On April 26, 2010, Tsingda Management entered into a series of contractual agreements with Tsingda Education, and its shareholders, in which Tsingda Management effectively assumed management of the business activities of Tsingda Education and has the right to appoint all executives and senior management and the members of the board of directors of Tsingda Education.

The Tsindga Learning Concept


The Company is an on-line and off-line provider of educational services throughout PRC. It rolled out its offline “Tsingda Learning Centers” concept in 2006, and more recently in late 2008, it introduced an interactive and real-time, online learning platform, called Tsingda Internet Classroom which is accessible world-wide. The Company’s on-line and off-line educational services are not accredited by the Ministry of Education or any other governmental agency. As such, this learning medium was not designed as a substitute or alternative to existing learning provided by government run schools located within the PRC, rather it has been shaped to supplement existing learning.


Tsingda Learning Centers principally target elementary school (grades K-8) students and in most instances are located in close proximity of an elementary level school. The Company estimates that 70% of its student base is elementary students, with junior high and high school students representing the remaining 30%. The expansion of its “Tsingda Learning Centers” was designed to generally avoid the tier one cities of Shanghai, Beijing, Chengdu, and Guangzhou. Instead expansion efforts were concentrated on the second and third tier cities in the PRC. The Company estimates that there are 50,000 targeted 2nd and 3rd tier cities in the PRC. The Company reasoned that competition in these lower tier cities would be less intense than first tier cities, but more importantly, product demand was expected to be higher in these rural areas due to disparity in educational funding between the two areas.


China’s vast territory and large population has lead to the significant differences in educational funding and development between urban and rural areas. Compared with first tier cities, many rural areas lack qualified teacher and training resources. In recent years, a series of positive measures have been taken by related authorities to support the development of distance education. However, the problem is still quite pronounced, and massive input of the private sector is in demand in these rural areas. (Source: The Central People’s Government of PRC - http://www.gov.cn/; Ministry of Education of PRC http://www.moe.edu.cn/).  


According to official statistics, there is an obvious gap in the average education investment of students between rich and poor provinces in 2008. The gap reflected in primary schools, junior high schools and senior high schools can reach 7.9 times, 6.7 times and 8 times respectively. (Source Ministry of Education of PRC http://www.moe.edu.cn/).


As of December 31, 2009 and after three years of operations, approximately 1,750 Tsingda Learning Centers were in operation in 1,300 cities located in 27 provinces throughout the PRC. Of the total amount, three are company owned with the remainder being franchised operations. As of June 30, 2010, the Company has over 2,000 Tsingda Learning Centers in operation in 1,300 cities, of which four are company owned. The Company has become an educational channel with most geographical coverage in the industry, and has attained widespread recognition and reputation from its clients and the community.


In the fourth quarter of 2008, Tsingda Education successfully developed a robust, interactive learning platform called the “Tsingda Internet Classroom.” Tsingda Internet Classroom has been designed to be an “eBay®” online educational platform whereby buyers (students) and sellers (teachers) are linked through our proprietary software interface for the specific purpose of transacting educational related services. The target audience is mainly high school students, however, some classrooms are oriented towards junior high and other students. Company qualified teachers post specific courses along with pricing and presentations date(s). Interested students can browse the presentation web-page by teacher or subject matter. Teacher credentials, course outline, pricing, presentation times, and presentation mode (live or pre-recorded) are displayed for students. Course purchases are made electronically. Courses are presented through a live video feed which can be viewed electronically by the student. More popular courses are recorded for later presentation. This online learning platform offers students from less developed regions the opportunity to be able experience the teaching methodologies of better known, more experienced teachers from tier one cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.  Unlike the courseware provided at a learning center, courses in the virtual classroom have not been designed to be synchronous with local teaching curriculum.


The Tsingda virtual classroom was first launched for high school students, and later included junior high students. By the end of 2009, the number of students registered in this platform had exceeded 200,000, and the total amount of teachers using the platform exceeded 12,000.

The revenue model of Tsingda is comprised of its -- “online” and “offline” businesses.


"Online Teaching Classrooms":  All revenues generated from virtual classrooms are first collected by the Company and then shared with the respective teacher. The revenue sharing ratios for live sessions vary depending on teacher experience and course material. The Company receives between 60% of revenues from live sessions and 90% of revenues from pre-recorded sessions.  


