CREDIT ONE FINANCIAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

MARCH 31, 2011



Note 1 –Nature of Business


Credit One Financial, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Florida on September 24, 1999.  The Company was engaged in market research regarding the cost and availability of non-performing credit card debt portfolios.  It was also engaged in research regarding the current market price for re-performing portfolios as well as the market prices offered for portfolios deemed non-collectable at the time of sale.


In February 2008, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with Global Select Limited in Hong Kong. Under the agreement, a joint venture company, Moderation Limited, was set up in Hong Kong, whereby, on January 12, 2009, the Company contributed $16 million Hong Kong dollars, approximately $2.06 million, in exchange for 51.6% of the equity interest in Moderation, and Global Select and its partner together contributed $15 million Hong Kong dollars, approximately $1.94 million, for 48.4% of the equity interest in Moderation. The purpose of the joint venture is to engage in a business of natural resources products, primarily graphite at this time, in China.


In January 2009, Moderation Limited established a wholly owned subsidiary “Liaoning Sinorth Resources Co., Ltd.” in Yingkou, Liaoning Province, China. The main business of Liaoning Sinorth Resources Co., Ltd. is processing and distribution of mineral products, primarily graphite, in China.


In August 2010, the Company established a wholly owned subsidiary “E&M International Limited (“E&M”)” in the Cayman Islands.  The purpose of E&M is to conduct its operations in the business of entertainment and media. On September 16, 2010, E&M changed its name to CEM International Ltd. (“CEM”).


On November 18, 2010, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement with China Minerals International Limited (“China Minerals”).  Pursuant to the share purchase agreement, the Company agreed to sell and China Minerals agreed to acquire the Company’s 51.6% equity interest in Moderation Limited (“Moderation”), a subsidiary of the Company located in Hong Kong, for $16 million Hong Kong dollars, approximately $2.06 million in cash. The transaction was closed on November 30, 2010.


Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Financial Reporting


The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Revenues and expenses are reported on the accrual basis, which means that income is recognized as it is earned and expenses are recognized as they are incurred.


Management is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company's system of internal  accounting  control is designed to assure,  among other items, that 1) recorded  transactions are valid; 2) valid transactions are recorded; and 3) transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods being presented.


Basis of presentation


The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  The results of operations realized during an interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year.  These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the information filed as part of the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed on March 31, 2011.





6




Consolidation Scope and Principles of Consolidation


The consolidated financial statements presented the financial position and the results of operations of Credit One Financial, Inc. and its 51.6% owned subsidiary, Moderation Limited (a Hong Kong corporation, “Moderation”) through November 30, 2010, the date Moderation was sold. Moderation, in turn, was the 100% owner and consolidated Liaoning Sinorth Resources Co., Ltd, a People’s Republic of China corporation. Also included in the consolidated financial statements are the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company’s 100% owned subsidiary, CEM.


The non-controlling interest in Moderation was classified as part of stockholders’ equity in the consolidated balance sheet, and the non-controlling interest’s share of Moderation’s net loss was shown as a reduction of the Company’s net loss in the consolidated statement of operations.


All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.


Provision for Income Taxes


Deferred income taxes result from temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities recognized for differences between the financial statement and tax basis thereon, and for the expected future tax benefits to be derived from net operating losses and tax credit carry forwards. The Company has $376,545 in U.S. net operating loss carry-forwards and $77,794 in Macau net operating loss carry-forwards as of March 31, 2011, and a valuation allowance equal to the tax benefit of the accumulated net operating losses has been established since it is uncertain that future taxable income from operations in the United States of America will be realized during the applicable carry-forward periods. The net operating loss carry-forwards may be limited under the change of control provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, Section 382.


The Company applies the provisions of income tax accounting standards for uncertainty in income taxes, which prescribe a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities.  The amount recognized is measured as the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.  When applicable, the Company will include interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.


Use of Estimates in the Preparation of the Financial Statements


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


Fair Value Measurements


The Company follows accounting guidance relating to fair value measurements. This guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels as follows:


Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date.


Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data.


