YI WAN GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
Note 1 - Organization and Description of Business

Yi Wan Group, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida in the United States in May 1999. Yi Wan Group, Inc. is authorized to issue 50,000,000 shares of no par value common stock and 20,000,000 shares of no par value preferred stock. The Company’s TELECOMMUNICATIONS, HOTEL and QINYANG subsidiaries are incorporated under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (PRC).

The Company’s subsidiaries are classified as Foreign Invested Enterprises (FIE) in the PRC and are subject to the FIE laws of the PRC. The HOTEL and QINYANG are Foreign Invested Enterprise Joint Ventures, known as FIEJV or Sino-foreign joint venture, and TELECOMMUNICATIONS is a Wholly Foreign Owned Enterprise company or WFOE. All three of these companies are Chinese registered limited liability companies, with legal structures similar to regular corporations and limited liability companies organized under state laws in the United States. The respective Articles of Association for these FIE subsidiaries provide a 30-year term for the HOTEL and QINYANG companies and 15 years for the TELECOMMUNICATIONS.

The People’s Republic of China (PRC) regulations prohibit direct foreign ownership of business entities providing food and restaurant services in the PRC in which certain licenses are required for the provision of such services. The Company and its subsidiaries are foreign or foreign invested enterprises under PRC law and accordingly are ineligible for a license to operate restaurants and food services. In order to expand the Company’s restaurant and food services and still be in compliance with these regulations, in July 2004, the Company established YI WAN BEIJING Hotel Management Co., Ltd. (YI WAN BEIJING), a variable interest entity, through two designated shareholders (Mr. Cheng Wan Ming is the Company’s president and Chairman of the Board and Mr. Chen Wanqing is a member of the Board of Directors of the Company) who are PRC citizens and legally own YI WAN BEIJING (“Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders”) to operate the restaurant business. Pursuant to an Equity Trust Agreement, the Company transferred RMB 100,000 to the YI WAN BEIJING (the” Equity Interests”) in trust for the benefit of the Company. The Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders have agreed to not sell, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of the Equity Interests. Any such transfer will result in a breach of the Equity Trust Agreement and the Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders will be required to transfer the Equity Interest to distribute any and all dividends, distributions or other payments received from YI WAN BEIJING with respect to the Equity Interest to the Company. Finally, the Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders granted irrevocable proxies to two directors of the Company to their ownership interest in YI WAN BEIJING. The irrevocable proxies further provide that if such two directors cease to be employees of the Company, the Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders agree to immediately terminate the proxy and to grant a proxy to another person designated by the Company. Yi Wan Group, Inc is the primary beneficiary of YI WAN BEIJING business operations and qualifies to be consolidated under FIN 46(R).

Note 2 - Basis of presentation

The reporting entity

Basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements represent the activities of Yi Wan Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries and variable interest entity. The consolidated financial statements of YWG include its subsidiaries HOTEL, TELECOMMUNICATIONS and QINYANG and its variable interest entity YI WAN BEIJING. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 46(R), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51 (FIN No. 46(R)), which requires the consolidation of certain variable interest entities. FIN No. 46(R) is effective for all nonpublic entities immediately to variable interest entities or potential variable interest entities created after December 31, 2003. The Company has elected to apply FIN 46(R) and consolidate its variable interest entity since its inception.

Reclassifications

Certain comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period’s presentation.

Note 3 - Summary of significant accounting policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management believes that the estimates utilized in preparing its consolidated financial statements are reasonable and prudent. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
 
YI WAN GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 

Note 3 - Summary of significant accounting policies, (continued)

Foreign currency translation

The reporting currency of YWG is the U.S. dollar. The Company's foreign subsidiaries use their local currency, Renminbi, as their functional currency. Results of operations and cash flow are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and assets and liabilities are translated at the end of period exchange rates. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of shareholders' equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations of the subsidiaries as incurred. These amounts are not material to the financial statements.

Revenue recognition

The HOTEL’s, QINYANG’s and YI WAN BEIJING’s revenues are recognized when the rooms are occupied or when the guests utilize the services of the hotel and restaurant.

