CHINA ENERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTH PERIODS ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 2010 AND 2009
(UNAUDITED)
 
1. Organization and Business

Organization of the Company

China Energy Corporation (the “Company”) is a Nevada corporation, formed on October 11, 2002 under the name Omega Project Consultations, Inc.  The name was changed to China Energy Corporation on November 3, 2004.  On November 30, 2004, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Inner Mongolia Tehong Coal Group Co., Ltd. (“Coal Group”), and Inner Mongolia Zhunger Heat Power Co. Ltd. (“Heat Power”) and their respective shareholders. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger, a procedure that treats the transaction as though Coal Group had acquired the Company.  Under the accounting for a reverse merger, the assets and liabilities of the Company, which were nil at the time, were recorded on the books of Coal Group, the continuing company, and the stockholders’ equity accounts of Coal Group were reorganized to reflect the shares issued in this transaction.

The share exchange agreement, which resulted in the Company’s acquisition of the Coal Group and Heat Power, was governed by and valid under Nevada law and was not perfected under the then People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) law.  It was not until certain changes in PRC law, which became definitive in 2006, that the Company was made clear that a series of procedures of governmental approvals and certain additional corporate actions would be condition precedents to that perfection.

The Company does not believe the lack of perfection impairs its ability to exercise control over the Coal Group and Heat Power as it continues to exercise control over them, consistent with the intent of the original shareholders.    The Company  controls Coal Group and Heat Power operating through a series of contractual arrangements as opposed to through direct record ownership,

The Company is in the process of completing the necessary actions to meet the current PRC legal requirements related to the acquisition of Coal Group and Heat Power.  On July 13, 2009, the Company entered into a framework agreement which detailed the actions contemplated for the restructuring of the Company, Coal Group and Heat Power under a “variable interest entity” (“VIE”) structure to meet the current requirements of applicable PRC law.

The framework agreement provides that (i)  the Company will establish a newly-formed, indirect subsidiary of the Company incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (“CEC China”), (ii) CEC China will enter an exclusive service agreement and option agreement with each of Coal Group and Heat Power (collectively, the “Operating Companies”) and a share pledge agreement with each of the Operating Companies and certain of their respective PRC Shareholders (“PRC Shareholders”). The framework agreement also requires the PRC Shareholders to fully authorize CEC China to exercise all shareholders’ rights that the PRC Shareholders can exercise in the Operating Companies. By entering into the framework agreement and subsequently setting up the structure involving the use of VIEs, the Company will have the control and the economic benefits and costs of ownership of the Operating Companies consistent with PRC regulatory requirements.

The Company contemplates that the restructuring process will be completed during 2010.

Business

The Company’s business is made up of two segments: Coal Group and Heat Power.

Coal Group: Coal Group was organized in China on August 8, 2000 as Inner Mongolia Zhunger Tehong Coal Co., Ltd. The name was changed in December 2003 to Inner Mongolia Tehong Coal Group Co. Ltd. Coal Group acquired the rights to  a coal mine in the Inner Mongolia District from which it produces coal. It also buys, sells, and transports coal, serving the Inner Mongolia District.  Coal Group has the capacity to produce approximately up to 800,000 metric tons per year following the enhancement of the mine’s productions lines, which was completed in August of 2009.

Heat Power: During 2003, Heat Power was granted a license, to supply heating to the entire XueJiaWan area.  To provide for this requirement, construction began in 2004 on a thermoelectric plant, which was completed in September 2006.  Heat Power supplies heating directly to users and supplies electricity within the XueJiaWan area through a government controlled intermediary, Inner Mongolia Electric Power Group Co., Ltd. (“Electric Power Group”).

Heat Power obtains its supply of powdered coal required to generate heat production from Zhunger County Guanbanwusu Coalmine (“Guanbanwusu”). It also obtains its supply through various other coal mines in the area.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting and Presentation

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and Coal Group and Heat Power.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

