SUMMARY
 
The following summary is not complete and does not contain all of the information that may be important to you. You should read the entire prospectus before making an investment decision to purchase our common stock.
 
General

We are a holding company formed in the state of Delaware. Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Sound Worldwide Limited, or SWL, a British Virgins Island corporation, and its two subsidiaries, we manufacture and sell denim fabrics and garments from our facilities in Hong Kong and China. SWL’s two subsidiaries are Asian Point Investment Limited, or Asian Point, and Best Allied Industrial Limited, or Best Allied.

SWL is a garment contractor for a number of well known brands such as GAP, Levis, ECKO, and Giordano. Our products are sold to customers worldwide, with over 50% exported to the U.S. marketplace and the rest throughout Western Europe and other countries.

Organizational History

On October 25, 2007, we merged with a reporting shell company, Freedom 3, Inc., or Freedom, a Delaware corporation. On such date, Freedom redeemed 100,000 shares of its common stock, which was all of its issued and outstanding common stock, from its then current stockholder in exchange for 300,000 shares of restricted common stock of the resultant issuer after the merger as per the redemption agreement. Freedom then sold one share of its common stock to SWL for $1.00. This resulted in SWL owning 100% of Freedom. SWL and Freedom then entered into a Share Exchange Agreement or the Exchange Agreement, dated October 25, 2007, pursuant to which each share of common stock and preferred stock of SWL was converted into 350 shares of Freedom’s common stock and one share of Freedom’s preferred stock, respectively and all of the issued and outstanding shares of SWL’s common stock were retired and cancelled. This resulted in the stockholders of SWL to become stockholders of Freedom. The previous stockholder of Freedom was then issued 300,000 shares of Freedom as agreed previously. The one share of Freedom’s common stock held by SWL was then cancelled and SWL sold one share of its common stock to Freedom, which resulted in Freedom owning 100% of SWL. Freedom then changed its name to Sound Worldwide Holdings, Inc.

Prior the exchange, Freedom was a shell company with no operations and nominal assets.

Business Objectives

Our business objective is to become a cost-effective denim fabric and garment manufacturer with high quality, competitive prices and a comprehensive product range. We eventually want to expand our market share through advanced production technology, effective cost controls, superior quality control systems, and marketing efforts.

RISK FACTORS
 
An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. In addition to the other information in this prospectus, you should carefully consider the following factors in evaluating us and our business before purchasing the shares of common stock offered hereby. This prospectus contains, in addition to historical information, forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below, as well as those discussed elsewhere in this prospectus, including the documents incorporated by reference.
 
Risks Relating to Our Company

We have a limited operating history which may not be an indicator of our future results.

As a result of our limited operating history, our plan for rapid growth, and the increasingly competitive nature of the markets in which we operate, our historical financial data is of limited use in evaluating our future revenue and operating expenses. Our planned expense levels will be based in part on expectations concerning future revenue, which is difficult to forecast accurately based on current plans of expansion and growth. We may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected shortfall in revenue. Further, general and administrative expenses may increase significantly as we expand operations. To the extent that these expenses are incurred before, or are not rapidly followed by, a corresponding increase in revenue, our business, operating results, and financial condition could suffer.

Our success is dependent on the success, strategies and reputation of our customers.

Our business is dependent on our customers’ ability to market their brands through multiple channels and multiple price points. Our customers’ products are targeted towards different market segments based on consumer demographics, design, suggested pricing and channel of distribution. If any of our customers decide to ‘‘reposition’’ its products under its brands, introduce similar products under similar brand names or otherwise change the parameters of design, pricing, distribution, target market or competitive set, we could experience a significant downturn in that customer’s business, adversely affecting our sales and profitability. In addition, as products may be personally associated with designers or celebrities, our sales of those products could be materially and adversely affected if any of those individuals’ image, reputation or popularity were to be negatively impacted.

If we are unable to successfully translate market trends into attractive product offerings, our sales and profitability could suffer.

Our ability to successfully compete depends on a number of factors, including our ability to effectively anticipate, gauge and respond to changing consumer demands and tastes across multiple product lines and tiers of distribution. We are required to translate market trends into attractive product offerings and operate within substantial production and delivery constraints. We cannot be sure we will continue to be successful in this regard.

Expansion of our product offerings involves significant costs and uncertainty and could adversely affect our results of operations.

An important part of our strategy is to expand the territories in which we sell our products. We intend to continue to add additional product lines in the future. As is typical with new products and new territories, demand and market acceptance for any new products we introduce will be subject to uncertainty. Producing and marketing new products require substantial expenditures. We cannot be certain that our efforts and expenditures will successfully generate sufficient sales or that sales that are generated will be sufficient to cover our expenditures.

If our customers change their buying patterns, request additional allowances or change or develop their own production facilities, our sales to these customers could be materially adversely affected.

Our customers’ buying patterns, as well as the need to provide additional allowances to vendors, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Customers’ strategic initiatives, including changing or developing their own production facilities and reducing the number of vendors they purchase from, could also impact our sales to these customers.
 
8


We have significant customer concentration, and the loss of one of our subsidiaries’ large customers could adversely affect our business.

Best Allied’s largest customers accounted for approximately 52.93% of its net sales in fiscal 2007 and Asian Point’s largest customers accounted for 28.19% of its net sales in fiscal 2007. We do not have long-term contracts with any customers, and sales to customers generally occur on an order-by-order basis that may be subject to cancellation or rescheduling by the customer. A decision by our major customers to decrease the amount of merchandise purchased from us, to increase the use of their own private label brands or to change the manner of doing business with us could reduce our revenues and materially adversely affect our results of operations.

If we miscalculate the market for our products, we may end up with significant excess inventories for some products and missed opportunities for others.

We often produce garments to hold in inventory in order to meet our customers’ delivery requirements and to be able to quickly fulfill reorders. If we misjudge the market for our products, we may be faced with significant excess inventories for some products and missed opportunities for others. In addition, weak sales and resulting markdown requests from customers could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

We are dependent upon outside suppliers.

All of our products are purchased from independent suppliers. The failure of these suppliers to ship products to us in a timely manner or to meet required quality standards could cause us to miss the delivery date requirements of our customers. The failure to make timely deliveries could cause customers to cancel orders, refuse to accept delivery of products or demand reduced prices, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business. We do not have long-term written agreements with any of our suppliers. As a result, any of these suppliers may unilaterally terminate its relationship with us at any time.

We are also dependent on these suppliers for compliance with our policies and the policies of our customers regarding labor practices employed by factories that produce product for us. Any failure by these suppliers to comply with required labor standards or any other divergence in their labor or other practices from those generally considered ethical in the United States, and the potential negative publicity relating to any of these events, could harm us and our reputation which could result in a loss of customers.

We are subject to the risks of doing business abroad.

All of our operations are located in China and Hong Kong and are subject to the usual risks of doing business abroad, including currency fluctuations, political or labor instability and potential import restrictions, duties and tariffs. We do not maintain insurance for the potential lost profits due to disruptions of our factories. Because our products are produced abroad, political or economic instability in the People’s Republic of China, or China or the PRC, or elsewhere could cause substantial disruption in our business. This could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Heightened terrorism security concerns could subject exported goods to additional, more frequent or more thorough inspections. This could delay deliveries or increase costs, which could adversely impact our results of operations. In addition, since we negotiate our purchase orders with customers in United States dollars, the value of the United States dollar against local currencies could impact our cost in dollars of production from these manufacturers. We are not currently engaged in any hedging activities to protect against these currency risks. If there is downward pressure on the value of the dollar, our customers’ purchase prices for our products could increase. We may not be able to offset an increase in production costs with a price increase to our customers.

Fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of materials used in our products could have a material adverse effect on our cost of goods sold and our ability to meet our customers’ demands.

Fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of the materials used in our products could have a material adverse effect on our cost of sales or our ability to meet our customers’ demands. We compete with numerous entities for supplies of materials. The prices for denim and other fabrics used in our products depend largely on the market prices for the raw materials used to produce them, such as raw wool or cotton, which are vulnerable, in part, to natural disasters. We may not be able to pass on all or any portion of higher material prices to our customers.

We depend on inexpensive labor to produce our products. Our failure to retain our employees could decrease our output and harm our business.

The production of textiles is labor-intensive. We depend on inexpensive labor available in the Guangdong province of China. However, there are signs of a labor shortage in the Guangdong province. Due to the development of other provinces in China, there are fewer migrant workers in Guangdong. In order for us to retain our current staff and add additional staff, the Company will have to offer a moderately higher wage. It is important for us to expand our human capital to achieve the goal of increasing competitiveness.

Our failure to comply with environmental and production safety regulations would harm our business operations.

Our production facilities are located in Hong Kong and China and are subject to the environmental and production regulations of those areas. The main pollutants resulting from production in the manufacturing factory of Asian Point are noise and dust particles to the surrounding areas. To tackle this problem, we have taken necessary measures during the setting up of our manufacturing plant to minimize the level of noise, so that it is aligned with the requirements of the applicable environmental laws and regulations. In addition, we carry out regular on-site environmental testing to ensure that our operations comply with regulatory requirements and standards. In regards to our production safety issues, we take strict measures that comply with the production safety regulations of the PRC and Hong Kong. These production audits ensure reasonable working conditions and an adherence to western labor laws. The failure of us to maintain compliance with applicable environmental and safety laws and regulations could cause a temporary shut down of our operations which would delay shipments, divert management’s attention from our business and cause us to incur applicable fees and penalties, all or any of which would harm or operations.

If we lose the services of our key personnel, our business will be harmed.

Our future success depends on our executive officers. Our executive officers have substantial experience and expertise in our business and the loss of the services of any or all of our executives and any negative market or industry perception arising from the loss of their services could have a material adverse effect on us.

We may need additional financing to continue to grow.

The continued growth of our business depends on our access to sufficient funds to support our growth. Our growth is dependent on our ability to extend and increase the line of credit and may be dependent on our ability to refinance the term loan if we do not generate sufficient cash to make the payments due under the term loan. If we are unable to refinance our debt, we cannot be sure we will be able to secure alternative financing on satisfactory terms or at all. At December 31, 2007, our banking facilities consisting of bank loans and other credit facilities were $2,637,514, of which $916,881 has been drawn down and $1,720,633 remains available. Our banking facilities are personally guaranteed by Ms. Ivy Siu Kuen Lam, our President, Chief Operating Officer and a Director of our Board of Directors, Mr. Roger K.W. Fan, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, and Ms. Mei Ling Szeto, our Secretary.

We are dependent on sales during the certain of months each year for the substantial majority of our net sales and net income.