The TELECOMMUNICATIONS recognizes its revenue when the risk of loss for the product sold passes to the customers, which is when goods are installed at the customers’ premises and testing of the product is completed and accepted by the customers.

Note 4 - Consolidated financial statements and condensed footnotes

The interim consolidated financial statements presented herein have been prepared by the Company and include the unaudited accounts of YWG and its subsidiaries TELECOMMUNICATIONS, HOTEL, and QINYANG and its variable interest entity YI WAN BEIJING. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. YWG believes the disclosures made are adequate to ensure the information presented is not misleading. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with YWG’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004 and notes thereto included in YWG’s Form 10-K which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2005.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2005 and the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of an entire year of performance because of the impact of seasonal and short-term variations.

Note 7 - Intangible assets

All land in the People’s Republic of China is owned by the government and cannot be sold to any individual or company. However, the government grants the user a “land use right” (the Right) to use the land. The HOTEL has purchased the Right to use the land for 40 years from the government for a fee in the amount of $1,570,000. The HOTEL’s Right (Land Use Certificate) is registered under the name of one of the joint venture partners, Shun’ao Industry & Commerce Company, Ltd. The HOTEL is in the process of applying for the name change of the Right, which has not been finalized as of the date of this report.

QINYANG has obtained its land use rights from its 20% joint venture partner as a capital contribution in the amount of approximately $228,000 and purchased the other Right for the amount of approximately $88,000. The Rights to use the land are for 30 years.

The Rights for both hotels have been classified as an intangible asset on the accompanying financial statements and are being amortized using the straight-line method over the life of the Rights. Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 amounted to $12,469 and $12,469, respectively.

In March 1995, one of the shareholders of YWG purchased the land use right for 50 years where the TELECOMMUNICATIONS’ operating facilities are located. Neither the title nor the Right has been transferred to TELECOMMUNICATIONS, nor is TELECOMMUNICATIONS being charged for using the land. However, the owner has assigned the Right to TELECOMMUNICATIONS for the remaining years. The original cost of the land use right amounted to $277,800 and is being recognized as an expense annually and as a capital contribution. The Right is being amortized over 50 years and the expense for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 amounted to $1,392 and $1,391, respectively.

The Company has reclassified this amount as non-current since no payment terms or interest terms have been determined.

There were no contributions for the QINYANG and YI WAN BEIJING employees due to their non-permanent status. For the three months ended March 31, 2005, YWG made pension contributions in the amount of $11,845.

Note 16 - YI WAN BEIJING operations

The People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) regulations prohibit direct foreign ownership of business entities providing food and restaurant services in the PRC which certain licenses are required for the provision of such services. The Company and its subsidiaries are foreign or foreign invested enterprises under PRC law and accordingly are ineligible for a license to operate restaurants and food services. In order to expand our restaurant and food services and still be in compliance with these regulations, in July 2004, the Company established YI WAN BEIJING Restaurants Management Ltd. (“YI WAN BEIJING”), a variable interest entity through two persons who are PRC citizens and who each legally owned 50% of YI WAN BEIJING (“YI WAN BEIJING Interest Holders”) to operate our restaurant business. Pursuant to an Equity Trust Agreement, the Company transferred RMB 100,000 to the YI WAN BEIJING Interest Holders which was used to form and capitalize YI WAN BEIJING. The Equity Trust Agreement provides that the Trustees are to hold the equity interest in YI WAN BEIJING (the “Equity Interests”) in trust for the benefit of Yi Wan Group, Inc. The YI WAN BEIJING Interest Holders have agreed to not sell, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of the Equity Interests. Any such transfer will result in a breach of the Equity Trust Agreement and the YI WAN BEIJING Interest Holders will be required to transfer the Equity Interest to the Company. Further the YI WAN BEIJING Interest Holders have agreed to promptly distribute any and all dividends, distributions or other payments received from YI WAN BEIJING with respect to the Equity Interest to the Company. Finally, the YI WAN BEIJING Interest Holders granted irrevocable proxies to two directors of the Company to exercise all voting rights such YI WAN BEIJING Interest Holders have with respect to their ownership interest in YI WAN BEIJING. The irrevocable proxies further provides that if such two directors cease to be an employee of the Company, the YI WAN BEIJING Interest Holders agree to immediately terminate the proxy and to grant a proxy to another person designated by the Company.

