Introduction

As used herein, unless the context otherwise requires, “Registrant” and the “Company” (and “we”, “our” and similar expressions) refer to the business of Great East Bottles & Drinks (China) Holdings, Inc. (formerly named Jomar Specialities, Inc.) before the Share Exchange (as hereinafter defined) and Citysky after the Share Exchange.

We were incorporated on July 8, 1983 in the business of providing specialty printing services to the commercial printing industry.  Until consummation of the Share Exchange, our revenue was derived from providing printing services to other printing businesses.

On March 10, 2008, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Citysky Investment Holdings, Inc, a British Virgin Islands company (“Citysky”) and Guy A-Tsan Chung (formerly known as Chung A. San Guy), the sole shareholder of Citysky ( the “Shareholder”) to acquire 100% of the outstanding equity of Citysky from the Shareholder in consideration for 6,492,000 shares of our common stock (the “Share Exchange”).  The Share Exchange was consummated on March 10, 2008.

Citysky is the owner of 100% of each of the following companies (i) Great East Packaging International Limited, a British Virgin Island company, which owns 100% of Hangzhou Great East Packaging Company Limited, a wholly owned foreign enterprise incorporated in China on September 29, 1995 (“GEHZ”), (ii)  Great East Packaging (Nanjing) Limited, a British Virgin Island company, which owns 100% of Nanjing Great East Packaging Company Limited, a wholly owned foreign enterprise incorporated in China on January 18, 2001 (“GENJ”) and (iii) Great East Packaging (Xian) Limited, a British Virgin Island company, which owns 100% of Xian Great East Packaging Company Limited, a wholly owned foreign enterprise incorporated in China on August 16, 1996 (“GEXN”).  Citysky acquired the equity of Great East Packaging International Limited, Great East Packaging (Nanjing) Limited and Great East Packaging (Xian) Limited on February 28, 2008 from World Parade Group Limited and Gloria Success International Limited, who were also the owners of Citysky prior to the transfer.

Citysky and its subsidiaries are a group of manufacturers producing beverage bottle which mainly is made of PET, a type of plastic with desirable characteristic for packaging including clear and wide range of color and shape, tough, good resistance to heat, moisture and dilute acid. Beverage bottles are manufactured and sold in China for bottling of Carbonated Soft Drinks (“CSD”) for world brands including Coca-Cola and Pepsi.  Subsequent to the completion of the Share Exchange Agreement, Citysky’s business became our major business and the Shareholder became our majority shareholder

INDUSTRY AND MARKET ENVIRONMENT

Our company is part of the plastic packing case and container manufacturing industry in China. Our existing market is the market for PET-plastic bottles for beverages in China.

The Chinese market for our industry has been expanding steadily at double-digit growth rates for the last several years. While there are no official statistical data on our industry’s growth, we believe that the market size and market growth of our industry has increased due to the unit volume sales growth experienced in these industries that we supply.  In particular, we believe that higher volume growth in plastic-bottled beverages would likely imply a corresponding similar volume growth in plastic bottles manufacturing.

The average annual growth rate in bottled water consumption was 17.5% in China in 2003-2007, vs. just 7.6% globally (estimates by Beverage Marketing Corporation). The Chinese market for carbonated soft drinks grew 12.6% annually in revenue in 2007, and is expected to grow at 25.8% in 2008 (ACMR-IBISWorld report on 01/31/2008). In particular, Coca-Cola’s (our major customer, holding 43% market share in Chinese soft drinks market in 2006 and expanding rapidly into still beverages such as bottled water and orange juice) unit case volume growth in China was 34% in 2007, vs. India’s 14%, Russia’s 19%, and Brazil’s 25% (Coca-Cola’s Annual Review 2007 and Form 10-K, 02/28/2008). Pepsi Cola (our second major customer, holding 16.5% of market share in Chinese soft drinks market in 2006) also reported double-digit volume growth in its beverage business in China in 2006-2007 (PepsiCo Annual Report 2007). As such, a number of published statistics help to project that our industry has been enjoying healthy double-digit growth in China. Our industry is expected to remain positively related (pro-cyclical) to the overall economic cycle  of China, where GDP growth has hovered around 10% per annum in recent years.

We have also witnessed consumers’ increasing use of bottled beverages instead of non-bottled beverages such as tap water and freshly squeezed fruit juice. Over the past decade, bottled beverage consumption has grown exponentially, particularly in the developed world such as North America and Europe. According to a 2001 World Wildlife Fund (WWF) survey, global consumption of bottled water was 89 billion liters per year, worth roughly $22 million. The bottled beverage industry has become a culture in developed countries, especially at outdoors. Branded beverages including branded water are listed on menus of restaurants. The WWF study also confirmed that consumers associate bottled drinks with social status and healthy living. In the emerging markets such as China where public tap water may not be safe to drink, this bottled beverage culture is growing fast, as a result of individuals’ increasing awareness of wealth and health.  According to Chinese NPC official Sheng Huaren some 300 million of Chinese population have not had access to safe water sources, and 5 of 7 China’s major rivers are seriously polluted. The Chinese government has had to distribute bottled water to victims of contaminated rivers and wells on a number of occasions  For example, last year, China’s third largest lake Taikhu was so contaminated that 100,000 boxes of bottled water had to be sent to meet the water needs of 7 million residents.

The prevailing macroeconomic policy of the Chinese government promotes consumption spending. Consumer products are among the fastest growing sectors in the GDP of China, leading to economists’ comments that China is going to become one of the largest markets for domestic demand in the next decade. High-quality packaging is necessary and increasingly important for successful distribution of consumer products. Our industry is a necessary contributor to China’s next consumption boom.

RECENT BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

Our company will install new production machinery in Nanjing and Hangzhou production facilities with a view to improving and enhancing the existing production capacity to cope with the extended contracts requirements with Coca Cola and Pesi in 2009. GEBD’s market share increased to over 80% for Xian Pepsi in 2008 and is expected to achieve our target of 100% market share in Xian in 2009.

OUR PRODUCTS

We mainly produce 2 types of products: PET CSD bottles and PET CSD preforms for CSD bottles. PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) is a thermoplastic polymer resin of the polyester family.  It is widely used as raw material for synthetic fibers, beverage /food / liquid containers, thermoforming applications and as engineering resins.  PET CSD bottles are completed bottles ready for CSD bottling while PET CSD preforms are pre-production tubes made from PET resin that are used in a stretch-blow-molding machine to produce the final PET bottle

PET CSD bottles

PET CSD bottles are transformed from PET CSD preforms through a stretch-blow-molding manufacturing process.  PET CSD bottles are popular containers for the CSD bottling process.

Unlike aluminum cans and glass bottles, PET CSD bottles are applied to medium to large volume CSD products, i.e., over 500ml.  Volume of PET CSD bottles ranges from 500ml to 2,500ml with PET CSD preforms weights ranging from 25g to 56g, respectively.  The shapes of the CSD bottle are designed by the customers.

Newly produced PET CSD bottles are stored in warehouses for scheduled CSD bottling process. The expiry period of PET CSD preforms varies from 15 days to 3 months from the date produced, depending on the storing conditions such as room temperature and relative humidity

PET CSD preforms

PET CSD preforms are pre-production tubes made from PET resin that are used in a stretch-blow-molding machine to produce the final PET bottle.  PET CSD preforms can be colored green or blue according to customers’ requirements. The weight of PET CSD preforms determines the volume of the final PET CSD bottle.  Heavier PET performs are used to produce larger PET CSD bottles.  Sizes of our PET CSD preforms range from 25g to 56g, which is our customers’ required weight range.

Newly produced PET CSD preforms are stored in warehouses for scheduled PET CSD bottle blowing process. PET performs expire three months from their production date.

TARGET CUSTOMERS

PET bottles are suitable for various applications including water, tea drinks, CSD and other beverages bottling.  However, our PET CSD bottles and PET CSD preforms are targeted to CSD application only.  CSD contains instable carbonate components and it demands higher quality requirements on PET bottles and PET preforms compared to those applied to water and tea drinks.  Thus, CSD applications represent a higher margin segment in the PET bottles and PET preforms market as it demands a higher quality standard.  We are qualified to produce higher quality PET bottles and PET preforms that are susceptible for CSD applications and therefore, we position ourselves in the higher margin CSD segment of the bottling industry instead of the lower end water and tea drinks applications.

PET CSD bottles

Our PET CSD bottles target CSD producers and CSD bottlers in China.

1.
CSD producers in China - Currently there are international and local CSD producers in China.  Compared to local CSD producers, international CSD producers usually demand higher quality PET CSD bottles in terms of visual appearance, dimension, weight, perpendicularity, fill point capacity, wall thickness, sectional weights, burst resistance, thermal stability, stress crack, top load, drop impact and carbonation loss.  In addition to higher quality requirements international CSD producers can also afford a higher price for PET CSD bottles.  Our quality control department has designed a lot of internal guidelines and procedures so as to comply with all requirements from international CSD producers.  As a result, we consider international CSD producers are our target customers rather than local CSD producers.

