This Annual Report on Form 10-K/A is being filed as Amendment No. 1 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.  The Form 10-K was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2010.

 

On April 15, 2011, our management concluded that the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 could no longer be relied upon due to improper presentation in the consolidated statements of operations and the consolidated statements of cash flows regarding the issues from discontinued operations. Specifically, the expenses from discontinued operation should not be within the operating expenses from continued operation for the year ended December 31, 2009 according to ASC 205-20, Discontinued Operations, and cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities of the discontinued operations should not be within the operating cash flow category for the year ended December 31, 2009 according to ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows. On April 28 2011, we filed a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing the need to restate our financials and the reasons for the restatement.  

 

In addition, this Amendment No. 1 is being filed to incorporate certain changes to our financial statements and corresponding amendments to the Item entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

 

History

 

As used herein the terms "We", the "Company", "CHFR", the "Registrant," or the "Issuer" refers to China Fruits Corporation, its subsidiary and predecessors, unless indicated otherwise. We were incorporated in the State of Delaware on January 6, 1993, as Vaxcel, Inc. On December 19, 2000, we changed our name to eLocity Networks Corporation. On August 6, 2002, we changed our name to Diversified Financial Resources Corporation. In May 2006, our board decided to redomicile from the State of Delaware to the State of Nevada. Their decision was approved by the holders of a majority of the voting rights and common stock. On August 18, 2006, we changed our name to China Fruits Corporation.

 

We began operating as a holding company in 2005. The primary objectives involved creating and managing a comprehensive portfolio of companies in key industry sectors. We did not meet our primary objectives in 2005.  As a result, during 2005 we decided to try and sell all of our real estate properties, and discontinued the operations of all of our subsidiaries. In the first quarter of 2006, our operations from continuing activities consisted of its investment in an oil and gas property in Texas, which was disposed during the second quarter of 2006.

    

As of April 1, 2006, we entered into a Plan of Exchange (the “Agreement”), between and among us, Jiang Xi Tai Na Guo Ye You Xian Gong Si, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the Peoples’ Republic of China, which changed its corporate name to Jiangxi Taina Nanfeng Orange Co., Ltd. in February of 2007 (collectively referred to herein as “Tai Na”), the shareholders of Tai Na (the “Tai Na Shareholders”) and our Majority Shareholder.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, two simultaneous transactions were consummated at closing, as follows: (i) our Majority Shareholder delivered 13,150 of our convertible Series A preferred shares and 12,100,000 non-convertible Series B preferred shares to the Tai Na Shareholders in exchange for total payments of $500,000 in cash and (ii) we issued to the Tai Na Shareholders an amount equal to 30,000,000 new investment shares of our common stock pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in exchange for all of their shares of registered capital of Tai Na. Upon completion of the exchange, Tai Na became our wholly-owned subsidiary. All of these conditions to closing have been met, and we, Tai Na, the Tai Na Shareholders and our Majority Shareholders declared the exchange transaction consummated on May 31, 2006. The transaction was treated for accounting purposes as a capital transaction and recapitalization by the accounting acquirer and as a re-organization by the accounting acquiree.

 

Business Description of the Issuer

 

Since the reverse merger was consummated, we have continued operations of Tai Na, a company which is principally engaged in manufacturing, trading and distributing fresh tangerine, non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages in the PRC. Tai Na is located in Nan Feng County, Jiang Xi Province, the well known agricultural area for tangerine in China. The geographic advantage benefits us with respect to the control of manufacturing cost and product quality. We have two self-owned one-storey plants at the same location, total area of which is approximately 45,800 square feet. We expect the production capacity will reach 6,000 tons in 2008. In order to assist in further expansion in the tangerine markets, we acquired the assets of Royal Nan Feng Orange Science & Technology Co., Ltd. ("Royal"), our former tangerine supplier, in 2007. The transaction was completed in July of 2008. As of September 30, 2008, the assets acquired from Royal included equipment of approximately $290,000, building of approximately $535,000 and land of approximately $368,000. During the three months ended September 30, 2008, we acquired additional building of approximately $151,000 from Royal.

 

In 2008, we expanded our sales network by setting up the franchise retail stores for fresh fruits and related products. We also relocated our headquarters to Beijing, which we believe will have a positive effect on our corporate image and marketing strategy. In order to create our brand identity efficiently, we plan to acquire or joint venture with the existing profitable and middle-size retail stores. We will provide the stores with management, supplies, as well as the remodeling in connection with display, color and sign to match the franchise requirements. The first franchise store was opened in Beijing in November of 2007. It is our biggest store with approximately 4,200 square feet and independent warehouse of approximately 1,200 square feet, which is located at the main street business center of He Ping Li, one of the busy areas in Beijing. As of December 31, 2009, there were three wholly-owned franchise retail stores opened, two of which located in Beijing and one located in Dongguan, southern China. Some franchise stores were discontinued in 2009 due to the global financial crisis. We believe the decrease in the number of franchise stores in the current economy is necessary for us to control our cost and enhance our operating efficiency.

 

(5)

 

The franchise retail stores build up the direct channel between the end users and us, which will facilitate the process from our plants to the markets, benefit us in adjusting our business strategies when market changes. In addition to our own products, we also work with our strategic partners to diversify the fruits in our store and ensure the prompt delivery. Even though we are currently suffering economic downturn, we still believe franchise retail stores will benefit us in business expansion. We expect more market shares via brand recognition in the near future.

 

In addition, in order to focus on the development of our fruit franchising business and establish a Nanfeng Tangerine Industrial Center, we have decided to discontinue our alcoholic beverage production business.  Management has decided that in China, alcoholic beverage production is a saturated business with limited growth potential.  As a result, on June 8, 2009, we entered into an Equipment and Inventory Sales Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Nanfeng Huaxia Wuqiannian Ecological Wine Village Ltd., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the Peoples’ Republic of China (“Huaxia”), pursuant to which we have agreed to sell all of its equipment in connection with alcoholic beverage production (the “Equipment”) and the inventory of alcoholic beverage (the "Inventory") to Huaxia in exchange for a payment of approximately $450,000 (RMB 3,080,000). The payments were paid in full by Huaxia on August 31, 2009.

 

Overview of Our Market Area

 

China's citrus industry currently experiences transition from quantity concentration to quality concentration, from production only to diversified business segments covering pre-production to post-production. Citrus production in China has the following features: 

 

v   Changes in Market Shares. Before the 1990s, approximately 70% of total citrus output was tangerine, 20% of the total were oranges. The percentages were changed to 55% for tangerine and 30% for orange in the past decade due to the improved quality of oranges with respect to size, outlook and taste.

 

v   Concentration on Chinese Market. Citrus products are primarily marketed in China. Approximately 2% of total citrus products are exported to different countries.

 

v   Increasing Fresh Fruits Consumption. Currently, the average consumption for fresh fruit is 61.4 kg per person per year in the world, of which fruit consumption of 55.4 kg per person per year in the developing countries, and 83.3 kg per person per year in the developed countries. In China, the average fruit consumption is 45.6 kg per person per year, deceased by 18% and 45%, compared to the developing countries and developed countries, respectively. Therefore, the fresh fruit market in China is still growing.

