NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

SIX MONTHS ENDED DEC 31, 2011 AND 2010

 

1.    ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Uni Core Holdings Corporation (formerly known as Intermost Corporation) (the "Company") and its majority-owned subsidiaries, of which the Company has the ability to exercise control and direct operations and the minority interests do not possess participatory rights. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

 

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

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but in the opinion of management of the Company, contain all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position at December 31, 2011, the results of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the cash flows for the six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. The balance sheet as of June 30, 2011 is derived from the Company’s audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although management of the Company believes that the disclosures contained in these financial statements are adequate to make the information presented therein not misleading. For further information, refer to the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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.

 

The results of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year ending June 30, 2012.

 

2.    NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

 

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per Share,” requires presentation of basic earnings per share (“Basic EPS”) and diluted earnings per share (“Diluted EPS”). Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing earnings (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (including shares reserved for issuance) during the period. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. The Company did not have any potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. Accordingly, basic and diluted earnings per share are the same for all periods presented.

 

3.    FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

 

The Company maintains its books and records in Renminbi (“Rmb”), the currency of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). The Rmb is the Company's functional currency, as the Company's business activities are located in the PRC and denominated in Rmb. Translation of amounts into United States dollars ("US$") has been made at the rate of Rmb6.3585 to US$1.00. The translation of the financial statements of subsidiaries whose functional currencies are other than Rmb into Rmb is performed for balance sheet accounts using closing exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for revenue and expense accounts using an average exchange rate during each reporting period. The gains or losses resulting from translation are included in stockholders' equity separately as accumulated other comprehensive loss. For further information, refer to the Note 6.

 

Transactions in currencies other than functional currencies during the period are translated into the respective functional currencies at the applicable rates of exchange prevailing at the time of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than functional currencies are translated into the respective functional currencies at the applicable rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Exchange gains and losses are included in the statement of operations. On July 21, 2005, Rmb was revalued from Rmb8.28 to Rmb8.11 for US$1 following the removal of the peg to the US dollar and pressure for the United States. The Rmb continuously appreciated to Rmb6.4635 for US$1 at June 30, 2011. And the Rmb further appreciated to Rmb6.3585 for US$1 at this quarter ended December 31, 2011.

 

- 7 -
 

The Rmb is not readily convertible into US$ or other foreign currencies. Translation of amounts from Rmb into US$ is for the convenience of readers. No representation is made that the Rmb amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at that rate or at any other rate.

 

For the purposes of financial statements presentation, the United States dollars equivalents of the all numbers are translated at the rate of USD$1 to Rmb6.3585.

 

4.    STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

The Company may periodically issue shares of common stock for services rendered or for financing costs. Such shares are valued based on the market price of the shares on the transaction date.

 

The Company may periodically issue stock options to employees and stock options or warrants to non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs.

 

ASC 718 "Compensation - Stock Compensation" formerly SFAS No. 123 prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all stock-based compensation plans, including employee stock options, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights which may be classified as either equity or liabilities. The Company should determine if a present obligation to settle the share-based payment transaction in cash or other assets exists. A present obligation to settle in cash or other assets exists if: (a) the option to settle by issuing equity instruments lacks commercial substance or (b) the present obligation is implied because of an entity's past practices or stated policies. If a present obligation exists, the transaction should be recognized as a liability; otherwise, the transaction should be recognized as equity.

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50 "Equity -Based Payments to Non-Employees" which codified SFAS 123 and the Emerging Issues Task Force consensus in Issue No. 96-18 ("EITF 96-18"), "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services". Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction should be determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.

 

In accordance with ASC 718, the cost of stock options and warrants issued to non-employees is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award. The fair value of the stock-based award is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The resulting amount is charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the period in which the Company expects to receive benefit, which is generally the vesting period.

 

Stock options issued to non-employee directors at fair market value will be accounted for under the intrinsic value method.

 

The Company did not have any stock options outstanding during the period ended December 31, 2011 (2010: Nil). Accordingly, no pro forma financial disclosure is provided herein.

