PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

Overview of Our Business

We are a biopharmaceutical company, through our indirect majority-owned PRC subsidiaries, Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang, and our minority-owned PRC investee, Huitian, principally engaged in the research, development, manufacturing and sales of human plasma-based pharmaceutical products in China. Shandong Taibang operates from our manufacturing facility located in Tai’an, Shandong Province and Guizhou Taibang operates from our manufacturing facility located in Guiyang, Guizhou Province. Our minority owned investee, Huitian, operates from its facility in Shaanxi Province. The human plasma-based biopharmaceutical manufacturing industry in China is highly regulated by both provincial and central governments. Accordingly, the manufacturing process of our products is strictly monitored from the initial collection of plasma from human donors to finished products. Our principal products include our approved human albumin and immunoglobulin products.

We are approved to sell human albumin with dosages of 20%/10ml, 20%/25ml, 20%/50ml, 10%/10ml, 10%/25ml, 10%/50ml and 25%/50ml. Human albumin is our top-selling product. Sales of these human albumin products represented approximately 54.5%, 48.0% and 49.7% of our total sales for each of the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Human albumin is principally used to increase blood volume while immunoglobulin, one of our other major products, is used for certain disease prevention and cures. Our approved human albumin and immunoglobulin products use human plasma as the basic raw material. Albumin has been used for almost 50 years to treat critically ill patients by replacing lost fluid and maintaining adequate blood volume and pressure. All of our products are prescription medicines administered in the form of injections.

We sell our products to customers in the PRC, mainly hospitals and inoculation centers directly or through approved distributors. We usually sign short-term contracts with customers and therefore our largest customers have changed over the years. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, our top 5 customers accounted for approximately 13.2%, 12.3% and 10.7%, respectively, of our total sales. As we continue to diversify our geographic presence, customer base and product mix, we expect that our largest customers will continue to change from year to year.

We operate and manage our business as a single segment. We do not account for the results of our operations on a geographic or other basis.

Our principal executive offices are located at 18th Floor, Jialong International Building, 19 Chaoyang Park Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing 100125, the People’s Republic of China. Our corporate telephone number is (86) 10-6598-3111 and our fax number is (86)10-6598-3222. We maintain a website at http://www.chinabiologic.com that contains information about our company, but that information is not part of this report.

Our History and Background

China Biologic Products, Inc. was originally incorporated on December 20, 1989 under the laws of the State of Texas as Shepherd Food Equipment, Inc. On November 20, 2000, Shepherd Food Equipment, Inc. changed its corporate name to Shepherd Food Equipment, Inc. Acquisition Corp., which is the survivor of a May 28, 2003 merger with GRC Holdings, Inc. or GRC. In the merger, the Company adopted the Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws of GRC and changed its corporate name to GRC Holdings, Inc. On January 10, 2007, a Plan of Conversion became effective pursuant to which GRC was converted into a Delaware corporation and changed its name to China Biologic Products, Inc.

Acquisition of Taibang Biological

On July 19, 2006, we completed a reverse acquisition with Taibang Biological, whereby we issued to the shareholders of Taibang Biological 18,484,715 shares of our common stock in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Taibang Biological and its majority-owned Chinese operating subsidiary, Shandong Taibang. As a result of the reverse acquisition, Taibang Biological became our 100% owned subsidiary, the former shareholders of Taibang Biological became our controlling stockholders with 96.1% of our common stock and Shandong Taibang became our 82.76% majority-owned indirect subsidiary. Shandong Taibang is a sino-foreign joint venture company established on October 23, 2002 with a registered capital of RMB80 million (then approximately $10.3 million).

Acquisition of Plasma Stations

In December 2006, our subsidiary, Shandong Taibang, acquired all the assets of five plasma stations in Shandong Province. We obtained the permit to operate the stations in January 2007. In April 2007, Shandong Taibang acquired certain assets of two plasma stations in Guangxi Province. The two plasma stations obtained their operating permits in February and April 2007, respectively.

2


We acquired the assets of these plasma stations through separate Shandong Taibang subsidiaries, specially formed for this purpose. The subsidiaries holding six of our new plasma stations are the Xia Jin Plasma Company, the Qi He Plasma Company, the He Ze Plasma Company, the Huan Jiang Plasma Company, the Liao Cheng Plasma Company, and the Zhang Qiu Plasma Company. The seventh plasma station is held by the Fang Cheng Plasma Company, which at the time was 80% owned by Shandong Taibang and 20% owned by Feng Lin, an unrelated third party. On January 13, 2010, Shandong Taibang acquired the 20% non-controlling interest in the Fang Cheng Plasma Company, and it is now wholly-owned by Shandong Taibang. In January 2007, Shandong Taibang also signed a letter of intent to acquire certain assets of a plasma station in Guangxi Province, however, we have not consummated this acquisition as the permit for this station is in dispute, as described in Item 3, “Legal Proceedings.”

In June 2008, we received approval from the Guangxi Province Bureau of Health to set up a new plasma collection station in Pu Bei County, Guangxi Province. The new plasma collection station will be located in the Centralized Industry Zone of Pu Bei County and when it becomes operational, it could replace our existing Fang Cheng Plasma Collection Station with a more strategic location to increase collection volumes. However, due to disagreement among local government branches on the approval of the plasma station, the management is uncertain whether this station will be approved or when it will be approved. The management is still working with the local government for the approval of the Pu Bei Plasma Station.

On January 22, 2010, Shandong Taibang entered into an equity transfer agreement with Yuncheng Ziguang Biotechnology Co., Ltd., or Yuncheng Ziguang, located in Yuncheng, Shandong Province. Under the terms of the equity transfer agreement, Shandong Taibang agreed to purchase 100% of Yuncheng Ziguang’s equity interest at a purchase price of RMB 10,066,672 (then approximately $1,476,781), which was paid on February 24, 2010. The purpose of this acquisition is for relocation of Shandong Taibang’s He Ze Plasma Company into the nearby Yuncheng Ziguang facility. In February 2011, the He Ze Plasma Company moved into the Yuncheng Ziguang facility and began collecting plasma. Currently Yuncheng Ziguang has no other operations.

On July 7, 2010, Shandong Taibang invested RMB 6,000,000 (then approximately $910,200) to establish a wholly-owned subsidiary, Ning Yang Plasma Company, in Shandong Province. The Ning Yang Plasma Company obtained its operating permits from relevant PRC authorities on July 11, 2011, and commenced collection operation in July, 2011.

On July 20, 2010, Shandong Taibang invested another RMB 6,000,000 (then approximately $910,200) to establish a wholly-owned subsidiary, Yishui Plasma Company, in Shandong Province. The Yi Shui Plasma Company obtained its operating permits from relevant PRC authorities on December 6, 2010, and commenced collection operation in December, 2010.

Establishment of Taibang Medical

In September 2006, Shandong Taibang established a wholly owned subsidiary, Taibang Medical (known then as Shandong Missile Medical Co., Ltd.) with registered capital of $384,600, fully paid on March 1, 2007. On February 7, 2007, Taibang Medical obtained a distribution license for biological products, except for vaccine, from the Shandong Food and Drug Administration. The registration of Taibang Medical was ultimately approved by Shandong Provincial Department of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation on July 4, 2007 and Taibang Medical was registered on July 19, 2007. The scope of business is wholesale of biological products, except vaccines, with a license period of 25 years from the date of registration.

On August 14, 2009, we changed Taibang Medical’s name to Shandong Taibang Medical Company. In addition, the registered capital of Taibang Medical was increased by RMB 2,000,000 (then approximately $293,400) to $733,500, and vaccine was also added to the scope of business.

On July 8, 2010, Taibang Biotech entered into an equity transfer agreement to purchase 100% of the equity interest in Taibang Medical from Shandong Taibang with a cash purchase price of RMB 6,440,000 (then approximately $947,327). The equity transfer was registered with the local Administration for Industry and Commerce, or AIC, on September 10, 2010 and the purchase price was fully paid on September 23, 2010. With this equity transfer, Taibang Medical is now our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary and we will be able to consolidate its resources in the sale and marketing of Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang’s products.

On September 28, 2011, Taibang Medical obtained renewed distribution license for biological products, including vaccine, from the Shandong Food and Drug Administration, for a license period of five years till September 27, 2016.

Formation of Hong Kong Subsidiary

On December 12, 2008, we established Taibang Holdings, our wholly-owned Hong Kong subsidiary, for the purpose of being a holding company for our majority interest in Dalin.

Dalin Acquisition and Entrustment Agreement

We completed the acquisition of 90% interest in Dalin in April 2009 upon payment of 90% of the purchase price. We substantially paid the remaining 10% of the purchase price, RMB 19,440,000 (then approximately $2,844,350), on April 9, 2010, the one-year anniversary of the approval of the equity transfer by the local AIC.

On January 4, 2011, we entered into an equity transfer agreement with Shaowen Fan to acquire the remaining 10% minority interest in Dalin for a purchase price of RMB 50,000,000 (then approximately $7,585,000). The equity transfer was registered with the local AIC on January 26, 2011 and the purchase price was fully paid as of February 22, 2011 in accordance with the equity transfer agreement. With this equity transfer, Dalin is now the Company’s indirect wholly-owned subsidiary.

On April 6, 2009, Taibang Biological entered into an agreement with Shandong Institute, the noncontrolling interest holders in Shandong Taibang, pursuant to which Shandong Institute would provide an advance to assist Taibang Biological’s purchase of 90% in Dalin’s equity interests. Under the terms of the agreement, Shandong Institute agreed to provide advance of $3,935,000 (RMB25,000,000), representing 12.86% of our purchase consideration in Dalin to us for one year, bearing interest equal to the higher of a proportionate share of the net income of Dalin during the year ended December 31, 2009 or 6% per annum. On April 12, 2010, we fully paid the advance from Shandong Institute and the interest of approximately $1.3 million, which was less than our previous estimate by approximately $0.9 million. We recorded the difference between the previous estimate and actual payment in other income of the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2010.

As part of our due diligence investigation into Dalin and its operating subsidiary, Guizhou Taibang, we discovered that our indirect interest in Guizhou Taibang acquired under the equity transfer agreement may be diluted to as low as 41.3% . The local AIC records show Dalin as a 54% shareholder of Guizhou Taibang; however, the AIC records do not reflect a potential issuance of Guizhou Taibang’s equity interests to certain investors in May 2007, pursuant to a capital increase agreement. Guizhou Taibang has received the consideration for the potential issuance of equity interests, but the increase in registered capital and the related issuance of the equity interest has not yet been registered with the local AIC, pending the outcome of a minority shareholder suit against Guizhou Taibang and its then shareholders, alleging violation of the shareholder’s right of first refusal in connection with the May 2007 equity issuance. For details regarding the Guizhou Taibang shareholder suit and our position with respect to the May 2007 equity issuance of Guizhou Taibang’s equity interests, see our disclosure under Item 3 “Legal Proceedings” herein.

Guizhou Taibang owned seven plasma collection stations at the time of our acquisition, of which five had been in operation and collecting approximately 300 tons of plasma supply per year, with an annual capacity of 400 tons.

On December 30, 2010, the Guiyang AIC approved Guizhou Taibang’s application to change its name to Guizhou Taibang Biological Products Co., Ltd. We expect that the name change will facilitate our promotion of the “Taibang” brand name and further the Company’s integration of its marketing efforts.

On November 11, 2010, the Company established Guiyang Guizhou Taibang Biological Technology Co., Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Guizhou Taibang, in Guiyang, Guizhou, for the purpose of research and development of placenta based products.

On July 15, 2011, the Guizhou Provincial Health Department issued the revised “Plan for Guizhou Provincial Blood Collection Institutional Setting (2011-2014)” which limits the number of counties that are permitted to set up plasma collection stations in Guizhou Province to four counties (the “Guizhou Plan”). As a result of the implementation of the Guizhou Plan, the licenses of four active plasma collection stations in Dan Zhai, Wei Ning, San Sui and Na Yong counties owned by Guizhou Taibang were not renewed after their respective plasma collection permits expired at the end of July 2011. The licenses of its plasma collection stations in Pu Ding and Huang Ping counties (locations permitted under the Guizhou Plan) were renewed until July 31, 2013. These four stations in Dan Zhai, Wei Ning, San Sui and Na Yong counties together accounted for approximately 21.0% (7 months of operation) and 34.1% of the Company’s total plasma collection by volume for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In addition, Guizhou Taibang’s inactive plasma collection station in Guizhou Province that was purchased from the government in 2007 is unlikely to be licensed as planned, because it is in Zhengyuan County, a location not included in the Guizhou Plan. As a result of the closure of the above plasma collection stations, certain equipment, office furniture, building improvement and plasma collection permits were abandoned and written off during the three months ended September 30, 2011.

Huitian Acquisition

We purchased a 35% interest in Huitian at a purchase price of RMB 44,000,000 (then approximately $6,454,800) in October 2008. Huitian is a manufacturer of plasma-based biopharmaceutical products in Shaanxi Province and is one of only 30 such manufacturers in China which are government approved. Shaanxi Province, which has a population of 37 million, has had a historically high collection volume with approximately ten plasma collection stations in operation, collecting approximately 300 tons of plasma supply each year. Only four of the collection stations in Shaanxi Province are government approved and three of these are owned by Huitian. Huitian produces about 80 tons of plasma-based products per year and has 200 tons of annual production capacity. We believe Huitian provides a strong long-term growth potential. Huitian is in compliance with GMP standards and it is also approved by the SFDA for the production of Human Albumin, Human Immunoglobulin, Human Immunoglobulin for Intravenous Injection, and Human Hepatitis B Immunoglobulin products.

Formation of PRC Subsidiaries

On December 21, 2009, our Hong Kong subsidiary, Taibang Holdings, established Taibang Biotech for the purpose of holding our majority interest in Dalin and to facilitate our Chinese operations at the holding company level. On December 28, 2009, the Company transferred its 90% equity interest in Dalin from Taibang Holdings to Taibang Biotech to complete this process.

On August 5, 2010, Taibang Biotech formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Taibang Beijing, with a registered capital of RMB 1 million (then approximately $149,700). Taibang Beijing was established to operate all research and development activities of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Our Industry

Plasma Collection in China

The collection of human plasma in China is generally influenced by a number of factors such as government regulations, geographical locations of collection stations, sanitary conditions of collection stations, living standards of the donors, and cultural and religious beliefs. Until 2006, only licensed Plasmapheresis stations owned and operated by the government could collect human plasma. Furthermore, each collection station was only allowed to supply plasma to the one manufacturer that had signed the “Quality Responsibility” statement with them. However, in March 2006, the Ministry of Health promulgated certain “Measures on Reforming Plasma Collection Stations,” or the Blood Collection Measures, whereby the ownership and management of PRC plasma stations are required to be transferred to plasma-based biopharmaceutical companies and the local government is charged with regulatory supervision and administrative control in accordance with the policies of the central government. Plasma stations that did not complete their reform by December 31, 2006 risked revocation of their license to collect plasma.

The supply of plasma for plasma-based products in the PRC has been on the decline since 2003 from the historical high of annual supply of approximately 7,000 metric tons to approximately 3,130 metric tons in 2008 and gradually recovering to approximately 4,180 metric tons in 2010. We believe that the decline prior to 2008 was a direct result of the government’s industry reforms of the country’s collection practices which led to the closure of many stations that did not meet the new industry standards. Based on reports promulgated by the PRC Ministry of Health, as well as the closure of 16 plasma stations in Guizhou Province as described in Item 7 below, we estimate that the current annual supply of plasma in China amounts to approximately 4,000 metric tons, as compared to 30,000 metric tons in the global market, with the six largest manufacturers of plasma products accounting for approximately 50% of the annual plasma collection. In spite of the shortage of plasma supply, revenues from the sale of plasma products in China amounted to approximately $1.3 billion in 2010 per management’s estimate, and revenues from the sale of human albumin products accounted for about 75% in 2010.

We believe that these regulatory changes, including measures which limit illegal selling of blood, have improved the quality of blood and plasma by increasing cleanliness standards at blood collection stations. As the operation of the plasma stations become more regulated and the donor population expands, we believe that the overall quality of raw materials will continue to improve, leading to a safer, more reliable finished product.

Plasma-Based Products Industry in China

We produce approved human albumin and immunoglobulin products, with human plasma as the main ingredient. In addition to the low usage ratio of such products in China as compared to other more developed countries, there is a significant difference in the make-up and range of the plasma-based pharmaceutical products. Based on our analysis, in most developed countries like the United States, clotting factor products accounts for the majority of the plasma-based biopharmaceutical products, while in China, human albumin products accounts for the vast majority of such products. Specifically, total clotting factor products and human albumin products, account for approximately 40% and 25%, respectively, of United States’ total annual plasma-derived products, and account for approximately 3% and 75%, respectively, of China’s.

Our Growth Strategy

Our mission is to become a first-class biopharmaceutical enterprise in China. To achieve this objective, we have implemented the following strategies:

(1)

“%” represents the degree of dosage concentration for the product and each product has its own dosage requirement. For example, Human Albumin 20%/10ml means 2g of Human Albumin is contained in each 10ml packaging and Human Immunoglobulin 10%/3ml means 300mg of Human Immunoglobulin is contained in each 3ml packaging. Under PRC law, each variation in the packaging, dosage and concentration of medical products requires registration and approval by the SFDA. During this process the altered product is not commercially available for sale. For example, among our Human Albumin products only Human Albumin 20%/10ml, 20%/25ml, 20%/50ml, 10%/10ml, 10%/25ml, 10%/50ml, and 25%/50ml products are currently approved and are commercially available.

   
(2)

“IU” means International Units, or IU. IU is a unit used to measure the activity of many vitamins, hormones, enzymes, and drugs. An IU is the amount of a substance that has a certain biological effect. For each substance there is an international agreement on the biological effect that is expected for 1 IU. In the case of Immunoglobulin, it means the number of effective units of antibodies in each package. When exposed to an antigen, the body views it as foreign material, and takes steps to neutralize the antigen. Typically, the body accomplishes this by making antibodies, which are intended to defend the body from invasion by potentially dangerous substances. These antibodies can be beneficial, as is the case when the body learns to fight a virus, or they can be harmful, in the instance of allergies. In a situation when the body cannot effectively react with these antigens, injection of our product will provide sufficient antibodies to neutralize the antigens.

Human albumin is principally used to increase blood volume while immunoglobulin is used for certain disease preventions and cures. Albumin is also used to treat critically ill patients by replacing lost fluid and maintaining adequate blood volume and pressure. Our approved human albumin and immunoglobulin products use human plasma as the basic raw material. All of our approved products are prescription medicines administered in the form of injections.

Under PRC law, each variation in the packaging, dosage and concentration of medical products requires registration and approval by the SFDA. During this process the altered product is not commercially available for sale. For example, among our human albumin products only Human Albumin 20%/10ml, 20%/25ml, 20%/50ml, 10%/10ml, 10%/25ml, 10%/50ml, and 25%/50ml products are currently approved and are commercially available. Accordingly, all references, in this report, to our manufacture and sale of human albumin relate to our approved human albumin products.

We have two product liability insurances covering Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang’s products in the amount of approximately $3,148,000 each. Since our establishment in 2002, there has not been any product liability claims nor has any legal action been filed against us by patients related to the use of our products.

Raw Materials

Plasma

Plasma is the principal raw material for our biopharmaceutical products. Until 2006, all plasma collection stations were owned by the PRC government. Following the mandated privatization of plasma stations resulted from the Ministry of Health’s Blood Collection Measures, we acquired our plasma collection stations. We believe that the acquisitions of plasma stations will give us a controlled source of plasma and better control over the quality and quantity produced. We will also be able to have increased control over the cost of plasma. Finally, we believe that we will enjoy benefits of economies of scale with respect to the administration and management expenses of our several plasma stations.

We spent $48.1 million, $51.0 million and $35.6 million on the collection of plasma in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Currently, we own seven operating plasma collection stations in Shandong province, two in Guangxi province and two in Guizhou province. We currently maintain sufficient plasma supply for approximately 6 months of production.

Other Raw Materials and Packaging Materials

Other raw materials used in the production of our biopharmaceutical products include: reagents, consumables and packaging materials. The principal packaging materials we use include glass bottles for our injection products, external packaging and printed instructions for our biopharmaceutical products. We acquire our raw materials and packaging materials from our approved suppliers in China and overseas. We select our suppliers based on quality, consistency, price and delivery of the raw materials which they supply.

We have not experienced any shortage of supply on these raw materials and packaging materials and there has not been any significant problem with the quality of materials supplied by these suppliers.

Our Major Suppliers

The table below lists our major suppliers as of December 31, 2011, showing the cumulative dollar amount of raw materials and supplies purchased from them during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, and the percentage of purchases from each supplier as compared to procurement of all raw materials.

Except for the Sansui Plasma Station, none of the above suppliers are plasma suppliers. The majority of our plasma was collected through our majority-owned plasma stations. These stations purchase, collect, examine and deepfreeze plasma on behalf of Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang, subject to rules and specifications that meet the Provincial SFDA’s requirements for quality, packaging and storage. The stations must only collect plasma from healthy donors within their respective districts and in accordance with a time table set by Shandong Taibang or Guizhou Taibang. The plasma must: be negative HbsAg, anti-HCV, anti-HIV and reaction of serum to RPR; contain an ALT ≤25 units (ALT), plasma protein ≥55g/l; contain no virus pollution or visible erythrolysis, lipemia, macroscopic red blood cell or any other irregular finding. In addition, the plasma must be packaged in 25 separate 600g bags, boxed with a packing list and labeled to be consistent with computer records and must be stored at -20°C within limited time after collection to ensure that it will congeal within 6 hours. Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang are fully responsible for the overall technical guidance and quality supervision.

Our Major Customers

Due to the nature of our products and the current regulations, almost all of our customers are located in China. We have established relationships with most of our key customers since our establishment in 2002. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, our top five customers, based on sales revenue and the percentage of their contribution to our revenues, were as follows:

Sales, Marketing and Distribution

Because all of our products are prescription drugs, we can only sell to hospitals and inoculation centers directly or through approved distributors. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, direct sales to distributors represented approximately 37.2%, 48.9% and 67.3%, respectively, of our total sales. Our five largest customers in the aggregate accounted for approximately 13.2%, 12.3% and 10.7% of our total sales for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Our largest customer accounted for approximately 6.2%, 2.8% and 4.0% of our total sales for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

As part of our effort to ensure the quality of our distributors, we conduct due diligence to verify whether potential distributors have obtained necessary permits and licenses and facilities (such as cold storage) for the distribution of our biopharmaceutical products. We also assess the distributors’ financial condition before appointing them as distributors. Certain of our regional distributors are appointed on an exclusive basis within a specified area. The supply contracts normally set out the quantity and price of products. For distributors, they also contain guidelines for the sale and distribution of our products, including restrictions on the geographical area to which the products could be sold. We provide our distributors with training in relation to our products and on sales techniques. We have implemented a coding system for our products for easy tracking. Depending on the relationship and the creditability of the distributors, we generally grant a credit period of no longer than 30 days to distributors with some exceptions. For hospitals and clinics, we generally grant a credit period of no longer than 90 days with exceptions to customers that we believe are credit worthy up to 6 months. Due to recovery of bad debt previously reserved, we had a bad debt credit of $0.02 million, $0.06 million and $0.01 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, related to the sales of our products.

