Corporate History
We were incorporated on December 22, 2008 under the laws of the State of Nevada. We were formerly known as Trade Link Wholesalers Inc. (“Trade Link”). On April 4, 2011, the Board of Directors of Trade Link filed an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation with the State of Nevada and changed our name from Trade Link to China Modern Agricultural Information, Inc.
On January 28, 2011, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) by and among (i) Value Development Holding, a British Virgin Islands company, (ii) Value Development Holding’s shareholders, (iii) us, and (iv) our former principal stockholders. Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, Value Development Holding’s shareholders transferred to us all of the shares of Value Development Holding in exchange for the issuance of 35,998,000 shares of our common stock (the “Securities Exchange”). The shares issued to Value Development Holding’s shareholder in the Securities Exchange constituted approximately 87.80% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of and immediately after the consummation of the Securities Exchange. As a result of the Securities Exchange, Value Development Holding became our wholly owned subsidiary and Value Development Holding’s former principal stockholder became our principal stockholders.
Value Development Holdings was incorporated under the laws of British Virgin Islands on June 24, 2010 to serve as an investment holding company. Value Development Holdings owns 100% of the equity interest of Value Development Group, a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong on September 17, 2010. Value Development Group owns 100% of the equity interest of Jiasheng Consulting, a company incorporated under the laws of China on September 15, 2010.
On December 21, 2010, Jiasheng Consulting entered into a series of agreements (the “Contractual Arrangements”) with Zhongxian Information, a company incorporated under the laws of the PRC, and its shareholders, in which Jiasheng Consulting effectively assumed management of the business activities of Zhongxian Information and its 99% owned subsidiary Heilongjiang Xinhua Cattle, and acquired the right to appoint all executives and senior management and the members of the Board of Directors of Zhongxian Information. Zhongxian Information was founded on January 21 2005, and is headquartered in the Limin Development Zone, Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, with registered capital of 10 million RMB or $1,206,800. The Contractual Arrangements are comprised of a series of agreements, including an Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement, Exclusive Option Agreement, and an Equity Interest Pledge Agreement, through which Jiasheng Consulting has the right to provide exclusive complete business support and technical and consulting service to Zhongxian Information. Additionally, Zhongxian Information’s shareholders have pledged their rights, titles and equity interest in Zhongxian Information as security for Jiasheng Consulting to collect consulting and services fees provided to Zhongxian Information through an Equity Pledge Agreement. In order to further reinforce Jiasheng Consulting’s rights to control and operate Zhongxian Information, the shareholders of Zhongxian Information have granted Jiasheng Consulting the exclusive right and option to acquire all of their equity interests in Zhongxian Information through an Exclusive Option Agreement.
Zhongxian Information was incorporated in China in January 2005 with registered capital of 10 million Renminbi or $1,206,800. In February 2006, Zhongxian Information acquired 99% of the registered capital of Xinhua Cattle, which was incorporated in China in December 2005 with registered capital of three million RMB or $371,580. On November 23, 2011, Zhongxian Information acquired 100% of the equity interest of Yulong Cattle in exchange for (i) issuance of 9,000,000 shares of our common stock, and (ii) cash payment of $4,396,000, to Yulong Cattle’s former shareholders. Yulong Cattle was incorporated on December 4, 2007 under the laws of the PRC. Yulong Cattle, located in Harbin, Heilongjiang, northeast of China, is a livestock company that engages in cow breeding and fresh milk production, and primarily generates its revenue from the sale of fresh milk.
Our current corporate structure is set forth below:
Our Business Model
We generate revenues from three sources: fresh milk sales, processing and sales of green organic fertilizer, and assisting local farmers with their fresh milk sale efforts.
Fresh Milk
We exclusively use Holstein cows for our milk production. Holstein cows are well-regarded for their abundant milk production and high quality milk. Our cows currently have an average milking period of 305 days, and produce milk that contains approximately 3.5% fat. Each adult cow produces 6500 to 7500 kilogram annually.
Our farmland is located in the Heilongjiang province which has a humid continental climate. This climate is ideal for the growth of grass, which in turn is essential in the grazing and feeding of our cattle that aids in our breeding of cows and calves, fresh milk production and organic fertilizer production. We maintain strict quality control and testing procedures to ensure our milk products are of high quality. The milk production and quality controls ensure that the milk produced is high in nutrients and active biological substances.
Cow Feeders
Xinhua Cattle outsources over 90% of the cow feeding to local farmers pursuant to a series entrust feeding agreements with the local farmers. Pursuant to these agreements, we pay for the fostering fees and feed costs. In return, the local farmers provide us with the fresh milk produced by the cows.
Pursuant to these entrust feeding agreements, we entrust our cattle to local farmers to assist in a more efficient means to produce fresh milk, as well as manure, used in our production of organic fertilizer. In that regard, we pay a monthly fee to local farmers that correlate to the number of calves, cattle and cows that are placed in their care. Pursuant to the agreements, local farmers are responsible for the feeding and raising of the cattle as well as the fresh milk production. Additionally, these local farmers ensure that each cow produces a minimum of 20 kilogram of milk daily.
We pay a monthly feeding fee to the local farmers of $8.0 per baby cow, $11.1 per pre-adult cow, $15.9 per young cow and $31.8 per adult cow, respectively. We also pay for food costs every month to the local farmers of $45 per baby cow, $56 per pre-adult cow, $60 per young cow, and $86 per adult cow, respectively.
Local farmers are responsible for milk production and are required to timely deliver the milk production daily. All of the raw milk produced by the cattle is owned by us. Additionally, the local farmers are contractually obligated to conduct periodic breeding for the young cattle and cows, at our expense. The breeding is overseen by veterinarians of our choosing. All calves produced by our entrusted cows are our property, and all calve births are overseen by veterinarians of our choosing. All cow waste produced by our entrusted cattle is owned by us. The local farmers are obligated to collect the waste and provide it to us for further processing, and eventual sale as organic fertilizer.

Organic Fertilizer
As a by-product of the fresh milk production, we use the resulting manure as a source of additional revenue. We combine the raw material, the manure, with inoculating complex microbial agents, and then ferment the product using biological and chemical processes and microbial fermentation technology, which produces the organic fertilizer.
Our fertilizer product is unique, in that it decomposes slowly, maintains long fertilizing effect and slow nutrient loss. It can effectively promote the proliferation of useful microorganisms and enhance soil fertility, resulting in more abundant crop growth.
Zhongxian Information has formed a livestock business system which integrates fresh milk production and organic fertilizer production for direct sale to suppliers.
The sale of organic fertilizer only makes up a very small amount of our total revenue. We generated USD $38,335 in revenue from our organic fertilizer sales in the year ending June 30, 2013 and USD $49,229 in revenue from our organic fertilizer sales in the year ending on June 30, 2012. Jianfa Bio-Organic Fertilizer Plant was the sole customer for our organic fertilizer products from 2006 to June 2011. Since July 2011, we have been selling our organic fertilizer products to Heilongjiang Soyang Bio Energy Development Ltd.
Sales Commissions
In addition to selling fresh milk to Chinese manufacturing and distribution companies of dairy products, we started to sell our milk cows to local farmer in exchange for monthly payments from the local farmers on their monthly milk sales since June 2011. The monthly payments represent the monthly installments, including interest, for the purchase price of milk cows sold, or a mix of the purchase price and commissions for our assistance in arranging for their milk sales.
Research and Development
We had no expenses on research and development activities during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Intellectual Property
We regard the protection of our copyrights, service marks, trademarks, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights as critical to our future success.

