CHINA PHARMA HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 AND 2023 (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Nature of Operations – China Pharma Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“China Pharma”), owns 100% of Onny Investment Limited (“Onny”), a British Virgin Islands corporation, which owns 100% of Hainan Helpson Medical & Biotechnology Co., Ltd (“Helpson”), a company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). China Pharma Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries are referred to herein as the Company.
Onny acquired 100% of the ownership in Helpson on May 25, 2005, by entering into an Equity Transfer Agreement with Helpson’s three former shareholders. The transaction was approved by the Commercial Bureau of Hainan Province on June 12, 2005 and Helpson received the Certificate of Approval for Establishment of Enterprises with Foreign Investment in the PRC on the same day. Helpson received its business license evidencing its Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprise (“WFOE”) status on June 21, 2005.
Helpson is principally engaged in the development, manufacture and marketing of pharmaceutical products for human use in connection with a variety of high-incidence and high-mortality diseases and medical conditions prevalent in the PRC. All of its operations are conducted in the PRC, where its manufacturing facilities are located. Helpson manufactures pharmaceutical products in the form of dry powder injectables, liquid injectables, tablets, capsules, and cephalosporin oral solutions. The majority of its pharmaceutical products are sold on a prescription basis and all have been approved for at least one or more therapeutic indications by the National Medical Products Administration (the “NMPA”, formerly China Food and Drug Administration, or CFDA) based upon demonstrated safety and efficacy.
Liquidity and Going Concern
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $0.7 million, an accumulated deficit of $41.7 million and the Company’s current liabilities exceeded current assets by $0.7 million. In addition, the Company had incurred net losses of $2.4 million and had negative cash flows from operating activities of $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The Company’s Chairperson, Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer had advanced an aggregate of $1,140,775 as of June 30, 2024 to provide working capital and enabled the Company to make the required payments related to its former construction loan facility. The Company anticipates operating losses to continue for the foreseeable future due to, among other things, costs related to the production of its existing products, debt service costs and selling and administrative costs. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. To alleviate the conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, management plans to enhance the sales model of advance payment, and further strengthen its collection of accounts receivable. Further, the Company is currently exploring strategic alternatives to accelerate the launch of nutrition products. In addition, management believes that the Company’s existing property, plant and equipment can serve as collateral to support additional bank loans. While the current plans will allow the Company to fund its operations in the next twelve months, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve its future strategic alternatives raising substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
Pursuant to the requirements of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 205-40, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern management must evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. This evaluation initially does not take into consideration the potential mitigating effect of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the financial statements are issued. When substantial doubt exists under this methodology, management evaluates whether the mitigating effect of its plans sufficiently alleviates substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The mitigating effect of management’s plans, however, is only considered if both (1) it is probable that the plans will be effectively implemented within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued, and (2) it is probable that the plans, when implemented, will mitigate the relevant conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.
Under ASC 205-40, the strategic alternatives being pursued by the Company cannot be considered probable at this time because none of the Company’s current plans have been finalized at the time of the issuance of these financial statements and the implementation of any such plan is not probable of being effectively implemented as none of the plans are entirely within the Company’s control. Accordingly, substantial doubt is deemed to exist about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date these financial statements are issued.
CHINA PHARMA HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 AND 2023 (UNAUDITED)
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of the uncertainties described above.
Reverse Stock Split – Effective March 6, 2024, China Pharma implemented a 1-for -5 reverse stock split as more fully discussed in Note 13. All share and per share disclosures have been retroactively restated to reflect the impact of the reverse stock split.
Consolidation and Basis of Presentation – The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are expressed in United States dollars. The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.
Helpson’s functional currency is the Chinese Renminbi. Helpson’s revenue and expenses are translated into United States dollars at the average exchange rate for the period. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate as of the end of the reporting period. Gains or losses from translating Helpson’s financial statements are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a component of stockholders’ equity. Gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity that is party to the transaction are included in the results of operations.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. All significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated on consolidation. However, the results of operations included in such financial statements may not necessary be indicative of annual results. Such financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 1, 2024 (“2023 Annual Report”).
Accounting Estimates – The methodology used to prepare the Company’s financial statements is in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires the management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. Therefore, actual results could differ from those estimates.
The Company uses the same accounting policies in preparing its quarterly and annual financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted.
Loss Per Share – Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding, excluding unvested stock. Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares, including unvested stock, had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.
The potentially dilutive common shares related to the convertible, redeemable note payable of 2,003,001 and 2,155,964 at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 as discussed in Note 9, respectively, and the option to purchase 13,300 shares of common stock at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share for all periods presented because the effect is anti-dilutive due to net losses of the Company.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance to enhance transparency of income tax disclosures. On an annual basis, the new guidance requires a public entity to disclose: (1) specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (2) additional information for reconciling items that are equal to or greater than 5% of the amount computed by multiplying income (or loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (or benefit) by the applicable statutory income tax rate, (3) income taxes paid (net of refunds received) disaggregated by federal (national), state, and foreign taxes, with foreign taxes disaggregated by individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid is equal to or greater than 5% of total income taxes paid, (4) income (or loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (or benefit) disaggregated between domestic and foreign, and (5) income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations disaggregated between federal (national), state and foreign. The guidance is effective for fiscal year 2025 annual reporting, with early adoption permitted, to be applied on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted. We do not expect the adoption of this accounting standard to have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements but will require certain additional disclosures.
From time to time, the FASB or other standards setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB ASC are communicated through issuance of ASUs. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the recently issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted in the future, is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

