We were incorporated in the state of Delaware in 1987. Through our subsidiaries we invest in and operate companies that provide outsourcing services, telecom value-added services (VAS) and products (telecom & gaming) services in Asia, primarily Greater China, which includes the People's Republic of China (PRC), or mainland China, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), Macau Special Administrative Region, and Taiwan. PacificNet's operations include the following four groups:
 
 
·
Customer Relationship Management (CRM) and Outsourcing Services. We provide (1) Business Process Outsourcing (BPO), such as call centers, CRM and telemarketing services and (2) IT Outsourcing (ITO), such as software programming and development services.
 
 
·
Telecom Value-Added Services (VAS). We are value-added resellers and providers of Content Providing (CP), Platform Providing (PP) and Service Providing (SP) telecom VAS, such as interactive voice response (IVR) systems, call center management systems and voice over internet protocol (VOIP), as well as mobile phone VAS, such as short messaging services (SMS) and multimedia messaging services (MMS).
 
 
·
Telecom and Gaming Products and Services. Our telecom and gaming products and services include distribution services, multimedia interactive self-service kiosk distribution, online mobile phone distribution, and the design, manufacture, and marketing of gaming machines (Asian multi-player electronic gaming machines). In addition to gaming machines, we also offer the leading hotel, casino and slot hall operators based in Macau, China and other Asian gaming markets a wide range of gaming technology solutions including gaming related maintenance.
 
 
·
Other Business Services. We have a number of subsidiaries that we use primarily for administration, internal control and acquisition purposes. One of these subsidiaries is engaged in the air-conditioning subcontracting business.  
 
Beginning in late 2006, we launched our gaming product and technology business in Macau and Asia. Through our subsidiaries, including PacificNet Games Limited (“PacGames”) and Take1 Technologies Limited (“Take1”), we design, manufacture, and market electronic gaming machines (EGM), video lottery terminals (“VLTs”), Amusement with Prizes (AWP) machines, keno and bingo machines. We are also involved in gaming operations, in which we place participation games, including gaming machines linked to wide-area progressive (“WAP”) jackpot systems, local-area progressive (“LAP”) jackpot systems and non-linked, stand-alone gaming machines in legal gaming venues. We also license our game themes to third parties. We serve the gaming industry in Macau, Asia and Europe. We manufacture our gaming machines exclusively in Macau and China and we have development and distribution offices in Macau and Asia. We intend to continue to grow our business by acquiring and managing growing technology businesses with specialized gaming hardware and software products that provide our customers with state-of-the-art marketing, data management, accounting, security and gaming software applications and tools to more effectively cope with their fast growing Asian gaming operations.
 
We seek to develop games and gaming machines that offer high entertainment value and generate greater revenues for casinos and other gaming machine operators than what is currently offered by our competitors. Our gaming machines feature advanced graphics, digital sound and engaging game themes, and incorporate secondary bonus rounds and jackpot features. In designing our games and gaming machines, our designers, engineers, artists and development personnel build upon our years of experience in designing and developing entertaining and exciting games from multi-media entertainment kiosks, photo sticker kiosks, mobile phone kiosks, coin-op amusement kiosks, jukeboxes, to internet and mobile games and, now, to gaming machines for the casino industry.

In addition to our gaming operations, through our subsidiaries we also invest in and operate companies that provide outsourcing services, telecom value-added services (VAS) and telecom products and services. Our business process outsourcing (BPO) services group includes call centers, providing customer relationship management (CRM), and telemarketing services. Our information technology outsourcing (ITO) includes software programming and development. We are value-added resellers and providers of telecom VAS, which comprises interactive voice response (IVR) systems, call center management systems and voice over internet protocol (VOIP), as well as mobile phone VAS, such as short messaging services (SMS) and multimedia messaging services (MMS). Our telecom products and services include IT and distribution services, and online mobile phone distribution,. We also have a number of subsidiaries that we use primarily for administration, internal control and acquisition purposes.
 
Our business process outsourcing services generate revenues from call center services, call center management software sales, and training and consulting. We invoice our call center clients monthly at per seat monthly rates, a base price plus commission per call, or a per hour charge rate, depending on the client's preference. Our call center software clients pay per license, for which there is usually a one-time charge on sale of the software and annual maintenance fees for service. We charge per project for our consulting and training services and for our telecom VAS, which are invoiced throughout the project. Our telecom VAS often includes a post-sale service contract for systems integration and consulting services for which we bill separately. Our products (telecom & gaming) service group generates revenue from two main streams. We generate revenue from the sale of entertainment kiosks and cell phones (which are sold cash-on-delivery), and we generate revenue from the sale of Asian multi-player electronic gaming machines and gaming technology solutions. Going forward, we intend to earn gaming operations revenue from offering our customers a wide range of lease and rental options, and earn royalty income from game content licensing agreement.

GAMING TECHNOLOGY INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
 
Gaming and casino operators constantly seek to increase revenue growth and profitability at their casinos or slot halls. The importance of gaming machine revenue to casino operators’ profitability has created demand for gaming machines that have the ability to generate superior net win. As a result, the pace of innovation in game design continues to accelerate, and gaming equipment manufacturers have increasingly focused on enhancing the overall entertainment value and appeal of games and gaming machines. We believe the development of electronic gaming machines with localized Chinese and Asian themes and contents will present the largest opportunity for us as one of the few domestic Chinese and Asian gaming machine developers. We believe that server-based gaming will be the next significant technology development in the gaming machine industry. Server-based gaming initiatives will require regulatory approval in gaming jurisdictions prior to any implementation.
 
VLTs are sold, leased to, or operated as participation games by government agencies that desire to raise revenue for the jurisdictions in which they operate. Most VLTs are linked to a central computer for accounting and security purposes and are monitored by state lotteries or other government authorities. Unlike gaming machines designed for the casino market, most VLTs are located in places where casino-type gaming is not the principal attraction, such as racetracks, bars and restaurants. In the recent years, many countries in Europe have enacted legislation permitting VLTs.

GAMING BUSINESS STRATEGY
 
Our business strategy is to increase our market penetration in major regulated gaming jurisdictions worldwide by developing entertaining products and providing outstanding service. We plan to do this by leveraging our product development expertise to introduce innovative new games. We have almost 5 years of experience developing multi-media entertainment kiosks, fun, humorous and exciting internet and mobile games in Macau, Hong Kong, China, and other Asian countries. Over the past few years, we have enhanced our game development efforts by adding key management, design personnel and software engineers to our product development group. We have expanded new gaming software and hardware R&D facilities in Beijing, Shenzhen, Zhuhai and Macau and organized our game development teams into workgroup units to help promote innovation while maintaining a focused development approach in an effort to maximize the localized Chinese entertainment value of our products. We believe that our proven game development capabilities, combined with the additional functionalities and enhanced features of our new gaming platform, will enable us to increase our market share in the fast growing gaming markets in Macau, China, and Asia.
 
BUSINESS OPERATION HIGHLIGHTS OF 2006
 
ENTRY INTO GAMING TECHNOLOGY BUSINESS
 
During the year we took decisive measures to address the negative impact on our overall profitability as a result of China Mobile’s VAS policy change and the increasingly competitive telecom products market in China. These measures included considering strategic alternatives for our low-margin telecom businesses, such as sales, spin-offs and mergers and turning our focus to the higher margin and rapidly expanding gaming and entertainment industries. To do this, in September 2006, we opened an office in Macau. By leveraging the entertainment software and hardware development expertise of our CRM and telecom businesses in combination with the access to market of our newly-acquired PacificNet Games Limited subsidiary, we seek to brand ourselves as a leading gaming technology provider in the emerging gaming markets in Macau and Asia. We believe that due to the success of our new generation Asian oriented gaming software, our gaming business has begun to draw the attention of some other first tier gaming operators in Macau, North Asia, South America and Italy. Going forward, while we are focused on increasing market share in the aforementioned rapidly growing gaming markets, we intend to take full benefit of our first-mover advantage in the Asian market by entering into long term gaming software licensing and servicing agreements with both land-based and on-line gaming operators in those less developed Southern Asian gaming markets, in particular the Philippines and Cambodia.

PRIVATE PLACEMENT OF CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES AND WARRANTS
 
On March 13, 2006, we completed a private placement in which we sold $8,000,000 in convertible debentures and issued warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 400,000 shares of common stock. The debentures are convertible at any time into shares of our common stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $10.00 per share, subject to adjustments for certain dilutive events. The debentures are due March 13, 2009. The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years at an exercise price of $12.20 per share. We will pay interest in shares, provided that certain conditions are met, or in cash at the rate of 6% for the second year the debentures are outstanding and then 7% for the third year.

Under the terms of a registration rights agreement entered into at the time of the private placement, the Company was obligated to file a registration statement with respect to the shares issuable under the debenture and the warrants by April 30, 2006, and have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC no later than June 28, 2006. Due to various factors, the Company did not file the registration statement until May 15, 2006, and it was not declared effective until December 8, 2006. Therefore, under the terms of the registration rights agreement, the Company was obligated to pay liquidated damages to the investors at the rate of 2% of the principal amount of the debenture each month beginning on June 28, 2006 until the effectiveness of the registration statement, which was equal to $1,120,000, in the aggregate.

In February 2007, upon reaching an agreement on the amount and payment of accrued liquidated damages, the Company signed a Settlement and Release Agreement with each of the investors. Under the terms of the Settlement and Release Agreements, the Company paid an aggregate $140,000 in cash as satisfaction in full of liquidated damages owed to Basso Fund Ltd., Basso Multi-Strategy Holding Fund Ltd., and Basso Private Opportunities Holding Fund Ltd.. Partial liquidated damages owed to Whalehaven Capital Fund Ltd. were paid in the amount of $35,000 in cash, with the remaining liquidated damanges in the amount of $105,000 paid in the form of a new convertible debenture due February 2009, on substantially the same terms as the original debentures, except that interest only is paid on the new debentures until October 2008 and beginning in November 2008 until February 2009, when the new debentures are due, the monthly redemption amount under the new debentures shall be equal to $315,000. The remaining investors also agreed to accept the aggregate $840,000 in liquidated damages owed to them in the form of the new convertible debentures for the amount of their respective portion of the liquidated damages. The Company also agreed to amend the original debentures to shorten the term for payment of the original principal amount to a 22 month term. As a result the monthly redemption amount for the original debentures increased from $320,000 to $ 363,638. All other terms and conditions of the original debenture remains in full force and effect.
 
ADDITIONAL ACQUISITION OF PACIFICNET GAMES LIMITED
 
On November 9, 2006, we acquired an additional 6% interest in PacificNet Games Limited (PacGames) for a consideration of $504,000 being 90,000 PACT restricted shares. Prior to this, in connection with the acquisition of Able Entertainment, previously announced during the Q3 2006, we owned 45% of PacGames. We now own 51% of PacGames.

On November 20, 2006, PacificNet executed an agreement ("Termination Agreement") to terminate the Sale and Purchase Agreement with Lion Zone, ChinaGoHi and Mr. Wang Wenming (collectively, the "Sellers"). The Termination Agreement was effective as of November 1, 2006. In the Termination Agreement, the Sellers agreed to pay an aggregate of HKD$3,000,000, comprising: USD$100,000 in cash and 275,000 in restricted shares of PACT, in exchange for 51% interest of Lion Zone, holding company of ChinaGoHi. Additionally, the Sellers agreed to waive PacificNet's obligations under the Sale and Purchase Agreement entered into between PacificNet and the Sellers in December 2005 to issue restricted shares and to provide certain loans to the Sellers. PacificNet, however, reserves the rights to re-purchase the said 51% interest of Lion Zone within 2 years of the date of signing the Termination Agreement for a consideration of 5 times audited net profit under US GAAP for the 12-month period subsequent to the year of signing.
 
The decision to terminate the Sale and Purchase Agreement was due to ChinaGoHi’s inability to obtain the approval of, and get the necessary license to operate from, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”) and the Chinese Broadcasting Bureau.  We have previously disclosed in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission that in the past, the Chinese government has stopped the distribution of information that it believes violates PRC law over the Internet or through VAS.  We have disclosed the risk that if the PRC government were to take any action to limit or prohibit the distribution of information through our networks or via our VAS, or to limit or regulate any current or future content or services available to users on our network, our business could be significantly harmed.  In July 2006, the Chinese Broadcasting Bureau along with the CSRC banned the TV membership sales model, which was the model ChinaGo Hi employed in its business. The Sale and Purchase Agreement provided that if ChinaGoHi or Lion Zone was banned or in any way restricted from conducting business under the existing or new PRC laws or legislation during the period from signing the Sale and Purchase Agreement to July 1, 2006, and ChinaGoHi failed to change its business model in good faith to adapt to the new regulations, and such failure resulted in any shortcoming of the accumulated net profit, ChinaGoHi and Lion Zone would return to PacInvest all the cash and shares they obtained under the Agreement.

GAMING TECHNOLOGY OPERATIONS
 
Our gaming technology operations business includes the following:
 
1. Participation games

Company-owned gaming machines that we lease based upon any of the following payment methods are referred to as participation games: (1) a percentage of the net win of the gaming machines, (2) fixed daily fees, or (3) in the case of wide-area progressive gaming machines, a percentage of the amount wagered or a combination of a fixed daily fee and a percentage of the amount wagered.
 
2. Wide Area Game Network, Community Gaming

Wide Area Progressive Jackpots (WAP) participation games electronically link gaming machines that are located across multiple casinos within a gaming jurisdiction. The linked gaming machines contribute to and compete for large, system-wide progressive jackpots and are designed to increase gaming machine play for participating casinos by giving the players the opportunity to win a larger jackpot than on a stand-alone gaming machine.
 
3. Local Area Progressive Jackpots (LAP) participation games

A LAP system electronically links gaming machines that are located within a single casino to a progressive jackpot for that specific casino. Our LAP products are designed to give the player the chance to win multiple progressive jackpots.
 
4. Video Lottery Terminals
 
Our VLTs include video gaming machines featured with localized Chinese and Asian themes and contents, advanced graphics, digital sound effects and music and incorporate many of the same features from our other gaming machines. We offer a variety of multi-game and single-themed VLTs. Our VLTs may be operated as stand-alone units or may interface with central monitoring computers operated by government agencies. Our VLTs typically are located in places where casino-type gaming is not the principal attraction, such as racetracks, bars and restaurants. We began offering VLTs in 2007. In certain jurisdictions, VLT operators purchase our VLTs and we classify the revenue from these purchases as product sales revenues. In other jurisdictions, VLT operators lease our VLTs and pay us a lease rate based on the net earnings of the gaming machine. We classify the lease payments as gaming operations revenues. We do not include VLTs in our installed base of participation games.

5. Server-based Gaming
 
PacificNet believes that server-based gaming (“SBG”) will be the next significant technology development in the gaming machine industry. Server-based gaming refers to a gaming system in which game content and peripherals are configured, maintained and refreshed over a network that links groups of gaming machines to a remote server that also enables custom configuration by operators and central determination of game outcomes. Server-based gaming initiatives will require regulatory approval in gaming jurisdictions prior to any implementation and represent a significant addition to our existing portfolio of product offerings. Our implementation for SBG emphasizes localized Chinese and Asian game themes and excitement for the Asian players. In a networked environment, we believe game play will no longer be limited to an individual gaming machine; rather, we believe SBG will permit game play to be communal among multiple players.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION
 
We operate our business in China under a legal regime that consists of the State Council, which is the highest authority of the executive branch of the PRC central government, and several ministries and agencies under its leadership, including:
 
13

 
 
·
The Ministry of Information Industry (MII)
 
·
The China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC)
 
·
The Ministry of Culture
 
·
The General Administration of Press and Publication of the P.R. China
 
·
The State Copyright Bureau
 
·
The State Administration of Industry and Commerce (SAIC)
 
·
The Ministry of Public Security
 
·
The Ministry of Commerce
 
The State Council and these ministries and agencies have issued a series of rules that regulate a number of different substantive areas of our business, which are discussed below.
 
FOREIGN OWNERSHIP RESTRICTION ON BUSINESSES ENGAGED IN PROVIDING INTERNET CONTENT
 
We cannot hold the licenses and obtain the approvals necessary to operate the website because those licenses and approvals cannot be held by foreign entities or majority foreign-owned entities. PRC regulations currently limit foreign ownership of companies that provide Internet content services to 50%. This limitation extends to our IVR, call center e-commence and telecom VAS and to our business of providing financial information and data to Internet users. To comply with this foreign ownership restriction, with respect to our Internet content services, we operate our website in China for example through Beijing Xing Chang Xin Science and Technology Development Co. Limited ("Xinchangxin") which is 100% owned by Mr. Liu Lei and Gao Chunhui, the Chairman and CEO of Xinchangxin, who are both PRC citizen. Under PRC law, BEIJING PACIFICNET IMOBILE TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD., PRC registered wholly owned foreign enterprise (IMOBILE-WOFE), conducts it VAS and e-commerce operations with Beijing Xing Chang Xin Science and Technology Development Co. Limited ("Imobile-DE"), a PRC registered Domestic Enterprise (DE), through a series of contractual agreements. Under these agreements, the shareholders of Imobile-DE are required to transfer their ownership in these entities to our subsidiaries when permitted by PRC laws and regulations and all voting rights are assigned to us. Through Imobile-WOFE, we have also entered into a consulting and services agreements with Imobile-DE, under which Imobile-WOFE provides technical services and other services to Imobile-DE in exchange for all of the net income of Imobile-DE. In addition, the shareholders of Imobile-DE have pledged their shares in Imobile-DE as collateral for non-payment of fees for the services we provide.
 
There are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of current or future PRC laws and regulations with respect to our acquisition model. In the opinion of our in-house PRC legal counsel, our current ownership structure, the contractual arrangements among our wholly owned subsidiaries and the operating company and their shareholders comply with all existing applicable PRC laws, rules and regulations. We cannot assure that the PRC regulatory authorities will not ultimately take a view that is contrary to the opinion of our PRC legal counsel. If the PRC government finds that the agreements that establish the structure of our operations in China do not comply with PRC government restrictions on foreign investment in our industry, we could be subject to severe penalties.
 
LICENSES AND PERMITS
 
There are a number of aspects of our business which require us to obtain licenses from a variety of PRC regulatory authorities. For example, in order to host our website, Xinchangxin is required to hold an Internet content provider, or ICP, license issued by the Ministry of Information Industry or its local offices. Xinchangxin currently holds an ICP license issued by Ministry of Information Industry Beijing department.
 
REGULATION OF INTERNET CONTENT
 
The PRC government has promulgated measures relating to Internet content through a number of ministries and agencies, including the Ministry of Information Industry, the Ministry of Culture and the State Press and Publications Administration. These measures specifically prohibit Internet activities that result in the publication of any content which is found to, among other things, propagate obscenity, gambling or violence, instigate crimes, undermine public morality or the cultural traditions of the PRC, or compromise State security or secrets. If an ICP license holder violates these measures, the PRC government may revoke its ICP license and shut down its websites. Xinchangxin's ICP license expressly states that it is not allowed to publish news, among other things, in relation to its Internet content provision. Specifically, Shenzhen, Beijing and Guangzhou branches of the General Administration of Press and Publication of the PRC, the government authority regulating news publication, confirmed with us that so long as we do not provide general news on politics, society or culture, or establish a "news column," or provide such information under express heading of "news," we are not required to obtain a license to publish financial or economic related news content.
 
REGULATION OF INFORMATION SECURITY
 
Internet content in China is also regulated and restricted by the PRC government to protect State security. The National People's Congress, China's national legislative body has enacted a law that may subject to criminal punishment in China any effort to: (1) gain improper entry into a computer or system of strategic importance; (2) disseminate politically disruptive information; (3) leak State secrets; (4) spread false commercial information; or (5) infringe intellectual property rights.
 
14

The Ministry of Public Security has promulgated measures that prohibit use of the Internet in ways which, among other things, result in a leakage of State secrets or a spread of socially destabilizing content. The Ministry of Public Security has supervision and inspection rights in this regard and we may be subject to the jurisdiction of the local security bureaus. If an ICP license holder violates these measures, the PRC government may revoke its ICP license and shut down its websites.
 