 

5.    RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In January 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-01 an accounting pronouncement related to receivables (“FASB ASC Topic 310”). The amendments in this update temporarily delay the effective date of the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings in ASU 2010-20 for public entities. The delay is intended to allow the Board time to complete its deliberations on what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. The effective date of the new disclosures about troubled debt restructurings for public entities and the guidance for determining what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring will then be coordinated. Currently, that guidance is anticipated to be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2011. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

- 8 -
 

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-02, Receivables (Topic 310): A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. The FASB believes the guidance in this ASU will improve financial reporting by creating greater consistency in the way GAAP is applied for various types of debt restructurings.

 

The ASU clarifies which loan modifications constitute troubled debt restructurings. It is intended to assist creditors in determining whether a modification of the terms of a receivable meets the criteria to be considered a troubled debt restructuring, both for purposes of recording an impairment loss and for disclosure of troubled debt restructurings.

 

In evaluating whether a restructuring constitutes a troubled debt restructuring, a creditor must separately conclude that both of the following exist: (a) the restructuring constitutes a concession; and (b) the debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. The amendments to FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (Codification) Topic 310, Receivables, clarify the guidance on a creditor’s evaluation of whether it has granted a concession and whether a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties.

 

For public companies, the new guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after June 15, 2011, and applies retrospectively to restructurings occurring on or after the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. For nonpublic entities, the amendments to the Codification in the ASU are effective for annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2012, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early application is permitted.

 

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-03, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements. The ASU is intended to improve financial reporting of repurchase agreements (“repos”) and other agreements that both entitle and obligate a transferor to repurchase or redeem financial assets before their maturity.

 

In a typical repo transaction, an entity transfers financial assets to a counterparty in exchange for cash with an agreement for the counterparty to return the same or equivalent financial assets for a fixed price in the future. FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (Codification) Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing, prescribes when an entity may or may not recognize a sale upon the transfer of financial assets subject to repo agreements. That determination is based, in part, on whether the entity has maintained effective control over the transferred financial assets.

 

The amendments to the Codification in this ASU are intended to improve the accounting for these transactions by removing from the assessment of effective control the criterion requiring the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets. The guidance in the ASU is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The guidance should be applied prospectively to transactions or modifications of existing transactions that occur on or after the effective date. Early adoption is not permitted.

 

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This ASU represents the converged guidance of the FASB and the IASB (the Boards) on fair value measurement. The collective efforts of the Boards and their staffs, reflected in ASU 2011-04, have resulted in common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements, including a consistent meaning of the term “fair value.” The Boards have concluded the common requirements will result in greater comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.

 

The amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (Codification) in this ASU are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early application by public entities is not permitted. Nonpublic entities may apply the amendments in ASU 2011-04 early, but no earlier than for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011.

 

- 9 -
 

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. This ASU amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (Codification) to allow an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. The amendments to the Codification in the ASU do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income.

 

ASU 2011-05 should be applied retrospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2012, and interim and annual periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted.

 

The FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-08, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment. ASU 2011-08 is intended to simplify how entities, both public and nonpublic, test goodwill for impairment. ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is "more likely than not" that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in Topic 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other. The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50%.

 

ASU 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed as of a date before September 15, 2011, if an entity’s financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued or, for nonpublic entities, have not yet been made available for issuance.

 

6.    CERTAIN SIGNIFICANT RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

 

Country Risk - The Company is subject to the consideration and risks of operating in the People's Republic of China (the "PRC"). These include risks associated with the political and economic environment, foreign currency exchange and the legal system in the PRC. The economy of the PRC differs significantly from the economies of the "western" industrialized nations in such respects as structure, level of development, gross national product, growth rate, capital reinvestment, resource allocation, self-sufficiency, rate of inflation and balance of payments position, among others. Only recently has the PRC government encouraged substantial private economic activities. The Chinese economy has experienced significant growth in the past several years, but such growth has been uneven among various sectors of the economy and geographic regions. Actions by the PRC government to control inflation have significantly restrained economic expansion in the recent past. Similar actions by the PRC government in the future could have a significant adverse effect on economic conditions in PRC.

