2. Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted from these statements pursuant to such rules and regulations and, accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes necessary for comprehensive consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

In the opinion of the management of the Company, all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the period presented herewith have been made. Results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for the entire fiscal year.

3. Summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of China BCT Pharmacy Group, Inc, and its subsidiaries; Ingenious, Forever Well, Liuzhou BCT, BCT Retail, BCT Jian Kang Chan Ye and Hefeng Pharmaceutical. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) is the exclusive reference of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernment entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of US federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative US GAAP for SEC registrants. The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with US GAAP, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. The accounts and estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivable, inventories, warrant liabilities and share-based compensation, the estimation on useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, and goodwill impairment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash, deposits in banks and other highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the cash and cash equivalents were mainly denominated in Renminbi (“RMB”) and United States dollars placed with banks in the PRC and Hong Kong. Those denominated in RMB are not freely convertible into foreign currencies, and the remittance of these funds out of the PRC is subject to exchange control restrictions imposed by the PRC government. The remaining insignificant balance of cash and cash equivalents were denominated in Hong Kong dollars.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents amounts set aside by the Company in accordance with the Company’s debt agreements with certain financial institutions. These cash amounts are designated for the purpose of paying down the principal amounts owed to the financial institutions, and these amounts are held at the same financial institutions with which the Company has debt agreements in the PRC. Due to the short-term nature of the Company’s debt obligations to these banks, the corresponding restricted cash balances have been classified as current assets in the consolidated financial statements.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s assessment of the collectability of accounts receivable. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the amount of the allowance. The Company considers the historical level of credit losses of all segments (pharmaceutical distribution, retail pharmacy and manufacturing) and applies percentages to aged receivable categories. The Company makes judgments about the creditworthiness of each customer based on ongoing credit evaluations, and monitors current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future. If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate resulting in their inability to make payments, a higher allowance may be required.

Based on the above assessment, during the reporting periods, management establishes the general provisioning policy to make allowance equivalent to 40% of gross amount of accounts receivable due between half and one year and 100% of gross amount of accounts receivable due over 1 year for all segments. Additional specific provision is made against accounts receivable whenever they are considered to be doubtful.

Bad debts are written off when identified. The Company extends unsecured credit to customers ranging from three to six months in the normal course of business. The Company does not accrue interest on accounts receivable.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined on a weighted average basis and includes all expenditures incurred in bringing the goods to a saleable condition. The Company’s reserve requirements generally fluctuate based on projected inventory demand, market conditions and product life cycles. In determining the adequate level of inventories to have on hand, management projects inventory demand and compares it to the current or committed inventory levels. Inventory quantities and expiration dates are regularly reviewed and provisions for excess or obsolete inventory are recorded based on the expiration dates and the Company’s forecast of demand and market conditions.

No provision for excess or obsolete inventory was deemed necessary as of ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to place the asset into service.

Depreciation is computed by using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives. The principal depreciation rates are as follows:

	Annual rate			Residual value
Buildings		2.54% - 9.84	%	Nil - 2		%
Plant and machinery		7% - 18.4	%	Nil - 10		%
Motor vehicles		6% -18.4	%		10	%
Furniture, fixtures and equipment		6% -18.4	%		10	%

Construction in progress mainly represents expenditures related to the renovations of retail stores and office expansion. All direct costs are capitalized as construction in progress. No depreciation is provided with respect to construction in progress.

Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Cost and related accumulated depreciation of property sold or otherwise disposed of are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in ~~non-~~operations.

Goodwill and intangible assets

The Company applies the provisions of FASB ASC 805, “Goodwill and Intangible Assets”. Under FASB ASC 805, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment at least annually.

Goodwill, with an ~~infinite~~indefinite useful life, is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment.

Pharmaceutical licenses, customer contracts, trademarks, technology know-how and patents are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed by using the straight-line method over their useful lives as follows:

Pharmaceutical licenses	10 years
Customer contracts, trademarks, technology know-how and patents	1-3 years

Land use rights

Land use rights are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed by using the straight-line method over the terms of the leases of 40 to 70 years obtained from the relevant PRC land authority.

Impairment of long-lived assets

Long-lived assets are tested for impairment in accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-45 “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” The Company periodically evaluates potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company recognizes impairment of long-lived assets in the event that the net book value of such assets exceeds the future undiscounted cash flows attributable to such assets. During the reporting periods, the Company has not identified any indicators that would require testing for impairment.

Revenue recognition

Revenue from the sales of the Company’s products in the pharmaceutical distribution and manufacturing segments is recognized upon customer acceptance. This occurs at the time of delivery to the customer, provided persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, such as a signed sales contract. The significant risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the customers at the time when the products are delivered and there is no significant post-delivery obligation to the Company. In addition, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. The Company does not provide customers with contractual rights of return for products. When there are significant post-delivery performance obligations, revenue is recognized only after such obligations are fulfilled. The Company evaluates the terms of each sales agreement with the customer in order to determine whether any significant post-delivery performance obligations exist. Currently, sales under both the pharmaceutical distribution and manufacturing segments do not include any terms which may impose any significant post-delivery performance obligations on the Company.

Revenue from sales of the Company’s products in the retail pharmacy segment is recognized upon customer acceptance. This occurs at the time when the product is purchased by the retail customers at the Company’s retail stores, and there is no significant post-delivery obligation, and collection is reasonably assured. The Company does not have a return policy allowing customers to return the products sold. When there are any significant post-delivery performance obligations, revenue is recognized only after such obligations are fulfilled. The Company evaluates the rules and regulations relating to the retail sales of drugs in the PRC in order to determine whether any significant post-delivery performance obligations exist. Currently, the rules and regulations relating to the retail sales of drugs in the PRC do not include any provisions which may impose significant post-delivery performance obligations on the Company.

Revenue from the sales of the Company’s product represents the invoiced value of goods, net of the value-added tax (VAT). All of the Company’s products sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 17 percent of the gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by the VAT paid by the Company on raw and other materials that are included in the cost of producing the Company’s finished products.

Advertising, research and development expenses

Advertising and research and development expenses are expensed as incurred.

Retirement benefit costs

Liuzhou BCT adopted a retirement plan to provide for eligible employees who were hired prior to April 23, 2002. These eligible employees are entitled to receive certain amounts upon termination or retirement from the Company. The amounts are based on the employee’s years of service in Liuzhou BCT up to April 23, 2002. The obligation for retirement benefit costs is recorded at the present value of the cost that is expected to settle the obligation. Employees hired after April 23, 2002 are not entitled to participate in this retirement plan.

Shipping and handling costs

Shipping and handling costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling expenses.

Vendor allowances

The Company receives allowances from certain vendors. These allowances are received for a variety of buying activities, such as volume purchase allowance associated with vendor programs. Consideration received from a vendor is a reduction in the cost of the inventory and is recognized as a reduction in the cost of sales. The Company also receives promotional allowance funds for specific vendor-sponsored programs per the applicable agreements. These potential allowance funds are recognized as a reduction in the cost of sales as the program occurs.

Store opening costs

Costs incurred with retail store start-up costs, such as travel for recruitments, training and setup of new store openings are expensed as incurred.

Dividends

Dividends are recorded in the Company’s financial statements in the period when they are declared.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Income taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes pursuant to FASB ASC 740 "Income Taxes”. Under the asset and liability method of FASB ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and loss carry forwards and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Comprehensive income

The Company has adopted FASB ASC 220, “Comprehensive Income”, which establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income (loss), its components and accumulated balances. Components of comprehensive income (loss) include net income and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Concentrations of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and amounts due from related companies. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, substantially all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were held by major financial institutions located in the PRC, which management believes are of high credit standing. With respect to accounts receivable, the Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition. The Company generally does not require collateral for accounts receivable and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for accounts receivable.

During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and 2011, no single customer accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s consolidated sales and no single customer constituted 10% or more of the Company’s accounts receivable ~~as of June 30, 2012 and December 30, 2011~~.

Foreign currency translation

The functional currency of the Company is RMB which is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. The Company maintains its financial records in the functional currency. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods.

Assets and liabilities of the Company’s operations are translated into the reporting currency, United States dollars, at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet dates. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates in effect during the reporting periods. The resulting translation adjustment is reflected as accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders’ equity in the statement of stockholders’ equity.

Basic and diluted earnings per share

The Company reports basic earnings per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”. Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods presented. The weighted average number of shares of the Company represents the common stock outstanding during the reporting periods. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods plus the effect of any dilutive securities outstanding during the periods.

Fair value of financial instruments

FASB ASC 820 ~~“Fair Value and Derivatives”~~ requires the disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments including those financial instruments for which the fair value option was not elected. The carrying amounts of the financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair values due to short maturities or the applicable interest rates approximate the current market rates.

4. Income taxes

United States

The Company is subject to the United States of America tax law at tax rates up to 3835%. No provision for the US federal income taxes has been made as the Company had no taxable income under this jurisdiction for the reporting periods.

BVI

Ingenious was incorporated in the BVI and, under the current laws of the BVI, is not subject to income taxes.

Hong Kong

Forever Well is subject to the Hong Kong Profits tax at a tax rate of 16.5%. No provision for the Hong Kong Profits tax has been made as the Company had no taxable income under this jurisdiction since its incorporation.

PRC

Corporate income tax (“CIT”) to Liuzhou BCT, BCT Retail, BCT Jian Kang Chan Ye and Hefeng Pharmaceutical iswas charged at a rate of 25%.

5. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share has been computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Potential dilutive shares are excluded from the computation of earnings per share as average market price of the Company’s common stock did not exceed the weighted average exercise price of such options, warrants, and preferred shares, and to have included them would have been anti-dilutive. Accordingly, the basic and diluted earnings per share are the same.

As of December 30, 2009, the Company completed a private placement of 2,489,370 shares of common stock and five-year warrants to purchase up to 1,244,368 shares of common stock (“First Batch Warrants”) at an exercise price of $3.81 per share for gross proceeds of $6,322,952 which includes related issuance expenses of $1,016,290. In accordance with FASB ASC 815 ~~“Derivatives and Hedging”~~, these warrants are not considered indexed to the Company’s own stock and should be classified as financial derivative liabilities at fair value for each reporting period. However, the Company considered the amount to be immaterial to the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009 as the fair value of First Batch Warrants was $1,294,142 as of December 31, 2009, thus, the net proceeds were allocated to First Batch Warrants resulting in the entire amount recorded as equity.

Upon the completion of a private placement as of February 1, 2010, of which five-year warrants to purchase up to 514,933 shares of common stock (“Second Batch Warrants”) were issued to investors and should be classified as financial derivative liabilities at fair value for each reporting period in accordance with FASB ASC 815, the Company determined that the aggregate fair value of warrants issued as of February 1, 2010 was material to the financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Accordingly, a reallocation was made for the fair value of First Batch Warrants as of December 31, 2009 amounting to $1,294,142 from the Company’s equity to warrant liabilities as of February 1, 2010. For the Second Batch Warrants, part of the net proceeds amounting to $561,277, representing the fair value as of February 1, 2010, was allocated to warrant liabilities at initial recognition.

In addition to the existing deposits of RMB 45,000,000 ($7,114,950) paid in 2011 and 2010, the Company made an additional ~~deposits~~deposit ~~totaling~~of RMB 1,000,000 ($158,110) for the security of the new distribution agreement entered in 2012.

16.	Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock

On January 18, 2011, the Company entered into a Series A Convertible Preferred Shares Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Milestone Longcheng Limited (“Milestone”) pursuant to which Milestone at February 28, 2011 purchased 9,375,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Shares, par value $.001 per share (the “Preferred Shares”), for an aggregate purchase price of $30,000,000. The Preferred Shares carry a dividend of 5% and are convertible initially into an equal number of shares of our Common Stock at an initial conversion price of $3.20 per share.

Upon the consummation of a qualified public offering (as defined in the Purchase Agreement) in which the sale price of the Preferred Shares exceeds the product of 2.0 multiplied by the initial conversion price (as adjusted from time to time as provided in the Purchase Agreement), without the payment of additional consideration thereof, all the Preferred Shares shall be automatically converted into Conversion Shares at the then applicable Conversion Rate.

The holders of the Preferred shares may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the outstanding Preferred Shares upon the occurrence of certain events, including: (a) any change of control of the Company; (b) any substantial asset sale; (c) any consolidation or merger or acquisition or sale of voting securities of the Company resulting in the holders of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such transaction beneficially owning or controlling less than a majority of the voting securities of the continuing or surviving entity immediately following such transaction; (d) any tender offer, exchange offer or repurchase offer for any common shares; (e) cessation of listing of the common shares (or equity securities of an entity that holds all or substantially all the share capital of the Company) on an internationally recognized exchange; (f) it has been three years since the issue date; (g) cessation of provision of services by Mr. Huitian Tang to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries by reason of resignation, discharge, death, disability, retirement or otherwise.

The redemption price to be paid by the Company for such required redemptions shall be equal to an amount necessary to provide an annual return of fifteen percent (15%) compounded annually on the stated value of the Preferred Shares for the period commencing on February 28, 2011 and ending on the applicable redemption date. The redemption price shall take into account and be credited with any dividends paid during such period.

The conversion price shall be subject to adjustment as follows if any of the events listed below occur prior to the conversion of any Preferred Shares being converted:

(a) In the event the Company pays a dividend or makes a distribution on its common shares in common shares, subdivides or reclassifies its outstanding common shares into a greater number of shares, or consolidates or reclassifies its outstanding common shares into a smaller number of shares, the conversion price in effect immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted so that the holders of the Preferred Shares thereafter converted shall be entitled to receive the number of common shares of the Company which they would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the occurrence of such event had the Preferred Shares been converted immediately prior to the occurrence of such event.

(b)

In the event the Company issues common shares, issues rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase common shares, or issues or sells other rights for common shares or securities whether or not convertible or exchangeable into common shares for a consideration per share less than the then effective conversion price on the date the Company issues or sells such securities, then in each such case the conversion price in effect immediately prior to the issuance of such securities shall be reduced, concurrently with the issue of such securities, to the price appropriately readjusted.

(c)

In the event the Company’s net income after tax under U.S. GAAP, but excluding the effects of extraordinary gains, and non-cash expenses relating to options and warrants, and qualified public offering related expenses as and when expensed in the Company’s audited annual financial statements for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2011, and prepared on a pro forma basis, is less than US$31,200,000, the conversion price shall be adjusted, effective on the date of the issuance of the 2011 annual audited financial statements.

(d)

In the event the Company distributes to all holders of its common shares any share capital of the Company (other than common shares) or evidences of indebtedness or cash or other assets (excluding regular cash dividends or distributions paid from retained earnings of the Company and dividends or distributions referred to in (a) above) or rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those referred to in (b) above) then, in each such case, the conversion price shall be adjusted.

(be) In the event any securities of the Company ~~issues~~(other ~~common~~than ~~shares~~Preferred Shares) , ~~issues~~are ~~rights~~amended or otherwise modified by operation of their terms or otherwise in any manner whatsoever that results in the reduction of the exercise, ~~options~~conversion or ~~warrants~~exchange toprice ~~subscribe~~of such securities payable upon the exercise for, or ~~purchase~~conversion or exchange into, common shares, or ~~issues~~other securities exercisable for, or ~~sells~~convertible ~~other~~or ~~rights~~exchangeable ~~for~~into, common shares and/or such securities ~~whether~~becoming orexercisable ~~not~~for, or convertible or exchangeable into ~~common~~more shares ~~for~~or a ~~consideration~~greater ~~per~~amount ~~share~~of ~~less~~such ~~than~~securities ~~the~~which ~~then~~are, ~~effective~~in ~~conversion~~turn ~~price~~exercisable onfor, ~~the~~or ~~date~~convertible ~~the~~or ~~Company~~exchangeable ~~issues~~into, common shares, or ~~sells~~more ~~such~~common ~~securities~~shares, then insuch ~~each~~amendment ~~such~~or ~~case~~modification shall be treated as if the ~~conversion~~securities ~~price~~which inhave ~~effect~~been ~~immediately~~amended ~~prior~~or tomodified ~~the~~have ~~issuance~~been ofterminated ~~such~~and new securities ~~shall~~have bebeen ~~reduced,~~issued ~~concurrently~~ with the ~~issue~~amended ofor ~~such~~modified ~~securities,~~terms tofor ~~the~~purposes ~~price~~of ~~appropriately~~Section ~~readjusted~~(b) above.

(c) In the event the Company’s net income after tax under U.S. GAAP, but excluding the effects of extraordinary gains, and non-cash expenses relating to options and warrants, and qualified public offering related expenses as and when expensed in the Company’s audited annual financial statements for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2011, and prepared on a pro forma basis, is less than US$31,200,000, the conversion price shall be adjusted, effective on the date of the issuance of the 2011 annual audited financial statements

(d) In the event the Company distributes to all holders of its common shares any share capital of the Company (other than common shares) or evidences of indebtedness or cash or other assets (excluding regular cash dividends or distributions paid from retained earnings of the Company and dividends or distributions referred to in (a) above) or rights, options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its securities (excluding those referred to in (b) above) then, in each such case, the conversion price shall be adjusted

(e) In the event any securities of the Company (other than Preferred Shares) , are amended or otherwise modified by operation of their terms or otherwise in any manner whatsoever that results in the reduction of the exercise, conversion or exchange price of such securities payable upon the exercise for, or conversion or exchange into, common shares or other securities exercisable for, or convertible or exchangeable into, common shares and/or such securities becoming exercisable for, or convertible or exchangeable into more shares or a greater amount of such securities which are, in turn exercisable for, or convertible or exchangeable into, common shares, or more common shares, then such amendment or modification shall be treated as if the securities which have been amended or modified have been terminated and new securities have been issued with the amended or modified terms for purposes of Section (b) above

We classify the Preferred Shares as temporary equity in accordance with ASR 268 (Securities and Exchange Commission, Financial Reporting Codification, Section No. 211, Redeemable Preferred Stocks) because the Preferred Shares contain a conditional obligation that may require us, at the option of the holders, to redeem some or all of these shares by transferring our assets upon the occurrence of certain events that are not solely within the control of the Company.

The initial fair value of the Preferred Shares was $29,495,866 representing the transaction price of $30,000,000, in accordance with the FASB ASC 820 ~~“Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure”~~-10-30-3, less related issue costs of $504,134.

We evaluated the economic characteristics and risks of the conversion feature as an embedded derivative and determined such economic characteristics and risks are clearly and closely related to the host contract. Therefore, the conversion feature does not meet the requirements of FASB ASC 815-15-25-1.a. ~~“Derivatives and Hedging”~~ for bifurcation and separate fair value accounting.

