BUSINESS
|
Overview
We are one of the largest developers,
manufacturers and distributors of wire and cable products in Northeastern China
(a region covering the provinces of Heilongjiang, Jilin and Liaoning in China).
We are engaged in the production of traditional cables, including metallurgy and
electric power system cables. We are also engaged in the production of specialty
cables, including marine cable, mine specialty cable, nuclear cable, and
petrochemical cable. We have the technical capability for the production of
large-scale marine cable, a segment with significantly higher profit margins
which we intend to pursue. Our traditional cable products are primarily focused
on serving end-user applications in the telecommunication, electrical utility,
and transportation (including automotive) markets. Our specialty cable products
are mainly used for marine building, nuclear power plants, mining corporations
and petrochemical enterprises.
We are headquartered in the city of
Dalian, which is situated at the tip of China’s Liaodong Peninsula. Dalian is a
trading and financial center in Northeastern Asia. We have established a branch
office at Beijing and representative offices at eight cities such as Tianjin,
Shenyang, Jilin, Benxi, Harbin, Tongliao, Zhengzhou, and Tangshan. Currently, we
only sell our products in China.
Company
History
We are a holding company and conduct
substantially all of our production, marketing, finance, research and
development, and administrative activities through our indirect subsidiaries
located in the PRC. We were incorporated in the State of Nevada under the name
“Frezer, Inc.” on May 2, 2005.

Prior to its formation on May 2, 2005,
the company was a wholly-owned subsidiary of BMXP Holdings, Inc., then known as
Bio-Matrix Scientific Group, Inc. (“BMXG”), a Delaware corporation engaged
primarily in the development of medical devices. The board of directors of BMXG
voted to distribute all shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001
per share (the “Common Stock”), held by BMXG to holders of BMXG common stock of
record as of May 31, 2005. On June 15, 2005, these stockholders received one
share of the Company’s Common Stock for each share of BMXG common stock. On June
1, 2005, the Company filed a registration statement on Form 10-SB with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Upon effectiveness of
such registration statement, the Company has been subject to the reporting
requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“Exchange Act”).
From
inception to July 11, 2006 the Company’s objective was to operate in the field
of stem cell banking and regenerative medicine. However, on July 11,
2006, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) unanimously
approved resolutions to abandon all plans to develop a stem cell banking
facility and market that facility's services.
On February 22, 2007, the Company
experienced a change in control as a result of purchase of an aggregate of
3,500,000 shares of Common Stock by KI Equity Partners IV, LLC ("KI Equity"), a
Delaware limited liability company. Following such change in control, the
Company became a shell company with nominal assets, no employees and no active
business operations.
On January 10, 2008, the Company's
Board of Directors adopted, and holders of a majority of our issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock approved, by written consent, a 1-for-20
reverse stock split of the Company's common stock outstanding, with special
treatment for certain of the Company's stockholders to preserve round lot
stockholders.
On March 13, 2009, the Company
experienced another change in control as a result of Befut Nevada’s purchase of
2,176,170 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, or 51% of the then outstanding
shares from three shareholders of the Company. Immediately after such change in
control, the Company acquired Befut Nevada, a holding company formed in the
state of Nevada and its indirect operating subsidiaries in the PRC, including
Dalian Befut. On the same day, the Company consummated a private placement of
$500,000 by issuing convertible notes with attached warrants to four individual
accredited investors.
Dalian Befut was incorporated on June
13, 2002 under the laws of PRC. It is currently owned by eight individuals in
the PRC, among whom, Mr. Hongbo Cao and Mr. Tingmin Li are the largest
shareholders having an aggregate of 90% of its equity interests. Pursuant to a
series of agreements, including Original Equipment Manufacturer Agreement,
Intellectual Property License Agreement and Non-competition Agreement, all of
which were dated February 16, 2009 by and between Dalian Befut and WFOE (the
“OEM Agreements”), Dalian Befut is controlled by WFOE and is a captive
manufacturer to it as Dalian Befut is contractually precluded form engaging in
business with any other person or entity.
On April 14, 2006, Befut Marine was
incorporated by Dalian Befut. Its current shareholders are Dalian Befut (having
86.6% of the equity interest) and three individual shareholders, namely, Mr.
Tingmin Li (having 6% of the equity interest), Mr. Hongbo Cao (having a 4%
equity interest) and Mr. Qingye Meng (having a 3.4% of the equity interest). The
three individuals are also shareholders of Dalian Befut. Befut Marine conducts
all of our marketing and production of marine cables.
On June 18, 2009, the Company
effectuated a company name change from “Frezer, Inc.” to “BEFUT International
Co., Ltd.” and a 1-for-4.07 reverse stock split of its outstanding shares of
common stock. As a result, its ticker symbol was changed to
BFTI.OB.
Our corporate organizational chart is
set forth below.

Business
Strategy
Our objective is the establish the
Company as the leading manufacturer of wire and cable products in China and to
expand distribution of our products to overseas markets in 2012.
In order to achieve this objective, we
plan to
– focus on specialty cable
production;
– expand
production capacity by constructing Changxing Island Project Phase I
Construction and Changxing Island Project Phase II
Construction;
– increase product offering to include
appliance switches.
Based on our sales generated from
specialty cable in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009, which was
approximately 85% of our total sales in that fiscal year, based on current
economic policy in China that encourages marine construction, mining,
petrochemical and nuclear industries, in fiscal year 2010, we plan to continue
to devote more resources into developing, marketing and selling of petrochemical
and marine cables as it is our long-term business strategy. We have completed
Changxing Island Project Phase I Construction (defined and described below under
“Recent Development”).
We plan to commence our Changxing
Island Project Phase II Construction (defined and described below under “Recent
Development”) when our Changxing Island Project Phase I Construction reaches
full capacity in approximately three years or when we target appropriate
strategic partner, whichever comes earlier. The main purpose of Changxing Island
Project Phase II Construction is to expand our production capacity for specialty
cable by introducing strategic alliances, integrating technology and industrial
resources so as to make us the most competitive specialty cable producer in
China and at the same time strive to enter the international cable markets.
Meanwhile, we will keep our sales of traditional cables at the current
production capacity.
We plan to enter the switch appliance
market in fiscal year of 2010 as we observed a number of our cable customers
have certain demand for switch products by setting up a joint venture 70% owned
by Dalian Befut (see Befut Zhong Xing under “Recent Development” below);
however, we anticipate only 5% of our total revenue to be generated from that
sector as that would not be our main business.
5
Recent
Development
As of the date of this report, we have
completed the first phase of the construction of a manufacturing facility in the
industrial zone on Changxing Island. The construction covers a land of 65,000
square meters with a total construction area of 45,477 square meters. We
commenced the construction in 2006. Changxing Island is 120 kilometers away from
Dalian. The construction includes production facility of 24,964 square meters,
warehouse of 5,326 square meters, office building of 8,264 square meters, and
other supporting facilities of 6,923 square meters (“Changxing Island Project
Phase I Construction”). We have reserved a land of 85,000 square meters for the
second phase of construction when funds become available (“Changxing Island
Project Phase II Construction”). After the completion of both phases, the
Changxing Island project will occupy a total land of 150,000 square meters, with
building construction of 87,000 square meters. The facility will be used mainly
for production of specialty cables which corresponds to our plan to focus on
specialty cables as our main business in the next five years.
On July 1, 2009, Dalian Befut, our
captive manufacturer, formed a joint venture under the laws of the PRC, Befut
Zhong Xing by investing approximately $100,000 (RMB700,000) for its 70%
equity interest in Befut Zhong Xing. The other party who holds 30% equity
interests is an individual. By setting up Befut Zhong Xing, we aim to enter into
switch appliance market as a number of our cable customers demonstrated certain
demand for switch products .