"Offline Tsingda Learning Centers" For franchised locations, the Company receives the initial licensing fee, annual management fees of franchisees, 20% of the student generated revenues, and 10% from the sale of reference books and stationary products in the centers. For company owned locations, the Company retains 100% of the revenue generated at location.


During fiscal 2009, revenues from offline Tsingda Learning Centers accounted for approximately 94% of the total Company revenues (of which 91% was attributable to revenues from franchised locations), while online operations accounted for approximately 6% of total Company revenues.


Our Growth Strategy


Our growth and expansion strategy includes the following measures:


Increase the number of franchised learning centers. Presently, the Company has over 2,000 locations located in principally 2nd and 3rd tier cities. It estimates that there are approximately 50,000 2nd and 3rd tier cities in the PRC. Our plan is to increase the number of franchised learning centers by increasing our advertising and marketing initiatives in an effort to attract more franchisees. Our marketing and expansion efforts will remain in the 2nd and 3rd tier cities. During remainder of calendar year 2010, the Company intends to open approximately 500 additional franchised locations.


Increase the number of company owned learning centers. Due to the size of company owned locations, it is capable of absorbing higher student traffic, and thus generating higher overall revenues than a franchised location. In addition, the company recognizes all of the revenue stream from a company location. During the remainder of calendar year 2010, the Company intends to open approximately 35 additional company owned locations.


Increase traffic to our virtual classrooms. We plan to allocate more capital resources to the marketing of our virtual classrooms. This will be accomplished by subscribing to more per click ad space on selected Internet sites, such as Sina.com and Yahoo.com.cn.


Expand our menu of online and offline classes. For its Learning Centers, it intends to expand the breath of its services to include non-educational classes like paining and dancing and to enter into licensing arrangements for extracurricular programs.  For its virtual classroom, its plans to expand its menu to include classes on Western culture, such as art, food and entertainment. It also plans to develop English based platform where students can learn the different regional languages of China and Chinese culture including regional cooking and herbal medicine.

Tsingda Learning Centers.


As of the June 30, 2010, approximately 2,000 Tsingda Learning Centers are in operation in 1,400 cities throughout the PRC. Substantially all of these locations have been franchised to independent third parties, with three of these centers are Company owned.  

The following graph depicts the number of franchised locations by region at the end of fiscal 2009.


[compass8k081310003.gif]

A typical franchised learning center is approximately 100 to 300 square meters, while a company owned locations are almost double in size at 300 to 800 square meters.  Each franchised center is staffed with 4-5 employees, generally counselors, while company owned centers are staffed with 8-10 employees. The staff generally includes one supervisor, with remainder of staff consisting of counselors. The company’s experience to date has been that most centers are owned and operated by former teachers in the respective regions. Consequently, these operators often times are familiar with many of the families in the area and are able to promote the centers attributes to their prospective customer base.  


Generally, each learning center is located within close proximity of an elementary school, and most students are able to walk from their primary school to the learning center. Hours of operation are between 9:00 am to 8:30 pm each school day, however, high student traffic generally occurs between 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm. A typical franchise center receives approximately 40-80 students per day, while a company owned center receives approximately 80-100 students per day.


The Company has developed courseware designed to synchronously support existing curriculum offered by elementary, junior high and high schools in the PRC. The Company’s courseware is not an alternative to existing schooling, rather it is designed to support and compliment the state provided education.  It is regionally specific for approximately 97% of the regions in the PRC.


A Tsingda Learning Center consists of three segregated areas, online learning, counselor guidance, and educational products.


Online Learning Area. Each franchised and company owned center generally supports 15 and 50 computers, respectively, in the online learning area. During periods of high student traffic, computers are accessible to students for a maximum of one hour. Students pay for courses in advance with cash or electronically at the time of delivery through the Tsingda “e-card,” a re-chargeable debit card. Course materials at the learning center have been designed to match course subjects provided in local public schools. Once a student enters his name, ID and password, the Company’s proprietary software immediately recognizes the student’s school, grade level, and proficiency, and instantaneously delivers a menu of teaching materials designed to match the student’s current curriculum. The menu includes practice sessions, online Q&A database, mock tests, and interactive Q&A with teachers.


Counselor Guidance Area. Students utilize the counselor guidance area to complete homework or to perform workshop materials. The guidance area is supervised by counselor to ensure that students are not distracted by other students.   


