PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

The items in the following summary are described in more detail later in this prospectus.  This summary provides an overview of selected information and does not contain all of the information you should consider.  Therefore, you should also read the more detailed information set out in this prospectus, including the financial statements, the notes thereto and matters set forth under “Risk Factors.”


The Company


We are a leading China-based float glass manufacturer.  Our product offerings include float glass, ultra-clear glass (also called crystal glass), colored float glass and high grade, glass processed products such as mirrors, glass artwork, tempered glass, insulated glass, laminated glass, lacquered glass and similar products.  We have been manufacturing our glass products from our production facility in Fuxin City, Liaoning Province, China since 2002 and sell our products to end users in China, Asia, Europe, South America and South Africa.  As of June 30, 2008, we believe we ranked second in the Northeast China glass market based on production capacity.


We design, develop, manufacture and market our products for use in a variety of end products, including automobiles, commercial and residential buildings, construction materials, furniture and display cases, lighting fixtures and decorative glass artwork, bath fixtures and electrical household appliances, such as refrigerators and microwave ovens.  We sell our products to automakers and auto parts suppliers, building contractors and building material suppliers and manufacturers of retail goods, both directly and through a broad distributor network.  Our major customers include Anshan Xingsheng Glass Distribution Office, Fuxin Economic and Technological Development Zone Guangyao Materials Center, Guangzhou Jingyao Glass Co., Ltd., Jilin Hongda Industrial Co., Ltd., Hengrui Wooden Cases Factory, Fuxin Laixi Commerce and Trade Co., Ltd. and Fujian Chengda Glass Trade Co., Ltd.


Our glass and glass products are manufactured in a broad range of colors and specifications which are usually measured by thickness and width and range between 2-23 millimeters in thickness and 3,300 millimeters in width.  Our glass products are marketed primarily under the “Golden Elephant” brand name. Our total annual production capacity of our glass products is currently 4.95 million weight cases and we maintain two production lines which have an aggregate daily melting capacity of over 800 tons.


Due to our focus on research and development and use of technologically advanced production methods and our utilization of cost efficient raw materials, we have become a low cost provider of high quality products.  Our glass products have been given a GB 11615-199 certification by the Chinese National Quality Standards for glass products and passed the annual inspections conducted by Chinese National Glass Inspection Committee since 2004. Our products also have been certified by ISO 9001-2000, a Chinese Quality System and ESC certification, a European Quality Certification for construction products, with the valid term from March 24, 2007 to March 24, 2010.  We transport our products by train, sea and expressway.


We were a shell company until March 31, 2008 when we completed the reverse acquisition transaction of Dollar Come under which we issued to the shareholders of Dollar Come an aggregate of 23,751,710 shares of our common stock, in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Dollar Come. Dollar Come thereby became our wholly owned subsidiary.


Our sales revenue increased from $24.58 million in 2005 to $48.13 million in 2007 and our net income increased from $457,798 in 2005 to $6.86 million in 2007.


Our Industry


According to a 2007 report issued by Pilkington Group, or the Pilkington Report, the global market for flat glass was approximately 44 million tons in 2006.  Demand for high quality float glass was approximately 26 million tons, demand for sheet glass was 3 million tons, demand for rolled glass was 2 million tons and the remaining 13 million tons represented demand for lower quality float glass.  Approximately 70% of this tonnage is used in the construction industry, 10% is used in the automotive industry and 20% is used in furniture and other interior applications.

Over the past 20 years, glass demand has grown more quickly than GDP. Over the long term, glass demand is growing at just over 4% annually with the strongest gains in fast developing regions such as greater Asia, especially China. Much of this growth is expected to be driven by the construction and automotive industries and also by legislation and regulations concerning safety, noise reduction and the response to the growing need for energy conservation.

The Pilkington Report stated that China’s importance as a producer and consumer of glass and glass products has been swiftly growing since the 1990s as its economy has opened and become more developed and vibrant.  China currently accounts for over 33% of the world glass demand, up from approximately 20% just a decade ago.

We believe that glass industry will be vastly improved in the near future based on favorable macro-economic factors and continuous improvements of policies and legal regulations affecting our industry. According to a December 2006 report entitled “Promoting the Regulation of Flat Glass Industry Structure” issued by the National Development and Reform Commission, a reduction of manufacturing overcapacity, price stabilization during the second half of 2006 and a decline in raw material prices point towards recovery in the glass industry.

Overall, in the next five years, the glass industry is expected to experience increased demand for glass and glass products primarily as a result of growth in China’s overall gross domestic product, or GDP, the global trend of moving manufacturing operations from high-cost areas to lower cost areas, such as China, and development of a global marketplace.

Our Competitive Strengths


We believe that the following strengths enable us to compete effectively in and to capitalize on growth of the glass industry in China:


Leading market position.    As of June 30, 2008, we believe we ranked second in Northeast China in the glass market in terms of production capacity.


Possession of developed industrial technologies.    We believe that we are the first China-based manufacturer capable of producing ultra-clear glass using self-developed technologies. We also have exclusive license to produce and use synthetic fuel oil called 520 Fuel Serum, which can be used as a substitute for heavy fuel oil.


Highly experienced and incentivised research and development team.  We have a R&D department composed of 32 engineers with years of experiences.  We are committed in developing new products, we generally launch a new product every 6 months.


Capacity to produce a broad product mix.  We have production lines for daily melting capacity for 500 tons of high quality float glass and 300 tons of high quality, ultra-clear and colored float glass.  We also have processing line for mirrors and processing equipment for other glass products such as insulating glass, tempered glass and laminated glass.


Low cost, high quality products.  We focus on manufacturing and selling high quality glass at competitive prices.  We believe we have price advantage over most of our competitors.

  

Long-term relationships.  Approximately 90% of our products are sold through a broad network of distributors with which we have had long standing relationships.


Our Growth Strategy


We are committed to enhancing our sales, profitability and cash flows through the following strategies:


Leverage strength of specialty product lines.   We believe that the market for ultra-clear float glass will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 24% through 2010 based on estimated growth rates for lighting products, showcases, decorative crystal artwork, bath fixtures, household appliances, decorative building materials and solar panels.  We intend to leverage our capabilities in producing specialty float glass and capitalize on the expected demand from manufacturers of these end products.

2
 


Minimize adverse fluctuations in raw material costs.    We intend to control our raw material costs by developing in-house capabilities for sourcing key raw materials and by establishing long-term commitments with suppliers for future expected raw material requirements.


Increase production and glass processing capacity.    We intend to expand our production and glass processing capacity by increasing and enhancing our production lines and equipment and by expanding our product mix.


Strengthen our research and development capabilities.    We plan to invest in personnel, technology and equipment to further improve our research and development capabilities. We expect that this investment will contribute to our ability to further control our production costs and develop new high quality products.


Capitalize on positive reputation and expertise.    We hope to continue new product development while leveraging our strong customer relationships as a means of cross-selling our new products. We also plan to apply our existing technical and manufacturing expertise to develop innovative new product lines.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information included in this Prospectus, before making an investment decision. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could suffer. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

 

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

 

Our business will be harmed if the glass industry in China, which has experienced oversupply problems for several years, does not realize an increase in demand at the pace we expect.

 

Historically, the glass industry has been characterized by wide fluctuations in the demand for, and supply of, glass and glass products.  As recently as 2005 and 2006, these fluctuations have resulted in the glass supply, especially supply of low cost and low quality glass, greatly outpacing demand for these products negatively influencing the high quality flat glass market. Within the past two years, more than 300 flat glass production enterprises have commenced business. Most of the newly established glass production enterprises are smaller businesses using outdated technologies to produce low quality flat glass.  Currently, the demand for high quality float glass is considerable and over 60 new float glass production lines have become operable in China, producing float glass with higher quality, consequently supplanting the demand imported high quality float glass. The demand for high quality float products is increasing and China is starting to regulate low quality glass production factories thereby creating a more favorable competitive environment. Therefore, we believe that the glass industry is demonstrating signs of recovery.  Nevertheless, any prolonged oversupply of glass could result in severe downward pricing pressure on glass manufacturers and impair our profitability.

 

Our revenue will decrease if the construction and building materials, automotive or electrical household appliance industries experience a downturn.

 

Our glass and glass products serve as key components in construction and building materials, automobiles and electrical household products.  Therefore, we are subject to the general changes in economic conditions affecting these segments of the economy.  Demand for the products using our glass and, consequently, demand for our glass products is typically affected by a number of economic factors, including, but not limited to,  consumer interest rates, consumer confidence, retail trends, construction of commercial and residential building, and the level of mortgage financing.  If there is a decline in economic activity in China and the other markets in which we operate or a decrease of sales of construction materials, automobiles or electrical household appliances, demand for our glass and glass products will decline and our revenue will decrease.  

 

The glass manufacturing industry is particularly sensitive to negative macroeconomic conditions which could pose complications for our business and harm our profitability. 

 

Like other suppliers of raw materials, glass manufacturers are particularly dependent on general economic conditions, performance in other industry segments, labor costs, import duties and tariffs, competition and currency exchange rates.  These macroeconomic factors have historically resulted in wide fluctuations in the glass manufacturing industry both in China and globally.  In our case, future economic downturns, stagnant economies or currency fluctuations, in China or globally, could decrease the demand for glass or glass products or increase the amount of imports of glass and glass products into China.   Our sales, margins and profitability will be harmed under such circumstances.  In addition, the glass manufacturing industry is highly reliant upon energy generally and heavy oil in particular, which is the core fuel used in the production of flat glass.  With the price of heavy oil escalating worldwide, our manufacturing costs likewise rise thereby jeopardizing our profitability and financial performance.

 

Approximately 62.7% of our sales revenues were derived from our ten largest customers in 2007 and any reduction in revenues from any of these customers would reduce our revenues and net income.

 

While we have over 50 active distributors and customers, approximately 67.2% of our sales revenue in 2007 came from our top ten customers, with Anshan Xingsheng Glass Distribution Office and Fuxin Economic and Technological Development Zone Guangyao Materials Center alone accounting for approximately 39% of our sales revenue in 2006 and 23.3% in 2007.  While we are working on expanding our customer base to reduce our reliance on any single customer, if we cease to do business at or above current levels with Anshan Xingsheng Glass Distribution Office and Fuxin Economic and Technological Development Zone Guangyao Materials Center or with any other large distributors or customers which contribute significantly to our sales revenues, and we are unable to generate additional or substitute sales revenue, our net income would decline considerably.  

 

7

 


 

Our business is seasonal and if we fall significantly short of our anticipated earnings the first and fourth quarters, it will significantly decrease the working capital available to us which may  adversely  affect our purchasing abilities.  

 

Our business is seasonal, with most of our sales and operating income being generated in the second and third quarters of each year, lesser amounts in the first and fourth quarters of each year.  Our working capital requirements fluctuate during the year with increased working capital demands and constraints during the first and fourth quarters as a result of this seasonality. If we fall significantly short of our anticipated earnings in either the first or fourth quarters, it will decrease the working capital available to us in such quarters.  Due to limitations on borrowing levels, a decrease in working capital may adversely affect our purchasing abilities which would have a material adverse effect on our revenues.

 

Leased properties and production lines may be terminated due to unexpected reasons.

 

One of our major production lines with the melting capacity of 300 tons and certain properties were leased from a third party. If the leasor terminates the lease or if there is other interruptions for the lease, it may adversely affect our production.

 

Our strategy focuses on the development and sale of specialty glass products so our financial results will be negatively  affected if we cannot timely develop these products or incorrectly gauge the potential market for them.

 

We believe that the demand for specialty glass products is presently growing at a faster pace than demand for common float glass.  Accordingly, our future research and development initiatives and manufacturing efforts will be focused on expanding our product offerings in the specialty glass product segments.  We may not be able to develop these products in time to meet market demand and our sales revenue may not grow at expected rates in these new product lines.  We also may incur expenses relating to the development of new products that are not offset by sufficient sales revenue generated by new specialty glass product lines.

 

Competition in the glass manufacturing industry in China and elsewhere is intense.

 

We compete with approximately 300 small-sized, local Chinese glass manufacturers. The number of these small companies varies from time to time. While we may have greater resources than our smaller competitors, it is possible that these competitors have better access in certain local markets to customers and prospects and lower production and raw material costs.  Our major international competitors are NSG/Pilkington Group Limited, Saint-Gobain, Asahi and Guardian, manufacture nearly 70% of the glass produced in the world and have more resources and greater brand recognition than we enjoy.  While our resources may not be as great as our larger competitors, we believe our product quality and sales and distribution network are superior in China and in the global mid- and lower quality glass markets.  If our competitors are able to gain greater market share or improve their sales efforts, our sales may decrease, we may be forced to lower our prices, or our marketing costs may increase, all of which could negatively impact our financial results.

 

Any decrease in the availability, or increase in the cost, of raw materials could materially affect our earnings.

 

Our glass manufacturing operations depend heavily on the availability of various raw materials and energy resources.  The mix of raw materials used in the production of flat glass, which is known as the batch, is mainly composed of three components: silica sand, soda ash, dolomite/limestone, and mirabilite which represent 99% of all raw materials used in the production of glass.  Silica sand is the main component constituting about 72% of the batch weight and soda ash represents about 16% of the batch weight, but is one of the most expensive raw materials used accounting for approximately 60% of the batch cost.  The fuel costs in our manufacturing operations, particularly heavy oil and electricity, account for over 40% of total manufacturing costs.   The availability of raw materials and energy resources may decrease and their prices may fluctuate greatly.  We have long-term relationships with several suppliers; however, if our suppliers are unable or unwilling to provide us with raw materials on terms favorable to us, we may be unable to produce certain products.  This could result in a decrease in profit and damage to our reputation in our industry.  In the event our raw material and energy costs increase, we may not be able to pass these higher costs on to our customers in full or at all.  Any increase in the prices for raw materials or energy resources could materially increase our costs and therefore lower our earnings.  Additionally, certain of our supply contracts are for fixed prices.  Although we currently benefit from favorable pricing in some of these supply contracts, if market prices for these raw materials decline, we may not be able to take advantage of decreasing market prices, and our profit margins may suffer.

Our rapid expansion could significantly strain our resources, management and operational infrastructure which could impair our ability to meet increased demand for our products and hurt our business results.

 

To accommodate our anticipated growth, we will need to expend capital resources and dedicate personnel to implement and upgrade our accounting, operational and internal management systems and enhance our record keeping and contract tracking system. Such measures will require us to dedicate additional financial resources and personnel to optimize our operational infrastructure and to recruit more personnel to train and manage our growing employee base.  If we cannot successfully implement these measures efficiently and cost-effectively, we will be unable to satisfy the demand for our products, which will impair our revenue growth and hurt our overall financial performance.

 

Our business is capital intensive and our growth strategy may require additional capital which may not be available on favorable terms or at all.

 

A float glass for about 500-ton melting capacity facility is highly capital intensive, typically costing between $40 million to $90 million depending on size, location and product complexity.  Once operational, it is designed to operate continuously, 365 days per year, throughout an 8 to 10 years initial operating life.  Float lines are normally capable of several campaigns after the initial operating life following major repair and upgrade programs.  We believe that our current cash, cash flow from operations and the proceeds from bank loans will be sufficient to meet our present and reasonably anticipated capital and capital expenditure needs given the current state of our production lines for the marketing of the products.  We may, however, require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions, implementation of our strategy to expand our specialty float glass manufacturing capacity or other investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue.  If our own financial resources are insufficient to satisfy our capital requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain additional credit facilities.  The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders.  The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations.  Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.  Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, could limit our ability to expand our business operations and could harm our overall business prospects.

 

We depend heavily on key personnel, and turnover of key employees and senior management could harm our business.

 

Our future business and results of operations depend in significant part upon the continued contributions of our key technical and senior management personnel, including Lihui Song, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and Qiang Hao, our Chief Financial Officer.  They also depend in significant part upon our ability to attract and retain additional qualified management, technical, marketing and sales and support personnel for our operations.  If we lose a key employee, if a key employee fails to perform in his or her current position, or if we are not able to attract and retain skilled employees as needed, our business could suffer.  Significant turnover in our senior management could significantly deplete our institutional knowledge held by our existing senior management team.  We depend on the skills and abilities of these key employees in managing the manufacturing, technical, marketing and sales aspects of our business, any part of which could be harmed by turnover in the future.

We face risks associated with future investments or acquisitions.

 

An important element of our growth strategy is to invest in or acquire businesses that will enable us, among other things, to expand the products we offer to our existing target customer base, lower our costs for raw materials and components and capitalize on opportunities to expand into new markets.  In the future, we may be unable to identify other suitable investment or acquisition candidates or may be unable to make these investments or acquisitions on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.

 

If we complete an investment or acquisition, we may not realize the anticipated benefits from the transaction. Integrating an acquired business is distracting and time consuming, as well as a potentially expensive process.  The successful integration of these companies and any other acquired businesses require us to:

 

integrate and retain key management, sales, research and development, production and other personnel;

incorporate the acquired products or capabilities into our offerings from an engineering, sales and marketing perspective;

coordinate research and development efforts; integrate and support pre-existing supplier, distribution and customer relationships; and

consolidate duplicate facilities and functions and combine back office accounting, order processing and support functions.

 

Geographic distance between business operations, the compatibility of the technologies and operations being integrated and the disparate corporate cultures being combined also present significant challenges. Acquired businesses are likely to have different standards, controls, contracts, procedures and policies, making it more difficult to implement and harmonize company-wide financial, accounting, billing, information and other systems. Our focus on integrating operations may also distract attention from our day-to-day business and may disrupt key research and development, marketing or sales efforts. If we cannot overcome these challenges, we may not realize actual benefits from past and future acquisitions, which will impair our overall business results.

 

Our acquisition strategy also depends on our ability to obtain necessary government approvals, as described under “—Risks Related to Doing Business in China— The M&A Rule establishes more complex procedures for some acquisitions of Chinese companies by foreign investors, which could make it more difficult for us to pursue growth through acquisitions in China.”

 

Unexpected equipment failures may damage our business due to production curtailments or shutdowns.

