CAUTIONARY NOTICE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

All statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q”) for the Company, other than statements of historical facts, that address future activities, events, or developments are forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements containing the words “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” and words of similar import.  These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by us in light of our experience and our assessment of historical trends, current conditions, and expected future developments as well as other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances.  Whether actual results will conform to the expectations and predictions of management, however, is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially.

Such risks include, among others, the following: international, national, and local general economic and market conditions; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast our growth; raw material costs and availability; new product development and introduction; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; loss of significant customers or suppliers; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other factors referenced in this and previous filings.

Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made in this Form 10-Q are qualified by these cautionary statements, and there can be no assurance that the actual results anticipated by management will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences to or effects on our business operations.  As used in this Form 10-Q, unless the context requires otherwise, “we” or “us” or “Registrant” or the “Company” means Perfectenergy International Limited, a Nevada corporation, and its subsidiaries.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)
 
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a) Organization and Description of Business

Perfectenergy International Limited (“PFGY” or “the Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 25, 2005.  The Company, through its subsidiaries, is principally engaged in the research, development, manufacturing, and sale of solar cells, solar modules, and photovoltaic (“PV”) systems.  The Company’s manufacturing and research facility is located in Shanghai, China, and it has sales and service offices in Shanghai, China and Germany.
 
On February 28, 2008, the Company formed Perfectenergy Solar-Tech (Shanghai) Ltd. (“Perfectenergy Solar-Tech”) under the laws of the People’s Republic of China as a wholly owned subsidiary of Perfectenergy International Limited (“Perfectenergy BVI”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company obtained approval from local authority for a reduction in Perfectenergy Solar-Tech's required registered capital from$20 million to $4 million. All registration documents of Perfectenergy Solar-Tech were completed in early September 2010.
 
The Company has incurred a net loss of $2.39 million for the eight months ended June 30, 2011 and has an accumulated deficit of $3.48 million as of June 30, 2011. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company has positive working capital of $2.9 million as of June 30, 2011. Management anticipates that it will generate sufficient cash flows to fund its operations for the next twelve months by increasing the volume of its product sales and raising additional capital from an equity financing and/or a lending facility from the local bank.  However, the Company does not have final binding commitments for such financings.  The Company’s ability to continue its operations for the next 12 months is primarily dependent upon its ability to grow its planned level of operations and obtain sufficient financial support and additional capital at acceptable costs.  If events or circumstances occur such that the Company is unable to or does not meet its operating plan as expected and obtained additional financing within 12 months, the Company may be required to significantly curtail or cease its operations.  The Company’s history of operating losses and lack of binding financing commitments, raise substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern.
 
(b) Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The Company changed its year end from October 31 to September 30 effective May 4, 2011. The financial statements presented herein include the statements of operations and cash flows for the eight months ended June 30, 2011, and the nine months ended July 31, 2010, which represents the period of the prior year most comparable to the current period. There are no material factors or trends that affect the comparability of the periods. The recasting of the comparable period in 2010 was not considered to be practical.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and all its wholly owned subsidiaries, Perfectenergy BVI, Perfectenergy (Shanghai) Limited (“Perfectenergy Shanghai”), Perfectenergy GmbH (“Perfectenergy GmbH”), and Perfectenergy Solar-Tech, as of June 30, 2011 and for the two and eight months period ended June 30, 2011 and for the three and nine months ended July 31, 2010 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP’) for interim financial information and with the instruction to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) that management considers necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, operating results, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Operating results and cash flows for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year.
 
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  The Company has reclassified certain prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on net loss.

(c) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes and assumptions that affect various accounts, including but not limited to long-lived assets, income taxes, inventories, revenue recognition and related sales reserves, allowance for doubtful accounts, and stock compensation as reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Management considers many factors in selecting appropriate operational and financial accounting policies and controls, and in developing the assumptions used to prepare these financial statements.  Management must apply significant judgment.  Among the factors, but not fully inclusive of all factors that may be considered by management, are the following: the range of accounting policies permitted by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; management’s understanding of the Company’s business - both historical results and expected future results; the extent to which operational controls exist that provide high degrees of assurance that all desired information to assist in the estimation is available and reliable or whether there is greater uncertainty in the information that is available upon which to base the estimate; expectations of the future performance of the economy, both domestically and globally, within various areas that serve the Company’s principal customers and suppliers of goods and services; expected rates of exchange; sensitivity and volatility associated with the assumptions used in developing estimates; and whether historical trends are expected to be representative of future trends.

The estimation process often times may yield a range of potentially reasonable estimates of the ultimate future outcomes, and management must select an amount that lies within that range of reasonable estimates based on the quantity, quality, and risks associated with the variability that might be expected from the future outcome and the factors considered in developing the estimate.  This estimation process may result in the selection of estimates that could be viewed as conservative or aggressive by others.  Management attempts to use its business and financial accounting judgment in selecting the most appropriate estimate; actual amounts, however, may differ from those estimates.