Our current key market is in Shandong province, representing approximately 23.0%, 22.0% and 25.5% of our total sales for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Prior to the acquisition of Dalin and Huitian, our strategy has been to focus our marketing efforts in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Henan and the northeastern part of China. With the advantage of the scale of economy, we have been expanding our sales efforts into 30 provinces and municipal cities, especially those provinces that were untapped by Shandong Taibang previously, with Shandong and Guangdong provinces accounting for more than 31.3% of the total sales during 2011.

Our marketing and after-sales services department currently employs approximately 124 employees.

We believe that due to the unique nature of our products, the key emphasis on our marketing efforts centers on product safety, brand recognition, timely availability and pricing. As all of our products are prescription medicines, we are not allowed to advertise our products in the mass media. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, total sales and marketing expenses amounted to approximately $14.6 million, $7.4 million and $3.5 million, respectively, representing approximately 9.5%, 5.3% and 3.0%, respectively, of our total sales.

Our Research and Development Efforts

The Shandong Institute was established in 1971. The Shandong Institute is the research arm established by and directly administrated by the Shandong Provincial health department. It was the only entity approved for the research, development and production of biological and plasma-based biopharmaceutical products in Shandong Province, the second largest province in China. Since 1998, it promoted GMP management in the production process of blood products and became one of the first blood products manufacturing enterprises to obtain GMP Certification in China. In 2002, the Shandong Institute transferred all of its business and the licenses necessary to carry on its business and seconded certain of its employees to our subsidiary, Shandong Taibang. We were awarded the advanced high-tech enterprise certification by the Department of Science and Technology of Shandong Province in 2005 and 2008 and by the Ministry of Science and Technology of China in 2006. In 2007, we were admitted as a member of the Shandong Institute of Medicine and awarded the “Advanced Enterprise” accolade by the Shandong Blood Center. We were also awarded the “Advanced Technology Certification for Foreign Funded Enterprises” by the Department of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation of Shandong Province in 2008.

We employ a market driven approach to initiate research and development projects including both product and production technique development. We believe that the key to the industry revolves around (i) safety of products and (ii) maximizing the yield per unit volume of plasma. Our research and development efforts are focused around the following areas:

Our research center is located on the same premises as the factory, which is located in Tai’an City, Shandong Province. The research center is equipped with specialized equipment including advanced testing and analytical equipment, such as atomic absorptimeter, fully automated blood coagulation analyzer, high performance liquid chromatograph, gas chromatograph, radioimmunoassay analyzer, ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer, and protein chromatograph, most of which have been imported from the US, Japan, Italy, Germany and Australia. Our research and development department is comprised of about 37 researchers. All of them hold degrees in areas such as medicine, pharmacy, biology, and biochemistry. Our research center carries out development and registration of our products.

All the products we currently manufacture have been developed in-house. The following table outlines our research and development work in progress:

For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, total research and development expenses amounted to approximately $4.0 million, $2.3 million and $1.7 million, respectively, representing approximately 2.6%, 1.7% and 1.4%, respectively, of our total sales.

Our Competition

We are subject to intense competition. There are both local and overseas pharmaceutical enterprises that are engaged in the manufacture and sale of potential substitute or similar biopharmaceutical products as our products in the PRC. These competitors may have more capital, better research and development resources, manufacturing and marketing capability and experience than we do. In our industry, we compete based upon product quality, product cost, ability to produce a diverse range of products and logistical capabilities.

We believe that we have strengthened our position in the marketplace with our acquisition of Dalin and its 54% majority-owned operating subsidiary, Guizhou Taibang and a 35% equity interest in Huitian, Xi’an-based biopharmaceutical company.

Our profitability may be adversely affected if (i) competition intensifies; (ii) competitors drastically reduce prices; or (iii) PRC government’s interference on prices; or (iv) competitors develop new products or product substitutes having comparable medicinal applications or therapeutic effects which are more effective and /or less costly than those produced by us.

Other approved biopharmaceutical manufacturers in the PRC are entitled to produce many of the products produced by us. There are currently about 30 approved manufacturers of plasma-based pharmaceutical products in China. Many of these manufacturers are essentially producing the same type of products that we produce: human albumin and various types of immunoglobulin. However, due to recent Ministry of Health regulations, we believe that it is difficult for new manufacturers to enter into the industry. We believe that our major competitors in the albumin and immunoglobulin market in China are Hua Lan Biological Engineering, Shanghai Institute of Biological Products, Shanghai RAAS Blood Products Co., Ltd., Beijing Tiantan Biological Products, and Sichuan Yuanda Shuyang Pharmaceutical Co.

In addition, competition from imported products and China’s admission as a member of the WTO creates increased competition. The PRC became a member of the WTO in December 2001. Competition in the biopharmaceutical industry in the PRC will intensify generally in two respects. With lower import tariffs, we anticipate that imported biopharmaceutical products manufactured overseas may become increasingly competitive with domestically produced products in terms of pricing. We also believe that well-established foreign biopharmaceutical manufacturers may set up production facilities in the PRC and compete with domestic manufacturers directly. With the expected increased supply of competitively priced biopharmaceutical products in the PRC, we may face with increased competition from foreign biopharmaceutical products, including the types of products manufactured by US manufacturers and other manufacturers. Since 2009, we have seen a substantial increase in volume of imported human albumin in China. If the trend of importation of human albumin continues, we may face more fierce competition in domestic human albumin market.

We believe that we continued to be one of the top ranked plasma-based biopharmaceutical companies in China in 2011 based on our analysis of data regarding the approval for sales of plasma-derived products published by China National Institute for the Control of Pharmaceutical and Biological Products throughout of the year. Our past financial performance is attributable to our market position in the industry. Furthermore, while each of the plasma products related companies have their own product composition which include 3 main categories namely human albumin, human immunoglobulin and lyophilized human factor, we are currently developing lyophilized human factor products which we expect to launch in second half of 2012. We will continue to meet challenges and secure our market position by enhancing our existing products, introducing new products to meet customer demand, delivering quality products to our customers in a timely manner and maintaining our established industry reputation.

Our Intellectual Property

We hold the exclusive right to a Trademark Registration Certificate (No.5974458) issued by the PRC Industry and Commerce Administration Trademark Bureau. The class of goods on which the trademark has been approved to use include: plasma products, biological products, human drugs, biopreparate, hemoglobin, serum, injection, tablet and agent. The registration will expire in January 20, 2020.

In addition, we have registered the following domain names: www.chinabiologic.com and www.ctbb.com.cn.

Regulation

This section summarizes the major PRC regulations relating to our business.

Due to the nature of our products, we are supervised by various levels of the PRC Ministry of Health and/or SFDA. Such supervision includes the safety standards regulating our source supplies (mainly plasma), our manufacturing process through the issuance of our GMP Certification and the inspection of our finished products.

We are also subject other PRC regulations, including those relating to taxation, foreign currency exchange and dividend distributions.

Plasma Collection

Substantially all plasma donations for commercialized plasma-based biopharmaceutical products are done through plasmapheresis donation stations. Plasmapheresis donation means donors give only selected blood components — platelets, plasma, red cells, infection-fighting white cells called granulocytes, or a combination of these, depending on donors blood type and the needs of the community. Plasmapheresis stations in China are commonly used to collect plasma. In China, current regulations only allow an individual donor to donate blood in 14-day intervals, with a maximum quantity of 580ml (or about 600 gram) per donation.

The following are the regulatory requirements to establish a plasmapheresis station in China:

As a result of the overhaul by the four ministries of the State Council in May 2004, we estimate that the number of collection stations (including plasma stations) that meet the standards imposed by the PRC has been reduced from approximately 156 to approximately 120 then. Plasma stations were customarily owned and managed by the PRC health authorities. In March 2006, the Ministry of Health promulgated the Blood Collection Measures whereby the ownership and management of the plasma stations must be transferred to plasma-based biopharmaceutical companies while the regulatory supervision and administrative control remain with the government. For those plasma stations which did not complete their reform by December 31, 2006, their license to collect plasma will be revoked. As a result, all plasma stations are now having direct supply relationship with their parent fractionation facilities.

Set out below are some of the safety features at China’s collection stations:

The operation of plasma collection stations is strictly regulated by the PRC government. With the restarts of previous stations and newly built stations, the Company estimated that there are approximately 156 plasma stations in operation in China.

Importation of Blood Products

According to current Chinese regulations, the following blood products are banned from importation into China:

12


Production of Plasma-based Products

The manufacture and sale of plasma-based biopharmaceutical products is strictly regulated by the PRC government. For example, under PRC law, each variation in the packaging, dosage and concentration of medical products requires registration and approval by the SFDA. During this process the altered product is not commercially available for sale. For example, among our human albumin products only Human Albumin 20%/10ml, 20%/25ml, 20%/50ml, 10%/10ml, 10%/25ml, 10%/50ml, and 25%/50ml products are currently approved and are commercially available. Accordingly, all references, in this report, to our manufacture and sale of human albumin relate to our approved human albumin products.

The table below shows the PRC approval process for the manufacture and sale of new medicines:

Stage (Estimated Time Period) Activities
1

Planning Stage (1 month)

Prior to the development of potential new products, our Research & Development department will engage in a comprehensive review of existing medical literature, patent status and market information, including expected product demand and other competition, in order to determine the feasibility of development and production of a new product offering. Although this typically takes about 1 month to complete, this stage precedes development efforts for a new product, which could take several months or even years to complete. For products with lengthy development periods, we may be required to periodically revisit this stage to confirm the feasibility of continued development efforts.

2

Feasibility study and assumption clarification (2 months)

If we determine that development, ownership and marketing of a potential new product is possible and potentially advantageous, we proceed with development efforts. However, potential new products are typically developed in a laboratory or small batch setting, and in order to obtain approval for potential new products and to market new products, we must develop a plan for testing and producing the new product. The first step in developing such plan is a feasibility study and assumption clarification. This study is conducted following or during development of a new product, and involves a review and study of the feasibility of our technical, production and financial capabilities, production conditions and financial forecasts. We also review the feasibility of preparing and conducting a clinical study, or a Clinical Trial program, during this stage.

3

Develop scope and technique for testing the new medicine (6 months)

If following completion of a Stage 2 study we make a determination that producing and testing a potential new product is feasible and potentially advantageous, we will develop the scope and techniques for testing the potential new product. This involves confirming the sourcing of materials needed for production and marketing of the potential new product and development of the method of production, dosage design and prescription selections. During this stage, we will also develop a clinical research sample.

4

Preparation of a virus inactivation report and submission to the National Institute for the Control of Pharmaceutical and Biological Products, or NICPBP, for preliminary review (4-6 months)

If following development of testing methods for the potential new product we determine that testing can be successfully completed, we will prepare and finalize the virus inactivation method for the potential new product. We are then required to prepare a report with details on the production method and procedures and basis of quality evaluation for preliminary review by the NICPBP. NICPBP staff usually makes an onsite visit during this stage to supervise testing and re-testing of the virus inactivation process. Tested samples will be sent back to the NICPBP central office in Beijing for evaluation.

5

R&D test product information submitted to the SFDA for preliminary assessment (4-6 months)

Before the NICPBP can determine that our clinical research sampling and virus inactivation method and procedures are successful, we are required to submit our clinical research sampling and virus inactivation method and procedures to the SFDA via the provincial FDA for preliminary assessment. We also develop the parameters for a Clinical Trial program at this stage. Our program usually requires the establishment of a committee comprised of our Research and Development staff whose responsibility is to communicate with the hospitals and doctors who are invited to participate in the trial. After our submission of information to the SFDA we will become subject to random onsite sampling by the SFDA as they review our reports and procedures regarding testing of the potential product. The SFDA will usually inform us of the exact sampling date and SFDA staff will randomly select certain samples during their visit for additional testing. The SFDA will then provide us with their preliminary assessment of our new product and our related procedures. Depending on the results of its preliminary assessment the SFDA may recommend that we alter certain aspects of our reports and proposed Clinical Trial programs, or even repeat our Stage 3 and Stage 4 trials and resubmit related reports. The SFDA review process typically takes 4-6 months, but this process could take longer if we are required to amend or repeat our trials or if we amend our reports in order to obtain more a favorable preliminary assessment.

13



6

Formal application to the NICPBP for test of virus inactivation and for CDE certification of Clinical Trial (6-7 months)

Once we receive a favorable or satisfactory preliminary assessment from the SFDA, the NICPBP will continue the process begun at Stage 4. The NICPBP will conduct tests of virus inactivation based on defined medical literature and on our prescribed procedures and method of production. If the tests are successful, the NICPBP will transfer the application to the CDE for review of our prescribed procedures and method of production and the CDE may request additional information before making a determination. If the CDE is satisfied with our procedures and method of production it will certify the new product for production for Clinical Trial.

7

SFDA review of Clinical Trial program for approval (1 month)

Following provision of the CDE product certification, we must submit our Clinical Trial program (developed at Stage 5 and 6) to the SFDA for formal approval. The SFDA may request additional information regarding our proposed Clinical Trial program. If the SFDA rejects our Clinical Trial program or requires changes to any of our procedures and methods, we may be required to amend our Clinical Trial program, which may require repeating several of the processes previously conducted. The criteria for SFDA approval for Clinical Trial programs are based on Good Clinical Practice which is publicly available in the PRC.

8

Clinical Trial: Phases 1 to 4 (3 years for a new drug and 2 years for a generic drug)

Following approval of our Clinical Trial program by the SFDA, we will begin Clinical Trials of the potential new product. There are four phases to the clinical trial process and any failure of the potential new product at any of the Clinical Trial phases, could cause a significant delay in approval of the new product, or termination of the new product launch:

Phase 1: Basic clinical pharmacology and human safety evaluation studies are conducted by the Company. Prior to determining the effectiveness of our potential new product, we must determine that certain pharmacological and safety standards are met by our potential new product. These standards are set in stage 4 or according to medical literature. If the clinical trial indicates that such standards are met, we then move on to Phase 2 of the trials. If the Phase 1 standards are not met, we may be required to conduct further R&D on the potential new product, alter the new product formulation and amend the Clinical Trial program, which could require that we repeat several of the stages referenced above.

Phase 2: A preliminary exploration of the product’s therapeutic efficacy is conducted by the Company. If we determine at this stage that the potential new product is not effective, we may conduct further R&D on the potential new product, alter the new product formulation and amend the Clinical Trial program, which would require that we repeat several of the stages referenced above.

Phase 3: If we determine that the potential new product meets the required standards of Phases 1 and 2 above, we must then submit a report of the Clinical Trial results to the SFDA together with an application for trial production of the product. If the SFDA rejects application for trial production or otherwise requires a repeat of our Clinical Trials, we may be required to repeat all or a portion of our Clinical Trial program, which may require repeating several of the processes previously conducted.

Phase 4: If we receive SFDA approval to conduct a trial production of the new product, we will then conduct a larger test of approximately 2,000 samples. We will conduct this test while also conducting a new drug post- marketing study.

9

Application to the SFDA for official production permit and product certification (8-9 months)

The trial production of the potential new product will be monitored by an SFDA inspector who will also make onsite visits and assess the results of the trial production. We will also be required to prepare and submit to the SFDA a report of the trial production results by gathering statistical information obtained during the trial period. The CDE will also conduct a final review of the trial production for the potential new product. Upon satisfactory completion of the trial production, the CDE will inform the SFDA. The SFDA will then issue a permit to us for official production, the issuance of which is announced on the SFDA’s website, and copied to the NICPBP and the provincial FDA. The SFDA will also issue the new product a Good Manufacturing Practice, or GMP, certification. The provincial FDA will follow with the issuance of a provincial production permit for the new product. Although the SFDA’s criteria for final approval of new products are not publicly available in the PRC, if a manufacturer makes the adjustments to its methods and procedures recommended by the SFDA earlier on in the product approval process, it is likely that the SFDA will approve the new product for production.

10

Commercial Production

Following issuance of state and provincial production permits and certifications, we may begin production of the new product.

14


Pricing

In addition, there are regulations regarding the retail price, rather than regulations of wholesale prices, of our products. According to the “Regulations on controlling blood products” promulgated by the State Council in 1996, the price (retail) setting standard and regulatory functions reside with regional offices of the Pricing Bureau and the Ministry of Health. Presently, there are retail pricing guidelines for hospitals which sell our human albumin and immunoglobulin products to patients as prescribed by the relevant regulators in each region. The retail pricing guidelines are established based on, amongst other things, the regional living standards and the cost of production of the manufacturers. The hospitals cannot sell the products to patients at prices exceeding the highest retail price prescribed by the relevant regulators. There is no pricing guideline on the ex-factory price to the hospital and the distributors. The highest retail price guideline is revised occasionally.

Taxation

On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress of China passed a new Enterprise Income Tax Law, or the EIT Law, and on November 28, 2007, the State Council of China passed its implementing rules, which took effect on January 1, 2008. Before the implementation of the EIT Law, foreign invested enterprises, or FIEs, established in the PRC, unless granted preferential tax treatments by the PRC government, were generally subject to an earned income tax, or EIT, rate of 33.0%, which included a 30.0% state income tax and a 3.0% local income tax. The EIT Law and its implementing rules impose a unified EIT of 25.0% on all domestic-invested enterprises and FIEs, unless they qualify under certain limited exceptions. However, the EIT Law gives FIEs established before March 16, 2007, or Old FIEs, a five-year grandfather period during which they can continue to enjoy their existing preferential tax treatments. During this five-year grandfather period, Old FIEs that enjoyed tax rates lower than 25% under the original EIT Law can gradually increase their EIT rate by 2% per year until their tax rate reaches 25%. In addition, the Old FIEs that are eligible for the “two-year exemption and three-year half reduction” or “five-year exemption and five-year half-reduction” under the original EIT law, are allowed to continue enjoying their preference until these holidays expire.

In addition to the changes to the current tax structure, under the EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with “de facto management bodies” within China is considered a resident enterprise and will normally be subject to an EIT of 25% on its global income. The implementing rules define the term “de facto management bodies” as “an establishment that exercises, in substance, overall management and control over the production, business, personnel, accounting, etc., of a Chinese enterprise.” If the PRC tax authorities subsequently determine that we should be classified as a resident enterprise, then our organization’s global income will be subject to PRC income tax of 25%. For detailed discussion of PRC tax issues related to resident enterprise status, see Item 1A “Risk Factors – Risks Related to Doing Business in China – Under the Enterprise Income Tax Law, we may be classified as a ‘resident enterprise’ of China. Such classification will likely result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC stockholders.”

Foreign Currency Exchange

The principal regulation governing foreign currency exchange in China is the Foreign Currency Administration Rules (1996), as amended (2008). Under these Rules, RMB is freely convertible for current account items, such as trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, but not for capital account items, such as direct investment, loan or investment in securities outside China unless the prior approval of, and/or registration with, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange of the People’s Republic of China, or SAFE, or its local counterparts (as the case may be) is obtained.

Pursuant to the Foreign Currency Administration Rules, FIEs in China may purchase foreign currency without the approval of SAFE for trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions by providing commercial documents evidencing these transactions. They may also retain foreign exchange (subject to a cap approved by SAFE) to satisfy foreign exchange liabilities or to pay dividends. In addition, if a foreign company acquires a company in China, the acquired company will also become an FIE. However, the relevant PRC government authorities may limit or eliminate the ability of FIEs to purchase and retain foreign currencies in the future. In addition, foreign exchange transactions for direct investment, loan and investment in securities outside China are still subject to limitations and require approvals from, and/or registration with, SAFE.

Dividend Distributions

Under applicable PRC regulations, FIEs in China may pay dividends only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, a FIE in China is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profit based on PRC accounting standards each year to its general reserves until the accumulative amount of such reserves reach 50% of its registered capital. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. The board of directors of a FIE also has the discretion to allocate a portion of its after-tax profits to staff welfare and bonus funds, which may not be distributed to equity owners except in the event of liquidation.

In addition, under the EIT law, the Notice of the State Administration of Taxation on Negotiated Reduction of Dividends and Interest Rates, which was issued on January 29, 2008, the Arrangement between the PRC and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region on the Avoidance of Double Taxation and Prevention of Fiscal Evasion, or the Double Taxation Treaty, which became effective on December 8, 2006, and the Notice of the State Administration of Taxation Regarding Interpretation and Recognition of Beneficial Owners under Tax Treaties, which became effective on October 27, 2009, dividends from our PRC operating subsidiary, Taibang Biotech, paid to us through our Hong Kong subsidiary, Taibang Holdings, may be subject to a withholding tax at a rate of 10%, or at a rate of 5% if Taibang Holdings is considered a “beneficial owner” that is generally engaged in substantial business activities and entitled to treaty benefits under the Double Taxation Treaty.

Our Employees

As of December 31, 2011, we employed approximately 1,499 full-time employees, including Shandong Taibang and Dalin and all of their subsidiaries and Taibang Medical, of which approximately 99 were seconded to us by the Shandong Institute.

We believe that we maintain a satisfactory working relationship with our employees and we have not experienced any significant labor disputes or any difficulties in recruiting staff for our operations. As required by applicable Chinese law, we have entered into employment contracts with most of our officers, managers and employees. The PRC enacted a new Labor Contract Law, which became effective on January 1, 2008. We have updated our employment contracts and employee handbook and are in compliance with the new law. We will work with the employees and the labor union to insure that our employees obtain the full benefit of the law. We do not anticipate that changes in the law will materially impact our balance sheet and cash flows.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information included in this report, before making an investment decision. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could suffer. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. You should read the section entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” above for a discussion of what types of statements are forward-looking statements, as well as the significance of such statements in the context of this report.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

We face risks related to general domestic and global economic conditions and to the credit crisis. Disruptions in the capital and credit markets related to the current national and worldwide financial crisis, which may continue indefinitely or intensify, could adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, or those of our customers, suppliers and creditors.

