Risk Factors

You should carefully consider the following risks, together with all other information included in this Annual Report. The realization of any of the risks described below could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and future prospects.

Risks Related to Our Business

Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and results of operations.

The Company is in the process of developing its business and has a limited operating history. You should consider our future prospects in light of the risks and uncertainties experienced by early stage companies. Some of these risks and uncertainties relate to our ability to:

If we are unsuccessful in addressing any of these risks and uncertainties, our business may be materially and adversely affected.

We envision a period of rapid growth that may impose a significant burden on our administrative and operational resources that, if not effectively managed, could impair our growth.

Our strategy envisions a period of rapid growth that may impose a significant burden on our administrative and operational resources. The growth of our business will require significant investments of capital and management’s close attention. Our ability to effectively manage our growth will require us to substantially expand the capabilities of our administrative and operational resources and to attract, train, manage and retain qualified management, research and development, sales and marketing and other personnel; we may be unable to do so. In addition, our failure to successfully manage our growth could result in our sales not increasing commensurately with capital investments. If we are unable to successfully manage our growth, we may be unable to achieve our goals.

We may not be able to raise the additional capital necessary to execute our business strategy, which could result in the curtailment of our operations.

We will need to raise additional funds to fully fund our existing operations and for development and expansion of our business. We have no current arrangements with respect to sources of additional financing and the needed additional financing may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, on a timely basis or at all. The inability to obtain additional financing when needed would have a negative effect on us, including possibly requiring us to curtail our operations. If any future financing involves the sale of equity securities, the Ordinary Shares held by our shareholders could be substantially diluted. If we borrow money or issue debt securities, the Company will be subject to the risks associated with indebtedness, including the risk that interest rates may fluctuate and the possibility that it may not be able to pay principal and interest on the indebtedness when due. Insufficient funds would prevent us from implementing our business plan and would require us to delay, scale back or eliminate certain of our operations.

We will be required to hire and retain skilled managerial, research and development and sales and marketing personnel.

Our continued success depends in large part on our ability to attract, train, motivate and retain qualified management, research and development and sales and marketing personnel. Any failure to attract and retain the required personnel that are integral to our business may have a negative impact on our operations, which would have a negative impact on revenues. There can be no assurance that we will be able to attract and retain skilled persons and the loss of skilled personnel would adversely affect us.

We are dependent upon our officers and management for direction and the loss of any of these persons could adversely affect our operations and results.

We are dependent upon our officers and those of our sole operating subsidiary, Bao Feng Bio-Technology (Beijing) Limited (“Bao Feng”), for implementation of our proposed strategy and execution of our business plan. The loss of any of our or Bao Feng’s officers could have a material adverse effect upon our results of operations and financial position. We do not maintain “key person” life insurance for any of our or Bao Feng’s officers. The loss of any of our or Bao Feng’s officers could delay or prevent the achievement of our business objectives.

We currently have only one operating subsidiary and one line of products.

We are a holding company with a total of four subsidiaries; however, at the current time only one of those subsidiaries, Bao Feng, is conducting operations. Although the Company plans to expand the marketing and sale of Bao Feng’s products into the international arena and to have a different subsidiary, Zhong Yuan Bio-Technology (Hong Kong) Limited, handle the international business, it is expected that China will remain our primary market. In addition, the products sold in the international market will be the same products developed by Bao Feng. Therefore, we will remain primarily dependent on Bao Feng for our revenue. If Bao Feng is not profitable, our business, results of operations and cash flows could be significantly and adversely affected.

We may be sued or become a party to litigation, which could require significant management time and attention and result in significant legal expenses and may result in an unfavorable outcome, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We may be subject to a number of lawsuits from time to time arising in the ordinary course of our business. The expense of defending ourselves against such litigation may be significant. The amount of time to resolve these lawsuits is unpredictable and defending ourselves may divert management’s attention from the day-to-day operations of our business, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, an unfavorable outcome in such litigation could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and cash flows.

Future sales of our securities, or the perception in the markets that these sales may occur, could depress our stock price.

We currently have issued and outstanding 17,145,000 Ordinary Shares (after a reverse stock split effected on July 24, 2020). Although only 2,236,192 of those Shares have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), the remaining 14,908,808 Shares also may be sold in the future if registered under the Securities Act or if the shareholder qualifies for an exemption from registration under Rule 144 or Rule 701 under the Securities Act, or other applicable exemption. The market price of our capital stock could drop significantly if the holders of these restricted Shares sell them or are perceived by the market as intending to sell them. These factors also could make it more difficult for us to raise capital or make acquisitions through the issuance of additional Ordinary Shares or other equity securities.

The ability of the Board of Directors of the Company to issue preferred shares and any anti-takeover provisions we adopt may depress the value of our Ordinary Shares.

Our Articles of Association authorize our Board of Directors to provide, out of unissued shares, for preferred shares in one or more classes or series within a class upon authority of the Board without further shareholder approval. While no preferred shares are currently issued or outstanding, we may issue preferred shares in the future. Any preferred shares issued in the future may rank senior to the Ordinary Shares with respect to the payment of dividends or amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, or both, and any such preferred shares may have class or series voting rights. The future issuance of preferred shares could materially and adversely affect the rights of the holders of our Ordinary Shares and dilute the ordinary shareholders’ holdings.

In addition, the Board of Directors may, in the future, adopt anti-takeover measures (albeit the Board of Directors may not introduce any anti-takeover measures in our Articles of Association within a Special Resolution of Shareholders). The authority of the Board of Directors to issue preferred shares and any future anti-takeover measures it may adopt may, in certain circumstances, delay, deter or prevent takeover attempts and other changes in control of the Company not approved by its Board of Directors. As a result, the Company’s shareholders may lose opportunities to dispose of their Shares at favorable prices generally available in takeover attempts or that may be available under a merger proposal and the market price of the Ordinary Shares and the voting and other rights of the Company’s shareholders may also be affected.