We plan to develop marine cables such
as submerged cables used to transfer data and telecommunications and marine
cable used in shipbuilding. We anticipate that Changxing Island Project Phase I
Construction, including the initial phase of the marine cable project, will cost
a total of approximately $23.46 million. It includes the costs of purchasing
land use rights and importing state-of-the-art production lines from Finland and
Canada. We received a one-year loan of approximately $3 million at an annual
interest rate of 6.1065% from China Merchants Bank in May this year, the
proceeds of which were used for Changxing Island Project Phase I Construction.
We are negotiating for a long-term loan of approximately $14.5 million to cover
most of the remaining budget of the construction. There is no assurance,
however, that we may be able to secure such loan or we may be able to obtain
necessary funding for this project at all.
We believe that the specialty cable
sector is one of the most profitable sectors in wire and cable industry with
significantly higher gross margins of up to 60%. Specialty cables typically are
produced specifically for certain uses in harsh conditions unsuitable for other
typical cables.

Manufacturing
Process
The
following illustration shows the basic steps in the manufacturing process for
our cable products:
Raw
Materials and Suppliers
Our primary raw materials include
copper, insulation materials and protective materials. Our main suppliers for
copper wire are Kaiyuan Shenda Nonferrous Metal Co., Ltd., Kaiyuan Wanjin Copper
Co., Ltd. and Tianjin Huabei Wire & Cable Manufacturing. Our main
suppliers for insulation and protective materials are Yingkou Genorio Industrial
Co., Ltd. and Tianjin Commercial Import & Export Co., Ltd.
Our principal raw materials are
generally available in the market and we have not experienced any raw material
shortages in the past. Because of the general availability of these raw
materials, we do not believe that we will experience any raw material shortages
in the future; however, changes in the prices of copper, which has an
established history of volatility, directly affect the prices of our products
and may influence the demand for our products.
The following is a list of our top
suppliers (in terms of purchases) in the fiscal year ended June 30,

Distribution,
Sales Network and Customers
We sell our products through
twenty-four full-time sales persons located in Dalian and sales branches in nine
cities, such as Beijing, Shenyang, Tianjin, Jilin, Harbin and Benxi to
facilitate the sales in those cities. These branches are staffed with a total of
twelve sales persons. In addition, we contracted three distributors. Normally,
the contracts with three distributors are for one year and non-exclusive. In
fiscal year 2009, most of our sales were generated by our full-time sales
persons.
We have a total of approximately 500
customers located in Northeastern China and other provinces in China. Most of
our clients are located in Dalian and its surrounding areas.
In fiscal year 2009, five customers
accounted for 45% of our total sales, among which, Huasheng Electric
Installation Corporation contributed to 19.9% of our total revenue. In fiscal
year 2008, four customers accounted for 26% of our total sales. There was no
single customer contributing to 10% or more of our total sales in fiscal year
2008.
Seasonality
Demand for our traditional cables
during December to March is generally lower than demand during spring and summer
months primarily due to the Chinese new year and spring festival which occur
during that period. Our specialty cable product sales have not experienced
seasonal trends. Our customers purchase specialty cable products throughout the
year. We believe that with the expansion on our production of specialty cable
products the impact of seasonality of the business will be somewhat
mitigated.
Research
and Development
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009
and 2008, we spent $89,179 and $6,903 on research and development, respectively.
We maintain an internal research and development department staffed with 40
staff including 31 full-time employees and 9 part-time employees.
Intellectual
Property
Trademark
Dalian Befut is the registered
trademark holder of the following trademark, which was registered with the
Trademark Office of the State Administration for Industry and Commerce in PRC in
China.
M∙Q∙E
The registered scope of use includes
wire products such as wire cable, electric wire, power materials (electric wire
and wire cable), and electric resister for copper wire. The registered term of
the trademark is from September 7, 2001 to September 6, 2011. Under the PRC
Trademark Law, which was adopted in 1982 and revised in 2001, registered
trademarks are granted for a term of ten years and are renewable for additional
terms. Each renewal is limited to ten year terms and the registrant must
continue to use the trademark and apply for a renewal within six months prior to
the expiration of the current term.
9
In 2008, the trademark above was
recognized as a Famous Trademark in China through a judicial procedure, one of
the two procedures in the PRC to grant a trademark such title (the other
procedure is through administrative procedure) pursuant to Rules on Famous
Trademark Recognition and Protection promulgated by the PRC National Industrial
and Commercial Bureau and implemented from June 1, 2003. A Famous Trademark in
China entitles an enterprise to a stronger protection as compared to a general
trademark in China. For example, it can prevent others from using the same or
similar trademark not only on the same or similar products but also on certain
products in other industries as long as the use of such trademark by others
would cause confusion or being misleading to a reasonable customer. In addition,
in a trademark dispute adjudication, being a Famous Trademark itself provides
self-evidence of influence on consumers. In Dalian, there have been
approximately ten Famous Trademarks granted.

Dalian Befut has six patents in China.