 

Our glass production lines are extremely specialized and depend on critical pieces of equipment, such as melting furnaces, float baths, cooling lehrs and cross cutters.  We conduct periodic inspection and maintenance of all of our equipment to minimize the impact of interruption of production and prevent breakdown because this machinery is highly specialized and cannot be repaired or replaced without significant expense and time delay.  On occasion, our equipment may be out of service as a result of unanticipated failures which may result in material plant shutdowns or periods of reduced production.  Interruptions in production capabilities will inevitably increase production costs and reduce our sales and earnings. In addition to equipment failures, our facilities are also subject to the risk of catastrophic loss due to unanticipated events such as fires, explosions or adverse weather conditions.  Furthermore, any interruption in production capability may require us to make large capital expenditures to remedy the situation, which could have a negative effect on our profitability and cash flows.  Although we have business interruption insurance, we cannot provide any assurance that the insurance will cover all losses that we experience as a result of the equipment failures.  In addition, longer-term business disruption could result in a loss of customers.  If this were to occur, our future sales levels, and therefore our profitability, could be adversely affected.

Exporting our glass products  outside of China is a core component of our overall growth strategy, which could subject us to various economic, political, regulatory, legal and foreign exchange risks.

 

We currently sell most of our glass in China, but have also exported our float glass products to Asia, Europe, South America and South Africa.  Our overseas sales accounted for 16.88% of our total sales in 2006 and 5.6% in 2007.  We plan to selectively enter international markets in which an opportunity to sell our products has been identified. The marketing, distribution and sale of our products overseas expose us to a number of risks, including:

 

fluctuations in currency exchange rates;

difficulty in designing products that are compatible with product standards in foreign countries;

greater difficulty in accounts receivable collection;

increased marketing and sales costs;

difficulty and costs of compliance with foreign regulatory requirements and different commercial and legal requirements;

an inability to obtain, maintain or enforce intellectual property rights in foreign countries;

changes to import and export regulations, including quotas, tariffs and other trade barriers;

delays or difficulties in obtaining export and import licenses;

repatriation controls on foreign earnings and currency conversion restrictions; and

difficulty in engaging and retaining distributors and agents who are knowledgeable about, and can function effectively in, overseas markets.

 

If we cannot effectively manage these risks, our ability to conduct or expand our business abroad would be impaired, which may in turn hamper our business, financial condition and prospects.

 

Our failure to adequately protect our intellectual property rights may undermine our competitive position, and litigation to protect our intellectual property rights may be costly.

 

We strive to strengthen and differentiate our product portfolio by developing new and efficient manufacturing processes and innovative products and product improvements. We have one invention patent for the combustion method of synthetic petroleum for synfuel made from refinery coke and anthracite.  Our former subsidiary Fuxin Hengrui Tianyuan New Energy Sources Co., Ltd., or Fuxin Tianyuan, has granted us an exclusive license to use two utility model patents and three technologies as to which Fuxin Tianyuan has submitted invention patent application with the PRC Patent Office. Under the exclusive license agreement with Fuxin Tianyuan, we received the exclusive license for no consideration and our rights to use such exclusive license expire on the earlier of the expiration date of such patents or the date when Fuxin Tianyuan loses its proprietary rights to the patents for reasons other than the expiration of the patents. Our rights under the exclusive license agreement will not be affected if Fuxin Tianyuan assigns its patents to any third party. Fuxin Tianyuan will indemnify us if its patents infringe the rights of any third party.  We believe that the protection of our intellectual property will become increasingly important to our business.  Implementation and enforcement of intellectual property-related laws in China has historically been lacking due primarily to ambiguities in PRC intellectual property law. Accordingly, protection of intellectual property and proprietary rights in China may not be as effective as in the United States or other countries.  We will continue to rely on a combination of patents, trade secrets, trademarks and copyrights to provide protection in this regard, but this protection may be inadequate. For example, our pending or future patent applications may not be approved or, if allowed, they may not be of sufficient strength or scope. As a result, third parties may use the technologies and proprietary processes that we have developed and compete with us, which could negatively affect any competitive advantage we enjoy, dilute our brand and harm our operating results.

 

In addition, policing the unauthorized use of our proprietary technology can be difficult and expensive. Litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights and given the relative unpredictability of China’s legal system and potential difficulties enforcing a court judgment in China, there is no guarantee litigation would result in an outcome favorable to us. Furthermore, any such litigation may be costly and may divert management attention away from our core business. An adverse determination in any lawsuit involving our intellectual property is likely to jeopardize our business prospects and reputation. We have no insurance coverage against litigation costs so we would be forced to bear all litigation costs if we cannot recover them from other parties. All of the foregoing factors could harm our business and financial condition.

Any disruption in the supply chain of raw materials and our products could adversely impact our ability to produce and deliver products.

 

As a manufacturing company, we face serious challenges in supply chain management for raw materials and delivery of our products.  Supply chain fragmentation and local protectionism within China further complicates supply chain disruption risks. Local administrative bodies and physical infrastructure built to protect local interests pose transportation challenges for raw material transportation as well as product delivery.  In addition, profitability and volume could be negatively impacted by limitations inherent within the supply chain, including competitive, governmental, legal, natural disasters, and other events that could impact both supply and price.  Any of these occurrences could cause significant disruptions to our supply chain, manufacturing capability and distribution system that could adversely impact our ability to produce and deliver products.

 

If our customers and/or the ultimate consumers of products that use our glass or glass products successfully assert product liability claims against us due to defects in our products, our operating results may suffer and our reputation may be harmed.

 

Our glass and glass products are widely applied in the manufacturing of many products, including automobiles, construction materials, furniture and display cases, electrical household appliances, lighting fixtures and decorative glass artwork.  Significant property damage, personal injuries and even death can result from malfunctioning products.  If our glass is not properly manufactured or installed and/or if people are injured as a result of our products, we could be subject to claims for damages based on theories of product liability and other legal theories in some jurisdictions in which our products are sold.  The costs and resources to defend such claims could be substantial and, if such claims are successful, we could be responsible for paying some or all of the damages.  We do not have product liability insurance.  The publicity surrounding these sorts of claims is also likely to damage our reputation, regardless of whether such claims are successful.  Any of these consequences resulting from defects in our products would hurt our operating results and stockholder value.

 

Our products may become subject to recall in the event of defects or other performance related issues.

 

Since we furnish our glass and glass products to participants in the automotive industry, we are at risk for product recall costs which are costs incurred when, either voluntarily or involuntarily, a product is recalled through a formal campaign to solicit the return of specific products due to a known or suspected performance defect.  Costs typically include the cost of the product, part or component being replaced, the cost of the recall borne by our customers and labor to remove and replace the defective part or component. Our glass and glass products have not been the subject of an open recall.  If a recall decision is made, we will need to estimate the cost of the recall and record a charge to earnings in that period. In making this estimate, judgment is required as to the quantity or volume to be recalled, the total cost of the recall campaign, the ultimate negotiated sharing of the cost between us and our distributor or customer.  As a result, these estimates are subject to change. Excessive recall costs or our failure to adequately estimate these costs may negatively affect our operating results.

 

Certain of our existing stockholders have substantial influence over our company, and their interests may not be aligned with the interests of our other stockholders.

 

Ms. Lin Tan is the indirect, beneficial owner of approximately 54.5% of our common stock.  As a result, she has significant influence over our business, including decisions regarding mergers, consolidations and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, election of directors and other significant corporate actions. This concentration of ownership may also have the effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing a future change of control, which could deprive our stockholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their shares as part of a sale of our company and might reduce the price of our shares.

Environmental claims or failure to comply with any present or future environmental regulations may require us to spend additional funds and may harm our results of operations.

 

In recent years, the glass industry has become more heavily regulated, particularly from an environmental perspective due to the use of heavy oil in the production process.  In addition, our business is subject to health and safety laws and regulations that affect our operations, facilities and products in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. We believe that we are in compliance with all material environmental, health and safety laws and regulations related to our products, operations and business activities. Although we have not suffered material environmental claims in the past, the failure to comply with any present or future regulations could result in the assessment of damages or imposition of fines against us, suspension of production, cessation of our operations or even criminal sanctions.  New regulations could also require us to acquire costly equipment or to incur other significant expenses. Our failure to control the use of, or adequately restrict the discharge of, hazardous substances could subject us to potentially significant monetary damages and fines or suspension of our business operations, which could cause damage to our business.   We have applied to the PRC authorities for an environmental approval certificate.  If we fail to obtain that certificate in a timely manner or at all, our business will be harmed.

 

We have limited insurance coverage and do not carry any business interruption insurance, third-party liability insurance for our manufacturing facilities or insurance that covers the risk of loss of our products in shipment.

 

Operation of our glass manufacturing facilities involves many risks, including equipment failures, natural disasters, industrial accidents, power outages, labor disturbances and other business interruptions. Furthermore, if any of our products are faulty, then we may become subject to product liability claims or we may have to engage in a product recall. We do not carry any business interruption insurance, product recall or third-party liability insurance for our manufacturing facilities or with respect to our products to cover claims pertaining to personal injury or property or environmental damage arising from defaults with our products, product recalls, accidents on our property or damage relating to our operations.  Therefore, our existing insurance coverage may not be sufficient to cover all risks associated with our business.  As a result, we may be required to pay for financial and other losses, damages and liabilities, including those caused by natural disasters and other events beyond our control, out of our own funds, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We do not have any independent directors and there is no assurance that any independent directors will be appointed or what their qualifications may be if they are appointed.

 

Mr. Lihui Song, our Chief Executive Officer is our sole director and we currently do not have any independent directors.  In the future, we may appoint a number of independent directors which will constitute a majority of our board of directors before our common stock is listed on a national securities exchange or NASDAQ, but we may not be able to identify independent directors qualified to be on our board.

 

We may be exposed to potential risks relating to our internal controls over financial reporting and our ability to have those controls attested to by our independent auditors.

 

As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or SOX 404, the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, adopted rules requiring public companies to include a report of management on the company’s internal controls over financial reporting in their annual reports, including Form 10-K.  In addition, the independent registered public accounting firm auditing a company’s financial statements must also attest to and report on the operating effectiveness of the company’s internal controls. We can provide no assurance that we will comply with all of the requirements imposed thereby.  There can be no assurance that we will receive a positive attestation from our independent auditors.  In the event we identify significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal controls that we cannot remediate in a timely manner or we are unable to receive a positive attestation from our independent auditors with respect to our internal controls, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements.

Our holding company structure may limit the payment of dividends.

 

We have no direct business operations, other than our ownership of our subsidiaries.  While we have no current intention of paying dividends, should we decide in the future to do so, as a holding company, our ability to pay dividends and meet other obligations depends upon the receipt of dividends or other payments from our operating subsidiaries and other holdings and investments.  In addition, our operating subsidiaries, from time to time, may be subject to restrictions on their ability to make distributions to us, including as a result of restrictive covenants in loan agreements, restrictions on the conversion of local currency into U.S. dollars or other hard currency and other regulatory restrictions as discussed below.  If future dividends are paid in RMB, fluctuations in the exchange rate for the conversion of RMB into U.S. dollars may reduce the amount received by U.S. stockholders upon conversion of the dividend payment into U.S. dollars.

 

Chinese regulations currently permit the payment of dividends only out of accumulated profits as determined in accordance with Chinese accounting standards and regulations.  Our subsidiaries in China are also required to set aside a portion of their after tax profits according to Chinese accounting standards and regulations to fund certain reserve funds.  Currently, our subsidiaries in China are the only sources of revenues or investment holdings for the payment of dividends.  If they do not accumulate sufficient profits under Chinese accounting standards and regulations to first fund certain reserve funds as required by Chinese accounting standards, we will be unable to pay any dividends.

 

RISKS RELATED TO DOING BUSINESS IN CHINA

 

Adverse changes in political and economic policies of the PRC government could impede the overall economic growth of China, which could reduce the demand for our products and damage our business.

 

We conduct substantially all of our operations and generate most of our revenue in China.   Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are affected significantly by economic, political and legal developments in China.  The PRC economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including:

 

a higher level of government involvement;

a early stage of development of the market-oriented sector of the economy;

a rapid growth rate;

a higher level of control over foreign exchange; and

the allocation of resources.

 

As the PRC economy has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy, the PRC government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. While these measures may benefit the overall PRC economy, they may also have a negative effect on us.

 

Although the PRC government has in recent years implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the PRC government continues to exercise significant control over economic growth in China through the allocation of resources, controlling the payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and imposing policies that impact particular industries or companies in different ways.

 

Any adverse change in economic conditions or government policies in China could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth in China, which in turn could lead to a reduction in demand for our services and consequently have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects.

 

Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system could limit the legal protections available to you and us.

 

We conduct substantially all of our business through our operating subsidiaries in the PRC. Our operating subsidiaries are generally subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investments in China and, in particular, laws applicable to foreign-invested enterprises. The PRC legal system is based on written statutes, and prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. Since 1979, a series of new PRC laws and regulations have significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, since the PRC legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involve uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to you and us. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.  In addition, all of our executive officers and all of our directors are residents of China and not of the United States, and substantially all the assets of these persons are located outside the United States.  As a result, it could be difficult for investors to affect service of process in the United States or to enforce a judgment obtained in the United States against our Chinese operations and subsidiaries.

 

14

 


 

If we are found to have failed to comply with applicable laws, we may incur additional expenditures or be subject to significant fines and penalties.

 

Our operations are subject to PRC laws and regulations applicable to us. However, many PRC laws and regulations are uncertain in their scope, and the implementation of such laws and regulations in different localities could have significant differences. In certain instances, local implementation rules and/or the actual implementation are not necessarily consistent with the regulations at the national level. Although we strive to comply with all the applicable PRC laws and regulations, we cannot assure you that the relevant PRC government authorities will not later determine that we have not been in compliance with certain laws or regulations.  Our failure to comply with the applicable laws and regulations in China could subject us to administrative penalties and injunctive relief, as well as civil remedies, including fines, injunctions and recalls of our products. It is possible that changes to such laws or more rigorous enforcement of such laws or with respect to our current or past practices could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Further, additional environmental or safety issues relating to matters that are not currently known to management may result in unanticipated liabilities and expenditures.

 

The PRC government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities.

The PRC government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership.  Our ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, import and export tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters.  We believe that our operations in China are in material compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements.  However, the central or local governments of the jurisdictions in which we operate may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations.

Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof and could require us to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese properties or joint ventures.

Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive and use our sales revenue effectively.

All our sales revenue and expenses are denominated in RMB. Under PRC law, the RMB is currently convertible under the “current account,” which includes dividends and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, but not under the “capital account,” which includes foreign direct investment and loans. Currently, our PRC operating subsidiary may purchase foreign currencies for settlement of current account transactions, including payments of dividends to us, without the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, the relevant PRC government authorities may limit or eliminate our ability to purchase foreign currencies in the future. Since a significant amount of our future revenue will be denominated in RMB, any existing and future restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to utilize revenue generated in RMB to fund our business activities outside China that are denominated in foreign currencies.

 

15

 


 

Foreign exchange transactions by PRC operating subsidiaries under the capital account continue to be subject to significant foreign exchange controls and require the approval of or need to register with PRC government authorities, including SAFE. In particular, if our PRC operating subsidiaries borrow foreign currency through loans from us or other foreign lenders, these loans must be registered with SAFE, and if we finance the subsidiaries by means of additional capital contributions, these capital contributions must be approved by certain government authorities, including the Ministry of Commerce, or MOFCOM, or their respective local counterparts. These limitations could affect their ability to obtain foreign exchange through debt or equity financing.

 

Fluctuations in exchange rates could adversely affect our business and the value of our securities.

The value of our common stock will be indirectly affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and RMB and between those currencies and other currencies in which our sales may be denominated. Because substantially all of our earnings and cash assets are denominated in RMB and the net proceeds from this offering will be denominated in U.S. dollars, fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the RMB will affect the relative purchasing power of these proceeds, our balance sheet and our earnings per share in U.S. dollars following this offering. In addition, appreciation or depreciation in the value of the RMB relative to the U.S. dollar would affect our financial results reported in U.S. dollar terms without giving effect to any underlying change in our business or results of operations. Fluctuations in the exchange rate will also affect the relative value of any dividend we issue after this offering that will be exchanged into U.S. dollars as well as earnings from, and the value of, any U.S. dollar-denominated investments we make in the future.

 

Since July 2005, the RMB has no longer been pegged to the U.S. dollar. Although the People’s Bank of China regularly intervenes in the foreign exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange rate, the RMB may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar in the medium to long term. Moreover, it is possible that in the future PRC authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in the RMB exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market.

 

Very limited hedging transactions are available in China to reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. To date, we have not entered into any hedging transactions. While we may enter into hedging transactions in the future, the availability and effectiveness of these transactions may be limited, and we may not be able to successfully hedge our exposure at all. In addition, our foreign currency exchange losses may be magnified by PRC exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert RMB into foreign currencies.

 

Currently, some of our raw materials and major equipment are imported.  In the event that the U.S. dollars appreciate against RMB, our costs will increase.  If we cannot pass the resulting cost increases on to our customers, our profitability and operating results will suffer.  In addition, since our sales to international customers are growing rapidly, we are increasingly subject to the risk of foreign currency depreciation.

Restrictions under PRC law on our PRC subsidiaries’ ability to make dividends and other distributions could materially and adversely affect our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could benefit our business, pay dividends to you, and otherwise fund and conduct our businesses.

 

Substantially all of our revenues are earned by our PRC subsidiaries. However, PRC regulations restrict the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to make dividends and other payments to their offshore parent company. PRC legal restrictions permit payments of dividend by our PRC subsidiaries only out of their accumulated after-tax profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. Each of our PRC subsidiaries is also required under PRC laws and regulations to allocate at least 10% of our annual after-tax profits determined in accordance with PRC GAAP to a statutory general reserve fund until the amounts in said fund reaches 50% of our registered capital. Allocations to these statutory reserve funds can only be used for specific purposes and are not transferable to us in the form of loans, advances or cash dividends. Any limitations on the ability of our PRC subsidiaries to transfer funds to us could materially and adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our business, pay dividends and otherwise fund and conduct our business.

