NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2008
(UNAUDITED)
 
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
 
Kandi Technologies, Corp. (formerly Stone Mountain Resources, Inc.) (“the Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 31, 2004. On June 29, 2007, Stone Mountain Resources, Inc. changed its name to Kandi Technologies, Corp.
 
On June 29, 2007, pursuant to the share exchange agreement between Stone Mountain Resources, Inc. (“Stone Mountain”), Continental Development Limited, (“Continental”) and Excelvantage (Continental’s sole shareholder), Stone Mountain issued 12,000,000 shares of its common stock to Excelvantage, in exchange for 100% of the common stock of Continental. As a result of the share exchange, Continental became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Stone Mountain. The Company conducts its operations through its wholly owned subsidiary, Zhejiang Kandi Vehicles Co. Ltd., a People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) company.
 
The Company closed on its acquisition of 100% of the shares of Kandi Special Vehicles Co., Ltd. (“KSV”) on June 24, 2008 upon which KSV became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141 “Business Combinations,” the consolidated statements of income include the results of operations of KSV from the acquisition date through September 30, 2008.
 
On May 9, 2008, the Company sold Zhejiang Yongkang Top Import & Export Co., Ltd. (“Dingji”), a subsidiary of the Company, to certain individuals. In accordance with SFAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long−Lived Assets,” the results of operations of Dingji as of the disposal date May 9, 2008 have been removed from the detail line items to the “discontinued operation” of the Company’s financial statements.
 
The Company’s primary operations are the design, development, manufacturing, and commercializing of all-terrain vehicles, go-karts, and specialized automobile related products for the PRC and global export markets. Sales are made to dealers in Asia, North America, Europe and Australia.
 
NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2008 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of operations. Results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2007 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with that report.

NOTE 4 – USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

NOTE 7 – 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 similarly 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. There were no potentially dilutive securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007.

NOTE 8 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, notes receivable, prepayments and prepaid expenses, other receivables due from employees, accounts payable due to employees and related parties, other payables and accrued liabilities, notes payable, short-term band loans and customer deposits. Management has estimated that the carrying amount approximates fair value due to their short-term nature.

NOTE 9 – NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (R), Business Combinations. SFAS No. 141 (R) requires an acquirer to measure the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquire at their fair values on the acquisition date, with goodwill being the excess value over the net identifiable assets acquired. The calculation of earnings per share will continue to be based on income amounts attributable to the parent. SFAS No.141 (R) is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. We have not yet determined the effect on our consolidated financial statements, if any, upon adoption of SFAS No.141 (R). SFAS 141(R) will significantly affect the accounting for future business combinations and we will determine the accounting as new combinations are determined.

NOTE 9 – NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED)

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. This Statement establishes accounting and reporting standards that require the ownership interests in subsidiaries’ non-parent owners be clearly presented in the equity section of the balance sheet; requires the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income; requires that changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary be accounted for consistently; requires that when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary be initially measured at fair value and the gain or loss on the deconsolidation of the subsidiary be measured using the fair value of any noncontrolling equity; requires that entities provide disclosures that clearly identify the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2008. The Company has not determined the impact, if any, SFAS No. 160 will have on its financial statements.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 161"), which amends SFAS No.133 and expands disclosures to include information about the fair value of derivatives, related credit risks and a company's strategies and objectives for using derivatives. SFAS No. 161 is effective for fiscal periods beginning on or after November 15, 2008. The Company is currently in the process of assessing the impact that SFAS No. 161 will have on the disclosures in its financial statements.

NOTE 16 – TAXES

(a) Corporation Income Tax (“CIT”)

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes ("FIN 48"), an interpretation of FASB statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. The interpretation addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements.

Under FIN 48, we may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures. As of September 30, 2008, the Company does not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various states. The Company is subject to U.S. federal or state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years after 2005. During the periods open to examination, the Company has net operating loss and tax credit carry forwards for U.S. federal and state tax purposes that have attributes from close September 30, 2008 the Company was not aware of any pending income tax examinations by China tax authorities.  The Company's policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax provisions as an income tax expense. As of September 30, 2008, the Company has no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress of China approved the Corporate Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China (the “new CIT law”), which went into effect on January 1, 2008. In accordance with the relevant tax laws and regulations of PRC, the Company’s applicable corporate income tax rate in the PRC is 25%. However, according to certain rules in the tax laws, from the time that a company has its first profitable tax year, a foreign-invested company is exempt from corporate income tax for the following two years of operations and is then entitled to a 50% tax reduction for the succeeding three years. The Company’s first profitable year for income tax purposes as a foreign-invested company was 2007. KSV is a subsidiary of the Company and its applicable corporate income tax rate is 25%.

NOTE 16 – TAXES (CONTINUED)

Under the new CIT law, the corporate income tax rate applicable to the Company starting from January 1, 2008 is 25%.

Income before income tax expense of $4,086,323 and $3,930,465 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 respectively was attributed to subsidiaries with operations in the PRC.

NOTE 17 – CONTINGENCIES

In 2006, the Company brought a legal action against Zhejiang Yuegong Steel Structure Co. Ltd. and Zhejiang Jinhua No.1 Construction Co., Ltd. for their delay in the construction in the Jinhua industrial district. According to the judge's report from the local court in Jinhua, PRC, on December 5, 2006, the Company prevailed in the lawsuit and Zhejiang Yuegong steel Structure Co. and Zhejiang Jinhua No.1 Construction Co., Ltd. will be required to pay $186,331 in damages to the Company. However, the two defendants appealed the ruling to a higher level court and the Company has not received the compensation as of September 30, 2008. Considering the uncertainties of the legal proceeding, the Company did not record a contingent gain for this at September 30, 2008.