Retail sales of our denim products have traditionally been seasonal in nature. As a result, we are dependent on our sales certain months each of year for the substantial majority of our net sales and net income. Best Allied’s net sales for the month of June 2007 accounted for approximately 28% of its net sales in fiscal 2007. Asian Point’s net sales for the month of March 2007 accounted for approximately 22% in fiscal 2007. Any difficulties we may encounter during this period as a result of weather or disruption of manufacturing or transportation of our products will have a magnified effect on our net sales and net income for the year. In addition, because of the large amount of outerwear we sell, unusually warm weather conditions during the peak fall selling season could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
 
10


Synthetic fibers have grown in popularity during the last couple of years which could have an adverse affect on the demand for our products.

Synthetic fiber fabrics, particularly polyester and polyester blends, have grown in popularity during the past years. . The growth in demand for polyester is partly due to the technical improvements achieved over the last few years, particularly in respect of moisture absorption.

In addition, innovative new fibers and fabrics have increased demand in many different areas. The successful fabrics which appear to have answered the needs of consumers include the wrinkle-free, water-resistant, more washable, soft-stretch fabrics and environmental friendly. For example, cellulosic fibers, including viscose, lyocell and acetate, have gained greater popularity. Also, microfibers have been getting more and more attention. The major benefits of textile products made of microfibers are its light in weight and superior performance in keeping warm. In the field of furnishings, microfibers are more often used in the area of decorative fabrics and drapery.

If consumers increase their purchase of garments made from synthetic fibers as compared to garments made of cotton fibers, our business could be adversely affected.

Risk Factors Relating to the Apparel Industry

The competitive nature of the apparel industry may result in lower prices for our products and decreased gross profit margins.

The apparel business is highly competitive. We have numerous competitors with respect to the production and sale of apparel, including distributors that import apparel from abroad and domestic retailers with established foreign manufacturing capabilities. Many of our competitors have greater financial and marketing resources and greater manufacturing capacity than we do. We also compete with vertically integrated apparel manufacturers that also own retail stores. The general availability of contract manufacturing capacity also allows ease of access by new market entrants. The competitive nature of the apparel industry may result in lower prices for our products and decreased gross profit margins, either of which may materially adversely affect our sales and profitability. Sales of our products are affected by style, price, quality, brand reputation and general fashion trends.

If major department, mass merchant and specialty store chains continue to consolidate, our business could be negatively affected.

We sell our products to major department, mass merchant and specialty store chains. Continued consolidation in the retail industry, such as the recent purchase of May Department Store Company by Federated Department Stores, Inc., could negatively impact our business. Consolidation could reduce the number of our customers and potential customers. With increased consolidation in the retail industry, we are increasingly dependent on retailers whose bargaining strength may increase and whose share of our business may grow. As a result, we may face greater pressure from these customers to provide more favorable terms. If purchasing decisions become more centralized, the risks from consolidation would increase. Customers may also concentrate purchases among a narrowing group of vendors. This could adversely affect our business.

The cyclical nature of the apparel industry and uncertainty over future economic prospects and consumer spending could have a materially adverse effect on our results of operations.

The apparel industry is cyclical. Purchases of outerwear, sportswear and other apparel tend to decline during recessionary periods and may decline for a variety of other reasons, including changes in fashion trends and the introduction of new products or pricing changes by our competitors. Uncertainties regarding future economic prospects could affect consumer-spending habits and have an adverse effect on our results of operations. Uncertainty with respect to consumer spending as a result of weak economic conditions has in the past caused our customers to delay the placing of initial orders and to slow the pace of reorders during the seasonal peak of our business. Weak economic conditions have had a material adverse effect on our results of operations at times in the past and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations in the future as well.

The significant increase in fuel prices could adversely affect our results of operations.

Fuel prices have increased significantly during the past few years. Increased gasoline prices could adversely affect consumer spending, including discretionary spending on apparel. In addition, higher fuel prices could cause our operating expenses to increase, especially with respect to warehousing and freight. Any significant decrease in sales or increase in expenses as a result of higher fuel prices could adversely affect our results of operations.

If new legislation restricting the importation or increasing the cost of textiles and apparel produced abroad is enacted, our business could be adversely affected.

Legislation that would restrict the importation or increase the cost of textiles and apparel produced abroad has been periodically introduced in the U.S. Congress. The enactment of new legislation or international trade regulation, or executive action affecting international textile or trade agreements, could adversely affect our business. International trade agreements that can provide for tariffs and/or quotas can increase the cost and limit the amount of product that can be imported.


The quota system established by the World Trade Organization was eliminated on December 31, 2004. We cannot be certain of the full impact that this elimination will have on international trade in general and the apparel industry in particular. We also cannot be certain of the impact of quota elimination on our business, including increased competition that could result from the importation of an increasing amount of lower priced apparel into the United States. Notwithstanding quota elimination, China’s accession agreement for membership in the WTO provides that WTO member countries, including the United States, may re-impose safeguard quotas on specific products. In May 2005, the United States imposed unilateral quotas on several product categories, limiting growth in imports of these categories to 7.5% a year. The safeguard quotas in several categories have been extended by the United States government and will likely continue through 2008. These limitations apply to a limited number of products imported by us from China. We are unable to assess the potential for additional action by the United States government with respect to these or other product categories in the event that the quantity of imported apparel significantly disrupts the apparel market in the United States. Additional action by the United States in response to a disruption in its apparel markets could limit our ability to import apparel and increase our costs.
 
Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Common Stock

There is no active market for our common stock. One may never develop or if developed, be sustained and you could lose your investment in our common stock.

Currently, there is no active trading market for our common stock. Following the effectiveness of this registration statement, we intend to request that a broker-dealer/market maker submit an application to make a market for our common stock shares on the OTC Bulletin Board. There can be no assurance, however, that the application will be accepted or that any trading market will ever develop or be maintained on the OTC Bulletin Board, pink sheets or any other recognized trading market or exchange. Any trading market that may develop in the future for our common stock will most likely be very volatile, and numerous factors beyond our control may have a significant effect on the market. Only companies that report their current financial information to the SEC may have their securities included on the OTC Bulletin Board. Therefore, only upon the effective date of this registration statement will our commons tock become eligible to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. In the event that we lose our status as a "reporting issuer," any future quotation of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board may be jeopardized.

Our executive officers are in a position to substantially control matters requiring a stockholder vote.

As of the date of this prospectus, our executive officers beneficially owned an aggregate of approximately 86.71% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, if they vote together, they may have the ability to control the outcome on all matters requiring stockholder approval including, but not limited to, the election of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. They also have the ability to control our management and affairs.

The failure to comply with the internal control evaluation and certification requirements of Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley Act could harm our operations and our ability to comply with our periodic reporting obligations.

We will be required to comply with the internal control evaluation and certification requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 by no later than the end of our fiscal year ending March 31, 2008. We are in the process of determining whether our existing internal controls over financial reporting systems are compliant with Section 404. This process may divert internal resources and will take a significant amount of time, effort and expense to complete. If it is determined that we are not in compliance with Section 404, we may be required to implement new internal control procedures and reevaluate our financial reporting. We may experience higher than anticipated operating expenses as well as outside auditor fees during the implementation of these changes and thereafter. Further, we may need to hire additional qualified personnel in order for us to be compliant with Section 404. If we are unable to implement these changes effectively or efficiently, it could harm our operations, financial reporting or financial results and could result in our being unable to obtain an unqualified report on internal controls from our independent auditors, which could adversely affect our ability to comply with our periodic reporting obligations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or Exchange Act, and the rules of the Nasdaq Global Market.

Our common stock is subject to the "Penny Stock" rules of the SEC and the trading market in our securities is limited, which makes transactions in our stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in our stock.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

 
·
that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and

 
·
the broker or dealer receives from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.
 
In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
 
 
·
obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and

 
·
make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

 
·
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and

 
·
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

When used in this Prospectus, the words or phrases “will likely result,” “we expect,” “will continue,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” ”outlook,” “could,” “would,” “may,” or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We wish to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, each of which speaks only as of the date made. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others, success in reaching target markets for products in a highly competitive market and the ability to attract future customers, the size and timing of additional significant orders and their fulfillment, the success of our business emphasis, the ability to finance and sustain operations, the ability to raise equity capital in the future despite, and the size and timing of additional significant orders and their fulfillment. We have no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions, which may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements.
 
USE OF PROCEEDS
 
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock offered through this prospectus by the Selling Stockholders.
 
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
 
The $0.50 per share offering price of our common stock was determined based on our internal assessment of what the market would support. There is no relationship whatsoever between this price and our assets, earnings, book value or any other objective criteria of value.
 
We intend to apply to request a broker-dealer apply to have our common stock quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board upon our becoming a reporting entity under the Exchange Act. We intend to file a registration statement under the Exchange Act concurrently with the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. If our common stock becomes quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board and a market for the stock develops, the actual price of stock will be determined by prevailing market prices at the time of sale or by private transactions negotiated by the Selling Stockholders named in this prospectus. The offering price would thus be determined by market factors and the independent decisions of the Selling Stockholders named in this prospectus.
DILUTION
 
The common stock to be sold by the Selling Stockholders is common stock that is currently issued and outstanding. Accordingly, there will be no dilution to our existing stockholders.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
This prospectus is part of a registration statement that enables the Selling Stockholders to sell their shares on a continuous or delayed after this registration statement is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Selling Stockholders may sell some or all of their common stock in one or more transactions, including block transactions:
 
 
·
In public markets as the common stock may be trading from time to time;
 
 
·
In privately negotiated transactions;
 
 
·
Through the writing of options on the common stock;
 
 
·
In short sales; or
 
 
·
In any combination of the aforementioned methods of distributions.
 
The sales price of the Commons Stock being offered to the public by the Selling Stockholders in this prospectus has been fixed at $0.50 per share until such time as our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board or inter-dealer quotation system or exchange. Although we intend to request a registered broker-dealer apply to have our common stock quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, public trading of our common stock may never materialize or if materialized, be sustained. If our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, then the sales price to the public will vary according to the selling decisions of each Selling Stockholder and the market for our stock at the time of resale. In these circumstances, the sales price to the public may be:
 
· 
the market price of our common stock prevailing at the time of sale;
 
·    
a price related to such prevailing market price of our common stock; or
 
·  
such other price as the Selling Stockholders determine from time to time.
 
The Selling Stockholders named in this prospectus may also sell their shares directly to market makers acting as agents in unsolicited brokerage transactions. Any broker or dealer participating in such transactions as an agent may receive a commission from the Selling Stockholders, or, if they act as an agent for the purchaser of such common stock, from such purchaser. The Selling Stockholders are expected to pay the usual and customary brokerage fees for such services.
 
We can provide no assurance that all or any of the common stock offered will be sold by the Selling Stockholders named in this prospectus.
 