Under the New EIT Law, we may be classified as a “resident enterprise” of China. Such classification will likely result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC stockholders.

China passed a new Enterprise Income Tax Law, or the New EIT Law, and its implementing rules, both of which became effective on January 1, 2008. Under the New EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with “de facto management bodies” within China is considered a “resident enterprise,” meaning that it can be treated in a manner similar to a Chinese enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes. The implementing rules of the New EIT Law define de facto management as “substantial and overall management and control over the production and operations, personnel, accounting, and properties” of the enterprise. Because the New EIT Law and its implementing rules are new, no official interpretation or application of this new “resident enterprise” classification is available. Therefore, it is unclear how tax authorities will determine tax residency based on the facts of each case.

 

If the PRC tax authorities determine that Golden Elephant Glass Technology, Inc. is a “resident enterprise” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, a number of unfavorable PRC tax consequences could follow. First, we may be subject to the enterprise income tax at a rate of 25% on our worldwide taxable income as well as PRC enterprise income tax reporting obligations. In our case, this would mean that income such as interest on offering proceeds and non-China source income would be subject to PRC enterprise income tax at a rate of 25%. Second, although under the New EIT Law and its implementing rules dividends paid to us from our PRC subsidiaries would qualify as “tax-exempt income,” we cannot guarantee that such dividends will not be subject to a 10% withholding tax, as the PRC foreign exchange control authorities, which enforce the withholding tax, have not yet issued guidance with respect to the processing of outbound remittances to entities that are treated as resident enterprises for PRC enterprise income tax purposes. Finally, it is possible that future guidance issued with respect to the new “resident enterprise” classification could result in a situation in which a 10% withholding tax is imposed on dividends we pay to our non-PRC stockholders and with respect to gains derived by our non-PRC stockholders from transferring our shares. We are actively monitoring the possibility of “resident enterprise” treatment for the 2008 tax year and are evaluating appropriate organizational changes to avoid this treatment, to the extent possible.

 

If we were treated as a “resident enterprise” by PRC tax authorities, we would be subject to taxation in both the U.S. and China, and our PRC tax may not be creditable against our U.S. tax.

 

If the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or CSRC, or another PRC regulatory agency determines that CSRC approval is required in connection with the reverse acquisition of Dollar Come, the reverse acquisition may be cancelled, or we may become subject to penalties.

 

On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the CSRC, promulgated the Provisions Regarding Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors, or the M&A Rule, which became effective on September 8, 2006. The M&A Rule, among other things, requires that an offshore company controlled by PRC companies or individuals that have acquired a PRC domestic company for the purpose of listing the PRC domestic company’s equity interest on an overseas stock exchange must obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of such offshore company’s securities on an overseas stock exchange. On September 21, 2006, the CSRC, pursuant to the M&A Rule, published on its official web site procedures specifying documents and materials required to be submitted to it by offshore companies seeking CSRC approval of their overseas listings.

 

In the opinion of our PRC counsel, Guangdong Hanyu Law Firm, the M&A Rule does not apply to our reverse acquisition of Dollar Come completed on March 31, 2008. However, if the CSRC or another PRC governmental agency subsequently determines that we should have obtained CSRC approval for such reverse acquisition transaction, we may face regulatory actions or other sanctions from the CSRC or other PRC regulatory agencies.  These regulatory agencies may impose fines and penalties on our operations in China and limit our operating privileges in China, or take other actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation and prospects, as well as the trading price of our shares.

The M&A Rule establishes more complex procedures for some acquisitions of Chinese companies by foreign investors, which could make it more difficult for us to pursue growth through acquisitions in China.

 

The M&A Rule establishes additional procedures and requirements that could make some acquisitions of Chinese companies by foreign investors more time-consuming and complex, including requirements in some instances that the PRC Ministry of Commerce be notified in advance of any change-of-control transaction and in some situations, require approval of the PRC Ministry of Commerce when a foreign investor takes control of a Chinese domestic enterprise. In the future, we may grow our business in part by acquiring complementary businesses, although we do not have any plans to do so at this time. The M&A Rule also requires PRC Ministry of Commerce anti-trust review of any change-of-control transactions involving certain types of foreign acquirers. Complying with the requirements of the M&A Rule to complete such transactions could be time-consuming, and any required approval processes, including obtaining approval from the PRC Ministry of Commerce, may delay or inhibit our ability to complete such transactions, which could affect our ability to expand our business or maintain our market share.

 

You may have difficulty enforcing judgments against us.

 

We are a Nevada holding company and most of our assets are located outside of the United States. Most of our current operations are conducted in the PRC. In addition, most of our directors and officers are nationals and residents of countries other than the United States. A substantial portion of the assets of these persons is located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officers and directors, most of whom are not residents in the United States and the substantial majority of whose assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts. Courts in China may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedures Law based on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on reciprocity between jurisdictions. China does not have any treaties or other arrangements that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments with the United States. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, courts in the PRC will not enforce a foreign judgment against us or our directors and officers if they decide that the judgment violates basic principles of PRC law or national sovereignty, security or the public interest. So, it is uncertain whether a PRC court would enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States.

 

RISKS RELATED TO THE MARKET FOR OUR STOCK

 

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board which may have an unfavorable impact on our stock price and liquidity.

 

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board.  The OTC Bulletin Board is a significantly more limited market than the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ system.  The quotation of our shares on the OTC Bulletin Board may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential stockholders to trade shares of our common stock, could depress the trading price of our common stock and could have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future.

 

We are subject to penny stock regulations and restrictions.

 

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define so-called “penny stocks” to be an equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions.  If our common stock becomes a “penny stock,” we may become subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act, or the “Penny Stock Rule.”  This rule imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that sell such securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” (generally, individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual incomes exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouses).  For transactions covered by Rule 15g-9, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to sale.  As a result, this rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell any of our securities in the secondary market.

 

18

 


 

For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require delivery, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule prepared by the SEC relating to the penny stock market.  Disclosure is also required to be made about sales commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities.  Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stock.

 

There can be no assurance that our common stock will qualify for exemption from the Penny Stock Rule.  In any event, even if our common stock were exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Exchange Act, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating in a distribution of penny stock, if the SEC finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest.

 

The number of shares being registered for sale is significant in relation to our trading volume.

 

All of the shares registered for sale on behalf of the selling stockholders are “restricted securities” as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. We have filed this registration statement to register these restricted shares for sale into the public market by the selling stockholders. These restricted securities, if sold in the market all at once or at about the same time, could depress the market price during the period the registration statement remains effective and also could affect our ability to raise equity capital.

 

Certain provisions of our Articles of Incorporation may make it more difficult for a third party to effect a change-in-control.

 

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the board of directors to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The preferred stock may be issued in one or more series, the terms of which may be determined at the time of issuance by the board of directors without further action by the stockholders.  These terms may include voting rights including the right to vote as a series on particular matters, preferences as to dividends and liquidation, conversion rights and redemption rights provisions.  The issuance of any preferred stock could diminish the rights of holders of our common stock, and therefore could reduce the value of such common stock.  In addition, specific rights granted to future holders of preferred stock could be used to restrict our ability to merge with, or sell assets to, a third party.  The ability of the board of directors to issue preferred stock could make it more difficult, delay, discourage, prevent or make it more costly to acquire or effect a change-in-control, which in turn could prevent the stockholders from recognizing a gain in the event that a favorable offer is extended and could materially and negatively affect the market price of our common stock.

MARKET DATA AND FORECASTS

Unless otherwise indicated, information in this prospectus concerning economic conditions and our industry is based on information from independent industry analysts and publications, as well as our estimates. Except where otherwise noted, our estimates are derived from publicly available information released by third-party sources, as well as data from our internal research, and are based on such data and knowledge of our industry, which we believe to be reasonable. None of the independent industry publications used in this prospectus was prepared on our or our affiliates’ behalf.


This prospectus also contains data related to the global glass industry and glass industry in China. These market data include estimates and projections that are based on a number of assumptions. If any one or more of the assumptions underlying the market data turn out to be incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from the projections. For example, the glass market may not grow at the rate projected by market data, or at all. In addition, the rapidly changing nature of the glass industry subjects any projections or estimates relating to the growth prospects or future condition of our market to significant uncertainties.

 

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock by the selling stockholders.  The selling stockholders will receive all of the net proceeds from the sales of common stock offered by them under this prospectus.  

 

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

 

The selling stockholders will determine at what price they may sell the offered shares, and such sales may be made at prevailing market prices or at privately negotiated prices.

 

DILUTION

 

Our net tangible book value as of December 31, 2007 was approximately $0.48 per share of common stock. Net tangible book value is determined by dividing our tangible book value (total assets less intangible assets including know-how and less total liabilities) by the number of outstanding shares of our common stock. Since this offering is being made solely by the selling stockholders and none of the proceeds will be paid to us, our net tangible book value will be unaffected by this offering.

 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

 

We are a leading China-based float glass manufacturer.  We have been manufacturing glass products from our production facility in Fuxin City, Liaoning Province, China since 2002 and sell our products to end users in China, Asia, Europe, South America and South Africa. Our product offerings include float glass, ultra-clear glass (also called crystal glass), colored float glass and high grade, glass processed products.  Our glass products are mostly used in a variety of end products, such as automobiles, commercial and residential buildings, construction materials, furniture and display cases, lighting fixtures and decorative glass artwork, bath fixtures electrical household appliances, such as refrigerators and microwave ovens.   Our glass and glass products are manufactured in a broad range of specifications and marketed primarily under the “Golden Elephant” brand name.  As of June 30, 2008, we believe we ranked second in the Northeast China glass market based on production capacity.

 

22

 


 

We sell our products directly, and indirectly through a broad distributor network, to automakers and auto parts suppliers, building contractors and building material suppliers and manufacturers of retail goods and we are increasingly exporting our products to the international market.  Our primary focus has been to increase sales of our float glass, ultra-clear glass, colored float glass and high grade, glass processed products.

 

As of December 31, 2007, we had 436 employees working at our two manufacturing facilities, one of which is a high grade float glass production line and the second of which is a colored float glass production line.  Daily melting capacity of these manufacturing lines is approximately 800 tons.

 

Because our recent operations have been limited to the operations of Dollar Come and its subsidiaries, the discussion below of our performance is based upon the audited financial statements of Dollar Come for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and our unaudited financial statements for the periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 which are included elsewhere in this Prospectus.

 

Principal Factors Affecting Our Financial Performance

 

We believe that the following factors will continue to affect our financial performance:

 

Recovery of the glass industry in China.   Over the past 20 years, global glass demand in most modern countries has grown more quickly than GDP.  Since 2005, demand for glass in China has been outpaced by supply, resulting in a slowdown in growth in the industry.  The slowdown largely resulted from government regulations constraining growth, environmental problems and costly raw materials and high fuel expenses.  We believe that there is a currently a resurgence in demand in the glass industry, primarily due to increased automobile production and construction activity in China, which will offset any negative macro-economic conditions in the industry thereby creating a favorable environment for the manufacture and sale of our glass products.

 

Increasing demand for specialty glass products.    Another important trend that positively affects our financial condition is the increasing demand by architects and participants in the automotive industry for high-end, value-added glass products using ultra-clear glass and ultra-thin glass.  We believe that we can capitalize on this trend as we have the current capacity to manufacture specialty glass.

 

Fluctuations in raw material and production costs.    Our operations require substantial amounts of a variety of raw materials and components, particularly silica sand, soda ash and dolomite/limestone, which can be costly and are susceptible to fluctuations in price and availability.  Fuel and energy costs, which account for over 40% of total production costs, have likewise shown price and supply volatility in recent years.  Any significant increases in the prices of our raw materials and/or fuel and energy requirements can have a direct and negative impact on our gross margin.  We attempt to offset disadvantageous price fluctuations in raw materials by sourcing large quantities to achieve economies of scale, entering into long term supply agreements and by attempting to develop alternative raw material and energy substitutes.  Ultimately, we may need to raise the price of our products in order to recover higher raw material and fuel energy costs so that we can maintain our profit margin.

 

Increase in exports.    We plan to expand sales of our products to foreign markets.  In 2007, we exported our glass and glass products to South Africa, France, Spain, Eastern Europe and Korea.  Our sales to foreign customers reached $2.7 million, or approximately 5.6% of our total sales revenue and we believe this is a growth area for future operations.

Taxation

 

United States

 

Golden Elephant Glass Technology, Inc. is incorporated in the state of Nevada and is subject the tax laws of United States at a tax rate of 34%. As of June 30, 2008, no provision for income taxes in the United States has been made as Golden Elephant Glass Technology, Inc. incurred no taxable income for federal tax purpose. In addition, no deferred tax on undistributed earnings of its non-U.S. subsidiaries was provided, as it is the Company’s current policy to reinvest these earnings in non-U.S. operations.

 

British Virgin Islands

 

Dollar Come Investments Limited was incorporated in the BVI, and, under the current laws of the BVI, is not subject to income taxes.

 

PRC

 

Before the implementation of New EIT law, Foreign Invested Enterprises, or FIE, established in the PRC are generally subject to an EIT rate of 33.0%, which includes a 30.0% state income tax and a 3.0% local income tax.  On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress of China passed the New EIT Law, and on November 28, 2007, the State Council of China passed the Implementing Rules for the EIT Law, or Implementing Rules, which took effect on January 1, 2008. The EIT Law and Implementing Rules impose a unified EIT of 25.0% on all domestic-invested enterprises and FIEs, unless they qualify under certain limited exceptions. Therefore, nearly all FIEs are subject to the new tax rate alongside other domestic businesses rather than benefiting from the old tax laws applicable to FIEs, and its associated preferential tax treatments, beginning January 1, 2008.

 

Despite these pending changes, the EIT Law gives the FIEs established before March 16, 2007, or Old FIEs, such as our subsidiary Fuxin Hengrui and Fuxin Xianheng, a five-year grandfather period during which they can continue to enjoy their existing preferential tax treatments. During this five-year grandfather period, the Old FIEs which enjoyed tax rates lower than 25% under the original EIT Law shall gradually increase their EIT rate by 2% per year until the tax rate reaches 25%. In addition, the Old FIEs that are eligible for the “two-year exemption and three-year half reduction” or “five-year exemption and five-year half-reduction” under the original EIT Law, are allowed to remain to enjoy their preference until these holidays expire. The discontinuation of any such special or preferential tax treatment or other incentives would have an adverse effect on any organization’s business, fiscal condition and current operations in China.

 

In addition to the changes to the current tax structure, under the EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with “de facto management bodies” within China is considered a resident enterprise and will normally be subject to an EIT of 25.0% on its global income. The Implementing Rules define the term “de facto management bodies” as “an establishment that exercises, in substance, overall management and control over the production, business, personnel, accounting, etc., of a Chinese enterprise.” If the PRC tax authorities subsequently determine that the Company should be classified as a resident enterprise, then the organization’s global income will be subject to PRC income tax of 25.0%.

  

Under the income tax law and the related implementing rules, FIEs engaging in manufacturing businesses with a term of operation exceeding ten years may, subject to approval from local taxation authorities, be entitled to a two-year tax exemption from PRC EIT starting from the year they become profitable and a 50.0% tax reduction for the three years thereafter.

 

As approved by the relevant PRC tax authority, Fuxin Hengrui and Fuxin Xianheng was entitled to a two-year exemption from EIT followed by a 50.0% tax exemption for the next three years, commencing from the first cumulative profit-making year in the fiscal financial year. The tax holiday of Fuxin Hengrui commenced in 2004. Accordingly, Fuxin Hengrui is entitled to an EIT tax rate of 12.5% for 2008 and will be subject to an EIT rate of 25% from 2009.  Our subsidiary Fuxin Xianheng’s tax holiday commenced in 2008, therefore, Fuxin Xianheng is exempted from EIT in 2008 and 2009 and will be subject to a reduced EIT rate of 12.5% from 2010 to 2012.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2007

 

Sales Revenue.   Our sales revenue is generated from sales of our glass products, primarily float glass and ultra-clear glass.  Sales revenue increased $0.8 million, or 3.0%, to $27.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 from $26.4 million for the same period in 2007. This increase was mainly attributable to the increased demand of our glass products and the increased per-unit price. In the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, due to the increase of raw material costs and the high market demand of glass products which exceeded supply, our per-unit price increased approximately 30% as compared to that of the same period last year.   

 

25

 


 

Cost of Sales.    Our cost of sales is primarily comprised of the costs of our raw materials, components, labor and overhead.  Our cost of sales increased $0.2 million, or 0.8%, to $21.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 from $20.8 million for the same period in 2007. This increase was mainly due to the increase of raw materials. As a percentage of sales revenue, the cost of sales decreased to 77.2% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 from 78.8% for the same period in 2007. The percentage decrease was primarily due to the increase of our per unit sales price which outpaced the increase of prices of raw materials. In addition, we used synthetic fuel oil called 520 Fuel Serum to partially replace the heavy oil which partially offset the price increase of raw materials. We also benefited from more efficient cost control management which allowed us to reduce raw material consumption per unit of production.

 

Gross Profit.    Our gross profit is equal to the difference between our sales revenue and our cost of sales. Our gross profit increased $0.6 million, or 10.8%, to $6.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $5.6 million for the same period in 2007. Gross profit as a percentage of sales revenue was 22.8% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, as compared to 21.2% for the same period in 2007. Such percentage increase was mainly due to the factors as discussed above.

 

Administrative Expenses.    Our administrative expenses consist of the costs associated with staff and support personnel who manage our business activities and professional fees paid to third parties. Our administrative expenses decreased $0.2 million, or 12.3%, to $1.2 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 from approximately $1.4 million for the same period in 2007. As a percentage of sales revenue, administrative expenses decreased to 4.6% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, as compared to 5.4% for the same period in 2007. Such percentage decrease was primarily attributable to the more efficient cost management.

Selling Expenses. Our selling expenses mainly include transportation expenses, salaries and fringe benefits of sales personnel, after-sale support services and other sales-related costs. Transportation expenses usually account for a majority of our selling expenses. Our selling expenses decreased $431,898, or 80.9%, to $101,853 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 from $533,751 for the same period in 2007. As a percentage of sales revenue, selling expenses decreased to 0.4% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, as compared to 2.0% for the same period in 2007. This decrease is primarily attributable to our decreased transportation expenses.

