SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

We have made statements in this annual report that constitute forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements about our plans, objectives, expectations, assumptions or future events. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “we believe,” “we intend,” “may,” “should,” “could” and similar expressions. These statements involve estimates, assumptions, known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Examples of forward-looking statements include:

 

   

projections of revenue, earnings, capital structure and other financial items;

 

   

statements of our plans and objectives;

 

   

statements regarding the capabilities and capacities of our business operations;

 

   

statements of expected future economic performance; and

 

   

assumptions underlying statements regarding us or our business.

The ultimate correctness of these forward-looking statements depends upon a number of known and unknown risks and events. Many factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements. Consequently, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to update this forward-looking information. Nonetheless, the Company reserves the right to make such updates from time to time by press release, periodic report or other method of public disclosure without the need for specific reference to this Report. No such update shall be deemed to indicate that other statements not addressed by such update remain correct or create an obligation to provide any other updates.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion contains, in addition to historical information, forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those described herein.

Overview

We have been focused on the development and distribution of medical devices since our inception, and we began developing our respiratory and oxygen homecare business in 2006. We design, develop and market our branded products in China. We import the majority of the products and medical components we sell to our customers. We design and develop some of the medical components that are part of the branded products to be distributed. Some of these medical components are manufactured by contractors in China because we do not have a manufacturing facility. Most of our branded products we sell require light assembly.

In addition to our branded products, we also serve as a distributor of products designed and manufactured by other companies. We sell products from IMD (Italy), Timesco (UK), ResMed (Australia) and JMS (Japan).

We sell products primarily to distributors; however, we also sell products directly to hospitals, clinics and government health bureaus. We continually seek to broaden our market reach by introducing new and more advanced products and new product lines that address different end-user populations.

For the past two fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009, our total revenues amounted to approximately $9.41 million and $12.37 million, respectively. Our revenues are subject to value added tax (“VAT”), sales returns and trade discounts .We deduct these amounts from our gross revenues to arrive at our total revenues. Our net income attributable to Dehaier for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2009 was $0.92 million and $2.67 million, respectively.

Revenues

Our total revenues are derived from products we provide in our three product lines, (i) Medical Devices (ii) Respiratory and Oxygen Homecare Products and (iii) Technical Service Products. We are currently operating in one business segment for all of our products we distribute.

Medical Devices – Our Branded and Distributed Products

We derive revenues from our medical devices product line from the sale of C-arm X-ray systems, anesthesia machines, patient monitors and general hospital products. Our medical device line is our largest business line of products and has the most extensive market penetration of our three product lines. We anticipate that we will continue to experience revenue growth in our medical devices line as we further penetrate the market through the development and introduction of new advanced product offerings.

Respiratory and Oxygen Homecare Products – Our Branded and Distributed Products

We derive revenues in our respiratory and oxygen homecare line from sales of oxygen concentrators, CPAP devices, portable sleep screening and diagnostic devices and thermotherapy devices. We anticipate that, on a percentage basis, net revenues in our respiratory and oxygen homecare product line will increase more rapidly than total net revenues in the near term, as we introduce new and more advanced products in this product line. We expect to increase our market distribution in the respiratory and oxygen homecare market in China and to enter the international market through the use of distributors as well as through our direct sales platform.

Technical Service Products – Our Branded Products

We derive revenues in our technical service products line from sales of our air compressors and ventilator trolleys. We anticipate continued growth in revenues from our technical service products as we further penetrate this market by increasing the number of our distributors and maintaining a competitive pricing model.

Our ability to increase our revenues depends in large part on our ability to (i) increase the market penetration of our existing products, (ii) successfully identify, develop, introduce and commercialize, in a timely and cost-effective manner, new and upgraded products and (iii) enter into international markets in the future. Generally, we choose to devote our resources to product development efforts that we believe are commercially feasible, can generate significant revenues and margins and can be introduced into the market quickly.

Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations – Generally

We believe the most significant factors that directly or indirectly affect our sales revenues and net income are:

 

   

global economic conditions;

 

   

the changes in China’s macro-economic environment and healthcare-related government strategies and policies;

 

   

the level of acceptance of our products among hospitals and other healthcare facilities;

 

   

our ability to attract and retain distributors, key customers and our direct sales force;

 

   

new product introductions by us and our competitors; and

 

   

Our ability to price our products at levels that provide favorable margins.

Operating Costs and Expenses

Our operating costs and expenses consist of cost of revenues, general and administrative expenses, selling expenses and other expenses. Our total operating costs and expenses decreased as a percentage of our total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to the year ended December 31, 2008, primarily due to increased economies of scale and an increase in revenue. The following table sets forth the components of our costs and expenses both in U.S. dollar amounts (in thousands) and as a percentage of total net revenues for the periods indicated.

Cost of revenues

Cost of revenues primarily includes wages, parts for assembly, handling charges, and other expenses associated with the assembly and distribution of product. While our costs of revenues may decrease as a percentage of our total revenues due to economics of scale, our total costs of revenues are expected to increase in absolute dollars as our revenues grow.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits and related costs for our administrative personnel and management, fees and expenses of our outside advisers, including legal, audit and valuation expenses, expenses associated with our administrative offices and the depreciation of equipment used for

Table of Contents

administrative purposes. We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase, both on an absolute basis and as a percentage of revenue, as we hire additional personnel and incur costs related to the anticipated growth of our business. In addition, we expect to incur additional general and administrative expenses associated being a public company.