The estimated costs of this offering are $26,100. We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the common stock. The Selling Stockholders, however, will pay any commissions or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of the common stock.
 
The Selling Stockholders named in this prospectus must comply with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in the offer and sale of the common stock. The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers who execute sales for the Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In particular, during such times as the Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be engaged in a distribution of the common stock, and therefore be considered to be an underwriter, they must comply with applicable law and be required to, among other things:
 
·      
Not engage in any stabilization activities in connection with our common stock;
 
· 
Furnish each broker or dealer through which common stock may be offered, such copies of this prospectus, as amended from time to time, as may be required by such broker or dealer; and
 
·    
Not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted under the Exchange Act.
 
If an underwriter is selected in connection with this offering, an amendment will be filed to identify the underwriter, disclose the arrangements with the underwriter, and we will file the underwriting agreement as an exhibit to this prospectus.
 
18

 
The Selling Stockholders and any other persons participating in the sale or distribution of the shares will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations under such act, including, without limitation, Regulation M. These provisions may restrict certain activities of, and limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares by the selling stockholders or any other such person. In the event that the selling stockholders are deemed affiliated purchasers or distribution participants within the meaning of Regulation M, then the selling stockholders will not be permitted to engage in short sales of common stock. Furthermore, under Regulation M, persons engaged in a distribution of securities are prohibited from simultaneously engaging in market making and certain other activities with respect to such securities for a specified period of time prior to the commencement of such distributions, subject to specified exceptions or exemptions. In regards to short sells, the Selling Stockholder can only cover its short position with the securities they receive from us upon conversion. In addition, if such short sale is deemed to be a stabilizing activity, then the Selling Stockholder will not be permitted to engage in a short sale of our common stock. All of these limitations may affect the marketability of the shares.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
 
General
 
Under our Certificate of Incorporation, we are authorized to issue an aggregate of 110,000,000 shares of capital stock, of which 100,000,000 are shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, or Common Stock and 10,000,000 are preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share, or Preferred Stock. As of the date hereof, 20,000,000 shares of our common stock are issued and outstanding, and there are approximately 63 holders of record of our Common Stock.
 
Common Stock
 
Pursuant to our bylaws, our common stock is entitled to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. Except as otherwise required by law or provided in any resolution adopted by our board of directors with respect to any series of preferred stock, the holders of our common stock possess all voting power. Generally, all matters to be voted on by stockholders must be approved by a majority (or, in the case of election of directors, by a plurality) of the votes entitled to be cast by all shares of our common stock that are present in person or represented by proxy, subject to any voting rights granted to holders of any preferred stock. Holders of our common stock representing one-percent (1%) of our capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of our stockholders. A vote by the holders of a majority of our outstanding shares is required to effectuate certain fundamental corporate changes such as liquidation, merger or an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation. Our Certificate of Incorporation do not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.
 
Subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock created by our board of directors from time to time, the holders of shares of our common stock will be entitled to such cash dividends as may be declared from time to time by our board of directors from funds available therefor.

Subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock created from time to time by our board of directors, upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, the holders of shares of our common stock will be entitled to receive, on a pro rata basis, all assets of our company available for distribution to such holders.
 
In the event of any merger or consolidation of our company with or into another company in connection with which shares of our common stock are converted into or exchangeable for shares of stock, other securities or property (including cash), all holders of our common stock will be entitled to receive the same kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property (including cash), on a pro rata basis.
 
Holders of our common stock have no pre-emptive rights, no conversion rights and there are no redemption provisions applicable to our common stock.
 
24

 
There is no active market for our common stock.

Currently, there is no active trading market for our common stock. Following the effectiveness of this registration statement, we intend to request that a broker-dealer/market maker submit an application to make a market for our common stock shares on the OTC Bulletin Board. There can be no assurance, however, that the application will be accepted or that any trading market will ever develop or be maintained on the OTC Bulletin Board, pink sheets or any other recognized trading market or exchange. Any trading market that may develop in the future for our common stock will most likely be very volatile, and numerous factors beyond our control may have a significant effect on the market. Only companies that report their current financial information to the SEC may have their securities included on the OTC Bulletin Board. Therefore, only upon the effective date of this registration statement will our commons tock become eligible to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. In the event that we lose our status as a "reporting issuer," any future quotation of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board may be jeopardized.
 
Preferred Stock
 
Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes our board of directors to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more designated series, each of which shall be so designated as to distinguish the shares of each series of preferred stock from the shares of all other series and classes. Our board of directors is authorized, within any limitations prescribed by law and our Certificate of Incorporation, to fix and determine the designations, rights, qualifications, preferences, limitations and terms of the shares of any series of preferred stock including but not limited to the following:
 
 
(a)     
the rate of dividend, the time of payment of dividends, whether dividends are cumulative, and the date from which any dividends shall accrue;
 
 
(b)     
whether shares may be redeemed, and, if so, the redemption price and the terms and conditions of redemption;
 
 
(c)     
the amount payable upon shares of preferred stock in the event of voluntary or involuntary liquidation;
 
 
(d)     
sinking fund or other provisions, if any, for the redemption or purchase of shares of preferred stock;
 
 
(e)     
the terms and conditions on which shares of preferred stock may be converted, if the shares of any series are issued with the privilege of conversion;
 
 
(f)     
voting powers, if any, provided that if any of the preferred stock or series thereof shall have voting rights, such preferred stock or series shall vote only on a share for share basis with our common stock on any matter, including but not limited to the election of directors, for which such preferred stock or series has such rights; and
 
 
(g)     
subject to the above, such other terms, qualifications, privileges, limitations, options, restrictions, and special or relative rights and preferences, if any, of shares or such series as our board of directors may, at the time so acting, lawfully fix and determine under the laws of the State of Delaware.

In the event of issuance, the preferred stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of our company. Although there are no shares of preferred stock currently issued and outstanding and we have no present intention to issue any shares of preferred stock, no assurance can be given that it will not do so in the future.
 
 Dividend Policy
 
During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2006 and 2007, SWL paid aggregate dividends of $656,582 and $1,516,723, respectively, or approximately $13.13 and $30.33, respectively, for each share of common stock We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION OF
INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES 
 
Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that we are required to indemnify an officer, director, or former officer or director, to the full extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, provided that the person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in and not opposed to the best interests of the company.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Organizational History

On October 25, 2007, we merged with a reporting shell company, Freedom 3, Inc., or Freedom, a Delaware corporation. On such date, Freedom redeemed 100,000 shares of its common stock, which was all of its issued and outstanding common stock, from its then current stockholder in exchange for 300,000 shares of restricted common stock of the resultant issuer after the merger as per the redemption agreement. Freedom then sold one share of its common stock to SWL for $1.00. This resulted in SWL owning 100% of Freedom. SWL and Freedom then entered into a Share Exchange Agreement or the Exchange Agreement, dated October 25, 2007, pursuant to which each share of common stock and preferred stock of SWL was converted into 350 shares of Freedom’s common stock and one share of Freedom’s preferred stock, respectively and all of the issued and outstanding shares of SWL’s common stock were retired and cancelled. This resulted in the stockholders of SWL to become stockholders of Freedom. The previous stockholder of Freedom was then issued 300,000 shares of Freedom as agreed previously. The one share of Freedom’s common stock held by SWL was then cancelled and SWL sold one share of its common stock to Freedom, which resulted in Freedom owning 100% of SWL. Freedom then changed its name to Sound Worldwide Holdings, Inc.

Prior the exchange, Freedom was a reporting shell company with no operations and nominal assets.

The following summarizes the organizational history and location of our subsidiaries:

·
Sound Worldwide Limited, or SWL, was formed in July 1999 and it currently is the holding company for Asian Point Investment Limited and Best Allied Industrial Limited.
 
·
Best Allied Industrial Limited, or Best Allied, which has its production based in the Kwun Tong District of Hong Kong, was formed in April 1997.
 
·
Asian Point Investment Limited, or Asian Point, which leases Heyuan Yuenya Weaving Factory in Heyuan, Guangdong Province, was registered in June 1999.

Introduction to Freedom

SWL was introduced to Freedom by a group of businessmen. It was originated by Mr. Vincent Lau of International Professional Accountants Co. Ltd. of Hong Kong, or IPAC. IPAC has been providing accounting services to Sound Worldwide since the 1990. In 2005, Mr. Lau introduced Sound Worldwide to Mr. Alan Chan of Calgary, Alberta, Canada and indicated that Sound Worldwide wished to become a public company. Subsequently, Mr. Chan introduced Sound Worldwide to Mr. Larry Fortman of Oxford Group of Charlotte, North Carolina. Collectively, the three businessmen assisted Sound Worldwide throughout the whole process in becoming a public company. This included finding it a suitable reporting shell company in the U.S., helping it with its business plan, performing the necessary due diligence prior to introducing it to Freedom, negotiating a merger agreement with Freedom, and helping it throughout the merger process with Freedom.
 
For providing all of the above services, the group and their nominees were given an opportunity to acquire 2,000,000 shares of Sound Worldwide Holdings, Inc. at a cost of $0.0001 per share.  As well, the group is also to receive compensation for other services, such as accounting services, administration and reimbursement for traveling expenses. 
 
Change in Fiscal Year
 
On December 21, 2007, the Board of Directors of the Company, by unanimous written consent, approved to change the Company’s fiscal year end from December 31st to March 31st, effective immediately. The Company’s Board of Directors made the decision because the Company conducts all of its business and operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary, SWL, and its two subsidiaries, Best Allied and Asian Point, each of which has fiscal years ending on March 31st. The Board of Directors of the Company believes it to be in the best interest of the Company to align its reporting cycle with the reporting cycle of SWL
 
26

 
Unless stated otherwise, the words “we,” “us,” “our,” “the Company” or “Sound Worldwide” in this prospectus collectively refers to Sound Worldwide Holdings, Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary, SWL, and SWL’s two subsidiaries, Asian Point and Best Allied.

Our Company

We are a holding company incorporated under the laws of Delaware. Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, SWL, and its two subsidiaries, Asian Point and Best Allied, we manufacture and sell denim fabrics and garments out of Hong Kong and China. Asian Point not only sells denim products to clients, but it also supplies material to Best Allied. We intend to continue our focus on the vertical integration of our operations.

SWL owns production plants in the Kwun Tong District of Hong Kong and in the city of Heyuan, in the Guangdong Province of China. Between the two operations of these production plants, we produce various types of denim fabric and garments. Additionally, SWL is a garment contractor for a number of well known brands such as GAP, Levis, ECKO and Giordano. Our products are sold to customers worldwide, with over 50% exported to the U.S. and the rest throughout Western Europe and other countries.

Business Objectives

Our business objective is to expand our market share by advanced production technology, effective cost control techniques, superior quality control system, strong marketing effort and excellent management experience.