2.
CSD bottlers in China - CSD bottlers are vendors of CSD producers that bottle their CSD products. Swire Beverages and COFCO Coca-Cola Co. Limited are two of the most famous CSD bottlers in China.  There are approximately 10 CSD bottlers in China serving international and local CSD producers.  We also consider CSD bottlers who serve international CSD producers to be our target customers.

PET CSD preforms

Our PET CSD preforms target other PET CSD bottles manufacturers in China. Some of the PET CSD bottles manufacturers in China purchase PET CSD preforms from PET CSD preforms producers and stretch-blow-mold PET CSD performs into PET CSD bottles.  Zhuhai Zhongfu and Shanghai Zijiang are 2 famous suppliers of PET CSD bottles in China that purchase PET CSD preforms from PET CSD preforms from PET CSD preforms producers.  We consider these PET CSD bottles manufacturers who purchase PET CSD preforms to be our target customers.  Usually these CSD bottles manufacturers who purchase PET CSD performs from us serve international CSD producers in China, since our PET CSD performs are of a sufficiently high quality to meet the requirements of international CSD producers.

OUR MAJOR CUSTOMERS

Our major customers are Coca-Cola and Pepsi, the two leading worldwide brands in the CSD industry. Our company continues to keep good customer relationship with Coca-Cola and Pepsi and they renewed the contracts with us in 2008.
 
Coca-Cola

We serve Coca-Cola through our GEHZ and GENJ production facilities. GEHZ signed a Coordinated Supply Agreement to serve Coca–Cola through Hangzhou BC Foods Company Limited (“HZBC”) and GENJ signed a Coordinated Supply Agreement to serve Coca–Cola through Nanjing BC Foods Company Limited (“NJBC”).  HZBC and NJBC are subsidiaries of Swire Pacific Limited, which is the CSD bottler for Coca-Cola in China.

In order to ensure no disruption of the supply of PET CSD bottles to HZBC and NJBC will occur, GEHZ and GENJ have each agreed to provide capacity for the other should either of them face a surge in demand from HZBC or NJBC.  Either GEHZ or GENJ will increase their production and transport the overflow volume to the other in case either of them fails to provide a sufficient number of PET CSD bottles to HZBC or NJBC

Raw material

We are not required to purchase PET resin under the contracts and Coca–Cola has agreed to make special arrangement for us.  For instance, based on GEHZ’s expected production volume, HZBC shall purchase an adequate amount of PET resin from its approved suppliers, who will then deliver the PET resin directly to GEHZ.  NJBC and GENJ have the same supply arrangement.

Pricing

We are obliged to offer Coca-Cola whatever is the lowest price we offer PET CSD bottles to our other customers with substantially equivalent quality we sold to Coca-Cola under “the most favor customer” clause.  Moreover, we have to meet the most competitive pricing from other competitors over the market, who offer PET CSD bottles with substantially equivalent quality we sold to Coca-Cola.

The price of PET CSD bottles includes PET CSD bottles blowing, PET CSD preforms conversion, all packaging materials and pallet, transportation to customers, value added tax and colorant, but excludes PET resin and label price.

Other terms

We are required to comply with all applicable laws and regulations governing labor, wages, benefits, working hours, overtime, safety and environmental protections.

Pepsi

We serve Pepsi through our GEXN production facilities.  GEXN has signed an Inline Mode Coordinated Supply Agreement (the “Pepsi Agreement”) to serve Pepsi through Xian Pepsi-Cola Beverage Company Limited, which is a joint venture company between PepsiCo Investment (China) Ltd. and local food and beverage companies in Xian.

We produce PET CSD bottles with capacities ranging from 600ml to 2,500ml with certain performance criteria including appearance, dimension, weight, fill point capacity, wall thickness & sectional weights, perpendicularity, burst resistance, thermal stability, stress crack, top load test, drop impact and carbonation loss.
 
6


The Pepsi Agreement was renewed on March 18, 2008 and has a term of five years. If we cannot reach a mutual consent for the renewal of this agreement, Pepsi has the right to buy back our production line for a price to be determined by 15 years depreciation without residual value. (Exhibit 10.1)

Pepsi has committed a volume guarantee to us of not less than 70% of Pepsi’s annual PET CSD bottles requirements in Xian province during the terms of the contract.  Pursuant to the terms of the contract, we are obligated to guarantee a non interrupted supply of our PET CSD bottles to Pepsi.

We must offer the lowest competitive price to Pepsi. The price includes PET resin, the tolling fee of PET CSD bottles blowing and value added tax,  but excludes label price, the tolling fee of label and colorant.

OUR PRODUCTION FACILITIES

We own and operate 3 manufacturing facilities in China: GEHZ, GENJ and GEXN.

GEHZ

GEHZ is located at No. 1 Road, Economic & Technological Development Zone, Jiubao Jianggan District, Hangzhou, China.  It is comprised of 2 buildings, one of which serves as an administration office, production line factory and warehouse and the other serves as a staff canteen and quality control office. GEHZ operates one PET CSD bottle production line and four PET CSD preform production lines.

·
PET CSD preforms molds and changed.
·
PET resin is transferred from warehouse to the raw materials room .
·
PET resin is drawn into the feed hopper through pipeline by suction.
·
PET resin is heated, dried and moved into the Injection Molding machine.
·
While PET resin enters the Injection Molding machine, it is heated above its transition temperature and move forward in the molds.
·
PET resin undergoes extreme pressure and is molded into PET CSD preforms.
·
The PET CSD preforms are automatically stripped through action of the mold after cooling.
·
PET CSD preforms undergo quality check by production team and quality control department to ensure the quality to achieve customers’ requirement.
·
PET CSD preforms are packaged and sent to storage.

PET CSD bottles

PET CSD bottles are produced through a stretch-blow-molding manufacturing process and operated under two operations modes, Inline Mode and Offline Mode.

Offline Mode

The following are the procedures followed in the Offline Mode:

·
PET CSD bottles molds are changed.
·
PET CSD preforms are transferred from warehouse to a PET CSD preforms container.
·
PET CSD preforms are sorted by a sorting machine, which is part of Stretch Blowing Machine.
·
The sorting machine screens out those PET CSD preforms of poor quality.
·
The PET CSD preforms are transferred to the main body of Stretch Blowing Machine and are heated (typically by infrared heaters) above their transition temperature.
·
PET CSD preforms are blown into bottles using high pressure air and the metal blow molds.
·
PET CSD bottles are transferred to the conveyor belt after cooling.
·
Our production team and quality control department perform quality check to ensure the quality of the PET CSD bottles meet Coca-Cola’s or Pepsi’s quality requirements.
·
PET CSD bottles are transferred to the labeling machine through conveyor belt for labeling.
·
Our production team and quality control department perform quality check on the labeled PET CSD bottles to ensure the quality meets Coca-Cola’s or Pepsi’s requirements.
·
Labeled PET CSD bottles are packed and stored.

Inline Mode

All procedures are exactly the same as Offline Mode except: that instead of packing the labeled PET CSD bottles for storage, the bottles are sent directly to Coca-Cola’s production line or Pepsi’s production line through a conveyor belt.

Under Inline Mode, if we cannot meet the customers’ bottle-filling process schedule, the labeled PET CSD bottles will not be sent to the customer’s production line directly, but will be packaged and sent to our storage.

OUR PRODUCTION TEAM

We have dedicated production teams in each of our production facilities to be responsible for different products: Preform Production Teams are responsible for PET CSD preforms production and Bottle Blowing Teams are responsible for PET CSD bottles production. Managers of our Perform Production Teams and our Bottle Blowing Teams report directly to the general manager of each manufacturing facility.

OUR PURCHASING PROCEDURES

The purchasing departments of GEHZ, GENJ and GEXN each consist of one employee coordinating all purchasing matters, among which the purchase of PET resin (raw material for our production) is the top priority. We have special arrangements with our international customers to ensure stable pricing and a sufficient supply of PET resin to support our massive production.

GEHZ and GENJ

Included in the terms of our supply agreement with Coca-Cola is a list of Coca Cola’s dedicated PET resin suppliers  that supply PET resin directly to our GEHZ and GENJ manufacturing facilities.  PET resin cost is directly borne by Coca-Cola.  Based on our projected production schedule, Coca–Cola arranges the delivery of PET resin to our manufacturing facilities.

GEXN

GEXN does not produce PET CSD preforms, and therefore we purchase PET CSD preforms from Pepsi’s authorized PET CSD preforms suppliers.

For general purchases other than PET resin, our purchasing departments normally obtain three price quotations from three suppliers with similar product quality in order to determine the most competitive price before we place an order. Therefore we maintain lists of suppliers for various production and office supplies.  We perform annual production and office supplies planning and budgeting.

QUALITY CONTROL

We have quality control departments (“QC”) in each of our GEHZ, GENJ and GEXN facilities to monitor the quality of our products. GEHZ’s QC consists of one manager and 14 technicians. GENJ’s QC consists of one manager and 17 technicians. GEXN’s QC consists of one manager and seven technicians. The QC manager of each QC reports directly to the general manager of each facility.