(d) Deferred Rent Obligation
 
The Company accounts for rent expense under the non-cancelable operating lease and amendments by amortizing the abated rent and scheduled rent increases on a straight-line basis over the lease term beginning with the effective lease commencement dates.
 
(e) Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria are met: 1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, which is when a signed sales contract or purchase order is received from the customer; 2) delivery has occurred, which is when legal title and risk of loss pass to the customer and no other performance obligations remain; 3) the fee is fixed and determinable, and 4) collection is reasonably assured. All of the Company’s products that are sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese VAT at a rate of 17% of the gross sales price or at a rate approved by the PRC local government. All of the Company’s products that are sold in Germany are subject to a Germany VAT at a rate of 19% of the gross sales price or at a rate approved by the Germany government. The revenue is recognized net of VAT tax, discount and allowance at the time.
  
The Company retains limited ownership of goods delivered to customers governed by Section 449 of the German Civil Code for the sole purpose of enabling recovery of goods in the event of customer default on payment.  The Company recognizes revenue upon delivery, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria have been met, as the Company is not entitled to direct the disposition of the goods, cannot rescind the transaction, cannot prohibit its customer from moving, selling or otherwise using the goods in the ordinary course of business.
 
For certain sales to one of the Company’s distributors, payment is contingent upon that distributor’s ability to resell the products.  As a result, revenue is not recognized until the distributor has resold the products.
 
The Company offers pricing protection to some of its distributor customers whereby the Company supports the distributor’s resale product margin on certain products held in the distributor’s inventory. The Company analyzes current requests for credit in process, also known as ship and debits, and inventory at the distributor to determine the ending sales reserve required for this program. Reserves are reduced directly from revenue and recorded as a reduction to accounts receivable.

(f) Fair Value Measurement of Financial Instruments

The accounting standards regarding fair value of financial instruments and related fair value measurements define financial instruments, define fair value, establish a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement, and enhance disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for current assets and current liabilities qualify as financial instruments and reflect reasonable estimates of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

 
·
Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology, which are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 
·
Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology that includes quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, substantially for the full term of the financial instrument.

 
·
Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology that are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company did not identify any asset and liability that is required to be presented on the balance sheet at fair value in accordance with this accounting standard.

(g) Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s principal operating subsidiaries established in the PRC use the local currency, Renminbi (“RMB”), as their functional currency.  The Company’s sales offices in Germany use the Euro (“EUR”) as their functional currency. 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 as incurred.
 
The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar. In translating the financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries from their functional currency into the Company's reporting currency of United States dollars, balance sheet accounts are translated using the closing exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, and income and expense accounts are translated using an average exchange rate prevailing during the reporting period. Adjustments resulting from the translation, if any, are included in cumulative other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity.

In accordance with the accounting standard regarding "Statement of Cash Flows," cash flows from the Company's operations are calculated based on local currencies using the average exchange rate prevailing during the reporting period translated into the Company's reporting currency of United States dollars. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets.
(h) Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

(i) Accounts Receivable

The Company conducts its business operations in the PRC, and it has sales offices in Germany. Management reviews its accounts receivable on a regular basis and analyzes historical bad debts, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends, and changes in customer payment patterns to determine if the allowance for doubtful account is adequate and adjusts the allowance when necessary. The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects the Company’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in the accounts receivable balance and ultimate losses may vary from current estimates.  As adjustments to these estimates, become necessary, they are reported in operations in the periods that they become known.  If all attempts to collect a receivable fail, the receivable is written off against the allowance.

(j) Other Receivables

Other receivables consist of advanced payment to be refunded by the Company’s suppliers and intercompany transfer of foreign currencies held by the Company’s export agents.  Management reviews its other receivables on a regular basis and analyzes the financial conditions of the Company’s suppliers and export agents to determine if the allowance for doubtful account is adequate and adjusts the allowance when necessary.  An estimate for doubtful accounts is recorded when collection of the full amount is no longer probable.

(k) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using a weighted average cost method.  The Company reviews its inventory periodically for possible obsolete goods to determine if any reserves are necessary for potential obsolescence.  The Company provides for slow moving inventory based on an analysis of the aging and utility of the inventory.   The Company believes that the reserve is adequate to provide for expected losses.

(l) Prepayments

Prepayments are prepayments to the Company’s suppliers. Some of the Company’s suppliers require advanced payment before a delivery is made. Such prepayments are recorded in the financial statements as prepayments until delivery has occurred.

(m) Property and Equipment, net

Equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed by using the straight-line method at rates based on the estimated useful lives of the various classes of property.  Estimates of useful lives are based on a variety of factors including durability of the asset, the amount of usage that is expected from the asset, the rate of technological change, and the Company’s business plans for the asset.  Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or estimated useful life of the asset.  Should the Company change its plans with respect to the use and productivity of property and equipment, it may require a change in the useful life of the asset or incur a charge to reflect the difference between the carrying value of the asset and the proceeds expected to be realized upon the asset’s sale or abandonment.  Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and significant major improvements are capitalized.
 