Our variable interest entity, YI WAN BEIJING, a fast food restaurant operation, suffered losses since its opening due to insufficient sales volume. The Company decided to sell its operating location and entered into an agreement with Beijing Le Jie Shi Restaurant limited (LE JIE SHI) on March 23, 2005. The agreement specified that YI WAN BEIJING agreed to sell its operating location to LE JIE SHI for $9,680. The transaction included the operating location, all air conditioning equipment, certain restaurant equipment and inventory. LE JIE SHI deposited $6,050 on March 23, 2005 with the remaining balance of $3,630 to be paid when the agreement is finalized in April 2005. In addition, the lessor of the operating location agreed to terminate the lease agreement with YI WAN BEJING and entered into a new lease agreement with LE JIE SHI. As a result of the transaction, the Company recorded a loss of $53,940 which is included in the accompanying consolidated statements. The loss composed of leasehold improvements of $50,134, equipment of $3,076 and inventory of $730.

YI WAN BEIJING is currently seeking a suitable new operating location in Beijing City for the “Diyikou” brand fast-food restaurant.

The Company will be opening a new restaurant at the end of May 2005 in Zheng Zhou City.

GENERAL

Yi Wan Group operates two lines of businesses, a hotel & restaurant business and a telecommunications business, through ownership of three Chinese business entities. We own a 90% interest in Jiaozuo Yi Wan Hotel Company Limited (“JIAZUO”), an 80% interest in Qinyang Yi Wan Hotel Company Limited (“QINYANG”) and a 100% interest in Shun De Yi Wan Communications Equipment Plant Co., Ltd.

Our hotel & restaurant business consists of the operation and management of an upscale hotel conference and entertainment facility in Jiaozuo City, Henan province and in the City of Qinyang. This business line focuses on providing lodging, food and beverage, entertainment, and conference and meeting products and services.

Our telecommunications business focuses on designing and manufacturing telephone network switching component parts for use in telephone main distribution frames; and manufacturing and selling assembled telephone main distribution frames. A telephone main distribution frame connects a company's or an individual's internal telephone system to the telephone company's external lines. Our telecommunications business' initial design and production efforts focused on developing analog switching component parts and the manufacture of a series of analog main distribution frames. Recent design and production efforts have expanded to include digital switching component parts and the manufacture of digital telephone main distribution frames.

In order to expand our restaurant and food services and still be in compliance with the regulations of the People's Republic of China ("PRC") with respect to restaurant services, in July 2004, we established Yi Wan Beijing Hotel Management Co. Ltd. ("YI WAN BEIJING"), a variable interest entity through two persons who are PRC citizens and who each legally owned 50% of Yi Wan Beijing ("Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders") to operate our restaurant business. Pursuant to an Equity Trust Agreement, we transferred RMB 100,000 to the Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders that was used to form and capitalize Yi Wan Beijing. The Equity Trust Agreement provides that the Trustees are to hold the equity interest in Yi Wan Beijing (the "Equity Interests") in trust for the benefit of Yi Wan Group, Inc. The Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders have agreed to not sell, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of the Equity Interests. Any such transfer will result in a breach of the Equity Trust Agreement and the Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders will be required to transfer the Equity Interest to the Company. Further, the Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders have agreed to promptly distribute any and all dividends, distributions or other payments received from Yi Wan Beijing with respect to the Equity Interest to the Company. Finally, the Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders granted irrevocable proxies to two directors of the Company to exercise all voting rights such Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders have with respect to their ownership interest in Yi Wan Beijing. The irrevocable proxies further provide that if such two directors cease to be an employee of the Company, the Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders agree to immediately terminate the proxy and to grant a proxy to another person designated by the Company. The restaurant managed by Yi Wan Beijing serves Hong Kong style fast foods and is located in the city of Beijing, PRC. The restaurant operation suffered losses since its opening due to insufficient sales volume. On March 23, 2005, the Company sold its current operating location, all air conditioning equipment, certain restaurant equipment and inventory to a third party. The company is currently seeking a new, more suitable operating location in Beijing City to continue on with our Hong Kong style fast foods restaurant.