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses consist primarily of compensation and benefits for our sales and marketing staff, expenses for promotional, advertising, travel and entertainment activities, lease payments for our sales offices, and depreciation expenses related to equipment used for sales and marketing activities. Going forward, we expect our selling expenses to increase, both on an absolute basis and as a percentage of revenue, as we increase our efforts to promote our products, especially our new respiratory and oxygen homecare products.

Tax Matters Applicable to Our Company

Generally

Dehaier is a tax-exempt company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands. BDL and BTL were incorporated in the PRC and are governed by PRC laws. DHK is subject to Hong Kong profits tax rate.

Our company pays PRC enterprise income taxes, value added taxes and business taxes in China for revenues from BDL and is governed by British Virgin Islands tax laws as to Dehaier.

British Virgin Islands Tax

We are exempt from all provisions of the Income Tax Act of the British Virgin Islands, including with respect to all dividends, interests, rents, royalties, compensation and other amounts payable by or to persons who are not resident in the British Virgin Islands. Capital gains realized with respect to any of our shares, debt obligations or other securities by persons who are not resident in the British Virgin Islands are also exempt from all provisions of the Income Tax Act of the British Virgin Islands. No estate, inheritance tax succession or gift tax rate, duty, levy or other charge is payable by persons who are not resident in the British Virgin Islands with respect to any of our shares, debt obligations, or other securities. No stamp duty is payable in the British Virgin Islands in relation to a transfer of shares in a British Virgin Islands Business Company.

PRC Enterprise Income Taxes

PRC enterprise income tax is calculated based on the Enterprise Income Tax Law (the “EIT Law”). Under the EIT Law, a unified enterprise income tax rate of 25% and unified tax deduction standards will be applied equally to both domestic-invested enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises. Enterprises established prior to March 16, 2007 eligible for preferential tax treatment in accordance with the currently prevailing tax laws and administrative regulations shall, under the regulations of the State Council, gradually become subject to the EIT Law rate over a five-year transition period starting from the date of effectiveness of the EIT Law. The details of the transitional arrangement for the five-year period from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2012 applicable to enterprises approved for establishment prior to March 16, 2007, such as our company, were adopted in January 2008.

Furthermore, under the EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of the PRC with “de facto management bodies” within the PRC is considered a resident enterprise and will normally be subject to the enterprise income tax at the rate of 25% on its global income. If the PRC tax authorities subsequently determine that we or any of our non-PRC subsidiaries should be classified as a PRC resident enterprise, then such entity’s global income will be subject to PRC income tax at a tax rate of 25%. In addition, under the EIT Law, payments from BDL to us may be subject to a withholding tax. The EIT Law currently provides for a withholding tax rate of 20%. If Dehaier is deemed to be a non-resident enterprise, then it will be subject to a withholding tax at the rate of 10% on any dividends paid by its Chinese subsidiaries to Dehaier. In practice, the tax authorities typically impose the withholding tax rate of 10%, as prescribed in the implementation regulations; however, there can be no guarantee that this practice will continue as more guidance is provided by relevant government authorities. We are actively monitoring the proposed withholding tax and are evaluating appropriate organizational changes to minimize the corresponding tax impact.

The State Council issued the “Notice on Implementation of the Transition Period for Preferential Enterprise Income Tax,” or the “Transition Implementation Notice,” on December 26, 2007, which provides detailed rules on how preferential tax rates under previous income tax laws or regulations would transition to the uniform 25% EIT rate. In addition, entities that qualify as “high and new technology enterprises” will enjoy a 15% preferential tax rate

Table of Contents

under the EIT Law. The Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Finance and the State Administration of Taxation issued the “Measures on Qualification of High and New Technology Enterprises,” or “Circular 172,” on April 14, 2008, which provides detailed standards for “high and new technology enterprises.” In addition, according to the Notice on Prepayment of Enterprise Income Tax issued by the State Administration of Taxation, enterprises that have been certified as “high and new technology enterprises” shall pre-pay EIT at the rate of 25% temporarily until re-certified as “high and new technology enterprises” under Circular 172.

Under the current PRC laws, BDL and BTL are subject to EIT and VAT. BDL was classified as a high and new technology company and operates in an approved economic-technological development area. Given this classification, it was entitled to an EIT rate of 15%, compared to the statutory rate of 30% for most companies in China. This classification reduced BDL’s EIT rate by 50% to 7.5% for the three calendar years ended December 31, 2007, 2008 and 2009.

PRC Value Added Tax

Pursuant to the Provisional Regulation of China on Value Added Tax and its implementing rules, all entities and individuals that are engaged in the businesses of sales of goods, provision of repair and placement services and importation of goods into China are generally subject to a VAT at a rate of 17% (with the exception of certain goods which are subject to a rate of 13%) of the gross sales proceeds received, less any VAT already paid or borne by the taxpayer on the goods or services purchased by it and utilized in the production of goods or provisions of services that have generated the gross sales proceeds.

PRC Business Tax

Companies in China are generally subject to business tax and related surcharges by various local tax authorities at rates ranging from 3% to 20% on revenue generated from providing services and income generated from the transfer of intangibles.