22The Company has elected to adjust the carrying amount of the Preferred Shares at each reporting date by applying periodic accretions, using the interest method, so that the carrying amount will be equal to the possible redemption amount at the earliest determinable redemption date of February 28, 2014. As of September 30, 2012, such accretion amount was $3,782,283 resulting in a carrying amount for the Preferred Shares of $35,668,186 at that date after the payment of dividend of $1,500,000.

17. Statutory and other reserves

Under PRC regulations, Liuzhou BCT, BCT Retail, BCT Jian Kang Chan Ye and Hefeng Pharmaceutical may pay dividends only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC GAAP. In addition, these companies are required to set aside at least 10% of their after-tax net profits each year, if any, to fund the statutory reserves until the balance of the reserves reaches 50% of their registered capital. The statutory reserves can be used to make up cumulative prior year losses and are not distributable in the form of cash dividends.

18. Stock option arrangements

On June 27, 2010, we adopted the China BCT Pharmacy Group, Inc. 2010 Omnibus Securities and ~~Inventive~~Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) for the benefit of our employees, nonemployee directors and consultants and the employees, nonemployee directors and consultants of its affiliates, for purposes of assisting us to attract, retain and provide incentives to key management employees and nonemployee directors, and consultants of ours and our affiliates, and to align the interests of such individuals with those of our stockholders.

There were no options granted with exercise prices below the market value of the stock at the grant date. All outstanding options at September 30, 2012 had no intrinsic value because the Company’s stock price was either equal or lower than all option exercise prices. Fair values were estimated using the Binominal tree option-pricing model. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, there was no option granted, exercised or forfeited. The weighted average exercise price of the options is $2.48 as of September 30, 2012. A summary of the Company’s stock options issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2012, is presented below:

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

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q and other reports filed by the Company from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively the “Filings”) contain or may contain forward-looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information currently available to, the Company’s management as well as estimates and assumptions made by Company’s management. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are only predictions and speak only as of the date hereof. When used in the filings, the words “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “expect”, “future”, “intend”, “plan”, or the negative of these terms and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or the Company’s management identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect the current view of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors, including the risks contained in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal ~~year~~years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, relating to the Company’s industry, the Company’s operations and results of operations, and any businesses that the Company may acquire. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended, or planned.

Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, the Company does not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our financial statements would be affected to the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.

~~Overview~~26

Business Review

We are engaged in pharmaceutical distribution, retail pharmacy and manufacture of pharmaceuticals through our ~~two~~three ~~wholly-owned~~ subsidiaries Liuzhou BCT, ~~and Hefeng Pharmaceutical, and~~ BCT Retail, aand ~~retail~~Hefeng ~~company~~Pharmaceutical ~~that we control through a series of contractual agreements,~~ each of which is located in Guangxi Province, China.

We have integrated operations in the following three business segments.

Pharmaceutical ~~distribution~~Distribution ~~segment~~Segment

We provide a comprehensive offering of pharmaceutical and healthcare products, including branded and generic prescription medicines, over-the counter medicines, Western and Chinese medicines, as well as personal care products and medical supplies, Chinese herbs, and medical instruments from manufacturers and suppliers through distribution to our customers, including hospitals, retail drug stores, other pharmaceutical wholesalers, clinics, medical centers, and individuals located mainly in Guangxi Province ~~(other~~except ~~than~~for ~~the~~ other pharmaceutical wholesalers). Over 8,000 products are distributed in compliance with China’s regulations over the pharmaceutical industry. For the ~~six~~three months and nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012, our pharmaceutical distribution segment accounted for approximately 7369.7% and 72.1%, respectively, of our total revenue after elimination of inter-segment sales. Revenue derived from Chinese herbal ~~medicines~~medicine, family planning products, medical instruments, injection drugs and other packaged medicine drugs constituted 2.02%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 15.45% and 82.30% of our pharmaceutical distribution segment’s total revenue for the ~~six~~ nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012, respectively.

The terms of our distribution agreements vary between suppliers and vary in terms of payment period, arrangement of delivery, pricing and quality requirements. The general payment period terms vary from advance deposit, to cash on delivery, and to payment up to 90 days from the date of delivery, and the payment can be settled by means of bank collection, remittance, bills payable, and postal check.

Retail Pharmacy Segment

BCT Retail operates a large regional retail pharmacy network of stores in Guangxi province, consisting of 195 directly owned retail stores under the registered name “Baicaotang 百草堂.” Our retail stores provide high-quality, convenient and professional pharmaceutical services, and supply a wide variety of medicines such as prescription medicines, over-the-counter medicines, Chinese herbal medicine, roughly processed Chinese herbal medicine, family planning products, and other pharmaceutical and healthcare products. Revenue from the retail pharmacy segment is generated by cash sales or medi-card reimbursement from the national insurance plan. There is no difference in the sales price of products in medi-care qualified stores between cash and medi-card payment. No co-payment is collected with respect to payments by medi-card. For the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012, our retail pharmacy segment accounted for approximately 24.4% and 22.0%, respectively, of our total revenue after elimination of inter-segment sales.

The following table sets forth the accounts receivable from the National Program for our retail pharmacy segment as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

The following table sets forth the accounts receivable from the National Program for our retail pharmacy segment as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

	As of June 30,		As of December 31,

National Program	$	840	$	609

Our billing system does not currently have the capacity to generate an aging schedule for all of our receivables. Nevertheless, we are able to create aging schedules by reference to data from our accounting system. The payment from the National Program is made on a lump sum basis after the invoices are approved. Our system is linked with the one at National Program. At the end of each month, we reconcile our records with those of the National Program and invoice for reimbursement. Once amounts are confirmed by the National Program, such amounts due for the current month will be available for reimbursement. No allowance for bad debts has been made as medi-card reimbursement under the national insurance program is reasonably assured.

Manufacturing segment

Located in Donglan District, Guangxi province and built on approximately 40,000 square meters of land which we own the use rights, Hefeng Pharmaceutical has four product processing units: (1) a Chinese herbal medicine abstraction unit for raw material and medicine paste with 670 tons of annual abstraction capacity; (2) a granular formulation unit with an annual production capacity of 0.25 billion packages; (3) a pill formulation unit with annual production capacity of 0.36 billion pills, and (4) a liquid formulation unit with an annual production capacity of 0.1 billion injections. We manufacture and sell both generic and clinic drugs all over the China. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, our manufacturing segment accounted for approximately 5.8% of our total revenue after elimination of the inter-segment sales.

Growth Strategy

We expect to focus on obtaining more contracts for the distribution side of our business. As the centralized bidding for the 2011 contract closed in the second quarter of 2011, so far, to our best knowledge, we have won 2,000-3,000 more product distribution rights with regard to our hospital and clinic clients, which represents approximately a 50% increase compared to our product distribution rights in 2010, although bids for 2012 have not yet been awarded. In addition, in 2011, we were able to increase the number of bids awarded to us for counties and cities under the New Rural Cooperate Medicare bidding process from the 6 counties and cities that were awarded to us in the previous bidding to 22 counties, cities and regions after being awarded an additional 16 territories in 2011. New Rural Cooperate Medicare bids for 2012 have not yet been awarded.

Notably, our wholesale business has been negatively affected by a continuing trend of declining prices from hospital bidding. The Chinese government would like to benefit its citizens with a lower cost of Medicare by regulating State-run hospitals’ profit on selling drugs. The policy requires hospitals to take zero profits and allows only a 15% increase of bidding prices. In addition, the Chinese National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) regulates the bidding price down for every year’s bidding by having hospitals choose the lowest price without considering of the production cost.

This has had the effect of reducing the profit of all parties along the drug supply chain. In the past, our wholesale distribution segment saw a higher profit margin than our competitors, because we had a large percentage of sales which carried higher ~~margin~~margins, ~~among~~with ~~all~~the ~~sales~~supply chain from our wholesale segment’s bottom-price ~~agency~~agent relationship with ~~manufactures~~manufacturers ~~and~~to the end user direct-selling to hospitals. Our overall profit margin of the wholesale segment has declined as a result of the lower bidding price for each bidding year and the shrinking of the higher margin business ~~among~~in ~~all~~each of the steps through the entire wholesale businesses chain. ~~The~~Due to the lowered profit margin, ~~could~~all ~~not~~parties ~~support~~in ~~the~~this ~~cost~~supply chain have to either lower their profit margin on this kind of business or simply withdraw from this kind of business. Therefore, the percentage of this higher margin business among all wholesale business declined dramatically.

As China Medicare System Reform has been developing, the pharmaceutical industry has been evolving along the way. We will continue to address the challenges from this reform as they are presented.

One way that we have begun to address these issues is to focus on rapidly growing our retail pharmacy networks by refining and expanding our existing retail networks in selected markets. We have been consolidating our existing pharmacy stores into larger stores with built-in traditional Chinese medicine, or TCM, clinics; we are targeting to have about 4 to 5 such stores built for each larger city and at least one such store built for each county in Guangxi. We have been exploring new and more profitable business models in the retail segment to boost same store sales and increase gross margin as we have experienced increasingly intensified competition from small neighborhood drug stores. In addition, we have also come to recognize limitations of resources (e.g. lack of registered pharmacists, medi-care qualification, quality staff and administrative efforts), which limits our ability to increase the number of stores. We re-decorated and opened our first 3,000 square feet pharmacy store with built-in TCM clinics in December 2011 where we provide around 5,400 types of products (including drugs, medical instruments, foods, convenience goods and personal care products, etc). We built 3 consultation rooms for TCM doctors to provide free consultations to increase in-store TCM sales and attract more in-store traffic. As of June 30, 2012, there are 5 stores with built-in TCM clinics opened and we expect to open another 10 - 15 such stores in the 3rd and 4th quarter of 2012. In addition, we have been undergoing a process of applying for a license to supply a chain of National Medicine and Leisure House facilities; these facilities are in size between community hospitals and clinics. With that license, we will be able to provide a wide range of TCM medical services at such locations (but not including injections).

