Corporate information and description of business

Wonder Auto Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 8, 2000.  The Company’s shares are quoted for trading on the Nasdaq Global Market in the United States.

The Company is principally engaged in the design, development, manufacture and marketing of automotive electrical parts, specifically starters and alternators and manufacturing of engine valves and tappets for motor vehicles mainly in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). The major target markets of the Company’s products are the PRC, South Korea and Brazil.

The products of the Company are suitable for use in a variety of automobiles.  However, most of the Company’s products are used in passenger cars with smaller engines having displacement below 1.6 liters.  The Company has also begun to manufacture and sell rectifier and regulator products for use in alternators as well as various rods and shafts for use in shock absorbers, alternators and starters.

The Company’s customers include automakers, engine manufacturers and, increasingly, auto parts suppliers.  The Company also offers to its customers’ product design and development services for their new car models or automotive components based on customers’ specifications.

The raw materials used in the Company’s production are mainly divided into four categories, metal parts, semiconductors, chemicals and packaging materials.

(“Jinzhou Halla”) entered into an equity transfer agreement (the “Equity Transfer Agreement”) with Magic Era Group Limited (“Magic Era”), a British Virgin Islands corporation, pursuant to which Jinzhou Halla agreed to acquire the 35% remaining equity interest in Yearcity Limited (“Yearcity”) at a consideration RMB48 million (equivalent to $7.04 million) (“Yearcity Consideration”), which will be settled by May 31, 2009.

Acquisition (Cont’d)

During 2008, the Company disposed of an unconsolidated affiliate, Money Victory Limited (“Money Victory”), to Golden Stone Capital Limited (“Golden Stone”) at a cash consideration of $5.95 million (“Money Victory Consideration”) which was still outstanding and included in other receivables as of December 31, 2008.  On January 4, 2009, Wonder Auto Limited, Jinzhou Hall, Magic Era and Golden Stone entered into a debt transfer agreement agreed that a partial Yearcity Consideration amounted to $5.95 million was settled by offsetting with Money Victory Consideration. In accordance with SFAS No.160, the acquisition of noncontrolling interest in Yearcity was accounted for as equity transaction. The carrying amount of the noncontrolling interest in Yearcity was adjusted to reflect the change in the Company’s equity interest in Yearcity. The difference between the fair value of the consideration paid or payable and the amount by which the noncontrolling interest of Yearcity adjusted was recognized in equity attributable to the Company.

The below schedule illustrates the effects of changes in the Company’s equity interest in Yearcity on the Company’s equity:

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X.  Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted from these statements pursuant to such rules and regulation and, accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes necessary for comprehensive consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2008, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

In the opinion of the management of the Company, all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the three-month periods have been made.  Results for the interim period presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for the entire fiscal year.

In accordance with FASB Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, the noncontrolling interest is presented within stockholders’ equity. Certain 2008 amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2009 presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on net earnings or stockholders’ equity as previously reported.

Summary of significant accounting policies

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries.  All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Concentrations of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade and bills receivables.  As of March 31, 2009, substantially all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were held by major financial institutions located in the PRC, which management believes are of high credit quality.  With respect to trade and bills receivables, the Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition.  The Company generally does not require collateral for trade receivables and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts of trade receivables.

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157 (“SFAS”) on January 1, 2008. The adoption of SFAS 157 did not materially impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

SFAS No. 107 “Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (“SFAS 107”) requires the disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial instruments including those financial instruments for which the SFAS No. 159 fair value option was not elected. Except for secured borrowings disclosed as below, the carrying amounts of other financial assets and liabilities approximate to their fair value due to short maturities:

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In May 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No.162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”.  Effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.  The Board does not expect that this Statement will result in a change in current practice. However, transition provisions have been provided in the unusual circumstance that the application of the provisions of this Statement results in a change in practice.  The adoption of this statement has no material effect on the Company's 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 establishes accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. The guidance will become effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of this statement has no material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised) “Business Combinations”. SFAS No. 141 (Revised) establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. The statement also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. The guidance will become effective for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of this statement has no material effect on the Company's financial statements.

