GREAT CHINA INTERNATIONAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.             Description of business

Great China International Holdings, Inc., (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 4, 1987, under the name of Quantus Capital, Inc. The Company, through its various subsidiaries, is engaged in commercial and residential real estate leasing, management, consulting, investment, development and sales in the city of Shenyang, Liaoning Province, in the People’ Republic of China (“PRC”).

2.             Summary of significant accounting policies
 
Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for any future period. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. The results of the three month periods ended Mar 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2014.

Principles of consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances within the Company are eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates

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

Foreign currency translation

The Company uses the United States dollar for financial reporting purposes. The Company’s subsidiaries maintain their books and records in their functional currency - Chinese Yuan Renminbi (CNY), being the primary currency of the economic environment in which their operations are conducted. All assets and liabilities are translated at the current exchange rate, stockholder’s equity are translated at the historical rates and income statement and statement of cash flows items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows may not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive as a component of shareholders’ equity.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, including accounts in book overdraft positions, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and other receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company reserved $1,819,133 and $1,868,025 respectively, for other receivable bad debt, and $704,351 and $723,282, respectively, for accounts receivable bad debt. The Company also reserved $2,010,810 and $2,064,853 respectively for loans receivable.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment is being depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis over useful lives as follows:
 
4
 
 

 


Buildings
8-26 years
Equipment
5 years
Automobile
5 years
Office furniture and fixtures
5 years

Repairs and maintenance costs are normally charged to the statement of operations and other comprehensive income in the year in which they are incurred. In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that the expenditure has resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of the asset, the expenditure is capitalized as an additional cost of the asset.

Property and equipment are evaluated annually for any impairment in value. Where the recoverable amount of any property and equipment is determined to have declined below its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to reflect the decline in value. There were no property and equipment impairments recognized as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 respectively.

Properties held for rental

Properties include buildings held for rental and land use rights, which are being depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis over 20-26 years. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, net property held for rental amounted to $42,757,290 and $44,738,745 respectively. Accumulated depreciation of rental properties amounted to $30,957,783 as of March 31, 2014 and $30,957,503 as of December 31, 2013.

Revenue recognition

Rental income and management fee income – The Company recognizes the rental income on the straight-line basis over the terms of the tenancy agreements. The management fee, including the service fee mainly for property management, maintenance and repair, and security, is recognized quarterly over the terms of the tenancy agreements.

Real estate sales – Revenue from the sales of development properties is recognized by the full accrual method when the sale is consummated. A sale is not considered consummated until (1) the parties are bound by the terms of a contract, (2) all consideration has been exchanged, (3) any permanent financing of which the seller is responsible has been arranged, (4) all conditions precedent to closing have been performed, (5) the seller does not have substantial continuing involvement with the property, and (6) the usual risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer. Sales transactions not meeting all the conditions of the full accrual method are accounted for using the deposit method of accounting. Under the deposit method, all costs are capitalized as incurred, and payments received from the buyer are recorded as a deposit liability.

Real estate capitalization and cost allocation – Real estate held for development or sale is stated at cost or estimated net realizable value, whichever is lower. Costs include land and land improvements, direct construction costs and development costs, including predevelopment costs, interest on indebtedness, real estate taxes, insurance, construction overhead and indirect project costs. Selling and advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Total estimated costs of multi-unit developments are allocated to individual units based upon specific identification methods.
 
Impairment – If real estate is determined to be impaired, it will be written down to its fair market value. Real estate held for development or sale costs include the cost of land use rights, land development and home construction costs, engineering costs, insurance costs, wages, real estate taxes, and interest related to development and construction. All costs are accumulated by specific projects and allocated to residential and commercial units within the respective projects. The Company leases the land for the residential unit sites under land use rights with various terms from the government of the PRC. The Company evaluates the carrying value for impairment based on the undiscounted future cash flows of the assets. Write-downs of inventory deemed impaired would be recorded as adjustments to the cost basis. No depreciation is provided for construction in progress.