Through our Jiaozuo Yi Wan Hotel Company, we have made an investment to set up a luxury restaurant in Zhengzhou City, the capital of Henan Province, PRC. To comply with the PRC's regulations with respect to ownership of food and restaurant services, the Company will set up a variable interest entity with the same structure as Yi Wan Beijing that will legally own and operate this restaurant.

Consolidated results

(1)
SALES. Consolidated sales decreased by $489,156, or approximately 17.21%, from $2,841,721 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $2,352,565 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The 17.21% decrease was a direct result of a decrease in sales to our telecommunications business of $458,089. We failed to launch new products in the telecommunication sector. Production in our telecommunication business was suspended and the sales were only generated from the existing inventory.  Our hotel and restaurant business was also affected by the divergence of our source of tourists and this lead to a slight reduction in income of $70,670 for our hotel and restaurant business. There was an increase in the number of hotels and entertainment establishments built near our locations and there has been an increase in competition for the sauna services. Over the past period, our competition has increased the quality of their services and their facilities that compete with our entertainment line of business. We believe some customers prefer to go to the newly built facilities, and this has lead to the decrease in sales in our entertainment line of business. However, overall, we believe that our hotels continue to provide the highest quality of services.

(2)
COST OF GOODS SOLD. Consolidated cost of goods sold decreased by $347,960, from $1,096,319 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $748,359 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales decreased to 31.81% for the three months ended March 31, 2005, from 38.58% for the three months ended March 31, 2004. This decrease was primarily a result of the decreased activity in our telecommunication business. As customers have gradually adapted to new telecommunication products and technology, our telecommunication business product line is becoming dated. The Company’s current sources of sales are from customers with long-time relationships with the Company and is for their maintenance spare parts and accessories. As a result of only limited sales in the telecommunications business, correspondingly there was only a small amount of cost of sales for this business, therefore reducing the overall cost of goods sold amount.

(3)
GROSS PROFIT. Consolidated gross profit decreased by $141,196, from $1,745,402 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $1,604,206 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased to 68.19% for the three months ended March 31, 2005 from 61.42% for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The decrease in gross profit was a direct result of the decrease in sales in our telecommunication business as explained above. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of sales was mainly attributable to there being fewer sales in our telecommunications business which historically had smaller profit margins. In addition, the increase in gross profit as a percentage of sales was also a result of a decrease in our cost of certain raw materials in our hotel and restaurant business. This includes a decrease in prices for meat, eggs, vegetables, and rice in comparison to the same period in 2004.

(4)
SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling and administrative expenses increased by $116,934, from $1,123,445 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $1,240,379 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales increased to 52.72% for the three months ended March 31, 2005 from 39.53% for the three months ended March 31, 2004.  The increase in selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales is mainly attributed to the lack of sales in the telecommunication business. The dollar increase is primarily a result of an increase in certain corporate expenses in our hotel and restaurant business, such as the increase of water and electricity prices, an increase in certain hotel materials usage, and the increased cost of payroll, social welfare and stage performance expenses in our hotel and restaurant business.

(5)
NET INCOME. Consolidated net income decreased by $269,270, or approximately 79.63%, from $338,157 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $68,887 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The decrease was mainly due to: (1) a decrease in sales and increase in expenses related to our telecommunications business; and (2) operating expenses and disposal of our location and equipment in our YI WAN BEIJING restaurant business.

Segmented results

(1)
SALES. An itemization of each operating unit's data and an explanation of significant changes are as follows:

Hotel operations: Sales decreased by $70,670, or approximately 2.97%, from $2,376,213 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $2,305,543 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The 2.97% decrease was a result of an increase in competition in the hotel and restaurant business. There was an increase in the number of hotels and entertainment establishments built near our locations. Competition especially increased for the sauna services, as a result sales have been affected by the divergence of our source of customers, which has lead to the decrease in sales.