The PRC Patent Law was adopted by the
National People's Congress, the parliament in PRC, in 1984 and was subsequently
amended in 1992 and 2000. The Patent Law aims to protect and encourage
invention, foster applications of invention and promote the development of
science and technology. To be patentable, invention or unity models must meet
three conditions: novelty, inventiveness and practical applicability. The Patent
Office of the National Intellectual Property Office of the PRC under the State
Council is responsible for receiving, examining and approving patent
applications. A patent is valid for a term of twenty years in the case of an
invention and a term of ten years in the case of utility models and designs. Our
pending patents are all utility models and will subject to the ten years'
protection. Any use of patent without consent or a proper license from the
patent owner constitutes an infringement of patent rights. We cannot assure you
that any patent applications filed by us will be approved in the
future.
With respect to the intellectual
property rights such as trademarks and patents as described above and know-how
for the marketing and sale of the products manufactured by Dalian Befut, the
WFOE has entered into Intellectual Property Rights License Agreement, pursuant
to which, it is be permitted to use the trademark, patents and know-how for
nominal consideration.
Competition
Currently, there are approximately
7,000 manufacturers in China producing a variety of types of cables and wires,
most of which produce traditional electric cables and wires only. Among all of
those manufacturers, 2,000 manufacturers can undertake specialty cable
production, such as marine cables and mine cables. Furthermore, among the 7,000
manufacturers, only 40 are eligible for producing nuclear cables and 20 can
produce marine cables.
Our competitors include manufacturers
having the ability to conduct comprehensive cable and wire production like us,
such as Far East Cable Co., Limited (“Far East”), Shangshang Cable and the
manufacturers which can produce specialty cable such as Yangzhou Marine Cable
Manufacturing Factory.
Far Eastin Jiangsu Province in China is
our largest competitor in the sector of traditional electric cable and wires. It
is a leader in terms of market share. We believe our competitive advantage to
Far East is in specialty cable production, in which we have more qualification
certificates and market share than that of Far East.
In terms of specialty cables such as
marine cables, Yangzhou Marine Cable Factory is our major competitor. It entered
into this market earlier than us and has strong competitive advantage on
qualifications and market share. However, their market is mostly in
the adjacent provinces, such as Jiangsu and Zhejiang, which are not where we are
located.
Competitive
Advantages
We believe we have the following
competitive advantages:
11
We have a strong research and
development team, including highly skilled personnel such as the advanced
technology staff from Shenyang Electric Cable Factory. Shenyang Electric Cable
Factory used to be the largest state-owned cable company in Northeastern China
before its dissolution. Our team also includes the experts from Dalian Science
and Technology University.
We have obtained qualifications in
specialty cable production. We are nationally-designated enterprise for coal
mine and mechanical products and have passed National Confidential
Certification. We obtained Classification Society certifications from the PRC,
US, Germany, Italy, Japan and South Korea for our marine cables, first-grade
supply network certificate for China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC), and
MIL-Spec Quality Management System certification.
We have entered into a contract to
expand our production facilities in the Industrial Zone by harbor on Changxing
Island in Dalian to develop our marine cable production. As of today, we have
completed phase one of the construction. We believe such expansion may provide
us dominant advantages in terms of production scale and capacity in Northeastern
China.
We sell our own products to our
customers with minimal use of distributors or outside sales personnel. This
avoids middle-man charges.
We have sales offices across the region
which constantly follow up with our customers for product quality and solicit
customer comments on our products.
We have an excellent quality control
program that monitors our product quality before it is delivered to
customers.
Environmental
Compliance
We are subject to environmental
regulations that are generally applicable to manufacturing companies in the PRC.
For example, we obtained necessary approval for its new manufacturing
facilities. We are also subject to periodic inspection by environmental
regulators and must follow specific procedures in some of our processes. We have
not violated environmental regulations or approved practices.
Employees
We currently have 206 employees in
total, of whom 111 are full-time and 95 are part-time.
Government
Regulation
We are subject to the recent PRC State
Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”) regulations regarding offshore
financing activities by PRC residents. SAFE issued a public notice in October
2005 requiring PRC domestic residents to register with the local SAFE branch
before establishing or controlling any company outside of China for the purpose
of capital financing with assets or equities of PRC companies, referred to in
the notice as an “offshore special purpose company.” All of our PRC resident
shareholders have complied with the registration procedure with local
SAFE.
Dalian Befut’s production facilities
maintain an ISO 9001 Quality Management System.
According to The Rule Regarding the
Administration on Compulsory Products Certification promulgated by General
Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the PRC on
December 3, 2001 and effective from May 1, 2002, products that impact health and
safety of human beings, life and health of animals and plants and environmental
protection and public safety that are listed in the Index of the PRC Compulsory
Production Certification (the “Index”) are subject to the universally applicable
national standards, technical rules and implementation procedures. China
Compulsory Certification (“CCC”) is a mandatory requirement for the production,
distribution and exportation of any of the products that are listed in the
Index. Certain of our cable and wire products are subject to such certification
and we have maintained effective CCC status on those products
accordingly.
We received Classification Society
certifications for our marine cable products from classification societies such
as China Classification Society, American Bureau of Shipping, Germanischer
Lloyd, Italy, Nippon Kaiji Kyokai and Korean Register of Shipping. A
classification society is a non-governmental organization in the shipping
industry, often referred to as “Class”. It establishes and maintains standards
for the construction and classification of ships and offshore structures,
supervises that construction is according to these standards and carries out
regular surveys of ships in service to ensure these comply with these
standards.
In addition, we are a
nationally-designated enterprise for coal mine and mechanical products,
first-grade supply network certificate for China National Petroleum Corporation
(CNPC), and MIL-Spec Quality Management System certification.
12
We obtained a license for importing and
exporting products in 2006.

2. PROPERTIES
Under PRC
law, all land in the PRC is owned by either the state (“State Land”) or by rural
collectives (“Collective Land”), which grant a "land use right" to an individual
or entity after a purchase price for such "land use right" is paid to the
government. The "land use right" grants the holder the right to use the land for
a specified long-term period of time and other rights that are incidental to the
ownership of the land, except for the right to ownership. Land and buildings are
regarded as two separate properties in China. Land users may use the land and
own the buildings and improvements on it, but the sovereignty of the land is
retained by the State or rural collectives.
We lease a parcel of land in Dalian
City and three buildings on that land (namely, an office building of 170 square
meters, a boiler room of 450 square meters and an employee dormitory of 300
square meters) from Dalian Wanbao Industrial Co. Ltd. (the “Lessor”). Set forth

value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock") and 10,000,000 are shares of
preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred
Stock”).
Common
Stock
All outstanding shares of Common Stock
are of the same class and have equal rights and attributes. The holders of
Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a
vote of stockholders of the Company. All stockholders are entitled to share
equally in dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Board
of Directors out of funds legally available. In the event of liquidation, the

14
Preferred
Stock
Our Articles of Incorporation, as
amended, authorize the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock
with designations, rights and preferences determined from time to time by its
Board of Directors. Accordingly, our Board of Directors is empowered, without
stockholder approval, to issue Preferred Stock with dividend, liquidation,
conversion, voting, or other rights which could adversely affect the voting
power or other rights of the holders of the Common Stock. In the event of

a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the
Company. Although we have no present intention to issue any shares of our
authorized Preferred Stock, there can be no assurance that the Company will not
do so in the future.
The description of certain matters
relating to the securities of the Company is a summary and is qualified in its
entirety by the provisions of the Company's Articles of Incorporation and
By-Laws, copies of which have been filed or incorporated by reference as
exhibits to this report.
Holders
As of September 30, 2009, there were
approximately 575 shareholders of record of our common stock and an
indeterminate number of beneficial holders who held our Common Stock in street
name.
Transfer
Agent and Registrar
Our independent stock transfer agent is
Corporate Stock Transfer, Inc., located in Denver, Colorado. Their mailing
address is 3200 Cherry Creek Dr. South, Suite 430, Denver, CO 80209. Their phone
number is 303-282-4800 and fax number is 303-282-5800.
Dividends
Our board of directors has not declared
a dividend on our common stock during the last two fiscal years or the
subsequent interim period. It is the present intention of our board to utilize
all available funds for the development of the Company's business.
The payment of dividends, if any, is at
the discretion of the Board of Directors and is contingent on the Company's
revenues and earnings, capital requirements, financial conditions and the
ability of our subsidiary, WFOE, to obtain approval to send monies out of the
PRC. The PRC's national currency, the Yuan, is not a freely convertible
currency.
Penny
Stock Regulations
Our securities are subject to the SEC's
“penny stock” rules. The penny stock rules may affect the ability of owners of
our shares to sell them. There may be a limited market for penny stocks due to
the regulatory burdens on broker-dealers. The market among dealers may not be
active. Investors in penny stocks often are unable to sell stock back to the
dealer that sold them the stock. The mark-ups or commissions charged by the
broker-dealers might be greater than any profit an investor may make. Because of
large spreads that market makers quote, investors may be unable to sell the
stock immediately back to the dealer at the same price the dealer sold the stock
to the investor.
Our securities are also subject to the
SEC’s rule that imposes special sales practice requirements upon broker-dealers
that sell such securities to other than established customers or accredited
investors. For purposes of the rule, the phrase “accredited investor” means, in
general terms, institutions with assets exceeding $5,000,000 or individuals
having net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or having an annual income that exceeds
$200,000 (or that, combined with a spouse’s income, exceeds $300,000). For
transactions covered by the rule, the broker-dealer must make a special
suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written
agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the rule may
affect the ability of purchasers of our securities to buy or sell in any
market.
Recent
Sales of Unregistered Securities
In connection with the 1-for-4.07
reverse stock split (the “Reverse Split”) of our common stock effective June 18,
2009, we issued an aggregate of 58,815 shares of common stock. Any shareholder
owning at least 100 shares but less than 407 shares of our common stock on June
17, 2009 received at least 100 shares after giving effect to the Reverse
Split.
The issuance of 58,815 shares of common
stock of was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities
Act.

