NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Expressed in US Dollars)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Sunrise Real Estate Development Group, Inc. (“CY-SRRE”) was established in the Cayman Islands on April 30, 2004 as a limited liability company. CY-SRRE was wholly owned by Ace Develop Properties Limited, a corporation, (“Ace Develop”), of which Lin Chi-Jung, an individual, is the principal and controlling shareholder. Shanghai Xin Ji Yang Real Estate Consultation Company Limited (“SHXJY”) was established in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) on August 14, 2001 as a limited liability company. SHXJY was originally owned by a Taiwanese company, of which the principal and controlling shareholder was Lin Chi-Jung. On June 8, 2004, all the fully paid up capital of SHXJY was transferred to CY-SRRE. On June 25, 2004 SHXJY and two individuals established a subsidiary, namely, Suzhou Xin Ji Yang Real Estate Consultation Company Limited (“SZXJY”) in the PRC, at which point in time, SHXJY held a 90% equity interest in SZXJY. On December 24, 2004, SHXJY acquired 85% of equity interest in Beijing Xin Ji Yang Real Estate Consultation Company Limited (“BJXJY”), a PRC company incorporated on April 16, 2003 with limited liability. On August 9, 2005, SHXJY sold a 10% equity interest in SZXJY to a company owned by a director of SZXJY, and transferred a 5% equity interest in SZXJY to CY-SRRE. Following the disposal and the transfer, CY-SRRE effectively held an 80% equity interest in SZXJY. On November 24, 2006, CY-SRRE, SHXJY, a director of SZXJY and a third party established a subsidiary, namely, Suzhou Shang Yang Real Estate Consultation Company Limited (“SZSY”) in the PRC, with CY-SRRE holding a 12.5% equity interest, SHXJY holding a 26% equity interest and the director of SZXJY holding a 12.5% equity interest in SZSY. At the date of incorporation, SRRE and the director of SZXJY entered into a voting agreement that SRRE is entitled to exercise the voting right in respect of his 12.5% equity interest in SZSY. Following that, SRRE effectively holds 51% equity interest in SZSY. On September 24, 2007, CY-SRRE sold a 5% equity interest in SZXJY to a company owned by a director of SZXJY. Following the disposal, CY-SRRE effectively holds 75% equity interest in SZXJY. On November 1, 2007, SZXJY established a wholly owned subsidiary, Suzhou Xin Ji Yang Real Estate Brokerage Company Limited (“SZXJYB”) in the PRC as a limited liability company. On May 8, 2008, SHXJY established a wholly owned subsidiary, Kunshan Shang Yang Real Estate Brokerage Company Limited (“KSSY”) in the PRC as a limited liability company.

LIN RAY YANG Enterprise Ltd. (“LRY”) was established in the British Virgin Islands on November 13, 2003 as a limited liability company. LRY was owned by Ace Develop, Planet Technology Corporation (“Planet Tech”) and Systems & Technology Corporation (“Systems Tech”). On February 5, 2004, LRY established a wholly owned subsidiary, Shanghai Shang Yang Real Estate Consultation Company Limited (“SHSY”) in the PRC as a limited liability company. On January 10, 2005, LRY and a PRC third party established a subsidiary, Suzhou Gao Feng Hui Property Management Company Limited (“SZGFH”), in the PRC, with LRY holding 80% of the equity interest in SZGFH. On May 8, 2006, LRY acquired 20% of the equity interest in SZGFH from the third party. Following the acquisition, LRY effectively holds 100% of the equity interest in SZGFH. On September 11, 2007 SHSY and other third parties established a subsidiary, namely, Suzhou Bin Fen Nian Dai Administration Consultancy Company Limited (“SZBFND”) in the PRC, with SHSY holding a 19% equity interest in SZBFND. On September 18, 2008, SHSY established a wholly owned subsidiary, San Ya Shang Yang Real Estate Consultation Company Limited (“SYSY”) in the PRC as a limited liability company.

