CHINA BIOLOGIC PRODUCTS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2014 AND 2013

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION, SIGNIFICANT CONCENTRATION AND RISKS

(a)

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted by rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The December 31, 2013 consolidated balance sheet was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of China Biologic Products, Inc. (the “Company”). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2013 audited consolidated financial statements of the Company included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of the financial position as of March 31, 2014, the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, have been made. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated on consolidation.

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangibles with definite lives, the allowance for doubtful accounts, the fair value determinations of equity instruments and stock compensation awards, the realizability of deferred tax assets and inventories, the recoverability of intangible assets, land use rights and property, plant and equipment, and accruals for income tax uncertainties and other contingencies.

(b)

Significant Concentration and Risks

The Company’s operations are carried out in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) and are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other matters.

The Company maintains cash and deposit balances at financial institutions which, from time to time, may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits for its bank accounts located in the United States or may exceed Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board insured limits for its bank accounts located in Hong Kong. Cash and deposit balances maintained at financial institutions or state-owned banks in the PRC are not covered by insurance. Total cash at banks and deposits as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 amounted to $179,041,514 and $180,858,848, respectively, of which $253,883 and $679,022 are insured, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in uninsured bank deposits and does not believe that it is exposed to any significant risks on cash held in bank accounts.

The Company’s two major products are human albumin and human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection (“IVIG”). Human albumin accounted for 42.3% and 37.9% of the total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. IVIG accounted for 36.5% and 47.5% of the total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. If the market demands for human albumin and IVIG cannot be sustained in the future or the price of human albumin and IVIG decreases, the Company’s operating results could be adversely affected.

Substantially all of the Company’s customers are located in the PRC. There was one customer that individually comprised 10% or more of the total sales during the three months ended March 31, 2014. There were no customers that individually comprised 10% or more of the total sales during the three months ended March 31, 2013. No individual customer represented 10% or more of trade receivables at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and, generally, requires no collateral from its customers.

There were no suppliers that comprised 10% or more of the total purchases for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. No vendors individually represented more than 10% of accounts payable at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

NOTE 2 – ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

In 2012, Guizhou Taibang made a refundable payment of RMB83,400,000 (approximately $13,535,820) to the local government in connection with the public bidding for a land use right in Guizhou Province. Given the decrease of the land area to be provided by the local government, RMB23,000,000 (approximately $3,732,900) was refunded by the local government. The remaining deposits will be refunded within one year following the completion of the bidding process.

NOTE 6 – RESTRICTED CASH AND DEPOSIT

On August 7, 2013, the Company made a time deposit of RMB186,000,000 (approximately $30,000,000) with China Merchants Bank Beijing Branch (“CMB BJ Branch”) as a security for an 18-month US$30,000,000 loan lent by China Merchants Bank Co., Ltd., New York Branch (“CMB NY Branch”) (see Note 7).

In February 2014, the Company made time deposits of RMB246,500,000 (approximately $40,000,000) and RMB194,600,000 (approximately $31,583,580) with CMB BJ Branch as a security for a 24-month $40,000,000 loan and an 18-month $30,000,000 loan respectively lent by CMB NY Branch (see Note 7).

NOTE 8 – INCOME TAX

On October 31, 2011, Shandong Taibang received a notice from the Shandong provincial government that the High and New Technology Enterprise qualification has been renewed for an additional three years which entitled it to a 15% preferential income tax rate from 2011 to 2013. Subject to reapplication, Shandong Taibang’s High-Tech Enterprise status will enable it to continue to enjoy the preferential income tax rate. Management believes that Shandong Taibang meets all the criteria for the reapplication of High-Tech Enterprise status.

According to Cai Shui [2011] No. 58 dated July 27, 2011, Guizhou Taibang, being a qualified enterprise located in the western region of PRC, enjoys a preferential income tax rate of 15% effective retroactively from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2020.

The Company’s effective income tax rates were 18% and 17% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

As of and for the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits and thus no interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits were recorded. In addition, the Company does not expect that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly within the next 12 months.