(“Bonier”), the Technology Transfer Agreement with Tao Liu, and the Technology Transfer Agreement with Lihua Li, both are discussed below. No costs were reclassified from advances to intangible assets during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Approved medical formulas are amortized from the date NMPA approval is obtained over their individually identifiable estimated useful life, which range from ten to thirteen years. It is at least reasonably possible that a change in the estimated useful lives of the medical formulas could occur in the near term due to changes in the demand for the drugs and medicines produced from these medical formulas. Amortization expense relating to intangible assets was $104,922 and $55,161 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $202,069 and $109,024 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which was included in the general and administrative expenses. Medical formulas typically do not have a residual value at the end of their amortization period.
On February 2, 2024, Helpson entered into a Technology Transfer Agreement (the “Lihua Li Agreement”) with Lihua Li (“Transferor Li”). Transferor Li owns an invention patent of a pharmaceutical composition for treatment of psoriasis (the “Li Invention Patent”). Pursuant to the Lihua Li Agreement, Transferor Li will transfer the ownership of the Li Invention Patent to Helpson. Transferor Li or his designated third party shall provide relevant technical services in Haikou, which include but are not limited to product research and development, writing of registration materials, registration application.
The aggregate transfer price as contemplated by the Agreement is $1.365 million which was paid to the Transferor and his two designees upon the issuance of 3,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company at $0.455 per share based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock as of the closing date. The Company recorded the amount as intangible assets on the accompanying balance sheet as of the closing date. The value of the intangible asset will be amortized over its remaining useful life of approximately 20 years. During the ten years after the product launches to the market, if and only if the product generates profit, Helpson shall pay 10% of the net profit of the sales in cash on an annual basis to Transferor Li.
On December 15, 2023, the Company entered into a Technology Transfer Agreement (the “Tao Liu Agreement”) with Tao Liu (“Transferor Liu”). Transferor Liu owns an invention patent of a drug combination for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (the “Liu Invention Patent”). Pursuant to the Tao Liu Agreement, Transferor Liu will transfer the ownership of the Liu Invention Patent to Helpson. Transferor Liu or his designated third party shall provide relevant technical services in Haikou, which include but are not limited to product research and development, writing of registration materials, registration application and other technical services.
During the ten years after the product launches to the market, if and only if the product generates profit, Helpson shall pay 15% of the net profit of the sales in cash on an annual basis to Transferor Liu.
On November 28, 2022, the Company entered into a Technology Transfer Contract with Bonier. Bonier owns the know-how of a technical invention and creation of an ophthalmic oxygen enriched atomization therapeutic instrument, which has obtained a utility model patent (the “Utility Model Patent”) and applied for an invention patent (the “Bonier Invention Patent”) at the same time. Pursuant to the Bonier Agreement, Bonier will transfer the ownership of the Utility Model Patent of the technical invention and the Bonier Invention Patent application right of the invention to Helpson. Bonier or its designated third party shall provide relevant technical services in Haikou, which include but are not limited to product research and development, writing of registration materials, registration application and other technical services, with a term of ten years.