We currently generate sufficient operating cash flows, which combined with access to the credit markets, provide us with significant discretionary funding capacity. However, the current uncertainty arising out of domestic and global economic conditions, including the disruption in credit markets, may impact our ability to manage normal relationships with our customers, suppliers and creditors. The disruptions in the capital and credit markets may continue indefinitely or intensify, and adversely impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, or those of our customers, suppliers and creditors. Disruptions in the capital and credit markets as a result of uncertainty, changing or increased regulation, reduced alternatives or failures of significant financial institutions could adversely affect our access to liquidity needed to conduct or expand our businesses or conduct acquisitions or make other discretionary investments. Such disruptions may also adversely impact the capital needs of our customers and suppliers, which, in turn, could adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

In addition, the demand for our products is largely affected by the general economic conditions in China as our products are still not affordable to many patients. As China’s economy grows, we expect more Chinese people will become consumers of medical treatments and procedures, including procedures requiring human plasma. However, we expect that the continuation of the global economic slowdown may result in slower economic growth in China and an unfavorable economic environment which in turn may make our products less affordable to more patients and result in an overall decreased demand for our products. Such reductions and disruptions could have a material adverse effect on our business operations.

In order to grow at the pace expected by management, we will require additional capital to support our long-term business plan. If we are unable to obtain additional capital in future years, we may be unable to proceed with our long-term business plan and we may be forced to curtail or cease our operations or further business expansion.

We will require additional working capital to support our long-term business plan, which includes identifying suitable targets for horizontal or vertical mergers or acquisitions, so as to enhance the overall productivity and benefit from economies of scale. Our working capital requirements and the cash flow provided by future operating activities, if any, will vary greatly from quarter to quarter, depending on the volume of business during the period and payment terms with our customers. We may not be able to obtain adequate levels of additional financing, whether through equity financing, debt financing or other sources, especially in light of the global financial crisis and the market downturn. To raise funds, we may need to issue new equities or bonds which could result in additional dilution to our shareholders and investors. Additional financings could result in significant dilution to our earnings per share or the issuance of securities with rights superior to our current outstanding securities or contain covenants that would restrict our operations and strategy. In addition, we may grant registration rights to investors purchasing our equity or debt securities in the future. If we are unable to raise additional financing, we may be unable to implement our long-term business plan, develop or enhance our products and services, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures on a timely basis. In addition, a lack of additional financing could force us to substantially curtail or cease operations.

16


We have a significant amount of debt, which could have negative consequences to us.

We have a significant amount of debt. As of December 31, 2011, we had, on a consolidated basis, approximately $11.0 million principal amount of indebtedness outstanding. Our substantial indebtedness could have important consequences, including:

Our ability to pay interest on our indebtedness and to satisfy our other debt obligations will depend upon, among other things, our future operating performance and cash flow and our ability to refinance indebtedness when necessary. Each of these factors is, to a large extent, dependent on general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors beyond our control. If in the future we cannot generate sufficient cash from operations to make scheduled payments on our indebtedness or to meet our liquidity needs or other obligations, we will need to refinance our existing debt, obtain additional financing or sell assets. We cannot assure you that we will be able to renegotiate or refinance any of our debt on commercially reasonable terms or at all. In addition, our interest expense may increase if general economic conditions result in an increasing interest rate environment. We cannot assure you that our business will generate cash flow, or that we will be able to obtain funding sufficient to satisfy our debt service requirements.

Our cash flow could be negatively affected as a result of our extension of relatively long payment terms to customers that we believe are credit worthy.

As is customary in our industry, we extend relatively long payment terms (up to six months) to customers that we believe are credit worthy. The dollar amount of our accounts receivable, net of our allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 was $16,757,368, $9,922,111 and $1,767,076, respectively. The bad debt credit for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 was $19,611, $57,624 and $13,089, respectively. Although we attempt to establish appropriate reserves for our receivables, those reserves may not prove to be adequate in view of actual levels of bad debts. The failure of our customers to pay us timely would negatively affect our working capital, which could in turn adversely affect our cash flow.

If the PRC government bans or limits plasma-based biopharmaceutical products, our operations, revenues and profitability would be adversely affected.

The principal raw materials of our existing and planned biopharmaceutical products is human source plasma, which, due to its unique nature, is subject to various quality and safety control issues which include, but are not limited to, contaminations and blood-borne diseases. In addition, limitations of current technology pose biological hazards inherent in plasma that have yet to be discovered which could result in a wide spread epidemic due to blood infusion. The primary law that regulates plasma products in China is the PRC Pharmaceutical Law, the Implementation Rules on the PRC Pharmaceutical Law and the Regulations on the Administration of Blood Products. These rules and regulations require entities producing blood products to strictly comply with certain hygienic standards and specifications promulgated by the government. In the event that human plasma is discovered to be noncompliant with the government’s hygienic standards and specifications, the health department may revoke the registration and/or the approval of the blood product, or otherwise limit the use of such blood product. If the PRC government bans or limits plasma-based biopharmaceutical products, our operations, revenues and profitability would be adversely affected.

If the plasma we source is found to be contaminated, our operation, revenues and profitability would be adversely affected.

We currently source plasma mainly from human donations to our plasma stations in Shandong, Guangxi and Guizhou Provinces. If any of our human donors is infected with certain diseases, then the plasma from such donor may be infected. If such contaminated plasma is not appropriately screened out, our entire plasma source for the relevant collection station may become contaminated. If the plasma from our collection stations is found to be contaminated, our operation, revenues and profitability would be adversely affected.

If our supply of quality plasma is interrupted, our results of operations and profitability will be adversely affected.

The production of plasma-based biopharmaceutical products relies on the supply of plasma of suitable quality. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, the cost of plasma used by us for production accounted for approximately 67%, 73% and 83%, respectively, of total production cost. The supply and market prices of plasma may be adversely affected by factors such as regulatory restrictions, weather conditions or outbreak of diseases which would impact our costs of production. We may not be able to pass on any resulting increase in costs to our customers and therefore any substantial fluctuation in supply or market prices of plasma may adversely affect our results of operations and profitability.

17


The biopharmaceutical industry in the PRC is strictly regulated and changes in such regulations may have an adverse effect on our business.

The biopharmaceutical industry in the PRC is strictly regulated by the government. The regulatory regime, such as administrative approval of medicines and production approvals, comprises of series of regulations and administrative rules. The PRC regulatory authorities may amend such regulations and administrative rules and promulgate new regulations and administrative rules from time to time. Changes in these regulations and administrative rules could have a significant impact on our business. Such changes may have any adverse impact on our business.

We may not be able to carry on our business if we lose any of the permits and licenses required by the PRC Government in order to carry on our business.

All pharmaceutical manufacturing and distribution enterprises in the PRC are required to obtain from various PRC governmental authorities certain permits and licenses, including, in the case of manufacturing enterprises, a Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Permit and, in the case of distribution enterprises, a Pharmaceutical Distribution Permit.

We have obtained permits and licenses and the GMP certificates, required for the manufacturing and sales of our pharmaceutical products. These permits and licenses held by us are subject to periodic renewal and/or reassessment by the relevant PRC Government authorities and the standards of compliance required in relation thereto may from time to time be subject to changes. We intend to apply for the renewal of such permits and licenses when required by applicable laws and regulations. Any changes in compliance standards, or any new laws or regulations that may prohibit or render it more restrictive for us to conduct our business or increase our compliance costs may adversely affect our operations or profitability. Any failure by us to obtain such renewals may have a material adverse effect on the operation of our business. In addition, we may not be able to carry on business without such permits and business licenses being renewed.

If we do not receive PRC governmental approval to increase the retail prices of certain of our biopharmaceutical products our revenues may be adversely affected.

Retail prices of certain of our biopharmaceutical products in the PRC are subject to the control of the relevant central and provincial price administration authorities. The actual price for any given price-controlled product set by manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers cannot exceed the price ceiling imposed in accordance with the applicable government price control rules. Pharmaceutical products which are included in China’s National (Medical) Insurance Catalogue, or the NIC, administered at the central or provincial level are subject to price control by the National Reform and Development Commission of China, or the NDRC, China’s pricing authority.

The 2009 NIC was published by China’s Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security in November 2009 as part of China’s healthcare reform, to make more drugs affordable to PRC consumers. The NIC is China’s official drug reimbursement list for its universal healthcare system, which the PRC government expected to cover 90% of PRC citizens as at the 2010 year end. The 2009 NIC features 2,151 drugs, categorized as Class A (fully covered) or Class B (partially covered). Five of our principal products, Human Albumin Human Immunoglobulin for intravenous injection, Human Rabies Immunoglobulin, Human Tetanus Immunoglobulin, Human Immunoglobulin have been included in the 2009 NIC as Class B drugs and are subject to national price control by the NDRC.

The 2009 NIC was expected to be fully implemented in 2010, but has been postponed. Once the 2009 NIC is fully implemented, the price of our included products may not be increased at our discretion above the relevant controlled retail price ceiling without prior governmental approval. This, in turn, may affect the ex-factory prices set by us for our products and we therefore do not have unfettered freedom to maximize our profits. It is uncertain whether we will be able to obtain necessary approvals to increase the price of any of our products.

If we are unable to adequately monitor our plasma stations, our plasma supply may be tainted and we will be subject to sanctions by the government which would have a material adverse effect on our business.

As part of the industry reform initiative by the Chinese government, in 2006 we acquired the assets of five of the six then existing plasma stations in Shandong Province through our wholly owned subsidiaries, Xia Jin Plasma Company, the Qi He Plasma Company, the He Ze Plasma Company, the Zhang Qiu Plasma Company and the Liao Cheng Plasma Company. We received permits to operate these subsidiaries in January 2007. In April 2007, we acquired the assets of two additional plasma stations, one through Huan Jiang Plasma Company and the other through Fang Cheng Plasma Company, which is then 80% owned by Shandong Taibang and 20% owned by Feng Lin, an unrelated third party, which we subsequently acquired in January 2010. We obtained necessary permits and commenced their operation in July and August 2007, respectively. In 2010, we established two plasma stations, Yi Shui Plasma Company, which begun operation in December 2010, and Ning Yang Plasma Company, which begun operation in July 2011. Guizhou Taibang, the main operating subsidiary of Dalin, is the 85% owner of the two plasma stations in Guizhou province, after closure of its 5 plasma stations in compliance with Guizhou Provincial Health Department’s plan in July 2011. Huitian, the 35% minority owned affiliated company by the Company, has three plasma stations operating in Shaanxi province. While we monitor our blood plasma intake procedures through frequent unscheduled inspections of our stations, there remains a risk that our blood supply may become tainted during the collection process. Our blood supply may become tainted if we accept blood from donors whose blood shows any irregular findings including HIV, Hepatitis C and liver disease. We pre-screen all donors in order to ensure that these diseases are not present. If our blood supply becomes tainted, the consequences for our business could be severe. We could be subject to civil liability from suits brought by consumers and to criminal liability and loss of our registration if we are found by the government to have been criminally negligent.

Our operations, sales, profit and cash flow will be adversely affected if our albumin products fail inspection or are delayed by regulators.

Each batch of our albumin products requires inspection by Chinese government regulators before we can ship it to our customers. The SFDA has a quality standard which considers, among other things, the appearance, packing capacity, thermal stability, pH value, protein content and percentage of purity of the product. In order to pass inspection, our plasma must be tested negative for any blood irregularities, including Hepatitis C, HIV and liver disease. The plasma must be packaged in 25 to 30 separate 600g bags and boxed with a packing list and labeled in consistent with computer records. The plasma must then be stored at -20°C as soon as possible after collection to ensure that it will congeal within 6 hours. Government regulators usually take more than one month to inspect a batch of plasma products. The process begins when the regulator randomly selects samples of our products and delivers them to the National Institute for the Control of Pharmaceutical and Biological Products, or the NICBPB, for testing, and the process ends when the products are given final approval by the NICBPB. In the event that the regulators delay the approval of our products, change the requirements in such a way that we are unable to comply with those requirements, our operations, sales, profit and cash flow will be adversely affected.

We rely on a Secondment Agreement with the Shandong Institute, which is expected to terminate upon the future privatization of the Shandong Institute, for over 25% of our Shandong Taibang employees. If the Secondment Agreement is breached or terminated, it could have an adverse effect on our operations and on our financial results.

The Shandong Institute has provided us with approximately 99 of our employees out of a total of approximately 1,499 employees, pursuant to a secondment agreement, or Secondment Agreement, dated October 28, 2002, between Shandong Taibang and the Shandong Institute. Pursuant to the Secondment Agreement, we are responsible for the salaries of these employees, as well as for their social benefits such as insurance. Our Secondment Agreement with the Shandong Institute will expire on the sooner to occur of October 2032 or upon the privatization of the Shandong Institute, which was originally expected to occur before the end of 2008. However, the completion of privatization of Shandong Institute has been further delayed indefinitely due to slower action taken by the Shandong Ministry of Health in implementing the privatization plan. Upon expiration or termination of the Secondment Agreement, we plan to hire the seconded employees directly. However, we cannot be sure that all of the employees will accept our employment offers at that time. Guang Li Pang, Shandong Taibang’s Deputy Chief Executive Officer, Yun Hua Gao and Dian Cong Liu, our Senior Technical Advisors are employed through the Secondment Agreement. Although none of our seconded employees have indicated that they do not plan to continue working for our Company after the privatization, if the Secondment Agreement is terminated or expires and we are unable to hire those employees or replacement employees on time, our operations, as well as our financial results, may suffer.

If the distributors who we rely on do not purchase our products, our business and results of operations will be adversely affected.

We sell almost half of our products in China through our network of about 263 distributors located in about 30 provinces and municipal cities throughout China. While we have established working relationships with many of our distributors and strictly regulate their sales and marketing activities by annual distribution agreements, there are no restrictions in these distribution agreements preventing our distributors from also supplying products produced by our competitors. Our own marketing and sales staff work to develop and maintain relationships with our distributors, but there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain such relationships. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, direct sales to distributors represented approximately 37.2%, 48.9% and 67.3%, respectively, of our total revenues. If a number of our distributors cease to purchase our products and we are unable to find suitable replacements, our business and results of operations will be adversely affected.

Our inability to successfully research and develop new biological pharmaceutical products could have an adverse effect on our future growth.

We believe that the successful development of biological pharmaceutical products can be affected by many factors. Products that appear to be promising in the early phases of research and development may fail to be commercialized for various reasons, including the failure to obtain the necessary regulatory approvals. In addition, the research and development cycles for new medicine for which we must obtain a Certificate of New Medicine from the PRC Ministry of Health, is a relatively lengthy process. In our experience, the process of conducting research and various tests on new products before obtaining a Certificate of New Medicine and subsequent procedures may take approximately three to five years. There is no assurance that our future research and development projects will be successful or that they will be completed within the anticipated time frame or budget. Also, there is no guarantee that we will receive the necessary approvals from relevant authorities for the production of our newly developed products. Even if such products could be successfully commercialized, there is no assurance that they will be accepted by the market as anticipated.

Our financial position and operations may be materially and adversely affected if our product liability insurance does not sufficiently cover our liabilities.

Under current PRC laws, manufacturers and vendors of defective products in the PRC may incur liability for loss and injury caused by such products. Pursuant to the General Principles of the Civil Law of the PRC, or the PRC Civil Law, which became effective in 1987, a defective product which causes property damage or physical injury to any person may subject the manufacturer or vendor of such product to civil liability.

19


In 1993, the PRC promulgated the Product Quality Law of the PRC, or the Product Quality Law, which was revised in 2000. The Product Quality Law was enacted to protect the rights and interests of end-users and consumers and to strengthen the supervision and control of the quality of products. Under the Product Quality Law, manufacturers who produce defective products may be subject to fines and required to cease production, and in severe cases, be subject to criminal liability and may have their business licenses revoked.

In 1993, the Law of the PRC on the Protection of the Rights and Interests of Consumers, or the Consumers’ Rights Law, was promulgated to further protect the legal rights and interests of consumers in connection with the purchase or use of goods and services. All businesses, including our business, must observe and comply with the Consumers’ Rights Law.

We maintain two product liability insurances for sales in the PRC for Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang’s products in the amount of RMB 20 million (approximately $3.1 million) each. Although no one has filed any claims in relation to the use of our pharmaceutical products, our financial position and operations may be materially and adversely affected, if our insurance coverage is insufficient to cover a successful claim.

We may encounter increased competition from both local and overseas pharmaceutical enterprises as a result of a relaxation of the PRC regulatory approval process for plasma-based biopharmaceutical products or a relaxation of international trade restrictions. A change in our competitive environment could adversely affect our profitability and prospects.

Our continued ability to compete depends on the development of the plasma-based biopharmaceutical manufacturing industry in China. The plasma-based biopharmaceutical manufacturing industry in China is highly regulated by both provincial and central governments. Prior to engaging in the collection and production of plasma products, companies such as ours are required to obtain collection permits from the central health department and production permits and certificates for each new product formulation from the various provincial food and drug authorities. We have the advantage of being already approved by the state to collect plasma from human donors and manufacture and sell plasma-based biopharmaceutical products in Shandong Province, as well as in all other provinces in China, and our research and development department has become familiar with the provincial product approval process. However, although we believe that the regulatory requirements pose a competitive barrier to entry into the biopharmaceutical industry, over time there may be new entrants. If the government relaxes these restrictions and allow more competitors to enter into the market, these competitors may have more capital, better research and development resources, manufacturing and marketing capability and experience than us. Our profitability may be adversely affected if (i) competition intensifies; (ii) competitors drastically reduce prices; or (iii) competitors develop new products having comparable medicinal applications or therapeutic effects which are more effective or less costly than those produced by us.

In addition we expect that competition from imported products will increase as a result of a trend towards lower import tariffs and China’s admission as a member of the WTO in December 2001. We believe that lower import tariffs will result in more affordable pricing for imported biopharmaceutical products manufactured overseas as compared to domestically manufactured products such as ours. In addition, China’s membership in the WTO makes it more accessible to foreign biopharmaceutical manufacturers who may wish to set up production facilities in the PRC and compete directly with domestic manufacturers. The expected increased supply of both domestic and foreign competitively priced biopharmaceutical products in the PRC will result in increased competition. There is no assurance that our strategies to remain competitive can be implemented successfully as scheduled or at all. Our inability to remain competitive may have an adverse effect on our profitability and prospects.

We depend heavily on key personnel, and turnover of key employees and senior management could harm our business.

Our success, to a certain extent, is attributable to the expertise and experience of our senior management and key research and technical personnel, including Chao-Ming Zhao, our Chief Executive Officer and Y. Tristan Kuo, our Chief Financial Officer, who carry out key functions in our operation. If we lose the service of any of our senior management or key research or technical personnel or fail to attract additional personnel with suitable experience and qualification, our business operations and research capability may be adversely affected.

Future acquisitions may have an adverse effect on our ability to manage our business.

Selective acquisitions form part of our strategy to further expand our business. If we are presented with appropriate opportunities, we may acquire additional companies, products or technologies. Future acquisitions and the subsequent integration of new companies into ours would require significant attention from our management. Our company has little experience with integrating newly acquired businesses. Potential problems encountered by each organization during mergers and acquisitions would be unique, posing additional risks to the company. The diversion of our management’s attention and any difficulties encountered in any integration process could have an adverse effect on our ability to manage our business. Future acquisitions would expose us to potential risks, including risks associated with the assimilation of new operations, technologies and personnel, unforeseen or hidden liabilities, the diversion of resources from our existing businesses and technologies, the inability to generate sufficient revenue to offset the costs and expenses of acquisitions, and potential loss of, or harm to, relationships with employees, customers and suppliers as a result of integration of new businesses.

We may lose our competitive advantage and our operations may suffer if we fail to prevent the loss or misappropriation of, or disputes over, our intellectual property.

None of our products are currently covered by patents. Our trademark “CTBB” is registered with the PRC Industry and Commerce Administration Trademark Bureau for our use until January 20, 2012in the labeling of human-use medicine, biopreparate and blood products, pursuant to the registration. We plan to apply for patents for our manufacturing processes. The patent application will be subject to approval from the relevant PRC authorities. We may not be able to successfully obtain the approval of the PRC authorities for our patent applications. Furthermore, third parties may assert claims to our proprietary procedures, technologies and systems. These proprietary procedures, technologies and systems are important to our business as they allow us to maintain our competitive edge over our competitors.

While we are not aware of any infringement on our intellectual property and we have not been notified by any third party that we are infringing on their intellectual property, our ability to compete successfully and to achieve future revenue growth will depend, in significant part, on our ability to protect our proprietary technology and operate without infringing upon the intellectual property rights of others. The legal regime in China for the protection of intellectual property rights is still at its early stage of development. Intellectual property protection became a national effort in China in 1979 when China adopted its first statute on the protection of trademarks. Since then, China has adopted its Patent Law, Trademark Law and Copyright Law and promulgated related regulations such as Regulation on Computer Software Protection, Regulation on the Protection of Layout Designs of Integrated Circuits and Regulation on Internet Domain Names. China has also acceded to various international treaties and conventions in this area, such as the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property, Patent Cooperation Treaty, Madrid Agreement and its Protocol Concerning the International Registration of Marks. In addition, when China became a party to the World Trade Organization in 2001, China amended many of its laws and regulations to comply with the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights. Despite many laws and regulations promulgated and other efforts made by China over the years with a view to tightening up its regulation and protection of intellectual property rights, private parties may not enjoy intellectual property rights in China to the same extent as they would in many Western countries, including the United States, and enforcement of such laws and regulations in China have not achieved the levels reached in those countries. Both the administrative agencies and the court system in China are not well-equipped to deal with violations or handle the nuances and complexities between compliant technological innovation and noncompliant infringement.

We rely on confidentiality agreements with our management and employees to protect our confidential proprietary information. However, the protection of our intellectual properties may be compromised as a result of:

Any of these events or occurrences may have a material adverse effect on our operations and the measures that we have put into place to protect our intellectual property rights may not be sufficient. Litigation to enforce our intellectual property rights could result in substantial costs and may not be successful. If we are not able to successfully defend our intellectual property rights, we might lose rights to technology that we need to conduct and develop our business. This may seriously harm our business, operating results and financial condition, and enable our competitors to use our intellectual property to compete against us.

Furthermore, if third parties claim that our products infringe their patents or other intellectual property rights, we may be required to devote substantial resources to defend against such claims. If we are unsuccessful in defending against such infringement claims, we may be required to pay damages, modify our products or suspend the production and sale of such products. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to modify our products on commercially reasonable terms.

A disruption in the supply of utilities, fire or other calamity at our manufacturing plant would disrupt production of our products and adversely affect our sales.

Our products are manufactured at our production facilities located in Tai’an, Shandong Province and Guiyang, Guizhou Province in the PRC. While we have not in the past experienced any calamities which disrupted production, any disruption in the supply of utilities, in particular, electricity or power supply, or any outbreak of fire, flood or other calamity resulting in significant damage at our facilities would severely affect our production and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We maintain insurance policies covering losses with respect to damages to our properties and products. We do not have insurance coverage for inventories of raw materials or business interruption. There is no assurance that our insurance would be sufficient to cover all of our potential losses.

There are allegations of past criminal conduct against certain members of our Board of Directors and a significant employee. Our business and results of operations could be adversely affected if any of these allegations are proven true.