Our shareholders may face difficulties in protecting their interests, and their ability to protect their rights through the U.S. federal courts may be limited because we are incorporated under Cayman Islands law, we conduct substantially all of our operations in China and all of our directors and officers reside outside the United States.

We are incorporated in the Cayman Islands and conduct substantially all of our operations in China. Both of our directors and officers reside outside the United States and their assets are located outside of the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for a shareholder to effect service of process or to bring an action against us or against these individuals in the Cayman Islands or in Hong Kong or China in the event that a shareholder believes that his rights have been infringed under the securities laws or otherwise. Even if a shareholder is successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the Cayman Islands, Hong Kong and China may render the shareholder unable to enforce a judgment against our assets or the assets of our directors and officers. There is no statutory recognition in the Cayman Islands or Hong Kong of judgments obtained in the United States, although the courts of the Cayman Islands and Hong Kong will generally recognize and enforce a non-penal judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits.

Our corporate affairs are governed by our Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended and restated from time to time, and by the Companies Law (Revised) and common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take legal action against us and our directors, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as from English common law, which provides persuasive, but not binding, authority on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of our shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of our directors under Cayman Islands law are not as clearly established as they would be under statutes or judicial precedents in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a less developed body of securities laws than the United States and provides significantly less protection to investors. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholder derivative action in U.S. federal courts.

PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of PRC Civil Procedure Law based either 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 form of reciprocity with the United States or the Cayman Islands that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedure 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 the basic principles of PRC law or national sovereignty, security or public interest.

As a result, our shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests through actions against us, our management, our directors or our major shareholders than would shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a jurisdiction in the United States.

It may be difficult for overseas regulators to conduct investigation or collect evidence within China.

Shareholder claims or regulatory investigations that are common in the United States generally are difficult to pursue as a matter of law or practicality in China. For example, in China, there are significant legal and other obstacles to providing information needed for regulatory investigations or litigation initiated outside China. Although the authorities in China may establish a regulatory cooperation mechanism with the securities regulatory authorities of another country or region to implement cross-border supervision and administration, such cooperation with the securities regulatory authorities in the Unities States may not be efficient in the absence of a mutual and practical cooperation mechanism. Furthermore, according to Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law, or Article 177, which became effective in March 2020, no overseas securities regulator is allowed to directly conduct investigation or evidence collection activities within the territory of the PRC. While detailed interpretation of or implementation rules under Article 177 have yet to be promulgated, the inability for an overseas securities regulator to directly conduct investigation or evidence collection activities within China may further increase difficulties faced by our shareholders in protecting their interests.

There may be conflicts of interest between our management and our non-management shareholders.

Conflicts of interest create the risk that our officers and directors may have an incentive to act adversely to the interests of the Company. A conflict of interest may arise between our officers and directors’ personal pecuniary interests and their fiduciary duty to our shareholders.

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, shareholders could lose confidence in our financial and other public reporting, which would harm our business and the future trading price of our Shares.

Effective internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and, together with adequate disclosure controls and procedures, are designed to prevent fraud. Any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Ineffective internal control could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the future trading price of our Shares.

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting in the Company and in our subsidiaries. As defined in Regulation 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, a “material weakness” is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented, or detected on a timely basis. Specifically, we determined that we had the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting: (i) we have limited controls over information processing; (ii) we have inadequate segregation of duties; (iii) we do not have a formal audit committee with a financial expert; and (iv) we do not have sufficient formal written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or GAAP, and SEC guidelines. Although our financial statements and footnotes are reviewed by our management, we do not have a formal policy to review significant accounting transactions and the accounting treatment of such transactions.

Even if we develop effective internal controls over financial reporting, such controls may become inadequate due to changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with such policies or procedures may deteriorate, which could result in the discovery of additional material weaknesses and deficiencies. In any event, the process of determining whether our existing internal control over financial reporting is compliant with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (“Section 404”) and is sufficiently effective requires the investment of substantial time and resources by our senior management. As a result, this process may divert internal resources and take a significant amount of time and effort to complete. In addition, we cannot predict the outcome of this process and whether we will need to implement remedial actions in order to establish effective controls over financial reporting. The determination of whether or not our internal controls are sufficient, and any remedial actions required could result in us incurring additional costs that we did not anticipate, including the hiring of additional outside consultants. We may also fail to timely complete our evaluation, testing and any remediation required to comply with Section 404.

We are required, pursuant to Section 404, to furnish a report by management on, among other things, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. However, for as long as we are a “smaller reporting company,” our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404. While we could be a smaller reporting company for an indefinite amount of time, and thus relieved of the above-mentioned attestation requirement, an independent assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting could detect problems that our management’s assessment might not. Such undetected material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting could lead to financial statement restatements and require us to incur the expense of remediation.

To the extent that our independent registered public accounting firm’s audit documentation related to their audit reports for the Company are, or will be, located in China, the PCAOB may not be able to inspect such audit documentation and, as a result, you may be deprived of the benefits of such inspection.

Our independent registered public accounting firm issued audit opinions on the financial statements included in this Annual Report and will issue audit reports related to the Company in the future. As the auditor of a company filing reports with the SEC and as a firm registered with the PCAOB, our auditor is required by the laws of the United States to undergo regular inspections by the PCAOB. However, to the extent that our auditor’s work papers are or become located in China, such work papers will not be subject to inspection by the PCAOB because the PCAOB is currently unable to conduct inspections without the approval of the Chinese authorities. Inspections of certain other firms that the PCAOB has conducted outside of China have identified deficiencies in those firms’ audit procedures and quality control procedures, which may be addressed as part of the inspection process to improve future audit quality. The inability of the PCAOB to conduct inspections of our auditors’ work papers in China would make it more difficult to evaluate the effectiveness of our auditor’s audit procedures or quality control procedures as compared to auditors outside of China that are subject to PCAOB inspections. Investors may consequently lose confidence in our reported financial information and procedures and the quality of our financial statements. As a result, our investors may be deprived of the benefits of the PCAOB’s oversight of our auditors through such inspections.

