1. ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
 
China Executive Education Corp (the “Company”), formerly known as On Demand Heavy Duty Corp, is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Nevada.
 
On February 12, 2010, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Surmounting Limit Marketing Adviser Limited (“SLM”), a Hong Kong Corporation,  through China Executive Education Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Merger Sub”) wholly owned by the Company. SLM is a holding company whose only asset, held through a subsidiary, is 100% of the registered capital of Hangzhou MYL Business Administration Consulting Co., Ltd. (“MYL Business”), a limited liability company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). Substantially all of SLM's operations are conducted in China through MYL Business, and through contractual arrangements with several of MYL Business’s affiliated entities in China, including Hangzhou MYL Commercial Services Co., Ltd. (“MYL Commercial”) and its subsidiaries. MYL Commercial is a fast-growing executive education company with dominant operation in Shanghai, the commercial center of China, providing comprehensive consulting services such as business administration, marketing strategy, designing of enterprise image, corporate investment and commerce, business conference as well as professional training programs designed to fit the needs of Chinese entrepreneurs to improve their leadership, management and marketing skills.
 
In connection with the acquisition, the Merger Sub issued 20 shares of the common stock of the Merger Sub which constituted no more than 10% ownership interest in the Merger Sub to the shareholders of SLM, in exchange for all the shares of the capital stock of SLM (the “Share Exchange” or “Merger”). The 20 shares of the common stock of the Merger Sub were converted into approximately 21,560,000 shares of the common stock of the Company so that upon completion of the Merger, the shareholders of SLM own approximately 98% of the common stock of the Company.
 
As part of the Merger, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), the Company transferred all of the outstanding capital of its subsidiary, On Demand Heavy Duty Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”) to certain of its shareholders in exchange for the cancellation of  3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Split Off Transaction”). In addition, an aggregate of 3,070,000 shares were returned to the transfer agent for cancelation by other shareholders of Holdings. Following the Merger and the Split Off Transaction, the Company discontinued its former business and is now engaged in the executive education business.

Upon completion of the Merger, there were 22,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding.
 
As a result of these transactions, persons affiliated with the SLM and MYL Business owned securities that in the aggregate represented approximately 98% of the equity in the Company. In addition, in connection with the change of control contemplated by the Share Exchange, the directors and officers of the Company resigned from their positions and new directors and officers affiliated with MYL Business controlled the Board of Directors.

Consequently, the Company’s name was changed from “On Demand Heavy Duty Corp.” to the Merger Sub’s name “China Executive Education Corp.” in order to more effectively reflect the Company’s business and communicate the Company’s brand identity to customers.

1. ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES (continued)

The above mentioned merger transaction has been accounted for as a reverse merger under the purchase method of accounting since there was a change of control. Accordingly, SLM is treated as the continuing entity for accounting purposes. SLM did not commence business operations until April 2009.
 
SLM does not conduct any substantive operations of its own. Instead, through its subsidiary, MYL Business, it had entered into certain exclusive contractual agreements with Hangzhou MYL Commercial Services Co., Ltd.  (“MYL Commercial”), a company incorporated in Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province, People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) on March 25, 2009.  Pursuant to these agreements, SLM is obligated to absorb a majority of the risk of loss from MYL Commercial’s activities and entitled it to receive a majority of its expected residual returns. In addition, MYL Commercial’s shareholders have pledged their equity interest in MYL Commercial to SLM, irrevocably granted SLM an exclusive option to purchase, to the extent permitted under PRC Law, all or part of the equity interests in MYL Commercial and agreed to entrust all the rights to exercise their voting power to the persons appointed by MYL Commercial. Through these contractual arrangements, the Company and SLM hold all the variable interests of MYL Commercial. Therefore, the Company is the primary beneficiary of MYL Commercial.
 
Based on these contractual arrangements, management believes that MYL Commercial should be considered as a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) under ASC 510 “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, and Interpretation of ARB No. 51”, because the Company is the primary beneficiary. Accordingly, the Company consolidates MYL Commercial and its subsidiary’s results, assets and liabilities

2.  UNCERTAINTY OF ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN
 
The Company's consolidated financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations and the attainment of profitable operations.
 
As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company has incurred accumulated deficits totaling $20,038,816 and $17,466,892, with stockholder’s deficiency totaling $19,188,455 and $16,665,331, and its current liabilities exceed its current assets by $1,138,275 and $1,329,556, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company has suffered from net loss of $746,455 and $608,524, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company has suffered from net loss of $2,571,924 and $4,793,007, respectively. These unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. These factors noted above raise substantial doubts regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

3.  
RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
The Company has restated its consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, as previously disclosed in Form 10-K/A for 2010 filed on March 27, 2012. As a result, certain line items have changes and caused the restatement of the interim financial statement for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)  
Method of accounting
 
The Company’s interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP.
 
The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012. The Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011 has been taken from the Company’s audited consolidated balance sheet (restated) as of the date. All other consolidated financial statements contained herein are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements (restated) and notes thereto.
 
