NOTE 2 – PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The unaudited interim financial statements of the Company and the Company’s subsidiaries (see Note 1) for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 have been prepared pursuant to the rules & regulations of the SEC. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the following disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The functional currency for the majority of the Company’s operations is the Renminbi (“RMB”), while the reporting currency is the US Dollar.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2009, the results of its operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008.

The results of operations for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year period.
 
 

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)
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.

(b)
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 overheads. Inventory costs are calculated using a weighted average, first in first out (FIFO) method of accounting.

(c)
Revenue Recognition

Revenue represents the invoiced value of goods sold and is recognized upon the shipment of goods to customers, and when all of the following criteria are met:
 
i)  
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
ii)  
Delivery has occurred,
iii)  
The seller's price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and
iv)  
Collectibility is reasonably assured.

(d)
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 September 30, 2009 and 2008, there were no dilutive securities outstanding.

 (e)
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.
 
As of September 30, 2009, the Company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other deposits and prepayments, accounts payable, short-term bank loans, other payables and accruals, taxes payable, and amount due to a related party.  The estimated fair values of the financial instruments as of the balance sheet date 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 period/year ends.

 (f)
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 condensed 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:

September 30, 2009
   
December 31, 2008
   
September 30, 2008
 
 
                 
Year end RMB : US$ exchange rate
    0.1467       0.1458       0.1454  
Average yearly RMB : US$ exchange rate
    0.1461       0.1446       0.1431  
                         
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.

 (g)
Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

 (h)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Below is a listing of the most recent accounting standards and their effect on the Company.

In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables that are outside the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance. Under the new guidance, when vendor specific objective evidence or third party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, a best estimate of the selling price is required to separate deliverables and allocate arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. This authoritative guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010 (early adoption is permitted). The Company is currently assessing the impact on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles - a replacement of SFAS 162 (SFAS No. 168), establishing codification, which integrates and categorizes all guidance by standard setters within levels A through D of the previous GAAP hierarchy. SFAS No. 168 will replace all existing GAAP for non-governmental entities and will establish a new hierarchy of GAAP, both authoritative and non-authoritative. SFAS No. 168 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009 and will be adopted by the Company beginning in the forth quarter of its fiscal year 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165,Subsequent Events (SFAS No. 165), which updates previous guidance under GAAP by replacing type “1” and type “2” with “recognized” and “unrecognized,” and requires disclosure in financial statements of the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. SFAS No. 165 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009 and was adopted by the Company beginning in the third quarter of its fiscal year 2009. The adoption of SFAS No. 165 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) SFAS No. 157-4, Fair Value Measurements (FSP No. 157-4), which supersedes FSP SFAS 157-3 and provides additional guidance on estimating fair value when volume and level of transaction activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. FSP SFAS No. 157-4 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009 and was adopted by the Company beginning in the third quarter of its fiscal year 2009. The adoption of FSP SFAS No. 157-4 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
          
In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments (FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2”). FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance in SFAS 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, for debt securities and the presentation and disclosure requirements of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The adoption of FSP 115-2/124-2 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.

In October 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS 157-3, Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active (FSP 157-3”). FSP 157-3 clarified the application of FAS 157. FSP 157-3 demonstrated how the fair value of a financial asset is determined when the market for that financial asset is inactive. FSP 157-3 was effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements had not been issued. The implementation of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flow.

Our cash balance at September 30, 2009 was $521,674, representing an increase of $228,045 or 78%, compared with our cash balance of $293,629 as at September 30, 2008.
 
Cash flow
 
Operating Activities
 
Net cash inflows from operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 amounted to $4,601,709, representing an increase in inflow of $1,673,506 compared with net cash inflows from operating activities of $2,928,203 in the same period of 2008. The increase in cash inflow was primarily due to increase in accounts payable and decrease in amount due from a related party during the period ended September 30, 2009.
 
Investing Activities
 
Net cash outflow from investing activities decreased from $5,218,181 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 to $1,877,472 for the same period of 2009, representing a decrease of 64%. Net cash outflows from investing activities decreased as fewer acquisitions of new machines were incurred in 2009.
 
Financing Activities
 
Net cash flow used in financing activities was $2,397,544 for the nine months ended September 30 2009, representing a decrease of $4,553,340 over the net cash inflow of $2,155,796 recorded in the same period of 2008. The change was due to the decrease in our loan drawn down and increase in loan repayment and pledged deposits required by bank detailed in our financial statements for period ended September 30, 2009.
 
Our working capital increased by $2,408,357 to $2,928,614 at September 30, 2009 from $520,257 at December 31, 2008, primarily due to the increase in deposits, prepaid expenses and other receivables, and pledged deposits in 2009. 
 
We currently generate our cash flow through production and sales of PET CSD bottles and PET CSD 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 September 30, 2009, but from time to time, we may identify new expansion opportunities for which there will be a need for use of cash.

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 Company’s revenues and a majority of its expenses in the three months ended September 30, 2009 were denominated in Renminbi (“RMB”), the currency of China, and were converted into US dollars at the exchange rate of 6.835 to 1.  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 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
 
Our Chief Executive Officer and acting Chief Financial Officer ("Certifying Officers") maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information, which is required to be disclosed, is accumulated and communicated to management in a timely manner. Under the supervision and with the participation of management, our Certifying Officers evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by the filing of this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective. 
 
Changes in internal controls were addressed at a formal meeting of the Company’s executive officers that was held on June 12, 2009 at its corporate offices in Hong Kong.  At this meeting internal controls were evaluated and changes were addressed for implementation.  
 
It was previously reported that there were insufficient accounting personnel with a lack of the appropriate accounting knowledge, experience and training in the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States that would be commensurate with financial reporting requirements.
 
To address this issue management instituted a new policy whereby the accountants employed by the Company would provide additional training to the employees directly responsible for providing the information as well as assembling the data in the proper format for GAAP financials.  In addition, management has decided to seek new software to facilitate the handling of all financial data as well as the accumulation of the data in a format more user friendly to the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with GAAP.

Management has begun to convene meetings among its top executives to address budgeting issues.  Since the Company was private for over fourteen years budgeting was never formally addressed.  The Company has recently begun to utilize an outside financial team to assist in the preparation of the proper budget forecasts.
 
Changes in internal controls

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