Estimated useful lives of the Company’s assets are as follows:
 
   
Useful Life
 
Leasehold improvements
 
Lease term
 
Transportation equipment
 
5 years
 
Machinery
 
5 - 10 years

(n) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment annually, and more often if an event or circumstance occurs that triggers an impairment test.  Substantial judgment is necessary in the determination as to whether an event or circumstance has occurred that may trigger an impairment analysis and in the determination of the related cash flows from the asset.  Estimating cash flows related to long-lived assets is a difficult and subjective process that applies historical experience and future business expectations to revenues and related operating costs of assets.  Should impairment appear to be necessary, subjective judgment must be applied to estimate the fair value of the asset, for which there may be no ready market, which oftentimes results in the use of discounted cash flow analysis and judgmental selection of discount rates to be used in the discounting process.  If the Company determines an asset has been impaired based on the projected undiscounted cash flows of the related asset or the business unit over the remaining amortization period, and if the cash flow analysis indicates that the carrying amount of an asset exceeds related undiscounted cash flows, the carrying value is reduced to the estimated fair value of the asset or the present value of the expected future cash flows.  As of June 30, 2011, the Company expects these assets to be fully recoverable.
  
(o) Customer Deposits

Customer deposits are prepayments from our customers.  Some of our sales require customers to prepay before delivery is made.  Such prepayments are recorded in our financial statements as customer deposits until delivery has occurred.

(p) Value Added Tax (“VAT”)

The Company’s sales of products in the PRC and Germany are subject to a value added tax (“VAT”) in accordance with tax laws.  The VAT applied is 17% in the PRC and 19% in Germany of the gross sales price.  A credit is available whereby VAT paid on the purchases of semi-finished products or raw materials used in the production of the Company’s finished products and payment of freight expenses can be used to offset the VAT due on sales of the finished products.

(q) Provision for Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 740 Income Tax for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method as required by this accounting standard, the Company must recognize deferred income tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between income tax basis and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities.  Provision for income taxes consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes.

The Company adopted Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 740 Income Tax for Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.  A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur.  The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination.  For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded.  The accounting standard also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures, and transition. The Company accounts for interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expenses.

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method.  Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purpose of the Company.  The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified according to the financial statement classification of the assets and liabilities generating the differences.  Valuation allowances are established when necessary based on the judgment of management to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized and could be necessary based on estimates of future profitability and expenditure levels over specific time horizons in particular tax jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. In the event that the Company changes its determination as to the amount of deferred tax assets that can be realized, the Company will adjust its valuation allowance with a corresponding impact to the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made.
 
(r) Shipping and Handling

Costs related to shipping and handling of the products sold is included in selling, general and administrative expenses.  Shipping and handling expense of sales amounted to $969,598 for the eight months ended June 30, 2011 and $1,851,369 for the nine months ended July 31, 2010, respectively, and $506,807 for the two months ended June 30, 2011 and $827,013 for the three months ended July 31, 2010, respectively.

(s) Advertising

Advertising and promotion expenses are expensed as incurred, and the expense was immaterial during the periods.

(t) Research and Development Costs

Research and development expenses are expensed as incurred.  Research and development expenses include salaries, consultant fees, supplies, and materials, as well as costs related to other overhead such as facilities, utilities, and other departmental expenses.  The costs the Company incurs with respect to internally developed technology and engineering services are included in research and development expenses.

(u) Earnings per Share

The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 260 Earnings Per Share. This standard requires the presentation of earnings per share (EPS) as basic EPS and diluted EPS in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such earnings per share.  Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock.

Note 2 – Recently Issued Accounting Standards
 
In April 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2010-13, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades.” ASU 2010-13 provides amendments to Topic 718 to clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in currency of a market in which a substantial porting of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010.  The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-17, Revenue Recognition—Milestone Method (ASU 2010-017). ASU 2010-017 provides guidance in applying the milestone method of revenue recognition to research or development arrangements. This guidance concludes that the milestone method is a valid application of the proportional performance model when applied to research or development arrangements. Accordingly, an entity can make an accounting policy election to recognize a payment that is contingent upon the achievement of a substantive milestone in its entirety in the period in which the milestone is achieved. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The adoption of this accounting standard had no impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-28, which amends “Intangibles- Goodwill and Other” (Topic 350). The ASU modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts. For those reporting entities, they are required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. An entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that impairment may exist. The qualitative factors are consistent with the existing guidance in Topic 350, which requires that goodwill of a reporting unit be tested for impairment between annual testes if an event occurs or circumstances changes that would more likely than not reduce the faire value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. ASU 2010-28 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-29 which address diversity in practice about the interpretation of the pro forma revenue and earnings disclosure requirements for business combinations (Topic 805). This ASU specifies that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. This ASU also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures under Topic 805 to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro-forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. ASU 2010-29 is effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010.  The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements, but expects the adoption of this ASU will have an impact on its future business combinations.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standard (“IFRS”), to converge fair value measurement and disclosure guidance in U.S. GAAP with the guidance in the International Accounting Standards Board’s (“IASB”) concurrently issued IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement. The amendments in ASU 2011-04 do not modify the requirements for when fair value measurements apply; rather, they generally represent clarifications on how to measure and disclose fair value under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. The amendments in the ASU 2011-04 are effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is not permitted for public entities. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2011-04 on its financial statements. Adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements.

