Santaro Holdings, Ltd
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

1.           ORGANIZATION AND DISCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Santaro Holdings, Ltd. (“SHL” or “the Company”) is a limited liability company organized under the laws of British Virgin Islands incorporated on December 2, 2009. 100 shares with par value $1.00 were issued and outstanding, although no capital was paid in as of September 30, 2010.

As a holding company, SHL has one wholly owned subsidiary, Santaro Investments, Ltd. (“Santaro HK”), a Hong Kong corporation set up by SHL on January 27, 2010. On July 13, 2010, Santaro HK set up a wholly owned subsidiary, Ningbo Sntaro Network Technology Co., Ltd. (“Ningbo Sntaro”), a Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprise (WFOE) organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”).  Ningbo Sntaro exercises control through a series of agreements over Beijing Sntaro Technology Co., Ltd. (“Beijing Sntaro”), an operating company organized under the laws of the PRC, and principally engaged in the development and operation of online games. Beijing Sntaro has 67.50% ownership interest in Beijing Sntaro Freeland Network Co., Ltd. (the “FL Network”), a company organized under the laws of the PRC.

PRC regulations prohibit direct foreign ownership of business entities providing internet content, or ICP, services in the PRC such as the business of providing online games. In September 2010, a series of contractual arrangements were entered between Ningbo Sntaro and Beijing Sntaro and its individual owners. Pursuit to the agreements, Ningbo Sntaro provides exclusive technical consulting and management services to Beijing Sntaro.  A summary of the major terms of the agreements is as follows:

(1)
Ningbo Sntaro has the sole discretion to determine the amount of the fees it will receive and it intends to transfer substantially all of the economic benefits of Beijing Sntaro to Ningbo Sntaro;
   
(2)
The equity owners irrevocably granted the Ningbo Sntaro the right to make all operating and business decisions for Beijing Sntaro on behalf of the equity owners;
   
(3)
All equity owned by the three equity owners were pledged to Ningbo Sntaro as a collateral against the service fee payable to Ningbo Sntaro;
   
(4)
The equity owners may not dispose of or enter into any other agreements involving the common shares without prior agreement by Ningbo Sntaro. 

Because the above arrangement, which assigned all of Beijing Sntaro’s equity owners' rights and obligations to Ningbo Sntaro resulting in the equity owners lacking the ability to make decisions that have a significant effect on Beijing Sntaro's operations and Ningbo Sntaro's ability to extract the profits from the operation of Beijing Sntaro, and assume the Beijing Sntaro's residual benefits. Because the Ningbo Sntaro is the sole variable interest holder of Beijing Sntaro, it is the primary beneficiary of Beijing Sntaro. Consistent with the provision of FASB Establishes Accounting Standards Codification  ("ASC") 810-10, the Company consolidates Beijing Sntaro from its inception.

 
 

 
 
Beijing Sntaro was organized under the laws of People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) on August 9, 2006 with paid-in capital of $139,580, which was 80% owned by Mr. Zhilian Chen, Beijing Sntaro’s chairman; the other 20% of the equity was held by Mr. Wenjie Lu.

In May 2008, Beijing Sntaro entered into its second change of equity ownership.

In April 2010 Beijing Sntaro entered into its third change of equity ownership. According to an amended equity agreement in December 2009, Mr. Xiaobo Li transferred his ownership in Beijing Sntaro to Mr. Zhilian Chen, another owner of Beijing Sntaro, and increased Mr. Chen’s percentage of ownership to 80%, with paid-in of capital $1,097,196. Mr. Xianhua Shen’s and Ms Yingnv Sun’s equity remained unchanged, with their percentage of ownership at 10%, and 10%, respectively, and paid-in capital of $137, 150, and $137,150, respectively.

2.           SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of consolidation and basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted by rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2009 of Beijing Sntaro.

 
 

 
 
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of the financial position as of September 30, 2010, and the results of operations and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, have been made. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2010.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2010 and for the nine months then ended include SHL, Santaro HK, Ningbo Sntaro, Beijing Sntaro and FL Network. The unaudited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2009 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 include Beijing Sntaro and FL Network. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Recent issued accounting pronouncements
In February 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-09 to amend ASC 855, Subsequent Events. As a result of the ASU, SEC registrants will not disclose the date through which management evaluated subsequent events in the financial statements - either in originally issued financial statements or reissued financial statements. This change addresses practice issues for SEC registrants with respect to processes around issuing financial statements and SEC registration requirements (e.g., incorporation by reference of previously issued financial statements).

In May 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-19, Foreign Currency (Topic 830): Foreign Currency Issues: Multiple Foreign Currency Exchange Rates.  The amendments in this Update are effective as of the announcement date of March 18, 2010. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-19 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

3.           GOING CONCERN

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements are presented on a going concern basis. The Company is in a development stage and has no revenue during the period from its inception to September 30, 2010 and has generated a net loss of $4,422,714 incurring a shareholders’ deficiency. This condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company plans to improve its financial condition by obtaining new financing from related parties and new investors. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on accomplishment of the plan. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing this objective. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Pursuant to the PRC Income Tax Laws, the Company and subsidiary are subject to EIT at a statutory rate of 25%.

As of September 30, 2010, Beijing Sntaro had a gross tax loss carry-forward of $2,881,665.

As of September 30, 2010, for PRC income tax purposes, FL Network had $2,507,285 gross loss carry-forwards.

Therefore, $248,884 was provided for against the deferred tax assets. $1,511,749 utilizable loss carry-forward would expire on December 31, 2014.