We intend to expend a total of RMB 60 million, or approximately $9.5 million for the re-decorating and re-opening of 15 to 20 larger TCM clinic built-in chain stores by the end of 2012. We will put priority focus on quality rather than quantity of the stores that we are going to operate. In addition, we may invest in a location for a logistics center, but wait to build the center until our group revenue reaches $500 million to achieve economy of scale. We intend to finance the above capital investments either from our own sources of funds or through increased debt facilities with banks.

As of September 30, 2012, there are 8 stores with built-in TCM clinics opened and we expect to open another 2-5 such stores in the 4th quarter of 2012. Among the 8 stores opened, one mega store has been built with floorage of 18,000 square feet. On the ground floor we offer personal care products, convenience good, food and drinks besides drugs, and on ~~Our~~the ~~Operating~~second ~~Results~~floor we have included a TCM clinic with 8 consultation rooms and a health and leisure treatment facility with more than 30 guests rooms .

We intend to expend a total of RMB 15 million, or approximately $2.4 million for the re-decorating and re-opening of 2-5 larger TCM clinic built-in chain stores by the end of 2012. We will put priority focus on quality rather than quantity of the stores that we are going to operate. In addition, we may invest in a location for a logistics center, but wait to build the center until our group revenue reaches $500 million to achieve economy of scale. We intend to finance the above capital investments either from our own sources of funds or through increased debt facilities with banks. We estimate that the cost for the logistics center will be approximately $22 million.

Affect of Price Controls on Our Operating Results

A number of our pharmaceutical products, primarily those included in the national and provincial medical insurance catalogs, are subject to price controls in the form of fixed retail prices or retail price ceiling controls administered by the Price Control Office under the National Development and Reform Commission, or the NDRC, and provincial price control authorities. Approximately 60% to 70% of our total retail sales are subject to these price controls. The retail prices of these products are also subject to periodic downward adjustments as the PRC governmental authorities seek to make pharmaceutical products more affordable to the general public. Any future price controls or government mandated price reductions may cause potential variability of our earnings and cash flows.

The table below sets forth a breakdown of our external segment revenue after elimination of inter-segment sales, and each segment revenue item as a percentage of our total revenue, as well as our inter-segment sales for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, we had approximately $10.4 million of inter-segment revenue, which included approximately $10.0 million in sales from our pharmaceutical distribution segment to our retail pharmacy segment, and approximately $0.4 million in sales from our manufacturing segment to our pharmaceutical distribution segment. External segment revenue refers to segment revenue after inter-segment elimination.

Sales Revenue

During the three months ended June 30, 2012, we had sales revenue of $61.1 million, as compared to sales revenue of $65.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $4.0 million or approximately 6.1%. This decrease was attributable to the decrease in sales revenue of $5.0 million from our pharmaceutical distribution segment as explained below and offset partly by the slight increase in retail pharmacy and manufacturing segment during the period.

Pharmaceutical distribution segment

We derive the majority of our revenue from our pharmaceutical distribution segment. We distribute a comprehensive offering of pharmaceutical and health care products, including branded and generic prescription medicines, over-the-counter medicines, Western and TCM medicines, as well as personal care products and medical supplies.

Three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to three months ended September 30, 2011

~~Revenue from our pharmaceutical distribution segment decreased by 10.3% from $48.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $43.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012.~~ The ~~decrease~~following intable ~~revenue~~sets offorth ~~$5.0 million was~~ the ~~result~~key ofcomponents ~~the decrease in price~~ of ~~$4 million and the decrease in volume by $1.0 million.

The decrease was offset partly by the increase of $6.2 million in sales to other to other distributors.~~

The reduction in sales to clinics and health care centers was mainly attributed to the substantial decrease in price of drugs under the prescribed list of Basic Drugs Catalogue. Upon the current township’s distribution plan from Basic Drugs Catalogue Plan, we now have distribution rights to 22 townships compared to the 6 municipalities we previously had. Despite the increase in the number of townships granted, the number of distributors invited also increased. We are still in the stage of developing these new markets and this has to this time resulted in reduction in sales derived from this group in light of the reduction in the price of drugs under the prescribed list of Basic Drugs Catalogue that we sell to those health care centers.

The increase in the sales to distributors was derived from certain new distributors that we have started to work with during the period. The slight decrease in sales to hospitals was the result of change in product mix and reduction in selling price of drugs.

Retail pharmacy segment

Revenue from our retail pharmacy segment increased by 5.3% from $13.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $13.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in revenue resulted from the increase in sales volume of $0.7 million. The increase in sales was mainly attributed to the increase in sales from certain stores which have been opened since the third quarter of 2011 and are now in a stage of growth. Further, our 5 TCM stores contributed to the increase in sales. This increase offset the reduction in sales from certain old stores which are in saturated markets. The increase is also impacted by the fact that there has been a net increase of 15 stores opened since the third quarter of 2011.

Manufacturing segment

Revenue from our manufacturing segment increased by 5.7% from $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was attributed solely to the volume of sales as there were no changes in prices between the periods. The increase in sales was attributed to increased penetration of sales to distributors as a result of the efforts of our sales representatives.

The gross profit margin for our pharmaceutical distribution segment was approximately 13.5% and 19.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The cost of sales includes only the cost of merchandise. Our substantial share of pharmaceutical distribution segments is derived from the hospital customers and the price is governed by the PRC Government-mandated collective tender process. After the tender, there is a general reduction in price over the drugs and the margin between our cost of purchasing pharmaceutical products from our suppliers and our prices of pharmaceutical products sold to our hospitals did decrease concurrently and resulted in margin reduction. Further, an increase in the portion of revenue derived from distributors also pulled down the ratio as the margin of distributors is the lowest among all of our types of customers.

~~Retail~~Revenue ~~pharmacy~~from our pharmaceutical distribution segment decreased by $11.6 million or 23.1% from $50.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $38.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease was the result of the decrease in sales volume by $8.2 million and a reduction of approximately $3.4 million. The decrease in sales revenue from our pharmaceutical distribution segment was attributed primarily to the effect of the reduction of $10.7 million in sales to hospitals. There was additional decrease by both the reduction of $7.6 million to other drug stores and the reduction of $2.4 million to clinics and health care centers. The decrease was offset partly by the increase of $9.0 million in sales to distributors and others.

~~Manufacturing~~As ~~segment~~for the drug stores those that we target are mainly individual stores. A number of individual stores have joined some large chain stores and have operated as a group so they now order the drugs from the prescribed distributor of the chain stores that they joined. This has resulted in the reduction in the number of those customers we supply and resulted in decrease in sales.

The gross profit margin for our manufacturing segment was approximately 53.5% and 64.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The reduction in profit margin is attributed to the increase in relative mix of sales of lower profit margin products.

Selling, and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses totaled $4.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to $4.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, representing an increase of $0.3 million or approximately 6.7%. The increase was attributed mainly to the increase in selling expenses by $0.4 million.

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses increased by 22.2% from $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to the increase in our marketing staff’s wages and salaries, payment for staff welfare in connection with our increased sales and marketing activities. The percentage of our selling expenses to our total revenue was increased from 2.7% for three months ended June 30, 2011 to 3.6% for three months ended June 30, 2012.

Pharmaceutical distribution segment

The selling expenses of our pharmaceutical distribution segment increased by 28.6% from $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to the acquisition of the three distribution chains in June 2011 in which only one month’s selling expenses of the acquired chains was accounted for in the three months ended 2011. The difference of period accounting resulted in an additional $0.1 million increase. Further, the increase was attributed to the increase in transportation charges upon the increase in sales quantity.

~~Retail~~The ~~pharmacy~~reduction ~~segment~~in sales to clinics and health care centers was mainly attributed to the substantial decrease in prices of drugs under the prescribed list of Basic Drugs Catalogue. Upon the current township’s distribution plan from Basic Drugs Catalogue Plan, we now have distribution rights to 22 townships compared to the 6 municipalities we previously had. Despite the increase in the number of townships granted, the number of distributors invited also increased. We are still in the stage of developing these new markets and to the present time, this effort resulted in reduction in sales derived from this group in light of the reduction in the price of drugs under the prescribed list of Basic Drugs Catalogue that we sell to those health care centers

There was a net reduction in sales by $0.6 million when compared to the new stores that we currently operate. As the new stores have only been launched in the market recently, the initial sales contribution would not ~~recurrent~~be comparable to what the mature stores did. Further some sales derived from particular stores were affected by renovations that we have undertaken including those that have to upgrade in ~~nature~~order to provide medical consultation services. The decrease in sales was offset partly by the growth of sales by particular stores that have been opened since 2010 in which we are in the growth stage. Further, we have upgraded and restructured part of our retail stores and offer free Chinese medical counseling services, which has also driven the increase in sales. The revenue contributed by new stores for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $1.5 million as compared to $6.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 representing a decrease of $5 million. This difference is the result of the fact that there were 23 stores opened after September 2011 while there were 62 stores opened after September 2010.