China Regulations
This section sets forth a summary of the most significant Chinese regulations or requirements that may affect our business activities operated in China or our shareholders’ right to receive dividends and other distributions of profits from the PRC subsidiaries.
Foreign Investment in PRC Operating Companies
The Foreign Investment Industrial Catalogue jointly issued by the MOFCOM and the National Development and Reform Commission or the NDRC in 2007 classified various industries/business into three different categories: (i) encouraged for foreign investment; (ii) restricted to foreign investment; and (iii) prohibited from foreign investment. For any industry/business not covered by any of these three categories, they will be deemed industries/business permitted to have foreign investment. Except for those expressly provided restrictions, encouraged and permitted industries/business are usually 100% open to foreign investment and ownership. With regard to those industries/business restricted to or prohibited from foreign investment, there is always a limitation on foreign investment and ownership. The PRC Subsidiary’s business does not fall under the industry categories that are restricted to, or prohibited from foreign investment and is not subject to limitation on foreign investment and ownership.
Regulation of Foreign Currency Exchange
Foreign currency exchange in the PRC is governed by a series of regulations, including the Foreign Currency Administrative Rules (1996), as amended, and the Administrative Regulations Regarding Settlement, Sale and Payment of Foreign Exchange (1996), as amended. Under these regulations, the Renminbi is freely convertible for trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, but not for direct investment, loans or investments in securities outside the PRC without the prior approval of SAFE. Pursuant to the Administrative Regulations Regarding Settlement, Sale and Payment of Foreign Exchange (1996), FIEs may purchase foreign exchange without the approval of SAFE for trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions by providing commercial documents evidencing these transactions. They may also retain foreign exchange, subject to a cap approved by SAFE, to satisfy foreign exchange liabilities or to pay dividends. However, the relevant Chinese government authorities may limit or eliminate the ability of FIEs to purchase and retain foreign currencies in the future. In addition, foreign exchange transactions for direct investment, loan and investment in securities outside the PRC are still subject to limitations and require approvals from SAFE.
Regulation of FIEs’ Dividend Distribution
The principal laws and regulations in the PRC governing distribution of dividends by FIEs include:
(i)
The Sino-foreign Equity Joint Venture Law (1979), as amended, and the Regulations for the Implementation of the Sino-foreign Equity Joint Venture Law (1983), as amended;
(ii)
The Sino-foreign Cooperative Enterprise Law (1988), as amended, and the Detailed Rules for the Implementation of the Sino-foreign Cooperative Enterprise Law (1995), as amended;
(iii)
The Foreign Investment Enterprise Law (1986), as amended, and the Regulations of Implementation of the Foreign Investment Enterprise Law (1990), as amended.
Under these regulations, FIEs in the PRC may pay dividends only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations. In addition, foreign-invested enterprises in the PRC are required to set aside at least 10% of their respective accumulated profits each year, if any, to fund certain reserve funds unless such reserve funds have reached 50% of their respective registered capital. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. The board of directors of a FIE has the discretion to allocate a portion of its after-tax profits to staff welfare and bonus funds, which may not be distributed to equity owners except in the event of liquidation.
Regulation of a Foreign Currency’s Conversion into RMB and Investment by FIEs
On August 29, 2008, SAFE issued a Notice of the General Affairs Department of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange on the Relevant Operating Issues concerning the Improvement of the Administration of Payment and Settlement of Foreign Currency Capital of Foreign-Invested Enterprises or Notice 142, to further regulate the foreign exchange of FIEs. According to the Notice 142, FIEs shall obtain verification report from a local accounting firm before converting its registered capital of foreign currency into Renminbi, and the converted Renminbi shall be used for the business within its permitted business scope. The Notice 142 explicitly prohibits FIEs from using RMB converted from foreign capital to make equity investments in the PRC, unless the domestic equity investment is within the approved business scope of the FIE and has been approved by SAFE in advance.
Regulation of Foreign Exchange in Certain Onshore and Offshore Transactions
In October 2005, SAFE issued the Notice on Issues Relating to the Administration of Foreign Exchange in Fund-raising and Return Investment Activities of Domestic Residents Conducted via Offshore Special Purpose Companies, or SAFE Notice 75, which became effective as of November 1, 2005, and was further supplemented by two implementation notices issued by SAFE on November 24, 2005 and May 29, 2007, respectively. SAFE Notice 75 states that PRC residents, whether natural or legal persons, must register with the relevant local SAFE branch prior to establishing or taking control of an offshore entity established for the purpose of overseas equity financing involving onshore assets or equity interests held by them. The term “PRC legal person residents” as used in SAFE Notice 75 refers to those entities with legal person status or other economic organizations established within the territory of the PRC. The term “PRC natural person residents” as used in SAFE Notice 75 includes all PRC citizens and all other natural persons, including foreigners, who habitually reside in the PRC for economic benefit. SAFE implementation notice of November 24, 2005 further clarifies that the term “PRC natural person residents” as used under SAFE Notice 75 refers to those “PRC natural person residents” defined under the relevant PRC tax laws and those natural persons who hold any interests in domestic entities that are classified as “domestic-funding” interests.
PRC residents are required to complete amended registrations with the local SAFE branch upon: (i) injection of equity interests or assets of an onshore enterprise to the offshore entity, or (ii) subsequent overseas equity financing by such offshore entity. PRC residents are also required to complete amended registrations or filing with the local SAFE branch within 30 days of any material change in the shareholding or capital of the offshore entity, such as changes in share capital, share transfers and long-term equity or debt investments and these changes do not relate to return investment activities. PRC residents who have already organized or gained control of offshore entities that have made onshore investments in the PRC before SAFE Notice 75 was promulgated must register their shareholdings in the offshore entities with the local SAFE branch on or before March 31, 2006.
Under SAFE Notice 75, PRC residents are further required to repatriate into the PRC all of their dividends, profits or capital gains obtained from their shareholdings in the offshore entity within 180 days of their receipt of such dividends, profits or capital gains. The registration and filing procedures under SAFE Notice 75 are prerequisites for other approval and registration procedures necessary for capital inflow from the offshore entity, such as inbound investments or shareholders loans, or capital outflow to the offshore entity, such as the payment of profits or dividends, liquidating distributions, equity sale proceeds, or the return of funds upon a capital reduction.
Government Regulations Relating to Taxation