 

Many laws and regulations dealing with economic matters in general and foreign investment in particular have been enacted in the PRC. However, the PRC still does not have a comprehensive system of laws, and enforcement of existing laws may be uncertain and sporadic.

 

The Company’s primary sources of revenues and cash flows are derived from its business operations in the PRC. The Company’s business activity is with customers in the PRC. The PRC economy has, for many years, been a centrally-planned economy, operating on the basis of annual, five-year and ten-year state plans adopted by central PRC governmental authorities, which set out national production and development targets. The PRC government has been pursuing economic reforms since it first adopted its "open-door" policy in 1978. There is no assurance that the PRC government will continue to pursue economic reforms or that there will not be any significant change in its economic or other policies, particularly in the event of any change in the political leadership of, or the political, economic or social conditions in, the PRC. There is also no assurance that the Company will not be adversely affected by any such change in governmental policies or any unfavorable change in the political, economic or social conditions, the laws or regulations, or the rate or method of taxation in the PRC.

 

As many of the economic reforms that have been or are being implemented by the PRC government are unprecedented or experimental, they may be subject to adjustment or refinement, which may have adverse effects on the Company. Further, through state plans and other economic and fiscal measures such as the leverage of exchange rate, it remains possible for the PRC government to exert significant influence on the PRC economy.

 

- 10 -
 

The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained with government-owned banks in the PRC with high credit ratings. Accordingly, the Company believes that no significant credit risk exists.

 

On January 1, 1994, the PRC government introduced a single rate of exchange of Renminbi ("Rmb") against United States Dollar (“US$”) as quoted daily by the People’s Bank of China (the "Unified Exchange Rate"). On July 21, 2005, the Rmb was revalued from Rmb8.28 to Rmb8.11 for US$1 following the removal of the peg to the US dollar and pressure from the United States. The Peoples Bank of China also announced that the Renminbi would be pegged to a basket of foreign currencies, rather than being strictly tied to the US dollar and would trade within a narrow 0.3% band against this basket of currencies, which is dominated by the US dollar, Euro, Japanese Yen and South Korean Won, with a smaller proportion made up of the British pound, Thai Baht and Russian Ruble. No representation is made that the Rmb amounts have been, or could be, converted into US dollars at that rate. This quotation of exchange rates does not imply free convertibility of Rmb to other foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions continue to take place either through the Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rate quoted by the People's Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People's Bank of China or other institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers' invoices, shipping documents and signed contracts.

 

Restrictions on the Payment of Dividends - PRC law requires net profits after taxes to be used to set-off any losses carried forward before any distribution of profits may be made. Furthermore, PRC law imposes a Mandatory Provident Reserve on all businesses. Under this law, a business must set aside 10% of its distributable profits as a mandatory reserve before a distribution of profits may occur. Once the business accumulates a mandatory reserve equal to 50% of its capitalization, no further accumulation of the reserve is required.

 

Industry Risk - The Company operates in business segments which are characterized by rapid technological advances, changes in customer requirements, and evolving regulatory requirements and industry standards. Any failure by the Company to anticipate or to respond adequately to technological changes in its industry segments, changes in customer requirements or changes in regulatory requirements or industry standards, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and operating results.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION.

 

Certain statements contained in this Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements herein are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that there will be no material adverse change in our operations or business, that we will meet success in marketing and selling our products, and that we will be able to continue to attract and retain skilled employees necessary for our business, among other things. The foregoing assumptions are based on judgments with respect to, among other things, information available to our, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions. All of these assumptions are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many are beyond our control. Accordingly, although we believe that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any such assumption could prove to be inaccurate and therefore there can be no assurance that the results contemplated in the forward-looking statements will be realized. There are a number of risks presented by our business and operations, which could cause our financial performance to vary markedly from prior results, or results contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Such risks include failure of the our technology or products to work as anticipated, failure to develop commercially viable products or services from our technology, delays or failure in financing efforts, delays in or lack of market acceptance, failure to recruit adequate personnel, and problems with protection of intellectual property, among others. The words “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate” “should”, “could”, “may”, “plan” and similar expressions and variations thereof identify some of these forward-looking statements. Management decisions, including budgeting, are subjective in many respects and periodic revisions must be made to reflect actual conditions and business developments, the impact of which may cause us to alter our capital investment and other expenditures, which may also adversely affect our results of operations. In light of significant uncertainties inherent in forward-looking information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by us that our objectives or plans will be achieved. We undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements.