Education Product Area.  Each center provides an array of products available for sale to students, which include teaching materials complimentary to courseware, DVDs, books, learning toys, and general office supplies. Students also are able to purchase Tsingda “e” learning cards in this area.

Key features of the Company’s proprietary courseware are as follows:


Comprehensive Reference Library. The Company has digitized 97% of the teaching materials of all elementary, junior high and high schools in the PRC. The library allows for easy student reference to the familiar teaching materials.


Curriculum Matching Courseware. Early in its product development, the Company recognized that in the PRC, like most other developed and developing countries, teaching curricula for the identical subject matter vary by region or province. Apart from digitizing 97% of the teaching materials of all elementary, junior high and high schools in the PRC, the Company has customized its teaching courseware to match local teaching materials. This means that a student in a Sichuan city learning center and a student in Nanjing city learning center will receive different courseware material on the same subject matter. These customized learning materials have been developed by the Company in collaboration with regional teachers.


Synchronous Courseware Delivery. The courseware delivers teaching materials to the student synchronously with materials taught in local schools. When logging on to the courseware, the student will identify the subject and lesson number. The Company’s proprietary software automatically delivers relevant teaching materials to the student. Sync courses completely match the local school textbook editions and provide repetitive learning for students. For each subject, students can choose from a variety of teachers thereby exposing student to different teaching practices.   


Interactive Teaching. The proprietary courseware detects weaknesses in a student’s aptitude. During testing and Q&A sessions, incorrect answers generate subsequent questions specifically aimed at the bolstering student’s weaknesses.


Results Evaluation. The courseware is result oriented and thus provides scores on mock tests and practice sessions so that the student can gauge his/her performance. Parents also can receive progress reports on demand which reflect a student’s progress in a given subject over a period of time.


Franchise Details


As of June 30, 2010, the Company has in excess of 2,000 franchised learning centers throughout the PRC. For each location, the Company enters into a standardized agreement with the franchisee.


Each franchise agreement grants a specific territory to a franchisee which in turn requires the franchisee to open a corresponding number of centers commensurate with such territory as follows:  


Minimum Number of Centers

Tsingda Virtual Classroom.


The “Tsingda Internet Classroom is a robust, multi-faceted on line educational platform delivering educational services in the PRC. The virtual classroom has been designed to be an eBay® like interface whereby buyers (students) and sellers (teachers) are linked through its proprietary software for the specific purpose of transacting educational related services. The platform currently targets mainly high school students and to a lesser extent junior high school students. However, the learning system can be applied to a variety of other educational fields including vocational education, and (global) Chinese language learning, among others. As mentioned elsewhere herein, the Company recognized the disparity in the level of public educational service delivered in the various regions throughout the PRC. The Company believes that its platform attempts to bridge somewhat the education gap by allowing students from the poorer, less funded regions, to experience the acumen and curricula of renowned teachers.


The Company first implemented its Internet classroom in the forth quarter of 2008. As of the December 31, 2009, total registered students and teachers reached 200,000 and 12,000, respectively. As of the June 30, 2010, total registered students and teachers reached 350,000 and 16,000, respectively.


Teacher Arrangements.


Qualifications of Teachers.


At inception, the Company believed that the strength and future success of its virtual classroom was dependent upon the qualifications of its faculty. As a result, it has implemented the following practices designed at attain and maintain high teacher integrity;


Background. The Company runs a series of background checks to verify academic credentials and employment history of each teacher. These checks include obtaining transcripts from schools and universities as well as phone interviews with colleagues.


Experience. Each teacher must have at least five years of prior teaching or research experience.


Course Subjects. Course subjects and course outlines are approved in advance to ensure that courses presented avoid sensitive political and social issues.


Quality Control. The Company frequently monitors live sessions to ensure that teachers adhere to pre-approved course outlines and to assess overall teacher performance. In addition, the Company also monitors email exchanges between students and teachers.


Financial Arrangements with Teachers.


The Company enters into formal agreements with its qualified teachers. Under the agreement, qualified teachers receive from the Company a percentage of subscription revenue from live courses. The percentage inuring to the teacher ranges between 10% to 40% dependent upon class subject matter, level of difficulty, and teacher qualification. In addition, teachers also receive from the Company 10% of subscriber revenue for all pre-recorded classes.  All course materials prepared by teachers are property of the Company.