For export sales, our contracts are normally FOB (free on board) contracts, that is, our customers bear freight charge, but we bear transportation costs from our factories to ports and related custom expenses. However, for domestic sales, except for sales of our new product ultra-clear glass products and our deep-processed glass products, our customers bear transportation costs. As a result, transportation costs associated with export sales are generally higher than those in domestic sales. Exports sales constituted approximately 4.1% of our total sales revenue in the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, as compared to 6.4% for the same period last year. In addition, we incurred more transportation costs in the first six months last year because we manufactured ultra-clear glass products in the first six months in 2007 and we generally bear costs for sales of ultra-clear glass products. As stated above, we did not manufacture ultra-clear glass products in the first six months of 2008.

Total Expenses.    Our total expenses decreased $0.6 million, or 30.9%, to $1.4 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 from $2.0 million for the same period in 2007. As a percentage of sales revenue, total expenses decreased to 5.0% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, as compared to 7.5% for the same period in 2007. This percentage decrease was primarily attributable to the decrease of selling expenses as discussed above.

 

Income before Income Taxes.    Income before income taxes increased $1.8 million, or 51.0%, to $5.3 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 from $3.5 million for the same period in 2007. Income before income taxes as a percentage of sales revenue increased to 19.5% for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, as compared to 13.3% for the same period in 2007.

 

26

 


 

Income Taxes.    Our income taxes decreased to $543,851 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 from $632,631 for the same period in 2007 due to the decrease of EIT rate which was 16.5% last year as compared to 12.5% this year.

 

Minority Interests.    Our financial statements reflect an adjustment to our consolidated group net income equal to $4,994 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, reflecting the minority interests held by third parties in Fuxin Tianyuan. In May 2008, we sold our 70% equity interest in Fuxin Tianyuan for $709,200.

 

Net Income.    Our net income increased $1.9 million, or 65.5%, to $4.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 from a net income of $2.9 for the same period in 2007, as a result of the factors described above.

 

Comparison of 2007 and 2006

Sales Revenue.    Our sales revenue increased $17.9 million, or 59.1%, to $48.1 million in 2007 from $30.2 million in 2006. This increase was mainly attributable to increased sales due to the growing market recognition of our brand "Golden Elephant," stabilized sales prices for float glass products in 2007, and the launch of higher margin, high value-added ultra-clear glass products in 2007.

Cost of Sales.    Our cost of sales increased $5.1 million, or 15.9%, to $36.8 million in 2007 from $31.7 million in 2006. This increase was mainly due to increased sales volume. As a percentage of sales revenue, the cost of goods sold decreased to 76.4% in 2007 from 104.9% in 2006. Such percentage decrease was attributable to stabilized sales price for float glass products in 2007 and the launch of our higher margin, high value-added ultra-clear glass products in 2007. Since there are only handful of manufacturers in China can produce ultra-clear glass products, we were able to charge a higher price for our ultra-clear glass products.

Gross Profit.    Our gross profit increased $12.9 million, or 867.3%, to $11.4 million in 2007 from a loss of $1.5 million in 2006. Gross profit as a percentage of sales revenue was 23.6% in 2007, as compared to a loss of 4.9% in 2006. Such percentage increase was mainly due to the factors discussed in the immediate preceding paragraph.

Administrative Expenses.    Our administrative expenses increased $0.8 million, or 49.6%, to $2.5 million in 2007 from $1.7 million in 2006. As a percentage of sales revenue, administrative expenses decreased to 5.2% in 2007, as compared to 5.5% in 2006. This percentage decrease was primarily attributable to the fact that the increase of our sales revenue outpaced the increase in our administrative expenses.

Selling Expenses.    Our selling expenses decreased $60,088, or 8.1%, to $681,689 in 2007 from $741,777 in 2006. As a percentage of sales revenue, selling expenses decreased to 1.4% in 2007, as compared to 2.5% in 2006. This percentage decrease was primarily attributable to the decrease of our transportation expenses resulting from the decrease of export sales in 2007.  Export sales constituted approximately 16.9% of our sales revenue in 2006 as compared to 5.6% in 2007.  For export sales, our contracts are normally FOB (free on board) contracts, that is, our customers bear freight charge, but we bear transportation costs from our factories to ports and related custom expenses.  However, for domestic sales, except for sales of our new product ultra-clear glass products and our deep-processed glass products, our customers bear transportation costs. Although we launched the ultra-clear glass products in 2007 which we normally bear transportation costs, the increase of transportations costs resulting from the sales of ultra-clear glass products was more than offset by the decrease of transportation costs caused by the decrease of export sales in 2007.

Total Expenses.    Our total expenses increased $0.8 million, or 31.9%, to $3.2 million in 2007 from $2.4 million in 2006.  As a percentage of sales revenue, total expenses decreased to 6.6% in 2007, as compared to 8.0% in 2006.  This percentage decrease was primarily attributable to the profit increase was higher and faster than the increase in the expenses.

  

Income before Income Taxes and Minority Interests.    Income before income taxes and minority interests increased $11.5 million, or 281.4%, to $7.4 million in 2007 from a loss before income taxes of $4.1 million in 2006.  Income before income taxes as a percentage of sales revenue increased to 15.5% in 2007, as compared to a loss of 13.6% in 2006 due to the factors described above.

 

27

 


 

Income Taxes.    Our income taxes increased to $580,145 in 2007 from an income taxes credit of $11,748 in 2006 due to the increase of income before incomes taxes.    

 

Minority Interests.    Our financial statements reflect an adjustment to our consolidated group net income equal to $443,540 in 2006, reflecting the minority interests held by third parties in our subsidiary Fuxin Hengrui.  We acquired 100% ownership in Fuxin Hengrui on January 1, 2007, and had no such adjustment in 2007.  

 

Net Income.    Our net income increased $10.5 million, or 288.2%, to $6.9 million in 2007 from a net loss of $3.6 million in 2006, as a result of the factors described above.

Operating Activities:

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $7.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008, which is a decrease of $8.9 million from the $1.9 million net cash provided by operating activities for the same period in 2007. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was mainly due to the increase in the prepayment for raw materials. The Company’s prepayment for raw materials was $4.2 million as of June 30, 2008 as compared to $718,220 as of December 31, 2007, representing an increase of $ 3.5 million. Such increase was mainly made to accommodate the Company’s plan to manufacture ultra-clear glass products in the third quarter of 2008. In addition, the Company maintained a higher level of inventories in anticipation of increased sales and prices in the summer quarter.

 

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.7 million in 2007, as compared to $3.4 million net cash used in operating activities for the same period in 2006. In 2006, our net cash provided by operating activities was low as a result of increased costs for main raw materials, lowered gross margin and an injection of $0.87 million to research and development for high value-added ultra-white glass.  In 2007, profits from ultra-white glass amounted to 30.9% of the gross profit. Net cash increased as a result of the rising price for simple glass, higher gross margin, improved operations and better cash flow.

 

28

 


 

Investing Activities:

 

Our main uses of cash for investing activities are payments to the acquisition of property, plant and equipment and restricted cash pledged as deposit for bills payable issuance.  

 

Net cash provided by investing activities in the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 was $1.7 million, which is an increase of $1.5 million from net cash used in investing activities of $0.4 million in the same period of 2007. The increase was mainly attributable to proceeds from sales of certain assets that are unrelated to our core business.

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $1.8 million in 2007, as compared to $2.0 million net cash used in investing activities in 2006. The change was mainly due to decrease in fixed assets investment and restricted cash.

 

Financing Activities:

 

Net cash provided by financing activities in the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 totaled $5.7 million, which is an increase of $7.6 million from net cash used in investing activities of $1.9 million in the same period of 2007. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities was mainly due to a $5 million loan from Lin Tan who is a major shareholder of our company.

 

Net cash used in financing activities was $343,750 in 2007, as compared to $5.8 million net cash provided by financing activities in 2006. The change was mainly due to repayment of bank loans.


Loan from a related party on June 30, 2008 were $4.2 million, as compared to $0 on December 31, 2007 and $0.07 million on December 31, 2006. The decrease in the balance from $0.07 million on December 31, 2006 to $0 on December 31, 2007 was mainly due to repayment of advances from a few related parties in previous years for operation purposes. The change has been reflected in the movement of "Other payables" under "Cash flow from operating activities" in December 31, 2007 statement of cash flows.


Increase in balance from $0 on December 31, 2007 to $4.2 million on June 30, 2008 was mainly due to the advances of $4.2 million from Lin Tan, our major shareholder and the wife of our Chief Executive Officer, to finance the operation of the Company. The change of this advance during these periods has been reflected in the movement of “Loan from a related party” under “Cash flow from financing activities” in June 30, 2008 statement of cash flows.

 

Advances to Third Parties and Related Parties

 

Our advances to third parties and related parties were $7.2 million as of June 30, 2008, as compared to $2.9 million as of December 31, 2007 and $4.7 million as of December 31, 2006.  All advances were made to our suppliers or shareholders of Dollar Come before the Company’s reverse acquisition of Dollar Come on March 31, 2008 and while Dollar Come was a private company. All these advances have been repaid. The Company had not made any advances to its affiliates after the reverse acquisition of Dollar Come and will not make any such advances in the future. The Company has not incurred any impairment loss before, but the Company made doubtful debt provision based on the Company’s accounting policy.


The increase from $2.9 million in balance as of December 31, 2007 to $7.2 million as of June 30, 2008 was mainly due to (i) an advance of $1.4 million made to Fuxin Zhonglin Industry Limited and W.T. Construction Inc., both are wholly owned by Ms. Lin Tan, our major shareholder; (ii) an advance of $3.3 million made to Dofang Glass Co., Ltd., the acquirer of the land use right and related properties of Zhong Lin Hotel for operation purposes. We decided to sell Zhong Lin Hotel to focus on our core business - the manufacturing of glass products; and (iii) repayment of advances of $0.4 million to few third parties in previous years for operation purposes.  Item (i) is reflected in the movement of “Advances to related parties” under “Cash flow from financing activities” and items (ii) and (iii) are reflected in the movement of “Other receivables” under “Cash flow from operating activities” in June 30, 2008 statement of cash flows.

 

29

 



The decrease from $4.7 million in balance as of December 31, 2006 to $2.9 million as of December 31, 2007 was mainly due to a repayment of advances of $2.5 million to few third parties in previous years for operation purposes. The change has been reflected in the movement of “Other receivables” under “Cash flows from operating activities” in December 31, 2007 statement of cash flows.

 

Trade Receivables

The days sales outstanding was 34 days for the six months ended June 30, 2008, as compared to 30 days for the same period last year. The increase of days sales outstanding was mainly because we granted longer credit term to certain large customers with long-established business relationship.

The days sales outstanding was 43 days for 2007, as compared to 16 days for 2006. The increase of days sales outstanding was mainly because we granted very favorable credit terms to those customers who purchased our ultra-clear glass in 2007, so as to promote this new product which we produced for the first time in 2007. As of December 31, 2007, the outstanding trade receivables relating to the sales of ultra-clear glass accounted for a significant part of our total trade receivables balance. As of the date of this prospectus, we have received most of such receivables relating to our ultra-clear glass sold in 2007 and made doubtful debt provision for the outstanding balance based on the Company’s accounting policy. We do not expect to grant the same favorable credit terms for ultra-clear glass sales in the future because the Company has established a good customer base through its sales in 2007. We expect that the credit term granted to ultra-clear glass customers in the future will be around 30 days.

As of June 30, 2008, the amount, maturity date and term of each of our bank loans are as follows:

On May 6, 2008, our subsidiary Dollar Come entered into a loan agreement with Ms. Lin Tan to borrow US$5 million at the annual interest rate of 8%.  The agreement has a two-year term and the loan proceeds will be used as working capital.  

 

On July 24, 2008, we consummated a private placement transaction in which we issued and sold to certain accredited investors approximately 3.3 million shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $5 million

 

We repaid a bank loan in the amount of $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2008.  We have approximately $12.7 million bank loans that will mature in the next 12 months and we may decide to refinance these loans upon maturity. We believe that we maintain good relationships with the banks we deal with and our current available working capital, after receiving the aggregate proceeds of the loan from Ms. Tan, the private placement proceeds and bank loans referenced above, should be adequate to sustain our operations at our current levels through the next twelve months.

  

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any.  We consider our critical accounting policies to be those that require the more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of financial statements, including the following:

 

30

 


 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, goodwill is not amortized and is subjected to an annual impairment test which occurs in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year.

 

Goodwill will be written down only when and if impairment is identified and measured, based on future events and conditions.

 

Use of estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  These accounts and estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivable, inventories, deferred income taxes and the estimation on useful lives of property, plant and equipment.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Concentrations of credit risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and other receivables.  All of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were held by major financial institutions located in the PRC, which management believes are of high credit quality.  With respect to other receivables and trade receivables, the Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition.  The Company generally does not require collateral for trade receivables and other receivables which maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts of trade receivables and other receivables.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash, deposits in banks and other highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  Almost all the cash and cash equivalents were denominated in Renminbi (“RMB”) and were placed with banks in the PRC.  They are not freely convertible into foreign currencies and the remittance of these funds out of the PRC is subject to exchange control restrictions imposed by the PRC government.  The remaining insignificant balance of cash and cash equivalents were denominated in US dollars.

 

Restricted Cash

 

Deposits in banks pledged as securities for bills payable that are restricted in use are classified as restricted cash under current assets.

 

Allowance of doubtful accounts

 

The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s assessment of the collectibility of trade receivables and other receivables.  A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the amount of the allowance, the Company considers the historical level of credit losses and applies percentages to aged receivable categories.  The Company makes judgments about the creditworthiness of each customer based on ongoing credit evaluations, and monitors current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future.  If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a larger allowance may be required.

 

31

 


 

Based on the above assessment, during the reporting years, the management establishes the general provisioning policy to make allowance equivalent to 10% of gross amount of trade receivables and other receivables due over 6-12 months, 25% gross amount of trade receivables and other receivables due over 1-2 years and 50% of gross amount of trade receivables and other receivables due over 2-3 years and 100% of gross amount of trade receivables and other receivables due over 3 years.  Additional specific provision is made against trade receivables aged less than 6 months to the extent which they are considered to be doubtful.

 

Bad debts are written off when identified.  The Company extends unsecured credit to customers ranging from three to six months in the normal course of business.  The Company does not accrue interest on trade receivables.

 

Historically, losses from uncollectible accounts have not significantly deviated from the general allowance estimated by the management and no significant additional bad debts have been written off directly to the profit and loss.  This general provisioning policy has not changed in the past since establishment and the management considers that the aforementioned general provisioning policy is adequate and not too excessive and does not expect to change this established policy in the near future.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value.  Cost is determined on a weighted average basis and includes all expenditures incurred in bringing the goods to the point of sale and putting them in a saleable condition.  In assessing the ultimate realization of inventories, the management makes judgments as to future demand requirements compared to current or committed inventory levels.  Our reserve requirements generally increase as our projected demand requirements; decrease due to market conditions, product life cycle changes.  The Company estimates the demand requirements based on market conditions, forecasts prepared by its customers, sales contracts and orders in hand.

 

In addition, the Company estimates net realizable value based on intended use, current market value and inventory ageing analyses.  The Company writes down the inventories for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventories and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions.

 

Based on the above assessment, the Company establishes a general provision to make a 50% provision for inventories aged over 1 year.  As of  December 31, 2007 and 2006, no general provision for inventories was made.

 

Historically, the actual net realizable value is close to the management estimation.

 

Property, plant and equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.  Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its existing use.

 

Depreciation is provided on straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.  The principal depreciation rates are as follows :

 

 

Annual rate

 

Residual value

 

 

 

 

Buildings

1.9%

 

5%

Plant and machinery

9.5%

 

5%

Motor vehicles

11.875%

 

5%

Office equipment

19%

 

5%

Tools

9.5%

 

5%

Leasehold improvements

12.5%

 

Nil

 

32

 


 

Construction in progress mainly represents expenditures in respect of the Company’s warehouses and factories under construction.  All direct costs relating to the acquisition or construction of the Company’s warehouses and factories are capitalized as construction in progress.  No depreciation is provided in respect of construction in progress.

 

Maintenance or repairs are charged to expense as incurred.  Significant improvements and renewals that extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized.  Upon sale or disposition, the applicable amounts of asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the net amount less proceeds from disposal is charged or credited to income.

 

Land use right

 

Land use right is stated at cost less accumulated amortization.  Amortization is provided using the straight-line method over the terms of the lease of 50 years obtained from the relevant PRC land authority.

 

Impairment of long-lived assets

 

Long-lived assets are tested for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144 and Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion 18, Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock, respectively.  The Company periodically evaluates potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable.  The Company recognizes impairment of long-lives assets and investment in an affiliate in the event that the net book values of such assets exceed the future undiscounted cashflows attributable to such assets.  During the reporting periods, the Company has no identified any indicators that would require testing for impairment.

 

Revenue recognition

 

Revenue from sales of the Company’s products is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer at the time of delivery, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured.

 

Government grant

 

Government grant income represents the cash receipt from the relevant government authorities for technical development.  Government grant is recognized as income at the time when the approval documents are obtained from the relevant government authorities and when they are received.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes pursuant to SFAS No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes”.  Under the asset and liability method of SFAS 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and loss carry forwards and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

 

Foreign currency translation

 

The functional currency of the Company is RMB and RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies.  The Company maintains its financial statements in the functional currency.  Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date.  Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchanges rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction.  Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods.

 

33

 


 

For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the Company which are prepared using the functional currency have been translated into United States dollars.  Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates and stockholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates.  Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign exchange adjustment to other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity.  The exchange rates in effect at December 31,2007 and 2006 were RMB1 for $0.1371 and $0.1282 respectively. There  is no significant fluctuation in exchange rate for the conversion of RMB to US dollars after the balance sheet  date.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade and other receivables, dividend payable, trade, bills and other payables approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of such instruments.  The carrying amounts of bank borrowings approximate their fair values because the applicable interest rates approximate current market rates.