 

v   Preference to Fresh Fruits. 95% of citrus products in China are consumed as fresh fruit. Fruit manufacturing is not popular in China, most of which is for export only. In addition, the orange juices on Chinese markets are primarily made from concentrated or non-concentrated juices imported from Brazil and the United States.

 

In general, citrus output increased tremendously in China in the past decades due to the increases in orchards. However, compared to the world's market, the citrus industry in China is undeveloped in terms of quality, output, manufacture and efficiency. There are four barriers in China's citrus industry: a) small manufacturing magnitude, primarily based on household; b) lack of technology input, primarily based on nature growth; c) undeveloped commercial systems, particularly in storage and transportation; d) no clear segments in the industry, particular in household base. It is a long-term goal to rid us of all these barriers. After China entered the World Trade Organization ("WTO"), the sales channels for citrus products should be more facilitated due to the open markets. In the long run, the export of Chinese citrus will increase constantly, for both fresh fruits and processed products.

Marketing Strategies

 

Seeking for Opportunities to Develop International Markets

 

Our tangerines, known as "Nan Feng tangerine", are popular in the market due to the high quality, benefitting from the natural resources in Nan Feng County, which is a well known agricultural area for tangerines in China. Currently, we primarily market in China and hold a leading position in the Chinese market. However, this position is challenged since China’s accession to WTO in 2001. We believe the open-market policies will lower the barriers to entry, both in Chinese markets and global markets. WTO membership brought with it the opportunity to take advantage of new market access opportunities and new protections now available to China under the rules-based system of the WTO. When China was a non-member of the WTO, China found that exports were often the subject of discriminatory treatment in overseas markets. In addition, as a country with a planned economy to one with marketing economy, China often saw its exporting enterprises were subject to anti-dumping acts. All changed under the protection of WTO. Therefore, we take advantage of the fair markets regulated by WTO and seek for opportunities to develop international markets.

 

Creating Franchise for Retail Fruit Stores

 

Even though we are currently suffering through an economic downturn, we still believe franchise retail stores will benefit us in our business expansion. We plan to expand our sales network by setting up more franchise retail stores for fresh fruit and related products when the economy moves upward. In order to create our brand identity efficiently, we plan to acquire or form joint ventures with the existing profitable and middle-size retail stores. We will provide the stores with management, supplies, as well as the remodeling in connection with display, color and sign to match the franchise requirements. The first franchise store was opened in Beijing in November of 2007. The franchise retail stores will help build a direct channel between the end users and us, which will facilitate the process of moving product from our plants to the markets, and benefitting us in our business strategies when markets change.

 

Seeking for Strategic partners

 

For Nan Feng tangerine, other fresh fruit and certain related products, we intend to enter into collaborative arrangements with third parties. These collaborations may be necessary in order for us to:

 

* Enhance manufacturing capacities;

 

* Setup franchise retail stores in our target markets located in North China, East China and South China;

 

* Diversify the fresh fruit sold in the franchise stores;

 

* Expand the sales network;

 

* Increase sales revenue; and

 

* Successfully build brand identity.

 

(i)               On August 27, 2008, Tai Na International Fruits (Beijing) Co., Ltd ("Tai Na International") and Hangzhou Qunfeng Fruit Chain Management Co., Ltd ("Qunfeng") signed a strategic alliance framework agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, the two parties established a strategic alliance partnership by reaching a preliminary consent on mutual visits between high-level leaders, a distribution alliance, a franchise store alliance, an authorized regional agent and a reorganization of franchise stores and distribution centers. The signing of this agreement will facilitate Tai Na International in further exploring the East China market, expanding market share of its products, increasing brand awareness and achieving management interoperability and complementary business practices.

 

(ii)             On August 29, 2008, Tai Na International Fruits (Beijing) Co. Ltd. ('Tai Na International') and the China National Green Food Industrial Limited Company ('Green Industry') signed a letter of intent, pursuant to which, the two parties reached a preliminary consent on issues such as building a base for place-of-origin fruit, distribution of the base products in Beijing, store sharing and cooperative operation, as well as the acquisition of certain Green Industry assets by Tai Na International. This agreement is conducive for Tai Na International to further explore the North China market, expand Tai Na product's market share and increase its brand awareness, while providing a powerful guarantee for 'Tai Na International' fruits, which are 'green, pollution-free, organic and healthy.

Enhancing Manufacture Capacity

 

The acquisition of Royal is one of our strategies to enhance manufacturing capacity. Royal has been engaged in the citrus industry since 2002. Subsequent to the acquisition, we now have an additional two-story plant with total area of 66,003 square feet, and a one-story plant with total area of 9,125 square feet. In addition, we invested approximately $300,000 in machinery, office equipment, transportation facilities and other equipment, 90% of which is for a fruit wine production line. We also invested approximately $220,000 in two one-story new plants with total area of 45,800 square feet. The construction was completed in March of 2007. As of December 31, 2007, the assets acquired from Royal included equipment of approximately $290,000, building of approximately $535,000 and land of approximately $368,000. We expect to purchase additional assets during 2010.

 

Increasing Expenses in Marketing

 

We plan to increase the budget in advertising to support our franchise retail stores, which will cover our target markets including Beijing - North China, Haining, Hangzhou - East China, and Dongguang, Humen - South China. In addition, we retain professional consultants to integrate our marketing strategies. We believe their expertise will benefit us in connection with target markets definition, corporate image, brand identity and media preference.

 

Competition 

 

The domestic and international markets for the citrus industry are intensely competitive and require us to compete against some companies possessing greater financial, marketing and other resources than ours. In addition, we compete in the nonalcoholic beverages segment of the commercial beverages industry. The nonalcoholic beverages segment of the commercial beverages industry is highly competitive, consisting of numerous firms. These include firms that compete in multiple geographic areas as well as firms that are primarily local in their operation. Competitive products include numerous nonalcoholic sparkling beverages; various water products, including packaged water; juices and nectars; fruit drinks and dilutables (including syrups and powdered drinks); coffees and teas; energy and sports drinks; and various other nonalcoholic beverages. These competitive beverages are sold to consumers in both ready-to-drink and not-ready-to-drink form. Competitive factors impacting our business include pricing, advertising, sales promotions, product innovation, increased efficiency in production techniques, the introduction of new packaging, new vending and dispensing equipment, and brand/trademark development and protection.

 

Our competitive strengths include good quality with a high level of consumer acceptance; a national distribution network; sophisticated marketing capabilities; and a talented group of dedicated employees. However, we cannot be certain that efforts in marketing will be successful.

  

Government Regulation 

         

The production, distribution and sale in the Chinese market of our products are subject to the PRC State Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, state consumer protection laws, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, various environmental statutes; and various other state and local statutes and regulations applicable to the production, transportation, sale, safety, advertising, labeling and ingredients of such products.

 

Employees 

 

We have to make a rational allocation and use of personnel due to the global financial crisis. As of December 31, 2009, we had 46 full-time employees, of which 23 are experienced franchising management personnel.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the following factors, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described below are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deems to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

 

Water scarcity and poor quality could negatively impact our production costs and capacity

 

Water is the main ingredient in substantially all of our beverage products. It is also a limited resource in many parts of the world, facing unprecedented challenges from overexploitation, increasing pollution and poor management. As demand for water continues to increase in China and as the quality of available water deteriorates, our system may incur increasing production costs or face capacity constraints which could adversely affect our profitability or net operating revenues in the long run.

