ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

Business Development 

Overview
 
We were incorporated in Nevada on March 27, 2001 under the name Jasmine's Garden. Currently, we operate our business through our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Billion Electronic Co., Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands on July 27, 2004 (“Billion”), Shenzhen E'Jenie Technology Development Co., Ltd, a company incorporated under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”) on July 8, 2002 (“E’Jenie”), Shenzhen NewPower Technology Co., Ltd. (“NewPower”), a company organized under the laws of the PRC in 2004, Anytone International (H.K.) Co., Ltd. (“Anytone International”), a company organized under the laws of Hong Kong in 2009, Shenzhen Anytone Technology Co., Ltd. (“Shenzhen Anytone”), a company incorporated under the laws of the PRC in 2005, and Shenzhen Kim Fai Solar Energy Technology Co., Ltd. ("Kim Fai"), a company organized under the laws of the PRC in 2005.
 
Currently, after disposing of two decreasing businesses, we are focused on our mobile power, solar panels and solar related applications business. Our mobile power products provide backup power to various leading consumer electronic devices in the market. These mobile power products are mainly sold under our own brand name, Anytone in China but also through private labels internationally. Besides the sales of solar panels, our solar business is focused on integration of solar power and lithium ion battery storage to create solar consumer electronic products .
 
On November 15, 2004, we acquired Billion and its wholly-owned operating subsidiary, E’Jenie. Through E'Jenie, we manufacture and distribute lithium battery shells and related products primarily in China. Based upon specifications from its customers E'Jenie develops, customizes and produces steel, aluminum battery shells and aluminum caps. Currently, E'Jenie produces fourteen steel battery shell lines, nine aluminum battery shell lines, three aluminum battery cap lines and three steel battery cap lines.

On June 28, 2006, we acquired Galaxy View and its wholly-owned operating subsidiary Sono Digital Electronic Technologies Co., Ltd., a company incorporated under the laws of the People’s Republic of China on May 29, 2001 (“Sono”). As described below in our Corporate History, Galaxy View entered into an Agreement on Transfer of Shares with Lui Changqing and Wang Feng. As a result of this agreement, Galaxy View and Sono were spun-off from the Company and is no longer a subsidiary of the Company.

In August, 2008, we entered into a related business field, battery assembly and finished battery distribution, to diversify our line of products. We purchase batteries from suppliers, package and sell these batteries under E’Jenie’s brand name to other mobile device OEM manufacturers. These are all lithium ion batteries and have various models for different kinds of portable electronic devices.

On December 7, 2009 we acquired Anytone International and its wholly owned operating subsidiary Shenzhen Anytone, a company incorporated under the laws of the People’s Republic of China in 2005.  Shenzhen Anytone is the Chinese operating subsidiary of Anytone International, collectively referred to as “Anytone”. Anytone engages in research, manufacture and sell of mobile backup power systems for mobile phones, laptops, solar, MP4, PMPs, PDAs, DC and digital applications.

On January 12, 2010, we closed the transactions contemplated by the share exchange agreement dated December 11, 2009 with NewPower.  Pursuant to the share exchange agreement, the Company’s subsidiary E’Jenie acquired NewPower. The Company issued the shareholders of NewPower, proportionally among the NewPower Shareholders in accordance with their respective ownership interests in NewPower immediately before the closing of the share exchange, 1,823,346 shares of the Company’s common stock with a restrictive legend, and $3,000,000. NewPower is engaged in manufacturing and distribution of lithium batteries.

  On November 24, 2011, the Company entered into an equity transfer agreement to transfer 100% of the equity interest of Billion, including its subsidiaries E’Jenie and NewPower, for a cash consideration of RMB 85,553,892.75 (approximately $13,549,443).

Corporate History

Until December 2, 2003, we operated a nationwide wholesale and retail business selling greeting cards, note cards and gift tags made from a design process involving photography and computer graphics. On December 2, 2003, Cheering Limited, an investment holding company organized under the laws of the British Virgin Islands ("Cheering"), acquired 5,700,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001, which constituted approximately 95% of the then issued and outstanding shares of our common stock from Jack and Jasmine Gregory, our former officers and directors, for cash of $221,221 (the "Cheering Transaction").

On March 17, 2004, we sold 30,000,000 shares of common stock at a per share purchase price of $0.05 to seven unaffiliated individuals in a private placement, which yielded $1,500,000 (the "Private Placement"). As a condition to the closing of the Private Placement, each of the investors executed an irrevocable proxy granting Mr. Sun, our former President and Chief Executive Officer, the right to vote all shares of the common stock purchased in the Private Placement. The irrevocable proxies expired on May 1, 2004, however, the investors and Mr. Sun extended the irrevocable proxies to May 2006. Mr. Sun as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Cheering is the beneficial owner of the 5,700,000 shares of common stock, which represents approximately 7.8%, of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock and prior to the expiration of the irrevocable proxies, Mr. Sun will have the power to vote or direct the voting of 30,000,000 shares issued in the Private Placement. As a result, until the irrevocable proxies expire on May 1, 2006, Mr. Sun will control approximately 48.9% of our issued and outstanding common stock.

On April 28, 2004, we filed a certificate of amendment to our articles of incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of State to increase our authorized common stock to 140,000,000 shares and to authorize 60,000,0000 shares, par value $0.001, of blank check preferred stock.
 
On September 3, 2004, we filed a certificate of amendment to our articles of incorporation with the Nevada Secretary of State to change our name from "Jasmine's Garden" to "China Digital Communication Group."

In connection with the acquisition of Galaxy View, the Company issued Series A Preferred Stock to the selling shareholders.  On June 29, 2006, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada a Certificate of Designation of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock designating 7,575,757 of the Company’s previously authorized preferred stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock entitles the holder to seven votes per share on all matters to be voted on by the shareholders of the Company and is mandatorily convertible into one tenth of one share of the Company’s common stock on June 29, 2011 (after providing for the July 13, 2009, 10-to-1 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock). Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall, with respect to rights on liquidation, dissolution or winding up, ranks (i) on a parity with the Company’s common stock, and (ii) junior to any other class of the Company’s preferred stock.  Series A Preferred Stock is not entitled to any preferred dividend. However, the preferred shareholders will share the dividend on common stock proportionately if and when the dividend on Common Stock is declared.

On July 13, 2009, we effected a 10-to-1 reverse split of our common stock.

Effective November 18, 2009 we changed our name from China Digital Communication Group to New Energy Systems Group.
 
On October 20, 2010, the Company filed an Amendment to its Certification of Designations, Preferences and Rights for its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. As a result of the Amendment, which was approved by Company's board of directors and a majority of the Series A holders, the Series A is convertible at the option of the holder until June 29, 2011, when every ten (10) issued and outstanding shares of Series A shall be automatically convertible into one (1) share of common stock (on a post-split basis). Additionally, the Series A shall continue to be subject to a lock-up provision through June 29, 2011, provided, however, that the common stock issuable upon the optional conversion of the Series A shall not be subject to such lock-up limitations.

Acquisition of Billion

On November 15, 2004, pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Billion Exchange Agreement") dated as of September 17, 2004, by and among the Company, Billion, the shareholders of Billion (the "Billion Shareholders") and E'Jenie, we acquired from the Billion Shareholders (the "Billion Acquisition") all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Billion (the "Billion Shares"). Billion is a holding company and the sole shareholder of E'Jenie. Billion has no other assets other than the shares of E'Jenie. As consideration for the Billion Shares, we paid to the Billion Shareholders $1,500,000 in cash and issued to them 4,566,210 shares of our common stock. The consideration for the Billion Acquisition was determined through arms length negotiations between us and Billion. As a result of the Billion Acquisition we are the sole shareholder of Billion through which we own all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of E'Jenie.

In connection with the Billion Acquisition we entered into a Guarantee Agreement, dated October 9, 2004, as amended October 11, 2004 (the "Guarantee"), with Shiji Ruichen Guaranty and Investment Co. Ltd., a company incorporated under the laws of the Peoples Republic of China ("Shiji"). Pursuant to the terms of the Guarantee, Shiji agreed to guarantee our performance and the performance of the Billion Shareholders under the Billion Exchange Agreement. As consideration for Shiji's guaranty, we issued to Shiji 1,919,016 shares of our common stock. As security for our obligations under the Guarantee, one of our principal shareholders deposited 5,000,000 of their shares of our common stock into escrow.
 
Acquisition of Galaxy View
 
On June 29, 2006, pursuant to the terms of a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Galaxy View Exchange Agreement") dated as of March 22, 2006, by and among the Company, Galaxy View, the shareholders of Galaxy View (the " Galaxy View Shareholders") and Sono, we acquired from the Galaxy View Shareholders (the "Galaxy View Acquisition") all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Galaxy View (the "Galaxy View Shares"). As consideration for the Galaxy View Shares, we paid the Galaxy View Shareholders $3,000,000 in cash and issued to them 7,575,757 shares of our preferred stock. On a post-split basis, the consideration for the Acquisition was determined through arms length negotiations between us and Galaxy View.

During the first quarter of 2007, Sono lost two of their largest customers and users of their products. The fact that the telecom industry in China was a monopoly, there was no longer a market for our products.

On April 24, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement on Transfer of Shares of Galaxy View with Liu Changqing and Wang Feng (collectively, the "Purchasers”) for the sale of our wholly-owned subsidiary Galaxy View (the “Agreement”). Changqing purchased a 60% interest and Feng will purchase a 40% interest in Galaxy View. In exchange for all of the outstanding shares of Galaxy View, the Purchasers agreed to pay $3,000,000 as consideration for the acquisition. We entered into promissory notes with the Purchasers for payment of their share of the $3,000,000 which was due within 90 days of April 24, 2007. If payment was not made within 90 days, the promissory notes will accrue interest at 18% from the closing date. As of December 31, 2007, the amount has been paid in full.