NOTE 10 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Management used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of financial instruments at the relevant balance sheet dates:

• Short-term financial instruments (including cash, time deposit, accounts receivable, other receivables, short-term bank loans including current portion of long-term bank loans, accounts payable, other payables and accrued expenses, and amount due to related parties) – The carrying amounts of the short-term financial instruments approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

• Restricted cash and deposit – The carrying amounts of the restricted cash and deposit approximate their fair value. The fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on the Company’s incremental borrowing rates for similar borrowing.

• Long-term bank loan excluding current portion of long-term bank loans– fair value is based on the amount of future cash flows associated with the long-term bank loan discounted at the Company’s current borrowing rate for similar debt instruments of comparable terms. The carrying value of the long-term bank loan approximate its fair value as the long-term bank loan carry variable interest rate which approximate rate currently offered by the Company’s bankers for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities.

Legal proceedings

Dispute among Guizhou Taibang Shareholders over Raising Additional Capital

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

In June 2007, Jie’an brought suit in the High Court of Guizhou province, China, against Guizhou Taibang and the three other original shareholders of Guizhou Taibang, alleging the illegality of the Equity Purchase Agreement. In its complaint, Jie’an claimed that it had a right to acquire the 18,200,000 shares offered to the strategic investors under the Equity Purchase Agreement. In September 2008, the Guizhou High Court ruled against Jie’an and sustained the Equity Purchase Agreement. In November 2008, Jie’an appealed the Guizhou High Court judgment to the People’s Supreme Court in Beijing. In May 2009, the People’s Supreme Court sustained the original ruling and denied the rights of first refusal of Jie’an over the 18,200,000 shares.

During the second quarter of 2010, Jie’an requested that Guizhou Taibang register its 1.8 million shares of additional capital injection with the local Administration for Industry and Commerce, or AIC, pursuant to the Equity Purchase Agreement, and such request was approved by the majority shareholders of Guizhou Taibang in a shareholders meeting held in the second quarter of 2010. However, the Board of Directors of the Company is withholding its required ratification of the shareholders’ approval of Jie’an’s request, pending the outcome of the ongoing litigation. In March 2012, the Company received a subpoena that Jie’an brought suit in the People’s Court of Huaxi District, Guizhou Province, against Guizhou Taibang, alleging Guizhou Taibang’s withholding of its request. Jie’an requested that Guizhou Taibang register its 1.8 million shares of capital injection, pay dividends associated with these shares, as well as the related interest and penalty from May 2007 to December 2011 amounting to $3,967,500 (or RMB25,000,000) in aggregate, and return the over-paid subscription of $228,528 (or RMB1,440,000), as well as the interest and penalty, amounting to $1,587,000 (or RMB10,000,000) in aggregate. The People’s Court of Huaxi District, Guizhou Province, has accepted Jie’an’s suit. In May 2012, Guizhou Taibang was informed by the court that the case was postponed upon the request from Jie’an.

In December 2013, Jie’an brought suit again in the People’s Court of Huaxi District, Guizhou Province, against Guizhou Taibang, again alleging Guizhou Taibang’s withholding of its request. The People’s Court of Huaxi District, Guizhou Province, has accepted Jie’an’s suit and heard the case on February 26, 2014. The Company is awaiting the judgment as of the date of this report. If the Company decides to ratify the approval or the case is ruled in Jie’an’s favor, Dalin’s ownership in Guizhou Taibang will be diluted from 54% to 52.54% and Jie’an may be entitled to receive its pro rata share of Guizhou Taibang’s profits since the date on which Jie’an’s capital contribution became effective. As this case is closely tied to the outcome of the strategic investors’ dispute stated below, the Company does not expect Jie’an to prevail. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had recorded, in its balance sheet, payables to Jie’an in the amounts of RMB5,040,000 (approximately $817,992) for the additional funds received in relation to the 1.8 million shares of capital infusion, RMB1,440,000 (approximately $233,712) for the over-paid subscription and RMB3,035,737 (approximately $492,700) for the accrued interest.

As a result of this dispute, the strategic investors’ equity ownership in Guizhou Taibang and the related increase in registered capital of Guizhou Taibang have not been registered with the local AIC. In January 2010, the strategic investors brought suit in the High Court of Guizhou Province against Guizhou Taibang alleging Guizhou Taibang’s failure to register their equity interest in Guizhou Taibang with the local AIC and requesting the distribution of their share of Guizhou Taibang’s dividends declared since 2007. Dalin was also joined as a co-defendant as it is the majority shareholder and exercises control over Guizhou Taibang’s day-to-day operations.