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. This basis of accounting differs in certain material respects from that used for the preparation of the books of account of the Company’s principal subsidiaries, which are prepared in accordance with the accounting principles and the relevant financial regulations applicable to enterprises with limited liabilities established in the PRC, the accounting standards used in the places of their domicile. The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements reflect necessary adjustments not recorded in the books of account of the Company's subsidiaries to present them in conformity with US GAAP.

(b)  
Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements are presented in US Dollars and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary.  All significant inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates
 
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however actual results could differ materially from those estimates. 
 
(d)  
Economic and political risks
 
The Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.
 
The Company’s operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 

(e)  
Cash and concentration of risk
 
Cash includes cash on hand, cash in banks and demand deposits in accounts maintained within the PRC and Hong Kong.  The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risk on its cash in bank accounts.
  
 
(f)  
Accounting for the impairment of long-lived assets
 
The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used, including intangible assets subject to amortization, when events and circumstances warrant such a review, pursuant to the guidelines established in ASC No. 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flow from such asset is separately identifiable and is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived asset. Fair market value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Losses on long-lived assets to be disposed of are determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost to dispose.
 
During the reporting periods, there was no impairment loss.
 
(g)  
Cash and cash equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains bank accounts in the Hong Kong. The subsidiaries of the Company maintain bank accounts in Hong Kong and the PRC. 
 
(h)  
Retirement benefits
 
The employees of the Company are members of a state-managed retirement benefit plan operated by the government of the PRC. The Company is required to contribute a specified percentage of payroll costs to the retirement benefit scheme to fund the benefits. The only obligation of the Company with respect to the retirement benefit plan is to make the specified contributions.
 
(i)  
Property, plant and equipment
 
Plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation.  Depreciation is provided over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of the property, plant and equipment are as follows:
 
Buildings
20 years
Computer and electronic equipment
3-5 years
Leasehold improvement
3 years
Motor vehicles
5 years
 
 
 
10

 
4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 

The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the statement of income.
 
(j)  
Foreign currency translation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The functional currency of the Company is the Renminbi (RMB).  The consolidated financial statements are translated into United States dollars from RMB at year-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred.
 
The exchange rates used to translate amounts in RMB into USD for the purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements were as follows:
 
  
 
September 30, 2011
 balance sheet
 
RMB 6.3843  to US$1.00
 Statements of income and comprehensive income
 
RMB 6.4967  to US$1.00
     
   
September 30, 2012
 balance sheet
 
RMB 6.3190  to US$1.00
 Statements of income and comprehensive income
 
RMB 6.3085  to US$1.00
 
The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions.  No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into USD at the rates used in translation.  In addition, the current foreign exchange control policies applicable in PRC also restrict the transfer of assets or dividends outside the PRC.
 
(k)  
Accounts receivable
 
Accounts receivable is recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is maintained for all customers based on a variety of factors, including the length of time the receivables are past due, significant one-time events and historical experience. Bad debts are written off as incurred.  As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were no bad debts.
 
Outstanding accounts balances are reviewed individually for collectability. The Company does not charge any interest income on trade receivables. Accounts balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. To date, the Company has not charged off any balances as it has yet to exhaust all means of collection.

(l)  
Statutory reserves

As stipulated by the PRC’s Company Law and as provided in the company Articles of Association, company’s net income after taxation can only be distributed as dividends after appropriation has been made for the following:
 
i.  
Making up cumulative prior years’ losses, if any;
 
ii.  
Allocations to the “Statutory surplus reserve” of at least 10% of income after tax, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, until the fund amounts to 50% of the Company's registered capital, which is restricted for set off against losses, expansion of production and operation or increase in registered capital;
 
iii.  
Allocations of 5-10% of income after tax, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, to the Company's “Statutory common welfare fund”, which is restricted for capital expenditure for the collective benefits of the Company's employees; and
 
iv.  
Allocations to the discretionary surplus reserve, if approved in the shareholders’ general meeting.

(m)  
Revenue recognition
 
The Company records all tuition as deferred revenue when students enroll a course. At the beginning of each course, revenue is recognized on a pro rata basis over the quantity of classes attended by the students. This results in the Company’s balance sheet including future revenues that have not yet been earned as deferred revenue for courses that are not yet attended.
 
Refund policy permits students who apply for a refund for the portion of the course they did not attend. The Company may refund a portion of fees after negotiated. In the past practice, there are seldom cases that the students apply for refund, and it has no significant impact on revenue recognition of the Company based on the best estimation of the management Refunds result in a reduction in deferred revenue during the period that a student drops or withdraws from a class because associated tuition revenue is recognized pro rata over the quantity of classes are delivered.

Generally, net revenue varies from period to period based on several factors, including the aggregate number of students attending classes, the number of classes held during the period, and the tuition price.
 