The responsibilities of a QC are to:

·
Set up quality control procedures
·
Monitor the work flow through statistical analysis
·
Improve staff quality through training and examination
·
Ensure that all products meet the quality standards of our customers

Each product has its quality specifications as required by our customers and such specifications may be modified from time to time.  We are obligated to meet such requirements.
 
11


In order to assure the quality of our products, the QC assigns responsibilities, provides updated training and suggests improvement proposals to the respective production staffs. The QC also sets up reporting systems to ensure quality:

·
Technicians report quality related issues to team leaders
·
Team leaders summarize the issues into simple reports to department managers within two hours
·
Department managers analyze and set up preventive procedures based on the quality reports.

EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE

Equipment maintenance is an important element of our daily production operation. Our maintenance teams work closely with our production teams to ensure that the production equipment is capable of meeting the planned production volume. In GEHZ, the maintenance team reports directly to the general manager of GEHZ. In GENJ and GEXN, the maintenance teams are included in the production teams.

The responsibilities of equipment maintenance teams are as follows:

·
Maintain all production equipment to cope with daily production
·
Support our production teams on equipment failure issues
·
Handle urgent calls from production teams with respect to any kinds of production interruptions associated with production equipment
·
Plan and conduct maintenance schedules for production equipment
·
Improve maintenance techniques to increase production efficiency

Equipment maintenance teams also conduct planned regular maintenance according to schedules. This maintenance covers all production equipment, electrical systems and air compressors. Regular maintenance schedules are conducted on daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and yearly bases depending on the degree of complexity to conduct the maintenance, time required to conduct the maintenance, production quantity, metal fatigue, staff arrangement and peak season.  Regular maintenance for each production line consists of the following:

·
Daily maintenance – 60 minutes
·
Weekly maintenance – 4 hours
·
Monthly maintenance – 8 hours
·
Yearly maintenance is conducted during non peak season for a duration ranging from 15 days to 20 days. Yearly maintenance is extremely importance because it ensures our operations in peak seasons will not be disrupted by any serious equipments failures.

Equipment maintenance teams also provide training for our engineers and technicians to enhance their relevant knowledge and skills. The scope of the training provided includes technical specifications, updates from equipment vendors and internal staff guidance materials.

SAFETY

We have established dedicated safety committees (“SC”) in GEHZ, GENJ and GEXN. Each SC consists of all department managers and the general manager of such facility. There are quality control managers (“QC managers”) in each facility to provide guidance and assistance to the SC. The responsibilities of the SC are as follows:

·
Conduct factory security, environment and hygiene inspections.
·
Educate all department staffs on safety.
·
Identify potential hazards and work out preventive measures against those potential hazards.
·
Enforce compliance on safety procedures.
·
Ensure that each department reports to the SC on safety related data and information in a format determined by the QC managers.
·
Arrange regular safety meetings.
 
12

 
Each department has its own specific safety procedures to suit its particular needs.  However the all departments do the following:

·
Conduct training to staff on occupational health and safety as well as risk control.
·
Assess all identified potential hazards and formulate preventive measures.
·
Enforce safety procedures.
·
Conduct internal audit / assessment on safety issues on a regular basis.

There are certain safety standards required by our customers. For example, Coca-Cola requires working conditions of our facilities to be compliance with government regulations and all applicable environmental laws. There are some costs to us associated with safety compliance.

SALES AND MARKETING

We have one employee serving as a customer services coordinator in each of our GEHZ, GENJ and GEXN manufacturing facilities.  The customer service coordinator is responsible for the following:

·
Meeting regularly with customers to plan the production schedule
·
Informing the production and purchasing departments of the planned production schedule
·
Arranging the delivery schedules of products
·
Coordinating with relevant departments to handle complaints
·
Accommodating the production schedules of customers and otherwise satisfying their requirements

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

We do not hold, own or license any patents, trademarks or other intellectual property.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

We do not incur or pay any costs in relation to research and development in 2008 as our products are able to satisfy the existing product specifications from our major customers.

SEASONALITY

Our sales are subject to seasonality.  In general, we believe our sales will be higher in the second and third quarters of the year when the weather is hot and dry and lower in the first and fourth quarters of the year when the weather is cold and wet.  Sales peak during the months from June to September.

COMPETITION

There are a few PET CSD bottle producers that serve international CSD producers and a few CSD bottlers serving international CSD producers. The demand for high quality CSD bottles is expected to grow in line with the growth rate of the sales of international CSD products, which is associated with the strong economic growth of China.
 
13


We believe that our current competitive environment is moderate. There are only two PET CSD bottles producers that compete with our scale in an environment of high industry growth rate. According to our customers (Coca-Cola in GENJ / GEHZ and Pepsi in GEXN), their expected grow rates for 2008 are both at 10% level. Coca-Cola is the official sponsor of the Beijing Olympic 2008 while Pepsi is the official sponsor of the World Cup 2010.

Glass bottles and aluminum cans are common substitutes for PET CSD bottles. We do not, however believe that glass bottles and aluminum cans would be considered desirable substitutes for PET CSD bottles by our customers for the following reasons:

·
Glass bottles and aluminum cans are for typically for low volume CSD packing (less than 500ml) while PET bottles are for 500ml up to 2,500ml.
·
Glass bottles are  heavier in weight and incur high transaction costs for delivery compared to PET CSD bottles.
·
Aluminum, the basic raw material for aluminum cans, has doubled its price in the past six years.  Current aluminum price levels  are around $3,100/MT which is more expensive than the PET price of around $1,250/MT.

We believe that the threat of the entry of new competitors into our market is low due to high barriers to entry which include the following:

·
Production facilities have to be set up proximate to customers’ CSD bottling facilities. Because of high transaction costs, every PET CSD bottles producer has a limited perimeter of serving area.
·
Highly specialized and expensive production equipment are designated by customers.
·
International CSD producers, for example, Coca-Cola & Pepsi, have strict requirements on PET CSD bottles producer;  at this time there are only a few PET CSD bottles producers who are qualified and capable of serving the international CSD producers.

Although customer concentration rate is high in our industry, the switching cost for our customers to change vendors is also high as there are only a few PET CSD bottle producers in China qualified to produce high quality PET CSD bottles and PET CSD preforms to meet international standards. In addition, there is no current comparable substitute product for PET CSD bottles.

Due to low level of competitive rivalry threat and substitute products threat, we believe competition for our industry should continue to be moderate during the next 3-5 years.

Competitive factors

PET CSD bottles producers, which serve international CSD producers and CSD bottlers serving international CSD producers, mainly compete in terms of price, product quality, flexibility to complement customers’ production schedule, possession of customers’ designated production equipment, ability to grow in production capacity, communication infrastructure and possession of experienced management team with industry expertise.  The following is a more detailed description of each of these factors:

Price: Only a few competitors in the market, who have competitive pricing, can build up their market shares directly.
 
Product quality: International CSD producers and their bottlers require very high quality PET CSD bottles in order to satisfy their quality standard requirements.
 
Flexibility to complement customers’ production schedule: For Inline Mode production, producers with more flexibility to accommodate customers’ production schedule will be to generate more business due to their ability to assist the customers to produce more efficiently.
 
Possession of customers’ designated production equipment: Production equipment designated by customers tend to be expensive because of their higher quality and reliability at the product level. New entrants to the market would have to purchase this designated production equipment in order to enter the market and existing competitors would have to be acquire additional equipment with these designated production specifications in order to expand their production capacities.
 
14

 
Ability to grow in production capacity: International CSD producers are expected to have strong sales growth rates in China in the coming several years and the ability to grow in production capacity (in terms of quantity of production, the number of new production lines or the number of new production facilities).  This growth potential is vital to the ability to capture this volume growth since none of the current PET CSD bottles producers in the market can build up more market shares solely through their existing production lines and facilities.
 
Communication infrastructure: International CSD producers in China consist of multinational expatriates and local people. The ability to communicate effectively with the management of an International CSD producer is important especially in dealing with new contracts or contract renewals.
 
Possession of experienced management team with industry expertise: To achieve the very high quality standards required by international CSD producers, an experienced management team with industry expertise is required in every production line / facility to plan, manage and implement strict quality controls.

Major competitors

We consider international CSD producers and CSD bottlers serving international CSD producers to be our target market. There are two major competitors in the China market competing with us to serve the same market.  They are Zhuhai Zhongfu Enterprise Co. Ltd. (“Zhongfu”) and Shanghai Zijiang Enterprise Co. Ltd. (“Zijiang”).

Zhongfu is a listed company on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange stock symbol 000659.sz. Zhongfu manufactures and sells PET preforms, PET bottles, and film labels and has an approximately  $282 million in annual revenue and 934 employees.  Zhongfu has 30 production facilities throughout China including Shenzhen, Kunshan, Chengdu, Tianjin and Beijing.

Zijiang is a listed company on the Shanghai Stock Exchange stock symbol 600210.ss. Zijiang manufactures PET preforms, PET bottles, bottle caps, plastic bags and other diversified businesses, including real estate and hotels.  Zijiang has approximately $550 million in annual revenue and 683 employees. Zijiang has production facilities in 15 locations in China.

