INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

KoBrite Corporation

Taipei, Taiwan

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of KoBrite Corp. and Subsidiary (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of China.

Accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of China vary in certain significant respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The application of the latter would have affected the determination of net loss and stockholders’ equity for the year ended December 31, 2006, to the extent summarized in Note 11.

KOBRITE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(In U.S. Dollars, Unless Stated Otherwise)

 

 

1.   ORGANIZATION

KoBrite Corporation was incorporated under the International Business Company Act (“IBC Act”) incorporated in the Mauritius in November 2004 as a venture among Bright LED Electronics Corporation of Taiwan (“Bright LED”), Kopin Corporation (“Kopin”) and Kopin Taiwan Corporation (“KTC”), and certain other private investors. The main activities of KoBrite Corporation are the manufacture and sale of chips for light emitting diode (“LED”) products. KoBrite Corporation’s subsidiary, KoBrite China Corporation (“KBC”), is located in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) and was incorporated in April 2005.

 

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of China (“ROC”). Under these principles, certain estimates and assumptions have been used for the allowance for doubtful accounts, allowance for loss on inventories, depreciation of property and equipment, impairment loss on property and equipment, loss on contingent liabilities, etc. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Significant accounting policies are summarized as follows:

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of KoBrite Corporation and KBC (collectively, the “Company”). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. In addition, the Company evaluates its relationships with other entities to ensure whether the entities in which the Company has a controlling interest are consolidated into the Company’s financial statements at the end of each fiscal year as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 5, “Accounting for Investments,” and SFAS No. 7, “Consolidated Financial Statements.”

Current and Noncurrent Assets and Liabilities

Current assets include cash and those assets held primarily for trading purposes or to be realized, sold or consumed within one year from the balance sheet date. All other assets such as property and equipment are classified as noncurrent. Current liabilities are obligations incurred for trading purposes or to be settled within one year from the balance sheet date. All other liabilities are classified as noncurrent.

Cash

Cash on hand is petty cash or cash available to draw from a bank deposit and financial assets that are expected to be converted to cash, sold, or consumed within three months from the balance sheet date.

Revenue Recognition, Trade Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Revenue from sales of goods is recognized when the Company has transferred to the customer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods, primarily upon shipment, because the earnings process has been completed and the economic benefits associated with the transaction have been realized or are realizable. Allowances for sales returns and others are generally recorded in the year the related revenue is recognized on the basis of past experience, management’s judgment, and relevant factors.

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts agreed between the Company and the customers for goods sold in the normal course of business. For trade receivables due within one year from the balance sheet date, as the nominal value of the consideration to be

 

6


received approximates its fair value and transactions are frequent, fair value of the consideration is not determined by discounting all future receipts using an imputed rate of interest.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined using the weighted-average method. Market value for raw material is based on replacement cost. Market value for work in process and finished goods is based on net realizable value.

Capitalized Internal Use Software Costs

Costs of computer software are amortized by using the straight-line method over five years.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of property and equipment are capitalized as part of the cost of those assets. Major additions and improvements to property and equipment are capitalized, while costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed currently.

The useful lives of assets are summarized as follows:

Leasehold improvements: 10 years

Machinery and equipment: 5 years

Other equipment: 3-5 years

Property and equipment still in use beyond their original estimated useful lives are further depreciated over their newly estimated useful lives. The related cost, accumulated depreciation, and accumulated impairment losses of an item of and equipment are derecognized from the balance sheet upon its disposal. Any gain or loss on disposal of the asset is included in nonoperating income or losses in the year of disposal.

Impairment of Assets

If the recoverable amount of an asset (mainly property and equipment) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is charged to earnings.

If an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased accordingly, but the increased carrying amount may not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in earnings.

Retirement Plan

In accordance with local regulations in the PRC, KBC has made a monthly cash contribution of a statutory percentage of salaries and wages to the local government and recognized such contribution as a current expense. The total amount of pension expense for the Company is $9,610 in 2006.

Income Tax

According to the Mauritius Tax Law, corporations registered under the IBC Act are exempted from Mauritius income tax.

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount more likely than not to be recovered.

 

7


Foreign Currency Transactions

The Company’s functional currency is the US dollar. The majority of the sales revenue was derived from foreign sales priced at the US dollar. As a result, the functional currency and reporting currency are denominated in the US dollars. KoBrite Corporation and KBC record transactions in their respective local currency. The translation from the applicable foreign currency assets and liabilities to the US dollar amounts is performed using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date except for non-monetary assets and stockholders’ equity, which are translated at historical exchange rates. Revenue and expense accounts are translated using average exchange rates during the year. Gains and losses resulting from such translations are recognized as nonoperating income or losses.