The Company’s revenue is principally derived from tuition and fees associated with two kinds of educational programs to the students: proprietary training courses and comprehensive training courses.
 
Proprietary training courses, which normally take several days to complete, primarily consisted of featured lectures. These courses are provided on a roll-over basis over the year. Based on the courses attendance record, the revenue is recognized at the delivered courses to the students.
 
Comprehensive training courses, which are composed of sixteen individual courses with systematic training in leadership development, i.e. decision making skills, negotiation skills, presentation skills and people skills. Based on the contracts, the students are eligible to enroll the courses within three years period. The revenue is recognized on pro rata basis over the quantity of classes attended.

(n)  
Operating lease rental
 
The Company did not have a lease that met the criteria of a capital lease. Leases that do not qualify as a capital lease are classified as an operating lease. Operating lease rental payments included in general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were $278,011 and $294,060, respectively. Operating lease rental payments included in general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were $798,379 and $667,465, respectively.
 
(o)  
Income taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach and allows for recognition of deferred tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future realization is uncertain.
 
The Company is operating in the PRC, and in accordance with the relevant tax laws and regulations of PRC, the enterprise income tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were 25%.

(p)  
Comprehensive income
 
Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners.  Among other disclosures, all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income are required to be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other consolidated financial statements.  The Company’s current component of other comprehensive income is the foreign currency translation adjustment.
 
(q)  
Recently implemented standard
 
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 adopted for fiscal years, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011 for public entities with retrospective application. There is no material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In June 2011, the FASB issued 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. The amendments are effective for public entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, and should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted; the Company currently expects to adopt this standard in the first quarter of 2012. The Company is currently reviewing the effect this new pronouncement will have on the consolidated financial statements.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
In September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-08, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other (Topic 350). This Accounting Standards Update amends FASB ASC 350. This amendment specifies the change in method for determining the potential impairment of goodwill. It includes examples of circumstances and events that the entity should consider in evaluating whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The amendments are effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company does not expect the adoption of the provisions in ASU 2011-08 will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In December 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210)—Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2011-11). The update requires entities to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements of financial instruments and derivative instruments.  The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and interim periods therein. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this update will have on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In December 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011−12, Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2011−12”). Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05.  Among the new provisions in ASU 2011-05 was a requirement for entities to present reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component in both the statement in which net income is presented and the statement in which other comprehensive income is presented (for both interim and annual financial statements); however this reclassification requirement is indefinitely deferred by ASU 2011-12 and will be further deliberated by the FASB at a future date.

In July 2012, FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2012-01, Health Care Entities (Topic 954): Continuing Care Retirement Communities -- Refundable Advance Fees. This ASU clarifies that an entity should classify an advance fee as deferred revenue when a continuing care retirement community has a resident contract that provides for payment of the refundable advance fee upon reoccupancy by a subsequent resident, which is limited to the proceeds of reoccupancy. Refundable advance fees that are contingent upon reoccupancy by a subsequent resident but are not limited to the proceeds of reoccupancy should be accounted for and reported as a liability. For public entities (including conduit bond obligors), the amendments in ASU No. 2012-01 are effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. For nonpublic entities, the amendments to the codification in the ASU are effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in ASU No. 2012-01 should be applied retrospectively by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to opening retained earnings (or unrestricted net assets) as of the beginning of the earliest period presented.

In July 2012, FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2012-02, Intangibles--Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. This ASU states that an entity has the option first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, an entity concludes that it is not more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then the entity is not required to take further action. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount in accordance with Codification Subtopic 350-30, Intangibles--Goodwill and Other, General Intangibles Other than Goodwill. Under the guidance in this ASU, an entity also has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any indefinite-lived intangible asset in any period and proceed directly to performing the quantitative impairment test. An entity will be able to resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim impairment tests performed as of a date before July 27, 2012, if a public 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.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
In August 2012, FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2012-03, Technical Amendments and Corrections to SEC Sections. This ASU amends various SEC paragraphs pursuant to SAB 114, SEC Release No. 33-9250, and ASU 2010-22, which amend or rescind portions of certain SAB Topics.

In October 2012, FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2012-04, Technical Corrections and Improvements. This ASU make technical corrections, clarifications, and limited-scope improvements to various Topics throughout the Codification. The amendments in this ASU that will not have transition guidance will be effective upon issuance for both public entities and nonpublic entities. For public entities, the amendments that are subject to the transition guidance will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. For nonpublic entities, the amendments that are subject to the transition guidance will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2013.

In October 2012, FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2012-05, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230). This ASU addresses how cash receipts arising from the sale of certain donated financial assets, such as securities, should be classified in the statement of cash flows of not-for-profit entities (NFPs). Some NFPs classify those cash receipts as investing cash inflows, while other entities classify them as either operating cash inflows or financing cash inflows, consistent with their treatment of inflows arising from cash contributions. The objective of this Update is for an NFP to classify cash receipts from the sale of donated financial assets consistently with cash donations received in the statement of cash flows if those cash receipts were from the sale of donated financial assets that upon receipt were directed without the NFP imposing any limitations for sale and were converted nearly immediately into cash. The amendments in the ASU are effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim fiscal periods within those years, beginning after June 15, 2013. Retrospective application to all periods presented upon the date of adoption is permitted. Early adoption from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption is permitted.