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
 
The State Council and the State Copyright Bureau have promulgated various regulations and rules relating to protection of software in China. Under these regulations and rules, software owners, licensees and transferees should register their rights in software with the State Copyright Bureau or its local offices and obtain software copyright registration certificates. Although such registration is not mandatory under PRC law, software owners, licensees and transferees are encouraged to go through the registration process. Therefore persons with registered software rights may receive better protection. We have registered all of our self-developed software with the State Copyright Bureau.
 
PRC law requires owners of Internet domain names to register their domain names with qualified domain name registration agencies approved by the Ministry of Information Industry and obtain a registration certificate from such registration agencies. A registered domain name owner has an exclusive use right over its domain name. Unregistered domain names may not receive proper legal protections and may be misappropriated by unauthorized third parties. Our primary domain names are registered with CNNIC, a domain name registration agency approved by the Ministry of Information Industry. In addition, we have registered another domain name, www.FMM88.com, with the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, or ICANN, an internationally organized, non-profit corporation that has responsibility for Internet Protocol (IP) address space allocation.
 
PRIVACY PROTECTION
 
PRC law does not prohibit Internet content providers from collecting and analyzing personal information from their users. On our website, our users are required to accept a user agreement whereby they agree to provide certain personal information to us. PRC law prohibits Internet content providers from disclosing to any third parties any information transmitted by users through their networks unless otherwise permitted by law. If an Internet content provider violates these regulations, the Ministry of Information Industry or its local offices may impose penalties and the Internet content provider may be liable for damages caused to its users.
 
ADVERTISING REGULATION
 
PRC law requires entities conducting advertising activities to obtain an advertising permit from the SAIC's local offices. Entities conducting advertising activities without such permit may be charged a fine or imposed other penalties by the SAIC's local offices. Currently, foreign investors cannot own more than 70% equity interest in an advertising agency.
 
INTERNATIONAL REGULATION
 
Many foreign jurisdictions permit the importation, sale and/or operation of gaming equipment in casino and non-casino environments. Where importation is permitted, some countries prohibit or restrict the payout feature of the legacy slot machine or limit the operation of slot machines to a controlled number of casinos or casino-like locations. Each gaming machine must comply with the individual jurisdiction’s regulations. Some jurisdictions require the licensing of gaming machine operators and manufacturers. We manufacture and supply gaming equipment to various international markets including Asia, Australia, Canada, Europe, South America and South Africa. We have the required licenses to manufacture and distribute our products in the foreign jurisdictions in which we do business.
 
COMPETITION
 
Competition in the New Gaming Technology Business:
 
The electronic gaming machine (EGM) market is intensely competitive and is characterized by the continuous introduction of new game titles and new technologies. Our ability to compete successfully in this market is based, in large part, upon our ability to:
 
·
Create an expanding and constantly refreshed portfolio of games with high earnings performance
·
Offer gaming machines that consistently out-perform gaming machines manufactured by our competitors
·
Identify and develop or obtain rights to commercially marketable intellectual properties
·
Adapt our products for use with new technologies
 
In addition, successful competition in this market is based upon:
 
·
Engineering innovation and reliability
·
Mechanical and electronic reliability
·
Brand recognition
·
Marketing and customer support
·
Competitive prices and lease terms
 
15

We estimate that about 25 companies in the world manufacture gaming machines and video lottery terminals (VLTs) for legalized gaming markets. Of these companies, we believe that International Game Technology (“IGT”), Shuffle Master/ StarGames, WMS Industries, Bally Technologies (formerly Alliance Gaming), Aristocrat Technologies, Novomatic, Atronic Casino Technology, and Lottomatica’s recently acquired subsidiary G-Tech Holdings have a majority of this worldwide market. In the video gaming machine market, we compete with market leader IGT, as well as Aristocrat Technologies, Bally Technologies, Atronic Casino Technology, Progressive Gaming, Konami, Franco and Unidesa. In the VLT market, we compete primarily with IGT, G-Tech Holdings and Scientific Games.
 
Our competitors vary in size from small companies with limited resources to a few large corporations with greater financial, marketing and product development resources than ours. The larger competitors, particularly IGT, have an advantage in being able to spend greater amounts than us to develop new technologies, games and features that are attractive to players and customers. In addition, some of our competitors have developed, sell or otherwise provide to customers security, centralized player tracking and accounting systems which allow casino operators to accumulate accounting and performance data about the operation of gaming machines. We do not currently offer these systems. Several of our competitors pooled their intellectual property patents that provide cashless gaming alternatives, specifically ticket-in ticket-out technology, so that when a casino patron cashes out from a gaming machine they may receive a printed ticket instead of coins.
 
Competition in our Legacy CRM and Telecom Business:
 
We expect competition to persist and intensify in the future. Our competitors include small firms offering specific applications, divisions of large entities and large independent firms. A number of competitors have or may develop greater capabilities and resources than ours. We face the risk that new competitors with greater resources than ours will enter our market. Our competitors are mainly leaders in the CRM and VAS markets. Competitive pressures from current or future competitors could cause our services to lose market acceptance or require a significant reduction in the price of our services.

GAMING MACHINE MANUFACTURING
 
We manufacture all of our gaming machines at our facilities in Shenzhen and Zhuhai, China. In 2007, we began reconfiguring our assembly lines in order to lower our product lead times and effectively increase our practical capacity with added production efficiencies.
 
Manufacturing commitments are generally based on sales orders from customers. In some cases, however, component parts are purchased and assembled into finished goods that are inventoried in order to be able to quickly fill anticipated customer orders. Our manufacturing process generally consists of assembling component parts to complete a gaming machine. We generally warranty our gaming machines sold internationally for a period of 180 days to one year.
 
16

The raw materials used in manufacturing our gaming machines include various metals, plastics, wood, glass and numerous component parts, including electronic subassemblies, main boards and circuit boards, money acceptors, and LCD screens. We believe that our sources of supply of component parts and raw materials are generally adequate.
 
In order to improve the efficiency of our manufacturing processes and reduce time to market, we continue to make improvements in sourcing and supply management, in inventory and warehouse management, and other manufacturing processes We also have ongoing manufacturing initiatives, such as enhanced strategic sourcing and supplier management, value engineering the product and designing product for both ease of manufacturability and installation, that we expect will help improve gross margins in future quarters.
 
The European Union (“EU”) has adopted the Restriction on the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (“RoHS”) directive to facilitate the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment sold in the EU. The RoHS directive restricts the use of lead, mercury, and certain other substances in electrical and electronic products placed on the market in the EU after July 1, 2006. We have worked with our suppliers to develop RoHS-compliant products and, as of the effective date of the directive, we were able to provide RoHS-compliant gaming machines to the EU. We expect that any cost increases incurred due to the RoHS directive will be offset by savings from design and other changes we made to our component parts.
 
EMPLOYEES
 
As of December 31, 2006, together with our subsidiaries, we had approximately 1,500 employees and contractors. We have not experienced any labor stoppages. None of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. The breakdown of number of employees for each of the business units of the Company is as follows:

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
 
Our gaming research and development department is dedicated to developing fun and exciting electronic table games and slot machines that focus on enhancing Asian player entertainment value and to introducing leading, innovative systems products that increase our customers’ revenue stream and facilitates operating efficiencies. Our dedicated Zhuhai (China) R&D center has approximately 31 employees who possesses significant experience in software development and content design. Our current emphasis is on developing new technologies to expand and improve functionalities of Multiplayer Electronic Gaming Machines, Online Game Software Development, Slot Machines, including software, hardware and cabinets, and developing new game content through third parties to refresh and grow our installed base of gaming devices.
 
We conduct extensive testing on the products we offer to ensure they meet the key performance and quality standards as required by gaming regulators. In addition, our R&D personnel constantly work with our customers on responding to their needs and to also ensure compatibility with other products currently available in the market. Moreover, we closely monitor the evolving standards in the gaming industry so that we are able to respond and address new technologies as they emerge.
 
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
 
We believe our trademarks, intellectual property rights, and propriety Asian gaming software product development expertise are significant assets. Currently, we have over five customized Asian gaming products. This portfolio took over three years to develop and is expected to be a main focus of our R&D resources in 2007 and beyond. Our firm will continue to evolve as we look towards the next generation of server-based gaming products. In addition to internally developed and acquired emerging gaming technologies, we will also rely on strategic partnerships to obtain access to intellectual property.
 
We intend to vigorously protect the investment in our intellectual property and the unique features of our products and services by actively applying to intellectual property patent protection. However, we cannot ensure that intellectual property rights will not be infringed.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
 
THE FOLLOWING MATTERS MAY HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL CONDITION, AND LIQUIDITY, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OR PROSPECTS, FINANCIAL OR OTHERWISE. REFERENCE TO THIS CAUTIONARY STATEMENT IN THE CONTEXT OF A FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT OR STATEMENTS SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A STATEMENT THAT ANY ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING FACTORS MAY CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE IN SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT OR STATEMENTS.
 
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
 
We have a limited operating history and recently experienced a significant increase in revenue that may not be sustained.
 
Our business operations commenced in 1994, and subsequently the business was incorporated as a Delaware corporation in 1999. Our operating history may be insufficient to evaluate our business and future prospects. Although our revenues have grown rapidly in the past three years, primarily as a result of our increased acquisition activity, we cannot assure investors that we will maintain our profitability or that we will not incur net losses in the future. We expect that our operating expenses will increase as we expand. Any significant failure to realize anticipated revenue growth could result in significant operating losses. We will continue to encounter risks and difficulties in implementing our business model, including our potential failure to:
 
 
·
Increase awareness of our brands, protect our reputation and develop customer loyalty
 
·
Manage our expanding operations and service offerings, including the integration of any future acquisitions
 
·
Maintain adequate control of our expenses
 
·
Anticipate and adapt to changing conditions in the markets in which we operate as well as the impact of any changes in government regulation, mergers and acquisitions involving our competitors, technological developments and other significant competitive and market dynamics
 
If we are not successful in addressing any or all of these risks, our business may be materially and adversely affected.
 
The acquisition of new businesses is costly and such acquisitions may not enhance our financial condition.
 
Our growth strategy is to acquire companies and identify and acquire assets and technologies from businesses in greater China that have services, products, technologies, industry specializations or geographic coverage that extend or complement our existing business. The process to undertake a potential acquisition is time-consuming and costly. We expend significant resources to undertake business, financial and legal due diligence on our potential acquisition target and there is no guarantee that we will acquire the company after completing due diligence. Any future acquisitions will be subject to a number of challenges, including:
 
 
·
Diversion of management time and resources and the potential disruption of our ongoing business
 
·
Difficulties in maintaining uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies
 
·
Potential unknown liabilities associated with acquired businesses
 
·
Difficulty of retaining key alliances on attractive terms with partners and suppliers
 
·
Difficulty of retaining and recruiting key personnel and maintaining employee morale
 
Our acquisitions could result in the use of substantial amounts of cash, potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, significant amortization expenses related to goodwill and other intangible assets and exposure to undisclosed or potential liabilities of acquired companies. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, we acquired controlling interests in Guangzhou Wanrong, iMobile and PacGames. We expect that these acquisitions will strengthen our position as a provider of VAS communication products: internet mobile phone distribution and gaming technology in Asia. Although our agreements provide that the consideration is payable upon the acquired company attaining certain income milestones annually, there is no guarantee that these milestones will be reached. If they are not reached as anticipated, the time, cost and capital to acquire the company may outweigh the anticipated benefits from consolidation of their income. To the extent that the goodwill arise from the acquisitions carried on the financial statements do not pass the annual goodwill impairment test, excess goodwill will be charged to future earnings.
 
We intend to operate each of our acquired businesses on a standalone basis.
 
We do not intend to integrate the information or communications systems, management, or other aspects of the businesses we acquire. If we integrated the businesses, we might be able to reduce expenses by eliminating duplicative personnel, facilities, or technology and other costs. In addition, facilities and technology integration might make inter-company communications and transactions more efficient. By declining to integrate the acquired businesses, we might forego opportunities to operate more profitably. Furthermore, our decision not to integrate these businesses might result in difficulties in evaluating the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, which could complicate compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
 
19

 
Because we do not have employment agreements with management of the acquired companies, our business operations might be interrupted if they were to resign.
 
As part of our acquisition strategy, we do not use our own employees or members of our management team to operate the acquired companies. Key management at these companies has been in place for several years and has established solid relationships with their customers. Competition in our industry for executive-level personnel is strong and we can make no assurance that we will be able to retain the highly effective executive employees. Although we provide incentives to management to stay with the acquired business, we have not entered into employment agreements with them. If such key persons were to resign we might face impairment of relationships with remaining employees or customers, which might result in further resignation by employees, and might cause long-term clients to terminate their relationship with us. Furthermore, we have not entered into any non-competition and confidentiality agreements with these employees and management. Due to the limited enforceability of these types of agreements in China, we face the risk that employees of the acquired subsidiaries might divulge our software and other protected intellectual property secrets to competitors.
 
We may not be able to attract or retain the management or employees necessary to remain competitive in our industries. Tony Tong, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Victor Tong, our President, are essential to our ability to continue to grow through acquisitions Messrs. Tong and Tong have established relationships within our industry. Their business contacts have been critical in identifying, and negotiating with acquisition candidates and in developing and expanding our gaming operations.
 
Our future success depends on the retention and continued contributions of our key management, finance, marketing, and staff personnel, many of whom would be difficult or impossible to replace. Our success is also tied to our ability to recruit additional key personnel in the future. We may not be able to retain our current personnel or recruit any additional key personnel required. The loss of services of any of our personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. If either of them were to leave our employ, our growth strategy might be hindered, which could limit our ability to increase revenue.
 
The establishment and expansion of international operations requires significant management attention.
 
All of our current, as well as any anticipated future revenue, are or are expected to be derived from Asia. Our international operations are subject to risks, including the following, which, if not planned and managed properly, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results: 
 
 
·
Legal uncertainties or unanticipated changes regarding regulatory requirements, liability, export and import restrictions, tariffs and other trade barriers
 
·
Longer customer payment cycles and greater difficulties in collecting accounts receivable
 
·
Uncertainties of laws and enforcement relating to the protection of intellectual property and potentially uncertain or adverse tax consequences
 
Our operations could be curtailed if we are unable to obtain required additional financing.
 
Since inception our investments and operations primarily have been financed through sales of our common stock. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, we completed a financing in which we placed $8,000,000 in convertible debentures and issued warrants to purchase up to 400,000 shares of common stock. In the future we may need to raise additional funds through public or private financing, which may include the sale of equity securities, including securities convertible into our common stock. The issuance of these equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. If we are unable to raise capital when needed, our business growth strategy may slow, which could severely limit our ability to increase revenue.
 
Fluctuations in the value of the Hong Kong Dollar or RMB relative to foreign currencies could affect our operating results.
 
We have historically conducted transactions with customers outside the United States in United States dollars. Payroll and other costs of foreign operations are payable in foreign currencies, primarily Hong Kong dollars and Chinese renminbi. To the extent future revenue is denominated in foreign currencies, we would be subject to increased risks relating to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations that could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition and operating results. The value of Hong Kong dollars and Chinese renminbi against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by changes in the PRC's political and economic conditions. As our operations are primarily in Asia, any significant revaluation of Hong Kong dollars or the Chinese renminbi may materially and adversely affect our cash flows, revenue and financial condition. For example, we may need to convert U.S. dollars into Hong Kong dollars or Chinese renminbi as appreciation of either currency against the U.S. dollar could have a material adverse effect on results of our business, financial condition and operations. Conversely, if we decide to convert our Hong Kong dollars or Chinese renminbi into U.S. dollars for other business purposes and the U.S. dollar appreciates against either currency, the U.S. dollar equivalent of the respective currency we convert would be reduced. To date, we have not engaged in any hedging transactions in connection with our international operations.
 
20

 
We have never paid cash dividends and are not likely to do so in the foreseeable future.
 
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business. We do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future but will review this policy as circumstances dictate.
 
RISKS RELATED TO OUR GAMING BUSINESS
 
If we fail to keep pace with rapid innovations in product design and related marketing strategies, or if we are unable to quickly adapt our development and manufacturing processes to release innovative products or systems, our business could be negatively impacted.
 
Our future success depends to a large extent upon our ability to continue to rapidly design and market technologically sophisticated and entertaining products that achieve high levels of player acceptance. Our revenues depend on the earning power and life span of our games. Newer game themes tend to have a shorter life span than more legacy game themes, and as a result, we face pressure to design and deploy successful game themes to maintain our revenue stream and to remain competitive. Our ability to develop new and innovative products could be adversely affected by :an inability to roll out new games, services or systems on schedule as a result of delays in connection with regulatory product approval in the applicable jurisdictions, or otherwise.
 
Our future success also depends upon our ability to adapt our manufacturing capabilities and processes to meet the demands of producing new and innovative products. Because our newer products are generally more technologically sophisticated than those we have produced in the past, we must continually refine our production capabilities to meet the needs of continuing product innovation. In addition, the shorter lifespan of newer products means that we must update our production capabilities more frequently and rapidly than in the past. If we cannot adapt our manufacturing infrastructure to meet the needs of our product innovations, or if we are unable to make upgrades to our production capacity in a timely manner, our business could be negatively impacted.
 
If the current popularity and acceptance of gaming declines, our business plans and operation could be would be negatively impacted.
 
The gaming industry can be affected by public opinion of gaming. Our success depends on continually developing and successfully marketing new games and gaming machines with strong and sustained player appeal. A new game or gaming machine will be accepted by casino operators only if we can show that it is likely to produce more revenues to the operator than competitors’ products. Gaming machines can be installed in casinos on a trial basis, and only after a successful trial period are the machines purchased by the casinos. Participation gaming machines are replaced by casino operators if the gaming machines do not meet and sustain revenue and profitability expectations. Therefore, these gaming machines are particularly susceptible to pressure from competitors, declining popularity, changes in economic conditions and increased taxation and are at risk of replacement by the casinos, which would end our recurring revenues from these machines.
 
We cannot assure you that the new products that we introduce will achieve any significant degree of market acceptance, that the acceptance will be sustained for any meaningful period. In the event that there is a decline in public acceptance of gaming, either through unfavorable legislation affecting the introduction of gaming into emerging markets, or through legislative and regulatory changes, including tax increases, in existing gaming markets, our ability to continue to sell and lease our gaming machines in those markets and jurisdictions would be adversely affected.
 
The gaming industry is intensely competitive. We face competition from a number of companies, some of which have greater resources, and if we are unable to compete effectively, our business could be negatively impacted.
 
Competition among gaming machine manufacturers is based on, among other things, competitive pricing and financing terms made available to customers, appeal of game themes and features to the end player and product quality, features and functionality of hardware and software. The gaming technology provider market is saturated, with IGT, Aristocrat, WMS, Bally Gaming and Systems, and, to a lesser extent, Konami and Progressive Gaming Corporation comprising the primary competition. The competition is intense due to the number of providers, as well as the limited number of casino operators and jurisdictions in which they operate. Pricing, product feature and function, accuracy and reliability are amongst the factors in determining a provider’s success in selling its system. While there are a number of established, well-financed companies producing machines in the field, a single competitor, IGT, dominates the PRC domestic market for gaming machines. Certain of these competitors have access to greater financial, marketing and product development resources we. do, and as a result, may be better positioned to compete in the marketplace.
 
21

In addition, new competitors may enter our key markets. Obtaining space and favorable placement on casino gaming floors is a competitive factor in our industry. Competitors with a larger installed base of gaming machines than ours have an advantage in retaining the most space and best positions in casinos. These competitors may also have the advantage of being able to convert their installed machines to newer models in order to maintain their share of casino floor space. In addition, some of our competitors have developed and sell or otherwise provide to customers centralized player tracking and accounting systems which allow operators to accumulate accounting and performance data about the operation of gaming machines. We do not offer a centralized player tracking and accounting system and that has put us at a competitive disadvantage.
 
The unpredictable growth of non−legacy gaming markets may affect our business and prospects.
 