Acquisition of Anytone

On December 7, 2009, we closed the transactions contemplated by the share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) dated November 19, 2009 with Anytone International and Anytone.  Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, we acquired Anytone International and thereby indirectly acquired Anytone International’s Chinese operating subsidiary Anytone.  Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, we issued to the shareholders of Anytone International, proportionally among the Anytone International Shareholders in accordance with their respective ownership interests in Anytone International immediately before the closing of the Share Exchange, an aggregate of 3,593,939 shares of our Common Stock with standard restrictive legend, and cash consideration of $10,000,000. As of December 31, 2009, $5,000,000 has been paid. The Company paid the remaining $5,000,000 before June 30, 2010.

Acquisition of Kim Fai
 
On November 10, 2010, the Company’s subsidiary, Shenzhen Anytone, executed a share exchange agreement (the “Kim Fai Share Exchange Agreement”) to acquire all the equity interest of Kim Fai, a Chinese company engaged in the technology development and sale of solar application products and solar energy batteries ("Kim Fai"), with all of the shareholders of Kim Fai.  The purchase price for 100% of the outstanding stock of Kim Fai was $24,000,000, of which $13,000,000 is to be paid in cash and $11,000,000 is to be paid in the form of shares of common stock of the Company.  The purchase consideration is payable as follows: (i) $13,000,000 to be paid in cash within one year of the execution of the Agreement, and (ii) $11,000,000 to be paid in shares of restricted common stock of the Company within 3 days of the completion of the share exchange formalities with the local governmental authorities.  Pursuant to the Kim Fai Share Exchange Agreement, such shares are to be issued with a per share price of $5.75 and amount to an aggregate of 1,913,265 shares of restricted common stock. However, in accordance with guidance FASB ASC 805-30-30-7, the per share price is $7.84, the fair market value of the stock on the date the transaction under the Kim Fair Share Exchange Agreement closed, which was November 10, 2010. As of December 31, 2010, $6,529,286 has been paid and 1,913,265 shares have been issued.

Our Business

LITHIUM BATTERIES
Industry

The lithium battery was created in the 1990s, with its first mass production in 1993 in Japan. Lithium batteries were first used in notebook computers and now are used in cellular phones, video machines, laptops, digital cameras, MP3 players, global positioning satellite systems, 3G communication devices, hybrid cars and an array of other electronic products.

Batteries are becoming smaller, lighter, more efficient, longer lasting and free of pollution. The lithium battery's energy/weight ratio exceeds that of its counterparts and with an excellent safety standard we believe that it is the future of the battery industry. According to Market Research, the market for lithium ion battery is expected to reach $43 billion by 2020. China has become one of the largest producers and consumers of lithium ion batteries. We anticipate that there will be even greater demand for lithium batteries in China and worldwide in the next few years. We believe that the current trend towards smaller, lighter portable consumer products will continue to grow and because of its size, the demand for the lithium battery will increase. By way of example, a mobile-phone battery has a typical usage life of 300 to 500 recharges, which translates to a ratio of 1.8 batteries in service life of each phone, according to official Chinese statistics. However, our internal data reveals that battery replacement demand is faster than this when consumers turn in their phones for new models before the normal life of the battery is over. A short product life, combined with a short product innovation cycle, result in rapid product turnover – and plenty of business for battery suppliers.

Mobile power is lithium ion batteries’ application products. Currently, more and more advanced portable consumer electronic products are introduced to the market, such as laptops, smartphones and tablet PCs. All of these high technology products consume a great amount of power. The original single lithium ion batteries are not enough to support these products. Mobile power is the solution. Mobile power appeared 8 years ago and became popular and competitive in the recent years. The increasing competition is due to 1) increased demand – many consumers have more than one portable consumer electronic devices and they need power support; 2) higher profits – compare to original lithium ion battery, mobile power is still a new product and have batter profit; 3) low technology limit – a mobile power includes three major components which are battery cell, PCB and case and based on the pioneers’ technologies, most of lithium ion battery related manufacturers can enter the market easily; 4) no industry standards – mobile power is still a new business in the lithium ion battery industry without official standards; 5) no protection for intelligent property - the counterfeit or exaggerate products are sold all over the market. However, we believe that this disorderly and competitive market is an inevitable stage during the development of the market. Once the consumers gather enough knowledge about these new products and the government establishes the official industry standards, those pioneering companies such as Anytone who has accumulated experiences with quality products will be the winners in the mobile power industry.
 
Currently, China has around 940 million mobile phone subscribers, more than the sum of the United States (“US”) and European subscribers. It is the country with the largest mobile market in the world. The mobile phone market in China is expected to maintain its growth, especially the market of smartphones.
 
China's smartphone market is projected to grow 94% from 52.2 million units in 2011 to 101.4 million units in 2012, according to a recent report by market research firm iSuppli.  In addition, although the growing speed will start to moderate from next year, expansion will remain in the double digit until 2015, when shipment is estimated to be 188.4 million units in total.    
 
Business Strategy

We seek to maintain our position as a provider of mobile power, solar panels and solar related application products. In addition, we are looking to strengthen our branded mobile power products while increasing the breadth of our product line, improving the quality of our products, and reducing production cost. In order to achieve our objective, we plan to pursue the key strategies described below.
 
 
·
Successfully restructure the Company’s current segments.
 
 
·
Improve sales and profitability of all companies.

 
·
Increasing our international presence and expand international focus.

 
·
Achieving deeper penetration of our existing customer base through continued innovation and high quality production and maximize cross-selling opportunities and synergies.

Principal Products

Anytone

Anytone is an innovative company which integrates R&D and marketing functions in one entity. In addition, Anytone is the first company in China that engages in the development and distribution of portable mobile power products. These products are primarily used in portable consumer electronic devices, such as smartphones, digital cameras, digital camcorders, MP3 players, PMP, PDA, and PSP, to help to solve a common problem of these devices: the low capacity and un-changeability of their batteries.

Anytone's products combine aesthetics with technology. Anytone has acquired a total of 60 existing and pending patents from the State Intellectual Property Office of the PRC: 42 patents have been obtained for the appearance design of our products, with 2 additional applications pending, while 7 patents have been obtained for certain innovative utility models, with 8 additional applications pending and 1 pending application for the invention.

               Anytone’s mobile power backup products include 4 major series as follows:

·
Cell Phone Series. Through a universal connector, Anytone’s mobile power backup products can charge most major cell phones currently in the market. In addition, Anytone’s products support the “Made for iPhone, iPod and iPad” devices.

·
 Digital Camera and Camcorder Series. This series has a higher capacity to be used for digital cameras, camcorders and similar devices. This series of products also combines a universal connector which can support most major brand digital devices currently in the market.

·
Solar Energy Series. As an environmentally friendly company, Anytone also provides green energy products through its solar energy series. These products recharge itself by absorbing solar energy through universal connectors to provide most digital devices currently in the market extra battery life.

·
Laptop Series. This series has sufficient power capacity to support small digital mobile devices and the power needed by most of the laptops currently in the market.

Anytone’s mobile power backup products are primarily sold to end-users directly through its distribution channels’ retail networks under its own brand name in China and other counties through OEM. Anytone is one of the leading companies  in the mobile power backup industry and has already established its brand reputation and market position in China.

Anytone produces a small amount of products for testing purposes. Its major production occurs by outsourcing to third parties’ facilities. Anytone’s advantages are in R&D and marketing. In addition, its products are focused on the end-users customers. Therefore, Anytone believes that through outsourcing its production, it can more focus on R&D and marketing to meet the end-user customers’ needs.

Kim Fai

Kim Fai primarily produces solar panels and other solar-related products such as solar lights, solar street lights, solar traffic lights, solar landscape lights, solar power system equipment and other solar related application products.

Competition

The worldwide market for lithium batteries is highly competitive. We face competition from manufacturers not only within China but also from other parts of the world, particularly Japan, Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Korea. We compete with these companies by striving to provide a higher quality product at a lower cost. For mobile power devices, Anytone’s primary competitors in domestic are Qunzan Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Hali-Power Industrial Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Top Communications Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Yoobao Technology Co., Ltd., and Guangdong Pisen Electronics Co., Ltd. Anytone’s primary competitors in foreign are Mophie Inc., iGo Inc., Japan Trust Technology Inc., and Mizco International Inc. For solar products, Kim Fai's primary competitors in domestic are Sunworth Solar Energy Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Suoyang New Energy Co., Ltd., Changzhou EGing Photovoltaic technology Co., Ltd., Shenzhen J.G.N Solar-Energy Co., Ltd., Zhongshan Warsony Sci-Tech Industries Co., Ltd., Zhongshan Yong’an Road Lamp Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Unilumin Technology Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Topray Solar Co., Ltd., and Dongguan Gi-Power New Energy Co., Ltd.  We believe that by doing business in China we enjoy competitive advantages over similar companies based elsewhere, such as abundant labor resources and low cost raw materials.
 
Manufacturing and Raw Materials

We purchase various battery components and raw materials for use in our manufacturing processes.

Anytone’s major products are mobile power devices of various models, each of which needs different components. These components include, but are not limited to, solar panels, solar batteries, PCB, Polymer batteries, lithium ion batteries, LCD, and LED emitters. In 2011, Anytone diversified its suppliers widely. The largest supplier if Anytone, Shenzhen Deli Battery Co., Ltd., who supplied batteries accounted for 5% of the Company’s total purchases in 2011. Compared to 2010, two of Anytone’s largest suppliers, Shenzhen Guanghaoyu Electronics Co., Ltd., which supplies solar panels and solar batteries, and Shenzhen BAK Battery Co., Ltd. which is Anytone’s largest supplier for PCB, Lithium battery, Polymer batteries, accounted for 10% and 9% of the Company’s total purchases in 2010, respectively.

Kim Fai's major products are solar traffic lights, landscape lights, solar panel and other related solar application products. These products need different components such as Mono-silicon, Poly-silicon and other solar related components. In 2011, the largest supplier of Kim Fai, Trony Solar Holdings Co., Ltd. who supplied silicon chips accounted for 8% of the Company’s total purchases. Due to the fact that Kim Fai was acquired in November of 2010, its purchases from its suppliers accounted for small percentage of our total purchases. In 2010, the largest supplier, Guangzhou Sumyok Solar Power Technology Co., Ltd. which provided Poly-silicon to Kim Fai, accounted for just 2% of the Company’s total purchases.