Critical Accounting Policies

Presentation in Accordance with US GAAP

We have prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). These accounting principles require us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions on the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the end of each fiscal period, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during each fiscal period. We continually evaluate these judgments and estimates based on our own historical experience, knowledge and assessment of current business and other conditions, our expectations regarding the future based on available information and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable.

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Dehaier, BDL, its majority-owned subsidiary, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, DHK as well as BTL. All significant inter-company transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

A group of shareholders, including the Chief Executive officer, holds more than 50% of the voting ownership interest of Dehaier, BDL and BTL. BTL is a variable interest entity, and BDL is the primary beneficiary. BTL owns a building which is pledged as collateral for BDL’s bank loans. In exchange, BDL loans money to BTL to finance its operations. BTL’s primary operation is to provide repairs and transportation services to BDL’s customers. Because of these arrangements, BDL is the primary beneficiary of BTL, as the entity that is most closely associated with BTL. Dehaier has included BTL in its consolidated financial statements through the consolidation with BDL since December 31, 2006. Dehaier, BDL and BTL were under common control until October 31, 2009, when each share of preferred share was converted into a common share. Because the chief executive officer held more than 50% of the voting ownership interest of each of Dehaier, BDL, BTL and DHK at December 31, 2006, the Company initially measured the assets, liabilities and non controlling interest of the variable interest entity at the amounts at which they were carried in the accounts of the reporting entity that controls the variable interest entity pursuant to FASB ASC 810-10.

On October 31, 2009, BDL reconsidered whether it is the primary beneficiary of BTL when Dehaier’s preferred stock was converted into common shares. While such conversion dilutes Mr. Chen’s interest in BDL such that BDL and BTL are not under common control after October 31, 2009, BDL still has the obligation to absorb the

Table of Contents

expected losses of BTL. BTL is still a variable interest entity because all of its activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of the reporting enterprise and its related parties. BDL is BTL’s only customer referral source. On March 3, 2010, BDL entered into a Loss Absorption Agreement memorializing the understanding that BDL would continue to loan money to BTL as needed to fund its working capital such that BDL would absorb BTL’s losses.

The carrying amount and classification of BTL’s assets and liabilities included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are as follows:

 

      December 31,
     2009    2008
     $    $

Total current assets

   240,195    392,431

Total assets

   1,330,139    1,573,073

Total current liabilities

   67,750    367,842

Total liabilities

   67,750    367,842

The accounts of BTL are consolidated in the accompanying financial statements pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10, “Consolidation”. As a VIE, BTL’s revenues are included in the Company’s service income, and its income from operations is consolidated with the Company’s. Because of the arrangements, the Company had a pecuniary interest in BTL that requires consolidation of the Company’s and BTL’s financial statements.

On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the transition rules within ASC 810-10-65, regarding accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates are adjusted to reflect actual experience when necessary. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory obsolescence, warranty obligation, impairment of long-lived assets and useful lives of property and equipment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and highly liquid investments which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use, and which have maturities of three months or less when purchased. Our company maintains uninsured cash and cash equivalents with various financial institutions mainly in the PRC and Hong Kong.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value. Accounts receivable terms typically are net 60-180 days from the end of the month in which services are provided or goods are delivered. Our typical trade receivable terms vary based on the type of customer. We general require 100% prepayment before delivering our products to individual clients. Our contract terms general require 10%-30% prepayment for our hospital and healthcare center clients, and the trade receivable term in contracts for those clients is generally between 60 and 90 days. Our contract terms generally require 10% prepayment from our distributor clients, and the trade receivable term in contracts for those clients is generally between 60 and 180 days. With the exception of the prepayments we require in some cases, our company generally does not require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. An allowance, if required, is based on a combination of historical experience, aging analysis, and an evaluation of the collectability of specific accounts.

Receivables are considered past due after 3 years and written off. Management has determined this write-off policy by reviewing the decrease in likelihood of collection as a function of time and concluded that collectability of accounts receivable after three years was significantly impaired compared with collectability prior to such time. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, an allowance for doubtful accounts has been provided based on historical experience and management’s analysis of performance and current aging of accounts receivable. Based on this analysis, management believes that its historical bad debt rates and long-term accounts receivable (over one year) are relatively low and that, as a result, the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements for current assets and current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

In 2008, the Company adopted ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value and a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements for both financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. This standard does not require any new fair value measurements, but discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flows) and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). For purposes of ASC 820-10-15, nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities would include all assets and liabilities other than those meeting the definition of a financial asset or financial liability as defined in ASC 820-10-15-15-1A. Management elected the deferral option available for one year for nonfinancial assets and liabilities as permitted by ASC 820-10.

On August 26, 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, to clarify how entities should estimate the fair value of liabilities under the FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2009-05 reduce potential ambiguity in financial reporting when measuring the fair value of liabilities. Therefore, preparers, investors, and other users of financial statements will have a better understanding of how the fair value of liabilities was measured, helping to improve consistency in the application of Topic 820. The FASB issued ASU 2009-05 as a result of expressed concern that there may be a lack of observable market information to measure the fair value of a liability. For example, in the hypothetical transfer of an asset subject to a restriction there will be no observable data available to measure the liability because it is restricted from being transferred. This guidance is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance.

