Basis of Presentation and Description of the Company

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Annec Green Refractories Corporation (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for interim financial information in pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial statements have been included.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto, together with management’s discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, contained in our Annual Report on Form 8-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on April 14, 2011. The results of operations for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ended December 31, 2011 or any other interim period. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include all wholly-owned subsidiaries and all subsidiaries over which the Company exercises the power and control to direct activities significantly impacting financial performance. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

On February 11, 2011, Annec Green Refractories Corporation, formerly E-Band Media, Inc. (E-Band Media) entered and closed a Share Exchange Agreement (Share Exchange Agreement), with certain shareholders and warrant holders, Dean Konstantine, Muzeyyen Balaban, Bernieta Masters, and Linda Masters, and with China Green Refractories Limited , a BVI corporation (“China Green”), and its shareholders, New-Source Group Limited, a BVI company, High-Sky Assets Management Limited, a BVI company, Joint Rise Investments Limited, a BVI company, Giant Harvest Investment Limited, a BVI company, and Mr. QIAN Yun Ting (collectively, the “China Green Shareholders”), pursuant to which E-Band Media acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of China Green in exchange for 19,220 shares of E-Band Media’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”). Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, E-Band Media agreed to affect a 1-for-14.375 reverse stock split (“Reverse Split”) of its outstanding common stock. The Reverse Stock Split was affected on April 18, 2011. In addition, pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the China Green Shareholders acquired all 10,000,000 shares of E-Band Media’s common stock from Dean Konstantine (“Controlled Shares”) and all outstanding warrants of E-Band Media from Muzeyyen Balaban, Bernieta Masters, and Linda Masters, representing warrants to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of our common stock (“Warrants”) for an aggregate purchase price of $250,000 and 100 shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by China Green Shareholders. The Warrants were cancelled by the China Green Shareholders pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement. As a result of the Share Exchange Agreement, the China Green Shareholders own 98% of our issued and outstanding common stock on an as-converted common stock basis as of and immediately after the effectiveness of the Reverse Split as contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement.

Basis of Presentation and Description of the Company, continued

The unaudited combined condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared with the effect of the merger of China Green and E-Band Media, Inc. as a reverse acquisition of assets and a recapitalization in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. For accounting purposes, China Green is considered to be acquiring E-Band Media, Inc. in the merger and E-Band Media,Inc. does not meet the definition of a business in accordance with ASC Topic 805-10, Business Combinations, because E-Band Media, Inc. had no material assets or liabilities at the time of closing of the merger and these assets and liabilities do not constitute a business pursuant to ASC Topic 805. Consequently, all of the assets and liabilities of E-Band Media, Inc. have been reflected in the financial statements at their respective fair values and no goodwill or other intangibles will be recorded as part of acquisition accounting and the cost of the merger is measured at net assets acquired.
 
History of E-Band Media, Inc.

E-Band Media was organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 29, 2010 as part of the implementation of the Chapter 11 plan of reorganization of AP Corporate Services, Inc. (AP). AP was incorporated in the State of Nevada in 1997 and was formed to provide a variety of services to small, entrepreneurial businesses. These services included business planning, market research, accounting advice, incorporation and resident agent services. Between 1997 and 1999 AP’s business focus changed. In addition to providing business services, AP began to own and develop businesses related to the medical professions. In 1999 AP organized E-Band Media.com with the intent of offering live “chat” consultations via the internet with nurses and physicians. A website was developed but it was unable to generate significant revenues and the site was terminated prior to AP’s bankruptcy filing in 2008.
 
AP filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy in September 2008 in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California. AP’s plan of reorganization was confirmed by the Court on December 24, 2009 and became effective on January 4, 2009. This plan of reorganization provided, among other things, for the incorporation of E-Band Media and the distribution of 1,085,000 shares in it to AP’s bankruptcy creditors. The shares were distributed pursuant to section 1145 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The plan also provided for the transfer to E-Band Media of any interest which AP and/or E-Band Media.com had in the development of a medical “chat” website.
 
As stated in the Plan of Reorganization ordered by the Court, these shares were issued “to enhance the distribution to creditors,” i.e. to enhance their opportunity to recover the losses they sustained in the AP bankruptcy. To this end, AP, by and through its President, agreed “to use its best efforts to have the shares publicly traded on the Over-The-Counter market in order to provide an opportunity for liquidity to the creditors” (from the Court approved “Disclosure Statement” describing the Plan of Reorganization). Subsequent to the effectiveness of the plan of reorganization the Company issued 10,000,000 restricted shares to its President, Dean Konstantine, at par value ($0.0001) for services rendered and costs advanced totaling $1,000.

