Except as otherwise indicated by the context, references in this Annual Report to "we," "us," "our," or the "Company" are to the combined business of Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc. and its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, Beijing Orsus Xelent Technology & Trading Company Limited ("Xelent"). Introduction On March 31, 2005, we completed a stock exchange transaction (the "Exchange Transaction") with the stockholders of United First International Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong ("UFIL"). The Exchange Transaction was consummated under Delaware law and pursuant to the terms of that certain Securities Exchange Agreement dated effective as of March 31, 2005 (the "Exchange Agreement"). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, we issued shares of our common stock to the stockholders of UFIL, in exchange for 100% of the outstanding capital stock of UFIL. Pursuant to the Exchange Transaction, UFIL became our wholly owned subsidiary. We carry on our business through UFIL's wholly owned subsidiary, Xelent. Description of Business We, through the operations of Xelent, have been engaged since May 2003 in the business of designing for retail and wholesale distribution economically priced cellular phones. In February of 2004, Xelent registered "ORSUS" with the State Administration for Industry and Commerce in the People's Republic of China (the "PRC") as its product trademark, also known as "Orsus Cellular" within the industry. Xelent has sold approximately 240,000 cellular phones in the PRC in 2005 The market in the PRC for cellular phones has continued to expand and we have taken advantage of that expansion by gradually introducing more mature 2.5G wireless products to the public in the PRC. As the 3G standards become more accepted and widely utilized, we anticipate that we will seek to produce our own 3G products based on both our own research and development efforts and cooperation with our strategic partners in the industry. Organizational Structure The organizational structure of the company is linear in nature and is comprised of ten separate departments developed to ensure proper project management and control. These departments are as follows: o Product Planning Department, which is responsible for formulating the medium and long-range strategic plans for us and our products, proposing and adjusting product planning and research and development scheduling as a part of overall strategic planning; 1 o Project Management Department, which is responsible for coordinating the management of cellular phone projects, exchanging concepts and ideas with our research and development team, providing weekly project reports and supervising the project schedules. o Production Management Department, which is responsible for production planning, management of production materials and techniques, and control and tracking of production routes; o Technology Support and Quality Control Department, which is responsible for technical support for software and hardware design and testing and industrial design and mechanical design ("ID/IM") checking and auditing, as well as tooling engineering and quality control during mass production; o Business Management Department, which is responsible for materials purchase, supply chain management, business coordination and to sign the business agreements, contracts and other kinds of documents for the business partners; o Planning and Finance Department, which is responsible for overall accounting matters, including accounting methods and processes, auditing, compiling financial plans and monthly/quarterly/yearly financial statements and financial budgets, and control of expenses; o Human Resources Department, which is responsible for our employment issues, including hiring and termination of staff; o Administration and Strategy Planning Department, which is responsible for administration, investment and financing analysis, legal affairs, intellectual property support and IT support; o Customer Service Department, which is responsible for maintenance, spare parts ordering, authorized network management, refurbishing, after-sale data analysis and service charge fees return, as well as a hotline service center and customer service training center, technical support and after-sale service quality assurance systems of the Company; and o Value-added Service Department that is responsible for new business development related to or derived from our cellular phone products. The Value-added Service Department actively seeks strategic business partners in SMS messaging, internet content providers and any other value-added suppliers to the cellular phone market. The goal of the department is to establish profit-yielding business models with solid development and implementation plan. o Marketing Development Department, which is responsible for help the Company to find new business partners, which will act as the countryside distributors, provincial dealers and some overseas wholesalers. The department also helps the long-term partners and new incomers to set up the marketing concepts and business models of Orsus Cellular. Our headquarters in Beijing have seven regional management centers and a technical support center. We also have an unaffiliated network of service providers, including 179 cellular phone service centers located throughout the PRC. Of these providers, 42 are provincial replacement and refurbishment centers and 137 are maintenance and repair centers. 2 Market Overview and Strategic Partners According to research conducted by China Ministry of Information Industry, in 2005, new cellular phone users in the PRC, the largest nation in the world, increased by 58 million, with total consumers reaching 393 million out of a population of approximately 1.3 billion. The number of users is expected to reach over 500 million by 2007. According to industry research publications, global sales for cellular phones worldwide in 2005 were over 800 million units, which represented a 21% growth rate from 2004. During that same time period, sales for cellular phones in the Asia-Pacific Region were over 200 million units, making this region the largest market in the world. Our cellular products combine many of the currently popular1.8-inch to 2.2-inch TFT color displays, one to 120 minutes video recording, 300K to 200 mega pixels photography, MP3, MPEG4 and U disk support, 40 to 64 polyphonic ring tones, handwriting and PDA functions, all at low to moderate price points. Our relationships with our strategic partners, CEC Cellular Limited ("CECM"), Beijing Xingwang Shidai Tech & Trading Co., Ltd. ("XWSD") and Hebei Mascot Communication Equipment Co., Ltd ("MASCOT") have help us to increase our market penetration. CECM, which is controlled by China Electronics Corporation Group, is a manufacturer of cellular phones with annual production of approximately one million units. CECM serves as a manufacturer for our cellular phone products. In addition, CECM has its own sales network, and we sell some of our products to CECM, who in turn sells those products to its own provincial and national sales distributors and dealers, thus increasing the distribution capabilities for our products. XWSD is also one of our major agents, selling our cellular phones to provincial distributors, city distributors and dealers. XWSD employ several market promotion services companies to enhance the sales networks of our products throughout the PRC. MASCOT whose sales networks covers most of the main cities all the PRC, particularly in the northern region, is a newly developed provincial distributor since the 3rd quarter of 2005 and mainly responsible to distribute our old products. 3

We outsource the manufacturer of our products to unaffiliated third parties. Once our products have been manufactured, they are delivered to a network of unaffiliated national sales distributors (see "Description of Current Business - Market Overview and Strategic Partners") and dealers that, in turn, distribute the products to provincial sales distributors and dealers and these provincial sales distributors and dealers distribute our products to retailers throughout the PRC. 4 Research & Development We do business with two kinds of research and development enterprises. We cooperate with professional design houses such as Shanghai Simcom Technology Limited ("Simcom") and Shanghai Huntel Technologies Co., Ltd.("Huntel"), who are mainly involved with us in MMI (U2) ("Man Machine Interface") design, software and hardware testing, CTA ("China Type Approval") certification, acquisition and phone main board updating and software adaptability testing. In addition, we work with cooperative partners, such as Dalian Daxian Telecom Co., Ltd. ("Daxian") and Mobicom Corporation ("Mobicom") in developing ID/MD and the layout of cellular phone main boards. Based on this research and development, our strategic business partners and we are then able to design and develop new products. We mainly cooperate with other professional design houses and work together on research and development projects. Whenever possible, we use and lease their instruments and equipment, rather than purchasing it ourselves. In the area of software compiling, testing & updating, we utilize data cables and computers installed with professional software in a testing environment. All the computers and data cables are owned by Xelent. As 3G continues to develop in the PRC in 2006, we anticipate that we will be able to develop our own 3G mobile phones based on both our own research and development efforts and cooperation with the strategic industry partners. We are now being negotiated with several parties including foreign 3G technology providers such as Spreadtrum Communication (Shanghai) Inc. ("SCI"), several 3G chipset and solution providers in order to get us well prepare the launch of 3 G services in coming future. We will put our efforts to focus on the development of the products in TDS-CDMA and WCDMA standard. Our strategic partners, such as SCI developed 2.5 G and 3G integrated circuit and provides 2.5G GPRS and 3G TDS-CDMA chipset and software development platforms and solutions, are the successful corporations in the PRC telecommunication industry. We believe the cooperation with 