Item 8.01. Other Events.
Golden Elephant Glass Technology, Inc. (the "Company") recently implemented a maintenance program for its float glass production line which currently has annual production capacity of 500 tons. The maintenance program will involve performing routine maintenance and making required mechanical and technological upgrades to the Companys manufacturing facilities. During the maintenance period, all operations of the production line and all manufacturing of float glass products will be suspended. The Company will meet existing its sales orders for float glass products through subcontracting arrangements and it expects a significant reduction in new sales of float glass and float glass products.
Managements decision to implement the maintenance program now is largely due to general global economic conditions and cash flow shortage. In recent months, the price of float glass has decreased and the price for raw materials has increased, which has led to higher production costs and lower profit margin. Management believes that implementing the maintenance program now, at a time when float glass prices and profit margins are depressed, is advantageous because the negative economic impact of suspended operations and lost sales revenue is most effectively mitigated and absorbed.