A subsidiary is an entity in which the Company, directly or indirectly, controls more than one half of the voting power; has the power to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors; to cast majority of votes at the meeting of the board of directors or to govern the financial and operating policies of the investee under a statute or agreement among the shareholders or equity holders.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (“SFAS 141R”), as codified in FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the “ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”).  The objective of ASC 805 is to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects.  To accomplish this, ASC 805 establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer (a) recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, (b) recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain price, and (c) determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination.  SFAS 141R, now codified in ASC 805, is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008.  The Company’s adoption of ASC 805 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements an amendment of ARB No.51 (“SFAS 160”), as codified in FASB ASC Subtopic 810-10, Consolidation (“ASC 810-10”).   ASC 810-10 requires that non-controlling (or minority) interests in subsidiaries be reported in the equity section of the company’s balance sheet, rather than in a mezzanine section of the balance sheet between liabilities and equity.  Additionally, ASC 810-10 revises the manner in which the net income of the subsidiary is reported and disclosed in the controlling company’s income statement and also establishes guidelines for accounting or changes in ownership percentages and for deconsolidation.  ASC 810-10 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and interim periods within those years.  The Company’s adoption of ASC 810-10 did not to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” which is codified as FASB ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments” (“ASC 825”). The ASC 825 amends SFAS No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, now codified in ASC 825, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements.  This issuance also amends APB Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting,” now codified in FASB Topic 270 “Interim Reporting” (“ASC 270”), to require those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods.  FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, now codified in ASC 825 were effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009.  The issuance does not require disclosures for earlier periods presented for comparative purposes at initial adoption.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 115-2 and FAS No. 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments (“FSP FAS No. 115-2 and FAS 124-2”), which are codified in FASB Topic 320, Investments-Debt and Equity Security (“ASC 320”).  FSP FAS No. 115-2, now codified in ASC 320 provides additional guidance designed to create greater clarity and consistency in accounting for and presenting impairment losses on securities.  This FSP is effective for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009, but early adoption is permitted for interim periods ending after March 15, 2009.  The adoption of ASC 320 did not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB released  FSP FAS No. 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (“FSP FAS No. 157-4”), now codified in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.”  This issuance  provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with ASC 820, when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decrease with providing guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly.  ASC 820 was effective for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009, and the adoption of ASC 820 did not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events (“SFAS 165”), as codified in FASB ASC 855, Subsequent Events (“ASC 855”).  ASC 855 established standards of accounting for and disclosures of subsequent events which occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued.  ASC 855 requires the disclosure of the date through which the subsequent events have been evaluated as well as whether that date is the date the financial statement were issued or the date the financial statements were available to be issued.  This guidance is effective for periods ending after June 15, 2009. In February 2010, the FASB amended the subsequent events guidance issued in May 2009 to remove the requirement for SEC filers to disclose a date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in both issued and revised financial statements. The amendment is effective upon issuance. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“SFAS 167”) as codified in FASB ASC 810 Consolidation (“ASC 810”), which amends the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“SFAS 168”), as codified in FASB ASC 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“ASC 105”).  ASC 105 established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“the Codification”) as the sources for authoritative U.S. GAAP. The Codification will supersede all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards under U.S. GAAP for nongovernmental entities.  ASC 105 was effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.  The adoption of the Codification during the year ended December 31, 2009 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 Foreign Currency Translations

Substantially all Company assets are located in China.  The functional currency for the majority of the Company’s operations is the Renminbi (“RMB”).  The Company uses the United States dollar (“US Dollar” or “US$” or “$”) for financial reporting purposes.  The financial statements of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries have been translated into US dollars in accordance with SFAS No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation,” as codified in ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters.”   All asset and liability accounts have been translated using the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date.  Equity accounts have been translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transaction occurred.  Statements of operations amounts have been translated using the average exchange rate for the year.  Adjustments resulting from the translation of the Company’s financial statements are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income.

The exchange rates used to translate amounts in RMB into US dollars for the purposes of preparing the consolidated financial statements were as follows: 

   
February 28, 2010
 
November 30, 2009
Balance sheet items, except for the registered and paid-up capital, additional paid-in capital, statutory reserve and retained earnings, as of year end
 
US$1=RMB 6.8258
 
 
US$1=RMB 6.8265
 
   
  
   
Amounts included in the statements of operations, statements of changes in stockholders’ equity and statements of cash flows for the year
 
US$1=RMB 6.8276
 
 
US$1=RMB 6.8330
 

For the three months ended February 28, 2010, foreign currency translation adjustment of approximately $4,465 have been reported as accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity.

Although government regulations now allow convertibility of RMB for current account transactions, significant restrictions still remain.  Hence, such translations should not be construed as representations that RMB could be converted into US dollars at that rate or any other rate.

The value of RMB against the US dollars and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions.  Any significant revaluation of RMB may materially affect the Company’s financial condition in terms of US dollar reporting.

Cash and Cash equivalents

The Company considers all demand and time deposits and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable is stated at cost, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the failure of customers to make required payments.  The Company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes allowances where there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances.  In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, the customer’s payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. As of February 28, 2010 and November 30, 2009, the balances of allowance for doubtful accounts were $120,865 and $120,853, respectively. For the periods presented, the Company did not write off any accounts receivable as bad debts.