On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress or NPC, approved and promulgated the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law, which we refer to as the New EIT Law. The New EIT Law took effect on January 1, 2008. Under the New EIT Law, FIEs and domestic companies are subject to a uniform tax rate of 25%. The New EIT Law provides a five-year transition period starting from its effective date for those enterprises which were established before the promulgation date of the New EIT Law and which were entitled to a preferential lower tax rate under the then-effective tax laws or regulations.
On December 26, 2007, the State Council issued a Notice on Implementing Transitional Measures for Enterprise Income Tax, or the Notice, providing that the enterprises that have been approved to enjoy a low tax rate prior to the promulgation of the New EIT Law will be eligible for a five-year transition period since 1 January, 2008, during which time the tax rate will be increased step by step to the 25% unified tax rate set out in the New EIT Law. From 1 January, 2008, for the enterprises whose applicable tax rate was 15% before the promulgation of the New EIT Law , the tax rate will be increased to 18% for year 2008, 20% for year 2009, 22% for year 2010, 24% for year 2011, 25% for year 2012. For the enterprises whose applicable tax rate was 24%, the tax rate will be changed to 25% from January 1, 2008.
The New EIT Law provides that an income tax rate of 20% may be applicable to dividends payable to non-PRC investors that are “non-resident enterprises”. Non-resident enterprises refer to enterprises which do not have an establishment or place of business in the PRC, or which have such establishment or place of business in the PRC but the relevant income is not effectively connected with the establishment or place of business, to the extent such dividends are derived from sources within the PRC. The income tax for non-resident enterprises shall be subject to withholding at the income source, with the payor acting as the obligatory withholder under the New EIT Law, and therefor such income taxes generally called withholding tax in practice. The State Council of the PRC has reduced the withholding tax rate from 20% to 10% through the Implementation Rules of the New EIT Law. It is currently unclear in what circumstances a source will be considered as located within the PRC. We are a U.S. holding company and substantially all of our income is derived from dividends we receive from our subsidiaries located in the PRC. Thus, if we are considered as a “non-resident enterprise” under the New EIT Law and the dividends paid to us by our subsidiary in the PRC are considered income sourced within the PRC, such dividends may be subject to a 10% withholding tax.
Such income tax may be exempted or reduced by the State Council of the PRC or pursuant to a tax treaty between the PRC and the jurisdictions in which our non-PRC shareholders reside. For example, the 10% withholding tax is reduced to 5% pursuant to the Double Tax Avoidance Agreement Between Hong Kong and Mainland China if the beneficial owner in Hong Kong owns more than 25% of the registered capital in a company in the PRC.
The new tax law provides only a framework of the enterprise tax provisions, leaving many details on the definitions of numerous terms as well as the interpretation and specific applications of various provisions unclear and unspecified. Any increase in the combined company’s tax rate in the future could have a material adverse effect on its financial conditions and results of operations.
Regulations of Overseas Investments and Listings
On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including MOFCOM, CSRC, SASAC, SAT, SAIC and SAFE, jointly amended and released the M&A Rules, which became effective on September 8, 2006. This regulation, among other things, includes provisions that purport to require that an offshore SPV formed for purposes of overseas listing of equity interest in PRC companies and controlled directly or indirectly by PRC companies or individuals obtain the approval of CSRC prior to the listing and trading of such SPV’s securities on an overseas stock exchange. On September 21, 2006, CSRC published on its official website procedures regarding its approval of overseas listings by SPVs. CSRC approval procedures require the filing of a number of documents with CSRC and it would take several months to complete the approval process. The application of the M&A Rules with respect to overseas listings of SPVs remains unclear with no consensus currently existing among the leading PRC law firms regarding the scope of the applicability of CSRC approval requirement.
Regulations on Work Safety
On June 29, 2002, the Work Safety Law (“WSL”) of the PRC was adopted by the Standing Committee of the 9th National People’s Congress and came into effect on November 1, 2002, as amended on August 27, 2009. The WSL provides general work safety requirements for entities engaging in manufacturing and business activities within the PRC. Additionally, Regulation on Work Safety Licenses (“RWSL”), as adopted by the State Council on January 7, 2004 effective on January 13, 2004, requires enterprises engaging in the manufacture of dangerous chemicals to obtain a work safety license with a term of three years. If a work safety license needs to be extended, the enterprise must go through extension procedures with authorities three months prior to its expiration. In addition, on May 17, 2004, the Measures for Implementation of Work Safety Licenses of Dangerous Chemicals Production was promulgated as implementing measures to the Regulation on Work Safety Licenses which provides that entities producing dangerous chemicals are required to obtain work safety licenses pursuant to specific requirements. Without work safety licenses, no entity may engage in the formal manufacture of dangerous chemicals.
The Regulations on the Safety Administration of Dangerous Chemicals (“RSADC”) was promulgated by the State Council on January 26, 2002, effective as of March 15, 2002. It sets forth general requirements for manufacturing and the storage of dangerous chemicals in China. The RSADC requires that companies manufacturing dangerous chemicals establish and strengthen their internal regulations and rules on safety control and fulfill the national standards and other relevant provisions of the State. In addition, according to the RSADC, companies that manufacture, store, transport or use dangerous chemicals shall be required to obtain corresponding approvals or licenses with the State Administration of Work Safety and its local branches and other proper authorities. Companies that manufacture or store dangerous chemicals without approval or registration with the proper authorities can be shut down, ordered to stop manufacturing or ordered to destroy the dangerous chemicals. Such companies can also be subject to fines. If criminal law is violated, the persons chiefly liable, along with other personnel directly responsible for such impropriety, shall be subject to relevant criminal liability.
Regulations on Environmental Protection
According to the Prevention and Control of Water Pollution Law, as adopted by the Standing Committee of the 10th National People’s Congress on February 28, 2008 and effective on June 1, 2008, China adopted a licensing system for pollutant discharge. Companies directly or indirectly responsible for discharge of industrial waste water or medical sewage to waters shall be required to obtain a pollutant discharge license. All companies are prohibited from discharging wastewater and sewage to waters without or in violation of the terms of the pollutant discharge license.
The Regulations on the Administration of Construction Projects Environmental Protection (“RACPEP”), as adopted by the State Council on November 18, 1998 and effective on November 29, 1998, governs construction projects and the impact such projects will have on the environment. Pursuant to the RACPEP, the governing body is responsible for supervising the implementation of a three tiered system that includes (i) reviewing and approving a construction project, (ii) overseeing the construction project and (iii) to inspect the finished construction project and ensure that all harmful pollutants are disposed of correctly. Manufacturing companies are required to apply for inspection with environment protection authorities upon completion of a construction project.