Also in 2008, the Company decided not to elect the fair value option allowed by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 825-10 for its financial assets and liabilities.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and consists of assembled and unassembled parts relating to medical devices. The Company reviews its inventory annually for possible obsolete goods and to determine if any reserves are necessary. At December 31, 2008, no reserve for obsolescence was considered necessary. At December 31, 2009, the reserve for obsolescence was $52,989, and the provision is included in the operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may no longer be recoverable. When these events occur, the Company measures impairment by comparing the carrying value of the long-lived assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss, equal to the excess of the carrying amount over the fair market value of the asset, is recognized. Management has determined no impairment exists at the balance sheet dates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenues when all the followings conditions have been satisfied:

 

   

Persuasive evidence an arrangement exists;

Table of Contents

All revenues are based on firm customer orders with fixed terms and conditions. Because the products are assembled to the customers’ specification, there is no right of return. The Company does not provide its customers with price protection or cash rebates. For products which include software, the software is an off-the-shelf package and an integral part of the products being delivered. The Company does not provide any significant post-sale customer support services and does not provide customers with upgrades. The software is incidental to the product as a whole. For products that do not require installation, revenues are recognized when the products are delivered. For products that require installation, revenues are recognized when the installation is completed.

For all service income, the Company recognizes the revenue upon the completion of the repairs when the equipment has been returned to and accepted by the customers.

In the PRC, value added tax (VAT) of 17% of the invoice amount is collected in respect of the sales of goods on behalf of tax authorities. The VAT collected is not revenue of the Company; instead, the amount is recorded as a liability on the balance sheet until such VAT is paid to the authorities.

Service Income and Expense

Service income and expense represents activities related to repairs and transportation services provided for the customers by BTL.

Warranty Costs

The Company provides for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized. Warranty costs are included in general and administrative expenses. The Company’s warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates and material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting product failure. Should actual product failure rates, material usage or service delivery costs differ from the Company’s estimates, the Company may be required to revise its estimated product warranty liability. The term of the product warranty is generally twelve months.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year; and, (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. 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 the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company was not required to record any deferred tax assets or liabilities.

ASC 740-10 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition of a tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740-10, a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position taken or expected to be taken may be recognized only if it is “more likely than not” that the position is sustainable upon examination, based on its technical merits. The tax benefit of a qualifying position under ASC 740-10 would equal the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority having full knowledge of all the relevant information. A liability (including interest and penalties, if applicable) is established in the financial statements to the extent a current benefit has been recognized on a tax return for matters that are considered contingent upon the outcome of an uncertain tax position. Related interest and penalties, if any, are included as components of income tax expense and income taxes payable. The Company is awaiting resolution of certain complex tax issues and has not yet filed its 2008 and 2009 Value Added Tax (“VAT”) tax returns for some of its customers. However, all the potential VAT liabilities on these VAT returns were accrued and included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The implementation of ASC 740-10 resulted in no material liability for unrecognized tax benefits and no material change to the beginning retained earnings of the Company. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the statement of operations. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company did not incur any interest or penalties.

Results of Operations

Our limited operating history makes it difficult to predict future operating results. We believe that period-to-period comparisons of operating results should not be relied upon as indicative of future performance.

Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2009 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2008.

Revenues

Our total revenues increased by 31.4% from $9.41 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 to $12.37 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. The increase in revenues was due to the increased acceptance of our products among hospitals and other healthcare facilities as many of our end users such as hospitals became repeat customers when they needed new medical equipment. In addition, in 2009, we developed our distribution network in China, which led to greater market penetration and more robust growth for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Cost of Revenues

Our cost of revenues increased 26.62% from $5.93 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 to $7.51 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. Our cost of revenues grew in U.S. dollars as our revenues grew, but our gross margin increased largely because we were able to leverage a stronger relationship with an original equipment manufacturer, or OEM, supplier, and take advantage of economies of scale. We were able to purchase assembled products from this supplier for less than it would cost us to assemble them ourselves. As our business with this supplier grew, our gross margin subsequently increased.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses decreased by 20.75% from $2.41 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 to $1.91 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. This decrease was due to decrease in general and administrative and selling expenses, for the reasons described below.

Operating Expenses—General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits and related costs for our administrative personnel and management and expenses associated with our research and development and the registration of foreign exchange certificate.

Our general and administration expenses decreased by 17.42% from $1.32 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 to $1.09 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. This decrease was largely because our professional expenses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 were $0.31 million consisting primarily of audit fees relating to our 2006 and 2007 financial statements, compared with professional expenses for the same period in 2009 of $0.18 million. In addition, our meeting, entertainment and some miscellaneous expense decreased by about $0.10 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

However, we expect that our general and administration expenses will increase in the near term as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley Section 404 compliance and business expansion upon completion of this offering. Upon completion of this offering, we anticipate using a portion of the net proceeds to expand our marketing efforts in order to continue to grow our revenues in China and internationally. Among other strategies to expand our business, we plan to open new CECs (Customer Experience Center), in strengthen our market presence in China. These CECs give our potential customers an opportunity to experience our products first-hand in an environment that is similar to the environment in which they will use the products, whether that is a home or healthcare facility. See “Our Business – Our Strategies.”