 

Overview

 

We believe that the People’s Republic of China represents an exciting emerging world market whose role in the global economy is, despite recent global economic slowdown, increasing steadily. China’s economic growth rate, measured by its gross domestic product, has consistently been higher than 7% over the past 10 years. This economic growth is attributable to many factors, including investment in the country’s infrastructure, increased privatization of businesses and an abundant source of labor. Currently, we offer products and services to businesses and consumers located primarily in China. Our plan is to take advantage of China’s economic growth to expand our existing businesses and, possibly, in the future, to sell our products and services outside of China. We also have begun to acquire diverse businesses that are not dependent on, or directly related to, each other. We believe that diversification is a good hedge against the collapse of a single industry, such as the global collapse of the technology industry that occurred in 2000. We expect that any acquisitions we make will improve our financial condition, although we cannot guarantee any such result.

 

Amidst global economic slowdown we continue to diversify our business, not only so that we will no longer be dependent on one market for revenue, but also so that we will be poised to take advantage of future economic recovery. Generally, the issuance of our common stock represents some or all of the purchase price we pay for an acquired business. We believe that the continued active trading of our common stock will be important to the principals of target companies and future acquisitions may be dependent on the active trading of our common stock. However, our common stock has not been actively traded and, if our common stock continues to trade with limited volume and at current levels we may not be able to make acquisitions as planned.

 

Risks Associated with Doing Business in China

 

There are significant risks in operating in the Peoples’ Republic of China (the “PRC”). These include risks associated with the political and economic environment, foreign currency exchange and the legal system in the PRC. The economy of PRC differs significantly from the economies of the industrialized nations of the west in such respects as structure, level of development, gross national product, growth rate, capital reinvestment, resource allocation, self-sufficiency, rate of inflation and balance of payments position, among others. Only recently has the PRC government encouraged substantial private economic activities. The Chinese economy has experienced significant growth in the past several years, but such growth has been uneven among various sectors of the economy and geographic regions. Actions by the PRC government to control inflation have significantly restrained economic expansion in the recent past. Similar actions by the PRC government in the future could have a significant adverse effect on economic conditions there.

Many laws and regulations dealing with economic matters in general and foreign investment in particular have been enacted in the PRC. However, the PRC still does not have a comprehensive system of laws, and enforcement of existing laws may be uncertain and sporadic. Our primary sources of revenues and cash flows are derived from our business operations in the PRC. The PRC economy has, for many years, been a centrally-planned economy, operating on the basis of annual, five-year and ten-year state plans adopted by central PRC governmental authorities, which set out national production and development targets. The PRC government has been pursuing economic reforms since it first adopted its "open-door" policy in 1978. There is no assurance that the PRC government will continue to pursue economic reforms or that there will not be any significant change in its economic or other policies, particularly in the event of any change in the political leadership of, or the political, economic or social conditions in, the PRC. There is also no assurance that the Company will not be adversely affected by any such change in governmental policies or any unfavorable change in the political, economic or social conditions, the laws or regulations, or the rate or method of taxation in the PRC.

 

As many of the economic reforms that have been or are being implemented by the PRC government are unprecedented or experimental, they may be subject to adjustment or refinement, which may have adverse effects on the Company. Further, through state plans and other economic and fiscal measures such as the leverage of exchange rate, it remains possible for the PRC government to exert significant influence on the PRC economy. The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained with government-owned banks in the PRC with high credit ratings.