In October, 2010, the High Court of Guizhou ruled in favor of the Company and denied the strategic investors’ right as shareholders of Guizhou Taibang, as well as their entitlement to the dividends. In light of this ruling, the Company returned the proceeds of $1,699,040 (or RMB11,200,000) to one of the strategic investors in November 2010. In October 2010, the other strategic investors appealed to the PRC Supreme Court in Beijing on the ruling of the High Court of Guizhou. The PRC Supreme Court overruled the decision of the High Court of Guizhou and remanded the case to the High Court of Guizhou for retrial. In January 2012, the strategic investors re-filed their case to the High Court of Guizhou requesting, in addition to the share distribution, the distribution of dividends and interest in the amount of RMB18,349,345 (approximately $2,978,099) and RMB2,847,000 (approximately $462,068), respectively. In December 2012, the High Court of Guizhou affirmed the judgment against the strategic investors. In January 2013, the strategic investors appealed to the PRC Supreme Court on the ruling again and the appeal was accepted.

In September 2013, the PRC Supreme Court made the final judgment against the strategic investors and denied the strategic investors’ right as shareholders of Guizhou Taibang and their claim for the related dividend distribution. In November 2013, the strategic investors requested the PRC Supreme Court to reconsider the judgment and such request was rejected by the PRC Supreme Court on January 17, 2014. As of March 31, 2014, Guizhou Taibang had made provision for the strategic investors’ initial fund along with RMB17,777,742 (approximately $2,885,328) in accrued interest, and RMB509,600 (approximately $82,708) for the 1% penalty imposed by the agreement for any breach in the event that Guizhou Taibang is required to return their original investment amount to the strategic investors.

In April 2013, the Company countersued the strategic investors in the Intermediate Court of Guiyang City alleging their breach of the Security Law in the PRC and requested a consideration of $6,064,800 (or RMB38,000,000) for the related expenses and losses, and Guizhou Intermediate Court accepted the case. The Company is awaiting the hearing of the above case as of the date of this report.

In 2007, Guizhou Taibang received additional contributions from Jie’an of $962,853 (or RMB6,480,000) to maintain Jie’an’s equity interest in Guizhou Taibang at 9%. However, due to a legal dispute among shareholders over raising additional capital as discussed in the legal proceeding section (see Note 12), the contribution is subject to be returned to Jie’an. During the second quarter of 2010, Jie’an requested that Guizhou Taibang register its 1.8 million shares of additional capital contribution with the local AIC, pursuant to the Equity Purchase Agreement, and such registration was approved by the majority shareholders of Guizhou Taibang in a shareholders’ meeting held in the second quarter of 2010. However, the Board of Directors of the Company is withholding its required ratification of the shareholders’ approval of Jie’an’s request until the completion of the ongoing litigations. If the Company decided to ratify the approval, Dalin’s ownership in Guizhou Taibang will be diluted from 54% to 52.54% and Jie’an will be entitled to receive its pro rata share of Guizhou Taibang’s profits since the date on which Jie’an’s contribution became effective. As this case is closely tied to the outcome of the strategic investors’ dispute stated above, the Company has recorded, in its balance sheet, payables to Jie’an in the amounts of RMB5,040,000 (approximately $817,992) for the additional funds received in relation to the 1.8 million shares of capital infusion, RMB1,440,000 (approximately $233,712) for the over-paid subscription and RMB3,035,737 (approximately $492,700) for the accrued interest and penalty at March 31, 2014.

Overview of Our Business

We are a biopharmaceutical company principally engaged in the research, development, manufacturing and sales of human plasma-based pharmaceutical products in China. We have two majority owned subsidiaries, Shandong Taibang, a company based in Tai’an, Shandong Province and Guizhou Taibang, a company based in Guiyang, Guizhou Province. We also hold a minority equity interest in Huitian, a company based in Xi’an, Shaanxi Province. The human plasma-based biopharmaceutical manufacturing industry in China is highly regulated by both provincial and central governments. Accordingly, the manufacturing process of our products is strictly monitored from the initial collection of plasma from human donors to finished products.