In April 2009, the FASB issued three FASB Staff Positions (FSP’s) to provide additional application guidance and enhance disclosures regarding fair value measurements and impairments of securities. FSP FAS 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,” provides guidelines for making fair value measurements more consistent with the principles presented in SFAS No.157. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” enhances consistency in financial reporting by increasing the frequency of fair value disclosures. FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments,” provides additional guidance designed to create greater clarity and consistency in accounting for and presenting impairment losses on securities. These three FSP’s are effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. We adopted the provisions of these FSP’s for the period ending March 31, 2009. The management is in the process of evaluating the impact these FSP’s will have on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

Income taxes (Cont’d)

PRC

Corporate income tax (“CIT”) to Jinzhou Halla, Jinzhou Dongwoo, Jinzhou Wanyou, Jinzhou Hanhua, Jinzhou Karham, Fuxin Huirui and Jinan Worldwide in the PRC was charged at 27%, of which 24% is for national tax and 3% is for local tax, of the assessable profits before 2008.  The PRC’s legislative body, the National People’s Congress, adopted the unified CIT Law on March 16, 2007.  This new tax law replaces the existing separate income tax laws for domestic enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises and became effective on January 1, 2008.  Under the new tax law, a unified income tax rates is set at 25% for both domestic enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises.  However, there will be a transition period for enterprises, whether foreign-invested or domestic, that are currently receiving preferential tax treatments granted by relevant tax authorities.  Enterprises that are subject to an enterprise income tax rate lower than 25% may continue to enjoy the lower rate and will transit into the new tax rate over a five year period beginning on the effective date of the CIT Law.  Enterprises that are currently entitled to exemptions for a fixed term will continue to enjoy such treatment until the exemption term expires.  Preferential tax treatment will continue to be granted to industries and projects that qualify for such preferential treatments under the new tax law.  As approved by the relevant tax authority in the PRC, Jinzhou Halla, Jinzhou Dongwoo, Jinzhou Wanyou, Jinzhou Hanhua, Jinzhou Karham, Fuxin Huirui and Jinan Worldwide were entitled to two years’ exemption from the first profit making calendar year of operations after offset of accumulated taxable losses, followed by a 50% tax reduction for the immediate next three calendar years (“tax holiday”).  The tax holiday of Jinzhou Halla commenced in the fiscal financial year of 2001.  Accordingly, Jinzhou Halla was subject to tax rate of 13.5% for 2003, 2004 and 2005.  Furthermore, Jinzhou Halla, being a Foreign Investment Enterprise (“FIE”), engaged in an advanced technology industry, was approved to enjoy a further three years’ 50% tax reduction for 2006, 2007 and 2008, the reduction has been further extended for 2009 and 2010. The tax holiday of Jinzhou Dongwoo commenced in the fiscal year 2004.  Accordingly, Jinzhou Dongwoo was subject to tax rate of 13.5% for 2006 and 2007, and the Company expects it will be subject to a tax rate of 12.5% for 2008 and 25% for 2009.  Jinzhou Wanyou has elected to commence the tax holiday in the fiscal year 2007.  Accordingly, Jinzhou Wanyou will be exempted from CIT for 2007 and 2008 and thereafter entitled to a 50% reduction on CIT tax rate to 12.5% for 2009, 2010 and 2011.  The tax holiday of Jinzhou Hanhua commenced in the fiscal year 2005.  Accordingly, Jinzhou Hanhua was subject to tax rate of 13.5% for 2007, and we expect it will be subject to a tax rate of 12.5% for 2008 and 2009.  Jinzhou Karham has elected to commence the tax holiday in the fiscal year 2008.  Accordingly, Jinzhou Karham will be exempted from CIT for 2008 and 2009 and thereafter entitled to a 50% reduction on CIT tax rate 12.5% for 2010, 2011 and 2012.  The tax holiday of Fuxin Huirui commenced in the fiscal year 2008.  Accordingly, Fuxin Huirui will be exempted from CIT for 2008 and 2009 and thereafter entitled to a 50% reduction on CIT tax rate 12.5% for 2010, 2011 and 2012.  The tax holiday of Jinan Wolrdwide commenced in the fiscal year of 2006.  Accordingly, Jinan Worldwide was subject to tax rate of 12.5% for 2008, 2009 and 2010.  Wonder Motor and Jinzhou Wonder is subject to a rate of 25%.