 

On January 1, 1994, the PRC government introduced a single rate of exchange of Renminbi (“Rmb”) against United States Dollar ("US$") as quoted daily by the People's Bank of China (the “Unified Exchange Rate”). On July 21, 2005 Rmb was revalued from Rmb 8.28 to Rmb8.11 for US$1 following the removal of the peg to the US dollar and pressure for the United States. The Peoples Bank of China also announced that the Renminbi would be pegged to a basket of foreign currencies, rather than being strictly tied to the US dollar and would trade within a narrow 0.3% band against this basket of currencies, which is dominated by the US dollar, Euro, Japanese Yen and South Korean Won, with a smaller proportion made up of the British pound, Thai Baht and Russian Ruble. No representation is made that the Rmb amounts have been, or could be, converted into US$ at that rate. This quotation of exchange rates does not imply free convertibility of Rmb to other foreign currencies. All foreign exchange transactions continue to take place either through the Bank of China or other banks authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rate quoted by the People's Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People's Bank of China or other institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices, shipping documents and signed contracts.

 

Restriction on the Payment of Dividends - PRC law requires net profits after taxes to be used to set-off any losses carried forward before any distribution of profits may be made. Furthermore, PRC law imposes a Mandatory Provident Reserve on all businesses. Under this law, a business must set aside 10% of its distributable profits as a mandatory reserve before a distribution of profits may occur. Once the business accumulates a mandatory reserve equal to 50% of its capitalization, no further accumulation of the reserve is required.

 

Certain Factors Affecting Future Operating Results

 

The Company’s operating results have been, and will continue to be, affected by a wide variety of factors that could have a material adverse effect on revenues and profitability during any particular period. Some of these factors include:

 

  · the Company's ability to successfully implement its current business plans;
     
  · whether the Company will be able to obtain additional capital, if necessary, to support its operations;
     
  · whether the Company will be able to find joint venture prospects or acquisition prospects with which to enhance its business;
     
  · whether the Company can successfully integrate acquisitions that it makes into its business;
     
  · the level and rate of acceptance of the Company's products and services by consumers in China;

 

- 15 -
 

 

  · continued economic growth in China;
     
  · entry of new competition (including established companies from outside China and companies with substantially greater resources) into the Company's market;
     
  · fluctuations in the level of demand for services or products;
     
  · rescheduling or cancellation of orders by customers;
     
  · competitive pressures on selling prices;
     
  · rapid changes in technology, which could result in the Company's technology becoming obsolete;
     
  · dependence upon key employees;
     
  · availability and cost of computer technicians;
     
  · loss of any of the Company's major customers;
     
  · the Company's ability to introduce new products and services on a timely basis;
     
  · new product and service introductions by the Company's competitors;
     
  · fluctuations in exchange rates; and
     
  · adverse changes in the general economic, social or political conditions in the PRC.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements. These statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles as used in the United States of America. These principles require management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

The following critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues are recognized (i) with respect to services, at the time a project (or a milestone thereof) is completed and accepted by the customer, and (ii) with respect to products, at the time products are delivered to customers and collectability for such sales is reasonably assured. We have adopted Staff Accounting Bulletin No.101, Revenue Recognition (“SAB 101”) in our financial statements. SAB 101 provides in part further interpretive guidance for public companies on the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of revenues in financial statements. The adoption of SAB 101 did not have a material impact on our revenue recognition practices.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories consist of finished goods and raw materials, and stated at the lower of cost or market value. Substantially all inventory costs are determined using the weighted average basis. Finished goods are comprised of direct materials, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overhead. The management regularly evaluates the composition of its inventory to identify slow-moving and obsolete inventories to determine if additional write-downs are required.

 

- 16 -
 

Accounts Receivable

 

We typically extend credit to our customers. From time to time, e-commerce solution services are provided under fixed-price contracts where the revenues and the payment of related receivable balances are due upon the achievement of certain milestones. Management estimates the probability of collection of the receivable balances and provides an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon its judgment in assessing the realization of these receivable balances taking into account aging, historical experience, the customer’s financial condition and general economic conditions.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ASC 350 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other” formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", goodwill is no longer subject to amortization. Rather, goodwill is subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment, applying a fair-value based test. Fair value is generally determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. See Note 4 for goodwill impairment details.