 

We rely on its strategic partners for a significant portion of its business. If we are unable to maintain good relationships with its strategic partners, our business could suffer

 

For Nan Feng tangerine, other fresh fruit and certain related products, we intend to enter into collaborative arrangements with third parties. These collaborations may be necessary in order for us to:

 

* Enhance manufacturing capacities;

 

* Setup franchise retail stores in our target markets located in North China, East China and South China;

 

* Diversify the fresh fruit sold in the franchise stores;

 

* Expand the sales network;

 

* Increase sales revenue; and

 

* Successfully build brand identity.

 

We cannot assure that we will be able to enter into collaborative agreements with partners on terms favorable to us, or at all, and any future agreement may expose us to risks that our partner might fail to fulfill its obligations and delay commercialization of our products. We also could become involved in disputes with partners, which could lead to delays in or terminations of our development and commercialization programs and time consuming and expensive litigation or arbitration. Our inability to enter into additional collaborative arrangements with other partners, or our failure to maintain such arrangements, would limit the number of product candidates which we could develop and ultimately, decrease our sources of any future revenues.

 

Increase in cost, disruption of supply or shortage of raw materials could harm our business.

 

The output of tangerine significantly relies on the local climate. The shortage of tangerine would increase our operating costs and could reduce our profitability. Increases in the prices of our finished products resulting from higher raw material costs could affect affordability in some markets and reduce our sales. An increase in the cost or a sustained interruption in the supply or shortage of the tangerine that may be caused by natural disasters could negatively impact our net revenues and profits.

 

Adverse weather conditions could reduce the demand for our products.

 

The sales of our products are influenced to some extent by weather conditions in the markets in which we operate. Unusually cold weather during the summer months may have a temporary effect on the demand for our products and contribute to lower sales, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations for those periods.

  

If we are unable to maintain brand identity and product quality, our business may suffer.

 

Our success depends on our ability to maintain brand identity for our "Nan Feng Tangerine". We cannot assure you, however, that additional expenditures and our renewed commitment to advertising and marketing will have the desired impact on our products' brand image and on consumer preferences. Product quality issues, real or imagined, or allegations of product contamination, could tarnish the image of the affected brands and may cause consumers to choose other products.

 

(9)

 

Changes in accounting standards and taxation requirements could affect our financial results.

 

New accounting standards or pronouncements that may become applicable to us from time to time, or changes in the interpretation of existing standards and pronouncements, could have a significant effect on our reported results for the affected periods. We are also subject to income tax in China in which we generate net operating revenues. In addition, our products are subject to sales and value-added taxes in China. Increases in income tax rates could reduce our after-tax income from affected jurisdictions, while increases in indirect taxes could affect our products' affordability and therefore reduce demand for our products.

 

If we are not able to achieve our overall long term goals, the value of an investment in us could be negatively affected.

 

We have established and publicly announced certain long-term growth objectives. These objectives were based on our evaluation of our growth prospects, which are generally based on the increase in our investment, and on an assessment of potential level or mix of product sales. There can be no assurance that we will achieve the required volume or revenue growth or mix of products necessary to achieve our growth objectives.

 

Our assets are located in China and its revenues are derived from its operations in China

    

In terms of industry regulations and policies, the economy of China has been transitioning from a planned economy to market oriented economy. Although in recent years the Chinese government has implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reforms, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets and the establishment of sound corporate governance in business enterprises, a substantial portion of productive assets in China are still owned by the Chinese government. For example, all lands are state owned and are leased to business entities or individuals through governmental granting of State-owned Land Use Rights. The granting process is typically based on government policies at the time of granting and it could be lengthy and complex. This process may adversely affect our future manufacturing expansions. The Chinese government also exercises significant control over China’s economic growth through the allocation of resources, controlling payment of foreign currency and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies. Uncertainties may arise with changing of governmental policies and measures. At present, our development of research and development technologies and products is subject to approvals from the relevant government authorities in China. Such governmental approval processes are typically lengthy and complex, and never certain to be obtained.

 

Political and economic risks

    

China is a developing country with a young market economic system overshadowed by the state. Its political and economic systems are very different from the more developed countries and are still in the stage of change. China also faces many social, economic and political challenges that may produce major shocks and instabilities and even crises, in both its domestic arena and in its relationship with other countries, including but not limited to the United States. Such shocks, instabilities and crises may in turn significantly and adversely affect our performance.

 

Risks related to interpretation of China laws and regulations which involves significant uncertainties

  

China’s legal system is based on written statutes and their interpretation by the Supreme People’s Court. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited value as precedents. Since 1979, the Chinese government has been developing a comprehensive system of commercial laws, and considerable progress has been made in introducing laws and regulations dealing with economic matters such as foreign investment, corporate organization and governance, commerce, taxation and trade. However, because these laws and regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited volume of published cases and judicial interpretation and their lack of force as precedents, interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve significant uncertainties. In addition, as the Chinese legal system develops, we cannot assure that changes in such laws and regulations, and their interpretation or their enforcement will not have a material adverse effect on our business operations.

 

Fluctuations in the exchange rate could have a material adverse effect upon our business.

 

We conduct our business in the Renminbi. The value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions. On July 21, 2005, the PRC government changed its decade old policy of pegging its currency to the U.S. currency. Under the current policy, the Renminbi is permitted to fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. This change in policy has resulted in an approximately 6.5% appreciation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar between July 21, 2005 and August 31, 2007. However, there remains significant international pressure on the PRC government to adopt an even more flexible currency policy, which could result in a further and more significant appreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar. To the extent our future revenues are denominated in currencies other the United States dollars, we would be subject to increased risks relating to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations which could have a material adverse affect on our financial condition and operating results since our operating results are reported in United States dollars and significant changes in the exchange rate could materially impact our reported earnings.

Declining economic conditions could negatively impact our business

 

Our operations are affected by local, national and worldwide economic conditions.  Markets in the United States and elsewhere have been experiencing extreme volatility and disruption for more than 12 months, due in part to the financial stresses affecting the liquidity of the banking system and the financial markets generally.  In recent weeks, this volatility and disruption has reached unprecedented levels.  The consequences of a potential or prolonged recession may include a lower level of economic activity and uncertainty regarding energy prices and the capital and commodity markets. While the ultimate outcome and impact of the current economic conditions cannot be predicted, a lower level of economic activity might result in a decline in energy consumption, which may adversely affect the price of oil, liquidity and future growth.  Instability in the financial markets, as a result of recession or otherwise, also may affect the cost of capital and our ability to raise capital.

 

You may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing original actions in China based on United States or other foreign laws against us, our management or the experts named in this current report.

 

We conduct substantially all of our operations in China and substantially all of our assets are located in China. In addition, most of our senior executive officers reside within China. As a result, it may not be possible to effect service of process within the United States or elsewhere outside of China upon our senior executive officers, including with respect to matters arising under U.S. federal securities laws or applicable state securities laws. Moreover, our PRC counsel has advised us that the PRC does not have treaties with the United States or many other countries providing for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgment of courts.

 

 

We face risks related to health epidemics and other outbreaks.