The following table sets forth revenue from our retail pharmacy segment by existing stores and new stores opened during each period.

(2) Represents the 23 stores opened after September 30, 2011 and no stores were opened during the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Manufacturing Segment

Revenue from our manufacturing segment decreased by 8.3% from $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $3.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease was attributed to the volume of sales; there were no significant changes in prices between the periods. The decrease in sales is partly attributed to the tighter control over the use of certain drugs by the clinics. Further, one of our drugs that we did launch last year is subject to restriction on the quantity of production by the drug authority and the quota for production that we received during the period was less than for the previous period. These factors contributed to the slight reduction in the sales.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales was $44.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $51.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, representing a decrease of $6.5 million. Our cost of sales consists of the cost of merchandise, raw materials and other costs. Other costs include direct labor, depreciation and other costs. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in the costs of purchasing merchandise for the decrease in our revenue.

Gross Profits

Gross profit was $10.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to $16.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, representing a decrease of $5.6 million or approximately 34.4%. Our gross profit margin was 19.4% and 24.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The decrease in gross profit margin was mainly attributed to the reduction in the gross profit margin derived from the pharmaceutical distribution segment. For hospital customers, we establish a pricing range aligned with our suppliers through the PRC government-mandated collective tender process while the prices of drugs sold to health care community centers are governed by the prescribed list within Basic Drug Catalogue. As for other pharmaceutical product distributors, we arrange three party negotiations with distributors and suppliers. Under the current tender, the prices under the bids do drop and we cannot maintain the margin in the same degree between our cost of purchasing pharmaceutical products from our suppliers and our prices of pharmaceutical products sold to our hospital and health care centers customers. This resulted in the reduction in overall gross margin.

Pharmaceutical Distribution Segment

The gross profit margin for our pharmaceutical distribution segment was approximately 9.9% and 19.0 % for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The cost of sales includes only the cost of merchandise. In light of the increase of the portion of revenue derived from distributors, it did impact the margin significantly as the margin from the sales to distributors is the lowest among all our customers and now accounts for 31.2% of total sales. In addition, a substantial share of pharmaceutical distribution segment is derived from the hospital customers where price is governed by the PRC Government-mandated collective tender process. After the tender, there is a general reduction in price over the drugs and the margin between our cost of purchasing pharmaceutical products from our suppliers and our prices of pharmaceutical products sold to our hospital customers decreased accordingly and resulted in margin reduction. Further, the reduction of sales of generic drugs which are of higher profit margin also contributed to the decrease.

Retail Pharmacy Segment

The gross profit margin for our retail pharmacy segment was approximately 38.6% and 32.8% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The cost of sales includes only the cost of merchandise, and we adjust the retail price in accordance with the cost of merchandise. The increase in gross profit margin is attributable to the sales of higher profit margin products inclusive of Chinese herbs, especially upon the introduction of free Chinese medical counseling service.

Manufacturing Segment

The gross profit margin for our manufacturing segment was approximately 52.5% and 64.2% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The cost of sales consists of cost of merchandise and raw materials and other costs. Other costs include direct labor, depreciation and other costs. The reduction in gross profit margin is attributed to the increase in relative mix of sales of lower profit margin products.

Operating Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses totaled $4.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $3.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011, representing an increase of $1.1 million or approximately 28.9%. The increase was attributed mainly to the respective increase in selling expenses by $0.7 and the administrative expenses by $0.4 million.

Administrative Expenses

Administrative expenses ~~decreased~~increased by 323.78% from $2.71 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011 to $2.6 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012. The increase in administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily due to the increase of the share-based compensation of $0.2 million and legal fee of $0.2 million in connection with listing requirements services. Further there was an increase in staff cost of $0.2 million and rental charges by $0.2 million. The increase was offset by a decrease in repair and maintenance of $0.1 million and post-acquisition services fee of $0.2 million. The increase in share-based compensation was attributed to stock options granted in the fourth quarter of 2011. The percentage of our administrative expenses to our total revenue increased from 43.12% in 2011 to 4.36% in 2012.

Pharmaceutical ~~distribution~~Distribution ~~segment~~Segment

The administrative expenses of our retail ~~pharmacy~~pharmaceutical distribution segment increased by 14$0.31 million or 12.5% from $0.78 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011 to $0.89 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012. The increase was primarily attributed to an aggregate increase in rental expenditures by $0.042 million, staff and benefit costs by $0.2 million,. The increase was offset by the reduction in the post-acquisition services fees of $0.2 million and repair cost of $0.1 million, respectively. The increase in rental was due to the ~~fact~~increase ~~that~~ in the ~~number~~lease of certain stores ~~held~~upon ~~has~~entering ~~increased~~new leases as well as the increase in the size of particular stores upon modification.

~~Manufacturing segment~~34

~~The~~Manufacturing administrative expenses of our manufacturing segment decreased by 50.0% from $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease was primarily due to the reduction in expenditures by $0.04 million in connection with special allowance granted to management staff for the three months ended June 2011 which has only been paid once and is not recurrent in nature.Segment

The administrative expense of our manufacturing segment remained stable and was $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses increased by 41.2% from $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to the increase in our marketing staff’s wages and salaries, and payment for staff welfare in connection with the increase in the number of staff for the retail segment in connection with our marketing campaign and the growth strategy in respect of medical consultation services. The percentage of our selling expenses to our total revenue increased from 2.5% in 2011 to 4.3% in 2012.

Pharmaceutical Distribution Segment

The selling expenses of our pharmaceutical distribution segment increased by 42.9% from $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was primarily attributed to the increase in transportation and loading charges of $0.2 million. Despite the overall reduction in sales, the sales derived from the distributors did increase substantially. Unlike the hospital customers, however, those distributors were located outside the Guangxi Province and the costs of transportation were comparatively higher. This resulted in the increase in selling expenses increase despite the reduction in sales.

Retail Pharmacy Segment

The selling expenses of our retail pharmacy distribution segment increased by 57.1% from $0.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to increases in our salaries of retail staff by $0.4 million due to an increase in the number of staff and staff benefits and by $0.2 million upon the increase in the number of staff upon the increase in number and the size of the particular stores. Further, we employ 24 Chinese medical consultants for the consultation services.

Manufacturing Segment

The selling expenses of our manufacturing segment remained the same and were $0.2 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

Change in Fair Value of Warrants

For the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012, we recognized a non-cash gain of $0.21 million which resulted from the change in fair value of warrants issued to investors in conjunction with the Company’s issuance of warrants in December 2009 and February 2010 pursuant to provisions of FASB ASC ~~Topic 805~~815, “Derivative and Hedging.”. The accounting treatment of the warrants resulted from a provision providing anti-dilution protection to the warrant holders.

Income ~~Before~~before Income Tax

As a result of the foregoing, our income before income tax decreased by 2854.08% to $8.5.7 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 compared to $1112.86 million for the same period in 2011. The percentage of our income before income tax to total revenue was 1410.03% in 2012 as compared to 18.27% in 2011. The decrease is mainly attributed to the reduction in sales amount and the gross margin thereon derived from the pharmaceutical distribution segment upon the ~~reduction~~reductions in ~~price~~prices after the completion of tenders as described above~~; the effects of which were reflected in this period~~.

Pharmaceutical distribution segment

Our income before income tax from our distribution operations decreased by 3967.75% from $7.8.0 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011, to $42.76 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012. The profit margin decreased to 106.76% from 16.0%. ~~and~~The ~~the~~ reduction in profit margin is attributed to the drop in gross profits resulting from ~~lower~~price ~~prices~~ adjustments after the completion of the collective tendering process and the increase in portion of sales to ~~distribution agents which contributes lower profit margin~~distributors.

Retail pharmacy segment

Our income before income tax from our retail pharmacy segment was ~~increased~~decreased by 8.03% from $2.54 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011, to $2.72 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012.

Our income before income tax from our manufacturing segment operations decreased by 1126.23% from $1.89 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011, to $1.64 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012. The profit margin decreased to 42.83% from 5153.18%; ~~and~~these ~~the~~reductions ~~reduction~~are is attributed to the reduction in gross margin upon the increase in share of lower profit margin ~~product~~products.

Net Income

As a result of the above factors, we had net income of $6.4.2 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 as compared to $89.65 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011, representing a decrease of $25.23 million or approximately 2555.68%. For the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012, our net income was impacted by arecognition of net non-cash ~~gain~~expenses ~~derived~~of ~~from~~$0.1 ~~the~~million ~~change~~inclusive ~~in fair value~~ of warrant liabilities ofand ~~$0.2~~share ~~million~~based ~~which~~compensation.

Pharmaceutical ~~distribution~~Distribution ~~segment~~Segment

We derive the majority of our revenue from our pharmaceutical distribution segment from sales of pharmaceutical products to our customers. We distribute a comprehensive offering of pharmaceutical and health care products, including branded and generic prescription medicines, over-the-counter medicines, ~~Western~~western and ~~TCM~~traditional Chinese medicines, as well as personal care products and medical supplies.

Revenue from our pharmaceutical distribution segment ~~increased~~decreased by 54.6% from $91142.70 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011 to $96135.84 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012. The ~~increase~~decrease in revenue of $56.06 million iswas the result of the ~~decrease~~reduction in price oflevel by $7.4 million ~~and~~after the offset for the increase in sales volume byof $9.0.8 million.

