizer and mask in early 2020 to address the market needs caused by COVID-19 in China.
We will continue to optimize our product structure and actively respond to the current health needs of human beings.

Market Trends
According to the data of the Chinese National Bureau of Statistics, from January to November 2019, the number of Chinese pharmaceutical manufacturing enterprises was 7,346; the operating revenue was RMB2159.65 billion (approximately USD313 billion), which represented an increase of 8.9% from the same period last year. As the medical reform deepens, the GPO has been expanded from pilot cities to the whole country, which pressed hospitals to control drug prices to reduce overall costs. The pressure of price reduction has been further transmitted to pharmaceutical manufacturers. We believe that the price control is still one of the key themes in the pharmaceutical industry in the future; and pharmaceutical manufacturing companies’ revenue is under obvious pressure.
Novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) refers to the pneumonia caused by the 2019 novel coronavirus infection. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the COVID-19 outbreak a “public health emergency of international concern” (PHEIC) on January 30, 2020. According to the Chinese National Health Commission of the People’s Republic of China, the cumulative number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 infection had reached 82,919 in China; and according to the major medias, the confirmed cases had reached 4,186,260 in the rest of the world by May 11, 2020.
We believe that several new development opportunities are emerged in China’s healthcare sector in connection with this outbreak due to the following reasons: there is a gap between prevention and treatment of diseases; the level of treatment skills and conditions of primary medical institutions needs to be improved; large hospitals are overcrowded; and there are too many restrictions on the internet healthcare service. The impact of the pandemic will bring more governmental and social attention to China’s health care industry, which we believe will promote its overall development, and trigger potential adjustments in products and service, and sales channel in the health care industry.
As a generic drug company we are presented with a huge domestic market. We believe that through further upgrades and consistency evaluations, we will be able to meet the European and American production standards, which enables us to export our products to overseas markets. In the future, cost management and control ability will gradually become an important factor in determining the competitiveness of generic pharmaceutical enterprises. Although price control leads to a decline in the profitability, the GPO’s winning enterprise has a good chance of achieving price-for-volume in order to increase its market share and support its continuous innovation transformation. In addition, consumption upgrading in China drives the increase of optional consumption. With the improvement of residents’ quality of life, the healthcare demand is also changing. We believe that there are a large number of unmet demands in comprehensive healthcare and Internet healthcare sectors.
In addition, the Office of the State Council issued “Pilot Plan for Marketing Authorization Holders” on May 24, 2016, allowing eligible drug research and development institutions and scientific researchers to become Marketing Authorization Holders (“MAH”) by obtaining drug marketing authorization and drug approval numbers from the State Council. This policy uses a management model of separating drug marketing authorization and drug production licenses, thereby allowing an MAH to produce pharmaceuticals itself or to consign production to other pharmaceutical manufacturers. This policy not only transitions our production practices to meet the European and United States standards by separating drug approval and production qualifications, and therefore changing the existing model of bundling drug approval numbers to pharmaceutical manufacturers in China, but also serves as a supplement to the ongoing consistency evaluations policy.
The Drug Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China (hereinafter referred to as the Drug Administration Law) was amended and adopted by the 12th session of the Standing Committee of the 13th National People’s Congress of the People’s Republic of China on August 26, 2019, and came into effect on December 1, 2019. Chapter III of the Drug Administration Act contains the interpretation and regulation of MAH. This marks that MAH has been officially introduced as a national system after four years of pilot work. We believe this will have a profound impact on the future pharmaceutical industry and drug management. Furthermore the promotion of this policy presents us the opportunity to use our professional pharmaceutical production facilities in Haikou, Hainan, China, to carry out the contract manufacture.
In general, demand for pharmaceutical products is still experiencing steady growth in China. We believe the ongoing generic drug consistency evaluations and reform of China’s drug production registration and review policies will have major effects on the future development of our industry and may change its business patterns. We will continue to actively adapt to the national policy guidance and further evaluate market conditions for our existing products, and competition in the market in order to optimize our development strategy.

Results of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020
Revenue
Revenue decreased by 39.8% to $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. This decrease was mainly due to the negative impact of the outbreak of COVID-19. Since the Chinese New Year holiday in early February, almost all Chinese companies, including us, have delayed the resumption of work. And our work resumption gradually returned to 90% by the end of March 2020.
Set forth below are our revenues by product category in millions (USD) for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||||||||||||||||
| Product Category | 2020 | 2019 | Net Change | % Change | ||||||||||||
| CNS Cerebral & Cardio Vascular | 0.25 | 0.46 | -0.21 | -46 | % | |||||||||||

| Digestive Diseases | 0.06 | 0.12 | -0.05 | -45 | % | |||||||||||
| Other | 0.25 | 0.50 | -0.25 | -49 | % | |||||||||||
The most significant revenue decrease in terms of dollar amount was in our “Anti-Viral/Infection & Respiratory” product category, which generated $1.20 million in sales revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to $1.85 million for the same period a year ago, which is a decrease of $0.66 million. This decrease was mainly due to the decrease in sales of Cefaclor, which was caused by market volatility.