Inventories

Inventories consisted of coal and operating supplies. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost being determined on the first in, first out basis.  Provisions are made for excess, slow moving and obsolete inventory as well as inventory whose carrying value is in excess of market. The Company did not record any provisions for inventory valuation allowance for the three months ended February 28, 2010 and year ended November 30, 2009.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Cost include the prices paid to acquire or construct the assets, including capitalized interest during the construction period, and any expenditures that substantially increase the assets value or extend the useful life of an existing asset.  Depreciation is computed using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment, which are approximately five years for electrical and office equipment, ten years for transportation equipment and pipelines, and 20 to 45 years for buildings.  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of their estimated useful lives or the term of the lease.  Capitalized costs related to assets under construction are not depreciated until construction is complete and the asset is ready for its intended use.  Major repairs and betterments that significantly extend original useful lives or improve productivity are capitalized and depreciated over the period benefited. Maintenance and repairs are generally expensed as incurred.  When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations.

Costs of mine development, expansion of the capacity of or extending the life of the mine (“Mining Structures”) are capitalized and amortized using the units-of-production (“UOP”) method over the productive life of the mine based on proven and probable reserves.  Mining Structure includes the main and auxiliary mine shafts, underground tunnels, ramps, and other integrant mining infrastructure.

Investment Property

Investment property represents rental real estate purchased by the Company for investment purposes.  Depreciation is computed using the straight line method over the estimated useful life of 45 years.  The related rental income is included in non-operating income in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Mining Right

All land in China belongs to the government.  To extract resources from land, the Company is required to obtain a mining right.  The Company’s Coal Group acquired its mining right from the Provincial Bureau of National Land and Resource in November of 2005.  The price of the mining right, which represents the acquisition cost to the rights in the mine, was assessed by the Bureau to be $3,656,731.  The mine rights acquisition cost is payable in instalments over a six year period from the date the mining right was granted.  The mine rights acquisition cost is amortized using the UOP method over the productive life of the mine based on proven and probable reserves.

Restricted Cash

Long-term restricted cash represents the bank deposits placed as guarantee for the future payments of rehabilitation costs as required by the PRC government. The long-term deposits carry an interest rate of 0.6% per annum.

Advances from Customers

Advances from customers primarily consist of payments received from customers by the Coal Group and Heat Power prior to the delivery of goods and services.

Deferred Income

Deferred income represents reimbursements received by Heat Power from various real estate development companies for the cost of constructing pipelines to connect to rural areas being developed.  The income is recognized on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life of the pipelines of ten years.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

The Company applies SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (“SFAS 144”), as codified in FASB ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360”), which addresses the financial accounting and reporting for the recognition and measurement of impairment losses for long-lived assets. In accordance with ASC 360, long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The Company may recognize impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds the future undiscounted cash flows attributable to these assets. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss, if any, is recognized for the difference between the fair value of the asset and its carrying value. No impairment of long-lived assets was recognized for the three months ended February 28, 2010 and 2009.

Recognition of Revenue

Revenues from sales of products are recognized when the products are delivered and the title is transferred, the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, the price is fixed and determinable and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured.

Revenue associated with sales of coal is recognized when the title to the goods has been passed to customers, which is the date when the goods are delivered to designated locations and accepted by the customers.

Heat Power supplies heat to users directly and supplies electricity through a government controlled intermediary. Revenue from sales of heat and electricity represents the amount of tariffs billed for heat and electricity generated and transmitted to the users and government controlled intermediary, respectively.

Resource Compensation Fees

In accordance with the relevant regulations, a company that is engaged in coal production business is required to pay a fee to the Inner Mongolia National Land and Resources Administration Bureau as the compensation for the depletion of coal resources. Coal Group was required to pay resource compensation fee of $25,022 and $19,892 for the three months ended February 28, 2010 and 2009.

Environmental Costs

The PRC has adopted extensive environmental laws and regulations that affect the operations of the coal mining industry. The outcome of environmental liabilities under proposed or future environmental legislation cannot be reasonably estimated at present, and could be material. Under existing legislation, however, Company management believes that there are no probable liabilities that will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated balance sheets of the Company.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Financial instruments include accounts receivable, advances to suppliers and other receivables short term bank loans, accounts payable, advance from customers, accrued liabilities, other payables and shareholders’ loan. As of February 28, 2010 and November 30, 2009, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximated their fair values.