SHXJY, SZXJY, BJXJY, SHSY, SZGFH, SZSY, SZXJYB, KSSY and SYSY commenced operations in November 2001, June 2004, January 2004, February 2004, January 2005, November 2006, November 2007, May 2008 and September 2008 respectively. Each of SHXJY, SZXJY, BJXJY, SHSY, SZGFH, SZSY, SZXJYB and KSSY has been granted a twenty-year operation period and SYSY has been granted a thirty-year operation period from the PRC, which can be extended with approvals from relevant PRC authorities.

On August 31, 2004, Sunrise Real Estate Group, Inc. (“SRRE”), CY-SRRE and Lin Chi-Jung, an individual and agent for the beneficial shareholder of CY-SRRE, i.e., Ace Develop, entered into an exchange agreement under which SRRE issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock to the beneficial shareholder or its designees, in exchange for all outstanding capital stock of CY-SRRE. The transaction closed on October 5, 2004. Lin Chi-Jung is Chairman of the Board of Directors of SRRE, the President of CY-SRRE and the principal and controlling shareholder of Ace Develop.

Also on August 31, 2004, SRRE, LRY and Lin Chi-Jung, an individual and agent for beneficial shareholders of LRY, i.e., Ace Develop, Planet Tech and Systems Tech, entered into an exchange agreement under which SRRE issued 10,000,000 shares of common stock to the beneficial shareholders, or their designees, in exchange for all outstanding capital stock of LRY. The transaction was closed on October 5, 2004. Lin Chi-Jung is Chairman of the Board of Directors of SRRE, the President of LRY and the principal and controlling shareholder of Ace Develop. Regarding the 10,000,000 shares of common stock of SRRE issued in this transaction, SRRE issued 8,500,000 shares to Ace Develop, 750,000 shares to Planet Tech and 750,000 shares to Systems Tech.

As a result of the acquisition, the former owners of CY-SRRE and LRY hold a majority interest in the combined entity. Generally accepted accounting principles require that in certain circumstances a company whose shareholders retain the majority voting interest in the combined business be treated as the acquirer for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the acquisition has been accounted for as a “reverse acquisition” arrangement whereby CY-SRRE and LRY are deemed to have purchased SRRE. However, SRRE remains the legal entity and the Registrant for Securities and Exchange Commission reporting purposes. All shares and per share data prior to the acquisition have been restated to reflect the stock issuance as a recapitalization of CY-SRRE and LRY.

SRRE was initially incorporated in Texas on October 10, 1996, under the name of Parallax Entertainment, Inc. (“Parallax”). On December 12, 2003, Parallax changed its name to Sunrise Real Estate Development Group, Inc. On April 25, 2006, Sunrise Estate Development Group, Inc. filed Articles of Amendment with the Texas Secretary of State, changing the name of Sunrise Real Estate Development Group, Inc. to Sunrise Real Estate Group, Inc., effective from May 23, 2006.

Figure 1: Company Organization Chart

SRRE and its subsidiaries, namely, CY-SRRE, LRY, SHXJY, SZXJY, SZXJYB, SZSY, KSSY, BJXJY, SHSY, SZGFH and SYSY are sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as “the Company.”

The principal activities of the Company are property brokerage services, real estate marketing services, property leasing services and property management services in the PRC.

NOTE 2 –SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Accounting and Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America that include the financial statements of SRRE and its subsidiaries, CY-SRRE, LRY, SHXJY, SZXJY, SZXJYB, SZSY, KSSY, BJXJY, SHSY, SZGFH and SYSY. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Going Concern

The Company’s financial statements are prepared according to the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has accumulated losses of $9,718,291 for the year ended March 31, 2011. The Company’s net working capital deficiency and significant accumulated losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

However, management believes that the Company is able to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain successful operations in respect of the agency sales and property management operations. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

The functional currency of SRRE, CY-SRRE and LRY is United States Dollars (“US$”) and the financial records are maintained and the financial statements prepared in US $. The functional currency of SHXJY, SZXJY, SZXJYB, SZSY, KSSY, BJXJY, SHSY, SZGFH and SYSY is Renminbi (“RMB”) and the financial records are maintained and the financial statements prepared in RMB.