The Food Safety Law of the People’s Republic of China (the “Food Safety Law”) as adopted at the 7th Session of the Standing Committee of the 11th National People’s Congress of the People’s Republic of China and effective on June 1, 2009, governs the food safety in food production and business operation activities. Pursuant to the Food Safety Law, food producers must establish an internal inspection and record system for raw materials and predelivery products, and food distributors must also establish internal systems to record and inspect food products procured from suppliers. In addition, any food addictives that are not in the approved government catalog must not be used and no food products can be sold inspection-free.

Farmland
All land in China is government owned and cannot be sold to any individual or company.
On October 9, 2011, we entered into an operating lease agreement with a municipality of Heilongjiang Province to lease 16,666,750 square meters of grassland effective from October 9, 2011 to October 8, 2021. The rent of $4,686,000 was fully paid on October 14, 2011. Pursuant to the lease agreement, we have the right to occupy, use and transfer during the lease term.
The Company had arrangements with the municipality of Qiqihaer to use a track of land of 250,000 square meters at no cost for the period from December 2, 2005 to December 1, 2015. These arrangements have been terminated. On May 10, 2013, we entered into an agreement with the municipality of Qiqihaer to obtain the “land use right” to use this land effective from May 1, 2013 to Apr 30, 2063.

Overview
We are a leading producer and distributor of raw fresh milk in China. We have three operating entities with an aggregate fresh milk production capacity of approximately 149 tons (approximately 4,731gallons) per day. We also have 39 exclusive individual partners with an aggregate fresh milk production capacity of approximately 245 tons per day. We have five major customers, one of which is the leading dairy company in China.
We were incorporated on December 22, 2008 under the laws of the State of Nevada. We were formerly known as Trade Link. On April 4, 2011, the Board of Directors of Trade Link filed an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation with the State of Nevada and changed our name from Trade Link to China Modern Agricultural Information, Inc.
On January 28, 2011, we entered into the Exchange Agreement by and among (i) Value Development, a British Virgin Islands company, (ii) Value Development’s shareholders, (iii) us, and (iv) our former principal stockholders. Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, Value Development’s shareholders transferred to us all of the shares of Value Development in exchange for the issuance of 35,998,000 shares of our common stock. The shares issued to Value Development’s shareholders in the Securities Exchange constituted approximately 87.80% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of and immediately after the consummation of the Securities Exchange. As a result of the Securities Exchange, Value Development became our wholly owned subsidiary and Value Development’s former principal stockholder became our principal stockholder.
On January 28, 2011, Value Development completed the acquisition of Jiasheng Consulting. Jiasheng Consulting entered into a series of agreements with Zhongxian Information, Mr. Zhengxin Liu, our Chief Human Resource Officer and holder of 62% of equity interest in Zhongxian Information, and Mr. Youliang Wang, our Chief Executive Officer and holder of 38% of equity interest of Zhongxian Information. Pursuant to the Contractual Arrangements, Jiasheng Consulting controls all managerial power of Zhongxian Information. The contractual arrangements include a shareholder voting rights proxy agreement, exclusive consulting and services agreement, exclusive call option agreement and equity pledge agreement, pursuant to which, Jiasheng Consulting shall provide exclusive and complete business support and technical and consulting service to Zhongxian Information in exchange for an annual fee in the amount of Zhongxian Information’s yearly net profits after tax, and Zhongxian Information’s stockholders pledged their rights, titles and equity interest in Zhongxian Information as security for the collection of such consulting and services fees provided in that certain equity pledge agreement.
Zhongxian Information was incorporated in China in January 2005 with registered capital of 10 million Renminbi or $1,206,800 US Dollars. In February 2006, it acquired 99% of the registered capital of Xinhua Cattle, which was incorporated in China in December 2005 with registered capital of three million RMB or $371,580 US Dollars. Xinhua Cattle is located in Qiqihar, Heilongjiang Province, in northeast China and is a livestock company that engages in cow breading and fresh milk distribution.

Yulong Cattle was incorporated on December 4, 2007 under the laws of the PRC. Yulong Cattle, located in Harbin, Heilongjiang, in northeast China, is a livestock company that engages in cow breeding and fresh milk distribution, and primarily generates its revenue from the sale of fresh milk.