We disposed two of our subsidiaries, E’Jenie and NewPower in the November of 2011. Before being disposed of, in 2011, E’Jenie switched its finished battery pack business with NewPower’s battery cell business. As a result, two largest suppliers, Shenzhen Beiterui New Energy Material Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen Xinchongkai Technology Co., Ltd., accounted for 8% and 6% of the Company’s total purchases in 2011. The principal raw materials we purchased from these two suppliers for E’Jenie are LiCoO2, LiMn2O4 and electrolytes which were used for finished battery packs’ production. In 2010, the primary raw materials E’Jenie purchased for our battery shell and cover segment are aluminum and steel. The largest supplier for this segment was Shenzhen Yibao Tech. Co., Ltd. which accounted for 3% of our total purchases in 2010. In addition, for the batteries’ assembly and finished battery distribution business which we launched in August 2008, we also purchased battery components such as battery cells, packaging labels and other components from a number of suppliers. In 2010, our two major suppliers are Shenzhen NewPower Technology Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Handian Battery Materials Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen Huayi Aluminum Products Co., Ltd., which accounted for 10% and 6% of our total purchases, respectively. As a result of our acquisition of NewPower, NewPower became one of our principal suppliers. The sales from NewPower to E’Jenie and Anytone was eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NewPower switched its battery cells business with E’Jenie’s finished battery pack business in the beginning of 2011. As a result, the major raw materials which NewPower purchased for its finished battery pack business are battery cells. E’Jenie became NewPower’s major supplier who accounted for 26% of the Company’s total purchases in 2011. In 2010, NewPower’s major products are battery cells and batteries which need different components, including lithium cobalt oxide, lithium manganese oxide, electrolyte, copper, battery shells, battery caps and other components. Since NewPower was acquired by the Company in January of 2010, two of NewPower’s largest suppliers, Shenzhen Beiterui New Energy Material Co., Ltd. which supplies lithium cobalt oxide and lithium manganese oxide, and Shenzhen Xinchongkai Technology Co., Ltd. which supplies electrolyte, accounted for 10% and 6% of the Company’s total purchases in 2010, respectively.

Overall, due to the switch of business, our suppliers’ structure, including our internal supplier, has changed in 2011. Shenzhen E’Jenie Science and Technology Development Co., Ltd., Trony Solar Holdings Co., Ltd., BTR New Energy Materials Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Xinchongkai Technology Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen Deli Battery Co., Ltd. are the Company’s five largest suppliers during 2011 which accounted for 26%, 8%, 8%, 6% and 5%, respectively. Compared to 2010, Shenzhen Guanghaoyu Electronics Co., Ltd., Shenzhen BAK Battery Co., Ltd., Shenzhen Beiterui New Energy Material Co., Ltd., and Shenzhen NewPower Technology Co., Ltd. which in the aggregate amount accounted for approximately 47% of all components and raw materials purchased. Each of these suppliers accounted for more than 10% of our total purchases in 2010.

Percentages are based on total purchases of 2010, including intercompany purchases from Shenzhen NewPower Technology Co., Ltd., our subsidiary and one of our largest suppliers.
(2)
Percentages are based on total purchases of 2011, including intercompany purchases from Shenzhen E’Jenie Science and Technology Development Co., Ltd., our subsidiary and one of our largest suppliers.

Normally, the annual purchase plan for raw materials, such as battery components and silicon chips, is determined at the end of prior calendar year or beginning of the calendar year according to past customer's orders and our own sales forecast. Based on this plan, the Company places its purchase orders in the end of each month for the next month. Such purchase orders with key suppliers can be revised monthly in accordance with the purchase orders we received from our customers monthly. We believe that this arrangement protects us from inventory surplus when the orders from customers change.

For raw materials other than steel and aluminum, we normally maintain from one week up to one month of inventory at our warehouse. All components and raw materials are available from numerous sources. We have not experienced any significant shortages of manufactured components or raw materials and normally do not carry inventories of these items in excess of what is reasonably required to meet our production and shipping schedules.

Customers

During 2011, there were 2 customers who accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total sales. One was China Electronic Shenzhen Company who accounted for 14% of the Company’s total sales. This customer primarily purchased finished battery packs from NewPower and Mobile power devices from Anytone. Wittis International Communication Ltd. was the other one who accounted for 10% of the Company’s total sales. This customer primarily purchased finished battery packs from NewPower. Beside these two customers, NewPower was E’Jenie’s largest customer who accounted for 27% of the Company’s total sales. The sales from E’Jenie to NewPower and Anytone were eliminated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In 2010, through acquisitions, there is only one customer who accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s total sales. China Electronic Shenzhen Company was the only customer who accounted for 13% of the Company’s total sales. This customer primarily purchased finished battery packs from E’Jenie and Mobile power backup devices from Anytone. The second largest customer is Shenzhen Hua Yin Tong Battery Electronic Tech. Co., Ltd. which accounted for 6% of the Company’s total sales. The rest customers accounted less than 5% for each. Through acquisitions, the Company has diversified its customers.

During 2011, especially after the end of second quarter, due to the downturn of entire lithium ion battery industry, the Company faced a very stressful year. The lithium ion battery industry’s downturn situation caused many companies in this industry to look for higher profit products such as mobile power devices. Therefore, the result was that the Company’s major business, Anytone’s mobile power devices, was experienced a seriously counterfeit problem and also dramatic increasing competitions. In addition, the downturn of lithium ion battery industry caused the lower or even negative profit for E’Jenie and NewPower’s business. As the above situation, the Company strategically reduced E’Jenie and NewPower’s productions and even disposed two of these businesses in November 2011 to prevent future loses and focus on our major business. In order to fight with piracy products and other new competitors, Anytone strategically lowered its selling prices; increased its marketing investments and developed more new models. Through these effects, compared to 2010, although Anytone’s total sales decreased, the total sales in units increased in 2011.


Sales and Marketing

We focus our sales and marketing initiatives on becoming the leading manufacturer of lithium ion batteries application products. We promote our brand in order to build revenues, gain worldwide market share and promote consumer awareness and acceptance.

Doing Business in China

The Chinese Legal System

The practical effect of the People's Republic of China legal system on our business operations in China can be viewed from two separate but intertwined considerations. First, as a matter of substantive law, the Foreign Invested Enterprise laws provide significant protection from government interference. In addition, these laws guarantee the full enjoyment of the benefits of corporate Articles and contracts to Foreign Invested Enterprise participants. These laws, however, do impose standards concerning corporate formation and governance, which are not qualitatively different from the general corporation laws of the several states. Similarly, the PRC accounting laws mandate accounting practices, which are not consistent with US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“US GAAP”). China's accounting laws require that an annual "statutory audit" be performed in accordance with PRC accounting standards and that the books of account of Foreign Invested Enterprises are maintained in accordance with Chinese accounting laws. Article 14 of the People's Republic of China Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprise Law requires a Wholly Foreign-Owned Enterprise to submit certain periodic fiscal reports and statements to designate financial and tax authorities, at the risk of business license revocation.
 
Second, while the enforcement of substantive rights may appear less clear than US procedures, the Foreign Invested Enterprises and Wholly Foreign- Owned Enterprises are Chinese registered companies, which enjoy the same status as other Chinese registered companies in business-to-business dispute resolution. Generally, the Articles of Association provide that all business disputes pertaining to Foreign Invested Enterprises are to be resolved by the Arbitration Institute of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce in Stockholm, Sweden applying Chinese substantive law. Any award rendered by this arbitration tribunal is, by the express terms of the respective Articles of Association, enforceable in accordance with the "United Nations Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (1958)." Therefore, as a practical matter, although no assurances can be given, the Chinese legal infrastructure, while different in operation from its US counterpart, should not present any significant impediment to the operation of Foreign Invested Enterprises such as E'Jenie and Anytone.

Although the Chinese government owns the majority of productive assets in China, in the past several years the government has implemented economic reform measures that emphasize decentralization and encourage private economic activity. Because these economic reform measures may be inconsistent or ineffectual, there are no assurances that:

 
·
We will be able to capitalize on economic reforms.
 
 
·
The Chinese government will continue its pursuit of economic reform policies.

 
·
The economic policies, even if pursued, will be successful.

 
·
Economic policies will not be significantly altered from time to time.
  
 
·
Business operations in China will not become subject to the risk of nationalization.

Since 1979, the Chinese government has reformed its economic systems. Because many reforms are unprecedented or experimental, they are expected to be refined and improved. Other political, economic and social factors, such as political changes, changes in the rates of economic growth, unemployment or inflation, or in the disparities in per capita wealth between regions within China, could lead to further readjustment of the reform measures. This refining and readjustment process may negatively affect our operations.

Over the last few years, China's economy has registered a high growth rate. Recently, there have been indications that rates of inflation have increased. In response, the Chinese government recently has taken measures to curb this excessively expansive economy. These measures have included devaluations of the Chinese currency, the renminbi, restrictions on the availability of domestic credit, reducing the purchasing capability of certain of its customers, and limited re-centralization of the approval process for purchases of some foreign products. These austerity measures alone may not succeed in slowing down the economy's excessive expansion or control inflation, and may result in severe dislocations in the Chinese economy. The Chinese government may adopt additional measures to further combat inflation, including the establishment of freezes or restraints on certain projects or markets.
 
To date reforms to China's economic system have not adversely impacted our operations and are not expected to adversely impact operations in the foreseeable future; however, there can be no assurance that the reforms to China's economic system will continue or that we will not be adversely affected by changes in China's political, economic, and social conditions and by changes in policies of the Chinese government, such as changes in laws and regulations, measures which may be introduced to control inflation, changes in the rate or method of taxation, imposition of additional restrictions on currency conversion and remittance abroad, and reduction in tariff protection and other import restrictions.