Growth Strategy

To ensure steady growth and income earnings during the future development of the Company, we anticipate implementing the following plans:

Increasing Operations

We intend to acquire state-of-the art machinery which we believe will the increase our production and processing efficiency. We also plan on increasing the number of weaving machines from 50 sets to 100 sets to meet anticipated demand.

We also intend to create a marketing team for the purpose of attracting additional clients. The current channels that we have used to develop our business have been adequate, but we believe an internal marketing team could offer more opportunities, especially in Eastern Europe.

Vertical Integration

Our future plan also includes eventually controlling all of the steps in the production process, from the extraction of raw materials through the manufacture and sale of the final products, known as vertical integration. We believe that a vertically integrated company that controls all of the steps of production, from supplying the raw materials to manufacturing the finished product has a very strong competitive advantage. By being vertically integrated, we would not have to depend on outside entities to add value to our products. We would be able to manage the quality of its product throughout the whole process, which we believe would result in superior products at reasonable price points.

We believe that vertical integration can occur separately in each of our subsidiaries. In Asian Point, our textile manufacturing subsidiary, we believe can achieve upstream integration by acquiring a factory to prepare and size the yarn using a warp beam. When weaving with a loom, the vertical yarns are attached to a warp beam before weaving begins. With its own facilities, Asian Point can minimize average production costs of the textiles. Best Allied, our subsidiary which manufactures denim garments, could achieve downstream manufacturing by acquiring a finishing factory, which could wash and/or dye the garments. Finishing denim is labor intensive which entails a lot of the work to be done by hand. This ends up to be a large portion of the costs of the final product. Best Allied having its own internal finishing factory would help reduce the costs per unit, which would be expected to result in a higher profit margin.
 
27

 
Products and Production

The current machinery installed in our production plants provides flexibility and efficiency for the production processes. We are therefore able to adjust our production schedule in response to the demand of the market and customers, without incurring any significant additional costs or expenses.

Product Characteristics

We are able to provide a number of different types of denim fabrics through special procedures. In recent years, the denim clothing market has become even more fashionable and brand driven. Different denim fabrics are currently manufactured using pigment-dyed, stone-washed, and stretch-and-blend techniques, which produce more varieties of denim fabrics such as ring denim, stretch denim, cowboy corduroy and colored denim (e.g., yellow and green shades).

Production Line

Given that SWL manufactures denim fabrics and garments through Asian Point and Best Allied, respectively, it is essential to understand the production process of both these subsidiaries.

Asian Point:

The following is the “step-by-step” production process for Asian Point:

Step 1. Stored Yarn & Pre-weaving Preparation

In the initial stage, Asian Point purchases material and yarn. The raw materials are then made ready for the weaving process which is outsourced to an external company. This preparation occurs at an external sizing factory, which uses warp beams to prepare the yarn. All specifications for the denim are predetermined by Asian Point’s clients.

Step 2. Weaving

Once the process of sizing is finished, the semi-finished product is transported back to Asian Point for weaving.

Step 3. Inspection

Since Asian Point’s goal is to provide a high quality product, inspection is a very important step to ensure quality standards are met before storage. All denim is sent to the quality control department for inspection before it moves on to the next stage.

Step 4. Storage

The product, which is now ready for delivery, is then stored in the factory. Here clients have the chance to inspect the finished product before they take possession of the material.

Step 5. Retail

Most of the denim is sold to garment manufacturers, while some will end up in the retail sector.
 
28

 
Best Allied:
 
Once orders are received from a client, Best Allied’s production process begins with making a pattern on a computer, called automated marking, and then plotting full-size or scaled patterns and markers on the fabric. Meanwhile, purchases of raw material and inspection of raw material are performed in order to comply with the client’s specifications as well as desired quality. Once computer marking and plotting are done, the material then undergoes the process of inspection, cutting and sewing. Fusing and ironing are the finishing touches that are made before delivering the garments to the clients. The following depicts the “step-by-step” production process of Best Allied:

Step 1. Computer Marking
â
Step 2. Computer Plotting
â
Step 3. Fabric Inspection
â
Step 4. Cutting
â
Step 5. Sewing
â
Step 6. Fusing
â
Step 7. Ironing

Quality Control and Assurance

We place significant focus on quality control throughout the entire production process. This is done to ensure the delivery of a consistently high quality finished product to the customer. Our main quality control procedures are outlined below.

1.  Inspection and testing of incoming materials
 
The quality of all raw materials, components, and spare parts that have been purchased are subject to sample inspections in order to ensure that they meet the requirements of China’s government, the industry and the client.

2. Inspection and testing of semi-finished products

Semi-finished products undergo inspection to ensure that they comply with specific technical requirements.

3. Final inspection and testing

Quality control procedures are also applied after both the textile and garment processes are finished to ensure that the color, weight, width and the characteristics of the processed denim fabrics and garments comply with the customer’s specifications before they are packaged and delivered to the customer. As a result of strict quality control procedures, we experience a minimal return rate on our fabrics and garments.

Significant Suppliers and Clients: 

Best Allied’s largest customers accounted for approximately 52.9% of its net sales in fiscal 2007 and Asian Point’s largest customers accounted for approximately 28.2% of its net sales in fiscal 2007. We do not have any minimum purchase obligations or other contractual obligations with our suppliers.

Environmental and Production Safety Regulations on Production

Our production facilities are located in Hong Kong and the PRC and are subject to the environmental and production regulations of the PRC. The main pollutants resulting from production in the manufacturing factory of Asian Point are noise and dust particles to the surrounding areas. To tackle this problem, we have taken necessary measures during the setting up of our manufacturing plant to minimize the level of noise, so that it is aligned with the requirements of the applicable environmental laws and regulations. In addition, we carry out regular on-site environmental testing to ensure that our operations comply with regulatory requirements and standards. In regards to our production safety issues, we take strict measures that comply with the production safety regulations of the PRC and Hong Kong. Since our clients are highly regarded around the world, each client has already performed its own audit of our processes. These production audits ensure reasonable working conditions and an adherence to western labor laws.

Market Analysis

Demand for Textiles and Garments

The textile and garment industries have become a basic part of global economics. We believe that the demand for textiles and garments is sensitive to the expenditure behavior of consumers as well as the price point of products but that changes in income do not have any significant effects on consumers’ buying habits of denim products.
 
World Textile and Garment Demand

Over the past ten years, we believe that the textile and garment industries have played major part of global trade.
 
Based on our experience in these industries, we be that Although world spending on textiles and garments is significant, developed countries do not have the capacity to produce textile and garments to satisfy their demand. We believe that companies in developed countries, such as the U.S. and European countries, are able to satisfy their unmet demand for textiles and garments by importing these products from countries, such as China and Hong Kong, where Production costs are relatively low.

China Textile and Garment Industry

The PRC is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of textiles and garments. According to the PRC’s industrial production figures for December 2006 as prepared by National Bureau of China, total production of textile products is as follow:

Production and processing of fabrics have become one of the major businesses in the PRC. In 2006, the PRC’s total export of garments and clothing accessories amount to $81.2 billion, which represents a 7.1% increase from 2005. The textile yarn and fabrics exports totaled $58.4 billion in 2006, which represented a 7.9% increase from 2005.

According to “China Textile Industry Profile: 2006,” in the past, industrial traders in the PRC have mainly exported low to medium grade textiles and garments to Africa, South America and developed countries. This has changed in recent years. The industry has seen an increase in the demand for value added fabrics and textiles consisting of higher grade material.

Under the Tenth Five Year Plan covering 2001 to 2005, which was approved in the fourth meeting of the Ninth PRC National People’s Congress held on March 15, 2001, PRC authorities intended to further expand production levels and upgrade production standards within PRC textile industry.

Factors Contributing to the Development of PRC Textile industry:

 
·
Skilled and inexpensive labor;
     
 
·
Relatively low value of RMB compared to other currencies;
     
 
·
Inexpensive raw materials; and
     
 
·
Relatively low shipment costs.

Hong Kong Textile and Garment Industry

Since 1950, when Hong Kong first emerged as a manufacturing hub, its textile industry has grown steadily. Hong Kong’s textile industry serves not only the local clothing manufacturers, but also those on the Chinese mainland and other offshore production bases. Capitalizing on its experience in textiles manufacturing, many Hong Kong companies are also engaged in trading textiles. Hong Kong’s textiles industry is reputed as a supplier of quality dyed and printed fabrics. It is also a leader in cotton spinning, denim wearing, knit-to-shape panel knitting, and fine-gauge cotton knit manufacturing.
 
According to the Hong Kong Trade Development Council’s article ‘Profiles of Hong Kong Major Manufacturing Industries’, (January 30, 2007), the textile industry has a total of 889 manufacturing establishments as of September 2006, 10,599 workers, or 7.2% of the local manufacturing workforce. The article also states that textiles industry is one of Hong Kong's major export earners, accounting for 3.1% of total domestic exports in 2006 and that Asia is the main destination for textiles produced in Hong Kong. Approximately 90% of Hong Kong’s textiles remain in the region. The articles further states, that Chinese mainland is the predominant export market, accounting for 70% of Hong Kong’s textile exports in 2006.

Marketing and Business Strategies

Marketing Strategies

China and Hong Kong exports are expected to continue to increase due to China’s entry into the WTO and Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement (“CEPA”) between China and Hong Kong. Since SWL’s main export targets are the United States and the European Union, China’s entry into the WTO has had a positive impact on its competitiveness against other competitors in these markets. Moreover, the CEPA between Hong Kong and China removes tariffs on Hong Kong products, which provides an opportunity for the Hong Kong garment and textile industry to develop its business in the PRC. We will take advantage of these opportunities to develop the Chinese and the world markets by implementing the following marketing strategies:

 
·
Continue to strengthen relationships with major downstream clients in the United States and Japan. We believe that this will ensure the stability of our sales and prestige when negotiating with new clients.

31

 
 
·
Expand our marketing team for the Eastern European market, including but not limited to Russia), which we believe has huge potential for textile and garment consumption.

 
·
Develop our marketing network with reputable trading companies, such as Li & Fung Trading Limited, which has a strong textile and garment sales network with international clients. We believe that this will help increase our sales and widen our geographical network.

 
·
Develop our own garment retailing network in China. Seeing as Hong Kong textile and garment products are favored by Chinese consumers, we believe that developing our own garment label and retailing network will enhance our profitability.

Business Strategies

Our short-term, mid-term and long-term strategies to implement our business plan are as follows:

Short-Term Strategies

We will take advantage of the opportunities provided by CEPA and trade liberalization of the WTO. In the short term, we intend to focus on increasing our competitiveness by expanding our business in China and Eastern Europe.

Different short-term strategies will be carried out in the Company’s subsidiaries.