20

 
Telecommunication operations: Sales decreased by $458,089, or approximately 98.41%, from $465,508 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $7,419 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The 98.41% decrease was a result of the current suspended production. At present, the Company's products and technology are out of date. Our customers are gradually adapting to new products and technology, and this has lead to a decrease in purchases from the Company's current product line. In addition, the Company is not currently competitive in the telecommunications industry and the potential development of new products or upgrades of our current products are unlikely to occur. The Company is currently seeking new investments and a new operating direction for our Telecommunications business.

Yi Wan Beijing restaurant: Sales were $39,603 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The sales volume from our YI WAN BEIJING restaurant business was not as expected. We have entered into a transaction to dispose of our current location. We are not expecting any more sales to be generated from our current location. We are currently searching for a new operating location in Beijing City to continue our fast-food chain business. However, as we have not yet identified an appropriate location, the operating activity is temporarily suspended.

COST OF GOODS SOLD. An itemization of each operating unit's data and an explanation of significant changes is as follows:

Hotel operations: Cost of goods sold decreased by $75,051, from $796,320 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $721,269 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales decreased to 31.28% for the three months ended March 31, 2005 from 33.51% for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The 2.23% decrease in cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales is attributable to a decrease in our cost of certain raw materials, such as meat, eggs, vegetables and rice, and our decreased usage of high cost raw materials, such as tobacco and liquor, in comparison to the same period in 2004.

Telecommunication operations: Cost of goods sold decreased by $292,131, from $299,999 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $7,868 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales decreased to 106.06% for the three months ended March 31, 2005 from 64.45% for the three months ended March 31, 2004. The 97.38% decrease was a result of the suspended production and sales decreases, which contributed to the decrease in cost of sales.

Yi Wan Beijing restaurant: Cost of goods sold is $19,222 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Cost of goods sold as a percentage of sales is 48.53% for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

GROSS PROFIT.  An itemization of each operating unit's data and an explanation of significant changes is as follows:

Hotel operations: Gross profit increased by $4,381, from $1,579,893 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $1,584,274 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. As a percentage of sales, gross profit increased from 66.49% for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to 68.71% for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The 2.22% increase in gross profit as a percentage of sales resulted mainly from a decrease in the cost of certain raw materials, such as meat, eggs, vegetables, and rice in comparison to the same period in 2004. In addition, tobacco and liquor have historically comprised a larger portion of the costs of sales, but where we increased our sales was in lodging with higher room rates and volume compared with the same period in 2004. During the three months ended March 31, 2004, there were more longer-term lodging visitors and higher tobacco and liquor sales volume, room rates were lower and our cost of sales were higher. However, there were more shorter-term lodging visitors staying in the first three months of 2005 with lower sales of tobacco and liquor.
 
Telecommunication operations: Gross profit decreased by $165,958, from $165,509 for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to a loss of $449 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. As a percentage of sales, gross profit decreased from 35.55% for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to -6.05% for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The 41.6% decrease in gross profit as a percentage of sales was the result of the Company reducing its selling prices on certain items to lower than cost in order to sell more of its inventory stock. Any additional inventory items expected to be sold at or below cost have been written down to their expected net realizable value as of March 31, 2005.
 
Yi Wan Beijing restaurant: Gross profit is $20,381 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Gross profit as a percentage of sales is 51.46% for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales increased to 43.15% for the three months ended March 31, 2005 from 38.51% for the three months ended March 31, 2004.

Yi Wan Beijing restaurant: Selling and administrative expenses are $79,567 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The operating expense mainly consists of rental expense. We were unable to operate effectively and to generate a profit mainly due to the high rental expense and lower than expected business volume. We have entered into a transaction to dispose of our current location. We are currently searching for a new location in Beijing City to continue our fast-food chain business as explained above.
 
(5)
INCOME BEFORE MINORITY INTEREST. An itemization of each operating unit's data and further explanations of significant changes are as follows:

Hotel operations: Income before minority interest decreased by $60,494, from $448,531, or 18.88% of sales, for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to $388,037, or 16.83% of sales, for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The decrease as a percentage of sales was a result of a decrease in sales in our entertainment line of services and the increased cost of certain operating expenses as explained above.