Our principal products are human albumin and immunoglobulin products. Albumin has been used for almost 50 years to treat critically ill patients by replacing lost fluid and maintaining adequate blood volume and pressure. Immunoglobulin is used for certain disease prevention and treatment by enhancing specific immunity. These products use human plasma as the principal raw material. Human albumin and human immunoglobulin for intravenous injection, or IVIG products, are our top-selling products. Sales of human albumin products represented approximately 42.3% and 37.9% of our total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Sales of IVIG products represented approximately 36.5% and 47.5% of our total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. All of our products are prescription medicines administered in the form of injections.

We sell our products primarily to hospitals and inoculation centers in the PRC directly or through approved distributors. We usually sign short-term contracts with customers and therefore our largest customers have changed over the years. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, our top five customers accounted for approximately 23.3% and 8.8%, respectively, of our total sales. As we continue to expand our geographic presence and diversify our customer base and product mix, we expect that our largest customers will continue to change from year to year.

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

Our principal executive offices are located at 18 ^th Floor, Jialong International Building, 19 Chaoyang Park Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing 100125, the People’s Republic of China. Our corporate telephone number is + (86) 10-6598-3111 and our fax number is + (86) 10-6598-3222.

Sales

Our sales increased by $2,234,845, or 4.1%, to $56,266,577 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $54,031,732 for the same period in 2013. Such increase of sales was mainly due to the increase in sales by Shandong Taibang for the first quarter of 2014, partially offset by the reduced sales volume as a result of the planned production suspension of Guizhou Taibang during this period. The increased sales by Shandong Taibang were attributable to a combined effect of price and volume increases of certain plasma-based products during this period. On the other hand, Guizhou Taibang reduced the sales volume of its plasma-based products during this period in order to smooth out the impact of the reduced production volume and maintain its sales channels and customer relationships during the period of production suspension. Guizhu Taibang has suspended its production since June 2013. In addition, foreign exchange translation accounted for 2.6% of the sales increase.

The following table summarizes the breakdown of sales by significant types of product:

	For the three Months Ended March 31,						Change
	2014			2013
		$	%		$	%	Amount			%
Human Albumin		23,781,001	42.3		20,501,311	37.9		3,279,690			16.0
Immunoglobulin products:
IVIG		20,529,771	36.5		25,661,871	47.5		(5,132,100	)		(20.0	)

Totals		56,266,577	100.0		54,031,732	100.0		2,234,845			4.1

During the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013:

the average price for our approved human albumin products, which accounted for 42.3% of our total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014, increased by approximately 5.2% and, excluding the foreign exchange translation effect, their average price in RMB term increased by approximately 2.5%; and

the average price for our approved IVIG products, which accounted for 36.5% of our total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014, increased by approximately 0.9%, and excluding the foreign exchange translation effect, their average price in RMB term decreased by approximately 1.7%.

The price increase of human albumin products was mainly due to the increase of retail price ceiling announced by China National Development and Reform Commission in January 2013, which came into effect on February 1, 2013. This increased retail price ceiling provides us with more flexibility in pricing our human albumin products and allows us to increase our ex-factory prices in certain regional markets. The price decrease of IVIG products, excluding the foreign exchange translation effect, was mainly attributable to the increased sales through distributors in tier one cities. To improve brand recognition, we increased our market share in tier one cities through distributors with lower sale price as compared to our direct sales to hospitals for the first quarter of 2014, resulting in a decline on the average sales price.

The sales volumes of our products in general depend on market demands and our production volumes. The production volumes of our human albumin products depend primarily on general plasma supply. The production volumes of our IVIG products depend primarily on general plasma supply and secondarily on the allocation of production capacity among human immunoglobulin products, which include IVIG and other hyper-immune products. The production volumes of our hyper-immune products, which include human rabies immunoglobulin, human hepatitis B immunoglobulin and human tetanus immunoglobulin products, are subject to the availabilities of specific vaccinated plasma and our production capacity. The supply of specific vaccinated plasma in general requires several months of lead time. Our production facility currently can only accommodate the production of one type of hyper-immune products at any given time and we rotate the production of different types of hyper-immune products from time to time in response to market demand. As such, the sales volume of any given type of hyper-immune products may vary significantly from quarter to quarter. Depending on the market demand and profit margins of IVIG products and hyper-immune products at any given period, we also adjust the production volume of IVIG products from time to time to optimize our product mix.