In addition, trade tensions and policy changes between China and the United States have also led to measures that could have adverse effects on China-based issuers, including proposed legislation in the United States that would require listed companies whose audit reports and/or auditors are not subject to review by the PCAOB to be subject to enhanced disclosure obligations and be subject to delisting if they do not comply with the requirements. If our auditor is sanctioned or otherwise penalized by the PCAOB or the SEC as a result of failure to comply with inspection or investigation requirements, our financial statements could be determined to be not in compliance with the requirements of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or other laws or rules in the United States, which could ultimately result in our Shares being delisted from whatever exchange they may become listed on.

We have never paid dividends on our Shares.

We have never paid dividends on our Shares and do not presently intend to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. We anticipate that any funds available for payment of dividends will be re-invested into the Company to further its business strategy.

Risks Related to the Business of Bao Feng

Our business depends on the market recognition of our brand. If we are not able to maintain our reputation and enhance our brand recognition, our business and operating results may be materially and adversely affected.

The quality and acceptance of our products will determine whether our brand becomes recognized as a leading brand in the industry. We believe that market recognition of our brand is a key factor to ensuring our future success. As we continue to grow in size and broaden the scope of our product offerings, however, it may become increasingly difficult to maintain the quality and consistency of the products we offer, which may negatively impact our brand and the popularity of our products offered thereunder.

Our brand value will also be affected by customer perceptions. Those perceptions are affected by a number of factors, some of which are based on first-hand observation of our product quality and effectiveness while others may be based on indirect information from media or other sources. Incidents and any negative publicity related thereto, even if factually incorrect, may lead to significant deterioration of our brand image and reputation, and consequently negatively affect customers’ interest in our products, as well as top-notch sales and marketing personnel’s interest in being associated with our brand. Particularly in the age of digital media and social network, impacts of negative publicity associated with any single incident could be easily amplified and potentially cause impacts that go beyond our estimation or control.

In addition, scientific studies on health products are constantly evolving and new or innovative conclusions on effectiveness may affect customers’ perception of our products. If we are unable to maintain our reputation, enhance our brand recognition or increase positive awareness of our products, it may be difficult to maintain and grow our customer base and distribution channels, and our business and growth prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

We may face increasing competition in our industry and may not be able to successfully compete with our competitors.

Our business is in an industry that we expect to become increasingly competitive, and many of our competitors, both local and international, may have substantially greater technical, financial and marketing resources than we have. As a result, we may be unable to compete successfully with these competitors. As competition increases, we may also face pressures on pricing which could result in lower margins. Lower margins may affect our ability to cover our costs, which could have a material negative impact on our operations and our business.

We may not be successful in introducing new products or enhancing our existing products.

We currently offer four health supplement products, plus our acer truncatum seedlings. We intend to continue developing new products, as well as further enhancing our existing products. This process is subject to risks and uncertainties, such as unexpected technical, regulatory, operational, logistical or other problems that could delay the process temporarily or permanently. Moreover, we cannot assure you that any of these new products or enhancements of existing products will fulfill customer needs, match the quality or popularity of those developed by our competitors, achieve widespread market acceptance or generate incremental revenues.

In addition, introducing new products or enhancing existing products requires us to make various investments in research and development, incur personnel expenses and potentially reallocate other resources. If we are unable to develop new products or cannot do so in a cost-effective manner or are otherwise unable to manage effectively the quality of those products, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Our business is affected by global, national and local economic conditions, as the products we sell are discretionary.

We depend upon factors relating to discretionary consumer spending in China. These factors include economic conditions, consumers, employment rates, the amounts of consumers' disposable income, business conditions, interest rates, consumer debt, availability of credit and applicable taxation in regional and local markets where we sell our products. There can be no assurance that consumer spending for our products will not be adversely affected by changes in economic conditions.

Our ability to establish effective marketing and advertising campaigns is the key to our success.

Our advertisements promote our products and the pricing of such products. If we are unable to increase awareness of our brands and our products, we may not be able to attract new customers. Our marketing activities may not be successful in promoting or pricing our products or retaining and enlarging our customer base. We cannot assure you that our marketing programs will be adequate to support our future growth, which may lead to material adverse effects on our results of operations.

Consumer preferences in the health care industry change rapidly and are difficult to predict.

The success of our business depends on our ability to anticipate accurately and respond to future changes in consumer demand, maintain the correct inventory, deliver the appropriate products at the right prices and produce our products at minimum costs. We must optimize our product selection and inventory based on consumer preferences and sales trends. If we fail to anticipate, identify or react appropriately to changes in consumer demand, we could experience excess inventories, higher than normal markdowns or be unable to sell the products, which will reduce our revenue, financial position and results of operations.

While we must maintain sufficient inventory to operate our business successfully and meet our customers' demands, we must be careful to not overstock.

Changing consumer demands and uncertainty surrounding new product launches expose us to increasing inventory risks. Demand for products can change rapidly and unexpectedly, including the back order time and availability for sale. We carry five different products for which we must maintain sufficient inventory amounts. In the event that consumer demand for certain of our products decreases, we may be unable to sell our inventory of those products. Our inventory holding costs will increase if we maintain excess inventory. However, if we do not have sufficient inventory to fulfill customer orders, we may lose orders or customers, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We cannot assure you that we can accurately predict consumer demand and events and avoid over-stocking or under-stocking products.

We primarily depend on a few products for our revenue.