Other receivables mainly consist of foreign currency amounts transferred and held by the Company’s export agents.  Based on an analysis of the ending balance, no allowance for doubtful account is considered to be necessary.

In June and July 2008, Perfectenergy Shanghai entered into three purchase contracts for purchasing original MEMC granular polysilicon from Sun Materials GmbH (“Sun Materials”).  In accordance with the terms of the purchase contracts, Perfectenergy Shanghai paid 100% of the advance payments to Sun Materials totaling approximately $3.8 million. However, as of December 2009, Sun Materials was unable to either deliver the goods or return most of the advancement. Followed by an abstract debt acknowledgement and repayment agreement between Sun Materials and Regus Management Corp., British Virgin Island (“Regus BVI”), its original supplier for the MEMC granular polysilicon, Regus BVI was obligated to repay the prepayments in five installments.  Regus BVI made a small initial repayment, which was not in accordance with the terms established in the repayment agreement.  There have been no payments from any parties involved.  Based on our continuous assessment on June 30, 2011, doubts as to the collectability of this advancement still exists, management estimated that a 100% provision (approximately $3.8 million) is necessary against the full amount.  The Company will continue to assess the collectability and make necessary adjustment if circumstances dictate.

Note 8 – Late Registration Penalties

In connection with the issuance of common stock and warrants (“Investor Warrants,” and together with the common stock, the “Securities”) on August 8, 2007, pursuant to Section 1(b) of the Registration Rights Agreement between the holder of the Securities (“Investors”) and the Company, the Company was required to have a registration statement relating to the resale of the Securities declared effective by the SEC by January 5, 2008.  A late registration entitled the Investors to a payment by the Company of an amount equal to 2% of the purchase price paid for the Securities due for January 7, 2008 and each 30 days thereafter, not to exceed in the aggregate 15% of the purchase price of the Securities.  The registration statement was declared effective on March 5, 2008.  The Company owed the Investors a total of $1,079,467 as a late registration payment, which was accrued and charged to general and administrative expenses during the year ended October 31, 2008.

In lieu of making cash payments, the Company offered to issue restricted common stock at a valuation of $4.00 per share for the first 30 days that the registration statement was late in being declared effective by the SEC, to which certain of the Investors agreed.  Thus, the Company owed the Investors taking cash payments a total of $912,347 as late registration payments.  As of June 30, 2011, the Company paid $390,744 to the Investors and issued aggregate 41,780 shares of common stock valued at $167,120 to seven of the Investors in lieu of a cash payment.  The settlement of the remaining $521,603 is still in progress and is recorded in accrued liabilities, and the expected final payment date is pending by the Company’s Board of Directors.

Regulations in the PRC require the Company to contribute to a defined contribution retirement plan for all permanent employees.  Employees are entitled to an annual pension at retirement.  The PRC government is responsible for the benefit liability to these retired employees.  The Company is required to make contributions to the state retirement plan at 22% of the monthly basic salaries of the current employees. The Company made pension contributions in amount of $214,926 for the eight months ended June 30, 2011, and $170,896 for the nine months ended July 31, 2010, respectively, and for each of the two months ended June 30, 2011 and three months ended July 31, 2010, the Company made pension contributions in the amount of $44,665 and $54,607, respectively.

Note 10 – Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

PFGY Stock Options

On September 5, 2007, the Company adopted the “Perfectenergy International Limited 2007 Stock Incentive Plan” (the “Stock Incentive Plan”). The Company reserved 1,500,000 shares of its common stock pursuant to the Stock Incentive Plan. During the ten months ended October 31, 2007, under the Stock Incentive Plan, the Company issued 1,282,358 options to employees and directors, of which 164,298 options were cancelled in December 2007, 25,000 were cancelled in March 2008, 39,298 were forfeited in July 2010, and 9,375 were exercised in April 2008. The Company used the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein binomial model to value the options at the time they were issued, based on volatility of 70%, dividend yield of 0%, the stated exercise prices and expiration dates of the instruments, and using an average risk-free rate of 4.5%. The fair value of such options was $4,641,629 as of the grant date. The cost of the options had been amortized evenly over the vesting period, which was three years ended in October 2010.

On February 1, 2008, the Company issued 125,000 options to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. These options vested evenly on an annual basis over the three years following the date of grant. The Company used the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein binomial model to value the options at the time they were issued, based on volatility of 70%, dividend yield of 0%, the stated exercise prices of the instruments, and using an average risk-free rate of 2.36%. The fair value of such options was $328,117 as of the grant date. The cost of the options had been amortized evenly over the vesting period, which was three years ended in January 2011.