On January 26, 2010, certain allegations of fraud and criminal activity involving smuggling and related activities allegedly engaged in prior to 2005 by the CEO of the Company’s primary operating subsidiary, Shandong Taibang, and by a relative of one of our directors surfaced on certain financial websites. On January 27, 2010, in response to these allegations, the Company’s board of directors established a special independent subcommittee comprised of the Company’s independent directors, Mr. Sean Shao and Dr. Tong Jun Lin (who were later joined by new director Dr. Xiangmin Cui), or the Special Committee, to investigate the allegations with the assistance of a reputable international firm, and report its findings to the board of directors as soon as practicable. On March 1, 2010, the Special Committee retained O’Melveny & Myers LLP, an international law firm, to advise the Special Committee and to assist in the investigation of the allegations. On November 26, 2010, the Special Committee reported its findings to the Company’s board of directors, a summary of which the Company disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission on December 3, 2010. The Special Committee could not find support for a majority of the allegations, however, the Special Committee found support that Mr. Ze Qin Lin, the husband of our former director Ms. Lin Ling Li, was imprisoned in China in connection with smuggling offenses, and with respect to the allegation that Mr. Tung Lam, the Chief Executive Officer of one of our primary operating subsidiaries, Shandong Taibang, and spouse of Mrs. Siu Ling Chan, our board chair, was previously known as Mr. Lin Ziping and was imprisoned for smuggling offenses in China, the Special Committee found evidence supporting Mr. Lam’s denial of the allegation, as well as conflicting evidence with respect to this claim. As a result, the Special Committee concluded that it could neither confirm nor exclude the allegation against Mr. Lam. The findings of the Special Committee regarding Mr. Lin and its inability to reach a conclusion regarding the allegations against Mr. Lam may make investing in our Company unattractive to certain investors and may cause existing investors to end their investment in the Company, which may cause our stock price to decline.

If we do not maintain strong financial controls, investor confidence in us may decline and our stock price may decline as a result.

The SEC as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or SOX 404, adopted rules requiring every public company to include a management report on such company’s internal control over financial reporting in its annual report, which must also contain management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. In addition, the independent registered public accounting firm auditing the financial statements must also attest to the operating effectiveness of the company’s internal controls.

A report of our management and attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm is included under Item 9A of this report. Our management has concluded that that our internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011 were effective. However, financial controls have become increasingly complex due to constant evolution in accounting standards and principles and changes in disclosure rules. For example, we identified material weaknesses related to review controls on the accounting for income taxes and derivative instrument valuation as described under Item 9A of our annual report in form 10-K for fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, which were subsequently remediated in our fiscal year 2011 as described under Item 9A below. However, there is no guarantee that these remedies will continue to be effective. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could result in us not being able to accurately report our financial results, prevent or detect fraud or provide timely and reliable financial and other information pursuant to the reporting obligations we have as a public company, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. This could reduce investors’ confidence in our reported financial information, which in turn could result in lawsuits being filed against us by our stockholders, otherwise harm our reputation or negatively impact the trading price of our common stock.

RISKS RELATED TO DOING BUSINESS IN CHINA

Changes in China’s political or economic situation could harm us and our operating results.

Economic reforms adopted by the Chinese government have had a positive effect on the economic development of the country, but the government could change these economic reforms or any of the legal systems at any time. This could either benefit or damage our operations and profitability. Some of the things that could have this effect are:

The Chinese economy differs from the economies of most countries belonging to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, or OECD, in many ways. For example, state-owned enterprises still constitute a large portion of the Chinese economy, and weak corporate governance and the lack of a flexible currency exchange policy still prevail in China. As a result of these differences, we may not develop in the same way or at the same rate as might be expected if the Chinese economy was similar to those of the OECD member countries.

Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system could limit the legal protections available to you and us.

We conduct substantially all of our business through our operating subsidiaries in the PRC. Our operating subsidiaries are generally subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investments in China and, in particular, laws applicable to FIEs. The PRC legal system is based on written statutes, and prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. Since 1979, a series of new PRC laws and regulations have significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, since the PRC legal system continues to evolve rapidly, the interpretations of many laws, regulations, and rules are not always uniform, and enforcement of these laws, regulations, and rules involve uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to you and us. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention. In addition, most of our executive officers and directors are residents of China and not of the United States, and substantially all the assets of these persons are located outside the United States. As a result, it could be difficult for investors to affect service of process in the United States or to enforce a judgment obtained in the United States against our Chinese operations and subsidiary.

22


You may have difficulty enforcing judgments against us.

Most of our assets are located outside of the United States and most of our current operations are conducted in the PRC. In addition, most of our directors and officers are nationals and residents of countries other than the United States. A substantial portion of the assets of these persons is located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officers and directors, most of whom are not residents in the United States and the substantial majority of whose assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts. Our counsel as to PRC law has advised us that the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under the PRC Civil Procedures Law. Courts in China may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedures Law based on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on reciprocity between jurisdictions. China does not have any treaties or other arrangements that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments with the United States. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, courts in the PRC will not enforce a foreign judgment against us or our directors and officers if they decide that the judgment violates basic principles of PRC law or national sovereignty, security, or the public interest. So it is uncertain whether a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States.

The PRC government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities.

The PRC government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, import and export tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, property, and other matters. We believe that our operations in China are in material compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. However, the central or local governments of the jurisdictions in which we operate may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations.

Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof and could require us to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese properties or joint ventures.

Future inflation in China may inhibit our ability to conduct business in China.

In recent years, the Chinese economy has experienced periods of rapid expansion and highly fluctuating rates of inflation. During the past ten years, the rate of inflation in China has been as high as 5.9% and as low as -0.8% . These factors have led to the adoption by the Chinese government, from time to time, of various corrective measures designed to restrict the availability of credit or regulate growth and contain inflation. High inflation may in the future cause the Chinese government to impose controls on credit and/or prices, or to take other action, which could inhibit economic activity in China, and thereby harm the market for our products and our company.

Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive and use our sales effectively.

The majority of our sales will be settled in RMB, and any future restrictions on currency exchanges may limit our ability to use revenue generated in RMB to fund any future business activities outside China or other payments in U.S. dollars. Although the Chinese government introduced regulations in 1996 to allow greater convertibility of the RMB for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain, including primarily the restriction that FIEs may only buy, sell or remit foreign currencies after providing valid commercial documents, at those banks in China authorized to conduct foreign exchange business. In addition, conversion of RMB for capital account items, including direct investment and loans, is subject to governmental approval in China, and companies are required to open and maintain separate foreign exchange accounts for capital account items. We cannot be certain that the Chinese regulatory authorities will not impose more stringent restrictions on the convertibility of the RMB.

Fluctuations in exchange rates could adversely affect our business and the value of our securities.

The value of our common stock will be indirectly affected by the foreign exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and RMB and between those currencies and other currencies in which our sales may be denominated. Appreciation or depreciation in the value of the RMB relative to the U.S. dollar would affect our financial results reported in U.S. dollar terms without giving effect to any underlying change in our business or results of operations. Fluctuations in the exchange rate will also affect the relative value of any dividend we issue that will be exchanged into U.S. dollars, as well as earnings from, and the value of, any U.S. dollar-denominated investments we make in the future.

23


Since July 2005, the RMB has no longer been pegged to the U.S. dollar. Although the People’s Bank of China regularly intervenes in the foreign exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange rate, the RMB may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar in the medium to long term. Moreover, it is possible that in the future PRC authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in the RMB exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market.

Very limited hedging transactions are available in China to reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. To date, we have not entered into any hedging transactions. While we may enter into hedging transactions in the future, the availability and effectiveness of these transactions may be limited, and we may not be able to successfully hedge our exposure at all. In addition, our foreign currency exchange losses may be magnified by PRC exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert RMB into foreign currencies.

Currently, some of our raw materials and major equipment are imported. In the event that the U.S. dollars appreciate against RMB, our costs will increase. If we cannot pass the resulting cost increases on to our customers, our profitability and operating results will suffer. In addition, if our sales to international customers grow, we will be increasingly subject to the risk of foreign currency depreciation.

Restrictions under PRC law on our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to make dividends and other distributions could materially and adversely affect our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could benefit our business, pay dividends to you, and otherwise fund and conduct our business.

Substantially all of our sales are earned by our PRC subsidiaries. However, PRC regulations restrict the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to make dividends and other payments to their offshore parent companies. PRC legal restrictions permit payments of dividends by our PRC subsidiaries only out of their accumulated after-tax profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Our PRC subsidiaries are also required under PRC laws and regulations to allocate at least 10% of their annual after-tax profits determined in accordance with PRC GAAP to a statutory general reserve fund until the amounts in said fund reaches 50% of their registered capital. Allocations to these statutory reserve funds can only be used for specific purposes and are not transferable to us in the form of loans, advances, or cash dividends. Any limitations on the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to transfer funds to us could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends and otherwise fund and conduct our business.

Failure to comply with PRC regulations relating to the establishment of offshore special purpose companies by PRC residents may subject our PRC resident stockholders to personal liability, limit our ability to acquire PRC companies or to inject capital into our PRC subsidiaries, limit our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to distribute profits to us or otherwise materially adversely affect us.

In October 2005, SAFE issued the Notice on Relevant Issues in the Foreign Exchange Control over Financing and Return Investment Through Special Purpose Companies by Residents Inside China, generally referred to as Circular 75, which required PRC residents to register with the competent local SAFE branch before establishing or acquiring control over an offshore special purpose company, or SPV, for the purpose of engaging in an equity financing outside of China on the strength of domestic PRC assets originally held by those residents. Amendments to registrations made under Circular 75 are required in connection with any increase or decrease of capital, transfer of shares, mergers and acquisitions, equity investment or creation of any security interest in any assets located in China to guarantee offshore obligations. In the case of an SPV which was established, and which acquired a related domestic company or assets, before the implementation date of Circular 75, a retroactive SAFE registration was required Failure to comply with the requirements of Circular 75 may result in fines and other penalties under PRC laws for evasion of applicable foreign exchange restrictions. Any such failure could also result in the SPV’s affiliates being impeded or prevented from distributing their profits and the proceeds from any reduction in capital, share transfer or liquidation to the SPV, or from engaging in other transfers of funds into or out of China.

We have asked our stockholders who are PRC residents as defined in Circular 75 to register with the relevant branch of SAFE, as currently required, in connection with their equity interests in us and our acquisitions of equity interests in our PRC subsidiaries. However, we cannot provide any assurances that they can obtain the above SAFE registrations required by Circular 75. Moreover, because of uncertainty over how Circular 75 will be interpreted and implemented, and how or whether SAFE will apply it to us, we cannot predict how it will affect our business operations or future strategies. For example, our present and prospective PRC subsidiaries’ ability to conduct foreign exchange activities, such as the remittance of dividends and foreign currency-denominated borrowings, may be subject to compliance with Circular 75 by our PRC resident beneficial holders.

In addition, such PRC residents may not always be able to complete the necessary registration procedures required by Circular 75. We also have little control over either our present or prospective direct or indirect stockholders or the outcome of such registration procedures. A failure by our PRC resident beneficial holders or future PRC resident stockholders to comply with Circular 75, if SAFE requires it, could subject these PRC resident beneficial holders to fines or legal sanctions, restrict our overseas or cross-border investment activities, limit our subsidiaries’ ability to make distributions or pay dividends or affect our ownership structure, which could adversely affect our business and prospects.

We may be unable to complete a business combination transaction efficiently or on favorable terms due to complicated merger and acquisition regulations which became effective on September 8, 2006.

On August 9, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or CSRC, promulgated the Regulation on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Companies by Foreign Investors, which became effective on September 8, 2006. This new regulation, among other things, governs the approval process by which a PRC company may participate in an acquisition of assets or equity interests. Depending on the structure of the transaction, the new regulation will require the PRC parties to make a series of applications and supplemental applications to the government agencies. In some instances, the application process may require the presentation of economic data concerning a transaction, including appraisals of the target business and evaluations of the acquirer, which are designed to allow the government to assess the transaction. Government approvals will have expiration dates by which a transaction must be completed and reported to the government agencies. Compliance with the new regulations is likely to be more time consuming and expensive than in the past and the government can now exert more control over the combination of two businesses. Accordingly, due to the new regulation, our ability to engage in business combination transactions has become significantly more complicated, time consuming and expensive, and we may not be able to negotiate a transaction that is acceptable to our stockholders or sufficiently protect their interests in a transaction.

The new regulation allows PRC government agencies to assess the economic terms of a business combination transaction. Parties to a business combination transaction may have to submit to the PRC Ministry of Commerce, or MOFCOM, and other relevant government agencies an appraisal report, an evaluation report and the acquisition agreement, all of which form part of the application for approval, depending on the structure of the transaction. The regulations also prohibit a transaction at an acquisition price obviously lower than the appraised value of the PRC business or assets and in certain transaction structures, require that consideration must be paid within defined periods, generally not in excess of a year. The regulation also limits our ability to negotiate various terms of the acquisition, including aspects of the initial consideration, contingent consideration, holdback provisions, indemnification provisions and provisions relating to the assumption and allocation of assets and liabilities. Transaction structures involving trusts, nominees and similar entities are prohibited. Therefore, such regulation may impede our ability to negotiate and complete a business combination transaction on financial terms that satisfy our investors and protect our stockholders’ economic interests.

Under the Enterprise Income Tax Law, we may be classified as a “resident enterprise” of China. Such classification will likely result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC stockholders.

The EIT Law and its implementing rules became effective on January 1, 2008. Under the EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with “de facto management bodies” within China is considered a “resident enterprise,” meaning that it can be treated in a manner similar to a Chinese enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes. The implementing rules of the EIT Law define de facto management as “substantial and overall management and control over the production and operations, personnel, accounting, and properties” of the enterprise.

On April 22, 2009, the State Administration of Taxation issued the Notice Concerning Relevant Issues Regarding Cognizance of Chinese Investment Controlled Enterprises Incorporated Offshore as Resident Enterprises pursuant to Criteria of de facto Management Bodies, or the Notice, further interpreting the application of the EIT Law and its implementation non-Chinese enterprise or group controlled offshore entities. Pursuant to the Notice, an enterprise incorporated in an offshore jurisdiction and controlled by a Chinese enterprise or group will be classified as a “non-domestically incorporated resident enterprise” if (i) its senior management in charge of daily operations reside or perform their duties mainly in China; (ii) its financial or personnel decisions are made or approved by bodies or persons in China; (iii) its substantial assets and properties, accounting books, corporate chops, board and shareholder minutes are kept in China; and (iv) at least half of its directors with voting rights or senior management often resident in China. A resident enterprise would be subject to an enterprise income tax rate of 25% on its worldwide income and must pay a withholding tax at a rate of 10% when paying dividends to its non-PRC shareholders. However, it remains unclear as to whether the Notice is applicable to an offshore enterprise incorporated by a Chinese natural person. Nor are detailed measures on imposition of tax from non-domestically incorporated resident enterprises are available. Therefore, it is unclear how tax authorities will determine tax residency based on the facts of each case.

We may be deemed to be a resident enterprise by Chinese tax authorities. If the PRC tax authorities determine that we are a “resident enterprise” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, a number of unfavorable PRC tax consequences could follow. First, we may be subject to the enterprise income tax at a rate of 25% on our worldwide taxable income as well as PRC enterprise income tax reporting obligations. In our case, this would mean that income such as interest on financing proceeds and non-China source income would be subject to PRC enterprise income tax at a rate of 25%. Second, although under the EIT Law and its implementing rules dividends paid to us from our PRC subsidiaries would qualify as “tax-exempt income,” we cannot guarantee that such dividends will not be subject to a 10% withholding tax, as the PRC foreign exchange control authorities, which enforce the withholding tax, have not yet issued guidance with respect to the processing of outbound remittances to entities that are treated as resident enterprises for PRC enterprise income tax purposes. Finally, it is possible that future guidance issued with respect to the new “resident enterprise” classification could result in a situation in which a 10% withholding tax is imposed on dividends we pay to our non-PRC stockholders and with respect to gains derived by our non-PRC stockholders from transferring our shares. We are actively monitoring the possibility of “resident enterprise” treatment for the 2011 tax year and are evaluating appropriate organizational changes to avoid this treatment, to the extent possible.

If we were treated as a “resident enterprise” by PRC tax authorities, we would be subject to taxation in both the U.S. and China, and our PRC tax may not be creditable against our U.S. tax.

We face uncertainty from China’s Circular on Strengthening the Administration of Enterprise Income Tax on Non-Resident Enterprises’ Share Transfer that was released in December 2009 with retroactive effect from January 1, 2008.

The Chinese State Administration of Taxation, or SAT, released a circular on December 15, 2009 that addresses the transfer of shares by nonresident companies, generally referred to as Circular 698. Circular 698, which is effective retroactively to January 1, 2008, may have a significant impact on many companies that use offshore holding companies to invest in China. Circular 698, which provides parties with a short period of time to comply with its requirements, indirectly taxes foreign companies on gains derived from the indirect sale of a Chinese company. Where a foreign investor indirectly transfers equity interests in a Chinese resident enterprise by selling the shares in an offshore holding company, and the latter is located in a country or jurisdiction where the effective tax burden is less than 12.5% or where the offshore income of his, her, or its residents is not taxable, the foreign investor is required to provide the tax authority in charge of that Chinese resident enterprise with the relevant information within 30 days of the transfers. Moreover, where a foreign investor indirectly transfers equity interests in a Chinese resident enterprise through an abuse of form of organization and there are no reasonable commercial purposes such that the corporate income tax liability is avoided, the PRC tax authority will have the power to re-assess the nature of the equity transfer in accordance with PRC’s “substance-over-form” principle and deny the existence of the offshore holding company that is used for tax planning purposes. There is uncertainty as to the application of Circular 698. For example, while the term “indirectly transfer” is not defined, it is understood that the relevant PRC tax authorities have jurisdiction regarding requests for information over a wide range of foreign entities having no direct contact with China. Moreover, the relevant authority has not yet promulgated any formal provisions or formally declared or stated how to calculate the effective tax in the country or jurisdiction and to what extent and the process of the disclosure to the tax authority in charge of that Chinese resident enterprise. In addition, there are not any formal declarations with regard to how to decide “abuse of form of organization” and “reasonable commercial purpose,” which can be utilized by us to balance if our Company complies with the Circular 698. As a result, we may become at risk of being taxed under Circular 698 and we may be required to expend valuable resources to comply with Circular 698 or to establish that we should not be taxed under Circular 698, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

We may be exposed to liabilities under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and Chinese anti-corruption laws, and any determination that we violated these laws could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We are subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practice Act, or FCPA, and other laws that prohibit improper payments or offers of payments to foreign governments and their officials and political parties by U.S. persons and issuers as defined by the statute, for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. We have operations, agreements with third parties, and make most of our sales in China. The PRC also strictly prohibits bribery of government officials. Our activities in China create the risk of unauthorized payments or offers of payments by the employees, consultants, sales agents, or distributors of our Company, even though they may not always be subject to our control. It is our policy to implement safeguards to discourage these practices by our employees. However, our existing safeguards and any future improvements may prove to be less than effective, and the employees, consultants, sales agents, or distributors of our Company may engage in conduct for which we might be held responsible. Violations of the FCPA or Chinese anti-corruption laws may result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, and we may be subject to other liabilities, which could negatively affect our business, operating results and financial condition. In addition, the U.S. government may seek to hold our Company liable for successor liability FCPA violations committed by companies in which we invest or that we acquire.

If we become directly subject to the recent scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity involving U.S.-listed Chinese companies, we may have to expend significant resources to investigate and resolve the matter which could harm our business operations, stock price and reputation and could result in a loss of your investment in our stock, especially if such matter cannot be addressed and resolved favorably.

Recently, U.S. public companies that have substantially all of their operations in China, particularly companies like us which have completed so-called reverse merger transactions, have been the subject of intense scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity by investors, financial commentators and regulatory agencies, such as the SEC. Much of the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity has centered around financial and accounting irregularities and mistakes, a lack of effective internal controls over financial accounting, inadequate corporate governance policies or a lack of adherence thereto and, in many cases, allegations of fraud. As a result of the scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity, the publicly traded stock of many U.S. listed Chinese companies has sharply decreased in value and, in some cases, has become virtually worthless. Many of these companies are now subject to shareholder lawsuits, SEC enforcement actions and are conducting internal and external investigations into the allegations. It is not clear what effect this sector-wide scrutiny, criticism and negative publicity will have on our Company, our business and our stock price. If we become the subject of any unfavorable allegations, whether such allegations are proven to be true or untrue, we will have to expend significant resources to investigate such allegations and/or defend our company. This situation will be costly and time consuming and distract our management from growing our company. If such allegations are not proven to be groundless, our company and business operations will be severely impacted and your investment in our stock could be rendered worthless.

26


The disclosures in our reports and other filings with the SEC and our other public pronouncements are not subject to the scrutiny of any regulatory bodies in the PRC. Accordingly, our public disclosure should be reviewed in light of the fact that no governmental agency that is located in China where substantially all of our operations and business are located have conducted any due diligence on our operations or reviewed or cleared any of our disclosure.

We are regulated by the SEC and our reports and other filings with the SEC are subject to SEC review in accordance with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Unlike public reporting companies whose operations are located primarily in the United States, however, substantially all of our operations are located in China. Since substantially all of our operations and business takes place in China, it may be more difficult for the Staff of the SEC to overcome the geographic and cultural obstacles that are present when reviewing our disclosure. These same obstacles are not present for similar companies whose operations or business take place entirely or primarily in the United States. Furthermore, our SEC reports and other disclosure and public pronouncements are not subject to the review or scrutiny of any PRC regulatory authority. For example, the disclosure in our SEC reports and other filings are not subject to the review of the CSRC, a PRC regulator that is tasked with oversight of the capital markets in China. Accordingly, you should review our SEC reports, filings and our other public pronouncements with the understanding that no local regulator has done any due diligence on our company and with the understanding that none of our SEC reports, other filings or any of our other public pronouncements has been reviewed or otherwise been scrutinized by any local regulator.

RISKS RELATED TO THE MARKET FOR OUR STOCK

Although publicly traded, the trading market in our common stock has been substantially less liquid than the average trading market for a stock quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market and this low trading volume may adversely affect the price of our common stock.

Our common stock is traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “CBPO.” The trading market in our common stock has been substantially less liquid than the average trading market for companies trading on the NASDAQ Stock Market. Reported average daily trading volume in our common stock for the three months immediately prior to March 1, 2012, was approximately 27,834 shares. Limited trading volume will subject our shares of common stock to greater price volatility and may make it difficult for you to sell your shares of common stock at a price that is attractive to you.

The market price of our common stock is volatile, leading to the possibility of its value being depressed at a time when you want to sell your holdings.