OVERVIEW 

Wonder Auto Technology, Inc. is a Nevada holding company whose China-based operating subsidiaries, Jinzhou Halla, Jinzhou Dongwoo, Jinzhou Wanyou, Jinzhou Hanhua , Jinzhou Karham and Jinan Worldwide are primarily engaged in business of designing, developing, manufacturing and selling automotive electrical parts, specifically alternators and starters, engine valves, tappets, rods and shafts in China.  We have been producing alternators and starters in China since 1997 and our newly acquired subsidiary Jinan Worldwide has been producing engine valves and tappets for over 50 years.  According to a report issued by the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM), we ranked second in sales revenue in China in the market for automobile alternators and starters in 2008, 2007 and 2006.

Our products are mainly used in passenger cars and commercial vehicles and sold to original equipment manufacturers in China.  We offer over 230 different models of alternators and approximately 150 different models of starters.  In addition, we have begun to manufacture and sell rectifier and regulator products for use in alternators as well as various rods and shafts for use in shock absorbers, alternators and starters.  As a result of our acquisition of Jinan Worldwide, we have become one of the largest engine valves and tappets manufacturers in China.
 
 
21

 

We sell our products to automakers, engine manufacturers and, increasingly, auto parts suppliers, based primarily in China, and we are increasingly exporting our products to the international market.

On January 4, 2009, our indirect wholly owned subsidiary Jinzhou Halla entered into an equity transfer agreement with Magic Era Group Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation (“Magic Era”), under which Jinzhou Halla agreed to purchase the remaining 35% equity interest in Yearcity Limited (“Yearcity”) for total cash consideration of RMB 48 million (approximately $7.04 million), subject to certain price adjustments.  Yearcity does not have any asset except its 100% equity ownership of Jinan Worldwide.  Jinan Worldwide is a Chinese corporation engaged in the manufacturing of engine valves and tappets.  Prior to our acquisition of the remaining 35% equity interest in Yearcity, Jinzhou Halla already owned 65% equity interest of Yearcity from Hony Capital II, L.P., a Cayman Islands corporation, in a separately negotiated equity purchase transaction.  As a result of these two acquisitions, we now have 100% ownership of Yearcity and 100% indirect ownership of Jinan Worldwide.  Please see our current report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange (the “SEC”) on January 8, 2009 for more details.

Recent Developments

On April 7, 2009, our former directors, Messrs. David Murphy and Xingye Zhang resigned from the Board of Directors of the Company.  Each of Mr. Murphy and Mr. Zhang was a member of the Company’s Audit, Compensation and Governance and Nominating Committees.  Mr. Murphy was the Chair of the Compensation Committee and Mr. Zhang was the Chair of the Governance and Nominating Committee.  On the same day, the Board of Directors of the Company appointed Mr. Xiaoyu Zhang and Mr. Xianzhang Wang as directors of the Company to fill the vacancies created by such resignations.  Mr. Xiaoyu Zhang and Mr. Wang each qualifies as an “independent director” as defined by Rule 4200(a)(15) of the Marketplace Rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc.  In addition, each of Messrs.