Operating Expenses—Selling Expense

Our selling expense decreased by 27.83% from $0.97 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 to $0.7 million for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

 

10


Table of Contents

Our selling expense primarily consists of salaries and related expenses for personnel engaged in sales, marketing and customer support functions and costs associated with advertising and other marketing activities. Our selling expense decreased in both U.S. dollars and as a percentage of our total net revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, mainly due to exhibition expenses to promote our products both inside and outside China for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 that did not recur in 2009.

Operating Income

As a result of the foregoing, we generated an operating income of approximately $3.35 million in 2009, compared to approximately $1.5 million in 2008. Operating income increased 123.33% largely due to the increase of revenues and gross profit margin.

Taxation

Our income tax expense was approximately $0.53 million in 2009, compared to approximately $0.42 million in 2008. Our taxable income increased primarily due to increased revenues while our tax rate decreased. In 2008, the income tax rate applicable for BDL is 25%. While in 2009, BDL successfully reapplied and obtained such high technology certification. As a result, BDL uses a 15% income tax rate to calculate the income tax expense in 2009.

Net Income

As a result of the foregoing, we had net income of approximately $2.73 million in 2009, compared to approximately $0.98 million in 2008. After deduction of non-controlling interest in income, net income attributable to Dehaier was approximately $2.67 million and $0.92 million in 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows and Working Capital

We have financed our operations primarily through cash flows from operations and short-term borrowings. As of December 31, 2009, we had approximately $1.15 million in cash and cash equivalents. As a result of the total cash activities, net cash increased from $282,603 on December 31, 2008 to $1,151,721 on December 31, 2009. We believe that our currently available working capital of $6,314,428, including cash of $1,151,721, should be adequate to meet our anticipated cash needs and sustain our current operations for at least 12 months.

We are in the process of repaying our loan from International and Commercial Bank of China (“ICBC”), and our final payment of RMB 6,000,000 in principal is due on May 20, 2010. We are relying on our projected cash flow for such repayment, and we believe that such projected cash flow will be sufficient to repay the ICBC loan as it becomes due. We do expect, however, that the repayment of the ICBC loan will significantly decrease our working capital and materially decrease our liquidity generally. We believe, however, that the completion of this offering is likely to mitigate this decreased liquidity, as we have allocated 25% of the offering proceeds to our working capital needs. If we are unable to complete this offering or if our cash flow is insufficient to repay the ICBC loan as it becomes due, we may seek to refinance the ICBC loan. If we are unable to do so on terms that are satisfactory to us or at all, then our liquidity and capital resources may be significantly harmed. See “Risk Factors – We may be unable to pay our bank loan as it becomes due” and “– Repayment of the ICBC loan may significantly reduce our working capital and harm our liquidity.”

Currently available working capital, especially cash, may not be sufficient to fund our anticipated expansion or to repay our ICBC loan as it becomes due. In order to meet the working capital needs for our anticipated expansion, we may take the following actions: (i) continue to improve our collection of accounts receivable; (ii) if necessary, raise additional capital through sale of equity; and (iii) enter into new, or refinance existing, short- and/or long-term commercial loans. We cannot assure you that financing will be available in the amounts we need or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. The sale of additional equity securities, including convertible debt securities, would dilute our shareholders. The incurrence of debt would divert cash from working capital and capital expenditures to service debt obligations and could result in operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations and our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders. If we are unable to obtain additional equity or debt financing as required, our business, operations and prospects may suffer.

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1,789,967 for the year ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $802,964 net cash used in operating activities for the same period in 2008. The cash generated from operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2009 was approximately $2.59 million more than 2008 primarily due to the following:

(i) Increase of $1,751,541 in net income. Our net income increased because of a growth in both sales volume and gross margin in 2009.

(ii) Increase of $803,887 in inventory. We have purchased more inventory in 2009 to meet expected demand for our products in the future.

(iii) Increase of $1,429,001 in accounts receivable. The increase in accounts receivable is attributable to the growth in our revenues.

(iv) Increase of $1,941,250 in taxes payable. The increase is due to an increase in VAT because of increased sales subject to VAT and an increase in EIT due to an increase in taxable income.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $914,517, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $637,811 for the year ended December 31, 2008. The cash used in investing activities was mainly attributable to capital expenditures for the purchase of new equipment.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2009 was nil mainly because we did not incur any new bank loan or other financing activities. Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2008 totaled $231,948. The cash provided by financing activities for year ended December 31, 2008 was attributable to proceeds received from a bank loan.

Rent expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $56,788 and $32,011, respectively. Rent expense paid to the spouse of the chief executive officer for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $27,375 and $0, respectively.

Capital Expenditures

We made capital expenditures of approximately $0.92 million and $0.71 million in 2009 and 2008, respectively, representing 7.41%, 7.53%, of our total revenues, respectively. In the past, our capital expenditures were used to purchase machines for our assembly line. Our capital expenditures may increase in the near term as our business continues to grow and as we expand and improve our financial and accounting systems and infrastructure.

Off-Balance Sheet Commitments and Arrangements

We have not entered into any financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholder’s equity or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2009, the FASB issued a statement establishing the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of the authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental

entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. On the effective date of this statement, all then existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards were superseded.