We currently rely on five products, including our acer truncatum seedlings, for our revenue. We do not currently have any other products that we could rely on to support our operations if we were to experience any difficulty with the manufacture, marketing, sale or distribution of these product lines. If we are unable to sustain or increase the price or sales levels for these product lines, our business could be harmed.

If we are to expand our product offerings, or if we experience increased capital requirements for any reason, we may need to raise additional capital.

We primarily depend on our Neuro Enhancer product line for 70% of our revenue. We may decide to expand our product portfolio, which would entail increased research and development expenses. If cash generated from operations is insufficient to satisfy our requirements in this regard, we may need to raise additional capital. If we are unable to raise additional required capital in a timely manner, or on acceptable terms, we could be forced to reduce our growth plans. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to us or that it will be available on acceptable terms.

We depend upon our largest customers for a significant portion of our sales revenue, and we cannot be certain that sales to these customers will continue. If sales to these customers do not continue, then our sales revenue will decline and our business will be negatively impacted.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, three customers accounted for approximately 55% of Bao Feng’s sales. We do not enter into long-term contracts with our customers but manufacture based upon purchase orders and therefore cannot be certain that sales to these customers will continue. Unless we were able to replace them with other customers, the loss of any of our largest customers would have a material negative impact on our sales revenue and our business. There can be no assurance that we would be able to compensate for the loss of any of these major customers.

Product liability claims could adversely affect our business.

As a manufacturer of products that are ingested, we could face product liability claims if, among other things, our products are alleged to result in injury to a consumer. If we are found liable for product liability claims, we could be required to pay substantial monetary damages. Furthermore, even if we successfully defend ourselves against this type of claim, we could be required to spend significant management, financial and other resources, which could disrupt our business.

In addition, any product liability claim or adverse side effects, even if caused by improper use of our product, may result in adverse publicity regarding us and our products, which would harm our reputation.

If we fail to protect our trademarks and trade names, then our ability to compete could be negatively affected, which would harm our financial condition and operating results.

The market for our products depends to a significant extent upon the goodwill associated with our trademarks and trade names. We own the material trademark and trade name rights used in connection with the packaging, marketing and distribution of all but one of our products in the markets where those products are sold. Therefore, trademark and trade name protection is important to our business. Our trademarks are registered in China, and Chinese law may not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. The loss or infringement of our trademarks or trade names could impair the goodwill associated with our brands and harm our reputation, which would harm our financial condition and operating results.

There is limited protection of intellectual property available in China. Accordingly, we face the risk in China that unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise obtain or use our trademarks, copyrights, product formulations or other intellectual property. Further, because Chinese commercial law is relatively undeveloped, we may have limited legal recourse in the event we encounter significant difficulties with intellectual property theft or infringement. As a result, we cannot assure you that we will be able to adequately protect our product formulations or other intellectual property.

Our manufacturing activity is subject to certain risks.

We manufacture all of our products, other than our acer truncatum seedlings, through contractual arrangements with various manufacturers. As a result, we are dependent upon the uninterrupted and efficient operation of their manufacturing facilities, over which we have no control. In addition, our acer truncatum trees are grown on several tree farms in Inner Mongolia and Liaoning Province, in China. The facilities manufacturing our products and the tree farms at which our acer truncatum trees are grown are subject to the risk of catastrophic loss due to, among other things, earthquake, fire, flood or other natural or man-made disasters, and the manufacturing facilities are also subject to the risk of significant equipment failures. If any of these facilities were to experience a catastrophic loss, it would be expected to disrupt their operations and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Cyber security risks and the failure to maintain the integrity of data belonging to our company, employees and customers could expose us to data loss, litigation and liability, and our reputation could be significantly harmed.

We collect and retain large volumes of data relating to our business and from our employees and customers for business purposes, including for transactional and promotional purposes, and our various information technology systems enter, process, summarize and report such data. The integrity and protection of this data is critical to our business. We are subject to significant security and privacy regulations, as well as requirements imposed by the credit card industry. Maintaining compliance with these evolving regulations and requirements could be difficult and may increase our expenses. In addition, a penetrated or compromised data system or the intentional, inadvertent or negligent release or disclosure of data could result in theft, loss or fraudulent or unlawful use of data relating to our company or our employees, independent distributors or customers, which could harm our reputation, disrupt our operations or result in remedial and other costs, fines or lawsuits.

Difficulties in registering our products for sale in Mainland China could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Although Bao Feng has obtained all required approval documents for its current products, which are considered dietary supplements, if it expands into the medical market, it will need to apply for medical qualifications. This process may involve an extended period of time and significant man-hours and may delay us from offering new medical products for sale or prevent us from launching new product initiatives.

For example, products marketed in China as “health foods” or for which certain claims are used are subject to “blue cap” or “blue hat” registrations, which involve extensive laboratory and clinical analysis by governmental authorities. This registration process can take anywhere from 18 months to 3 years, but may be substantially longer. We currently market dietary supplements. However, if government officials should determine that our products should be categorized as health foods, this could end or limit our ability to market such products in China and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Our business operations may be adversely affected by the outbreak of coronavirus COVID-19 or future epidemics or pandemics.