As mentioned, teachers are qualified by the Company. Qualified teachers are afforded the flexibility to develop course content which they perceive as receptive to students, subject to approval by the Company. Teachers are then able to post to the platform, relevant information concerning one or more classes to be offered by the teacher. Relevant information includes the subject matter of the class, date and time of the class, price of the class, and the qualifications of the teacher. On any given day, a student can browse over hundreds of classes on a variety of subject matters. More popular classes are English, Math and Physics. Courses are presented live or pre-recorded from a prior live session. Classes range between 0.5 to 1.0 hours. Pricing ranges between $1.50 and $50 per class, again dependent upon class subject matter, level of difficulty, and teacher qualification.  Students enroll in the system by providing relevant personal and educational information, along with electronic bank information. Students log on to the platform by entering an assigned user name and password. The software interface allows students to browse the system by subject matter and teacher name.  Interested students can enter the virtual classroom for a free listing period of approximately five minutes  after which the student can either log out or remain online and his/her account will be charged for the class.


"Tsingda Internet Classroom" has designed a variety of teaching modalities to meet the "teaching" and "learning" requirements. These teaching methods include:


Renowned Teacher Classroom. The company has attracted over 150 teachers who are regarded as “renowned teachers” to prepare and develop courses. Generally, these courses are well attended and attendance can range from 1,000-10,000 students. The renowned teacher classroom enables students from the rural regions to experience the teaching skills and acumen of these renowned teachers. Renowned teacher classrooms are often recorded for subsequent viewing by students.



11







General Classroom. These classes are presented by qualified, albeit not renowned teachers. Typically, these classes are attended by 30 to 50 students. These classrooms are used for general courses, including as mathematics, English, and physics.


One-on-One Classroom. These are real time classrooms specially designed for students desiring personalized and private tutoring space.


All of the classrooms are designed to be interactive whereby teacher and student can communicate electronically through text messaging, audio feeds, and email, however, due to size of the Renown Teacher Classroom, interactive communications are limited.


The competitive advantages of the Tsingda’s virtual classroom are as follows;


No Geographical Limitation. The proprietary interface allows a student from anywhere in the PRC or elsewhere to subscribe to a variety of courses, many of which are presented by renowned teachers.


Real-time Interaction.  Many of the live courses allow real-time interaction between the student and teacher. Student/teacher communication can occur instantaneously by text messaging, audio channels, and emails.


Learning on demand. The Company’s platform provides a wide variety of live courses with a broad scheduling format, which includes weekends and holidays. Pre-recorded course are available 24/7.


Employees. As of March 31, 2010, the Company had approximately 150 full time employees and seven officers, including its chairman, and chief executive officer. Its employees are not represented by any collective bargaining agreement, and we have never experienced a work stoppage. We believe we have good relations with our employees. The Company also contracts with third party software providers from time to time to develop software applications in accordance with Company specifications.


Properties.  The Company’s corporate offices are located at No. 0620 S. Road of Yongleyingshiweihua, Yongledian Town, Tongzhou District, Beijing, PR China. The Company has entered into a three year lease terminating February 28, 2011. The office space presently consists of approximately 1,868 square meters. Annual rent for fiscal year 2010 is expected to be approximately $360,963.


As of the date June 30, 2010, the Company has three  company owned learning centers, all of which are located in the suburban areas of Beijing. Relevant information with respect to each of these locations is as follows:

Competition and Markets


In recent times, the PRC government has taken initiatives to improve of the educational system throughout the country due principally to the recognition that the country's technological development ultimately rests on the level of competency, or level of education, of its workforce. Yet despite these initiatives, there remains a severe need for ancillary education in the PRC due to a number of factors. China’s vast territory and large population have lead to a significant disparity in public educational offerings between urban and rural areas. According to official statistics, there is a significant gap in the average education investment of students between rich and poor provinces. The public funding disparity for primary schools, junior high schools and senior high schools can range between 6-8 times more in the rich, urban areas compared with the poorer, rural areas. (Source: Ministry of Education of PRC http://www.moe.edu.cn/). Compared with first-tier cities in PRC, many rural areas lack qualified teacher and training resources due principally to lack of funding from local governments. In recent years, a series of positive measures have been taken by related authorities to support the development of distance education.  However, the problem is still quite pronounced, and massive input from the private sector is in demand. (Source: The Central People’s Government of PRC http://www.gov.cn/; Ministry of Education of PRC http://www.moe.edu.cn/)  The Company expansion strategy targets these rural, under funded areas.


