CHINA GREEN AGRICULTURE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The unaudited consolidated financial statements were prepared by Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the operating results for the respective periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally present in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) were omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results for the three months ended September 30, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending June 30, 2014.

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principle of consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Green New Jersey, Jinong, Gufeng, Tianjuyuan and VIE Yuxing. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Effective June 16, 2013, Yuxing was converted from being a wholly-owned foreign enterprise 100% owned by Jinong to a domestic enterprise 100% owned one natural person, who is not affiliated to the Company (“Yuxing’s Owner”). Effective the same day, Yuxing’s Owner entered into a series of contractual agreements with Jinong pursuant to which Yuxing became the VIE of Jinong.

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. However, actual results could differ materially from those results.

Deferred asset

Deferred asset represents amounts that the Company advanced to the distributors in their marketing efforts and developing standard stores to expand the Company’s products’ competitiveness and market shares. The amount owed to the Company to assist its distributors will be expensed over three years as long as the distributors are actively selling the Company’s products. If a distributor breaches, defaults, or terminates the agreement with the Company within the three year period, the outstanding unamortized portion of the amount owed is payable to the Company immediately. The Company’s Chairman, Mr. Li, guaranteed to the Company of amounts remaining unpaid due from distributors.

Assets held for sale

Assets held for sale represent certain equipment from the Company’s Jintai facility that has been relocated. The Company’s board of directors has authorized a special team be formed to sell these assets. The Company currently has a letter of intent to sell these assets to an outside third party with an expected closing of the sales transaction in the spring of 2014. The carrying value of the assets held for sale at September 30, 2013 was $11,705,604 which is fair value less disposal costs.

Recent accounting pronouncements

FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-02

On July 27, 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. The ASU provides entities with an option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If an entity concludes that it is more than 50% likely that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is not impaired, no further analysis is required. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, it would be required to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to measure the amount of actual impairment, if any, as currently required under US GAAP. The ASU is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, which amends the authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 220 “Comprehensive Income.” The amendments do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. However, the amendments require an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under US GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under US GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under US GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. The amendments in this update are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of this update is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-04

The FASB has issued ASU No. 2013-04, Liabilities (Topic 405), “Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date.” ASU 2013-04 provides guidance for the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this ASU is fixed at the reporting date, except for obligations addressed within existing guidance in U.S. GAAP. The guidance requires an entity to measure those obligations as the sum of the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-01

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, A Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (A Consensus the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). ASU 2013-11 provides guidance on financial statement presentation of unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. The FASB’s objective in issuing this ASU is to eliminate diversity in practice resulting from a lack of guidance on this topic in current U.S. GAAP. This ASU applies to all entities with unrecognized tax benefits that also have tax loss or tax credit carryforward in the same tax jurisdiction as of the reporting date. This amendment is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013 and interim periods within those years. The company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

NOTE 11 – TAXES PAYABLE

Enterprise Income Tax

Effective January 1, 2008, the Enterprise Income Tax (“EIT”) law of the PRC replaced the tax laws for Domestic Enterprises (“DEs”) and Foreign Invested Enterprises (“FIEs”). The EIT rate of 25% replaced the 33% rate that was applicable to both DEs and FIEs. The two year tax exemption and three year 50% tax reduction tax holiday for production-oriented FIEs was eliminated. Since January 1, 2008, Jinong became subject to income tax in China at a rate of 15% as a high-tech company, as a result of the expiration of its tax exemption on December 31, 2007. Accordingly, it made provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30, 2013, and 2012 of $1,825,650 and $1,754,200, respectively, which is mainly due to the operating income from Jinong. Gufeng is subject to 25% EIT rate and thus it made provision for income taxes of $835,700 and $95,784 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

Value-Added Tax

All of the Company’s fertilizer products that are produced and sold in the PRC were subject to a Chinese Value-Added Tax (VAT) of 13% of the gross sales price. On April 29, 2008, the PRC State of Administration of Taxation (SAT) released Notice #56, “Exemption of VAT for Organic Fertilizer Products”, which allows certain fertilizer products to be exempt from VAT beginning June 1, 2008. The Company submitted the application for exemption in May 2009, which was granted effective September 1, 2009, continuing through December 31, 2015. The VAT exemption applies to all agricultural products sold by Jintai, and all but a nominal amount of agricultural products sold by Jinong.