 

It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, price or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

 

In respect of foreign currency risk, the Company is exposed to this risk arising from import purchase transactions and recognized trade payables as they will affect the future operating results of the Company.  The Company did not have any hedging transactions during the reporting periods.  As the functional currency of the Company is RMB, the exchange difference on translation to US dollars for reporting purpose is taken to other comprehensive income.

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

 

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160 “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements-an amendment of ARB No. 51.” SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. The guidance will become effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008. The management is in the process of evaluating the impact that SFAS 160 will have on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

 

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised) “Business Combinations.” SFAS 141 (Revised) establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. The statement also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The guidance will become effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008. The management is in the process of evaluating the impact that SFAS 141 (Revised) will have on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

 

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133”. SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged.  The management is in the process of evaluating the impact that SFAS 161 will have on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

 

34

 


 

In May 2008, FASB issued SFAS 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”, effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The Board does not expect that this Statement results in a change in practice. The management is in the process of evaluating the impact that SFAS 162 will have on our financial statements upon adoption.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Seasonality

 

Our business is seasonal, with the highest proportion of sales and operating income being generated in the second and third quarters of each year, with lesser sales and operating income being generated in the first and fourth quarters fourth quarters of each year.  Our working capital requirements fluctuate during the year, increasing substantially during the first and fourth quarters as a result of lower demand for glass products due to the curtailment of construction works in winter season.

Our Corporate History

 

We were incorporated on December 2, 1993 in the State of Nevada under the name of Mesquite Gaming Corp and were formed to acquire, develop, construct, own and manage hotel/casino projects. On July 1, 1998, we opened for business and began receiving revenues from operations.  On December 1, 1999, we filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 in the United States Bankruptcy Court, District of Nevada, or the Bankruptcy Court, and acted as debtor in possession.  On July 10, 2000, we again filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 in the Bankruptcy Court and acted as debtor in possession.  On September 6, 2005, the Bankruptcy Court issued a final decree in the Chapter 11 proceedings, formally removing our Company from the oversight of the Bankruptcy Court and ending all bankruptcy proceedings.

 

On October 11, 2005, we entered into a stock purchase agreement with Halter Financial Investments, L.P., a Texas limited partnership, or HFI pursuant to which we sold 250,000 newly issued, restricted  post-reverse split shares of our common stock to HFI for gross proceeds of $75,000.  We relied upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, for an exemption from registration of these shares.  As a result of this transaction, HFI became our controlling stockholder, owning approximately 59.6% of the 419,436 issued and outstanding shares of our common stock.

 

On November 17, 2006, we sold to HFI 723,641 shares of restricted common stock for $217,092.30 or $.30 per share.  The transaction was effected pursuant to the terms of a stock purchase agreement entered into by our Company and HFI on November 17, 2006.  The purchase transaction was effected without registration in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

 

On March 31, 2008, we completed the reverse acquisition of Dollar Come as discussed in details below. Dollar Come thereby became our wholly owned subsidiary.  In June 2008, we changed our name from “Nevstar Corporation” to “Golden Elephant Glass Technology, Inc.” to reflect the business of Dollar Come and its subsidiaries.

 

Acquisition of Dollar Come

 

On March 31, 2008, we completed a reverse acquisition transaction through a share exchange with Dollar Come whereby we issued to Money Victory Limited, Win-Win Global Investments Inc. and a trust beneficially holding shares of Dollar Come for 202 individuals located in the PRC who were the former shareholders of Dollar Come, an aggregate of 23,751,710 shares of our common stock, in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Dollar Come. Dollar Come thereby became our wholly owned subsidiary and Ms. Lin Tan, Ms. Yan Tan and Ms. Hong Tan, owners of Money Victory Limited and Win-Win Global Investments Inc. became our controlling stockholders.

Our Industry

 

Overview of Global Glass Industry

 

According to a 2007 report issued by the Pilkington Group, or the Pilkington Report, the global market for flat glass was approximately 44 million tons in 2006.   Demand for high quality float glass was approximately 26 million tons, demand for sheet glass was 3 million tons, demand for rolled glass was 2 million tons and the remaining 13 million tons represented demand for lower quality float glass.  Approximately 70% of this tonnage is used in the construction industry, 10% is used in the automotive industry and 20% is used in furniture and other interior applications.  

 

Over the past 20 years, glass demand has grown more quickly than GDP. Over the long term, glass demand is growing at just over 4% annually with the strongest gains in fast developing regions such as greater Asia, especially China. Much of this growth is expected to be driven by the construction and automotive industries and also by legislation and regulations concerning safety, noise reduction and the response to the growing need for energy conservation.

 

Approximately three-quarters of the demand for glass is generated by Europe, China and North America and four companies -- NSG/Pilkington, Saint-Gobain, Asahi and Guardian -- produce approximately 66% of the high quality float glass, which is rapidly replacing lower quality float and sheet glass.

 

Overview of Chinese Glass Industry

 

The Pilkington Report stated that China’s importance as a producer and consumer of glass and glass products has been swiftly growing since the 1990s as its economy has opened and become more developed and vibrant.  China currently accounts for over 33% of the world glass demand, up from approximately 20% just a decade ago.

 

According to Analyzed Report on Investment and Development of Chinese Glass Industry (2006-2007), in 2006, China produced approximately 454 million weight cases of flat glass, representing over 40% of the total worldwide output.  The glass industry in China, however, experienced a cyclical downturn in recent years lasting through the end of 2005 as a result of a challenging regulatory environment, increased raw material costs and higher manufacturing costs.  Industry wide gross revenue decreased from RMB 2766 million in 2004 to RMB 879 million in 2005. The glass industry recovered in 2007 after the Chinese government promulgated policies to optimize the industrial structure and reduce energy consumption. The industry was also boosted by the rapid development in China’s real estate and automobile industries. As a result, the gross profit reached over RMB 2 billion in 2007.

 

Based on the continued growth rate in the Chinese gross domestic product, the rapid industrialization, urbanization and construction of new rural areas of Chinese and the extensive use of energy-saving glass, we believe that the glass industry will rebound measurably.  

 

Based on the Analyzed Report on Investment and Development of Chinese Glass Industry, we believe that recovery of the glass industry in China also is marked by the following factors:

 

From January to August 2007, the sales revenue for China’s glass industry was RMB 152.8 billion, an increase of 34.33% over the same period in 2006, and the gross profit reached RMB 10.3 billion, an increase of 90.22% over the same period in 2006.

The price of float glass stopped declining and recovered in 2007. In November 2007, the average price for float glass was RMB 74.87 per weight case, an increase of 13.99% over the same period in 2006.

The construction and auto industry, the two major driving forces of demand for glass, have experienced rapid growth in 2007. By November 2007, the square meters under construction increased 18.1%, reaching a new high in three years. By November 2007, the auto output reached 8.06 million vehicles, an increase of 22.25% over the same period in 2006.

Growth of the Chinese Glass Industry

 

We believe that both production and demand for glass and glass products will continue to grow in China and abroad due to the following factors:

 

The domestic glass industry can capitalize on China’s overall GDP growth.   According to the Eleventh Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development, Chinese GDP is expected to maintain an annualized growth rate exceeding 8%.   This overall economic growth is driven largely by the construction and automotive industries which are the two largest consumers of our products.  We believe that continued demand by these and other industries as well as the rapid industrialization, urbanization and construction of new rural areas of our country will create growth opportunities for us.

Industry Shift.  For a variety of reasons, China is becoming a leading industrial and manufacturing center. There is a global trend towards moving manufacturing operations from countries where manufacturing costs are generally higher to countries such as China, where the manufacturing costs are generally lower.  More foreign multinational companies are entering the Chinese market to manufacture their goods which affords us greater opportunity to sell our products to them.  We believe that this trend of large multinational companies seeking to produce their products in China will benefit us.

 

Development of a Global Marketplace.  In connection with China’s entry into the World Trade Organization in 2005, trade barriers affecting the glass industry were eliminated and Chinese glass manufacturers were afforded a worldwide market.  While the growth rate may not reach historic level, we believe that Chinese glass manufacturers have a significant opportunity to satisfy demand in the global market.


Our Competitive Strengths

 

We believe that the following strengths enable us to compete effectively in and to capitalize on growth of the glass industry in China:

 

Leading market position.    As of June 30, 2008, we believe ranked second in Northeast China in the glass market in terms of production capacity.


Possession of developed industrial technologies.    We believe that we are the first China-based manufacturer capable of producing ultra-clear glass using self-developed technologies. We also have an exclusive license to produce and use synthetic fuel oil called 520 Fuel Serum, which can be used as a substitute for 65 tons of heavy fuel oil per day.


Highly experienced and incentivized research and development team.  We have a R&D department composed of 32 engineers with years of experiences.  We are committed to developing new products, and generally launch a new product every 6 months.


Capacity to produce a broad product mix.  We have production lines for daily melting capacity for 500 tons of high quality float glass and 300 tons of high quality, ultra-clear and colored float glass, and we also have processing line for mirrors and processing equipment for other glass products such as insulating glass, tempered glass and laminated glass.


Low cost, high quality products.  We focus on manufacturing and selling high quality glass at competitive prices.  We believe we have price advantage over most of our competitors.


Long-term relationships.  Approximately 90% of our products are sold through a broad network of distributors with which we have had long standing relationships.

 

39

 


 

Our Growth Strategy

 

We plan to grow our business through the following strategies:

 

Leverage strength of specialty product lines.   We believe that the market for ultra-clear float glass will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 24% through 2010 based on estimated growth rates for lighting products, showcases, decorative crystal artwork, bath fixtures, household appliances, decorative building materials and solar panels.  We intend to leverage our capabilities in producing specialty float glass and capitalize on the expected demand from manufacturers of these end products.


Minimize adverse fluctuations in raw material costs.    We intend to control our raw material costs by developing in-house capabilities for sourcing key raw materials and by establishing long-term commitments with suppliers for future expected raw material requirements.


Increase production and glass processing capacity.    We intend to expand our production and glass processing capacity by increasing and enhancing our production lines and equipment and by expanding our product mix.


Strengthen our research and development capabilities.    We plan to invest in personnel, technology and equipment to further improve our research and development capabilities. We expect that this investment will contribute to our ability to further control our production costs and develop new high quality products.


Capitalize on positive reputation and expertise.    We hope to continue new product development while leveraging our strong customer relationships as a means of cross-selling our new products. We also plan to apply our existing technical and manufacturing expertise to develop innovative new product lines.

 

Our Operations

 

Our core product lines can be categorized as float glass products, consisting primarily of flat glass and specialty float glass products which are produced using the float glass methodology.  The float methodology is currently used to manufacture virtually all of the flat glass in the world.  

 

This manufacturing process produces a flat sheet of glass and consists of the following six essential steps:

 

1.

Batch mixing.  The raw materials (silica sand, soda ash and dolomite/limestone) are weighed and mixed and placed into a high temperature furnace where they are melted at 1500° C into molten glass.


2.

Float bath.  The molten glass mixture then is directed to a pool of liquid tin on which the molten glass “floats” while hardening.  The glass, which is viscous, and the tin, which is fluid, does not mix and the contact surface between these two materials is perfectly flat.


3.

Coating. At this stage, specialized metal oxides coatings can be applied to the glass surface while the glass is still hot in the annealing lehr in order to improve its performance or enhance its appearance.


4.

Annealing.  Whether or not the molten glass is coated, the molten glass is slowly cooled or “annealed” as its passes into an annealing chamber called a lehr.  Here it is cooled at controlled temperatures, until it is essentially at room temperature.


5.

Inspection.  Next the glass is inspected to ensure that is meets specifications and quality requirements.

 

40

 



6.

Cutting and Shipping.  Finally, the float glass is then cut into large standard sheets or cut to size depending on its intended use and is ready to be shipped.

 

A description of the uses of our float glass and our products benefits are as follows:

 

Heavy Float Glass.  Our heavy float glass products, which are available in a variety of sizes, are manufactured based on our customers’ desired performance specifications with respect to thickness and tolerance, total weight, energy efficiency and light transmittance.  Our products are designed to control energy usage, provide thermal insulation and a noise barrier as well as afford safety and security.  Heavy float glass products are used in a wide variety of products including windows, doors, skylights, shelving, tabletops, and automotive applications.

 

Ultra-Clear Glass and Colored Float Glass.  Our Ultra-Clear float glass products are produced to have a higher percentage of light transmittance of up to 91.87% (as compared to 80-85% in our heavy float glass products) which results in glass product with enhanced clarity and greater translucence.  This product line is designed to offer functional benefits in addition to aesthetic benefits, such as color, shaping, patterns and texture. Ultra-Clear Glass is used to produce high end products such as luxury chandeliers and artificial crystal crafts.

 

Specialty Glass Processed Products.  Using a variation on the standard float glass production methodology, we manufacture and sell specialty float glass products which include mirrors, tempered glass, insulated glass, laminated glass, lacquerd glass, etc.  

 

Manufacturing Facilities

 

Our primary manufacturing facility is located in Fuxin City in the Liaoning Province, China.  Our goal has been to construct manufacturing facilities which operate at peak efficiency while maintaining high workplace safety and environmental compliance standards.  

 

As of December 31, 2007, we had 436 employees currently working at our two float glass production lines and various production equipment.

 

We own one production line which became operative in August 2003 and has daily melting capacity of  500 tons.  We leased another production line from the liquidation committee of Fuxin Guangya Flat Glass Co. Ltd with a term ending on the earlier of (i) ten years starting from August 25, 2004; or (ii) the closing date of the liquidation process for Fuxin Guangya Flat Glass Co. Ltd.  We upgraded this production line and it went into operation in September 2005.  The production line has a daily melting capacity of 300 tons and up to 1.65 million weight cases production capacity of ultra-clear and colored float glass annually.  Our production lines are designed to operate continuously, 365 days per year, throughout a 6 to 10 years initial operating life. Float lines are normally capable of several campaigns after the initial operating life following major repair and upgrade programs.  Our capital expenditures for these production lines have been over $35 million.

 

Our production lines operate on 3 eight-hour shifts per day over a 7-day work week.  Full utilization of our assembly lines is defined on this basis, and overtime production may result in utilization rates exceeding 100%.  Our average utilization rate during 2006 and 2007 has been 100% and 100%, respectively.

 

We also maintain a mirror processing line and processing equipment used to produce mirrors, glass artwork, tempered glass, insulated glass, laminated glass, lacquerd glass and other processed glass products.

 

Raw Materials

 

The primary raw materials and components we use to produce our glass and glass products are pure alkali, heavy oil, sandstone, silica sand, dolomite/limestone, 520 Fuel Slurry and mirabilite.  We also have high energy requirements due to the extreme nature of the production process.  Our primary raw material account for approximately 37% of our total production costs and fuel and energy account for approximately 46% of total production costs.  We attempt to source our raw materials locally or regionally in order to maintain quality control and minimize transportation costs.

 

41

 


 

Recently, our former subsidiary Fuxin Tianyuan granted us an exclusive license for no consideration to produce and use a proprietary synthetic fuel oil called 520 Fuel Serum.  The exclusive license will expire upon the earlier of patent expiration date or the date when Fuxin Tianyuan loses its proprietary rights to such technology for reasons other than the expiration of the patent.  520 Fuel Serum can be used as a substitute for 65 tons of heavy fuel oil per day, thereby creating for us significant cost savings for us.  We expect that the use of 520 Fuel Serum will result in annual cost savings of approximately $4 million annually or 8%, as a percentage of sales revenue.   

Our Suppliers and Supplier Arrangements

 

We purchase the majority of our raw materials from suppliers located in China who are able to furnish us raw material that meet our quality standards and terms of delivery. We utilize local suppliers in close proximity to us, typically within 150 kilometers of our manufacturing facilities, in order to closely supervise their activities and monitor quality.  If geographically proximate suppliers continue to be able to provide high quality raw materials and components to us, we intend to continue to source our raw materials and components from them to take advantage of lower shipping costs and favorable quality control capabilities.  Our suppliers must meet our quality standards and delivery requirements consistently to remain on our approved supplier list. We utilize at least three suppliers for each major raw material and we order from each of them in order to avoid dependence on specific major suppliers. If a supplier furnishes suboptimal materials to us or is repeatedly late in deliveries, we remove them from our approved supplier list.

 

We typically purchase raw materials and components from our suppliers on credit, with terms requiring payment within 90 days following the delivery of the raw materials or components. When we purchase raw materials and components from PRC suppliers, we are able to pay in Renminbi.

 

Our largest suppliers in terms of annual cash expenditures through December 31, 2007 are Shandong Haihua Co., Ltd., Dalian Chemical Group Co. Ltd., Ruicheng Economic and Trade Company of Dalian Bonded Area, Erdos Mengxing Chemical Co. Ltd. and Panjin Guangda Liquid Ammonia Distribution Station, which collectively accounted for approximately $13.9 million in expenditures in 2007.

 

Our Distributors and Customers

 

We sell approximately 90% of our glass products through various regional distributors in China.  We have established and maintained long term relationships with major distributors who we believe have local business experience and established regional sales networks.   For the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, approximately 67.2 % and 75% of our sales revenue came from our top ten distributors.  In 2007, our biggest customer Anshan Xingsheng Glass Distribution Office, or Anshan Xingshen, accounted for approximately 15.8% of our total sales revenue. No other customers accounted for more than 10% of our sales revenue in 2007.  We entered a product purchase agreement with Anshan Xingsheng on January 8, 2008 under which Anshan Xingsheng has agreed to purchase a total of 300,000 weight case of our glass products from January 2008 to December 2008 for a total consideration of RMB 24 million (approximately $4 million). Anshan Xingsheng will bear the transportation costs.

 

Sales and Marketing

 

As of December 31, 2007, our sales department consisted of twelve employees, each of whom assigned to be in contact with our primary distributors.  Members of our sales team generate sales leads by contacting prospective distributors directly and by attending industry trade shows and exhibitions. In addition, we utilize internet to advertise and introduce ourselves to overseas potential customers and established agent sales network in Africa, Korea, Russia and mid-east area.  We are also developing our sales networks in China by establishing warehouses in many major cities to reduce intermediary costs, improve profit margin and introduce our new products . We utilized the new marketing strategy in Dalian which proved to be successful.