The reduction in sales to clinics and health care centers was mainly attributed to the substantial decrease in price of drugs under the prescribed list of Basic Drugs Catalogue. Upon the current township’s distribution plan from Basic Drugs Catalogue Plan, we now have distribution rights to 22 townships compared to the 6 municipalities we previously had. Despite the increase in the number of townships granted, the number of distributors invited also increased. We are still in the stage of developing these new markets which for the present has resulted in reduced sales derived from this group in light of the reduction in the price of drugs under the prescribed list of Basic Drugs Catalogue that we sell to those health care centers.38

~~Retail~~The ~~pharmacy~~increase ~~segment~~in the sales to distributors and others was derived from certain new distributors that we have started to work with during the period and from the increase in the quantity and species of drugs by a few existing distributors

~~Revenue~~Retail ~~from~~Pharmacy our retail pharmacy segment increased by 8.6% from $25.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $27.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in revenue resulted from the increase in sales volume of $2.0 million approximately. The increase in sales was mainly attributed to the increase in sales from certain stores which have been opened since the third quarter of 2011 and are now in the stage of growth. Further, we upgraded and restructured part of our retail stores and now offer free Chinese medical counseling services; this has also driven the increase in sales. The increase offsets the reduction in sales from certain old stores which are now mature. There was a net increase of 15 stores opened since the third quarter of year 2011; 14 stores was opened during six months ended June 30, 2012. Segment

Revenue from our retail pharmacy segment increased by 5.1% from $39.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $41.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in revenue by $2.0 million resulted from the increase in sales volume of $2.0 million mainly. The increase was primarily attributed to the growth of sales by particular stores that have been opened since 2010 in which we are in the growth stage. Further, we have upgraded and restructured several of our retail stores to offer free Chinese medical counseling services, which has also driven the increase in sales. In addition, we have opened 23 stores since September 30, 2011. However, the above increase was offset partly by the reduction in sales derived from the stores that have been closed under our stores restructuring plan. The revenue contributed by new stores for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $1.5 million as compared to $6.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 representing a decrease of $5 million. This difference is the result of the fact that there were 23 stores opened after September 2011 while there were 62 stores opened after September 2010.

The following table sets forth revenue from our retail pharmacy segment by existing stores and new stores opened during each period.

~~Manufacturing segment~~39

~~Revenue~~Manufacturing from our manufacturing segment increased by 22.2% from $6.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $7.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was attributed solely to the volume of sales as there were no changes in prices between the periods. The increase in sales was attributed to increased penetration of sales to distributors as a result of the efforts of our sales representatives.Segment

34Revenue from our manufacturing segment increased by 12.2% from $9.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $11.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was attributed to the increase in sales volume as there were no changes in prices between the periods. The increase in sales was attributed to increased penetration of sales to distributors as a result of the efforts of our sales representatives especially for the lower profit margin products.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales was $~~102~~147.51 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 as compared to $94145.02 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011, representing an increase of $1. 9 million or approximately 1.3%. Our cost of sales consists of the cost of merchandise, raw materials, and other costs. Other costs include direct labor, depreciation and ~~overhead~~miscellaneous ~~expenses~~costs. The increase was primarily ~~due~~attributed to anthe ~~increase~~overall reduction in gross profit margin derived from our ~~revenue~~pharmaceutical distribution segment.

Gross ~~Profit~~Profits

Gross profit was $2940.96 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 as compared to $2946.70 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011, representing ana ~~increase~~decrease of $05.24 million or approximately 011.7%. Our gross profit margin was ~~decreased~~21.6% ~~from~~and 24.0% for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, ~~2011~~2012 toand ~~22.6% for the six months ended June 30~~2011, ~~2012~~respectively. The decrease in gross profit margin was mainly attributed to the reduction in the gross margin derived from the pharmaceutical distribution segment. For hospital customers, we establish a pricing range aligned with our suppliers through the PRC ~~Government~~government-mandated collective tender process while the prices of drugs sold to health care community centers are governed by the prescribed list within the Basic Drug Catalogue. As for other pharmaceutical product distributors, we arrange three party negotiations with distributors and suppliers. Under the current tender, the prices under the bids do drop and we cannot maintain the margin atin the same ~~pace~~degree between our cost of purchasing pharmaceutical products from our suppliers and our prices of pharmaceutical products sold to our ~~hospitals~~hospital and health care centers customers. This resulted in the reduction in overall gross profit margin.

Pharmaceutical ~~distribution~~Distribution ~~segment~~Segment

The gross profit margin for our pharmaceutical distribution segment was approximately 1514.61% and 18.68% for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The cost of sales includes only the cost of merchandise. A Our substantial share of ~~our~~ pharmaceutical distribution ~~segment~~segments ~~revenue~~ is derived from the hospital customers and ~~health care centers and~~ the price is governed by the PRC Government-mandated collective tender process ~~and the Basic Drug Catalogue~~. After the tender, there is a general reduction in ~~prices~~price ofover the drugs and the margin between our cost of purchasing pharmaceutical products from our suppliers and our prices of pharmaceutical products sold to ~~hospitals~~our ~~and~~hospital ~~health~~customers ~~care centers~~ did decrease concurrently, ~~resulting~~and resulted in ~~reduced~~margin reduction. Further, the reduction of sales of generic drugs which are of higher profit margin also contributed to the decrease. ~~Further~~In addition, anthe ~~increase~~substantial ingrowth of the portion of revenue derived from distributors also ~~reduced~~ impacts the ~~ratio~~margin as the margin offrom sales to the distributors is the lowest among all of our ~~categories~~types of customers.

Retail ~~pharmacy~~Pharmacy ~~segment~~Segment

The gross profit margin for our retail pharmacy segment was approximately 37.74% and 33.21% for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The cost of sales includes only the cost of merchandise, and we adjust the retail price in accordance with the cost of merchandise. The increase in gross profit margin ~~was~~is attributable to the sales of higher profit margin products inclusive of Chinese herbs, especially upon the introduction of free Chinese medical counseling service.

~~Manufacturing segment~~40

~~The~~Manufacturing gross profit margin for our manufacturing segment was approximately 55.4% and 64.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The reduction in profit margin is attributed to the increase in relative mix of sales of lower profit margin products.Segment

~~Selling~~The gross profit margin for our manufacturing segment was approximately 54.6% and 64.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and ~~Administrative~~2011, ~~Expenses~~respectively. The cost of sales consists of cost of merchandise, raw materials and other costs. Other costs include direct labor, depreciation, and miscellaneous costs. The reduction in gross profit margin is attributed to the increase in relative mix of sales of lower profit margin products.

~~Selling~~Operating and administrative expenses totaled $9.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to $9.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, representing an decrease of $0.2 million or approximately 2.1%. The decrease was attributed to the reduction of administrative expenses by $1.1 million and partly offset by the increase of selling expenses by $0.9 million.Expenses

Selling ~~Expenses~~and administrative expenses totaled $14.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $13.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, representing an increase of $0.8 million or approximately 6.0%. The increase was attributed to the increase of selling expenses by $1.5 million after the offset of administrative expenses by $0.7 million.

Selling expenses increased by 24.3% from $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to the increase in transportation costs and our marketing staff’s wages and salaries, and payment for staff welfare in connection with our increased sales and marketing activities. The percentage of our selling expenses to our total revenue increased from 3.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to 3.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Pharmaceutical distribution segment

The selling expenses of our pharmaceutical distribution segment increased by 38.5% from $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to the increase in transportation charges by $0.4 million upon the increase in sales volume.

Retail pharmacy segment

The selling expenses of our retail pharmacy segment increased by 15.0% from $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to the increase in staff salaries and staff benefits by $0.2 million upon the increase in the number of staff upon the increase in number of stores and the employment of the Chinese medical consultant.

Manufacturing segment

The selling expenses of our manufacturing segment increased by 25.0% from $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to the increase in sales commission of $0.1 million upon the increase in sales.

Administrative Expenses

Administrative expenses decreased by 197.37% from $5.7.8 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011 to $47.62 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012. The reduction in administrative expenses for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 was primarily due to ~~reduction~~the decrease in ~~consultation~~consultancy ~~fee~~fees by $0.67 million in connection with the listing ~~services in prior years which was not recurrent during the six months ended June 30, 2012~~matters. Further, the share-based compensation expenses decreased by $0.3 million from $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 to $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. This was attributed to the fact that $0.5 million in share-based compensation related to the 1,080,000 options granted to Mr. Tang and Ms. Zhang was fully expensed in the first six months ended June 30, 2011. The percentage of our administrative expenses to our total revenue decreased slightly from 4.61% in 2011 to 3.58% in 2012.

The increase was primarily attributed to an aggregate increase in rental expenditures by $0.13 million, staff and benefit costs by $0.36 million, and depreciation by $0.1 million. ~~upon~~The increase was offset by the ~~increase~~reduction in ~~renovation~~the ~~cost~~post-acquisition services fees of $0.6 million and ~~number~~repair and maintenance of $0.2 million. The increase in rental was due to an increase in the lease of certain stores ~~held~~upon entering new leases as well as the increase in the size of particular stores upon modification. The ~~above~~increase in staff costs was due to the increase isin ~~offset~~the contribution to the insurance plan, while in the past staff enrolled for private insurance by themselves.

The decrease was ~~primarily~~the ~~due~~combination toof ~~the~~ reduction in ~~expenditures~~deprecation and staff cost by $0.041 million ~~in connection with special allowance granted to management staff for the six months ended June 2011 which were onlypaid once and were not recurrent~~.