Overview
As we reported in the Current Report on
Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March
19, 2009, we entered into and consummated a series of transactions on March 13,
2009, whereby (a) The Public Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of
common stock of Befut Nevada, from Befut International Co. Limited, a British
Virgin Islands company (“Befut BVI”) in exchange for the issuance to Befut BVI
of a net number of 117,768,300 shares of the Company’s common stock and the
cancellation of an aggregate of 2,176,170 shares of the Company’s common stock
(the “Reverse Merger”) and (b) the Company raised $500,000 in gross proceeds
from the sale to four investors of convertible promissory notes of the Company
in the principal amount of $500,000 and warrants to purchase an aggregate of
720,076 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Private Placement”). Befut
BVI owns all the shares of Befut Hongkong and Befut Hongkong is the sole
shareholder of WFOE, which controls its captive manufacturing company, Dalian
Befut, through a series of agreements. Dalian Befut owns 86.6% of the
outstanding equity of Befut Marine. In addition, Dalian Befut owns 70% of the
outstanding equity of Befut Zhong Xing since July 1, 2009.
As a result of the Reverse Merger, we,
through WFOE, Dalian Befut and Befut Marine, are engaged in the production of
traditional cables, including metallurgy, electric power system cables and
specialty cables, including marine cable, mine specialty cable, nuclear cable,
and petrochemical cable.
Effective June 18, 2009, the Company
changed its name from “Frezer, Inc.” to “BEFUT International Co., Ltd.” It also
effectuated a 1-for-4.07 reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock. As
a result of the corporate name change and the reverse stock split, the Company’s
ticker symbol changed to BFTI.OB.

Our
Business
We are one of the largest developers,
manufacturers and distributors of cable and wire in northeastern China,
headquartered in the city of Dalian. We are engaged in the production of
traditional cables, including metallurgy, electric power system cables and
specialty cables, including marine cable, mine specialty cable, nuclear cable,
and petrochemical cable. We also have the technical capability for the
production of large-scale marine cable, a segment with significantly higher
profit margins. During the past decade, Dalian has become a center for ship
manufacturing plant construction. Therefore, we are positioning the
Company from being a traditional cable manufacturer to a specialty cable
supplier.
In 2006, we commenced the construction
of a manufactory plant in the industrial zone on Changxing Island which is 120
kilometers away from Dalian for the main purpose of specialty cable production.
As of the date of this report, we have completed the first phase of the
construction which covers a land of 65,000 square meters with a total
construction area of 45,477 square meters. The construction includes production
facility of 24,964 square meters, warehouse of 5,326 square meters, office
building of 8,264 square meters, and other supporting facilities of 6,923 square
meters. We have reserved a land of 85,000 square meters for the second phase of
construction when funds become available. The main purpose of our second phase
construction is to expand our production capacity for specialty cable by
introducing strategic alliances, integrating technology and industrial resources
so as to make Dalian Befut the most competitive specialty cable producer in
China and at the same time strive to enter the international cable market. After
the completion of both phases, the Changxing Island project is anticipated to
occupy a total of 150,000 square meters, with building construction of 87,000
square meters. The facility mainly will be used for production of specialty
cables which corresponds to our plan to refocus on specialty cables such as
marine cable as our main business in the next five years.
In the first half of the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2009, as a direct impact of the global financial crisis, orders
from ship manufacturers and steel refining companies decreased dramatically. In
the second half of the fiscal year, we adjusted our marketing strategy to
temporarily refocus on traditional coal cable until the economic environment is
recovered. In the month of June 2009, sales for specialty cable increased
dramatically. As a result, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, sales for
specialty cables were approximately 46.4% of our total sales. We will continue
to devote more resources into developing, marketing and selling of petrochemical
and marine cables as our long-term business strategy.
We sell our products through a network
of twenty-four salespeople located in Dalian and sales branches in nine cities,
such as Beijing, Shenyang, Tianjin, Jilin, Harbin and Benxi, to facilitate the
sales in those cities. These branches are staffed with a total of twelve
salespeople. In addition, we contracted with three distributors for the sale of
our products. Normally, the contracts with distributors are for one year. In
fiscal year 2009, most of our sales were generated by our full-time
salespeople.
Global
Economic Environment
Our business is dependent on consumer
demand for our products. We believe that significant uncertainty in the global
economy and a slowdown in ship manufacturing and steel refining have had a
significant impact on Company revenue and increased our clients’ sensitivity to
the cost of our products. If the global economic environment continues to be
weak, these worsening economic conditions could have a negative impact on our
sales growth and operating margin in 2010.
Despite the downturn in the ship
manufacturing and steel refining industries in the first three quarters of
fiscal 2009, mining and telecommunication construction in China progressed. As
such, demand for the related specialty cables increased, especially demand for
mining specialty cable which has a historical gross profit margin in a range of
35% to 45%.
Recent
Developments
We completed the first phase of the
construction of a manufacturing plant on Changxing Island which covers a land of
65,000 square meters with a total construction area of 45,477 square meters, and
which includes production facility of 24,964 square meters, warehouse of 5,326
square meters, office building of 8,264 square meters, and other supporting
facilities of 6,923 square meters (“Changxing Island Project Phase I
Construction”). We expect that production at the new facility will
commence towards the end of December 2009. Once in production, the estimated
full capacity will be approximately over $200 million. We have reserved a land
of 85,000 square meters for the second phase of construction when funds become
available (“Changxing Island Project Phase II Construction”). We plan to start
Changxing Island Project Phase II Construction when Changxing Island
Project Phase I Construction production reaches full capacity in approximately
three years or when we target appropriate strategic partner, whichever comes
earlier.
On July 1, 2009, Dalian Befut, our
captive manufacturer, formed a new company under the laws of the PRC, Befut
Zhong Xing by investing approximately $100,000 (RMB700,000) for its 70% equity
interest in Befut Zhong Xing. The other party who holds 30% equity interests is
an individual. By setting up Befut Zhong Xing, we aim to enter into the switch
appliance market as a number of our cable customers demonstrated certain demand
for switch products.