3G technology providers in working on future research and development projects will help facilitate our entry into the 3G wireless market. We have established a team for technology development. The members of our team are our product planning division, project management division and industrial design center. Our product planning division is responsible for constructing the medium term strategic plans and research and development scheduling. Our project management division administers our research and development efforts, overseas manufacturing and quality control of our products and monitors costs, including human resource costs. Our industrial design center is responsible for evaluating design plans provided by third party industrial design companies and confirming model structural design and tracing the issues on module production and quality. o Introduced the first watch-style cellular based on CDMA2000IX with joint efforts of Telson Electronics Co., Ltd, a South Korea company, in May of 2003. o Based on GPRS CLASS 10 module, developed the first GPRS cellular collaborating system, with South Korea's TELSON, which is based on WISMO PAC P5186D, the GPRS module of WAVECOM company, in May of 2003, which was introduced on October of 2003. o Formed a production line of 1 to 3-million Charge Coupled Device ("CCD") pixel camera by configuring high-resolution CMOS ("Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor") 5 We also cooperate with Sim Design Ltd. ("Sim Design") and Shenzhen Newplan Products Design Ltd. (`Newplan") in designing cellular phone features, appearances and functions to suit the tastes of Chinese consumers. Sim Design, which is located in South Korea, is an ID/MD design company wholly owned by Simcom. Newplan is a professional design company established approximately five years ago that provides ID/MD designs tailored to suit the needs and requirements of its customers, such as Xelent. We have formed long-term strategic relationship with Simcom and Mobicom for the development of all-in-one solution cellular phones. The capability of Simcom and Mobicom in wireless technology, software development, wireless application protocol, and production and testing provides us with comprehensive solutions for wireless products. Competition The Company faces substantial competition from other wireless phone manufacturers such as: Nokia, Motorola and Samsung, which controlled approximately 23.8%,13.3% and 9.6%, respectively, of the cellular market in the PRC in 2005. In addition we face competition from Ningbo Bird Corporation Ltd and Lenovo Group Limited, both of which are domestic PRC producers and controlled approximately 6.1% and 4.1%, respectively of the cellular market in the PRC in 2005. Government Regulation There is no government regulation banning or making material effect on Xelent, including but not limited, any law, rule or regulation or any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award binding on or applicable to Xelent. In the PRC cellular market, cellular manufacturers are responsible for repair, replacement and return of cellular phone to customers within the warranty period in accordance with certain rules and regulation in the PRC. Intellectual Property and Proprietary Rights Xelent has applied for "[GRAPHIC OMITTED][GRAPHIC OMITTED]"as the registered trademark and the China Trademark Agency has distributed "Notification of Acceptance" is serial number ZC3878232SL. We utilize other intellectual property legally with partners that we cooperate with through contracts or agreements. Employees We have approximately 185 employees. Of the 185 employees, 12 persons serve in management related capacities. The remaining employees are in 10 departments, namely the Product Planning Department which employs eight persons, the Project Management Department which employs seven persons; the Production Management Department which employs 14 persons; the Technology Support and Quality Control Department which employs 18 persons; the Business Management Department which employs 12 persons; the Administration and Strategy Planning Department which employs 13 persons; the Planning and Finance Department which employs 10 6 persons; the Human Resources Department which employs two persons; the Value-added Service Department which employs one person and the Customer Service Department which employs 88 persons. We believe that our relationship with our employees is good, and there are no collective bargaining arrangements in place. Item 1A. Risk Factors. You should carefully consider the following risks and the other information set forth elsewhere in this Current Report. If any of these risks occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. As a result, the trading price of our common stock could decline, perhaps significantly. Risks Related to Our Business Loss of significant customers, or other major customers, could casually hurt our business by reducing our revenues and profitability. Our success depends substantially upon retaining our significant clients. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to retain long-term relationships or secure renewals of short-term relationships with our significant clients in the future. We face intense competition. The market we serve is intensely competitive in the PRC. There are other providers that we compete with for business. There are low barriers to entry for new competitors in this market and we may experience negative impacts as a result of increased competition. In addition, our existing or potential competitors may in the future achieve greater market acceptance and gain additional market share, which in turn could reduce our revenues. We depend on key personnel for the success of our business. Our business may be severely disrupted if we lose the services of our key executives and employees or fail to add new senior and middle managers to our management. Our future success is heavily dependent upon the continued service of our key executives. Our future success is also dependent upon our ability to attract and retain qualified senior and middle managers to our management team. If one or more of our current or future key executives and employees are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, we may not be able to easily replace them, and our business may be severely disrupted. In addition, if any of these key executives or employees joins a competitor or forms a competing company, we could lose customers and suppliers and incur additional expenses to recruit and train personnel. Each of our executive officers has entered into an employment agreement with us. We also rely on a number of key technology staff for the operation of our company. Given the competitive nature of our industry, the risk of key technology staff leaving our company is little high and could disrupt our operations. 7 We rely on a third party production center. We utilize a third party production center for the manufacture of the products we sell to our customers. Should we be required to utilize a different source for our manufactured products our costs could be negatively affected. Rapid growth and a rapidly changing operating environment strain our limited resources. We will need to increase our investment in our technology infrastructure, facilities and other areas of operations, in particular our product development. If we are unable to manage our growth and expansion effectively, the quality of our products and services and in turn our customer support could deteriorate and our business may suffer. Our future success will depend on, among other things, our ability to: o Continue to develop through our research and development facilities new technologies acceptable to the PRC market, o continue training, motivating and retaining our existing employees and attract and integrate new employees, including our senior management, most of whom have been with our company for less than one year, o develop and improve our operational, financial, accounting and other internal systems and controls, and o maintain adequate controls and procedures to ensure that our periodic public disclosure under applicable laws, including U.S. securities laws, is complete and accurate. We may not be able to adequately protect our intellectual property, and we may be exposed to infringement claims by third parties. We rely on contractual restrictions on disclosure to protect our intellectual property rights. Monitoring unauthorized use of our information services is difficult and costly, and we cannot be certain that the steps we take will effectively prevent misappropriation of our technology and content. Our management may determine in the future to make application for copyright, trademark or trade secret protection if management determines that such protection would be beneficial and cost-effective. From time to time, we may have to resort to litigation to enforce our intellectual property rights, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources. In addition, third parties may initiate litigation against us for alleged infringement of their proprietary rights. In the event of a successful claim of infringement and our failure or inability to develop non-infringing technology or content or license the infringed or similar technology or content on a timely basis, our business could suffer. Moreover, even if we are able to license the infringed or similar technology or content, license fees that we pay to licensors could be substantial or uneconomical. We have limited business insurance coverage. The insurance industry in the PRC is still at an early stage of development. Insurance companies in the PRC offer limited business insurance products, and do not, to our knowledge, offer business liability insurance. As a 8 result, we do not have any business liability insurance coverage for our operations. Any business disruption, litigation or natural disaster might result in substantial costs and diversion of resources. Our ability to generate revenues could suffer if the Chinese market for cellular phones does not develop as anticipated. The cellular phones market in the PRC has evolved rapidly over the last four years, with the introduction of new products, development of consumer preferences, market entry by new