Income Taxes

Coal Group and Heat Power generate their income in China where Value Added Tax, Income Tax, City Construction and Development Tax and Education Surcharge taxes are applicable. The Company, Coal Group, and Heat Power do not conduct any operations in the U.S.; therefore, are not subject to U.S. taxes.

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” (“SFAS 109”), now codified as FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), which requires the recognition of deferred income taxes for differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax consequence for those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.  Deferred taxes are also recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income.  Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Use of Estimates


Net Income Per Share

The Company computes net income (loss) per common share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share (“SFAS 128”), as codified in FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share” (“ASC 260”) and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (“SAB 98”).  Under the provisions of ASC 260 and SAB 98, basic and diluted net income per common share are computed by dividing the amount available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Accordingly, the number of weighted average shares outstanding as well as the amount of net income per share are presented for basic and diluted per share calculations for all periods reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Statutory Reserves

Pursuant to corporate law of the PRC, the Company is required to maintain statutory reserves by appropriating from its after-tax profit before declaration or payment of dividends.  The statutory reserves, representing restricted retained earnings, consist of the following funds:

CHINA ENERGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTH PERIODS ENDED FEBRUARY 28, 2010 AND 2009
(UNAUDITED)
 
Surplus Reserve Fund: The Company is required to transfer 10% of its net income, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, to a statutory surplus reserve fund until such reserve balance reaches 50% of the Company’s registered capital.  The surplus reserve fund is non-distributable other than during liquidation and can be used to fund previous years’ losses, if any, and may be utilized for business expansion or converted into share capital by issuing new shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their shareholding or by increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the remaining reserve balance after such issue is not less than 25% of the registered capital.

Common Welfare Fund: Common welfare fund is a voluntary fund that the Company can elect to transfer 5% to 10% of its net income, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, to this fund.  This fund can only be utilized on capital items for the collective benefit of the Company’s employees, such as construction of dormitories, cafeteria facilities, and other staff welfare facilities. This fund is non-distributable other than upon liquidation.

Non-Surplus Reserve Fund (Safety and Maintenance): According to ruling No. 119 (2004) issued on May 21, 2004, and amended ruling No. 168 (2005) on April 8, 2005 by the PRC Ministry of Finance regarding Accrual and Utilization of Coal Production Safety Expense and Criterion on Coal Mine Maintenance and Improvement, the Company is required to set aside to a safety fund of RMB 6 per ton and RMB 10 per ton of raw coal mined for 2010 and 2009, respectively, and RMB 10.5 per ton for a maintenance fund.  As defined under US GAAP, a liability for safety and maintenance expenses does not exist at the balance sheet date because there is no present obligation to transfer assets or to provide services as a result of any past transactions. Therefore, for financial reporting purposes, this reserve has been recorded as an appropriation of retained earnings.

The statutory reserves consist of the following:

   
February 28,
2010
 
November 30,
2009
 
             
Surplus Reserve and Common Welfare fund
  $ 2,447,598     $ 2,447,598

Stock Options

Stock options are accounted for upon issuance at fair market value.  Such value is determined at the date a commitment is made for issuance.  The value of options is included in a separate part of stockholders’ equity.  Upon exercise or cancellation, the value of such options is transferred to paid-in capital.

Asset Retirement Cost and Obligation

The Company has adopted SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. (“SFAS 143”), now codified as FASB ASC 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations (“ASC 410”). ASC 410 generally requires that the Company’s legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets are recognized at fair value at the time the obligations are incurred. Obligations are incurred at the time development of a mine commences for underground mines or construction begins for support facilities, refuse areas and slurry ponds. The obligation’s fair value is determined using discounted cash flow techniques and is accreted over time to its expected settlement value. Upon initial recognition of a liability, a corresponding amount is capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset.  The related asset is amortized using the UOP method over the productive life of the mine based on proven and probable reserves.  The Company did not incur and does not anticipate incurring any material dismantlement, restoration and abandonment costs given the nature of its producing activities and the current PRC regulations surrounding such activities.

Vulnerability Due to Operations in PRC

The Company’s operations may be adversely affected by significant political, economic and social uncertainties in the PRC. Although the PRC government has been pursuing economic reform policies for more than twenty years, no assurance can be given that the PRC government will continue to pursue such policies or that such policies may not be significantly altered, especially in the event of a change in leadership, social or political disruption or unforeseen circumstances affecting the PRCs political, economic and social conditions. There is also no guarantee that the PRC government’s pursuit of economic reforms will be consistent or effective.