On April 7, 2010, the Company granted a total of 200,000 stock options to three executives and four directors. The shares were valued at the market price on the date of grant. The estimated fair value of stock options granted was $0.19 per share. On April 7, 2011, 1/3 of the granted stock options vested and became exercisable, and the remaining 2/3 of the granted stock options vest evenly on April 7, 2012 and April 7, 2013, respectively.

The fair value is determined using the following assumptions:

The volatility of the Company’s common stock was estimated by management based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, the risk free interest rate based on Treasury Constant Maturity Rates published by the U.S. Federal Reserve for periods applicable to the estimated life of the options, and the expected dividend yield based on the current and expected dividend policy. The Company has never declared or paid cash dividends and does not plan to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future; therefore, the Company used an expected dividend yield of zero. Forfeiture is estimated at the time of grant. The Company’s estimate is zero at April 7, 2010 because of the small number of employees involved, and there is no expected future employee termination prior to vesting.  The expected life represents the weighted-average period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules. Because the Company does not have a history of employee stock options, the estimated life is based on one-half of the sum of the vesting period and the contractual life of each option. This is the same as assuming that the options are exercised at the mid-point between the vesting date and expiration date.

Note 11 – Statutory Reserves

The laws and regulations of the PRC require that before an enterprise distributes profits to its owners, it must first satisfy all tax liabilities, provide for losses in previous years, and make allocations to investors, in proportions determined at the discretion of the board of directors, after the statutory reserve.  The statutory reserve includes the surplus reserve fund and the enterprise fund.  The statutory reserve represents restricted retained earnings.

Surplus Reserve Fund

Pursuant to the PRC’s accounting standards, Perfectenergy Shanghai and Perfectenergy Solar-Tech are required to set aside 10% of their after-tax profit each year to their general reserves until the accumulative amount of such general reserves reaches 50% of their respective registered capital.  These allocations must be made before Perfectenergy Shanghai or Perfectenergy Solar-Tech can distribute any cash dividends to each of their sole shareholder, Perfectenergy BVI.

In addition to using the funds in their surplus reserves to distribute cash dividends to their shareholders, Perfectenergy Shanghai and Perfectenergy Solar-Tech may also use such funds (i) during a liquidation, (ii) to cover a previous years’ losses, if any, (iii) for business expansion, or (iv) for conversion to registered capital by issuing new shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their holdings, provided that the remaining surplus reserve fund balance after such issue is not less than 25% of each of their registered capital, or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by existing shareholders.  For the two months ended and eight months ended June 30, 2011 neither Perfectenergy Shanghai nor Perfectenergy Solar-Tech made any contribution to their respective surplus reserve fund.

Enterprise Fund

The enterprise fund may be used to acquire plant and equipment or to increase working capital to expand on production and business operations.  No minimum contribution is required, and neither Perfectenergy Shanghai nor Perfectenergy Solar-Tech made any contributions to their respective enterprise fund for the two and eight months ended June 30, 2011.

Perfectenergy US, Perfectenergy GmbH, Perfectenergy Shanghai, and Perfectenergy Solar-tech all suffered an operating loss for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2010 and for the eight months ended June 30, 2011 as well. Management reviews the valuation allowance periodically. As a result, a full valuation allowance has been recognized on the deferred tax asset benefit to reduce the asset to zero, since the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would not be utilized based on the Company’s limited operating history and future operating projections.

There was no material effect to loss per share if the statutory income tax had been applied.

The Company also recognizes the tax benefit of an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by tax authorities, based solely on the technical merits of the position. The Company has made the assessment at the level of tax authority for each tax position (including the potential application of interest and penalties) based on the technical merits. As a result, the Company determined that there were no material unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2011.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.

The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition of the Company should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes to those financial statements that are included above.  Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based on current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations, and intentions.  Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Information and Results of Operations sections in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.

OVERVIEW

We were originally incorporated on February 25, 2005 in the State of Nevada under our former name “Crestview Development Corporation.”  As a result of a share exchange transaction that closed on August 8, 2007, our business is the research, development, manufacturing, and sale of solar cells, solar modules, and photovoltaic (“PV”) systems through our direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries.

We changed our fiscal year end from October 31 to September 30 effective May 4, 2011. The financial statements presented herein include the statements of operations and cash flows for the eight months ended June 30, 2011, and the nine months ended July 31, 2010, which represents the period of the prior year most comparable to the current period. There are no material factors or trends that affect the comparability of the periods. The recasting of the comparable period in 2010 was not considered to be practical.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

This discussion and analysis is based on our financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported net sales and expenses during the reporting periods.  On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

While our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to our financial statements under the section above titled “Financial Statements,” we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis:
 