competitors and adaptation of strategies by existing competitors. We expect each of these trends to continue, and we must continue to adapt our strategy to successfully compete in our market. It is extremely difficult to accurately predict consumer acceptance and demand for various existing and potential new offerings and services, and the future size, composition and growth of this market. Risks Related to Doing Business in the PRC A downturn in the Chinese economy may slow down our growth and profitability. The growth of the Chinese economy has been uneven across geographic regions and economic sectors. There can be no assurance that growth of the Chinese economy will be steady or that any downturn will not have a negative effect on our business. Our profitability will decrease if expenditures for wireless services decrease due to a downturn in the Chinese economy. More specifically, increased penetration of wireless services in the less economically developed central and western provinces of China will depend on those provinces achieving certain income levels so that cellular phones and related services become affordable to a significant portion of the population. Government regulation of the telecommunications industry may become more complex. Government regulation of the telecommunications industry is highly complex. New regulations could increase our costs of doing business and prevent us from efficiently delivering our services. These regulations may stop or slow down the expansion of our user base and limit the access to our services. The uncertain legal environment in China could limit the legal protections available to you. The Chinese legal system is a civil law system based on written statutes. Unlike common law systems, it is a system in which decided legal cases have little precedential value. In the late 1970s, the Chinese government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters. The overall effect of legislation enacted over the past 20 years has significantly enhanced the protections afforded to foreign invested enterprises in China. However, these laws, regulations and legal requirements are relatively recent and are evolving rapidly, and their interpretation and enforcement involve uncertainties. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to foreign investors, such as the right of foreign invested enterprises to hold licenses and permits such as requisite business licenses. 9 Any recurrence of severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS, or another widespread public health problem, could adversely affect our business and results of operations. A renewed outbreak of SARS or another widespread public health problem in China, where all of our revenue is derived, and in Beijing where our operations are headquartered, could have a negative effect on our operations. Our operations may be impacted by a number of health-related factors, including the following: o quarantines or closures of some of our offices which would severely disrupt our operations, o the sickness or death of our key officers and employees, and o a general slowdown in the Chinese economy. Any of the foregoing events or other unforeseen consequences of public health problems could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Changes in China's political and economic policies could harm our business. The economy of China has historically been a planned economy subject to governmental plans and quotas and has, in certain aspects, been transitioning to a more market-oriented economy. Although we believe that the economic reform and the macroeconomic measures adopted by the Chinese government have had a positive effect on the economic development of China, we cannot predict the future direction of these economic reforms or the effects these measures may have on our business, financial position or results of operations. In addition, the Chinese economy differs from the economies of most countries belonging to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, or OECD. These differences include: o economic structure; o level of government involvement in the economy; o level of development; o level of capital reinvestment; o control of foreign exchange; o methods of allocating resources; and o balance of payments position. As a result of these differences, our business may not develop in the same way or at the same rate as might be expected if the Chinese economy were similar to those of the OECD member countries. Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive and use our revenues effectively. Because almost all of our future revenues may be in the form of Renminbi, any future restrictions on currency exchanges may limit our ability to use revenue generated in Renminbi to fund any future business activities outside China or to make dividend or other payments in U.S. dollars. Although the 10 Chinese government introduced regulations in 1996 to allow greater convertibility of the Renminbi for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain, including primarily the restriction that foreign invested enterprises may only buy, sell or remit foreign currencies, after providing valid commercial documents, at those banks authorized to conduct foreign exchange business. In addition, conversion of Renminbi for capital account items, including direct investment and loans, is subject to governmental approval in China, and companies are required to open and maintain separate foreign exchange accounts for capital account items. We cannot be certain that the Chinese regulatory authorities will not impose more stringent restrictions on the convertibility of the Renminbi, especially with respect to foreign exchange transactions. The value of our securities will be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and Renminbi. The value of our common stock will be affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and Renminbi. For example, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into Renminbi for our operational needs and should the Renminbi appreciate against the U.S. dollar at that time, our financial position and the price of our common stock may be adversely affected. Conversely, if we decide to convert our Renminbi into U.S. dollars for the purpose of declaring dividends on our ordinary shares or for other business purposes and the U.S. dollar appreciates against the Renminbi, the U.S. dollar equivalent of our earnings from our subsidiaries in China would be reduced. Risks Related to our Common Stock The market price for our common stock may be volatile. The market price for our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors including the following: o actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly operating results, o announcements of new products and services by us or our competitors, o changes in financial estimates by securities analysts, o changes in the economic performance or market valuations of other companies providing similar products and services, o announcements by our competitors of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments, o additions or departures of key personnel, o potential litigation, or o conditions in the cellular phone market. In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock. 11 Stockholders could experience substantial dilution. We may issue additional shares of our capital stock to raise additional cash for working capital. If we issue additional shares of our capital stock, our stockholders will experience dilution in their respective percentage ownership in the company. We have no present intention to pay dividends. We have never paid dividends or made other cash distributions on our common stock, and do not expect to declare or pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain future earnings, if any, for working capital and to finance current operations and expansion of our business. A large portion of our common stock is controlled by a small number of stockholders. A large portion of our common stock is held by a small number of stockholders. As a result, these stockholders are able to influence the outcome of stockholder votes on various matters, including the election of directors and extraordinary corporate transactions including business combinations. In addition, the occurrence of sales of a large number of shares of our common stock, or the perception that these sales could occur, may affect our stock price and could impair our ability to obtain capital through an offering of equity securities. Furthermore, the current ratios of ownership of our common stock reduce the public float and liquidity of our common stock which can in turn affect the market price of our common stock. We may be subject to "penny stock" regulations. The U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in "penny stocks." Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system). Penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, which specifies information about penny stocks and the nature and significance of risks of the penny stock market. A broker-dealer must also provide the customer with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer, and our sales person in the transaction, and monthly account statements indicating the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for stock that becomes subject to those penny stock rules. Whenever any of our securities become subject to the penny stock rules, holders of those securities may have difficulty in selling those securities. 12 Our securities are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, which limits the liquidity and price of our securities more than if our securities were quoted or listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market or a national exchange. Our securities are traded in the over-the-counter market and quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, an inter-dealer automated quotation system for equity securities sponsored and operated by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or NASD, but not included in The Nasdaq Stock Market. Quotation of our securities on the OTC Bulletin Board limits the liquidity and price of our securities more than if our securities were quoted or listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market or a national exchange. Lack of liquidity will limit the price at which you may be able to sell our securities or your ability to sell our securities at all. Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments. Not applicable. Item 2.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and footnotes thereto contained in this report. Overview The Company was organized under the laws of State of Delaware in May 2004, under the name "Universal Flirts Corp". On June 1, 2004, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of Universal Flirts Inc., a New York corporation, from Darrel Lerner, the sole shareholder, in consideration for the issuance of 8,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock to Mr. Lerner pursuant to a stock exchange agreement between Universal Flirts Inc. and the Company. Pursuant to the purchase and share exchange transaction, Universal Flirts Inc. became the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. 17 Pursuant to Stock Transfer Agreement dated March 29, 2005, the Company transferred all of the common stock of Universal Flirts, Inc. to Mr. Darrell Lerner in exchange for the cancellation of 28,200,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The Company then had 14,756,000 shares of its common stock outstanding. On March 31, 2005, Universal Flirts Corp. completed a stock exchange transaction with the stockholders of UFIL. The exchange was consummated under the laws of State of Delaware and pursuant to the terms of Exchange Agreement. In connection with its acquisition of UFIL, the Company also authorized a 4-1 forward split of its common stock. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, Universal Flirts Corp. issued 15,000,000 shares of its common stock, $0.001 par value, to the stockholders of UFIL, representing approximately 50.41% of the Company's issued and outstanding common stock, in exchange for 20,000,000 outstanding shares of UFIL and cash payment of $50,000 from UFIL. Immediately after giving effect to the exchange, the Company had 29,756,000 shares of its common stock outstanding. On April 19, 2005, the Company changed its listed name to Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc. Pursuant to the exchange, UFIL became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and most of the Company's business operations are now conducted through Xelent, UFIL's wholly-owned subsidiary See, Item 1. Business In July, 2005 a wholly owned subsidiary, namely Orsus Xelent Trading (HK) Company Limited was incorporated in Hong Kong. Orsus Xelent Trading (HK) Company Limited is engaged in the trading of cellular phones and accessories with overseas customers. Business Review Since the 4th quarter 2004, the growth rate of the whole cellular phones market in the PRC slowed down as a result from (1) the oversupply of cellular phones in the market after the rapid growth in last few years; (2) the mass production of the simple function cellular phones products due to rapidly changing customer preferences; (3) obsolescence of slow-moving cellular phones products in 2004; and (4) competition from the counterfeit and "black market" cellular phones in the PRC market, which affect the market environment of the PRC cellular phones industry as well as the profitability of our domestic legitimate manufacturers. These factors caused domestic branded manufacturers to clear inventories through price-cutting or stopping production. Most of the small cellular phones manufacturers in the PRC were forced to operate at loss and eventually exited the market. The cellular phones market in the PRC is characterized by rapidly changing customer preferences. Cellular phones with multi-media, FM ratio, large memory capacity functions replaced camera and color display functions and rapidly became the most popular products in 2005. Additionally, foreign manufacturers have made substantial investment in the promotion of mid to low end products. They have launched a significant number of new products into the PRC market and spent a substantial amount on advertising, which has resulted in foreign manufacturers increasing their market share to the detriment of domestic manufacturers. In response to the fierce competition in the PRC cellular phones market, we enhanced the quality and function of our products to increase our competitive edge. During 2005, multimedia cellular phones were the mainstream products in 18 the market. In the first half of 2005, we successfully developed new platforms, namely SpreadTrum and MTK , which enabled us to develop a series of low to moderately priced new products, namely 70A(70+), 62+, 8205, 60+ and M72, with innovative functions, such as multi-media, MPEG4, FM radio, stereo sound, over one mega pixels photography and large memory capacity, to meet the rapid change in the PRC market. We intend to continue to launch new products timely with advanced features. A two mega pixel camera and intelligent handwriting PDA cellular phone, namely D9000, was launched into market in the end of March 2006. Through the introduction of new products with advanced features and low and moderate price, our products and brand would penetrate the PRC market. We believe our revenues could be maintained at a steady growth rate in the coming year. In the second half of 2005, we provided the solution and software for CDMA cellular phones manufacturers to enhance their development of innovation features products. Additionally, we cooperated with a domestic telecommunication operator and a cellular phone manufacturer in the production of innovative features for CDMA cellular phones and through this process we were able to enter the CDMA cellular phones market. Since most of the telecommunication operators in PRC are all big enterprises, we believe that a good business relationship with those telecommunication operators will be beneficial to our business and we, therefore, will continue to cooperate with the telecommunication operators whenever possible. To establish a more diversified revenue base, we also successfully developed the trading business in domestic and Hong Kong market. Although, the trading activities only attributed minimal revenues to us in 2005, we believe that the risk of concentration in a single market can be minimized and our brand can be further promoted through the development of overseas markets for our products. To increase our competitiveness, we are in the process of applying for a license to produce our own GSM cellular phone. We are seeking this license through a joint venture with a domestic cellular phone manufacturer, namely Chang Zhou Moben Communication Co., Ltd In addition, we are also exploring opportunities with other domestic cellular phone manufacturers in this regard. Although, the license application process is still at an early stage, we are working diligently to obtain the license as quickly as we can so that we can start to produce our own GSM cellular phone. Going forward, we will continue to adopt effective cost control measures to enhance our competitiveness, launch new products in timely manner, explore business opportunities with telecommunication operators and develop the sales in overseas market. Although the overall business environment in the PRC cellular phone industry in 2005 was difficult and our revenues decreased by 59.47% to $29 million, the gradually improving operating environment in the latter part of 2005 permitted us to introduce to the market, with the cooperation of our telecommunication partner, new products with innovative features . This enabled us to maintain products margins above 21.5% in 2005, and compared with 20.6% in 2004, our profitability was not adversely affected by the intense competition in the domestic PRC market. 19

Application of critical accounting policies and estimates Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, including those related to revenue recognition, inventories, adequacy of allowances for doubtful accounts, valuation of long-lived assets, income taxes, and warranties. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The policies discussed below are considered by management to be critical to an understanding of our financial statements. Revenue recognition Net sales represent the invoiced value of goods, net of value-added tax ("VAT") and returns. We generally recognize product revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is probable. We have a policy of including handling costs incurred for finished goods, which are not significant, in sales and marketing expenses. 20 Warranties We offer warranties on the products we manufacture. Terms generally are for one year from the date of sale. Provision for warranty expense is established for costs that are expected to be incurred after the sales and delivery of products under warranty. We provided for anticipated warranty expense in the amount of $452,000 and paid warranty claims of $330,000 during the year ended December 31, 2005. The warranty provision is determined based on known product failures, historical experience of the level of repairs and replacements, and other currently available evidence. Income taxes Provision for income and other related taxes have been provided in accordance with the tax rates and laws in effect in PRC. Income tax expense is computed based on pre-tax income included in the consolidated statements of operations. Deferred income taxes are provided, using the liability method, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts. The tax consequences of those differences are classified as current or non-current based upon the classification of the related assets or liabilities in the consolidated financial statements. Trade receivables and allowance for doubtful accounts Trade receivables are recorded at original invoice amount, less an estimated allowance for uncollectible accounts. Trade credit is generally extended on a short-term basis, thus trade receivables do not bear interest. Trade receivables are periodically evaluated for collectibility based on past credit history with customers and their current financial condition. Changes in the estimated collectibility of trade receivables are recorded in the results of operations for the year in which the estimate is revised. Trade receivables are presented net of an allowance for uncollectible amounts of $141,000 and $0 as of December 31, 2005 and of 2004 respectively. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Potential losses from obsolete and slow-moving inventories are provided for when identified. Cost, which comprises all costs of purchase and, where applicable, other costs that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition, is calculated using the weighted average method. Market represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Impairment of long-lived assets The long-lived assets we hold and use are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. It is reasonably possible that these assets could become impaired as a result of technology or other industry changes. Determination of 21 recoverability of assets to be held and used is by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Results of operation Revenues Our revenues were $28,705,000 in 2005, representing a decrease of 59.47% as compared to the same period in 2004. The decrease was primarily due to fierce competition of the RPC cellular phone market. The cellular phone manufactures' enlarging production capability during the past years rapid growth of the industry period and accelerating speed of new products launch, lead to the shorter products lifecycle and the over supply. Additionally, the competition from the counterfeit and "black market" cellular phones in the PRC market which affect the operating mode and order, and market environment of the PRC cellular phones industry. For the purpose of meet to the changing market demands, we developed a series of new products with innovative functions to extend our product lines by using our newly developed platform SpreadTrum and MTK in the second half of the year. Our revenues had increased from 3,440,000 in the first half of the year to 25,265,000 in the second half of the year, represented 88.02% of the whole year revenues. The significant rise in the revenues was primarily due to the introduction of a series of new products with innovative functions, such as 70A, 62+, 8205, 60+, M72 and M36. During 2005, multimedia cellular phones were the mainstream product in the market. We captured the latest demand trend of domestic consumption market to launch the new models with leading features including MP3, MPEG4, FM radio and large memory capacity. Such new products also generated a higher profit margin to us. Additionally, in the second half of the year, we changed our strategy to develop cellular phone products other than the GSM system. We adopted the strategy to strengthen the cooperation with telecommunication operator and other cellular phone manufacturers to provide solution consultation in the production of CDMA cellular phones, model C100. The solution consultation included the knowledge of software application, field testing, mechanical and molding design and marketing. Through the co-operation with telecommunication operator and other cellular phones manufacturer, we participated in the CDMA cellular phones production and also built up a relationship with the telecommunication operator, which would provide us an opportunity to develop a potential CDMA market, and also generate a higher profit and stable orders from the telecommunication operator in future. During this quarter, the sales of C100 were $5,032,000, represents 17.53% of our revenues. In addition, during this quarter, we commenced cellular phone trading activities with domestic and overseas customers. In the domestic market, although the margin would be lower than the sales of self-produced cellular phones, we still can earn profit by using our existing strategic partners' sales networks. In the overseas market, we have successfully stepped out from PRC domestic market that 10,000 unit M18+ was sold to a customer in Hong Kong during 22 this quarter. We will further develop our product to overseas market, including Southeast Asia, Hong Kong and Middle East so as to further broaden our profit base. Breakdown by products For the year ended December 31, 2005, products attributed over 5% of our revenues are shown as follows: --------------------- ----------------------------------------------- Year ended December 31, 2005 --------------------- ----------------------------------------------- $'000 % of revenue --------------------- ---------------------------- ------------------ C100 5,032 17.53% --------------------- ---------------------------- ------------------ N108 2,326 8.10% --------------------- ---------------------------- ------------------ 8068 2,326 8.10% --------------------- ---------------------------- ------------------ OS70+ 1,959 6.82% --------------------- ---------------------------- ------------------ K600 1,443 5.03% --------------------- ---------------------------- ------------------ The sales of OS70+, represents 6.82% of our revenues and relates to the new products launched into market during this year. In the second half of the year, total sales of new products were over $4,410,000, represented 15.36% of total revenues. The sales of C100 amounting to $5,032,000, represented 17.53% of revenues, are the cooperation with a telecommunication operator. The trading activities generated from the sales of GSM cellular phones N108 and 8068 and CDMA cellular phone K600 were amount to $2,326,000, $ 2,326,000 and $1,443,000, respectively, represented 8.10%, 8.10% and 5.03% of revenues respectively. Through the introduction of new innovative features models and the development of new business streams, we believe, our revenues would have a stable growth since this quarter. Breakdown by customers ------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------- Year ended December 31, 2005 ------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------- $'000 % of revenue ------------------------------------------------- ----------- ----------------- Beijing Xingwang Shidai Tech & Trading Co., Ltd. 16,175 56.35% ------------------------------------------------- ----------- ----------------- Hebei Mascot Communication Equipment Co., Ltd 5,871 20.45% ------------------------------------------------- ----------- ----------------- CEC Cellular Limited 5,777 20.13% ------------------------------------------------- ----------- ----------------- Others 882 3.07% ------------------------------------------------- ----------- ----------------- Our revenues were primarily derived from three major customers. For the year 2005, our revenues mainly generated from Beijing Xingwang Shidai Tech & Trading Co., Ltd. ("XWSD"), Hebei Mascot Communication Equipment Co., Ltd ("MASCOT") and CEC Cellular Limited ("CECM") were $16,175,000, $5,871,000 and $5,777,000 respectively, which represents 56.35%, 20.45% and 20.13% of the revenue respectively. We have established strategic partnership with CECM and XWSD for a long period of time, both of which are provincial and national distributors and dealers, and the sales networks cover most of the main cities 23
all over the PRC. MASCOT is a newly developed provincial distributor since the 3rd quarter of 2005, its sales networks covers most of the main cities all the PRC, particularly in the northern region. It is our primary policy to broaden our distribution channels so as to minimize the concentration risk to few distributors. We will explore other opportunity continually to further develop our distribution channels. To enhance a healthy competition, MASCOT is mainly responsible to distribute our old products. Through the cooperation with different strategic partners in different areas, we believe we could further extend our distribution channels would stimulate our revenues in short-run and also strengthen our brand awareness finally. Other income, net For the year ended December 31, 2005, other income, net was $544,000, and accounted for 1.62% of the total revenues, as compared to $64,000, or 0.09% of total revenues for the corresponding period in 2004.

Operating expenses For year ended December 31, 2005, operating expenses mainly include sales and marketing expenses, general and administrative expenses and R & D expenses and shown as follows: ------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- ---------------------- Year ended December 31, Year ended December 31, Comparison 2005 2004 ------------------- ------------------------- ------------------------- ---------------------- $'000 % of revenue $'000 % of revenue $'000 % ------------------- ---------- -------------- ---------- -------------- ------------ --------- Cost of sales 22370 77.93% 56,231 79.40% -33,861 -60.22% ------------------- ---------- -------------- ---------- -------------- ------------ --------- Sales & marketing 1554 5.41% 3,314 4.68% -1,760 -53.11% ------------------- ---------- -------------- ---------- -------------- ------------ --------- General & admin 1064 3.71% 1,435 2.03% -371 -25.85% ------------------- ---------- -------------- ---------- -------------- ------------ --------- R&D 413 1.44% 586 0.83% -173 -29.52% ------------------- ---------- -------------- ---------- -------------- ------------ --------- Total 25,401 i@ 61,566 i@ -36,165 -58.74% ------------------- ---------- -------------- ---------- -------------- ------------ ---------