The market price of our common stock is volatile, and this volatility may continue. Numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate significantly. These factors include:

Securities class action litigation is often instituted against companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs to us and divert our management’s attention and resources. Moreover, securities markets may from time to time experience significant price and volume fluctuations for reasons unrelated to operating performance of particular companies. For example, in July 2008, the securities markets in the United States, China and other jurisdictions experienced the largest decline in share prices since September 2001. These market fluctuations may adversely affect the price of our common stock and other interests in our company at a time when you want to sell your interest in us.

27


Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws or Delaware law might discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our company or changes in our management and, therefore depress the trading price of the common stock.

Delaware corporate law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that could discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our Company or changes in its management that our stockholders may deem advantageous. These provisions:

In addition, Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law generally limits our ability to engage in any business combination with certain persons who own 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock or any of our associates or affiliates who at any time in the past three years have owned 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock. These provisions may have the effect of entrenching our management team and may deprive you of the opportunity to sell your shares to potential acquirers at a premium over prevailing prices. This potential inability to obtain a control premium could reduce the price of our common stock.

We do not intend to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.

For the foreseeable future, we intend to retain any earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock. Accordingly, investors must be prepared to rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation to earn an investment return, which may never occur. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock. Any determination to pay dividends in the future will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors our board deems relevant.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS.

We have no outstanding or unresolved comments from the SEC staff.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

All land in China is owned by the government. Individuals and companies are permitted to acquire land use rights for specific purposes. Industrial land use rights are granted for a period of 50 years. This period may be renewed at the expiration of the initial and any subsequent terms. Granted land use rights are transferable and may be used as security for borrowings and other obligations.

In July 2003, Shandong Taibang obtained certain land use rights from the PRC municipal government to 43,663 square meters consisting of manufacturing facilities, warehouses and office buildings in Tai’an City, Shandong Province. Shandong Taibang is required to make payments totaling approximately $21,855 (RMB138,848) per year to the local state-owned entity, for the 50 year life of the rights or until the Shandong Institute completes its privatization process. We recorded “land use rights” asset and a corresponding liability, “other payable – land use rights”, at the inception of the transaction determined using present value of annual payments over 50 years. The other payable-land use rights amounted to $343,477, $333,008 and $323,687 as of December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Guizhou Taibang entered into a lease agreement on June 1, 2006 with a group of individuals in an area located next to its production facility to lease and use the space for processing industrial wastes for 10 years. The annual lease amount is approximately $1,643 (RMB10,438).

We believe that all of our properties have been adequately maintained, are generally in good condition, and are suitable and adequate for our business.

Some of our properties are leased from third parties, of which we have entered into formal lease agreements for two of them. The remaining leases are on a verbal basis. In all cases, the lessors have not been able to provide copies of documentation evidencing their rights to use the leased property. In most cases, the leased properties are small operating spaces we leased for our sales offices in different parts of China. In the event of any future dispute over the ownership of the leased properties, we believe we could easily and quickly find replacement premises so that the operations would not be affected.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise, in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these, or other matters, may arise from time to time that may harm our business. Other than the legal proceedings set forth below, we are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

Bobai County Collection Station

In January 2007, Shandong Taibang advanced approximately $472,200 (RMB3.0 million) to Feng Lin, the 20% noncontrolling interest shareholder in Fang Cheng Plasma Company, an indirect majority owned subsidiary of the Company, for the purpose of establishing or acquiring a plasma collection station. Mr. Lin and Shandong Taibang intended to establish the Bobai Kangan Plasma Collection Co., Ltd., or Bobai, in Bobai County, Guangxi and on January 18, 2007, Shandong Taibang signed a letter of intent to acquire the assets of the Bobai Plasma Collection Station, which was co-owned by Mr. Lin and Mr. Keliang Huang. However, in January 2007, Hua Lan Biological Engineering Co., Ltd., or Hua Lan, filed suit in the District Court of Hong Qi District, Xin Xiang City, Henan Province, alleging that Feng Lin, Keliang Huang and Shandong Taibang established and/or sought to operate the Bobai Plasma Collection Station using a permit for collecting and supplying human plasma in Bobai County, that was originally granted to Hua Lan by the government of the Guangxi region, without Hua Lan’s permission. The establishment and registration of Bobai was never realized as a result of this law suit. On January 29, 2007, on Hua Lan’s motion, the District Court entered an order to freeze funds in the amount of approximately $472,200 (RMB3,000,000) held by the defendants in the case, including approximately $778,700 (RMB500,000) in funds held in Shandong Taibang’s bank account in Tai’an City. A hearing was held on June 25, 2007 and judgment was entered against the defendants along with a $267,580 (RMB1,700,000) joint financial judgment. We appealed the District Court judgment to the Xinxiang City Intermediate Court. In November 2007, the Xinxiang City Intermediate Court affirmed the judgment against the three defendants and increased the amount of the joint financial judgment to approximately $472,200 (RMB3,000,000).

In January 2008, Hua Lan enforced the judgment granted by the Xinxiang City Intermediate Court to freeze our bank accounts. Shandong Taibang has filed a separate action against Hua Lan before the Tai’an City District Court to seek recovery of any losses in connection with Hua Lan’s claim and to request that the Tai’an City District Court preserve Hua Lan’s property or freeze up to approximately $472,200 (RMB 3 million) of Hua Lan’s assets to secure the return of such funds to us. The matter is currently pending before the Intermediate Court of Tai’an City. Pending the outcome of the proceedings, Shandong Taibang increased its loss contingency reserve during its fourth quarter of 2007 from approximately $89,193 (RMB566,667) to $157,400 (RMB1,000,000) to cover its share of the enforcement of this judgment. During the fourth quarter of 2008, full amount of the judgment, including Feng Lin and Keliang Huang’s portions of the judgment and the related fees, approximately $489,498 (RMB 3,109,900) has been withdrawn from Shandong Taibang’s account. We recorded Feng Lin and Keliang Huang’s portion of the judgment, approximately $326,327 (RMB 2,073,234), as receivable as a result of the withdrawal. As of December 31, 2008, we determined that it is unlikely that we will be able to recover such receivable from those two individuals and wrote off the receivable as bad debt expense. In January 2010, Feng Lin transferred his 20% equity in Fang Cheng Plasma Company as a repayment for such receivable. As a result, we are now the indirect 100% owner of the Fang Cheng Plasma Company.

In October 2009, Shandong Taibang appealed to the High Court of Henan Province requesting the court to reverse judgments from the Hong Qi District Court based on Shandong Taibang’s belief that Hua Lan’s involvement in Bobai was in violation of PRC Blood Products Regulations as Hua Lan did not invest, as Shandong Taibang did, in Bobai as required by the Regulation. We were awaiting the judgment of the Henan High Court as of the date of this report. In light of the foregoing, it is unlikely that our planned acquisition of the assets of Bobai will go forward.

Dispute among Guizhou Taibang Shareholders over Raising Additional Capital

On May 28, 2007, a 91% majority of Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders approved a plan to raise additional capital from private strategic investors through the issuance of an additional 20,000,000 shares of Guizhou Taibang equity interests at RMB 2.80 per share. The plan required all existing Guizhou Taibang shareholders to waive their rights of first refusal to subscribe for the additional shares. The remaining 9% minority holder of Guizhou Taibang’s shares, the Guizhou Jie’an Company, or Jie’an, did not support the plan and did not agree to waive its right of first refusal. On May 29, 2007, the majority shareholders caused Guizhou Taibang to sign an Equity Purchase Agreement with certain investors, pursuant to which the investors agreed to invest an aggregate of RMB 50,960,000 (approximately $8,021,104) in exchange for 18,200,000 shares, or 21.4%, of Guizhou Taibang’s equity interests. At the same time, Jie’an also subscribed for 1,800,000 shares, representing its 9% pro rata share of the 20,000,000 shares being offered. The proceeds from all parties were received by Guizhou Taibang in accordance with the agreement.

In June 2007, Jie’an brought suit in the High Court of Guizhou province, China, against Guizhou Taibang and the three other original Guizhou Taibang shareholders, alleging the illegality of the Equity Purchase Agreement. In its complaint, Jie’an alleged that it had a right to acquire the shares waived by the original Guizhou Taibang shareholders and offered to the investors in connection with the Equity Purchase Agreement. On September 12, 2008, the Guizhou High Court ruled against Jie’an and sustained the Equity Purchase Agreement, but on November 2008, Jie’an appealed the Guizhou High Court judgment to the People’s Supreme Court in Beijing. On May 13, 2009, the People’s Supreme Court sustained the original ruling and denied the rights of first refusal of Jie’an over the additional shares waived by the original Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders. The registration of the new investors as Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders and the related increase in registered capital of Guizhou Taibang with the AIC are still pending. On January 27, 2010, the strategic investors brought suit in the High Court of Guizhou Province against Guizhou Taibang alleging Guizhou Taibang’s failure to register their equity interest in Guizhou Taibang with the local AIC and requesting the distribution of their share of Guizhou Taibang’s dividends. Dalin was also joined as a co-defendant as it is the majority shareholder and exercises control over Guizhou Taibang’s day-to-day operations. We do not expect the strategic investors to prevail because, upon evaluation of the Equity Purchase Agreement, we believe that the Equity Purchase Agreement is void due to certain invalid pre-conditions and the absence of shareholder authorization of the initial investment. In the event that Guizhou Taibang is required to return their original investment amount to the strategic investors, as of December 31, 2010, Guizhou Taibang has set aside the strategic investors’ fund along with RMB 10,056,242 (approximately $1,582,852) in accrued interests, and RMB 509,600 (approximately $80,211) for the 1% penalty imposed by the agreement for any breach. If strategic investors prevail in their suit, Dalin’s interests in Guizhou Taibang may be reduced to approximately 41.3% . The High Court of Guizhou heard the case on April 8, 2010 and encouraged, and accepted by both parties, to settle the dispute outside the court but both parties failed to reach a mutual agreeable term.

29


On October 14, 2010, the High Court of Guizhou ruled in favor of the Company and denied the strategic investors’ right as shareholders of Guizhou Taibang, as well as their entitlement to the dividends. In light of the Guizhou ruling, in November 2010 the Company returned the proceeds in the amount of RMB 11,200,000 (approximately $1,762,880) to one of the strategic investors. On October 26, 2010, the other strategic investors appealed to, and subsequently accepted by, the PRC Supreme Court in Beijing on the ruling. On October 9, 2011, the PRC Supreme Court overruled the decision of the High Court of Guizhou and remanded the suit to the High Court of Guizhou for retrial. On December 29, 2011, High Court of Guizhou accepted the case for retrial. On January 5, 2012, the strategic investors re-filed their case to the High Court of Guizhou requesting, in addition to the share distribution, the distribution of dividends and interest in the amount of RMB 18,349,345 (approximately $2,888,187) and RMB 2,847,000 (approximately $448,118), respectively. The Company is awaiting the hearing as of the date of this report.

During the second quarter of 2010, Jie’an requested that Guizhou Taibang register its 1.8 million shares of additional capital infusion with the local AIC, pursuant to the Equity Purchase Agreement, and such request was approved by the majority shareholders of Guizhou Taibang in a shareholders meeting held in the second quarter of 2010. However, the Board of Directors of the Company is withholding its required ratification of the shareholders’ approval of Jie’an’s request, pending the outcome of the ongoing litigation. If we decide to ratify the approval, Dalin’s ownership in Guizhou Taibang will be diluted from 54% to 52.54% and Jie’an may be entitled to receive its pro rata share of Guizhou Taibang’s profits from the prior 4.5 years.

Guizhou Taibang’s Guarantee to a Third Party

In 2007, as a condition to purchase Huang Ping Plasma Station, Guizhou Taibang entered into an agreement with the Guizhou Zhongxin Investment Company, or Zhongxin, in which Guizhou Taibang agreed to repay Zhongxin’s debt out of Guizhou Taibang’s payables to Zhongxin arising from plasma purchased from Zhongxin. In the same agreement, Guizhou Taibang also delivered a guarantee to the Huang Ping County Hospital, the former co-owner of the Huang Ping Plasma Station, that it would pay RMB3,074,342 (approximately, $483,901) in debt that Zhongxin owed to the hospital. On June 1, 2009, the Huang Ping Hospital brought suit, in the Huang Ping County People’s Court of Guizhou Province, against Zhongxin for non-payment of its payables and debt due to Huang Ping Hospital and against Guizhou Taibang as the guarantor. On November 2, 2009, the court ruled in favor of the plaintiff and Guizhou Taibang as the guarantor became obligated to repay the Zhongxin’s debt to the Huang Ping Hospital on behalf of Zhongxin. In October 2009, Guizhou Taibang appealed to the Middle Court of Kaili District in Guizhou Province which sustained the original judgment on April 8, 2010. Under the Equity Transfer Agreement pursuant to which the Company acquired a 90% interest in Dalin, the sellers will be responsible, based on their pro rata equity interest in Guizhou Taibang, for damages incurred by Guizhou Taibang from Zhongxin’s debt and that they will repay Dalin their pro rata share of payments made by Guizhou Taibang to creditors in connection with Zhongxin’s debt within 10 days after payment by Guizhou Taibang. The RMB 3,074,342 contingent liability and proportionate share of the liability to be recovered from the sellers were properly reflected in the financials as of December 31, 2009. On December 31, 2010, Guizhou Taibang brought suit against Zhongxin in the Intermediate Court of Guiyang City, to recover the full judgment amount of RMB 3,074,342 plus court fee of RMB 32,340 that Guizhou Taibang has already paid on behalf of Zhongxin.

On September 13, 2010, Zhongxin countersued the Company for a consideration of RMB 500,000 (approximately $78,700) for the alleged loss of its share of income from the Huang Ping Plasma Station since the Company acquired the station in April 2007. The Company believes Zhongxin’s claim is unwarranted since the Company acquired the station from its rightful owner, the Treasury Department of Huangpin County, Guizhou Province.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto and the other financial information appearing elsewhere in this report. In addition to historical information, the following discussion contains certain forward-looking information. See “Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” above for certain information concerning those forward looking statements. Our financial statements are prepared in U.S. dollars and in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

Overview

We are a biopharmaceutical company, through our indirect majority-owned PRC subsidiaries, Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang, and our minority-owned PRC investee, Huitian, principally engaged in the research, development, manufacturing and sales of plasma-based pharmaceutical products in China. Shandong Taibang operates from our manufacturing facility located in Tai’an, Shandong Province and Guizhou Taibang operates from our manufacturing facility located in Guiyang City, Guizhou Province. Our minority owned investee, Huitian, operates from its facility in Shaanxi Province. The plasma-based biopharmaceutical manufacturing industry in China is highly regulated by both provincial and central governments. Accordingly, the manufacturing process of our products is strictly monitored from the initial collection of plasma from human donors to finished products. Our principal products include our approved human albumin and immunoglobulin products.

We are approved to sell human albumin with dosages of 20%/10ml, 20%/25ml, 20%/50ml, 10%/10ml, 10%/25ml, 10%/50ml and 25%/50ml. Human albumin is our top-selling product. Sales of these human albumin products represented approximately 54.5%, 48.0% and 49.7% of our total sales, respectively, for each of the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009. Human albumin is principally used to increase blood volume while immunoglobulin, one of our other major products, is used for certain disease prevention and cures. Our approved human albumin and immunoglobulin products use human plasma as the basic raw material. Albumin has been used for almost 50 years to treat critically ill patients by replacing lost fluid and maintaining adequate blood volume and pressure. All of our products are prescription medicines administered in the form of injections.

32


We sell our products to customers in the PRC, mainly hospitals and inoculation centers directly or through approved distributors. We usually sign short-term contracts with customers and therefore our largest customers have changed over the years. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, our top 5 customers accounted for approximately 13.2%, 12.3% and 10.7%, respectively, of our total sales. As we continue to diversify our geographic presence, customer base and product mix, we expect that our largest customers will continue to change from year to year.

We operate and manage our business as a single segment. We do not account for the results of our operations on a geographic or other basis.

Financial Performance Highlights

The following are some financial highlights for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011:

Closure of Plasma Stations in Guizhou Province

On July 15, 2011, the Guizhou Provincial Health Department issued the revised “Plan for Guizhou Provincial Blood Collection Institutional Setting (2011-2014)”, or the “Guizhou Plan”, which limits the number of counties that are permitted to set up plasma collection stations in Guizhou Province to four counties. As a result of the implementation of the Guizhou Plan, the licenses of four active plasma collection stations in Dan Zhai, Wei Ning, San Sui and Na Yong counties owned by Guizhou Taibang were not renewed after their respective plasma collection permits expired at the end of July 2011. The licenses of its plasma collection stations in Pu Ding and Huang Ping counties (locations permitted under the Guizhou Plan) were renewed until July 31, 2013. These four stations in Dan Zhai, Wei Ning, San Sui and Na Yong counties together accounted for approximately 21.0% (7 months of operation) and 34.1% of our total plasma collection by volume for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In addition, Guizhou Taibang’s inactive plasma collection station in Guizhou Province that was purchased from the government in 2007 is unlikely to be licensed as planned, because it is in Zhengyuan County, a location not included in the Guizhou Plan.

As a result of the closure of the above plasma collection stations, certain equipment, office furniture, building improvement and plasma collection permits were abandoned and written off during the third quarter of 2011. The loss on abandonment and written off of these long-lived assets is set forth below.

Equipment $  295,643  
Office furniture   206,183  
Building improvement   908,553  
Plasma collection permits   5,192,649  
Total $  6,603,028  

Furthermore, we wrote-off $167,604 of raw material plasma that is expected not to qualify for production due to the 90-day quarantine period rules as their sourcing plasma stations were closed under the Guizhou Plan.

33


Principal Factors Affecting our Financial Performance

The following are key factors that affect our financial condition and results of operations and we believe them to be important to the understanding of our business:

Raw Material Supply and Prices

The primary raw material used in the production of our albumin and immunoglobulin products is human plasma. Collection of human plasma in China is regulated and until 2006, only licensed Plasmapheresis stations owned and operated by the government could collect human plasma. Each collection station was only allowed to supply plasma to the one manufacturer that has signed the “Quality Responsibility” statement with them. The price of human plasma is negotiated on an annual basis and is determined by a number of factors including, but not limited to, the cost of operating the collection stations, the nutritional supplement fee awarded to the donors for each donation, and the anticipated volume of total plasma donated. However, in March 2006, the Ministry of Health promulgated certain “Measures on Reforming Plasma Collection Stations,” or the Blood Collection Measures, whereby the ownership and management of PRC plasma stations are required to be transferred to plasma-based biopharmaceutical companies while the regulatory supervision and administrative control remain with the State. Plasma stations that did not complete their reform by December 31, 2006, risked revocation of their license to collect plasma.

In December 2006, we acquired five of the six then existing plasma stations in Shandong and on January 1, 2007 we obtained the permits to operate these stations. These acquisitions have allowed us to have a direct influence on the operation of these collection stations and secure a stable source of plasma supply for production. The foregoing acquisitions, as well as the acquisition of Dalin and its indirectly owned plasma stations, have led to an increase in our plasma supply for production and did not result in any material differences in our cost structure. Due to current market conditions, we have generally been able to pass substantially all cost increases in recent years on to our customers.

Prices of and Demand for Our Products

The demand for our products is largely affected by the general economic conditions in China because they are still not affordable to many patients. As China’s economy grows, we expect more Chinese people will become consumers of medical treatments and procedures, including procedures requiring human plasma. A significant improvement in the economic environment in China will likely improve consumer income which in turn would make our products more affordable and consequently increase the demand for our products. We have been able to expand our product range and markets by introducing new products required by customers. We believe that our technical expertise is important in introducing products that are in demand.

Production Capacity

Our sales volume is limited by our annual production capacity. As we grow our business in the future, our ability to fulfill additional and larger orders will depend on our ability to increase our production capacity. Our plan to expand our production capacity will depend on, inter alia, the availability of capital to meet our needs of expansion or upgrading of production lines, and the availability of stable plasma supply.

As of December 31, 2011, the aggregate production capacity of Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang was 1,100 metric tons per annum. We estimate that the production capacity of our major competitors ranges from 300 tons to 1,000 tons per annum. We believe that our current production capacity is sufficient to meet the current demand for our products for the next two years.

Competition

We are subject to intense competition. There are both local and overseas pharmaceutical enterprises that are engaged in the manufacture and sale of potential substitute or similar biopharmaceutical products as our products in the PRC. These competitors may have more capital, better research and development resources, manufacturing and marketing capability and experience than we do. In our industry, we compete based upon product quality, product cost, ability to produce a diverse range of products and logistical capabilities.

We believe that we have strengthened our position in the marketplace with our acquisition of Dalin and its 54% majority-owned operating subsidiary, Guizhou Taibang, and a 35% equity interest in Huitian, a Xi’an-based biopharmaceutical company.

Our profitability may be adversely affected if (i) competition intensifies; (ii) competitors drastically reduce prices; (iii) PRC government’s interference on prices; or (iv) competitors develop new products or product substitutes with comparable medicinal applications or therapeutic effects which are more effective or less costly than those produced by us. Please refer to Item 1, “Business - Competition” for more information regarding this factor..

34


Taxation

China Biologic is subject to United States tax at a tax rate of 34%. No provision for income taxes in the United States has been made as China Biologic has no taxable income.

Taibang Biological was incorporated in the BVI, but is not subject to taxation in that jurisdiction.

Taibang Holdings was incorporated in Hong Kong and under the current laws of Hong Kong, are subject to a Profits Tax of 16.5% . However, no provision for Hong Kong Profits Tax has been made as Taibang Holdings has no taxable income.

According to the PRC’s central government policy, new or high technology companies will enjoy preferential tax treatment of 15%, instead of 25% under the EIT Law. In February 2009, Shandong Taibang was granted the High and New Technology Enterprise status which entitled it to a 15% preferential income tax rate for a period of three years from 2008 to 2010. Further, Guizhou Taibang was entitled to the preferential income tax rate of 15% under the 10-year Western Development Tax Concession, which also ended in 2010. On October 31, 2011, Shandong Taibang was issued the High and New Technology Enterprise qualification for an additional three years from 2011 to 2013. According to CaiShui [2011] No. 58 dated July 27, 2011, qualified enterprises located in the western regions of PRC are entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 15% effective retroactively from January 1, 2011. Management believes Guizhou Taibang will be treated as a qualified enterprise located in the western regions and therefore be subject to income tax at a preferential tax rate of 15% from 2011 to 2020. See Item 1 “Business – Regulation – Taxation” for a detailed description of the EIT Law and tax regulations applicable to our PRC subsidiaries. All other subsidiaries of the Company are subjected to the regular 25% tax rate.

Sales. Our total sales increased by 9.6%, or $13,396,872, to $153,092,289 for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to $139,695,417 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in sales during 2011 was primarily attributable to a mix of price and volume increases in certain of our plasma based products. In addition, foreign exchange translation accounted for 5.0% of the sales increase.