First Quarter Financial Performance Highlights

Despite the overall economic slowdown in the global economy, we continued to experience strong demand for our products during the first fiscal quarter of 2009, which resulted in continued growth in our sales revenue and net income. The automobile market in China, especially the market for small engine automobiles, continued to expand in the first quarter of 2009 due, in part, to the implementation of new PRC consumption tax regulations and the promulgation of new regulations which urge government agencies to use tax breaks and preferential oil-pricing policies to encourage consumers to buy low-emission automobiles. We were able to capitalize on this growth trend during the first fiscal quarter of 2009.

The following are some financial highlights for the first quarter of 2009:

Sales Revenue: Sales revenue increased approximately $8.9 million, or 28.5%, to approximately $40.0 million for the first quarter of 2009 from approximately $31.1 million for the same period last year.

Gross Margin: Gross margin was 25.3% for the first quarter of 2009, as compared to 26.3% for the same period in 2008.

Net Income attributable to the Company: Net income attributable to the Company increased approximately $1.2 million, or 29.8%, to approximately $5.2 million for the first quarter of 2009 from approximately $4.0 million for the same period of last year.

Fully diluted net income per share: Fully diluted net income per share was $0.19 for the first quarter of 2009, as compared to $0.15 for the same period last year.

Sales Revenue. Our sales revenue is generated from sales of our alternator and starter products, rods and shafts, and engine valves and tappets. Sales revenue increased by approximately $8.9 million, or 28.5%, to approximately $40.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared with $31.1 million of the same period last year.  This increase was mainly attributable to the sales of our valve and tappet products manufactured by our new subsidiary Jinan Worldwide, which contributed approximately $7.3 million in this quarter.

Sales revenue from China increased by approximately $10.9 million, or 41.9%, to approximately $37.0 million in the first quarter of 2009, compared with approximately $26.1 million for the same period last year. The organic revenue increase from China was $4.0 million, or 15.4%, to $30.1 million for the first quarter of 2009, compare with $ 26.1 million for the same period last year.

Cost of Sales. Our cost of sales is primarily comprised of the costs of our raw materials, labor and overhead. Our cost of sales increased by approximately $6.9 million, or 30.2%, to approximately $29.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from approximately $22.9 million during the same period in 2008.  This increase was mainly due to the increase of our sales volume. As a percentage of sales revenue, the cost of sales increased approximately 1.0% to 74.7 % during the three months ended March 31, 2009 from 73.7 % for the same period of 2008. The percentage increase in the first quarter of 2009 was due to the fact that a larger portion of our total sales revenue was generated from alternators and starters with mid-to-small displacement as compared to the same period of 2008.  Our alternators and starters with small displacement generally have a lower margin than our alternators and starters with large displacement.
 
Gross Profit. Our gross profit is equal to the difference between our sales revenue and our cost of sales. Our gross profit increased by approximately $1.9 million, or 23.5 %, to approximately $10.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared with approximately $8.2 million for the same period in 2008 as a result of increased demand for and sales of our alternators and starters, rods and shafts,  and engine valve and tappet products.  Gross margin was 25.3 % for the three-month period ended March 31, 2009, as compared to 26.3 % of the same period in 2008.  Such decrease was mainly due to the increase of cost of sales on a percentage basis as discussed above.
 
Total Operating Expenses. Our total operating expenses increased by approximately $1.6 million, or 64.4 %, to approximately $ 4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared with approximately $2.4 million for the same period in 2008. As a percentage of sales revenue, our total expenses increased to 10.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared from 7.8% for the same period in 2008. The percentage increase was primarily attributable to the increase of administrative expenses, selling expenses and research and development expenses as discussed below.
 