Level 3 – unobservable inputs for the asset or liability only used when there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.


The asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the unobservable inputs.


The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, which consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, are based on level 1 input, and equal carrying amounts.





7




Cash and Equivalents


For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.


As of March 31, 2011, the Company maintained $101,250 in foreign bank accounts not subject to FDIC coverage. The remaining balance of $117,582 at March 31, 2011 was maintained in a domestic bank account and fully insured by FDIC.


Foreign Currency


The Company reports it financial position and results of operations in U.S. dollars.  For its subsidiaries that have functional currencies that are foreign currencies, the elements of the financial statements are translated by using a current exchange rate.  For assets and liabilities, the exchange rate at the balance sheet date is used and for revenues, expenses, gains, and losses, the exchange rate at the dates on which those elements are recognized is used.  Transaction adjustments result from the process of translating the subsidiaries’ financial statements into US dollars and are not included in determining net income, but are reported in other comprehensive income.  There was currency translation adjustment of $1,434 for the three months ended March 31, 2011.


Foreign currency transactions are transactions denominated in a currency other than the entity's functional currency.  At the date the transaction is recognized, each asset, liability, revenue, expense, gain, or loss arising from the transaction is measured and recorded in the functional currency of the recording entity by use of the exchange rate in effect at that date. At each balance sheet date, recorded balances that are denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the recording entity are adjusted to reflect the current exchange rate, with any resulting differences reported in the current period statement of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company recognized $-0- and $874 in foreign currency exchange losses in the consolidated statements of operations, respectively.


Revenue Recognition


The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission revenue recognition accounting standards.  Sales revenues are recognized when the products are shipped to the customers, net of discounts and collectibility is reasonably assured.  No provisions are made for returns because, historically in China and in the industry, there have been very few sales returns and adjustments that have impacted the Company’s ultimate collection of revenues.


As an advertising agent, CEM is in the service business dedicated to creating, planning and handling advertising for its clients.  Advertising revenue is recognized upon the delivery of the contracted advertising services and when no significant Company performance obligation remains. Service revenue is recognized as the contracted services are rendered.


Exclusive Advertising Rights


Exclusive advertising rights represent costs for exclusive rights to advertise on Macau Lotus Satellite TV Media Limited’s (“Lotus”) network. The costs were determined as the difference between the face value of a non-interest bearing note receivable from Lotus and the present value of the note receivable at the time of issuance. This intangible asset is being amortized over the remaining life of the rights, which expire August 31, 2020.


Imputed Interest


In 2010 and 2011, the Company issued a non-interest bearing notes receivable which mature in 2020.  The notes receivable was recorded at issuance at its present value using an effective interest rate of 8%, which was the Company’s stated rate on another note receivable.  At the balance sheet date, the notes are revalued with the change in present value recorded as interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.


Shipping and Handling Costs


The Company recognized amounts billed to a customer in a sales transaction related to shipping as revenue. The costs incurred by the Company for shipping and handling were classified as cost of sales.



Impairment of Long Lived Assets




8




Management reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison for the carrying amount of an asset to future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the assets which considers the discounted future net cash flows.


Property, Plant and Equipment


Acquisitions of property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Improvements and replacements of property, plant and equipment are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of furniture and equipment are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of each class of depreciable assets, which is 3-20 years.


Properties under construction are recorded as construction in progress, and upon completion of construction, are transferred to a depreciable asset class, at which time the depreciation would start.


Earnings Per Share


Earnings Per Share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during the year.  Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during the year plus potential dilutive instruments such as stock options and warrants.  The effect of stock options on diluted EPS is determined through the application of the treasury stock method, whereby proceeds received by the Company based on assumed exercises are hypothetically used to repurchase the Company's common stock at the average market price during the period.  The Company has no stock options, warrants or other potentially dilutive instruments outstanding at March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.


Reclassifications


Certain amounts reflected in the accompanying financial statements as of March 31, 2010 have been reclassified from previously reported amounts.