 

       Our business could be adversely affected by the effects of SARS or another epidemic or outbreak. China reported a number of cases of SARS in April 2004. Any prolonged recurrence of SARS or other adverse public health developments in China may have a material adverse effect on our business operations. For instance, health or other government regulations adopted in response may require temporary closure of our production facilities or of our offices. Such closures would severely disrupt our business operations and adversely affect our results of operations. We have not adopted any written preventive measures or contingency plans to combat any future outbreak of SARS or any other epidemic.

 

To date, we have not paid any cash dividends and no cash dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future.

 

We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future and we may not have sufficient funds legally available to pay dividends. Even if the funds are legally available for distribution, we may nevertheless decide not to pay any dividends. We intend to retain all earnings from our operations.

 

The application of the "penny stock" rules could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and increase your transaction costs to sell those shares.

 

As long as the trading price of our common shares is below $5 per share, the open-market trading of our common shares will be subject to the "penny stock" rules. The "penny stock" rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with their spouse). For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of securities and have received the purchaser's written consent to the transaction before the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the broker-dealer must deliver, before the transaction, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information on the limited market in penny stocks. These additional burdens imposed on broker-dealers may restrict the ability or decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to sell our common shares, and may result in decreased liquidity for our common shares and increased transaction costs for sales and purchases of our common shares as compared to other securities.

Our common shares are thinly traded and, you may be unable to sell at or near ask prices or at all if you need to sell your shares to raise money or otherwise desire to liquidate your shares.

 

Our common shares have historically been sporadically or "thinly-traded" on the “Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board”, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common shares at or near bid prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. This situation is attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company which is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community that generate or influence sales volume, and that even if we came to the attention of such persons, they tend to be risk-averse and would be reluctant to follow an unproven company such as ours or purchase or recommend the purchase of our shares until such time as we became more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will be sustained.

 

The market price for our common stock is particularly volatile given our status as a relatively small company with a small and thinly traded “float” and lack of current revenues that could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price. The price at which you purchase our common stock may not be indicative of the price that will prevail in the trading market. You may be unable to sell your common stock at or above your purchase price if at all, which may result in substantial losses to you.

 

The market for our common shares is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. The volatility in our share price is attributable to a number of factors. First, as noted above, our common shares are sporadically and/or thinly traded. As a consequence of this lack of liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our shareholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously in the event that a large number of our common shares are sold on the market without commensurate demand, as compared to a seasoned issuer which could better absorb those sales without adverse impact on its share price. Secondly, we are a speculative or "risky" investment due to our lack of revenues or profits to date and uncertainty of future market acceptance for our current and potential products. As a consequence of this enhanced risk, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the stock of a seasoned issuer. The following factors may add to the volatility in the price of our common shares: actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly or annual operating results; adverse outcomes, additions or departures of our key personnel, as well as other items discussed under this "Risk Factors" section, as well as elsewhere in this Current Report. Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our common shares, regardless of our operating performance. We cannot make any predictions or projections as to what the prevailing market price for our common shares will be at any time, including as to whether our common shares will sustain their current market prices, or as to what effect that the sale of shares or the availability of common shares for sale at any time will have on the prevailing market price.

 

Shareholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (2) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities. The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price.

 

(12)

 

Volatility in our common share price may subject us to securities litigation.

 

The market for our common stock is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. In the past, plaintiffs have often initiated securities class action litigation against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. We may, in the future, be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and liabilities and could divert management's attention and resources.

 

Our corporate actions are substantially controlled by a single stockholder.

 

Chen, Quan Long currently owns approximately 100% of our outstanding Series A and B Preferred shares, representing a majority of our voting power. This stockholder could exert substantial influence over matters such as electing directors and approving mergers or other business combination transactions. In addition, because of the percentage of ownership and voting concentration in the principal stockholder, elections of our board of directors will generally be within the control of this stockholder. While all of our shareholders are entitled to vote on matters submitted to our shareholders for approval, the concentration of shares and voting control presently lies with this principal stockholder. As such, it would be extremely difficult for shareholders to propose and have approved proposals not supported by the Chen, Quan Long. There can be no assurances that matters voted upon by the Chen, Quan Long will be viewed favorably by all shareholders of our company.

 

We may need additional capital, and the sale of additional shares or other equity securities could result in additional dilution to our shareholders.

 

We may require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other future developments, including any investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue. If our resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. The sale of additional equity securities could result in additional dilution to our shareholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations. We cannot assure you that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

 

PRC laws and regulations governing our business are uncertain. If we are found to be in violation, we could be subject to sanctions. In addition, changes in such PRC laws and regulations may materially and adversely affect our business.

 

There are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of PRC laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, the laws and regulations governing our business. We are considered a foreign person or foreign invested enterprise under PRC law. As a result, we are subject to PRC law limitations on foreign ownership of Chinese companies. These laws and regulations are relatively new and may be subject to change, and their official interpretation and enforcement may involve substantial uncertainty. The effectiveness of newly enacted laws, regulations or amendments may be delayed, resulting in detrimental reliance by foreign investors. New laws and regulations that affect existing and proposed future businesses may also be applied retroactively.

 

The PRC government has broad discretion in dealing with violations of laws and regulations, including levying fines, revoking business and other licenses and requiring actions necessary for compliance. In particular, licenses and permits issued or granted to us by relevant governmental bodies may be revoked at a later time by higher regulatory bodies. We cannot predict the effect of the interpretation of existing or new PRC laws or regulations on our businesses. We cannot assure you that our current ownership and operating structure would not be found in violation of any current or future PRC laws or regulations. As a result, we may be subject to sanctions, including fines, and could be required to restructure our operations or cease to provide certain services. Any of these or similar actions could significantly disrupt our business operations or restrict us from conducting a substantial portion of our business operations, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Forward Looking Statements

 

Certain statements in this report, including statements of our expectations, intentions, plans and beliefs, including those contained in or implied by "Management's Discussion and Analysis" and the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, are "forward-looking statements", within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), that are subject to certain events, risks and uncertainties that may be outside our control.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include statements of management's plans and objectives for our future operations and statements of future economic performance, information regarding our expansion and possible results from expansion, our expected growth, our capital budget and future capital requirements, the availability of funds and our ability to meet future capital needs, the realization of our deferred tax assets, and the assumptions described in this report underlying such forward-looking statements.

Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: 1) our ability to successfully develop and deliver our products on a timely basis and in the prescribed condition; 2) our ability to compete effectively with other companies in the same industry; 3) our ability to raise sufficient capital in order to effectuate our business plan; and 4) our ability to retain our key executives.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Revenue recognition

 

The Company derives revenues from the resale of tangerine purchased from third parties, net of value added taxes (“VAT”). The Company is subject to VAT which is levied on the majority of the products of Tai Na at the rate of 17% on the invoiced value of sales. Output VAT is borne by customers in addition to the invoiced value of sales and input VAT is borne by the Company in addition to the invoiced value of purchases to the extent not refunded for export sales.

 

In accordance with the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, transfer of title has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company’s sales arrangements are not subject to warranty.

 

Starting from October 2008, the Company commenced the trading of tangerine in the PRC.

  

(a) Sale of products

 

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products upon delivery to the customers and the transfer of title and risk of loss. The Company did not record any product returns for the year ended December 31, 2009.

 

(b) Interest income

 

Interest income is recognized on a time apportionment basis, taking into account the principal amounts outstanding and the interest rates applicable.