Foreign currency transactions during the period are translated into each company’s denominated currency at the exchange rates ruling at the transaction dates. Gain and loss resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated statement of operations. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated into each company’s denominated currency at period end exchange rates. All exchange differences are dealt with in the consolidated statements of operations.

The financial statements of the Company’s operations based outside of the United States have been translated into US$ in accordance with ASC 830. Management has determined that the functional currency for each of the Company’s foreign operations is its applicable local currency. When translating functional currency financial statements into US$, period-end exchange rates are applied to the consolidated balance sheets, while average period rates are applied to consolidated statements of operations. Translation gains and losses are recorded in translation reserve as a component of shareholders’ equity.

The rates as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are US$1: RMB6.5564 and US$1: RMB6.6227, respectively.

Property, Plant, Equipment and Depreciation

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

	Estimated Useful Life (in years)

Furniture and fixtures		5-10
Computer and office equipment		5
Motor vehicles		5
Properties		20

Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged directly to the statement of operations as incurred. Additions and improvements are capitalized. When assets are disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation thereon are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the statement of operations.

Investment property

Investment properties are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets over the estimated useful lives of 20 years.

Significant additions that extend property lives are capitalized and are depreciated over their respective estimated useful lives. Routine maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. The Company reviews its investment property for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an investment property may not be recoverable.

Goodwill

ASC 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” requires that goodwill be tested for impairment on an annual basis (December 31 for us) and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. These events or circumstances could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, operating performance indicators, competition, sale or disposition of a significant portion of a company. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the determination of the fair value of a company. The fair value of a company is estimated using a discounted cash flow methodology. This requires significant judgments including estimation of future cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term rate of growth for our business, the useful life over which cash flows will occur, and the determination of our weighted average cost of capital. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment for a company.

Revenue Recognition

Agency commission revenue from property brokerage is recognized when the property developer and the buyer complete a property sales transaction, and the property developer grants confirmation to us to be able to invoice them accordingly. The time when we receive the commission is normally at the time when the property developer receives from the buyer a portion of the sales proceeds in accordance with the terms of the relevant property sales agreement, or the balance of the bank loan to the buyer has been funded, or recognized under the sales schedule or other specific items of agency sales agreement with developer. At no point does the Company handle any monetary transactions nor act as an escrow intermediary between the developer and the buyer.

Revenue from marketing consultancy services is recognized when services are provided to clients, fees associated to services are fixed or determinable, and collection of the fees is assured.

Rental revenue from property management and rental business is recognized on a straight-line basis according to the time pattern of the leasing agreements.

The Company accounts for underwriting sales in accordance with ASC 976-605 “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate” (SFAS 66). The commission revenue on underwriting sales is recognized when the criteria in SFAS No. 66 have been met, generally when title is transferred and the Company no longer has substantial continuing involvement with the real estate asset sold. If the Company provides certain rent guarantees or other forms of support where the maximum exposure to loss exceeds the gain, it defers the related commission income and expenses by applying the deposit method. In future periods, the commission income and related expenses are recognized when the remaining maximum exposure to loss is reduced below the amount of income deferred.

All revenues represent gross revenues less sales and business tax.

Net Earnings per Common Share

The Company computes net earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share.” Under the provisions of ASC 260, basic net earnings per share is computed by dividing the net earnings available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted net earnings per share recognizes common stock equivalents, however; potential common stock in the diluted EPS computation is excluded in net loss periods, as their effect is anti-dilutive.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax liabilities or assets at the end of each period are determined using the tax rate expected to be in effect when taxes are actually paid or recovered. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

We continue to account for income tax contingencies using a benefit recognition model. Beginning January 1, 2007, if we considered that a tax position is 'more likely than not' of being sustained upon audit, based solely on the technical merits of the position, we recognize the benefit. We measure the benefit by determining the amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement, presuming that the tax position is examined by the appropriate taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. These assessments can be complex and we often obtain assistance from external advisors.