 
27

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes and assumptions that affect various accounts, including but not limited to long-lived assets, income taxes, inventories, revenue recognition and related sales reserves, allowance for doubtful accounts, and stock compensation as reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management considers many factors in selecting appropriate operational and financial accounting policies and controls, and in developing the assumptions used to prepare these financial statements. Management must apply significant judgment. Among the factors, but not fully inclusive of all factors that may be considered by management, are the following: the range of accounting policies permitted by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; management’s understanding of the Company’s business - both historical results and expected future results; the extent to which operational controls exist that provide high degrees of assurance that all desired information to assist in the estimation is available and reliable or whether there is greater uncertainty in the information that is available upon which to base the estimate; expectations of the future performance of the economy, both domestically and globally, within various areas that serve the Company’s principal customers and suppliers of goods and services; expected rates of exchange; sensitivity and volatility associated with the assumptions used in developing estimates; and whether historical trends are expected to be representative of future trends.  The estimation process often times may yield a range of potentially reasonable estimates of the ultimate future outcomes, and management must select an amount that lies within that range of reasonable estimates based on the quantity, quality, and risks associated with the variability that might be expected from the future outcome and the factors considered in developing the estimate. This estimation process may result in the selection of estimates that could be viewed as conservative or aggressive by others. Management attempts to use its business and financial accounting judgment in selecting the most appropriate estimate; actual amounts, however, may differ from those estimates.
  
  Other Receivables

Other receivables consist of advanced payment to be refunded by the Company’s suppliers and intercompany transfer of foreign currencies held by the Company’s export agents. Due to the passage of time, advanced payment to be refunded by the Company’s suppliers has been reclassified as a non-current asset. Management reviews its other receivables on a regular basis and analyzes the financial conditions of the Company’s suppliers and export agents to determine if the allowance for doubtful account is adequate and adjusts the allowance when necessary. An estimate for doubtful accounts is recorded when collection of the full amount is no longer probable.

Property and Equipment

Equipment and leasehold improvements are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed by using the straight-line method at rates based on the estimated useful lives of the various classes of property. Estimates of useful lives are based on a variety of factors including durability of the asset, the amount of usage that is expected from the asset, the rate of technological change, and the Company’s business plans for the asset. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or estimated useful life of the asset. Should the Company change its plans with respect to the use and productivity of property and equipment, it may require a change in the useful life of the asset or incur a charge to reflect the difference between the carrying value of the asset and the proceeds expected to be realized upon the asset’s sale or abandonment. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred and significant major improvements are capitalized.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment annually, and more often if an event or circumstance occurs that triggers an impairment test. Substantial judgment is necessary in the determination as to whether an event or circumstance has occurred that may trigger an impairment analysis and in the determination of the related cash flows from the asset. Estimating cash flows related to long-lived assets is a difficult and subjective process that applies historical experience and future business expectations to revenues and related operating costs of assets. Should impairment appear to be necessary, subjective judgment must be applied to estimate the fair value of the asset, for which there may be no ready market, which oftentimes results in the use of discounted cash flow analysis and judgmental selection of discount rates to be used in the discounting process. If the Company determines an asset has been impaired based on the projected undiscounted cash flows of the related asset or the business unit over the remaining amortization period, and if the cash flow analysis indicates that the carrying amount of an asset exceeds related undiscounted cash flows, the carrying value is reduced to the estimated fair value of the asset or the present value of the expected future cash flows.
 
 
28

 
 
Deferred Rent Obligation
 
The Company accounts for rent expense under the non-cancelable operating lease and amendments by amortizing the abated rent and scheduled rent increases on a straight-line basis over the lease term beginning with the effective lease commencement dates.
   
Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria are met: 1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, which is when a signed sales contract or purchase order is received from the customer; 2) delivery has occurred, which is when legal title and risk of loss pass to the customer and no other performance obligations remain; 3) the fee is fixed and determinable, and 4) collection is reasonably assured. All of the Company’s products that are sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese VAT at a rate of 17% of the gross sales price or at a rate approved by the PRC local government. All of the Company’s products that are sold in Germany are subject to a Germany VAT at a rate of 19% of the gross sales price or at a rate approved by the Germany government. The revenue is recognized net of VAT tax, discount and allowance at the time.
 
The Company retains limited ownership of goods delivered to customers governed by Section 449 of the German Civil Code for the sole purpose of enabling recovery of goods in the event of customer default on payment.  The Company recognizes revenue upon delivery, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria have been met, as the Company is not entitled to direct the disposition of the goods, cannot rescind the transaction, cannot prohibit its customer from moving, selling or otherwise using the goods in the ordinary course of business.
 
For certain sales to one of the Company’s distributors, payment is contingent upon that distributor’s ability to resell the products.  As a result, revenue is not recognized until the distributor has resold the products.
 
The Company offers pricing protection to some of its distributor customers whereby the Company supports the distributor’s resale product margin on certain products held in the distributor’s inventory. The Company analyzes current requests for credit in process, also known as ship and debits, and inventory at the distributor to determine the ending sales reserve required for this program. Reserves are reduced directly from revenue and recorded as a reduction to accounts receivable.

Revenues. During the two months ended June 30, 2011, we had revenues of approximately $14.5 million compared to revenues of approximately $20.7 million for the three months ended July 31, 2010. Despite the decline in the average sales price of PV modules in the European market, we maintained a high volume of delivery of our PV module products. Compared to the three months ended July 31, 2010, the average number of units shipped per month of PV modules increased by 40% in the two months ended June 30, 2011.  We achieved this increase by contracting with PV module manufacturers in China and through the resale to European customers by our German subsidiary whereas our Shanghai plant mostly self-manufactured our products during the three months ended July 31, 2010.