Telecommunications operations: Income before minority interest decreased by $94,163, from $38,494 or 8.27% of sales, for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to a net loss of $55,669, or -750.36% of sales, for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The decrease was a result of the Company reducing its selling price to lower than cost for certain items sold in order to sell more of its inventory stock as explained above, and the incurrence of fixed operating expenses.

Yi Wan Beijing restaurant: Income before minority interest is at a loss of $114,559, or -289.27% of sales, for the three months ended March 31, 2005. YI WAN BEIJING has suffered losses since this restaurant’s opening due to high operating costs and insufficient sales volume. We have entered into a transaction to dispose of our current location. We are currently searching for a new location in Beijing city to continue our fast-food chain business as explained above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of March 31, 2005, net cash provided by operating activities was $67,381; net cash used in investing activities was $177,636; and net cash by financing activities was $331,074.

As of March 31, 2004, net cash provided by operating activities was $903,566; net cash used in investing activities was $170,899; and net cash used in financing activities was $1,210.

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $836,185 to $67,381 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, representing a decrease of approximately 92.54%. The decrease was mainly due to the increase in funds advanced to related parties for the purchase of construction materials and facility equipment upgrade materials for our hotel and restaurant business.

Net cash used in investing activities increased by $6,737 to $177,636 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. This represents a 3.94% increase from the $170,899 net cash used for the same period in 2004. The increase was mainly due to the additional funds used for construction expenses in our investment on the new Zhengzhou restaurant.

Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $332,284 to $331,074 for the three months ended March 31, 2005, representing a 27461% increase, compared to $1,210 used in financing activities for the same period in 2004. The increase was mainly due to the Company obtaining a bank loan during this period for the purpose of lending the money to a 20% shareholder of QINYANG, the Qin Yang Local Government.

Going forward, our primary requirements for cash consist of: (1) the continued implementation of the Hotel and Restaurant and Telecommunications business' existing business model in China, and the general overhead and personnel related expenses in support of this implementation; (2) continued promotional activities to increase hotel related revenues; (3) the development costs of the hotel operations in China; (4) the payment of cash contributions to the joint ventures under the existing agreements; and (5) payments due to some of the subsidiaries' former equity owners. We do not have any material commitments for capital expenditures as of March 31, 2005. We anticipate that our current operating activities will enable us to meet the anticipated cash requirements for the 2005 fiscal year. Our Jiaozuo Yi Wan hotel expects to open one restaurant in Zhengzhou City and one restaurant in Beijing under our "Yi Wan” brand over the next three years. Our Yi Wan Beijing Hotel Management Co., Ltd. expects to open four or six Restaurants under our new “Diyikou” brand fast-food chain in Beijing and Shanghai over the next five years.

 
Historically, our subsidiary companies have financed operations principally through cash generated from operations. Initial capital for the Hotel and Restaurant business and our Telecommunications business came from shareholders' contributions and are as follows: (1) Hotel and Restaurant business: $11,960,000; and (2) Telecommunications business: $1,580,000. No bank loans were obtained for the Hotel and Restaurant or Telecommunications businesses. We have to make capital contributions to our subsidiaries and have met the capital registration requirements. An investment requirement we have yet to meet is the $4,932,273 due to joint venture’s former partners. The balance is to be funded from the profits generated from the operations of the subsidiaries and, if necessary, equity financing. There is no assurance; however, that equity financing can be obtained for the above purposes. The joint venture’s former partners extended the September 2004 payment date to June 2006 for capital contributions. We intend to fund the hotel and restaurant's capital improvements from the positive cash flow generated from hotel operations. 
 