An outbreak of respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) first emerged in Wuhan city, Hubei province, China in late 2019 and continued to expand within the PRC and globally. The new strain of coronavirus is considered highly contagious and poses a serious public health threat. With the aim of containing the COVID-19 outbreak, the PRC government imposed extreme measures across the PRC including, but not limited to, the complete lockdown of Wuhan city on January 23, 2020, partial lockdown measures across various cities in the PRC, the extended shutdown of business operations and mandatory quarantine requirements on infected individuals and anyone deemed potentially infected. On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a Public Health Emergency of International Concern and on March 11, 2020, WHO declared COVID-19 a global pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly disrupted China’s economy in the first quarter of 2020. Despite the PRC government’s efforts to revive China’s economy, China’s economy experienced a significant slowdown since the outbreak and will continue to face new difficulties and challenges due to the spread of the pandemic, increasing risk of imported cases and heightened volatility and uncertainties in the global economy, and there remains uncertainty as to how soon or whether economic activities in China will rebound to the level prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Our business has been and may continue to be adversely impacted. Our sole operating subsidiary is located in China, as are all of its employees, suppliers, product manufacturers, distributors and customers. Although Bao Feng’s online sales were not significantly affected by the epidemic, its total sales decreased by approximately 60.7% from RMB3,863,441 (approximately US$544,147) during the three months ended March 31, 2019 to RMB1,520,125 (approximately US$214,102) for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Its production capacity was significantly reduced due to the government lockdown and orders were filled through existing inventory. In addition, Bao Feng’s planned business expansion has been delayed due to travel restrictions and other factors, the planting of acer truncatum seedlings has had to be postponed for a year and the company has been unable to work towards expanding its distribution network.

The potential downturn brought by and the duration of the COVID-19 outbreak is difficult to assess or predict and the full impact of the virus on our operations will depend on many factors beyond our control. A major resurgence of the epidemic in China could be expected to negatively impact our business in much the same way as the first occurrence of the epidemic. In addition, our business operations could be disrupted again if our product manufacturers are instructed to close their manufacturing facilities or if any of our employees, or those of our product manufacturers, is suspected of contracting COVID-19, since our or their employees could be quarantined and/or our or their facilities be shut down for disinfection. The extent to which the COVID-19 outbreak impacts our business, results of operations and financial condition remains uncertain. Our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects could be materially adversely affected to the extent that COVID-19 persists in China or harms the Chinese and global economy in general.

We may also experience negative effects from future public health crises beyond our control. These events are impossible to forecast, their negative effects may be difficult to mitigate and they could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to the People’s Republic of China

Recent trade policy initiatives announced by the United States administration against the PRC may adversely affect our business.

On August 14, 2017, the President of the United States issued a memorandum instructing the U.S. Trade Representative (“USTR”) to determine whether to investigate, under Section 301 of the U.S. Trade Act of 1974 (Trade Act), laws, policies, practices, or actions of the PRC government that may be unreasonable or discriminatory and that may be harming U.S. intellectual property rights, innovation, or technology development. Based on information gathered in that investigation, the USTR published a report on March 22, 2018 on the acts, policies and practices of the PRC government supporting findings that certain such acts, policies and practices are unreasonable or discriminatory and burden or restrict U.S. commerce.

On March 8, 2018, the President exercised his authority to issue the imposition of significant tariffs on imports of steel and aluminum from a number of countries, including the PRC. Subsequently, the USTR announced an initial proposed list of 1,300 goods imported from the PRC that could be subject to additional tariffs and initiated a dispute with the World Trade Organization against the PRC for alleged unfair trade practices. The President indicated that his two primary concerns to be addressed by the PRC were (i) a mandatory $100 billion reduction in the PRC/U.S. trade deficit and (ii) limiting the planned $300 billion PRC government support for advanced technology industries including artificial intelligence, semiconductors, electric cars and commercial aircraft. On June 15, 2018, the President announced that the U.S. would proceed with tariffs on $34 billion worth of Chinese goods, including agriculture and industrial machinery, which prompted the PRC government to impose tariffs on $34 billion worth of goods from the U.S., including beef, poultry, tobacco and cars. In response to the PRC’s proposed retaliatory measures, the President announced on June 19, 2018 that the U.S. would compile a list of $200 billion in Chinese goods for levies should the PRC move forward with their proposed tariffs. On August 7, 2018, the U.S. announced a tariff of 25% on approximately $16 billion worth of predominantly industrial goods from China, including tractors, plastic tubes and antennas, which went into effect on August 23, 2018. In response, on August 8, 2018, China announced a 25% tariff on $16 billion worth of U.S. goods, including large passenger cars, motorcycles, chemical items and diesel fuel, which also went into effect on August 23, 2018. On September 7, 2018, the President warned that he was prepared to impose tariffs on another $267 billion worth of Chinese goods, which, in addition to the other previously announced tariffs, would cover virtually all of China’s imports into the U.S. but, instead, on September 17, 2018 the U.S. imposed a 10% tariff on $200 billion worth of Chinese goods. On September 18, 2018, China retaliated with 5% tariffs on $60 billion of US goods. On May 10, 2019 the U.S. announced an increase from 10% to 25% in the tariff imposed on September 17, 2018 and on May 13, 2018 China announced increases from 5% to either 10%, 20% or 25% in the tariffs on many of the goods covered by the tariffs announced by on September 18, 2018. As of the date of this filing, the U.S. has applied 25% tariffs on US$250 billion worth of Chinese products. In response, China has imposed tariffs on $110 billion worth of U.S. goods.

In addition to the retaliatory tariffs, the President also directed the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury to develop new restrictions on PRC investments in the U.S. aimed at preventing PRC-controlled companies and funds from acquiring U.S. firms with sensitive technologies. The Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act, which modernizes the restrictive powers imposed by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, was signed by President Trump on August 13, 2018.

Since late 2019, as a result of ongoing negotiations with the United States, China unveiled several tariff exemptions for U.S. products, including various agricultural products. Under the phase one trade deal agreed with the United States by the end of 2019, China released additional exemptions from tariffs and agreed to purchase at least an additional US$200 billion worth of U.S. goods and services by the end of 2021. It is uncertain whether there will be any further material changes to China’s tariff policies. Any further actions to increase existing tariffs or impose additional tariffs could result in an escalation of the trade conflict, which would have an adverse effect on manufacturing levels, trade levels and industries, including logistics, retail sales and other businesses and services that rely on trade, commerce and manufacturing, as well as on our marketplaces that rely upon imports.