The continued growth of non−legacy gaming markets for gaming machines and systems depends heavily on the public’s acceptance of gaming in these markets, as well as the ongoing development of the regulatory approval process by national and local governmental authorities. A portion of our growth is directly tied to our ability to access these new markets. We cannot predict which new jurisdictions or markets, if any, will approve the operation of electronic gaming machines, the timing of any such approval, the public’s acceptance of our gaming machines in these markets or our market share or profitability in these markets. Any decline in the popularity of our gaming products with players, or if we are unsuccessful in developing new products, services or systems, will have a negative impact on our revenues.
 
The gaming industry is heavily regulated and changes in regulation by gaming authorities may adversely impact our ability to operate the business.
 
The manufacture and distribution of gaming machines, development of systems and the conduct of gaming operations are subject to extensive national, provincial local and foreign regulation by various gaming authorities.
 
Our ability to continue to operate in certain jurisdictions could be adversely affected by:
 
 
·
Unfavorable public referendums
 
·
Unfavorable legislation affecting or directed at manufacturers or gaming operators, such as Referendums to increase taxes on gaming revenues
 
·
Adverse changes in or finding of non−compliance with applicable governmental gaming regulations
 
·
Delays in approvals from regulatory agencies
 
·
Limitations, conditioning, suspension or revocation of any of our gaming licenses
 
·
Unfavorable determinations or challenges of suitability by gaming regulatory authorities with respect to our officers, directors, major stockholders or key personnel
 
Although the laws, rules and regulations of the various jurisdictions in which we operate vary in their technical requirements, virtually all jurisdictions require licenses, permits, qualification documentation, including evidence of integrity and financial stability, and other forms of approval to engage in gaming operations or the manufacture and distribution of gaming machines. Delays in, amendments to, or repeals of legislation approving gaming in jurisdictions in which we operate or plan to commence operations, or delays in approvals of our customers’ operations, may adversely affect our operations
 
Our officers, directors, major stockholders and key personnel are also subject to significant regulatory scrutiny. In the event that gaming or governmental authorities determine that any person is unsuitable to act in such capacity with respect to the Company, we could be required to terminate our relationship with such person. To our knowledge, the Company and our key personnel have obtained, or applied for, all government licenses, registrations, findings of suitability, permits and approvals necessary to conduct their respective activities in the various jurisdictions that we operate. However, there can be no assurance those licenses, registrations, findings of suitability, permits or approvals will be renewed in the future, or that new forms of approval necessary to operate in emerging or existing markets will be granted.
 
22

 
Furthermore, some jurisdictions require gaming manufacturers to obtain government approval before engaging in some transactions, such as business combinations, reorganizations, borrowings, stock offerings and repurchases. Obtaining licenses and approvals can be time consuming and costly. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain or maintain all necessary registrations, licenses, permits, approvals or findings of suitability or that the approval process will not result in delays or changes to our business plans.
 
Our intellectual property protections may be insufficient to properly safeguard our technology.
 
The gaming industry is constantly employing new technologies in both new and existing markets. We rely on a combination of patent and other technical security measures to protect our products, and we intend to file patents for protection of such technologies. Our success may depend in part on our ability to obtain trademark protection for the names or symbols under which we market our products and to obtain copyright protection and patent protection of our proprietary software and other game innovations. We also rely on trade secrets and proprietary know-how. We enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees regarding our trade secrets and proprietary information. We cannot assure you that we will be able to build and maintain goodwill in our trademarks or obtain trademark or patent protection, that any trademark, copyright or issued patent will provide competitive advantages for us or that our intellectual properties will not be successfully challenged or circumvented by competitors. Furthermore, despite various confidentiality agreements and other trade secret protections, our trade secrets and proprietary know-how could become known to, or independently developed by, competitors.
 
Notwithstanding these safeguards, our competitors may still be able to obtain our technology or to imitate our products. Furthermore, others may independently develop products similar or superior to ours.
 
Expenses incurred with respect to monitoring, protecting and defending our intellectual property rights could adversely affect our business.
 
Competitors and other third parties may infringe on our intellectual property rights, or may allege that we have infringed on their intellectual property rights. Monitoring infringement and/or misappropriation of intellectual property can be difficult and expensive, and we may not be able to detect any infringement or misappropriation of our proprietary rights. We may also incur significant litigation expenses protecting our intellectual property or defending our use of intellectual property, reducing our ability to fund product initiatives. These expenses could have an adverse effect on our future cash flow and results of operations. Litigation can also divert management focus from running the day−to−day operations of the business. There can be no assurances that certain of our products, including those with currently pending patent applications, will not be determined to have infringed upon an existing third party patent.
 
The intellectual property rights of others may prevent us from developing new products or entering new markets.
 
The gaming industry is characterized by the rapid development of new technologies, which requires us to continuously introduce new products using these technologies and innovations, as well as to expand into new markets that may be created. Therefore, our success depends in part on our ability to continually adapt our products and systems to incorporate new technologies and to expand into new markets that may be created by new technologies. However, to the extent technologies are protected by the intellectual property rights of others, including our competitors, we may be prevented from introducing products based on these technologies or expanding into new markets created by these technologies. If our products use processes or other subject matter that is claimed under existing patents, or if other companies obtain patents claiming subject matter that we use, those companies may bring infringement actions against us. We might then be forced to discontinue the affected products or be required to obtain licenses from the company holding the patent, if it is willing to give us a license, to develop, manufacture or market our products. We also might then be limited in our ability to market new products. We might also be found liable for treble damage claims relating to past use of the patented subject matter if the infringement is found to be willful.
 
If the intellectual property rights of others prevent us from taking advantage of innovative technologies, our financial condition, operating results or prospects may be harmed.
 
The discontinuation or limitation of any existing licenses from third parties could adversely affect our business.
 
Some of our most popular games and gaming machine features, including certain branded games and ticket-in, ticket-out cashless gaming functionality, are based on trademarks and other intellectual properties licensed from third parties. Our future success may depend upon our ability to obtain, retain and/or expand licenses for additional popular intellectual properties in a competitive market. In the event that we cannot renew and/or expand this or other existing licenses, we may be required to discontinue the games using the licensed technology or bearing the licensed marks, or limit our use of such items.
 
Our gaming technology, particularly our wide area progressive networks and centrally determined systems, may experience losses due to technical difficulties or fraudulent activities.
 
Our success depends on our ability to avoid, detect, replicate and correct software and hardware errors and fraudulent manipulation of our gaming machines and associated software. To the extent any of our gaming machines or software experience errors or fraudulent manipulation, our customers may replace our products and services with those of our competitors. In addition, the occurrence of errors in, or fraudulent manipulation of, our gaming machines or software may give rise to claims for lost revenues and related litigation by our customers and may subject us to investigation or other action by gaming regulatory authorities, including suspension or revocation of our gaming licenses or disciplinary action. Additionally, in the event of such issues with our gaming machines or software, substantial engineering and marketing resources may be diverted from other areas to rectify the problem.
 
23

 
Our business is subject to other economic, market, and regulatory risks:
 
We face risks associated with doing business in international markets related to political and economic instability and related foreign currency fluctuations. Unstable governments and changes in current legislation may affect the gaming market with respect to gaming regulation, taxation, and the legality of gaming in some markets, as we experienced with the Russian market in fiscal 2006.
 
Customer financing is becoming an increasing prevalent component of the sales process and therefore increases business risk of non-payment, especially in emerging markets. In some instances, our gaming machines are installed in casinos on a trial basis, and only after a successful trial period are the machines purchased by the customers. These customer financing arrangements delay our receipt of cash and can negatively impact our ability to enforce our rights upon default if the customer is from a foreign country.
 
Our competitors have begun to provide free game theme conversions to customers in connection with product sales. While we intend to continue to charge our customers for game theme conversions including CPU-NXT upgrade kits, we cannot be sure that competitive pressure will not cause us to increase the number of free game theme conversions we offer to our customers, which would decrease the revenue we expect to receive for game theme conversions.
 
RISKS RELATED TO OUR CRM AND TELECOM VAS PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
 
A substantial portion of our business depends on mobile telecommunications operators in China and any loss or deterioration of such relationships may result in severe disruptions to our business operations.
 
We rely entirely on the networks and gateways of China Mobile and China Unicom to provide our wireless value-added services. Thus, we face certain risks in conducting our wireless value-added services business. Currently, China Mobile and China Unicom are the only mobile telecommunications operators in China that have platforms for wireless value-added services. Our agreements with them are generally for a period of less than one year and generally do not have automatic renewal provisions. If neither of them is willing to continue to cooperate with us, we will not be able to conduct our existing wireless value-added services business. Furthermore, our agreements with China Mobile and China Unicom are subject to negotiation upon expiration. If any of the mobile telecommunications operators decides to change its content or transmission fees or its share of revenue, or does not comply with the terms of the agreement, our revenue and profitability could be materially adversely affected.
 
The mobile telecommunications operations may launch and may have already launched competing services or could discontinue the use of external content aggregators such as ourselves entirely at any time.
 
Due to our reliance on the mobile telecommunications operators for our wireless value-added services, any loss or deterioration of our relationship with any of the mobile telecommunications operators may result in severe disruptions to our VAS business operations and the loss of a significant portion of our revenue.
 
Our financial condition and results of operations may be materially affected by the changes in policies or guidelines of the mobile telecommunications operators.
 
The mobile telecommunications operators in China may, from time to time, issue certain operating policies or guidelines, requesting or stating its preference for certain actions to be taken by all wireless value-added service providers using their platforms. Due to our reliance on the mobile telecommunications operators, a significant change in their policies or guidelines may have a material adverse effect on us. For example, some mobile telecommunications operators recently revised their billing policies to request all wireless value-added service providers to confirm the subscription status of those users who have not been active for three months. Such change in policies or guidelines may result in lower revenue or additional operating costs for us, and we cannot assure investors that our financial condition and results of operations will not be materially adversely affected by any policy or guideline change by the mobile telecommunications operators in the future.
 
24

 
We may be subject to adverse actions for any breach or perceived breach by us of the policies or guidelines imposed by the mobile telecommunications operator with respect to content provided on or linked through our websites.
 
The mobile telecommunications operators in China may impose policies or guidelines to govern or restrict the content provided by all wireless value-added service providers, including content developed by us or content supplied by others to us. The mobile telecommunications operators from time to time have requested wireless value-added services providers, including us, to remove objectionable content or links to or from websites with certain categories of content, including content that they may deem to be sexually explicit. We aggregate and develop content that we consider attractive to our targeted user base, and we cannot assure investors that the mobile telecommunications operators will not from time to time find certain portions of our content to be objectionable. In the case of a breach or perceived breach of such policies or guidelines, the mobile telecommunications operators may require us to reduce or curtail the content on our Internet portal, which may reduce our portal traffic, and the mobile telecommunications operators may have the right to impose monetary fines upon us, or terminate our cooperation with them. In addition, we would be liable to the mobile telecommunications operators for their economic losses pursuant to our agreements with these operators if we were found to be in breach of the policies or guidelines promulgated by them. As a result of the occurrence of any of the above, our financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.
 
Our dependence on the substance and timing of the billing systems of the mobile telecommunications operators may require us to estimate portions of our reported revenue for wireless value-added services from time to time. As a result, subsequent adjustments may have to be made to our wireless value-added services revenue in our financial statements.
 
As we do not bill our wireless value-added services users directly, we depend on the billing systems and records of the mobile telecommunications operators to record the volume of our wireless value-added services provided, charge our users through mobile telephone bills and collect payments from our users and pay us. In addition, we do not generally have the ability to independently verify or challenge the accuracy of the billing systems of the mobile telecommunications operators. Generally, within 20 to 60 days after the end of each month, a statement from each of the mobile telecommunications operators confirming the value of wireless value-added services they bill to users in that month will be delivered to us, and generally within 60 days after such delivery, we will be paid by the mobile telecommunications operators for the wireless value-added services, net of their revenue share, transmission fees and applicable business taxes, for that month based on such statements.
 
Our communication products are provided cash-on-delivery, which leaves us vulnerable to theft and employee embezzlement.
 
The purchase of calling cards, SIM cards and other mobile phone products are made with cash. Although there is a low risk that clients will not pay for these services when delivered, our retail stores maintain large sums of money which might make them robbery targets. We also face the risk that employees who collect the cash and others who may be aware that cash is available at these sites might embezzle the money. Theft or embezzlement could have a material adverse effect on the revenue generated and the financial condition of our business operations.
 
Our customers are concentrated in a limited number of industries.
 
Our clients are concentrated primarily in the telecommunications, telemarketing and technology industries, and to a lesser extent, the insurance and financial services industries, where the current trend is to outsource certain CRM and VAS. Our ability to generate revenue depends on the demand for our services in these industries. An economic downturn, or a slowdown or reversal of the tendency in any of these industries to rely on outsourcing could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
 
The market in which we compete is highly competitive and fragmented and we may not be able to maintain market share.
 
We expect competition to persist and intensify in the future. Our competitors are mainly leaders in the CRM services market, such as PCCW Teleservices (Hong Kong) Limited, China Motion Telecom International Limited, and Teletech (Hong Kong) Limited. Our competitors also include small firms offering specific applications, divisions of large entities and other large independent firms. We face the risk that new competitors with greater resources than ours will enter our market. Furthermore, increasing competition among telecom companies in greater China has led to a reduction in telecommunication services fees that can be charged by such companies. If a reduction in telecommunication services fees negatively impacts revenue generated by our clients, they may require us to reduce the price of our services, or seek competitors of ours that charge less. If we must significantly reduce the price of our services, the decrease in revenue could adversely affect our profitability.
 
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH DOING BUSINESS IN GREATER CHINA
 
There are substantial risks associated with doing business in greater China, as set forth in the following risk factors.
 
25

 
Our operations and assets in Greater China are subject to significant political and economic uncertainties.
 
Changes in laws and regulations, or their interpretation, or the imposition of confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, imports and sources of supply, devaluations of currency or the nationalization or other expropriation of private enterprises could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Under its current leadership, the Chinese government has been pursuing economic reform policies that encourage private economic activity and greater economic decentralization. There is no assurance, however, that the Chinese government will continue to pursue these policies, or that it will not significantly alter these policies from time to time without notice.
 
Currency fluctuations and restrictions on currency exchange may adversely affect our business, including limiting our ability to convert Chinese renminbi into foreign currencies and, if Chinese renminbi were to decline in value, reducing our revenue in U.S. dollar terms.
 
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar and our operations in China and Hong Kong use their respective local currencies as their functional currencies. The majority of our revenue derived and expenses incurred are in Chinese renminbi with a relatively small amount in Hong Kong dollars and U.S. dollars. We are subject to the effects of exchange rate fluctuations with respect to any of these currencies. For example, the value of the renminbi depends to a large extent on Chinese government policies and China's domestic and international economic and political developments, as well as supply and demand in the local market. Since 1994, the official exchange rate for the conversion of renminbi to U.S. dollars had generally been stable and the renminbi had appreciated slightly against the U.S. dollar. However, on July 21, 2005, the Chinese government changed its policy of pegging the value of Chinese renminbi to the U.S. dollar. Under the new policy, Chinese renminbi may fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. As a result of this policy change, Chinese renminbi appreciated approximately 2.5% against the US. dollar in 2005. It is possible that the Chinese government could adopt a more flexible currency policy, which could result in more significant fluctuation of Chinese renminbi against the U.S. dollar. We can offer no assurance that Chinese renminbi will be stable against the U.S. dollar or any other foreign currency.
 
The income statements of our international operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in each applicable period. To the extent the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currencies denominated transactions results in reduced revenue, operating expenses and net income for our international operations. Similarly, to the extent the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currency denominated transactions results in increased revenue, operating expenses and net income for our international operations. We are also exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations as we convert the financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S dollars in consolidation. If there is a change in foreign currency exchange rates, the conversion of the foreign subsidiaries' financial statements into U.S dollars will lead to a translation gain or loss which is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. In addition, we have certain assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the relevant entity's functional currency. Changes in the functional currency value of these assets and liabilities create fluctuations that will lead to a transaction gain or loss. We have not entered into agreements or purchased instruments to hedge our exchange rate risks, although we may do so in the future. The availability and effectiveness of any hedging transaction may be limited and we may not be able to successfully hedge our exchange rate risks.
 
Although Chinese governmental policies were introduced in 1996 to allow the convertibility of Chinese renminbi into foreign currency for current account items, conversion of Chinese renminbi into foreign exchange for capital items, such as foreign direct investment, loans or securities, requires the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, which is under the authority of the People's Bank of China. These approvals, however, do not guarantee the availability of foreign currency. We cannot be sure that we will be able to obtain all required conversion approvals for our operations or that Chinese regulatory authorities will not impose greater restrictions on the convertibility of Chinese renminbi in the future. Because a significant amount of our future revenue may be in the form of Chinese renminbi, our inability to obtain the requisite approvals or any future restrictions on currency exchanges could limit our ability to utilize revenue generated in Chinese renminbi to fund our business activities outside China, or to repay foreign currency obligations, including our debt obligations, which would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation.
 
We are required to obtain licenses to expand our business into mainland China.
 
Our activities must be reviewed and approved by various national and local agencies of the Chinese government before they will issue business licenses to us. There can be no assurance that the current Chinese government, or successors, will continue to approve and renew our licenses. If we are unable to obtain licenses or renewals we will not be able to continue our business operations in mainland China, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
26

We may have limited legal recourse under PRC law if disputes arise under our contracts with third parties.
 
The Chinese government has enacted some laws and regulations dealing with matters such as corporate organization and governance, foreign investment, commerce, taxation and trade. However, their experience in implementing, interpreting and enforcing these laws and regulations is limited, and our ability to enforce commercial claims or to resolve commercial disputes is unpredictable. If our new business ventures are unsuccessful, or other adverse circumstances arise from these transactions, we face the risk that the parties to these ventures may seek ways to terminate the transactions, or, may hinder or prevent us from accessing important information regarding the financial and business operations of these acquired companies. The resolution of these matters may be subject to the exercise of considerable discretion by agencies of the Chinese government, and forces unrelated to the legal merits of a particular matter or dispute may influence their determination. Any rights we may have to specific performance, or to seek an injunction under PRC law, in either of these cases, are severely limited, and without a means of recourse by virtue of the Chinese legal system, we may be unable to prevent these situations from occurring. The occurrence of any such events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
We must comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.
 
We are required to comply with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits United States companies from engaging in bribery or other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Foreign companies, including some of our competitors, are not subject to these prohibitions. Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices occur from time-to-time in mainland China. If our competitors engage in these practices they may receive preferential treatment from personnel of some companies, giving our competitors an advantage in securing business or from government officials who might give them priority in obtaining new licenses, which would put us at a disadvantage. Although we inform our personnel that such practices are illegal, we cannot assure that our employees or other agents will not engage in such conduct for which we might be held responsible. If our employees or other agents are found to have engaged in such practices, we could suffer severe penalties.
 
PRC laws and regulations restrict foreign investment in China’s telecommunications services industry and substantial uncertainties exist with respect to our contractual agreements with Dianxun-DE, Sunroom-DE, Wanrong-DE and iMobile-DE to uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of current or futures PRC laws and regulations.
 
Since we are deemed to be foreign persons or foreign funded enterprises under PRC laws and cannot directly invest in telecommunications companies, we operate our IVR, call center and telecom value-added services business in China through operating companies or variable interest entities (VIEs) owned by PRC citizens. We control these companies and operate these businesses through contractual arrangements with the respective operating companies and their individual shareholders, but we have no equity control over these companies. Although we believe we are in compliance with current PRC regulations, we cannot be sure that the PRC government would view these operating arrangements to be in compliance with PRC licensing, registration or other regulatory requirements, with existing policies or with requirements or policies that may be adopted in the future. In the opinion of our in-house PRC legal counsel, our current ownership structure, the contractual arrangements among our wholly owned subsidiaries and the operating company and their shareholders comply with all existing applicable PRC laws, rules and regulations. Because this structure has not been challenged or examined by PRC authorities, they have not commented on it and uncertainties exist as to whether the PRC government may interpret or apply the laws governing these arrangements in a way that is contrary to the opinion of our in-house PRC counsel. If we, or the operating companies, were found to be in violation of any existing PRC laws or regulations, the relevant regulatory authorities would have broad discretion to deal with such violation, including, but not limited to the following:
 
 
·
Levying fines
 
·
Confiscating income
 
·
Revoking licenses
 
·
Shutting down servers or blocking websites
 
·
Requiring a restructure of ownership or operations
 
·
Requiring the discontinuance of wireless VAS and online advertising businesses
 
We may also encounter difficulties in obtaining performance under or enforcement of related contracts. Any of these or similar actions could cause significant disruption to our business operations or render us unable to conduct a substantial portion of our business operations and may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Our contractual agreements with Dianxun-DE or Sunroom-DE, Wanrong-DE and iMobile-DE may not be as effective in providing operational control as direct ownership of these businesses.
 