According to information published by the PRC government, Tsingda Education’s target population market as of December 31, 2010 is approximately 360 million individuals. The group is comprised of: infants and children below school age (6) - 160 million; primary school students - 110 million; junior high school students - 60 million; and senior high school students 30 million. (Source Ministry of Education  http://www.moe.edu.cn/)


Based on industry data, the market scale of online education in 2008 in the PRC amounted to approximately $5.1 Billion with 2012 projections reaching $10.6 Billion. Moreover, online education learners in China will climb to 23.1 million in 2010, twice as many as that in 2007. (Source: iResearch Consulting) In addition, Chinese online education market will experience an average growth of 150% in the next five years (Source: Beijing CCID Consulting).


Currently, the Company believes that it does not confront direct competition from its business model of offering combined offline and online educational services. Separately, however it does face direct competition from online web schools with respect to its online learning platform, and it faces indirect competition from traditional offline cram schools with respect to its learning centers. For its offline learning centers, the Company has avoided direct competition from the larger learning companies by avoiding the geographics of first tier cities. In addition, the Company has separated itself from most of its competition (both online and offline) due to its digitized and video content, which includes courseware from virtually all regions of the PRC. Moreover, the Company’s menu of online classrooms far exceeds it competitors.


Government Regulation

Our business is subject to regulation by governmental agencies in the PRC. Business and company registrations are certified on a regular basis and must be in compliance with the laws and regulations of the PRC and provincial and local governments and industry agencies, which are controlled and monitored through the issuance of licenses and certificates.

The registration No. is 110112006225438, and it is valid from October 24, 2003 through October 23, 2013.   Once the term has expired, the license is renewable.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations and financial condition of Tsingda Education for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 and for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, should be read in conjunction with the Selected Consolidated Financial Data, Tsingda Education’ financial statements, and the notes to those financial statements that are included elsewhere in this Form 8-K. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the Risk Factors, Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Business sections in this Form 8-K. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.


COMPANY OVERVIEW


Tsingda Education, with its subsidiary Tsingda Network, is a leading offline and online provider of educational services in the PRC. It has established the largest chain of education centers, known as “Tsingda Learning Centers.” As of the date of this report, it has in excess of 2,000 learning centers nationwide. Tsingda Education focus is directed towards students ranging from six to eighteen years old. Off-line services are comprised of company owned locations as well as franchised learning centers. On-line educational services are a web based platform offering services similar to its learning centers.


Tsingda Technology owns 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Tsingda Management. On April 26, 2010, Tsingda Management entered into a series of contractual agreements with Tsingda Education, and its shareholders, in which Tsingda Management effectively assumed management of the business activities of Tsingda Education and has the right to appoint all executives and senior management and the members of the board of directors of Tsingda Education. The contractual arrangements are comprised of a series of agreements, including a Consulting Services Agreement, Operating Agreement, Proxy Agreement, and Option Agreement, through which Tsingda Management has the right to advise, consult, manage and operate Tsingda Education for a quarterly fee in the amount of 100% of Tsingda Education’s quarterly, after tax net profits. Additionally, Tsingda Education’s Shareholders have pledged their rights, titles and equity interest in Tsingda Education as security for Tsingda Management to collect consulting and services fees provided to Tsingda Management through an Equity Pledge Agreement. In order to further reinforce Tsingda Management’s rights to control and operate Tsingda Education, Tsingda Education’s shareholders have granted Tsingda Management the exclusive right and option to acquire all of their equity interests in Tsingda Education through an Option Agreement.


As all of the companies are under common control, this has been accounted for as a reorganization of entities and the financial statements have been prepared as if the reorganization had occurred retroactively. The Company has consolidated Tsingda operating results, assets and liabilities within its financial statements.

Revenues. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we had revenues of $3,851,061, as compared to revenues of $3,453,359 for the three months ended March 31, 2009, an increase of approximately 11.5%. The increase is due to growth of the company’s online and offline businesses.


Expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we had expenses which are comprised of selling and general and administrative expenses of $1,617,126, as compared to expenses of $2,537,591 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, a decrease of approximately 36.3%.