Sales
Our sales for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2009 were $19,308,939, a decrease of $704,036 or 3.5%, as compared to
the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. The decrease was primarily attributable to
a general decrease in copper prices. The selling price of our products is
significantly correlated with the market price of copper price. When copper
prices decrease, we typically lower our selling price in order to remain
competitive with other wire and cable manufacturers. During the period from
March 2008 to December 2008, copper prices dropped by approximately 68%. This
had a direct negative impact on our sales.
For the fiscal year ended June 30,
2009, our sales for traditional cable and specialty cable accounted for
approximately 53.8% and 46.2% of our total sales, respectively. We achieved an
increase in our total sales volume to 1,926.94 metric tons in the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2009, as compared to total sales volume of 1,727.25 metric tons
in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, an increase of 198.69 metric
tons.
Cost of
Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold is primarily
comprised of the cost of our raw materials and direct labor, manufacturing
overhead expenses. Our cost of goods sold for the fiscal year ended June 30,
2009 was $14,101,545, a decrease of $1,039,763 or 6.9%, as compared to the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. This was primarily due to the decrease in
copper prices. The average unit price of copper decreased by approximately 28.0%
in fiscal year 2009 as compared to fiscal year 2008.
Gross
Profit
Our gross profit is the difference
between net sales and cost of goods sold. Our gross profit for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2009 was $5,207,394, an increase of $335,727 or 6.9%, as compared
to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. Gross profit as a percentage of net
sales was 27.0% for the fiscal year of 2009, as compared to 24.3% for the fiscal
year of 2008.
The decrease in our net sales was
offset by the slightly larger decrease in cost of goods sold in the fiscal year
of 2009. The downward trend of the prices of our raw materials, mainly
consisting of copper, contributed to the decrease in cost of goods sold. As a
result, our gross profit in fiscal 2009 was marginally higher than that in
fiscal 2008.
Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses
Our selling, general and administrative
expenses consist primarily of salaries and bonus of sales personnel, advertising
and promotion expenses, freight charges, related compensation and professional
fees. Selling expenses were $121,393 in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 as
compared to $77,074 in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, an increase of
$44,319. The increase was primarily attributable to increase in delivery related
fuel expenses. General and administrative expenses were $1,257,979 for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, an increase of $395,260 or 45.8%, as compared
to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. Such increase was primarily due to the
amortization expense related to the acquired intangible assets as described
under Intangible Assets under Liquidity and Capital Resources in this
Item.
18
Income
from Operations
Our operating income was $3,828,022 for
the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, a decrease of $103,852 or 2.6%, primarily a
result of the decrease in sales and increase in selling, general and
administrative, partially offset by decrease in cost of goods sold.
Government
Subsidy
We received a subsidy from Chinese
local government for the fiscal year of 2009 in the amount of $159,979, as
compared to a subsidy of $492,294 for the fiscal year of 2008.
The local government has a favorable
policy to encourage new investments in Changxing Island where our new facilities
are located. However, such subsidy is determined on a yearly basis
and no assurances can be given that we will continue to receive any such
subsidies.
Income
Taxes
Our business operations were solely
conducted by our subsidiaries incorporated in the PRC and we were governed by
the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Laws. China enterprise income tax is calculated
based on taxable income determined under Chinese GAAP. In accordance with the
PRC Income Tax Laws, a Chinese domestic company is subject to the following
taxes, including but not limited to: (i) enterprise income tax rate has
decreased from 33% to 25% effective from January 1, 2008, when the new PRC
Enterprise Tax Law became effective; and (ii) value added tax at the rate of 17%
for most of the goods sold.
Provision for income taxes was $887,696
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, an increase of $816,638, compared to
the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. Such increase was due to the expiration of
special tax deduction for which we qualified due to its efforts in recruiting of
physically challenged employees. We are in the process of renewing our status
with the local government. Once our status is renewed, we expect that a tax
deduction will be granted retroactively, although there can be no
assurance.
Net
Income
Net income for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2009 was $2,259,413, a decrease of $1,970,575 or 46.6%, compared to net
income of $4,229,988 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. The decrease was
mainly attributable to an increase in general and administrative expenses of
$395,260, a decrease of $332,315 in government subsidy income, an increase in
provision for income taxes of $816,638 and costs of $491,281 in the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2009 related to our reverse merger consummated in March
2009.

The increase in working capital as of
June 30, 2009 as compared to June 30, 2008 was primarily due to the increase in
accounts receivable, short-term loans to unrelated parties, and advance payments
related to Research and Development, partially offset by increase in short-term
bank loans, trade notes payable and decrease in other assets. The increase in
accounts receivable was attributable to the dramatic increase in sales in the
month of June 2009.
Cash
Flows
During the fiscal years ended June 30,
2009 and 2008, we had a net change in cash and cash equivalents and restricted
cash of $443,252 and $21,431, respectively. The following table

We have historically financed our
operations and capital expenditures principally through cash provided by
operations and bank loans. Our management believes that the Company has
sufficient cash, along with projected cash to be generated by the business of
the Company to support its current operations for the next twelve months. We
project the cost of purchasing new production lines from Finland and Canada
would total approximately $6.5 million and the remaining unpaid balance of our
Changxing Island Phase I construction costs of approximately of $1.5 million is
expected to be financed by a long-term bank loan that we are in negotiation with
a bank in China. There can be no assurance that such bank loan or any additional
financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.
Operating
Activities
During the fiscal year ended June 30,
2009, we generated $50,006 more cash from operating activities as compared to
the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. We had an increase in trade notes payable
of $1,585,070, income tax payable of $777,494, other current liabilities of
$939,981 and decrease in inventory of $678,500, advance payments of $725,577 and
other current assets of $1,291,070, partially offset by less cash generated from
net income of $1,970,575 and increase in accounts receivable of $3,012,145.
Other current liabilities are the short-term loans the Company received from
other companies in China. They are short-term in nature, non-collaterized,
non-interest bearing and payable upon demand.
Investing
Activities
During the fiscal year ended June 30,
2009, we used $12,924,994 more cash for investing activities as compared to the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, which principally reflects increased spending
of approximately $3,272,219 for the construction of new factory building on
Changxing Island, increases loans to unrelated parties of $5,971,233 and an
increased advance payments for research and development of
$2,956,370.
Financing
Activities
During the fiscal year ended June 30,
2009, we generated $13,259,156 more cash for financing activities as compared to
the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, which principally reflects net proceeds
from short-term bank loans of $5,860,000, additional paid-in capital contributed
from existing shareholders of $5,301,971 and the issuance of convertible notes
payable of $500,000 to four investors in March 2009.
During the fiscal year ended June 30,
2009, we received proceeds from short-term loans of a total of $8,057,500 from
various Chinese local banks, and we repaid $2,197,500 for certain short-term
bank loans.