Most of our approved products recorded price increases ranging from approximately 1.4% to 10.6%, except for human tetanus immunoglobulin products, which decreased by approximately 3.4% . For 2011 as compared to 2010, the average price for our approved human albumin products, which contributed 54.5% to our total sales, increased by approximately 1.4% and, excluding the foreign exchange translation effect, their average price in RMB term decreased by approximately 3.2%; the average price for our approved human hepatitis B immunoglobulin products, which contributed 4.8% to our total sales, increased by approximately 2.8% and, excluding the foreign exchange translation effect, their average price in RMB term decreased slightly by approximately 1.9%; the average price for our approved human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection, or IVIG products, which contributed 32.3% to our total sales, increased by approximately 7.2%, and excluding the foreign exchange translation effect, their average price in RMB term increased by approximately 2.3%; the average price for our approved human rabies immunoglobulin products, which contributed 1.5% to our total sales, increased by approximately 10.6% and, excluding the foreign exchange translation effect, their average price in RMB term increased by approximately 5.6%; and the average price for our approved human tetanus immunoglobulin products, which contributed 4.7% to our total sales, decreased by approximately 3.4% and, excluding the foreign exchange translation effect, their average price in RMB term decreased by approximately 7.8% . The general price increase of our immunoglobulin product group was primarily attributable to the continuing shortage in supply of such products, while the average price decrease in human albumin products in RMB term was mainly due to the continuous increase in the imported volume of this product during 2011. The slight price decrease in human hepatitis B immunoglobulin products in RMB term was mainly due to our participation in a public health program sponsored by PRC’s Ministry of Health benefiting migrant workers. The sales price of this public health program is lower than normal retail price in order to benefit migrant workers. The price decrease in human tetanus immunoglobulin products was primarily the result of the increasingly saturated market.

Volume in sales for our human albumin and human tetanus immunoglobulin products increased by 22.7% and 82.6%, respectively, for 2011 as compared to 2010. Volume in sales for our IVIG, human hepatitis B immunoglobulin and human rabies immunoglobulin products decreased by 3.7%, 33.2% and 73.0%, respectively, for 2011 as compared to 2010. As the Hand-Foot-and-Mouth Disease, or HFMD, which the outburst took place between April and August in 2010, was not as severe in 2011 as in 2010, the sales volume of IVIG decreased slightly during 2011 as compared to 2010. The sales volume of human hepatitis B immunoglobulin products decreased mainly due to the decrease in demand as the new government program emphasizes on application of the products on new-borns but not the pre-natal mothers. The sales volume decrease in human rabies immunoglobulin products was mainly due to the lack of availability of qualified raw material supply for hyper-immune immunoglobulin products. We will continue to balance the supply of raw material and the demand of the finished products for hyper-immune immunoglobulin products.

Cost of sales. Our total cost of sales increased by $9,066,512, or 24.5%, to $46,017,661 for the year ended December 31, 2011, from $36,951,149 for the year ended December 31, 2010. Cost of sales as a percentage of total sales was 30.1% for the year ended December 31, 2011, as compared to 26.5% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in cost of sales, as well as the increase in cost of sales as a percentage of sales, was mainly due to the increase in sales and the increase in cost of plasma paid to donors along with a change in the mix of products that were sold during 2011. In an effort to increase plasma collection volume and expand our donor base, we increased the nutrition fees paid to donors.

Gross profit and gross margin. Our gross profit increased by $4,330,360, or 4.2%, to $107,074,628 for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $102,744,268 for the year ended December 31, 2010. As a percentage of total sales, our gross margin decreased by 3.6% to 69.9% for the year ended December 31, 2011, from 73.5% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease in gross profit margin was mainly due to the price decreases in certain of our products and higher raw material costs as discussed above, which outpaced the price increases of our other products.

Operating expenses. Our total operating expenses increased by $40,681,191, or 119.0%, to $74,857,160 for the year ended December 31, 2011, from $34,175,969 for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase was primarily attributable to a goodwill impairment loss of $18,160,281, a loss on abandonment of long-lived assets of $6,603,028, as well as a 98.0% increase in our selling expenses and a 28.8% increase in our general and administrative expenses during 2011. As a percentage of total sales, total expenses increased by 24.4% to 48.9% for the year ended December 31, 2011 from 24.5% for the year ended December 31, 2010. Excluding the non-cash charge for impairment of goodwill and loss on abandonment of long-lived asset, the total operating expenses was $50,093,851, an increase of $15,917,882, or 46.6%, for the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2010.

Selling expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2011, our selling expenses increased to $14,595,794, from $7,372,348 for the year ended December 31, 2010, an increase of $7,223,446, or 98.0% . As a percentage of total sales, our selling expenses for the year ended December 31, 2011 increased by 4.2%, to 9.5%, from 5.3% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in selling expenses was primarily due to our increased promotional and conference activities as we continued our efforts in expanding our customer base into hospitals and inoculation centers throughout the PRC.

General and administrative expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2011, our general and administrative expenses increased to $31,519,824, from $24,467,495 for the year ended December 31, 2010, a $7,052,329, or 28.8% increase. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total sales increased by 3.1% to 20.6% for the year ended December 31, 2011 from 17.5% for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in general and administrative expenses was mainly due to an increase in expenses related to payroll and employee benefits, as well as an increase of approximately $2.6 million in non-cash employee stock compensation, which is offset by the $1.0 million decrease in legal expenses. The increase in payroll was mainly due to general salary increases in the operating subsidiaries and the addition of our new corporate offices in Beijing.

Research and development expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, our research and development expenses were $3,978,233 and $2,336,126, respectively, an increase of $1,642,107, or 70.3% . As a percentage of total sales, our research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 were 2.6% and 1.7%, respectively. The increase in research and development expenses was primarily due to the increased cost of plasma used in research and the cost in applying for the SFDA approval of our two new products. Due to the delay of the SFDA approval process, we expect to receive the approval for these two new products in early 2012.

Impairment loss of goodwill. Following the closure of plasma collection stations of Guizhou Taibang due to the regulatory notice, we revised our earnings guidance for the year of 2011 and experienced incremental decline in our stock price and market capitalization in the third quarter of 2011. The occurrence of these events caused us to believe that the fair value of our reporting unit would more likely than not be below its book value. Therefore, we performed a two-step goodwill impairment test and concluded that, for the year ended December 31, 2011, a goodwill impairment loss of $18,160,281 was recognized in our single reporting unit since the carrying amount of the reporting unit was greater than the fair value of the reporting unit (as determined based on the quoted market price) and the carrying amount of the reporting unit goodwill exceeded the implied fair value of that goodwill.

Loss on abandonment and write-off of long-lived assets. As a result of the closure of the plasma collection stations of Guizhou Taibang, certain equipment, office furniture, building improvement and plasma collection permits were abandoned or written off during the third quarter of 2011. Loss on abandonment of Guizhou Taibang’s long-lived assets of $6,603,028 was recognized in the year ended December 31, 2011.

Change in fair value of derivative liabilities. The embedded derivatives (including the conversion option) in our senior secured convertible notes and warrants that were issued in June 2009 are classified as derivative liabilities carried at fair value. For the year ended December 31, 2011, we recognized a gain from the change in the fair value of derivative liabilities in the amount of $11,974,834, as compared to a loss in the amount of $3,233,288 for the year ended December 31, 2010. The gain from the change in the fair value of derivative liabilities in 2011 is mainly due to a decrease in the price of our common stock from $16.39 per share as of December 31, 2010 to $10.46 per share as of December 31, 2011. The convertible notes have been fully converted as of December 31, 2011. Future changes in the market price of our common stock could cause the fair value of the warrants to change significantly in future periods.

Interest expense (income). Our interest expense increased by $1,988,124 to $4,670,606 for the year ended December 31, 2011, from $2,682,482 for the year ended December 31, 2010. Our interest income increased by $604,633 to $1,356,950 for the year ended December 31, 2011, from $752,317 for the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to the effective interest charges on our convertible notes of $3,580,167 and $1,849,493, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. As of December 31, 2011, the convertible notes had been fully converted and therefore, interest expense is expected to decrease.

Income tax expense. Our provision for income taxes decreased by $2,709,242, or 19.9%, to $10,899,513 for the year ended December 31, 2011, from $13,608,755 for the year ended December 31, 2010. Our effective income tax rates were 25.8% and 20.7% for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase of the effective income tax rate was mainly attributable to the non-deductible impairment loss of goodwill and loss on abandonment and write-off of long-lived assets.

Net income attributable to Company. Our net income attributable to Company decreased by $13,361,173, or 42.4%, to $18,181,710 for the year ended December 31, 2011 from $31,542,883 for the year ended December 31, 2010. Net income attributable to Company as a percentage of total sales was 11.9% and 22.6% for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, as a result of the cumulative effect of the foregoing factors.

Sales. Our total sales increased by $20,697,262, or 17.4%, to $139,695,417 for the year ended December 31, 2010, compared to $118,998,155 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase in sales during fiscal year 2010 is primarily attributable to a general increase in the price and volume of plasma based products. Among the factors that contributed to the growth in revenue, foreign exchange translation accounted for 1.1% of the increase.

Most of our approved products recorded price increases ranging from 12.6% to 186.4%, except for human albumin products, which decreased by 1.8% .. The decrease in the price of human albumin in 2010 is primarily due to the increased volume of imported human albumin products in the PRC market during the period. We expect that this trend may continue as long as the volume of the imported human albumin products continues to grow. For 2010 as compared to 2009, the average price for our approved human albumin products, which contributed 48.0% to our total sales, decreased 1.8%, the average price for our approved human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection, which contributed 34.4% to our total sales, increased 26.9%, the average price for our approved human tetanus immunoglobulin, which contributed 2.9% to our total sales, increased 12.6%, the average price for our approved human rabies immunoglobulin, which contributed 5.3% to our total sales, increased 24.6%, and the average price for our approved human hepatitis B immunoglobulin, which contributed 7.6% to our total sales, increased 186.4% . The price increase of our products was primarily attributable to the continuing shortage in supply of the plasma-based products. We were able to adjust our production plan to take advantage of the limited market supply of plasma resources to realize higher profit margins.

Volume in sales for our human albumin, human hepatitis B immunoglobulin, human rabies immunoglobulin products and human tetanus immunoglobulin products increased by 15.7%, 7.4%, 26.5% and 24.6%, respectively, for 2010 as compared to 2009. Volume in sales for our human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection decreased by 15.8% because in 2009 the market demand for human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection increased due to the outbreak of hand-foot-mouth disease and the price of human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection was also much enhanced. As a result, we used the large amount of Factor II+III, the material segregated from plasma and restored separately when making centralized production of human albumin in 2008, to produce and sell high volume of human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection in 2009. The volume in sales for human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection decreased to a comparatively normal level in 2010.

Cost of sales. Our total cost of sales increased by $4,329,241, or 13.3%, to $36,951,149 for the year ended December 31, 2010, from $32,621,908 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Cost of sales as a percentage of sales was 26.5% for the year ended December 31, 2010, as compared to 27.4% for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase in cost of sales is due to the increase in sales, while the decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of sales is due to a change in the mix of products, as well as the price increase in most of the products that were sold during 2010.

Gross profit and gross margin. Our gross profit increased by $16,368,021, or 18.9%, to $102,744,268 for the year ended December 31, 2010 from $86,376,247 for the year ended December 31, 2009. As a percentage of total sales, our gross profit increased by 0.9% to 73.5% for the year ended December 31, 2010, from 72.6% for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase in gross profit is due mainly to increases in the selling price and sales volume of our products during 2010, as compared to 2009.

Operating expenses. Our total operating expenses increased by $8,277,089, or 32.0%, to $34,175,969 for the year ended December 31, 2010, from $25,898,880 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase was primarily attributable to a 40.5% increase in our research and development expenses, a 108.9% increase in our selling expense and an 18.2% increase in our general and administrative expenses during 2010. As a percentage of total sales, total expenses increased by 2.7% to 24.5% for the year ended December 31, 2010 from 21.8% for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Selling expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2010, our selling expenses increased to $7,372,348, from $3,529,242 for the year ended December 31, 2009, an increase of $3,843,106, or 108.9% . As a percentage of total sales, our selling expenses for the year ended December 31, 2010 increased by 2.3%, to 5.3%, from 3.0% for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase in selling expenses is primarily due to an increase in our promotional and conference activities as we continue our efforts in expanding our customer base into hospital and inoculation centers throughout the PRC.

General and administrative expenses. For the year ended December 31, 2010, our general and administrative expenses increased to $24,467,495, from $20,706,948 for the year ended December 31, 2009, a $3,760,547, or 18.2% increase. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total sales increased by 0.1% to 17.5% for the year ended December 31, 2010 from 17.4% for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to the increases in legal expense, non-cash employee compensation, travel and general office expenses as we continue to our efforts to integrate our two main operating entities, as well as and inventory allowance, which were offset by the decrease in payroll. The increase in legal expense is due to the $598,114 settlement of a law suit with Henan Xintai and the $1,177,836 settlement of a law suit with Sin Kyung Ye. Non-cash employee compensation for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 increased by $2,279,502 to $2,341,783, from $62,281 for 2009, as a result of the amortization of the grant of stock options to our senior management staff in January, February and July of 2010.

Research and development expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, our research and development expenses were $2,336,126 and $1,662,690, respectively, an increase of $673,436, or 40.5% . As a percentage of total sales, our research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were 1.7% and 1.4%, respectively. The increase in research and development expenses is primarily due to the cost associated with the development of two new products that are at the end of their respective development stage.

Change in fair value of derivative liabilities. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, we recognized a loss on the change in the fair value of derivative liabilities of $3,233,288 and $28,915,328, respectively. The recognized loss on the change in the fair value for the year ended December 31, 2010 is mainly due to our stock price increase from $12.08 to $16.39, which increased the fair value of derivative instruments, as of December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Interest expense (income), net. Our interest expense decreased by $1,859,581 to $2,682,482 for the year ended December 31, 2010, from $4,542,063 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Our interest income increased by $140,503 to $752,317 for the year ended December 31, 2010, from $611,814 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The decrease in interest expense is primarily due to our payment of a related party loan related to the acquisition of Dalin in the second quarter of 2010 and conversion of $4.9 million of our outstanding convertible notes in 2009 and 2010.

Income tax expense. Our provision for income taxes increased $3,595,192, or 35.9%, to $13,608,755 for the year ended December 31, 2010, from $10,013,563 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Our effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2010 was 20.7%, and effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2009 was 34.7% . The decrease in effective tax rate is mainly due to the decrease of $25.7 million in change in fair value of derivative liabilities that is not tax deductible. Among the increase in income taxes, $1.3 million is due to the dividend tax imposed by PRC tax authorities on dividends distributed by our two main operating entities to Taibang Biological during 2010.

Net income attributable to Company. Our net income attributable to Company increased by $29,334,757, or 1328.5%, to $31,542,883 for the year ended December 31, 2010, from $2,208,126 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Net income as a percentage of total sales was 22.6% and 1.9% for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, as a result of the cumulative effect of the foregoing factors.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date, we have financed our operations primarily through cash flows from operations, augmented by short-term bank borrowings and equity contributions by our stockholders. As of December 31, 2011, we had $89,411,835 in cash, primarily consisting of cash on hand and demand deposits.

The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

Cash and cash equivalent at end of the year   89,411,835     64,941,368     53,843,951  

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $38,469,919 for the year ended December 31, 2011, as compared to $38,787,226 and 50,300,987 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, our net income was $31,383,355, $51,992,304 and $18,823,784, respectively. Our net non-cash operating expense was $24,883,612, $13,416,312 and $34,285,159, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009.

Among the non-cash operating items for the years ended December 31, 2011,2010 and 2009, our depreciation and amortization expense was $7,648,469, $7,173,453 and $6,068,155, respectively, our stock compensation expense was $4,869,232, $2,341,783 and $62,281, respectively, the amortization of discount on convertible notes was $3,503,767, $1,590,740 and $100,253, respectively, and our income from change in fair value of derivative liabilities was $11,974,834 for the year ended 31 December 2011 and our expense from change in fair value of derivative liabilities was $3,233,288 and 28,915,328 for the years ended 31 December 2010 and 2009, respectively. Additionally, the impairment loss for goodwill and loss on abandonment and write-off of long-lived assets was $24,763,309 for the year ended December 31, 2011.

We had a net cash outflow of working capital of $17,797,048, $26,621,390 and $2,807,956 for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Among these cash outflows, the increase in inventory for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 were $17,079,263, $16,026,215 and 12,456,975, respectively. The increase in inventory was a direct result of the implementation of the 90-day quarantine period by the PRC government, which caused a longer staging period for raw material plasma inventory. The increase in accounts receivable for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 were $6,126,742, $7,820,523 and 1,510,430, respectively. As we increased our sales directly to end-users, such as hospitals and inoculation centers that have extended credit terms, we experienced a slower turn-over with our accounts receivable.

Investing Activities

Our use of cash for investing activities is primarily for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment and intangibles, and advances on non-current assets.

Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $7,127,252, as compared to $15,851,475 and $6,860,454 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. During the year ended December 31, 2011, we paid $7,968,870 for acquiring equipment for Shandong Taibang and for buildings and construction in progress at Guizhou Taibang. During the year ended December 31, 2010, we paid $1,476,781 to acquire a new Company, Ziguang Bio-tech Company, paid the final $2,599,215 payment for the acquisition of 90% equity in Dalin, $5,344,040 for equipment for Shandong Taibang and $6,444,110 for our plasma companies’ buildings and construction in progress in Guizhou Taibang.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2011 totaled $10,076,504, as compared to $14,278,870 and net cash provided by financing activities of $1,564,925 for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The net cash used in financing activities in 2011 was mainly due to a $10,847,200 repayment of a short-term bank loan, a $7,635,000 payment to acquire the remaining 10% interest in our 90% majority-owned subsidiary and a dividend payment of $10,489,504 to the noncontrolling interest shareholders, partly offset by cash provided by a new short-term loan totaling $18,595,200. The increase of the cash used in financing activities in 2010 was mainly attributable to the $10,446,179 dividend paid by our subsidiaries to the noncontrolling interest holder, repayment of a non-controlling shareholder loan of $3,683,377, repayment of short term bank loan of $7,397,000 and offset by short-term bank loans and proceeds from warrants exercises of $5,917,600 and $1,232,486, respectively.

Management believes that the Company has sufficient cash on hand and continuing positive cash inflow, from the sale of its plasma-based products in the PRC market, for its operations.

Obligations Under Material Contracts

The following table sets forth our material contractual obligations as of December 31, 2011:

    Payments Due by Period  
          Less than                 More than  
Contractual Obligations   Total     1 year     1-3 years     3-5 years     5 years  
Due to related parties $  2,764,205   $  2,764,205    $ -   $  -   $  -  
Operating lease commitment   727,572     335,037     138,651     108,406     145,478  
Total $  3,491,777   $  3,099,242   $  138,651   $  108,406   $  145,478  

Seasonality of our Sales

Our operating results and operating cash flows historically have not been subject to seasonal variations. This pattern may change, however, as a result of new market opportunities or new product introductions.

Inflation

Inflation does not materially affect our business or the results of our operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our investors.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP, requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We consider our critical accounting policies to be those that require the more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of financial statements, including the following:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of fixed assets; the allowance for doubtful accounts; the fair value determinations of financial and equity instruments and stock compensation awards, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination; the realizability of deferred tax assets and inventories; the recoverability of goodwill, intangible asset, land use right and property, plant and equipment; and accruals for income tax uncertainties and other contingencies. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in those estimates and assumptions.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the product has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company mainly sells human albumin and human immunoglobulin to hospitals, inoculation centers and pharmaceutical distributors. The Company requires a contract or purchase order which specify pricing, quantity and product specifications for all sales. Delivery of the product occurs when the product is received by the customer, which is when the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred. Sales are presented net of any discounts given to customers. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, there was no significant sales return from the customers.

41


Fair Value Measurements

On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FASB’s accounting standard related to fair value measurements and began recording financial assets and liabilities subject to recurring fair value measurement at the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. These fair value principles prioritize valuation inputs across three broad levels. The Company considers the carrying amount of cash, receivables, payables including accrued liabilities and short term loans to approximate their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and if applicable, their stated rates of interest are equivalent to interest rates currently available. The fair values are measured pursuant to the three levels defined by the FASB’s accounting standard as follow:

The fair values of the warrants outstanding as of December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 were determined based on the Binominal option pricing model, using the following key assumptions:

    December     December     December  
    31, 2011     31, 2010     31, 2009  
Expected dividend yield   0%     0%     0%  
Risk-free interest rate   0.05%     0.43%     1.38%  
Time to maturity (in years)   0.43     1.43     2.43  
Expected volatility   80.0%     70.0%     130.0%  
Fair value of underlying common shares (per share) $  10.46   $  16.39   $  12.08  

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio. In establishing the required allowance, management considers historical losses adjusted to take into account current market conditions and the customers’ financial condition, the amount of receivables in dispute, and the current receivables aging and current payment patterns. The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts monthly. Past due balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

Depending on the relationship and the creditability of the distributors, we generally grant a credit period of no longer than 90 days to distributors with some exceptions. For hospitals and clinics, we generally grant a credit period of no longer than 90 days with exceptions to customers that we believe are credit worthy up to 6 months. Due to recovery of bad debt that we previously provided an allowance, we had a bad debt credit of $0.02 million, $0.06 million and $0.01 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. Cost of work in progress and finished goods comprise direct materials, direct production costs and an allocation of production overheads based on normal operating capacity.

The Company reviews its inventory periodically for possible obsolete goods and cost in excess of net realizable value to determine if any reserves are necessary. As of December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, the Company wrote off $270,929, $451,761 and $519,333 relating to obsolete raw material plasma that may not qualify for production due to the 90-day quarantine period rules implemented by State Food and Drug Administration on July 1, 2008.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award and recognizes the cost over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which generally is the vesting period.

The fair value of each option granted on May 9, 2008, July 24, 2008, January 7, 2010, February 4, 2010, July 11, 2010, January 1, 2011, February 1, 2011, February 27, 2011 and October 6, 2011 are estimated on the respective dates of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following major assumptions:

42



Granted on

  May 9,     July 24,     January 7,     February 4,     July 11,     January 1,     February 1,     February 27,     October 6,  

 

  2008     2008     2010     2010     2010     2011     2011     2011     2011  

Expected dividend yield

  0%     0%     0%     0%     0%     0%     0%     0%     0%  

Risk-free interest rate

  3.56%     3.56%     2.62%     2.29%     1.85%     2.01%     1.95%     2.16%     0.96%  

Expected term (in years)

  5     5     5     5     6.5     5     5     5     5  

Expected volatility

  59.4%     81.2%     130.0%     130.0%     135.0%     70.0%     70.0%     70.0%     65.0%  

The volatility of the Company’s common stock was estimated by management based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk free interest rate was based on Treasury Constant Maturity Rates published by the U.S. Federal Reserve for periods applicable to the estimated term of the options. The expected dividend yield was based on the Company’s current and expected dividend policy. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted during the year of 2011 was $8.95.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections of FASB ASC Subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment - Overall, long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and purchased intangible asset subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary. The Company recognized a loss on abandonment and write off of long-lived assets of $6,603,028 for the year ended December 31, 2011 as described in Note 6 and Note 7 to our consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Our operations are carried out in the PRC and we are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. Accordingly, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy. Our results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily with respect to our short-term bank loans. Although our short-term loans are fixed for the terms of the loans, the terms are typically three to twelve months for short-term bank loans and interest rates are subject to change upon renewal. There was no material changes in interest rates for short-term bank loans renewed during the year ended December 31, 2011.