In June 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to its Interpretation, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” The statement requires an entity to perform an analysis to determine whether the entity’s variable interest give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity by rationalizing characteristics that would give it power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity. The statement is effective for years beginning after November 15, 2009 and is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On January 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. The ASU reports on new disclosure requirements — and clarifications of existing requirements — under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Subtopic 820-10 (originally issued as FAS 157). The new disclosure requirements apply to interim and annual reporting periods beginning after Dec. 15, 2009, with one exception: The new rules regarding purchases, sales, issuances and settlements associated with Level 3 measurements will be effective for fiscal years beginning after Dec. 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this accounting standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

Dehaier Medical Systems Limited

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Dehaier Medical Systems Limited and Affiliate as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated related statements of operations, cash flows and shareholders’ equity for the years then ended. Dehaier Medical Systems Limited and Affiliate management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Dehaier Medical Systems Limited and Affiliate as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

DEHAIER MEDICAL SYSTEMS LIMITED AND AFFILIATE

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

Dehaier Medical Systems Limited (“Dehaier”) was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands in 2003 as a limited liability company. Dehaier distributes and provides after-sale services for medical equipment in China mainly through its majority-owned subsidiary Beijing Dehaier Medical Technology Co. Limited (“BDL”) and its affiliate Beijing Dehaier Technology Limited (“BTL”). On October 23, 2003, Dehaier established a wholly-owned subsidiary in Hong Kong, De-haier Medical System (Hong Kong) Limited (“DHK”), (collectively, the “Company”). Both BDL and BTL were incorporated in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”). The Company distributes branded, proprietary medical equipment, such as sleep apnea machines, patient monitors, air compressors, and oxygen generators; moreover, standard product registration, product certification and quality management system have been established in the Company. ISO13485 industry standard has also already been passed. It also has the distribution rights for a number of international medical equipment suppliers for products including anesthesia equipment, patient monitors, mobile C-arm X-ray machines and other medical equipment accessories.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Dehaier, BDL, its majority-owned subsidiary, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, DHK as well as BTL. All significant inter-company transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

A group of shareholders, including the Chief Executive officer, holds more than 50% of the voting ownership interest of Dehaier, BDL and BTL. BTL is a variable interest entity, and BDL is the primary beneficiary. BTL owns a building which is pledged as collateral for BDL’s bank loans. In exchange, BDL loans money to BTL to finance its operations. BTL’s primary operation is to provide repairs and transportation services to BDL’s customers. Because of these arrangements, BDL is the primary beneficiary of BTL, as the entity that is most closely associated with BTL. Dehaier has included BTL in its consolidated financial statements through the consolidation with BDL since December 31, 2006. Dehaier, BDL and BTL were under common control until October 31, 2009, when each share of preferred share was converted into a common share. (see note 13). Because the chief executive officer held more than 50% of the voting ownership interest of each of Dehaier, BDL, BTL and DHK at December 31, 2006, the Company initially measured the assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interest of the variable interest entity at the amounts at which they were carried in the accounts of the reporting entity that controls the variable interest entity pursuant to FASB ASC 810-10.

On October 31, 2009, BDL reconsidered whether it is the primary beneficiary of BTL when Dehaier’s preferred stock was converted into common shares. While such conversion dilutes Mr. Chen’s interest in BDL such that BDL and BTL are not under common control after October 31, 2009, BDL still has the obligation to absorb the expected losses of BTL. BTL is still a variable interest entity because all of its activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of the reporting enterprise and its related parties. BDL is BTL’s only customer referral source. On March 3, 2010, BDL entered into a Loss Absorption Agreement memorializing the understanding that BDL would continue to loan money to BTL as needed to fund its working capital such that BDL would absorb BTL’s losses.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES-continued

The carrying amount and classification of BTL’s assets and liabilities included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets are as follows:

 

     December 31,
     2009    2008
     US$    US$

Total current assets

   240,195    392,431

Total assets

   1,330,139    1,573,073

Total current liabilities

   67,750    367,842

Total liabilities

   67,750    367,842

The accounts of BTL are consolidated in the accompanying financial statements pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10, “Consolidation”. As a VIE, BTL’s revenues are included in the Company’s service income, and its income from operations is consolidated with the Company’s. Because of the arrangements, the Company had a pecuniary interest in BTL that requires consolidation of the Company’s and BTL’s financial statements.

On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the transition rules within ASC 810-10-65, regarding accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates are adjusted to reflect actual experience when necessary. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory obsolescence, warranty obligation, impairment of long-lived assets and useful lives of property and equipment. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and highly liquid investments which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use, and which have maturities of three months or less when purchased. The Company maintains uninsured cash and cash equivalents with various financial institutions mainly in the PRC and Hong Kong.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value. Accounts receivable terms typically are net 60-180 days from the end of the month in which the services were provided. The company generally does not require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. An allowance, if required, is based on a combination of historical experience, aging analysis, and an evaluation of the collectibility of specific accounts. Receivables are considered past due after 3 years and written off.