Foreign currency transactions are translated at the rates prevailing on the transaction dates. On the balance sheet, foreign currency receivables and payables are translated at the approximate market rate of exchange prevailing on that date. Gains or losses resulting from settlement or translation are recognized as nonoperating income or losses.

6.   INCOME TAXES

KoBrite Corporation is not subject to income or other taxes in Mauritius and KBC is subject to taxes of the jurisdiction where it is located. Pursuant to the PRC income tax laws prior to January 1, 2008, KBC was generally subject to Enterprise Income Taxes (“EIT”) at a statutory rate of 27%, which comprises 24% national income tax and 3% local income tax.

In March 2007, PRC government published Enterprise Income Tax Law, which unified the enacted income tax rate for domestic and foreign enterprises and was effective January 1, 2008. According to the new tax law, KBC will be forced into its first tax holiday starting 2008 regardless of its profit level, and the tax rate will change from the present EIT rate of 27% to the unified EIT rate of 25% unless KBC can obtain official approval for other tax credit.

In accordance with the tax legislations applicable to foreign investment enterprises, KBC is entitled to an exemption from PRC income tax for two years commencing from 2008 and a 50% relief from PRC income tax for the next three years. The tax holiday granted to the KBC is expected to expire in 2012.

11.   RECONCILIATION OF REPUBLIC OF CHINA GAAP TO UNITED STATES GAAP

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of China (“ROC GAAP”), which differ in the following respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”):

 

  a. Purchase price allocation

In December 2004, the Company entered into an Equipment Purchase Agreement under which the Company paid $7,500,000 to Kopin for certain equipment and the performance of research and training activities. The Company ascribed the entire $7,500,000 to the value of the equipment. Under US GAAP, a portion of the purchase price would have been ascribed to the research and training activities. The Company estimated that $1,500,000 of the purchase price would have been considered payment of research and training activities and based upon the period the research and training activities occurred, the Company would have recognized $650,000 of expense in the year ended December 31, 2005 and $850,000 in the year ended December 31, 2006 under US GAAP. As a result of the allocation of $1,500,000 of the purchase price to the research and training activities, the amount

 

11


allocated to equipment would have decreased and, accordingly, depreciation expense would have been less under US GAAP.

 

  b. Rent expense

The Company entered into a five year facilities lease under which the Company paid no rent for the first four months. Under US GAAP, this “free” rent period would be amortized over the entire lease period. Accordingly, the Company would have had more rent expense in the year ended December 31, 2005 and less in the year ended December 31, 2006.

The Company has incurred losses since inception and based upon the criteria established under US GAAP it could not recognize a deferred tax asset for its net operating loss carryforwards, accordingly, no tax benefit was recorded for the increase in the net loss of the Company under US GAAP.

The following reconciles consolidated net loss and stockholders’ equity under ROC GAAP as reported in the consolidated financial statements to the consolidated net loss and stockholders’ equity determined under US GAAP, giving effect to the differences listed above.

KOBRITE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2007

(in US dollars)

 

(1) Organization

KoBrite Corporation (“the Company”) was incorporated under the International Business Company Act (“IBC Act”) in Mauritius on November 30, 2004. The main activities of the Company is investment.

KoBrite China Corp. (“KBC”) was incorporated in April 2005 in the PRC. The main activities of KBC are the manufacture and sale of chips for Light Emitting Diode (LED) products. As of December 31, 2006, the Company owned 100% of KBC’s capital, amounting to $12,492,859.

The Company and KBC are consolidated in the accompanying consolidated financials statements and are jointly called “the Consolidated Company”.

As of December 31, 2007, the number of employees hired by the Consolidated Company was 172.

The accounting and reporting policies adopted by the Consolidated Company conform to the related financial accounting standards of “Business Entity Accounting Act: and of the “Regulation on Business Entity Accounting Handling” and accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of China. The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are as follows:

 

  (a) Principles of consolidation

Investees over which the Company has control power are consolidated into the Company’s financial statements at the end of every fiscal year. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

  (b) Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of China 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 date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

KOBRITE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Financial Statements

 

  (c) Foreign currency transactions

The Consolidated Company’s functional currency is the US dollar. The Company and its subsidiary record transactions in their respective local currencies. The translation from the applicable foreign currency assets and liabilities to the US dollar is performed using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date except for non-monetary assets and stockholders’ equity, which are translated at historical exchange rates, and revenue and expense accounts, which are translated using average exchange rates during the year. Gains and losses resulting from such translations are recognized as non-operating income or losses.