History of E-Band Media, Inc., continued

On September 14, 2010, E-Band Media filed a Registration Statement on Form 10SB (File No.: 000-54117) with the SEC to register its common stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act. The Registration Statement went effective by operation of law on November 13, 2010, at which point E-Band became a reporting company under the Exchange Act.
 
On April 18, 2011, E-Band Media changed its name to Annec Green Refractories Corporation.
 
History of China Green Refractories Limited

China Green and its wholly-owned subsidiary Alex Industrial Investment Limited (Alex Industrial) were created for the sole purpose of conducting a reverse merger transaction with a U.S. public shell company. China Green was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands as a BVI Business Company on March 12, 2010. Under China Green’s Memorandum of Association, it is authorized to issue up to 50,000 shares of one class of stock with a par value of $1.00. Prior to the Share Exchange, there were a total of 102 shares of China Green stock, which was held by five shareholders. Each share was purchased for $1.00.

Alex Industrial was incorporated in Hong Kong on April 1, 2010 by China Green to acquire Zhengzhou Annec Industrial Co., Ltd. (Zhengzhou Annec) and Zhengzhou Annec’s subsidiary Annec (Beijing) Engineering Technology Co., Ltd. (Beijing Annec). Under Alex Industrial’s Memorandum of Association, the capital of Alex Industrial is divided into 10,000 shares at $1.00 each. On March 26, 2010, China Green purchased 100 founder shares in the amount of $100. On January 14, 2011, China Green purchased all of the outstanding shares of Zhengzhou for the total consideration of $2,980,998. As a result of this transaction, the controlling equity holders of Zhengzhou Annec continued to hold 98% of the outstanding equity of Zhengzhou Annec through their direct or beneficial ownership of China Green. Accordingly, this transaction was accounted for as an exchange among related parties and all assets and liabilities were transferred at their net book value.

Zhengzhou Annec was established in 2003, a Company Limited registered in Xinmi city Henan province in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”) with initial registered capital of $730 thousand. On October 8, 2003, the shareholders of Zhengzhou Annec reached a resolution to increase the registered capital of Zhengzhou Annec from $730 thousand to $3.0 million. On January 14, 2011, Zhengzhou became the wholly owned subsidiary of Alex Industrial and accordingly became a wholly-foreign owned enterprise (WFOE) under Chinese law.

History of China Green Refractories Limited, continued

Beijing Annec was established in January 2008 in Xuanwu district Beijing as a Company Limited, registered in Beijing, PRC, with approximately $900 thousand as its initial registered capital. In 2010, Beijing Annec’s registered capital was increased from $900 thousand to approximately $2.8 million. 100% of Beijing Annec’s equity is owned or controlled through assignment by Fuchao Li. On January 16, 2011, Beijing Annec entered into a contractual agreement, or the VIE agreement, with Zhengzhou Annec. The VIE Agreement includes the following arrangements:

 
(1)
Exclusive Business Cooperation Agreement (Cooperation Agreement), where Zhengzhou Annec, in general, becomes Beijing Annec’s exclusive services provider to provide Beijing Annec with business support and technical and consulting services in exchange for annual service fee equal to all of Beijing Annec’s audited total net income for such year;
 
 
(2)
Equity Interest Pledge Agreement (Pledge Agreement) under which Fuchao Li the 100% owner of all of the equity interest in Beijing Annec, has pledged all of his equity interest in Beijing Annec to Zhengzhou Annec as a guarantee of Beijing Annec’s performance of its obligations under the Cooperation Agreement;
 
 
(3)
Exclusive Option Agreement (Option Agreement) under which Fuchao Li grants Zhengzhou Annec an irrevocable right and option to acquire any and all of Mr. Li’s equity interest in Beijing Annec, as and when permitted by PRC laws, for an exercise price equal to the actual capital contributions paid in the registered capital of Beijing Annec by Mr. Li unless an appraisal is required by applicable PRC laws; and
 
 
(4)
Power of Attorney (POA) under which Mr. Li grants Zhengzhou Annec the right to (i) attend shareholders meetings of Beijing Annec, (ii) exercise all of Mr. Li shareholder’s rights and shareholder’s voting rights in Beijing Annec, including, but not limited to the sale or transfer or pledge or disposition of his stock in whole or in part, and (iii) designate and appoint on Mr. Li’s behalf the legal representative, the executive director and/or director, supervisor, the chief executive officer and other senior management of Beijing Annec.