Our competitive advantages

We believe that our competitive advantages are as follows:

Product quality - We are qualified to produce higher quality PET CSD bottles and PET CSD preforms. Our quality control department designs various internal guidelines and procedures to comply with international CSD producers’ requirements. Our manufacturing facilities are required to be periodically audited by our international CSD producer customers for quality and hygiene standards compliance.

Flexibility to complement customers’ production schedule - Our experienced management teams are capable of fulfilling our international customers’ needs on production planning, production surge, product switching, equipment maintenance planning and logistics for CSD bottles production.  Our management teams always work to ensure that production for our international customers is done in the most efficient way possible and that no disruptions in production take place

Possession of customers’ designated production equipments - Serving international CSD producers and their bottlers requires high quality standards compared to local CSD producers. All of our production machines for PET CSD bottles and PET CSD preforms are customers designated production equipment that can ensure high product quality with high degree of reliability. Our existing designated production equipment (including the molds for our customers’ respective tailor-made CSD bottles) adequately fulfill our customers’ production requirements. The pricing of this designated production equipment is much higher than that of the substitute machinery produced locally and is normally not accessible by PET CSD bottle producers not serving international customers.
 
15


Experienced management team with industry expertise - Our local management teams have been serving us for more than 5 to 10 years. Compared to our major competitors, whose management teams are either recruited recently or new to the business in light of the rapid geographical expansion in certain locations, our management teams are more experienced in the PET CSD bottles business.

At present, our major competitors are listed companies with stronger ability to arrange for both external and internal resources.  In terms of the ability to grow in production capacity, we believe that we may be at a competitive disadvantage to our major competitors because we believe that the relative costs of an internal or external financing would be higher than that of our major competitors.

Pricing is also one of the competitive factors in the industry.  Our flexibility on pricing is less competitive to our major competitors due to their stronger financial strength as listed companies.

REGULATION

Our company has a policy to comply with all applicable laws and regulations not only in China but also all countries throughout the world in which we do business.

The production in China of our company’s products is generally subject to environmental protection regulations that require all manufacturing industries to adopt measures to control the disposal of industrial waste, industrial manufacturing licensing and company licensing laws that regulate the business scope of companies, taxation laws that require income tax payable to the Chinese government, and labor laws that restrict maximum work-hours.

Environmental Protection Regulations

The Environmental Protection Law of China has been developed and implemented by the Ministry of Environment Protection (the “Ministry”).  Since 1984, the Chinese government has attempted to mitigate its pollution problem amid the industrialization process. The Ministry has set up subsidiary bureaus throughout all provinces of China to implement fast-improving measures for environmental protection. In particular, companies are required to adopt measures to control pollution engendered by industrial waste, noise, radiation, and vibration. All companies are required to report to the bureau in their county about the status of pollutants and the measures adopted to deal with the pollutants. Penalty fees are levied on companies whose pollutant discharge levels exceed the standards set by the Ministry. The Ministry also often issues warning notices and fines, and may mandate temporary suspension of production for installation of pollution control facilities. In serious cases where the pollution causes physical or personal damage, the Ministry may impose sanctions, demand compensation to victims, coerce permanent termination of companies, or sue company owners for criminal liability.

Our Company only paid some minimal administrative costs with respect to submitting environmental reports and other related documents to the Ministry of Environment Protection in accordance with environmental laws in China. No other substantial cost was paid relating to compliance with environmental protection laws in China.

Company Laws and Regulations

The Chinese government has promulgated company laws and regulations through its State Administration for Industry and Commerce. To operate a business in China, a company has to apply for business and production licenses at the Enterprise Registration Bureau and/or the Registration Bureau of Foreign-Invested Enterprise. Such various licenses have to be obtained for companies manufacturing important industrial products such as plastic bottles and containers. Application for production licenses requires official tests and inspections by the government be passed, and maintenance of the licenses require subsequent regular periodic inspections. Production and product quality is also monitored by government, through the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection, and Quarantine of PRC.

Corporate Income Taxation

Income taxes chargeable to companies in China may differ across industries and location due to differences in preferential tax treatment or subsidies. In general, the corporate income tax rate has a ceiling of 33%, but foreign-invested companies shall enjoy preferential rates: full tax exemption applies to the first two years when the company records profits, and thereafter there is a 50% tax exemption for the subsequent third to fifth years. Our company belongs to this foreign-invested category, hence our present and future subsidiaries shall enjoy the same tax concessions.
 
16


Labor Laws

According to Chinese Labor Law, the maximum work hours for a labor are 40 hours per week. Owing to the seasonality factor, the PET CSD bottle production industry has peak and non-peak seasons throughout the year. During peak seasons, our employees may have to work for more than 40 hours per week; but during non-peak seasons, our employees may have to work for less than 40 hours per week. We have therefore applied for and have been granted approvals from relevant government authorities to count the work hours for a labor on yearly basis instead of weekly basis. As a result, we have not violated the maximum work-hour requirement, but at the same time have greatly improved flexibility of our labor force in coping with the seasonality problem.

Risk Factors

Risks Related to Our Business

Our expansion strategy may not be proven successful.

One of our key strategies to grow our business is to aggressively expand our production capacity. We will need to engage in various forms of capacity expansion activities at corporate level, and of production activities at operational level in order to carry out our plans. Therefore, the Company’s proposed operations are subject to all of the risks inherent in the unforeseen costs and expenses, challenges, complications and delays frequently encountered in connection with the formation of any new business, as well as those risks that are specific to the bottled water industry in general. Despite our best efforts, we may never overcome these obstacles to financial success. There can be no assurance that the Company’s efforts will be successful or result in revenue or profit, or that investors will not lose their entire investment.
 
17


Our results of operations may fluctuate due to seasonality.

Our sales are subject to seasonality. For example, we typically experience higher sales of bottled water in summer time in coastal cities while the sales remain constant through out the entire year in some inland cities. In general, we believe our sales will be higher in the second and third quarters of the year when the weather is hot and dry, and lower in the fourth and first quarters of the year when the weather is cold and wet. Sales peak during the months from June to September. Sales can also fluctuate during the course of a financial year for a number of other reasons, including weather conditions and the timing of advertising and promotional campaigns. As a result of these reasons, our operating results may fluctuate. In addition, the seasonality of our results may be affected by other unforeseen circumstances, such as production interruptions. Due to these fluctuations, comparison of sales and operating results between the same periods within a single year, or between different periods in different financial years, are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied on as indicators of our performance.

Increases in raw material prices that we are not able to pass on to our some of our customers would reduce our profit margins

The principal raw materials we use in our production, is subject to a high degree of price volatility caused by external conditions like price fluctuations of PET raw materials-the byproducts of oil, which account for a significant portion of our product cost. We cannot guarantee that the price we pay for our raw materials will be stable in the future. Price changes to our raw materials may result in unexpected increases in production, packaging and distribution costs, and we may be unable to increase the prices of our final products to offset these increased costs to some of our customers for instance, Pepsi, and therefore may suffer a reduction to our profit margins. We do not currently hedge against changes in our raw material prices.

We face increasing competition from both domestic and foreign companies, which may affect our market share and profit margin.

The PET bottles industry in China is highly competitive, and we expect it to continue to become even more competitive. Our ability to compete against these enterprises is, to a significant extent, dependent on our ability to distinguish our products from those of our competitor by providing high quality products at reasonable prices that appeal to consumers. Some of our competitors may have been in business longer than we have, may have substantially greater financial and other resources than we have and may be better established in their markets. Our competitors in any particular market may also benefit from raw material sources or production facilities that are closer to such markets, which provide them with competitive advantages in terms of costs and proximity to consumers.
 
18


We cannot assure you that our current or potential competitors will not provide products comparable or superior to those we provide or adapt more quickly than we do to evolving industry trends or changing market requirements. It is also possible that there will be significant consolidation in the PET bottle industry among our competitors, alliances may develop among competitors and these alliances may rapidly acquire significant market share. Furthermore, competition may lead competitors to substantially increase their advertising expenditures and promotional activities or to engage in irrational or predatory pricing behavior. We also cannot assure you that third parties will not actively engage in activities, whether legal or illegal, designed to undermine our brand name and product quality or to influence consumer confidence in our product. Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced margins and loss of market share, any of which could materially adversely affect our profit margin. We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete effectively against current and future competitors.

Our inability to diversify our operations may subject us to economic fluctuations within our industry.

Our limited financial resources reduce the likelihood that we will be able to diversify our operations. Our probable inability to diversify our activities into more than one business area will subject us to economic fluctuations within the bottled water industry and therefore increase the risks associated with our operations.

We are subject to environmental laws and regulations in the PRC. Changes in the existing laws and regulations or additional or stricter laws and regulations on environmental protection in China may cause us to incur significant capital expenditures, and we cannot assure that we will be able to comply with any such laws and regulations.