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses increased by 27.8% from $5.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $6.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to the increase in our salaries, and payment for staff welfare in connection with our retail pharmacy segment in connection with the increased marketing campaign and the medical consultant services together with the growth in transportation cost. The percentage of our selling expenses to our total revenue increased from 2.8% in 2011 to 3.7% in 2012.

Pharmaceutical Distribution Segment

The selling expenses of our pharmaceutical distribution segment increased by 19.0% from $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $2.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to the increase in the transportation and loading charges by $0.6 million. Despite the overall reduction in sales, the sales derived from the distributors did increase substantially. Unlike the hospital customers, however, those distributors were located outside the Guangxi Province and the costs of transportation were relatively higher. This resulted in the increase in selling expenses despite the reduction in sales.

Retail Pharmacy Segment

The selling expenses of our retail pharmacy segment increased by 25.9% from $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to the increase in our salaries and bonus to retail staff by $0.8 million in connection with the increase in sales revenue and the appointment of the Chinese medical consultants for counseling services.

Manufacturing Segment

The selling expenses of our manufacturing segment increased by 16.7% from $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to the increase of sales commissions to regional sales representatives of $0.1 million upon the increase in sales.

Change in Fair Value of Warrants

For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012, we incurred a non-cash gain of $0.12 million which resulted from the change in fair value of warrants issued to investors in conjunction with the Company’s issuance of warrants in December 2009 and February 2010 pursuant to provisions of FASB ASC Topic ~~805~~815, “Derivative and Hedging.”. The accounting treatment of the warrants resulted from a provision providing anti-dilution protection to the warrant holders.

~~Manufacturing~~Our income before income tax from retail pharmacy segment operations increased by 10.4% from $6.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $7.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 due to the non recurrence of the post-acquisition expenses for the acquisition of stores. The profit margin increased to 17.8% from 17.0%.

~~Our~~Manufacturing income before income tax from our manufacturing segment operations increased by 6.1% from $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, to $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The profit margin decreased to 45.6% from 51.7% and the reduction is attributed to the reduction in gross margin upon the increase in share of lower profit margin product.Segment

36Our income before income tax from manufacturing segment operations decreased by 5.8% from $5.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $4.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The profit margin decreased from 52.5% to 44.6%. The reduction in profit margin is attributed to the change in product mix resulting in a lower gross profit margin.

Net Income

As a result of the above factors, we had net income of $1519.35 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 as compared to $1424.93 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2011, representing ana ~~increase~~decrease of $0.4.8 million or approximately 219.78%.

Operating Activities

We derive our cash flow primarily from operating activities from the sale of our products and services inthrough our three operating segments. Our cash used in operating activities is primarily ~~from~~used for the purchase of raw materials and products, distribution and selling expenses and general administrative expenses and taxes. Cash flows from our operations can be significantly affected by several factors such as the timing of payment ~~collection~~ of accounts receivable and the payment of our accounts payable to our suppliers.

Cash from operating activities is ~~affected~~ primarily affected by ~~our~~the pharmaceutical distribution segment, which has a high demand on working capital while the retail pharmacy segment generates primarily cash and a minority of accounts receivable pending reimbursements for medi-card payments. Because ~~our~~the manufacturing segment accounted for only 5.89% of our revenues ~~during~~in the ~~first~~nine ~~six~~ months ofended September 30, 2012, it does not have a significant impact on cash from operating activities.

37Cash used in operating activities was $10.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $4.8 million used in operating activities during the same period in 2011, representing an increase of $5.9 million. Operating cash flows for 2012 reflect primarily net cash receipts derived from business operations. The increase in cash used in operating activities was mainly attributed to a number of factors. First, there was a slowdown in payments of accounts receivable, which increased from 123 days to 189 days. Further, as the decrease in sales did take place during the third quarter, the inventory level rose, which tightened our cash flow.

~~Cash~~For ~~used~~our inpharmaceutical ~~operating~~distribution ~~activities~~segment, ~~was~~accounts ~~$9.6~~receivable ~~million~~turnover days for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~ September 30, 2012 were 248 days as compared to ~~$23~~155 days in 2011.0 The ~~million~~increase ~~provided~~in turnover days was attributable to several factors. First, as our primary sales were the ones derived from hospitals, we are comfortable when extending and granting longer credit periods to those customers. Thus, hospitals and mostly the community service centers, which are owned by ~~operating~~the ~~activities~~PRC ~~during~~government, have comparatively longer payment cycles. Further, as the ~~same~~hospital ~~period~~is now prohibited to charge the patients a mark up over the use of drugs, the hospitals experienced tight cash flow and they delayed the payment to us. However, in ~~2011~~the PRC, ~~representing~~all hospitals and the community health care centers are owned or controlled by the PRC government and we believe that it is highly unlikely that a ~~decrease~~liquidation of ~~$32~~one of our hospital and community health care center customers will occur, and that the recovery of accounts receivable from them is highly assured.6 Therefore, ~~million~~it is our customary practice to grant a longer credit period to these customers. There have been no instances of uncollectible receivables owed by hospital or community health care center customers. ~~Operating~~In ~~cash~~addition ~~flows~~to ~~for~~the ~~2012~~hospital ~~reflects~~customers, ~~primarily~~a ~~net~~relatively ~~cash~~high ~~receipts~~balance ~~derived~~of receivables came from ~~business~~our ~~operations~~distributor customers. In fact, it is our practice to offset the accounts receivable and accounts payable for each distributor. ~~The~~It ~~substantial~~is ~~reduction~~common inthat ~~cash~~the ~~provided~~distributors act as both the vendor and customer of the Company. Upon mutual consents, we are allowed to offset the amount upon the mutual consent over the amounts owed by ~~operating~~and ~~activities~~to ~~was~~the ~~mainly~~parties. As ~~attributed~~we still owe money to these distributors, we are going to verify the ~~slowdown~~balances owed between us. As of ~~accounts~~September ~~receivable~~30, ~~payment~~2012, ~~which~~there ~~increased~~were ~~from~~a ~~102~~number ~~days~~of these debts remaining to ~~181~~be ~~days~~offset, resulting in a relatively high balance of receivables from distributors.

For our pharmaceutical distribution segment, accounts receivable turnover days for the six months ended June 30, 2012 were 235 days as compared to 128 days in 2011. The increase in turnover days was attributable to several factors. First, as our primary sales were sales derived from hospitals, when sales continued to increase, we became more comfortable extending and granting longer credit periods to those customers. Hospitals and mostly the community service centers, which are owned by the PRC government, have comparatively longer payment cycles. In the PRC, all hospitals and the community health care centers are owned or controlled by the PRC government. We believe that it is highly unlikely that a liquidation of one of our hospital and community health care center customers will occur, and that the recovery of accounts receivable from them is highly assured. Therefore, it is our customary practice to grant a longer credit period to these customers. There have been no instances of write-offs of any receivables owed by hospital or the community health care center customers. In addition to this, our distributor customers still take a high percentage of receivables. In fact, it is our practice to offset the accounts receivable and accounts payable for each distributor. It is common that the distributors act as both the vendor and customer of the Company. We are allowed to offset the amount yearly upon the mutual consent over the amounts owed by and to the parties. As we still owe money to these distributors, we are going to verify the balance owed between us. As of June 30, 2012, there were number of debts remaining to be offset, resulting in a relatively high balance of receivables from distributors.44

For our retail pharmacy segment, accounts receivable turnover days for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012 were 5 days as compared to 3 days in 2011 and there were no material changes. We generally have cash sales from customers at our retail stores except for sales to be reimbursed by the national insurance program. The accounts receivable comprised only the medi-card reimbursement under the national insurance program.

For our manufacturing segment, the accounts receivable turnover days were ~~136~~145 days ~~for the six months ended~~ in ~~June 30,~~ 2012 compared to ~~127~~129 days in 2011. The increase was attributed to the grant of a longer credit ~~term~~terms to the customer ~~upon~~who ~~an increase~~can inmeet ~~total~~our ~~orders~~agreed target sales volume to us.

Investing Activities

~~Our~~Cash ~~cash~~ flow from investing activities primarily consists of ~~the~~ ~~long-term~~purchases ~~deposits~~of ~~together~~property, ~~with~~plant and equipment and the ~~purchase~~acquisition of ~~property,~~assets ~~plant~~of ~~and~~drug ~~equipment~~stores by our retail segment. Cash used in investing activities was $2.49 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012, compared to $4.5.2 million of cash used in investing activities for the same period in 2011, representing a decrease of ~~cash used in investing activities by~~ $2.13 million. The reduction was primarily due to the reduction in payment of long-term deposits by $3.1 million because no significant new distribution agreement was signed with government hospitals in the period. The decrease was ~~primarily~~ offset by the increase in additions to property, plant and equipment byof $0.97 million, mainly incurred for the renovation of our offices and premises of retail stores for the provision of Chinese medical consultation services.

Financing Activities

Our cash from financing activities has been derived primarily from ~~private~~bank ~~placements~~loan ofactivities. ~~preferred~~In ~~stock~~addition, ~~and~~there ~~bank~~have ~~loan~~been occasional fund raising activities, including private placements. Cash provided by financing activities was $01.04 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012, compared to $2322.49 million for the same period in 2011 representing a decrease of cash provided by financing activities of $2321.~~4million~~5 million. The substantial decrease was primarily due to the fact that the 2011 period included proceeds from the placement of the preferred stock byof $29.5 million. Further, we have paid preferred stock dividends of $1.5 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2012. The reduction was offset partially by the increase in net proceeds from bank loans of $03.63 million and ana ~~advance~~reduction ofin ~~$0.4~~net ~~million~~repayment to related companies of $6.4 million.