The sales volume of our human albumin products increased by 10.3% in the first quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013. The increase in sales volume of human albumin products was primarily due to increased sales volumes at Shandong Taibang, partially offset by reduced sales volume as a result of the planned production suspension of Guizhou Taibang during this period. The increase of the sales volume was in line with the increase of the market demand for domestic human albumin as a result of the decreased importation in the first quarter of 2014. The sales volume of our IVIG products decreased by 20.7% in the first quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013. The decrease in sales volume of IVIG was primarily due to the reduced production volume as a result of the planned production suspension of Guizhou Taibang during this period. In addition, Shandong Taibang increased the production of human rabies immunoglobulin products with comparatively higher gross margin and thus reduced the production of IVIG products for the first quarter of 2014.

The sales increase of other immunoglobulin products in the first quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 was mainly attributable to the increase in sales volume of human rabies immunoglobulin products, partially offset by the decrease in sales volume of human tetanus immunoglobulin products. The increase in sales volume of human rabies immunoglobulin was primarily a result of increased production volume during this period. We increased the supply of rabies vaccinated plasma and expanded their production in Shandong Taibang starting in the second half of 2013. The improvements on production yield as a result of our research and development efforts also contributed to the increase of production volume. For the first quarter of 2014, we increased our sales of human rabies immunoglobulin products by $5,235,592 as compared to the same period in 2013. The decrease in sales volume of human tetanus immunoglobulin products was primarily a result of the planned production suspension of Guizhou Taibang during this period.

The sales increase of other products in the first quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 was mainly attributable to the ramp-up of human coagulation factor VIII (200IU) in Shandong Taibang, which was launched in early 2013.

Cost of sales & gross profit

	For the three Months Ended March 31,						Change
	2014			2013			Amount		%
Cost of sales	$	17,715,166		$	16,616,758		$	1,098,408		6.6	%
as a percentage of total sales		31.5	%		30.8	%				0.7	%
Gross Profit	$	38,551,411		$	37,414,974		$	1,136,437		3.0	%
Gross Margin		68.5	%		69.2	%				(0.7	%)

Our cost of sales was $17,715,166, or 31.5% of our sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014, as compared to $16,616,758, or 30.8% of our sales for the same period in 2013. Our gross profit was $38,551,411 and $37,414,974 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, representing gross margins of 68.5% and 69.2%, respectively. In general, our cost of sales and gross margin are affected by the volume and pricing of our sold products, raw material costs, production mix and respective yields, inventory provisions, production cycles and routine maintenance costs.

The increase in cost of sales in the three month ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 was largely in line with the increases in sales volume and cost of plasma. In an effort to increase plasma collection volume and expand our donor base, we increased the nutrition fees paid to donors, which was in line with the industry practice. We expected the nutrition fees to be paid to donors continue to increase as a result of improving living standards in China. Consequently, future improvements on margins will need to be derived from increases in product pricing and volume, product mix, yields and manufacturing efficiency. The increase in cost of sales as a percentage of sales in the three month ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 was mainly due to the increase in cost of plasma partially offset by the change of our product mix to include products with higher margins.

Operating expenses

	For the three Months Ended March 31,						Change
	2014			2013			Amount			%
Operating expenses	$	10,572,678		$	11,436,582		$	(863,904	)		(7.6	%)
as a percentage of total sales		18.8	%		21.2	%					(2.4	%)

Our total operating expenses decreased by $863,904, or 7.6%, to $10,572,678 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, from $11,436,582 for the same period in 2013. As a percentage of sales, total expenses decreased by 2.4% to 18.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2014, from 21.2% for the same period in 2013. The decrease of the total operating expenses was mainly due to the decrease of the general and administrative expenses as discussed below.