We carry on our business in an industry that is subject to PRC environmental protection laws and regulations. These laws and regulations require enterprises engaged in manufacturing and construction that may cause environmental waste to adopt effective measures to control and properly dispose of waste gases, waste water, industrial waste, dust and other environmental waste materials, as well as fee payments from producers discharging waste substances. Fines may be levied against producers causing pollution. If failure to comply with such laws or regulations results in environmental pollution, the administrative department for environmental protection can levy fines. If the circumstances of the breach are serious, it is at the discretion of the central government of the PRC including all governmental subdivisions to cease or close any operation failing to comply with such laws or regulations. There can also be no assurance that operation will fail to comply with such laws or regulations. There can also be no assurance that the PRC government will not change the exiting laws or regulations or impose additional or stricter laws or regulations, compliance with which may cause us to incur significant capital expenditure, which we may be unable to pass on to our customers through higher prices for our products. In addition, we cannot assure that we will be able to comply with any such laws and regulations.
 
19


We depend on a few key customers, the loss of any of which could cause a significant decline in our revenues.

Coca-Cola and Pepsi accounted for 79% and 21%, respectively, of our net revenue in 2008 and 80% and 20%, respectively, of our net revenue in 2007.  The loss of either of these customers or a significant reduction in sales to either of these customers would materially adversely affect our profitability.

Supplying PET bottles to beverage and service companies constitutes a major portion of our revenue. Any delays in delivery may affect our sales, damage our long-term relationship with our client, and even incur penalty.

Sales made to beverage and service companies account for a large portion of our total sales. Recently, our production capacity is at more than 95%. If we failed in deliver the goods to those companies on time, we may run into a risk of damaging our long-term relationship with the client.

We may not successfully manage our growth.

Our success will depend upon the expansion of our operations and the effective management of our growth, which will place a significant strain on our management and administrative, operational, and financial resources. To manage this growth, we must expand our facilities, augment our operational, financial and management systems, and hire and train additional qualified personnel. If we are unable to manage our growth effectively, our business would be harmed.

We may experience material disruptions to our manufacturing operation.

We operate our facilities in compliance with applicable rules and regulations and take measures to minimize the risks of disruption at our facilities.  A material disruption at one of our manufacturing facilities could prevent us from meeting customer demand, reduce our sales and/or negatively impact our financial results.  Any of our manufacturing facilities, or any of our machines within an otherwise operational facility, could cease operations unexpectedly due to a number of events including:

·
unscheduled maintenance outages;
·
prolonged power failures;
·
an equipment failure;
·
disruptions in the transportation infrastructure, including roads, bridges and railroad tracks;
·
fires, floods, earthquakes or other catastrophes; and
·
other operational problems
 
20

 
We rely on key executive officers. Their knowledge of our business and technical expertise would be difficult to replace.

We were founded in 1994 by Mr. Guy A-Tsan Chung.  Since then, Mr. Stetson Chung, the son of Guy A-Tsan Chung and our highly experienced senior management team has developed us into a large scale PET bottle production company. Stetson Chung, together with other senior management, has been the key driver of our strategy and has been fundamental to our achievements to date. The successful management of our business is, to a considerable extent, dependent on the services of Stetson Chung and other senior management. The loss of the services of any key management employee or failure to recruit a suitable or comparable replacement could have a significant impact upon our ability to manage our business effectively and our business and future growth may be adversely affected.

The ownership of our common stock is concentrated and one stockholder is able to exercise significant influence over all matters requiring stockholder approval.

Guy A-Tsan Chung currently owns 74.25% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, Guy A-Tsan Chung will be able to continue to exercise significant influence over all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of mergers, acquisitions and other significant corporate transactions. In addition, this concentration of stock ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of our Company.

We are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws, which can be expensive.

We are a public reporting company in the U.S. and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and other federal securities laws, and the compliance obligations of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The costs of preparing and filing annual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders will cause our expenses to be higher than they would be if we remained a privately-held company.

Our compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC rules concerning internal controls may be time consuming, difficult and costly.

It may be time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by Sarbanes-Oxley.  We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance staff in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures. If we are unable to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley’s internal controls requirements, we may not be able to obtain the independent accountant certifications that Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires publicly-traded companies to obtain.

There is not now, and there may not ever be, an active market for our common stock.

There currently is no market for our common stock. Further, although our common stock may be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, trading of our common stock may be extremely sporadic. For example, several days may pass before any shares may be traded. There can be no assurance that a more active market for the common stock will develop.
 
21


Because we became public by means of a “reverse merger”, we may not be able to attract the attention of major brokerage firms.

Additional risks may exist since we will become public through a “reverse merger.” Securities analysts of major brokerage firms may not provide coverage of us since there is little incentive to brokerage firms to recommend the purchase of our common stock. No assurance can be given that brokerage firms will want to conduct any secondary offerings on behalf of our company in the future.

We cannot assure you that the common stock will become liquid or that it will be listed on a securities exchange.

We plan to list our common stock on the American Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Capital Market as soon as practicable. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to meet the initial listing standards of either of those or of any other stock exchange, or that it will be able to maintain any such listing. Until the common stock is listed on an exchange, we expect that it would be eligible to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, another over-the-counter quotation system, or in the “pink sheets.” In those venues, however, an investor may find it difficult to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of the common stock. In addition, if we failed to meet the criteria set forth in SEC regulations, various requirements would be imposed by law on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, such regulations may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling the common stock, which may further affect its liquidity. This would also make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital.

There may be issuances of shares of preferred stock in the future.

Although we currently do not have preferred shares outstanding, the board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant holders preferred rights to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividends before dividends would be declared to common stockholders, and the right to the redemption of such shares, possibly together with a premium, prior to the redemption of the common stock. To the extent that we do issue preferred stock, the rights of holders of common stock could be impaired thereby, including without limitation, with respect to liquidation.

We have never paid dividends.

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying any for the foreseeable future.

Our common stock is considered a “penny stock.”

The SEC has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. The market price of our common stock is less than $5.00 per share and therefore is a “penny stock.” Broker and dealers effecting transactions in “penny stock” must disclose certain information concerning the transaction, obtain a written agreement from the purchaser and determine that the purchaser is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities. These rules may restrict the ability of brokers or dealers to sell our common stock and may affect your ability to sell shares. In addition, if our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board as anticipated, investors may find it difficult to obtain accurate quotations of the stock, and may find few buyers to purchase such stock and few market makers to support its price.

Risks relating to doing business in China

Substantially all of our business assets are located in China, and substantially all of our sales is derived from China. Accordingly, our results of operations, financial position and prospects are subject to a significant degree to the economic, political and legal development in China.

We derive a substantial portion of ours sales from China

Substantially all of our sales are generated from China. We anticipated that sales of our products in China will continue to represent a substantial proportion of our total sales in the near future. Any significant decline in the condition of the PRC economy could adversely affect consumer buying power and reduce consumption of our products, among other things, which in turn would have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Our ability to implement our planned development is dependent on many factors, including the ability to receive various governmental permits.

In accordance with PRC laws and regulations, we are required to maintain various licenses and permits in order to operate our business at each of our production facilities including, without limitation, hygiene permits and industrial products production permits. We are required to comply with applicable hygiene and food safety standards in relation to our production processes. Failure to pass these inspections, or the loss of or suspend some or all of our production activities, could disrupt our operations and adversely affect our business.

The Company faces the risk that changes in the policies of the Chinese government could have a significant impact upon our ability to sustain our growth and expansion strategies.

Since 1978, the PRC government has promulgated various reforms of its economic system and government structure. These reforms have resulted in significant economic growth and social progress for China in the last two decades. Many of the reforms are unprecedented or experimental, and such reforms are expected to be modified from time to time. Although we can not predict whether changes in China’s political, economic and social conditions, laws, regulations and policies will have any materially adverse effect on our current or future business, results of operation or financial condition.

Our ability to continue to expand our business is dependent on a number of factors, including general economic and capital market conditions in China and credit availability from banks and other lenders in China. Recently, the PRC government has implemented various measures to control the rate of economic growth and tighten its monetary policies. Slower economic growth rate may in turn have an adverse effect on our ability to sustain the growth rate we have historically achieved due to the aggregate market demand for consumer goods like bottled water.

Fluctuation in the value of the RMB may have a material adverse effect on your investment.

The value of RMB against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions.  Our revenues and costs are mostly denominated in RMB.  Any significant fluctuation in value of RMB may materially and adversely affect our cash flows, revenues, earnings and financial position, and the value of our stock in U.S. dollars.  For example, an appreciation of RMB against the U.S. dollar would make any new RMB denominated investments or expenditures more costly to us, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into RMB for such purposes.  In addition, the depreciation of significant U.S. dollar denominated assets could result in a charge to our income statement and a reduction in the value of these assets.

We must comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

We are required to comply with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits U.S. companies from engaging in bribery or other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business.  Foreign companies, including some of our competitors, are not subject to these prohibitions.  Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices occur from time-to-time in mainland China.  If our competitors engage in these practices, they may receive preferential treatment from personnel of some companies, giving our competitors an advantage in securing business or from government officials who might give them priority in obtaining new licenses, which would put us at a disadvantage.  Although we inform our personnel that such practices are illegal, we can not assure you that our employees or other agents will not engage in such conduct for which we might be held responsible.  If our employees or other agents are found to have engaged in such practices, we could suffer severe penalties.

Failure to comply with the State Administration of Foreign Exchange regulations relating to the establishment of offshore special purpose companies by PRC residents may adversely affect our business operations.