25

 
Administrative Expenses. Administrative expenses consist of the costs associated with staff and support personnel who manage our business activities and professional fees paid to third parties. Our administrative expenses increased $977,619, or 73.0 %, to approximately $2.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009, from approximately $1.3 million for the same period in 2008. As a percentage of sales revenue, administrative expenses increased to 5.8 % for the three months ended March 31, 2009, as compared to 4.3 % for the same period in 2008. The increase was primarily due to the consolidation of the financial results of Yearcity and the increased professional expenses related to the acquisition of Yearcity. We acquired 100% equity interest in Yearcity, the addition of Yearcity increased our administrative costs.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses consist of amounts spent on developing new products and enhancing our existing products. Our research and development costs increased $78,675, or 20.8 %, to $456,232 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $377,557 for the same period in 2008. As a percentage of sales revenue, research and development costs decreased to1.1 % from 1.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The Company expects to increase the amount of investments in research and development as revenues increase and will maintain the ratio of research and development costs to total sales revenue at approximately 1.0 %.

Selling Expenses. Selling expenses include sales commissions, the cost of advertising and promotional materials, salaries and fringe benefits of sales personnel, after-sale support services and other sales related costs. Our selling expenses increased $504,802, or 71.3% to approximately $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $707,857 for the same period in 2008. As a percentage of sales revenue, our selling expenses were3.0 % for the three months ended March 31, 2009, which was 2.3 % in the first quarter last year. The increase in the amount and percentage of selling expenses was mainly attributable to the consolidation, the addition of our new subsidiary, Yearcity increased our selling expenses.

Net finance cost. Net finance cost includes interest income, interest expenses, bill discounting charges and net exchange (gain) loss. Our net finance cost decreased $869,713, or 91.2% to $83,989 for the three months ended on March 31, 2009 from $953,702 for the same period last year. The decrease of net finance cost was mainly due to the exchange gain of $ 762,035 resulted from the EUR8.3 million loan from DEG bank.

Income before Income Taxes and Noncontrolling Interests. Income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests increased by approximately $1.4 million or 28.9 %, to approximately $6.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2009 from approximately $4.9 million during the same period in 2008.  Income before income taxes as a percentage of sales revenue increased to 15.8 % during the three months ended March 31, 2009, as compared to 15.7% for the same period last year due to the factors described above.
 
26

 
Income taxes. Our income taxes increased by $489,188, or 113.5%, to $920,005 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $430,817 for the same period last year. Our effective income tax rate was approximately 14.6% for the first quarter in 2009, as compared to 8.8% for the same period last year.

Net Income attributable to Noncontrolling Interests. Our financial statements reflect an adjustment to our consolidated group net income, and our net income attributable to noncontrolling interests decreased $260,310, or 53.8% to $ 223,435 for the first quarter in 2009 from $ 483,745 for the same period in 2008, reflecting the net income attributable to noncontrolling interests held by third parties in Jinzhou Dong Woo, Jinzhou Hanhua and Jinzhou Karham.

Net Income attributable to Wonder Auto Technology, Inc. common stockholders. Our net income attributable to Wonder Auto Technology, Inc. common stockholders increased by approximately $ 1.2 million, or 29.8%, to approximately $ 5.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2009 from approximately $ 4.0 million during the same period in 2008, as a result of the factors described above.

* The loans are denominated in RMB, we used the exchange rate of $1 = RMB6.8259
 
* The loans are denominated in Euro, we used the exchange rate of 1 Euro = RMB9.0323
 
We repaid four bank loans in the total amount of approximately $10.7 million in the first quarter of 2009.  In the coming three months, we have approximately $26.6 million in bank loans that will mature, and we have made repayments of $13.7 million ended March 31, 2009. We plan to replace these loans with new bank loans in approximately the same aggregate amounts. We believe that we maintain good relationships with the banks we deal with and our current available working capital, after receiving the aggregate proceeds of the capital raising activities and bank loans referenced above, should be adequate to sustain our operations at our current levels through at least the next twelve months.

Critical Accounting Policies 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.  The SEC has defined a company’s critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of the company’s financial condition and results of operations, and which require the company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain.  We believe that our most critical accounting policies and estimates relate to the following:

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries.  All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.  These accounts and estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivable, inventories, deferred income taxes, provision for warranty and the estimation on useful lives of property, plant and equipment.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s assessment of the collectibility of trade receivables.  A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the amount of the allowance, the Company considers the historical level of credit losses and applies percentages to aged receivable categories.  The Company makes judgments about the creditworthiness of each customer based on ongoing credit evaluations, and monitors current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future.  If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a larger allowance may be required.