Other income

Other income consists of land leveling income, parking lot income, cleaning income and etc. This income was recognized as the services were performed and the settled amount has been paid in accordance with the terms of the agreement.

Loss per share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.

As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, there were no outstanding securities or other contracts to issue common stock, such as options, warrants or conversion rights, which would have a dilutive effect on earnings per share as the effect of options outstanding at that time was anti- dilutive.
 
5
 
 

 

Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach which allows for the recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets based upon the likelihood of realization of 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.
 
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the difference are expected to affect taxable income.

The Company records a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, if any, based on its estimates of its future taxable income as well as its tax planning strategies when it is more likely than not that a portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Concentrations of business and credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and other receivables arising from its normal business activities. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions. The Company maintains large sums of cash in two major banks in China. The aggregate balance in such accounts as of Mach 31, 2014 was $ 6,919,063. There is no insurance securing these deposits in China. The Company has a diversified customer base, most of which are in China.

The Company controls credit risk related to accounts receivable through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, based upon factors surrounding the credit risk, establishes an allowance, if required, for uncollectible accounts and, as a consequence, believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure beyond such allowance is limited.

Statement of cash flows

Cash flows from the Company's operations is calculated based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows may not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.

Recent accounting pronouncements


In March 2013, the FASB issued guidance on a parent company’s accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. This new guidance requires that the parent company releases any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. The new guidance will be effective for us beginning July 1, 2014. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued a new accounting standard which will require the presentation of certain unrecognized tax benefits as reductions to deferred tax assets rather than as liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets when a net operating loss carry-forward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carry-forward exists. The new standard requires adoption on a prospective basis in the first quarter of 2015; however, early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Other pronouncements issued by the FASB or other authoritative accounting standards group with future effective dates are either not applicable or not significant to the consolidated financial statements of the Company.
 
Reclassifications

Certain amounts in the 2013 financial statements may have been reclassified to conform to the 2014 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or retained earnings.

3.           Going concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a working capital deficit of $26,878,803 and $28,082,034 as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.  In addition, the Company has incurred net loss in the period ended March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 of $350,416 and $1,814,398 respectively.  As the Company has limited cash flow from operations, its ability to maintain normal operations is dependent upon obtaining adequate cash to finance its overhead, sales and marketing activities.  Additionally, in order for the Company to meet its financial obligations, including salaries, debt service and operations, it has maintained substantial short term bank loans that have historically been renewed each year.  The Company’s ability to meet its cash requirements for the next twelve months largely depends on the bank loans that involve interest expense requirements that reduce the amount of cash we have for our operations.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company is in the process of obtaining informal assurance from our current lender that our short term loans will continue to be renewed and further opening dialog with the lender to convert the short term loans to long term loans.  Additionally, the Company is assessing its ability to increase rental rates for its leasing business in order to generate additional revenue.  Further, the Company is continuing to focus efforts on cost containment to reduce general and administrative expenses.  With its relevant hands-on expertise, the Company also plans to expand operations to include property management.  The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

4.             Loans receivable

The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company.
 
During 2014 and 2013, the Company was organized into two main business segments: (1) Property for sale, and (2) Rental income and Income of management fee of commercial buildings.

Results of Operations

Comparison of operations for three months periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

The Company incurred a net loss of $350,416 for the first quarter of 2014, which is an improvement of $597,596 or 63.0%, compared with a net loss of $948,011 in the same period of 2013.  Components resulting in this improvement are discussed below.

●  
Sales revenues increased by $513,972 or 29.5% from $1,741,227 for the first quarter of 2013 to $2,255,199 for the same period of 2014.

●  
Rental income increased by $495,551 or 40.7% from $1,216,261 for the first quarter of 2013 to $1,711,812 for the same period of 2014, which is largely attributable to the Company increasing rental rates and area.

●  
Management fee income increased by $18,421 or 3.5% from $524,966 for the first quarter of 2013 to $543,387 for the same period of 2014.

