EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (Amendment No. 2), which supplements the Current Report on Form 8-K of Sunwin International Neutraceuticals, Inc. as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 12, 2008 and the Current Report on Form 8-K/A (Amendment No. 1) as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 23, 2008, is being filed in response to comments from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

On September 15, 2008 we filed Amendment No. 1 to our Form 10-K to amend our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 29, 2008 (the “Original Filing”). On September 11, 2008 our Board of Directors of determined that our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008 could no longer be relied upon as they contained an error in with regards to the liability of advances from customers, which was overstated by $570,090. The advance was, in fact, an advance from one of our subsidiaries to another subsidiary, that had it been accounted for correctly, would have been eliminated in consolidation. On September 15, 2008 we filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 2) for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008 to include a properly dated audit report and a properly dated Consent of Sherb & Co., LLP which was included as Exhibit 23.1. Due to clerical oversight, both the audit report and exhibit included in Amendment No. 1 failed to include the dual dates of the audit report. In response to oral comments from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, on September 23, 2008 we filed Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 3) for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008 to provide all information under Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data which includes the properly dated audit report together with the restated financial statements which were previously included in Amendment No. 1. On October 7, 2008 we filed our Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 4) to consolidate all of the previously filed amendments into one document for ease of review.

 

Item 4.02

Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Report.

 

In connection with the preparation of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008, and as previously disclosed in both that report and the Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 4), under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer who serves as our principal executive officer and our Chief Financial Officer who serves as our principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by the report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer initially concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to Sunwin International Neutraceuticals, Inc., including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Subsequent to the Evaluation Date, as set forth above on September 11, 2008 our Board of Directors determined that our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008 could no longer be relied upon as they contained an error. This error related to the liability of advances from customers, which was overstated by $570,090. The advance was, in fact, an advance from one of our subsidiaries to another subsidiary, that, had it been accounted for correctly, would have been eliminated in consolidation. As a result of this error, our management has determined that we failed to maintain effective controls to review and reconcile intercompany transactions. Accordingly, management determined that these control deficiencies constitute material weaknesses. A material weakness is a control deficiency or combination of control deficiencies, that result in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected. As a result of this material weakness, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of April 30, 2008. Our management believes that remediation measures are required in order to improve our disclosure controls, due primarily to inadequate staffing within the finance and accounting group in China of a sufficient number of individuals with proper expertise in the proper application of United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, there are no assurances that until such time as we correct these internal deficiencies that our financial statements will not contain errors in future periods.

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended). Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2008. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission “COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008, our management initially concluded that, as of April 30, 2008, our internal control over financial reporting is effective based on these criteria. As set forth above, and as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (Amendment No. 4.), as a result of the restatement of our financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2008 our management has subsequently concluded that our internal control over financial reporting is ineffective.

Item 4.02 Form 8-K

Filed September 23, 2008

File No. 033-10456

 

Attention:

Tabatha Akins, Staff Accountant

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

This firm represents the Company in connection with the above-captioned filing. The Company is in receipt of the staff’s letter of comment dated September 24, 2008 on such filing. Following are the Company’s responses to such comments.

 

Item 4.02(a) Form 8-K filed September 12, 2008

 

1.

Your disclosures reference Amendment Number One to the Form 10-K, filed on September 15, 2008. Please revise your disclosure to reflect Amendment Number Three to Form 10-K filed on September 23, 2008

 

RESPONSE: As we have orally advised Ms. Akins, Amendment No. 3 to the Company’s 10-K did not contain any disclosure for Item 9A.(T) Controls and Procedures. Accordingly, based on our discussion with Ms. Akins, the Company has concurrently filed Amendment No. 4 to its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2008 which contains all changes made in Amendments No. 1, 2 and 3 and updated language within Item 9A.(T) to reference Amendment No. 4. The Company has also filed Amendment No. 2 to the Form 8-K/A which has been revised to reference Amendment No. 4 to the Company’s 10-K in response to the staff’s comment.

 



The Company acknowledges that:

 

 

the company is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing;

 

staff comments or changes to disclosure to staff comments do not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; and

 

the company may not assert staff comments as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.

 

We trust the foregoing sufficiently responds to the staff’s comments.

 

Sincerely,

 

/s/ James M. Schneider