Cost of sales For the year ended December 31, 2005, our cost of sales were $22,370,000, representing 77.93% of revenue, compared to $56,231,000 and 79.40% of the corresponding period in 2004. Compared to the corresponding period in 2004, the cost of sales had a period-to-period decrease of 60.22%, which varied in line with our sales revenues decrease of 59.47%. Although the fierce competition led to the cutting of sales prices for old products, the cost of sales percentage to revenues can be maintained through our effectively control of raw materials used and negotiation of lower materials prices with suppliers, as wellas the high profit margin of our new products launched in the second half of the year. 24 Sales and marketing expenses Sales and marketing expenses mainly represent the free-gift and product model to customers and dealers respectively, cost of provision for after-sales services, remunerations for sales personnel and development of market. For the year ended December 31, 2005, sales and marketing expenses were $1,554,000, accounting for 5.41% of the total revenues, as compared to $3,314,000, or 4.68% of total revenues for the corresponding period in 2004. Sales and marketing expenses had a period-to-period decrease of 53.11%. The percentage in total revenues increased from 4.68% to 5.41% as compared to the corresponding period in 2004 are due to the total revenue's decrease and the approximately steady absolute expense. A large portion of sales and marketing expenses was fixed expenses, such as remunerations for sales personnel. Compared to the period ended June 30, 2005, the percentage represented in the total revenues decreased from 20.38% to 5.41% was due to sharp recovery of our revenues, and we effectively controlled the cost of marketing, including remunerations for sales personnel, after-sales repair cost and free-gift and product model to customers and dealers. R&D expenses The R&D cost was $413,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, which represents 1.44% of total revenue, compared with $586,000 and 0.83% respectively in the same period in 2004. R&D expenses incurred in 2004 mainly represented the ADI platform development expense and several models of mobile phone research expense. R&D expenses incurred in the year mainly represented the development cost on SPREADTRUM and MTK platform, some innovative features function, such as MP3, MPEG4 and U disk could be developed with utilization of these new platforms. Our R&D investment would allow us to respond to the market change quickly. We introduced many models of cellular phones with innovative functions this quarter, such as OS70+, M62+, OX8205. We expect the investment in R&D activities would be continued in next year. We believe that our R&D activities will strengthen our technologies, reduce the costs of existing products and also provide future revenue streams through the launch of new innovative products. General and administrative expenses General and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation for personnel, travel expenses, materials expenses related to ordinary administration and fees for professional services. For the year of December 31, 2005, general and administrative expenses were $1,064,000, accounting for 3.71% of the total revenues, as compared to $1,435,000, or 2.03% of the total revenues for the corresponding period in 2004. General and administrative expenses had a period-to-period sharply decrease of 25.85%. The period-to-period sharp decrease was mainly due to reduction of compensation for personnel by simplifying personnel and lower personnel compensation, and reduction of daily expense by economizing travel expenses and administrative expense. 25 Gross profit and gross margin For the year December 31, 2005, our gross profit was $ 6,335,000, which represented a decrease of 56.58% as compared to the gross profit of $14,591,000 in the same period in 2004. Our gross margin for the reporting period increased slightly from 20.06% in 2004 to 22.07% in 2005. A slightly increase in our gross margin under a fierce competition is attributable to new products successfully launched into the market and changea in our products mix. Although our gross margin decreased due to price reduction for sales promotion, it was offset by the high gross margin new products such as CDMA cellular phone C100. Overall, the gross margin has slightly increased. We controlled usage of raw materials effectively and reduced materials price by negotiation with suppliers, so as to control our cost of sales. Net income For the year ended of December 31, 2005, our net income was $3,492,000, as compared to net income of $8,699,000 of the same period in 2004. The recession in our profit is due to the tough environment since the 4th quarter 2004. Comparing with the 2nd quarter of 2005, our net income had increased sharply from net loss US$524,000 to net income US$4,016,000 in the second half of the year. Liquidity and Capital Resources We generally finance our operations from cash flow generated internally. As of December 31, 2005, we had current assets of $30,230,000. Current assets are mainly comprised of inventories of $4,460,000, accounts receivable of $12,034,000, trade deposits and other receivables aggregated of $10,580,000, and restricted cash, cash and cash equivalents of $2,974,000. Current liabilities comprised accounts payable of $7,939,000, trade deposit received of $5,432,000, accrued expenses and other accrued liabilities of $2,259,000, due to directors of $320,000, and provision for warranty of $122,000. We offer two trading terms to our customers, i.e. cash-on-delivery and on credit term within 90 days. As of December 31, 2005, our net accounts receivable were $12,034,000, compared to $8,250,000 as of December 31, 2004. 45.87% increase in the accounts receivable is due to significant growth in revenue generated during the second half of the year. We strictly request our customers to settle the outstanding receivables before new order is made. There is no particular change in our credit policy that three months credit period is offered to our long-term customers, XWSD, and two months credit period is offered to our new distributor, MASCOT. We have reviewed the credit risk regularly. Although some of the receivables are over due, the settlement from our major customers is continuing that about $3.3million was received in the first quarter of 2006. As of December 31, 2005, our inventories were $4,460,000, as compared to $5,781,000 as of December.31, 2004, which represented moderate decrease of 22.85%. The main reason for this decrease is due to overall drop in revenue. However, we have certain aged materials for production of older type of 26 products. We stimulated the sales of these products by reducing the selling price. Furthermore, we modified our old products, such as OS70, M62 by adding new functions (such as MP3, MPEG4 etc.). We have entered into agreements with overseas business partners for the sales of the old products such as OS70, etc. According to the agreements, we shall also develop our new solution platform by utilization of our old materials' inventories and launch the new products into the oversea market. The geographical difference could enhance difference demand to these products. We also have critically evaluated our inventories, provision for obsolete inventories amounting to $223,000 were made in this year. As of December 31, 2005, our cash and bank balances were mainly denominated in Renminbi ("RMB") and Hong Kong Dollar. Our revenue and expenses, assets and liabilities are mainly denominated in RMB. Renminbi had ceased to pledge at a relative constant rate to the United States dollar. Although Renminbi had been slightly inflated in July 2005, as a result of the change in pledging RMB against a basket of currencies instead of singly of the US dollar, our activities, assets and liabilities are mainly denominated in Renminbi, any further possible inflation of Renminbi would be benefit to us. We consider that the exposure to exchange fluctuations is relatively low and therefore we have not engaged in any hedging activity. Cash Flows As of December 31 2005, we have the restricted cash, cash and cash equivalents of $2,974,000, compared to $2,557,000 as of December 31, 2004, which representing an increase of 16.31%. It is mainly due to the repayment from a related company in the first quarter of 2005 and cash generated from our operating profit. $3,715,000 increase in accounts receivable and $6,266,000 decrease in accounts payable were due to significant growth in revenue since the second half of the year Our gearing ratio, calculated as total debts over total assets, was 51.83% as of December 31, 2005, 61.76% as of December 31, 2004. Contingent Liabilities As of December 31, 2005, we had not entered into any guarantee contracts nor any non-disclosed contracts which will affect stockholders' equity or share structure. Off Balance Sheet Arrangements As of December 31, 2005, we had no off balance sheet arrangements. 27

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. Market risk is the sensitivity of income to changes in interest rates, foreign exchanges, commodity prices, equity prices and other market-driven rates or prices. We are not presently engaged in and, if a suitable business target is not identified by us prior to the prescribed liquidation date of the trust fund, we may not engage in, any substantive commercial business. Accordingly, we are not and, until such time as we consummate a business combination, we will not be, exposed to risks associated with foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices or other market-driven rates or prices. The net proceeds of our initial public offering held in the trust fund have been invested only in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Given our limited risk in our exposure to money market funds, we do not view the interest rate risk to be significant. The Company considers Renminbi as its functional currency as a substantial portion of the Company's business activities are based in Renminbi. However, the Company has chosen the United States dollar as its reporting currency. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency during the year are translated into the functional currency at the applicable rates of exchange prevailing at the time of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than functional currency are translated into functional currency at the applicable rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Exchange gains and losses are recorded in the combined statements of operations. For translation of financial statements into the reporting currency, assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate at the balance sheet date, equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates, and revenues, expenses, gains and losses are translated at the weighted average rates of exchange prevailing during the period. Translation adjustments, when material resulting from this process are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within stockholders' equity. 28 Item 8.

Based upon that evaluation, management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective in alerting it in a timely manner to information relating to the Company required to be disclosed in this report.