There are currently no shares available to be issued.
Recent Development
Bulk sales of milk cows
In June 2011, we sold 2,000 milk cows to six local farmers with the purchase price being paid in installments over a five-year period with a minimum payment of 20% of the sales price annually. No down payment was made by the farmers for these sales in June 2011. In August 2011, through initial negotiation and subsequent modification of sales terms, we sold 5,635 milk cows to 20 local farmers with a 10% down payment plus monthly installments with interest at 7% on any remaining principal payment over a period of the remaining useful life of the cows sold. In September 2011, we also sold 3,787 milk cows to 13 local farmers with monthly installments over a period of the remaining useful life of the cows sold with no down payment. The receivables related to the sales of these all cows is included in notes receivable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2013 and 2012. In addition to monthly installments for the purchase price of the cows sold, these local farmers who bought our cows in August and September 2011 also pay commissions to us each month for our assistance in arranging for the sale of their milk. Pursuant to the agreements with these local farmers entered in August and September 2011, we are entitled to 30% of the monthly milk sales generated by the cows sold. The 30% monthly payments represent the monthly installments for the purchase price of cows sold and commissions for our assistance in arranging for the sale of the milk. We also entered into agreements with local farmers for a 30% commission of their monthly milk sales generated by the cows sold in June 2011. By the end of June 30, 2013, we had 17,231 cows, among which, 12,237 cows continue to be fed by local farmers, 400 cows are maintained by our variable interest entity Xinhua Cattle, and 4,594 cows are maintained by Yulong Cattle.
Starting the quarter ended September 30, 2011, the food costs for feeding cows increased significantly. The food costs paid to the farmers for feeding cows per month increased from $32 to $45 for baby cows, $45 to $56 for pre-adult cows, $48 to $60 for young cows, and $72 to $86 for adult cows, respectively. The feeding fee also increased from $4.8 to $8.0 per baby cow, $8.0 to $11.1 per pre-adult cow, $12.7 to $15.9 per young cow and $28.7 to $31.8 per adult cow. This was the main reason we disposed of a large number of our cows and rented the grassland. This new business model provides us with a new revenue stream for which we incur relatively low direct costs, as the milk production is entirely the responsibility of the local farmers.
Factors Affecting our Results of Operations
Our operating results are primarily affected by the following present factors:
o Dairy Industry Growth. We believe the market for dairy products in China for the long term will grow rapidly, driven by China’s economic growth, improved living quality and increased penetration of infant formula. Accordingly, we believe that the demand of fresh milk will increase rapidly.
o Production Capacity. Our revenue largely depends on our production capacity. The production capacity in this industry is determined by variety, aging and number of adult cows. Accordingly, we acquired Yulong Cattle in November 2011 which increased our number of the cows by 3,800 and improved our production capacity by approximately 90 tons per day.
o Raw Material Supply and Prices. The per unit cost of fresh milk is affected by price volatility of our raw material and feeding expenses in the China markets. In response to the increased cost, we leased the 16,666,750 square meters grassland in October 2011 and 427,572 square meters land in February 2013. We believe that the hay production of this grassland can satisfy our raw material demand and lower our feeding cost.
Results of Operations
The following tables present certain consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income information. Financial information is presented for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Comparison of Years Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012
The following table sets forth certain information regarding our results of operations for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Revenues
The revenue was primarily generated from sales of fresh milk and commissions on fresh milk sales by famers to whom we sold cows. We had total revenues of $46,766,281 for the year ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $16,943,997 or 57%, compared to $29,822,284 for the year ended June 30, 2012. Although the changes to our business operating activities led to the decrease in the revenue of Xinhua Cattle, the successful acquisition of Yulong Cattle in November 2011 led to an increase in total revenue. The following table shows a breakdown of revenue from natural milk sales and sales commission, respectively:
For the year ended June 30, 2013, our revenue generated from natural milk sales was $34,093,893 which represented an increase of $14,281,308 or 72% compared to $19,812,585 for the year ended June 30, 2012. There were two main reasons for such increase: First, the average milk selling price increased from $0.47 per kg to $0.55 per kg, an increase of $0.08 per kg or 17%; Second, the number of our milk cows increased. The following table sets forth information regarding the number of milk cows and the revenue per cow:
The revenue per milk cow increased to $4,861 for the year ended June 30, 2013 from $4,280 for the year ended June 30, 2012, an increase of $581 or 14%. Such increase was a result of the increase in milk selling price as described above.
The increase in total revenue was also contributed by the increase in sales commissions from the local farmers. The sales commissions from local farmers increased by $2,662,689 or 27% to $12,672,388 for the year ended June 30, 2013 from $10,009,699 for the year ended June 30, 2012, which has become one of our main revenue streams.
Gross profit
Our cost of goods sold consists of feeding food, feeding expenses and other direct production overhead which includes labor costs, depreciation, water & electricity, etc. As described, we sold some of our milk cows to local farmers in 2011. Because of the shift of milk production and distribution responsibility from us to local farmers, this change has reduced our direct costs by lowering our feeding food costs and has resulted in a marked improvement in our margins comparing the past two years to 2011.
The cost per milk cow increased to $2,458 for the year ended June 30, 2013 which represented an increase of $147 or 6% compared to $2,311 for the year ended June 30, 2012. The main reason caused such an increase was due to the allocation of the land lease expenses and the increase in other overhead costs.
Gross profit margin
Our gross profit margin decreased to 63% for the year ended June 30, 2013 from 64% for the year ended June 30, 2012. There was no material change in the gross profit margin.
Operating expenses
Our operating expenses decreased to $1,283,399 for the year ended June 30, 2013 from $2,292,568 for the year ended June 30, 2012, a decrease of $1,009,169 or 44%. The difference was principally due to 3,000,000 shares of our common stock issued in the second quarter of 2012, with a fair value of $1,200,000 on the grant date April 16, 2012 and recorded as an expense for the year ended June 30, 2012. The main operating expenses consist of human resources, depreciation, professional fees for filings required by the securities laws of the United States, consulting fees to a Chinese financial advisory company and business taxes, etc. As a result of our new revenue stream, we incurred $709,654 and $560,543 in business tax for the year ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. We classified it as a selling expense which is included in operating expenses.
Operating income
As a result of the foregoing, we had operating income of $28,240,517 for the year ended June 30, 2013, representing an increase of $11,407,622, as compared to operating income of $16,832,895 for the year ended June 30, 2012.
Non-operating income
For the year ended June 30, 2013, non-operating income consists primarily of interest income of $664,327 charged on the outstanding notes receivable from the farmers, a governmental subsidy of $191,677, a loss from the disposal of biological properties of $1,965 due to cold weather and other non operating income of $151,874 which mainly consists of bank interest. For the year ended June 30, 2012, non-operating income consists primarily of the bargain purchase gain of $5,721,596 from the acquisition of Yulong Cattle, interest income of $652,992 charged on the outstanding notes receivable from the farmers, a governmental subsidy of $110,320, gains on disposal of biological properties of $254,934 when we changed our revenue stream, and other non-operating income of $47,013.
Net Income
Xinhua Cattle and Yulong Cattle are entitled to a tax exemption for the full Enterprise Income Tax in China due to a government tax preferential policy for the dairy farming industry. Zhongxian Information is subject to an Enterprise Income Tax of 25% and files its own tax returns. The provision for income taxes was $7,392,914 and $6,064,917 for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, primarily representing the enterprise income tax on the income of Zhongxian Information. Net income before noncontrolling interests was $21,853,516 and $17,554,833 for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, which represented an increase in $4,298,683 or 24%. As we own 99% of Xinhua Cattle’s shares, net income attributed to the minority interest shareholder was $213,796 and $145,750 for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Our net income attributable to the common stockholders of the Company was $21,639,720 representing $0.41 per share and $17,409,083 representing $0.37 per share for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Our local currency, Renminbi, is our functional currency. All asset and liability accounts have been translated using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Equity accounts have been translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. Statements of income and other comprehensive income amounts have been translated using the average exchange rate for the periods presented. Adjustments resulting from the translation of our consolidated financial statements are recorded as other comprehensive income (loss). Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred. For the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, foreign currency translation adjustments of $1,269,350 and $570,593 respectively, have been reported as other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, we had no bank debt but amounts owed to shareholders of $385,156 and $241,612, respectively. The amounts due to our stockholders was principally for the professional fees incurred for being a reporting company in the United States from our stockholders’ personal bank accounts because of the restriction of official bank transfers abroad by the Bank of China. At the same time, we had $25,147,474 and $16,941,737 in cash at June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012 as well as net working capital of $32,446,360 and $23,384,004, respectively.
Operating activities
During the year ended June 30, 2013, our operating activities provided $12,417,520 in net cash, compared to $15,433,905 during the year ended June 30, 2012. The net cash provided in the year ended June 30, 2013 was much lower than our net income primarily due to the increase in the prepaid expenses of $18,018,791 for the land lease only partially offset by the increase in deferred income tax liabilities of $7,392,914.
Investing activities
During the year ended June 30, 2013, our investing activities provided a cash outflow of $5,395,118 compared with a cash outflow of $4,506,419 for the year ended June 30, 2012. The food costs and feeding expenses for immature biological properties used cash of $7,136,365 and $7,318,067 for the year ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Conversely, we received cash of $1,800,238 and $1,560,880 during the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, from collection of notes receivable from the disposal of biological properties in 2011. For the year ended June 30, 2012, we also received $1,275,030 in cash from our disposal of biological properties.
Financing activities
Our financing activities mainly included proceeds from shareholders and repayment to shareholders. For the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we received from shareholders of $173,794 and $485,567, respectively. For the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we repaid of $37,651 and $477,597 to our shareholders, respectively.
Over the long term, our expectation is that we will utilize our capital resources as well as any additional investments that we secure in order to expand our operating activities. At the present time, however, we are able to operate profitably without any significant additional investment. Moreover, our observation of the equity markets indicates that we would be unlikely to obtain financing; or if available on favorable terms at this time. Accordingly, our near term plan is to continue the program that we initiated during the past year and utilize the resources available to us.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Basis of Accounting and Presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2013 and for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s primary sources of revenues are derived from (a) sale of fresh milk to Chinese manufacturing and distribution companies of dairy products and (b) commissions from local farmers on their monthly milk sales. The Company’s revenue recognition policies comply with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104. Revenues from the sale of milk are recognized when the milk is delivered and the title is transferred, the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, the price is fixed and determinable and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured.
Milk sales revenue is recognized when the title to the goods has been passed to our customers, which is the date when the goods are delivered to designated locations and accepted by the customers and the previously discussed requirements are met. Fresh milk is delivered to our customers on a daily basis. The customers’ acceptance occurs upon inspection of quality and measurement of quantity at the time of delivery. The Company does not provide the customer with the right of return. Sales commission revenue is recognized on a monthly basis based on monthly sales reports received from the dairy companies.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
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 or results of operations.

