LAIYANG, China, Jan. 13 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ -- Genesis Pharmaceuticals Enterprises, Inc. ("Genesis" or the "Company"), a U.S. pharmaceutical company with its principal operations in the People's Republic of China, today announced that it engaged KPMG Huazhen ("KPMG"), a member firm of the KPMG network of independent member firms affiliated with KPMG International, to assist the Company in complying with the financial reporting and control requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley Act Section 404 ("SOX 404").
KPMG will work closely with Genesis' management to help prepare a SOX 404 compliance program by sharing with Genesis' management its knowledge about how other firms comply with SOX 404 requirements on an ongoing basis. As part of compliance with SOX 404, Genesis and its external auditor will examine and report on the adequacy of the Company's internal financial reporting and control systems after documenting and testing financial reporting and control procedures. Genesis' SOX 404 compliance program will address how management's decision making is linked to financial reporting risks.

"We hope that our efforts increase shareholders' confidence in our financial reporting standards and commitment to upgrade to a senior stock exchange."