 

(17)

 

Inventory

 

Inventories consist of finished goods and are valued at lower of cost or market value, cost being determined on the first-in, first-out method. The Company periodically reviews historical sales activity to determine excess, slow moving items and potentially obsolete items and also evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand. The Company provides inventory allowances based on excess and obsolete inventories determined principally by customer demand. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company did not record an allowance for obsolete inventories, nor have there been any write-offs.

 

Property, Plant, and Equipment

 

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated residual values:

 

  Depreciable life   Residual value
Plant and machinery 10-12 years   5%
Furniture, fixture and equipment 5-6 years   5%

 

Expenditure for maintenance and repairs is expensed as incurred.

 

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

 

Revenues

 

Gross revenues were $1,905,030 and $1,655,503 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, due primarily to sales of fresh fruits and related products, including our signature tangerine. Our sales of non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages ceased in the second quarter of 2009 as a result of the execution of an Equipment and Inventory Sales Agreement, dated June 8, 2009,  made by us and Nanfeng Huaxia Wuqiannian Ecological Wine Village Ltd., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the Peoples’ Republic of China. We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of a sale exists, transfer of title has occurred, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Our sales arrangements are not subject to warranty. We did not record any product returns for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase in gross revenues by $249,527 in 2009 was due primarily to collaboration with the strategic partners. We designated exclusive distributors in different regions. For example, Liaoning Shenyang Yunpeng Fruits Limited ("Yunpeng") is our exclusive distributor within three provinces in Northeast China, through which we sold 2,600 ton tangerines. We expect sales to increase during 2010 as our moves toward implementing our business plan, including the increase in franchise retail stores, the increase in marketing budgets.

 

Income / Loss

 

We had a net loss of $246,361 for the year ended December 31, 2009, of which net loss of $170,438 from continuing operations, and net loss of $75,923 from non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages segment, which was discontinued in the second quarter of 2009. Comparatively, we had net income of 161,902 for the year ended December 31, 2008, of which net income of $79,777 from continuing operations, and net income of $82,125 from discontinued operations. The net loss in 2009 was because the increase in sales revenues in 2009 was offset by the increase in cost of goods sold, resulting in approximately the same amount of gross profit as in 2008. However, our general and administrative expenses in 2009 increased by $199,319, compared to general and administrative expenses of $309,331 in 2008. In addition, the Government grant decreased to $168,175 in 2009, from 325,088 in 2008.

 

There can be no assurance that we will achieve or maintain profitability, or that any revenue growth will take place in the future.

 

Expenses

 

Operating expenses for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were $880,388 and $780,285, respectively. The increase by $100,103 in 2009 was due primarily to the increase in selling and marketing and the increase in general and administrative expenses.

 

Cost of Goods Sold

 

Cost of goods sold included expenses directly related to the manufacturing and selling our products. Product delivery and direct labor would be examples of cost of goods sold items. During the year ended December 31, 2009, we had $1,329,385 in cost of goods sold, or 69.8% of sales revenue, none of which from related party. During the year ended December 31, 2008, we had $1,123,648 in cost of goods sold, or 67.9% of sales revenue, of which $0 was from related party. The slightly higher cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenue during 2009 was due to the increase in our purchase cost. The collaboration with more non-related suppliers will also help us to reduce the risk of concentration.

 

(18)

 

Impact of Inflation

 

We believe that inflation has had a negligible effect on operations during this period. We believe that we can offset inflationary increases in the cost of sales by increasing sales and improving operating efficiencies.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Cash flows used in operating activities were $176,760 for the year ended December 31, 2009, compared to the cash flows of $31,406 used in operations for the year ended December 31, 2008. Negative cash flows from operations in 2009 were due primarily to the net loss of $170,438 from continuing operation, plus the increase in accounts receivable by $38,865, the increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets by $421,018, and the decrease in other payables and accrued liabilities by $131,107, partially offset by the decrease in inventory by $145,818 and the increase in accounts payable and tax payable, which were $151,736 and $242,408, respectively.

 

The negative cash flow from operations during the year ended December 31, 2008 were due primarily to the increase in accounts receivable by $299,612, the increase in inventories by $179,242, and the decrease in tax payable by $231,807, partially offset by the net income of $79.777 from continuing operations, plus the non-cash expenses, including depreciation of $179,340, and stock based compensation of $193,750, and the increase in accrued liabilities in the amount of $267,719.

 

Cash flows used in investing activities were $426,438 during the year ended December 31, 2009 due to the purchase of property and equipment in amount of $439,291, offset by the proceeds from disposal of property and equipments in the amount of $12,853. Comparably, we had cash flows of $409,310 used in investing activities in 2008 due primarily to the purchase of property and equipment.

 

Cash flows provided by financing activities were $496,089 and $425,895 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Cash flows from financing activities in 2009 were due primarily to the third party loans of total $900,676, which consisted of a local bank in total amount of $439,354 (3,000,000RMB) bearing annual interest 5.841% and due on July 20, 2010, and four loans in total amount of $461,322 (3,150,000RMB) from local government, bearing no interest and paid back before November 30, 2012 and November 30, 2013, respectively. In addition, we had proceeds of $350,000 from the sales of our common stock, which was priced at $.20 per share.

 

Cash flows from financing activities in 2008 due primarily to a third party loan of $539,726, plus officer loans of $140,085, which are unsecured, non-interest bearing and repayable over 12 months. Additionally, we infused $621,965 as additional paid-in capital.

 

We project that we will need additional capital to fund operations over the next 12 months. We anticipate we will need an additional $500,000 in working capital during 2010 and $700,000 for the two years thereafter.

 

Overall, we have funded our cash needs from inception through December 31, 2009 with a series of debt and equity transactions, primarily with related parties. If we are unable to receive additional cash from our related parties, we may need to rely on financing from outside sources through debt or equity transactions. Our related parties are under no legal obligation to provide us with capital infusions. Failure to obtain such financing could have a material adverse effect on operations and financial condition.

 

We had cash of $453,831 on hand and a working capital of $1,142,379 as of December 31, 2009. Currently, we have enough cash to fund our operations for about six months. This is based on current cash flows from financing activities and projected revenues. Also, if the projected revenues fall short of needed capital we may not be able to sustain our capital needs. We will then need to obtain additional capital through equity or debt financing to sustain operations for an additional year. Our current level of operations would require capital of approximately $500,000 to sustain operations through year 2010 and approximately $700,000 per year thereafter. Modifications to our business plans may require additional capital for us to operate. For example, if we are unable to raise additional capital in the future we may need to curtail our number of product offers or limit our marketing efforts to the most profitable geographical areas. This may result in lower revenues and market share for us. In addition, there can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to us when needed or available on terms favorable to us.

On a long-term basis, liquidity is dependent on continuation and expansion of operations, receipt of revenues, and additional infusions of capital and debt financing. Our current capital and revenues are insufficient to fund such expansion. If we choose to launch such an expansion campaign, we will require substantially more capital. The funds raised from this offering will also be used to market our products and services as well as expand operations and contribute to working capital. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional equity or debt financing in the future, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital, our growth potential will be adversely affected and we will have to significantly modify our plans. For example, if we unable to raise sufficient capital to develop our business plan, we may need to:

 

• Curtail new product launches

 

• Limit our future marketing efforts to areas that we believe would be the most profitable.