A hypothetical 1.0% increase in the annual interest rates for all of our credit facilities under which we had outstanding borrowings as of December 31, 2011 would decrease net income before provision for income taxes by approximately $110,180 for the year ended December 31, 2011. Management monitors the banks’ prime rates in conjunction with our cash requirements to determine the appropriate level of debt balances relative to other sources of funds. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to interest rate risk.

Foreign Exchange Risk

While our reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar, all of our consolidated revenues and consolidated costs and majority of expenses are denominated in RMB. All of our assets are denominated in RMB, except certain cash balances. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between U.S. Dollars and RMB. If RMB depreciates against the U.S. Dollar, the value of our RMB revenues, earnings and assets as expressed in our U.S. Dollar financial statements will decline. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates of our PRC’s subsidiaries. Any resulting translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are included in determining other comprehensive income, a component of stockholder’s equity. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange risk.

The value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar and other currencies is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. Since July 2005, the RMB has not been pegged to the U.S. dollar. Although the People’s Bank of China regularly involved in the foreign exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange rate, the RMB may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar or Euro in the medium to long term. Moreover, it is possible that in the future, PRC authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in RMB exchange rate and lessen involvement in the foreign exchange market.

43


Account Balances

We maintain balances at financial institutions which, from time to time, may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits for the banks located in the United States or may exceed Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board insured limits for the banks located in Hong Kong. Balances at financial institutions or state-owned banks within the PRC are not covered by insurance. Total cash in banks as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 amounted to $88,957,826 and $64,443,316, respectively, $236,373 and $110,693 of which are covered by insurance, respectively. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and we do not believe that we are exposed to any significant risks on our cash in bank accounts.

Inflation

Inflationary factors such as increases in the cost of our sales and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales if the selling prices of our products do not increase with these increased costs.

Market for Human Albumin and IVIG

Our two major products, human albumin and IVIG, accounted for 54.5% and 32.3% of the total sales for the year ended December 31, 2011, respectively. If the market demands for human albumin or IVIG cannot be sustained in the future or if there is substantial price decrease in both products, our operating results could be adversely affected.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information that would be required to be disclosed in Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Chao Ming Zhao, and our Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Y. Tristan Kuo, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2011. Based on that evaluation, Mr. Zhao and Mr. Kuo concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2011.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company, as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Internal control over financial reporting refers to the process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and includes those policies and procedures that:

  (1)

pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

     
  (2)

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management and directors; and

     
  (3)

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making this evaluation, management used the framework established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or COSO. The COSO framework summarizes each of the components of a company’s internal control system, including (i) the control environment, (ii) risk assessment, (iii) control activities, (iv) information and communication, and (v) monitoring. Based on our evaluation we determined that, as of December 31, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2011.

Our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011 has been audited by our registered public accounting firm as stated in their report which is included in Part II, Item 9A of this form 10-K.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
China Biologic Products, Inc.:

We have audited China Biologic Products, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). China Biologic Products, Inc.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

45


We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, China Biologic Products, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of China Biologic Products, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, and changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the years then ended, and our report dated March 12, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

In Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, management identified ineffective review controls on the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and derivative instrument valuation, because of lack of resources with expertise in non-recurring transactions, which resulted in inadvertently omission of the fair value of embedded option in warrants and misinterpretation of U.S. GAAP regarding the recognition of deferred tax liabilities upon business combination. During fiscal 2011, we completed the remediation of this material weakness by acquiring services of third party consulting expertise in the area of derivative instrument valuation and independent tax accountant. In addition, we expanded the size of internal audit department and increased the frequency of internal control testing during the year ended December 31, 2011. We have also increased internal and external US GAAP training to our accounting personnel and strengthened the management review of financial reporting.

Other than the control improvements discussed above, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or as reasonably likely to materially affect , our internal control over financial reporting.

The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.

Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of China Biologic Products, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2009 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

CHINA BIOLOGIC PRODUCTS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2011 2010 AND 2009

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION BACKGROUND AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

China Biologic Products, Inc. (the “Company” or “CBP”, formerly known as “GRC Holdings, Inc.”) was originally incorporated in the State of Texas in 1989. On July 19, 2006, the Company and its then principle shareholders entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with Taibang Biological Ltd. (“Taibang Biological”, formerly known as “Logic Express Ltd.”), a privately held investment holding company incorporated on January 6, 2006 under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, and all the shareholders of Taibang Biological (the “Taibang Biological Shareholders”). Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Taibang Biological Shareholders transferred to the Company all of their shares in exchange for 18,484,715 shares of the Company’s common shares (the “Share Exchange”). As a result of the Share Exchange, Taibang Biological became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Taibang Biological Shareholders received approximately 96.1% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares. Immediately prior to the date of the Share Exchange, the Company was a publicly listed shell entity with no operations and, Taibang Biological, through its 82.76% owned subsidiary, Shandong Taibang Biological Products Co. Ltd. (“Shandong Taibang”), was engaged in the research, development, commercialization, manufacture and sale of human blood products primarily in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC” or China). The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, equivalent to the issuance of stock by Taibang Biological for the net monetary assets of the Company accompanied by a recapitalization. After consummation of the Share Exchange, the Company converted into a Delaware corporation and changed its name to China Biologic Products, Inc. on January 10, 2007.

The Company, through its PRC subsidiaries, is a biopharmaceutical company that is principally engaged in the research, development, manufacturing and sales of plasma-based pharmaceutical products in the PRC. The PRC subsidiaries own and operate plasma stations that purchase and collect plasma from individual donors for a fee. The plasma is processed into finished goods after passing through a series of fractionating processes. All of the Company’s products are prescription medicines that require government approval before the products are sold to customers. The Company primarily sells its products to hospitals and inoculation centers directly or through distributors in the PRC.

On September 26, 2008, the Company, through Taibang Biological, entered into an equity purchase agreement with Guiyang Dalin Biologic Technologies Co. Ltd. (“Dalin”, formerly known as “Chongqing Dalin Biologic Technologies Co. Ltd.”), an investment holding company, and certain equity owners of Dalin, to acquire 90% equity interest of Dalin. The purchase consideration for the 90% equity interest in Dalin was RMB 194,400,000 (or approximately $28,479,600) in cash.

At the date of entering into the equity purchase agreement, Dalin held 54% equity interest in Guiyang Qianfeng Biological Products Co., Ltd. (“Qianfeng”), which subsequently changed its name to Guizhou Taibang Biological Products Co., Ltd. (“Guizhou Taibang”) on December 30, 2010. Guizhou Taibang is in compliance with the Good Manufacturing Practices certified by State Food and Drug Administration (“SFDA”) for the manufacturing, sale and distribution of Human Albumin, Human Immunoglobulin, Human Intravenous Immunoglobulin, Human Hepatitis B Immunoglobulin, Human Tetanus Immunoglobulin and Human Rabies Immune Globulin.

The Company completed the acquisition of a 90% equity interest in Dalin in January 2009. On December 28, 2009, the Company’s 90% equity interest in Dalin was transferred to Taibang Biotech (Shandong) Co., Ltd. (“Taibang Biotech”, formerly known as “Logic Management Consulting (China) Co., Ltd.”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company established Taibang Biotech in December 2009, for the purpose of being the holding company of the 90% equity interest in Dalin.

On August 5, 2010, Taibang Biotech established a wholly-owned subsidiary, Logic Taibang Biological Institute (Beijing), which subsequently changed its name to Taibang (Beijing) Pharmaceutical Research Institute Co., Ltd. (“Taibang Beijing”) on January 12, 2011. The registered capital of Taibang Beijing is $149,700 (RMB 1 million). Taibang Beijing is principally engaged in the research and development of plasma-based pharmaceutical products. The purpose of setting up Taibang Beijing is to coordinate the research and development activities of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries.

On January 13, 2010, Shandong Taibang acquired the remaining 20% equity interest in Fangcheng Plasma Company from the noncontrolling interest shareholder (see Note 21). Since the additional purchase of 20% equity interest did not result in a change of the Company’s control over Fangcheng Plasma Company, this transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction. After the acquisition, Fangcheng Plasma Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shandong Taibang.

F-8


On July 8, 2010, Taibang Biotech entered into an equity purchase agreement with Shandong Taibang, to acquire 100% of the equity interest in Shandong Taibang Medical Company (“Taibang Medical”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shandong Taibang. The cash consideration of the 100% equity interest in Taibang Medical was RMB 6,440,000 (approximately $947,327). The transaction was completed on September 23, 2010. The purpose of this transaction is to effectively acquire the 17.24% equity interest in Taibang Medical indirectly held by the noncontrolling interest holder of Shandong Taibang, and to enable the Company to consolidate its resources in the sales and marketing of Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang’s products. This transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction.

On November 11, 2010, the Company established Qianfeng Biological Science Company (“Qianfeng Biologic”) for the purpose of research and development of placenta based products. As of December 31, 2011, Qianfeng Biologic, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Guizhou Taibang, did not commence operations.

On January 4, 2011, Taibang Biotech entered into an equity transfer agreement (the “Equity Transfer Agreement”) with Shaowen Fan, a PRC individual. Pursuant to the Equity Transfer Agreement, Taibang Biotech agreed to acquire the remaining 10% noncontrolling interest in Dalin from Shaowen Fan for a purchase price of RMB 50 million (approximately $7,635,000). The transaction was completed on January 26, 2011 and Dalin became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Taibang Biotech. The carrying amount of noncontrolling interest in Dalin at time of the transaction was $2,870,065. The excess of the purchase price over the carrying amount of corresponding noncontrolling interest was recorded in additional paid-in capital.

On July 15, 2011, the Guizhou Provincial Health Department issued the revised “Plan for Guizhou Provincial Blood Collection Institutional Setting (2011-2014)”, which stipulates the number of counties that are permitted to set up plasma collection stations in Guizhou Province is limited to four counties (the “Guizhou Plan”). As a result of the implementation of the Guizhou Plan, the licenses of four plasma collection stations in Dan Zhai, Wei Ning, San Sui and Na Yong counties owned by Guizhou Taibang were not renewed after their respective plasma collection permits expired at the end of July 2011. The licenses of its plasma collection stations in Pu Ding and Huang Ping counties (locations permitted under the Guizhou Plan) were renewed until July 31, 2013. In addition, Guizhou Taibang’s inactive plasma collection station in Guizhou Province that was purchased from the government in 2007 is unlikely to obtain a license as planned, because it is in Zhengyuan County, a county not included in the Guizhou Plan.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and include the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of fixed assets; the allowance for doubtful accounts; the fair value determinations of financial and equity instruments and stock compensation awards, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination; the realizability of deferred tax assets and inventories; the recoverability of goodwill, intangible asset, land use right and property, plant and equipment; and accruals for income tax uncertainties and other contingencies. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in those estimates and assumptions.

Foreign Currency Translation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are reported in US dollar. The financial position and results of operations of the Company’s subsidiaries in the PRC are measured using the Renminbi, which is the local and functional currency of these entities. Assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries are translated at the prevailing exchange rate in effect at each period end. Income statement accounts are translated at the average rate of exchange during the period. Translation adjustments are included in other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

F-9


Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the product has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company mainly sells human albumin and human immunoglobulin to hospitals, inoculation centers and pharmaceutical distributors. For all sales, the Company requires a contract or purchase order, which specify pricing, quantity and product specifications. Delivery of the product occurs when the customer receives the product, which is when the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred. A signed customer acceptance form evidences delivery of the product. Sales are presented net of any discounts given to customers. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, there was no sales return from the customers.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies the provisions of ASC Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements, for fair value measurements of financial assets and financial liabilities and for fair value measurements of nonfinancial items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements. ASC Subtopic 820-10 also establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Company has included these disclosures in Note 19 of the consolidated financial statements.

ASC Subtopic 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

ASC Subtopic 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC Subtopic 820-10 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

The level in the fair value hierarchy within which a fair value measurement in its entirety falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and demand deposits. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three-month or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company maintained cash at banks in the following locations:

    December 31, 2011     December 31, 2010  
PRC, excluding Hong Kong $  88,721,453   $  64,332,623  
Hong Kong   -     6,799  
U.S.   236,373     103,894  
       Total $  88,957,826   $  64,443,316  

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses inherent in its accounts receivable portfolio. In establishing the required allowance, management considers historical losses, the customers’ financial condition, the amount of accounts receivables in dispute, the accounts receivables aging and customers’ payment patterns. The Company reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts monthly. Past due balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

F-10


Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the weighted average method. Cost of work in progress and finished goods comprise direct materials, direct production costs and an allocation of production overheads based on normal operating capacity.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:

Buildings 30 years
Machinery and equipment 10 years
Furniture, fixtures, office equipment and vehicles 5-10 years

Equity method investment

Investment in an investee in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not have a controlling interest is accounted for using the equity method. Significant influence is generally presumed to exist when the Company has an ownership interest in the voting stock between 20% and 50%, and other factors, such as representation on the board of directors and participation in policy-making processes, are considered in determining whether the equity method of accounting is appropriate. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company’s share of the investee’s results of operations is included in other income (expense) in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income. The Company recognizes a loss if it is determined that other than temporary decline in the value of the investment exists.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization expense is recognized on the straight-line basis over the assets’ estimated useful life, as the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are used up cannot be reliably determined. The estimated useful live is the period over which the intangible asset is expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the future cash flows of the Company. The Company has no intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. The estimate useful lives of intangible assets are as follows:

Permits and licenses 10 years
GMP Certificate 5.8 years
Long-term customer-relationship 4 years

Land use rights

Land use rights represent the exclusive right to occupy and use a piece of land in the PRC for a specified contractual term. Land use rights are carried at cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the lives of the rights ranging from 39 to 50 years.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but is instead tested for impairment. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually at reporting unit level in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other. The goodwill impairment test is a two-step test. Under the first step, the fair value of the reporting unit is compared with its carrying value (including goodwill). If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an indication of goodwill impairment exists for the reporting unit and the enterprise must perform step two of the impairment test (measurement). Under step two, an impairment loss is recognized for any excess of the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill over the implied fair value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation and the residual fair value after this allocation is the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill. The Company determines it has one reporting unit, which is the Company as a whole. Fair value of the reporting unit is determined using the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, step two does not need to be performed.

The Company performs its annual impairment review of goodwill at each December 31, and when a triggering event occurs between annual impairment tests. The Company recognized a goodwill impairment loss of $18,160,281 for the year ended December 31, 2011 as described in Note 9. No impairment of goodwill was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 were $3,978,233, $2,336,126 and $1,662,690, respectively. These expenses include the costs of the Company’s internal research and development activities.

Product Liability

The Company’s products are covered by two separate product liability insurances each with coverages of approximately $3,148,000 (RMB 20,000,000) for the products sold by Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang, respectively. There were no product liability claims as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax loss and tax credit carryforwards. 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. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company recognizes in the consolidated financial statements the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the position. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in general and administrative expenses.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award and recognizes the cost over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, which generally is the vesting period.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets Subsections of FASB ASC Subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment - Overall, long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and purchased intangible asset subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, an impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary. The Company recognized a loss on abandonment and write-off of long-lived assets of $6,603,028 for the year ended December 31, 2011 as described in Note 6 and Note 7.

Net income per Share

Basic net income per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income attributable to the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share of common stock reflects the potential dilution that would occur upon the exercise of outstanding warrants, options and the conversion of the convertible notes. Common share equivalents are excluded from the computation of the diluted net income per share of common stock when their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Segment Reporting

The Company has one operating segment, which is the manufacture and sales of human blood products. Substantially all of the Company’s operations and customers are located in the PRC, and therefore, no geographic information is presented.

F-12


Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to loss contingencies, such as legal proceedings and claims arising out of its business, that cover a wide range of matters, including, among others, government investigations and tax matters. An accrual for a loss contingency is recognized when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2011-05, Comprehensive income (Topic 220), Presentation of Comprehensive Income. ASU 2011-05 increases the prominence of other comprehensive income in financial statements. Under this ASU, an entity will have the option to present the components of net income and comprehensive income in either one or two consecutive financial statements. The ASU eliminates the option in U.S. GAAP to present other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity. An entity should apply the ASU retrospectively. For a public entity, the ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company early adopted ASU 2011-05 in the year ended December 31, 2011.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350). ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If an entity concludes it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it need not perform the two-step impairment test. The ASU is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted.

NOTE 9 – GOODWILL

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 is as follows:

    For the Years ended  
    December 31,     December 31,     December 31,  
    2011     2010     2009  
                   
Balance as of January 1 $  17,778,231   $  17,200,728   $  -  
Addition   -     -     17,203,983  
Impairment loss   (18,160,281 )   -     -  
Foreign currency exchange difference   382,050     577,503     (3,255
Balance as of December 31 $  -   $  17,778,231   $  17,200,728  

In accordance with FASB ASC Subtopic 350-20, Goodwill (“ASC 350-20”), goodwill is required to be tested for impairment annually and if an event or conditions occur that is more likely than not would cause the fair value of a reporting unit to be less than its carrying value.

The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment test on December 31 and when a triggering event occurs between annual impairment tests. As disclosed in Note 1, four active plasma stations of the Company were closed from August 1, 2011 as a result of a regulatory order. Following the closure, the Company revised its earnings guidance for the year of 2011 and experienced incremental decline in its stock price and market capitalization in the third quarter of 2011. Therefore the Company performed goodwill impairment test as of September 30, 2011 to identify if goodwill should be impaired.

F-15


A two step process is used to test for goodwill impairment under ASC 350-20. The first step is to determine if there is an indication of impairment by comparing the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value including existing goodwill. Goodwill is considered impaired if the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds the estimated fair value. If an indication of impairment exists under the first step, a second step is performed to determine the amount of the impairment. This involves calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit to all assets and liabilities other than goodwill and comparing it to the carrying amount of goodwill.

The fair value of the reporting unit for step one was determined based on the quoted market price of the Company’s common stock. The first step of the impairment test concluded that the carrying value of the Company’s reporting unit exceeded its fair value. As a result, the Company performed the second step of the goodwill impairment test for its reporting unit. The Company determined that the implied fair value of goodwill was nil. Therefore, a goodwill impairment loss of $18,160,281 was recognized in the quarter ended September 30, 2011. No impairment was recognized in the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

The testing of goodwill for impairment requires the Company to make significant estimates about its future performance and cash flows, as well as other assumptions. These estimates can be affected by numerous factors, including changes in economic, industry or market conditions, changes in business operations, changes in competition or potential changes in the share price of its common stock and market capitalization.

NOTE 10 – EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENT

The Company’s equity method investment as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 represented 35% equity interest investment in Xi’an Huitian Blood Products Co., Ltd. (“Huitian”).

In October 2008, Shandong Taibang entered into an equity purchase agreement with one of the equity owners of Huitian (“Seller”) to acquire 35% equity interest in Huitian, for cash consideration of $6,454,800 (or RMB 44,000,000). In connection with this transaction, in October 2008, Taibang Biological entered into an entrust agreement (the “Entrust Agreement”) with Shandong Taibang and the noncontrolling interest holder of Shandong Taibang, pursuant to which, Taibang Biological would pay the cash consideration, including interest, of $6,502,901 to the Seller, and would bear the risks and benefits as a 35% equity owner in Huitian. In addition, Taibang Biological would pay Shandong Taibang $18,204 (or RMB 120,000) per year as compensation for the administrative costs of Shandong Taibang’s holding of the 35% equity interest in Huitian on behalf of Taibang Biological. Such amount paid and received is eliminated upon consolidation. Taibang Biological agreed to indemnify the noncontrolling interest holder of Shandong Taibang for any loss arising from the Entrust Agreement and has pledged the Company’s equity interest in Shandong Taibang as collateral against such loss.

The excess of cost over the Company’s share of net assets of equity method investees is $1,170,921 and $1,145,966 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. This equity method goodwill is not amortized; however, the investment is reviewed for impairment.

As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, significant temporary differences between the tax basis and financial statement basis of assets and liabilities that gave rise to deferred taxes were principally related to the following:

The deferred tax assets of $5,328,444 for tax loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2011, of which $1,571,284 and $3,757,160 relate to tax loss carryforwards of certain PRC subsidiaries and the Company, respectively. For PRC income tax purposes, certain of the Company’s PRC subsidiaries had tax loss carryforwards of $6,285,136, of which $1,118,311 and $5,166,825 would expire in December 2015 and 2016, respectively, if unused. For United States federal income tax purposes, the Company had tax loss carryforwards of approximately $11,050,469, of which $1,268,307, $614,982, $1,113,597, $1,405,718, $2,350,326 and $4,297,539 would expire on December 31, 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030 and 2031, respectively, if unused. In view of their cumulative losses positions, management determined it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets of these PRC subsidiaries and the Company will not be realized, and therefore full valuation allowances were provided as of December 31, 2011 and 2010. The increase in valuation allowance during the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 was $830,497, $2,806,835 and $477,944, respectively. Management believes it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of the deferred tax assets, net of the valuation allowances, as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

According to the prevailing PRC income tax law and relevant regulations, dividends relating to earnings accumulated beginning on January 1, 2008 that are received by non-PRC-resident enterprises from PRC-resident enterprises are subject to withholding tax at 10%, unless reduced by tax treaties or similar arrangement. Dividends relating to undistributed earnings generated prior to January 1, 2008 are exempt from such withholding tax. Further, dividends received by the Company from its overseas subsidiaries are subject to the U.S. federal income tax at 34%, less any qualified foreign tax credits. Due to the Company’s plan and intention of reinvesting its earnings in its overseas business, the Company has not provided for the related deferred tax liabilities on undistributed earnings of $103 million and $90 million as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. It is not practicable to estimate the amounts of unrecognized deferred tax liabilities thereof.

As of January 1, 2009 and for each of the years ended December 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011, the Company and its subsidiaries did not have any unrecognized tax benefits, and therefore no interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits were accrued. The Company does not expect that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly within the next 12 months.