There is no significant change for the cost of revenue in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the same period of 2013, which were $1,638,170 and $1,675,799 in the first quarter of 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The gross margin for the rental business was 33.3% and 6.1% for the first quarter of 2014 and 2013 respectively.  This increase was attributable to the company increased rental rate and area, at the same time the decoration cost decreased for the first quarter of 2014 compared with the same period of 2013.  The gross margin for the management business was 8.6% and negative 1.8% for the first quarter of 2014 and 2013, respectively.  This increase is mainly attributed to the cost decrease from maintenance in the first three-month period of 2014 compared to the same period of 2013.

Selling expenses decreased by $4,470 or 25.6% from $17,445 for the first quarter of 2013 to $12,975 for 2014 compared with the same period.  This decrease mainly attributed to the decrease of bonus for employees.

General and administrative expenses decreased by $106,391 or 19.0% from $558,543 for the first quarter of 2013 to $452,152 for the same period of 2014, the decrease mainly due to the Company incurred consulting fee $81,953 in the first quarter of 2013, but there is no such expense in the same period of 2014.

Depreciation and amortization was $4,511 and $4,631 in the first quarter of 2014 and 2013 respectively.

Interest and finance costs was $532,462 and $524,331 in the first quarter of 2014 and 2013 respectively, there was only a small change.

The Company earned $0 and $57,854 of income from disposal of parking lots in the first quarter of 2014 and 2013 respectively, which decreased by $57,854 or 100% for 2014 compared with 2013

Cash Flow Discussion

Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the first quarter of 2014 and 2013 were $39,903 and ($244,670), respectively.  The improvement in net cash flow amounted to $284,572 or 116.3%, which was due primarily to the below factors:

●  
the Company earned more rental income, which increased income by $495,551 in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the same period of 2013; and

●  
the Company reduced net loss by $597,595 due to operating improvement in the first quarter of 2014 compared to the same period of 2013.

Net cash flows used in investing activities for the three months periods of 2014 and 2013 were not significant.

Net cash flows used in financing activities were $0 and $281,236 for the first quarter of 2014 and 2013, respectively, which is a result of the Company receiving $281,236 of loan repayments from Beijing Sihai Estate Company in the first quarter of 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Current liabilities exceeded current assets by $26,878,802 as of March 31, 2014.  The Short Term Loans amounted to $21,201,982, and accounted for about 78.9% of the working capital deficit.  The Short Term Loans are bank loans due in June 2014 and October 2014, respectively, and are secured by the Company’s real estate assets.  It has become common practice in China, for banks and companies to renegotiate loan extensions on an annual basis.  This is driven by the ever changing banking regulatory environment and a situation where banks are becoming more conservative.  Under the circumstances, most lending banks have usually worked closely with borrowers for loan extension or restructuring within the administrative guidelines of the government.  As State policies are issued outside the control of the banks in China and form part of the macro and micro-economic measures, many bankers and their customers work together to deal with the situation provided the borrowers are responsible.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2013-02, which requires entities to present information about significant items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) by component either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or as a separate disclosure in the notes to the financial statements. This ASU is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. The adoption had not a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2013, the FASB issued guidance on a parent company’s accounting for the cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. This new guidance requires that the parent company releases any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. The new guidance will be effective for us beginning July 1, 2014. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued a new accounting standard which will require the presentation of certain unrecognized tax benefits as reductions to deferred tax assets rather than as liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets when a net operating loss carry-forward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carry-forward exists. The new standard requires adoption on a prospective basis in the first quarter of 2015; however, early adoption is permitted. We do not expect the adoption will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Other pronouncements issued by the FASB or other authoritative accounting standards group with future effective dates are either not applicable or not significant to the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

Item 3.                      Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

Disclosure under this item is not required of a smaller reporting company.

Item 4.                      Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in rules and forms adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
 
In connection with the preparation of this report, Great China International’s management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, reassessed the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2014.  Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that Great China International’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the fiscal quarter on March 31, 2014, to ensure that information that is required to be disclosed by Great China International in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within Great China International to disclose information that is otherwise required to be set forth in its periodic reports.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
