^a Non-GAAP EPS Figures exclude certain non-operating gains and losses as well as certain non-cash items contained in the company's filings. Non-GAAP information should not be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for reported, or GAAP information . The GeoTeam® non-GAAP figures may, from time to time, differ from company supplied figures.

^b The GeoTeam ® tax rate calculations may deviate from the company's reported tax rate, arising from the different treatment, in China vs. the U.S.A, with regards to the deductibility of certain expenses as well as the tax liabilities associated with certain gains. These differences typically arise from non-cash items. For an example on how Skystar Bio-Pharma calculates its tax rate please refer to its SEC 10Q filing (page 24, note 18). Skystar Bio-Pharma is not paying a full U.S. tax rate. The GeoTeam ® prefers to use U.S. fully-taxed EPS figures when calculating potential valuation scenarios. Therefore, EPS numbers have been adjusted by the GeoTeam ® to reflect a standard U.S. tax rate of 36%.

^cFor an explanation on how Skystar Bio-Pharma calculated diluted EPS for its 2008 first quarter please refer to its SEC 10Q filing (page 25, note 19). The GeoTeam ® followed the same logic when calculating 2008 first quarter tax-adjusted and non-GAAP EPS figures.