Income Taxes and Related Payables

Taxes payable consist of the following:

	September 30,		June 30,
	2013		2013
VAT provision	$	42,803	$	36,573
Income tax payable		23,521,402		25,348,794
Other levies		359,313		343,392
Total	$	23,923,518	$	25,728,759

Tax Rate Reconciliation

Our effective tax rates were approximately 20.4% and 17.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Substantially all of the Company’s income before income taxes and related tax expense are from PRC sources.

16

CHINA GREEN AGRICULTURE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company's operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among other things, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company's results may be adversely affected by, among other things, changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation.

Vendor and Customer Concentration

There were two vendors from which the Company purchased 16.1% and 15.1% of its raw materials for the three months ended September 30, 2013. Total purchase from these two venders amounted to $6,399,605 as of September 30, 2013. The total amount payable to these two vendors as of September 30, 2013 was $3,269,988.

Litigation

On October 15, 2010, a class action lawsuit was filed against the Company and certain of its current and former officers in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada (the "Nevada Federal Court") on behalf of purchasers of the Company’s common stock between November 12, 2009 and September 1, 2010.  The current version of the complaint alleges that the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Sections 11, 12(a)(2), and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by making material misstatements and omissions in the Company’s financial statements, securities offering documents, and related disclosures during the class period.  On October 7, 2011, the defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint and to strike portions of it. On November 2, 2012, the Nevada Federal Court issued an order dismissing the claims for violation of sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 as to all defendants and dismissing certain individual defendants from the complaint and allowing the claims for violations of section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to continue with respect to the Company and certain of the individual defendants. The Nevada Federal Court also denied the defendants’ motion to strike. The parties to the securities class action held mediation on March 7, 2013, which led to an agreement in principle to settle the case for a payment of $2.5 million by the Company’s insurers in exchange for a release of all claims against all defendants. The parties are currently in the process of documenting the settlement

NOTE 15 – SEGMENT REPORTING

As of September 30, 2013, the Company was organized into three main business segments based on location and product: Jinong (fertilizer production), Gufeng (fertilizer production), and Yuxing (agricultural products production). Each of the three operating segments referenced above has separate and distinct general ledgers. The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) receives financial information, including revenue, gross margin, operating income and net income produced from the various general ledger systems to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance; however, the principal measure of segment profitability or loss used by the CODM is net income by segment. Jintai’s business is in the migrating process into Yuxing’s.

Overview

We are engaged in the research, development, production and sale of various types of fertilizers and agricultural products in the PRC through our wholly-owned Chinese subsidiaries, Jinong, Gufeng (including Gufeng’s subsidiary Tianjuyuan) and our VIE, Yuxing. Our primary business is fertilizer products, specifically humic-acid based compound fertilizer produced by Jinong and compound fertilizer, blended fertilizer, organic compound fertilizer, slow-release fertilizers, highly-concentrated water-soluble fertilizers and mixed organic-inorganic compound fertilizer produced by Gufeng. In addition, through Yuxing, we develop and produce agricultural products, such as top-grade fruits, vegetables, flowers and colored seedlings. For financial reporting purposes, our operations are organized into three business segments: fertilizer products (Jinong), fertilizer products (Gufeng) and agricultural products production (Yuxing).

The fertilizer business conducted by Jinong and Gufeng generated approximately 98.7% and 98.2% of our total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Yuxing serves as a research and development base for our fertilizer products. Jintai had served for that function too. However, as reported in our previous annual and quarterly reports, we started to relocate Jintai to the facilities of Yuxing due to the deteriorated surrounding environment that caused the death and obsolescence of large amount of Jintai’s flowers and seedlings. As a result, Jintai has not been in operation since March 1, 2012, when the relocation commenced, which is ongoing.

Jinong is subject to a preferred tax rate of 15% as a result of its business being classified as a High-Tech project under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law (“EIT”) that became effective on January 1, 2008. Jinong incurred income tax expenses of $1,825,650 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $1,754,200 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of $71,450, or 4.1%.

26

 

Gufeng, subject to a tax rate of 25%, incurred income tax expenses of $835,700 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $95,784 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of $739,916, or 772.5%, which was primarily due to Gufeng’s increased net income.

Yuxing has no income tax for the three months ended September 30, 2013 as a result of being exempted from paying income tax due to its products fall into the tax exemption list set out in the EIT.