Asian Point:

In order to achieve our goal of expanding our business and remain competitive, Asian Point intends to acquire more advanced machinery, reorganize human resources, and expand its marketing team. In the short term, we believe that this will allow Asian Point to minimize increasing production costs and enhance efficiency and profitability. Since the production of textiles is labor-intensive and there are signs of a possible labor shortage arising in the Guangdong Province, it is important for Asian Point to take the above-mentioned short term strategies. These strategies will not only ensure the stability and profitability of Asian Point, but also allow Asian Point to benefit from economies of scale. With trade liberalization factored by China’s entry into the WTO, Asian Point also intends to expand its marketing team to develop its overseas market.

Best Allied:

Best Allied intends to expand its Hong Kong garment manufacturing base and marketing team into China to capitalize on the opportunities provided by CEPA. Hong Kong garment manufacturers enjoy zero tariffs in the PRC. Best Allied intends to expand its production capacity and improving efficiency for the development of the China market. However, expanding production capacity and improving efficiency only ensures reaching the short-term goals of consolidating the competitiveness of Sound Worldwide but does not grow the company’s business. It is essential to develop a strong Chinese marketing team to facilitate the goal of expanding business in the PRC.

Mid-Term Strategies
 

Once our short term goals of enhancing efficiency and developing our marketing network are completed, we intend to focus on the vertical integration of our subsidiaries. We believe that we can further improve our profitability by taking advantage of upstream and downstream opportunities. Below summarizes our vertical integration strategies planned for our subsidiaries in the mid-term.
 
32


Asian Point:

In the mid-term, Asian Point will focus on upstream activities by acquiring a sizing factory and a shrinkage factory, which would be used to pre-shrink the denim. We believe that vertical integration of Asian Point will minimize production costs since Asian Point will not have to depend on outside suppliers. By controlling all aspects of production, issues such as product quality and delivery deadlines will no longer be a problem for Asian Point.

Best Allied:

Best Allied plans to focus its mid-term strategies on downstream operations. Best Allied has gained invaluable experience from manufacturing garments for many world renowned brands. Best Allied understands the latest trends and fashions set out by its clients. This understanding and experience has created a good foundation for training its designers to develop new garments to meet cutting edge demands. We intend for Best Allied to establish its design department during this stage to prepare for its long-term strategies.

Long-Term Strategies
 
Our long-term strategies are to further increase asset turnover and increase productivity. The long-term business strategies of our subsidiaries are as follows:

Asian Point:

We expect that Asian Point will develop an additional manufacturing base in XinTang, Guangdong Province, which it is a hub for wholesalers and buyers of denim products from all across China. Asian Point currently has extensive connections with buyers from various provinces around China. Once Asian Point has the capacity, we anticipate it to take the initiative and enlarge its production and sales network. It could go as far as expanding into retail outlets in XinTang, which serves as the center of the garment and textile industry in Guangdong province.

Best Allied:

We expect that Best Allied will create its own clothing label for overseas clients in Eastern Europe, which will serve as a testing ground. If the testing shows promise, we expect Best Allied to start promoting its label in the U.S. and European department stores. We anticipate Best Allied also developing a chain of fashion stores, which will cater to women, teenagers and children. Additionally, we also anticipate Best Allied creating a different label for the Chinese market. We believe that opportunities arising from CEPA and the ongoing garment consumption trends towards Hong Kong products give Best Allied’s products a competitive advantage against other foreign manufacturers. If Best Allied can leverage these advantages, we believe that it will lead to an enhanced sales network, higher inventory turnover, and greater profitability.
 
Staff and Structural Setup

We currently employ 200 persons, five of whom are part of management. Since SWL is the integration of a textile and garment companies, internal structural setup is simple and flexible. This make-up not only meets the current development needs of SWL, but also provides adequate room for future growth.

Employees

We currently employ 200 persons, five of whom are part of management.
 
33

 
We operate a Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme for all qualifying employees in Hong Kong. The assets of the plan are held separately from those of the Company by the trustees of the plan. We contribute 5% of the relevant payroll costs to the plan, which contribution is matched by employees. The contributions paid by the Company for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 were $29,328 and $9,646, respectively.

Our employees are not represented by a labor union. We have not experienced work stoppages and consider our employee relations to be good.

Our Subsidiaries’ Organizational History
 
The following summarizes the organizational history:

· SWL was formed in July 1999.
 
· Best Allied was formed in April 1997.
 
· Asian Point was registered in China in June 1999.

Business Objective

Our business objective is to become a cost-effective denim fabric and garment manufacturer with high quality, competitive prices, a comprehensive product range and eventually expand the market share by advanced production technology, effective cost control techniques, superior quality control system, strong marketing effort and excellent management experience.

Market Forecast1  Source: CEPA-A Survey of Garment Shoppers in Southern, Central and Western China, 2004 and CEPA- A Survey of Garment Shoppers in Eastern and Northern China, 2004.

Whereas it is expected that world spending on textiles and garments will continue to increase by 4% to 5% per year due to the economic growth of developed countries, the industry expects textile and garment exports from China and Hong Kong will increase by more than 5% per year.

China:

China enters Word Trade Organization (WTO)

Due to PRC’s entry into the WTO in December 2001, the average tariff rates on imported textiles have dropped from approximately 22% - 25 % pre-WTO entry to approximately 14% -16% in 2005. Pursuant to the Agreement on Textile and Clothing (ATC) implemented under the WTO, the historic quota system imposed by other counties on the importing of PRC textile products on select product categories has been phased out in 2005. This is expected to continue to boost the textile processing and manufacturing volumes in the PRC as well as the export of clothing manufactured in the PRC.

Hong Kong:

Benefits from China’s entry to WTO

The complete removal of quotas worldwide under the ATC has and is expected to speed up the rationalization of globalize clothing manufacturing. Clothing production in the Asian region is set to expand. As such, Hong Kong’s textiles export to other Asian markets, particularly the PRC, is anticipated to increase in the future. China’s entry into the WTO is widely believed to offer good opportunities for Hong Kong’s textiles industry. Quota elimination on imports of China-origin textiles from trade liberalization encourages Hong Kong manufacturers to shift more of their production to the mainland, thereby enhancing their cost competitiveness. On the other hand, China’s commitment to further opens its domestic market facilitates Hong Kong’s textiles manufacturers and traders contemplating or expanding sales in the Chinese market. Together with steady improvements in the general living standard in the PRC, it is anticipated that demand for foreign made clothing will increase in the PRC market.

Closer Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA)

The Mainland and Hong Kong Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement (CEPA) was brought into effect in June 2003. A total of 50 Hong Kong-made textile items, subject to the CEPA’s rules of origin, enjoy duty-free access to the Chinese mainland as of January 1, 2004, whereas non-Hong Kong made counterparts will remain subject to tariffs ranging from 5 to 18.7%. Eligible items include products under HS codes defined by the Mainland Customs. In 2006, Hong Kong’s domestic exports of these eligible items to the mainland amounted to about $464 million.

Chinese textile and garment consumption trend towards Hong Kong products

According to a survey taken by Hong Kong Trade Development Council on consumption trend of textile and garment in China, the result concluded that Chinese consumers have a strong desire for Hong Kong textile and garment products. Seeing that the average spending on textile and garment products is $406.50 per person in the PRC.

Industry Trends

China2 
China's textile industry has returned to a regular growth after the period of high-speed growth which followed the country's entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO). According to the latest statistics jointly issued by the Industry Department and the Statistics Centre of the China National Textile and Apparel Council (CNTAC), in the nine months ended December 31, 2007 versus the same period ended December 31, 2006, the operation of China's textile industry demonstrated steady growth of production, slower export growth and change of growth method, import volume reduction.
 
Several factors influenced the operations of the industry. Firstly, the growing demand in China and abroad. In 2007, the demand on the international market is steady; developing countries in Asia and Africa have become the new engine for the increase in the textile industry's export. Statistics show that China is export to the United States increased 27.11% in the nine months ended December 31, 2007 versus the same period in 2006; that to the 25 countries of the EU, up 26.67%; Japan, up 4.11%; and that to African countries increased rapidly to 38.55% and 40.1%, respectively, contributing 25% to the country's export growth. At the same time, the domestic demand remained strong. The output value for domestic sales of large textile enterprises accounted for 74.86% of the total industrial sales output value, 17.3% higher than that in the same period of last year.
 
Secondly, the adjustment and upgrading of industrial structure have started taking effect. China's textile industry has achieved consistent improvement of equipment in the nine months in 2007 versus the same period in 2006. Its total import of textile machinery and parts reached US$3.172 billion in January-August, rising 21.81% year over year. The per capita labor productivity of large textile enterprises rose 22% year over year.
 
Hong Kong3 
 
According to the Hong Kong Trade Development Council’s article ‘Profiles of Hong Kong Major Manufacturing Industries’, (January 30, 2007), in recent years, with rising production costs inflated in part by stringent environmental regulations, Hong Kong's textiles manufacturers have established offshore production facilities in low-cost countries, particularly on the Chinese mainland and in Southeast Asian countries. A few companies have also set up offshore production in Latin America, including Mexico, to take advantage of preferential treatments allowed by trade agreements between these countries and their trading partners, typically the US.

37

 
In the face of fierce competition in the global market, Hong Kong's textiles industry is moving up-market to supply sophisticated textile products with original designs. Today, the operation of the textiles industry in Hong Kong is focused on higher value-added activities such as sales and marketing, quality control, designs and development while offshore plants are specialized in lower value-added operations.

The textiles industry has invested heavily in capital-intensive and advanced machinery to keep up with the latest technology know-how. Advanced production technologies are sourced mostly from vendors from Germany, Switzerland and Japan. Modern machinery has been widely adopted by local manufacturers. As such, Hong Kong textiles manufacturers are able to offer a wide range of fibers and fabrics to clients.

Product Trends4 
Cotton remains the preferred fiber for most consumers. Europeans, in particular, are enthusiastic about the environmentally friendly properties of biodegradable natural fibers. Consumers also tend to buy more manmade fiber fabrics, particularly polyester and polyester blends. The growth in demand for polyester is partly due to the technical improvements achieved over the last few years, particularly in respect of moisture absorption.

In addition, innovative new fibers and fabrics have buoyed demand in many different areas. The successful fabrics which appear to have answered the needs of consumers include the wrinkle-free, water-resistant, more washable, soft-stretch fabrics and environmental friendly. For example, cellulosic fibers, including viscose, lyocell and acetate, have gained greater popularity.

Microfibers have been getting more and more attention. The major benefits of textile products made of microfibers are its light in weight and superior performance in keeping warm. In the field of furnishings, microfibers are more often used in the area of decorative fabrics and drapery.