All of the Company’s businesses are transacted in RMB, which is not freely convertible. The People’s Bank of China or other banks are authorized to buy and sell foreign currencies at the exchange rates quoted by the Peoples Bank of China. Approval of foreign currency payments by the People’s Bank of China or other institutions requires submitting a payment application form together with suppliers’ invoices, shipping documents and signed contracts.

Since the Company has its primary operations in the PRC, the majority of its revenues will be settled in RMB, not US dollars. Due to certain restrictions on currency exchanges that exist in the PRC, the Company’s ability to use revenue generated in RMB to pay any dividend payments to its shareholders outside of China may be limited.

All of the Company’s bank accounts are in banks located in PRC and are not covered by protection similar to that provided by the FDIC on funds held in United States banks.

The Company’s mining operations are subject to extensive national and local governmental regulations in China, which regulations may be revised or expanded at any time.  Generally, compliance with these regulations requires the Company to obtain permits issued by government regulatory agencies.  Certain permits require periodic renewal or review of their conditions.  The Company cannot predict whether it will be able to obtain or renew such permits or whether material changes in permit conditions will be imposed. The inability to obtain or renew permits or the imposition of additional conditions could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to develop and operate its mines.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

3. Segment Reporting

The Company is made up of two segments of business, Coal Group which derives its revenue from the mining and purchase and sale of coal, and Heat Power which derives its revenue by providing heating and electricity to residents and businesses of a local community.  Each of these segments is conducted in a separate corporation and each functions independently of the other.

Except for the loans made to Heat Power by Coal Group in the principal amount of RMB 99 million (equivalent to $14.5 million) as of February 28, 2010, during the periods reported herein, there were no other transactions between the two segments.  There also were no differences between the measurements used to report operations of the segments and those used to report the consolidated operations of the Company.  In addition, there were no differences between the measurements of the assets of the reported segments and the assets reported on the consolidated balance sheets.

On a periodic basis, management reviews the other receivable balances and establishes allowances where there is doubt as to the collectability of the individual balances.  In evaluating collectability of the individual balances, the Company considers factors such as the age of the balance, payment history, and credit-worthiness of the creditor.   The Company considers all other receivables at February 28, 2010 and November 30, 2009 to be fully collectible and, therefore, did not provide for an allowance for doubtful accounts.

11. Fair Value Measurement

SFAS No. 157, as codified in FASB ASC 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based upon whether the inputs to those valuation techniques reflect assumptions other market participants would use based upon market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs).  In accordance with ASC 820, the following summarizes the fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 Inputs – Unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities in an active market that the Company has the ability to access.

Level 2 Inputs – Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 Inputs – Inputs based on prices or valuation techniques that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurements.

ASC 820 requires the use of observable market data, when available, in making fair value measurements.  When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value.  There have been no changes in the methodologies used at February 28, 2010.

Notes receivable:  Valued at the net realizable value which approximates the fair value.

The method described above may produce a fair calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future values.  Furthermore, while the Company believes its valuation method are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

The following table presents the Company’s assets and related valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value on a recurring basis as of February 28, 2010:

12. Government Subsidies

Government subsidies are primarily comprised of financial support provided by the local government to Heat Power to ensure supply of heat to the XueJiaWan area as the price for heat charged is regulated and approved by the government.  The financial support includes revenue subsidies to compensate for lower government regulated prices charged for heat and cost subsidies for purchase of coal used in providing heat.  Government subsidies are intended to be an incentive for Heat Power to supply heat at the government regulated prices.  Government subsidies amounted to zero and $153,024 for the three month periods ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and are included in government subsidies in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

The Company is required to file income tax returns in both the United States and China. Its operations in the United States have been insignificant and income taxes have not been accrued.  In China, the Company files tax returns for Heat Power and Coal Group and, although it is part of Coal Group, a separate tax return is required for the operations of the coal mine.  The laws of China permit the carryforward of net operating losses for a period of five years.  At February 28, 2010, the Chinese entities had net operating losses of $446,417 available for future use. If not used, these carryforwards will expire in 2013.

Under ASC 740, recognition of deferred tax assets is permitted unless it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized.  The Company has recorded deferred tax assets as follows:

   
February 28,
2010
   
November 30,

Deferred tax assets consist primarily of future tax benefits of net operating losses recognized for Heat Power.  A full valuation allowance has been established for the periods ended February 28, 2010 and November 30, 2009 since the Company is unable to determine if and when those benefits will be realized.

The following tables reconcile the effective income tax rate with the statutory rate for the periods ended February 28, 2010:

The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of SFAS 109.” (“FIN 48”), as codified in ASC 740.  ASC 740 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under ASC 740, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position would be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.  ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, and accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions.