Our manufacturing headquarters and office is located at A-3 Xinglian Industrial Zone, He Hua Ling Pingxin Road, Xin Nan, Ping Hua Town, Longgang, Shenzhen, China 518111. This facility is 6,708 square meters of which 15% or 1,000 square meters is used for offices, 4,500 square meters are used for the production lines and storages and the remaining 1,208 square meters are used for employee dormitories.

Anytone’s facility is leased and located at 5F, 51 Building, No.5, Qiongyu Rd., High-tech industrial park, Nanshan District, Shenzhen, China. The lease terms are five years which started from January 1, 2009 to December 30, 2013. The facility is 2,600 square meters, of which 1,300 square meters are used for R&D and producing samples and the rest are used for offices.
 
Kim Fai's facility is leased and located in 4-B, Building A2, Xinjianxing Technology Industrial Park, Fengxin Rd., Guangmingxin District, Shenzhen, China. This facility is 3,556 square meters of which 889 square meters is used for offices and the remaining 2,667 squares meters is used for production lines and storages.

Our U.S. office located at 116 West 23rd Street, 5th FL, New York, NY 10011. Currently, the Company’s US office only has one employee. Therefore, the Company rented a “virtual office” instead of a physical office, at the rate of $59 per month. This virtual office is primarily used for receiving regular mails.   The Company’s US employee typically works from home and goes to this virtual office to pick up mails one time per week. The major duties of this employee in the US office include coordinating SEC filing, maintaining investor relations and other daily email and paperwork processing.
 
We believe the facilities we occupy are adequate for the purposes for which they are currently used and are well maintained.
 
ITEM 3.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On November 9, 2011, NewPower, our subsidiary at the time, was served notice of a lawsuit filed in Longgang District People’s Court in Shenzhen, China on October 24, 2011. In the complaint filed in the lawsuit, Shenzhen Zhongte Industry and Trade Co., Ltd. (“SZIT”), alleges, among other things, that NewPower breached a Sales Agreement, dated May 9, 2011 between NewPower and SZIT (“Sales Agreement”), by not accepting returns of purported faulty products.  The complaint sought monetary damages, including SZIT’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with the action. On December 7, 2011, NewPower entered into a settlement agreement with SZIT resolving the action filed by SZIT. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, SZIT shall return certain products it purchased under the Sales Agreement. NewPower shall return RMB 9,720,000, the purchase price of the products, to SZIT. In addition, NewPower shall pay RMB 139,205 to SZIT by January 5, 2012. The Sales Agreement shall be terminated immediately and SZIT releases any and all of its claims arising out of the Sales Agreement.

In February 2012, two separate securities class action complaints were filed in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors.  The complaints allege that the Company issued materially false and misleading statements and omitted to state material facts that rendered its affirmative statements misleading as they related to the Company’s financial performance, business prospects, and financial condition, and that the defendants failed to prevent such statements from being issued or corrected, during a putative class period between April 15, 2010 and November 14, 2011. The complaints seek, among other relief, compensatory damages and attorneys’ fees.   The Company believes it is likely that a consolidated amended complaint will be filed after the Court determines the Lead Plaintiff and lead counsel for the litigation.  The Company has not yet responded to the complaint, but the Company believes that the complaints have no merit and intends to vigorously defend against them.  While certain legal defense costs may be later reimbursed by the Company’s insurance carrier, no reasonable estimate of any impact of the outcome of the litigation or related legal fees on the financial statements can be made as of the date of this statement.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

We operate our business through our wholly-owned subsidiaries, E'Jenie Technology Development Co., Ltd. ("E'Jenie"), Shenzhen Anytone Technology Co., Ltd. ("Shenzhen Anytone"), Shenzhen NewPower Technology Co., Ltd. ("NewPower"), and Shenzhen Kim Fai Solar Energy Technology Co., Ltd. ("Kim Fai"), companies incorporated under the laws of the Peoples’ Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”).

Through our subsidiaries, we manufacture and distribute lithium battery shells and related products primarily in China. Based on customer specifications, E'Jenie develops, customizes and produces steel and aluminum battery shells and caps. We manufacture and distribute battery shells and covers for cellular phones. We maintain long-term relationships with large lithium battery manufacturers. We believe we will continue to receive orders from our customers because of our reputation and the quality of our products. Our professional marketing team maintains relationships with our current customers and at the same time searches for potential new customers. We seek to maintain and strengthen our position as a provider of battery shells and caps while increasing the breadth of our product line and improving the quality of our products.

In August 2008, under the current depressed economic environment, management of the Company made some adjustments to keep the Company running and growing. To keep the existing battery pack accessories segment, the Company expanded into a related field – finished battery packs’ assembly and distribution, to diversify our line of products; consequently, the Company competes in the entire battery industry.
 
The lithium battery was created in the 1990s, with the first mass production in 1993 in Japan. Lithium batteries were first used in notebook computers and now are used in cellular phones, video machines, laptops, digital cameras, MP3 players, global positioning satellite systems, 3G communication devices, hybrid cars and other electronic products. Batteries are becoming smaller, lighter, more efficient, longer lasting and free of pollution. The lithium battery energy/weight ratio exceeds its counterparts and with an excellent safety standard we believe it is the future of the battery industry. According to Market Research, the market for lithium ion battery is expected to reach $43 billion by 2020. China has become one of the largest producers and consumers of lithium ion batteries. We anticipate there will be greater demand for lithium batteries in China and worldwide in the next few years. We believe the current trend towards smaller, lighter portable consumer products will continue and because of its size, the demand for lithium batteries will keep increasing.
 
Having engaged in the battery business for years, management of the Company has accumulated abundant knowledge about the battery industry, established a strong network among battery companies which are both upstream and downstream in the battery distribution flow, and gained a lot of experience in battery distribution; therefore, we believe the Company is in a more favorable position than other companies in distributing finished batteries. Assembling and distributing finished batteries has a higher profit margin than manufacturing battery accessories, so management of the Company is confident our battery distribution business will be profitable due to the outstanding battery quality and strong distribution network the Company has.
 
On December 7, 2009, we closed the transactions contemplated by the share exchange agreement dated November 19, 2009 with Anytone International (H.K.) Co., Ltd. (“Anytone International”) and Shenzhen Anytone. Pursuant to the share exchange agreement, we issued the shareholders of Anytone International 3,593,939 shares of the Company's restricted common stock and paid $10,000,000 in cash. Shenzhen Anytone is the Chinese operating subsidiary of Anytone International, collectively referred to a “Anytone.” Anytone is engaged in the production of mobile power and related power backup products.

Through Anytone, we development and market our branded mobile power and related power backup devices. Shenzhen Anytone was founded in 2005 and has very strong ability in R&D and marketing. In addition, Anytone has built its branded name in China and its products are sold to the end consumers directly. By focusing on R&D and marketing, Anytone only produces some sample products in-house for testing and majorly outsourcing its production to the third parties who are certified by Anytone.

Mobile power is lithium ion batteries’ application products. Currently, more and more advanced portable consumer electronic products are introduced to the market, such as laptop, smartphones, tablet PC and etc. All of these high technology products and the functions they have are power consuming monsters. The original single lithium ion battery is not enough to support these products. Mobile power is the solution to feed these power consuming monsters. Compare to the creation of lithium ion battery was in the 1990s, mobile power was started around 10 years ago and became popular and competitive in the recent few years. The increasing competition is due to 1) increasing demand – many consumers have more than one portable consumer electronic devices and they need power support; 2) higher profits – mobile powers are sold to end consumers directly; 3) low technology limit – a mobile power includes three major components which are battery cell, PCB and case. Therefore, most of lithium ion battery related manufacturers can enter easily; 4) no industry standards – mobile power is still a new business in the lithium ion battery industry without official standards. Therefore, this market is very disorder and the counterfeit or exaggerate products are sold all over the market. However, we believed that this market is still at the early stage. Once the official industry standards are created and the consumers’ feedbacks are accumulated, only those products with real quality will survive. 

On January 12, 2010, we closed the transactions contemplated by the share exchange agreement dated December 11, 2009 with NewPower.  Pursuant to the share exchange agreement, our Chinese subsidiary E’jenie acquired NewPower. We issued the shareholders of NewPower 1,823,346 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock and paid them $3,000,000 in cash. NewPower is engaged in manufacturing and distribution of lithium battery cells. 
  
On November 10, 2010, the Company’s subsidiary, Shenzhen Anytone executed a share exchange agreement to acquire all the equity interest of Kim Fai, a Chinese company engaged in the technology development and sale of solar application products and solar energy batteries, with all of the shareholders of Kim Fai. The price for the outstanding stock of Kim Fai was $13,303,236 to be paid in cash, and 1,913,265 shares of common stock valued at $14,999,998, which was determined by multiplying the 1,913,265 shares by the stock price of New Energy on November 10, 2010. As of September 30, 2011, $13,303,326 was paid and 1,913,265 shares were issued.
 
On November 24, 2011, the Company entered into an Equity Transfer Agreement with Xuemei Fang (“Fang”) and Weirong Xu (“Xu”, and together with Fang, the “Buyers”) to transfer 100% of the equity interest of Billion Electronics Limited (BVI) to the Buyers for RMB 85,553,892 ($13,578,043). The selling price equals the appraised value of Billion Electronics, including its wholly owned subsidiaries Shenzhen E’Jenie and Shenzhen NewPower less RMB 153,033,107 ($24,287,500) of debt that the Company owes E’Jenie, which shall be cancelled upon completion of the Equity Transfer. Xu is the Director of Marketing of NewPower and Fang is the Vice President of E’Jenie. As of February 28, 2012, the Company received RMB 22,906,779 ($3,635,477) and had an outstanding receivable of RMB 62,647,114 ($9,942,556).
 
