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
3 – PRINCIPLES

|
(iii) |

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.

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%.

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.

OPERATION
On
May 9,
2008, the Company, through its PRC subsidiary Zhejiang Kandi Vehicles Co. Ltd.,
entered into a disposition agreement with certain individuals. Pursuant to
that
agreement, the Company agreed to sell all of its interest in Dingji to certain
individuals for $729,384, resulting in a gain of $361,096. This transaction
was
completed on May 9, 2008. Thereafter, Dingji was no longer a consolidated
subsidiary of the Company. In accordance with SFAS 144, “Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” the results of operations of
Dingji are removed from the detail line items in the Company's financial
statements and presented separately as “discontinued operation.” The losses from
discontinued operation were $33,396 and $201,161 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The gains from disposition of
discontinued operation of $361,096 are reflected in the Company’s condensed
consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income for the nine months
ended September 30, 2008.

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

and Marketing Expenses.

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.

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. Moreover,
the
increase in cash flow was partially offset by cash out flow of an increase
in
inventories of $5,265,108.
Net
cash
flow used in investing activities was $8,002,307 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2008, as compared to $11,317,552 in the same period of 2007.
Uses
of cash flow for investing activities off set in the nine months period ended
September 30, 2008 included the construction of manufacturing facilities, the
purchase of associated machinery and equipment, and the issuance of notes
receivables.
Net
cash
flow provided by financing activities was $5,631,258 in the nine months ended
September 30, 2008, as compared to $7,883,220 in the same period of 2007. The
net cash flow provided by financing activities resulted from the collection
of
loan payments and interest owed to the Company for the nine months ended
September 30, 2008 and 2007.
28
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.
29
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.

Item
1A. Risk Factors.
As
of the
date of this filing, there have been no material changes from the risk factors
previously disclosed in our “Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K for the period ended
December 31, 2007. An investment in our common stock involves various risks.
When considering an investment in our company, you should consider carefully
all
of the risk factors described in our most recent Form 10-K. These risks and
uncertainties are not the only ones facing us and there may be additional
matters that we are unaware of or that we currently consider immaterial. All
of
these could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows and, thus, the value of an investment in our
company.