Net Income

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $10,378,457, an increase of $1,517,057, or 17.1%, compared to $8,861,400 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase was attributable to the increase in net sales offset by an increase in cost of goods sold and selling expenses. Net income as a percentage of total net sales was approximately 20.6% and 22.4 % for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Discussion of Segment Profitability Measures

As of September 30, 2013, we were engaged in the following businesses: the production and sale of fertilizers through Jinong and Gufeng and the production and sale of high-quality agricultural products by Yuxing. For financial reporting purpose, our operations were organized into three main business segments based on locations and products: Jinong (fertilizer production), Gufeng (fertilizer production) and Yuxing (agricultural products production). While each of the segments has its own annual budget with regard to development, production and sales. Jintai is in its migrating process into Yuxing.

Each of the three operating segments referenced above has separate and distinct general ledgers. The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) makes decisions with respect to resources allocation and performance assessment upon receiving financial information, including revenue, gross margin, operating income and net income produced from the various general ledger systems; however, net income by segment is the principal benchmark to measure profit or loss adopted by the CODM.

For Jinong, the net income increased 1.5% by $151,221 to $10,088,808 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $9,937,687 for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

For Gufeng, the net income increased 1,101.5% by $2,287,425 to $2,495,095 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $207,670 for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

For Yuxing, the net income increased 88.4% by $48,717 to $103,810 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 from $55,093 for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity include cash from operations, borrowings from local commercial banks and net proceeds of offerings of our securities consummated in July 2009 and November/December 2009 (collectively the “Public Offerings”).

As of September 30, 2013, cash and cash equivalents were $44,890,502, a decrease of $29,307,322, or 39.5%, from $75,031,489 as of June 30, 2013.

The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was due to the incurrence of a deferred asset of $25,771,964 as of September 30, 2013, as advances by Jinong to the distributors in marketing the Company’s products with credit guarantee by Mr. Tao Li, Chairman and CEO of the Company.

27

We intend to use some of the remaining net proceeds from the Public Offerings, as well as other working capital if required, to acquire new businesses, upgrade production lines and complete Yuxing’s new greenhouse facilities for agriculture products located on 88 acres of land in Hu County, 18 kilometers southeast of Xi’an city. We believe that we have sufficient cash on hand and positive projected cash flow from operations to support our business growth for the next twelve months to the extent we do not have further significant acquisitions or expansions. However, if events or circumstances occur and we do not meet our operating plan as expected, we may be required to seek additional capital and/or to reduce certain discretionary spending, which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve our business objectives. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may seek additional financing as necessary for expansion purposes and when we believe market conditions are most advantageous, which may include additional debt and/or equity financings. There can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. Any equity financing may result in dilution to existing stockholders and any debt financing may include restrictive covenants.

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

	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2013		2012
Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities	$	(4,283,350)	$	6,386,548
Net cash used in investing activities		(26,418,134)		(4,592,810)
Net cash provided by financing activities		262,800		561,255
Effect of exchange rate change on cash and cash equivalents		297,697		(135,799)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents		(30,140,987)		2,219,194
Cash and cash equivalents, beginning balance		75,031,489		71,978,630
Cash and cash equivalents, ending balance	$	44,890,502	$	74,197,824

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $4,283,350 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, a decrease of $10,669,898, or 167.1% from cash provided by operating activities of $6,386,548 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease was mainly attributable to the increase in accounts receivable and inventory balances during the three months ended September 30, 2013 to the same period in 2012. Jinong assisted its distributors in marketing to expand its competitive product advantage and market share during the three months ended September 30, 2013.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $26,418,134, a increase of $21,825,324, or 475.2% from $4,592,810 for the three months ended September 30, 2012. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, Jinong assisted its distributors in marketing to expand its competitive product advantage and market share by advancing them $25,771,964.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided in financing activities in the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $262,800, a decrease of $298,455 or 53.2% from cash provided by financing activities of $561,255 for the three months ended September 30, 2012.

As of September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, our loans payable were as follows:

	September 30, 2013		June 30, 2013
Short term loans payable:	$	16,301,100	$	16,099,100
Total	$	16,301,100	$	16,099,100

Accounts Receivable

We had accounts receivable of $95,380,068 as of September 30, 2013, as compared to $85,323,442 as of June 30, 2013, an increase of $10,056,626 or 11.8%, which is mainly attributable to the implementation of 180 days credit policy to the distributors of Jinong’s and Gufeng’s. In order to respond to the cash flow shortage caused by the tightening financing and slowing economy growth encountered by some of our distributors, the company launched such a policy since the third quarter of fiscal year 2012 enabling such distributors take full advantage of the 180-day credit terms.