We depend on operating companies in which we have little or no equity ownership interest and must rely on contractual agreements to control and operate these businesses. Our contractual agreements with each of the operating companies may not be as effective in providing and maintaining control over the operating companies and their business operations as direct ownership of these businesses. For example, we may not be able to take control of the operating company upon the occurrence of certain events, such as the imposition of statutory liens, judgments, court orders, death or capacity. Furthermore, if the operating companies fail to perform as required under those contractual agreements, we will have to rely on the PRC legal system to enforce those agreements and due to the uncertainties that exist under PRC Law about the structure of our acquisition, and there is no guarantee that we will be successful in an enforcement action. In addition, the PRC government may propose new laws or amend current laws that may be detrimental to our current contractual agreements with our operating companies, which may in turn have a material adverse effect on our business operations.
 
27

 
The PRC government may prevent us from advertising or distributing content that it believes is inappropriate.
 
China has enacted regulations governing Internet access and the distribution of news and other information. In the past, the Chinese government has stopped the distribution of information over the Internet or through VAS that it believes to violate PRC law, including content that it believes is obscene, incites violence, endangers national security, is contrary to the national interest or is defamatory. In addition, we may need the permission of the Chinese government prior to publishing certain news items, such as news relating to national security. Furthermore, the Ministry of Public Security has the authority to cause any local Internet service provider to block any website maintained outside China at its sole discretion. If the PRC government were to take any action to limit or prohibit the distribution of information through our network or via our VAS, or to limit or regulate any current or future content or services available to users on our network, our business could be significantly harmed. We are also subject to potential liability for content on our website that is deemed inappropriate and for any unlawful actions of our subscribers and other users of our systems. Furthermore, we are required to delete content that clearly violates the laws of China and report content that we suspect may violate PRC law. It is difficult to determine the type of content that may result in liability for us, and if we are wrong, we may be prevented from operating our website.
 
RISKS RELATED TO OUR TECHNOLOGY AND EQUIPMENT
 
Our insurance may not be sufficient to restore our call center if operations are interrupted by natural disaster or other destruction of our facilities or equipment.
 
Our operations depend on our ability to protect our call centers, data centers, CRM information, customer database, data warehouse, computer and telecommunications equipment and software systems against damage from fire, power loss, telecommunications interruption or failure, hacker attacks, natural disaster, epidemic, terrorism, act of war and other similar events. In the event we experience a temporary or permanent interruption at one or more of our call centers, through casualty, operating malfunction or otherwise, our business could be materially adversely affected and we may be required to pay contractual damages to some clients or allow some clients to terminate or renegotiate their contracts with us. While we maintain certain property and business interruption insurance, such insurance may not adequately compensate us for all losses that we may incur and may not be adequate to cover the costs of rebuilding these centers. If we are unable to restore our operations, our business activities would cease.
 
We must respond quickly and effectively to new technological developments.
 
Our gaming, telecom and VAS businesses are highly dependent on our computer and telecommunications equipment and software systems. Our failure to maintain the superiority of our technological capabilities or to respond effectively to technological changes could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. Our future success also depends on our ability to enhance existing software and systems and to respond to changing technological developments. If we are unable to successfully develop and bring to market new software and systems in a timely manner, our competitors’ technologies or services may render our products or services noncompetitive or obsolete.
 
RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK
 
Efforts to comply with recently enacted changes in securities laws and regulations will increase our costs and require additional management resources. Our failure to comply could adversely affect our stock price.
 
We have rapidly grown by acquisition during 2004 and 2005. We do not integrate the business operations of our target companies and therefore have separate administration and accounting personnel at each subsidiary location. Due to the number of new subsidiaries we have acquired, we have faced significant challenges with the timely reporting of information necessary to complete the financial statements to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Furthermore, concerns about our stock option granting practices and recording of such grants, have led to the withdrawal of the previously issued audit reports for December 31, 2005 and 2004 by our previous independent auditors, Clancy and Co., P.L.L.C. These actions have required us to re-evaluate our disclosure controls and procedures and conclude that they are ineffective. We have sought to improve our existing disclosure controls and procedures and to that end, have substantially increased our accounting and administrative resources. Our failure to timely file our annual and quarterly reports may have an adverse affect on our stock price and may put our common stock in jeopardy of being delisted.
 
28

 
As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, public companies are required to include a report of management on the company's internal controls over financial reporting in their annual reports on Form 10-K and the public accounting firm auditing a company's financial statements must attest to and report on management's assessment of the effectiveness of the company's internal controls over financial reporting. This requirement will first apply to our annual report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2007. We have only recently begun to evaluate our internal controls over financial reporting. Given the status of our efforts, coupled with the fact that guidance from regulatory authorities in the area of internal controls continues to evolve, substantial uncertainty exists regarding our ability to comply by applicable deadlines. If we are unable to conclude that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting, or if our independent auditors are unable to provide us with an unqualified report as to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 and future year ends, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we could experience delays or inaccuracies in our reporting of financial information, or non-compliance with SEC reporting and other regulatory requirements. This could subject us to regulatory scrutiny and result in a loss of public confidence in our management, which could, among other things, adversely affect our stock price.
 
If the audit reports for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 are not reinstated by our previous auditors, or re-issued by our new auditors, in a timely manner, our common stock may be delisted.
 
In March 2007, our prior independent registered accountants, Clancy and Co., PL.L.C., withdrew its audit reports for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. As a result, our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, is deficient for lack of audited reports, and on March 30, 2007, we received a notice of delisting and deficiency from The NASDAQ Stock Market addressing notifying us of such deficiency. If we are unable to provide restated financial statements for the relevant periods that are satisfactory to enable Clancy to reinstate its audit reports, or we are unable to have the financial statements for the relevant periods re-audited by our new auditors, Kabani & Company, Inc., to be included in our Annual Reports for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, within the time frame required by NASDAQ, our common stock could be delisted.
 
We issued $8,000,000 in convertible debentures due in 2009, or possibly earlier, which we may not be able to repay in cash and could result in dilution of our basic earnings per share.
 
In March 2006, we issued $8 million in convertible debentures due March 2009. The debentures are convertible at any time into shares of our common stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $10.00 per share, subject to adjustments for certain events. If any event of default occurs under the debentures or other related documents, the holders may elect to accelerate the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the debenture, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages or other amounts, which shall become immediately due and payable. In 2007, we began to redeem up to $363,638 every month, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties. We may choose to pay such redemption amount in cash, or, subject to meeting certain conditions, we may pay all or a part of the redemption amount in shares of common stock. We may not have enough cash on hand or have the ability to access cash to pay the redemption amount, or upon acceleration of the debenture in the case of an event of default, or at maturity. In addition, the redemption of the debentures with our shares or the conversion of the debentures into shares of common stock could result in dilution of our basic earnings per share.
 
We may have to pay liquidated damages and our debenture may be declared in default if we are unable to re-instate use of the prospectus contained in our Registration Statement on Form S-1
 
On March 27, 2007, we suspended use of the prospectus contained in our Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-134127) that was declared effective on December 8, 2006, due to the lack of fiscal year end 2005 and 2004 audited financial statements. As a result 3,152,228 shares of common stock registered there under, are not freely tradable upon resale. Under the terms of our registration rights agreement with the holders of the debentures, we are subject to paying liquidated damages equal to 2% of the debenture amount on a monthly basis, up to a maximum of 20% per holder, in the event we suspend use of the prospectus for longer than 15 consecutive calendar days or more than an aggregate of 30 calendar days during any 12-month period. Moreover, at the election of the debenture holder, our debenture could be declared in default, resulting in acceleration of the amounts due, if such suspension continues more than 20 consecutive trading days or 60 non-consecutive trading days during any 12-month period. We cannot assure you that none of the debenture holders will declare our debentures in default and demand acceleration of the debenture. We may not have cash on hand, or have the ability to access cash to pay the debenture in full if such a demand is made. If the debenture holders refuse to negotiate with us, our failure to pay upon, demand could result in the debenture holders bringing claims against us for payment, which may include severe penalty payments. If they are successful in such claims, we may suffer significant losses, which may severely curtail our ability to continue business operations.

The price of our stock has fluctuated in the past and may continue to do so.
 
Our stock price has fluctuated dramatically. There is a significant risk that the market price of our common stock will decrease in the future in response to any of the following factors, some of which are beyond our control:
 
 
·
Variations in our quarterly operating results
 
·
Announcements that our revenue or income are below analysts' expectations
 
·
General economic slowdowns
 
·
Changes in market valuations of similar companies
 
·
Sales of large blocks of our common stock
 
·
Announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments
 
·
Fluctuations in stock market prices and volumes, which are particularly common among highly volatile securities of companies with primarily international-based operations
 
Future sales of shares could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock
 
As of December 31, 2006, we had 11,538,664 shares of common stock outstanding, which shares will be available to be sold in the public market in the near future, subject to, with respect to shares of common stock held by affiliates and shares issued between 12 and 24 months ago, the volume restrictions and/or manner of sale requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. On March 27, 2007, we suspended the use of the prospectus contained in our Registration Statement on Form S-1 that was declared effective with respect to 3,152,228 shares of our common stock was suspended. These shares are no longer freely tradable without restriction or further registration, unless such sales can be made pursuant to an available exemption under the Securities Act. Sales by our current shareholders of a substantial number of shares could significantly reduce the market price of our common stock.
 
As of December 31, 2006, we had stock options outstanding to purchase an aggregate of 370,500 shares of common stock, those options are exercisable. We also have warrants outstanding to purchase 1,007,138 shares of our common stock. To the extent that the options and warrants are exercised, they may be exercised at prices below the price of our shares of common stock on the public market, resulting in a significant number of shares entering the public market and the dilution of our common stock. Further, in March 2006, we completed a private placement of $8,000,000 in convertible debentures. The debentures are convertible into shares of common stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $10.00, subject to adjustments. In the event that any future financing should also be in the form of securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, equity securities, investors may experience additional dilution upon the conversion or exchange of such securities.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
1. Legal Proceeding and Judgment Against Guangzhou Yueshen Taiyang Network Science and Technology Limited, Ms. Li Yan Kuan,  and Mr.Wu Yi Wen

On August 12, 2006, we commenced a law suit in the High Court of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region ("HKSAR") against Guangzhou Yueshen Taiyang Network Science and Technology Limited, Ms. Li Yan Kuan, (PRC ID: 440112195706120967,  Residential Address: Room G6-305, West Garden, FuLiHuanShi, HuanShi West Road, LiWan District, Guangzhou, Guangdong, China)  and Mr.Wu Yi Wen, (PRC ID: 440106196412220919, Residential Address: Room 906, Number 15, SiHeng Road Number 2, TianHe YuanChun, Guangzhou, Guangdong, China) for failure to pay amounts owed under a promissory note.  On May 15, 2005, we loaned RMB2,000,000 ("Debt Sum") to Yueshen to cover operating costs, evidenced by a promissory note due on November 15, 2005.  Ms. Kuan and Mr. Wen guaranteed repayment of the note by Yueshen.  The Debt Sum together with the agreed interest rate calculated at 6% per annum was due on November 15, 2005.  
 
On March 28, 2007, the High Court of HKSAR had adjudged that the three defendants should pay us the Debt Sum together with interest sum at the rate of 6% per annum from  May 15, 2005 to  March 28, 2007, and additional interest charged at the rate of 5% per annum for the Debt Sum and accrued interest within 90 days overdue and thereafter at the judgment rate until payment and fixed costs of HK$3,405.
2. Lawsuit between PacificNet Power Limited and Johnson Controls Hong Kong Limited (JCHKL), a subsidiary of Johnson Controls Inc.  (NYSE:JCI) (www.jci.com )
 
On January 19, 2007, Johnson Controls Hong Kong Limited filed a claim against PacificNet Power Limited (a 51% owned subsidiary of PacificNet) in the High Court of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region seeking HK$4,800,000 as payment for services rendered to replace 3 sets of trane water-cooled chillers, together with energy saving performance (the "Chiller System"), at the Fortress Tower in Hong Kong. 
 
In connection with the claim, PacificNet Power reviewed a letter from its client, China Weal Property Management Ltd., dated January 22, 2007 stating that the construction work by JCHKL had not been completed as of the date of the letter, and that certain violations itemized in a  letter issued by the Hong Kong Environment Protection Department  (EPD) (Noise Abatement Notice No. N806030) addressed to JCHKL with respect to acoustic problems with JCHKL’s equipment had not been abated.  Further, JCHKL was to pay penalties between  HK$100,000 and HK$200,000 assessed by the JCHKL for failing to fix the noise problem on the roof of Fortress Tower.
 
The board of directors of PacificNet Power Limited has reviewed the case with its client, China Weal Property Management Ltd., and our Hong Kong legal counsel and it is our belief that the project work undertaken JCHKL is defective in numerous aspects, as evidenced by the letter from government letter issued by EPD.  As a result, we believe the construction work was not been completed by JCHKL, and therefore, JCHKL is not entitled to payment for its services.
 
On February 7, 2007, we instructed our Hong Kong legal counsel to issue a Defense and Counterclaim to JCHKL to counter-claim that ( i) JCHKL's construction work has not complied with the applicable rules and regulations of various government authorities in Hong Kong; (ii) the Chiller System provided by JCHKL was defective and merchantable unfit and JCHKL has failed and/or refused to rectify such defective works; and (iii) JCHKL shall return the work deposit in the amount of  HK$1,500,000 to PacificNet Power Limited and shall compensate and keep PacificNet Power Limited indemnified against all the loss and damages suffered as a result of any claims from the China Weal Property Management Ltd, the employer and the potential tenants of Fortress Tower.
 
The case is under review by Hong Kong High Court and we have not received any judgment from the High Court of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region as of date of this report. We are currently proceeding with discovery and counter-claims, and we intend to vigorously defend ourselves against the allegations. We are unable to predict the outcome of these actions, or a reasonable estimate of the range of possible loss, if any.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Our discussion and analysis is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make certain estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to research and development, long-lived assets including goodwill and purchased intangible assets, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventories, income taxes and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
Management believes the following critical accounting policies reflect the most significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.
 
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
 
We evaluate research and development costs to identify any research and development activities that could be objectively measured and recognized as an asset for accounting purposes at the time they are acquired or at the time they have developed future economic benefits. Some costs and expenses are recognized as costs and expenses incurred during the period, provided that (a) there are no discernible future benefits, (b) costs recorded as assets in prior periods no longer provide discernible benefits, and (c) allocating costs either on the basis of association with revenue or among several accounting periods is considered to serve no useful purpose.
 
VALUATION OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS INCLUDING GOODWILL AND PURCHASED INTANGIBLE ASSETS
 
We review property, plant and equipment, goodwill and purchased intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Our asset impairment review assesses the fair value of the assets based on the future cash flows the assets are expected to generate. An impairment loss is recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from the disposition of the asset (if any) are less than the carrying value of the asset. This approach uses our estimates of future market growth, forecasted revenue and costs, expected periods the assets will be utilized and appropriate discount rates. Such evaluations of impairment of long-lived assets including goodwill arising on a business combination and purchased intangible assets are an integral part of, but not limited to, our strategic reviews of our business and operations performed in conjunction with restructuring actions. When impairment is identified, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value. Deterioration of our business in a geographic region or within a business segment in the future could also lead to impairment adjustments as such issues are identified. The accounting effect of an impairment loss would be a charge to income, thereby reducing our net profit.
 
ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
 
We evaluate the collected ability of our trade receivables based on a combination of factors. We regularly analyze our significant customer accounts, and, when we become aware of a specific customer's inability to meet its financial obligations to us, such as in the case of bankruptcy filings or deterioration in the customer's operating results or financial position, we record a specific reserve for doubtful accounts to reduce the related receivable to the amount we reasonably believe is collectible. We also record reserves for doubtful accounts for all other customers based on a variety of factors including the length of time the receivables are past due, the financial health of the customer, macroeconomic considerations and historical experience. If circumstances related to specific customers change, our estimates of the recoverability of receivables could be further adjusted. In the event that our trade receivables become uncollectible, we would be forced to record additional adjustments to receivables to reflect the amounts at net realizable value. The accounting effect of this entry would be a charge to income, thereby reducing our net profit. Although we consider the likelihood of this occurrence to be remote based on past history and the current status of our accounts, there is a possibility of this occurrence.
 
TAXES ON EARNING
 
We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. We have considered future market growth, forecasted earnings, future taxable income, the mix of earnings in the jurisdictions in which we operate and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in determining the need for a valuation allowance. In the event we determine that we would not be able to realize all or part of our net deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets would be charged to earnings in the period such determination is made. Likewise, if we later determine that it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets would be realized, the previously provided valuation allowance would be reversed.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 123-R, Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123(R)”). SFAS 123(R) replaces SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123(R) requires, among other things, that all share-based payments to employees, including grants of stock options, be measured based on their grant-date fair value and recognized as expense. Effective January 1, 2006, PacificNet adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective application method. Under this transition method, compensation expense recognized for year 2006, includes the applicable amounts of: (a) compensation expense of all stock-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006 (based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123 and previously presented in pro forma footnote disclosures), and (b) compensation expense for all stock-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006 (based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the new provisions of SFAS 123(R)). Results for periods prior to January 1, 2006, have not been restated. See Note 1 for further details.

In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments—an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140 (“SFAS 155”). This statement amends SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 133”), and SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities and resolves issues addressed in SFAS 133 Implementation Issue No. D1, “Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interest in Securitized Financial Assets.” This Statement: (a) permits fair value re-measurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation; (b) clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to the requirements of SFAS 133; (c) establishes a requirement to evaluate beneficial interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation; (d) clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives; and, (e) eliminates restrictions on a qualifying special-purpose entity’s ability to hold passive derivative financial instruments that pertain to beneficial interests that are or contain a derivative financial instrument. The standard also requires presentation within the financial statements that identifies those hybrid financial instruments for which the fair value election has been applied and information on the income statement impact of the changes in fair value of those instruments. The Company is required to apply SFAS 155 to all financial instruments acquired, issued or subject to a re-measurement event beginning January 1, 2007, although early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year.

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This Interpretation requires that the Company recognize in its financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for the Company on January 1, 2007, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle, if any, recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting FIN 48 on its consolidated financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”), and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial statements.
 
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
REVENUES
 
Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2006 were $42,738,000, which represents a year-over-year increase of 148.7%. Revenues of $17,186,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 have been reclassified from $44,341,000 as reported in previous year for comparative purposes, as a result of certain discontinued operations and assets held for disposition identified in Note 16 to consolidated financial statements under Item 15 below.
 
37

The increase in revenues was mainly due to the growth in Products (Telecom & Gaming) and Other Business Groups, which posted a year-over-year increase of 712% and 356% respectively. In aggregate, the newly acquired subsidiaries during 2006 contributed to 10% of the total revenues. Revenues for the fourth quarter of the year were $9,573,000, an increase of 989% as compared to $4,812,000 for the fourth quarter of 2005; or a decrease of 11.2% as compared to $10,785,000 for the third quarter of the year. Segmented financial information of the four business operating groups is set out below followed by a brief discussion of each business group.

 (1) OUTSOURCING SERVICES
 
Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2006 were $14,146,000, a year-over-year increase of 5% from $13,505,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005. Outsourcing services revenues made up 36.8% of the Company's total revenues for the fourth quarter of the year primarily due to 13% growth in the call center related revenues as compared to the same period in 2005. Revenues from outsourcing services for the fourth quarter of the year were $3,833,000, an increase of 5% as compared to $3,645,000 for the fourth quarter of 2005; or an increase of 3% as compared to $3,733,000 for the third quarter of 2006.
 