General and administrative expenses include rent, corporate salaries, and related expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we had general and administrative expenses of $1,023,108 as compared to $972,196 for the comparable period from the prior year. The increase of approximately 5.2% in general and administrative expenses is due principally to the hiring of additional personnel to meet the company’s business growth.


Income Before Taxes. Income before taxes for three months ended March 31, 2010 was $2,233,050 compared with $917,180 for the comparable period from the prior year, which represents an increase of 143%.


Provision for Income Tax.  For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we had a provision for income tax of $336,188 compared with $143,103 for the comparable period for the prior year. The increase in tax provision is commensurate with the increase in operating income for the current period.


Net Income. For the reasons discussed above, we had net income for three months ended March 31, 2010 of $1,896,862 compared with $774,077 for the prior annual period.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


As of March 31, 2010, we had working capital of $10,337,494 compared with working capital of $7,951,103 as of March 31, 2009.


Our primary uses of cash have been for selling and marketing expenses, employee compensation, and working capital. The main sources of cash have been from revenues from franchisees and from our company owned locations.


The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the near to long term:

 

·

An increase in working capital requirements to finance the growth of our company owned locations,


·

Addition of administrative and marketing personnel as the business grows,


·

Increases in advertising, public relations and sales promotions for its franchising efforts into new or existing markets,


·

Software development and the purchase of servers as commensurate with student population growth, and


·

The cost of being a public company and the continued increase in costs due to governmental compliance activities.


The Company currently generates its cash flow through operations which it believes will be sufficient to sustain current level operations for at least the next twelve months.

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements between us and any other entity that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES


The 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, recovery of long-lived assets, income taxes, and the valuation of equity transactions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Any future changes to these estimates and assumptions could cause a material change to our reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements


A summary of significant accounting policies is included in Note 1 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009. Management believes that the application of these policies on a consistent basis enables us to provide useful and reliable financial information about our Company's operating results and financial condition.


Variable Interest Entities


Pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 46 (Revised), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - an Interpretation of ARB No. 51” (“FIN 46R”) we are required to include in our consolidated financial statements the financial statements of variable interest entities.  FIN 46R requires a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss for the variable interest entity or is entitled to receive a majority of the variable interest entity’s residual returns. Variable interest entities are those entities in which we, through contractual arrangements, bear the risk of, and enjoy the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entity, and therefore we are the primary beneficiary of the entity.


Tsingda Education is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”), and we are the primary beneficiary. On April 26, 2010, we entered into agreements with Tsingda Education pursuant to which we shall receive a quarterly fee in the amount of Tsingda Education’s quarterly, after tax net profits. In accordance with these agreements, Tsingda Education shall pay consulting fees equal to 100% of quarterly, after tax net profits to our wholly-owned subsidiary, Tsingda Management, and Tsingda Management shall supply the technology and administrative services needed to service Tsingda Education.


The accounts of Tsingda Education are consolidated in the accompanying financial statements pursuant to FIN 46R. As a VIE, Tsingda Education’s sales are included in our total sales, its income from operations is consolidated with our, and our net income includes all of Tsingda Education’s net income. We do not have any non-controlling interest and accordingly, did not subtract any net income in calculating the net income attributable to us. Because of the contractual arrangements, we have pecuniary interest in Tsingda Education that requires consolidation of Tsingda Education’s financial statements with our financial statements.




17






SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Consolidated Statements

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Network. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.


Cash

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all short term debt securities purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.


Concentrations Of Credit Risk

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash, short term investments, accounts receivable and advances to suppliers. However, all Company assets are located in the PRC and Company cash balances are on deposit at financial institutions in the PRC, the currency of which is not free trading. Foreign exchange transactions are required to be conducted through institutions authorized by the Chinese government and there is no guaranty that Chinese currency can be converted to U.S. or other currencies.


Recognition Of Revenue

Revenue is realized through sales to franchisees and other agents of rights to conduct online and offline education services.  Access to these services is obtained through the use of “cards”.  These cards are also sold to individual consumers.   The cards are used in a manner similar to the use of prepaid cards.

Revenue is recognized as education services are consumed.  Management is able to track the use of these services through its computer monitoring systems.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, which include cash, short term investments, accounts receivable and other receivables, advances to suppliers, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and other liabilities, approximate their fair values at December 31, 2009.


Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization is computed using the straight line method, with lives of five years for computers and related equipment and furniture, and eight to ten years for automobiles.  Intangibles are the cost of computerized video lessons delivered both online and offline; this cost is amortized by the straight line method using lives of three years.


Taxes

The Company generates its income in China where Value Added Tax, Business Tax, Income Tax, City Construction and Development Tax, and Education Surcharge taxes are applicable. The Company does not conduct any operations in the U.S.; therefore, U.S. taxes are not applicable.


Use Of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and 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. Actual results could differ from those estimated.


Common Stock

Common stock of the Company will occasionally be issued in return for services. Values will be assigned to these issuances equal to the market value of the common stock at the applicable measurement dates.  A Measurement Date is defined under pronouncements of the FASB which state the criteria to be used for the valuation of stock issued for goods and services.


Stock Options

Stock options, if issued, will be valued at fair value on the dates of issuance using a Black Scholes valuation model, in accordance with pronouncements of the FASB.


Other Comprehensive Income

The Company reports as other comprehensive income revenues, expenses, and gains and losses that are not included in the determination of net income. Resultant gains and losses during the years 2009 and 2008 are all the result of translations of Chinese currency amounts to U.S. dollars.




18






Foreign Currency Translation

All Company assets are located in China. These assets and related liabilities are recorded on the books of the Company in the currency of China (Renminbi), which is the functional currency. They are translated into US dollars as follows:


(a) Assets and liabilities, at the rates of exchange in effect at balance sheet dates;


(b) Equity accounts, at the exchange rates prevailing at the times of the transactions that established the equity accounts; and


(c) Revenues and expenses, at the average rate of exchange for the year.


Gains and losses arising from this translation of foreign currency are included in other comprehensive income.


Product Warranties

Refunds to students who withdraw from courses are rarely made and are made only at the discretion of the Company. For this reason and, since revenue is recognized only as services are provided, no provision is needed for possible withdrawals.


Advertising Cost

The Company expenses advertising costs when an advertisement occurs.


Segment Reporting

Management treats the operations of the Company as one segment.


Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Management believes that none of the recently adopted accounting pronouncements will have a material affect on the Company financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Except as noted above, there are no agreements or understandings for any of our executive officers or directors to resign at the request of another person and no officer or director is acting on behalf of nor will any of them act at the direction of any other person.

Directors are elected until their successors are duly elected and qualified.


Family Relationships


There are no family relationships among our directors or officers.


Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings


To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or executive officers has been convicted in a criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors, or has been a party to any judicial or administrative proceeding during the past five years that resulted in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining the person from future violations of, or prohibiting activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or a finding of any violation of federal or state securities laws, except for matters that were dismissed without sanction or settlement. Except as set forth in our discussion below in “Transactions with Related Persons,” none of our directors, director nominees or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.


SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE


Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of our equity securities which are registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our equity securities. Officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.


Based solely upon a review of the Forms 3, 4 and 5 (and amendments thereto) furnished to us for the 2009 fiscal year, we have determined that Mr. Rozelle and Mr. Richardson, former officers and directors, have been delinquent in filings their Form 3’s and Form 4’s. The Company believes that its current officers and largest stockholder will seek to comply timely with all future reporting under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.


INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS


Cayman Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors, except to the extent any such provision may beheld by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public  policy, such as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime.  Our articles of association provide for indemnification of our officers and directors for any liability incurred in their capacities as such, except through their own willful negligence or default.



22







Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is theretofore unenforceable. 


CORPORATE GOVERNANCE


Director Independence


We currently do not have any independent directors, as the term “independent” is defined by the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market.


Board Meetings and Annual Meeting


During 2009 fiscal year, our Board of Directors did not meet. We did not hold an annual meeting in 2009.


Board Committees


We presently do not have an audit committee, compensation committee or nominating committee or committees performing similar functions, as our management believes that until this point it has been premature at the early stage of our management and business development to form an audit, compensation or nominating committee. However, our new management plans to form an audit, compensation and nominating committee in the near future. We envision that the audit committee will be primarily responsible for reviewing the services performed by our independent auditors and evaluating our accounting policies and system of internal controls. We envision that the compensation committee will be primarily responsible for reviewing and approving our salary and benefits policies (including stock options) and other compensation of our executive officers. The nominating committee would be primarily responsible for nominating directors and setting policies and procedures for the nomination of directors. The nominating committee would also be responsible for overseeing the creation and implementation of our corporate governance policies and procedures. Until these committees are established, these decisions will continue to be made by our Board of Directors. Although our Board of Directors has not established any minimum qualifications for director candidates, when considering potential director candidates, our Board of Directors considers the candidate’s character, judgment, skills and experience in the context of the needs of our Company and our Board of Directors.