During the third quarter of 2011, the Company performed annual goodwill impairment assessment for NewPower. During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company performed annual goodwill impairment assessment for Anytone and Kim Fai.  The goodwill balance prior to the impairment charge was $60,858,842 and was established primarily as a result of a series acquisition of NewPower, Anytone and Kim Fai in 2010 and 2011. The Company completed the step one analysis using a combination of market capitalization approach and discounted cash flow. The market capitalization approach uses the Company’s publicly traded stock price to determine fair value. The DCF method uses revenue and expense projections and risk-adjusted discount rates. The process of determining fair value is subjective and requires management to exercise a significant amount of judgment in determining future growth rates, discount and tax rates and other factors. The current economic environment has impacted the Company’s ability to forecast future demand and has in turn resulted in the use of higher discount rates, reflecting the risk and uncertainty in current markets. The results of the step one analysis indicated potential impairment in NewPower and Anytone reporting units, which were corroborated by a combination of factors including a significant and sustained decline in the market capitalization, which is significantly below the book value, and the deteriorating macro environment, which has resulted in a decline in expected future demand. The Company therefore performed the second step of the goodwill impairment assessment for NewPower and Anytone to quantify the amount of impairment. This involved calculating the implied fair value of goodwill, determined in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation, and comparing the residual amount to the carrying amount of goodwill. Based on the analysis incorporating the declining market capitalization in 2011, as well as the significant end market deterioration and economic uncertainties impacting expected future demand including continued slow-down of the battery industry in China, and increased competition resulting from counterfeit products and decreased selling pricefrom other manufacturers.  The Company concluded that the entire goodwill balance of NewPower of $14,306,538 and a portion of Anytone’s goodwill of $7,405,344 were impaired and recorded in operating expense. The goodwill impairment charge is non-cash. The goodwill impairment charge is not deductible for income tax purposes and, therefore, the Company has not recorded a corresponding tax benefit in 2011.  On December 9, 2011, the Company fully disposed its subsidiaries Billion, E’jenie and NewPower.
 
As of December 31, 2011, the Company concluded there was no impairment to the goodwill for Kim Fai reporting unit after performing the step one analysis by using the discounted cash flow method with each reporting unit’s fair value greater than the carrying value including the goodwill.

Net Sales

Net sales for 2011 was for $51.51 million, compared to $45.61 million for 2010, an increase of $5.90 million or 13%. The increase was primarily due to the acquisition of Kim Fai in November 2010, which brought us $20.23 million in solar panel sales during the year of 2011 compared to $3.09 million for 2010 after the acquisition. Battery production and sales, mainly from Anytone was $31.29 million in 2011 compared to $42.52 million in year 2010, a decrease of $11.23 million or 26%. The decrease was mainly due to (1) the entire battery industry being depressed in China, (2) we integrated the business section in each subsidiary, and as a result, reduced the production and sales of batteries and battery shells and covers; and (3) we decreased certain products’ selling prices to remain competitive and keep the market share.

On December 9, 2011, we completed the sale of E’Jenie and NewPower.  The sale of E’Jenie and NewPower was separately disclosed as discontinued operations, amounted to $14,383,844 and $9,116,659 for 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Cost of Sales

Cost of Sales ("COS") for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $39.78 million, or 77% of net sales, compared to $32.76 million, or 72% of net sales, for 2010, an increase of $7.02 million, or 21%.
 
COS for the battery segment was $23.19 million, or 74% of total battery revenue, for 2011, compared to $30.66 million, or 72%, for 2010, a decrease of $7.46 million, or 24%. The percentage increase in COS was mainly due to the decrease of production and sales volume, due to the depressed whole industry.

COS for our new production line of solar products for 2011 was $16.59 million, or 82% of sales, compared to $2.10 million for 2010, or 68% of sales. The increase in our percentage COS for solar products resulted from increased sales and production volume but with increasing cost as a result of increase material prices in China.
 
Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for 2011 were $14.24 million, or 28% of net revenue, compared to $5.46 million, or 12% of net revenue, for 2010, an increase of $8.78 million, or 161%. The increase in operating expenses was primarily due to the goodwill impairment which is $7.41 million and the operating expenses from our newly acquired subsidiary, which resulted in an increase of $0.95 million in operating expenses.

Selling expenses for 2011 were $1.28 million, or 3% of net revenue, compared to $0.22 million, or 0.48% of net revenue, for  2010, an increase of $1.07 million, or 490%, which was mainly due to the increased marketing expense including $0.44 million of advertisement, $0.14 million of exhibition fees and shipping cost, and $0.19 million of salary of sales personnel as a result of our efforts to expand the market for new customers and $0.28 million from Kim Fai which acquired in October 2010.

General and administrative expenses for 2011 were $5.55 million, or 11% of net revenue, compared to $5.24 million, or 11% of net revenue, for 2010.  The increase in general and administrative expenses of $0.30 million was mainly due to our newly acquired subsidiary Kim Fai, which increased general and administrative expenses by $0.67 million. In addition, the Company increased product development cost of $0.27 million and product design fee of $0.02 million, employees’ salary and welfare of $0.32 million, travel of $0.02 million, amortization expense of $0.09 million and other expenses of $0.02 million, partially offset by the decreased expenses of US Parent Company for 2011.

For 2011 and 2010, the US Parent Company recorded $0.11 million and $1.00 million as stock option and warrant compensation to the Company’s Investor Relationship (“IR”) and independent director. The stock-based compensation to the consultants of the Company was $0.68 million for both 2011 and 2010. Those consultants who were granted stock as compensation for work as branding strategy and financial consultants. The branding strategy consultants help the Company conduct stage analysis in the development of products and the industry; analyze customers’ motive of purchase; analyze market segmentation of similar brands; set strategic models and develop principles of the Company’s self-owned brands; assist the Company in identifying target consumers and designing brand development strategy; advise the Company on implementation of brand strategy including brand recognition, packaging, advertisement, etc. and draft brand strategy planning reports. The financial consultants provide the Company  advice on matters including: mergers and acquisitions (“M&A”), management buy-outs (“MBO”), restructuring, asset management, investment and financing.

During 2011, the Company performed goodwill impairment test and determined $7.41 million impairment to goodwill of Anytone.

Income (loss) From Discontinued Operations, net of tax

Net loss from discontinued operations, net of tax for 2011 was $14.38 million compared net income of $9.12 million for 2010, a decrease in net income of $23.50 million, which was mainly due to the goodwill impairment of $14.31 million of NewPower and operation loss of $0.07 million from disposed E’Jenie and NewPower.
 
Net Income (loss)

Net loss for 2011 was $17.86 million compared to net income of $14.32 million for 2010, a decrease in net income of $32.19 million, or 258%, due to the reasons listed above.

In 2011, the sale of Billion, E’Jenie and NewPower brought the Company a disposal gain of $0.29 million.

In addition, on November 9, 2011, NewPower was served notice of a lawsuit filed in Longgang District People’s Court in Shenzhen, China on October 24, 2011. In the complaint filed in the lawsuit, SZIT alleges NewPower breached a Sales Agreement, dated May 9, 2011 between NewPower and SZIT, by not accepting returns of purported faulty products.  The plaintiff has claimed a full credit for $1.66 million (RMB 10.56 million) of sales, of which, $1.15 million (RMB 7.34 million) was for products shipped prior to September 30, 2011 and $0.51 million (RMB 3.24 million) was shipped after September 30, 2011.  In addition, the plaintiff is seeking damages of $0.31 million (RMB 2.00 million) for the loss incurred from faulty products.
 
On December 7, NewPower entered into a settlement agreement with SZIT resolving the action. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, SZIT shall return certain products it purchased under a sales agreement, dated May 9, 2011 between NewPower and SZIT. NewPower shall return RMB 9,720,000 ($1,542,636), the purchase price of the products, and pay damage compensation of RMB 1,000,000 to SZIT. The Sales Agreement shall be terminated immediately and SZIT releases any and all of its claims arising out of the Sales Agreement.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
Our operations and liquidity needs are funded primarily through cash flows from operations and short-term borrowings. Cash and equivalents were $4,528,731 as of December 31, 2011. Working capital at December 31, 2011 was $24,420,622.

The following is a summary of cash provided by or used in each of the indicated types of activities during 2011 and 2010:

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.84 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $21.52 million for 2010. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities for 2011 was mainly due to the decrease in net income and the quick payment on accounts payable and tax payable, and relatively slow collection on accounts receivable, and increased payment for prepaid expense, deposits and other receivables, despite we lower our inventory level.  Anytone’s standard payment term is 60 days while our other subsidiaries’ payment terms to their customers are 30 days.  We have experienced timely payment from our customers.

Net cash used in investing activities was $4.13 million for 2011 and $5.98 million for 2010.  The cash used in 2011 was for the purchase of fixed assets and cash disposed along with disposed subsidiaries. While in 2010, the cash used was consisting of investment in subsidiaries of $6,529,286 and $154,936 for the purchase of fixed assets partially offset by $705,514 of cash received from NewPower and Kim Fai as a result of the acquisitions.

Net cash used in financing activities was $6.76 million for 2011, compared to $6.37 million for 2010. During 2011, the cash outflow was due to repayment of acquisition liability for Kim Fai of $6.80 million partially offset by cash inflow of $87,500 from warrants exercised. During 2010, we paid $5 million of the remaining balance of cash for the acquisition of Anytone and $1.37 million repayment to related parties.

Related Party Loans

As of December 31, 2011, the Company had a $571,347 unsecured, due on demand, and non-interest bearing loans payable to Dongrong Xu and Zaoxian Fang, the original owners of Shenzhen Anytone, of $485,645 and $85,702, respectively, in connection with the acquisition of Shenzhen Anytone by Anytone International.
 
Working Capital Requirements
 
Historically, cash from operations, short term financing and the sale of our Company stock have been sufficient to meet our cash needs. We believe we will be able to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our working capital needs. However, our actual working capital needs for the long and short term will depend upon numerous factors, including operating results, competition, and the availability of credit facilities, none of which can be predicted with certainty. Future expansion will be limited by economic environment for the industry and opportunities and availability of financing and raising capital by selling stock.  
 
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
 
We have never entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements and have never established any special purpose entities. We have not guaranteed any debt of other entities or entered into any options on non-financial assets.
 
Critical Accounting Policies

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, we believe the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis.

Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principle in the United States (“US GAAP”).  The Company’s functional currency is the Chinese Yuan Renminbi (“CNY” or “RMB”); however the accompanying consolidated financial statements were translated and presented in United States Dollars (“$” or “USD”).
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of New Energy Systems Group and its wholly owned subsidiaries Billion, E’Jenie, Anytone, Kim Fai and NewPower, are collectively referred to the Company.  Billion, E’Jenie and NewPower were disposed on December 9, 2011.  All material intercompany accounts, transactions and profits were eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include collectability of accounts receivable, accounts payable, sales returns and recoverability of long-term assets.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company manufactures and distributes batteries, battery shells and covers for portable consumer electronic devices in the PRC. The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104 (codified in FASB ASC Topic 605). Sales revenue is recognized when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, delivery is complete, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. No revenue is recognized if there are significant uncertainties regarding the recovery of the consideration due or the possible return of goods. Payments received before satisfaction of all relevant criteria for revenue recognition are recorded as unearned revenue.
  
 
 
25

 
 
Sales revenue is the invoiced value of goods, net of value-added tax (“VAT”). All of the Company’s products sold in the PRC are subject to Chinese value-added tax of 17% of the gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing the finished product. The Company records VAT payable and VAT receivable net of payments in the financial statements. The VAT tax return is filed offsetting the payables against the receivables. Sales and purchases are recorded net of VAT collected and paid as the Company acts as an agent for the government.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncement

In September 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (ASC Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, to simplify how entities test goodwill for impairment. ASU No. 2011-08 allows entities to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If greater than 50 percent likelihood exists that the fair value is less than the carrying amount then a two-step goodwill impairment test as described in Topic 350 must be performed. The guidance provided by this update becomes effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed as of a date before September 15, 2011. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
 
In June 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (ASC Topic 220):  Presentation of Comprehensive Income.  Under the amendments in this update, an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Under both options, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income and a total amount for comprehensive income. In a single continuous statement, the entity is required to present the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with the total of comprehensive income in that statement. In the two-statement approach, an entity is required to present components of net income and total net income in the statement of net income. The statement of other comprehensive income should immediately follow the statement of net income and include the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with a total for comprehensive income. In addition, the entity is required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented.  The amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company is currently assessing the effect that the adoption of this pronouncement will have on its financial statements.

Board of Directors and Stockholders of
New Energy Systems Group and Subsidiaries
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of New Energy Systems Group and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NEW ENERGY SYSTEMS GROUP AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2011 AND 2010

Note 1 – ORGANIZATION
 
New Energy Systems Group ("New Energy" or the "Company", FKA: China Digital Communication Group) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 27, 2001, operates its business through its wholly owned subsidiaries E'Jenie Technology Development Co., Ltd ("E'Jenie"), Shenzhen Anytone Technology Co., Ltd. ("Shenzhen Anytone"), Shenzhen NewPower Technology Development Co., Ltd. ("NewPower"), Shenzhen Kim Fai Solar Energy Technology Co., Ltd. ("Kim Fai"), companies incorporated under the laws of the People's Republic of China ("PRC" of “China”). Through our subsidiaries, the Company manufactures and distributes lithium battery, battery shells and related application products primarily in China. When used in these notes, the terms "Company," "we," "our," or "us" mean New Energy Systems Group and its Subsidiaries.
 
On September 30, 2004, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement with Billion Electronics Co., Ltd (“Billion”). Billion owned all of the issued and outstanding shares of E’Jenie. Billion was incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) on July 27, 2004. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding shares of Billion for $1,500,000 and 4,566,210 shares of the Company’s common stock, or approximately 8.7% of then issued and outstanding shares.
 
On June 28, 2006, the Company finalized an Exchange Agreement with Galaxy View International Ltd (“Galaxy View”), and its shareholders. Galaxy View owned all of the issued and outstanding shares of Sono Digital Electronics Technologies Co., Ltd (“Sono”). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired 100% of Galaxy View in a cash and stock transaction valued at $6,787,879. Under the Agreement, the Company paid the Galaxy View shareholders $3,000,000 and delivered 7,575,757 unregistered shares of the Company’s preferred stock valued at $3,787,879.
 
On April 24, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement to transfer shares of Sono to Liu Changqing and Wang Feng (collectively, the “Purchasers”). Changqing purchased 60% and Feng purchased 40% of Sono. For all outstanding shares of Sono, the Purchasers paid $3,000,000. The Company disposed of Galaxy View and its wholly-owned subsidiary Sono, on April 24, 2007.
 
In connection with the acquisition of Galaxy View, the Company issued Series A Preferred Stock to the selling shareholders. On June 29, 2006, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada a Certificate of Designation of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock designating 7,575,757 of the Company’s previously authorized preferred stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock entitled the holder to seven votes per share on all matters to be voted on by the shareholders of the Company and is mandatorily convertible into one tenth of one share of the Company’s common stock on June 29, 2011 (after providing for the July 13, 2009, 10-to-1 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock). Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall, with respect to rights on liquidation, dissolution or winding up, ranks (i) on a parity with the Company’s common stock, and (ii) junior to any other class of the Company’s preferred stock. Series A Preferred Stock is not entitled to any preferred dividend. However, the preferred shareholders will share the dividend on common stock proportionately if and when the dividend on Common Stock is declared. On October 20, 2010, the Company filed an Amendment to its Certification of Designations, Preferences and Rights for its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. As a result of the Amendment, the Series A is convertible at the option of the holder until June 29, 2011, when every ten (10) issued and outstanding shares of Series A shall be automatically convertible into one (1) share of common stock (on a post-split basis). Additionally, the Series A shall continue to be subject to a lock-up provision through June 29, 2011, provided, however, that the common stock issuable upon the optional conversion of the Series A shall not be subject to such lock-up limitations. In 2011, 5,022,727 shares Series A preferred stock were converted to 502,273 shares of common stock, and there were 2,553,030 shares of Series A preferred stock outstanding, however, all the outstanding Series A preferred stock was automatically converted.
 
On July 13, 2009, the Company effected a 10-to-1 reverse stock split. The principal effect of the Reverse Split was (i) that the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding was reduced from 54,460,626 to approximately 5,446,062 (depending on the number of fractional shares that are issued or cancelled), and (ii) that each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into one tenth of one share of the Company’s common stock. The number of authorized shares of common stock was not affected. All per share data was retroactively restated.

On September 8, 2009, the Company amended the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to change the Company’s name to “New Energy Systems Group.”

On December 7, 2009, the Company closed the transactions contemplated by the share exchange agreement dated November 19, 2009 with Anytone International (H.K.) Co., Ltd. (“Anytone International”) and Shenzhen Anytone.  Shenzhen Anytone is a subsidiary of Anytone International, collectively referred to as “Anytone”.  Pursuant to the share exchange agreement, the Company issued the shareholders of Anytone International 3,593,939 shares of the Company's common stock with a restrictive legend, and agreed to pay $10,000,000. The acquisition was completed on December 7, 2009.  Anytone is engaged in manufacturing and distribution of lithium batteries.
 
On January 12, 2010, the Company closed the transactions contemplated by the share exchange agreement dated December 11, 2009 with NewPower. Pursuant to the share exchange agreement, the Company’s subsidiary E’jenie acquired NewPower. The Company issued the shareholders of NewPower, 1,823,346 shares of the Company’s common stock with a restrictive legend, and $3,000,000. NewPower is engaged in manufacturing and distribution of lithium batteries.

On November 10, 2010, the Company’s subsidiary, Shenzhen Anytone executed a share exchange agreement to acquire all the equity interest of Kim Fai, a Chinese company engaged in the development and sale of solar application products, with the shareholders of Kim Fai. The price for 100% of the outstanding stock of Kim Fai was $13,000,000 in cash and 1,913,265 shares of common stock valued at $14,999,998, which was determined by multiplying the 1,913,265 shares by the stock price of New Energy at the acquisition date. The $13,000,000 was paid in RMB 88,400,000 at an exchange rate of 6.8:1 as stated in the agreement; however, based on the exchange rate of 6.645:1 at the acquisition date, RMB 88,400,000 was equivalent to $13,303,236 which was the actual cash portion of the purchase consideration that was recorded.

On November 24, 2011, the Company entered into an Equity Transfer Agreement (the “Equity Transfer Agreement”) with Xuemei Fang (“Fang”) and Weirong Xu (“Xu”, and together with Fang, the “Buyers”) to transfer 100% of the equity interest of Billion to the Buyers for RMB 85,553,892 ($13,578,043). The selling price equals the appraisal value of Billion, including its wholly owned subsidiaries E’Jenie and NewPower less RMB 153,033,107 ($24,287,500) of debt that the Company owes E’Jenie, which shall be cancelled upon completion of the Equity Transfer. Xu is the Director of Marketing of NewPower and Fang is the Vice President of E’Jenie. As of February 28, 2012, the Company received RMB 22,906,779 ($3,635,477) and had outstanding receivable  of  RMB 62,647,114 ($9,942,556).
 
Note 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).  The Company’s functional currency is the Chinese Yuan Renminbi (“CNY” or “RMB“); however, the accompanying consolidated financial statements were translated and presented in United States Dollars (“$”, or “USD”).
 
Exchange Gain
 
During 2011 and 2010, the transactions of E’Jenie, Anytone, Kim Fai and NewPower were denominated in foreign currency and were recorded in CNY at the rates of exchange in effect when the transactions occurred. Exchange gains and losses are recognized for the different foreign exchange rates applied when the foreign currency assets and liabilities are settled.
 
 
F-8

 
 
Foreign Currency Translation and Comprehensive Income (Loss)
 
During 2011 and 2010, the accounts of E’Jenie, Anytone, Kim Fai and NewPower were maintained, and its financial statements were expressed, in CNY. Such financial statements were translated into USD in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation,” (codified in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 830) with the CNY as the functional currency. According to Topic 830, all assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rate at the balance sheet date, stockholder’s equity is translated at the historical rates and income statement items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. Transactions in foreign currencies are initially recorded at the functional currency rate ruling at the date of transaction. Any differences between the initially recorded amount and the settlement amount are recorded as a gain or loss on foreign currency transaction in the consolidated statements of operations. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income” as a component of shareholders’ equity (codified in FASB ASC Topic 220). There were no significant fluctuations in the exchange rate for the conversion of CNY to USD after the balance sheet date.

Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include collectability of accounts receivable, accounts payable, sales returns and recoverability of long-term assets.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of New Energy Systems Group and its wholly owned subsidiaries Billion, E’Jenie, Anytone, Kim Fai and NewPower, and are collectively referred to as the Company.  Billion, E’Jenie and NewPower were disposed on December 9, 2011.  All material intercompany accounts, transactions and profits were eliminated in consolidation.
 
Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts were reclassified to conform to the presentation in the current year. The reclassifications did not have an effect on the results of operations on the cash flow.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company manufactures and distributes batteries, battery shells and covers for cellular phones in PRC. The Company’s revenue recognition policies are in compliance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104 (codified in FASB ASC Topic 605). Sales revenue is recognized when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. No revenue is recognized if there are significant uncertainties regarding the recovery of the consideration due or the possible return of goods. Payments received before satisfaction of all relevant criteria for revenue recognition are recorded as unearned revenue.
 
Sales revenue is the invoiced value of goods, net of value-added tax (“VAT”). All of the Company’s products sold in the PRC are subject to Chinese value-added tax of 17% of the gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing the finished product. The Company records VAT payable and VAT receivable net of payments in the financial statements. The VAT tax return is filed offsetting the payables against the receivables. Sales and purchases are recorded net of VAT collected and paid as the Company acts as an agent for the government.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123” (codified in FASB ASC Topic 718 and 505). The Company recognizes in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees. Non-employees stock based compensation is accounted for according to ASC 718.
 
 
 
F-9

 
 
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company utilizes SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” (codified in FASB ASC Topic 740), which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that were included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
 
The Company follows FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, (codified in FASB ASC Topic 740). When tax returns are filed, it is likely that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits is classified as interest expense and penalties are classified in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of income.

At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had not taken any significant uncertain tax positions on its tax returns for 2010 and prior years or in computing its tax provision for 2011.

Statement of Cash Flows
 
In accordance with SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows” (codified in FASB ASC Topic 230), cash flows from the Company’s operations are based upon local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.
 
Supplemental Cash Flow Disclosures
 
Cash from operating, investing and financing activities from changes in assets and liabilities, was net of effects from the acquisitions of NewPower and Kim Fai on January 12, 2010 and November 10, 2010, respectively; and the disposal of Billion, E’Jenie and NewPower on December 9, 2011.
 
Concentration of Credit Risk
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash, accounts receivable and other receivables arising from its normal business activities. The Company places its cash in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions. The Company has a diversified customer base, most of which are in China. The Company controls credit risk related to accounts receivable through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, based upon factors surrounding the credit risk, establishes an allowance, if required, for uncollectible accounts and, as a consequence, believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure beyond such allowance is limited.
 
F-10

 
Risks and Uncertainties
 
The Company is subject to risks from, among other things, competition associated with the industry in general, other risks associated with financing, liquidity requirements, rapidly changing customer requirements, limited operating history, foreign currency exchange rates and the volatility of public markets.
 
Contingencies
 
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management and legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought.
 
If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material would be disclosed.
 
Loss contingencies considered to be remote by management are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantee would be disclosed.

Cash and Equivalents
 
Cash and equivalents include cash in hand and cash in demand deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had $4,307,000 and $13,056,000 cash in state-owned banks, respectively, of which no deposits were covered by insurance. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in bank accounts.
 
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
 
The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $0 at December 31, 2011 and 2010.
 
Inventory
 
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (determined on a weighted average basis) or market. Management compares the cost of inventories with the market value and allowance is made to write down inventories to market value, if lower.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term debt, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:
 
Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

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

Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
 
The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” and ASC 815.
 
As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company did not identify any assets and liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheet at fair value.

Basic and Diluted Earnings (loss) per Share (EPS)
 
Basic EPS is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed similar to basic net income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all the potential common shares, warrants and stock options had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Diluted EPS is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method for the outstanding options and the if-converted method for the outstanding convertible preferred shares. Under the treasury stock method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Under the if-converted method, convertible outstanding instruments are assumed to be converted into common stock at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later). The following tables present a reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

Goodwill
 
Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired as a result of the Company’s acquisitions of in its subsidiaries. Under SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS 142”) (codified in FASB ASC Topic 350), goodwill is no longer amortized, but tested for impairment upon first adoption and annually, thereafter, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. Impairment testing is performed at a reporting unit level. An impairment loss generally would be recognized when the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, with the fair value of the reporting unit determined using discounted cash flow (DCF) analysis. A number of significant assumptions and estimates are involved in the application of the DCF analysis to forecast operating cash flows, including the discount rate, the internal rate of return, and projections of realizations and costs to produce. Management considers historical experience and all available information at the time the fair values of its reporting units are estimated.

During the third quarter of 2011, the Company performed annual goodwill impairment assessment for NewPower. During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company performed annual goodwill impairment assessment for Anytone and Kim Fai.  The goodwill balance prior to the impairment charge was $60,858,842 and was established primarily as a result of a series acquisition of NewPower, Anytone and Kim Fai in 2010 and 2011. The Company completed the step one analysis using a combination of market capitalization approach and discounted cash flow. The market capitalization approach uses the Company’s publicly traded stock price to determine fair value. The DCF method uses revenue and expense projections and risk-adjusted discount rates. The process of determining fair value is subjective and requires management to exercise a significant amount of judgment in determining future growth rates, discount and tax rates and other factors. The current economic environment has impacted the Company’s ability to forecast future demand and has in turn resulted in the use of higher discount rates, reflecting the risk and uncertainty in current markets. The results of the step one analysis indicated potential impairment in NewPower and Anytone reporting units, which were corroborated by a combination of factors including a significant and sustained decline in the market capitalization, which is significantly below the book value, and the deteriorating macro environment, which has resulted in a decline in expected future demand. The Company therefore performed the second step of the goodwill impairment assessment for NewPower and Anytone to quantify the amount of impairment. This involved calculating the implied fair value of goodwill, determined in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation, and comparing the residual amount to the carrying amount of goodwill. Based on the analysis incorporating the declining market capitalization in 2011, as well as the significant end market deterioration and economic uncertainties impacting expected future demand including continued slow-down of the battery industry in China, and increased competition resulting from counterfeit products and decreased selling price from other manufacturers.  The Company concluded that the entire goodwill balance of NewPower of $14,306,538 and a portion of Anytone’s goodwill of $7,405,344 were impaired and recorded in operating expense. The goodwill impairment charge is non-cash. The goodwill impairment charge is not deductible for income tax purposes and, therefore, the Company has not recorded a corresponding tax benefit in 2011.  On December 9, 2011, the Company fully disposed its subsidiaries Billion, E’jenie and NewPower.

 
F-13

 
 
As of December 31, 2011, the Company concluded there was no impairment to the goodwill for Kim Fai reporting unit after performing the step one analysis by using the discounted cash flow method with each reporting unit’s fair value greater than the carrying value including the goodwill.
 
Intangible Assets
 
The Company applies in SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (codified in FASB ASC Topic 805) to determine if an intangible asset should be recognized separately from goodwill. Intangible assets acquired through business acquisitions are recognized as assets separate from goodwill if they satisfy either the “contractual-legal” or “separability” criterion. Per SFAS 142, (codified in FASB ASC Topic 350), intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their estimated useful life and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets” (codified in FASB ASC Topic 360). Intangible assets, such as purchased technology, trademark, customer list, user base and non-compete agreements, arising from the acquisitions of subsidiaries and variable interest entities are recognized and measured at fair value upon acquisition. Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives from one to ten years. The Company reviews the amortization methods and estimated useful lives of intangible assets at least annually or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that assets may be impaired. The recoverability of an intangible asset to be held and used is evaluated by comparing the carrying amount of the intangible to its future net undiscounted cash flows. If the intangible is considered impaired, the impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the intangible exceeds the fair value of the intangible, calculated using a discounted future cash flow analysis. The Company uses estimates and judgments in its impairment tests, and if different estimates or judgments had been utilized, the timing or the amount of the impairment charges could be different.
 
The Company follows SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, (codified in FASB ASC Topic 360) which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets and supersedes SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of,” and the accounting and reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations for a Disposal of a Segment of a Business (codified in FASB ASC Topic 225).” The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used in accordance with SFAS 144 (codified in FASB ASC Topic 360). SFAS 144 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal.
 
Segment reporting

SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” (codified in FASB ASC Topic 280), requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company.
 
The Company had three operating segments: battery components manufacture, battery assembly and distribution, and solar panel manufacture.  The Company disposed of battery components manufacture segment through the disposition of Billion and its subsidiaries. These remaining operating segments were determined based on the nature of the products offered.  Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.  The Company's chief executive and chief financial officers were identified as the chief operating decision makers.  The Company’s chief operating decision makers direct the allocation of resources to operating segments based on the profitability, cash flows, and other measurement factors of each respective segment.
 
Recent accounting pronouncements
 
In September 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (ASC Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, to simplify how entities test goodwill for impairment. ASU No. 2011-08 allows entities to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If greater than 50 percent likelihood exists that the fair value is less than the carrying amount then a two-step goodwill impairment test as described in Topic 350 must be performed. The guidance provided by this update becomes effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed as of a date before September 15, 2011. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In June 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (ASC Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. Under the amendments in this update, an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Under both options, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income and a total amount for comprehensive income. In a single continuous statement, the entity is required to present the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with the total of comprehensive income in that statement. In the two-statement approach, an entity is required to present components of net income and total net income in the statement of net income. The statement of other comprehensive income should immediately follow the statement of net income and include the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with a total for comprehensive income. In addition, the entity is required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company is currently assessing the effect that the adoption of this pronouncement will have on its financial statements.