As a result of the foregoing structure, we control 100% of Beijing Annec and have rights to all of Beijing Annec’s audited total net income for such year revenues. In addition to the VIE agreement, 96.3% of the equity ownership, as of December 31, 2010, of Beijing Annec is controlled by shareholders nominated by Zhengzhou Annec and Mr. Li. The remaining 3.7% of the equity is owned by Mr. Li. Thus, Beijing Annec is treated as a 100% owned subsidiary for accounting purposes.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents cash that is held by the banks as collateral for notes payable. The banks generally have collateral requirements ranging from 50% to 100% of the outstanding notes payable. At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company has about 100% and 83% of the outstanding notes payable balances held by the banks as collateral.

Concentration of Credit and Other Risks

Financial instruments which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, restricted cash, bank notes receivable, accounts receivable and other receivable. The Company holds all its bank deposits with banks in China. In China, there is no equivalent federal deposit insurance as in the United States; as such, these amounts held in banks in China are not insured. The Company has not experienced any losses in such bank accounts through September 30, 2011. In an effort to mitigate any potential risk, the Company periodically evaluates the credit quality of the financial institutions which hold the bank deposits and the Company holds its cash in multiple banks supported by the local and Central Government of the PRC.

The Company does not require collateral or other security to support the trade receivables. We are exposed to credit risk in the event of nonpayment by customers to the extent of amounts recorded on the balance sheet. One customer accounted for 25% and 15% of our trade receivables, retentions receivable and long-term retentions receivable balance as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. An additional customer accounted for 16% and 33% of trade receivables, retentions receivable and long-term retentions receivable balance as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Concentration of Credit and Other Risks, continued
 
Two customers individually accounted for 38% and 13% of our revenue in the three month periods ended September 30, 2011. Two customers individually accounted for 34% and 10% of our revenue in the three month periods ended September 30, 2010. One customer individually accounted for 30% of our revenue in the nine month periods ended September 30, 2011. Two customers individually accounted for 13% and 13% of our revenue in the nine month periods ended September 30, 2010.
 
Other receivables are comprised of three categories: receivables from individuals (both employees and other individuals), receivables from other companies and security deposits for large contracts, all of which are generally unsecured. The Company is required to advance a security deposit or retentions in certain percentages generally approximately 10% of sales contract value to its customers.  Retentions will be returned to the Company upon the completion of the projects. For certain long term customers, prior retentions amounts are carried over to different projects with the same customers.

The operations of the Company are located in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economical, and legal environment in the PRC. The Chinese Government controls its foreign currency reserves through restrictions on imports and conversion of Renminbi (RMB) into foreign currency. In July 2005, the Chinese Government adjusted its exchange rate policy from “Fixed Rate” to “Floating Rate.” During January 2008 to September 2011, the exchange rate between RMB and U.S. Dollars (USD) has fluctuated from USD $1.00 to RMB 7.3141 and USD $1.00 to RMB 6.4018, respectively. There can be no assurance that the exchange rate will remain stable. The Renminbi could appreciate or depreciate against the U.S. Dollar. The Company’s financial condition and results of operations may also be affected by changes in the value of certain currencies other than the Renminbi in which its earnings and obligations are denominated.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist mainly of cash, restricted cash, bank notes receivable, other receivables, and debt obligations. Other receivable are reflected in the accompanying financial statements at historical cost, which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans and similar terms and average maturities, the fair value of debt obligations also approximates its carrying value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. While the Company believes its valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.  The Company had no assets or liabilities measured at fair value and subject to the disclosure requirements based on the fair value hierarchy.

Government Assistance

The Company is currently the beneficiary of government grants that are generally intended to be used towards capital technology improvement with the end goal of increased production and energy efficiency. These grants are recorded as deferred income in the liabilities section of the balance sheet when cash is received and are accreted into nonoperating income over the life of the asset, to the extent that the grant is related to an asset. For grants not related to any assets in certain cases, the Company records non-operating income when earned. The government grant income included in other income amounted to approximately $51,040 and $8,271 for the three month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and approximately $191,246 and $26,581 for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
Foreign Currency Translation

The accompanying financial statements are presented in United States Dollars. The functional currency of our Company is the Renminbi, the official currency of the PRC. Capital accounts of the financial statements are translated into United States Dollars from RMB at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates as of the balance sheet date. Income and expenditures are translated at the average exchange rates for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. For all periods reported, there were no transactions outside the PRC; thus, all of our transactions are in RMB, our functional currency. Currency translation adjustments from translation to U.S. Dollars for financial reporting purposes are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of equity.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s principal revenue sources are from the sale of refractory materials and products and from sales generated from the designing and building of blast furnaces and hot-air stoves.