Accounts
Receivable
We had $8,560,592 accounts receivable,
net of allowance for doubtful accounts of $20,222 as of June 30, 2009, compared
to $5,902,124, net of allowance for doubtful account of $25,263 as of June 30,
2008, an increase of $2,658,468, mainly due to dramatic increase in sales in the
month of June 2009 as a result of unexpected customer orders. Another
contributing factor is that certain state-owned companies as our clients
beginning to require retaining from 5% to 10% of the revenues we generated from
them as product quality guarantee deposit for a term of one year. Such quality
guarantee deposit can be released to us if there are no quality issues of our
products at the expiration of such one-year term.
Inventories
Inventories consisted of the following
as of June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively:

We had total inventory of $1,353,532 as
of June 30, 2009, a decrease of $290,411 or 18.0%. The decrease is primarily due
to the decrease in copper price and the unexpected dramatic increase in sales in
the month of June in 2009. In June 2009, sales from our specialty cable
increased approximately 44.5% comparing to its average sales in the previous
eleven months in fiscal year 2009.
Intangible
Assets
In the third quarter of 2009, we
recorded a patent named Intelligent Reactive Power Compensation for Automatic
Screen at a value of $6,255,528. This utility model adopts non-contact
controlling from reactive controller to capacitor switching and therefore it
prolongs the useful life of equipment. We started amortizing this intangible
asset over its estimated useful life of ten years using straight-line method
from April 2009.
In the fourth fiscal quarter of 2009,
we recorded another patent named Automatic Environmental Protection MH-Ni DC
Battery Panel at a value of $5,282,878. This utility model has two chargers
running side by side extending current, strengthening the safety of charge power
supply. We started amortizing this intangible asset over its estimated useful
life of ten years using straight-line method from May 2009.
Both patents referenced above were
originally owned by three parties including Dalian Befut. Dalian Befut purchased
the portion owned by the other two parties. To one of the other two
parties, Dalian Befut paid cash of $155,356 plus 51% ownership of Dalian Befut
at a market value of $11,383,050 based on an independent
appraisal. The other party assigned his portion to Dalian Befut for
no consideration. Subsequent to the acquisition, the CEO Mr. Hong Bo Cao and
another shareholder Mr. Ting Ming Li purchased the 51% ownership back personally
from this third party.
We also recorded a well-known
trademark, the one we described under Item 1 Business/Intellectual
Property/Trademark section of this report, at a value of $83,505, the amount of
money we spent in registering with a governmental agency.
Total amortization expenses for the
intangible assets for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009 was
$291,520.
Loan to
Third Parties
Between 2009 and 2008, we entered into
four separate loan agreements with our important business alliances, which
permitted them to borrow principal up to RMB51 million (approximately $7.5
million) at an annual interest rate of 50% more than the current rate of banks
in China. These loans are secured by borrowers’ accounts receivables, fixed
assets and under the term ranged from one to four years. As of June 30, 2009 and
June 30, 2008, we had outstanding loans to third parties of $6,955,623 and
$505,375, respectively.

Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
At June 30, 2009, We did not have any
off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Revenue
Recognition
Sales revenue, is recognized at the
date of shipment to customers, at which time title passes to customer provided
that there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance, persuasive
evidence of formal arrangement exists, the sales price is fixed and
determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the
Company exist and collectability is deemed probable. Payments received before
all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded
as unearned revenue.
Use of
Estimates and Assumption
In presenting our financial statements
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, we are required to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported therein. Several
of the estimates and assumptions we are required to make relate to matters that
are inherently uncertain as they pertain to future events. However,
events that are outside of our control cannot be predicted and, as such, they
cannot be contemplated in evaluating such estimates and
assumptions. If there is a significant unfavorable change to current
conditions, it could result in a material adverse impact to our consolidated
results of operations, financial position and liquidity. We believe
that the estimates and assumptions we used when preparing our financial
statements were the most appropriate at that time. See Note 2 to our
consolidated financial statements, “Basis of Presentation and Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies.” While there have been no material changes to
our critical accounting policies as to the methodologies or assumptions we apply
under them, we continue to monitor such methodologies and
assumptions.
Cash and
Cash Equivalents
For statement of cash flows purposes,
the Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, certificates of deposit and
other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when
purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents.
Accounts
Receivable
Accounts receivable are stated at the
amount management expects to collect from balances outstanding at the end of the
period. Based on its assessment of the credit history with customers having
outstanding balances and current relationships with them, management makes
conclusions whether any realization of losses on balances outstanding at the end
of the period will be deemed uncollectible based on the age of the receivables.
The Company reserves 3% of accounts receivable balances that have been
outstanding less than one year, 5% of accounts receivable balances that have
been outstanding between one year and two years, and 100% of receivable balances
that have been outstanding more than two years.

Controls and Procedures
The
Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have reviewed and
evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, which
included inquiries made to certain other of the Company's employees. Based on
their evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer have each concluded that, as of June 30, 2009, the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures were effective and sufficient to ensure that we record,
process, summarize and report information required to be disclosed by the
Company in its periodic reports filed under the Securities and Exchange
Commission's rules and forms.
Management
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statement for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those
policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in
reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance
that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial
statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and
that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance
with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and
(iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection
of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that
could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Any
system of internal control, no matter how well designed, has inherent
limitations, including the possibility that a control can be circumvented or
overridden and misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected
in a timely manner. Also, because of changes in conditions, internal control
effectiveness may vary over time. Accordingly, even an effective system of
internal control will provide only reasonable assurance with respect to
financial statement preparation. In addition, the design of any system of
controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future
events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving
its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may
become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the
degree of compliance with policies or procedures. Therefore, any current
evaluation of controls can not and should not be projected to future
periods.
Management
assessed our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2009, the
end of our fiscal year of 2009. In making this assessment, management used the
criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission (COSO) in "Internal Control-Integrated Framework." The COSO framework
summarizes each of the components of a company’s internal control system,
including (i) the control environment, (ii) risk assessment, (iii) control
activities, (iv) information and communication, and (v) monitoring.
Based on
management's assessment using the COSO criteria, management has concluded that
the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June
30, 2009 to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial
reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting
purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles.

Changes
in Internal Control
There
were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that
occurred during our fourth fiscal quarter of 2009 that has materially affected
or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial
reporting.

Compensation
Discussion and Analysis
We strive to provide our named
executive officers (as defined in Item 402 of Regulation S-K) with a competitive
base salary that is in line with their roles and responsibilities when compared
to peer companies of comparable size in similar locations.
It is not uncommon for PRC private
companies in northeastern China to have base salaries as the sole form of
compensation. The base salary level is established and reviewed based on the
level of responsibilities, the experience and tenure of the individual and the
current and potential contributions of the individual. The base salary is
compared to the list of similar positions within comparable peer companies and
consideration is given to the executive’s relative experience in his or her
position. Base salaries are reviewed periodically and at the time of
promotion or other changes in responsibilities.
26
We plan to implement a more
comprehensive compensation program, which takes into account other elements of
compensation, including, without limitation, short and long term compensation,
cash and non-cash, and other equity-based compensation such as stock options. We
expect that this compensation program will be comparable to the programs of our
peer companies and aimed to retain and attract talented
individuals.