During 2006, the outsourcing contract center in Hong Kong was close to full utilization. Pricing was highly competitive but demand for outbound calling lists, in-sourcing operators and sub-contract call center facilities management, for American Express and MetLife, remained strong. New contracts won during the year included customer service operation management training for NanJing Airlines, web-based quality management services and supplier quality management services for McDonalds Corporation, and CRM consulting and call center training services for China Telecom's Xinjiang Branch and China Unicom's Shanghai Branch. Under the project service agreement, the Company will enhance the CRM service level and telemarketing management capability of China Unicom's customer service center called the "10010 Information Hotline."
 
(2) TELECOM VALUE-ADDED SERVICES (VAS)
 
Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2006 were $1,555,000 as compared to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2005 as a result of reclassifications induced by Note 16. Our acquisitions in 2006 contributed to the increase in revenues and made the company a major mobile internet contents provider in China. Revenues from VAS for the fourth quarter of the year were $1,448,000, a sequential increase of 4,520% from $40,000 for the third quarter of 2006. VAS revenues made up 13.9% of the Company's total revenues for the fourth quarter of the year.
 
(3) PRODUCTS (TELECOM & GAMING)
 
Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2006 were $25,948,000, a year-over-year increase of 707% from $3,216,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005. Revenues from the products group for the fourth quarter of the year were $5,124,000, an increase of 735.9% as compared to $613,000 for the fourth quarter of 2005; or a decrease of 20% as compared to $6,411,000 for the third quarter of 2006. The revenues made up 49.2% of the Company's total revenues for the fourth quarter of 2006.

During the year, substantially all of the products group revenue derived from the Company’s mobile phone distribution business in Greater China. The Company owned one of the largest on-line mobile phone distribution portal in China and was one of the top five largest mobile phone wholesalers in Hong Kong. New agreements had been entered into with Motorola to become its designated channel partner and after-sale service provider for Motorola mobile products and accessories in China. Economies of scale continued to drive year-over-year revenue increase of the products group.
 
Also included in the products group was the Company’s high potential gaming technology business. In spite of rather insignificant revenue contribution in 2006, the acquisition of Able Entertainment in Macau, along with its exceptionally talented R&D team in Zhuhai, by PacificNet Games Limited (PacGames) during the year had given the Company major first movers advantage into the fast growing Asian gaming technology provider market. With PacGames’ world class multi-player electronic table game machines customized to the taste of Asian gaming customers, the Company has managed to build up excellent relationships with leading casino operators in Macau and the rest of Asia in no time.
 
(4) OTHER BUSINESS
 
Revenues for other business for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $3,652,000, an increase of 356% as compared to $801,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005. Incremental revenues were largely derived from new air conditioning installation contracts won by the Company’s subcontracting business in Hong Kong.
 
COST OF REVENUES AND GROSS MARGIN
 
Cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $36,217,000, which represents a year-over-year increase of 180%. Cost of revenues of $12,950,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 have been reclassified from $33,440,000 as reported in previous year for comparative purposes, as a result of certain discontinued operations and assets held for disposition identified in Note 16 to consolidated financial statements under Item 15 below.
 
The increase in the cost of revenues was directly associated with the corresponding increase in revenues. Cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenues, was 85% for the year ended December 31, 2006 as compared with 75% for the year ended December 31, 2005. The improvement in cost of revenues was attributable to the Company’s constant pursuit of higher margin businesses. The cost of revenues in services and product sales for the year ended December 31, 2006 increased year-over-year by 34% and 66% respectively.
 
Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $6,521,000, which represents a year-over-year increase of 54% resulting from our newly acquired subsidiaries in 2006 and call centre business. Gross profit of $4,236,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 have been reclassified from $10,901,000 as reported in previous year for comparative purposes, as a result of certain discontinued operations and assets held for disposition identified in Note 16 to consolidated financial statements under Item 15 below. Gross profit for the fourth quarter of the year was $1,899,000, a year-over-year increase of 10% from $1,724,000 for the same period in 2005; or a sequential increase of 72% for the third quarter of 2006. Gross margin was 15% for the year ended December 31, 2006, compared to 25% for the year ended December 31, 2005.
 
Going forward, improvement of gross margin is expected to continue as a result of the new strategic initiative of moving away from the highly competitive legacy telecom business into the new niche gaming technology business. Assistance will be sought from financial advisors and bankers to help dispose of the legacy businesses units, including but not limited to disposition, spin-offs, mergers and sale back to founders.
 
(1) OUTSOURCING SERVICES
 
In 2006, year-over-year cost of revenues for outsourcing services increased by 8% to $10,908,000 (2005: $10,095,000). Gross profit was 5% lower at $3,238,000 (2005: $3,409,000). Gross margin for outsourcing services was 25% for the year ended December 31, 2006, as compared to 29% for the year ended December 31, 2005. Gross profit for outsourcing services accounted for 19% of the total gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2006, as compared to 31% for the same period in 2005. Gross profit of $950,000 for the fourth quarter represented a year-over-year reduction of 11% to the same period in 2005; but a sequential increase of 30% as compared to $732,000 for the third quarter of 2006 due to the increasing demand for outsourcing contact center services, especially from the industries of telecom, banking, market research and fast-moving consumer goods, among others. Year-over-year gross profit erosion was primarily due to a combination of aggressive pricing and higher cost of labor in the highly competitive Hong Kong market. Extra call center space and depreciation of newly acquired fixed assets for operations purposes also contributed to a higher cost of revenues. Gross margin for this segment mainly depends on the facilities management services.
 
(2) TELECOM VALUE-ADDED SERVICES (VAS)
 
Cost of revenues and gross profit for VAS were $1,138,000 and $416,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006, respectively, as compared to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2005 as a result of reclassifications induced by Note 16 Gross profit for VAS accounted for 6% of the total gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2006, as compared to 0% for the same period in 2005. For the fourth quarter of 2006, VAS gross profit was $118,000 as compared to $0 for the same period in 2005; or a sequential increase of 372% as compared to $87,000 for the third quarter of 2006. The inncrease in year-over-year gross profit is due to a major VAS acquisition in 2006.

(3) PRODUCTS (TELECOM & GAMING)
 
Increase of 755% in year-over-year cost of revenues for products (telecom & gaming) to $22,002,000 (2005: $2,572,000) was commensurate with its 61% year-over-year revenue growth. Gross profit was 349% higher at $1,384,000 (2005: $308,000) in absolute terms. Gross margin of mobile phone distribution business in China and Hong Kong largely remained steady on a year-over-year basis. Gross profit for products (telecom & gaming) accounted 21% of the total gross profit both for the year ended December 31, 2006 and 2005. Gross profit of $583,000 for the fourth quarter represented a year-over-year increase of 122% as compared to the same period in 2005; or a sequential increase of 163% as compared to $222,000 for the third quarter of 2006
 
Slight year-over-year gross margin improvement from 7% (2005) to 21% (2006) can be attributed to the newly acquired gaming technology business. Gross margin contribution of the gaming technology provider business was not apparent in 2006 due to its startup nature and had relative insignificant revenue throughout the year.
 
(4) OTHER BUSINESS
 
Increase of 666% in year-over-year cost of revenues to $2,169,000 (2005: $283,000) for Other Business is largely driven by subcontracting revenue growth. 95% of cost of revenues in 2006 was attributable to the new installation contracts won by the Company, gross margins of which remained almost steady at 24% from year to year.
 
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
 
Selling, General and Administrative expenses (“SG&A”) totaled $5,810,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006, which represents a year-over-year increase of 70%. SG&A was $3,411,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 which have been reclassified from $5,811,000 as reported in previous year for comparative purposes, as a result of certain discontinued operations and assets held for disposition identified in Note 16 to consolidated financial statements under Item 15 below. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses reflected the expansion of our operations of which expenses were incurred by our newly acquired subsidiaries and the expansion of the call centre business. In addition to making several key acquisitions in 2006, we laid the foundation for a strong future, by hiring additional personnel in key areas to support our accounting and back-office functions, as well as implemented the systems to allow the Company to better measure the performance of each of its units.

EARNINGS FROM OPERATIONS
 
Due to substantial negative impact from regulatory changes on mobile value-added service (''MVAS'') in the second half of 2006, the Company had recorded over $4 million of investment impairment, a non-cash nonrecurring item, against the Company's investment in various VAS subsidiaries in Q4 2006 alone.
 
Disposing or spin-off of the legacy telecom and VAS business units has been an integral part of the Company’s efforts to become a leading Asian gaming technology provider. Management, thus, found making conservative provisions for certain long outstanding receivables with those legacy business units was necessary under the circumstances. As a result, an aggregate of $8 million of allowance for doubtful debts was charged at the year end, in which approximately $6 million was related to long outstanding trade receivables, $1 million related to mostly long outstanding other receivables extended to set up domestic enterprises in China, and the rest $1 million related to subsidiary loans for business development purposes.
 
Excluding all non-cash and nonrecurring items as set out below, non-GAAP net loss of $1,619,000, as compared to net income of $2,489,000 of the same period last year. Decrease is primarily due to adverse regulatory changes and highly competitive market environments as previously discussed.

The Company’s policy is to provide 50% and 100% provisions for trade and other receivables over 180 days and 360 days respectively under allowance for doubt accounts. As a result, over $1 million in provisions were made for the aging trade receivable in each of the Company’s legacy mobile phone distribution business unit and subcontracting business unit in Hong Kong, and $0.5 million for the outstanding trade receivable of the Company’s data center business unit. The Company also has a policy to review all other receivables on an individual basis in addition to the aforementioned provision by aging policy. As a result, approximately $2.3 million worth of provisions were provided for potential loss of long outstanding accounts arising either as a result of setting up domestic businesses under private name for operations on behalf of the Company’s subsidiaries in China or specific accounts that are in dispute. Such accounts were considered doubtful should the Company dispose of those legacy business units in the near future as prescribed by its well-publicized business transformation strategy.
 
2.
Goodwill impairment is primarily due to impairment of $4,294,967 and $391,299 carried for the goodwill of Linkhead and Clickcom. Due to poor market prospects, board meeting minutes of Linkhead indicates that management is instructed to take actions to either liquidate the company or seek willing buyers for the company. Goodwill impairment for Clickcom, on the other hand, was made as the company was dormant as of December 31, 2006

Stock-based compensation expenses of $242,473 are due to adoption of SFAS123R during the year.

FUTURE LIQUIDITY NEEDS
 
As of December 31, 2006, we had approximately $1,900,000 in cash. We regularly review our cash funding requirements and attempt to meet those requirements through a combination of cash on hand; cash provided by operations, available borrowings under bank lines of credit and possible future public or private equity offerings. We evaluate possible acquisitions of, or investments in, businesses that are complementary to ours, which transactions may require the use of cash. We believe that our cash, other liquid assets, operating cash flows, credit arrangements, access to equity capital markets, taken together, provide adequate resources to fund ongoing operating expenditures. In the event that they do not, we may require additional funds in the future to support our working capital requirements or for other purposes and may seek to raise such additional funds through the sale of public or private equity as well as from other sources.
 
On February 06, 2007, our subsidiary, PacificNet Games Limited (PacGames) entered into a definitive agreement for a $5 million financing in the form of secured convertible debt with Pope Asset Management, LLC (Pope), an institutional investor. Proceeds from the financing will be used to provide PacGames with additional working capital in expanding its gaming technology operations, funding for strategic acquisitions in China and funding for general corporate purposes.
 
The $5 million convertible debt issued by PacGames to Pope, matures on February 6, 2010, and may be converted into 26% to 32% ownership interest in PacGames based on reaching certain net income milestones during fiscal year 2007 The interest rate on the convertible debt will initially be set at 8%, and shall increase to 15% if the note is not converted prior to maturity.
 
 
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
INFLATION
 
Inflation has not had a material impact on the Company's business in recent years.
 
CURRENCY EXCHANGE FLUCTUATIONS
 
All of the Company's revenues are denominated either in U.S. dollars or Hong Kong dollars, while its expenses are denominated primarily in Hong Kong dollars and Chinese renminbi ("RMB"). The value of the RMB-to-U.S. dollar or Hong Kong dollar-to-United States dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions. Since 1994, the conversion of renminbi into foreign currencies, including U.S. dollars, has been based on rates set by the People's Bank of China, which are set daily based on the previous day's inter-bank foreign exchange market rates and current exchange rates on the world financial markets. Since 1994, the official exchange rate for the conversion of renminbi to U.S. dollars had generally been stable and the renminbi had appreciated slightly against the U.S. dollar. However, on July 21, 2005, the Chinese government changed its policy of pegging the value of Chinese renminbi to the U.S. dollar. Under the new policy, Chinese renminbi may fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. Recently there has been increased political pressure on the Chinese government to decouple the renminbi from the United States dollar. At the recent quarterly regular meeting of People's Bank of China, its Currency Policy Committee affirmed the effects of the reform on Chinese renminbi exchange rate. Since February 2006, the new currency rate system has been operated; the currency rate of renminbi has become more flexible while basically maintaining stable and the expectation for a larger appreciation range is shrinking. Although a devaluation of the Hong Kong dollar or renminbi relative to the United States dollar would likely reduce the Company's expenses (as expressed in United States dollars), any material increase in the value of the Hong Kong dollar or renminbi relative to the United States dollar would increase the Company's expenses, and could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. For fluctuations in period to period exchange rates, the translation adjustment is required to translate from local functional currency to the USD reporting currency (not RMB to HKD to USD). The Company has never engaged in currency hedging operations and has no present intention to do so.
 
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
 
Credit risk represents the accounting loss that would be recognized at the reporting date if counterparties failed completely to perform as contracted. Concentrations of credit risk (whether on or off balance sheet) that arise from financial instruments exist for groups of customers or counterparties when they have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions as described below:
 
 
·
The Company's business is characterized by rapid technological change, new product and service development, and evolving industry standards and regulations. Inherent in the Company's business are various risks and uncertainties, including the impact from the volatility of the stock market, limited operating history, uncertain profitability and the ability to raise additional capital.
 
47

 
·
All of the Company's revenue is derived from Asia and Greater China. Changes in laws and regulations, or their interpretation, or the imposition of confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, devaluations of currency or the nationalization or other expropriation of private enterprises could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
 
·
If the Company is unable to derive any revenues from Greater China, it would have a significant, financially disruptive effect on the normal operations of the Company.
 
* A substantial portion of the operations of business operations depend on mobile telecommunications operators (operators) in China and any loss or deterioration of such relationship may result in severe disruptions to their business operations and the loss of a significant portion of the Company's revenue. The VIEs rely entirely on the networks and gateways of these operators to provide its wireless value-added services. Specifically these operators are the only entities in China that have platforms for wireless value-added services. The Company's agreements with these operators are generally for a period of less than one year and generally do not have automatic renewal provisions. If neither of them is willing to continue to cooperate with the Company, it would severely affect the Company's ability to conduct its existing wireless value-added services business.
 
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)
 
Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net earnings and other gains (losses) affecting stockholders' equity that, under generally accepted accounting principles are excluded from net earnings in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. Additionally, the translation adjustment is recorded as component of comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders' equity section of balance sheet
 
SEASONALITY AND QUARTERLY FLUCTUATIONS
 
Several of our businesses experience fluctuations in quarterly performance. Traditionally, the first quarter from January to March is a low season for our call center business due to the long Lunar New Year holidays in China Revenues and income from gaming products, call center and telecom value-added services tend to be higher in the fourth quarter due to special holiday promotions. Internet/Direct Commerce revenues also tend to be higher in the fourth quarter due to increased consumer spending during that period. Revenues from the gaming and VAS can vary from quarter to quarter due to new product launches and the seasonality of certain product lines.
 
Sales of our gaming machines to Macau and other Asian casinos and gaming operators are generally strongest in Q3 and Q4 and slowest in the Chinese New Year holiday season in Q1. In addition, quarterly revenues and net income may increase when we receive a larger number of approvals for new games from regulators and gaming operators than in other quarters, when a game or platform that achieves significant player appeal is introduced or if gaming is permitted in a significant new jurisdiction. In addition, as further technology advancements become available for the gaming industry, replacement or conversion of gaming machines will be impacted once any such advanced technology is approved by regulators.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
 
On January 25, 2007, we reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K that our independent public accounting firm, Clancy & Co. P.L.L.C. (“Clancy”), resigned as of January 19, 2007. We also reported and Clancy confirmed and agreed in a letter to the SEC that was filed as an exhibit to the Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed on February 8, 2007 that there were no disagreements between Clancy and us on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, during the two fiscal years of the Company ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 and subsequently up to the date of resignation which disagreements, if not resolved to Clancy’s satisfaction, would have caused Clancy to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report issued in connection with the audit of the Company’s financial statements. None of the reportable events described under Item 304(a)(1)(v)(A)-(D) of Regulation S-K occurred within the two fiscal years of the Company ended December 31, 2004 and 2005 and subsequently up to the date of resignation. Clancy's auditors' report on the financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2005 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and such audit report was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
 
After Clancy’s resignation, on March 12, 2007 we received an e-mail communication from Clancy to which was attached a letter dated February 17, 2007 (“March 12 Letter”). Clancy has stated that the March 12 Letter was initially sent on February 17, 2007 by regular mail to our Beijing, China headquarters, however, we did not receive the letter until it was forwarded in the March 12, 2007 e-mail communication. The March 12 Letter suggested that certain of the criteria by which an option grant date is determined may not have been satisfied in connection with our fixing of the grant date for options. The communication did not include any particular factual information - including which criteria were in question or which option grants might be involved - that would assist the audit committee of our board of directors in determining whether the financial statements for any of the preceding three fiscal years should no longer be relied upon due to an error in our method of accounting for stock option grants. After receipt of the communication, the Company’s Audit Committee and Compensation Committee convened a telephonic meeting on March 17, 2007, at which all members of the Board of Directors, the Company’s executive officers and the Company’s legal counsel attended. As a result of this meeting, the Audit Committee has commissioned an independent investigation to address all the issues raised by Clancy. Subsequently, by letter dated March 16, 2007 Clancy withdrew its audit reports for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and 2005.
 
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
 
We maintain controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Based upon the evaluation of those controls and procedures performed as of the period ended December 31, 2006, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were inadequate, need to be strengthened and were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms
 
During the year, the Company took various steps to maintain the accuracy of our financial disclosures, and improve company internal controls over financial reporting. An internal control team lead by senior managers has been established to review our entire internal control system, including but not limited to risk identification, control procedure setup, staff training, segregation of incompatible job duties, design of management reporting system, definition and delegation of signing authority, establishment of documentation system and implementation of a company-wide ERP system.  It is our expectation that the implementation of these procedures and systems will assist us in making our disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting effective.

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF EXCHANGE ACT
 
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), requires our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock and other equity securities. Such executive officers, directors, and greater than 10% beneficial owners are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms filed by such reporting persons.
 
Based solely on our review of such forms furnished to us and written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that the following executive officers and directors failed to timely file Form 4's: Tony Tong failed to timely file Form 4's, one Form 4 reporting the exercise of a stock option and three Form 4's each reporting the grant of stock options; Victor Tong failed to timely file Form 4's, one Form 4 reporting the exercise of a stock option and four Form 4's each reporting the grant of stock options; Shaojian Wang failed to timely file Form 4's, two Form 4's each reporting the exercise of stock options and three Form 4's each reporting the grant of stock options; Michael Chun Ha failed to timely file Form 4's, one Form 4 reporting the exercise of an option and three Form 4's each reporting the grant of stock options; Peter Wang failed to timely file three Form 4's each reporting the grant of stock options; Jeremy Goodwin failed to timely file three Form 4's each reporting the grant of stock options and Tao Jin failed to timely file three Form 4's each reporting the grant of stock options.
 
ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
 
Overview
 
This compensation discussion describes the material elements of compensation awarded to, earned by, and paid to each of our executive officers listed in the Summary Compensation Table below (the "named executive officers") during the last completed fiscal year. This compensation discussion focuses on the information contained in the following tables and related footnotes and narrative primarily for the last completed fiscal year, but we have also described compensation actions taken before or after the last completed fiscal year to the extent it enhances the understanding of our executive compensation disclosure.
 
The compensation committee currently oversees the design and administration of our executive compensation program.
 
53

 
Objectives and Philosophy
 
In General. The objectives of our compensation programs are to:
 
 
·
Provide our executive officers with both cash and equity incentives to motivate them to further the interests of the company and our stockholders
 
·
Provide employees with long-term incentives to assist in creating a culture of corporate ownership, which we believe will assist in retaining these employees
 
·
Provide stability during our growth stage
 
Generally, the compensation of our executive officers is composed of an annual base salary annual incentive compensation and equity awards in the form of stock options, other benefits and perquisites, post-termination severance and acceleration of stock option vesting for certain named executive officers upon termination and/or a change in control. Our other benefits and perquisites consist of life and health insurance benefits. In setting base salaries, the compensation committee generally reviews the individual contributions of the particular executive. In addition, stock options are granted to provide the opportunity for long-term compensation based upon the performance of our common stock over time. Our philosophy is to aggregate these elements so that they reach at a level that is commensurate with our size and sustained performance.
 
Elements of Compensation
 
Compensation consists of following elements:
 
Base Salary. Base salaries for our executive officers are established based on the scope of their responsibilities, taking into account competitive market compensation paid by other companies in our industry for similar positions, and the other elements of the executive officer’s compensation, including stock-based compensation. Our intent is to target executive base salaries near the median of the range of salaries for executives in similar positions with similar responsibilities at comparable companies, in line with our compensation philosophy. Base salaries are reviewed annually, and may be increased annually to realign salaries with market levels after taking into account individual responsibilities, performance and experience. Based on publicly available information, we believe that the base salaries established for our executive officers are comparable to those paid by similar companies in our industry.
 
Annual Bonuses. Our executive officers and certain other employees are eligible for annual cash bonuses, which are paid at the discretion of our compensation committee. The employment agreement with our executive officers do not provide for minimum bonuses. The determination of the amount of annual bonuses paid to our executive officers generally reflects a number of subjective considerations, including the performance of our company overall and the contributions of the executive officer during the relevant period.
 
Incentive Compensation. We believe that long-term performance is achieved through an ownership culture that encourages long-term performance by our executive officers through the use of stock-based awards. Our 2006 Stock Option Plan permits the grant of stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, and performance-based stock awards. Under power delegated by our Board, the Compensation Committee of the Board has the authority to award incentive compensation to our executive officers, employees, consultants and directors in such amounts and on such terms as the committee determines in its sole discretion.
 
Currently, we do not maintain any incentive compensation plans based on pre-defined performance criteria. Incentive compensation is intended to compensate executive officers, employees, consultants and directors for achieving financial and operational goals and for achieving individual annual performance objectives. These objectives are expected to vary depending on the individual executive, but are expected to relate generally to strategic factors such as expansion of our services and to financial factors such as improving our results of operations. The actual amount of incentive compensation for the prior year will be determined following a review of each executive’s individual performance and contribution to our strategic goals conducted during the first quarter of each year. Specific performance targets used to determine incentive compensation for each of our executive officers in 2007 have not yet been determined.
 
54

 
Other Compensation. Each employment agreement provides the executive with certain other benefits, including reimbursement of business and entertainment expenses and housing allowance. Each executive is eligible to participate in all benefit plans and programs that are or in the future may be available to other executive employees of our company, including any profit-sharing plan, thrift plan, health insurance or health care plan, disability insurance, pension plan, supplemental retirement plan, vacation and sick leave plan, and other similar plans. The compensation committee in its discretion may revise, amend or add to the officer’s executive benefits and perquisites as it deems advisable. We believe that these benefits and perquisites are typically provided to senior executives of similar companies.
 
Compensation Committee Report on Executive Compensation
 
Our compensation committee has certain duties and powers as described in its charter. The compensation committee is currently composed of the four independent directors named at the end of this report, each of whom is independent as defined by the NASDAQ Global Market listing standards.
 
The compensation committee has reviewed and discussed with management the disclosures contained in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based upon this review and discussion, the compensation committee recommended to our Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K to be filed with the SEC.

1998 Incentive Stock Option Plan

 Administration of the 1998 Plan

2,000,000 shares of common stock are reserved under the PacificNet, Inc. 1998 Stock Option Plan (the "1998 Incentive Plan) for issuance upon exercise of stock options. . The 1998 Incentive Plan provides for a term of ten years from the date of its adoption by the board of directors (unless the Incentive Plan is earlier terminated), after which no awards may be made.   The 1998 Plan may be administered by the Board of Directors or a committee of the Board of Directors (in either case, the "Committee"), which has complete discretion to select the optionees and to establish the terms and conditions of each option, subject to the provisions of the 1998 Plan. Options granted under the 1998 Plan may be "incentive stock options" as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), or nonqualified options.

 Options
 
Options granted under the 1998 Plan may be either “incentive stock options” (“ISOs”), which are intended to meet the requirements for special federal income tax treatment under the Code, or “nonqualified stock options” (“NQSOs”). Options may be granted on such terms and conditions as the Committee may determine; provided, however, that the exercise price of an option may not be less than the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant and the term of the option my not exceed 10 years (110% of such value and 5 years in the case of an ISO granted to an employee who owns (or is deemed to own) more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of capital stock of the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the Company). ISOs may only be granted to employees. In addition, the aggregate fair market value of Common Stock covered by ISOs (determined at the time of grant) which are exercisable for the first time by an employee during any calendar year may not exceed $100,000. Any excess is treated as a NQSO.

Transferability of Options. 

The Options may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Optionee, only by the Optionee.

Term; Amendments
 
The 1998 Plan is effective for 10 years, unless it is sooner terminated or suspended. The Committee may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the 1998 Plan; provided that no amendment requiring stockholder approval will be effective unless such approval has been obtained. No termination or suspension of the 2005 Plan will affect an award which is outstanding at the time of the termination or suspension.

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences

Incentive stock options granted under the 1998 Plan will be afforded favorable federal income tax treatment under the Code. If an option is treated as an incentive stock option, the optionee will recognize no income upon grant or exercise of the option unless the alternative minimum tax rules apply. Upon an optionee's sale of the shares (assuming that the sale occurs at least two years after grant of the option and at least one year after exercise of the option), any gain will be taxed to the optionee as long-term capital gain. If the optionee disposes of the shares prior to the expiration of the above holding periods, then the optionee will recognize ordinary income in an amount generally measured as the difference between the exercise price and the lower of the fair market value of the shares at the exercise date or the sale price of the shares. Any gain or loss recognized on such a premature sale of the shares in excess of the amount treated as ordinary income will be characterized as capital gain or loss.

All other options granted under the 1998 Plan will be nonstatutory stock options and will not qualify for any special tax benefits to the optionee. An optionee will not recognize any taxable income at the time he or she is granted a nonstatutory stock option. However, upon exercise of the nonstatutory stock option, the optionee will recognize ordinary income for federal income tax purposes in an amount generally measured as the excess of the then fair market value of each share over its exercise price. Upon an optionee's resale of such shares, any difference between the sale price and the fair market value of such shares on the date of exercise will be treated as capital gain or loss and will
generally qualify for long-term capital gain or loss treatment if the shares have been held for more than one year. Recently enacted legislation provides for reduced tax rates for long-term capital gains based on the taxpayer's income and the length of the taxpayer's holding period.

The foregoing does not purport to be a complete summary of the federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to holders of options or to the Company. It also does not reflect provisions of the income tax laws of any municipality, state or foreign country in which an optionee may reside, nor does it reflect the tax consequences of an optionee's death.

2005 Equity Incentive Plan
 
Awards
 
The 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2005 Plan") provides for the grant of options and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) of up to an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock to directors, officers, employees and independent contractors of the Company or its affiliates. If any award expires, is cancelled, or terminates unexercised or is forfeited, the number of shares subject thereto is again available for grant under the 2005 Plan.  
 
58

 
Administration of the 2005 Plan
 
The 2005 Plan is administered by the Board of Directors or a committee of the Board of Directors consisting of not less than two members of the Board, each of whom is a “non-employee director” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act and an “outside director” within the meaning of Code Section 162(m) (in either case, the “Committee”). Among other things, the Committee has complete discretion, subject to the express limits of the 2005 Plan, to determine the persons to be granted an award, the type of award to be granted, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to each award, the exercise price of each option, the term of each award, the vesting schedule for an award, whether to accelerate vesting, the value of the stock, and the required withholding. The Committee may amend, modify or terminate any outstanding award, provided that the participant’s consent to such action is required if the action would materially and adversely affect the participant. The Committee is also authorized to construe the award agreements, and may prescribe rules relating to the 2005 Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee does not have any authority to grant or modify an award under the 2005 Plan with terms or conditions that would cause the grant, vesting or exercise to be considered nonqualified “deferred compensation” subject to Code Section 409A.

Limitation on number of Awards.

 Among other things, in order for the grant of stock options and SARs to qualify as performance-based compensation and be excluded from the Company’s corporate income tax deduction cap of $1,000,000 per year for its Named Executive Officers, as set forth in Section 162(m) of the Code, the stockholders must approve the maximum number of shares of common stock that can be issued to any one person under the Plan in any calendar year. The number of shares of Common Stock for which stock options or SARs may be granted to a participant under the 2005 Plan in any calendar year cannot exceed 500,000.
 
Options
 
Options granted under the 2005 Plan may be either “incentive stock options” (“ISOs”), which are intended to meet the requirements for special federal income tax treatment under the Code, or “nonqualified stock options” (“NQSOs”). Options may be granted on such terms and conditions as the Committee may determine; provided, however, that the exercise price of an option may not be less than the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant and the term of the option my not exceed 10 years (110% of such value and 5 years in the case of an ISO granted to an employee who owns (or is deemed to own) more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of capital stock of the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the Company). ISOs may only be granted to employees. In addition, the aggregate fair market value of Common Stock covered by ISOs (determined at the time of grant) which are exercisable for the first time by an employee during any calendar year may not exceed $100,000. Any excess is treated as a NQSO.
 
 Stock Appreciation Rights.
 
Stock appreciation rights may be granted under our 2005 Plan. Stock appreciation rights allow the recipient to receive the appreciation in the fair market value of our common stock between the exercise date and the date of grant. The Committee determines the terms of stock appreciation rights, including when such rights become exercisable and whether to pay the increased appreciation in cash or with shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof. Stock appreciation rights expire under the same terms that apply to stock options.

Additional Terms
 
Except as provided in the 2005 Plan, awards granted under the 2005 Plan are not transferable and may be exercised only by the respective grantees during their lifetime or by their guardian or legal representative. Each award agreement will specify, among other things, the effect on an award of the disability, death, retirement, authorized leave of absence or other termination of employment. The Company may require a participant to pay the Company the amount of any required withholding in connection with the grant, vesting, exercise or disposition of an award. A participant is not considered a stockholder with respect to the shares underlying an award until the shares are issued to the participant.
 
Term; Amendments
 
The 2005 Plan is effective for 10 years, unless it is sooner terminated or suspended. The Committee may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the 2005 Plan; provided that no amendment requiring stockholder approval will be effective unless such approval has been obtained. No termination or suspension of the 2005 Plan will affect an award which is outstanding at the time of the termination or suspension.
 
Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences
 
The following is a general summary of the federal income tax consequences under current tax law of options and stock appreciation rights. It does not purport to cover all of the special rules, including special rules relating to participants subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act and the exercise of an option with previously-acquired shares, or the state or local income or other tax consequences inherent in the ownership and exercise of stock options and the ownership and disposition of the underlying shares or the ownership and disposition of restricted stock.
 
59

 
Options. A participant does not recognize taxable income upon the grant of NQSO or an ISO. Upon the exercise of a NQSO, the participant recognizes ordinary income in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares acquired on the date of exercise over the exercise price thereof, and the Company will generally be entitled to a deduction for such amount at that time. If the participant later sells shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of a NQSO, the participant recognizes long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending on the period for which the shares were held. Long-term capital gain is generally subject to more favorable tax treatment than ordinary income or short-term capital gain.
 
Upon the exercise of an ISO, the participant does not recognize taxable income If the participant disposes of the shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an ISO more than two years after the date of grant and more than one year after the transfer of the shares to the participant, the participant recognizes long-term capital gain or loss and the Company is not be entitled to a deduction. However, if the participant disposes of such shares within the required holding period, all or a portion of the gain is treated as ordinary income and the Company is generally entitled to deduct such amount.

  Stock Appreciation Rights. Generally, no taxable income is realized upon the grant of an SAR. Upon exercise, the holder of the SAR is taxed at ordinary income tax rates on the amount of any cash and the fair market value of any stock received.
 
In addition to the tax consequences described above, a participant may be subject to the alternative minimum tax, which is payable to the extent it exceeds the participant’s regular tax. For this purpose, upon the exercise of an ISO, the excess of the fair market value of the shares over the exercise price therefore is an adjustment which increases alternative minimum taxable income. In addition, the participant’s basis in such shares is increased by such excess for purposes of computing the gain or loss on the disposition of the shares for alternative minimum tax purposes. If a participant is required to pay an alternative minimum tax, the amount of such tax which is attributable to deferral preferences (including the incentive option adjustment) is allowed as a credit against the participant’s regular tax liability in subsequent years. To the extent the credit is not used, it is carried forward.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.
 
There were no transactions, or currently proposed transactions in an amount exceeding $120,000, since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year in which the Company was or is to be a participant and in which any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
 
We will reimburse our officers and directors for any reasonable out-of-pocket business expenses incurred by them in connection with certain activities on our behalf such as identifying and investigating possible target businesses and business combinations. There is no limit on the amount of accountable out-of-pocket expenses reimbursable by us, which will be reviewed only by our board or a court of competent jurisdiction if such reimbursement is challenged.
 
All ongoing and future transactions between us and any of our officers and directors or their respective affiliates, including loans by our officers and directors, will be on terms believed by us to be no less favorable than are available from unaffiliated third parties and such transactions or loans, including any forgiveness of loans, will require prior approval in each instance by a majority of our uninterested “independent” directors (to the extent we have any) or the members of our board who do not have an interest in the transaction, in either case, who had access, at our expense, to our attorneys or independent legal counsel.
 
Our board of directors has determined that Peter Wang, Michael Ha, Jeremy Goodwin and Tao Jin are considered “independent” under Section 121(B) (as currently applicable to the Company) of the listing standards of The NASDAQ Stock Market.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Pacific Net Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of PacificNet Inc (a Delaware Corporation) and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and the related consolidated income statements, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. The financial statements of PacificNet Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 were audited by other auditor whose report dated April 25, 2006, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. As discussed in Note 18 to the financial statements, the Company has adjusted its 2005 and 2004 financial statements to retrospectively apply the stock option pricing. The other auditor reported on the financial statements before the retrospective adjustment. The other auditor has withdrawn their opinion.
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standard established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of PacificNet Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and the results of their consolidated operations and cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company incurred net losses of $20,093,000.  In addition, the Company had a negative cash flow in operating activities amounting to $8,885,000 in the year ended December 31, 2006, and the Company’s accumulated deficit was $47,739,000 as of December 31, 2006. In addition, the Company is in default on its convertible debenture obligation. These factors, among others, as discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. As discussed in Note 18, the financial statements for the two years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 have been restated.

PACIFICNET INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Amounts expressed in United States dollars unless otherwise stated)
 
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
PacificNet Inc. (referred to herein as "PacificNet" or the "Company") was originally incorporated in the State of Delaware on April 8, 1987. Through our subsidiaries we provide outsourcing services, value-added telecom services (VAS) and products (telecom and gaming) services. Our business process outsourcing (BPO) services include call centers, providing customer relationship management (CRM), and telemarketing services, and our information technology outsourcing (ITO) includes software programming and development. We are value-added resellers and providers of telecom VAS, which is comprised of interactive voice response (IVR) systems, call center management systems, and voice over Internet protocol (VOIP), as well as mobile phone VAS, such as short messaging services (SMS) and multimedia messaging services (MMS). Our products (telecom and gaming) include gaming technology and communication products distribution. The Company's operations are primarily targeted in Greater China and certain Asian country markets.
 
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and present the financial statements of the Company and its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries including variable interest entities ("VIEs") for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Investments in entities in which the Company can exercise significant influence, but which are less than majority owned and not otherwise controlled by the Company, are accounted for under the equity method.
 
The Company has adopted FASB Interpretation No. 46R "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46R"), an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51. FIN 46R requires a Variable Interest Entity (VIE) to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss for the VIE or is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE's residual returns. VIEs are those entities in which the Company, through contractual arrangements, bears the risks of, and enjoys the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entities, and therefore the company is the primary beneficiary of these entities. Acquisitions of subsidiaries or variable interest entities are accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The results of subsidiaries or variable interest entities acquired during the year are included in the consolidated income statements from the effective date of acquisition.
 
INITIAL MEASUREMENT OF VIE- The Company initially measures the assets, liabilities, and non-controlling interests of the VIEs at their fair values at the date of the acquisitions. Goodwill is recorded for the excess of the fair value of the newly consolidated assets and the reported amount of assets transferred by the primary beneficiary to the VIE over the sum of the fair value of the consideration paid, the reported amount of any previously held interests, and the fair value of the newly consolidated liabilities and non-controlling interests are allocated and reported as a pro rata adjustment of the amounts that would have been assigned to all of the newly consolidated assets as if the initial consolidation had resulted from a business combination.
 
ACCOUNTING AFTER INITIAL MEASUREMENT OF VIE - Subsequent accounting for the assets, liabilities, and non-controlling interest of a consolidated variable interest entity are accounted for as if the entity were consolidated based on voting interests and the usual accounting rules for which the VIE operates are applied as they would to a consolidated subsidiary as follows:
 
 
·
Carrying amounts of the VIE are consolidated into the financial statements of PacificNet as the primary beneficiary (referred as "Primary Beneficiary" or "PB")
 
 
·
Inter-company transactions and balances, such as revenues and costs, receivables and payables between or among the Primary Beneficiary and the VIE(s) are eliminated in their entirety
 
 
·
There is no direct ownership interest by the Primary Beneficiary in the VIE, equity of the VIE is eliminated with an offsetting credit to minority interest
 
PRC laws and regulations restrict us, as a foreign entity, from having a direct controlling interest in entities such as Beijing Xing Chang Xin Sci -tech Development Co. Ltd (IMOBILE-DE) and Guangzhou Sunroom Information Industry Co., Ltd. (Sunroom-DE) that hold operating licenses to engage in domestic online ecommerce and telecom value-added services in China. As a result, we conduct substantially all of our operations through Beijing PacificNet IMOBILE Technology Co., Ltd (WOFE) and Technology Ltd. and Guangzhou 3G Information Technology Co., Ltd. (WOFE). We own 51% of the shares in each of the WOFEs and each WOFE signed Consulting and Services Agreements with IMOBILE-DE and Sunroom-DE (the entities that actually carry out the operating activities). These agreements provide that all of the DE profits will flow through to the respective WOFEs. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company guarantees any obligations undertaken by these companies under their contractual agreements with third parties, and the Company is entitled to receive service fees in an amount equal to 51% of the net income of these companies. Accordingly, we bear the risks of and enjoy the rewards associated with the investments in the WOFEs.
 
F-6

The operations of DEs are managed by their original management teams, however, the Company has the power to appoint or change directors and senior management because it indirectly ultimately controls the voting power of the shareholders of each DE through the Power of Attorney given to PacificNet's President according to the operating agreements between the DEs and WOFEs. Pursuant to the Consulting and Service Agreements signed between each WOFE and their respective DE, the WOFE ("Party A") agrees to be the exclusive provider of telecom consulting services to the DE ("Party B"). During the term of the agreement, Party B shall not accept technical and consulting services provided by any third party. Party B agrees to pay a fee to Party A equal to 100% of its monthly net income for the services provided. Payment of the service fees has been secured through a share pledge agreement with the shareholders of each of the DEs, whereby they pledged all of their shares to the respective WOFE.
 