Foreign currency transactions are translated at the rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Foreign currency receivables and payables are translated at the approximate market rate of exchange prevailing on the balance sheet date. Gains or losses resulting from settlement or translation are recognized as non-operating income or losses.

 

  (d) Distinction between current and non-current assets and liabilities

Current assets are unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and other assets to be realized in cash, sold, or consumed (prepaid items) within 12 months of the balance sheet date. Current liabilities are obligations to be paid or settled within 12 months of the balance sheet date. All other assets or liabilities are classified as non-current.

 

  (e) Impairment of assets

The Consolidated Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any indication that an asset (individual asset or cash-generating unit) other than goodwill may have been impaired. If any such indication exists, the Consolidated Company estimates the recoverable amount of the asset and recognizes impairment loss for an asset whose carrying value is higher than the recoverable amount.

 

  (f) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined using the weighted-average method. Market value for raw material is based on replacement cost. Market value for work in process and finished goods is based on net realizable value.

 

  (g) Property and equipment

Property and equipment are stated at acquisition cost. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. If the property and equipment have reached the end of their estimated useful lives but are still in use, the Company will estimate the remaining useful lives and residual values, and depreciate the remaining costs using the same method. Depreciation on leasehold improvements is provided

KOBRITE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Financial Statements

 

using the straight-line method over the shorter of contract periods or estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Gains (loss) on the disposal of property and equipment are included in non-operating income (loss).

The useful lives of assets are summarized as follows:

1. Leasehold improvements: 10 years

2. Machinery and equipment: 5 years

3. Other equipment: 3~5 years

Property, plant and equipment not currently used in operations are transferred to idle assets. According to SFAS No. 1, property, plant and equipment not currently used in operations are no longer stated at the lower of carrying value or net realizable value. The cost, accumulated depreciation, and accumulated impairment of the original assets not currently used in operations are all transferred to idle assets and depreciated. Depreciation expenses of idle assets are included in non-operating expenses and losses.

 

  (h) Intangible assets

Effective from January 1, 2007, the Company adopted SFAS No. 37 “Intangible Assets”. In accordance with SFAS No. 37, other than an intangible asset acquired by way of a government grant, which should be measured at its fair value, an intangible asset shall be measured initially at cost. After initial recognition, an intangible asset shall be measured at its cost plus revaluation increment revalued in accordance with the laws, less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.

The depreciable amount of an intangible asset is determined by the original cost less its residual value. Amortization is provided for by using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets from the date that they are available for use. The cost of computer software for internal use is amortized by using the straight-line method over five years.

 

  (i) Revenue recognition

Revenue derived from product sales is recognized when products are shipped and the significant risks and rewards are transferred to the buyer.

 

  (j) Retirement plan

The major business of the Company is investment. No official employees were hired by it. In accordance with local regulations in the PRC, KBC has made a monthly cash contribution of a

KOBRITE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Financial Statements

 

statutory percentage of salaries and wages to local government and recognized it as current expenses.

 

  (k) Income tax

According to the Mauritius tax law, corporations registered under the IBC Act are exempted from Mauritius income tax.

Entities of the Consolidated Company file their income tax returns separately. The income tax expense of the Consolidated Company is the summation of the income tax expense of the Company and Subsidiary.

The Consolidated Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis, and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred tax assets to an amount more likely than not to be recovered.

 

  (l) Treasury stock

The Company accounts for the cost of purchasing its outstanding stock as “treasury stock”. A gain on the sale of treasury stock is credited to capital surplus – treasury stock. Losses are charged to capital surplus, but only to the extent of available net gains from previous sales or retirements of the same class of stock; otherwise, losses are charged to retained earnings. The cost of treasury stock is computed using the weighted-average method.

When treasury stock is retired, the weighted-average cost of the retired treasury stock is written off against the par value of the shares and the paid-in capital derived from the issuance of shares in excess of par value. If the weighted-average cost written off exceeds the sum of the par value and the paid-in capital in excess of par value, the difference is debited to capital surplus-treasury stock arising from the same class of stock or to retained earnings, and if vice versa, the difference is credited to capital surplus-treasury stock.

 

(3) Change in Accounting Policies and Its Effect

Effective from January 1, 2007, the Company adopted SFAS No. 37 “Intangible Assets”. In accordance with SFAS No. 37, the Company reevaluates the useful lives and the amortization method used for recognized intangible assets at the beginning of the financial year. There was no need to changed the useful lives or the amortization method.