MANAGEMENT ASSUMPTIONS

Management anticipates, based on internal forecasts and assumptions relating to our operations, which existing cash and funds generated from operations will be sufficient to meet working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. In the event that plans change, our assumptions change or prove inaccurate, or if other capital resources and projected cash flow otherwise prove to be insufficient to fund operations (due to unanticipated expense, technical difficulties, or otherwise), we could be required to seek additional financing. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

EFFECTS OF INFLATION

We are subject to commodity price risks arising from price fluctuations in the market prices of the various raw materials that comprise our products. Price risks are managed by each business unit through productivity improvements and cost-containment measures. Management does not believe that inflation risk is material to our business or our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

EFFECT OF FLUCTUATION IN FOREIGN EXCHANGE RATES

Our operating subsidiaries are located in China. These companies buy and sell products in China using Chinese Renminbi as the functional currency. Based on China government regulation, all foreign currencies under the category of current accounts can be freely exchanged with hard currencies. During the past two years of operation, there were no significant changes in exchange rates; however, unforeseen developments may cause a significant change in exchange rates.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

None.

REORGANIZATION OF OPERATION OF RESTAURANT BUSINESS

In order to expand our restaurant and food services and still be in compliance with the regulations of the People's Republic of China ("PRC") with respect to restaurant services, in July 2004, we established Yi Wan Beijing Hotel Management Co. Ltd. ("YI WAN BEIJING"), a variable interest entity through two persons who are PRC citizens and who each legally owned 50% of Yi Wan Beijing ("Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders") to operate our restaurant business. Pursuant to an Equity Trust Agreement, we transferred RMB 100,000 to the Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders that was used to form and capitalize Yi Wan Beijing. The Equity Trust Agreement provides that the Trustees are to hold the equity interest in Yi Wan Beijing (the "Equity Interests") in trust for the benefit of Yi Wan Group, Inc. The Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders have agreed to not sell, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of the Equity Interests. Any such transfer will result in a breach of the Equity Trust Agreement and the Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders will be required to transfer the Equity Interest to the Company. Further, the Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders have agreed to promptly distribute any and all dividends, distributions or other payments received from Yi Wan Beijing with respect to the Equity Interest to the Company. Finally, the Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders granted irrevocable proxies to two directors of the Company to exercise all voting rights such Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders have with respect to their ownership interest in Yi Wan Beijing. The irrevocable proxies further provides that if such two directors cease to be an employee of the Company, the Yi Wan Beijing Interest Holders agree to immediately terminate the proxy and to grant a proxy to another person designated by the Company.

 
YI WAN BEIJING has suffered losses since the opening of the Beijing Diyikou fast food restaurant due to insufficient sales volume. The Company decided to sell its operating location and entered into an agreement with Beijing Le Jie Shi Restaurant limited (LE JIE SHI) on March 23, 2005. The agreement specified that YI WAN BEIJING agreed to sell its operating location to LE JIE SHI for $9,680. The transaction included the operating location, all air conditioning equipment, certain restaurant equipment and inventory. LE JIE SHI deposited $6,050 on March 23, 2005 with the remaining balance of $3,630 to be paid when the agreement is finalized in April 2005. In addition, the lessor of the operating location agreed to terminate the lease agreement with YI WAN BEJING and entered into a new lease agreement with LE JIE SHI. As a result of the transaction, the Company recorded a loss of $53,940, which is included in the accompanying consolidated statements. The loss consisted of the leasehold improvements costs of $50,134, equipment costs of $3,076 and inventory costs of $730. YI WAN BEIJING is currently seeking a new, more suitable operating location in Beijing City for the “Diyikou” brand fast-food restaurant.
 
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS
 
While our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, to date virtually all of our revenues and costs are denominated in Renminbi and a significant portion of our assets and liabilities are denominated in Renminbi. As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our revenues and results of operations may be impacted by fluctuations in the exchange rate between U.S. Dollars and Renminbi. If the Renminbi depreciates against the U.S. Dollar, the value of our Renminbi revenues and assets as expressed in our U.S. Dollar financial statements will decline. We do not hold any derivative or other financial instruments that expose us to substantial market risk.

The Renminbi is currently freely convertible under the "current account", which includes dividends, trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, but not under the "capital account", which includes foreign direct investment. To date, we have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. While we may decide to enter into hedging transactions in the future, the effectiveness of these hedges may be limited and we may not be able to successfully hedge our exposure at all.  Accordingly, we may incur economic losses in the future due to foreign exchange rate fluctuations, which could have a negative impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