Note 3- Discontinued Operations


On November 30, 2010 the Company sold its 51.6% equity interest in Moderation Limited, which in turn, owned 100% of Liaoning Sinorth Resources Co., Ltd. The Company decided to sell its stake in order due to a reassessment of its business plan. The Company sold its interest in Moderation for HK$16,000,000 (approximately $2.06 million at date of sale). The purchaser was also required to repay Moderation’s note payable of $790,754 to the Company, which was repaid in January 2011. The Company recognized a gain of $408,467 on the sale of the subsidiary.

Note 4 - Note Receivable and Exclusive Advertising Rights Asset


CEM International Limited entered into an exclusive agreement with Macau Lotus Satellite TV Media Limited (Lotus) on August 26, 2010 to provide advertising services for a ten year period commencing on September 1, 2010.  In consideration for the exclusive advertising rights granted by Lotus, CEM will provide advertising services and issue, over the course of the agreement, US$10 million in loans to Lotus. The amount and duration of each loan shall be negotiated by the parties, depending on Lotus’s financial needs.

On December 17, 2010, CEM issued Lotus TV a HK$15,000,000 (US$1,928,839) loan which is backed by a non-interest bearing promissory note, due on August 31, 2020.  The note receivable was discounted to its estimated fair value of HK$7,105,808 (US$913,872) using an effective interest rate of 8%.  This difference between the face value and the present value of HK$7,894,192 (US$1,014,967) was allocated to an intangible asset captioned Exclusive Advertising Rights.  Interest accreted to this note receivable for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and for the period from December 17, 2010 through December 31, 2010 was $17,533 and $2,911, respectively.  


On January 31, 2011, CEM issued Lotus TV an additional HK$6,084,000 (US$780,000) loan which is backed by a non-interest bearing promissory note, due on August 31, 2020.  The note receivable was discounted to its estimated fair value of HK$2,833,577 (US$363,279) using an effective interest rate of 8%.  This difference between the face value and the present value of HK$3,250,423 (US$416,721) was allocated to an intangible asset captioned Exclusive Advertising Rights.  Interest accreted to this note receivable for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $4,662.


An intangible asset captioned Exclusive Advertising Rights has been recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets representing the difference between the face amount of the notes receivable and the respective present values at the time of issuance.  This difference was deemed an asset because the interest-free note was a condition of the exclusive agreement. Exclusive Advertising Rights intangible asset referred to above has an assigned cost of $1,015,264 and accumulated amortization of $4,357 for a net balance of $1,010,907 as of December 31, 2010 and an assigned cost of $1,430,925 and accumulated amortization of $37,709 for a net balance of $1,393,216 as of March 31, 2011.  Amortization expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and for the period from December 17, 2010 through December 31, 2010 was $37,709 and $4,357, respectively.  Amortization expense for each of the next five years is expected to approximate $148,000.  


Note 5 – Income Taxes


The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method, which requires recognition of deferred income tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns.


Effective January 1, 2008, the Chinese government enacted the Corporate Income Tax Law, and promulgated related regulations, which, among other things, imposes a unified income tax rate of 25% for both domestic and foreign invested enterprises. The tax rate for Macau is 12%.


Due to the Company’s accumulated net losses, there was no provision for income taxes. The Company’s effective tax rate for the period ended March 31, 2011 was 0% due to the net operating loss carryforward.  The Company’s taxes were subject to a full valuation allowance as follows at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

Note 7 – Capital Stock and Contributed Capital


On March 30, 2005, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation, to authorize the maximum number of shares to have outstanding at any one time to be 110,000,000 shares of common stock having a par value of $0.001 per share.  As of December 31, 2010, there were 2,155,623 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding.


On January 8, 2010, the board of directors and a majority of the Company’s shareholders at its Annual Stockholder Meeting the Company approved to amend its articles of incorporation to increase the number of shares of authorized common stock from 110 million to 500 million.


On April 9, 2010, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida, wherein the Company effected an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to increase the authorized number of shares of its common stock from 110,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares, with a par value of $0.001 per share.