NOTE 18 – COMMITMENT

In 2008, the Company signed construction contracts to construct five punching workshops. Total commitments related to the contracts are estimated to be $380,000.

 Revenues. For the three months ended September 30, 2008, our revenues increased approximately 5% from $8,808,836 to $9,261,033 relative to the same period ended September 30, 2007. The increase in revenues is attributable to the stable increased sales of our go-karts and the two new product lines launched in the United States.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales decreased from $7,315,162 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $6,966,103, or approximately 4.8%, for the same period in 2008. In terms of cost of sales as a percentage of revenues, our cost of sales for this quarter in 2008 was approximately 75% of net revenues as compared to approximately 83% of net revenues for the same quarter in 2007. The main reason for the decrease in cost of sales was due to improvements in product quality, improvements in energy efficiency in our manufacturing process and our ability to sell our vehicles at higher prices.
 
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased approximately 54% from $1,493,674 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $2,294,930 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. This increase in gross profit was primarily due to the increased revenues and reduction in cost of sales.

25


Selling and Marketing Expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2008, selling and marketing expenses increased approximately 28% from $179,386 to $229,795 relative to the three months ended September 30, 2007. The increase was primarily due to the expenses associated with the expansion of our sales department in conjunction with the rollout of new products in the U.S.

General and Administrative Expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2008, general and administrative expenses increased approximately 42% from $228,603 to $324,672 relative to the three months ended September 30, 2007. The increase was primarily due to the increase in expenses for employee benefits.

Research and Development Expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2008, research and development expenses increased approximately 1,182% from $12,033 to $230,023 relative to the three months ended September 30, 2007. The increase is attributable to the expenses incurred in conjunction with our new products.

Discontinued Operation. For the three months ended September 30, 2008, discontinued operations income decreased from $(62,820) to NIL. Dingji was sold to certain individuals as of May 9, 2008. See Note19.

Income Tax Provision. On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress of the PRC adopted a new corporate income tax law in its fifth plenary session. The new corporate income tax law unifies the application scope, tax rate, tax deduction and preferential policy for both domestic and foreign-invested enterprises.  The new corporate income tax law became effective on January 1, 2008.  The Company had a tax benefit of $7,581 for the three months ended September 30, 2008, compared to a tax expense of NIL for the same period of 2007.
 
Net Income.  Net income increased approximately 16.4% from $871,498 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $1,014,545 for the three months ended September 30, 2008.  This increase in net income was primarily due to the increase in both our revenues and gross profits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Cash Flows

Nine Months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007
        
Net cash flow provided by operating activities was $5,010,972 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, as compared to $3,256,724 in cash flow used in operating activities in the same period of 2007. The increase of net cash flow provided in operating activities was mainly due to the increase in the net income from $3,727,193 to $4,495,065 as of September 30, 2007 and 2008, respectively, and an increase in accounts payable of $2,794,238.

Working Capital
 
Our working capital was $(10,070,184) at September 30, 2008, as compared to $(11,976,235) at December 31, 2007.  The increase in working capital at September 30, 2008 was mainly attributed to the increase in inventories and notes receivable.
 
The Company currently generates its cash flow through operations and the Company believes that its cash flow generated from operations will be sufficient to sustain operations for the next twelve months.  From time to time, the Company may require extra funding through financing activities and investments for expansion.
 
Accounting Policies

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:

·
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
 
·
Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered;
 
·
The seller's price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and
 
·
Collectibility is reasonably assured.
 
Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
 
Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made.  Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, notes receivable, due from related parties, prepayments and prepaid expenses, other receivables, due from employees, accounts payable, due to employees, other payables and accrued liabilities, notes payable, short-term band loans, and customer deposits. Management has estimated that the carrying amount approximates fair value due to their short-term nature.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (R), Business Combinations. SFAS No. 141 (R) requires an acquirer to measure the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquire at their fair values on the acquisition date, with goodwill being the excess value over the net identifiable assets acquired. The calculation of earnings per share will continue to be based on income amounts attributable to the parent. SFAS No.141 (R) is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. We have not yet determined the effect on our consolidated financial statements, if any, upon adoption of SFAS No.141 (R). SFAS 141(R) will significantly affect the accounting for future business combinations and we will determine the accounting as new combinations are determined.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. This Statement establishes accounting and reporting standards that require the ownership interests in subsidiaries’ non-parent owners be clearly presented in the equity section of the balance sheet; requires the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income; requires that changes in a parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its subsidiary be accounted for consistently; requires that when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary be initially measured at fair value and the gain or loss on the deconsolidation of the subsidiary be measured using the fair value of any noncontrolling equity; and requires that entities provide disclosures that clearly identify the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after December 15, 2008. The Company has not determined the impact, if any, SFAS No. 160 will have on its financial statements.
 
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 161"), which amends SFAS No.133 and expands disclosures to include information about the fair value of derivatives, related credit risks and a company's strategies and objectives for using derivatives. SFAS No. 161 is effective for fiscal periods beginning on or after November 15, 2008. The Company is currently in the process of assessing the impact that SFAS No. 161 will have on the disclosures in its financial statements.
 
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures.
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
The Company maintains a system of disclosure controls and procedures that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in this Form 10-Q, and in other reports required to be filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms for such filings. Management of the Company, under the direction of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, reviewed and performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15a(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2008. Based on that review and evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, along with other key management of the Company, have determined that the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date. The basis for this determination was that management has identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which management views as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures.  
 
The Company established remediation plans in January 2008 and is in the process of implementing those plans to address our material weaknesses.
 
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
 
None.