In October 2012, FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2012-06, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Subsequent Accounting for an Indemnification Asset Recognized at the Acquisition Date as a Result of a Government-Assisted Acquisition of a Financial Institution. This ASU addresses the diversity in practice about how to interpret the terms on the same basis and contractual limitations when subsequently measuring an indemnification asset recognized in a government-assisted (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or National Credit Union Administration) acquisition of a financial institution that includes a loss-sharing agreement (indemnification agreement). For public and nonpublic entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively to any new indemnification assets acquired after the date of adoption and to indemnification assets existing as of the date of adoption arising from a government-assisted acquisition of a financial institution.

In October 2012, FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2012-07, Entertainment--Films (Topic 926): Accounting for Fair Value Information That Arises after the Measurement Date and Its Inclusion in the Impairment Analysis of Unamortized Film Costs. This ASU eliminates the rebuttable presumption that the conditions leading to the write-off of unamortized film costs after the balance sheet date existed as of the balance sheet date. The amendments also eliminate the requirement that an entity incorporate into fair value measurements used in the impairment tests the effects of any changes in estimates resulting from the consideration of subsequent evidence if the information would not have been considered by market participants at the measurement date. or SEC filers, the amendments are effective for impairment assessments performed on or after December 15, 2012. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for impairment assessments performed on or after December 15, 2013. The amendments resulting from this ASU should be applied prospectively. Earlier application is permitted, including for impairment assessments performed as of a date before October 24, 2012, if, for SEC filers, the entity’s financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued or, for all other entities, have not yet been made available for issuance.

5. CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK AND MAJOR CUSTOMERS
 
Financial instruments that potentially expose the company to concentrations of credit risk, consists of cash and accounts receivable as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of its cash position and credit evaluations to ensure sound collections and minimize credit losses exposure.
 
As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, all the Company’s bank deposits were conducted with banks in the PRC where there is currently no rule or regulation mandated on obligatory insurance of bank accounts.
 
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, all of the Company’s sales were generated from the PRC. In addition, all accounts receivable as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 also arose in the PRC.
 
The maximum amount of loss exposure due to credit risk that the Company would bear if the counter parties of the financial instruments failed to perform represents the carrying amount of each financial asset on the balance sheet.
 
Normally, the Company does not require collateral from customers or debtors.
 
6. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY
 
PRC laws and regulations currently require any foreign entity that invests in the education business in China to be an educational institution with relevant experience in providing educational services outside China. The Company are not educational institutions and do not provide educational services outside China. The Company conducts substantially all of its education business in China through MYL Commercial.
 
On May 1, 2009 MYL Business entered into a series of exclusive contractual arrangements (the “Contractual Arrangements”) with MYL Commercial and its shareholders, which enable the Company to (1) have power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the economic performance of MYL Commercial, and (2) receive the economic benefits of MYL Commercial that could be significant to MYL Commercial. Accordingly, the Company is considered the primary beneficiary of MYL Commercial and has consolidated MYL Commercial’s financial results of operations, assets and liabilities in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. These agreements are summarized in the following paragraphs.
 
Exclusive Services Agreement. Pursuant to an exclusive services agreement by and among MYL Business and MYL Commercial, dated May 1, 2009, MYL Commercial irrevocably entrusted to MYL Business the management and operation of MYL Commercial and the responsibilities and authorities of its shareholders and directors. The service fee to be paid by MYL Commercial is equal to 95% of its total income which can be waived by MYL Business from time to time in its sole discretion.
 
 
 
 
 
16

 
6. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY (continued)
 
Call Option Agreement. Pursuant to a call option agreement by and among MYL Business, MYL Commercial and MYL Commercial’s shareholders, dated as of May 1, 2009, each of MYL Commercial and MYL Commercial’s shareholders have granted MYL Business or its designee an exclusive option to purchase all or part of their equity interests in MYL Commercial, or all or part of the assets of MYL Commercial, in each case, at any time determined by MYL Business and to the extent permitted by PRC law.
 
Voting Rights Proxy Agreement. Pursuant to a voting rights proxy agreement by and among MYL Business, MYL Commercial and MYL Commercial’s shareholders, dated as of May 1, 2009, the shareholders of MYL Commercial have granted the personnel designated by MYL Business the right to appoint directors and senior management of MYL Commercial and to exercise all of their other voting rights as shareholders of MYL Commercial, as provided under the articles of association of such entity. Under the voting rights proxy agreement, there are no restrictions on the number, to the extent allowed under the respective articles of association of MYL Commercial, or identity of those persons we can appoint as directors and officers.
 