Selling expenses

	For the three Months Ended March 31,						Change
	2014			2013			Amount		%
Selling expenses	$	2,282,486		$	1,836,393		$	446,093		24.3	%
as a percentage of total sales		4.1	%		3.4	%				0.7	%

Our selling expenses increased by $446,093, or 24.3%, to $2,282,486 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, from $1,836,393 for the same period in 2013. As a percentage of sales, our selling expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased by 0.7% to 4.1%, from 3.4% for the same period in 2013. The increase was mainly due to the increased sales of placenta polypeptide with comparatively higher selling expenses for the first quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013.

General and administrative expenses

	For the three Months Ended March 31,						Change
	2014			2013			Amount			%
General and administrative expenses	$	7,216,626		$	8,687,097		$	(1,470,471	)		(16.9	%)
as a percentage of total sales		12.8	%		16.1	%					(3.3	%)

Our general and administrative expenses decreased by $1,470,471, or 16.9%, to $7,216,626 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, from $8,687,097 for the same period in 2013. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales decreased by 3.3% to 12.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2014, from 16.1% for the same period in 2013. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was mainly due to a decrease of share-based compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the same period of 2013. In addition, we incurred amortization expenses in the first quarter of 2013 in relation to the GMP certificates with respect to the acquisition of Guizhou Taibang in 2008. Given that such intangible assets had been fully amortized by the end of 2013, we did not incur the corresponding expenses in the first quarter of 2014.

Research and development expenses

	For the three Months Ended March 31,						Change
	2014			2013			Amount		%
Research and development expenses	$	1,073,566		$	913,092		$	160,474		17.6	%
as a percentage of total sales		1.9	%		1.7	%				0.2	%

Our research and development expenses increased by $160,474, or 17.6%, to $1,073,566 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, from $913,092 for the same period in 2013. As a percentage of sales, our research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were 1.9% and 1.7%, respectively. The increase in research and development expenses was mainly due to the expenditure paid for certain clinical trial programs and the engagement of external experts for certain pipeline products during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Income tax

	For the three Months Ended March 31,						Change
	2014			2013			Amount		%
Income tax	$	5,338,218		$	4,606,902		$	731,316		15.9	%
as a percentage of total sales		9.5	%		8.5	%				1.0	%

Our provision for income taxes increased by $731,316, or 15.9%, to $5,338,218 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, from $4,606,902 for the same period in 2013. Our effective income tax rates were 18.2% and 17.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The difference between our effective income tax rate and the tax rate of 15% applicable to our major operating subsidiaries in the PRC for the period ended March 31, 2014 was primarily due to the withholding income tax expenses accrued on Shandong Taibang’s net income for the period ended March 31, 2014 as a result of its dividend policy.

Net income attributable to the Company

	For the three Months Ended March 31,						Change
	2014			2013			Amount		%
Net income attributable to the Company	$	18,273,671		$	14,915,860		$	3,357,811		22.5	%
as a percentage of total sales		32.5	%		27.6	%				4.9	%

Our net income attributable to the Company increased by $3,357,811, or 22.5%, to $18,273,671 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, from $14,915,860 for the same period in 2013. Net income attributable to the Company as a percentage of total sales was 32.5% and 27.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The difference was attributable to the cumulative effect of the foregoing factors.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

To date, we have financed our operations primarily through cash flows from operations, augmented by bank borrowings and equity contributions by our stockholders. As of March 31, 2014, we had $77,548,247 in cash and cash equivalents, primarily consisting of cash on hand and demand deposits.

The following table provides the summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

Cash Flow

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2014			2013
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	11,515,353		$	22,030,185
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities		949,579			(5,777,026	)
Net cash used in financing activities		(78,238,102	)		(7,731,687	)

Cash and cash equivalents at end of the period	$	77,548,247		$	138,709,901

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $11,515,353, as compared to $22,030,185 for the same period in 2013. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was mainly due to the increase of accounts receivable and inventories and the decrease of advances from customers for the first quarter of 2014. The increase in accounts receivable was $6,391,825, as compared to $ 3,294,140 in the same period of 2013. This increases was primarily due to the delay in our shipment of, and hence customers’ payments for, certain batches of products during the three months ended March 31, 2014. This delay was the result of delayed inspection and approval by National Institutes for Food and Drug Control on such products. The increase in inventories was $2,865,378 for the three months ended March 31, 2014, as compared to $ 647,310 in the same period of 2013, mainly attributable to the increase of raw materials due to the continued supply of plasma, our primary raw material, by plasma stations of Guizhou Taibang while the production of plasma products at Guizhou Taibang had been suspended since June 2013. The decrease of advances from customers was $1,359,641 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 , as compared to the increase of $1,451,180 in the same period of 2013. This decrease was primarily due to a lump sum prepayment made by certain distributors in the fourth quarter of 2013 for certain immunoglobulin products. A portion of these products were delivered during the three months ended March 31, 2014, upon which the prepayment was recognized as sales.