(“Zhongxian Information”). Mr. Zhengxin holds a 62% equity interest in Zhongxian Information and Mr. Youliang holds a 38% equity interest in Zhongxian Information. Pursuant to a VIE agreement signed by Mr. Zhengxin and Mr. Youliang, Jiasheng Consulting now controls all management responsibilities of Zhongxian Information. The contractual arrangements are comprised of a series of agreements, including a shareholder voting rights proxy agreement, exclusive consulting and service agreement, exclusive call option agreement and equity pledge agreement, through which Jiasheng Consulting has the right to provide exclusive and complete business support and technical and consulting services to Zhongxian Information for an annual fee in the amount of Zhongxian Information’s yearly net profits after tax. Additionally, Zhongxian Information’s stockholders have pledged their rights, titles and equity interest in Zhongxian Information as security for the collection of consulting and service fees provided through an Equity Pledge Agreement.

ORGANIZATION (CONTINUED)
In order to further reinforce Jiasheng Consulting’s rights to control and operate Zhongxian Information, the stockholders of Zhongxian Information have granted Jiasheng Consulting the exclusive right and option to acquire all of their equity interests in Zhongxian Information through an Exclusive Option Agreement.
At the closing of the Share Exchange, Trade Link cancelled 5,500,000 shares of its common stock previously held by its previous principal stockholders.
The share exchange transaction constituted a reverse takeover transaction. Accordingly, reverse takeover accounting was adopted for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. As a result, the consolidated financial statements are issued under the name of China Modern Agricultural Information, Inc. (the legal acquirer), but are a continuation of the consolidated financial statements of Value Development and its subsidiaries (the accounting acquirer). Before and after the Share Exchange, Value Development, Value Development Group Limited (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Value Development), Jiasheng Consulting, and Zhongxian Information and their 99% owned subsidiary, Heilongjiang Xinhua Cattle Industry Co., Ltd. (“Xinhua Cattle”) are under common control. Therefore, the reorganization was effectively a legal recapitalization accounted for as transactions between entities under common control at the carry over basis, in a manner similar to pooling-of-interests accounting.
Zhongxian Information and Xinhua Cattle are engaged in the acquisition, breeding and rearing of dairy cows, and production and sale of fresh milk to manufacturing and distribution companies. Zhongxian Information was established in China in January 2005 with registered capital of 10 million Renminbi (“RMB”). In February 2006, it acquired 99% of the registered capital of Xinhua Cattle, which was established in China in December 2005 with registered capital of three million RMB. Xinhua Cattle had no significant activities and its cost approximated the fair value at the date of acquisition.
On November 23, 2011, Zhongxian Information acquired 100% of the equity interest of Yulong Cattle Industry Co., Ltd. (“Yulong Cattle”) from Yulong Cattle’s original stockholders for consideration of 9,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and cash consideration of $4,396,000.
Yulong Cattle was a privately held company in China engaged in the acquisition, breeding and rearing of dairy cows, and production and sale of fresh milk to manufacturing and distribution companies.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Change of Reporting Entity and Basis of Accounting and Presentation
The reverse acquisition described in Note 1 was treated as recapitalization of the Company. As such, China Modern Agricultural Information, Inc. is the continuing entity for financial reporting purposes. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Manual Item 2.6.5.4 “Reverse Acquisitions” requires that “in a reverse acquisition, the historical shareholder’s equity of the accounting acquirer prior to the merger is retroactively reclassified (a recapitalization) for the equivalent number of shares received in the merger after giving effect to any difference in par value of the registrant’s and the accounting acquirer’s stock by an adjustment to additional paid-in capital.” Therefore, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared as if Value Development and its subsidiaries had always been the reporting company and then on the reverse acquisition date, had changed its name and reorganized its equity.
Pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”), the Company is required to include in its consolidated financial statements the financial statements of its VIE’s. ASC 810 requires a VIE to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss for the VIE or is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE’s residual returns. VIEs are those entities in which a company, through contractual arrangements, bears the risk of, and enjoys the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entity, and therefore the company is the primary beneficiary of the entity.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include the financial statements of China Modern Agricultural Information, Inc. and its subsidiaries, Value Development, Value Development Group Limited, Jiasheng Consulting, and its VIE, Zhongxian Information and Zhongxian Information’s 99% owned subsidiary, Xinhua Cattle and its 100% owned subsidiary, Yulong Cattle from November 23, 2011, the date of acquisition. The Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Change of Reporting Entity and Basis of Accounting and Presentation (Continued)
Zhongxian Information and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Chinese VIE”) have no assets that are collateralized for or restricted solely to settle their obligations. The creditors of the Chinese VIE and its subsidiaries do not have recourse to the Company’s general credit. Because Value Development, Value Development Group Limited, Jiasheng Consulting are established for the sole purpose of holding ownership interest and do not have any operations, the financial statement amounts and balances are those of the Chinese VIE and its subsidiaries.
Under ASC 810, an enterprise has a controlling financial interest in a VIE, and must consolidate that VIE, if the enterprise has both of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance; and (b) the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive benefits, that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company’s determination of whether it has this power is not affected by the existence of kick-out rights or participating rights, unless a single enterprise, including its related parties and de facto agents, has the unilateral ability to exercise those rights.
The Chinese VIE’s actual stockholders do not hold any kick-out rights that will affect the consolidation determination.

Foreign Currency Translations
All Company assets are located in People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). The functional currency for the majority of the Company’s operations is the RMB. The Company uses the United States dollar (“US Dollar” or “US$” or “$”) for financial reporting purposes. The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been translated into US dollars in accordance with FASB ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters.” All asset and liability accounts have been translated using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Equity accounts have been translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. Statements of income and other comprehensive income amounts have been translated using the average exchange rate for the periods presented. Adjustments resulting from the translation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements are recorded as other comprehensive income (loss) (“OCI”).
The exchange rates used to translate amounts in RMB into US dollars for preparing the consolidated financial statements are as follows:
Foreign currency translation adjustments of $1,268,350 and $570,593 for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, have been reported as other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income of the Company consists entirely of foreign currency translation adjustments. Pursuant to ASC 740-30-25-17, “Exceptions to Comprehensive Recognition of Deferred Income Taxes,” the Company does not recognize deferred U.S. taxes related to the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries and, accordingly, recognizes no income tax expense or benefit from foreign currency translation adjustments.