The Company will pay a service fee of 15% of the net profit of the corresponding product sales revenue, which will be paid in cash annually after it launches to the market, contingent on the successful authorization of the above mentioned Bonier Invention Patent.
There were no service fees or profit payments paid related to the above three agreements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
The Company evaluates each approved medical formula for impairment at the date of NMPA approval, when indications of impairment are present and also at the date of each financial statement. The Company’s evaluation is based on an estimated undiscounted net cash flow model, which considers currently available market data for the related drug and the Company’s estimated market share. If the carrying value of the medical formula exceeds the estimated future net cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the medical formula, which is determined by the estimated discounted future net cash flows. No impairment loss was recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

NOTE 10 – LEASES
The Company has leases for certain office and production facilities in the PRC which are classified as operating leases. The leases contain payment terms for fixed amounts. Options to extend are recognized as part of the lease liabilities and recognized as right of use assets when management estimates to renew the lease. There are no residual value guarantees, no variable lease payments, and no restrictions or covenants imposed by leases. The discount rate used in measuring the lease liabilities and right of use assets was determined by reviewing the Company’s incremental borrowing rate at the initial measurement date. For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, operating lease cost was $19,228 and $17,848, respectively and cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities for operating cash flows from operating leases was $19,947 and $18,744, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, operating lease cost was $38,629 and $37,635, respectively and cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities for operating cash flows from operating leases was $40,074 and $39,525, respectively. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company reported right of use assets of $77,259 and $116,610, respectively and lease liabilities of $78,628 and $117,637, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, its operating leases had a weighted average remaining lease term of 1.0 years and a weighted average discount rate of 3.55%.
Minimum lease payments for the Company’s operating lease liabilities were as follows for the twelve month period ended June 30:
2025 | $ | 80,148 | ||
Total undiscounted cash flows | 80,148 | |||

The Company has leases with terms less than one year for certain provincial sales offices that are not material.
NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax laws or rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Liabilities are established for uncertain tax positions expected to be taken in income tax returns when such positions are judged to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold based on the technical merits of the positions. Estimated interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are included as a component of other expenses. Through December 31, 2023, the Company has not identified any uncertain tax positions that it has taken. U.S. income tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2019 through December 31, 2023 and the Chinese income tax return for the year ended December 31, 2023 are open for possible examination.
Under the current tax law in the PRC, the Company is and will be subject to the enterprise income tax rate of 25%.
There was no provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively due to continued net losses of the Company.
CHINA PHARMA HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 AND 2023 (UNAUDITED)
As of June 30, 2024, Helpson had net operating loss carryforwards for PRC tax purposes of approximately $22.6 million which are available to offset any future taxable income through 2029. Approximately $2.7 million of these carryforwards will expire in December 2024. The Company also has net operating losses for United States federal income tax purposes of approximately $10.3 million of which $5.1 million is available to offset future taxable income, if any, through 2040, and $5.2 million are available for carryforward indefinitely subject to a limitation of 80% of taxable income for each tax year.
U.S. federal tax legislation, commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “U.S. Tax Reform”), was signed into law on December 22, 2017. The U.S. Tax Reform significantly modified the U.S. Internal Revenue Code by, among other things, reducing the statutory U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017; limiting and/or eliminating many business deductions; migrating the U.S. to a territorial tax system with a one-time transition tax on a mandatory deemed repatriation of previously deferred foreign earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries; subject to certain limitations, generally eliminating U.S. corporate income tax on dividends from foreign subsidiaries; and providing for new taxes on certain foreign earnings.
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those differences become deductible or tax loss carry forwards are utilized. Management considers projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon an assessment of the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods on which the deferred tax assets are deductible or can be utilized, management believes it is not likely for the Company to realize all benefits of the deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Therefore, the Company provided for a valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets of $21,992,061 and $21,531,017 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
The Company also incurred various other taxes, comprised primarily of business taxes, value-added taxes, urban construction taxes, education surcharges and others. Any unpaid amounts are reflected on the balance sheets as accrued taxes payable.
NOTE 12 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. To measure fair value, a hierarchy has been established which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. This hierarchy uses three levels of inputs to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities as follows: Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in less active markets, or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; and Level 3 – Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity for financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
The Company uses fair value to measure the value of the banker’s acceptance notes it holds at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The banker’s acceptance notes are recorded at cost which approximates fair value. The Company held the following assets and liabilities recorded at fair value:

Nature of Operations
Economic environment - Substantially all of the Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC, and therefore the Company is subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies operating in the United States of America. These risks include, among others, the political, economic and legal environments and fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rate. The Company’s results from operations may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and 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. The unfavorable changes in global macroeconomic factors may also adversely affect the Company’s operations.
In addition, all of the Company’s revenue is denominated in the PRC’s currency of Renminbi (RMB), which must be converted into other currencies before remittance out of the PRC. Both the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of foreign currencies abroad require approval of the PRC government.

Business Overview & Recent Developments
China Pharma Holding Inc. (“China Pharma”) is not a Chinese operating company but a Nevada holding company. All of our operations are conducted in the PRC through Hainan Helpson Medical & Biotechnology Co., Ltd (“Helpson”), our wholly owned subsidiary incorporated under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), where the manufacturing facilities are located. Helpson is principally engaged in the development, manufacture and marketing of pharmaceutical products for human use in connection with a variety of high-incidence and high-mortality diseases and medical conditions prevalent in the PRC. It manufactures pharmaceutical products in the form of dry powder injectables, liquid injectables, tablets, capsules, and cephalosporin oral solutions. The majority of its pharmaceutical products are sold on a prescription basis and all of them have been approved for at least one or more therapeutic indications by the National Medical Products Administration (the “NMPA”, formerly China Food and Drug Administration, or CFDA) based upon demonstrated safety and efficacy.
China’s consistency evaluation of generic drugs continues to proceed in 2024. Helpson has always taken the task of promoting the consistency evaluation as a top priority, and worked on them actively. However, for each drug’s consistency evaluation, due to the continuous dynamic changes of the detailed consistency evaluation policies, market trends, expected investments, and expected returns of investment (“ROI”), the whole industry, including Helpson, has been making slow progresses in terms of the consistency evaluation. One of the flagship products, Candesartan tablets, a hypertension product, has passed generic-drug-consistency-evaluation in early August 2023.
Helpson has taken a more cautious and flexible attitude towards initiating and progressing any project for existing products’ consistency evaluation to cope with the changing macro environment of drug sales in China. In 2018, relevant Chinese authorities decided to implement trial Centralized Procurement (“CP”) activities in 11 selected pilot cities (including 4 municipalities and 7 other cities), since then, nine rounds of CP activities have been carried out as of August 6, 2024, which significantly reduced the price of the drugs that won the bids. In addition, the consistency evaluation has been adopted as one of the qualification standards for participating in the CP activities. As a result, Helpson needs to balance between the market access brought by CP, the investment of financial resources and time to obtain the qualification of CP, and the sharp decline in the price of drugs included in CP before making decisions regarding CP for any products.
In addition, Helpson continues to explore the field of comprehensive healthcare. Comprehensive healthcare is a general concept proposed by the Chinese government according to the development of the times, social needs and changes in disease spectrum. According to the Outline of “Healthy China 2030” issued by Chinese government in October 2016, the total size of China’s health service industry is expected to reach RMB 16 trillion (approximately $2.5 trillion) by 2030. This industry focuses on people’s daily life, aging and diseases, pays attention to all kinds of risk factors and misunderstandings affecting health, calls for self-health management, and advocates the comprehensive care throughout the entire process of life. It covers all kinds of health-related information, products, and services, as well as actions taken by various organizations to meet the health needs. In response to this trend, Helpson launched Noni enzyme, a natural, Xeronine-rich antioxidant food supplement at the end of 2018. It also launched wash-free sanitizers and masks, in 2020, to address the market needs caused by COVID-19 in China. As Chinese government officially terminated its zero-case policy, now the responsibility to protect people from the impact of COVID-19 falls more to the citizens themselves, and masks and sanitizers have been popular since COVID-19. Helpson has sufficient production capacity for medical masks, surgical masks, KN95 masks, and N95 masks, which also meets the personal needs for protection against other respiratory infectious disease. Helpson’s N95 medical protective mask has received registration certificate at the end of 2022 and right now has been selling in the mainland China nationwide.
Helpson will continue to optimize its product structure and actively respond to the current health needs of human beings.
Results of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2024
Revenue
Revenue decreased by 16.4% to $0.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This decline was mainly due to an increasing number of drugs from other medicine providers being included in national CP, while Helpson’s peer products have not passed consistency evaluation. As a result, they are not qualified to participate in CP, the resulting sales has decreased.
Set forth below are our revenues by product category in millions (USD) for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023:

This decrease was mainly due to the decrease in sales of Omeprazole because of the implementation of CP.
Our “Other” product category sales decreased by $0.08 million to $0.03 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024 from $0.11 million for the same period in 2023, which was mainly due to the decrease in sales of Vitamin B6 for Injection that was caused by the implementation of CP.