CERTAIN
RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR
INDEPENDENCE
|
Effective February 27, 2007, the
Company entered into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with
Vero Management, LLC (“Vero”), pursuant to which Vero agreed to provide a broad
range of managerial and administrative services to the Company including, but
not limited to, assistance in the preparation and maintenance of the Company’s
financial books and records, the filing of various reports with the appropriate
regulatory agencies as are required by State and Federal rules and regulations,
the administration of matters relating to the Company’s shareholders including
responding to various information requests from shareholders as well as the
preparation and distribution to shareholders of relevant Company materials, and
to provide office space, corporate identity, telephone and fax services,
mailing, postage and courier services. In exchange for Vero’s
services to the Company, the Company agreed to pay Vero a monthly fee equal to
$2,000. Effective July 1, 2007, the Management Agreement was amended by the
parties to reduce the monthly fee to $1,000 per month. On August 15, 2008, the
Management Agreement was terminated by the Company, effective July 1, 2008.
Kevin R. Keating owns and controls Vero and is also the sole officer and a
director of the Company. The terms of the Management Agreement were
determined based on terms which the Company believes would be available to it
from third parties on an arms’ length basis.
Kevin R. Keating, the Company’s former
sole officer and director, is the father of Timothy J. Keating, the principal
member of Keating Investments. Keating Investments is the managing member of KI
Equity Partners IV, LLC (“KI Equity”), the Company’s controlling stockholder
prior to March 13, 2009. Timothy J. Keating is the manager of KI Equity. KI
Equity dissolved on March 20, 2009 and the shares it held prior to its
dissolution were distributed to its members.
On February 22, 2007, the Company
issued 3,195,000 shares of Common Stock to KI Equity for aggregate proceeds
equal to $639,000. Effective as of February 22, 2007, the then existing officers
and directors of the Company resigned, and Kevin R. Keating was appointed as the
President, Secretary, Treasurer, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial
Officer and sole director of the Company. On February 27, 2007, the Company also
issued 85,000 shares of Common Stock to Kevin R. Keating, our then sole officer
and director, for services rendered to the Company valued at
$17,000. In connection with the issuances of common stock to KI
Equity and Kevin R. Keating, as described above, the Company granted to the
holders of these shares certain demand and piggyback registration rights. On
March 12, 2009, the Company terminated the demand registration rights granted to
KI Equity and Kevin R. Keating and revised the piggyback registration
rights.
On April 23, 2008, the Company borrowed
$20,000 from Vero under an unsecured promissory note payable upon
demand. On January 9, 2009, the Company borrowed an additional $8,750
from Vero under an unsecured promissory note payable upon
demand. Each of these notes bears interest at a rate of 5% per annum,
with the accrued interest being payable upon demand. The proceeds of
the notes were used for working capital purposes. Vero is owned and controlled
by Kevin R. Keating, the Company’s then sole officer and director. On
March 13, 2008, the Company paid off the principal of the notes and the
interests accrued as of the date of the payment.

Officer, Mr. Tingmin Li, a shareholder having more than 10% shares, Mr. Yining
Xia, our director, are also shareholders of Befut BVI. Mr. Cao, the sole

$170,000 on March 13, 2009. The terms of the purchase offered to Mr. Xia is the

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the
Board of Directors and Stockholders
BEFUT
International Co., Ltd.
(Formerly
Frezer, Inc.)
We have audited the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets of BEFUT International Co., Ltd. and subsidiaries
(the “Company”) as of June 30, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and
cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance
with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to
perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit
includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis
for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but
not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no
such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements,
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our
opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the consolidated financial position of BEFUT International
Co., Ltd. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated
results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the years then
ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.

Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period. Significant estimates include valuation reserves
for accounts receivable, inventory and income taxes. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
In
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 95, "Statement
of Cash Flows," the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with
original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Accounts
Receivable
Accounts receivable
are stated at the amount management expects to collect from balances outstanding
at the end of period. Periodically management assesses customer credit
history and relationships as well as performs accounts receivable aging
analysis. Based on the results, management determines whether certain balances
are deemed uncollectible at the end of period. Using its past collection
experience, the Company establishes allowance for doubtful accounts using the
following formula: 0.3% of
accounts receivable balances outstanding at the end of period. At June 30,
2009 and 2008, the balances for the allowance for doubtful
accounts were
$20,222 and $25,263, respectively.
Inventory
Inventory
is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is
determined using the
weighted-average cost method. Provisions are made for excess, slow moving and
obsolete inventory as well as inventory whose carrying value is in excess of net
realizable value. Management
continually evaluates the recoverability based on assumptions about
customer demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less
favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory reserves or
write-downs may be required that could negatively impact our gross margin and
operating results.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated based
on the
straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the assets as
follows:
Vehicles
|
5
to 10 years
|
Furniture,
machinery and equipment
|
5
to 10 years
|
Buildings
and improvements
|
20
years
|
Construction
in progress primarily represents the renovation costs of plant,
machinery and
equipment. Costs incurred are capitalized and transferred to property and
equipment upon completion, at which time depreciation commences.
Cost of
repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred. Gain or loss on
disposal of property and equipment, if any, is recognized in the consolidated
statements of operations.

Long-Lived
Assets
In
accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets,” the Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived
assets on a periodic basis in order to identify business conditions, which may
indicate a possible impairment. The assessment for potential impairment is based
primarily on the Company’s ability to recover the carrying value of its
long-lived assets from expected future undiscounted cash flows. If the total of
the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the total carrying
value of the assets, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair
value (computed based upon the expected future discounted cash flows) and the
carrying value of the assets.
Intangible
Assets
Intangible
assets are stated at cost. Intangible assets with finite life are amortized over
their estimated useful life using straight-line method whereas intangible assets
with infinite life are not subject to
amortization. Impairment test is performed at a minimum once a year
to determine possible impairment loss. Estimated useful life of intangible
assets is as follows:
Software
|
5
years
|
High-tech
patents
|
10
years
|
Well-known
trademark
|
Infinite
|
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company derives its revenues primarily from design and manufacture of
industrial wires and cables. In accordance with the provisions of Staff
Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104, revenue is recognized when products are
shipped, title and risk of loss is passed to the customers
and collection is reasonably assured. Payments received before the above
criteria are satisfied are recorded as advance from customers.
Research
and Development
Research
and development costs are expensed when incurred. Research and development costs
for the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 were
insignificant.
Advertising
Costs
The
Company expenses the cost of advertising as incurred. Advertising costs for the
years ended June
30, 2009 and 2008 were
insignificant.
Impairment
of Intangible Assets
The
Company applies the provisions of Financial Accounting Statement No. 142
“Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142)” which addresses how goodwill
and other acquired intangible assets should be
accounted for in financial statements. In this regard, the
Company tests these intangible assets for impairment annually or
more frequently if
indicators of potential impairment are present. Such circumstances could
include, but are not limited to: (1) a significant decrease in the market value
of an asset, (2) a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which
an asset is used, or (3) an accumulation
of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the
acquisition of an asset. The Company measures the carrying amount of
the asset against the estimated discounted future cash flows associated with
it at a risk-free
rate of interest. Should the present value of
the expected future net cash flows be less than the carrying value of the asset
being evaluated, an impairment loss would be recognized. The impairment loss
would be calculated as the amount by which the carrying value of the asset
exceeds its fair
value.