 

Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill

 

The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets held or used whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may no longer be recoverable. An impairment loss, measured on the fair value of the asset, is recognized if expected future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the assets.

 

We evaluate goodwill, at a minimum, on an annual basis and whenever events and changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable in accordance with ASC 350 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other,” formerly SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” Impairment of goodwill is tested at the reporting unit level by comparing the reporting unit’s carrying amount, including goodwill, to the fair value of the reporting unit. The fair values of the reporting units are estimated using discounted cash flows approach. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill is considered impaired and a second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the accrual method of accounting to determine and report its taxable income and tax credit in the year in which they are available.  The Company has implemented ASC 740 “Income Taxes” formerly SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.

 

Income tax liabilities computed according to the United States, People’s Republic of China (PRC), Taiwan (ROC) and Hong Kong SAR tax laws are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consists of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of fixed assets and intangible assets for financial and tax reporting.  The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.  Deferred taxes also are recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future income taxes.  A valuation allowance is created to evaluate deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize that tax benefit, or that future realization is uncertain.

RISK FACTORS

 

In addition to other information in this Form 10-Q, including many risks presented in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis, the following risk factors should be carefully considered in evaluating our business since it operates in a highly changing and complex business environment that involves numerous risks, some of which are beyond our control. The following discussion highlights a few of these risk factors, any one of which may have a significant adverse impact on our business, operating results and financial condition. As a result of the risk factors set forth below and elsewhere in this 10-Q, the risks identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, and the risks discussed in our other Securities and Exchange Commission filings, actual results could differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements.

 

We face significant risks, and the risks described below may not be the only risks we face. Additional risks that we do not know of or that we currently consider immaterial may also impair our business operations. If any of the events or circumstances described in the following risk factors actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed and the trading price of our common stock could decline.

 

Our success depends on identifying and closing acquisitions of emerging and growing businesses in China.

 

Our success is largely dependent on our identifying good acquisition targets, negotiating and structuring transactions that are beneficial to us, closing those transactions, finding suitable management to operate those businesses and successfully operate and grow the businesses we acquire.

 

We must work cooperatively with governmental authorities.

 

We are engaged in business in a country with a planned economy heavily influenced by government activities and we must work cooperatively with a variety of national, federal, regional, state, provincial, and local government authorities and entities. The economy of China differs significantly from the economies of the “Western” industrialized nations in such respects as structure, level of development, gross national product, growth rate, capital reinvestment, resource allocation, self-sufficiency, rate of inflation and balance of payments position, among others. Only recently has the Chinese government encouraged substantial private economic activities. The Chinese economy has experienced significant growth in the past several years, but such growth has been uneven among various sectors of the economy and geographic regions. Actions by the Chinese government to control inflation have significantly restrained economic expansion in the recent past. Similar actions by the Chinese government in the future could have a significant adverse effect on economic conditions in China and the results of operations of the Company.

 

If we deliver products with defects, our credibility will be harmed and the sales and market acceptance of our products will decrease.

 

Our product and services are complex and may at times contain errors, defects and “bugs.” If we deliver products with errors, defects or bugs, our credibility and the market acceptance and sales of our products would be harmed. Further, if our products contain errors, defects or bugs, we may be required to expend significant capital and resources to alleviate such problems. We may agree to indemnify our customers in some circumstances against liability arising from defects in our products. Defects could also lead to liability, and, as a result of product liability lawsuits against us or against our customers. We carry product and information liability and errors and omissions insurance, but in the event that we are required to defend more than a few such actions, or in the event that we are found liable in connection with such an action, our business and operations may be severely and materially adversely affected.

We compete with large companies.

 

We operate in a highly competitive industry. Although we believe that some of our technology is unique, can be protected, and, if adopted, will confer benefits that will be otherwise unavailable for some time, we face very large competitors with greater resources which may adopt various strategies to block or slow our market penetration, thereby straining our more limited resources. We are aware of efforts by competitors to introduce doubt about our financial stability as we compete to make sales and win customers and business. Large competitors may also seek to hinder our operations through attempts to recruit key staff with exceptionally attractive terms of employment, including signing bonuses, or by the offer of highly competitive terms to potential or newly acquired customers.