Based on the above assessment, during the reporting years, the management establishes the general provisioning policy to make allowance equivalent to 100% of gross amount of trade receivables due over 1 year. Additional specific provision is made against trade receivables aged less than 1 year to the extent which they are considered to be doubtful.
Bad debts are written off when identified.  The Company extends unsecured credit to customers ranging from three to six months in the normal course of business.  The Company does not accrue interest on trade accounts receivable.

Historically, losses from uncollectible accounts have not significantly deviated from the general allowance estimated by the management and no significant additional bad debts have been written off directly to the profit and loss.  This general provisioning policy has not changed in the past since establishment and the management considers that the aforementioned general provisioning policy is adequate and not too excessive and does not expect to change this established policy in the near future.

Deferred revenue - government grants

Receipts of government grants to encourage research and development activities, which are non-refundable, are credited to deferred income upon receipt. The Company received certain government grants for the purchase of property, plant and equipment since 2004.  Such subsidy was recorded as deferred revenue and was amortized as income over the useful lives of the relevant property, plant and equipment.

Revenue recognition

Revenue from sales of the Company’s products is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer at the time when the products are put into use by its customers, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements  
 
We do not have any off-balance arrangements.

Seasonality 

Our operating results and operating cash flows historically have not been subject to seasonal variations. This pattern may change, however, as a result of new market opportunities or new product introduction. 
 
ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily with respect to our short-term bank loans and long-term bank loans. Although the interest rates, which are based on the banks’ prime rates with respect to our short-term loans are fixed for the terms of the loans, the terms are typically three to twelve months for short-term bank loans and interest rates are subject to change upon renewal.  There were no material changes in interest rates for short-term bank loans renewed during the three months ended March 31, 2009.

A hypothetical 1.0% increase in the annual interest rates for all of our credit facilities under which we had outstanding borrowings at March 31, 2009, would decrease net income before provision for income taxes by approximately $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009.  Management monitors the banks’ prime rates in conjunction with our cash requirements to determine the appropriate level of debt balances relative to other sources of funds.  We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to interest rate risk.

Foreign Exchange Risk
 
While our reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar, all of our consolidated revenues and consolidated costs and expenses are denominated in Renminbi.  All of our assets are denominated in RMB except for cash.  As a result, we are exposed to foreign exchange risk as our revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between U.S. Dollars and RMB.  If the RMB depreciates against the U.S. Dollar, the value of our RMB revenues, earnings and assets as expressed in our U.S. Dollar financial statements will decline.  Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates and shareholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates.  Any resulting translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are included in determining other comprehensive income, a component of shareholders’ equity.  An average appreciation (depreciation) of the RMB against the U.S. dollar of 5% would increase (decrease) our comprehensive income by $5.7 million based on our outstanding revenues, costs and expenses, assets, and liabilities denominated in RMB as of March 31, 2009.  We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign exchange risk.
 
The value of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar and other currencies is affected by, among other things, changes in China’s political and economic conditions. Since July 2005, the Renminbi has not been pegged to the U.S. dollar. Although the People’s Bank of China regularly intervenes in the foreign exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange rate, the Renminbi may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar in the medium to long term.  Moreover, it is possible that in the future, PRC authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in the Renminbi exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market.
 
Inflation

Inflationary factors such as increases in the cost of our product and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results.  Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues if the selling prices of our products do not increase with these increased costs.

ITEMS 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined by regulations of the SEC, means controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit to the SEC under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit to the SEC under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions to be made regarding required disclosure. Each of Qingjie Zhao, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Meirong Yuan, our Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the design and operating effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2009. Based upon their evaluation, these executive officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of March 31, 2009.  

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There has been no change to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