Equity Pledge Agreement. Pursuant to an equity pledge agreement by and among MYL Business, MYL Commercial and MYL Commercial’s shareholders, dated as of May 1, 2009, each of the shareholders has pledged all his equity interest in MYL Commercial to MYL Business to secure their obligations under the relevant contractual control agreements to which each is a party, including but not limited to, the obligations of MYL Commercial under the exclusive services agreement, call option agreement and voting rights proxy agreement. Under this equity pledge agreement, the shareholders have agreed not to transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise dispose of their interest in MYL Commercial, as the case may be, without the prior written consent of MYL Business. Each equity pledge is to be registered with the local Administration for Industry and Commerce (the “AIC”).
 
Pursuant to the equity pledge agreement between MYL Business and MYL Commercial, the shareholders of MYL Commercial pledged all of their equity of MYL Commercial (RMB500,000 or approximately $78,651) to MYL Business.  
 
As a result of the Contractual Arrangement, MYL Business was granted with unconstrained decision making rights and power over key operational functions within MYL Commercial. Therefore, MYL Business will bear all of MYL Commercial’s operating costs in exchange for 100% of the net income MYL Commercial. There is not any income or loss of MYL Commercial attributed to other parties. MYL Business does not have any equity interest in MYL Commercial, but instead has the right to enjoy economic benefits similar to equity ownership through its contractual arrangements with MYL Commercial.
 
These contractual arrangements may not be as effective in providing MYL Business with control over the MYL Commercial as direct ownership. Due to its VIE structure, MYL Business has to rely on contractual rights to effect control and management of the MYL Commercial, which exposes MYL Business to the risk of potential breach of contract by the shareholders of MYL Commercial.
 
 
 
17

 
In addition, as all of these Contractual Arrangements are governed by PRC law and provide for the resolution of disputes through either arbitration or litigation in the PRC, they would be interpreted in accordance with PRC law and any disputes would be resolved in accordance with PRC legal procedures. The legal environment in the PRC is not as developed as in other jurisdictions, such as the United States. As a result, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could further limit the Company’s ability to enforce these contractual arrangements. Furthermore, these contracts may not be enforceable in China if PRC government authorities or courts take a view that such contracts contravene PRC laws and regulations or are otherwise not enforceable for public policy reasons. In the event the Company is unable to enforce these contractual arrangements, it may not be able to exert effective control over the VIEs, and its ability to conduct its business may be materially and adversely affected. At present, the equity interest pledge agreement has not been registered with the PRC regulator.

None of the assets of the VIEs can be used only to settle obligations of the consolidated VIEs. Conversely, liabilities recognized as a result of consolidating these VIEs do not represent additional claims on the Company’s general assets.

12. BASIC AND DILUTED LOSSES PER SHARE
 
In accordance with ASC 260 Earnings per Share, basic losses per common share is computed by using net losses divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted losses per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the losses of the Company. Potential common stock shares consist of shares that may arise from outstanding dilutive common stock options and warrants (the number of which is computed using the “treasury stock method”). The calculation of diluted losses per common share assumes that outstanding common shares were increased by shares issuable upon exercise of those stock warrants for which the market price exceeds the exercise price, less shares that could have been purchased by the Company with related proceeds.

Revenues.  We provide two kinds of training programs to students: (i) proprietary training courses; and (ii) comprehensive training courses.  Proprietary training courses, which normally take several days to complete, primarily consist of featured lectures. These proprietary training courses are provided on a roll-over basis over the year. Our comprehensive training course package includes sixteen courses (covering over 41 main topics) delivered to students by both Chinese and foreign lecturers. The comprehensive training courses normally take a more extended time frame to complete. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, 1,073 students attended our training courses (732 students participated in the proprietary training courses while 341 students participated in the comprehensive training programs). For the three months ended September 30, 2011, 2,300 students attended our training courses (1,962 students participated in the proprietary training courses while 338 students participated in the comprehensive training programs). The following table provides a breakdown of our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively:

Our total revenues decreased by $674,964, or 24%, to $2,112,657 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, from $2,787,621  for the same period of 2011. The decrease in our revenue was primarily attributable to the substantial decrease of revenue derived from comprehensive training programs.
 
 
 
26

 
 
Revenue from comprehensive training programs decreased from $1,680,258 for the quarter ended September 30, 2011 to $645,190 for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, which represents a decrease of $1,035,068, or 62%. Our comprehensive training programs include 16 courses, among which 10 courses are taught by Chinese lecturers within several months and the remaining 6 courses taught by foreign lecturers delivered over an extended period of time. Because the schedules for the foreign lecturers’ courses are generally not fixed and the students have the discretion to decide which course to attend based on his or her schedules, revenues derived from comprehensive training programs are deferred and recognized on a pro-rata basis as the courses are delivered across the comprehensive training programs. The decrease of the revenue derived from comprehensive training programs is primarily due to lower enrollment, as well as decreased average tuition per enrollment. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, 453 courses were delivered to 341 students, with an average tuition of $1,424 per enrollment; In comparison, for the three months ended September 30, 2011, 1,002 courses were delivered to 338 students, with an average tuition of $1,677 per enrollment. Average tuition decreased by $253 or 15% for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.  Such substantial decrease was partially offset by the factor discussed below.
 