(1) Each of the DEs, by design, is thinly capitalized because a substantial portion of PacificNet's invested amounts or consideration were paid or payable directly to previous owners of Sunroom-DE and Imobile-DE for entering into the acquisition transactions while none of the investment consideration was injected into the DEs. Therefore, additional funding from PacificNet is needed to support the DEs' business development and working capital.
 
(2) Fees from Service Contracts are substantial, but are not commensurate with the level of service provided by the WOFEs to the DEs. The contractual and funding arrangements with the DEs evidence that PacificNet has closely participated in the majority of the DEs' economics. PacificNet is the primary beneficiary through its WOFE subsidiaries since PacificNet is the only enterprise with a sufficiently large interest in the VIEs. In compliance with PRC's foreign investment restrictions on Internet Content Provider and Value Added Telecom Services Provider's laws and regulations, the Company conducts all of its value-added services for telecom in China via the following significant domestic VIEs below. The respective management agreements between the VIE's and WOFE's create a variable interest and accordingly, these two Vies are consolidated as VIE through their respective WOFEs from the date of acquisition.
 
The following is a summary of all the VIEs of the Company:
 
Beijing Xing Chang Xin Sci -tech Development Co. Ltd (the "Imobile-VIE"), a China company controlled through business agreement. Through Imobile-VIE, a variable interest entity, PacificNet is able to engage in the business of ICP, and operates mobile distribution and value-added service in the PRC. The business of the VIE is managed by their original management teams. Imobile-VIE is owned by Gao Chunhui, CEO 51% and Liu Lei, COO 49%, of the Company. The registered capital of the VIE is RMB 2,000,000. The VIE's board of directors has the power to appoint the General Manager of the VIE who in turn has the power to appoint other members of the management. PacificNet does not directly participate in the daily operation of the VIE. It however has the power to change the management, if needed, because PacificNet is directly or indirectly controlling the board of this VIE.
 
Guangzhou Sunroom Information Industrial Co., Ltd. ("Sunroom-VIE"), a PRC registered domestic enterprise, controlled by PacificNet through a series of contractual agreements. It is responsible for VAS in China under its ICP and VAS licenses. It is 31% owned by Mr. Wang Yongchao (CEO), 41.4% owned by Mr. Liao Mengjiang (COO) and 27.6% owned by non-participating shareholder, Mr. Sun Zhengquan. The registered capital of the VIE Company is $4.0 million. Sunroom-VIE is required to transfer their ownership in these entities to our subsidiaries when permitted by PRC laws and regulations and all voting rights are assigned to us. As of December 31, 2005, Sunroom-VIE's revenues and net loss accounted for approximately 11% and -1.2% of our consolidated revenues and net earnings before minority interests, respectively.
 
The initial capital investments in these VIEs were not funded by us but we have provided loans to these VIEs to fund their R&D and expansion plans. As of December 31, 2005, the amount of loans to Clickcom VIE and Sunroom VIE were approximately US $256,000 (low interest at 2%) and US $250,000 (interest free) respectively. None of the VIEs' assets were collateralized for our loans. Given the fact that we do not have direct ownership interests in these VIEs, the creditors of these VIEs will not have recourse to the general credit of our group being the primary beneficiary.
 
Under various contractual agreements, employee shareholders of the VIEs are required to transfer their ownership in these entities to our subsidiaries in China when permitted by PRC laws and regulations or to our designees at any time for the amount of the outstanding loans. All voting rights of the VIEs are then assigned to us. We have the power to appoint all directors and senior management personnel of the VIEs. Through our wholly owned subsidiaries in China, we have also entered into exclusive technical agreements and other service agreements with the VIEs, under which these subsidiaries provide technical services.
 
BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
 
The Company accounts for its business combinations using the purchase method of accounting. This method requires that the acquisition cost to be allocated to the assets and liabilities the Company acquired based on their fair values. The Company makes estimates and judgments in determining the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities, based on valuations using management's estimates and assumptions including its experience with similar assets and liabilities in similar industries. If different judgments or assumptions were used, the amounts assigned to the individual acquired assets or liabilities could be materially different.
 
GOODWILL AND PURCHASED INTANGIBLE ASSETS
 
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired as a result of the Company's acquisitions of interests in its subsidiaries and VIEs. Fair market value of the identifiable assets and liabilities, including tangible and intangible, is primarily ascertained with replacement cost method. At time of acquisition, based on market research and discussion with management, a benchmark is established with reference to comparable replacement cost in open market. Occasionally, net book value is used as a fair market value equivalent if the assets and liabilities of the newly acquired subsidiaries and/or VIEs were either current in nature or newly established.
 
F-7

Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets ("SFAS 142")," goodwill is no longer amortized, but tested for impairment upon first adoption and annually, thereafter, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment annually in accordance with SFAS 142. The assessment includes first comparing implied P/E valuation of the goodwill carrying subsidiaries (adjusted by R&D expenses written off) to benchmarks as found in comparable publicly traded companies. If a comfortable buffer over the public benchmark does not exist, more sophisticated DCF analysis, based on 5 year cash flows forecasts, will follow to ascertain if goodwill impairment is warranted.
 
The Company applies the criteria specified in SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" to determine whether an intangible asset should be recognized separately from goodwill. Intangible assets acquired through business acquisitions are recognized as assets separate from goodwill if they satisfy either the "contractual-legal" or "separability" criterion. Per SFAS 142, intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their estimated useful life and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets." Intangible assets, such as purchased technology, trademark, customer list, user base and non-compete agreements, arising from the acquisitions of subsidiaries and variable interest entities are recognized and measured at fair value upon acquisition. Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives from one to ten years. The Company reviews the amortization methods and estimated useful lives of intangible assets at least annually or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. The recoverability of an intangible asset to be held and used is evaluated by comparing the carrying amount of the intangible asset to its future net undiscounted cash flows. If the intangible asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds the fair value of the intangible asset, calculated using a discounted future cash flow analysis. The Company uses estimates and judgments in its impairment tests, and if different estimates or judgments had been utilized, the timing or the amount of the impairment charges could be different.
 
We currently have nine reporting units: EPRO, Smartime/Soluteck, Guangzhou 3G-WOFE (assets held for disposition), iMobile-WOFE, Shanghai Classic (including discontinued subsidiary - Yueshen), Wangrong, Clickcom (discontinued operation), PacificNet Games, Linkhead (discontinued operation), but those that are marked either assets held for disposition or discontinued are excluded for the purposes of goodwill assessment. We determined our reporting units if the entity constituted a business, financial information was available, and segment management can regularly review the operating results of that component. Excluding investment holding vehicles and self-developed units, reporting units only include those operating units that PacificNet holds 50% or more through acquisition and maintain effective control. Units such as PacificNet Solution, PacificNet Limited, and PacificNet Communication are 100% owned by PacificNet through self-development and not through acquisition. Therefore, there is no goodwill allocation to these self-developed units.
 
We allocated goodwill amongst the reporting units based on the consideration paid in shares and cash minus the proportional share of the fair value of net assets and liabilities at the time of acquisition specific to each reporting unit. The fair value of each reporting unit represents the amount at which the unit as a whole could be bought or sold in a current transaction between willing parties in an open marketplace. At the time of acquisition, the fair value of assets and liabilities was determined based on book value minus any potential write-down, if any, to reflect the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired in the transaction. The Company has one class of goodwill arising from business combination resulting from the acquisitions of our subsidiaries.  Goodwill has been revised to reflect certain expenses that should have been written off prior to certain acquisitions, not subsequent to the acquisitions, to better reflect the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in certain business combinations during 2003 in accordance with SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations”. Originally, the Company had acquired certain intangible assets such as research and development costs and related party receivables that were considered as part of the purchase price allocation, then subsequently expensed them at year end.
 
The total carrying amount of goodwill recorded on the balance sheets at December 31, 2006 is $6,552,000 and the changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the following reporting periods are summarized below:

The Company assesses the need to record impairment losses on our goodwill assets at least annually or when an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The assessment includes using a combination of qualitative and quantitative analyses such as DCF/PE multiples based on 5 year profit forecasts, and published comparables, where applicable. The Company concluded that there have been no material adverse changes on the operating environments during the reporting periods that would have otherwise affected the carrying value of the goodwill. In addition, there has been no disposal of any reporting subsidiaries and, as a result, no gain or loss is recognized during those reporting periods.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
 
The Company periodically assesses the need to record impairment losses on long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and purchased intangible assets, used in operations and its investments when indicators of impairment are present indicating the carrying value may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset (if any) are less than the carrying value of the asset. When impairment is identified, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value. All goodwill will no longer be amortized and potential impairment of goodwill and purchased intangible assets with indefinite useful lives will be evaluated using the specific guidance provided by SFAS No. 142 and SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."
 
This impairment analysis is performed at least annually. For investments in affiliated companies that are not majority-owned or controlled, indicators or value generally include revenue growth, operating results, cash flows and other measures. Management then determines whether there has been a permanent impairment of value based upon events and circumstances that have occurred since acquisition. It is reasonably possible that the impairment factors evaluated by management will change in subsequent periods, given that the Company operates in a volatile environment. This could result in material impairment charges in future periods.

INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATED COMPANIES
 
The Company's investments in affiliated companies for which its ownership exceeds 20%, but is not majority-owned or controlled, are accounted for using the equity method. The Company's investments in affiliated companies for which its ownership is less than 20% are accounted for using the cost method.
 
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)
 
Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net earnings and other gains (losses) affecting stockholders' equity that, under generally accepted accounting principles are excluded from net earnings in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income.
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
Revenues are derived from the following categories as classified by our operating segments (see Note 15): (1) outsourcing services including Business Process Outsourcing (BPO), call center, IT Outsourcing (ITO) and software development services; (2) Telecom Value-Added Telecom Services (VAS) including Content Providing (CP), Interactive Voice Response (IVR), Platform Providing (PP) and Service Providing (SP); and (3) Products (telecom & gaming) Services, including calling cards, GSM/ CDMA/ XiaoLingTong products, and multimedia self-service kiosks.
 
Revenues from outsourcing services are recognized when the services are rendered. Revenues from license agreements are recognized when a signed non-cancelable software license exists, delivery has occurred, the Company's fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable at the date of sale. Revenues from software development services are recognized when the customer accepts the installation and no significant modification or customization work is involved, in accordance with SOP 97-2 "Software Revenue Recognition." Revenues from support services such as consulting, implementation and training services are recognized when the services are performed, collectability is probable and such revenues are contractually nonrefundable.
 
Revenues from value-added telecom services are derived principally from providing mobile phone users with short messaging service ("SMS"), multimedia messaging service ("MMS"), color ring back tone ("CRBT"), wireless application protocol ("WAP") and interactive voice response system ("IVR"). These services include news and other content subscriptions, mobile dating service, picture and logo download, ring tones, ring back tones, mobile games, chat rooms and access to music files. These revenues from are charged on a monthly or per-usage basis and are recognized in the period in which the service is performed, provided that no significant Company obligations remain, collection of the receivables is reasonably assured and the amounts can be accurately estimated. In accordance with EITF No. 99-19, "Reporting Revenues Gross as a Principal Versus Net as an Agent," revenues are recorded on a gross basis when the Company is considered the primary obligor to the VAS users. Under the gross method, the amounts billed to VAS users are recognized as revenues and the fees charged or retained by the third-party operators are recognized as cost of revenues.
 
Revenues from the sale of products and systems are recognized when the product and system is completed, shipped, and the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred.
 
Revenues from the distribution of all types of calling cards and product sales is recognized in accordance with EITF No. 99-19, "Reporting Revenues Gross as a Principal Versus Net as an Agent," where revenues are recorded on a gross basis when the Company is considered the primary obligor to the users, maintains an inventory of products before the products are ordered by customers, has latitude in establishing the pricing power of products, is subject to physical inventory loss risk, and has credit risk as it is responsible for collecting the sales price from the customer and is responsible for paying the supplier regardless of whether or not the sales price is fully collectible.
 
The effect of post-shipment/delivery obligations, such as customer acceptance, product returns, etc. on our revenue recognition policy is as follows: (a) there is no effect on outsourcing services as revenue is recognized as the services are performed; however product sale revenue is recognized when contracts are approximately 80% completed for revenue recognition and fully when the customer signs the UAT, (i.e., "User Acceptance Form"); (b) there is no effect on telecom value-added services revenue as the product sales mainly involve IVR hardware that are from mature and stable products of multi-national vendors and there have been minimal returns historically; and (c) there is no effect on product (telecom & gaming) since the transactions are conducted on cash basis and revenue is recognized at the time the sale is transacted.

ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
 
The Company presents accounts receivable, net of allowances for doubtful accounts and returns. The allowances are calculated based on a detailed review of certain individual customer accounts, historical rates and an estimate of the overall economic conditions affecting the Company's customer base. The Company frequently monitors its customers' financial condition and credit worthiness and only sells products, licenses or services to customers where, at the time of the sale, collection is reasonably assured. If the financial condition of its customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. The Company also records reserves for doubtful accounts for all other customers based on a variety of factors including the length of time the receivables are past due, the financial health of the customer, macroeconomic considerations and historical experience. If circumstances related to specific customers change, the Company's estimates of the recoverability of receivables could be further adjusted. Allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2006 was approximately $3,400 (2005: $5).
 
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
 
Property and equipment is stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term, ranging from three to five years. Significant improvements and betterments are capitalized. Routine repairs and maintenance are expensed when incurred. When property and equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset account and related accumulated depreciation account are relieved, and any gain or loss is included in operations.
 
INVENTORIES
 
Inventories consist of finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is computed using the first-in, first-out method and includes all costs of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Market value is determined by reference to the sales proceeds of items sold in the ordinary course of business after the balance sheet date or management estimates based on prevailing market conditions. The inventories consist of finished goods and represent telecommunication products such as mobile phone, rechargeable phone cards, smart chip, and interactive voice response cards.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
Income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability approach, which requires the recognition of income taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements or tax returns. The measurement of current and deferred tax liabilities and assets is based on provisions of the enacted tax laws; the effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by the amount of any tax benefits that, based on available evidence assessed using the criteria in SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," will not more-likely-than-not be realized.
 
The Company records a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, if any, based on 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. If the Company is able to utilize more of its deferred tax assets than the net amount previously recorded when unanticipated events occur, an adjustment to deferred tax assets would be reflected in income when those events occur.
 
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS AND CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE COSTS
 
Expenditures related to the research and development of new products and processes, including significant improvements and refinements to existing products are expensed as incurred, unless they are required to be capitalized.
 
Software development costs are required to be capitalized when a product's technological feasibility has been established by completion of a detailed program design or working model of the product, and ending when a product is available for release to customers. For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company did not capitalize any costs related to the purchase of software and related technologies and content.
 
EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS)
 
Basic and diluted earnings or loss per share (EPS) amounts in the financial statements are computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus dilutive common stock equivalents. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income/loss available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and other dilutive securities. Dilutive earnings per share for 2006 exclude the potential dilutive effect of 889,456 warrants because their impact would be anti-dilutive based on current market prices. 800,000 convertible debentures are tested by using if-converted method. The result shows when convertible debentures are included in the computation, diluted EPS increases. According to SFAS No.128, those convertible debentures are ignored in the computation of diluted EPS. All per share and per share information are adjusted retroactively to reflect stock splits and changes in par value.

F-11

 
The reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted EPS calculations was as follows for the years ended December 31, 2006. As we have a net loss for reporting period, the effect of common stocks equivalent (options + warrants) is anti-dilutive, therefore, the “dilutive potential from assumed exercised of stock options and warrants” is zero for year 2006:

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
 
Prior to January 1, 2006, PacificNet accounted for awards granted under stock-based compensation plans following the recognition and measurement principles of APB 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. Compensation expense, if any, is recognized for awards granted at an exercise price less than fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.
 
Effective January 1, 2006, PacificNet adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R). See Item 6 for a description of the Company’s adoption of SFAS 123R.The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which is consistent with the valuation techniques previously utilized for options in footnote disclosures required under SFAS 123,as amended by FASB Statement No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure.” The determination of the fair value of stock-based compensation awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables, including the expected volatility of the Company’s stock price over the term of the awards, actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. The compensation costs, which approximated $242,473 for year 2006, are recognized on a straight-line base over the option vesting term and the amortized cost is included in selling, general and administrative expenses. The valuation provisions of SFAS 123(R) apply to new grants and unvested grants that were outstanding as of the effective date.
 
During year 2006, we had 370,500 stock options exercisable, 394,000 options were exercised, and 680,000 options granted in year 2005 were cancelled. The board also authorized to issue 500,000 options on September 21, 2006. However due to the increasing cost of option administration, the board of directors decided to cancel all options authorized during year 2005 and 2006, and plan to issue restricted stock or stock appreciation right (SAR) for future executive and employee incentive compensation. See note 12 b) for the status of the Company’s stock option plan.

CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES
 
On March 13, 2006, we completed a private placement in which we sold $8,000,000 in convertible debentures and issued warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 400,000 shares of common stock. The debentures are convertible at any time into shares of our common stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $10.00 per share, subject to adjustments for certain dilutive events. The debentures are due March 13, 2009. The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years at an exercise price of $12.20 per share. At the closing of the private placement, we prepaid the first year's interest on debentures equal to 5% of the aggregate principal amount of debentures. We will pay interest in cash or shares, provided that certain conditions are met, at the rate of 6% for the second year the debentures are outstanding and then 7% for the third. Beginning January 1, 2007, we are obligated to redeem up to $320,000 every month, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties. We also have the option to prepay the debentures at any time, provided that certain conditions have been met, after the 12 month anniversary of the effective date of the registration statement that has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the common stock issuable upon conversion of the debentures, some or all of the outstanding debentures for cash in an amount equal to 120% of the principal amount outstanding, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties outstanding. At any time after the six month anniversary of the effective date of the registration statement, we may force the holders to convert up to 50% of the then outstanding principal amount of the debentures, subject to certain trading conditions being met. If any event of default occurs under the debentures or other related documents, the holders may elect to accelerate the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the debenture, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties, which shall become immediately due and payable.

F-12

Under the terms of a registration rights agreement entered into at the time of the private placement, the Company was obligated to file a registration statement with respect to the shares issuable under the debenture and the warrants by April 30, 2006, and have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC no later than June 28, 2006. Due to various factors, the Company did not file the registration statement until May 15, 2006, and it was not declared effective until December 8, 2006. Therefore, under the terms of the registration rights agreement, the Company was obligated to pay liquidated damages to the investors at the rate of 2% of the principal amount of the debenture each month beginning on June 28, 2006 until the effectiveness of the registration statement, which was equal to $1,120,000, in the aggregate.

In February 2007, upon reaching an agreement on the amount and payment of accrued liquidated damages, the Company signed a Settlement and Release Agreement with each of the investors. Under the terms of the Settlement and Release Agreements, the Company paid an aggregate $140,000 in cash as satisfaction in full of liquidated damages owed to Basso Fund Ltd., Basso Multi-Strategy Holding Fund Ltd. and Basso Private Opportunities Holding Fund Ltd.. Partial liquidated damages owed to Whalehaven Capital Fund Ltd. were paid in the amount of $35,000 in cash, with the remaining liquidated damages in the amount of $105,000 paid in the form of a new convertible debenture due February 2009, on substantially the same terms as the original debentures, except that interest only is paid on the new debentures until October 2008 and beginning in November 2008 until February 2009, when the new debentures are due, the monthly redemption amount under the new debentures shall be equal to $315,000. The remaining investors also agreed to accept the aggregate $840,000 in liquidated damages owed to them in the form of the new convertible debentures for the amount of their respective portion of the liquidated damages. The Company also agreed to amend the original debentures to shorten the term for payment of the original principal amount to a 22 month term. As a result the monthly redemption amount for the original debenture increased from $320,000 to $ 363,638. All other terms and conditions of the original debenture remains in full force and effect.
 