This slight change in sales was caused by market volatility.

Cost of Revenue
For the three months ended June 30, 2024, our cost of revenue was $1.9 million, or 209.8% of total revenue, while cost of revenue was $1.2 million, or 113.4% of total revenue, for the same period in 2023. The increase in cost in this quarter was mainly because the increase in idle equipment costs due to reduced production, as well as the increased inventory impairments.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, we had a gross loss margin of 109.8% as compared to a gross loss margin of 13.4% during the same period in 2023. The increase in gross loss is triggered by the decrease in the revenue and increase in the cost of revenue as described above.
Selling Expenses
Our selling expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $0.11 million and $0.17 million, respectively. Selling expenses accounted for 12.0% of the total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to 15.5% during the same period in 2023. As a result of the adjustment of many policies of healthcare reformation, we had reduced the number of personnel and expenses to efficiently support our sales and the collection of accounts receivable.
General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses were $0.09 million and $0.11 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. It accounted for 9.9% and 10.2% of our total revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Research and Development Expenses
Our research and development expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $0.16 and $0.02 million, respectively. Research and development expenses accounted for 17.8% and 2.2% of our total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in research and development expenses were mainly due to our increased efforts in drug consistency evaluation.
Bad Debt Expenses
Our bad debt expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 were $8,476, as compared to $4,047 for the same period in 2023.
In general, our normal customer credit or payment terms are 180 days. This has not changed in recent years. Such relatively long credit term is due to the peculiar environment affecting the Chinese pharmaceutical market, as deferred payments by state-owned hospitals to local drug distributors are common, and their deferred payments will indirectly delay the payments from our customers to us. Due to the timeliness requirements of the NMPA for logistics of drug sales, Helpson, like most other pharmaceutical companies in China, sells substantially all the drugs to local drug distributors, certified by GSP (Good Supply Practice), the standard of products supply, which is a standard protocol to control the quality of the products during circulation. These GSP certified distributors then sell the drugs to state-owned hospitals. The GSP certified distributors’ payments to us are usually delayed as they will pay us after they receive payment from the state-owned hospitals. Therefore, as most of our customers are GSP certified distributors, we adopt a unified policy for bad debt allowance reserves for GMP’s customers who are typically GSP certified distributors. As is typical in the Chinese pharmaceutical market, there are no written contracts between the Company and any of its GSP certified distributors requesting the distributors to pay the Company’s account receivable upon their receipt of funds from the distributors’ customers, or state-owned hospitals. Nevertheless, the Company’s customers typically process the payment of the account receivable to the Company upon their receipt of payment from their customers, i.e., the state-owned hospitals, as a matter of implied consensus or industry standard. In the event the length of collection term is deviated from any of the past pattern of any particular customer, the Company will adjust its credit term.
The amount of accounts receivable that was past due (or the amount of accounts receivable that was more than 180 days old) was $0.06 million and $0.02 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
The following table illustrates our accounts receivable aging distribution in terms of percentage of total accounts receivable, respective gross accounts receivables as well as the allocated allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Total | 13,960,926 | 14,363,431 | 13,706,077 | 13,856,410 |
Our allowance for doubtful accounts as a percentage of accounts receivable was 98.2% and 96.5% as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
We conduct analysis and review on accounts receivables for customers on a specific, per-customer basis in the fourth fiscal quarter of each fiscal year. For customers (i) whose business license has been cancelled or expired; (ii) whose key business certificates such as GSP (Good Supply Practice) license have been invalid or revoked; (iii) who have no ability to continue operations, or (iv) who are encountering other issues that lead to accounts receivable unrecoverable, the receivable will be written-off as per the resolution of our Board of Directors.
Our bad debt allowance estimate practice is that we consider accounts receivable balances aged within 180 days current, except for any individual uncollectible account assessed by management. We account for the following respective percentage as bad debt allowance based on age of the accounts receivables: 10% of accounts receivable that is between 180 days and 365 days old, 70% of accounts receivable that is between 365 days and 720 days old, and 100% of accounts receivable that is greater than 720 days old.
We recognize bad debt expenses per actual write-offs as well as changes of allowance for doubtful accounts. To the extent that our current allowance for doubtful accounts is higher than that of the previous period, we recognize a bad debt expense for the difference during the current period, and when the current allowance is lower than that of the previous period, we recognize a bad debt credit for the difference. The allowance for doubtful account balances were $13.7 million and $13.8 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The changes in the allowances for doubtful accounts during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