 

We will need to continue our product development efforts.

 

We believe that our market will be characterized by increasing technical sophistication. We also believe that our eventual success will depend on our ability to continue to provide increased and specialized technical expertise. There is no assurance that we will not fall technologically behind competitors with greater resources. Although we believe that we enjoy a lead in our product development, and are hopeful that our patents provide some protection, we will likely need significant additional capital in order to continue to enjoy such a technological lead over competitors with more resources.

 

If we are unable to protect our intellectual property, our competitive position would be adversely affected.

 

We may rely on patent protection, as well as trademark and copyright law, trade secret protection and confidentiality agreements with our employees and others to protect our intellectual property. Despite our precaution, unauthorized third parties may copy our products and services or reverse engineer or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. We have filed eleven patent applications with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and intend to file more. Six patents have been granted; however, we do not know if the remaining applications will be granted or whether we will be successful in prosecuting any future patents. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. Our means of protecting our proprietary rights may not be adequate and third parties may infringe or misappropriate our patents, copyrights, trademarks and similar proprietary rights. If we fail to protect our intellectual property and proprietary rights, our business, financial condition and results of operations would suffer. We believe that we do not infringe upon the proprietary rights of any third party, and no third party has asserted an infringement claim against us. It is possible, however, that such a claim might be asserted successfully against us in the future. We may be forced to suspend our operations, or to pay significant amounts to defend our rights, and a substantial amount of the attention of our management may be diverted from our ongoing business, all of which would materially adversely affect our business.

 

We focus on the research and development of our proprietary technologies and the marketing of our first product.

 

We believe that these technologies are the basis for marketable commercial products. However, there can be no assurance of this, and it is possible that our proprietary technologies and products will have no commercial benefit or potential. In addition, from our inception to the present, we have not recognized any substantial operating revenues.

 

We depend on our key personnel and may have difficulty attracting and retaining the skilled staff we need to execute our growth plans.

 

Our success will be dependent largely upon the efforts of our management team. The loss of key staff could have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects. To execute our plans, we will have to attract and retain current employees. Competition for highly skilled employees with technical, management, marketing, sales, product development and other specialized training is intense. We may not be successful in attracting or retaining such qualified personnel. Specifically, we may experience increased costs in order to retain skilled employees. If we are unable to attract or retain experienced employees as needed, we would be unable to execute our business plan.

We may face rapid technological change.

 

The market for our products and services may be characterized by rapidly changing technologies, extensive research and the introduction of new products and services. We believe that our future success will depend in part upon our ability to continue to enhance our existing products and to develop, manufacture and market new products and services. As a result, we expect to continue to make a significant investment in engineering, research and development. During the fiscal years 2009 and 2010, we spent Rmb75,000_($US10,985) and Rmb420,321 ($US63,418), respectively; the cost of such activities were borne by the Company, not customers. There can be no assurance that we will be able to develop and introduce new products and services or enhance our initial products in a timely manner to satisfy customer needs, achieve market acceptance or address technological changes in our target markets. Failure to develop products and services and introduce them successfully and in a timely manner could adversely affect our competitive position, financial condition and results of operations.

 

If we experience rapid growth, we will need to manage such growth well.

 

We may experience substantial growth in the size of our staff and the scope of our operations, resulting in increased responsibilities for management. To manage this possible growth effectively, we will need to continue to improve our operational, financial and management information systems, will possibly need to create entire departments that do not now exist, and hire, train, motivate and manage a growing number of staff. Due to a competitive employment environment for qualified technical, marketing and sales personnel, we expect to experience difficulty in filling our needs for qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be able to effectively achieve or manage any future growth, and our failure to do so could delay product development cycles and market penetration or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

 

We could face information and product liability risks and may not have adequate insurance.

 

Our products may be used in connection with critical business applications. We may become the subject of litigation alleging that one or more of our products are ineffective or disruptive in our treatment of data, or with regard to critical business information. Thus, we may become the target of lawsuits from injured or disgruntled businesses or other users. In the event that we are required to defend more than a few such actions, or in the event that we are found liable in connection with such actions, our business and operations may be severely and materially adversely affected.