Under the benefit recognition model, if our initial assessment fails to result in the recognition of a tax benefit, we regularly monitor our position and subsequently recognize the tax benefit if there are changes in tax law or analogous case law that sufficiently raise the likelihood of prevailing on the technical merits of the position to more likely than not; if the statute of limitations expires; or if there is a completion of an audit resulting in a settlement of that tax year with the appropriate agency.

Uncertain tax positions, represented by liabilities on our balance sheet, are now classified as current only when we expect to pay cash within the next 12 months. Interest and penalties, if any, continue to be recorded in Provision for taxes on income and are classified on the balance sheet with the related tax liability.

Historically, our policy had been to account for income tax contingencies based on whether we determined our tax position to be 'probable' under current tax law of being sustained, as well as an analysis of potential outcomes under a given set of facts and circumstances. In addition, we previously considered all tax liabilities as current once the associated tax year was under audit.

Segment information

The Company believes that it operates in one business segment. Management views the business as consisting of several revenue streams; however it is not possible to attribute assets or indirect costs to the individual streams other than direct expenses.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On August 17, 2010, the FASB and IASB issued an ED on lease accounting. The ED, released by the FASB as a proposed ASU, creates a new accounting model for both lessees and lessors and eliminates the concept of operating leases. The proposed ASU, if finalized, would converge the FASB’s and IASB’s accounting for lease contracts in most significant areas.

In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The guidance requires new disclosures on the transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 (quoted prices in active market for identical assets or liabilities) and Level 2 (significant other observable inputs) of the fair value measurement hierarchy, including the reasons and the timing of the transfers. Additionally, the guidance requires a roll forward of activities on purchases, sales, issuance, and settlements of the assets and liabilities measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 fair value measurements). The guidance became effective for us with the reporting period beginning January 1, 2010, except for the disclosure on the roll forward activities for Level 3 fair value measurements, which will become effective for us with the reporting period beginning July 1, 2011. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued guidance on revenue recognition that will become effective for us beginning July 1, 2010, with earlier adoption permitted. Under the new guidance on arrangements that include software elements, tangible products that have software components that are essential to the functionality of the tangible product will no longer be within the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance, and software-enabled products will now be subject to other relevant revenue recognition guidance. Additionally, the FASB issued guidance on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables that are outside the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance. Under the new guidance, when vendor specific objective evidence or third party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, a best estimate of the selling price is required to separate deliverables and allocate arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. The new guidance includes new disclosure requirements on how the application of the relative selling price method affects the timing and amount of revenue recognition.

On July 1, 2009, we adopted guidance issued by the FASB that changes the accounting and reporting for non-controlling interests. Non-controlling interests are to be reported as a component of equity separate from the parent’s equity, and purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in a change in control are to be accounted for as equity transactions. In addition, net income attributable to a non-controlling interest is to be included in net income and, upon a loss of control, the interest sold, as well as any interest retained, is to be recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in net income. Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance on the consolidation of variable interest entities, which is effective for us beginning July 1, 2010. The new guidance requires revised evaluations of whether entities represent variable interest entities, ongoing assessments of control over such entities, and additional disclosures for variable interests. We believe adoption of this new guidance will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of the above statements will have a material effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

The information contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q is not a complete description of our business or the risks associated with an investment in our common stock. We urge you to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, including but not limited to our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, which discusses our business in greater detail.

In this report we make, and from time to time we otherwise make, written and oral statements regarding our business and prospects, such as projections of future performance, statements of management’s plans and objectives, forecasts of market trends, and other matters that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

In addition to other matters identified or described by us from time to time in filings with the SEC, there are several important factors that could cause our future results to differ materially from historical results or trends, results anticipated or planned by us, or results that are reflected from time to time in any forward-looking statement. Some of these important factors, but not necessarily all important factors, include those relating to our ability to raise money and grow our business, and potential difficulties in integrating new acquisitions with our current operations, especially as they pertain to foreign markets and market conditions. Please also refer to the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

OVERVIEW

In October 2004, the former shareholders of Sunrise Real Estate Development Group, Inc. (Cayman Islands) (“CY-SRRE”) and LIN RAY YANG Enterprise Ltd. (“LRY”) acquired a majority of our voting interests in a share exchange. Before the completion of the share exchange, SRRE had no continuing operations, and its historical results would not be meaningful if combined with the historical results of CY-SRRE, LRY and their subsidiaries.