Zhengzhou Annec generates revenue from the sale of a variety of refractory bricks and the sales from kits of pre-assembled hot-air ovens. Zhengzhou Annec recognizes revenue when: (1) there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement; (2) customers have accepted receipt of the goods in accordance with the shipping terms; (3) the amount to be paid by the customer is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Zhengzhou Annec recognizes revenue from the sale of a kit when the kit has been delivered and accepted by the client.

Beijing Annec enters into contracts to design and build blast furnaces and hot-air stoves and recognizes revenues during the construction period using the percentage of completion method. Most of the contracts are fixed-price contracts, which typically provide for a stated contract price and a specified scope of the work to be performed. Beijing Annec estimates the percentage of the job that is complete using variations of the cost-to-cost method. Cost is used as the primary indicator, but the Company also considers contract milestones and work in progress from subcontractor companies. If the estimate of costs left to be incurred plus actual costs already incurred exceeds the total revenue to be expected from a contract, then the full amount of the difference is recognized in the current period as a loss and presented on the consolidated balance sheet as a current liability. Beijing Annec also generates revenue from the sale of a variety of machines and equipment which the Company purchases from vendors. Beijing Annec recognized revenue from this type of sale when the machines and equipments have been delivered and accepted by the client.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are recorded net of the amount collected. Shipping and handling expense included in selling expenses amounted to $1,532,903 and $581,029 for the three month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $4,642,913 and $2,310,353 for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-29, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations. ASU 2010-29 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. The amendments in this Update also expand 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. Early adoption is permitted. We do not expect adoption of this standard to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-28, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): When to Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts. ASU 2010-28 modifies Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test so that for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts, an entity is required to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test if it is more likely than not based on an assessment of qualitative indicators that goodwill impairment exists. In determining whether it is more likely than not that goodwill impairment exists, an entity should consider whether there are any adverse qualitative factors indicating that impairment may exist. ASU 2010-28 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is not permitted. We do not expect adoption of this standard to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements, continued

In January 2010, the FASB issued accounting standards update on fair value measurement and disclosures, adding new requirements for disclosures for Levels 1 and 2, separate disclosures and purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements relating to Level 3 measurements and clarification of existing fair value disclosures. This update was effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide Level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements–a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force. ASU 2009-13 addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (“deliverables”) separately rather than as a combined unit. Specifically, this guidance amends the criteria in the “Revenue Recognition – Multiple-Element Arrangements” subtopic of the Codification for separating consideration in multiple-deliverable arrangements. This guidance establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which is based on:
 
(a) vendor-specific objective evidence; (b) third-party evidence; or (c) estimates. This guidance also eliminates the residual method of allocation and requires that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of the arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method. In addition, this guidance significantly expands required disclosures related to a vendor’s multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. ASU 2009-13 is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with the option to provide retrospective presentation for prior years. The adoption of this standard will not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Reverse Merger

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared with the effect of the merger of Annec Green Refractories Corporation, formerly E-Band Media and China Green as a reverse acquisition and a recapitalization; therefore, China Green, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and the consolidated VIE will be deemed to be the acquiring company for accounting purposes.  Stockholders’ equity and earnings per share of the Company has been retroactively restated to reflect the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding retroactively as if the merger had taken place at the earliest period presented.  The offset was applied to additional paid in capital.
 
Earnings per share
 
Basis and diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income for the period by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period which includes the effect of the 1 – for – 14.375 reverse stock split stipulated in the Share Exchange Agreement and the automatic conversion of the 19,220 Series A preferred shares into common stock at a 1- for – 1,000 conversion rate.

 Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.  In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs.  Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements.  Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. See also Risk Factors contained in our amended current report on Form 8-K/A filed on May 11, 2011.

Overview Business
 
We are a refractory and production-based company that designs, develops, produces, and markets refractory products.  All of our current business operations are conducted through our wholly-foreign owned Chinese subsidiary, Zhengzhou Annec Industrial Co., Ltd. (“Zhengzhou Annec”) and our variable interest entity, Annec (Beijing) Engineering Technology Co., Ltd. (“Beijing Annec”).