Revenues from proprietary training courses increased by $360,104 or 33% for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the increased average tuition per enrollment. The average tuition per enrollment increases from $564 per course in the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $2,005 per course in the three months ended September 30,2012. For the same period of 2011, we focused on offering promotional courses aiming to attract more students to enroll in our training courses, which charge much lower tuition than courses offered in our ordinary course of business. 1,962 students have attended the promotional courses with average tuition of $564 per course. Our marketing efforts through the promotional courses in the third quarter of 2011 have contributed to our revenue increase in the third quarter of 2012.
 
Cost of revenue. Our costs of revenue primarily include expenditures incurred in connection with providing educational services to students, such as renting conference rooms, booking hotels, compensation for lecturers, renting training equipment and materials as well as other direct labor costs incurred. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, cost of revenue decreased by approximately $1.19 million, or 58%, as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011. The following table summarizes the cost of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and 2012, respectively:

The decrease in cost of revenue was attributable to the cumulative effect of the following factors:

First, the cost of hotel and conference rooms for the three months ended September 30, 2012 decreased by $1,087,211, or 65%, as compared to the same period of last year. The decrease in hotel and conference room costs was primarily attributable to lower student enrollment for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period of 2011. In addition, hotel and conference room expense was relatively high in 2011 because we held a training conference for our students in Australia named “Anthony Robin dating the life” in August 2011 and we assumed all the expenses associated with hotel accommodation and the conference.

Second, the cost of administrative support decreased by $112,893, or 81%, to $26,724, or 3% of the total cost of revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $139,617, or 7% of the total cost of revenue, for the same period in 2011. The decrease was primarily due to our successful outsourcing of the organizational tasks to local recruiting agents, who helped to organize and coordinate trainings and promotional seminars. As a result, we incurred less administrative support costs in 2012.

Third, business sales taxes decreased by $21,015, or 16%, to $114,469 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $135,484 for the same period in 2011.  We are subject to a 5% business sales tax calculated based on the invoiced amount upon student registration, not based on actual revenue recognized for the period indicated. The decrease in sales tax for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily due to less invoiced amount, compared with the same period of 2011. 

However, the decrease caused by the factors discussed above was partially offset by the increased cost of lecturers’ compensation. Cost of lecturer’s compensation amounted to $110,481, or 13% of the total cost of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2012, representing a $48,500 increase as compared to the corresponding period of 2011.  The increase in lecturer’s compensation cost for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was due to increased compensation paid to external lecturers. For the three months ended September 30, 2011, we did not invite any external lecturers to provide lectures to our students.

Gross profit and gross margin. Our gross profit is equal to the difference between our revenues and our cost of revenues. Our gross profit increased by $518,593, or 70%, to $1,259,898 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $741,305 for the same period in 2011. Our gross profit as a percentage of revenue (gross margin) also increased to 60% for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to 27% during the third quarter of 2011. The increase in our gross profit and gross margin was primarily due to the decreased costs of revenue as discussed above.
 
Selling expenses. Our selling expenses mainly consist of advertising expense, sales commission paid to local agents for student enrollment and salaries paid to our sales forces. Selling expenses increased by $481,306, or 98%, in the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared with the three months ended September 30, 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to increased sales commission paid to external recruiting agents in order to help us recruit students and coordinate the localized trainings. The outsourcing strategy enabled us to focus on course design and training organization.  As a result of the foregoing reasons, selling expenses were higher in the third quarter of 2012 than the same period of 2011. We expect our selling and marketing expense to remain relatively stable in the near future as we continue to use outsourced sales agents to help promote our training courses and undertake part of the student enrollment tasks.

General and administrative expenses. Our general and administrative expenses consist of staff salaries and benefits, traveling and entertainment expenses, professional fees (including consulting, audit and legal fees), rent expenses and other associated fees. Our general administrative expenses increased by $211,867, or 25%, for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared with the three months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in our general and administrative expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 was primarily due to increased professional and consulting fee paid to maintain our public status in the United States and restructure our organization.  In addition, our operating lease expense for renting our office space and executive housing also slightly increased for the three months ended September 30, 2012 due to inflation, compared to the same period of 2011.

Provision for income taxes. Our  variable interest entities are governed by the income tax laws of the PRC and are subject to a statutory rate of 25% on income reported in their financial statements after appropriate tax adjustments. Due to the net operating loss, no income tax expense was necessary for the three months ended September 30, 2012.  For the three months ended September 30, 2011, we incurred income taxes of $2,092.

