Jingwei International Limited and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Stated in US dollars thousands, except per share amounts)
(Unaudited)

Note 1  CORPORATE INFORMATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Jingwei International Limited (“Jingwei”), its subsidiaries and companies it controls through contractual agreements in the form of variable interest entities (“VIEs”) ,which include Jingwei International Investments Limited (“Jingwei BVI”), Jingwei International Investment (HK) Ltd. (“Jingwei HK”), Jingwei Hengtong Technology (ShenZhen) Co. Ltd (“Jingwei Hengtong”), Shenzhen Jingwei Communication Co., Ltd. (“Jingwei Communication”), New Yulong Information Technology Co. Ltd. (“New Yulong IT”), New Yulong Software Technology Development Co. Ltd. (“New Yulong Software”), Beijing New Media Advertising Co. Ltd. (“Beijing New Media”), Shenzhen Xinguochuang Information Technology Company Limited (“Xinguochuang”), Shanghai Haicom Telecommunication Technology Limited ("Haicom"), and Jiangsu Liandong Communication Ltd. ("Jiangsu Liandong"). Jingwei International Limited, its subsidiaries and VIEs are collectively referred to as the “Company”. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Corporation Information

The Company, formerly known as Neoview Holdings Inc. (“Neoview”), was established in Nevada on November 17, 2004, as a public shell company. On May 16, 2007, Neoview and Synergy Business Consulting LLC, a principal stockholder of Neoview, entered into a share exchange agreement with the stockholders of Jingwei BVI. Pursuant to the share exchange agreement, Neoview acquired all of Jingwei BVI’s issued and outstanding shares from Jingwei BVI’s stockholders in exchange for the issuance to Jingwei BVI’s stockholders of 11,554,000 shares of Neoview’s common stock, constituting 86.4% of outstanding common shares of Neoview on a fully-diluted basis.

As a result of this share exchange transaction, Jingwei BVI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Neoview. Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), the share exchange transaction was treated as a reverse acquisition, with Jingwei BVI as the accounting acquirer and Neoview as the acquired party.

Immediately following the closing of the merger, Neoview changed its name to Jingwei International Limited (“the Company”), and consummated a private placement of 3,395,000 units on May 16, 2007, each consisting of one (1) share of its common stock and 0.3 of a warrant to purchase one (1) share of its common stock, at a price per unit of $5.00 for for aggregate gross proceeds of $16,975,000.

Jingwei BVI was incorporated in British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) in May 2006, and is a holding company without any operation.

Jingwei HK, a wholly owned subsidiary of Jingwei BVI, was established on October 31, 2006 in Hong Kong. It is engaged in telecommunication equipment sales, software development and e-commerce.

Jingwei Hengtong, a wholly owned subsidiary of Jingwei HK, was established in People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) on February 8, 2007. It is engaged in computer hardware and software development, and business consulting services.

On February 8, 2007, Jingwei Hengtong entered into a series of contractual agreements (“Contractual Agreements”) for a ten-year term with Jingwei Communication, a PRC company established on May 8, 2001 to develop computer software and telecommunication equipments, to operate call centers, as well as to provide internet and mobile value added services. Pursuant to the Contractual Agreements, Jingwei Hengtong has agreed to exclusively provide to Jingwei Communication technology consulting services, and bear all of Jingwei Communication’s operating costs, in exchange for all of its income from the business operations. Jingwei Hengtong has also agreed to guarantee Jingwei Communication’s performance of its obligations under contracts, agreements and transactions between Jingwei Communication and third party customers. In return, Jingwei Communication had pledged its accounts receivables and all of its assets to Jingwei Hengtong. Moreover, the stockholders of Jingwei Communication have also entered into pledge agreements with Jingwei Hengtong, pursuant to which they agreed to pledge all their rights and interests, including voting rights, in favor of Jingwei Hengtong. Jingwei Hengtong was also granted an option to acquire the equity interests of Jingwei Communication within 10 years for a purchase price equal to its shareholders’ original paid-in price or the lowest price permissible under PRC laws. Finally, Jingwei Hentong had made an interest-free loan to Jingwei Communications to fund its capitalization, which can only be repaid upon the shareholders of Jingwei Communications transferring their equity interests to Jingwei Hengtong.