Through our subsidiary, Zhengzhou Annec, we are primarily engaged in the manufacture, design, development, sale, installation, and maintenance of refractory materials and products. Zhengzhou Annec’s primary products are heat shock bricks for internal, top, and external combustion hot air stoves, high alumina brick with heat shock, cordierite-mullite bricks, non-recasting, soft and high-heating andalusite brick, and silica bricks with high thermal conductivity and high density. Zhengzhou Annec produces refractory products through three factories in the Henan Province, PRC: Fuliang, Fuhua, and Fugang.   Through a contractual agreement, between Zhengzhou Annec and Beijing Annec, we design and build blast furnaces and hot air stoves, and act as a general contractor working with outside construction companies which serve as sub-contractors. Beijing Annec also derives revenue from technology research and development, graphic design, production, engineering and technical consulting, and sales of building materials.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition are based upon our financial statements.  These statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  These principles require management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and related notes.  See Note 2 to our financial statements, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.”  We believe that the following paragraphs reflect our most critical accounting policies that currently affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents cash that is held by the banks as collateral for notes payable. The banks generally have collateral requirements ranging from 50% to 100% of the outstanding notes payable. At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company has about 100% and 83% of the outstanding notes payable balances held by the banks as collateral.

Concentration of Credit and Other Risks

Financial instruments which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, restricted cash, bank notes receivable, accounts receivable and other receivable. The Company holds all its bank deposits with banks in China. In China, there is no equivalent federal deposit insurance as in the United States; as such, these amounts held in banks in China are not insured. The Company has not experienced any losses in such bank accounts through September 30, 2011. In an effort to mitigate any potential risk, the Company periodically evaluates the credit quality of the financial institutions which hold the bank deposits and the Company holds its cash in multiple banks supported by the local and Central Government of the PRC.

 
23

 
 
The Company does not require collateral or other security to support the trade receivables. We are exposed to credit risk in the event of nonpayment by customers to the extent of amounts recorded on the balance sheet. One customer accounted for 25% and 15% of our trade receivables, retentions receivable and long-term retentions receivable balance as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. An additional customer accounted for 16% and 33% of trade receivables, retentions receivable and long-term retentions receivable balance as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Two customers individually accounted for 38% and 13% of our revenue in the three month periods ended September 30, 2011. Two customers individually accounted for 34% and 10% of our revenue in the three month periods ended September 30, 2010. One customer individually accounted for 30% of our revenue in the nine month periods ended September 30, 2011. Two customers individually accounted for 13% and 13% of our revenue in the nine month periods ended September 30, 2010.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s principal revenue sources are from the sale of refractory materials and products and from sales generated from the designing and building of blast furnaces and hot-air stoves.

Zhengzhou Annec generates revenue from the sale of a variety of refractory bricks and the sales from kits of pre-assembled hot-air ovens. Zhengzhou Annec recognizes revenue when: (1) there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement; (2) customers have accepted receipt of the goods in accordance with the shipping terms; (3) the amount to be paid by the customer is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Zhengzhou Annec recognizes revenue from the sale of a kit when the kit has been delivered and accepted by the client.

Beijing Annec enters into contracts to design and build blast furnaces and hot-air stoves and recognizes revenues during the construction period using the percentage of completion method. Most of the contracts are fixed-price contracts, which typically provide for a stated contract price and a specified scope of the work to be performed. Beijing Annec estimates the percentage of the job that is complete using variations of the cost-to-cost method. Cost is used as the primary indicator, but the Company also considers contract milestones and work in progress from subcontractor companies. Beijing Annec also generates revenue from the sale of a variety of machines and equipment which the Company purchases from vendors. Beijing Annec recognized revenue from this type of sale when the machines and equipments have been delivered and accepted by the client.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
We had retained earnings of $26,000,245 and $20,700,451 as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. 

As of September 30, 2011, we had cash and restricted cash of $3,635,502 and total current assets of $107,245,946 compared to cash and restricted cash of $5,930,138, and total current assets of $64,397,444 as of December 31, 2010.  Restricted cash is used to secure bank notes. At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had approximately 100% and 83% respectively of the outstanding notes payable balances held by banks as collateral.
 
As of September 30, 2011, we had accounts receivable of $28,966,047 representing 27% of our total current assets, compared to $16,130,117, representing 25% of total current assets as of December 31, 2010.  As of September 30, 2011, accounts receivable increased $12,835,930 or 80% compared to December 31, 2010 as a result of increased sales.