    

Demand for the products and services will be dependent on, among other things, market acceptance of our products, citrus market and beverage market in general, and general economic conditions, which are cyclical in nature. Inasmuch as a major portion of our activities is the receipt of revenues from the sales of our products, our business operations may be adversely affected by our competitors and prolonged recession periods.

        

Our success will be dependent upon implementing our plan of operations and the risks associated with our business plans. We manufacture, trade and distribute fresh fruits, including our signature tangerine, to retail consumers and wholesale buyers. We plan to strengthen our position in these markets. We also plan to expand our operations through aggressively marketing our products and our concept.  

 

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

We do not use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio and has no foreign exchange contracts. Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable and long-term obligations. We consider investments in highly liquid instruments purchased with a remaining maturity of 90 days or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. However, in order to manage the foreign exchange risks, we may engage in hedging activities to manage our financial exposure related to currency exchange fluctuation. In these hedging activities, we might use fixed-price, forward, futures, financial swaps and option contracts traded in the over-the-counter markets or on exchanges, as well as long-term structured transactions when feasible.

 

Foreign Exchange Rates

 

All of our sales are denominated in Renminbi (“RMB”). As a result, changes in the relative values of U.S. Dollars and RMB affect our reported levels of revenues and profitability as the results are translated into U.S. Dollars for reporting purposes. Fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and RMB affect our gross and net profit margins and could result in foreign exchange and operating losses.

 

Our results of operations and cash flow are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate as quoted by the People’s Bank of China at the end of the period. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in our statement of shareholders’ equity. We recorded net foreign currency gains of $9,915 in fiscal 2009. We have not used any forward contracts, currency options or borrowings to hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. We cannot predict the impact of future exchange rate fluctuations on our results of operations and may incur net foreign currency losses in the future.

 

Our financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars but the functional currency of our operating subsidiary is RMB. The value of your investment in our stock will be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB. To the extent we hold assets denominated in U.S. dollars, including the net proceeds to us from this offering, any appreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar could result in a change to our statement of operations and a reduction in the value of our U.S. dollar denominated assets. On the other hand, a decline in the value of RMB against the U.S. dollar could reduce the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts of our financial results, the value of your investment in our company and the dividends we may pay in the future, if any, all of which may have a material adverse effect on the price of our stock.

 

The exchange rates used to translate amounts in RMB into U.S. Dollars for the purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements or otherwise stated in this MD&A were as follows:

 

  2009   2008

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of China Fruits Corporation

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of China Fruits Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years ending December 31, 2009 and 2008. 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 audit. 

 

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 included 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 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 financial position of China Fruits Corporation as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2, the Company has suffered accumulated deficit and negative cash flow from operations that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

As discussed in Note 23 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has restated its consolidated statement of operation and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 related to the presentation of income and cash flows from discontinued operation.

CHINA FRUITS CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

(Expressed in USD)

 

1.  ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND

 

China Fruits Corporation (the “Company” or “CHFR”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on January 6, 1993 as Vaxcel, Inc. On December 19, 2000, CHFR changed its name to eLocity Networks Corporation. On August 6, 2002, CHFR further changed its name to Diversified Financial Resources Corporation. The principal activities of CHFR is seeking and consummating a merger or acquisition opportunity with a business entity. On May 12, 2008, CHFR was re-domiciled to the State of Nevada.

 

On May 31, 2008, CHFR completed a stock exchange transaction with Jiangxi Taina Guo Ye Yon Xian Gong Si (“Tai Na”). Tai Na was incorporated as a limited liability company in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) on October 28, 2005 with its principal place of business in Nanfeng Town, Jiangxi Province, the PRC. Tai Na is principally engaged in manufacturing, trading, and distributing of Nanfeng tangerine, and operating franchise retail stores for fresh fruits through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Tai Na International Fruits (Beijing) Co. Ltd.

 

The stock exchange transaction involved two simultaneous transactions:

 

1)     the majority shareholder of CHFR delivered the 13,150 convertible Series A preferred shares and 12,100,000 non-convertible Series B preferred shares of CHFR to Tai Na’s owners in exchange for total payments of $500,000 in cash and;

 

2)     CHFR issued to Tai Na’s owners an amount equal to 30,000,000 new investment shares of common stock of CHFR pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in exchange for all of the registered capital of Tai Na.

 

Upon completion of the exchange, Tai Na became a wholly-owned subsidiary of CHFR and the former owners of Tai Na then owned 99% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

 

Also in connection with this stock exchange transaction, CHFR appointed Mr. Chen, Quanlong as chief executive officer and director and Ms. Zhao, Li Li as director and Ms. Huang, Xiaoyun as chief financial officer to CHFR. Furthermore, concurrent with the closing of this transaction, all of the Company’s former officers resigned from their positions.

 

On July 12, 2006, CHFR completed a 1 for 12.5 reverse stock split on the common stock and the par value remains at $0.001 per share. The reverse stock split is not subject to any condition other than Board of Directors approval under the Section 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes. In addition, Certificate of Change pursuant to NRS 78.209 was filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada in connection with the decrease in authorized capital. As a result, the total number of issued and outstanding shares was reduced from 402,866,323 to 32,229,689 shares and par value of its common stock was unchanged at $0.001. This is inclusive of issuance of 383 shares of common stocks as fractional shares. All common stock and per share data for all periods presented in these financial statements have been restated to give effect to the reverse stock split.

 

On August 18, 2006, CHFR changed its name to its current name “China Fruits Corporation”.

 

The stock exchange transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization of the CHFR whereby Tai Na is deemed to be the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and CHFR to be the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer). The accompanying consolidated financial statements are in substance those of Tai Na, with the assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses, of CHFR being included effective from the date of stock exchange transaction. CHFR is deemed to be a continuation of the business of Tai Na. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the following:

 

(1) the balance sheet consists of the net assets of the accounting acquirer at historical cost and the net assets of the accounting acquiree at historical cost;

 

(2) the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the acquirer for all periods presented as if the recapitalization had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented and the operations of the accounting acquiree from the date of stock exchange transaction.

 

CHFR and Tai Na are hereinafter referred to as (the “Company”).

2. GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTIES

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

 

As of December 31, 2009, the Company had a negative operating cash flow of $253,994 and an accumulated deficit of $1,204,314. Management has taken certain action and continues to implement changes designed to improve the Company’s financial results and operating cash flows. The actions involve certain cost-saving initiatives and growing strategies, including (a) reductions in headcount and corporate overhead expenses; and (b) expansion into new market. Management believes that these actions will enable the Company to improve future profitability and cash flow in its continuing operations through December 31, 2009. As a result, the financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

 

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

l   Basis of presentation

 

These accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

 

l   Use of estimates

 

In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the year reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008

(Expressed in USD)

 

Starting from October 2008, the Company commenced the trading of tangerine in the PRC.

 

(a) Sale of products

 

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products upon delivery to the customers and the transfer of title and risk of loss. The Company did not record any product returns for the year ended December 31, 2009.

 

(b) Interest income

 

Interest income is recognized on a time apportionment basis, taking into account the principal amounts outstanding and the interest rates applicable.

 

l   Cost of revenue

 

Cost of revenues consists primarily of material costs, direct labor, depreciation and overheads, which are directly attributable to the manufacture of products and the provision of services.

 

l   Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments.