The noncontrolling interest does not change since 100% of all income and losses are allocated to the Company in accordance with the Contractual Agreements.  Since there is no dividend distribution to noncontrolling interest, its balance changed between periods according to the exchange rate during that period.

PRC regulations prohibit direct foreign ownership of entities engaged in certain restricted businesses, including the provision of value-added telecommunications services in the PRC where certain licenses are required for the provision of such services. To comply with PRC laws and regulations, the Company engages in such businesses through contractual commitments with the VIEs, principally Jingwei Communication and the subsidiaries directly or indirectly controlled by Jingwei Communication, included New Yulong IT, New Yulong Software, Jiangsu Liandong, Beijing New Media, Xinguochuang and Haicom.

New Yulong IT, a wholly owned subsidiary of Jingwei Communication, was established on January 4, 1999 in Shenzhen, China. It mainly conducts mobile value added services, software development and computer information system integration.

New Yulong Software, wholly owned by Jingwei Communication directly and indirectly through New Yulong IT, was established on June 14, 2005 in Shenzhen, China. It is engaged in software development and computer information system integration.

Jiangsu Liandong, a wholly owned subsidiary of Jingwei Communication, was established on December 11, 2009 in Suqian, China. It is engaged in software development and computer information system integration.

Beijing New Media, a wholly owned subsidiary of New Yulong IT, was established on July 23, 2008 in Beijing, China. It is engaged in creating, planning and handling advertising, as well as providing branding strategy and sales promotions for its clients.

Xinguochuang, a wholly owned subsidiary of New Yulong IT, was established on April 29, 2009, in Shenzhen, China. It is engaged in software development, computer information system integration, and domestic and international trade.

 On November 9, 2010, Xinguochuang completed the acquisition of 100% equity interest of Haicom, a corporation registered in Shanghai, China that provides internet and mobile value added service platforms to telecommunication operators in more than ten provinces in China.

Because the above Contractual Agreements,, which assigned all of Jingwei Communications equity owners' rights and obligations to Jingwei Hengtong the equity owners of Jingwei Communications lacked the ability to make decisions that have a significant effect on Jingwei Communications and its subsidiaries’ operations, and Jingwei Hengtong was entitled to the profits from the operation of Jingwei Communications and its subsidiaries, and assumed all of the residual benefits. Because Jingwei Hengtong and its indirect parent, Jingwei International Limited, are the sole interest holders of Jingwei Communications, the Company consolidates Jingwei Communications and its subsidiaries from its inception, consistent with the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 810-10.

Description of Business

The Company is one of the leading providers of data mining and interactive marketing and software services in the PRC. The Company's services include market segmentation, customer trend and churn analysis, fraud detection and direct marketing services such as telemarketing, direct mailing and wireless value added services. The Company also operates a software services business, which provides a broad range of billing systems, provisioning solutions, decision support and customer relationship management systems for the leading mobile telecommunication carriers in the PRC.

Note 2  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a)
Basis of presentation and consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries have been prepared in conformity with prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company used the purchase method to consolidate Jingwei Communication, with the current assets and liabilities recorded at fair value which approximated their historic book value on February 8, 2007, the effective date (“effective date”) of the Contractual Agreements. The fair value of the acquired net assets of Jingwei Communication was $6.6 million on the effective date, after eliminating all the intercompany transaction and balances, and was recognized as noncontrolling interest on the consolidated balance sheet. The noncontrolling interest changes only for translation adjustments since 100% of all income and losses are allocated to the Company in accordance with the Contractual Agreements and there are no dividend distributions to noncontrolling interest. The noncontrolling interest amounted to $7.9 million and $7.7 million as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The change in amount was the result of foreign currency translation adjustment.

Certain information and footnote disclosures, which are normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, have been condensed or omitted. The interim consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, previously filed with the SEC.