 

Future profitability is not guaranteed.

 

We have not recognized any substantial operating revenues to date. Assuming we can attract sufficient financing, and revenues increase, there is no assurance that our plans will be realized or that we will achieve break-even status or profitability in the future.

 

Changes to financial accounting standards may affect our results of operations and cause us to change business practices.

 

We prepare financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These accounting principles are subject to interpretation by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the SEC and various other bodies formed to interpret and create appropriate accounting principles. A change in those principles can have a significant effect on our reported results and may affect our reporting of transactions completed before a change is announced. Changes to those rules or the questioning of current practices may adversely affect our reported financial results or the way we conduct business. For example, accounting principles affecting many aspects of our business, including rules relating to equity-related compensation, have recently been revised. The Financial Accounting Standards Board and other agencies finalized changes to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles that required us, starting January 1, 2006, to record a charge to earnings for employee stock option grants and other equity incentives. We will have significant ongoing accounting charges resulting from option grant and other equity incentive expensing that could reduce net income or increase losses. In addition, since we historically used equity-related compensation as a component of our total employee compensation program, the accounting change could make the use of equity-related compensation less attractive and therefore make it more difficult to attract and retain employees.

There is a limited market for our common stock and we do not anticipate paying cash dividends.

 

Our common stock is not listed on any exchange and trades in the over-the-counter (the “OTC”) market in the United States. Additionally, one stockholder holds a majority of our stock. As such, the market for our common stock is limited and is not regulated by the rules and regulations of any exchange in the United States or China. Further, the price of our common stock and its trading volume in the OTC market may be subject to wide fluctuations. Our stock price could decline regardless of our actual operating performance, and stockholders could lose a substantial part of their investment as a result of industry or market-based fluctuations. Our stock trades relatively thinly. If a more active public market for our stock is not sustained, it may be difficult for stockholders to sell shares of our common stock, in which case they may sustain significant losses or lose their entire investments Because we do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future, stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares unless they are able to sell them. The market price of our common stock will likely fluctuate in response to a number of factors, including but not limited to, the following:

 

  · sales, sales cycle and market acceptance or rejection of our products;
  · economic conditions within our industry;
  · our failure to meet performance estimates or the performance estimates of securities analysts;
  · the timing of announcements by us or our competitors of significant products, contracts or acquisitions or publicity regarding actual or potential results or performance thereof; and
  · domestic Chinese and international economic, business and political conditions.

 

Failure to maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 could have a material adverse effect on our stock price.

 

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related rules and regulations of the SEC require annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and a report by our independent registered public accounting firm attesting to and reporting on these assessments. If we fail to adequately maintain compliance with, or maintain the adequacy of, our internal control over financial reporting, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related rules and regulations of the SEC. If we cannot favorably assess, or our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to provide an unqualified attestation report on our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, investor confidence in the reliability of our financial reports may be adversely affected, which could have a material adverse effect on our stock price.

 

Enforceability of Civil Liabilities Against Foreign Persons.

 

Although the Company is a Wyoming corporation, we engage in business primarily in China, our factories, properties, equipment and other assets are located outside the United States in China and our officers and directors are located outside the United States in China. Therefore, investors and stockholders may have considerable difficulty in bringing an original action in courts in the United States or in China under the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws, against the Company, its factories or its officers and directors. Investors and stockholders also may have considerable difficulty in effecting service of process in the United States on our officers and directors or in enforcing in courts in China judgments of United States courts against them based on the U.S. federal securities laws.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain controls and procedures designed to ensure that we are able to collect the information we are required to disclose in the reports we file with the SEC, and to record, process, summarize and disclose this information within the time periods specified by the SEC. Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report conducted by management, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these controls and procedures are not effective to ensure that we are able to record, process, summarize and report the information we are required to disclosure in the reports we file with the SEC within the required time periods.

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011.

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls or in other factors that could have significantly affected those controls subsequent to the date of the Company’s most recent evaluation.