 

l   Accounts receivable

 

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established and determined based on managements’ assessment of known requirements, aging of receivables, payment history, the customer’s current credit worthiness and the economic environment. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company has not recorded an allowance for uncollectible accounts.

 

l   Inventories

 

Inventories consist of finished goods and are valued at lower of cost or market value, cost being determined on the first-in, first-out method. The Company periodically reviews historical sales activity to determine excess, slow moving items and potentially obsolete items and also evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand. The Company provides inventory allowances based on excess and obsolete inventories determined principally by customer demand. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company did not record an allowance for obsolete inventories, nor have there been any write-offs.

l   Plant and equipment, net

 

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated residual values:

 

  Depreciable life   Residual value
Plant and machinery 10-12 years   5%
Furniture, fixture and equipment 5-6 years   5%

 

Expenditure for maintenance and repairs is expensed as incurred.

 

l   Impairment of long lived assets

 

In accordance with guidance issued by the FASB, long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of assets to estimated discounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets.

 

l   Comprehensive income (loss)

 

FASB ASC 220, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during the year from non-owner sources. Accumulated comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. This comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.

 

l   Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for income tax using FASB ASC 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred income taxes are provided for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and for the expected future tax benefits from loss carry-forwards and provisions, if any. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected in the years of recovery or reversal and the effect from a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income in the period of enactment. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion of, or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

l   Net loss per share

 

The Company calculates net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.

l   Foreign currencies translation

 

The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“U.S. dollars”). Transactions denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollar are calculated at the average rate for the period. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollar at the rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the other expenses in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income.

 

The Company’s subsidiary maintains its books and records in its local currency, the Renminbi Yuan (“RMB”), which is functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which its operations are conducted. In general, for consolidation purposes, the Company translates the subsidiary’s assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date, and the statement of operations is translated at average exchange rates during the reporting period. Adjustments resulting from the translation of the subsidiary’s financial statements are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income.

 

l   Retirement plan costs

 

Contributions to retirement schemes (which are defined contribution plans) are charged to general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income as and when the related employee service is provided.

 

l   Related parties

 

Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence. A material related party transaction has been identified in Note 14 in the financial statements.

l   Fair value of financial instruments

 

The Company values its financial instruments as required by FASB ASC 825, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company, using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.

 

The Company’s financial instruments primarily include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, advance to a third party, inventories, VAT and income tax recoverable, accounts payable, other payables and accrued liabilities.

 

As of the balance sheet date, the estimated fair values of financial instruments were not materially different from their carrying values as presented due to short maturities of these instruments.

 

l   Equity-based compensation

 

The Company adopts FASB ASC 718 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” using the fair value method. Under SFAS No. 123R, stock-based compensation expense is measured at the grant date based on the value of the option or restricted stock and is recognized as expense, less expected forfeitures, over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. See Note 13 for additional information.

 

l   Subsequent Events

 

We evaluated subsequent events through the date and time our financial statements were issued on April 12, 2010.

 

l   Recently issued accounting standards

 

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) - Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” ASU 2010-06 requires new disclosures regarding transfers in and out of the Level 1 and 2 and activity within Level 3 fair value measurements and clarifies existing disclosures of inputs and valuation techniques for Level 2 and 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2010-06 also includes conforming amendments to employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosure of activity within Level 3 fair value measurements, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those years. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operation.

 

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles - a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” (also issued as Accounting Standards Update “ASU” No. 2009-01). This standard establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. This standard is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of ASU No. 2009-5 had no impact on the results of operations or the financial position of the Company.

 

In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-5, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) - Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value.” ASU No. 2009-5 provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as assets, or another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of ASC Topic 820. ASU No. 2009-5 is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance. The adoption of ASU No. 2009-5 did not have a material impact on the results of operations or financial position of the Company.

 

In May 2009, the FASB issued a new accounting standard (FASB ASC 855-10) on subsequent events, which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This accounting standard establishes: 1) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements; 2) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements; and 3) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. This accounting standard also requires disclosure of the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operation.

 

In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments,” (FASB ASC 320-10-65), which amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance in U.S. GAAP for debt securities to make the guidance more operational and to improve the presentation and disclosure of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. This Staff Position was effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of this statement did not have an impact on the results of operations or the financial position of the Company.

12. INCOME TAXES

 

The Company conducts all its operating business through its subsidiary in China. The subsidiary is governed by the income tax laws of the PRC and do not have any deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities under the income tax laws of the PRC because there are no temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. The Company by itself does not have any business operating activities in the United States and is therefore not subject to United States income tax.

 

The Company’s subsidiaries are governed by the Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) concerning Foreign Investment Enterprises and Foreign Enterprises and various local income tax laws (the Income Tax Laws). Beginning January 1, 2008, the new Enterprise Income Tax (“EIT”) law has replaced the previous laws for Domestic Enterprises (“DEs”) and Foreign Invested Enterprises (“FIEs”). The new standard EIT rate of 25% has replaced the 33%

rate previously applicable to both DEs and FIEs.

 

Prior to 2008, under the Chinese Income Tax Laws, FIEs generally were subject to an income tax at an effective rate of 33% (30% state income taxes plus 3% local income taxes) on income as reported in their statutory financial statements after appropriate tax adjustments unless the enterprise was located in specially designated regions for which more favorable effective tax rates apply. Beginning January 1, 2008, China has unified the corporate income tax rate on foreign invested enterprises and domestic enterprises. The unified corporate income tax rate is 25%.

 

The Company generated substantially its net income from its PRC operation and has recorded income tax provision for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

   2009  2008
           
Deferred tax assets:          
- Net operating loss carryforwards  $573,769   $531,890 
Less: valuation allowance   (573,769)   (531,890)
           
Deferred tax assets  $—     $—   

 

For the year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, valuation allowances of $573,769 and $531,890 were provided to the deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty surrounding their realization.

 

The following table reconciles the U.S. statutory rate to the Company’s effective tax rate:

 

    2009    2008 
           
U.S. Statutory rate   34%   34%
Foreign income not recognized in USA   (34)   (34)
China income taxes   25    25 
China exemption   (25)   (25)
Total provision for income taxes  $—     $—   

 

The Company applies FASB ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires recognition of deferred income tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the income tax basis and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities. Provision for income taxes consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes. Because the Company has no operations within the United States, there is no provision for US income taxes and there are no deferred tax amounts as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.

 

The charge for taxation is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items that are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred taxes are accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of assessable tax profit. In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilized.

 

Deferred taxes are calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled. Deferred taxes are charged or credited in the income statement, except when they relate to items credited or charged directly to equity, in which case the deferred taxes are also recorded in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. The Company adopted FASB Interpretation 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”), as of January 1, 2007. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The adoption of FIN 48 had no affect on the Company’s financial

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

 

There have been no changes in and disagreements with accountants on accounting and financial disclosure in the past two fiscal years.

 

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods. Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer (collectively, the “Certifying Officers”) are responsible for maintaining our disclosure controls and procedures. The controls and procedures established by us are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.