 
5

 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2011, its consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the six months and three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, as applicable, have been made. The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

b)
Use of estimates

In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements, as well as the amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant estimates based on management's best estimation include, but are not limited to, the valuation of account receivables and other receivables, inventories, the estimation on useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, the valuation of options, and allowance for deferred tax assets.

c) 
Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying values of the Group’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, prepayments and deposits, account payable, accruals and other payables, and loan from a stockholder approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of such instruments.

d)
Business combination

For a business combination with acquisition date on or after January 1, 2009, the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree were recognized at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date. In a business combination achieved in stages, the identifiable assets and liabilities, as well as the noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, were recognized at the full amounts of their fair values. In a bargain purchase in which the total acquisition-date fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired exceeds the fair value of the consideration transferred plus any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, that excess in earnings was recognized as a gain attributable to the Company.

 Deferred tax liability and asset were recognized for the deferred tax consequences of differences between the tax bases and the recognized values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740-10.

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired in business combinations. Goodwill is not amortized; rather, impairment tests are performed at least annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. If impairment exists, goodwill is immediately written off to its fair value and the best estimate of that loss is recognized in those financial statements.

e) 
Recently enacted accounting standards

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2010-13, Compensation—Stock Compensation (ACS Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades. The ASU codifies the consensus reached in Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 09-J. The amendments to the Codification clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity shares trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity.

The amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The amendments are to be applied by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings. The adoption does not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

 
6

 

In December 2010, FASB issued revised guidance on “When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts.” The revised guidance specifies that an entity with reporting units that have carrying amounts that are zero or negative is required to assess whether it is more likely than not that the reporting units’ goodwill is impaired. If the entity determines that it is more likely than not that the goodwill of one or more of its reporting units is impaired, the entity should perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test for those reporting unit(s). Any resulting goodwill impairment should be recorded as a cumulative-effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings in the period of adoption. Any goodwill impairments occurring after the initial adoption of the revised guidance should be included in earnings as required by Section 350-20-35. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is not permitted. The adoption does not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, “’ Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs”, which is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income”.

Note 6     INCOME TAX EXPENSE

United States

Jingwei International Limited is subject to the US federal tax at tax rate of 34%. No provision for US federal income taxes has been made as the Company had no US taxable income for the periods presented, and the earnings will be permanently reinvested in the PRC.

BVI

Jingwei BVI was incorporated in the BVI and, under the current laws of the BVI, it is not subject to income tax.

Hong Kong

Jingwei HK was incorporated in Hong Kong and is subject to Hong Kong profits tax. Jingwei HK is subject to Hong Kong taxation on its activities conducted in Hong Kong and income arising in or derived from Hong Kong. The applicable statutory tax rate is 16.5%.

PRC

The applicable income tax rates in 2011 for the Company’s PRC operating companies, New Yulong IT, New Yulong Software, Jingwei Hengtong, Jingwei Communication, Beijing New Media, Xinguochuang and Jiangsu Liandong, Haicom, are described as follows: New Yulong IT and Haicom are qualified as high-tech software enterprises and entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 15%, which is subject to government review and approval every three years. New Yulong Software, Jingwei Hengtong, Jingwei Communication are all entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 24%, 22% and 22% respectively in 2011. Jiangsu Liandong is subject to 25% income tax rate in 2011. Beijing New Media as a small business taxpayer and taxed on a deemed basis, i.e. 2.5% of its reported total revenue, due to its small business status. Xinguochuang was approved for its application for preferential enterprise income tax treatment in 2010, which exempted the entity from income tax in 2010 and 2011, and entitled it to 12.5% for the subsequent three years and 25% thereafter.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recognized an income tax expense of $58 on income before income taxes of $2,909, representing an effective income tax rate of 2.0%, as compared to an income tax expense of $149 on income before income taxes of $3,648, representing an effective income tax rate of 4.1% for the same period in 2010. The significantly lower effective tax rate than the statutory income tax rate in the current period is attributed to two factors: 1. To make the best use of Xinguochuang’s preferential tax status starting from 2010, the Company has shifted a significant portion of business operations from New Yulong Software and other affiliates to Xinguochuang, resulting in a significant tax saving in 2010 and in 2011; 2. the Company recorded deferred tax benefits of $131 in the current period.