On October 29, 2010, the stockholders of the Company voted on and approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, to approve an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to effect an one-for-fifty reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock, $0.001 par value per share.  The amendment became effective as of December 27, 2010.  All share transactions disclosed in these financial statements give retroactive effect to this 1:50 reverse split.


Note 8 – Going Concern


The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred a net loss from continuing operations for the thee months ended March 31, 2011 of $78,787. The Company also has an accumulated deficit of $454,339 as of March 31, 2011. The Company may have to seek loans or sale of its securities to raise cash to meet its cash needs.  


There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to achieve profitable operations to obtain additional funding. These factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of the uncertainty.


Note 9 – Establishment of a Subsidiary


On January 12, 2009, the Company remitted $2.8 million to its joint venture company, Moderation Limited (“Moderation”).  Of the $2.8 million remitted, $2,063,185 were the Company’s capital investment to Moderation for 51.6% of the equity interest in Moderation, the remaining $736,815 was provided by the Company to Moderation as temporary working capital at interest rate of 8% annually. On October 29, 2008, the Chinese government approved Moderation’s application for setting up a wholly owned subsidiary “Liaoning Sinorth Resources Co., Ltd.” (“Liaoning Sinorth”) in Yingkou, Liaoning province, China.  The working capital loan and intercompany accounts are eliminated in consolidation.


In August 2010, the Company established a wholly-owned subsidiary, E&M International Limited (“E&M”) to engage in the business of entertainment and media.  E&M was incorporated in the Cayman Islands.  On September 16, 2010, the name of E&M was changed to CEM International Ltd. (“CEM”).




11




On November 18, 2010, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement with China Minerals International Limited (“China Minerals”).  Pursuant to the share purchase agreement, the Company agreed to sell and China Minerals agreed to acquire the Company’s 51.6% equity interest in Moderation Limited for $16 million Hong Kong dollars, approximately $2.06 million in cash. The transaction was closed on November 30, 2010.


Note 10 - Commitments and Contingencies


On August 26, 2010, E&M entered into an Advertising Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Macau Lotus Satellite TV Media Limited (“Lotus TV”), pursuant to which Lotus TV authorizes E&M as its exclusive agent to operate all of its advertising businesses, and to be entitled to all the revenues generated therefrom (“Advertising Rights”).


The term of this Agreement is 10 years from September 1, 2010 to August 31, 2020. In consideration for Lotus TV’s grant of the Advertising Rights, E&M agrees to pay Lotus TV a fixed annual fee every year (the “Annual Fee”) regardless of the total amount of advertising revenues received by E&M. Under the Agreement, E&M will pay Lotus TV an initial Annual Fee of $1,000,000 Hong Kong dollars (approximately US$128,900) for the first year of the Agreement, which Annual Fee will increase at 10% every year for the following two years. The initial annual fee has not yet been paid, and the Company accrued $74,898 as payable in the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2011.


E&M also agrees to extend to Lotus TV, interest free, a credit facility consisting of a series of loans (each a “Loan”) totaling a minimum of US$10 million over a period of 10 years. The terms of each Loan and the increase of Annual Fee after the first three years of the Agreement will be negotiated by the parties depending on financial needs and the advertising revenues. The Company currently expects that the loans will be originated from its cash reserve, advertising revenue and, if necessary, raised from the capital market.


Note 11 – Risks and Uncertainties


The Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially affected by many risks and uncertainties including the following:


The Company started current operations in 2009 and has not been profitable to date. It has financed operations principally through equity investments, and its ability to generate sufficient revenues to fund operations is uncertain. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $78,787, and has a total accumulated deficit of $454,339 as of March 31, 2011.  There can be no assurance that it will ever operate profitably, and if the losses continue, the Company’s ability to operate may be severely impacted or alternatively it may be forced to terminate operations


As a U.S. based company doing business in China, the Company must comply with all Chinese laws, rules and regulations, and pronouncements, and endeavor to obtain all necessary approvals from applicable Chinese regulatory authorities.


The Company’s operations could be adversely affected by changing political and economic policies in China.


The Company is constructing a processing and repackaging facility in China on land leased from the Chinese government, the final land use rights have not yet been awarded to the Company by the Chinese government.