As a result of the acquisition, the former owners of CY-SRRE and LRY hold a majority interest in the combined entity. Generally accepted accounting principles require in certain circumstances that a company whose shareholders retain the majority voting interest in the combined business be treated as the acquirer for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the acquisition has been accounted for as a “reverse acquisition” arrangement whereby CY-SRRE and LRY are deemed to have purchased SRRE. However, SRRE remains the legal entity and the Registrant for Securities and Exchange Commission reporting purposes. The historical financial statements prior to October 5, 2004 are those of CY-SRRE and LRY and their subsidiaries. All equity information and per share data prior to the acquisition have been restated to reflect the stock issuance as a recapitalization of CY-SRRE and LRY.

SRRE and its subsidiaries, namely, CY-SRRE, LRY, Shanghai Xin Ji Yang Real Estate Consultation Company Limited (“SHXJY”), Suzhou Xin Ji Yang Real Estate Consultation Company Limited (“SZXJY”), Beijing Xin Ji Yang Real Estate Consultation Company Limited (“BJXJY”), Shanghai Shangyang Real Estate Consultation Company Limited (“SHSY”), Suzhou Gao Feng Hui Property Management Company Limited (“SZGFH”), Suzhou Shang Yang Real Estate Consultation Company Limited (“SZSY”), Suzhou Xin Ji Yang Real Estate Brokerage Company Limited(“SZXJYB”), Kunshan Shang Yang Real Estate Brokerage Company Limited (“KSSY”) and San Ya Shang Yang Real Estate Consultation Company Limited (“SYSY”) are sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as “the Company,” “our,” or “us”.

The principal activities of the Company are real estate agency sales, real estate marketing services, real estate investments, property leasing services and property management services in the PRC.

On January 21, 2011, and January 22, 2011, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Good Speed Services Limited (“Good Speed”) and Better Time International Limited (“Better Time”) respectively, to issue 2.5 million shares to each company for US $500 thousand. This agreement, subject to standard closing terms and conditions, was scheduled to close on or before March 20, 2011. On March 16th an extension was signed between SRRE and Better Time to extend the closing date to on or before July 1, 2011. On March 18th an extension was signed between SRRE and Good Speed to extend the closing date to on or before July 5, 2011.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Our major business was agency sales, whereby our Chinese subsidiaries contracted with property developers to market and sell their newly developed property units. For these services we earned a commission fee calculated as a percentage of the sales prices. We have focused our sales on the whole China market, especially in secondary cities. To expand our agency business, we have established subsidiaries in Shanghai, Suzhou, Beijing, Kunshan and Hainan, and branches in NanChang, YangZhou, NanJing, ChongQing and ShangQiu

During the year of 2005 and 2006, SZGFH entered into leasing agreements with certain buyers of the Sovereign Building underwriting project to lease the properties for them. These leasing agreements on these properties are for 62% of the floor space that was sold to third party buyers. In accordance with the leasing agreements, the owners of the properties can have a rental return of 8.5% and 8.8% per annum for a period of 5 years and 8 years, respectively. In regards to the leasing agreements, we have negotiated with the buyers and have lowered the annual rental return rate for the remaining leasing period from 8.5% for 5 years to 5.8%, and from 8.8% for 8 years to 6%.As of March 31, 2011 67% of the buyers agreed upon the lowered rate and 22% of the buyers agreed to cancel the leasing agreements. The leasing period started in the second quarter of 2006, and the Company has the right to sublease the leased properties to cover these lease commitments in the leasing period. As of March 31, 2011, 131 sub-leasing agreements have been signed and the area of these sub-leasing agreements represented 88% of the total area with these lease commitments.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of the above statements will have a material effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Critical accounting policies for us include revenue recognition, net earnings per common share, income taxes and segment information.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from marketing consultancy services is recognized when services are provided to clients, fees associated to services are fixed or determinable, and collection of the fees is assured.