The Company does not have any accruals for uncertain tax positions as of February 28, 2010.  It is not anticipated that unrecognized tax benefits would significantly increase or decrease within 12 months of the reporting date.

14. Contingency

As is customary in China, except for auto coverage, Coal Group and Heat Power do not carry sufficient insurance.  As a result the Company is effectively self-insuring risk of potential accidents that may occur in the workplace.  Given the nature of the industry, the Company may be exposed to risks that could have a material adverse impact on its consolidated financial statements.

China has enacted legislation which appears to restrict the ability of entities considered foreign to China, like the Company, to have ownership interest in operating companies located in China.  The Company has taken steps to avoid any potential adverse impact of this legislation.  (See Note 1).

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

History

On November 30, 2004, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Coal Group and Heat Power, both Chinese corporations, whereby we acquired all the issued and outstanding stock of Coal Group and 49% of the issued and outstanding stock of Heat Power in consideration of 45,000,000 shares of our common stock. The offers and sales of the shares were exempt from registration under Regulation S of the Securities Act as they were made to off-shore, non US residents.

The remaining 51% of the stock of Heat Power is owned by Coal Group. In September 2003, our President and majority shareholder, Mr. Ding, acquired a 70% interest in Heat Power. That interest was acquired through a contribution of property which is used by Heat Power in its operations. The property has been capitalized at the original cost to Mr. Ding. In February, 2004, Mr. Ding transferred his equity interest in Heat Power to Coal Group. In March 2004, Coal Group sold 15% of its interest to another shareholder. In August of 2004, a further 4% interest was sold to a shareholder with Coal Group owning the remaining 51% . As a result of the Share Exchange Agreement, Coal Group and the Company together now control 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Heat Power.

Coal Group and Heat Power thus became our controlled operating companies. The shareholders of both companies unanimously agreed to enter into the Share Exchange Agreement for the purposes of restructuring in anticipation of becoming listed on the OTC Bulletin Board. We were formed by the shareholders of Coal Group and Heat Power for this purpose and prior to entering into the Share Exchange Agreement; we had no assets, liabilities or equity and had not issued any of our shares. As a result of entering into the Share Exchange Agreement; the shareholders of Coal Group and Heat Power became our shareholders. The 45,000,000 shares issued to the shareholders of Coal Group and Heat Power were allocated based on the capital contributions or ownership of such shareholders. The Agreement therefore was a non-arms length transaction.

As a result of new PRC merger and acquisition regulations, the Company was required to undergo an application process to convert each of Coal Group and Heat Power from a domestic PRC company to a Foreign Invested Enterprise (“FIE”) pursuant to which a FIE business license would be obtained.  The regulations required the Company, as a foreign investor, to invest cash equity interest into both operating companies. Accordingly, the Company formulated a plan pursuant to which it would be able to raise the funds to become an FIE.  As part of this plan, on December 30, 2007, the Company acquired PPI, a Nevada company with no assets, liabilities or equity. The Company holds 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of PPI, or 5,000 common shares with a par value of $ 0.001.On December 31, 2007, PPI entered into a Trust Agreement with all the registered shareholders of Coal Group and Heat Power,  pursuant to which all the shareholders are obligated to hold their interests in Coal Group and Heat Power  (represented by their registered paid up capital contributions to date) in trust for PPI, for an eight year term, extendable for another five  years. In addition, prior to the execution of the PPI Trust Agreement, controlling shareholders of the Company, including Wenxiang Ding, Yanhua Li and members of their immediate family, transferred their shares of the Company to Georgia Pacific Investments Inc. (“GPI”) and Axim Holdings Ltd. (“Axim”).  to be held in trust with the view that GPI and Axim would sell the shares in the open market in order to fund a plan to convert Coal Group and Heat Power into FIEs to raise the mandated cash equity investment under PRC rules for  FIEs. The sole shareholder and director of each of GPI and Axim is Yi Ding, son of WenXiang Ding, our President and Chief Executive Officer. The Company has decided to forgo the FIE plan in favor of  An alternative structure involving the use of “variable interest entities” or VIEs to reduce any regulatory risks relating to the foreign ownership structure of the Company.
 