Our “Other” product category sales decreased by $0.25 million to $0.25 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 from $0.50 million for the same period in 2019, which was mainly due to the decrease in sales of Vitamin B6 that was caused by market volatility.
Sales in the “CNS Cerebral & Cardio Vascular” product category decreased to $0.25 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to $0.46 million for the same period in 2019. Our “Digestive Diseases” product category generated $0.06 million and $0.12 million of sales in the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||||||||
| Product Category | 2020 | 2019 | ||||||
| CNS Cerebral & Cardio Vascular | 14 | % | 16 | % | ||||
| Anti-Viral/ Infection & Respiratory | 68 | % | 63 | % | ||||
| Digestive Diseases | 4 | % | 4 | % | ||||
| Other | 14 | % | 17 | % | ||||
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, revenue breakdown by product category remained similar to that of the same period in 2019. Sales of the “Anti-Viral/Infection & Respiratory” products category represented 68% and 63% of total sales in the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The “CNS Cerebral & Cardio Vascular” product category represented 14% and 16% of total revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The “Other” product category represented 14% and 17% of revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The “Digestive Diseases” product category represented both 4% of total revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
19
Cost of Revenue
For the three months ended March 31, 2020, our cost of revenue was $1.6 million, or 89% of total revenue, while cost of revenue was $2.3 million, or 78% of total revenue, for the same period in 2019.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $0.2 million, as compared to $0.7 million during the same period in 2019. Our gross profit margin in the three months ended March 31, 2020 was 11.0% as compared to 22.4% during the same period in 2019. The decrease in our gross profit margin was mainly due to the decrease in revenue and the increased ratio of fixed cost to revenue.
Selling Expenses
Our selling expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Selling expenses accounted for 18.5% of the total revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to 16.3% during the same period in 2019. As a result of the adjustment of many policies of healthcare reform, we had reduced number of personnel and expenses to efficiently support our sales and the collection of accounts receivable.
General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses were both $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. It accounted for 22.0% and 14.6% of our total revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Research and Development Expenses
Our research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $0.05 million, as compared to $0.07 million in the same period in 2019. Research and development expenses accounted for 2.8% and 2.4% of our total revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. These expenditures were mainly for the consistency evaluations of our existing products.
Bad Debt Expenses
Our bad debt expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $30,246, as compared to $13,312 for the same period in 2019. The increase in our bad debt expenses in this period was partially due to the slowed down collection of bad debt because of the national wide delayed work resumption caused by COVID-19.
We increased our customer credit or payment terms from 90 days to 180 days in the fourth quarter of 2018 in order to better reflect our actual operating environment. Due to the peculiar circumstances affecting the Chinese pharmaceutical market, deferred payments to pharmaceutical companies by state-owned hospitals and local medicine distributors are a normal phenomenon. Our customers are primarily pharmaceutical distributors that sell our products to mostly government-backed hospitals. Therefore, the aging of our receivables from our customers tends to be longer-term.
The amount of accounts receivable that was past due (or the amount of accounts receivable that were more than 180 days old) was $0.13 million and $0.15 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
20
The following table illustrates our accounts receivable aging distribution in terms of percentage of total accounts receivable as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019:
| March 31, | December 31, | |||||||
| 2020 | 2019 | |||||||
| 1 - 180 Days | 4.02 | % | 3.14 | % | ||||
| 180 - 360 Days | 0.60 | % | 0.69 | % | ||||
| 360 - 720 Days | 0.50 | % | 0.59 | % | ||||
| > 720 Days | 94.88 | % | 95.58 | % | ||||
| Total | 100.00 | % | 100.00 | % | ||||
In the fourth quarter of 2018, our bad debt allowance estimate has been updated to a policy which requires no allowance of accounts receivable recognized that are within 180 days old, 10% of accounts receivable that are between 180 days and 365 days old, 70% of accounts receivable that are between 365 days and 720 days old, and 100% of accounts receivable that are greater than 720 days old. Prior to that, our policy was no allowance of accounts receivable recognized that are within 90 days old, 10% of accounts receivable that are between 90 days and 365 days old, 70% of accounts receivable that are between 365 days and 720 days old, and 100% of accounts receivable that are greater than 720 days old.
We recognize bad debt expenses per actual write-offs as well as changes of allowance for doubtful accounts. To the extent that our current allowance for doubtful accounts is higher than that of the previous period, we recognize a bad debt expense for the difference during the current period, and, when the current allowance is lower than that of the previous period, we recognize a bad debt benefit for the difference. We also consider and assess the recoverability of individual account receivable balances. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $17.3 million and $17.6 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The changes in the allowances for doubtful accounts during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were as follows:
| For the Three Months Ended | ||||||||
| March 31, | ||||||||
| 2020 | 2019 | |||||||

Loss from Operations
Our operating loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $0.6 million, compared to an operating loss of $0.3 million during the same period in 2019.