Chinese government control of currency conversion may affect the Company’s ability to pay dividends declared, if any, in foreign currencies.


Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Chinese currency and the U.S. dollar may bring down the Company’s operating income.


Note 13- Subsequent Events


On May 3, 2011, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with sixteen investors in a private placement.  Pursuant to the agreement, the Company issued and investors purchased an aggregate of 300 million shares of the Company's common stock, at a price of $0.03 per share, for an aggregate consideration of $9,000,000 in cash.

Item 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



The discussion in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements.  Such statements are based upon our beliefs, as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to us as of the date of this report.  These forward-looking statements can be identified by their use of such verbs as "expect", "anticipate", "believe" or similar verbs or conjugations of such verbs.  If any of these assumptions prove incorrect or should unanticipated circumstances arise, the actual results could materially differ from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements.  


Overview


Until November 30, 2010, the Company’s main business was processing and distribution of mineral products, primarily graphite products, in China.  


The Company’s graphite business had been dependent on a relatively small number of industries and customers.  Because of the increased competitive pressure, the Company needed to, in certain cases, lower sales prices in order to maintain its customer base. Despite the efforts it had made, the Company lost some sales and the sales did not grow as much as the Company had expected.  The Company found it more and more difficult to carry out its graphite business as planed.  Accordingly, the Company turned its attention to other new revenue growth sources.


On November 18, 2010, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement with China Minerals International Limited (“China Minerals”).  Pursuant to the share purchase agreement, the Company agreed to sell and China Minerals agreed to acquire the Company’s 51.6% equity interest in Moderation Limited for $16 million Hong Kong dollars, approximately $2.06 million in cash. The transaction was closed on November 30, 2010.


Following the closing of the transaction, the Company owns no equity interest in Moderation, thereby ceasing to be a processor and distributor of graphite products.


On August 26, 2010, E&M International Limited (“E&M”), the newly established, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an advertising agreement with Macau Lotus Satellite TV Media Limited (“Lotus TV”), pursuant to which Lotus TV authorizes E&M as its exclusive agent to operate all of its advertising businesses (“Advertising Rights”).


The term of this agreement is ten years from September 1, 2010 to August 31, 2020. In consideration for Lotus TV’s grant of the Advertising Rights, E&M agrees to pay Lotus TV a fixed fee on an annual basis (the “Annual Fee”) regardless of the total amount of revenues generated from the advertising business to be received by E&M. Under the agreement, E&M will pay Lotus TV an initial Annual Fee of HK$1,000,000 (approximately US$128,900) for the first year of the agreement, which Annual Fee will increase at 10% every year for the following two years.


E&M also agrees to extend to Lotus TV, interest free, a credit facility consisting of a series of loans (each a “Loan”) totaling a minimum of US$10 million over a period of ten years. The terms of each Loan and the increase of the Annual Fee after the first three years of the agreement will be negotiated by the parties depending on Lotus TV’s financial needs and the amount of advertising revenues generated. The Company currently expects that the Loans will be originated from its cash reserve, advertising revenue and, if necessary, raised from the capital market. As of March 31, 2011, the Company has loaned Lotus TV approximately $2.7 million under this agreement.


E&M was incorporated in the Cayman Islands by the Company in August 2010 to engage in, inter alia, entertainment and media business. On September 16, 2010, the name of E&M was changed to CEM International Ltd.


At the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company, held on October 29, 2010, the stockholders voted on and approved an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, to approve an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to effect an one-for-fifty reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock, $0.001 par value per share.  The amendment became effective as of December 27, 2010.  All share transactions disclosed in these financial statements give retroactive effect to this 1:50 reverse split.


Results of Operations


For the three months ended March 31, 2011 Compared to 2010

Revenue



13





For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the revenue from the Company’s continuing operations was $23,886 as compared to $-0- for the same period of fiscal 2010, which reflected two advertising contracts relating to CEM’s Lotus TV license agreements.  