Advances to Suppliers and Advances from Customers

The Company, as is the common practice in the PRC, will often pay advance payments to suppliers for unassembled parts, or receive advance payments from customers. Advances to suppliers were $1,511,540 and $1,798,887 as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Advances from customers were $174,253 and $230,394 as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES-continued

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements for current assets and current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

In 2008, the Company adopted ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value and a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements for both financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. This standard does not require any new fair value measurements, but discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flows) and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). For purposes of ASC 820-10-15, nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities would include all assets and liabilities other than those meeting the definition of a financial asset or financial liability as defined in ASC 820-10-15-15-1A. Management elected the deferral option available for one year for nonfinancial assets and liabilities as permitted by ASC-820-10.

On August 26, 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, to clarify how entities should estimate the fair value of liabilities under the FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2009-05 reduce potential ambiguity in financial reporting when measuring the fair value of liabilities. Therefore, preparers, investors, and other users of financial statements will have a better understanding of how the fair value of liabilities was measured, helping to improve consistency in the application of Topic 820. The FASB issued ASU 2009-05 as a result of expressed concern that there may be a lack of observable market information to measure the fair value of a liability. For example, in the hypothetical transfer of an asset subject to a restriction there will be no observable data available to measure the liability because it is restricted from being transferred. This guidance is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance.

Also in 2008, the Company decided not to elect the fair value option prescribed by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC-825-10 for its financial assets and liabilities.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and consists of assembled and unassembled parts relating to medical devices. The Company reviews its inventory annually for possible obsolete goods and to determine if any reserves are necessary. At December 31, 2008, no reserve for obsolescence was considered necessary. At December 31, 2009, the reserve for obsolescence was $52,989, and the provision is included in the operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are calculated on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:

 

Leasehold improvements    Shorter of the useful lives or the lease term
Building and land use rights    20-40 years
Machinery and equipment    10-15 years
Furniture and office equipment    5 years
Motor vehicles    5 years

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist primarily of purchased technology rights with finite lives and are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of these assets of 6 to 10 years and recognized in cost of revenues.

The Company reviews intangible assets for impairment in accordance with the provisions of ASC 360-10, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”

There was no impairment of intangible assets at the balance sheet dates. Although management believes the assumptions used in testing for impairment are reasonable, changes in any one of the assumptions could produce a significantly different result.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may no longer be recoverable. When these events occur, the Company measures impairment by comparing the carrying value of the long-lived assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss, equal to the excess of the carrying amount over the fair market value of the asset, is recognized. Management has determined no impairment exists at the balance sheet dates.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenues when all the followings conditions have been satisfied:

 

  * Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

 

  * Delivery and/or installation has occurred (e.g., risks and rewards of ownership have passed);

 

  * The sales price is fixed or determinable; and,

 

  * Collectibility is reasonably assured.

All revenues are based on firm customer orders with fixed terms and conditions. Because the products are assembled to the customers’ specification, there is no right of return. The Company does not provide its customers with price protection or cash rebates. For products which include software, the software is an off-the-shelf package and an integral part of the products being delivered. The Company does not provide any significant post-sale customer support services and does not provide customers with upgrades. The software is incidental to the product as a whole. For products that do not require installation, revenues are recognized when the products are delivered. For products that require installation, revenues are recognized when the installation is completed.

For all service income, the Company recognizes the revenue upon the completion of the repairs when the equipment has been returned to and accepted by the customers.

In the PRC, value added tax (VAT) of 17% of the invoice amount is collected in respect of the sales of goods on behalf of tax authorities. The VAT collected is not revenue of the Company; instead, the amount is recorded as a liability on the balance sheet until such VAT is paid to the authorities.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues primarily includes wages to assemble parts and the costs of unassembled parts, handling charges, and other expenses associated with the assembly and distribution of product.

Service income and expense

Service income and expense represents activities related to repair and transportation service provided for the customers by BTL.

Foreign Currency Translation

The accounts of Dehaier, BDL, BTL and DHK are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). Dehaier’s functional currency is US dollars (“$”) while BDL and BTL maintain their accounts in Renminbi (“RMB”) and DHK maintains its currency in Hong Kong dollars (“HKD”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in US dollars. Foreign currency transactions are translated into US dollars using fixed exchange rates in effect at the time of the transaction. Generally foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. The foreign currency accounts of DHK, BDL and BTL are translated in accordance with ASC 830-10, “Foreign Currency Matters”. Assets and liabilities are translated at current exchange rates quoted by the People’s Bank of China at the balance sheet dates and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the periods. Resulting translation adjustments are recorded as other comprehensive income (loss) and accumulated as a separate component of equity in non-controlling interest.

Warranty Costs

The Company provides for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized. Warranty costs are included in general and administrative expenses. The Company’s warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates and material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting product failure. Should actual product failure rates, material usage or service delivery costs differ from the Company’s estimates, the Company may be required to revise its estimated product warranty liability. The term of the product warranty is generally twelve months. The warranty obligation was $178,755, $158,065 at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Warranty expense for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $120,587 and $150,382, respectively.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs relating to the development of new products and processes, including significant improvements and refinements to existing products, are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs were $ 82,164 and $ 87,660 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Expenses

Shipping and handling expenses of $ 62,566 and $ 68,135 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were included in the operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations, respectively.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were $19,962 and $52,677 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Earnings Per Share

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 260-10, “Earnings Per Share”. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to holders of common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the years. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common shares were exercised or converted into common shares. Convertible preferred shares are included in the computation of diluted earnings per share on an “if converted” basis, when the impact is dilutive.