Business Overview

We are one of the leading providers of data mining, interactive marketing and software services in the PRC. We have established multiple anchor customers in both the Telecom & Power sectors with long-term relationships since 2001. These relationships are expected to continue and further strengthen in 2011 as result of our technical competency and services leadership which continued to bring high value to the business of these customers. We offer a rich portfolio of business intelligence and interactive marketing services powered by a proprietary database with more than 400 million consumer profiles and a complementary set of Data Mining and Business Intelligence tools to enable customers to reach their targeted Chinese consumers. Services include market segmentation, customer churn, fraud detection, trend analysis, self-service reporting, database marketing, contact center services, mobile value-added services (MVAS) and multi-media, multi-channel advertising. In addition to the deployment of our “mobile application store” platform at China Telecom and the pilot platform in China Unicom in 2010, we have successfully designed and deployed mobile value-added services ("MVAS") Society Channel and marketing support system for China Unicom in Guangdong, Zhejiang and Fujian provinces, to leverage our core competences in data mining and interactive marketing to help them effectively operate and expand the society distribution channels on partnership and revenue sharing basis for mutual benefits. This will be another strategic growth initiative for the Company in 2011.

Our services assist customers in improving product development and marketing effectiveness, increase operational efficiency and profitability, helps identify new market trends, target audiences and opportunities, delivers effective marketing messages to targeted consumers and provides interactive, proactive and personalized marketing and advertising for optimal results. We have sharpened our focus to further develop our interactive marketing platform and integrated mobile value added service platforms with targeted outbound sales campaigns via mobile phone advertising and value added services, as well as customer service/order fulfillment using online stores and at call centers throughout the country.

Along-with our core data mining and interactive marketing services segment, we also operate a software services business, with proven leadership in quality billing, Business Intelligence, Provisioning Support, Decision Support, Operations Support and Customer Relationship Management software applications, primarily for China’s leading telecommunication services carriers. The software services business also strengthens sales opportunities for our high margin interactive marketing and data mining platform, and allows us to enhance our customer database.  At present, we have achieved leadership position in the deployment of billing and OSS solutions to support IPTV rollout for China Telecom in 23 out of the country’s 31 provinces. And, through our channel partners, we have also deployed our billing and OSS solution for telecom carriers in overseas countries including Africa, Middle East and Asia.

Currently, we offer 36 data mining and software platforms registered with the Shenzhen Bureau of Science, Technology and Information and National Government. And our intellectual property portfolio is covered by 30 patents issued by National Intellectual Property Administration of the People’s Republic of China. When these patents were registered with the appropriate authority, we receive a certificate with respect to protected intellectual property in such software; we then license the software to the customers for a usage fee as well as an optional annual maintenance fee after the standard warranty period. Our software services streamline back-office operations for the customers, enable accurate billing and provisioning, improve business operational efficiency, as well as enable intimate and personalized relationship management for their end-customers.

In the data mining segment, we presently own and manage a database containing detailed biographical, demographic and purchasing information on over 400 million Chinese consumers and a selected group of SMEs. We believe our database is one of the largest in China, and that it would be difficult for competitors to duplicate. The breadth of our database affords us the ability to conduct a wide range of interactive marketing and data mining processes. Once a target audience is identified through data mining analysis, we assist our customers in the promotion and marketing of new products and services through telemarketing, direct marketing and mobile text and interactive advertising. We share in the revenues derived from consumer purchases resulting from our marketing and promotion activities. Within our data mining services operations, we also offer carriers a vast range of MVAS. Unlike our competitors who mainly use carriers’ networks simply as a distribution channel, we work with  telecommunications carriers to design, build, operate and manage MVAS platforms jointly with them to offer to their customers under their own brands; based on which we have a share of the revenue derived from the services provided to their customers

The primary geographic focus of our operations is in China, with presence in more than 20 cities, where we derive most of our revenues. We conduct our business operations through Jingwei Hengtong, a wholly-owned subsidiary company of Jingwei that became the primary beneficiary of Jingwei Communication via various contractual agreements. Both companies are registered in China.

Our future plans are to stay sharply focused to capitalize on the favorable industry trends to grow our business.  By leveraging our core competence and the multiple long term relationships with our clients in the telecommunications and power sectors, we are confident of our unique and competitive position to benefit from the significant growth waves unfolding in China.

Business Outlook and Other Recent Developments

The Company has delivered strong performance in the first half of 2011 in sales, compared to the same period last year.  In data mining, we have expanded greatly our product offering in 3G related MVAS business, and have seen a significant revenue contribution from this part of the business in the current period. With the rising demands from consumers, we expect this business to continue to contribute to the sales and margin improvement of the data mining segment through 2011.
 