The institution of trade tariffs both globally and between the U.S. and China specifically carries the risk of negatively affecting China’s overall economic condition, which could have a negative impact on us. Furthermore, imposition of tariffs could have a negative impact on our supply chain and on foreign demand for our products and, thus, could have a material adverse impact on our business and results of operations. During the year ended March 31, 2020, approximately 56.9% of our sales were to customers in the United States.

Trade tensions and policy changes have also led to measures that could have adverse effects on China-based issuers, including proposed legislation in the United States that would require listed companies whose audit reports and/or auditors are not subject to review by the PCAOB to be subject to enhanced disclosure obligations and be subject to delisting if they do not comply with the requirements.

The Market Price For Our Shares Could Be Adversely Affected By Increased Tensions Between The United States and China.

Recently there have been heightened tensions in the economic and political relations between the United States and China. On June 30, 2020, the Standing Committee of the PRC National People's Congress issued the Law of the People's Republic of China on Safeguarding National Security in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR). This law defines the duties and government bodies of the HKSAR for safeguarding national security and four categories of offences—secession, subversion, terrorist activities and collusion with a foreign country or external elements to endanger national security—and their corresponding penalties. On July 14, 2020, U.S. President Donald Trump signed the Hong Kong Autonomy Act, or HKAA, into law, authorizing the U.S. administration to impose blocking sanctions against individuals and entities who are determined to have materially contributed to the erosion of Hong Kong's autonomy. On August 7, 2020 the U.S. government imposed HKAA-authorized sanctions on eleven individuals, including HKSAR chief executive Carrie Lam. The HKAA further authorizes secondary sanctions, including the imposition of blocking sanctions, against foreign financial institutions that knowingly conduct a significant transaction with foreign persons sanctioned under this authority. The imposition of sanctions such as those provided in the HKAA is in practice discretionary and highly political, especially in a relationship as extensive and complex as that between the United States and China. It is difficult to predict the full impact of the HKAA on Hong Kong and companies like the Company. Furthermore, legislative or administrative actions in respect of Sino-U.S. relations could cause investor uncertainty for affected issuers, including us, and the market price of our Shares could be adversely affected.

The Chinese government may exert substantial influence over the manner in which we conduct our business operations in China.

The Chinese 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 conduct our operations in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to regulation of the health product industry, taxation, import and export tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, property ownership 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 could have a significant effect on us and our business.

China’s economic policies could affect our business.

Substantially all of our assets are located in China and substantially all of our revenue is currently derived from our operations in China. Accordingly, our results of operations and prospects are subject, to a significant extent, to economic, political and legal developments in China.

While China’s economy has experienced significant growth over the past decades, growth has been irregular, both geographically and among various sectors of the economy, and the rate of growth has been slowing since 2012. Any adverse changes in economic conditions in China, in the policies of the Chinese government or in the laws and regulations in China could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of China. Such developments could adversely affect our business and operating results, lead to reduction in demand for our products and adversely affect our competitive position. The Chinese government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures benefit the overall economy of China but may also have a negative effect on us. For example, our operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected by government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations.

The economy of China has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy. In recent years the Chinese government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform and the reduction of state ownership of productive assets and the establishment of improved corporate governance in business enterprises; however, a substantial portion of productive assets in China are still owned by the Chinese government. In addition, the Chinese government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry development by imposing industrial policies. It also exercises significant control over China's economic growth through the allocation of resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies.

Fluctuation of the RMB may affect our financial condition by affecting the volume of cross-border money flow.

The value of the RMB fluctuates and is subject to changes in the PRC’s political and economic conditions. Since July 2005, the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies, including USD, has been based on rates set by the People’s Bank of China which are set based upon the interbank foreign exchange market rates and current exchange rates of a basket of currencies on the world financial markets.

We may face obstacles from the communist system in the PRC.

Foreign companies conducting operations in the PRC face significant political, economic and legal risks. The communist regime in the PRC may hinder Western investment in the Company.

We may have difficulty establishing adequate management, legal and financial controls in the PRC.

The PRC historically has been deficient in Western style management and financial reporting concepts and practices, as well as in modern banking, computer and other control systems. We may have difficulty in hiring and retaining a sufficient number of qualified employees to work in the PRC. As a result of these factors, we may experience difficulty in establishing management, legal and financial controls, collecting financial data and preparing financial statements, books of account and corporate records and instituting business practices that meet Western standards.

The PRC legal system embodies uncertainties, which could limit law enforcement availability.

The PRC legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike common law systems, decided legal cases have little precedence. In 1979, the PRC government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters in general. The overall effect of legislation over the past several decades has significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investment in China. Our PRC operating subsidiary and affiliate is subject to PRC laws and regulations. However, these laws and regulations change frequently, and the interpretation and enforcement involve uncertainties. For instance, we may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce the legal protection that we are entitled to by law or contract. However, since PRC administrative and court authorities have significant discretion in interpreting statutory and contractual terms, it may be difficult to evaluate the outcome of administrative court proceedings and the level of law enforcement that we would receive in more developed legal systems. Such uncertainties, including the inability to enforce our contracts, could affect our business and operation. In addition, confidentiality protections in China may not be as effective as in the United States or other countries. Accordingly, we cannot predict the effect of future developments in the PRC legal system, particularly with regard to our business, including the promulgation of new laws. This may include changes to existing laws or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, or the preemption of local regulations by national laws. These uncertainties could limit the availability of law enforcement, including our ability to enforce our agreements.

Failure to make adequate contributions to various employee benefit plans as required by PRC regulations may subject us to penalties.