 

42

 


 

Competition

 

Our experience is that the global glass manufacture industry is dominated by several major global manufacturers and then becomes extremely fragmented with numerous smaller regional manufacturers.  

 

Our major international competitors are NSG/Pilkington Group Limited, Saint-Gobain, Asahi and Guardian, which manufacture nearly 70% of the glass produced in the world, have more resources and greater brand recognition than we enjoy.  While our resources may not be as great as our larger competitors, we believe our product quality, sales network, and sales and distribution network in China are superior.

 

We also compete with approximately 300 small-sized, local Chinese glass manufacturers. The number of these small companies varies from time to time. While we may have greater resources than our smaller competitors, it is possible that these competitors have better access in certain local markets to customers and prospects or an enhanced ability to customize products to a regional industry sector.  Our major competitors in China include Shandong Jinjing Science & Technology Stock Co., Ltd., CSG Holding Co., Ltd, Luoyang Glass Company Limited.

 

Intellectual Property

 

Our goal is to utilize our intellectual property to provide us with a competitive advantage or significant cost savings.

 

Our subsidiary Fuxin Hengrui holds one invention patent registration for the combustion method of synthetic petroleum in float glass melting furnace. Fuxin Hengrui also registered the trademark “Golden Elephant” in Chinese characters for various glass products and filed the trademark application for “Golden Elephant” in English characters on January 28, 2008 which is pending registration with the Trademark Office of the State Administration of Industry and Commerce of China.  In addition, pursuant to a license agreement entered into on August 27, 2008, our former subsidiary Fuxin Tianyuan has granted us an exclusive license to use two utility model patents and three technologies as to which Fuxin Tianyuan has submitted invention patent application with the PRC Patent Office. In the future, we will seek protection of our intellectual property where we believe there to be strategic importance in doing so.

 

We cannot give any assurance that the protection afforded our intellectual property will be adequate. It may be possible for third parties to obtain and use, without our consent, intellectual property that we own or are licensed to use. Unauthorized use of our intellectual property by third parties, and the expenses incurred in protecting our intellectual property rights, may adversely affect our business.

 

Properties

 

There is no private land ownership in China. Individuals and companies are permitted to acquire land use rights for specific purposes. We were granted land use rights from the PRC government for 134318.5 square meters of land located in the Glass Industrial Park at 123 Chuangye Road, Haizhou District, Fuxin City, Liaoning Province, China. We also have 21 properties located at 123 Chuangye Road, Haizhou District, Fuxin City, Liaoning Province, China. The land use rights will expire on September 18, 2052. We have placed mortgages on the land and 19 properties to secure certain bank loans for an amount up to approximately $8.3 million.

 

We also lease land use right for 108,068 square meters and 42 properties (aggregated surface of 22,470.22 square meters) from Fuxin Guangya Flat Glass Co. Ltd.  We believe that all our properties have been adequately maintained, are generally in good condition and are suitable and adequate for our business.

 

Dongfang Company which is owned by our majority stockholder Ms. Lin Tan transferred some properties including a hotel and some villas to Fuxin Hengrui to be used as collateral for a bank loan.  In March 2008, Fuxin Hengrui transferred the properties back to Dongfang Company after the bank loan was repaid.

Environmental Matters

 

During the glass production, there are unavoidable emissions of sulfur oxide and other exhaust gases and by-products which can be environmentally harmful.  Our goal is to maintain an environmentally conscious operation so we have sought to develop, promote and utilize new technologies and techniques that minimize the environmentally harmful effects of exhaust gas from our melting kilns. In order to minimize the negative effect of these substances on the environment, China also has adopted strict environmental standards for these emissions and discharges of environmental pollutants.  Accordingly, our manufacturing facilities are subject to various pollution control regulations with respect to noise and air pollution and the disposal of waste and hazardous materials.  We also are subject to periodic inspections by local environmental protection authorities.  Our operating subsidiaries have received certifications from the relevant PRC government agencies indicating that their business operations are in material compliance with the relevant PRC environmental laws and regulations. We are not currently subject to any pending actions alleging any violations of applicable PRC environmental laws. Environmental approval is currently pending with Fuxin authorities.

  

Regulation

 

Because our operating subsidiaries are located in the PRC, we are regulated by the national and local laws of the PRC.

 

We are subject to the environmental regulations described in the preceding section entitled “Our Business – Environmental Matters.”

 

There is no private ownership of land in China. Upon payment of a land grant fee, land use rights can be obtained from the government for a period unto 50 years in the case of industrial land and are typically renewable. We have received the necessary land use rights certificate for 264,000 square meters of land located in the Glass Industrial Park 123 Chuangye Road, Haizhou District, Fuxin City, Liaoning Province, China.

 

We are also subject to China’s foreign currency regulations. The PRC government has controlled Renminbi reserves primarily through direct regulation of the conversion of Renminbi into other foreign currencies. Although foreign currencies, which are required for “current account” transactions, can be bought freely at authorized PRC banks, the proper procedural requirements prescribed by PRC law must be met. At the same time, PRC companies are also required to sell their foreign exchange earnings to authorized PRC banks, and the purchase of foreign currencies for capital account transactions still requires prior approval of the PRC government.

 

Under current PRC laws and regulations, FIEs may pay dividends only out of their accumulated after-tax profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and regulations. In addition, FIEs in China are required to set aside at least 10.0% of their after-tax profit based on PRC accounting standards each year to their general reserves until the cumulative amount of such reserves reaches 50.0% of their registered capital. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends. The board of directors of an FIE has the discretion to allocate a portion of the FIEs’ after-tax profits to staff welfare and bonus funds, which may not be distributed to equity owners except in the event of liquidation.

 

We do not face any significant government regulation in connection with the production of our products. We do not require any special government permits to produce our products other than those permits that are required of all corporations in China.

 

Our Employees

 

As of December 31, 2007, we employed 436 full-time employees.

 

As required by applicable PRC law, we have entered into employment contracts with most of our officers, managers and employees. We are working towards entering employment contracts with those employees who do not currently have employment contracts with us. We believe that we maintain a satisfactory working relationship with our employees, and we have not experienced any significant labor disputes or any difficulty in recruiting staff for our operations.

 

44

 


  

Our employees in China participate in a state pension scheme organized by PRC municipal and provincial governments. We are currently required to contribute to the scheme at the rate of 20% of the average monthly salary.

 

In addition, we are required by PRC law to cover employees in China with various types of social insurance, and we believe that we are in material compliance with the relevant PRC laws.

 

Seasonality

 

Our business is seasonal, with the highest proportion of sales and operating income being generated in the second and third quarters of each year, with lesser sales and operating income being generated in the first and fourth quarters fourth quarters of each year.  Our working capital requirements fluctuate during the year, increasing substantially during the first and fourth quarters as a result of lower demand for glass products due to the curtailment of construction works in winter season.

 

Insurance

 

We maintain property insurance for our premises located at Fuxin, China where our main production facilities are located. The aggregate maximum amount covered by our insurance policy is up to RMB 83 million (approximately $11 million). We also maintain property insurance for our automobiles. We do not maintain business interruption, product liability insurance or key-man life insurance.  We believe our insurance coverage is customary and standard of companies of comparable size in comparable industries in China.  However, we cannot ensure that our existing  insurance policies are sufficient to insulate us from all loses and liabilities that we may incur.

 

Litigation

 

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business.  We are currently not a party to any legal proceeding and are not aware of any legal claims that we believe will have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

Director Compensation

 

During the 2007 fiscal year, we did not pay our directors any compensation for their services as our directors.  In the future, we may adopt a policy of paying independent directors a fee for their attendance at board and committee meetings.  We do reimburse each director for reasonable travel expenses related to such director’s attendance at board of directors and committee meetings.  

 

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS; CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

 

Transactions with related persons

 

The following includes a summary of transactions since the beginning of the last fiscal year, or any currently proposed transaction, in which we were or are to be a participant and the amount involved exceeded or exceeds $120,000, and in which any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than compensation described under “Executive Compensation”).  We believe the terms obtained or consideration that we paid or received, as applicable, in connection with the transactions described below were comparable to terms available or the amounts that would be paid or received, as applicable, in arm's-length transactions.

 

Except as set forth in our discussion above, none of our directors, director nominees or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.  

 

In 2007, Fuxin Hengrui made five purchases of coal water mixture from its former subsidiary, Fuxin Tianyuan in the aggregate amount of $2.3 million.  Fuxin Tianyuan is owned by Fuxin Zhixin Technology Co., Ltd., an unrelated third party, and ceased to be our subsidiary in May 2008.

 

In 2007, Fuxin Hengru made an advance in the amount of US$3.26 million to Fuxin Zhonglin Industry Ltd. and W.7. Construction Inc., both are wholly owned by Ms. Lin Tan, our major shareholder and wife of our CEO and director Lihui Song. Ms. Tan used such amount to purchase ownership of Fuxin Hengrui from other Fuxin Hengrui minority shareholders.

 

On May 6, 2008, our subsidiary Dollar Come entered into a loan agreement with Ms. Lin Tan to borrow US$5 million at the annual interest rate of 8%.  The agreement has a two-year term and the loan proceeds will be used as working capital.

Promoters and Certain Control Persons

 

We did not have any promoters at any time during the past five fiscal years.

 

Director Independence

 

We currently do not have any independent directors, as the term “independent” is defined by the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market.

 

Board Composition and Committees

 

Our board of directors is currently composed of one member, Mr. Lihui Song, who is also our Chief Executive Officer and President.  

 

All actions of the board of directors require the approval of a majority of the directors in attendance at a meeting at which a quorum is present.  

 

We currently do not have standing audit, nominating or compensation committees.  Currently, our sole director is responsible for the functions that would otherwise be handled by these committees.  We intend, however, to establish an audit committee, a nominating committee and a compensation committee of the board of directors as soon as practicable.  We envision that the audit committee will be primarily responsible for reviewing the services performed by our independent auditors, evaluating our accounting policies and our system of internal controls.  The nominating committee would be primarily responsible for nominating directors and setting policies and procedures for the nomination of directors.  The nominating committee would also be responsible for overseeing the creation and implementation of our corporate governance policies and procedures.  The compensation committee will be primarily responsible for reviewing and approving our salary and benefit policies (including stock options), including compensation of executive officers.  

 

Our board of directors has not made a determination as to whether any member of our board of directors is an audit committee financial expert.  Upon the establishment of an audit committee, the board will determine whether any of the directors qualify as an audit committee financial expert.

CHANGE IN ACCOUNTANTS

On March 31, 2008, concurrent with the reverse merger transaction, our board of directors recommended and approved the dismissal of Rose, Snyder & Jacobs, or Rose, as our independent auditor, effective upon the filing of the consummation of the share exchange transaction.

 

Rose’s reports on our financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2007 did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, except that its report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 contained a going concern qualification as to the ability of us to continue.

 

During our two most recent fiscal years ended 2006 and 2007 and during the subsequent interim period through the date of this report, there were (1) no disagreements with Rose on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Rose, would have caused Rose to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its reports, and (2) no events of the type listed in paragraphs (A) through (D) of Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.   

 

49

 


 

Concurrent with the decision to dismiss Rose as our independent auditor, our board of directors elected to continue the existing relationship of our new subsidiary Fuxin Hengrui with PKF Hong Kong, Certified Public Accounts and appointed PKF Hong Kong, Certified Public Accounts as our independent registered public accounting firm.  

 

During the fiscal years ended 2006 and 2007 and through the date hereof, neither us nor anyone acting on our behalf consulted PKF Hong Kong, Certified Public Accounts with respect to (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements, and neither a written report was provided to us or oral advice was provided that PKF Hong Kong, Certified Public Accounts concluded was an important factor considered by us in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement or reportable events set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) and (v), respectively, of Regulation S-K.

 

We furnished Rose with a copy of this disclosure on March 31, 2008, providing Rose with the opportunity to furnish us with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether it agrees with the statements made by us herein in response to Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K and, if not, stating the respect in which it does not agree.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED

Common Stock

 

We are authorized to issue up to 150,000,000 shares, consisting of any combination of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share.  Each outstanding share of common stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote per share on all matters.  Our bylaws provide that elections for directors shall be by a plurality of votes.  Stockholders do not have preemptive rights to purchase shares in any future issuance of our common stock.  Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, and after payment of creditors and preferred stockholders, if any, our assets will be divided pro-rata on a share-for-share basis among the holders of the shares of common stock.

 

53

 


 

The holders of shares of our common stock are entitled to dividends out of funds legally available when and as declared by our board of directors.  Our board of directors has never declared a dividend and does not anticipate declaring a dividend in the foreseeable future.  Should we decide in the future to pay dividends, as a holding company, our ability to do so and meet other obligations depends upon the receipt of dividends or other payments from our operating subsidiaries and other holdings and investments.  In addition, our operating subsidiaries, from time to time, may be subject to restrictions on their ability to make distributions to us, including as a result of restrictive covenants in loan agreements, restrictions on the conversion of local currency into U.S. dollars or other hard currency and other regulatory restrictions.  In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive, ratably, the net assets available to stockholders after payment of all creditors.

 

All of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.  To the extent that additional shares of our common stock are issued, the relative interests of existing stockholders will be diluted.


We have reserved 166,940 shares of common stock for issuance pursuant to the warrants issued to Roth Capital Partners, LLC.


Preferred Stock

 

We are authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, in one or more classes or series within a class as may be determined by our board of directors, who may establish, from time to time, the number of shares to be included in each class or series,  may fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such class or series and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof.  Any preferred stock so issued by the board of  directors may rank senior to the common stock with respect to the payment of dividends or amounts upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of us, or both.  Moreover, under certain circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock or the existence of the unissued preferred stock might tend to discourage or render more difficult a merger or other change of control.

 

No shares of preferred stock are currently outstanding.  The issuance of preferred stock, while providing desirable  flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or of discouraging a third party from acquiring, a majority of our outstanding voting stock.

 

Warrants


In connection with our private placement which closed on July 24, 2008, Roth Capital Partners, LLC, our placement agent, received, as partial compensation, warrants to purchase 166,940 shares of our common stock.  The warrants have a term of three years and are immediately exercisable at $1.824 per share, subject to the usual adjustments for certain corporate events.   The shares underlying the warrants are being included in this registration statement, but none of the warrants have been exercised.

Rule 144

 

The SEC has recently adopted amendments to Rule 144 which became effective on February 15, 2008 and applies to securities acquired both before and after that date.  Under these amendments, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock or warrants for at least six months is entitled to sell their securities provided that (1) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, (2) we are subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements for at least 90 days before the sale and (3) if the sale occurs prior to satisfaction of a one-year holding period, we provide current information at the time of sale.

 

Persons who have beneficially owned restricted shares of our common stock or warrants for at least six months but are our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, are subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

 

1% of the total number of securities of the same class then outstanding, which will equal approximately 286,240 shares immediately after this offering ; or

the average weekly trading volume of such securities during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to such sale.

provided, in each case, that we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale.

 

However, since we anticipate that our shares will be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, which is not an “automated quotation system,” our stockholders will not be able to rely on the market-based volume limitation described in the second bullet above.  If, in the future, our securities are listed on an exchange or quoted on NASDAQ, then our stockholders would be able to rely on the market-based volume limitation.  Unless and until our stock is so listed or quoted, our stockholders can only rely on the percentage based volume limitation described in the first bullet above.

 

Such sales by affiliates must also comply with the manner of sale, current public information and notice provisions of Rule 144.  The selling stockholders will not be governed by the foregoing restrictions when selling their shares pursuant to this prospectus.

 

Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies

 

Historically, the SEC staff has taken the position that Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by companies that are, or previously were, blank check companies, like us.  The SEC has codified and expanded this position in the amendments discussed above by prohibiting the use of Rule 144 for resale of securities issued by any shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or any issuer that has been at any time previously a shell company. The SEC has provided an important exception to this prohibition, however, if the following conditions are met:

 

the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;

the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

 

55

 


 

the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than current reports on Form 8-K; and

the least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current comprehensive disclosure with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

As a result, it is likely that pursuant to Rule 144, our stockholders, who were stockholders of ours prior to the reverse acquisition of Dollar Come, will be able to sell the their shares of our common stock from and after March 31, 2009 (the one year anniversary of our reverse acquisition of Dollar Come) without registration.

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

The selling stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or quoted or in private transactions.  These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices.  The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits Investors;

block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

privately negotiated transactions;

to cover short sales made after the date that this Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC;

broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

a combination of any such methods of sale; and

any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

 

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales.  Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated.  The selling stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.

 

The selling stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Shares owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.

Upon the Company being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of common stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such Selling Stockholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such the shares of common stock were sold, (iv)the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction.  In addition, upon the Company being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of common stock, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with applicable securities law.

 

The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales.  In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.  Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of Securities will be paid by the Selling Stockholder and/or the purchasers.  Each Selling Stockholder has represented and warranted to the Company that it acquired the securities subject to this Registration Statement in the ordinary course of such Selling Stockholder’s business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities such Selling Stockholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities.  

 

Roth Capital Partners, LLC is a registered broker dealer and FINRA member firm and listed as a selling shareholder in this prospectus.  Roth Capital Partners, LLC served as placement agent for our private placement offering which was completed on July 23, 2008, and received, in addition to cash commissions and reimbursement of certain out-of-pocket expenses and counsel fees, warrants to purchase 166,940 shares of our common stock with an exercise price of $1.824 per share.  The registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part includes the shares of common stock underlying the warrants held by Roth Capital Partners, LLC.  


The warrants held by Roth Capital Partners, LLC expire on July 23, 2011.  The 166,940 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of placement agent warrants received by Roth Capital Partners, LLC are restricted from sale, transfer, assignment, pledge or hypothecation or from being the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put, or call transaction that would result in the effective economic disposition of the securities by any person for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, except transfers of the warrants to officers or partners of Roth Capital Partners, LLC as allowed under NASD Rule 2710 (g)(1) and (2).