Investing Activities

Net cash provided by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $949,579, as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $5,777,026 for the same period in 2013. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we received a refund of deposit of $1,635,200 from the local government due to the decrease in the size of a parcel of land to be granted to us in Guizhou. Further, we received $6,608,612 upon the maturity of a time deposit. We paid $7,469,129 for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, and land use right for Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang during the three months ended March 31, 2014. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we paid $5,779,442 for the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and land use right at Shandong Taibang and Guizhou Taibang.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 totaled $78,238,102, as compared to $7,731,687 for the same period in 2013. The net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2014 mainly consisted of a payment of $70,000,000 for share repurchase, a deposit of $72,128,672 as cash collateral for certain long-term bank loans, a repayment of $4,905,600 on a short-term bank loan, and a dividend of $1,409,542 paid by our subsidiaries to the noncontrolling interest shareholders, partially offset by proceeds of $70,000,000 from certain long-term bank loans. The net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was mainly due to a repayment of $3,186,400 on a short-term bank loan and a dividend of $4,397,232 paid by our subsidiaries to the noncontrolling interest shareholders.

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

Obligations under Material Contracts

The following table sets forth our material contractual obligations as of March 31, 2014:

	Payments Due by Period

Seasonality of Our Sales

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

Inflation

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

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

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

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are those we believe are most important to portraying our financial conditions and results of operations and also require the greatest amount of subjective or complex judgments by management. Judgments and uncertainties regarding the application of these policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under various conditions or using different assumptions. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

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

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily with respect to our bank loans. We have not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest rate risk exposure. We have not been exposed nor do we anticipate being exposed to material risks due to changes in interest rates. However, our future interest expenses may increase due to changes in market interest rates.

A hypothetical 1.0% increase in the annual interest rates for all of our credit facilities under which we had outstanding borrowings as of March 31, 2014 would decrease net income before provision for income taxes by approximately $262,173 for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Management monitors the banks’ prime rates in conjunction with our cash requirements to determine the appropriate level of debt balances relative to other sources of funds. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to interest rate risk.

Foreign Exchange Risk

All of our consolidated revenues and consolidated costs and majority of expenses are denominated in RMB. All of our assets are denominated in RMB, except certain cash balances. However, certain of our loan facilities are denominated in U.S. Dollar and our reporting currency is U.S. Dollar. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between U.S. Dollars and RMB. If RMB depreciates against the U.S. Dollar, the value of our RMB revenues, earnings and assets as expressed in our U.S. Dollar financial statements will decline. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates 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 stockholders’ equity. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange risk.

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

Account Balances

We maintain balances at financial institutions which, from time to time, may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limits for the banks located in the United States or may exceed Hong Kong Deposit Protection Board insured limits for the banks located in Hong Kong. Balances at financial institutions or state-owned banks within the PRC are not covered by insurance. Total cash at banks and deposits as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 amounted to $179,041,514 and $180,858,848, respectively, $253,883 and $679,022 of which are covered by insurance, respectively. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and we do not believe that we are exposed to any significant risks on our cash at banks and deposits.

Inflation

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

Market for Human Albumin and IVIG

Our two major products, human albumin and IVIG, accounted for 42.3% and 36.5% of the total sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014, respectively. If the market demands for human albumin or IVIG cannot be sustained in the future or if there is substantial price decrease in either or both products, our operating results could be materially and adversely affected.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

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

As required by Rule 13a-15(e), our management has carried out an evaluation, with the participation and under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. David (Xiaoying) Gao and our Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Ming Yang, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of March 31, 2014. Based on that evaluation, Mr. Gao and Mr. Yang concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2014.