Companies operating in China are required to participate in various government sponsored employee benefit plans, including certain social insurance, housing funds and other welfare-oriented payment obligations, and contribute to the plans in amounts equal to certain percentages of salaries, including bonuses and allowances, of employees up to a maximum amount specified by the local government from time to time at locations where they operate their businesses. The requirement of employee benefit plans has not been implemented consistently by the local governments in China given the different levels of economic development in different locations. Our failure in making contributions to various employee benefit plans and in complying with applicable PRC labor-related laws may subject us to late payment penalties. We may be required to make up the contributions for these plans as well as to pay late fees and fines. If we are subject to late fees or fines in relation to the underpaid employee benefits, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

We may rely on dividends and other distributions on equity paid by our PRC subsidiaries to fund any cash and financing requirements we may have, and any limitation on the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to make payments to us could have a material and adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business.

We are a Cayman Islands holding company and we rely principally on dividends and other distributions on equity from our PRC subsidiaries for our cash requirements, including for servicing any debt we may incur. Our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to distribute dividends is based upon their distributable earnings. Current PRC regulations permit our PRC subsidiaries to pay dividends to their respective shareholders only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, our PRC subsidiaries are required to set aside at least 10% of their after-tax profits each year, if any, to fund a statutory reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of their registered capital. Our PRC subsidiaries, as foreign invested enterprises, or FIEs, are also required to further set aside a portion of their after-tax profit to fund an employee welfare fund, although the amount to be set aside, if any, is determined at their discretion. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. If our PRC subsidiaries incur debt on their own behalf in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict their ability to pay dividends or make other payments to us. Any limitation on the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to distribute dividends or other payments to their shareholders could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends or otherwise fund and conduct our business.

Changes to PRC tax laws may subject us to greater taxes.  

We base our tax position upon the anticipated nature and conduct of our business and upon our understanding of the tax laws of the various administrative regions and countries in which we have assets or conduct activities. However, our tax position is subject to review and possible challenge by taxing authorities and to possible changes in law, which may have retroactive effect. We cannot determine in advance the extent to which some jurisdictions may require us to pay taxes or make payments in lieu of taxes.

Risks Related to the Company’s Ordinary Shares

There is currently no trading market for our Ordinary Shares.

There currently is no trading market for our Ordinary Shares. Our unregistered outstanding Shares cannot be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred unless subsequently registered pursuant to, or exempt from registration under, the Securities Act and any other applicable federal or state securities laws or regulations in the United States. These restrictions will limit the ability of certain of our shareholders to liquidate their investment.

We are seeking to identify a market maker to apply for our Shares to be admitted to quotation on the OTCQB. We cannot assure you that we will be able to identify a market maker that will file such application or that, if the Shares are admitted to quotation, a public market will ever develop. There is no guarantee that our Shares will ever be quoted on the OTCQB or any exchange. Furthermore, you will likely not be able to sell your Shares if a regular trading market for our securities does not develop and we cannot predict the extent, if any, to which investor interest will lead to the development of a viable trading market in our Shares. We expect the initial market for our Shares to be limited, if a market develops at all. Even if a limited trading market does develop, there is a risk that the absence of potential buyers will prevent any potential sellers from selling their Shares.

Recent regulatory and enforcement actions by FINRA will make it difficult for investors to dispose of their Ordinary Shares as long as they remain an OTC security.

In order to be able to publicly trade a security, such security is required to have a trading symbol. Trading symbols for OTC securities are assigned by FINRA following a submission by a market maker of a Form 211. We are seeking to identify a market maker to submit that form. In the past, the review of such submissions by FINRA was a routine matter that would typically be completed within weeks. Recently, FINRA reviews have often taken well in excess of six months, with many securities being subject to indefinite delays. As a result of the enhanced regulatory scrutiny and long review process, many market makers are now declining to submit Forms 211.

In addition, and in response to increased scrutiny and recent regulatory actions by FINRA, many brokers have started to refuse deposits of OTC securities, whether restricted or free trading and regardless of the price at which these securities are traded, even after they obtained a trading symbol. As a result, investors may find it increasingly difficult to dispose of their Ordinary Shares.

We may not be able to achieve secondary trading of our Shares in certain states because our Ordinary Shares are not nationally traded, which could subject our shareholders to significant restrictions and costs.

Our Ordinary Shares are not eligible for trading on The NASDAQ Capital Market or on a national securities exchange. Therefore, our Ordinary Shares are subject to the securities laws of the various states and jurisdictions of the United States in addition to federal securities law. While we may register our Ordinary Shares or qualify for exemptions for our Ordinary Shares in one or more states, if we fail to do so the investors in those states where we have not taken such steps may not be allowed to purchase our Shares or those who presently hold our Shares may not be able to resell their Shares without substantial effort and expense. These restrictions and potential costs could be significant burdens on our shareholders.

It is likely that there will be significant volatility in the trading price of our Ordinary Shares.

In the event that a public market for our Ordinary Shares is created or maintained in the future, market prices for the Shares will be influenced by many factors and will be subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in operating results of Bao Feng and other factors. Our stock price will also be affected by the trading price of the stock of our competitors, investor perceptions of Bao Feng, interest rates, general economic conditions and those specific to our industry, developments with regard to Bao Feng’s operations and activities, our future financial condition and changes in our management.

Risks relating to low priced stocks.

The Company’s Ordinary Shares are not quoted and traded in any market or on any exchange, and the price at which the Shares will trade in the future cannot currently be estimated. There can be no assurance that trading will be commenced or sustained, although management intends to take such actions as are necessary to initiate quotation of our Ordinary Shares on the OTCQB. The trading price of the Shares will most likely be below $5.00. If our Shares trade below $5.00 per Share, trading in the Shares may be subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Exchange Act, which require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a penny stock (generally, any non-NASDAQ equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions) and a two business day “cooling off period” before broker-dealers can effect transactions in penny stocks. For these types of transactions, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to the broker-dealer, current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. These, and the other burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by the penny stock requirements, could discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our Shares, which could severely limit the market liquidity of our Shares and the ability of holders of our Shares to sell them.