Rental revenue from property management and rental business is recognized on a straight-line basis according to the time pattern of the leasing agreements.

All revenues represent gross revenues less sales and business tax.

Net Earnings per Common Share

The Company computes net earnings per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” Under the provisions of SFAS No. 128, basic net earnings per share is computed by dividing the net earnings available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted net earnings per share recognizes common stock equivalents, however; potential common stock in the diluted EPS computation is excluded in net loss periods, as their effect is anti-dilutive.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax liabilities or assets at the end of each period are determined using the tax rate expected to be in effect when taxes are actually paid or recovered. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Segment information

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We provide the following discussion and analyses of our changes in financial condition and results of operations for the first quarter, 2011, with comparisons to the first quarter, 2010.

Revenue

The following table shows the net revenue detail by line of business:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2011		% to total		2010		% to total		% change
Agency sales		1,855,354		71		3,771,921		80		(51	)
Underwriting sales		159,666		6		310,745		7		(49	)
Property management		589,604		23		616,853		13		(4	)
Net revenue		2,604,624		100		4,699,519		100		(45	)

The net revenue in the first quarter, 2011 was $2,604,624, which was an decrease of 45% from $4,699,519in the first quarter of 2010. In the first quarter of 2011, agency sales represented 71% of net revenue, underwriting sales represented 6% and property management represented 23%. The decrease in net revenue in the first quarter of 2011 was mainly due to the increase in our agency and underwriting sales.

Agency sales

Agency sales represented 71% of our net revenue in the first quarter of 2011 and a decreased of 51% in agency sales revenue compared with same period in 2010. The primary reason was that there were less agency sales projects contributing the net revenue to the Company, compared to the same period in 2010.

Because of our diverse market locations, the risk of market fluctuations has been minimized on our business operations in agency sales in 2011, and we are seeking stable growth in our agency sales business in 2011. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so.

Underwriting Sales

In February 2004, SHSY entered into an agreement to underwrite an office building in Suzhou, known as Suzhou Sovereign Building. Being the sole distribution agent for this office building, SHSY committed to a sales target of $56.53 million. Property underwriting sales are comparatively a higher risk business model compared to our pure commission based agency business. Under this higher risk business model, the Underwriting Model, our commission is not calculated as a percentage of the selling price; instead, our commission revenue is equivalent to the price difference between the final selling price and underwriting price. We negotiate with a developer for an underwriting price that is as low as possible, with the guarantee that all or a majority of the units will be sold by a specific date. In return, we are given the flexibility to establish the final selling price and earn the price difference between the final selling price and the underwriting price. The risk of this kind of arrangement is that if there are any unsold units on the expiration date of the agreement, then we may have to purchase the unsold property units from the developer at the underwriting price and hold them in our inventory or as investments.

We started selling units in the Sovereign Building in January, 2005. As of December 31, 2006, we have achieved the sales target by selling 46,779 square meters with a total sales price of $70.45 million. However, there are still unsold properties with floor area of 314 square meters, which represents 1% of total floor area underwritten, as of December 31, 2006. As of the end of February, 2007, we have sold or acquired all of the units in the building, and we have achieved the sales target by selling 47,093 square meters with a total sales price of $75.96 million.

The Company accounts for underwriting sales in accordance with the FASB guidance of ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”. The commission revenue on underwriting sales is recognized when the criteria in ASC 360 have been met, generally when title is transferred and the Company no longer has substantial continuing involvement with the real estate asset sold. If the Company provides certain rent guarantees or other forms of support where the maximum exposure to loss exceeds the gain, it defers the related commission income and expenses by applying the deposit method. In future periods, the commission income and related expenses are recognized when the remaining maximum exposure to loss is reduced below the amount of income deferred. In early 2009, the Company renegotiated the rental payments with buyers. As of March 31, 2011, 67% of the buyers agreed upon the lowered rate and 22% of the buyers agreed to cancel the leasing agreements. Based on the renegotiated agreements, $159,666 of the deferred revenue on underwriting sales was recognized in the first quarter of 2011.