Cost of Revenues.   Cost of revenues for the two months ended June 30, 2011 decreased to approximately $13.8 million from approximately $19.7 million for the three months ended July 30, 2010.  The monthly cost of sales increased with the increased shipment during the two months ended June 30, 2011, and this offset the positive impact from the decline in silicon wafer costs by 30% compared to the comparable period last year.  We also had an additional inventory provision of US$0.9 million against the PV modules held on hand/in transit due to the devaluation of modules in the current market.

Gross Profit (Loss).  Gross profit was approximately $730,000 for the two months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to gross profit of approximately $1.0 million for the three months ended July 31, 2010, representing a gross margin of 5.0% in both 2011 and 2010.  The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to reduced average sales prices as well as the provision against inventory held on hand.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.  Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled approximately $1.1 million for the two months ended June 30, 2011 compared to approximately $2.0 million for the three months ended July 31, 2010.  The decrease in these expenses is primarily attributable to decreased stock-based compensation expenses compared to last year as well as reduced inland transportation costs in Europe with co-operation distributors.

Research and Development Costs.  Research and development costs, which include development expenses such as salaries, consultant fees, cost of supplies, and materials for samples and costs related to other overhead such as facilities, utilities, and other departmental expenses, totaled approximately $77,000 for the two months ended June 30, 2011 compared to approximately $158,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2010.  Our specific R&D activities during the two months ended June 30, 2011 included the fine-tuning of our production process and experiments with new raw materials to improve efficiency or meet specific customer specifications. Our R&D spending stayed consistent on a monthly basis during the comparative periods.

Other  Expense.  We had other expenses of $303,000 for the two months ended June 30, 2011 compared to other expense of $87,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2010.  This increase was mainly due to an exchange loss from the fluctuation of foreign currency in May and June of 2011.

Net Loss.   Our net loss for two months ended June 30, 2011 was approximately $0.7 million compared to net loss of approximately $1.0 million for the three months ended July 31, 2010, which remains consistent between the periods. The net loss for the two months ended June 30, 2011 is attributable to a decreased sales margin as a result of market conditions as well as additional inventory reserve made against inventory held on hand as of June 30, 2011.

Revenues.   Our revenues are generated mainly by sales of our solar modules.  During the eight months ended June 30, 2011, we had revenues of approximately $38.6 million compared to revenues of approximately $57.2 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2010.  The decrease between the periods is mainly due to a slow-down in production and decreased demand in the market in late 2010. Since March 2011, our average number of units shipped per month of PV modules increased by 40% compared to the comparable period last year.  There was also a decline in the sales price of PV modules in Europe.

Cost of Revenues.   Cost of revenues for the eight months ended June 30, 2011 decreased to approximately $37.1 million from approximately $52.5 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2010.   The decrease of cost of sales is mainly due to a slowdown in demand that began in late 2010 and continued through early 2011 compared to a relatively stable demand last year. We also had an additional inventory reserve of $0.9 million as of June 30, 2011.

Gross Profit.   Gross profit was approximately $1.4 million for the eight months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to gross profit of approximately $4.7 million for the nine months ended July 30, 2010, representing a gross margin of 3.8% in 2011 and gross margin of 8.2% in 2010.  The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to a decrease in the average sales price as well as an additional inventory reserve made during the eight months ended June 30, 2011.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.   Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled approximately $3.4 million for the eight months ended June 30, 2011 compared to approximately $6.1 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2010.  The decrease is mainly due to reduced shipping and transportation cost in Europe due to low demand in late 2010 and the first two quarters of 2011 and reduced stock-compensation expenses incurred during the period. The decrease in compensation expense is due to the full amortization of stock-based compensation and no new options being granted to employees during the period.

Research and Development Costs.   Research and development costs, which include development expenses such as salaries, consultant fees, cost of supplies, and materials for samples and costs related to other overhead such as facilities, utilities, and other departmental expenses, totaled approximately $270,000 for the eight months ended June 30, 2011 compared to approximately $405,000 for the nine months ended July 31, 2010.  The decrease between the two periods is attributable to overall cost-savings efforts in operational activities along with a reduced production level in early 2011, both of which affected our R&D costs.

Other Income/(Expense).   We had other expenses of approximately $113,000 for the eight months ended June 30, 2011 compared to other income of approximately $27,000 for the nine months ended July 31, 2010.  The change is mainly due to exchange losses we recognized for our European sales in 2011 compared to the benefits from changes of value for warrant liabilities in 2010.