In the first quarter of 2011, the Company signed a strategic business partnering agreement with Zhejiang China Unicom to leverage Jingwei's data mining, interactive marketing and software service expertise to design, develop and operate Zhejiang China Unicom's mobile value-added services ("MVAS") Society Channel and marketing support system, to support its over 80,000 society channel depots in Zhejiang province, for optimal marketing results. With its early success in signing up subscribers for 3G service, China Unicom publicly announced a strategic focus to develop society channels at provincial levels, so as to continue to build up its lead in the 3G service. With the deployment of this platform and participation in its daily operation, Jingwei will enjoy a share of the revenues derived from sales and service contracts generated from the channel depots supported by the system. In the second quarter of 2011, the Company successfully deployed this product in Fujian province, and is current operating the system with early success. Furthermore, the Company is in discussion with several other provincial operators to leverage similar capabilities to benefit their local operation.
 
In the software services segment, in the first half of 2011 the Company continued to expand the deployment of internet protocol TV (“IPTV”) overseas through our business partner, as well as successfully completed another mobile application store platform development for a major telecom operator. It also took significant system integration contracts to develop a web-based integrated governmental service platform for local governments in Guangdong province. In addition, we have secured contracts to work with seven China Unicom’s regional offices to upgrade their integrated call center platforms, and to develop new capabilities called “Communication Managers”, to support China Unicom’s launch of the “WO Family Service” offering nationwide.

  $ 18,940       100 %   $ 13,349       100 %     42 %

Total net revenue increased 42% in the first half year over year, due to robust growth in both segments.

Data mining.  Revenue increased by 13% for the first quarter compared to the same period in 2010, as the sales in 3G related MVAS continued to grow.

Software services. The increase in revenue by 79% for the first quarter compared to the same period in 2010. The increase was mainly due to a successful completion of another mobile application store platform development for a major telecom operator, as well as completion of a few large system integration orders.

Total cost of sales

Total cost of sales was $6.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, increasing by 91% from $3.6 million for the same period in 2010.

Data mining. Cost of data mining decreased by 2% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. This improvement in cost control was mainly due to a strong growth in high-margin MVAS business and less demand for the bundled mobile VAS solutions product line, resulting in a highly favorable change in product mix.

Software services.  Cost of software services increased 296% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the same period in 2010. This significant increase in cost is primarily attributed to changes in product mix in two areas: (a) the solutions delivered last year were primarily replication of similar IPTV support software deployed in different provinces, whereas products delivered this year had new functionalities that required substantially higher cost of implementation; and (b) several large scale system integration solutions had a high content of hardware acquired through third parties, which resulted in lower margin achieved for those orders.

As of June 30, 2011, we had $4.4 million in cash and cash equivalents. While we have incurred a reduction in cash and cash equivalents in the last two quarters, largely resulting from a high growth of revenues and installment payment for business acquisition consideration, we believe our ability to generate cash flow from our operating activities, our focus and commitment in improving trade receivables, along with our available cash will be sufficient to fund our operating activities, capital expenditures and other obligations through 2011 and beyond.

The following tables set forth the movements of our cash and cash equivalents for the periods presented:

Operating activities
Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $2.6 million. This was primarily attributable to the net income of $2.9 million, adjusted by non-cash items of share-based compensation of $0.2 million, allowance for doubtful accounts of $1.2 million, and depreciation and amortization of $2.5 million, offset by a net decrease in cash from working capital items of $9.4 million.

Investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $1.4 million, which was attributable to $0.5 million spent on acquisition of properties and equipment, and $0.8 million installment payment for business acquisition consideration.

Financing activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company has paid $0.4 million to its Chairman, Mr. Du, to partially pay off an interest free loan he provided to the Company at its development stage. In addition, the Company incurred $0.05 million short-term debts in total to the Chairman in the current quarter.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are designed to ensure that (1) information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms; and (2) that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.  There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error, the circumvention or overriding of controls and procedures and collusion to circumvent and conceal the overriding of controls and procedures.  Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of June 30, 2011, the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the material information required to be included in our SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating to us and our consolidated subsidiaries, and communicated to our management (including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