Property Management

We expect that the income from the sub-leasing business will be on a stable growth trend in 2011 and that it can cover the lease commitments in the leasing period as a whole. However there can be no assurance that we will achieve these objectives.

Cost of Revenue

The following table shows the cost of revenue detail by line of business:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2011		% to total		2010		% to total		% change
Agency sales		1,186,664		68		1,259,242		62		(6	)
Underwriting sales		23,532		1		72,653		4		(68	)
Property management		529,145		30		684,817		34		(23	)
Cost of revenue		1,739,341		100		2,016,712		100		(14	)

The cost of revenue in the first quarter of 2011 was $1,739,341, a decrease of 14% from $2,016,712 in the same period in 2010. In the first quarter of 2011, agency sales represented 68% of cost of revenue, underwriting sales represented 1% and property management represented 30%. The decrease in cost of revenue in first quarter of 2011 was mainly due to an overall decrease in all 3 operations.

Agency sales

The cost of revenue for agency sales in the first quarter, 2011 was $1,186,664, a decrease of 6% from $1,259,249 in the same period in 2010. This decrease was mainly due to the decrease in our commissions and consulting fees in the first quarter of 2011, compared to the same period in 2010, the decrease of such expenses was $265,383 and $101,372 respectively. However, these decreases in expense are offset by the increase of $166,272 in marketing expense.

Underwriting Sales

The cost of underwriting sales represents selling costs, such as staff costs and advertising expenses, associated with underwriting sales.

Property management

In connection with our leasing guarantees to third party buyers in the Sovereign Building, an accrual for onerous contracts was recognized equal to the difference between the present value of the sublease income and the present value of the associated lease expense at the appropriate discount rate. The accrual for onerous contracts was $1,694 as of March 31, 2011 and $30,712 as of December 31, 2010.

Operating Expenses

The following table shows operating expenses detail by line of business:

	Three months ended March 31,

Property management		47,447		14		30,862		8		54
Operating expenses		338,904		100		368,517		100		(8	)

The operating expenses in the first quarter, 2011 were $338,904, a decrease of 8% from $368,517, in the same period in 2010. In the first quarter of 2011, agency sales represented 86% of operating expenses and property management represented 14%. The decrease in operating expenses in the first quarter of 2011 was mainly due to the decrease in our agency sales.

Agency sales

The operating expenses for agency sales in the first quarter of 2011 were $291,457 which decreased 13% from $337,655 in the same period in 2010. This increase was mainly due to the decrease in consulting fees of $101,091

This increase was mainly due to the increase in depreciation expense and rental expense of $19,016 and $18,507 compared to the same period in 2010, respectively.

Interest Expenses

Interest expenses in the first quarter, 2011 were $192,975 increasing 30% from $148,503 in the same period in 2009. The interest expenses were mainly incurred for bank loans and promissory notes payable.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In 2011, our principal sources of cash were revenues from our agency sales and property management business. Most of our cash resources were used to fund our revenue related expenses, such as salaries and commissions paid to the sales force, daily administrative expenses and the maintenance of regional offices, and the repayments of our bank loans and promissory notes.

We ended the period with a cash position of $2,219,972.

The Company’s operating activities used cash in the amount of $728,596, which was primarily attributable to the payment of income tax.

The Company’s investing activities used cash resources of $5,936, which was primarily attributable to the acquisition of property, plant and equipment.

The Company’s financing activities used cash resources of $13,641, which was primarily attributable to the repayment to director.

The potential cash needs for 2011 will be the repayments of our bank loans and promissory notes, the rental guarantee payments and promissory deposits for various property projects.

If our business otherwise grows more rapidly than we currently predict, we plan to raise funds through the issuance of additional shares of our equity securities in one or more public or private offerings. We will also consider raising funds through credit facilities obtained with lending institutions. There can be no guarantee that we will be able to obtain such funds through the issuance of debt or equity that are with terms satisfactory to management and our board of directors.

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.