Foreign Currency Translations (Continued)
Although government regulations now allow convertibility of the RMB for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain. Hence, such translations should not be construed as representations that the RMB could be converted into US dollars at that rate or any other rate.
The value of RMB against the US dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. Any significant revaluation of the RMB could materially affect the Company’s consolidated financial condition in terms of US dollar reporting.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s primary sources of revenues are derived from (a) sale of fresh milk to Chinese manufacturing and distribution companies of dairy products and (b) commissions from local farmers on their monthly milk sales. The Company’s revenue recognition policies comply with FASB ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition.” Revenues from sales of goods are recognized when the goods are delivered and the title is transferred, the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, the price is fixed and determinable and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured.
Milk sales revenue is recognized when the title to the goods has been passed to the customers, which is the date when the goods are delivered to designated locations and accepted by the customers and the previously discussed requirements are met. Fresh milk is delivered to its customers on a daily basis. The customers’ acceptance occurs upon inspection of quality and measurement of quantity at the time of delivery. The Company does not provide the customer with the right of return. Sales commission revenue is recognized on a monthly basis based on monthly sales reports received.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Vulnerability Due to Operations in PRC
The Company’s operations may be adversely affected by significant political, economic and social uncertainties in the PRC. Although the PRC government has been pursuing economic reform policies for more than twenty years, no assurance can be given that the PRC government will continue to pursue such policies or that such policies may not be significantly altered, especially in the event of a change in leadership, social or political disruption or unforeseen circumstances affecting the PRC’s political, economic and social conditions. There is also no guarantee that the PRC government’s pursuit of economic reforms will be consistent or effective.
The Company believes that Jiasheng Consulting’s contractual agreements with Zhongxian Information are in compliance with PRC law and are legally enforceable. The stockholders of Zhongxian Information are also the senior management of the Company and therefore the Company believes that they have no current interest in seeking to act contrary to the contractual arrangements. However, Zhongxian Information and its stockholders may fail to take certain actions required for the Company’s business or to follow the Company’s instructions despite their contractual obligations to do so. Furthermore, if Zhongxian Information or its stockholders do not act in the best interests of the Company under the contractual arrangements or any dispute relating to these contractual arrangements remains unresolved, the Company will have to enforce its rights under these contractual arrangements through the operations of PRC law and courts and therefore will be subject to uncertainties in the PRC legal system. All of these contractual arrangements are governed by PRC law and provide for the resolution of disputes through arbitration in the PRC. Accordingly, these contracts would be interpreted in accordance with PRC law and any disputes would be resolved in accordance with PRC legal procedures. As a result, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could limit the Company’s ability to enforce these contractual arrangements, which could make it difficult to exert effective control over Zhongxian Information, and its ability to conduct the Company’s business may be adversely affected.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based upon whether the inputs to those valuation techniques reflect assumptions other market participants would use based upon market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs). In accordance with ASC 820, the following summarizes the fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 Inputs -
Unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities in an active market that the Company has the ability to access.
Level 2 Inputs -
Inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 Inputs -
Inputs based on valuation techniques that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurements.
ASC 820 requires the use of observable market data, when available, in making fair value measurements. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Continued)
The Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented at fair value on a recurring basis. Carrying values of non-derivative financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, interest receivable, accrued expenses and other payables, and stockholder loans, approximated their fair values due to the short maturity of these financial instruments. The carrying value of notes receivable is valued at their net realizable value which approximates the fair value. There were no changes in methods or assumptions during the years presented.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are charged to operations when incurred. No advertising costs were incurred for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all demand and time deposits and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable is stated at cost, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, if required. Receivables outstanding longer than the payment terms are considered past due. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses when necessary resulting from the failure of customers to make required payments. The Company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes allowances where there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, the customer’s payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. The Company considers all accounts receivable at June 30, 2013 and 2012, to be fully collectible and, therefore, did not provide for an allowance for doubtful accounts. For the years presented, the Company did not write off any accounts receivable as bad debts.

Inventories
Inventories, comprised principally of livestock feed, are valued at the lower of cost or market value. The value of inventories is determined using the weighted average cost method.
The Company estimates an inventory allowance for excessive or unusable inventories. Inventory amounts are reported net of such allowances, if any. There was no allowance for excessive or unusable inventories as of June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Prepaid Expenses
Prepaid expenses as of June 30, 2013 and 2012 mainly represent the prepayments of approximately $320,000 and $310,000 for consulting services, respectively.
Prepaid Land Lease
Prepaid land lease represents the unamortized prepayment of $22,406,066 for grassland rental (see Note 8).
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes the price paid to acquire or construct the asset, including capitalized interest during the construction period, and any expenditures that substantially increase the assets value or extend the useful life of an existing asset. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Major repairs and betterments that significantly extend original useful lives or improve productivity are capitalized and depreciated over the periods benefited. Maintenance and repairs are generally expensed as incurred.

Property, Plant and Equipment (Continued)
The estimated useful lives for property, plant and equipment categories are as follows:
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The Company utilizes FASB ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment” (“ASC 360”), which addresses the financial accounting and reporting for the recognition and measurement of impairment losses for long-lived assets. In accordance with ASC 360, long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company may recognize an impairment of a long-lived asset in the event the net book value of such asset exceeds the future undiscounted cash flows attributable to the asset. No impairment of long-lived assets was recognized for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Biological Assets
Biological assets consist of dairy cows for milking purposes and breeding.
Immature Biological Assets
Immature biological assets are recorded at cost, including acquisition costs, transportation costs, insurance expenses, and feeding costs, incurred in raising the cows. Once the cow is able to produce milk, the cost of the immature biological asset is transferred to mature biological assets using the weighted average cost method.

Mature Biological Assets
Mature biological assets are recorded at their original purchase price or weighted average immature biological assets transfer cost. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of eight years using the straight-line method. The estimated residual value is 10%. Feeding and management costs incurred on mature biological assets are included as cost of goods sold. When biological assets, including male cows, are retired or otherwise disposed of in the normal course of business, the cost and accumulated depreciation will be removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss will be included in the results of operations for the respective period. For the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, losses of $232,739 and $108,792, respectively, are included in the cost of goods sold in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income.
During the year ended June 30, 2013, the Company sold an insignificant amount of its cows (immature biological assets). The related loss of $1,965 is included in other non-operating income in the accompanying statements of income and other comprehensive income. $83,278 of total sales price was paid in full at the time of sale. During the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company sold 9,622 (mature biological assets) and 816 (immature biological assets) of its cows. The related gain of $254,934 is included in other non-operating income in the accompanying statements of income and other comprehensive income. $1,275,030 of the $10,806,536 sales price was paid in full at the time of sale. The remaining sales price is included in notes receivable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets (see Note 7).

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Biological Assets (Continued)
The Company reviews the carrying value of its biological assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events and circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from their use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss will be recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current health status and production capacity. There were no impairment losses recorded during the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Government Subsidies
Government subsidies are primarily comprised of financial support from the local government to Yulong Cattle for modern livestock production development. The subsidy was for purchase of high quality baby cows and construction of cowhouses used in large-scale livestock farms. Government subsidies amounted to $191,677 and $110,320 for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), which requires the recognition of deferred income taxes for differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes. The differences relate principally to the undistributed earnings of the Company’s subsidiary under PRC law. Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax consequence for those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes are also recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Zhongxian Information is subject to the tax rate of 25% for the earnings when distributed by Xinhua Cattle and Yulong Cattle. At June 30, 2013 and 2012, undistributed earnings allocated to Zhongxian Information were approximately $79,800,000 and $48,500,000, respectively.