23


Pursuant to a VIE restructuring as contemplated by a framework contract entered in June 2009, a newly-formed subsidiary of the Company (“CEC China”), would enter into a series of contractual arrangements with the registered shareholders of the operating companies so that the control and the economic benefits and costs of ownership of the operating companies would flow directly to CEC China through a series of management and business cooperation agreements. CEC China would also have the option to purchase the equity interests in Coal Group and Heat Power held by the registered shareholders. The registered shareholders would pledge their equity interests in Coal Group and Heat Power as security for their agreement to comply with provisions of the management and cooperation agreements and would provide CEC China with a power of attorney to exercise all their shareholder rights in Coal Group and Heat Power. The contractual arrangements under the VIE structure are intended to comply with, and be enforceable under, applicable PRC law, and would adequately reduce any PRC regulatory risk without the capital contributions necessary under the FIE plan initially proposed by the Company. In connection with the planned VIE restructuring, the Company and the registered shareholders have entered into a framework contract in July 2009 pursuant to which the Company and the registered shareholders have agreed to enter into the aforementioned agreements.

Operating Companies

Coal Group

Coal Group, organized in China on August 8, 2000, produces coal from the LaiYeGou coal mine located in Erdos City, Inner Mongolia, PRC.  Since the acquisition of LaiYeGou in 1999, Coal Group’s principal activities consist of the production of “powered” coal and “lump” coal from raw coal and the sale of products to heating and power industries, distributors and coking factories for steel production.  Coal Group also buys, sells, and transports coal, as part of its proprietary coal trading activities.

Heat Power

Heat Power has two distinct operations servicing customers in the XueJiaWan district in Ordos City, Inner Mongolia.  Heat Power supplies (i) steam heating and (ii) electricity to end users.  In 2003, Heat Power was granted a license to supply heating to the entire XueJiaWan district. In order to have sufficient heating supply, in 2004 Heat Power began construction on a thermoelectric plant which was completed in September 2006. In conjunction with the thermoelectric plant, Heat Power also owns and operates 32 heat transfer stations.

Heat Power is a regulated utility company and it meets the current regulatory requirements applicable to such companies.  Heat Power supplies electricity to its customers through a government controlled intermediary, Inner Mongolia Electric Power Group Co., Ltd. (“Electric Power Group”).  Electric Power Group is also subject to regulated utility company rules and regulations consisting of compliance with safety and environmental standards. In addition, the prices charged by the Company are approved by the local government. The government reviews the price of heating and electricity from time to time as market conditions change. We purchase coal from suppliers to fuel our boilers at market prices; therefore, we bear the risk that market prices for raw materials exceed the regulated prices paid by end users.  We receive governmental subsidies from time to time to offset this risk.
 
24


Heat Power obtains its supply of powdered coal required to generate heat production principally from Zhunger County Guanbanwusu Coalmine (“Guanbanwusu”), an unrelated third party vendor. It also obtains coal from various other coal mines in the area. We do not supply Heat Power with coal for fuel.

In the XueJiaWan area, hardly anyone owns a domestic heating boiler.  Water is first heated in the Company’s thermoelectric plant by the high-temperature steam used for generating electricity, and then piped directly to homes and public buildings, including private dwellings, factories as well as municipal facilities, and lastly the water is piped back to the thermoelectric plant to repeat the process.

Results of operations – Three Months Ended February 28, 2010

Revenues
 
The following is an analysis of our revenues and gross profit, details and analysis of components of expenses, and variance; for the three months ended February 28, 2010 compared to February 28, 2009.

Coal Group
 
For the three months ended February 28, 2010, revenues for Coal Group were $16,247,966 compared to $1,529,883 in the comparable three months in 2009. The $14,718,083 increase was due to the fact that the production at LaiYeGou coal mine was partially shut down for the installation of the long wall automatic mining equipments and normal production resumed in the third quarter in 2009 with the completion of the installment and adjustment of the equipment.  The increase of the volume of proprietary trading of coal also contributed to the increase of revenue from Coal Group as compared to the prior comparable quarter in 2009. Coal Group produced approximately 156,000 metric tons of coal during the three months ended February 28, 2010. Coal Group’s business is seasonal in that sales are low in the first quarter of a year relative to the other three quarters due to the Chinese New Year holiday. During this time our business is closed for about two weeks.
 
Heat Power
 
For the three months ended February 28, 2010, revenues for Heat Power were $4,520,910 compared to $3,485,063 in the comparable three months in 2009.