On October 21, 2005, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange issued a new public notice which became effective on November 1, 2005. The notice requires PRC residents to register with the local State Administration of Foreign Exchange branch before establishing or controlling any company, referred to in the notice as a “special purpose offshore company”, outside of China for the purpose of capital financing. PRC residents who are shareholders of a special purpose offshore company established before November 1, 2005 were required to register with the local State Administration of Foreign Exchange Branch. Our beneficial owners need to comply with the relevant the State Administration of Foreign Exchange requirements in all material respects in connection with our investments and financing activities. If such beneficial owners fail to comply with the relevant the State Administration of Foreign Exchange requirements, such failure may subject the beneficial owners to fines and legal sanctions and may also adversely affect our business operations.

Because our assets and operations are located outside the United States and a majority of our officers and directors are non-United States citizens living outside of the United States, investors may experience difficulties in attempting to enforce judgments based upon United States federal securities laws against us and our directors. United States laws and/or judgments might not be enforced against us in foreign jurisdictions.

All of our operations are conducted through a subsidiary corporation organized and located outside of the United States, and all the assets of our subsidiary are located outside the United States. In addition, all of our officers and directors are foreign citizens. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible for U.S. investors to enforce judgments made by U.S. courts for civil liabilities against our operating entities or against any of our individual directors or officers. In addition, U. S. investors should not assume that courts in the countries in which our subsidiary is incorporated or where the assets of our subsidiary are located (i) would enforce judgments of U.S. courts obtained in actions against us or our subsidiary based upon the civil liability provisions of applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws or (ii) would enforce, in original actions, liabilities against us or our subsidiary based upon these laws.

The legal system in China has inherent uncertainties that may limit the legal protections available in the event of any claims or disputes with third parties.

The legal system in China is based on written statutes. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. Since 1979, the central government has promulgated laws and regulations dealing with economic matters such as foreign investment, corporate organization and governance, commerce, taxation and trade. As China’s foreign investment laws and regulations are relatively new and the legal system is still evolving, the interpretation of many laws, regulations and rules is not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involve uncertainties, which may limit the remedies available in the event of any claims or disputes with third parties. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.

The Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities.

We are dependent on our relationship with the local government in the province in which we operate our business.  Chinese government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership.  Our ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters.  We believe that our operations in China are in material compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. However, the central or local governments of these jurisdictions may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations.  Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof, and could require us to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese properties.

We may have difficulty establishing adequate management, legal and financial controls in the PRC.

The PRC historically has been deficient in Western style management and financial reporting concepts and practices, as well as in modern banking, computer and other control systems. We may have difficulty in hiring and retaining a sufficient number of qualified employees to work in the PRC. As a result of these factors, we may experience difficulty in establishing management, legal and financial controls, collecting financial data and preparing financial statements, books of account and corporate records and instituting business practices that meet Western standards.

The outbreak of any severe contagious diseases in China, if uncontrolled, could adversely affect our results of operations.

The outbreak of any server communicable disease in China, if uncontrolled, could adversely affect the overall business sentiments and environment in China, which in turn may lead to slower overall gross domestic product growth in China. As our sales are currently derived from our Chinese operations, any contraction or slow down in the growth of the gross domestic product of China may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and future growth. In addition, if any of our employees are infected or affected by any severe communicable diseases outbreak, it could adversely affect or disrupt our production at the relevant production facility and adversely affect our business operations as we may be required to close our production facilities to prevent the spread of the disease. The spread of any severe communicable disease in China may also affect the operations of our distributors and suppliers, causing delivery disruptions which could in turn adversely affect our operating results and share price.

Our production operations and capacity are likely to be adversely affected by the earthquake in Xian that occurred in the middle of 2008 .

An earthquake occurred in Xian, China in the middle of 2008.  The earthquake could adversely affect GEXN production operations and capacity. It is likely to take time to recover GEXN’s production operations and capacity .

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Note regarding forward looking statements

This annual report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These include statements about our expectations, beliefs, intentions or strategies for the future, which we indicate by words or phrases such as "anticipate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "will," "we believe," "the Company believes" "management believes" and similar language. The forward-looking statements are based on the current expectations of the Company and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, including those set forth in the discussion under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in this report. The actual results may differ materially from results anticipated in these forward-looking statements. We base the forward-looking statements on information currently available to us, and we assume no obligation to update them.

Investors are also advised to refer to the information in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, specifically Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K, in which we discuss in more detail various important factors that could cause actual results to differ from expected or historic results. It is not possible to foresee or identify all such factors. As such, investors should not consider any list of such factors to be an exhaustive statement of all risks and uncertainties or potentially inaccurate assumptions.

Except as otherwise indicated by the context, references in this Form 10-K to “we,”us,”our,”the Registrant”, “our Company,” or “the Company” are to Great East Bottles and Drinks (China) Holdings, Inc., a Florida corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to (i) “BVI” are to British Virgin Islands; (ii) “PRC” and “China” are to the Peoples Republic of China; (iii) “U.S. dollar,”$” and “US$” are to United States dollars; (iv) “RMB” are to Yuan Renminbi of China; (v) “Securities Act” are to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; and (vi) “Exchange Act” are to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP"). US GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.

We believe the following is among the most critical accounting policies that impact our consolidated financial statements. We suggest that our significant accounting policies, as described in our consolidated financial statements in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, be read in conjunction with this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

We recognize revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104. All of the following criteria must exist in order for us to recognize revenue:

1. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
2. Delivery has occurred;
3. The seller's price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and
4. Collectability is reasonably assured.
 
30

 
The majority of the Company's revenue results from sales contracts with direct customers and revenues are generated upon the shipment of goods. The Company's pricing structure is fixed and there are no rebate or discount programs. Management conducts credit background checks for new customers as a means to reduce the subjectivity of assuring collectability. Based on these factors, the Company believes that it can apply the provisions of SAB 104 with minimal subjectivity.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company does not expect that the adoption of any recent accounting pronouncements will have any material impact on its financial statements.

Revenues

Sales revenue increased from $4,133,828 in the last quarter of 2007 to $6,368,010 in the same period in 2008, representing a 54.0% increase. The increase in revenue was mainly due to the increase in demand of PET bottles from Coca Cola and Pepsi, which are our major customers.
 
31


Cost of sales and gross margin

Cost of sales increased from $2,954,273 in the last quarter of 2007 to $5,300,420 in the same period in 2008, representing a 79.42% increase. The increase was due to the increase in sales in the last quarter of 2008 as compared to the same period last year. We recorded a gross margin of 16.8% in the last quarter of 2008, a decrease of nearly 11.7% as compared to 28.5% in the same period last year. The decrease was mainly due to the increase in production costs, which lowered the gross profits.

Sales and marketing

Sales and marketing expenses increased by $67,108 or 428.3% from $15,667 in last quarter 2007 to $82,775 in the same period 2008. The increase was mainly due to the increase in selling expenses.

General and administrative

General and administrative expenses increased from $276,453 in the last quarter of 2007 to $513,548 for the same period 2008, representing a increase of $237,095 or 85.8%. The increase was mainly a result of increase in staff costs, including social insurance costs for staff.
 
Net income

Net income for the last quarter ended 2008 was $288,840 as compared to $874,399 in the same period 2007. The material decrease was mainly attributable to the increase in selling expenditures and staff costs during the period.

Revenues

Sales revenue increased from $24,410,570 in the twelve months of 2007 to $30,502,327 in the same period in 2008, representing a 24.96% increase. The increase in revenue was mainly due to the increase in demand of PET bottles from Coca Cola and Pepsi, which are our major customers.

Cost of sales and gross margin

Cost of sales increased from $18,950,517 in the twelve months of 2007 to $23,612,335 in the same period in 2008, representing a 24.6% increase. The increase was due to the increase in sales in the twelve months of 2008 as compared to the same period last year. We recorded a gross margin of 22.59% in the twelve months of 2008, an increase of 26.2% as compared to 22.4% in the same period last year. The increase was mainly due to the increase in production costs, which lowered gross profits.

Sales and marketing

Sales and marketing expenses increased by $68,443 or 130.8% from $52,343 in twelve months of 2007 to $120,786 in the same period 2008. The increase was mainly due to selling expenses.

General and administrative

General and administrative expenses increased from $1,430,781 in the twelve months of 2007 to $1,717,013 for the same period 2008, representing an increase of $286,232 or 20.0%. The increase was mainly due to significant increase in staff costs, including salary and insurance costs as a result of the implementation of the PRC Labor Contract Law commencing January 1, 2008.
 
33

 
Net income

Net income for the twelve months ended 2008 was $3,501,931 as compared to $2,996,195 in the same period 2007. The material increase was mainly attributable to the increase in sales and the improved in gross margin during the period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash

Our cash balance at December 31, 2008 was $69,958, representing a decrease of $51,616, compared with our cash balance of $121,574 as at December 31, 2007. The cash was mainly used to fund our operations.

Cash flow

Operating Activities

Net cash inflows from operating activities during the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 amounted to $6,078,451, representing a increase in inflow of $1,706,241 compared with net cash inflows from operating activities of $4,372,210 in the same period of 2007. The increase in cash inflow was mainly due to decrease in trade receivables and inventory and increase in notes payable as at December 31, 2008.