Net Loss.   Our net loss for the eight months ended June 30, 2011 was approximately $2.4 million compared to net loss of approximately $1.9 million for the nine months ended July 31, 2010.  The increase in net loss is attributable to decreased gross margins as well as inventory reserve charges in 2011.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flows – Eight Months Ended June 30, 2011

Net cash provided by operating activities was $747,943 during the eight months ended June 30, 2011, while net cash used in operating activities was $2.4 million during the nine months ended July 31, 2010.  The increase in cash inflow from operating activities during the periods was mainly due to increased accounts payable and customer deposits due to changes in trade terms in the supply market and additional customer deposits from new business after offsetting the increased inventory and trade receivables in 2011.  These changes were mainly due to additional business activities mostly carried out by our German subsidiary since March and April 2011.  These business activities involved direct contracting to PV module manufacturers in China and re-sale to European customers. 

Net cash used in investing activities was $66,000 during the eight months ended June 30, 2011, while net cash used in investing activities was $393,000 during the nine months ended July 31, 2010.  Uses of cash in investing activities included equipment purchases. The decrease in net cash used in investing activities between the two periods is attributed to controlled spending on capital expenditures during the period.

There was no cash provided by or used in financing activities during the eight months ended June 30, 2011 and the nine months ended July 31, 2010.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3.1 million as compared to $2.4 million at October 31, 2010. We will require a significant amount of cash to fund expansion of our operations. Despite a reduction in revenues in the current quarter, management projects growth of our business in future periods. Reduced revenue and profitability, which under present facts and circumstances management believes are temporary, have led us to revise our plans for capital spending and expansion to defer certain steps until we achieve greater profitability or obtain access to capital on terms attractive to us. Further changes in our operating plans, an increase in our inventory, increased expenses, or other events, may prompt us to seek additional equity or debt financing. If we are unable to successfully generate enough sales to cover our costs, we only have limited cash resources to bear operating losses; meanwhile, we will need to continue to generate new sales while controlling our costs.
 
We have incurred recurring operating losses and had an accumulated deficit of $3.48 million as of June 30, 2011. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we had positive working capital of $2.9 million as of June 30, 2011. Management anticipates that we will generate sufficient cash flows to fund our operations for the next twelve months by increasing the volume of our product sales and raising additional capital from an equity financing and/or a lending facility from the local bank. If future sales do not meet our forecasts, we may be required to fund operations by raising additional capital. As such, our ability to achieve our business plan is primarily dependent upon our ability to grow our planned level of operations and/or obtain sufficient additional capital at acceptable costs. With respect to these objectives, we cannot provide any assurance that we will succeed. If events or circumstances occur such that we are unable to or do not meet our operating plan as expected and/or do not secure additional financing, we may be required to significantly curtail or cease operations. Our history of operating losses and lack of binding financing commitments raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
We currently do not have any binding commitments for, or readily available sources of, additional financing. We may require additional cash due to changes in business conditions or other future developments, including any investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue.  To the extent it becomes necessary to raise additional cash in the future, we may seek to raise it through the sale of debt or equity securities, funding from joint-venture or strategic partners, debt financing or loans, issuance of common stock, or a combination of the foregoing.  We cannot provide any assurances that we will be able to secure the additional cash or working capital we may require to continue our operations, either now or in the future.

On June 2, 2011, Tianjin Zhonghuan Co., Ltd. (“Tianjin Zhonghuan”), an A-share listed company on China’s Shenzhen Stock Exchange announced that its Board of Directors approved the purchase of shares of our common stock for an aggregate purchase price of not more than $6.3 million.  Upon closing, Tianjin Zhonghuan will own a 35% stake in the Company. As of June 30, 2011, there is no definitive agreement, and we are in negotiations with Tianjin Zhonghuan to enter into a definitive agreement for this sale. There is no assurance that we will consummate the sale.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not entered into any other financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties.  We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as stockholder’s equity or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements.  Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity, or market risk support to such entity.  We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk, or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging, or research and development services with us.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
   
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
  
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer (Chief Executive Officer) and principal financial officer (Chief Financial Officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
 
Based on that evaluation, as of June 30, 2011, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures due to the following material weaknesses in internal control identified by management in our financial statement reporting process:
 
 
(i)
Lack of sufficient communications between our headquarters in Shanghai and our German subsidiary for timely resolutions on daily accounting issues and deficiencies in controls of financial reporting process; and

 
(ii)
Lack of sufficient U.S. GAAP knowledge, including experience and skills, of our accounting personnel for the accurate accounting of various business issues.

The material weaknesses were identified in October 2010. Management believes that these weaknesses have not been mitigated as of June 30, 2011.  We failed to assess the impact of certain modifications to contractual terms, which resulted in material revenue adjustments during the quarter. We have taken the following measures to remediate these material weaknesses:
 
 
(i)
Developed a rigorous process of communications between all persons involved in the financial reporting process and improved the quality of review of financial statements;
 
 
(ii)
Hired and outsourced additional financial reporting and accounting personnel with relevant account experience, skills, and knowledge in the preparation of financial statements under the requirements of U.S. GAAP and financial reporting disclosure pursuant to SEC rules; and
 
 
(iii)
Provided additional training and cross-training to our accounting personnel, including in the areas of new and emerging accounting standards.

 We plan on continuing to identify and implement remedial measures.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