We do not have a charter governing the nominating process. The members of our Board of Directors, who perform the functions of a nominating committee, are not independent because they are also our officers. There has not been any defined policy or procedure requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nominations for directors. Our Board of Directors does not believe that a defined policy with regard to the consideration of candidates recommended by shareholders is necessary at this time because, given the early stages of our development, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until our business operations are at a more advanced level.


Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight


Our Board of Directors recognizes that the leadership structure and combination or separation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman roles is driven by the needs of the Company at any point in time. As a result, no policy exists requiring combination or separation of leadership roles and our governing documents do not mandate a particular structure. This has allowed our Board of Directors the flexibility to establish the most appropriate structure for the Company at any given time.


Currently, Mr. Zhang Hui is serving as the Chairman of our Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer, and President. Mr. Zhang’s role is to oversee and manage the Board of Directors and its functions, including setting meeting agendas and running Board meetings. In this regard, Mr. Zhang and the Board of Directors in their advisory and oversight roles are particularly focused on assisting senior management in seeking and adopting successful business strategies and risk management policies, and in making successful choices in management succession.


Our Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the overall risk management process at the Company. Risk management is considered a strategic activity within the Company and responsibility for managing risk rests with executive management while the Board of Directors participates in the oversight of the process. The oversight responsibility of our Board of Directors is enabled by management reporting processes that are designed to provide visibility to the Board of Directors about the identification, assessment, and management of critical risks. These areas of focus include strategic, operational, financial and reporting, succession and compensation, compliance, and other risks.




23






Shareholder Communications


Our Board of Directors does not currently provide a process for shareholders to send communications to our Board of Directors because our management believes that until this point it has been premature to develop such processes given the limited liquidity of our Common Stock. However, our new management may establish a process for shareholder communications in the future.


EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

ITEM 3.02 UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.

 

Pursuant to the transaction, on May 24, 2010, we issued 244,022.78 preferred shares of Compass to the Tsingda shareholders in exchange for 100% of the outstanding shares of Tsingda Technology. In addition, we issued 6,239,220 ordinary shares to Eastbridge Investment Group Corporation pursuant to a consulting agreement between Compass and Eastbridge.   Such securities were not registered under the Securities Act.  These securities qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, including Regulation S. The offering was not a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the offering, manner of the offering and number of securities offered. These shareholders made certain representations and warranties, including their investment intent and that they were not US Persons as defined in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S as required by Section 4(2) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, including Regulation S. They also agreed to and received share certificates bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 and Regulation S of the Securities Act. These restriction ensures that these securities would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering.” It is the Company’s position that the transaction met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, including Regulation S of the Securities Act.

ITEM 5.01 CHANGES IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT.


In connection with the Tsingda transaction, and as explained more fully in the above Item 2.01 under the section titled “Management” and below in Item 5.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, Mr. Karl Brenza resigned as Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company, and Mr. Hui Zhang was appointed Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company. Joseph Rozelle resigned from his position as a director of the Company effective June 21, 2010 and on that same date Liu Juntao and Mr. Kang Chungmai have been appointed as new directors of the Company.


As explained more fully in Item 2.01, in connection with the Tsingda transaction, on May 24, 2010, Compass issued 244,022.78 preferred shares to the shareholders of Tsingda Technology. Each preferred share has identical rights as 100 ordinary shares except that each preferred share is convertible to 100 ordinary shares.

ITEM 5.06 CHANGE IN SHELL COMPANY STATUS


As explained more fully in Item 2.01 above, we were a “shell company” (as such term is defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) immediately before Tsingda transaction.  As a result of the Tsingda transaction, Tsingda Management became our wholly owned subsidiary and became our main operational business.  Consequently, we believe that the Combination has caused us to cease to be a shell company.  For information about the Combination, please see the information set forth above under Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K which information is incorporated herein by reference.