Additional Challenges

The following are additional challenges facing our company:

 
·
Signs of a labor shortage in Guangdong Province
 
In the last few years, there have been signs of a labor shortage in the Guangdong Province in the PRC due to the rapid development of other parts of China. Due to the fact that textile and garment manufacturing is relatively labor intensive, a shortage of labor could cause an increase in production costs and weaken our profitability.

 
·
Appreciation of the Renminbi (RMB) versus the U.S. Dollar

Other than increasing production costs in China, the appreciation of the RMB, the currency of mainland China, against foreign currencies, mainly the U.S. Dollar, could harm the competitiveness of China-made textile and garment products. The U.S. Dollar has been currently depreciating against the RMB and other foreign currencies, making it more expensive for U.S. importers of foreign goods. As the value of the RMB increases against other currencies of major exporting partners, buyers would turn to other countries to manufacture lower priced products.

Strengths, Weakness, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) Analysis and Control Policies

SWOT Analysis

We believe our Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Targets (SWOT) are the following::

Strengths:

 
·
Advanced production facilities:

Our newly acquired weaving machinery and technology for production meet market standards.

 
·
Experienced management team:

We employ a professional management team with substantial experience in the denim fabrics industry, particularly in terms of applying advanced technology to improve product quality and production efficiency.

 
·
Excellent quality of product with a good reputation:
 
We believe we maintain an excellent quality of product in order to uphold our reputation amongst our globally recognized name brands and clients. Our quality control standards have always been strictly enforced.

 
·
Solid distribution network:

We have maintained solid relationships with many large suppliers, buyers and direct users around the world. Our sales are largely based on its enduring business foundation.

We are a holding company formed in the state of Delaware. On October 25, 2007, we merged with a registered shell company, Freedom 3, Inc., or Freedom, a Delaware corporation.

Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Sound Worldwide Limited, or Sound Worldwide or SWL, a British Virgins Island corporation, and its two subsidiaries, we manufacture and sell denim fabrics and garments from our facilities in Hong Kong and China. SWL’s two subsidiaries are Asian Point, and Best Allied.

Asian Point is based in a 27,500 square foot production plant located in the city of Heyuan, which is in the Guangdong Province of the People’s Republic of China, or PRC or China, and is engaged the production of denim fabric for clients and for Best Allied.

Best Allied is based in a 13,000 square foot production plant located in the Kwun Tong District of Hong Kong and is engaged in the production of garment products. We intend to continue our focus on the vertical integration of our operations.

Through our subsidiaries, Sound Worldwide is able to produce various types of fabric and garment products. Additionally, Sound Worldwide is a garment contractor for a number of well known brands such as GAP, Levis, ECKO, and Giordano. The Company’s products are sold to customers worldwide, with over 50% exported to the U.S. marketplace and the rest throughout Western Europe and other countries. Sound Worldwide has been devoting resources to enhance its fabric and garment production technology, capacity, efficiency, and flexibility. This is intended to help Sound Worldwide to meet the perceived increasing and changing demand of the textile and garment market.

Weaknesses:

 
·
Non-diversified geographical marketing:

Although have a number of well known clients, sales of our products is limited to the U.S., Western Europe and Japan. We believe we need to diversify our sales to different geographic locations so that fluctuation in sales will be minimized. These fluctuations are generally caused by economic downturns and a change in preferences for garments and textiles.
 
39


 
·
Insufficient production backup:

Our production chain, from raw materials to textiles and garments, requires separated production backups of weaving (sizing factories) and shrinking (shrinkage factories). Currently, we out-source these operations to our affiliates. Future concerns regarding stability in production timing and quality control may not allow us to operate at our full potential.

Opportunities:

 
·
China entry to WTO

Following China’s entry into the WTO, average tariff rates on imported textiles have dropped from approximately 22%-25 % pre-WTO entry to approximately 14% - 16% in 2005. Eventually, these tariffs will be eliminated sometime in the future. Moreover, the Agreement on Textile and Clothing (ATC) implemented under the WTO in 2005 phased out the historic quota system imposed by other counties on the importing of certain PRC textile products. This is expected to continue to boost textile processing and manufacturing volumes in the PRC.

 
·
Opportunities of CEPA

The PRC and Hong Kong Closer Economic Partnership Arrangement (CEPA) was concluded in June 2003. Subject to the CEPA’s rules of origin, Hong Kong products have enjoyed duty-free access to the Chinese mainland since January 2004, whereas non-Hong Kong made counterparts have remained subject to tariffs ranging from 5%-18.7%. This has provided a comparative advantage to our products against foreign-made textiles and garments.

Policies

In order to mitigate any damages to the future prospects of the Company, which may result from the industry and product trends and other threats and weaknesses previously outlined, we intend to implement the following policies:

 
·
Expand the sales and marketing teams in order to develop Eastern European markets. We believe that this should allow product sales to diversify into different geographical areas.

 
·
Acquiring more advanced equipment to transform our operations from labor-intensive to capital intensive. This should not only allow us to avoid the effects of increased production costs caused by lack of labor, but also enhance the efficiency of production.

 
·
Vertical integration to provide stability as well as improve our profitability by reducing our margins.

 
·
We anticipate putting in place currency hedging strategy so that fluctuations in the RMB or U.S. dollar should not have a significant effect on our profitability.

We believe that the above-mentioned control policies, to a large extent, should minimize the volatility of the threats and weaknesses encountered by SWL. However, to the extent consumers replace, rather than supplement, their purchases of garments made from cotton fibers with synthetic fibers, we will be further pressured to decrease our margins in order to be profitable.
 
40


Revenue Recognition Policies

We recognize revenue when goods are delivered and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, collections of the relevant receivable is probable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and the sales price is fixed or determinable.

Sales of goods represent the invoiced value of goods, net of sales returns, trade discounts and allowances.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management uses its best judgment in valuing these estimates and may, as warranted, solicit external professional advice and other assumptions believed to be reasonable. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. The following critical accounting policies, some of which are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions and estimates, affect the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Revenue recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue when the following fundamental criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) our price to the customer is fixed or determinable and (iv) collection of the resulting accounts receivable is reasonably assured. These criteria are usually met at the time of product shipment. The Company does not recognize revenue until all customer acceptance requirements have been met and no significant obligations remain, when applicable. Customer purchase orders and/or contracts are generally used to determine the existence of an arrangement. Shipping documents are used to verify product delivery. We assess whether a price is fixed or determinable based upon the payment terms associated with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment. We assess the collectibility of our accounts receivable based primarily upon the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by credit checks and analysis, as well as the customer’s payment history.
 
Sales of goods represent the invoiced value of goods, net of sales returns, trade discounts and allowances. The Company records reductions to revenue for estimated product returns and pricing adjustments in the same period that the related revenue is recorded. The amount of these reductions is based on historical sales returns, analysis of credit memo data, and other factors known at the time.

Trade accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at original amount less allowance made for doubtful receivables, if any, based on a review of all outstanding amounts at the year end. An allowance is also made when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to original terms of receivables. Bad debts are written off when identified. Asian Point and Best Allied extend unsecured credit to customers in the normal course of business and believes all accounts receivable in excess of the allowances for doubtful receivables to be fully collectible. They do not accrue interest on trade accounts receivable.
 
41


Inventory

Inventories, which primarily consist of yarns, denim fabrics, garments and other textile materials and products, are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method. Write down of potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory is recorded based on management’s assumptions about future demand and market conditions.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS No 159). SFAS No. 159 permits an entity to elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for many financial assets and liabilities. Entities electing the fair value option would be required to recognize changes in fair value in earnings. Entities electing the fair value option are required to distinguish, on the face of the statement of financial position, the fair value of assets and liabilities for which the fair value option has been elected and similar assets and liabilities measured using another measurement attribute. The Group is required to adopt SFAS No 159 beginning on January 1, 2008. The adjustment to reflect the difference between the fair value and the carrying amount would be accounted for as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the date of initial adoption. Although the Group will continue to evaluate the provisions of SFAS No. 159, management currently does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
Basis of Presentation

Prior to its merger with SWL on October 25, 2007, Freedom was a reporting shell company with no operations and nominal operations. The sole founder and stockholder of Freedom funded Freedom’s pre-merger operations from such stockholder’s personal funds. Therefore, the Results of Operations in this MD&A for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006 and the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 (pro forma) reflect the consolidated business assets and operations of Sound Worldwide. We believe such information is beneficial to potential investors in order to allow them to make an informed investment decision in our common stock.

Results of Operations for the Three And Nine Month Periods Ended December 31, 2007 Compared to Three And Nine Month Periods Ended December 31, 2006, Respectively.

Revenues

Our revenues decreased by $710,849, or 25.47%, from $2,791,444 in the three months ended December 31, 2006 to $2,080,595 for the corresponding period in 2007. For the nine months ended December 31, 2007 our revenues decreased by $2,592,705, or 23.35%, from $11,101,888 in 2006 to $8,509,183 in 2007. These decreases were mainly attributable to more high-valued customer orders received in the nine months ended December 31, 2007 when compared to 2006, in which longer manufacturing lead time was required. That resulted in a smaller amount of revenue be recorded in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007 compared to the three and nine months ended December 31, 2006.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Prior to the merger with SWL on October 25, 2007, Freedom was a reporting shell company with no operations and nominal operations. For accounting purposes, we treated our acquisition of SWL as a recapitalization of our company. As a result, we treat the historical financial information of SWL as our historical financial information. The sole founder and stockholder of Freedom funded Freedom’s pre-merger operations from such stockholder’s personal funds.

Our primary liquidity and capital resource needs are to finance the costs of our operations and to make capital expenditures. To date, we have financed our business operations through our banking facility and loans from officers and directors. We believe we will have adequate liquidity through the next twelve months to operate our business and to meet our cash requirements.

Comparison of Liquidity for the Nine Months Ended December 31, 2007 and 2006

As of December 31, 2007, we had cash of $161,741, current assets of $1,625,573 and current liabilities of $1,819,010. Our working capital as of December 31, 2007 is $(193,437).

Net cash used in operating activities totaled $292,761 for the nine month period ended December 31, 2007, which was a decrease from the net cash provided by operating activities, which totaled $936,073 for the nine month period ended December 31, 2006. This change is primarily attributable to an increase in inventory level in order to meet the expected demand of products.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $12,561 for the nine month period ended December 31, 2007, which was a decrease for the net cash provided by investing activities, which totaled $207,450 for the nine month period ended December 31, 2006. The change is due to the proceeds we received from the sale of equipment in 2006.

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $327,856 for the nine month period ended December 31, 2007, as compared to net cash used in financing activities totaled $850,533 for the nine month period ended December 31, 2006. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities is mainly attributable by the additional bank borrowings for the first nine months of 2007 when compared to the same period of 2006.