Loss from Operations
Our operating loss for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $1.4 million, compared to an operating loss of $0.5 million during the same period in 2023. The increase in loss from operation is triggered by the decrease in the revenue and increase in the cost of revenue as described above.

Loss per basic and diluted common share were $0.09 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and $0.35 for the same period in 2023.
The number of basic and diluted weighted-average outstanding shares used to calculate loss per share were 16,124,241 and 1,689,985 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
Results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024
Revenue
Revenue decreased by 25.0% to $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This decline was mainly due to an increasing number of drugs from other medicine providers being included in national CP, while Helpson’s peer products have not passed consistency evaluation. As a result, they are not qualified to participate in CP, the resulting sales has decreased.
Set forth below are our revenues by product category in millions (USD) for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively:
Six Months Ended June 30, | Net | |||||||||||||||

The most significant revenue decrease in terms of dollar amount was our “Other” product category, which generated $0.11 million in sales revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $0.47 million in the same period a year ago, represented a decrease of $0.36 million that was mainly caused by the decrease in sales of Vitamin B6 for Injection as our such product is not yet eligible to participate in CP.
Sales of our “Digestive Diseases” was $0.08 million in sales revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $0.37 million in the same period a year ago, which represented a decrease of $0.29 million. This decrease was mainly due to sales decrease of Helpson’s Omeprazole products due to ineligibility to participate in CP.
Sales of “CNS Cerebral & Cardio Vascular” product category generated $0.70 million in sales revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $0.75 million in the same period a year ago, which represented a decrease of $0.05 million. This change was mainly due to market volatility.
Sales of our “Anti-Viral/ Infection & Respiratory” product category generated $1.40 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, and $1.47 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023. This change was mainly due to market volatility.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, revenue breakdown by product category remained similar to that of the same period in 2023. The “Anti-Viral/Infection & Respiratory” products category represented 61% and 48% of total revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The “CNS Cerebral & Cardio Vascular” category represented 30% and 25% of total revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The “Others” category represented 5% and 15% of revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. And the “Digestive Diseases” category represented 4% and 12% of total revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Cost of Revenue
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, our cost of revenue was $3.6 million, or 156.9% of total revenue, comparing to $3.0 million, or 99.0% of total revenue, in the same period in 2023. The increase in the proportion of cost to revenue in this quarter was mainly due to the increase in idle equipment costs due to reduced production, as well as the increased inventory impairments.
Gross Profit (Loss) and Gross Margin
Gross loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $1.31 million, compared to gross profit of $0.03 million in the same period in 2023. Our gross loss margin in the six months ended June 30, 2024 was 56.9% compared to a gross profit margin of 1.0% in the same period in 2023. The deterioration of gross margin in this period was mainly due to the increased cost.
Selling Expenses
Our selling expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $0.22 million and $0.31 million, respectively. Selling expenses accounted for 9.6% of the total revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to 10.3% in the same period in 2023.
General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $0.58 million, as compared to $0.53 million in the same period in 2023. Our general and administrative expenses accounted for 25.3% and 17.3% of our total revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Research and Development Expenses
Our research and development expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $0.20 million and $0.05 million, respectively. The increase in research and development costs is mainly due to drug consistency evaluation.
Bad Debt Expense (Reversal of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts)
Our bad debt expense was $6,410 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to reversal of allowance for doubtful accounts $5,989 for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
The changes in the allowances for doubtful accounts during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:

Loss from Operations
Our operating loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $2.31 million, compared to $0.85 million in the same period in 2023. The increase in loss from operation is triggered by the decrease in the revenue and increase in the cost of revenue as described above.
Net Interest Expense
Net interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $0.09 million, compared to $0.22 million for the same period in 2023.
Net Loss
Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $2.40 million, as compared to net loss of $1.07 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase of net loss was mainly a result of increased cost and expenses in this period.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, loss per basic and diluted common share was $0.16, compared to loss per basic and diluted common share of $0.65 for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
The number of basic and diluted weighted-average outstanding shares used to calculate loss per share was 14,727,410 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and 1,653,076 for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal source of liquidity is cash generated from operations and bank lines of credit. Currently the Company has not witnessed or expected to encounter any difficulties to refinance those lines of credit this year. As of June 30, 2024, the aggregated advance from our CEO was $1,140,775 for use in operations. Our cash and cash equivalents were $0.74 million, representing 5.2% of our total assets, as of June 30, 2024, as compared to $1.42 million, representing 8.6% of our total assets as of December 31, 2023. All of the $0.74 million of cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2024 are considered to be reinvested indefinitely in the Company’s Chinese subsidiary, Helpson and are not expected to be available for payment of dividends or for other payments to its parent company or to its shareholders.
The Company obtained various lines of credit in details described under Note 8 to its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report which is incorporated by reference herein.
China Pharma issued a convertible note to an institutional accredited investor as disclosed in Note 9 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report which is incorporated by reference herein.
Although the Company obtained additional lines of credit in three and six months ended June 30, 2023, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve its future strategic goals, including the launch of new products. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Although our Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer had advanced funds for working capital in 2023, there can be no assurances that this will continue in the future. We may seek additional debt or equity financing as necessary when we believe the market conditions are the most advantageous to us and/or require us to reduce certain discretionary spending, which could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve our business objectives. There can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.
Operating Activities
Net cash used by operating activities was $0.66 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $1.68 million in the same period in 2023.
As of June 30, 2024, our net accounts receivable was $0.25 million, compared to $0.50 million as of December 31, 2023.
Total inventory was $2.82 million and $3.73 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Investing Activities
There was $28,086 used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $60,465 provided by investing activities for the same period in 2023.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.01 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024; compared to net cash used in financing activities of $0.52 million for the same period in 2023.
According to relevant PRC laws, companies registered in the PRC, including our PRC subsidiary, Helpson, are required to allocate at least ten percent (10%) of their after-tax net income, as determined under the accounting standards and regulations in the PRC, to statutory surplus reserve accounts until the reserve account balances reach fifty percent (50%) of the companies’ registered capital prior to their remittance of funds out of the PRC. Allocations to these reserves and funds can only be used for specific purposes and are not transferrable to the parent company in the form of loans, advances or cash dividends. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Helpson’s net assets totaled $(4,375,345) and $(2,289,000), respectively. Due to the restriction on dividend distribution to overseas shareholders, the amount of Helpson’s net assets that was designated for general and statutory capital reserves, and thus could not be transferred to our parent company as cash dividends, was 50% of Helpson’s registered capital, which was both $8,145,000 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The amount that Helpson must set aside for the statutory surplus fund accounts exceeds its total net assets at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. There were no allocations to the statutory surplus reserve accounts during the six months ended June 30, 2024.
The Chinese government also imposes controls on the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies and the remittance of currencies out of China. Our businesses and assets are primarily denominated in RMB. All foreign exchange transactions take place either through the People’s Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People’s Bank of China or other regulatory institutions requires the submission of a payment application form together with certain invoices and executed contracts. The currency exchange control procedures imposed by Chinese government authorities may restrict Helpson, our Chinese subsidiary, from transferring its net assets to our parent company through loans, advances or cash dividends.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2024, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Our financial statements reflect the selection and application of accounting policies which require management to make significant estimates and judgments. Please refer to Note 1 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, “Organization and Significant Accounting Policies” for the discussion of our critical accounting policies.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act (a) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (b) is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives as described above. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2024 to satisfy the objectives for which they are intended. This was due to the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, with respect to our lack of accounting financial reporting personnel who were knowledgeable in U.S. GAAP, as disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on April 1, 2024. Notwithstanding the aforementioned material weakness, management has concluded that our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report are fairly stated in all material respects in accordance with U.S. GAAP for each period presented herein.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