We are controlled by Zhong Yuan Investment Limited, whose interest may differ from those of the other shareholders.

As of the date of this filing, Zhong Yuan Investment Limited (‘Zhong Yuan Investment”) is the record and beneficial owner of approximately 88.4% of our Ordinary Shares. Zhong Yuan Investment is owned of record by five parties, including Ting Ting Chang, our Chief Executive Officer and director, Fung Ming Pang, our Chief Financial Officer and director, and Xianyang Chen, Bao Feng’s Chief Technical Officer, and its Board of Directors consists of Ms. Chang and Ms. Pang. As the only two directors of Zhong Yuan Investment, Ms. Chang and Ms. Pang hold shared voting power over the Shares held by it, Zhong Yuan Investment is in a position to elect the Board of Directors and to control the business and affairs of the Company including significant corporate actions such as mergers and acquisitions, the sale or purchase of assets and the issuance and sale of our securities. The Company also may be prevented from entering into transactions that could be beneficial to the Company's other shareholders. The interest of our largest shareholder may differ from the interests of our other shareholders.

Our principal shareholder may engage in a transaction to cause the Company to repurchase its Ordinary Shares.

In order to provide an interest in the Company to a third party, our principal shareholder may choose to cause the Company to sell its securities to third parties, with the proceeds of such sale being utilized by the Company to repurchase its Ordinary Shares. As a result of such transaction, our management, principal shareholders and Board of Directors may change.

This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements and information relating to us, our industry and other businesses.

The forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report are based on the beliefs of our management, as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to our management. When used in this Annual Report, the words "estimate," "project," "believe," "anticipate," "intend," "expect" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in our forward-looking statements. We caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Annual Report. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Annual Report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

We are an emerging growth company within the meaning of the Securities Act and will take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements.

We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act and take advantage of certain exemptions from various requirements applicable to other reporting companies that are not emerging growth companies including, most significantly, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for so long as we are an emerging growth company. As a result, if we elect not to comply with such auditor attestation requirements, our investors may not have access to certain information they may deem important.

The JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company does not need to comply with any new or revised financial accounting standards until such date that a private company is otherwise required to comply with such new or revised financial accounting standards. The Company has elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards under Section 102(b)(2) of the JOBS Act that allows the Company to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies.

Certain Legal Consequences of Foreign Incorporation and Operations

Judgments against the Company and management may be difficult to obtain or enforce.

We are organized as an exempted company under the laws of the Cayman Islands, our principal executive offices are located in Hong Kong and we conduct substantially all of our operations in China. Both of our directors and officers reside outside the United States and their assets are located outside of the United States. Outside the United States, it may be difficult for investors to enforce judgments obtained against us in actions brought in the United States, including actions predicated upon the civil liability provisions of United States federal securities laws. In addition, since both of our officers and directors reside outside the United States, and their assets are located outside the United States, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon them or to enforce against the Company or them judgments predicated upon the liability provisions of United States federal securities laws. There is substantial doubt as to the enforceability against us or our officers and directors in original actions or in actions for enforcement of judgments of United States courts in claims for liability based on the civil liability provisions of United States federal securities laws.

No treaty exists between Hong Kong or the Cayman Islands and the United States providing for the reciprocal enforcement of foreign judgments. However, the courts of Hong Kong and the Cayman Islands are generally prepared to accept a foreign judgment as evidence of a debt due. An action may then be commenced in Hong Kong or the Cayman Islands for recovery of this debt. A Hong Kong or Cayman Islands court will only accept a foreign judgment as evidence of a debt due if:

Enforcement of a foreign judgment in Hong Kong or the Cayman Islands may also be limited or affected by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, arrangement and moratorium, or similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and will be subject to a statutory limitation of time within which proceedings may be brought.

The recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments are provided for under PRC Civil Procedure Law. PRC courts may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of PRC Civil Procedure Law based either 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 form of reciprocity with the United States or the Cayman Islands that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedure 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 the basic principles of PRC law or national sovereignty, security or public interest. As a result, it is uncertain whether and on what basis a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States or in the Cayman Islands.

Because we are incorporated in the Cayman Islands, you may not have the same protections as shareholders of U.S. corporations.

We are organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands. Principles of law relating to matters affecting the validity of corporate procedures, the fiduciary duties of our management, directors and controlling shareholder and the rights of our shareholders differ from, and may not be as protective of shareholders as, those that would apply if we were incorporated in a jurisdiction within the United States. Our directors have the power to take certain actions without shareholder approval, including approving certain fundamental corporate transactions, such as reorganizations and the sale or transfer of assets. In addition, there is doubt that the courts of the Cayman Islands would enforce liabilities predicated upon United States federal securities laws.

Our shareholders do not have the same protections or information generally available to shareholders of U.S. corporations because the reporting requirements for foreign private issuers are more limited than those applicable to public corporations organized in the United States.

We are a foreign private issuer within the meaning of rules promulgated under the Exchange Act. We are not subject to certain provisions of the Exchange Act applicable to United States public companies, including: the rules under the Exchange Act requiring the filing with the SEC of quarterly reports on Form 10-Q or current reports on Form 8-K, the sections of the Exchange Act regulating the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations with respect to a security registered under the Exchange Act and the sections of the Exchange Act requiring insiders to file public reports of their stock ownership and trading activities and establishing insider liability for profits realized from any “short-swing” trading transaction (i.e., a purchase and sale, or sale and purchase, of the issuer’s equity securities within six months or less). Because we are not subject to these rules, our shareholders are not afforded the same protections or information generally available to investors in public companies organized in the United States.