Roth Capital Partners, LLC has indicated to us its willingness to act as selling agent on behalf of certain of the selling shareholders named in the prospectus under the section titled "Selling Security Holders" that purchased our privately placed securities.  All shares sold, if any, on behalf of selling shareholders by Roth Capital Partners, LLC would be in transactions executed by Roth Capital Partners, LLC on an agency basis and commissions charged to its customers in connection with each transaction shall not exceed a maximum of 5% of the gross proceeds.  Roth Capital Partners, LLC does not have an underwriting agreement with us and/or the selling shareholders and no selling shareholders are required to execute transactions through Roth Capital Partners, LLC.  Further, other than any existing brokerage relationship as customers with Roth Capital Partners, LLC, no selling shareholder has any pre-arranged agreement, written or otherwise, with Roth Capital Partners, LLC to sell their securities through Roth Capital Partners, LLC.


NASD Rule 2710 requires FINRA members firms (unless an exemption applies) to satisfy the filing requirements of Rule 2710 in connection with the resale, on behalf of selling shareholders, of the securities on a principal or agency basis. NASD Notice to Members 88-101 states that in the event a selling shareholder intends to sell any of the shares registered for resale in this prospectus through a member of the FINRA participating in a distribution of our securities, such member is responsible for insuring that a timely filing, if required, is first made with the Corporate Finance Department of FINRA and disclosing to FINRA the following:

 

57

 


 

it intends to take possession of the registered securities or to facilitate the transfer of such certificates;


the complete details of how the selling shareholders' shares are and will be held, including location of the particular accounts;


whether the member firm or any direct or indirect affiliates thereof have entered into, will facilitate or otherwise participate in any type of payment transaction with the selling shareholders, including details regarding any such transactions; and


in the event any of the securities offered by the selling shareholders are sold, transferred, assigned or hypothecated by any selling shareholder in a transaction that directly or indirectly involves a member firm of the NASD or any affiliates thereof, that prior to or at the time of said transaction the member firm will timely file all relevant documents with respect to such transaction(s) with the Corporate Finance Department of the NASD for review.


No FINRA member firm may receive compensation in excess of that allowable under FINRA rules, including Rule 2710, in connection with the resale of the securities by the selling shareholders, which total compensation may not exceed 8%.

 

The Company has advised each Selling Stockholder that it is the view of the SEC that it may not use shares registered on this Registration Statement to cover short sales of common stock made prior to the date on which this Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the SEC.  If a Selling Stockholder uses this prospectus for any sale of the common stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.  The selling stockholders will be responsible to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such selling stockholders in connection with resale of their respective shares under this Registration Statement.

 

The Company is required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, but the Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock.  The Company has agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Summary of significant accounting policies


Goodwill


Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, goodwill is not amortized and is subjected to an annual impairment test which occurs in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year.


Goodwill will be written down only when and if impairment is identified and measured, based on future events and conditions.


Minority interests


Minority interests resulted from the consolidation of 70% owned subsidiary, Tianyuan, where the Company has control over its operation.

Summary of significant accounting policies


Use of estimates


In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  These accounts and estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivable, inventories, deferred income taxes and the estimation on useful lives of property, plant and equipment.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Concentrations of credit risk


Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and other receivables.  As of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, substantially all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were held by major financial institutions located in the PRC, which management believes are of high credit quality.  With respect to other receivables and trade receivables, the Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition.  The Company generally does not require collateral for trade receivables and other receivables and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts of trade receivables and other receivables.


During the reporting periods, customers representing 10% or more of the Company’s consolidated sales are :-

Cash and cash equivalents


Cash and cash equivalents include all cash, deposits in banks and other highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  As of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, almost all the cash and cash equivalents were denominated in Renminbi (“RMB”) and were placed with banks in the PRC.  They are not freely convertible into foreign currencies and the remittance of these funds out of the PRC is subject to exchange control restrictions imposed by the PRC government.  The remaining insignificant balance of cash and cash equivalents were denominated in US dollars.


Restricted cash


Deposits in banks pledged as securities for bills payable that are restricted in use are classified as restricted cash under current assets.

Summary of significant accounting policies (Cont’d)


Allowance of doubtful accounts


The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s assessment of the collectibility of trade receivables and other receivables.  A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the amount of the allowance, the Company considers the historical level of credit losses and applies percentages to aged receivable categories.  The Company makes judgments about the creditworthiness of each customer based on ongoing credit evaluations, and monitors current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future.  If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a larger allowance may be required.


Based on the above assessment, during the reporting years, the management establishes the general provisioning policy to make allowance equivalent to 10% of gross amount of trade receivables and other receivables due over 6-12 months, 25% gross amount of trade receivables and other receivables due over 1-2 years and 50% of gross amount of trade receivables and other receivables due over 2-3 years and 100% of gross amount of trade receivables and other receivables due over 3 years.  Additional specific provision is made against trade receivables aged less than 6 months to the extent which they are considered to be doubtful.


Bad debts are written off when identified.  The Company extends unsecured credit to customers ranging from three to six months in the normal course of business.  The Company does not accrue interest on trade receivables.


Historically, losses from uncollectible accounts have not significantly deviated from the general allowance estimated by the management and no significant additional bad debts have been written off directly to the profit and loss.  This general provisioning policy has not changed in the past since establishment and the management considers that the aforementioned general provisioning policy is adequate and not too excessive and does not expect to change this established policy in the near future.


Inventories


Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value.  Cost is determined on a weighted average basis and includes all expenditures incurred in bringing the goods to the point of sale and putting them in a saleable condition.  In assessing the ultimate realization of inventories, the management makes judgments as to future demand requirements compared to current or committed inventory levels.  Our reserve requirements generally increase as our projected demand requirements; decrease due to market conditions, product life cycle changes.  The Company estimates the demand requirements based on market conditions, forecasts prepared by its customers, sales contracts and orders in hand.


In addition, the Company estimates net realizable value based on intended use, current market value and inventory ageing analyses.  The Company writes down the inventories for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventories and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions.


Based on the above assessment, the Company establishes a general provision to make a 50% provision for inventories aged over 1 year.  As of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, no general provision for inventories were made.


Historically, the actual net realizable value is close to the management estimation.

Construction in progress mainly represents expenditures in respect of the Company’s warehouses and factories under construction.  All direct costs relating to the acquisition or construction of the Company’s warehouses and factories are capitalized as construction in progress.  No depreciation is provided in respect of construction in progress.


Maintenance or repairs are charged to expense as incurred.  Significant improvements and renewals that extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized.  Upon sale or disposition, the applicable amounts of asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the net amount less proceeds from disposal is charged or credited to income.


Land use right


Land use right is stated at cost less accumulated amortization.  Amortization is provided using the straight-line method over the terms of the lease of 50 years obtained from the relevant PRC land authority.


Impairment of long-lived assets


Long-lived assets are tested for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144 and Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion 18, Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock, respectively.  The Company periodically evaluates potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable.  The Company recognizes impairment of long-lives assets and investment in an affiliate in the event that the net book values of such assets exceed the future undiscounted cashflows attributable to such assets.  During the reporting periods, the Company has no identified any indicators that would require testing for impairment.


Revenue recognition


Revenue from sales of the Company’s products is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer at the time of delivery, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured.

Basic and diluted earnings per share


The Company reports basic earnings per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share”.  Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods presented.  The weighted average number of shares of the Company represents the common stock outstanding during the reporting periods.


Recently issued accounting pronouncements


In May 2008, FASB issued SFAS 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. Effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The Board does not expect that this Statement will result in a change in current practice. However, transition provisions have been provided in the unusual circumstance that the application of the provisions of this Statement results in a change in practice. The management is in the process of evaluating the impact that SFAS 162 will have on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.


In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133". SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged.  The management is in the process of evaluating the impact that SFAS 160 will have on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

Income taxes


United States


The Company is incorporated in the United States of America and is subject to United States of America tax law. No provisions for income taxes have been made as the Company has no taxable income for the reporting periods. The applicable income tax rates for the Company for the reporting periods are 34%. The Company has not provided deferred taxed on undistributed earnings of its non-U.S. subsidiaries as of June 30, 2008, as it is the Company’s current policy to reinvest these earnings in non-U.S. operations.


BVI


Dollar Come was incorporated in the BVI and, under the current laws of the BVI, not subject to income taxes.


PRC


Before the implementation of the new enterprise income tax (“EIT”) law (as discussed below), Foreign Invested Enterprises (“FIE”) established in the PRC are generally granted certain tax benefits or holiday by the relevant tax authority.  On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress of China passed the new Corporate Income Tax Law (“EIT Law”), and on November 28, 2007, the State Council of China passed the Implementing Rules for the EIT Law (“Implementing Rules”) which took effect on January 1, 2008. The EIT Law and Implementing Rules impose a unified EIT of 25.0% on all domestic-invested enterprises and FIEs, unless they qualify under certain limited exceptions. Therefore, nearly all FIEs are subject to the new tax rate alongside other domestic businesses rather than benefiting from the old tax laws applicable to FIEs, and its associated preferential tax treatments, beginning January 1, 2008.


Despite these changes, the EIT Law gives the FIEs established before March 16, 2007 (“Old FIEs”), such as our subsidiary Fuxin Hengrui and Xianheng, a five-year grandfather period during which they can continue to enjoy their existing preferential tax treatments. During this five-year grandfather period, the Old FIEs which enjoyed tax rates lower than 25% under the original EIT Law shall gradually increase their EIT rate by 2% per year until the tax rate reaches 25%. In addition, the Old FIEs that are eligible for the “two-year exemption and three-year half reduction” or “five-year exemption and five-year half-reduction” under the original EIT Law, are allowed to remain to enjoy their preference until these holidays expire.


In addition to the changes to the current tax structure, under the EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with “de facto management bodies” within China is considered a resident enterprise and will normally be subject to an EIT of 25.0% on its global income. The Implementing Rules define the term “de facto management bodies” as “an establishment that exercises, in substance, overall management and control over the production, business, personnel, accounting, etc., of a Chinese enterprise.” If the PRC tax authorities subsequently determine that the Company should be classified as a resident enterprise, then the organization’s global income will be subject to PRC income tax of 25.0%.


Under the income tax law and the related implementing rules, FIEs engaging in manufacturing businesses with a term of operation exceeding ten years may, subject to approval from local taxation authorities, be entitled to a two-year tax exemption from PRC EIT starting from the year they become profitable and a 50.0% tax reduction for the three years thereafter.

Income taxes (Cont’d)


As approved by the relevant PRC tax authority, Fuxin Hengrui and Xianheng was entitled to a two-year exemption from EIT followed by a 50.0% tax exemption for the next three years, commencing from the first cumulative profit-making year in the fiscal financial year. The tax holiday of Fuxin Hengrui commenced in 2004. Accordingly, Fuxin Hengrui is entitled to a 50% reduction on EIT tax rate of 12.5% for 2008 and will be subject to an EIT rate of 25% from 2009.  Xianheng’s tax holiday commenced in 2008, therefore, Xianheng is exempted from EIT in 2008 and 2009 and will be subject to a reduced EIT rate of 12.5% from 2010 to 2012.


In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). This interpretation requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” approach. The Company adopted FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. The management evaluated the Company’s tax positions and considered that no additional provision for uncertainty in income taxes is necessary as of June 30, 2008.

Subsequent events


(a)

Securities Purchase Agreement


On July 24, 2008, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement") with certain accredited investors (collectively, the "Investors"). Under the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Investors 3,338,790 new shares of the Company’s common stock (the "Shares"), representing approximately 11.8% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company on a fully-diluted basis as of and immediately after consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $5 million (the "Purchase Price"), or $1.52 per share.


(b)

Registration Rights Agreement


On July 24, 2008, as a condition to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company and the Investors also entered into a registration rights agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company is obligated to register the Shares within a pre-defined period. Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is obligated to file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 on Form S-1 or on Form S-3 (if the Company is eligible) covering the resale of the Shares and any other shares of common stock issued to the Investors under the Securities Purchase Agreement. If the Company does not file the required registration statements in a timely manner, or if the Company fails to file any pre-effective amendments to such registration statements and respond in writing to the comments made by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") within a pre-defined period, then the Investors are entitled to liquidated damages equal to 1.0% of the aggregate contribution of each Investor in any 30-day period up to a maximum of 10% of the aggregate amount of the Purchase Price. The Registration Rights Agreement also gives the Investors customary piggyback registration rights.

The Company accounts for registration payment arrangement in accordance with FASB Staff Position EITF 00-19-2, Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements ("FSP EITF 00-19-2") which provides guidance on the accounting for registration payment arrangements. FSP EITF 00-19-2 specifies that the contingent obligation to make future payments or otherwise transfer consideration under a registration payment arrangement, whether issued as a separate agreement or included as a provision of a financial instrument or other agreement, should be separately recognized and measured in accordance with FASB Statement No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies. A registration payment arrangement is defined in FSP EITF 00-19-2 as an arrangement with both of the following characteristics : (1) the arrangement specifies that the issuer will endeavor (a) to file a registration statement for the resale of specified financial instruments and/or for the resale of equity shares that are issuable upon exercise or conversion of specified financial instruments and for that registration statement to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within a specified grace period, and/or (b) to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement for a specified period of time (or in perpetuity); and (2) the arrangement requires the issuer to transfer consideration to the counterparty if the registration statement for the resale of the financial instrument or instruments subject to the arrangement is not declared effective or if effectiveness of the registration statement is not maintained.

On July 24, 2008, the Company entered into separate lock-up agreements (the "Lock-up Agreements") with the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of the Company (each a "Holder"), pursuant to which each Holder agreed that, except as set forth in the Lock-up Agreement, he will not offer, pledge, encumber, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, or announce the offering of, any of their shares of the Company’s common stock (including any securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, or representing the rights to receive, the Company’s common stock) or engage in any short sales with respect to any security of the Company.


(d)

Holdback Escrow Agreement


On July 24, 2008, the Company entered into a holdback escrow agreement (the "Holdback Escrow Agreement") with the Investors and Securities Transfer Corporation, as escrow agent ("STC"), pursuant to which the Company agreed that an aggregate of $500,000 of the Purchase Price (the "Holdback Amount") will be deposited at the closing of the offering with STC and be distributed upon the satisfaction of two of the Company's covenants set forth in the Securities Purchase Agreement.


Pursuant to the Holdback Escrow Agreement, 50% of the Holdback Amount will be released to the Company upon the Company’s satisfaction of the covenant regarding the Qualified Board and 50% of the Holdback Amount will be released to the Company upon the Company’s satisfaction of the covenant regarding the Qualified CFO.

(e)

Make Good Escrow Agreement


Also in connection with the entry into the Securities Purchase Agreement, on July 24, 2008, the Company entered into a make good escrow agreement (the "Make Good Escrow Agreement") with Win-Win Global Investments, Inc. (the "Pledgor"), the Investors, Roth Capital Partners, LLC ("Roth") and STC, pursuant to which the Pledgor agreed to certain "make good" provisions in the event that the Company does not meet certain income thresholds for fiscal years 2008 and/or 2009 discussed in the Securities Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the Make Good Escrow Agreement, the Pledgor established an escrow account and delivered to STC certificates evidencing 1,669,398 shares of the Company’s common stock held by the Pledgor (the "Make Good Shares") along with blank stock powers, to be held for the benefit of the Investors. The Pledgor agreed that if the after tax net income (the "ATNI") for the Company’s 2008 fiscal year is less than $10,000,000 or the ATNI for the Company’s 2009 fiscal year is less than $14,000,000 (after the exclusion of certain items from the calculation), then, in each case, the Pledgor will transfer to the Investors, on a pro rata basis, 50% of the Make Good Shares within 10 business days after the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K is filed for the respective fiscal year. In such event, the Pledgor’s obligation to transfer the Make Good Shares continues to apply to each of the Investors, even if an Investor has transferred or sold all or any portion of its securities, and each of the Investors shall have the right to assign its rights to receive a pro rata portion of the Make Good Shares in conjunction with negotiated sales or transfers of any of its securities. If the ATNI for the Company’s 2008 fiscal year is no less than $10,000,000 (after the exclusion of certain items from the calculation), 50% of the Make Good Shares will be released to the Pledgor. If the ATNI for the Company’s 2009 fiscal year is no less than $14,000,000 (after the exclusion of certain items from the calculation), then the remaining 50% of the Make Good Shares will be released to the Pledgor. The parties also agreed that for purposes of determining the ATNI under the Securities Purchase Agreement, the release of the Make Good Shares to the Investors or the Pledgor as a result of the operation of the Make Good Agreement shall not be deemed to be an expense, charge, or other deduction from revenues even though GAAP may require contrary treatment. The Make Good Escrow Agreement will terminate upon the distribution of all the Make Good Shares.

Subsequent events (cont’d)


(f)

Roth Capital Partners, LLC and WLT Brothers Capital, Inc. acted as the Company’s placement agents ("Placement Agents") in connection with the offering of the Shares. As compensation for their services, the Placement Agents received a cash fee equal to $355,247.37, representing 7% of the gross proceeds received from the sale of the Shares. Roth also received a warrant to purchase 166,940 shares of common stock of the Company, representing 5% of the Shares (the "Warrant"). The Warrant has a term of three years, is exercisable immediately on issuance and has an exercise price of $1.824.

The fair value of the warrants was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. In calculating the fair value of the warrants, management used the closing price of the common stock on July 24, 2008, of $3.75 per share, plus the flowing assumptions :

Risk free interest rate (%) 2.92%
   
Dividend yield (%) 0.00%
   
Expected life of warrant grants (years) 3 years
   
Expected volatility of warrant grants (%) [214%]

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Dollar Come Investments Limited

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Dollar Come Investments Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income/(deficit), stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2007.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Corporate information and reorganization (Cont’d)

 

Fuxin Hengrui was incorporated in the PRC on September 18, 2002 with registered capital of $5,030,000 (RMB41,600,000, which are not divided into shares) and engaged in manufacture and distribution of float glasses. Before December 27, 2004, 65% and 35% equity interest of Fuxin Hengrui was held by a PRC Company and a United States Company (the “U.S. Company”) respectively.  On December 27, 2004, Dollar Come acquired 54.15% equity interest of Fuxin Hengrui from the PRC Company and the entire 35% equity interest of Fuxin Hengrui from the U.S. Company at a total consideration of $7,750,603 same as the attributable share of fair value of acquired identifiable net assets of Fuxin Hengrui. The funding of the consideration was contributed by Madam Tan. On the same date, Mr. Song Lihui, who is a director of Fuxin Hengrui, acquired the remaining 10.85% equity interest of Fuxin Hengrui from the PRC Company.  On June 2, 2005, Mr. Song Lihui sold his entire 10.85% equity interest to Advance Sun Group Limited (“Advance Sun”), which was incorporated in BVI.  Following the disposal, Fuxin Hengrui has been changed from a Sino-Foreign Enterprises into a Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprises (“WFOE”). On January 1, 2007, Dollar Come acquired 10.85% equity interest of Fuxin Hengrui from Advance Sun at a total consideration of $995,400 and thereafter Fuxin Hengrui became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dollar Come.