Allowance for doubtful accounts in account receivable for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $104,794, a decrease of $17,481, or 14.3% from $122,275 as of June 30, 2013. And the allowance for doubtful accounts as a percentage of accounts receivable was 0.1% as of September 30, 2013 and 0.1% as of June 30, 2013.

Deferred asset

We had a deferred asset of $25,676,982 as of September 30, 2013, as compared to $0 as of June 30, 2013. During the three months we assisted the distributors in certain marketing efforts and developing standard stores to expand our competitive advantage and market shares. Based on the distributor agreements, the amount owed by the distributors in certain marketing efforts and store development will be expensed over three years as long as the distributors are actively selling our products. If a distributor defaults, breaches, or terminates the agreement with us earlier than the contractual terms, the unamortized portion of the amount owed by the distributor is payable to us immediately. The Company’s Chairman and CEO, Mr. Li, provided credit backup guarantee toward potential losses to the Company of any amounts due from distributors in this matter.

Inventories

We had an inventory of $50,037,697 as of September 30, 2013, as compared to $34,511,167 as of June 30, 2013, an increase of $15,526,530, or 45.0%. This increase was mainly due to Gufeng’s inventory of $32,876,924 in acquiring raw materials for the expected production of fertilizers for the incoming winter while the current price of raw materials tends to be low as of September 30, 2013, as well as the accumulation of finished fertilizer products.

Advances to Suppliers

We had advances to suppliers of $19,104,023 as of September 30, 2013 as compared to $20,224,206 as of June 30, 2013, representing a decrease of $1,120,183 or 5.5%. To ensure our ability to deliver compound fertilizer to the distributor timely prior to the planting season, we need to have sufficient raw material in stock to feed the production. To build up the inventory, we typically make advance payment to the supplier to secure the supply of raw material of basic fertilizer. Our inventory level may fluctuate from time to time, depending how fast the raw material gets consumed and replenished during the production process, and how fast the finished goods get sold. The replenishment of raw material relies on the management’s estimate of numerous factors, including but not limited to, the raw material’s future price, and spot price along with their volatility, as well as the seasonal demand and future price of finished fertilizer products. Such estimate may not be accurate, and the purchase decision of raw materials based on the estimate can cause excessive inventories in slow sales and insufficient inventories in peak sales.

Accounts Payable

We had accounts payable of $3,888,978 as of September 30, 2013 as compared to $3,375,333 as of June 30, 2013, representing an increase of $513,645, or 15.2%. The increase was primarily due to the building up of inventory.

Unearned Revenue

We had unearned revenue of $4,107,865 as of September 30, 2013 as compared to $1,433,661 as of June 30, 2013, representing an increase of $2,674,204, or 186.5%. The increase is principally due to the expanded cash sales and less credits sales to selected distributors since Jinong and Gufeng launched warehouse sales program, which is a customized strategy that requires less or few advanced deposit payment from the participating distributors which were selected based upon their overall business strength, credit worthiness and proven ability to develop local markets.

29

Tax Payable

We had taxes payable of $23,923,518 as of September 30, 2013 as compared to $25,728,759 as of June 30, 2013, representing a decrease of $1,805,241, or 7.0%. This decrease was mainly due to estimated tax payments exceeding the tax liability incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2013.

Non-Cash Financing Activities

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, we issued 118,778 shares of common stock to Mr. Tao Li, Chairman and CEO as repayment for $200,000 previously advanced to us and $325,000 in unpaid compensation.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. Our financial statements reflect the selection and application of accounting policies which require management to make significant estimates and judgments. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, “Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” We believe that the following paragraphs reflect the more critical accounting policies that currently affect our financial condition and results of operations:

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. However, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Revenue recognition

Sales revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, we have no other significant obligations and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue.

Our revenue consists of invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added tax (VAT). No product return or sales discount allowance is made as products delivered and accepted by customers are normally not returnable and sales discounts are normally not granted after products are delivered.

Cash and cash equivalents

For statement of cash flows purposes, we consider all cash on hand and in banks, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents.

30

 

Accounts receivable

Our policy is to maintain reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Any accounts receivable of Jinong and Gufeng that is outstanding for more than 180 days will be accounted as allowance for bad debts, and any accounts receivable of Yuxing that is outstanding for more than 90 days will be accounted as allowance for bad debts.

