Sunday, April 26, 2009

As of September 30, 2009, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $8.71 million, other current assets of $1.02 million, and current liabilities of $9.77 million. Negative working capital was $46,218 at September 30, 2009. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 0.99-to-1 as of September 30, 2009.
 
The negative working capital and the ratio of current assets to current liabilities are primarily due to other payables of $7.62 million that Sinary is obligated to pay to the prior owners of Heilongjiang Weikang within one year from the closing of the acquisition of Heilongjiang Weikang. This payable does not bear any interest, and has been renewed to June 30, 2010.