Operating expenses


Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were $125,851, as compared to $45,493 for the same period of fiscal 2010. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to accrual of annual license fees to Lotus TV.


Other income (expenses)


Our total other income (expense) for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $23,178, which consisted of interest income. For the same period of fiscal 2010, there was $-0- of other income (expenses).


Discontinued Operations


The Company recognized losses from the discontinued operations of Moderation, Ltd, which was disposed of on November 30, 2010, for the three months ended March 31, 2010 of $284,025. Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were $1,208,916. Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $1,325,184. Operating expenses were $167,757. Losses from discontinued operations allocated to the non-controlling interest were $137,468 for 2010.


Net income (loss)


For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company had a net loss of $78,787 attributed to common stockholders, or $0.04 per share, as compared to a net loss of $192,056, or $0.09 per share, for the same period of 2010.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


At March 31, 2011, the Company had cash balance of $218,832.  For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the operating activities of the Company used net cash of $31,673, as compared to net cash provided by $177,375 for the same period of the prior year. Decreases in cash flows from changes in inventories and accounts payables, partially offset by cash flows used by accounts receivable. Additionally, the net loss decreased between the periods.


Net cash provided by investing activities amounted to $10,754 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to cash used of $307,001 for 2010. This 2011 amount was primarily due to proceeds received from payments in notes receivable less the investments in note receivable. The 2010 amount pertains to purchase of property, plant and equipment.


During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, there were no financing activities.


In our opinion, available funds and revenues generated from our operation will satisfy our capital requirements for the next twelve months.  However, we may need to raise additional funds to pursue growth opportunities and make capital improvements.  We may raise funds through private placements, either in equity offerings, or interest bearing borrowings.  There is no guarantee that we will be able to raise additional funds through offerings or other sources.  If we are unable to raise funds, our ability to continue with operations will be materially hindered.


On May 3, 2011, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with sixteen investors in a private placement.  Pursuant to the agreement, the Company issued and investors purchased an aggregate of 300 million shares of the Company's common stock, at a price of $0.03 per share, for an aggregate consideration of $9,000,000 in cash.  


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


None.


Critical Accounting Policies


Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets



14




and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, such as doubtful accounts, inventories, and impairment of long-lived assets. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.


The accounting policies that we follow are set forth in Note 2 to our financial statements as included in this report.  These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.


Going Concern


The Company has not been profitable to date. It has financed operations principally through equity investments, and its ability to generate sufficient revenues to fund operations is uncertain. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company incurred a loss from continuing operations of $78,787, and has accumulated a total deficit of $454,339 as of March 31, 2011. There can be no assurance that it will ever operate profitably, and if the losses continue, the Company’s ability to operate may be severely impacted or alternatively it may be forced to terminate operations.




Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk



A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information in this Item.




Item 4.  Controls and Procedures


(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. 


Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2011.  Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this report based on the material weakness described below.


A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.


As used herein, the term “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures of the Company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms issued by the SEC.  Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer or officers and its principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


Material Weaknesses


Lack of Independent Directors.  We do not have effective policies regarding the independence of our directors and do not have independent directors. The lack of independent directors means that there is no effective review, authorization, or oversight of management or management’s actions by persons that were not involved in approving or executing those actions.


Lack of Effective Policies Regarding the General Accounting System. We do not have any documented processes for the input, accumulation, or testing of financial data that would provide assurance that all transactions are accurately and timely recorded or that the financial reports will be prepared on a periodic basis.




15




Lack of Effective Control over Financial Statement Disclosure. We do not maintain effective controls over financial statement disclosure. Specifically, controls were not designed and in place to ensure that all disclosures required were originally addressed in our financial statements. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.


Because of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2011, based on the criteria prescribed by COSO and the related guidance provided in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting – Guidance for Smaller Public Companies, issued by COSO.


Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has determined that the financial resources and personnel needed to address the material weaknesses identified or conduct a more robust evaluation of its controls would be overly costly and burdensome and is currently not warranted.  As the Company grows and resources become available, management will develop and implement remedial actions to address the material weaknesses it has identified.


Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.


(b) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting


Except for the material weakness noted above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