Deferred asset

Deferred asset represents amounts the Company advanced to the distributors in their marketing and stores development to expand our competitive advantage and market shares. Based on the distributor agreements, the amount owed by the distributors in certain marketing efforts and store development will be expensed over three years as long as the distributors are actively selling our products. If a distributor defaults, breaches, or terminates the agreement with us within the contractual terms, the unamortized portion of the amount owed by the distributor is payable to us immediately. The Company’s Chairman and CEO, Mr. Li, provided credit backup guarantee toward potential losses to the Company of any amounts due from distributors in this matter.

Segment reporting

FASB ASC 280 requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company.

As of September 30, 2013, we were organized into three main business segments: Jinong (fertilizer production), Gufeng (fertilizer production) and Yuxing (agricultural products production).

31

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Disclosures About Market Risk

We may be exposed to changes in financial market conditions in the normal course of business. Market risk generally represents the risk that losses may occur as a result of movements in interest rates and equity prices. We currently do not use financial instruments in the normal course of business that are subject to changes in financial market conditions.

Currency Fluctuations and Foreign Currency Risk

Substantially all of our revenues and expenses are denominated in RMB. However, we use the U.S. dollar for financial reporting purposes. Conversion of RMB into foreign currencies is regulated by the People’s Bank of China through a unified floating exchange rate system. Although the PRC government has stated its intention to support the value of RMB, there can be no assurance that such exchange rate will not again become volatile or that RMB will not devalue significantly against the U.S. dollar. Exchange rate fluctuations may adversely affect the value, in U.S. dollar terms, of our net assets and income derived from our operations in the PRC.

Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Except for the U.S. holding companies, all of our consolidated revenues, consolidated costs and expenses, and our assets are denominated in RMB. 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 the 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 and shareholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any resulting translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are included in determining other comprehensive income, a component of shareholders’ equity. As of September 30, 2013, our accumulated other comprehensive income was $22.5 million. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange risk. The value of the Renminbi 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 Renminbi has not 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 Renminbi 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 Renminbi exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market.

Interest Rate Risk

We deposit surplus funds with Chinese banks earning daily interest. We do not invest in any instruments for trading purposes. All of our outstanding debt instruments carry fixed rates of interests. The amount of short-term debt outstanding as of September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013 was $16.3 million and $16.1 million, respectively. We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily with respect to our short-term bank loans. Although the interest rates, which are based on the banks’ prime rates with respect to 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 were no material changes in interest rates for short-term bank loansrenewed during the three months ended September 30, 2013. The original loan term on average is one year, and the remaining average life of the short term-loans is approximately eight months.

32

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.

Credit Risk

We have not experienced significant credit risk, as most of our customers are long-term customers with superior payment records. Our receivables are monitored regularly by our credit managers.

Inflation Risk

Inflationary factors such as increases in the cost of our product 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 revenues if the selling prices of our products do not increase with these increased costs.

Item 4.                Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

At the conclusion of the period ended September 30, 2013 we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and adequately designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms and that such information was accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a manner that allowed for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Changes in internal controls.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II           OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

On October 15, 2010, a class action lawsuit was filed against us and certain of our current and former officers in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada (the "Nevada Federal Court") on behalf of purchasers of our common stock between November 12, 2009 and September 1, 2010. The current version of the complaint alleges that we and certain of our current and former officers and directors violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Sections 11, 12(a)(2), and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, by making material misstatements and omissions in our financial statements, securities offering documents, and related disclosures during the class period. On October 7, 2011, the defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint and to strike portions of it. On November 2, 2012, the Nevada Federal Court issued an order dismissing the claims for violation of sections 11, 12(a)(2) and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 as to all defendants and dismissing certain individual defendants from the complaint and allowing the claims for violations of section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to continue with respect to the Company and certain of the individual defendants. The Nevada Federal Court also denied the defendants’ motion to strike. The parties to the securities class action held a mediation on March 7, 2013, which led to an agreement in principle to settle the case for a payment of $2.5 million by our insurers in exchange for a release of all claims against all defendants. The parties are currently in the process of documenting the settlement.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

On September 26, 2013, the Company issued 118,778 shares of common stock at the price of $4.42 per share, the closing price at NYSE that day, to Mr. Tao Li, the CEO in the second offering of the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) on August 9, 2012 which was later amended and restated by the Board on October 19, 2012. A copy of the Company’s 2013 Amended and Restated Employee Stock Purchase Plan is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2012, as filed with the SEC on November 19, 2012. The issuance was in reliance upon the exemption from registration afforded by Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