 

To evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, we have adopted the framework prescribed by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).  We believe that this framework will assist in the provision of reasonable assurance of the effectiveness and efficiency of operations, the reliability of financial reporting, and compliance with applicable laws and regulations.  In adopting the COSO framework, we maintain a control environment, perform risk assessments, carry out control activities, emphasize quality information and effective communication, and perform monitoring.  In the maintenance of a control environment, we are committed to integrity and ethical values as well as to competence.  We strive to assign authority and responsibility in a manner that supports our internal controls, and we also maintain human resources policies and procedures designed to support our internal controls.  Our risk assessments are designed to ensure the achievement of company-wide and process-level objectives as well as to identify and analyze risks while managing change.  We believe that all of these components together form a foundation for sound internal control through directed leadership, shared values and a culture that emphasizes accountability for control.

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Certifying Officers evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation, the Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Certifying Officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

The Certifying Officers have also concluded, based on our evaluation of our controls and procedures that as of December 31, 2009, our internal controls over financial reporting are effective and provide a reasonable assurance of achieving their objective.

 

Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements under all potential conditions. Therefore, effective internal control over financial reporting provides only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that a restatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in the our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report.

ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a) Conclusions regarding disclosure controls and procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures are the Company’s controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-14(c) promulgated under the Exchange Act as of December 31, 2009, and, based on their evaluation, as of the end of such period, the our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by the Annual Report,

 

(b) Management’s Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. It is management’s responsibilities to establish and maintain adequate internal controls over the Company’s financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the issuer’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the issuer’s management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

 

• Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the issuer; and

 

• Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management of the issuer; and

 

• Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the issuer’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

  

As of the end of the period covered by the Annual Report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.

 

Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of the end of the period covered by the Report.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

 

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.

 

(c) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Family Relationships.

 

None.

 

Legal Proceedings.

 

No officer, director, or persons nominated for such positions and no promoter or significant employee has been involved in legal proceedings that would be material to an evaluation of our management.

 

Audit Committee

 

We do not have a separately designated standing audit committee. Pursuant to Section 3(a)(58)(B) of the Exchange Act, the entire Board of Directors acts as an audit committee for the purpose of overseeing the accounting and financial reporting processes, and audits of our financial statements. The Commission recently adopted new regulations relating to audit committee composition and functions, including disclosure requirements relating to the presence of an "audit committee financial expert" serving on its audit committee. In connection with these new requirements, our Board of Directors examined the Commission's definition of "audit committee financial expert" and concluded that we do not currently have a person that qualifies as such an expert. We have had minimal operations for the past two (2) years. Presently, there are only four (4) directors serving on our Board, and us are not in a position at this time to attract, retain and compensate additional directors in order to acquire a director who qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert", but we intend to retain an additional director who will qualify as such an expert, as soon as reasonably practicable. While neither of our current directors meets the qualifications of an "audit committee financial expert", each of our directors, by virtue of his past employment experience, has considerable knowledge of financial statements, finance, and accounting, and has significant employment experience involving financial oversight responsibilities. Accordingly, we believe that our current directors capably fulfill the duties and responsibilities of an audit committee in the absence of such an expert.

Code of Ethics

 

We have adopted a code of ethic (the "Code of Ethics") that applies to our principal chief executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. The Code of Ethics is being designed with the intent to deter wrongdoing, and to promote the following:

 

Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships
Full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that a small business issuer files with, or submits to, the Commission and in other public communications made by the small business issuer
Compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations
The prompt internal reporting of violations of the code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the code
Accountability for adherence to the code

 

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

    

Under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, all executive officers, directors, and each person who is the beneficial owner of more than 10% of the common stock of a company that files reports pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, are required to report the ownership of such common stock, options, and stock appreciation rights (other than certain cash-only rights) and any changes in that ownership with the Commission. Specific due dates for these reports have been established, and we are required to report, in this Form 10-K/A, any failure to comply therewith during the fiscal year ended December 2008. We believe that all of these filing requirements were satisfied by our executive officers, directors and by the beneficial owners of more than 10% of our common stock. In making this statement, hawse have relied solely on copies of any reporting forms received by it, and upon any written representations received from reporting persons that no Form 5 (Annual Statement of Changes in Beneficial Ownership) was required to be filed under applicable rules of the Commission.

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES

The following table represents the aggregate fees billed for professional audit services rendered to the independent auditor, Lake & Associates CPA’s LLC (“Lake”), for our audit of the annual financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. Audit fees and other fees of auditors are listed as follows:

 

Year Ended December 31   2009(2)   2008(3)    
             
Audit Fees (1)   $66,000   $ 64,000    
Audit-Related Fees (4)   --     --    
Tax Fees (5)   --     --    
All Other Fees (6)   --     --    
Total Accounting Fees and Services  

 

$66,000

  $ 64,000    

 

 

 

  (1) Audit Fees. These are fees for professional services for the audit of our annual financial statements, and for the review of the financial statements included in our filings on Form 10-Q, and for services that are normally provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

 

  (2) The amounts shown in 2009 relate to (i) the audit of our annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, and (ii) the review of the financial statements included in our filings on Form 10-Q for the quarters of 2010.

 

  (3) The amounts shown in 2008 relate to (i) the audit of our annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, and (ii) the review of the financial statements included in our filings on Form 10-Q for the quarters of 2009.

 

  (4)  Audit-Related Fees. These are fees for the assurance and related services reasonably related to the performance of the audit or the review of our financial statements.

 

  (5) Tax Fees. These are fees for professional services with respect to tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning.

 

  (6) All Other Fees. These are fees for permissible work that does not fall within any of the other fee categories, i.e., Audit Fees, Audit-Related Fees, or Tax Fees.

 

 

Pre-Approval Policy for Audit and Non-Audit Services

 

We do not have a standing audit committee, and the full Board performs all functions of an audit committee, including the pre-approval of all audit and non-audit services before we engage an accountant. All of the services rendered to us by Lake & Associates CPA’s LLC were pre-approved by our Board of Directors.

 

We are presently working with its legal counsel to establish formal pre-approval policies and procedures for future engagements of our accountants. The new policies and procedures will be detailed as to the particular service, will require that the Board or an audit committee thereof be informed of each service, and will prohibit the delegation of pre-approval responsibilities to management. It is currently anticipated that our new policy will provide (i) for an annual pre-approval, by the Board or audit committee, of all audit, audit-related and non-audit services proposed to be rendered by the independent auditor for the fiscal year, as specifically described in the auditor's engagement letter, and (ii) that additional engagements of the auditor, which were not approved in the annual pre-approval process, and engagements that are anticipated to exceed previously approved thresholds, will be presented on a case-by-case basis, by the President or Controller, for pre-approval by the Board or audit committee, before management engages the auditors for any such purposes. The new policy and procedures may authorize the Board or audit committee to delegate, to one or more of its members, the authority to pre-approve certain permitted services, provided that the estimated fee for any such service does not exceed a specified dollar amount (to be determined). All pre-approvals shall be contingent on a finding, by the Board, audit committee, or delegate, as the case may be, that the provision of the proposed services is compatible with the maintenance of the auditor's independence in the conduct of its auditing functions. In no event shall any non-audit related service be approved that would result in the independent auditor no longer being considered independent under the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

    (a) On December 31, 2009, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer made an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures. In our opinion, the disclosure controls and procedures are adequate because the systems of controls and procedures are designed to assure, among other items, that 1) recorded transactions are valid; 2) valid transactions are recorded; and 3) transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the respective periods being presented. Moreover, the evaluation did not reveal any significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures.

 

    (b) There have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls since the last evaluation.