Net income (loss). As a result of the cumulative effect of the foregoing factors, we reported a net loss of $746,455 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to a net loss of $608,524 for the same period of 2011, which represents an increase of $137,929, or 23%.  The increase in our net loss was due to decreased sales and increased operating expenses as discussed above.

Revenues. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, 3,332 students attended our training courses or featured lectures (2,606 students participated in the proprietary training courses and another 726 students participated in the comprehensive training programs). For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, 4,813 students attended our training courses or featured lectures (4,073 students participated in the proprietary training courses and another 740 students participated in the comprehensive training programs). Our total revenues decreased by $1,074,127, or 19%, to $4,589,149 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, from $5,663,276 during the same period of 2011. The following table provides a breakdown of our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively:

The decrease in our revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to the same period of last year was primarily attributable to the substantial decrease of the number of students enrolling in the comprehensive training programs, partially offset by the increase of revenue derived from the proprietary training courses.
 
 
29

 
Revenue from comprehensive training programs decreased from $3,162,563 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $1,374,889 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, which represents a decrease of $1,787,674, or 57%. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower enrollment of students in the comprehensive training programs for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, 2,566 courses were delivered to 740 students, with an average tuition of $1,232 per enrollment. In contrast, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, 974 courses were delivered to only 726 individual students, with an average tuition of $1,412 per enrollment. 
 
Revenue from proprietary training courses increased by $713,547, or 29%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to the same period of last year, primarily due to the increased average tuition from $614 per enrollment in the nine months ended September 30, 2011 to $1,233 per enrollment in the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The Company focused on promotional courses during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 aiming to enroll more students for the proprietary training courses.  As a result of our marketing efforts through the promotional courses, 4,073 students attended the proprietary trainings for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, while only 2,606 students attended the routine proprietary training courses in the nine months ended September 30, 2012. However, the tuition charged for promotional courses was much lower than the Company’s routine course offerings. The increase in average tuition was partially offset by the decreased student attendance during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.
 
Cost of revenue. Our cost of revenue decreased by approximately $3.5 million, or 65%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to the same period in 2011. The following table summarizes the cost of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively:

The decrease in our cost of sales was primarily due to the following reasons: 

First, the costs of lecturer’s compensation amounted to $320,224, or 16% of the total cost of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, representing a $1,173,396 decrease as compared to the corresponding period of 2011. The decrease in lecturer’s compensation was in line with the decreased student attendance. As discussed above, a total of 4,813 students attended the trainings during the nine months ended September 30, 2011, while 3,332 students attended the trainings for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. As fewer students attended the trainings, less lecturers' compensation was paid accordingly.
 
Second, the costs for hotel accommodation and conference rooms for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 decreased by $1,667,763, or 58%, as compared to same period of last year. The decrease in costs for hotel accommodation and conference room was primarily due to lower student enrollment as discussed above. In addition, in August 2011, we held a training conference in Australia named “Anthony Robin dating the life” which involved relatively expensive expenses associated with hotel accommodation and conferences. In addition,  in order to create a more comfortable educational environment for student trainings, we raised the hotel and conference room selection standards which led to higher hotel and conference room costs.

Third, the costs of administrative support decreased by $237,461, or 75%, to $80,038, or 4% of total cost of revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $317,499, or 6% of total cost of revenue for the same period in 2011. The decrease was due to the fact that many organizational tasks have been undertaken by our local student enrollment agents who helped to organize and coordinate trainings and promotional seminars. As a result, we incurred less administrative support costs in 2012.

Fourth, business sales taxes decreased by $386,046, or 59%, to $267,982 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $654,028 for the same period in 2011. We are subject to a 5% business sales tax calculated based on the invoiced amount upon student registration, not based on actual revenue recognized for the period indicated. The decrease in sales tax for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was due to the fact that the invoiced amount was less than in the same period of 2011.

Gross profit and gross margin. Our gross profit increased by $2.45 million, or 1,128%, to $2.67 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared with $0.21 million for the same period in 2011, due to decreased cost of revenue as discussed above. Our gross profit as a percentage of revenue increased to 58% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to 4% in the comparative period of the prior year for the same reasons.

Selling expenses. Our selling expenses mainly include advertising expense, sales commission paid to external agents for student recruiting and salaries paid to our own sales forces. Selling expenses increased by $201,178, or 8%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with the selling expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in our selling expenses  was primarily attributable to the increased sales commission paid to external recruiting agents who help us enroll students and coordinate the localized trainings. Such sales commission amounted to approximately $2.1 million, or 77% of our total selling expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. This outsourcing strategy enabled us to focus more on course design and training organization and arrangements rather than sales promotion.  As a result, selling expense was higher in 2012  than in 2011. We expect our selling and marketing expenses to remain relatively stable  in the near future as we continue to use outsourced sales agent to help promote our training courses and conduct part of the student recruiting tasks.