 

Xianheng was incorporated in the PRC on April 1, 2004 with registered capital of $60,500 (RMB500,000, which are not divided into shares) of which 60% equity interest was held by Madam Tan and the remaining 40% equity interest was held by a PRC Company in which Madam Tan Lin was a substantial stockholder. On October 17, 2005, Dollar Come and another PRC Company acquired 25% and 35% equity interest of Xianheng from Madam Tan respectively. On September 21, 2006, Fuxin Hengrui acquired 75% equity interest of Xianheng from two independent legal entities. Following the acquisition of 10.85% equity interest of Fuxin Hengrui by Dollar Come on January 1, 2007 as mentioned in the previous paragraph, the effective equity interest of Xianheng held by Dollar Come was 100%. During the reporting periods, Xianheng did not have any business activities.

 

On May 17, 2006, Fuxin Hengrui together with one of the directors of Fuxin Hengrui established Tianyuan in the PRC with registered capital of $1,251,000 (RMB10 million, which are not dividend into shares).  Pursuant to a special resolution passed on October 12, 2007, the registered capital of Tianyuan was reduced from $1,251,000 to $375,000 and the application was still in progress.  On May 16, 2006, according to the payment schedule, Fuxin Hengrui contributed of $131,355 to its registered capital representing 35% equity interest thereon.  Tianyuan is principally engaged in manufacturing of coal water mixture to assess energy alternative for industrial boiler.

Goodwill will be written down only when and if impairment is identified and measured, based on future events and conditions.

Minority interests resulted from the consolidation of 89.15% and 91.86% owned subsidiaries, Fuxin Hengrui and Xianheng respectively, where the Company has control over their operations.

 

Investment in an unconsolidated affiliate

 

In the fiscal year 2007, the Company accounts for the 35% investment in Tianyuan (an investment in which the Company exercises significant influence but does not control) using the equity method, under which the share of Tianyuan’s net loss is recognized in the period in which it is incurred by Tianyuan.  As of December 31, 2007, the investment in an unconsolidated affiliate of $55,105 (RMB459,045) represents attributable share of the underlying net assets of Tianyuan.

Use of estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  These accounts and estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivable, inventories, deferred income taxes, provision for warranty and the estimation on useful lives of property, plant and equipment.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Concentrations of credit risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and other receivables.  As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, substantially all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were held by major financial institutions located in the PRC, which management believes are of high credit quality.  With respect to other receivables and trade receivables, the Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition.  The Company generally does not require collateral for trade receivables and other receivables and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts of trade receivables and other receivables.

 

During the reporting periods, customers representing 10% or more of the Company’s consolidated sales are :-

Cash and cash equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash, deposits in banks and other highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, almost all the cash and cash equivalents were denominated in Renminbi (“RMB”) and were placed with banks in the PRC.  They are not freely convertible into foreign currencies and the remittance of these funds out of the PRC is subject to exchange control restrictions imposed by the PRC government.  The remaining insignificant balance of cash and cash equivalents were denominated in US dollars.

 

Restricted Cash

 

Deposits in banks pledged as securities for bills payable (note 8) that are restricted in use are classified as restricted cash under current assets.

Allowance of doubtful accounts

 

The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s assessment of the collectibility of trade receivables and other receivables.  A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the amount of the allowance, the Company considers the historical level of credit losses and applies percentages to aged receivable categories.  The Company makes judgments about the creditworthiness of each customer based on ongoing credit evaluations, and monitors current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future.  If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a larger allowance may be required.

 

Based on the above assessment, during the reporting years, the management establishes the general provisioning policy to make allowance equivalent to 10% of gross amount of trade receivables and other receivables due over 6-12 months, 25% gross amount of trade receivables and other receivables due over 1-2 years and 50% of gross amount of trade receivables and other receivables due over 2-3 years and 100% of gross amount of trade receivables and other receivables due over 3 years.  Additional specific provision is made against trade receivables aged less than 6 months to the extent which they are considered to be doubtful.

 

Bad debts are written off when identified.  The Company extends unsecured credit to customers ranging from three to six months in the normal course of business.  The Company does not accrue interest on trade receivables.

 

Historically, losses from uncollectible accounts have not significantly deviated from the general allowance estimated by management and no significant additional bad debts have been written off directly to the profit and loss.  This general provisioning policy has not changed in the past since establishment and management considers that the aforementioned general provisioning policy is adequate and not too excessive and does not expect to change this established policy in the near future.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value.  Cost is determined on a weighted average basis and includes all expenditures incurred in bringing the goods to the point of sale and putting them in a saleable condition.  In assessing the ultimate realization of inventories, management makes judgments as to future demand requirements compared to current or committed inventory levels.  The reserve requirements generally increase as the projected demand requirements, decrease due to market conditions, product life cycle changes.  The Company estimates the demand requirements based on market conditions, forecasts prepared by its customers, sales contracts and orders in hand.

 

In addition, the Company estimates net realizable value based on intended use, current market value and inventory ageing analyses.  The Company writes down the inventories for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventories and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions.

 

Based on the above assessment, the Company establishes a general provision of 50% for inventories aged over 1 year.  As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, no general provision for inventories were provided.

 

Historically, the actual net realizable value is close to the management estimation.

Maintenance or repairs are charged to expense as incurred.  Significant improvements and renewals that extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized.  Upon sale or disposition, the applicable amounts of asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the net amount less proceeds from disposal is charged or credited to income.

 

Land use right

 

Land use right is stated at cost less accumulated amortization.  Amortization is provided using the straight-line method over the terms of the lease of 50 years obtained from the relevant PRC land authority.

 

Impairment of long-lived assets

 

Long-lived assets are tested for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144 and Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion 18, Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock, respectively.  The Company periodically evaluates potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable.  The Company recognizes impairment of long-lives assets and investment in an affiliate in the event that the net book values of such assets exceed the future undiscounted cashflows attributable to such assets.  During the reporting periods, the Company has not identified any indicators that would require testing for impairment.

 

Revenue recognition

 

Revenue from sales of the Company’s products is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured.

Government grant income represents the cash receipt from the relevant government authorities for technical development.  Government grant is recognized as income at the time when the approval documents are obtained from the relevant government authorities and when they are received.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes pursuant to SFAS No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes”.  Under the asset and liability method of SFAS 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and loss carryforwards and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

 

Off-balance sheet arrangements

Foreign currency translation

 

The functional currency of the Company is RMB and RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies.  The Company maintains its financial statements in the functional currency.  Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date.  Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchanges rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction.  Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods.

 

For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the Company which are prepared using the functional currency have been translated into United States dollars.  Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates and stockholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates.  Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign exchange adjustment to other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity.  The exchange rates in effect at December 31, 2007 and 2006 were RMB1 for $0.1371 and $0.1282 respectively.  There is no significant fluctuation in exchange rate for the conversion of RMB to US dollars after the balance sheet date.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade and other receivables, dividend payable, trade, bills and other payables approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of such instruments.  The carrying amounts of bank borrowings approximate their fair values because the applicable interest rates approximate current market rates.

 

It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, price or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

 

In respect of foreign currency risk, the Company is exposed to this risk arising from import purchase transactions and recognized trade payables as they will affect the future operating results of the Company.  The Company did not have any hedging transactions during the reporting periods.  As the functional currency of the Company is RMB, the exchange difference on translation to US dollars for reporting purpose is taken to other comprehensive income.

 

Basic and diluted earnings/(loss) per share

 

The Company reports basic earnings/(loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share”.  Basic earnings/(loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods presented.  The weighted average number of shares of the Company represents the common stock outstanding during the reporting periods.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

 

In July 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”.  This interpretation requires that the entity 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 technology merits of the position.  The provisions of FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings.  The Company has adopted FIN 48 effective from January 1, 2007 and considers that it has no material impact on these consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”).  SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value.  Entities that elect the fair value option will report unrealized gains and losses in earnings at each subsequent reporting date.  The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis, with few exceptions.  SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar assets and liabilities.  The requirements of SFAS 159 are effective for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008.  The Company is in the process of evaluating this standard and therefore have not yet determined the impact that SFAS 159 will have on our financial statements upon adoption.

 

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160 “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements-an amendment of ARB No. 51”. SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. The guidance will become effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008. The management is in the process of evaluating the impact that SFAS 160 will have on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

 

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised) “Business Combinations”. SFAS 141 (Revised) establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. The statement also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The guidance will become effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008. The management is in the process of evaluating the impact that SFAS 141 (Revised) will have on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133". SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged.  The management is in the process of evaluating the impact that SFAS 160 will have on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

PRC

 

Corporate income tax (“CIT”) to the subsidiaries of the Company in the PRC is charged at 33%, of which 30% is for national tax and 3% for local tax, of the assessable profits.  As approved by the relevant tax authority in the PRC, Fuxin Hengrui was entitled to two years’ exemption, from the first profit making calendar year of operations after offset of accumulated taxable losses, followed by 50% tax reduction for the immediate next three calendar years (“tax holiday”). Fuxin Hengrui has elected not to commence the entitlement of tax holiday in the first profit making fiscal financial year of 2003 and thus had current tax payable in the prior period.  The tax holiday of Fuxin Hengrui commenced in the fiscal year 2004.  Accordingly, Fuxin Hengrui will be exempted from CIT for 2004 and 2005 and thereafter entitled to a 50% reduction on CIT tax rate at 16.5% for 2006 and 2007 and 12.5% for 2008.

Subsequent events

 

(a)

On March 31, 2008, a reverse acquisition was completed between the Company, all of the Company’s stockholders and Nevstar Corporation (“Nevstar”), a US Public Corporation with its common stock quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) in the United States, whereby Nevstar issued to the stockholders of the Company 23,751,710 news shares of its common stock in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company, and the Company thereby became a wholly owned subsidiary of Nevstar and the stockholders of the Company became the controlling stockholders of Nevstar.

 

Upon consummation of the above reverse takeover transaction (“RTO”) or share exchange transaction, recapitalization accounting treatment which is same as reverse takeover accounting treatment under purchase method is adopted for the preparation of Nevstar’s consolidated financial statements with the Company as the accounting acquirer and Nevstar as the accounting acquired party.  It means that the assets and liabilities and operations of the Company will become the assets and liabilities and operations of Nevstar with no adjustment to the historical basis of the assets and liabilities of the Company and operations consolidated.

 

On March 31, 2008, Mr. Song Lihui was appointed as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Nevstar effective as of the closing of the RTO.

 

(b)

On January 16, 2008 (“Date of Acquisition”), the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Fuxin Hungrui, entered into an agreement with Madam Tan to acquire her 35% equity interest in Tianyuan at a consideration of $143,955 (RMB 1.05 million).  Upon completion of the transaction, Tianyuan is considered as a subsidiary of the Company as Dollar Come obtained control over it through its 70% shareholding in total.  The remaining 30% equity interest is held by an independent third party.

 

The Company’s investment in Tianyuan will include goodwill of $81,020 identified on acquisition, which represents the excess of the purchase price of $143,955 over the attributable share (that is 35%) of fair value of acquired identifiable net assets of Tianyuan amounted to $62,935.  Goodwill is not amortized and will be written down only when and if impairment is identified and measured, based on future events and conditions.

Item 14.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

Our Articles of Incorporation state that no director shall be liable to the company or any of its stockholders for monetary damages for acts or omissions by the director in his or her capacity as a director to the fullest extent permitted under Nevada law, except generally with respect to (i) a breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Company or our stockholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) liability which may be specifically defined by law, or (iv) a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.  In addition, our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that we shall indemnify our directors to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law and that we may, if and to the extent authorized by the board of directors, so indemnify our officers and any other person whom we have the power to  indemnify against liability, reasonable expense or other matter whatsoever.

 

Insofar as indemnification by us for liabilities arising under the Exchange Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to provisions of the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification by such director, officer or controlling person of us in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being offered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Exchange Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

At the present time, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving a director, officer, employee or other agent of ours in which indemnification would be required or permitted.  We are not aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding which may result in a claim for such indemnification.

 

Item 15.  Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

 

On July 24, 2008, we sold 3,338,790 shares of our common stock to 15 investors at $1.52 per share for a total of $5.07 million pursuant to a securities purchase agreement dated July 24, 2008.  The issuance of our shares to these investors was made in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for the offer and sale of securities not involving a public offering and Regulation D promulgated thereunder.  

 

II-2

 


 

On July 24, 2008, we issued to New Fortress Group Limited 283,406 shares of our common stock pursuant to an advisory agreement between the Company and Haoaide. Haoaide assigned its rights under the agreement to New Fortress Group Limited. The shares were issued in reliance on the Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

 

On July 24, 2008, we issued to Roth warrants for the purchase of 166,940 shares of our common stock as a partial consideration for its services in connection with the private placement transaction described above. The warrants were issued in reliance on the Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

On March 31, 2008, we issued 23,751,710 shares of our common stock to stockholders of Dollar Come in exchange for 100 shares of common stock of Dollar Come, which represented all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Dollar Come. No cash or other assets of the Company, other than the 100 shares of Dollar Come stock, were paid to, or received by us, in connection with the share exchange. The number of our shares issued to the stockholders of Dollar Come was determined by the parties in arms length negotiations which focused on the relative ownership percentages of the parties post-transaction rather than a fixed or ascribed per share value because the primary purpose of the exchange transaction was to effect a transfer of a controlling interest in our stock to the stockholders of Dollar Come. Since we were a shell company with no assets and virtually no operations, the exchange effectively represented a recapitalization of the combined enterprise and no meaningful per share value can be ascribed to the shares of our stock issued to the stockholders of Dollar Come. For purpose of the disclosure required under Part II, Item 15 of this registration statement only, we have calculated the per share price of the common stock issued to shareholders of Dollar Come as $0.01, which is the par value of our common stock. We used par value for the per share price because the net asset deficit of the Company as of June 30, 2007 was $37,919 as reported in our annual report on Form 10-KSB filed on September 14, 2007. We caution readers that this calculation of per share value does not reflect actual cash or other consideration received by us. The issuance of our shares to these individuals was made in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for the offer and sale of securities not involving a public offering and regulation S promulgated thereunder.

On November 17, 2006, we sold to HFI 723,641 shares of our common stock for $217,092.30 at $.30 per share.  The transaction was effected pursuant o the terms of a stock purchase agreement entered into by our Company and HFI on November 17, 2006. The issuance was effected without registration in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

 

On November 17, 2006, we entered into a settlement and stock issuance agreement with W/F, pursuant to which we paid to W/F the amount of $100,000 and issued to W/F 107,000 shares of our common stock, at a price of $3.76 per share, in settlement of our $501,945.66 debt obligation to W/F.

 

On October 11, 2005, pursuant to the terms of a stock purchase agreement, we sold 75,000,000 shares of our common stock to HFI at a price of $0.001 per share for an aggregate  purchase price of $75,000.  The issuance was effected without registration in reliance upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

 

In instances described above where we issued securities in reliance upon Regulation D, we relied upon Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act.  These stockholders who received the securities in such instances made representations that (a) the stockholder is acquiring the securities for his, her or its own account for investment and not for the account of any other person and not with a view to or for distribution, assignment or resale in connection with any distribution within the meaning of the Securities Act, (b) the stockholder agrees not to sell or otherwise transfer the purchased shares unless they are registered under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or an exemption or exemptions from such registration are available, (c) the stockholder has knowledge and experience in financial and business matters such that he, she or it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in us, (d) the stockholder had access to all of our documents, records, and books pertaining to the investment and was provided the opportunity ask questions and receive answers regarding the terms and conditions of the offering and to obtain any additional information which we possessed or were able to acquire without unreasonable effort and expense, and (e) the stockholder has no need for the liquidity in its investment in us and could afford the complete loss of such investment.  Management made the determination that the investors in instances where we relied on Regulation D are accredited investors (as defined in Regulation D) based upon management’s inquiry into their sophistication and net worth.  In addition, there was no general solicitation or advertising for securities issued in reliance upon Regulation D.

 

In instances described above where we indicate that we relied upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act in issuing securities, our reliance was based upon the following factors: (a) the issuance of the securities was an isolated private transaction by us which did not involve a public offering; (b) there were only a limited number of offerees; (c) there were no subsequent or contemporaneous public offerings of the securities by us; (d) the securities were not broken down into smaller denominations; and (e) the negotiations for the sale of the stock took place directly between the offeree and us.

 

II-3

 


 

In instances described above where we indicate that we relied upon Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act in issuing securities, our reliance was based upon the following factors (a) each subscriber was neither a U.S. person nor acquiring the shares for the account or benefit of any U.S. person, (b) each subscriber agreed not to offer or sell the shares (including any pre-arrangement for a purchase by a U.S. person or other person in the United States) directly or indirectly, in the United States or to any natural person who is a resident of the United States or to any other U.S. person as defined in Regulation S unless registered under the Securities Act and all applicable state laws or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and similar state laws is available, (c) each subscriber made his, her or its subscription from the subscriber’s residence or offices at an address outside of the United States and (d) each subscriber or the subscriber’s advisor has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that the subscriber is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of, and protecting his interests in connection with an investment in us.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS

 

(A) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

 

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

 

(a) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

 

(b) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high and of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement; and

 

(c) To include any additional or changed material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement;

 

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(B) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(C) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