Impairment
of Intangible Assets (continued)
The fair
value is measured based on quoted market prices, if available. If quoted market
prices are not available, the estimate of fair value is based on various
valuation techniques, including the discounted value of estimated future cash
flows. The evaluation of asset impairment requires the Company to make
assumptions about future cash flows over the life of the asset being
evaluated. These assumptions require significant judgment and actual results may
differ from assumed and estimated amounts.
Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences
attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and operating
loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax
rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment
date.
A
valuation allowance is provided to reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax
assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion, or all, of
the deferred tax assets will not be realized. No differences were noted between
the book and tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities, respectively.
Therefore, there are no deferred tax assets or liabilities for the years ended
June 30, 2009
and 2008. The standard corporate
income tax rate has decreased from
33% to 25% beginning
on January 1, 2008, when the new Chinese tax law became
effective.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, which include cash and
cash equivalents, investment securities, accounts receivable, accounts payable,
accrued expenses and other obligations, approximate their fair value due to the
short-term maturities of the related instruments.
Foreign
Currency Translation and Transactions
The
financial position and results of operations of the Company is determined using
local currency (Chinese Yuan) as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities
are translated at the prevailing exchange rate in effect at each year end.
Contributed capital accounts are translated using the historical rate of
exchange when capital is contributed. Income statement accounts are translated
at the average rate of exchange during the year. Currency translation
adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates are included in
accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders' equity. Gains and losses
resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated
statements of operations.
Comprehensive
Income
The
Company has adopted SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, which establishes
rules for the
reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated
balances. SFAS No. 130 defines comprehensive income to include all changes in
equity, including adjustments to minimum pension liabilities, accumulated
foreign currency translation, and unrealized gains or losses on
available-for-sale marketable securities, except those resulting from
investments by owners and distributions to owners.

Earnings
Per Share
In
accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Computation of Earnings Per Share” (“SFAS No.
128”) and EITF No. 03-6, “Participating Securities and the Two-Class Method
under FASB Statement No. 128” (“EITF No. 03-6”),basic earnings per share is
computed by dividing net income attributable to ordinary shareholders by the
weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. The Company’s
Series A redeemable convertible preferred shares are participating securities.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to
ordinary shareholders as adjusted for the effect of dilutive ordinary equivalent
shares, if any, by the weighted average number of ordinary and dilutive ordinary
equivalent shares outstanding during the year. Ordinary equivalent shares
consist of the ordinary shares issuable upon the conversion of the convertible
preferred shares (using the if-converted method) and ordinary shares issuable
upon the exercise of outstanding share options (using the treasury stock
method).
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In April
2009, FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FSP 107-1 and APB
28-1 was issued to amend SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial
Instruments, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments
for interim reporting periods as well as for annual financial statements. This
FSP also amends APB Opinion No. 28, Interim Financial Reporting, to require those
disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods.
FSP 107-1 and
APB 28-1 are
effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. Adoption of
this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated
financial statements.
In April
2009, FSP
157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the
Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions
That Are Not Orderly, was issued to provide additional guidance for estimating
fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, when
the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly
decreased.
This FSP
also provides guidance on identifying circumstances which indicate that a
transaction is not orderly. FSP 157-4 is
effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009,
and shall be applied prospectively. Adoption of this guidance is not expected to
have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In
October 2008, the FASB issued FSP 157-3, Determining Fair Value of a Financial
Asset in a Market That Is Not Active (“FSP
157-3”). FSP 157-3 clarifies the application of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements, in an inactive market. It demonstrates how the fair value of a
financial asset is determined
when the market for that financial asset is inactive. FSP 157-3 was effective
upon issuance, including prior periods
for which financial statements had not been issued. The Company’s implementation
of this standard did not
impact its consolidated results of operations or financial
condition.
In
September 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4, Disclosures about
Credit Derivatives and Certain
Guarantees, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and FASB Interpretation No.
45; and Clarification of the
Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 161 (“FSP FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4”). FSP
FAS133-1 and FIN 45-4 amends
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities
(“SFAS 133”), to require disclosures by sellers of credit derivatives, including
credit derivatives embedded in
hybrid instruments. FSP FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4 also amend FASB Interpretation
No. 45, Guarantor’s
Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect
Guarantees of Indebtedness
to Others (“FIN 45”), to require additional disclosure about the current status
of the payment/performance
risk of a guarantee. The provisions of the FSP that amend SFAS 133 and FIN 45
are effective for reporting
periods ending after November 15, 2008. FSP FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4 also
clarifies the effective date in Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities
(“SFAS 161”). Disclosures required by SFAS 161 are effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years and
interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company’s adoption of FSP
FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4 on
January 1, 2009, will not impact its consolidated results of operations or
financial condition.

Accounting Pronouncements
(continued)
In June
2008, the FASB issued EITF 07-5 “Determining whether an Instrument (or Embedded
Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock”. This Issue is effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008,
and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is not
permitted. Paragraph 11(a) of SFAS No 133 “Accounting for Derivatives and
Hedging Activities” (“SFAS 133”) specifies that a contract that would otherwise
meet the definition of a derivative but is both (a) indexed to the
Company’s own stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the
statement of financial position would not be considered a derivative financial
instrument. EITF 07-5 provides a new two-step model to be applied in determining
whether a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s
own stock and thus able to qualify for the SFAS 133 paragraph 11(a) scope
exception. This
standard triggers liability accounting on all options and warrants exercisable
at strike prices denominated in any currency other than the functional currency
of the operating entity in China (Renminbi). EITF 07-5 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact of adoption of EITF 07-5 on the Company’s consolidated
financial statements.

On March
13, 2009, the Company completed a private financing totaling $500,000, for which
convertible promissory notes were issued, with four accredited investors (the

Stockholders under the Share Exchange Agreement. The securities offered in the
financing were sold pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase
Agreement”) by and among Frezer and the investors named in the Purchase

Note
15– Income Taxes
The
Company is a Nevada corporation and conducts all of its business through its
Chinese subsidiaries. All business is conducted in PRC. As the U.S. holding
company has not recorded any income for the year ended June 30, 2009 and 2008,
there was no provision or benefit for U.S. income tax purpose.
The
Company is governed by the Income Tax Law of the PRC concerning the private-run
enterprises, which are generally subject to tax at a new statutory rate of 25%
and were, until January 2008, subject to tax at a statutory rate of 33% (30%
state income tax plus 3% local income tax) on income reported in the statutory
statements after appropriate tax adjustments.
On March
16, 2007, the National People’s Congress of China approved the Corporate Income
Tax Law of the PRC (the New CIT Law), which is effective from January 1, 2008.
Under the new law, the corporate income tax rate applicable to all Companies,
including both domestic and foreign-invested companies, is 25%, replacing the
previous applicable tax rate of 33%. For the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008,
the income tax provision for the Company was $887,696 and $71,058,
respectively.
In July
2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No.48, Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48
clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing a minimum probability
threshold that a tax position must meet before a financial statement benefit is
recognized. The minimum threshold is defined in FIN 48 as a tax
position that is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the
applicable taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or
litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company
does not recognize any benefits in the financial statements for
the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.
Note
16 – Employee
Welfare Plan
The
Company has established an employee welfare plan in accordance with Chinese laws
and regulations. Full-time employees of the Group in the PRC participate in a
government-mandated multi-employer defined contribution plan pursuant to which
certain pension benefits, medical care, unemployment insurance and other
welfare benefits are provided to employees. PRC labor regulations require the
Group to accrue for these benefits based on a certain percentage of the
employees’ salaries.