General and administrative expenses.  Our general administrative expense increased by $613,296, or 26%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period of last year. The increase was mainly due to the following reasons: (i) our employee salary expense increased because more well-trained personnel have been hired; (ii) we paid increased professional fees in connection with maintaining our public company status in the United States as well as restructuring our organization for the nine months ended September 30, 2012; (iii) our operating lease expense for renting our office space and executive housing also increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 due to inflation as compared to the same period of 2011.

We expect that our general and administrative expenses will continue to increase as we expand our business and operations

Provision for income tax. Our variable interest entities are governed by the income tax laws of the PRC and are subject to a statutory tax rate of 25% on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriate tax adjustments.  Due to the net operating loss, no income tax expense was necessary for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we incurred income taxes of $329,264. 

Net income (loss). As a result of the cumulative effect of the foregoing factors, we reported a net loss of $2.57 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to a net loss of $4.79 million for the same period of 2011, a decrease of $2.22 million, or 46%. The decrease in our net loss was due to decreased costs of revenue, offset by increased operating expense for the period indicated. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2012, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1.17 million. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through cash flows from operations. Based on our current operating plan, we believe that existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for our current operations.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $2,478,770 which mainly consisted of net loss of $2,571,924, offset by net changes in operating assets and liabilities due to our operating activities, including an increase in other receivable of $1,156,281 primarily related to increase in the hotel deposits and advance to employees and external agents for student enrollment purposes, an increase in customer deposits of  $2,042,579 representing amounts received in advance from students for tuition paid to attend our professional training courses and featured lectures.

Net cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $3,564,383 which mainly consisted of our net loss of $3,987,366, offset by net changes in operating assets and liabilities due to our operating activities, including a deferred tax benefit of $1,009,448 resulting from a net operating loss carry-forward. In addition, our advance to vendors increased by $778,156, which mainly represents our payments made to foreign lecturers. Our deferred revenue increased $4,037,794 which represents amounts received in advance from students for tuition paid to attend our professional training courses and featured lectures.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 amounted to $905 and $610,887 for capital expenditures, respectively, principally related to acquisition of property and equipment.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $158,516, representing the repayment of a shareholder loan to our Company.

There were no financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

As a result of the factors discussed above, as of September 30, 2012, we have $1.17 million available cash on hand. We expect to use our cash on hand to continue to expand and enhance marketing and sales in fiscal year 2012 and beyond.  Part of this strategy involves increasing and improving marketing and sales activities to enhance our market share and brand recognition of our key course offerings. Management also plans to selectively pursue strategic acquisition opportunities to further diversify our resources and expand our market coverage.

Obligations Under Material Contracts

We have no material obligations to pay cash or deliver cash to any other party.

Seasonality

Our operating results and operating cash flows historically have not been subject to seasonal variations.

 
32

 
Inflation

Inflation and changing prices have not had a material effect on our business, and we do not expect that inflation or changing prices will materially affect our business in the foreseeable future. However, our management will closely monitor price changes in the Chinese economy and our industry and continually maintain effective cost controls in operations.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, sales or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to an investment in our securities.
 
 
Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are those we believe are most important to portraying our financial conditions and results of operations and also require the greatest amount of subjective or complex judgments by management.  Judgments and uncertainties regarding the application of these policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under various conditions or using different assumptions.  There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
As required by Rule 13a-15(e), our management has carried out an evaluation, with the participation and under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Kaien Liang, and Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Zhiwei Huang, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2012. Based upon, and as of the date of this evaluation, Messieurs. Liang and Huang determined that, because of the material weakness described in Item 9A “Controls and Procedures” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, which we are still in the process of remediating as of September 30, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. Investors are directed to Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 for the description of this weakness.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.
 
During its evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, our management identified a material weakness related to our lack of sufficient accounting personnel with an appropriate understanding of United States generally accepted accounting principles and SEC reporting requirements. As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, our management has identified the steps necessary to address the material weakness, and in the third quarter of 2012, we continued to implement these remedial procedures.
 
Other than in connection with the implementation of the remedial measures described above, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the third quarter of 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
 
From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise, in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these, or other matters, may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
 
ITEM 1A.
RISK FACTORS.
 
If MYL Training School is liquidated, we will not be entitled to receive any amount in excess of the amount MYL Commercial originally injected into the school.
 
As the sponsor of Hangzhou Gongshu MYL Training School (“MYL Training School”), Hangzhou MYL Commercial Services Co., Ltd. (“MYL Commercial”) injected capital in the amount of RMB500,000 into MYL Training School. Under the Implementation Rules for the Law for Promoting Private Education, a PRC private school is a “non-profit undertaking” of which no individual or entity may claim ownership.  A sponsor of a PRC private school may not claim ownership of assets of the school because such assets are owned by the private school itself.  Therefore, if MYL Training School is liquidated, we will not be entitled to receive any amount in excess of the amount that MYL Commercial originally injected into the school and any increase in the value of MYL Training School would not be realized by us upon its liquidation.
 
ITEM 2.
UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