As described in Note 2 below, prior to the reorganization with United First International Limited ("UFI"), a company incorporated in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region ("HK") of the People's Republic of China (the "PRC"), on March 31, 2005, ORXT was a development stage company, which, other than providing an online dating service, had no operations or revenues. After recapitalization, ORXT exited the development stage after March 31, 2005. Upon the completion of the reorganization, ORXT assumed the business operations of UFI as primarily undertaken by its subsidiary, Beijing Orsus Xelent Technologies & Trading Co., Limited ("BOXT") (English translation for identification purpose only), an enterprise established in Beijing, the PRC that is engaged in the business of designing for retail and wholesale distribution cellular phones. BOXT had a 55% interest in Shanghai Sapphine Telecom Tech Co., Ltd. ("Sapphine") (English translation for identification purpose only), a company engaged in research and development of cellular phones which was incorporated in the PRC. On August 19, 2004, the owners of Sapphine signed an agreement to liquidate Sapphine. On July 14, 2005, Orsus Xelent Holdings (BVI) Limited ("OXHBVI") was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands ("BVI") with issued capital of US$2. OXHBVI is 100% owned by ORXT and the principal activity of OXHBVI is investment holding. On July 22, 2005, Orsus Xelent Trading (HK) Company Limited ("OXTHK") was incorporated in HK with issued capital of HK$100 (equivalent to US$13), a company engaged in trading of mobile phone and accessories, and is 100% owned by OXHBVI. 2. REORGANIZATION a) Reorganization On March 18, 2005, the board of directors approved a 4-for-1 forward split of its issued and outstanding common stock with a record date of March 28, 2005. Pursuant to a Stock Transfer Agreement dated March 29, 2005, ORXT transferred all of the common stock of Universal Flirts, Inc. to Mr. Darrell Lerner in exchange for the cancellation of 28,200,000 shares of ORXT's common stock. Subsequently, ORXT had 14,756,000 shares of its common stock outstanding. b) Recapitalization Effective on March 31, 2005, ORXT completed a stock exchange transaction with the stockholders of UFI. Pursuant to the Securities Exchange Agreement, ORXT issued 15,000,000 shares of its common stock to the stockholders of UFI, in exchange for 20,000,000 outstanding shares of UFI and cash payment of US$50,000 from UFI. After giving effect to the exchange, ORXT had 29,756,000 shares of its common stock outstanding. As a result of the exchange, UFI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of ORXT. F-6 Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. REORGANIZATION (CONTINUED) b) Recapitalization (Continued) For accounting purposes, the transaction has been treated as a recapitalization of UFI with ORXT being the legal survivor and UFI being the accounting survivor and the operating entity. That is, the historical financial statements prior to March 31, 2005 are those of UFI, even though they are labeled as those of ORXT. Retained earnings of the accounting survivor, UFI, is carried forward after the recapitalization. Operations prior to the recapitalization are those of the accounting survivor, UFI. Earnings per share for periods prior to the recapitalization are restated to reflect the equivalent number of shares. Upon completion of the transaction, the financial statements become those of the operating company, with adjustments to reflect the changes in equity structure and receipt of the assets/liabilities of the public shell, ORXT. Accordingly, the Company's stockholders' equity as of December 31, 2004 has been recapitalized and restated. Following the recapitalization, ORXT held 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of UFI and UFI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of ORXT. In this report, ORXT, UFI, BOXT Sapphine, OXHBVI and OXTHK are collectively referred to as the "Company". c) Merger under common control UFI was incorporated in Hong Kong on September 8, 2004 and was 20%, 40% and 40% owned by Mr. Wang Xin, Mr. Liu Yu and Mr. Wang Zhibin respectively. UFI has had no operations since its incorporation. Pursuant to the agreement entered into between UFI and Mr. Wang Xin, Mr. Liu Yu and Mr. Wang Zhibin, who owned 20%, 40% and 40% interests respectively in BOXT on November 1, 2004, UFI consummated a merger with BOXT, and paid USD1,207,000, to all owners of Xelent, in exchange for all their beneficial interests in BOXT ("the Agreement"). BOXT was established in the PRC on May 6, 2003 as a PRC company with limited liability. The principal activities of BOXT were the development of cellular phones software and technology, including the design and trading of cellular phones. On November 3, 2004, the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Commerce (the "Bureau") approved the transfer of interests and the application for the change of BOXT status to a wholly-owned foreign investment enterprise ("WOFIE") with limited liability. Upon granting WOFIE status, the operating period of BOXT was for an initial term of 10 years until November 9, 2014 and UFI became the sole registered owner of BOXT. Consistent with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141 "Business Combinations", transfers of net assets or exchanges of equity interests between entities under common control do not constitute business combinations. Because UFI and Xelent were beneficially owned by the same stockholders group, Mr. Wang Xin, Mr. Liu Yu and Mr. Wang Zhibin, immediately before and after the combination, the Agreement has been accounted for as a combination of entities under common control on a historical cost basis in a manner similar to a pooling of interests. In accordance with USGAAP, the accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared as if the Merger had occurred and UFI had been incorporated at the beginning of the earliest period presented, as of May 6, 2003. F-7 Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Accounting principles The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("USGAAP"). Basis of consolidation The results of the subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are consolidated from the effective dates of acquisition or to the effective dates of disposal, respectively. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. Revenue recognition Net sales represent the invoiced value of goods, net of value-added tax ("VAT") and returns. The Company generally recognizes product revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is probable. The Company has a policy of including handling costs incurred for finished goods, which are not significant, in sales and marketing expenses. Research and development All cost of research and development activities are expensed as incurred. Warranties The Company offers warranties for products it manufactures. Terms generally are for one year from the date of sale. Provision for warranty expense is established for costs that are expected to be incurred after the sales and delivery of products under warranty. The Company provided for anticipated warranty expense in the amount of US$452,000 and paid warranty claims of US$330,000 during the year ended December 31, 2005. The warranty provision is determined based on known product failures, historical experience of the level of repairs and replacements, and other currently available evidence. Income taxes Provision for income and other related taxes have been provided in accordance with the tax rates and laws in effect in PRC. Income tax expense is computed based on pre-tax income included in the consolidated statements of operations. Deferred income taxes are provided, using the liability method, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts. The tax consequences of those differences are classified as current or non-current based upon the classification of the related assets or liabilities in the consolidated financial statements. F-8 Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Comprehensive income SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", requires the presentation of comprehensive income, in addition to the existing statements of operations. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity during the year from transactions and other events, excluding the changes resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Trade receivables Trade receivables are recorded at original invoice amount, less an estimated allowance for uncollectible accounts. Trade credit is generally extended on a short-term basis, thus trade receivables do not bear interest. Trade receivables are periodically evaluated for collectibility based on past credit history with customers and their current financial condition. Changes in the estimated collectibility of trade receivables are recorded in the results of operations for the year in which the estimate is revised. Trade receivables are presented net of an allowance for uncollectible amounts of US$141,000 and US$0 as of December 31, 2005 and of 2004 respectively. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Potential losses from obsolete and slow-moving inventories are provided for when identified. Cost, which comprises all costs of purchase and, where applicable, other costs that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition, is calculated using the weighted average method. Market represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at original cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of an asset comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its present working condition and location for its intended use. Expenditures incurred after the assets have been put into operation, such as repairs and maintenance, overhaul and minor renewals and betterments, are normally charged to operating expenses in the year in which they are incurred. In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that the expenditure has resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of the assets, the expenditure is capitalized. When assets are sold or retired, their costs and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the financial statements and any gain or loss resulting from their disposal is recognized in the year of disposition as an element of other income, net. F-9 Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Property, plant and equipment (Continued) Depreciation is provided to write off the costs of property, plant and equipment over their useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated residual values, using the following methods: Moulds Sum-of-the-units method Leasehold improvements o Straight-line method over the lease term Machinery and equipment o Straight-line method at 20% p.a. o Office equipment Straight-line method at 20% p.a. o Motor vehicles Straight-line method at 20% p.a. Impairment of long-lived assets The long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. It is reasonably possible that these assets could become impaired as a result of technology or other industry changes. Determination of recoverability of assets to be held and used is by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Operating leases Leases where substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership of assets remain with the leasing company are accounted for as operating leases. Rental payables under operating leases are recognized as expenses on the straight-line basis over the lease terms. Foreign currency translation The Company considers Renminbi as its functional currency as a substantial portion of the Company's business activities are based in Renminbi. However, the Company has chosen the United States dollar as its reporting currency. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency during the year are translated into the functional currency at the applicable rates of exchange prevailing at the time of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than functional currency are translated into functional currency at the applicable rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Exchange gains and losses are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. For translation of financial statements into the reporting currency, assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate at the balance sheet date, equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates, and revenues, expenses, gains and losses are translated at the weighted average rates of exchange prevailing during the year. F-10 Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Foreign currency translation (Continued) Translation adjustments, when material, resulting from this process are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within stockholders' equity. Other comprehensive income for foreign currency translation was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2005 after the Renminbi ceased to be pegged to the United States Dollar during the year. Cash equivalents The Company considers short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Use of estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with USGAAP requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported year. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for certain items such as allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciation, inventory allowance, provision for warranty, taxes and contingencies. Segment information Operating segments are defined as components of a company about which separated financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company operates in a single business segment of trading of mobile phones which are all sold in the PRC. There is no reportable business or geographical segment identified and no segment information is disclosed accordingly. Related parties Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence. Recently issued accounting standards There are no new accounting pronouncements for which adoption is expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. F-11 Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period as restated as a result of the reorganization and recapitalization as described in Note 2. The 29,756,000 shares in connection with the recapitalization were included in the computation of earnings per share as if outstanding at the beginning of each period presented. The Company had no potential common stock equivalents with a dilutive effect for any period presented, therefore basic and diluted earnings per share are the same. 5. CONCENTRATIONS The Company is engaged principally in the development of mobile software and technology, including the design and trading of cellular phones for sale primarily to three dealers in the PRC. The Company buys certain major materials from six major suppliers. In addition, the Company subcontracts assembly works of cellular phones mainly to five subcontracting factories. Management believes that the sole agent arrangement gives the dealers more incentive to promote the Company's products and reduce the Company's exposure to the distribution market. On the other hand, the diversification of suppliers will reduce the risk of increasing production cost. Customers accounted for over 10% of the Company's operating revenues as follows: 2005 2004 % % Customer A 20 77 Customer B 56 21 Customer C 20 - ========== ========== Trade deposits received from the above customers were US$0 and US$2,487,000 at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. Trade receivables from the above customers were US$11,508,000 and US$8,250,000 at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. Suppliers accounted for over 10% of the Company's purchases are as follows: 2005 2004 % % Supplier A 10 44 Supplier B 19 - Supplier C 15 - Supplier D 14 - Supplier E 12 - Supplier F 7 10 ========== ========== Trade deposits from the above suppliers were US$759,000 and US$1,323,000 at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004. Trade payables owed to the above suppliers were US$529,000 and US$0 at December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively. F-12 Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc.

INCOME TAXES The Company is subject to income taxes on an entity basis on income arising in or derived from the tax jurisdictions in which it operates. ORXT had a net operating loss carry-forward for income tax reporting purposes of approximately US$227,070 that might be offset against future taxable income. These net operating loss carry-forwards are severely limited when the Company experiences a change in control. Therefore, following the recapitalization as mentioned in Note 2, the amount available to offset future taxable income might be limited. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements because the Company believes there is more likely than not the carry-forwards will be limited. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the loss carry-forwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount. F-13 Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8. INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED) No provision for withholding or United States federal or state income taxes or tax benefits on the undistributed earnings and/or losses of the Company's subsidiaries has been provided as the earnings of these subsidiaries, in the opinion of the management, will be reinvested indefinitely. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred taxes on these earnings is not practical, however, unrecognized foreign tax credits would be available to reduce a portion of the tax liability. UFI was incorporated in Hong Kong and has no assessable profit for the year presented. OXTHK was also incorporated in Hong Kong and Hong Kong Profits Tax has been provided at the rate of 17.5% on OXT's estimated assessable profits for the year. Since BOXT has registered as a wholly-owned foreign investment enterprise ("WOFIE"), it is subject to tax laws applicable to WOFIE in the PRC and is fully exempt from the PRC enterprise income tax for two years followed by a 50% reduction for the next three years, commencing fiscal year 2005. Reconciliation from the expected statutory tax rate in PRC of 24% (2004: 33%) is as follows: 2005 2004 % % Statutory rate - PRC 24.0 33.0 Difference in tax rates in the countries that the Company operates (0.1) -- Tax exemption (23.8) (33.0) Non-deductible expenses 0.6 -- -------- -------- Effective tax rate 0.7 -- ======== ======== 9. DISTRIBUTION OF INCOME The Company's income is substantially contributed by BOXT, a company incorporated in the PRC. Income of BOXT is distributable to its stockholders after transfer to dedicated reserves as required under its articles of association and relevant PRC rules and regulations. Prior to the re-organization to a WOFIE in November 2004, dedicated reserves of BOXT include a statutory surplus reserve and a statutory public welfare fund. In accordance with the relevant PRC Companies Law and rules and regulations, it is required to transfer amounts equal to at least 10% and 5% of its after-tax income to the statutory surplus reserve and statutory public welfare fund, respectively. The statutory surplus reserve can only be utilized to offset prior years' losses or for capitalization as paid-in capital, whereas the statutory public welfare fund shall be utilized for collective staff welfare benefits such as building staff quarters or housing. No distribution of the remaining reserves shall be made other than on liquidation of BOXT. F-14
Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 9. DISTRIBUTION OF INCOME (CONTINUED) Since BOXT has became as a WOFIE, in accordance with its Articles of Association and the relevant PRC regulations, it is required to transfer to a general reserve fund an amount not less than 10% of the amount of after-tax income and a staff welfare and bonus fund an amount to be determined by the directors. 10. PENSION COSTS As stipulated by PRC regulations, the Company maintains a defined contribution retirement plan for all of its employees who are residents of PRC. All retired employees of the Company are entitled to an annual pension equal to their basic annual salary upon retirement. The Company contributed to a state sponsored retirement plan approximately 20% of the basic salary of its employees and has no further obligations for the actual pension payments or post-retirement benefits beyond the annual contributions. The state sponsored retirement plan is responsible for the entire pension obligation payable to all employees. The pension expenses were US$15,000 and US$9,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 respectively. 11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION a.

Rental expenses under operating leases were USD83,000 and USD126,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 respectively. The following table summarizes the approximate future minimum rental payments under non-cancelable operating leases in effect as of December 31, 2005 and 2004: 2005 2004 USD'000 USD'000 2005 -- 28 2006 27 -- 2007 27 -- --------- --------- 44 28 ========= ========= F-16 Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc.