During 2006, E’Jenie purchased the two facilities it previously leased for $1,103,596. Of that amount $551,798 was recorded as an intangible asset as land use rights. Because the laws of the PRC do not allow ownership of land, the Company received a Certificate of Real Estate from the Ministry of Land and Resources to use the land. E’Jenie incurred losses and also its revenue reduced significantly during 2007. The Company performed an intangible assets impairment test and concluded there was impairment as to the carrying value of intangible assets of E’Jenie of $1,972,598 as of December 31, 2007. In December 2011, the Company disposed its subsidiaries Billion, E’jenie and NewPower, the net intangible assets of disposed entities was $5,502,741 at disposal date.

Warrants

On November 11, 2009, The Company entered into a one-year consulting agreement with an investment relations firm. The Company granted the IR firm’s warrants to purchase 200,000 shares common stock of the Company as compensation for its service. The warrants included Series A warrant and Series B warrant with a term of two years (the “Series A Warrant”, the “Series B Warrant”), to purchase 50,000 shares at $5.00 and $5.50, respectively. The warrants included Series C warrant and Series D warrant with a term of three years (the “Series C Warrant”, the “Series D Warrant”), to purchase 50,000 shares at $6.00 and $6.50, respectively. 35% of all series warrants were vested at the grant date and 65% of all series of the warrants were vested upon the duty of service the IR completed, which was January 5, 2010.
 
The fair value of the warrants was calculated using the following assumptions: for the warrants with estimated life of two years, volatility of 100%, risk free interest rate of 0.85%, and dividend yield of 0%; for the warrants with estimated life of three years, volatility of 100%, risk free interest rate of 1.39%, and dividend yield of 0%. The total fair value of warrants was $868,872.

The Company entered into a one-year consulting agreement with an IR firm on November 1, 2010. The monthly payment at $8,550 will be made at the beginning of each month; on December 4, 2010, the Company also granted the IR firm a warrant to purchase 36,000 shares for each 6 months contract period at $5.90, a term of three years which vested on November 1, 2011. The fair value of the warrants was calculated using the following assumptions: estimated life of three years, volatility of 100%, risk free interest rate of 2.76%, and dividend yield of 0%. The grant date fair value of warrants was $188,993.
 
F-18

 

On May 30, 2011, the Company granted the IR firm a warrant to purchase the second 36,000 shares at excise price of $5.90, a term of three years which vested on November 1, 2011. If the agreement is cancelled after six months by either party, the IR firm will be entitled to a pro-rata of the warrants for the period services were provided. The fair value of the warrants was calculated using the following assumptions: estimated life of three years, volatility of 100%, risk free interest rate of 0.81%, and dividend yield of 0%. The grant date fair value of warrants was $33,055.

The Company accounted for warrants issued to investor relations firms based on ASC 505-50 at each balance sheet date and expense recorded based on the period elapsed at each balance sheet date, which is the date at which the counterparty’s performance is deemed to be completed for the period. The fair value of each warrant granted is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model under ASC 505-30-11 and is recognized as compensation expense over the service term of the investor relations agreement as it is a better matching of cost with services received.

In connection with the agreements, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock valued at $2.70 (stock price at grant date) to eight consultants, and recorded $2,700,000 as deferred compensation.

Note 12 – INCOME TAXES
 
As of December 31, 2011, the Company in the US had approximately $3,956,000 in net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards available to offset future taxable income. Federal NOLS can generally be carried forward 20 years. The deferred tax assets for the US entities at December 31, 2011 consisted mainly of NOL carry forwards and were fully reserved as the management believes it is more likely than not that these assets will not be realized in the future. Therefore, the Company has provided full valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets arising from the losses at the location as of December 31, 2011. Accordingly, the Company has no net deferred tax assets.

There is no income tax for companies domiciled in the BVI. Accordingly, the Company's consolidated financial statements do not present any income tax provisions related to BVI tax jurisdiction where Billion is domiciled.
 
Beginning January 1, 2008, the new PRC Enterprise Income Tax ("EIT") law replaced the existing laws for Domestic Enterprises ("DES") and Foreign Invested Enterprises ("FIEs"). The new standard EIT rate is 25%.

Subsidiary E’Jenie was qualified as new technology enterprise under PRC Income Tax Law and still subject to the tax holiday with applicable EIT of 24% for 2011 and 22% for 2010, respectively. The newly acquired subsidiaries Anytone, NewPower and Kim Fai’s effective EIT for 2011 is 24% and 2010 is 22%.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) (the Company's principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) (the Company’s principal financial and accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2011. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO noted a material weakness (see Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting below) and concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.  The management has since implemented corrective actions designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations and accumulated and communicated to them as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act and for assessing the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. As defined by the SEC (Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by its Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles.

Our internal control system was designed to, in general, provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements, but because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011.  The framework used by management in making that assessment was the criteria set forth in the document entitled “Internal Control – Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO Report”). Based on that evaluation and the criteria set forth in the COSO Report, management concluded that at December 31, 2010 there was a material weakness and therefore, the internal control over financial reporting was not effective.  A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The Company’s material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting is related to a limited US GAAP technical accounting expertise.  The Company’s internal accounting department has primarily engaged in ensuring compliance with PRC accounting and reporting requirements for our operating affiliates. As a result, our current internal accounting department responsible for financial reporting of the Company, on a consolidated basis, is relatively new to US GAAP and the related internal control procedures required of US public companies.  Although the Company’s accounting staff is professional and experienced in accounting requirements and procedures generally accepted in the PRC, management has determined that they require additional training and assistance in US GAAP matters. In order to mitigate this material weakness to the fullest extent possible, external consultants were used and the Company’s review process was strengthened.  Therefore, management believes that the consolidated financial statements and other information presented herewith are materially correct.  Management believes that the weakness did not have any effect on the accuracy of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the current reporting period.

 
 
27

 
 
The Company has identified the following other weaknesses in our internal controls unrelated to our limited US GAAP technical accounting expertise (collectively, the “Weaknesses”):

·  
Lack of periodic review of our accounting manual, policy, and procedures; and
·  
Lack of periodic review of the accounting books.
 
 
Although the management of our Company, including the CEO and the CFO, believes that our disclosure controls and internal controls currently provide reasonable assurance that our desired control objectives have been met, management does not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud.  A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our Company have been detected.  These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.  Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls.  The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permanently exempt smaller reporting companies. 
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Company hired a SOX consulting firm in 2009 to evaluate our SOX 404 internal control and procedures. Their primary objective was to streamline our internal control structure. The consulting firm had studied and examined our lines of responsibility and delegation of authority for our functional financial reporting areas so that they can evaluate whether responsibility lines are clearly drawn. They documented and tested our key controls over financial reporting in 2009 and introduced key auditable internal controls and procedures integrated with our financial reporting processes. Through their studies and examinations, management realized that our internal control over financial reporting was subject to weakness due to limited US GAAP technical accounting expertise. In response, management has taken the following actions in 2011 and will continue to take further actions in 2012 to remediate the Weaknesses.

During 2011, the Company has taken the following actions with respect to our internal control over financial reporting to remediate the Weaknesses:

·  
The Company has held four audit committee meetings to review our quarterly and annually financial reports; and
·  
The Company has held two Board of Director meetings to discuss and decide the Company’s major issue such as the disposal of two subsidiaries, the restructure of the Company’s remained subsidiaries.
 
 
 
 
28

 

 
            In 2012, the Company will undertake the following actions to remediate the Weaknesses:

·  
The Company intends to hire a new CFO who is familiar with Chinese accounting regulation, US GAAP, and SEC regulations;
·  
The Company intends to hire more employees for its financial department who are familiar with US GAAP;

·  
The Company intends to educate and further train their current employees to enhance their knowledge about US GAAP;
·  
The Company will conduct periodic reviews of the Company’s accounting manual, policy and procedures, and accounting books; and

·  
The Company will use the financial statement disclosure lists in accordance with the US GAAP to review all the future financial data.

In 2012, the Company will, with our internal staff, continue to conduct periodic internal control risk assessments and control testing so that we will be improving our internal control system’s integrity and to assess areas of material risk. Our internal audit staff, in 2012, will develop additional control activities to ensure the effective function of our controls. The anticipated changes in internal control over financial reporting will enhance our control environment while also improving internal information flow and communication network. We will identify new risks through a constant risk assessment process and make our control activities an effective tool of monitoring our internal controls. The sole responsibility for establishing and maintaining our internal controls over financial reporting and all internal control systems improvement is that our management and company personnel including our internal audit department, which will all ensure proper and reliable financial reporting. Other than as described above, there have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

The audit committee is comprised of Elan Yaish, Shuxian Cui, and Li Liu with Elan Yaish serving as Chairman. The compensation committee is comprised of Elan Yaish, Shuxian Cui, and Li Liu, with Li Liu serving as chairman.

A copy of the compensation committee’s current charter is available on our website at http://www.newenergysystemsgroup.com/pdf/Compensation%20Committee%20Charter.pdf.

Nominating Committee
 
The nominating committee is involved in evaluating the desirability of and recommending to the Board any changes in the size and composition of the board, evaluation of and successor planning for the chief executive officer and other executive officers.  The qualifications of any candidate for director will be subject to the same extensive general and specific criteria applicable to director candidates generally.  A copy of the nominating committee’s current charter is available on our website at http://www.newenergysystemsgroup.com/pdf/Nominating%20Committee%20Charter.pdf.

The nominating committee will consider qualified director candidates recommended by stockholders if such recommendations for director are submitted in writing to our Secretary at 116 West 23rd St., 5th Fl, New York, NY 10011, provided such recommendation has been made in accordance with the relevant by-laws.

Changes in Nominating Process
 
There are no material changes to the procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to our Board of Directors.
 
Code of Ethics
 
We have adopted a code of ethics to apply to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and controller, or persons performing similar functions.

Compliance with Section 16(A) of the Exchange Act

Based solely on our review of the copies of such reports received by us, and on written representations by our officers and directors regarding their compliance with the applicable reporting requirements under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, we believe that, with respect to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011, our officers and directors, and all of the persons known to us to own more than 10% of our common stock, filed all required reports on a timely basis except that Elan Yaish was late in filing a Form 4.