Revenues

We had total revenues of $14,840,870 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007, which was an increase compared to $14,728,655 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006.

Operating Expenses

Our total operating expenses for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 were $1,468,467 and $1,789,632, respectively. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease in Selling, General and Administrative expenses. The principal components of operating expenses are staff related costs, freight and delivery charges, and other selling and general administrative expenses. The decrease from fiscal 2006 to 2007 was primarily due to the decrease in freight and delivery charges of approximately $110,000, and the decrease in general administrative expenses of approximately $100,000. The decrease in operating expenses was also contributed by a bad debt provision of $98,116 made in the year of 2006, whereas no such provision was made in the year of 2007.

Interest Expense

Accounts payable, which typically operates on a two to three-week cycle, decreased from $686,287 as of March 31, 2006 to $277,574 as of March 31, 2007. This decrease was primarily because more creditor payments were made near fiscal year end of 2007 when compared to 2006.

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
 
No Public Market for Common Stock
 
There is presently no public market for our common stock. We intend to request a registered broker-dealer to apply to have our common stock listed on the OTC Bulletin Board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. However, we can provide no assurance that our shares will be traded on the OTC Bulletin Board or, if traded, that a public market will materialize.
 
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or quotation system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of Securities' laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type, size and format, as the Securities and Exchange Commission shall require by rule or regulation. The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with: (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a suitably written statement.
 
 
Holders of Our Common Stock
 
As of April 1, 2008, we had 63 holders of record of our common stock.
 
51

 
Rule 144 Shares
 
Other than the shares being offered for resale by the Selling Stockholders named in this prospectus, none of shares of our common stock are available for resale to the public. In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person who has beneficially owned shares of a company's common stock for at least one year is entitled to sell within any three month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:
 
1.     
One percent of the number of shares of the company's common stock then outstanding; or
 
2.     
The average weekly trading volume of the company's common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on form 144 with respect to the sale.
 
Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about the company.
 
Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not one of the company's affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least two years, is entitled to sell shares without complying with the manner of sale, public information, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
 
Management Compensation
 
Freedom 3, Inc.
 
Freedom has not paid any salary, bonus or other compensation to its sole officer and director since its inception nor did it have any compensation arrangement with such officers and director.
 
Stock Option Grants
 
No stock options or stock appreciation rights under any stock incentive plans or otherwise were granted to Freedom’s sole executive officer and director since its inception.
 
 
CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
 
Effective as of October 25, 2007, the Company dismissed Conner & Associates, PC (“Conner”) as its independent accountants. Conner had previously been engaged as the principal accountant to audit Freedom 3’s financial statements. The reason for the dismissal of Conner is that, upon the consummation of the transaction on October 25, 2007, (i) the former stockholders of SWL owned a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock and (ii) Freedom 3’s primary business unit became the business previously conducted by SWL. It was more practical that SWL’s independent auditors be engaged, going forward.
 
52


The decision to change accountants was approved by the Company’s board of directors on October 25, 2007.

The report of Conner on Freedom 3’s financial statements for the period from June 27, 2006 (inception) to June 30, 2006 contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. Their report contained a going concern opinion on the financial statements as of June 30, 2006 because Freedom 3 was a “blank check” company with no assets and the sole stockholder of Freedom 3 was not legally obligated to fund the activities of the company.

From June 27, 2006 through October 25, 2007, there were no disagreements between Freedom 3 and Conner on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Conner, would have caused it to make reference to the matter in connection with the firm’s reports.

The Company made the contents of this Current Report on Form 8-K available to Conner & requested it to furnish a letter addressed to the SEC as to whether it agrees or disagrees with, or wishes to clarify our expression of our views, or wished to provide any additional information. A copy of Conner’s letter to the SEC is included as Exhibit 16.1 to this Registration Statement.

On October 25, 2007, the Company engaged Dominic K.F. Chan & Co (“Dominic”) as its new, independent registered public accounting firm. The appointment of Dominic was approved by our board of directors. During our two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim periods through December 31, 2007, SWL did not consult Dominic regarding either: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements; or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-B.

Prior to engaging Dominic, the Company had not consulted Dominic regarding the application of accounting principles to any specified transaction, completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements.

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN THE PROSPECTUS 
 
ITEM 24. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
 
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions for indemnification of our officers and directors, and under certain circumstances, our employees and other persons. The bylaws require us to indemnify such persons to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Each such person will be indemnified in any proceeding if such person acted in good faith and in a manner that such person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, our best interests. The indemnification would cover expenses, including attorney's fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement. Our bylaws also provide that we may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any of our present or past directors or officers insuring against any liability asserted against such person incurred in their capacity as a director or officer or arising out of such status, whether or not we would have the power to indemnify such person.

We have no other indemnification provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or otherwise specifically providing for indemnification of directors, officers and controlling persons against liability under the Securities Act.

ITEM 26.  RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
 
On June 27, 2006, Freedom issued 100,000 shares of its common stock to Getting You There, LLC, or GYT, an entity owned by Virginia K. Sourlis, Esq., the sole officer and director of Freedom, for aggregate purchase price of $2,100. The Company sold these shares of common stock under the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, afforded the company under Section 4(2) and Regulation D promulgated thereunder due to the fact that the issuance did not involve a public offering and in light of fact that Ms. Sourlis is an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Act. On October 25, 2007, we redeemed all of the 100,000 shares from GYT in exchange for 300,000 shares of the resultant issuer’s common stock after the merger.
 
55


In connection with its merger with SWL, on October 25, 2007, Freedom issued 350 shares of its common stock for each share of common stock held by stockholders of SWL of which 2,330,200 are being registered by the Selling Stockholders listed in this Registration Statement. The company issued these shares under the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, afforded the company under Section 4(2) and Regulation S promulgated thereunder due to the fact that the issuance did not involve a public offering and the investors were non-US residents.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
SOUND WORLDWIDE LIMITED

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Sound Worldwide Limited and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2007 and 2006 and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity and other comprehensive income, and cash flows for the years ended March 31, 2007 and 2006. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2007 and 2006 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Summary of principal accounting policies

Basis of presentation and consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

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

The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the years are included in the consolidated income statement from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal.

The Company also evaluates consolidation of entities under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No.46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (FIN 46). FIN 46 requires management to evaluate whether an entity or interest is a variable interest entity and whether the Company is the primary beneficiary. Consolidation is required if both of these criteria are met. The Company does not have any variable interest entities requiring consolidation.

Summary of principal accounting policies (Cont’d)

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 year. These accounts and estimates include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivable, deferred income taxes and the estimation on useful lives of plant and equipment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash, deposits in banks and other highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition. These investments are carried at cost, which approximates market value.

Trade accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at original amount less allowance made for doubtful receivables, if any, based on a review of all outstanding amounts at the year end. An allowance is also made when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to original terms of receivables. Bad debts are written off when identified. The Group extends unsecured credit to customers in the normal course of business and believes all accounts receivable in excess of the allowances for doubtful receivables to be fully collectible. The Group does not accrue interest on trade accounts receivable.

Inventory

Inventories, which primarily consist of yarns, denim fabrics, garments and other textile materials and products, are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method. Write down of potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory is recorded based on management’s assumptions about future demand and market conditions.

Summary of principal accounting policies (Cont’d)

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost represents the purchase price of the asset and other costs incurred to bring the asset into its existing use. Maintenance, repairs and betterments, including replacement of minor items, are charged to expense; major additions to physical properties are capitalized.

Depreciation of property and equipment is calculated on a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives are as follows:-

Office unit
   
5 years
 
Machinery
   
5 years
 
Furniture and office equipment
   
5 years
 
Motor vehicles
   
5 years
 

Upon sale or disposition, the applicable amounts of asset cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the net amount less proceeds from disposal is charged or credited to income.

Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (“SFAS No. 144”), long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale are presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.

No impairment of long-lived assets was recognized for the year presented.

Revenue recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue when the following fundamental criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) our price to the customer is fixed or determinable and (iv) collection of the resulting accounts receivable is reasonably assured. These criteria are usually met at the time of product shipment. The Company does not recognize revenue until all customer acceptance requirements have been met and no significant obligations remain, when applicable. Customer purchase orders and/or contracts are generally used to determine the existence of an arrangement. Shipping documents are used to verify product delivery. The Company assesses whether a price is fixed or determinable based upon the payment terms associated with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment. The Company assesses the collectibility of the accounts receivable based primarily upon the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by credit checks and analysis, as well as the customer’s payment history.

Revenue recognition (Cont’d)

Sales of goods represent the invoiced value of goods, net of sales returns, trade discounts and allowances. The Company records reductions to revenue for estimated product returns and pricing adjustments in the same period that the related revenue is recorded. The amount of these reductions is based on historical sales returns, analysis of credit memo data, and other factors known at the time. The amounts of reductions to revenue were $987 and $2,798 for the years ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 respectively.

Shipping and handling fees and costs

Costs incurred by the Group for shipping and handling, including costs paid to third-party transportation companies, to transport and deliver products to customers, are included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses”. Shipping and handling fees and costs amounted to $183,879 and $294,521 for the years ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 respectively.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Comprehensive income

Other comprehensive income refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under U.S. GAAP are included in comprehensive income but are excluded from net income as these amounts are recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity. The Company’s other comprehensive income represented foreign currency translation adjustment.

Foreign currency translation

The functional currency of the Group is Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”). The Group maintains its financial statements in the functional currency. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet dates.

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchanges rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods.

In translating the financial statements of the Company from its functional currency into its reporting currency of United States dollars, balance sheet accounts are translated using the closing exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date and income and expense accounts are translated using an average exchange rate prevailing during the reporting period. Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining net income but are included in cumulative other comprehensive income (loss), a component of stockholders’ equity.

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding is adjusted to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued. 

Commitments and contingencies
 
Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonable estimated.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (“SFAS 154”), which changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. The statement requires retrospective application to prior period financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless impracticable to do so. It also requires that a change in the depreciation, amortization, or depletion method for long-lived non-financial assets be accounted as a change in accounting estimate, effected by a change in accounting principle. Accounting for error corrections and accounting estimate changes will continue under the guidance in APB Opinion 20, “Accounting Changes”, as carried forward in this pronouncement. The statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.
 
In September 2005, the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) issued EITF Issue No. 04-13, Accounting for Purchases and Sales of Inventory with the Same Counterparty. EITF 04-13 provides guidance as to when purchases and sales of inventory with the same counterparty should be accounted for as a single exchange transaction. EITF 04-13 also provides guidance as to when a nonmonetary exchange of inventory should be accounted for at fair value. EITF 04-13 will be applied to new arrangements entered into, and modification or renewals of existing arrangements occurring after January 1, 2007. The Group does not expect the adoption of EITF 04-13 will have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements.
 