The following table sets forth computation of basic and diluted weighted average share information:

 

     December 31,
     2009    2008

Weighted average number of common shares outstanding

   2,076,608    1,891,930

Value Added Tax

The Company reports revenues net of PRC’s value added tax for all the periods presented in the consolidated statements of operations.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 718-10, “Share-Based Payment Arrangement.” On December 7, 2009, the Company’s Board of Directors and shareholders have approved the creation of a share incentive plan to be implemented after the Company has completed its public offering. This plan will authorize the issuance of up to 10% of the number of shares outstanding after the Company has completed its public offering. Pursuant to the anticipated plan, the Company may issue options to purchase its common shares to employees and directors of the Company and its affiliates. The Company will fair value share-based awards to be granted under the new plan. Accordingly, compensation will be measured on the grant date using appropriate valuation models.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year; and, (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. 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 the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company was not required to record any deferred tax assets or liabilities.

ASC 740-10 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition of a tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740-10, a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position taken or expected to be taken may be recognized only if it is “more likely than not” that the position is sustainable upon examination, based on its technical merits. The tax benefit of a qualifying position under ASC 740-10 would equal the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority having full knowledge of all the relevant information. A liability (including interest and penalties, if applicable) is established in the financial statements to the extent a current benefit has been recognized on a tax return for matters that are considered contingent upon the outcome of an uncertain tax position. Related interest and penalties, if any, are included as components of income tax expense and income taxes payable. The Company is awaiting resolution of certain complex tax issues and has not yet filed its 2008 and 2009 Value Added Tax (“VAT”) tax returns for some of its customers. However, all the potential VAT liabilities on these VAT returns were accrued and included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

The implementation of ASC 740-10 resulted in no material liability for unrecognized tax benefits and no material change to the beginning retained earnings of the Company. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the statement of operations. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company did not incur any interest or penalties.

Income tax returns for the year prior to 2005 are no longer subject to examination by tax authorities.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2009, the FASB issued a statement establishing the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of the authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. On the effective date of this statement, all then existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards were superseded.

In June 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to its Interpretation, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.” The statement requires an entity to perform an analysis to determine whether the entity’s variable interest give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity by rationalizing characteristics that would give it power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity. The statement is effective for years beginning after November 15, 2009 and is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On January 21, 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-06, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. The ASU reports on new disclosure requirements — and clarifications of existing requirements — under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Subtopic 820-10 (originally issued as FAS 157). The new disclosure requirements apply to interim and annual reporting periods beginning after Dec. 15, 2009, with one exception: The new rules regarding purchases, sales, issuances and settlements associated with Level 3 measurements will be effective for fiscal years beginning after Dec. 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this accounting standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

On March 22, 2010, the founders of the Company placed an aggregate of 600,000 common shares of the Company into escrow. That being equal to 40% of the maximum number of shares to be sold in an initial public offering (“IPO”) until such time as the Company files its Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ending December 31, 2010, or the termination of the IPO without closing, if earlier. The shares in escrow (Make-Good Shares) will be accounted for as an element in the IPO and the Company will not recognize any compensation expense upon the return of such Make-Good Shares to the holders. To the extent the Company’s earnings per share for the year ending December 31, 2010 are less than $.80, the Company shall redeem, pro rata, such shares. Alternatively, if the closing price of the common shares is equal to at least 2.5 times of the IPO offering price for five trading days in any ten trading day period, then the Make-Good Shares will be returned to the founders. These shares are included as part of the calculation of the basic and diluted earning per share for all the periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

14. INCOME TAXES

British Virgin Islands

Dehaier is a tax-exempt company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands. BDL and BTL were incorporated in the PRC and are governed by the PRC laws.

Hong Kong

DHK is subject to Hong Kong profits tax at a rate of 17.5% on its assessable profits. No Hong Kong profits tax has been provided as the Company did not have any taxable profit that was earned in or derived from Hong Kong during the years presented.

PRC

BDL is entitled to a preferential tax rate of 15% as a “high technology” company, and is entitled to a three-year exemption from income taxes commencing in 2004, followed by a 50% reduction in tax rates for the succeeding three years.

In May 2008, PRC issued new standards for “high technology” companies and required the Company to update their certification. Dehaier did not get the updated certification in 2008. On May 18, 2009, the State Tax of the Beijing Changping District issued “the Notice to Tax Affairs” (Tax Notice [2009]7013) to cancel “Approved to relief the Enterprise Income Tax” act. The tax rate for BDL is 25% in 2008.

PRC government grants a preferential income tax rate of 15% to government-certified high technology companies, and under the new standard the period of validity for the certification of high technology companies is three years. In 2009, BDL updated its certification for “high technology” company. Therefore, BDL used a 15% income tax rate to calculate the income tax expense for year ended December 31 2009.

BTL is entitled to a preferential tax rate of 15% as a “high technology” company, and is entitled to a three-year exemption from income taxes commencing in 2002, followed by a 50% reduction in tax rates for the succeeding three years. The tax rate for BTL is 25% in 2008 and 2009.