Income Taxes (Continued)
ASC 740 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under ASC 740, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position.
The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position would be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, and accounting for interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions. As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company does not have a liability for any uncertain tax positions.
The income tax laws of various jurisdictions in which the Company and its subsidiaries operate are summarized as follows:
United States
The Company is subject to United States tax at graduated rates from 15% to 35%. No provision for income tax in the United States has been made as the Company had no U.S. taxable income for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
BVI
Value Development is incorporated in the BVI and is governed by the income tax laws of the BVI. According to current BVI income tax law, the applicable income tax rate for the Company is 0%.
Hong Kong
Value Development Group Limited is incorporated in Hong Kong. Pursuant to the income tax laws of Hong Kong, the Company is not subject to tax on non-Hong Kong source income.

PRC
Xinhua Cattle and Yulong Cattle are entitled to a tax exemption for the full Enterprise Income Tax in China due to a government tax preferential policy for the dairy farming industry. Zhongxian Information is subject to an Enterprise Income Tax at 25% and files its own tax returns.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per common share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share” (“ASC 260”) and SEC SAB 98. Under the provisions of ASC 260 and SAB 98, basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the amount available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income per common share is computed by dividing the amount available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the effect of any dilutive shares outstanding during the period. Accordingly, the number of weighted average shares outstanding as well as the amount of net income per share are presented for basic and diluted per share calculations for all periods reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income. There were no dilutive shares outstanding during the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Statutory Reserve Fund
Pursuant to corporate law of the PRC, the Company’s Chinese VIE and its subsidiaries are required to transfer 10% of their net income, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, to a statutory reserve fund until such reserve balance reaches 50% of the its registered capital. The statutory reserve fund is non-distributable other than during liquidation and can be used to fund previous years’ losses, if any, and may be utilized for business expansion or used to increase registered capital, provided that the remaining reserve balance after such use is not less than 25% of the registered capital. As of June 30, 2013, the applicable statutory reserve funds are fully funded.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In October 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-04, “Technical Corrections and Improvements.” ASU 2012-04 contains amendments to clarify the ASC, correct unintended application of guidance, or make minor improvements to the ASC that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost to most entities. Additionally, the amendments are intended to make the ASC easier to understand and the fair value measurement guidance easier to apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing needed clarifications. The amendments that do not have transition guidance were effective upon issuance. The amendments that are subject to the transition guidance will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this pronouncement will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” ASU 2013-02 requires an entity to report the effect of significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required to be reclassified in its entirety to net income. For other amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income in the same reporting period, an entity is required to cross-reference other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts. The amendments do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income in financial statements. For public entities, the amendments are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this pronouncement will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (CONTINUED)
On March 5, 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05 to provide guidance for whether to release cumulative translation adjustments (“CTA”) upon certain derecognition events. The update was issued to resolve the diversity in practice about whether Subtopic ASC 810-10, “Consolidation-Overall,” or ASC 830-30, “Foreign Currency Matters-Translation of Financial Statements,” applies to such transactions. ASU 2013-05 is effective prospectively for all entities with derecognition events after the effective date. For public entities, the guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 31, 2013. ASC 830-30 applies when an entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a business within a foreign entity. Consequently, the CTA is released into net income only if the transaction results in complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets resided. Otherwise, no portion of the CTA is released. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

The nonrecurring bargain purchase gain of $5,721,596 was included in other income in the consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income for the year ended June 30, 2012. In accordance with ASC 805, the Company had two independent valuations of Yulong Cattle to verify that the bargain purchase gain was reasonable. The bargain purchase gain arose mainly due to a higher share market price in July 2011 when the letter of intent was signed.

NOTES RECEIVABLE
Notes receivable are related to the sales of cows (mature biological assets) to local farmers. Xinhua Cattle sold 3,787, 5,635, and 2,000 of its cows to local farmers in September 2011, August 2011, and June 2011, respectively. The cost and accumulated depreciation were removed from the accounts and a gain was recognized.
According to the agreements signed with the local farmers in June 2011, the sales price will be collected over five years, with a minimum payment of 20% of the sales price to be paid per year. The related receivable is recorded at its present value at a discount rate of 12%, which is commensurate with interest rates for notes with similar risk. The Company also entered into agreements with these local farmers for a 30% commission of their monthly milk sales generated by the cows sold in exchange for the Company’s assistance in arranging for the sale of the milk. Pursuant to the agreements signed in August and September 2011, the sales price will be collected in monthly installments plus interest at 7% on any outstanding balance, over the remaining useful lives of the cows, which range from three to eight years. Local farmers are required to pay 30% of monthly milk sales generated from the cows sold to the farmers. The required 30% monthly payments are to be applied first to the monthly installment of principal and interest for the cows sold and the balance as commission income for the Company’s assistance in arranging for the sale of the milk. The 30% monthly payments will continue over the entire remaining life of the cows sold. While the 30% rate and the amount applied to monthly installments for the purchase price of the cows remain the same, the amount of sales commission will vary depending on total monthly milk sales and the progress of repayments towards the purchase price. During the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company received principal and interest payments of $1,939,498 and $1,728,852, respectively. Commission income for the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, was $10,370,207 and $7,887,260, respectively, under these two agreements.
The receivable related to the sales of cows is included in notes receivable in the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2013 and 2012. The related commission receivable of $1,022,905 and $1,074,507 at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, is included in accounts receivable in the consolidated balance sheets.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, and that information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and financial officers as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2013, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, the President and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be included in our periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms due to a material weakness related to a lack of accounting personnel with sufficient experience in maintaining books and records and preparing financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control system was designed to, in general, provide reasonable assurance to our management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements, but because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2013. The framework used by management in making that assessment was the criteria set forth in the document entitled “Internal Control - Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment, our management has determined that as of June 30, 2013, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to a material weakness related to a lack of accounting personnel with sufficient experience in maintaining books and records and preparing financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
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 the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fourth fiscal quarter of the year ended June 30, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Involvement in Legal Proceedings
To the best of our knowledge, our director or executive officer has not, during the past ten years:
·
been convicted in a criminal proceeding or been subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);
·
had any bankruptcy petition filed by or against the business or property of the person, or of any partnership, corporation or business association of which he was a general partner or executive officer, either at the time of the bankruptcy filing or within two years prior to that time;

·
been found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated;

Board Committees

Our Board of Directors performs the principal functions of an Audit Committee. We currently do not have an audit committee financial expert on our Board of Directors. We believe that an audit committee financial expert is not required because the cost of hiring an audit committee financial expert to act as one of our directors and to be a member of an Audit Committee outweighs the benefits of having an audit committee financial expert at this time.