In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Company’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Group does not expect that the adoption of FIN 48 will have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements.
 
In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (“SAB No 108”). SAB No. 108 provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a current year misstatement. Under SAB No. 108, the Group should quantify errors using both a balance sheet and income statement approach (“dual approach”) and evaluate whether either approach results in a misstatement that is material when all relevant quantitative and qualitative factors are considered. The adoption of SAB 108 did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recent accounting pronouncement (Con’d)
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”), which defines fair value, provides a framework for measuring fair value, and expands the disclosures required for fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to other accounting pronouncements that require fair value measurements and does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and is required to be adopted by the Group in fiscal year 2008. Although the Group will continue to evaluate the application of SFAS No. 157, management does not currently believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS No 159). SFAS No. 159 permits an entity to elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for many financial assets and liabilities. Entities electing the fair value option would be required to recognize changes in fair value in earnings. Entities electing the fair value option are required to distinguish, on the face of the statement of financial position, the fair value of assets and liabilities for which the fair value option has been elected and similar assets and liabilities measured using another measurement attribute. The Group is required to adopt SFAS No 159 beginning on January 1, 2008. The adjustment to reflect the difference between the fair value and the carrying amount would be accounted for as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the date of initial adoption. Although the Group will continue to evaluate the provisions of SFAS No. 159, management currently does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Subsequent event

On October 25, 2007, Freedom 3, Inc. a Delaware corporation (“Freedom 3”), sold one share of its common stock to the Company for $1.00 and redeemed 100,000 shares of its common stock from its prior sole stockholder constituting 100% of Freedom 3’s issued and outstanding shares of its common stock prior to the sale, resulting in the Company owning 100% of Freedom 3. After the sale and redemption by Freedom 3, Sound Worldwide and Freedom 3 entered into a Share Exchange Agreement, dated October 25, 2007, or Exchange Agreement, pursuant to which each issued and outstanding share of the Company’s common stock and preferred stock was converted into 350 shares of Freedom 3’s common stock and preferred stock, respectively, and all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common and preferred stock were retired and cancelled, resulting in Freedom 3 owning 100% of the Company (the “Exchange”). This resulted in the stockholders of the Company to become stockholders of Freedom 3. The previous stockholder of Freedom was then issued 300,000 shares of Freedom 3 as agreed previously. The one share of Freedom’s common stock held by the Company was then cancelled and the Company sold one share of its common stock to Freedom 3, which resulted in Freedom 3 owning 100% of the Company. Freedom 3 then changed its name to Sound Worldwide Holdings, Inc.

For accounting purposes, the Exchange has been treated as an acquisition of Freedom 3 by the Company and as a recapitalization of the Company (i.e. a "reverse acquisition"), in which the Company was deemed to be the accounting acquirer. As a result of the Exchange, the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company for periods prior to the date of the transaction are those of Sound Worldwide Limited, as the accounting acquirer, and all references to the consolidated financial statements of the Company apply to the historical financial statements of Sound Worldwide Limited prior to the transaction and the consolidated financial statements of the Company subsequent to the transaction. The Company’s shares have been restated retroactively to reflect the share exchange ratio as at the date of the transaction in a manner similar to a stock split. The related common stock, additional paid-in capital, earnings per share and weighted average number of shares data in the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of shareholders' equity for the years ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 have been restated retroactively.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein. The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended March 31, 2007, included in the registration statement on Form SB-2, as amended. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports.

Results of operations for the interim periods are not indicative of annual results.

Note 2 - Share Exchange between Freedom 3, Inc and Sound Worldwide Limited

On October 25, 2007, Freedom 3, Inc. a Delaware corporation (“Freedom 3”), sold one share of its common stock to Sound Worldwide Limited (“Sound Worldwide” or “SWL”) for $1.00 and redeemed 100,000 shares of its common stock from its prior sole stockholder constituting 100% of Freedom 3’s issued and outstanding shares of its common stock prior to the sale, resulting in Sound Worldwide owning 100% of Freedom 3. After the sale and redemption by Freedom 3, Sound Worldwide and Freedom 3 entered into a Share Exchange Agreement, dated October 25, 2007, or Exchange Agreement, pursuant to which each issued and outstanding share of Sound Worldwide’s common stock and preferred stock was converted into 350 shares of Freedom 3’s common stock and preferred stock, respectively, and all of the issued and outstanding shares of Sound Worldwide’s common and preferred stock were retired and cancelled, resulting in Freedom 3 owning 100% of Sound Worldwide (the “Exchange”). This resulted in the stockholders of Sound Worldwide to become stockholders of Freedom 3. The previous stockholder of Freedom was then issued 300,000 shares of Freedom 3 as agreed previously. The one share of Freedom’s common stock held by Sound Worldwide was then cancelled and Sound Worldwide sold one share of its common stock to Freedom 3, which resulted in Freedom 3 owning 100% of Sound Worldwide. Freedom 3 then changed its name to Sound Worldwide Holdings, Inc.

For accounting purposes, the Exchange has been treated as an acquisition of Freedom 3 by Sound Worldwide and as a recapitalization of Sound Worldwide (i.e. a "reverse acquisition"), in which Sound Worldwide was deemed to be the accounting acquirer. As a result of the Exchange, the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company for periods prior to the date of the transaction are those of Sound Worldwide, as the accounting acquirer, and all references to the consolidated financial statements of the Company apply to the historical financial statements of Sound Worldwide prior to the transaction and the consolidated financial statements of the Company subsequent to the transaction. The Company’s shares have been restated retroactively to reflect the share exchange ratio as at the date of the transaction in a manner similar to a stock split. The Company currently has a total of 20,000,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
 
F-27


Prior the Exchange, Freedom 3 was a reporting shell company with no operations and nominal assets.

The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Sound Worldwide, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries listed below, are principally engaged in manufacturing and trading of denim fabrics and garments. Sound Worldwide owns production plants in Hong Kong and the People’s Republic of China and its customers are mainly in the United States, Europe and Japan.

The following summarizes the organizational history and location of the subsidiaries of the Company:

·
Sound Worldwide was formed in July 1999 and it currently is the holding company for Asian Point Investment Limited and Best Allied Industrial Limited.
 
·
Best Allied Industrial Limited (“Best Allied”), which has its production based in the Kwun Tong District of Hong Kong, was formed in April 1997.
 
·
Asian Point Investment Limited (“Asian Point”), which leases Heyuan Yuenya Weaving Factory in Heyuan, Guangdong Province, was registered in June 1999.

Note 3 - Summary of Principal Accounting Policies

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management uses its best judgment in valuing these estimates and may, as warranted, solicit external professional advice and other assumptions believed to be reasonable. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may impact the comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. The following critical accounting policies, some of which are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions and estimates, affect the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when the following fundamental criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) our price to the customer is fixed or determinable and (iv) collection of the resulting accounts receivable is reasonably assured. These criteria are usually met at the time of product shipment. The Company does not recognize revenue until all customer acceptance requirements have been met and no significant obligations remain, when applicable. Customer purchase orders and/or contracts are generally used to determine the existence of an arrangement. Shipping documents are used to verify product delivery. We assess whether a price is fixed or determinable based upon the payment terms associated with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment. We assess the collectibility of our accounts receivable based primarily upon the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by credit checks and analysis, as well as the customer’s payment history.
 
F-28


Sales of goods represent the invoiced value of goods, net of sales returns, trade discounts and allowances. The Company records reductions to revenue for estimated product returns and pricing adjustments in the same period that the related revenue is recorded. The amount of these reductions is based on historical sales returns, analysis of credit memo data, and other factors known at the time.

Trade accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at original amount less allowance made for doubtful receivables, if any, based on a review of all outstanding amounts at the year end. An allowance is also made when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to original terms of receivables. Bad debts are written off when identified. Asian Point and Best Allied extend unsecured credit to customers in the normal course of business and believes all accounts receivable in excess of the allowances for doubtful receivables to be fully collectible. They do not accrue interest on trade accounts receivable.

Inventory

Inventories, which primarily consist of yarns, denim fabrics, garments and other textile materials and products, are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method. Write down of potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory is recorded based on management’s assumptions about future demand and market conditions.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”), which defines fair value, provides a framework for measuring fair value, and expands the disclosures required for fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies to other accounting pronouncements that require fair value measurements and does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and is required to be adopted by the Company in fiscal year 2008. Although the Company will continue to evaluate the application of SFAS No. 157, management does not currently believe the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
F-29

 
In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS No 159). SFAS No. 159 permits an entity to elect fair value as the initial and subsequent measurement attribute for many financial assets and liabilities. Entities electing the fair value option would be required to recognize changes in fair value in earnings. Entities electing the fair value option are required to distinguish, on the face of the statement of financial position, the fair value of assets and liabilities for which the fair value option has been elected and similar assets and liabilities measured using another measurement attribute. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No 159 beginning on January 1, 2008. The adjustment to reflect the difference between the fair value and the carrying amount would be accounted for as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the date of initial adoption. Although the Company will continue to evaluate the provisions of SFAS No. 159, management currently does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Company’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company does not expect that the adoption of FIN 48 will have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements.

There is no dilution effect to the basic (loss)/earnings per share of common stock for the periods presented.

Note 6 - Comprehensive (Loss)/Income

Other comprehensive (loss)/income refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under U.S. GAAP are included in comprehensive (loss)/income but are excluded from net (loss)/income as these amounts are recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity. The Company’s other comprehensive (loss)/income represented foreign currency translation adjustment.

Re:

Dear Sirs:

We have acted as securities counsel to Sound Worldwide Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the preparation of a Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended (the "Registration Statement"), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), to register an aggregate of 2,330,200 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company registered on behalf of the Selling Stockholders named in the Registration Statement.

In our capacity as counsel to the Company, we have reviewed the articles of formation and by-laws, as amended, of the Company and resolutions adopted by the Company's Board of Directors, the Registration Statement, the exhibits to the Registration Statement and such other records, documents, statutes and decisions, as we have deemed relevant in rendering this opinion.

As to any facts material to this opinion, we have relied upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company.
 


We are admitted to practice in the States of New Jersey, New York and Washington, DC and we express no opinion as to any matters governed by any laws other than the laws of the State of New Jersey, New York, Washington, DC, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the Federal laws of the United States of America. The reference and limitation to “Delaware General Corporation Law” includes the statutory provisions and all applicable provisions of the Delaware Constitution and reported judicial decisions interpreting these laws.

Based on, and subject to, the foregoing and upon representations and information provided by the Company or its officers and directors, it is our opinion as of the date hereof that:

 
1.
The Company’s Articles validly authorize the issuance of the Shares registered in the Registration Statement; and