Investing Activities

Net cash outflow from investing activities increased from $1,482,236 for the twelve months ended 2007 to $7,625,282 for the same period of 2008, representing an increase of $6,143,046. The net cash outflows for both periods were mainly attributable to payments made for purchases of imported and domestic production equipments.
 
Financing Activities

Net cash inflow for financing activities was $397,408 for the twelve months of 2008, representing a increase of $4,344,015 over the net cash outflow of $3,946,607 recorded in the same period of 2007. The change was due to the decrease in amount due to related party for the period ended December 31, 2008.

Working capital

Our working capital increased by $72,088 to $520,257 at December 31, 2008 from $448,169 at December 31, 2007, mainly due to increase in net cash inflow from operating activities as well as increase in long term bank loan during the twelve months of 2008.
 
34


We currently generate our cash flow through production and sales of PET bottles and PET preforms in China. We believe that our cash flow generated from operations will be sufficient to sustain operations for at least the next 12 months. There is no identifiable expansion plan as of December 31, 2008, but from time to time, we may identify new expansion opportunities for which there will be a need for use of cash.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements

Inflation

Inflation has not had a material impact on our business and we do not expect inflation to have an impact on our business in the near future

Currency Exchange Fluctuations

All of the Companys revenues and a majority of its expenses in the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 were denominated in Renminbi (“RMB”), the currency of China, and were converted into US dollars at the exchange rate of 7.766 to 1. In the third quarter of 2005, the Renminbi began to rise against the US dollar. There can be no assurance that RMB-to-U.S. dollar exchange rates will remain stable. A devaluation of RMB relative to the U.S. dollar would adversely affect our business, consolidated financial condition and results of operations. We do not engage in currency hedging.
 
Item 7A.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
We are exposed to various market risks arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as foreign exchange fluctuations and interest rates, which could impact our results of operations and financial position. We do not currently engage in any hedging or other market risk management tools, and we do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
 
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
 
Fluctuations in the rate of exchange between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, primarily the Chinese Renminbi, could adversely affect our financial results. During the period ended September 30, 2008, approximately all of our sales are denominated in foreign currencies. We expect that foreign currencies will continue to represent a similarly significant percentage of our sales in the future. Selling, marketing and administrative costs related to these sales are largely denominated in the same respective currency, thereby mitigating our transaction risk exposure. We therefore believe that the risk of a significant impact on our operating income from foreign currency fluctuations is not substantial. However, for sales not denominated in U.S. dollars, if there is an increase in the rate at which a foreign currency is exchanged for U.S. dollars, it will require more of the foreign currency to equal a specified amount of U.S. dollars than before the rate increase. In such cases and if we price our products in the foreign currency, we will receive less in U.S. dollars than we did before the rate increase went into effect. If we price our products in U.S. dollars and competitors price their products in local currency, an increase in the relative strength of the U.S. dollar could result in our price not being competitive in a market where business is transacted in the local currency.

All of our sales denominated in foreign currencies are denominated in the Chinese Renminbi. Our principal exchange rate risk therefore exists between the U.S. dollar and this currency. Fluctuations from the beginning to the end of any given reporting period result in the re-measurement of our foreign currency-denominated receivables and payables, generating currency transaction gains or losses that impact our non-operating income/expense levels in the respective period and are reported in other (income) expense, net in our combined consolidated financial statements. We do not currently hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We may, however, hedge such exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the future.
 
Interest Rate Risk
 
Changes in interest rates may affect the interest paid (or earned) and therefore affect our cash flows and results of operations. However, we do not believe that this interest rate change risk is significant.
 
Inflation
 
Inflation has not had a material impact on the Company's business in recent years.
 
Currency Exchange Fluctuations
 
All of the Company's revenues are denominated in Chinese Renminbi, while its expenses are denominated primarily in Chinese Renminbi ("RMB"). The value of the RMB-to-U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions. Since 1994, the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies, including U.S. dollars, has been based on rates set by the People's Bank of China, which are set daily based on the previous day's inter-bank foreign exchange market rates and current exchange rates on the world financial markets. Since 1994, the official exchange rate for the conversion of RMB to U.S. dollars had generally been stable and RMB had appreciated slightly against the U.S. dollar. However, on July 21, 2005, the Chinese government changed its policy of pegging the value of RMB to the U.S. dollar. Under the new policy, RMB may fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. Recently there has been increased political pressure on the Chinese government to decouple the RMB from the United States dollar. At the recent quarterly regular meeting of People's Bank of China, its Currency Policy Committee affirmed the effects of the reform on RMB exchange rate. Since February 2006, the new currency rate system has been operated; the currency rate of RMB has become more flexible while basically maintaining stable and the expectation for a larger appreciation range is shrinking. The Company has never engaged in currency hedging operations and has no present intention to do so.

Concentration of Credit Risk
 
Credit risk represents the accounting loss that would be recognized at the reporting date if counterparties failed completely to perform as contracted. Concentrations of credit risk (whether on or off balance sheet) that arise from financial instruments exist for groups of customers or counterparties when they have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions as described below:
 
1.
The Company's business is characterized by new product and service development and evolving industry standards and regulations. Inherent in the Company's business are various risks and uncertainties, including the impact from the volatility of the stock market, limited operating history, uncertain profitability and the ability to raise additional capital.
 
2.
Approximately 100% of the Company's revenue is derived from China. Changes in laws and regulations, or their interpretation, or the imposition of confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, devaluations of currency or the nationalization or other expropriation of private enterprises could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
3.
If the Company is unable to derive any revenues from China, it would have a significant, financially disruptive effect on the normal operations of the Company.

(T) Controls and Procedures Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation as of December 31, 2008 of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such terms are defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer has concluded that during the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f).  Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. In connection with management's assessment of our internal control over financial reporting as required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we identified the following material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008:
 
 
1.
Insufficient accounting personnel with the appropriate level of accounting knowledge, experience and training in the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States commensurate with financial statement reporting requirements.
 
As a result, we have concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting are not effective as of December 31, 2008.
 
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can only provide reasonable assurances with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. In addition, any evaluation of effectiveness for future periods is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions in the future.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2008 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

There has not been since January 1, 2008 nor is there currently pending any transaction or series of similar transactions to which we were or are to be a party in which the amount involved exceeded $120,000 and in which any director, executive officer, holder of more than 5% of our Common Stock or any member of the immediate family of any of these persons had or will have a direct or indirect material interest other than the following.:

On March 10, 2008, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Citysky and Guy A-Tsan Chung, the sole shareholder of Citysky to acquire 100% of the outstanding equity of Citysky from the Shareholder in consideration for 6,492,000 pre-split shares of our common stock.  The Share Exchange was consummated on March 10, 2008.

We had amounts of $1,094,679 due to GEBD from Great East Packing Holdings Limited (“GEPH”), a related company, consisting of short term borrowing. GEPH is considered as a related company because of common ownership with Guy A-Tsan Chung. These short term borrowing and advances bears 9% interest per annum. Interest income accrued for the year ended December 31,2008 is included in our audited financial statements.

Item 14.
Principal Accountant Fees and Services

On April 18, 2008, the Company dismissed its principal independent accountants, Randall N. Drake CPA, PA (“Drake”) . The decision to dismiss Drake as the Companys principal independent accountant was approved by the Companys Board of Directors on April 18, 2008. Drakes report on the Companys financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the period from January 1, 2006 through the date of Drakes dismissal, there were no disagreements with Drake on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Drake, would have caused Drake to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report on the financial statements for such period. None of the “reportable events described under Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K occurred within the period from January 1, 2006 through April 18, 2008.

On January 14, 2008, the Company engaged Madsen & Associates CPA Inc. (“Madsen”) as its new principal independent accountants, effective immediately upon the dismissal of Drake. The decision to engage Madsen as the Company’s principal independent accountants was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on April 18, 2008.
 
During the Company’s most two  fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 and through January 14, 2008, the Company did not consult with Madsen on (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that may be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and Madsen did not provide either a written report or oral advice to the Company that was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing, or financial reporting issue; or (ii) the subject of any disagreement, as defined in Item 304 (a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions, or a reportable event within the meaning set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.
 
The Company paid the following fees to its auditors during its fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007:

We did not incur any tax fees with Madsen or Drake for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

We have audited the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets of Great East Bottles and Drinks (China) Holdings, Inc.  (the Company) as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the condensed consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended.  These condensed 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 standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”).  Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance 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 audit 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.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used, significant estimates made by management and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, these condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material aspects, the condensed consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the condensed consolidated results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

Great East Bottles & Drinks (China) Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) are a group of manufacturers producing beverage bottles which mainly is made of PET, a type of plastic with desirable characteristic for packaging including clear and wide range of color and shape, tough, good resistance to heat, moisture and dilute acid. Beverage bottles are manufactured and sold in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”) for bottling of Carbonated Soft Drinks (“CSD”) for world brands and these beverage bottles are referred to as PET CSD bottles.