Net Interest Expense
Net interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $0.06 million, as compared to $0.08 million for the same period in 2019.
Net Loss
Net Loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $0.7 million, as compared to a net loss of $0.4 million for the same period a year ago. The increase in net loss was mainly the result of decreased revenue, whereas the expenditures did not decrease in proportion to revenue, which was due to fixed costs.
Loss per basic and diluted common share were $0.02 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, and $0.01 for the same period in 2019.
The number of basic and diluted weighted-average outstanding shares used to calculate loss per share was 43,579,557 for both the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.
21
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal source of liquidity is cash generated from operations. Our cash and cash equivalents were $0.1 million, representing 0.7% of our total assets, as of March 31, 2020, as compared to $1.1 million, representing 4.8% of our total assets as of December 31, 2019. All of the $0.1 million of cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2020, are considered to be reinvested indefinitely in the Company’s Chinese subsidiary, Helpson and is not expected to be available for payment of dividends or for other payments to its parent company or to its shareholders. We entered into an eight-year construction loan facility on September 21, 2013. The total loan facility amount is RMB 80 million (approximately $11.7 million), which had been fully utilized through May 7, 2014. As of March 31, 2020, we have accumulatively repaid the principal of RMB 51 million (approximately $7.3 million) of the construction loans, per the loan repayment schedule. The total balance of the construction loan facility is $4.1 million as of March 31, 2020, which includes $1.98 million current portion, and $2.12 non-current portion. Cash flow generated from operating activities was used to fund our daily operating expenses as well as the repayment of our loan facility.
As discussed in Note 14, in April 2020, the Company obtained a line of credit from Postal Savings Bank of China for an aggregate amount of RMB 10,000,000 (approximately $1.4 million), of which RMB 5,000,000 (approximately $0.7 million) have been advanced. The loan bears interest at a rate of 4.25% per annum. The Company has an additional RMB 5,000,000 (approximately $0.7 million) available under the line, subject to a risk review and approval by a third party guarantee company.
Based on our current operating plan, management believes that cash provided by operations, in addition to the newly obtained line of credit in April 2020 will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs and our anticipated capital expenditures, including expenditures for new formula acquisitions for the next twelve months. However, if circumstances change and we do not follow our operating plan as expected, we may be required to seek additional capital and/or to reduce certain discretionary spending, which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve our business objectives. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may seek additional debt or equity financing as necessary for expansion purposes and when we believe the market conditions are the most advantageous to us. Although our Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer had advanced funds for working capital during 2019 and the first quarter of 2020, there can be no assurances that this will be the case in the future. There can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.
Operating Activities
Net cash consumed by operating activities was both $0.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
As of March 31, 2020, our net accounts receivable were $0.9 million, as compared to $0.6 million, as of December 31, 2019.
Total inventory was both $3.6 million, as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2019.
Investing Activities
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash used in investing activities was $0.35 million as compared to $0.07 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
22
Financing Activities
Cash flow used in financing activities was $0.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020, as compared to $0.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in cash flow used in financing activities was mainly due to the repayment of the RMB 15 million (approximately $2.3 million) line of loan facility in 2019.
According to relevant PRC laws, companies registered in the PRC, including our PRC subsidiary, Helpson, are required to allocate at least ten percent (10%) of their after-tax net income, as determined under the accounting standards and regulations in the PRC, to statutory surplus reserve accounts until the reserve account balances reach fifty percent (50%) of the companies’ registered capital prior to their remittance of funds out of the PRC. Allocations to these reserves and funds can only be used for specific purposes and are not transferrable to the parent company in the form of loans, advances or cash dividends. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Helpson’s net assets totaled $6,510,000 and $7,189,000, respectively. Due to the restriction on dividend distribution to overseas shareholders, the amount of Helpson’s net assets that was designated for general and statutory capital reserves, and thus could not be transferred to our parent company as cash dividends, was 50% of Helpson’s registered capital, which is $8,145,000 as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. There were no allocations to the statutory surplus reserve accounts during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
The Chinese government also imposes controls on the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of China. Our businesses and assets are primarily denominated in RMB. All foreign exchange transactions take place either through the People’s Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People’s Bank of China or other regulatory institutions requires the submission of a payment application form together with certain invoices and executed contracts. The currency exchange control procedures imposed by Chinese government authorities may restrict the ability of Helpson, our Chinese subsidiary, to transfer its net assets to our parent company through loans, advances or cash dividends.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2020, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our financial statements reflect the selection and application of accounting policies that require management to make significant estimates and judgments. The discussion of our critical accounting policies contained in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements, “Organization and Significant Accounting Policies”, is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act (a) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (b) is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives as described above. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2020 to satisfy the objectives for which they are intended. This was due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, with respect to our lack of accounting financial reporting personnel who were knowledgeable in U.S. GAAP, as disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on March 30, 2020. Notwithstanding the aforementioned material weakness, management has concluded that our consolidated financial statements included in this report are fairly stated in all material respects in accordance with U.S. GAAP for each period presented herein.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