For the three months ended February 28, 2010, revenues generated by Heat Power from its heating supply operations were $3,532,836 compared to $2,573,417 in the comparable three month period in 2009. The $959,419 increase was due to the increase of heating area to 2.7 million square meters in the first quarter this year from 2.1 million square meters in the same period last year.  The heating area increased due to the continued development of the XueJiaWan area.  We are expecting this trend to continue for at least through the end of this fiscal year.  Our revenue during the first quarter from our heating supply operations were as follows:

Cost of Sales

For the three months ended February 28, 2010, cost of sales increased by approximately $9,100,000 from the comparable three months in 2009, as a result of changes in the following expenses:

For the three months ended February 28, 2010 our gross margin was 33% compared with 7% in the 2009 comparable three month period. The increase reflected the fact that the production at LaiYeGou coal mine was partially shut down due to the installation of the new mining equipments, and normal production resumed in the third quarter of last year with the completion of the installation and adjustment of the equipment. Under normal production conditions, Coal Group has higher gross margins than Heat Power, and it also contributes more to the total gross profit of the Company. Gross margin from Heat Power  also increased because of the expanded heating area.

Utilities, operating supplies and repairs expenses are expected to increase in line with revenue.
 
Selling Expenses

For the three months ended February 28, 2010, selling expenses increased by approximately $798,080 compared to the same period in 2009.  Selling expenses are expected to increase in line with revenue.

Office. The increase was attributed to purchasing of office consumables after renovation of office building in Laiyegou coal mine in 2009.

Professional and other fees. Professional fees were paid principally to various professionals including financial advisors, attorneys and accountants. These expenses significantly increased in the quarter ended February 28, 2010 because the Company decided to change many of its advisors, requiring that the new advisors spend time and resources studying and familiarizing themselves with us and our history in an effort to contribute to our strategic plan going forward.

Salaries and wages. Salaries and wages increased due to various factors including purchase of safety and personal care items for coal mine management and labours, increase of salary rate and number of employees and etc.

Travel. The increase of travel expenses increased due to the work of our advisors.

Finance Expenses

For the three months ended February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009, finance expenses amounted to $215,349, and $95,388, respectively. The interest expense increased due to the increased loan principal obtained by the Company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of February 28, 2010 we had a working capital deficit of approximately $15,000,000.  We anticipate that the combination of our sales and collection of accounts receivables, customer deposits and proceeds from bank and shareholder loans will generate sufficient cash flow to sustain our working capital needs. However we may require other sources of capital.

We do not know of any trends, events or uncertainties that are likely to have a material impact on our short-term or long-term liquidity other than those factors discussed below.

Sources of Capital

If additional capital is needed, we will explore financing options such as shareholder loans. Shareholders loans are granted from time to time as required to meet current working capital needs. We have no formal agreement that ensures that we will receive such loans. We may exhaust this source of funding at any time.  Shareholder loans are payable on demand and interest is calculated at the range from zero to 3.155% per annum.

Coal Group obtained loans from the Agricultural Bank of China equalling 60 million RMB or $8,790,178 to assist in funding working capital needs. In addition, Coal Group has unutilized bank credit facilities of $5.9 million as at February 28, 2010.

We may also receive capital contributions from our shareholders.

Accounts receivable. The increase in accounts receivables are mainly attributable to an increase in Heat Power’s user fees made on account and not from an extension of time for accounts receivable from prior periods.

Advances to suppliers. Advances increased as a result of advances made to suppliers of materials required for the Heat Power expansion and advance for purchase of coal and freight from third party suppliers. Prepayment is also a common business practice in China as it allows for a determined price and in some instances will grant us discounts on purchases.

Advances from customers. Advances on sales of coal represent the majority of customer advances received and it is a normal business practice that ensures that the customer obtains Coal Group’s products at the market price determined on the date of purchase. Coal Group’s advances decreased during the first quarter of 2010 as a result of less outstanding orders as of the last day of the quarter.  The level of advances fluctuates depending upon the level of rapidity with which Coal Group customers take delivery of their goods at any given time.  Customer advances received from Heat Power’s users increased as we continued to lay pipeline for that business segment in connection with the development of the XueJiaWan area.

Inventory. Inventory mainly consists of coal for trading purposes. The balance of coal inventory decreased during the first quarter of 2010 as a result of less outstanding orders at the cut off time. As advances decrease, inventory is reduced because pre-paid customers take formal delivery of the goods, thereby allowing the Company to accrue revenue and decrease inventory to reflect the goods delivered.

Accounts payable. The majority of accounts payable were for Heat Power’s purchase of raw materials for production and constructions, and for Coal Group’s purchase of coal from third party suppliers for trading. Accounts payable also includes fees payable to government related to mining, and the decrease of the accounts payable of the first quarter of 2010 is because we partially paid off the fees.

Other payables. These amounts consist of accruals made for freight, repairs and maintenance of heating plants, labour union fees, social insurance, technical training for our employees and etc.

Our cash flows provided by investing activities were $740,860 for the three months ended February 28, 2010 and cash flows consumed by investing activities were $525,767 for the three months ended February 28, 2009.