Working ~~capital~~Capital

Our working capital as of ~~June~~September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $~~123~~127.10 million and $110.0 million, respectively. Our working capital is critical to our financial performance. We must maintain sufficient liquidity and financial flexibility to continue our daily operations. Our sales practices with hospitals in our pharmaceutical distribution segment, which have a longer term of payment of accounts receivable when compared with other customers, ~~and the substantial portion of our sales to hospitals~~ have resulted in a significant demand for working capital.

Critical Accounting Estimates

This section should be read together with the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included as Notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our financial statements. Our consolidated financial information has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, which requires us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect (1) the reported amounts of our assets and liabilities, (2) the disclosure of our contingent assets and liabilities at the end of each fiscal period and (3) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each fiscal period. We continually evaluate these estimates based on our own historical experience, knowledge and assessment of current business and other conditions, our expectations regarding the future based on available information and reasonable assumptions, which together form our basis for making judgments about matters that are not readily apparent from other sources. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, our actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of our accounting policies require a higher degree of judgment than others in their application.

When reviewing our financial statements, you should consider (1) our selection of critical accounting policies, (2) the judgment and other uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, and (3) the sensitivity of reported results to changes in conditions and assumptions. We believe the following accounting policies involve the most significant judgment and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.46

Goodwill

We account for goodwill in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC ~~805~~350, “Intangible – Goodwill and ~~Intangible~~Other” ~~Assets~~(“ASC 350”). We perform an impairment analysis on an annual basis and, in addition, if we notice any indication of impairment, we conduct that test immediately. The application of the impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units, assignment of assets and liabilities to reporting units and the determination of the fair value of each reporting unit. Fair value is primarily determined by computing the future discounted cash flows expected to be generated by the reporting unit that are believed to be reasonable under current and forecasted circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of the reported net assets of our reporting units. We ~~conducted~~do annot ~~impairment~~believe ~~test~~there asis ofany ~~March~~indication ~~31,~~of ~~2012~~impairment ~~and~~of nogoodwill ~~impairment~~as ~~loss~~of ~~was~~September ~~identified~~30, 2012.

39Long-lived Assets

Long-lived assets are tested for impairment in accordance with FASB ASC 360-10-45 “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” We periodically evaluate potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The application of the impairment test requires judgment inclusive of the future cash flows attributable from the use of the asset. If the asset is determined not to be recoverable, it is considered to be impaired and an impairment loss is recognized.

Depreciation

Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. We determine the estimated useful lives, residual values and related depreciation charges for our property, plant and equipment. This estimate is based on the historical experience of the actual useful lives and residual values of property, plant and equipment of similar nature and functions. We will revise the depreciation charge where useful lives and residual values are different from those previously estimated, or we will write- off or write- down technically obsolete or non-strategic assets that have been abandoned or sold.

Allowances for ~~doubtful~~Doubtful ~~accounts~~Accounts

We establish a general provisioning policy to make the allowance equivalent to 40% of gross amount of accounts receivable due from ~~six~~6 months to ~~one~~12 ~~year~~months and 100% of gross amount of accounts receivable due over ~~one~~12 ~~year~~months. ~~This general provisioning policy does not apply to particular categories of accounts receivables in which liquidation will not occur.~~ Additional specific provisions are made against accounts receivable whenever they are considered to be uncollectible. We make judgments over the customer’s ability to pay their outstanding invoices on a timely basis and whether their financial position might deteriorate significantly in the future affecting their capability for repayments.

Allowances for ~~inventories~~Inventories

In assessing the ultimate realization of inventories, we make judgments as to future demand requirements compared to current or committed inventory levels. We estimate the demand requirements based on market conditions, forecasts over the demand by our customers, sales contracts and orders in hand. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2012, 1.03% of our inventory will expire within 1- 6 months, 21.09% of our inventory will expire within 7 to 9 months ~~time~~, 2.81% will expire within 10 to 12 months ~~time~~, 94.27% of inventory will expire in over 112 ~~year~~months. ~~For~~ ~~drug~~We ~~inventory~~estimate ~~that~~the ~~expires~~extent ~~within~~of 6provision ~~months~~made ~~time,~~for weinventory ~~estimate~~which ~~the~~expires ~~extent~~within of6 ~~provision~~months ~~made~~ after assessing the capability of a selling campaign and the possible return of drugs to the vendors. As for the drugs which will expire in over half a year’s time, we judge that the drugs are still marketable and estimate the provision upon ~~our estimate of~~ the future demand and the current inventory level.

~~Recognition of revenue~~47

~~Revenue is recognized when the following criteria under FASB ASC 605 “Revenue~~ Recognition” ~~are~~of ~~met:~~Revenue

Revenue is recognized when the following criteria under FASB ASC 605 “Revenue Recognition” are met :

1)	Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

2)	Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;

3) The ~~seller~~Company’s price to the ~~buyer~~customer is fixed or determinable; and

4)	Collectability is reasonably assured.

The Company bases its estimates on historical results, taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.

40Pharmaceutical Distribution Segment

~~Sales~~We sell a range of ~~goods~~ pharmaceutical products to various customers and the majority of revenue results from the contracts signed with various distributors and government-owned ~~Pharmaceutical~~hospitals. Revenue from pharmaceutical distribution ~~segment~~operations is recognized when substantially all of the usual risks and rewards of ownership of the inventory have been transferred to the buyer. Generally, this occurs when the inventory is shipped to the customer. Currently, we do not have any sales on consignment and we do not use consignment sales as our sales method. In the absence of the right of return clause, we estimate that the product return was insignificant other than for returns because of damage arising from delivery. We are not obligated to accept the return should the inventory kept by the customers be excessive or expire without being sold by them. We do accept return of inventory damaged during delivery. We grant credit to customers with proven payment records. Collectability is assessed by background checks for new customers.

Currently, we do not have any sales on consignment and we do not use consignment sales as our sales method. The price to the buyer is fixed and no cancellation clause exists and there is no right of return except in rare cases where those pharmaceutical goods are damaged during the delivery process.

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, $1,304,165 worth of goods was returned as a result of damage. We have not sold goods to customers as a result of incentives. We do not grant sales discount or any allowances to customers if they do not re-sell their goods before the date of expiration. No return of goods is allowed unless the goods are damaged during the delivery process.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined under Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

We have carried out an evaluation as required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures of ~~June~~September 30, 2012. As of March 31 2012 and June 30, 2012, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have determined that our current disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as evidenced by instances of non-conformity with US GAAP in draft financial statements furnished to our independent registered accounting firm in connection with their attest procedures. These included (i) non-compliant initial disclosures resulting from improper valuations in connection with the acquisition of retail stores that did not adequately consider the possibility of separately identifiable intangible assets acquired in the transactions as required by FASB ASC Topic 805 “Business Combination”, (ii) improper treatment of payments made in connection with the acquisition of retail stores, where certain payments were initially treated as additional consideration, but should have been treated as compensation for services, and (iii) improper accounting treatment and valuation of convertible preferred shares that was not initially in compliance with FASB ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” or ASR 268 (Securities and Exchange Commission, Financial Reporting Codification, Section No. 211, Redeemable Preferred Stocks), all as further described in the Company’s Amendment No. 4 to its Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, filed with the SEC on October 9, 2012. The Company’s management nevertheless concluded that the financial statements filed with the SEC present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, and results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with US GAAP. The Company came to this conclusion after reviewing the financial statements in connection with the annual audits and quarterly reviews performed by its independent registered public accounting firm. In connection with such review, the Company was able to identify the instances of non-conformity with GAAP.

Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2012 covered by this report (and the financial statements contained in the report), our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have determined that our current disclosure controls and procedures are still not effective for the same reasons as stated above.49

Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2012 covered by this report (and the financial statements contained in the report), and after taking into account the changes in our internal controls over financial reporting, as discussed below, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have determined that our current disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

As noted above, as of June 30, 2012, we ~~have~~ identified certain matters that constituted a material ~~weakness~~weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we lacked certain procedures and policies to ensure proper and efficient financial reporting and we lacked sufficient accounting personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in US GAAP and SEC reporting requirements. We have taken, and are taking, certain actions to remediate this material weakness related to our lack of US GAAP experience. During the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2012, we initiated on-the-job training in US GAAP and related matters for our staff and we also adopted and implemented internal policies regarding capitalization, depreciation, and monthly closing of the financial books to address weaknesses relating to those matters. Additionally, during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2012, we ~~plan~~continued to provide our internal staff with ~~further~~ appropriate training with respect to US GAAP ~~and~~by weensuring ~~expect~~that tothey ~~engage~~execute ~~consulting~~the ~~professionals~~account ~~with~~procedures ~~greater~~that ~~knowledge~~we ofimplemented USto ~~GAAP~~address inthe ~~our~~material ~~operations~~weaknesses, ~~and~~with a focus on complying with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, ~~to oversee our financial reporting process in order to ensure our compliance with~~ US GAAP and the relevant securities laws. We So ~~are~~far ~~currently in the process of identifying qualified consultants to assist the Company with US GAAP compliance until such time as~~ we ~~are~~have ~~able~~engaged toan ~~train~~outside ~~and develop our internal resources in this area. We expect to engage~~ consulting ~~professionals~~professional ~~during~~firm ~~the third quarter of 2012 in time~~ to assist in the review of our financial statements for this Quarterly Report.