NOTE 2  RECAPITALIZATION AND REORGANIZATION

On March 10, 2008, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Citysky and the sole shareholder of Citysky.  Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired 100% ownership of Citysky from the Shareholder.  Consideration by the Company was the issuance of 6,492,000 shares of its common stock to Citysky (the “Exchange Shares”) in exchange for 100% ownership of Citysky. Immediately upon completion of the share exchange transaction through issuance of the Exchange Shares, the Company had a total of approximately 8,000,000 shares of its common stock issued and outstanding. The Share Exchange Agreement closed subject to the provisions and conditions of the Share Exchange Agreement and the discretion of the parties.  The transaction set forth in the Share Exchange Agreement closed on March 10, 2008.

The above stock exchange transaction resulted in the sole shareholder of Citysky obtaining a majority voting interest in the Company. Generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America require that the Company whose shareholders retain the majority interest in a combined business be treated as the acquirer for accounting purposes. Consequently, the stock exchange transaction has been accounted for as a recapitalization of Citysky as Citysky acquired a controlling equity interest in the Company as of March 10, 2008. The reverse acquisition process utilizes the capital structure of the Company and the assets and liabilities of Citysky recorded at historical cost.

Citysky is the continuing operating entity for financial reporting purposes, and the financial statements prior to March 10, 2008 represent Citysky’s financial position and results of operations. Although Citysky is deemed to be the acquiring corporation for financial accounting and reporting purposes, the legal status of the Company as the surviving corporation did not change.  
 
F-5


Subsequent to completion of the reverse takeover transaction, the Company changed its name to Great East Bottles & Drinks (China) Holdings, Inc..


NOTE 3  PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Company’s subsidiaries (see Note 1). The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in the United States of America, and all significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The functional currency for the majority of the Companys operations is the Renminbi (“RMB”), while the reporting currency is the US Dollar.


NOTE 4  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)  Economic and Political Risk

The Company’s major operations are conducted in the People’s Republic of China (“China” or “PRC”). Accordingly, the political, economic, and legal environments in the PRC, as well as the general state of the PRC’s economy may influence the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.

The Company’s major operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic, and legal environment. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

(b)  Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  The Company maintains bank accounts in Hong Kong and China through its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

(c)  Accounts Receivable

Trade receivables are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred. The Company has recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $55,082 at December 31, 2007. The allowance was charged off against gross receivable during the year ended December 31, 2008 as the amount is determined to be uncollectible. There were no additional bad debts incurred for accounts receivable during the year ended December 31, 2008.

(d)  Inventories

Inventories consisting of raw materials, work-in-progress, goods in transit and finished goods are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Finished goods are comprised of direct materials, direct labor and a portion of overhead. Inventory costs are calculated using a weighted average, first in first out (FIFO) method of accounting.  The Company has recorded a provision for slow moving inventories of $93,768 during the year ended December 31, 2008.

(e)  Property, Plant and Equipment, Net

Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to the statement of income as incurred, whereas significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. The cost and the related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the statement of income.

(f)  Land Use Rights

According to the law of PRC, the government owns all the land in the PRC. Companies or individuals are authorized to possess and use the land only through land use rights granted by the PRC government for 40 to 50 years.
 
F-6


Land use rights represent the cost for purchasing the rights to use the leasehold land for the production facilities of Hangzhou Great East Packaging Co., Limited and Nanjing Great East Packaging Co., Limited.  It is stated at cost less amortization. Land use rights are being amortized using the straight-line method over the lease term of 50 years.

Amortization expenses for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 were $9,244 and $8,410, respectively.

(g)  Depreciation and Amortization

The Company provides for depreciation of plant and equipment principally by use of the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. Plant and equipment are depreciated over the following estimated useful lives:

Building
20 years
Leasehold improvement
5 years
Office equipment
5 years
Machinery and equipment
5 – 15 years
Transportation equipment
5 years

The depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 amounted to $1,735,831 and $2,019,790, respectively.

(h)  Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. It is reasonably possible that these assets could become impaired as a result of technology or other industry changes. Determination of recoverability of assets to be held and used is by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. There were no impairments of long-lived assets for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007.

(i)  Income Tax

The Company has adopted the provisions of statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which incorporates the use of the asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. The Company allows for recognition of deferred tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future realization is uncertain.

In accordance with the relevant tax laws and regulations of PRC, the applicable corporation income tax rate was 25% for the year ended December 31, 2008 and ranges from 27% to 33% for the year ended December 31, 2007.  At times generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company to recognize certain income and expenses that do not conform to the timing and conditions allowed by the PRC. The Company’s provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 were $948,949 and $783,283 respectively.

(j)  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company values its financial instruments as required by SFAS No. 157, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments . The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company, using available market information or other appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of fair value. Consequently, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized or would be paid in a current market exchange.
 
The Company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other deposits and prepayments, amount due from a related party, accounts payable, short-term bank loans, other payables and accruals, taxes payable, and amount due to a related party.
 
As of the balance sheet dates, the estimated fair values of the financial instruments were not materially different from their carrying values as presented, due to the short maturities of these instruments and the fact that the interest rates on the borrowings approximate those that would have been available for loans of similar remaining maturity and risk profiles at respective year ends.
 
F-7


(k)  Revenue Recognition

Revenue represents the invoiced value of goods sold recognized upon the shipment of goods to customers. Revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met:

a)  
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
b)  
Delivery has occurred,
c)  
The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and
d)  
Collectibility is reasonably assured.

(l)  Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.  As of December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, there were no dilutive securities outstanding.

(m)  Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

(n)  Retirement Benefits

The country of PRC mandates companies to contribute funds into the national retirement system, which benefits qualified employees based on where they were born within the country. The Company pays the required payment for qualified employees of the Company as a payroll tax expense. Very few employees in the Company fall under the mandatory conditions requiring the Company to pay as a payroll tax expense into the retirement system of the PRC.

The Company’s PRC subsidiaries are required to make appropriations to staff welfare fund, based on after-tax net income determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC GAAP”). Appropriations to the staff welfare fund are made at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The staff welfare fund is established for the purpose of providing employee facilities and other collective benefits to the employees and is non-distributable other than in liquidation.

The Company provides no other retirement benefits to its employees.

(o)  Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income are required to be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements.  Comprehensive income includes net income and the foreign currency translation gain, net of tax.

(p)  Foreign Currency Translation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States Dollars (US$). The functional currency of the Company is the Renminbi (RMB). Capital accounts of the consolidated financial statements are translated into United States dollars from RMB at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates as of balance sheet date. Income and expenditures are translated at the average exchange rate of the year.  The translation rates are as follows:

   
2008
   
2007
 
             
Year end RMB : US$ exchange rate
    0.1458       0.1370  
Average yearly RMB : US$ exchange rate
    0.1446       0.1315  
 
F-8

 
On July 21, 2005, the PRC changed its foreign currency exchange policy from a fixed RMB/US$ exchange rate into a flexible rate under the control of the PRC’s government.

The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions.  No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at the rates used in translation.

(q)  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Below is a listing of the most recent accounting standards and their effect on the Company.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51”, which establishes accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest and the valuation of retained non-controlling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. The Statement also establishes reporting requirements that provide sufficient disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the non-controlling owners. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS 160 is not expected to have any effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141®, “Business Combinations”, which replaces SFAS 141, “Business Combinations”. SFAS 141R retains the fundamental requirements in SFAS 141 that the acquisition method of accounting (which SFAS 141 called the purchase method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. SFAS 141R requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the cquire at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions. This replaces SFAS 141’s cost-allocation process, which required the cost of an acquisition to be allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. SFAS 141R also requires the acquirer in a business combination achieved in stages (sometimes referred to as a step acquisition) to recognize the identifiable assets and liabilities, as well as the noncontrolling interest in the cquire, at the full amounts of their fair values (or other amounts determined in accordance with SFAS 141R). SFAS 141R applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. An entity may not apply it before that date. The Company believes that there would be no material impact on our financial statements upon adoption of this standard.
  
In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 142-3 “Determination of the useful life of Intangible Assets”, which amends the factors a company should consider when developing renewal assumptions used to determine the useful life of an intangible asset under SFAS142. This FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. SFAS 142 requires companies to consider whether renewal can be completed without substantial cost or material modification of the existing terms and conditions associated with the asset. FSP FAS 142-3 replaces the previous useful life criteria with a new requirement—that an entity consider its own historical experience in renewing similar arrangements. If historical experience does not exist, then the Company would consider market participant assumptions regarding renewal including 1) highest and best use of the asset by a market participant, and 2) adjustments for other entity-specific factors included in SFAS 142.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158 “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans — an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132®”. SFAS 158 requires plan sponsors of defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans (collectively, “postretirement benefit plans”) to fully recognize the funded status of their postretirement benefit plans in the statement of financial position, measure the fair value of plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the fiscal year-end statement of financial position and provide additional disclosures.  The Company believes that implementation of SFAS 158 will have little or no impact on our consolidated financial statements since we have no applicable plans.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” This Statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States.
  
In considering all recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, EITF, AICPA or SEC, the Company does not expect that the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements will have a material effect on the Company’s future reported financial position or results of operations.