The Company and each of its PRC subsidiaries file income tax returns in the United States and the PRC, respectively. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax examination by tax authorities for tax years beginning in 2007. According to the PRC Tax Administration and Collection Law, the statute of limitations is three years if the underpayment of taxes is due to computational errors made by the taxpayer or the withholding agent. The statute of limitations is extended to five years under special circumstances where the underpayment of taxes is more than RMB100,000 ($15,000). In the case of transfer pricing issues, the statute of limitations is ten years. There is no statute of limitations in the case of tax evasion. The PRC tax returns for the Company’s PRC subsidiaries are open to examination by the PRC tax authorities for the tax years beginning in 2006.

Convertible notes $  -   $  1,196,233  

On June 5, 2009, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to the Investors 3.8% Senior Secured Convertible Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $9,554,140 (the “Notes”) and warrants (the “Warrants” and together with the Notes, the “Subscribed Securities”) to purchase up to 1,194,268 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Warrant Shares” and together with the shares to be converted in the Notes, the “Underlying Securities”). The transaction closed on June 10, 2009.

The coupon rate of the Notes is 3.8% per annum (the “Interest Rate”), payable from the closing until repayment, whether on maturity on June 5, 2011, by acceleration or otherwise. Interest on the Notes is due and payable in cash semi-annually on September 30 and March 31 of each year, commencing on September 30, 2009. The Company has the option to pay the interest due through the issuance of its common stock at a conversion price of $4.00 per share. If the Company defaults in the payment of the principal or interest on the Notes when due, subject to the Investors’ election, the Company is obligated to either (a) redeem all or a portion of the Notes pursuant to the redemption rights discussed below or (b) pay interest on such defaulted amount at a rate equal to the Interest Rate plus 2.0% . The Notes are convertible at any time before maturity into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $4.00 per share, subject to certain adjustments as specified in the Purchase Agreement.

F-20


The Warrants have a term of 3 years, with an exercise price of $4.80 per share, subject to adjustments as provided in the Warrants, from time to time pursuant to anti-dilution and other customary provisions, and are exercisable by the Investors at any time after the date on which their related Notes are converted, except that if any of the Notes is partially converted, the Investors could only exercise the corresponding portion of the Warrants.

The Company has granted the Investors demand and piggy-back registration rights with respect to the Underlying Securities, pursuant to a registration rights agreement among the Company and the Investors.

The Company paid its placement agent a cash fee, representing 6.1% of the proceeds received in connection with the issuance of the Notes, and a 3-year warrant to purchase 93,750 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share. The aggregate fee of $870,417 paid to the placement agent, including the fair value of the warrant issued, was deferred and amortized over the life of the Notes.

The Notes are secured by 3,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company held by Siu Ling Chan (“Ms. Chan”), the Company’s board of directors chairwoman and a principal shareholder of the Company, pursuant to the terms of a Guarantee and Pledge Agreement signed among the Company, the Investors and Ms. Chan. To induce Ms. Chan to enter into the Guarantee and Pledge Agreement with the Investors, the Company agreed to indemnify Ms. Chan for all damages, liabilities, losses and expenses of any kind (“Losses”), which may be sustained or suffered by Ms. Chan, arising out of or in connection with any enforcement action instituted by the Investors pursuant to the Guarantee and Pledge Agreement. The Company’s indemnification obligation is limited to Losses that arise as the result of any negligent or unlawful conduct of the Company that is caused unilaterally by the Company and is beyond Ms. Chan’s control in her capacity as a director of the Company, and will not exceed the market value of the pledged shares as of the closing of the transaction. On December 22, 2009, two of the Company’s Notes holders converted $1,000,000 of their Notes into an aggregate of 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. On January 13, 2010, these two Notes holders converted an additional $1,054,140 of their remaining Notes into an aggregate of 263,535 shares of the Company’s common stock. On November 10, 2010, another Notes holder converted $2,800,000 of Notes into an aggregate of 700,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. On June 10, 2011, two Notes holders converted $4,700,000 of their Notes into an aggregate of 1,175,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. As of December 31, 2011, all Notes were converted.

The terms of the Notes and Warrants include price adjustment provisions under which the conversion price for the Notes and the exercise price for the Warrants could be affected by future equity offerings undertaken by the Company. As a result, the embedded conversion option in the Notes and Warrants are not considered indexed to the Company’s own stock, and therefore are accounted for as derivatives. The economic characteristics and risks of the embedded conversion option in the Notes are not considered clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host debt contract. The embedded conversion option in the Notes met all of the characteristics of a derivative instrument pursuant to ASC Subtopic 815-10. In accordance with ASC Subtopic 815-15, the embedded conversion option in the Notes was separated from the host debt contract and accounted for as a derivative.

Total principal of the Notes in the amount of $9,554,140 was first allocated to the embedded conversion option in the Notes and to the Warrants based on their fair value on the issuance date of $6,552,505 and $3,826,896, respectively. As a result, the Company recognized an initial charge to income of $825,261 (see Note 15) for the amount by which the fair value of these liabilities exceeded the face amount of the Notes for the year ended December 31, 2009. All changes in the fair value of the embedded conversion option in the Notes and Warrants are recognized in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income until such time as the Notes are converted or redeemed and Warrants are exercised or expired.

The residual amount is allocated to the debt instrument in the amount of $0.01 and is accreted to the principal amount of the Notes using an effective annual interest rate of approximately 365% with the related interest expense recognized in the statements of comprehensive income. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, the interest expenses were $3,582,648, $1,849,493 and $302,010, respectively.

NOTE 15 – WARRANTS AND OPTIONS

Warrants

In connection with the issuance of the Notes (see Note 14), the Company issued warrants to purchase up to 1,194,268 and 93,750 shares of common stock of the Company to the Investors and placement agent, respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, the placement agents executed cashless exercise of all the 93,750 placement agent warrants and received 37,250 shares of the Company’s common stock.

The fair values of the warrants outstanding as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 were determined based on the Binominal option pricing model, using the following key assumptions:

    December 31, 2011     December 31, 2010  
             
Expected dividend yield   0%     0%  
Risk-free interest rate   0.05%     0.43%  
Time to maturity (in years)   0.43     1.43  
Expected volatility   80.0%     70.0%  
Fair value of underlying common shares (per share) $  10.46   $  16.39  

Changes in the management’s estimates and assumptions regarding the expected volatility and valuation of Company’s common stock could significantly impact the estimated fair values of the warrants determined under the Binominal option pricing model and, as a result, the net income and the net income attributable to the Company’s stockholders.

Change in fair value of derivative liabilities for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2010 and 2011 is set forth below:

The volatility of the Company’s common stock was estimated by management based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk free interest rate was based on Treasury Constant Maturity Rates published by the U.S. Federal Reserve for periods applicable to the estimated term of the options. The expected dividend yield was based on the Company’s current and expected dividend policy. Changes in the management’s estimates and assumptions regarding the expected volatility and valuation of the Company’s common stock could significantly impact the estimated fair values of the share options determined under the Black-Scholes option pricing model and, as a result, the net income and the net income attributable to the Company’s stockholders. The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted was $8.95 and $10.70 during 2011 and 2010, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 was $635,250, $386,332 and $437,474, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, the Company recorded stock compensation expense of $4,896,232, $2,341,783 and $62,281, respectively, in general and administrative expenses. As of December 31, 2011, approximately $5,379,040 of stock compensation expense with respect to non-vested stock-based awards is to be recognized over approximately 2.5 years.

NOTE 18 – BUSINESS COMBINATION

As disclosed under Note 1, on September 26, 2008, the Company entered into an equity purchase agreement with Dalin and certain equity owners of Dalin (“Equity Owners of Dalin”), to purchase 90% equity interest in Dalin, for cash consideration of RMB194,400,000 (approximately $28.9 million) (“Consideration”), payable in four installments. Dalin in turns held a 54% equity interest in Qianfeng and subsequently renamed as Guizhou Taibang on December 30, 2010. Pursuant to the equity purchase agreement (i) if the Company pays RMB 174,960,000 (approximately $25.6 million), representing 90% of the Consideration, on or before April 7, 2009, the Company will be entitled to share Dalin’s portion of the profit generated by Qianfeng starting from January 1, 2009, and (ii) if the Company fails to pay RMB174,960,000 on or before April 7, 2009, the profit generated by Qianfeng from January 1, 2009 until the day of payment of RMB174,960,000 will be shared by the Company and the Equity Owners of Dalin on a proportionate basis. In addition, the final installment, representing the 10% of the Consideration, should be paid on or before April 9, 2010 with interest accruing at 5.31% per annum.

The Company initiated payment of the third installment of the Consideration on April 7, 2009, in accordance with the instructions provided by Equity Owners of Dalin, which was subsequently paid on April 8 and April 14, 2009. The payment was deemed by Equity Owners of Dalin to have fulfilled the Company’s obligations under the equity purchase agreement. As a result, the Company was entitled to all the rights and privileges of a 90% shareholder in Dalin, including the right to receive its pro rata share of the profits generated by Dalin’s 54% owned subsidiary, Qianfeng, since January 2009. As disclosed in note 21, the Company’s effective equity interest in Qianfeng is subject to a possible dilution to as low as 41.3%, if potential investors of Qianfeng prevail in a lawsuit to obtain additional equity interests in Qianfeng, or to 52.45%, if the Company decides to ratify a dissenting Qianfeng shareholder’s request to register its additional capital infusion. The Company paid a substantial portion of the final installment, representing 10% of the Consideration, on April 9, 2010.

According to the equity purchase agreement, as amended, the Company can exercise its shareholder’s rights, as well as to take control over all the corporate seals and license of Dalin upon the payment of the second installment, which was paid by the Company on December 14, 2008. However, Dalin’s related voting power over its subsidiary, Qianfeng, was not transferred to the Company until the Company’s nominees gained control of the board of directors and the management positions of Qianfeng on January 16, 2009. The Company’s four nominees were elected to Qianfeng’s seven-member Board of Directors in a special meeting on January 16, 2009. In addition, on the same date, Qianfeng’s Board of Directors elected a new management team consisting of all Company’s appointees, including Chief Executive Officer, Executive Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Director of Sales. Therefore, the Company believes that January 16, 2009, the date on which the Company legally obtained control, acquired the assets, assumed the liabilities and became entitled to Dalin’s share of the profit generated by Qianfeng, as the acquisition date. The results of Dalin’s and its subsidiaries’ operations from January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2009 are included in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

The following table summarizes the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition:

F-25


The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were determined by management with the assistance of an independent appraisal. The fair values of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and noncontrolling interest were primarily estimated using a combination of income approach, cost approach and market approach valuation techniques. A goodwill of $17.2 million, representing the excess of the consideration and fair value of noncontrolling interest over the fair values assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed, was recognized at the acquisition date. The goodwill is mainly for the synergies and cost reduction expected to be achieved. The acquired goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes. The transaction costs of the acquisition were not material, and have been recorded in general and administrative expenses.

Legal proceedings

Bobai County Collection Station

In January 2007, the Company’s PRC subsidiary, Shandong Taibang, advanced $413,697 (RMB3.0 million) to Feng Lin, the 20% noncontrolling interest shareholder of Fang Cheng Plasma Company, an indirect majority owned subsidiary of the Company, for the purpose of establishing or acquiring a plasma collection station. Mr. Lin and Shandong Taibang intended to establish the Bobai Kangan Plasma Collection Co., Ltd. (“Bobai”) in Bobai County, Guangxi. On January 18, 2007, Shandong Taibang signed a letter of intent to acquire the assets of the Bobai Plasma Collection Station, which was co-owned by Mr. Lin and Mr. Keliang Huang. However, in January 2007, Hua Lan Biological Engineering Co., Ltd. (“Hua Lan”) filed suit in the District Court of Hong Qi District, Xin Xiang City, Henan Province, alleging that Feng Lin, Keliang Huang and Shandong Taibang established and/or sought to operate the Bobai Plasma Collection Station using a permit for collecting and supplying human plasma in Bobai County, that was originally granted to Hua Lan by the government of the Guangxi region, without Hua Lan’s permission. The establishment and registration of Bobai was never realized as a result of this law suit. On January 29, 2007, on Hua Lan’s motion, the District Court entered an order to freeze funds in the amount of approximately $386,100 (RMB3,000,000) held by the defendants in the case, including approximately $65,750 (RMB500,000) in funds held in Shandong Taibang’s bank account in Tai’an City. A hearing was held on June 25, 2007 and judgment was entered against the defendants along with a $226,780 (RMB1,700,000) joint financial judgment. The Company appealed the District Court judgment to the Xinxiang City Intermediate Court. In November 2007, the Xinxiang City Intermediate Court affirmed the judgment against the three defendants and increased the amount of the joint financial judgment to approximately $405,954 (RMB3,000,000).

In January 2008, Hua Lan enforced the judgment granted by the Xinxiang City Intermediate Court to freeze the Company’s bank accounts. Shandong Taibang filed a separate action against Hua Lan before the Tai’an City District Court to seek recovery of any losses in connection with Hua Lan’s claim and to request that the Tai’an City District Court preserve Hua Lan’s property or freeze up to approximately $411,300 (RMB 3 million) of Hua Lan’s assets to secure the return of such funds to the Company. The matter is currently pending before the Intermediate Court of Tai’an City. Pending the outcome of the proceedings, Shandong Taibang increased its loss contingency reserve during its fourth quarter of 2007 from approximately $75,593 (RMB566,667) to $133,400 (RMB1,000,000) to cover its share of the enforcement of this judgment. During the fourth quarter of 2008, full amount of the judgment, including Feng Lin and Keliang Huang’s portions of the judgment and the related fees, of approximately $456,222 (RMB3,109,900) was withdrawn from Shandong Taibang’s account. The Company recorded Feng Lin and Keliang Huang’s portion of the judgment, of approximately $304,143 (RMB2,073,234), as receivable as a result of the withdrawal. As of December 31, 2008, the Company determined that it is unlikely that the Company will be able to recover such receivable from those two individuals and wrote off the receivable as bad debt expense. In January 2010, Feng Lin transferred his 20% equity in Fang Cheng Plasma Company as a repayment for such receivable he owed to the Company. As a result, the Company is now the indirect 100% owner of the Fang Cheng Plasma Company.

In October 2009, Shandong Taibang appealed to the High Court of Henan Province requesting the court to reverse judgments from the Hong Qi District Court based on Shandong Taibang’s belief that Hua Lan’s involvement in Bobai was in violation of PRC Blood Products Regulations since Hua Lan did not invest, as Shandong Taibang did, in Bobai as required by the Regulation. The Company is awaiting the judgment of the Henan High Court as of the date of this report. In light of the foregoing, it is unlikely that the Company’s plan acquisition of the assets of Bobai will go forward.

Dispute among Guizhou Taibang Shareholders over Raising Additional Capital

On May 28, 2007, a 91% majority of Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders approved a plan to raise additional capital from private strategic investors through the issuance of an additional 20,000,000 shares of Guizhou Taibang equity interests at RMB2.80 per share. The plan required all existing Guizhou Taibang shareholders to waive their rights of first refusal to subscribe for the additional shares. The remaining 9% minority holder of Guizhou Taibang’s shares, the Guizhou Jie’an Company, or Jie’an, did not support the plan and did not agree to waive its right of first refusal. On May 29, 2007, the majority shareholders caused Guizhou Taibang to sign an Equity Purchase Agreement with certain investors, pursuant to which the investors agreed to invest an aggregate of RMB50,960,000 (approximately $7,475,832) in exchange for 18,200,000 shares, or 21.4%, of Guizhou Taibang’s equity interests. At the same time, Jie’an also subscribed for 1,800,000 shares, representing its 9% pro rata share of the 20,000,000 shares being offered. The proceeds from all parties were received by Guizhou Taibang in accordance with the agreement.

In June 2007, Jie’an brought suit in the High Court of Guizhou province, China, against Guizhou Taibang and the three other original Guizhou Taibang shareholders, alleging the illegality of the Equity Purchase Agreement. In its complaint, Jie’an alleged that it had a right to acquire the shares waived by the original Guizhou Taibang shareholders and offered to the investors in connection with the Equity Purchase Agreement. On September 12, 2008, the Guizhou High Court ruled against Jie’an and sustained the Equity Purchase Agreement. On November 2008, Jie’an appealed the Guizhou High Court judgment to the People’s Supreme Court in Beijing. On May 13, 2009, the People’s Supreme Court sustained the original ruling and denied the rights of first refusal of Jie’an over the additional shares waived by the original Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders. The registration of the new investors as Guizhou Taibang’s shareholders and the related increase in registered capital of Guizhou Taibang with the Administration for Industry and Commerce are still pending. On January 27, 2010, the strategic investors brought suit in the High Court of Guizhou Province against Guizhou Taibang alleging Guizhou Taibang’s failure to register their equity interest in Guizhou Taibang with the local Administration for Industry and Commerce (“AIC”) and requesting the distribution of their share of Guizhou Taibang’s dividends. Dalin was also joined as a co-defendant as it is the majority shareholder and exercises control over Guizhou Taibang’s day-to-day operations. The Company does not expect the strategic investors to prevail because, upon evaluation of the Equity Purchase Agreement, the Company believes that the Equity Purchase Agreement is void due to certain invalid pre-conditions and the absence of shareholder authorization of the initial investment. In the event that Guizhou Taibang is required to return their original investment amount to the strategic investors, Guizhou Taibang has set aside the strategic investors’ initial fund along with RMB12,203,280 (approximately $1,920,796) in accrued interest, and RMB509,600 (approximately $80,212) for the 1% penalty imposed by the agreement for any breach as of December 31, 2011. If strategic investors prevail in their suit, Dalin’s interests in Guizhou Taibang could be reduced to approximately 41.3% . The High Court of Guizhou heard the case on April 8, 2010 and encouraged, and accepted by both parties, to settle the dispute outside the court but both parties failed to reach a mutual agreeable term.

On October 14, 2010, the High Court of Guizhou ruled in favor of the Company and denied the strategic investors’ right as shareholders of Guizhou Taibang, as well as their entitlement to the dividends. In light of the Guizhou ruling, in November 2010 the Company returned the proceeds in the amount of RMB 11,200,000 (approximately $1,699,040) to one of the strategic investors. On October 26, 2010, the other strategic investors appealed to, and subsequently accepted by, the PRC Supreme Court in Beijing on the ruling. On October 9, 2011, the PRC Supreme Court overruled the decision of the High Court of Guizhou and remanded the suit to the High Court of Guizhou for retrial. On December 29, 2011, High Court of Guizhou accepted the case for retrial. On January 5, 2012, the strategic investors re-filed their case to the High Court of Guizhou requesting, in addition to the share distribution, the distribution of dividends and interest in the amount of RMB 18,349,345 (approximately $2,888,187) and RMB 2,847,000 (approximately $448,118), respectively. The Company is awaiting the hearing as of the date of this report.

During the second quarter of 2010, Jie’an requested that Guizhou Taibang register its 1.8 million shares of additional capital infusion with the local AIC, pursuant to the Equity Purchase Agreement, and such request was approved by the majority shareholders of Guizhou Taibang in a shareholders meeting held in the second quarter of 2010. However, the Board of Directors of the Company is withholding its required ratification of the shareholders’ approval of Jie’an’s request until the outcome of the ongoing litigations. If the Company decides to ratify the approval, Dalin’s ownership in Guizhou Taibang will be diluted from 54% to 52.54% and Jie’an may be entitled to receive its pro rata share of Guizhou Taibang’s profits from the prior 4.5 years.

Guizhou Taibang’s Guarantee to a Third Party

In 2007, as a condition to purchase Huang Ping Plasma Station, Guizhou Taibang entered into an agreement with Guizhou Zhongxin Investment Company, or Zhongxin, in which Guizhou Taibang agreed to repay Zhongxin’s debt out of Guizhou Taibang’s payables to Zhongxin arising from plasma purchased from Zhongxin. In the same agreement, Guizhou Taibang also delivered a guarantee to the Huang Ping County Hospital, the former co-owner of the Huang Ping Plasma Station, that it would pay RMB3,074,342 (approximately, $451,006) in debt that Zhongxin owed to the hospital. On June 1, 2009, Huang Ping Hospital brought suit, in the Huang Ping County People’s Court of Guizhou Province, against Zhongxin for non-payment of its payables and debt due to Huang Ping Hospital and against Guizhou Taibang as the guarantor. On November 2, 2009, the court ruled in favor of the plaintiff and Guizhou Taibang as the guarantor became obligated to repay the Zhongxin’s debt to the Huang Ping Hospital on behalf of Zhongxin. In October 2009, Guizhou Taibang appealed to the Middle Court of Kaili District in Guizhou Province which sustained the original judgment on April 8, 2010. Under the Equity Transfer Agreement pursuant to which the Company acquired a 90% interest in Dalin, the sellers will be responsible, based on their pro rata equity interest in Guizhou Taibang, for damages incurred by Guizhou Taibang from Zhongxin’s debt and that they will repay Dalin their pro rata share of payments made by Guizhou Taibang to creditors in connection with Zhongxin’s debt within 10 days after payment by Guizhou Taibang. The RMB3,074,342 contingent liability and proportionate share of the liability to be recovered from the sellers were properly reflected in the financials as of December 31, 2009. On December 31, 2010, Guizhou Taibang brought suit against Zhongxin in the Intermediate Court of Guiyang City, to recover the full judgment amount of RMB3,074,342 plus court fee of RMB32,340 that Guizhou Taibang has already paid on behalf of Zhongxin.

F-28


On September 13, 2010, Zhongxin countersued the Company for a consideration of RMB500,000 (approximately $74,850) for the alleged loss of its share of income from the Huang Ping Plasma Station since the Company acquired the station in April 2007. The Company believes Zhongxin’s claim is unwarranted since the Company acquired the station from its rightful owner, the Treasury Department of Huangpin County, Guizhou Province.

(3) Guizhou Taibang has payables to Jie’an, a noncontrolling interest holder of Guizhou Taibang, amounting to approximately $1,042,335 (RMB 6,622,205). In 2007, Guizhou Taibang received additional contributions from Jie’an of $962,853 to maintain Jie’an’s equity interest in Guizhou Taibang at 9%. However, due to a legal dispute among shareholders over raising additional capital as discussed in the legal proceeding section (see Note 21), the contribution is subject to be returned to Jie’an. During the second quarter of 2010, Jie’an requested that Guizhou Taibang register its 1.8 million shares of additional capital contribution with the local Administration for Industry and Commerce, pursuant to the equity purchase agreement, and such registration was approved by the majority shareholders of Guizhou Taibang in a shareholders’ meeting held in the second quarter of 2010. However, the Board of Directors of the Company is withholding its required ratification of the shareholders’ approval of Jie’an’s request until the completion of the ongoing litigations. If the Company decided to ratify the approval, Dalin’s ownership in Guizhou Taibang will be diluted from 54% to 52.54% and Jie’an will be entitled to receive its pro rata share of Guizhou Taibang’s profits from the prior 4.5 years.