Inventory has increased to $38,649,235 at September 30, 2011, from $25,703,214 at December 31, 2010. The Company had increase in sales in the quarter ended September 30, 2011, which increased the inventory level in order to fulfill orders. The inventory consists of final-products awaiting shipment, semi-finished products and raw materials.   The Company believes that it will be able to convert inventory into cash within 6 to 18 months.

As of September 30, 2011, loans payable to related parties increased by $1,439,960, or 157%, compared to December 31, 2010.  At September 30, 2011, the Company had loans payable to the related parties as follows: $604,336 to Mr. LI Fuchao, our chairman, $1,562,061 to Mr. LI Jiantao, our president, chief executive officer and chief financial officer, and $190,571 to Mr. FAN Yinling, a minority shareholder.  The loans were made for working capital purposes to purchase raw materials and to expand production capacity. This loans from related parties do not carry interest and are payable at the request of the lender.

Our total liabilities as of September 30, 2011 was $98,621,633 compared to $62,171,032 as of December 31, 2010.  The increase of $36,450,601, or 59%, was a result of increase in accounts payables, advances from customer and other payables. Advances from customer have increased $20,845,308, or 90%, compared to December 31, 2010 primarily due to increased orders. Accounts payables and accrued expenses increased by $12,578,871, or 112% compared to December 31, 2010 primarily because of increased purchases of raw materials from vendors. Other payables which consist of payables to individuals for employee borrowing for working capital purposes increased by $262,370, or 14% compared to December 31, 2010.

As of September 30, 2011, we had working capital of $12,459,001 and as of December 31, 2010, we had working capital of $6,300,513. We believe our cash and accounts receivable are adequate to satisfy our working capital needs and sustain our ongoing operations for the next twelve months.  However, even if we believe that our cash reserves are sufficient to sustain operations, we must raise additional capital by the sale of our securities and/or financing in order to implement our strategic growth plans which include increasing our product line, promoting our design and engineering services, improving our products, and the potential acquisitions of mines and other refractory companies.
 
We have had preliminary discussions for additional investments by existing and prospective investors but we have no funding commitments in place at this time and we can give no assurance that such capital will be available on favorable terms, or at all.   Even if we are successful in raising additional funds, there is no assurance regarding the terms of any additional investment and any such investment or other strategic alternative would likely substantially dilute or eliminate the interests of our stockholders.

Loan Facilities

           In China, banks usually do not provide long term loans to businesses. Most loans are short term loans (12 months or less). All of our loans with Chinese banks are for a period of twelve months. As such, each year we repay our loans and/or apply for new loans with our banks or with other banks for working capital needs.  At September 30, 2011, we borrowed approximately $12 million from various short-term bank loans for the working capital needs and repaid approximately $3.1 million. All of our bank borrowings are secured by our land and buildings and/or guaranteed by third parties. As of September 30, 2011, the Company and its subsidiaries have the following loan facilities with the following terms:

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Under SEC regulations, we are required to disclose our off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, such as changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. An off-balance sheet arrangement means a transaction, agreement or contractual arrangement to which any entity that is not consolidated with us is a party, under which we have:

 
·
Any obligation under certain guarantee contracts;
 
 
 
·
Any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to that entity for such assets;
 
 
 
·
Any obligation under a contract that would be accounted for as a derivative instrument, except that it is both indexed to our stock and classified in stockholder’s equity in our statement of financial position; and
 
 
 
·
Any obligation arising out of a material variable interest held by us in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to us, or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.
  
In China, because the bank lending system is still relatively new, it is common practice for companies to enter into cross-guarantee arrangements in order to secure lines of credit with banks.  Zhengzhou Annec entered into agreements as a debt guarantor during 2010 for six unaffiliated companies (“Unaffiliated Companies”).  We do not consolidate the Unaffiliated Companies into our financial statements.   In China, companies provide guarantees to other companies in the community to assist them in getting bank loans. The guaranteed amount is approximately $7,810,303 as of September 30, 2011. In exchange, the other unaffiliated companies also act as a debt guarantor for Zhengzhou Annec. As of September 30, 2011, Zhengzhou Annec's loans guaranteed by other unaffiliated companies are approximately $4,686,182. Zhengzhou Annec has not historically incurred any losses due to such debt guarantees. Additionally, Zhengzhou Annec has determined that the fair value of the guarantees is immaterial.