C.E. Unterberg, Towbin L.L.C. acted as placement agent and received a negotiated cash fee in the amount of $449,500 and a warrant to purchase up to 16,000 shares at an exercise price of $12.20 per share, which expire five years from the date of issuance. The fair value of these warrants totaled $28,141. Such amount was charged to other assets, net, and credited to additional paid-in capital and will be amortized over the life of the debentures. Maxim Group also acted as Placement Agent and received a cash fee in the amount of $50,000.

In connection with the issuance of the debentures, the Company incurred $1,106,135 of issuance costs, which primarily consisted of investment banker fees, legal and other professional fees. These costs have been recorded as additional expense during year 2006.

The gross proceeds of $8,000,000 are recorded as a current debenture liability. In addition, fair values attributed to the Investors’ warrants in accordance with EITF issue No. 00-19 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to and Potentially Settled in a Company’s Own Stock” are recorded as liabilities. The initial value related to the Investors’ warrants is $690,642. An aggregate loss of $213,692 representing the change in fair value of warrants was recognized during the twelve months ended December 31, 2006.

In accordance with recent FASB guidance, due to certain factors, including a liquidated damages provision in the registration rights agreement, the Company values and accounts for the embedded conversion feature and the warrants related to the debentures as derivatives. Accordingly, these derivative liabilities are measured at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings as long as they remain classified as liabilities. The Company reassesses the classification at each balance sheet date. If the classification required under EITF No. 00-19 changes as a result of events during the period, the contract should be reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification.
 
PROBABLE EVENT OF DEFAULT
 
On March 16, 2007 our predecessor auditor withdrew their opinion on our previously filed financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2005, December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003. As a result, on March 27, 2007, we notified the holders of the outstanding convertible debenture that we suspended use of the prospectus contained in our Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-134127) that was declared effective on December 8, 2006, due to the lack of fiscal year end 2005 and 2004 audited financial statements and that they must cease selling under the prospectus. The suspension of the use of the prospectus after April 17, 2007, could trigger an event of default under the registration rights agreement and the convertible debentures, and if any of the holders so elect, they could accelerate and demand payment under the debentures, in accordance with the registration rights agreement based on the following provisions.
 
 
a)
If, during the Effectiveness Period, either the effectiveness of the Registration Statement lapses for any reason or the Holder shall not be permitted to resell Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement for a period of more than 20 consecutive Trading Days or 60 non-consecutive Trading Days during any 12 month period, the Company has to pay ‘Mandatory Default Amount’ as
 
the sum of (i) the greater of (A) 130% of the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture, plus all accrued and unpaid interest hereon, or (B) the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture, plus all accrued and unpaid interest hereon, divided by the Conversion Price on the date the Mandatory Default Amount is either (a) demanded (if demand or notice is required to create an Event of Default) or otherwise due or (b) paid in full, whichever has a lower Conversion Price, multiplied by the VWAP on the date the Mandatory Default Amount is either (x) demanded or otherwise due or (y) paid in full, whichever has a higher VWAP, and (ii) all other amounts, costs, expenses and liquidated damages due in respect of this Debenture."
 
F-13

 
 
b)
If any Event of Default occurs, the outstanding principal amount of this Debenture plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and other amounts owing in respect thereof through the date of acceleration, shall become, at the Holder’s selection, immediately due and payable in cash at the Mandatory Default Amount. Commencing 5 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default that results in the eventual acceleration of this Debenture, the interest rate on this Debenture shall accrue at an interest rate equal to the lesser of 18% per annum or the maximum rate permitted under applicable law.
 
The provisions mentioned above and as per the terms of the Debenture, the Company has reclassified the principal amount of the Debenture of $8,000,000 and the principal amount of the new Debenture of $945,000 and the interest accrued thereon to the current liability.
 
The Company accrued 2% as liquidated damages and 30% as mandatory default amount from the date of ineffectiveness of registration statement as follows:

The Company also expensed the unamortized discount of $691,000 to expense for the year ended December 31, 2006.
 
ADVERTISING EXPENSES
 
Advertising expenses consist primarily of costs of promotion for corporate image and product marketing and costs of direct advertising. The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred and classify these costs under selling, general and administrative expenses, which amounted to $31,052 in 2006 (2005: $87,511).
 
CASH EQUIVALENTS
 
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the PacificNet's cash management are also included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the cash flow statement. Highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash equivalents.
 
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Company's securities including such person's immediate families, (ii) the Company's management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. (See Note 14)
 
RECLASSIFICATION
 
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These changes had no effect on previously reported results of operations or total stockholders' equity.
 
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
Fair value is described as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between informed willing parties, other than a forced liquidation. Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities are reported on the consolidated balance sheets at carrying value which approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The Company does not have any off balance sheet financial instruments.
 
F-14

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
 
CASH HELD IN BANKS. For those financial institutions that the Company maintains cash balances in the United States, the amounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000.
 
GEOGRAPHIC RISK. All of the Company's revenues are derived in Asia and Greater China and its operations are governed by Chinese laws and regulations. The operations in China are carried out by the subsidiaries and VIEs. If the Company was unable to derive any revenue from Asia and Greater China, it would have a significant, financially disruptive effect on the normal operations of the Company.
 
SIGNIFICANT RELATIONSHIPS. A substantial portion of the operations of the Company's VIEs (Dianxun-DE and Sunroom-DE) business operations depend on mobile telecommunications operators (operators) in China and any loss or deterioration of such relationship may result in severe disruptions to their business operations and the loss of a significant portion of the Company's revenue. The VIEs rely entirely on the networks and gateways of these operators to provide its wireless value-added services. Specifically these operators are the only entities in China that have platforms for wireless value-added services. The Company's agreements with these operators are generally for a period of less than one year and generally do not have automatic renewal provisions. If neither of them is willing to continue to cooperate with the Company, it would severely affect the Company's ability to conduct its existing wireless value-added services business.
 
MARKETABLE EQUITY SECURITIES
 
Marketable equity securities are classified as available-for-sale and are recorded at fair value in other assets on the balance sheet, with the change in fair value during the period excluded from earnings and recorded net of tax as a component of other comprehensive income. Realized gains or losses are charged to the income statement during the period in which the gain or loss is realized. Investments classified as available-for-sale securities include marketable equity securities of Unit Trust Funds and are based primarily on quoted market prices at December 31, 2006. The component costs of these securities are summarized as follows: cost of $559,000, gross unrealized losses of $1,000 and estimated fair value of $558,000. The acquisition of marketable securities and unrealized losses on marketable equity securities are recorded on consolidated statements of cash flows.
 
FOREIGN CURRENCY
 
The Company's reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The Company's operations in China and Hong Kong use their respective currencies as their functional currencies. The financial statements of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities and average rates of exchange in the period for revenue and expenses. Translation gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss as a component of shareholders' equity. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included in General and Administrative Expenses an amount of US $16,000. During the year ended December 31, 2006, the foreign currency translation adjustments to the Company's comprehensive income was $27,000 and the currency translation gain was approximately $72,000, primarily as a result of the Hong Kong dollars appreciating against the U.S. dollar.
 
SEGMENT INFORMATION
 
 The Company determines and classified its operating segments in accordance with SFAS No. 131 "DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION" based on the following considerations: (a) each of the Company's operating segments is a discrete business unit that earns revenues and incurs expenses; (b) the operating results are regularly reviewed by PacificNet's chief operating decision makers for the purposes of fine-tuning its strategies going forward, making resource allocation decisions such as whether further working capital advances are required and assessing individual performance; and (c) discrete financial information for each subsidiary within each operating segment is available. The chief operating decision makers are the Company's President and CEO and its Chairman, and their decisions are based on discussions with each segment's senior management and financial controllers regarding non-financial indicators such as customer satisfaction, loyalty and new marketplace competition as well as financial indicators such as internally generated financial statements, to assess overall financial performance.
 
GOING CONCERN
 
As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred accumulated losses of $47.7 million and $27.6 million as of December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. Negative cash flows from the operations of $8.9 million were noted for the year ended December 31, 2006. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
F-15


The Company has taken certain restructuring steps to provide the necessary capital to continue its operations. These steps included, but not limited to: 1) accelerate disposal and spin-off of unprofitable or unfavorable return-on-investment non-gaming operations. On April 30, 2007, the Company entered into a sale and purchase agreement to dispose of its interest in Guangzhou3G for a consideration of US$6 million. On May 5, 2007, the Company also entered into a sale and purchase agreement to dispose of the real estate in HK for approximately US$1 million; 2) focus on execution of the new high potential gaming business initiatives; 3) acquisition of profitable and/or strategic operations through issuance of equity instruments; 4) formation of strategic relationship with key gaming operators in Asia; 5) issuance and/or restructure of new long-term convertible debentures.
 
Recent Pronouncements
 
In February 2007, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. FAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted subject to specific requirements outlined in the new Statement. Therefore, calendar-year companies may be able to adopt FAS 159 for their first quarter 2007 financial statements.
 
The new Statement allows entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible financial assets and liabilities at fair value that are not otherwise required to be measured at fair value. If a company elects the fair value option for an eligible item, changes in that item's fair value in subsequent reporting periods must be recognized in current earnings. FAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to draw comparison between entities that elect different measurement attributes for similar assets and liabilities. The management is currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on financial statements.
 
In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS 158 ‘Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans—an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)’ This Statement improves financial reporting by requiring an employer to recognize the over funded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets of a not-for-profit organization. The Company currently does not have any defined benefit plan and so FAS 158 will not affect the financial statements.
 
In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS 157 ‘Fair Value Measurements’. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the Board having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, this Statement does not require any new fair value measurements. However, for some entities, the application of this Statement will change current practice. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The management is currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on financial statements.
 
F-16


In March 2006 FASB issued SFAS 156 “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets.” This Statement amends FASB Statement No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities,” with respect to the accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. The Company does not have any servicing assets and therefore the statement will not have any impact on the financial statements.  

In February 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments.” SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” and SFAF No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.” SFAS No. 155, permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation, clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to the requirements of SFAS No. 133, establishes a requirement to evaluate interest in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation, clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives, and amends SFAS No. 140 to eliminate the prohibition on the qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. The management is currently evaluating the effect of this pronouncement on financial statements.
 
In July 2006, the FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48) FIN 48 clarifies the accounting and reporting for uncertainties in income tax law. This interpretation prescribes a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company believes that the adoption of FIN 48 will not have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position.
 
2. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
 
During 2006 and 2005, PacificNet acquired various entities in accordance with the Company's strategy to grow via mergers and acquisitions. The entities acquired met various PacificNet acquisition criteria, which include reasonable expectations for positive earnings and cash flow within two years of acquisition and reputation for high quality and performance in the customer relationship management, brand name recognition, and well-established relationships with clients. Several factors contributed to the determination of the negotiated purchase price and deal structure. Among them were the value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, historical EBITDA and projected EBITDA. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at estimated fair values as determined by the Company's management based on information currently available and on current assumptions as to future operations
 
A summary of business acquisitions for the periods presented follows:
 
GUANGZHOU WANRONG INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY CO., LIMITED (INCORPORATED IN THE PRC)
 
On January 31, 2006, the Company, through its subsidiary PacificNet Strategic Investment Holdings Limited, consummated the acquisition of a 51% controlling interest in Guangzhou Wanrong Information Technology Co. Limited (Guangzhou Wanrong), one of the leading value-added telecom service providers in China, located in PRC Guangzhou. Since its inception in 2003, Guangzhou Wanrong has achieved strong growth in its VAS including SMS, WAP, JAVA, MMS, IVR, multimedia entertainment download services, media interactive products, mobile email services, life, sports, entertainment, and business information services. Guangzhou Wanrong was granted nationwide SMS service numbers "2388" for China Mobile and "9928" for China Unicom. Wanrong's integrated value-added mobile services system is valuable for the implementation of PacificNet's "iPACT program", a standard service-mark for PacificNet's VAS profit-sharing alliance partnership program.
 
The consideration was paid as follows:
 
(i) The purchase consideration for 51% of the equity interest of Guangzhou Wanrong was approximately US $1.75million, payable 21% in cash and 79% in restricted shares of PacificNet common stock valued at $8 per share, or about 173,000 restricted shares.
 
(ii) Under the purchase agreement, Guangzhou Wanrong has made a guarantee to generate US $500,000 in annual net income. In the event of a shortfall, the purchase price will be adjusted accordingly.

The cash portion of the purchase consideration was paid from working capital of the Company. The value of the common shares issued was determined based on the average market price of PacificNet's common shares over a reasonable period before and after the terms of the acquisition were agreed to and announced.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
OPERATING LEASES - The Company leases warehouse and office space under operating leases with fixed monthly rentals. None of the leases included contingent rentals. Lease expense charged to operations for 2006 amounted to $571,000 (2005: $494,000). Future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases are $680,000 for 2007, $764,000 for 2008 through 2011
 
RESTRICTED CASH - The Company has a $234,000 pledged bank deposit for Epro which represents overdraft protections with certain financial institutions.
 
BANK LINE OF CREDIT (2006): As of December 31, 2006, the Company’s outstanding bank lines of credit were as follows:
 
 
(i)
Epro has an overdraft banking facility with certain major financial institutions in the aggregate amount of $744,000, which is secured by a pledge of its fixed deposits of $234,000, pursuant to the following terms: interest will be charged at the Hong Kong Prime Rate per annum and payable at the end of each calendar month or the date of settlement, whichever is earlier.
 
(ii)
Smartime has an overdraft banking facility with a large Hong Kong bank in the aggregate amount of $111,000. This overdraft facility is personally pledged by the deposit account of a director of Smartime.

F-23

 
BANK LINE OF CREDIT (2005): As of December 31, 2005, the Company utilized $1,060,000 of the banking facility including $945,000 from Epro and $112,000 from Smartime, and the differences of the exchange rate of $3,000. Epro has an overdraft banking facility with certain major financial institutions in the aggregate amount of $1,218,000, which is secured by a pledge of its fixed deposits of $163,000, pursuant to the following terms: interest will be charged at the Hong Kong Prime Rate per annum and payable at the end of each calendar month or the date of settlement, whichever is earlier. For Smartime, there is no due date payment stipulated by Hong Kong Hang Seng Bank because its overdraft banking facility was borrowed directly from one of its directors personal fixed deposit account as a mortgage. The detailed payment period is based on its funding condition.
 
CONTINGENT CONSIDERATION: Warrants have not been included as part of the acquisition price of various S&P Agreements (Note 2) and are no longer considered as part of the purchase consideration due to (i) the ambiguity of the S&P Agreements with respect to the issuance of the warrants and (ii) the lack of actual instruments to transfer the warrants, such as a warrant agreement that is signed and sealed by the Company and property registered at the Company Registrar of securities in Hong Kong, and accordingly, there is no irrevocable obligation by the Company to issue the warrants. Furthermore, the net income milestones were not achieved as required under the S&P Agreements according to Hong Kong law. Based on the opinion of the Company's legal counsel in Hong Kong, the Company does not have an irrevocable obligation to issue the warrants and therefore the warrants are not considered issued and outstanding. The offer to issue the warrants is no longer part of the purchase price in the S&P Agreements due to the failure by the Sellers to satisfy their warranties in the S&P Agreements. Accordingly, the warrants have not been valued.

United States of America 
 
As of December 31, 2006, the Company’s subsidiary in the United States of America had approximately $4,555,000 in net operating loss carry forwards available to offset future taxable income. Federal net operating losses can generally be carried forward 20 years.

China
 
Pursuant to the PRC Income Tax Laws, the Company’s subsidiaries and VIEs are generally subject to Enterprise Income Taxes (“EIT”) at a statutory rate of 33%, which comprises 30% national income tax and 3% local income tax. Some of these subsidiaries and VIEs are qualified new technology enterprises and under PRC Income Tax Laws, they are subject to preferential tax rates. Additionally, as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company had accumulated net operating loss carry forwards for Chinese tax purposes of approximately $0 and $447,000, respectively. Realization of the Chinese tax net operating loss carry forwards is dependent on future profitable operations, as well as a maximum five-year carry forward period. Accordingly, management has recorded a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax associated with the net operating loss carry forwards to zero.

On March 28, 2007, the High Court of HKSAR had adjudged that the three defendants should pay us the Debt Sum together with interest sum at the rate of 6% per annum from  May 15, 2005 to  March 28, 2007, and additional interest charged at the rate of 5% per annum for the Debt Sum and accrued interest within 90 days overdue and thereafter at the judgment rate until payment and fixed costs of HK$3,405.
 
2. Lawsuit between PacificNet Power Limited and Johnson Controls Hong Kong Limited (JCHKL), a subsidiary of Johnson Controls Inc.  (NYSE:JCI) (www.jci.com )
 
On January 19, 2007, Johnson Controls Hong Kong Limited filed a claim against PacificNet Power Limited (a 51% owned subsidiary of PacificNet) in the High Court of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region seeking HK$4,800,000 as payment for services rendered to replace 3 sets of trane water-cooled chillers, together with energy saving performance (the "Chiller System"), at the Fortress Tower in Hong Kong. 
 
In connection with the claim, PacificNet Power reviewed a letter from its client, China Weal Property Management Ltd., dated January 22, 2007 stating that the construction work by JCHKL had not been completed as of the date of the letter, and that certain violations itemized in a  letter issued by the Hong Kong Environment Protection Department  (EPD) (Noise Abatement Notice No. N806030) addressed to JCHKL with respect to acoustic problems with JCHKL’s equipment had not been abated.  Further, JCHKL was to pay penalties between HK$100,000 and HK$200,000 assessed by the JCHKL for failing to fix the noise problem on the roof of Fortress Tower.
 
The board of directors of PacificNet Power Limited has reviewed the case with its client, China Weal Property Management Ltd., and our Hong Kong legal counsel and it is our belief that the project work undertaken JCHKL is defective in numerous aspects, as evidenced by the letter from government letter issued by EPD.  As a result, we believe the construction work was not been completed by JCHKL, and therefore, JCHKL is not entitled to payment for its services.
 
On February 7, 2007, we instructed our Hong Kong legal counsel to issue a Defense and Counterclaim to JCHKL to counter-claim that ( i) JCHKL's construction work has not complied with the applicable rules and regulations of various government authorities in Hong Kong; (ii) the Chiller System provided by JCHKL was defective and merchantable unfit and JCHKL has failed and/or refused to rectify such defective works; and (iii) JCHKL shall return the work deposit in the amount of  HK$1,500,000 to PacificNet Power Limited and shall compensate and keep PacificNet Power Limited indemnified against all the loss and damages suffered as a result of any claims from the China Weal Property Management Ltd, the employer and the potential tenants of Fortress Tower.
 
The case is under review by Hong Kong High Court and we have not received any judgment from the High Court of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region as of date of this report. We are currently proceeding with discovery and counter-claims, and we intend to vigorously defend ourselves against the allegations. We are unable to predict the outcome of these actions, or a reasonable estimate of the range of possible loss, if any.

18. Restatement

On March 19, 2007 our predecessor auditor withdrew their opinion on our previously filed financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 due to uncertainties around certain option grants during the said period. An independent investigation in this connection has been commissioned by our Audit Committee to address this matter.

In its May 3, 2007 Report, the Audit Committee concluded that, “…the Audit Committee did indeed find that, although the number and terms of option grants were being fixed by the Compensation Committee who deferred to the Board merely for a secondary review approval; whereby the Board of Directors still maintained the authority to cancel a prerequisite grant consummated by the Compensation Committee, therefore that Grant could likely be interpreted only as final at the date of approval of the company’s Board of Directors. Hence, with this approach which seems to be more aligned with the SEC interpretation, financial restatement would be required to account for the granting of options that were “in the money” due to procedural administrative delay and the difference in the Compensation Committee grant date and the Board of Directors approval date. Accordingly, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors of Pacificnet, Inc. to charge additional stock based compensation expense to the company’s financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003, 2004 and 2005 respectively...”

Based on the Audit Committee Recommendations, extra stock-based compensation charges of approximately $0.3 million, $1.2 million and $0.1 million are charged to each of the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively, Also, for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, approximately $2.4 million and $0.2 million have been reclassified from Selling, General & Administrative expenses to Discontinued Operations for financial statement presentation purposes. Following are the effects of the restatement:
