ITEM 1

BUSINESS

Overview

We are a leading provider in the People’s Republic of China (“ PRC ” or “ China ”) and Republic of China (“ROC” or “Taiwan”) of English-language instruction and educational services to children for whom Chinese is the primary language. Our focus is on children between two and twelve years old. In 2007 we taught or provided educational materials for approximately 1,300,000 students at over 7,430 locations through our franchise and cooperative school operations.

We commenced operations in 1986 as an English-language school, and since then we have expanded our franchise operations to provide bilingual kindergarten instruction, computer training, and tutorial services. In September 1999, we began offering a variety of multimedia, including educational videos, textbooks, workbooks, and educational software, authored by us as fully functional, stand-alone products or as supplements to our classroom-based and Internet-based instruction.

English is the language of international business, and we believe a working knowledge of English has become increasingly important to long-term success throughout the world. Because English is becoming more prevalent around the world, we believe that there is growing demand for bilingual instruction in Chinese and English throughout a child’s educational process. As more parents and students seek such bilingual instruction for educational purposes, the English-language-instruction market will experience significant growth.

As part of our efforts to provide superior English-language instruction, we have worked with numerous universities to introduce foreign teachers into Taiwan from countries such as the United States, Canada, and England. We provide comprehensive training regimens and supportive plans for all of our teachers.

A significant part of our strategy is to design and market our innovative educational materials. These include English publications for students three to eight years old, supplemental English materials for students seven to eight years old, and children’s English materials for students seven to twelve years old. We have won awards relating to our products and services from major cities and educational bureaus including Taipei City, Taipei County, Taoyuan County, Taichung County, and Kaohsiung County.

Our Philosophy of Education

Teaching young children English is not simply language instruction; we must also consider the learning group’s social and language development. Kid Castle aims at cultivating a mature child, not just teaching a skill. We understand that language learning has close connections with all learning for young children.

Therefore, we have designed our teaching system following these significant principles:

We start with the respective skills and abilities that children already have because the teaching system must consider adaptability;

	·	We encourage interaction because the ultimate goal of learning a language is to communicate with others;

	·	We assist students’ comprehension with the language in various ways through conversation coordination, for example, interactive games and activities;

	·	We encourage children to participate fully in the learning process through role-playing games;

	·	We foster our students’ abilities to learn independently; our teaching focuses on guiding and inspiring a child’s self-learning abilities;

	·	We create a relaxed, happy, and supportive learning environment so as to encourage children’s learning; and

	·	We use consistent testing and learning methods for children.

Our teaching materials and curriculum are specifically designed to suit different age-groups of children. Likewise, our teachers are specifically trained to work with children of different age groups. Listening, speaking, writing, and spelling skills form the basis of our primary curriculum.

Our Programs

Kid Castle After-School Education Program — Fostering Children’s Multiple Talents

Our After-School Education Program is becoming one of the most recognized and respected institutions of its kind in Taiwan. This program features professionally designed, in-depth research into curriculum and child development implemented by caring teachers. The guiding principle behind the program is to expose students’ minds to a more international worldview with a focus on information and technology.

The teaching materials of the After-School Education Program help our students learn basic conversational English through various themes and units. Beginning with the ABCs, by the time most students complete our program, they can speak and understand basic English. They have a foundation upon which they can build as they continue their studies. Fun activities that focus on speaking and listening are an integral part of each class.

We recognize that today’s children are the adults of tomorrow. To better prepare our students for the future, our program also includes a series of moral stories for students that teach them not only the basic English conversation skills but also how to be better members of the society.

Kid Castle Preschool — Establishing English Learning Networks

Preparing our students to be leaders has always been one of our missions. We teach our children a number of different subjects in order to expose them to the wonders of the world and to what their future holds. Established island-wide in Taiwan, the successful Kid Castle Pre-Schools are where children aged three to six years old can get their start.

We have incorporated into our preschool curriculum an interactive teaching method that helps children learn English more effectively. We believe that our interactive multi-media and computer materials, including CD ROMs, make learning more appealing and interesting to children. We recognize that going to preschool is the first step many young children will take in their education and that each student’s needs are unique. To aid our students in learning, we incorporate a number of teaching features into the preschool curriculum, such as colorful pictorial displays in our text books, posters, and educational VCD and DVD, and audio sound effects in our audio tapes and CDs.

To aid our students in socialization, we foster interaction among all of the children in the class. We help them begin to establish interpersonal relations, gain self-confidence, and learn how to express themselves through English, total physical response, arts and crafts, and other means.

Finally, we place much emphasis on the interaction and relationship between children, parents, teachers, and administrators at the preschools. Regular academic and development reports and meetings between the various parties help keep parents informed of their children’s progress and assist the parents when supervising studies of their children after school.

Kid Castle Publishing — Bringing English to Your Children

Our specially designed educational materials are an essential part of our business. We publish a wide range of successful teaching and learning materials for children, including Chinese textbooks for kindergartens, English textbooks, workbooks, English magazines, and accompanying study guides, music CDs, tapes, VCD and DVD, and other supplemental materials for kindergarten and elementary levels. Our market includes individuals, organizations, elementary schools, and third-party language schools. In addition to publications, we provide relevant complimentary resources (including provision of note books and stationery) and services (including serving after-school snacks) to our customers.

Competitive Strengths

We are one of the leading English-language tutoring centers in Taiwan. We are in the process of establishing our market position in China, with far-reaching connections across both regions. We believe that our competitive strengths distinguish us from our competitors. Those strengths include:

Marketing advantages

Kid Castle has:

430 franchises; and

over 7,430 schools using our materials.

Superior Quality

We believe that we have created a successful corporate brand name. We have over 22 years of management experience in the education industry, and we have received recognition for our teaching materials from five local school districts in the ROC. We also have engaged highly-qualified English teachers from some of the finest learning institutions in the United States and England, including the University of California Los Angeles, Brown University, Cornell University, Cambridge University, the University of London, and Warwick University.

The English-language Education Market

Analysis of Preschool and Elementary School Markets in Taiwan

Preschool Educational Market. Among the 1.2 million children in Taiwan between the ages of two to six, we estimate that 45% (approximately 540,000 children) attend preschools and that approximately 70 % (about 840,000 children) purchase English-learning materials (population data provided by the Taiwanese Ministry of the Interior - http://www.moi.gov.tw/stat/index.asp).

Elementary School English-language Materials. The Department of Education of ROC has issued a directive that, from the 2002 academic year onward, computer skills and English must be incorporated into the school curriculum for all students in third grade and above. As a result, we believe that, over the next decade, nearly 1.8 million students (the number of students in ROC public schools) will require English-language materials as study aids. Taiwanese schools have little experience in the new curriculum, proper teaching materials are inadequate, and qualified teaching personnel are in short supply.

After-School Education. We believe that children’s after-school education will move in the direction of diversification of products, increased dissemination of information, and additional education that complements the school curriculum with English and computer skills. We estimate that approximately 60% of Taiwan’s 1.8 million elementary students aged seven to twelve will participate in after-school courses over the next decade.

China Market Overview

According to the 2007 market survey by the National Bureau of Statistics of China (“NBSC”) (available at http://www.moe.edu.cn/edoas/website18/info20732.htm) the English-education market in China is comprised of 226 million children for the preschool market and 108 million elementary students for the after-school tutoring market.

Despite such a large market potential and business opportunity, it remains difficult to establish private child-education businesses in China. Foreign companies have difficulties operating in China due to differences in cultural background and teaching methods. We believe that we are an ideal candidate to operate in China because we operate successful education institutions in Taiwan, a country that shares similarities with China in terms of culture, teaching methods, and expectations for learning outcomes.

Over the past ten years, China has seen impressive economic growth. With this economic growth, consumers have greatly increased their expenditures. And with the government motto, “Children are our treasure,” parents are generously investing in their children’s education, including enrolling their children into premium kindergartens and after-school tutoring to improve English-language skills and computer literacy. Parents invest in their children’s education with the desire and expectation that their children will be qualified to enroll in prominent secondary schools and internationally recognized and renowned universities.

In 2002, China began to aggressively incorporate English into its elementary school curriculum. The teaching materials and methods of the state kindergartens are not able to satisfy the demand of parents searching for a high-quality, comprehensive learning environment. Chinese society has begun to demand that kindergarten curriculum be taught in English and Chinese. At 226 million preschoolers, we believe the current size of China’s preschool education market is still only at its nascent stages.

The belief that English language is a necessity to function in the modern world is being embedded in the minds and hearts of many household in China. That belief coincides with the following other factors that we believe will transform Chinese elementary education:

Hosting the 2008 Olympics has triggered country-wide modernization, investments in infrastructure, and policy changes that encourage economic growth in China. In particular, the service industry has enjoyed significant investment and modernization since the announcement of the 2008 Olympics. Due to industry’s demand for employees with English-language skills, we believe such modernization and growth will offer broader opportunities for private foreign business entities in general and English-language education providers in particular;

China’s preparations for the 2008 Olympics have encouraged broad scientific and cultural advancements. Such advancements further China’s emphasis on education and on its children. We believe that this will translate into an increased demand for English-language instruction;

Encouraging multi-lingual abilities and improving the quality of education are primary concerns for the PRC government. Consequently, the English-language instruction industry has seen a relaxation in government regulation that will allow us to better realize our potential in China;

As a result of joining the World Trade Organization, China is transforming its education systems to match international standards, including English-language instruction;

Many college graduates leave China to continue their academic careers in foreign countries where proficiency in the English language is a necessity;

Many foreign companies are establishing and have established operations in China. The benefits of working for a foreign international company compared to that of a domestic company motivate parents to ensure their children acquire strong English-language skills that will qualify them for such employment;

China has a long-term plan to develop a more international orientation for its economy and its government. Such plan requires a larger pool of workers with English-language skills. In 1996, the then Premier Mr. Zhu Rongi stated that education is the key to promoting the PRC’s economy. This fundamental principle evolved into specific policies implemented by the PRC in 2001 and 2003. These policies relaxed entry restrictions to foreign investment in the education industry and made it easier for foreign education providers to operate in China. Article Three to the PRC Private Education Promotion Law stated that private education organizations are a beneficial and desirable attribute to society and should be highly encouraged and supported. The Chinese government has recently encouraged development of privately operated elementary schools and has launched a cooperative program aimed at improving Chinese educational systems using foreign knowledge and resources. We believe such government policy will greatly expand the private elementary school market and create enormous market potential; and

On February 1, 2005, the PRC Government implemented the “Special Commercial Permit Management Regulation” (the “Management Rule”), which superseded the “Special Commercial Permit Management Regulation”. The Management Rule promotes predictability for private businesses in China’s mixed economy. It provides clear guidelines as to market entry requirements, disclosure mechanisms, and regulations that affect and regulate private businesses. The adoption of the Management Rule exemplifies the PRC Government’s determination to support foreign investment in private business; it increased transparency and set out clear guidelines that allow us to better comply with regulations, which in turn led to better efficiency and operational performance. Because China needs foreign resources and know-how in the English-language education market, it has utilized its relaxed regulatory scheme to entice companies like us to enter its market.

Strategy

From 2003 to 2008, we have substantially increased our sales and marketing efforts in order to more aggressively market our franchises in China. Such expansion resulted in growth in the sales of our English-learning materials. While we expect to continue expanding our market share in China, we intend to do so by more efficiently utilizing our management and capital resources to more effectively manage our cost of goods sold and other operating expenses. We will continue to devote our resources to increasing the number of our franchises and expanding our publishing operations. On the other hand, we will cut nonessential operations to reduce our operating costs and improve our profitability.

We will plan our growth cautiously by carefully considering the choice of location for each of our franchise schools. We first consider whether a particular location is saturated with our franchise schools or other schools and potential development. In the process, we conduct market research, analysis, and surveys. Once we have identified a region, we conduct a marketing campaign in the particular region that includes attending school fairs and expositions, schedule seminars, and employing news print, media, and other marketing methods. The increase in the number of franchises may require us to hire more personnel, including managers and personnel who provide staff and teacher training, in order to ensure that each franchise has the proper oversight and that the quality of our franchised operations is maintained.

Operations

Our operations are divided between (1) delivery of classroom-based tutoring services through our own franchises and cooperating schools, (2) distribution and sale of our published materials, and (3) delivery of education services through the Internet.

We have marketing advantages over our franchises and various schools as we actively control the distribution channels of our franchises and various schools’ teaching and learning curriculum.

We provide our franchises the following services:

Management guidelines specifically designed for individual regional districts to ensure that franchises are fully realizing their students’ potentials;

Teaching materials that can be applied in complete units and are not dependant on supplementary texts;

Support during the establishment of the franchise;

Regularly scheduled conferences and seminars for head teachers and supervisors of franchise schools that provide updated educational and promotional strategies aimed at improving student enrollment and management of the franchises;

Uniform promotional campaigns whereby the Company is responsible for planning and designing various print and broadcast advertisements for all Kid Castle schools; and

Regularly scheduled education training, administration and management seminars for the franchise.

The following table sets forth, as at December 31, for the period indicated, the principal categories of our consolidated operating revenue:

	2005 ($)		2006 ($)		2007 ($)
Sales of goods		7,020,532		6,774,260		7,671,392
Franchise income		2,289,655		2,080,551		2,205,668
Other operating revenue		922,147		856,772		1,359,552
Total operating revenue		10,232,334		9,711,583		11,236,612

Franchises and Cooperating Schools

Our classroom-based courses and tutoring services are provided through company-operated locations, cooperating schools, and our independent franchises. We believe there is significant potential for additional franchised schools to be established both in Taiwan and China, and we are actively seeking to expand franchises in these territories. Our franchisees provide Kid Castle courses and tutoring services under the “Kid Castle” brand name within a specified territory in accordance with a franchise agreement signed with us. The revenues from our franchises are comprised of annual licensing fees for using the “Kid Castle” brand name, consulting service fees, and purchase fees for purchase of Kid Castle teaching and learning materials. Our franchisees typically enter into exclusive agreements to purchase our course and marketing materials, which they use in conducting and promoting their classes.

Franchisees must obtain our approval for the location and design of a Kid Castle school and must operate the franchised school in accordance with certain methods, standards, and specifications developed by us. The franchisee is usually required to purchase from us all of its teaching materials, as well as student explanatory and promotional brochures. We also require our franchisees to purchase from us, or through a channel that we provide, other items necessary for the operation of a franchise school, such as computers, instructional materials, and furniture.

We actively manage our franchise system. We require franchisees and their employees to attend initial training seminars in franchise-school operations and Kid Castle educational programs. We also offer our franchisees and their employees training seminars each year. Franchise training seminars are designed for each type of school and may include:

Preschool English Teaching Seminar;

Children’s English Teaching Seminar;

Caretaking English Teaching Seminar; and

English Kindergarten Teaching Seminar.

The initial training seminar is designed to familiarize teachers with the three Kid Castle teaching methods (Audio-Lingual, Total Physical Response, and Communicative Language Teaching); to introduce our materials; and to help teachers incorporate our three teaching methods into the daily teaching plan. We employ division directors who act as consultants to assist franchises in technology implementation, business development, marketing, education, and operations. These employees also facilitate regular communications between franchisees and Kid Castle.

Unlike franchise schools, our cooperating schools are not affiliated with our company, but have entered into contracts with us to use our teaching and learning materials. Unlike the franchises, the cooperating schools are not required to exclusively use our materials or participate in our training seminars.

Cooperating caretaking schools are our third type of school. These schools serve preschool and elementary school children in both caretaker and educator roles. These schools are not affiliated with our company, but enter into contracts with us to use our teaching and learning materials.

Currently, there are approximately 260 and 140 Kid Castle franchises in Taiwan and in China, respectively, and approximately 6,500 cooperating schools in the two countries. The cooperating schools include Kid Castle Kindergarten, Kid Castle Computer School, and Kid Castle Remedial School. The following table shows the number of our franchises and cooperating schools, and cooperating caretaking schools included as of the dates indicated:

	December 31, 2006		December 31, 2007
Franchises		350		430
Cooperating schools*		5,000		7,000

* includes caretaking schools

Publishing

Our extensive experience in the education industry has enabled us to carefully develop what we believe to be superior teaching products that incorporate diverse and innovative content. Our educational products feature a wide range of technology, including multimedia and audio publications and the Internet. In addition, we are developing interactive educational programs that utilize a child’s senses of hearing, sight, and touch.

Published materials make up approximately 70% of our revenue. The three main channels that purchase our published teaching materials are franchise schools, kindergartens, and elementary schools. Our franchise schools are obligated to exclusively use Kid Castle teaching and learning materials. Based on data from the NBSC, as of December 31, 2007 there were approximately 130,500 kindergartens and 341,600 public and private elementary schools in China, all of which are potential customers for us.

Teaching Features and Curriculum

Our children’s English curriculum is summarized as follows:

Category	Class	Student	Levels in Total	Period
Preschool Learning	Preschool children	Ages 3-6	Six levels	Six months
Language Learning	Young children	Ages 7-9	Fourteen levels	Six months
Language Learning	Older children	Ages 10-12	Fourteen levels	Three months

Kid Castle’s Young Children Teaching Materials incorporate the following features:

full conformity with natural language-development patterns for listening, speaking, reading, and writing;

design and development based on the unique factors of individual students, such as age, learning habits, and cognitive ability;

contemporary topics that capture and reflect students’ interests and needs;

practical scenarios purposely designed to cater to daily life so as to increase the relevance of language usage and application;

emphasis on oral communication;

games and activities that give students an opportunity to practice language skills and increase interest in learning English;

categorization of curriculum from easy to difficult with subjects that correspond to the subsequent levels; and

diverse subjects and content.

Sales and Marketing

The majority of our students’ parents choose our education programs and materials based on the recommendations of other parents and teachers. We also build awareness of our brand and promote our products through our franchises and relationships with the cooperating schools. We also maintain an internal sales force and engage in national and local advertising through print and broadcast media and through direct sales to targeted demographics. Advertising is centrally monitored and is directed primarily at local markets in which a kindergarten is located. All marketing activity is tracked to measure effectiveness and to provide reference information for future activities. All responses to advertising are analyzed to provide data and references for future marketing efforts.

Individual franchises have their own marketing methodologies for students. However, we monitor and provide general marketing strategies to facilitate the franchises’ promotional campaigns. Policies, standards, and procedures for new franchises and cooperating schools are established centrally, but are implemented at the local level through an employee in the marketing department. Cooperating schools also increase our company exposure. As these schools use our teaching and learning materials, we believe parents and children will grow more familiar with the “Kid Castle” brand name and the after-school education we provide through our caretaking schools.

Competition

The English-language teaching and educational services industry in Asia is highly fragmented, varying significantly among different geographic locations and demographical composition of consumers. Our ability to compete depends on our ability to improve existing or create new English-language learning materials and courses to distinguish our company from our competitors. Other providers of English-language instruction include individual tutors, small language schools operated by individuals, public institutions, and franchises or branches of larger language teaching companies, some of which operate internationally. The smaller operations typically offer large-group teaching and self-teaching materials for home study, while larger competitors concentrate on the higher-priced, business-oriented segment by offering intensive, individualized programs.

We do not intend to hire U.S.-based employees in the foreseeable future. None of our employees are represented by a labor union, and we consider our relationships with our employees to be good.

Regulatory Environment

Taiwan

The Ministry of Education of Taiwan (“MOE”) requires that teaching and learning materials that are to be used by elementary schools and junior high schools for compulsory education first be reviewed and approved by the MOE. The material submission process for such purpose is as follows:

Following the submission of materials, the MOE will review the materials and submit a decision within 90 days, subject to an extension of 30 days;

If the MOE approves the materials, the applicant must send three copies of the final version to the MOE. The MOE performs a final review and makes a final decision within 60 days;

If the MOE does not approve the initial submission, the applicant has 45 days to resubmit the materials with any corrections that the MOE deems necessary;

The MOE reviews the resubmitted materials and makes its decision within 45 days;

If the materials are not approved, or the corrections are not satisfactory to the MOE, the applicant has 30 days to make additional corrections and submit the corrected materials to the MOE. The MOE will then return its decision within 30 days;

If the MOE does not approve the corrections on the third resubmission, the applicant may appeal within 30 days and the MOE will review the appeal and make a decision within 30 days after its receipt of the appeal; and

If the appeal is rejected by the MOE, the applicant must start the approval process over.

The Employment Service Act of Taiwan and relevant regulations require all foreign supplementary education instructor applicants to be 20 years of age or older. In addition, it is our company policy to hire teachers with university bachelor degrees and to have each foreign employee teach the national language of the country issuing his or her passport.

China

According to the China-Foreign School Cooperation Regulation (“CFSCR”) effective September 2003, foreign companies cannot operate educational franchises through wholly-owned entities, but must do so in cooperation with local Chinese investors. These cooperative arrangements must be approved by the Chinese government. The CFSCR limits the number of seats on the board of directors (or any controlling board or committee) that may be offered to foreign investors or their nominees to no more than half of the total number of seats. The director of the school, as well as the chairman of the board, can be foreign individuals; however, the qualification of the principal or the person responsible for administration must be reviewed by the government.

The China Ministry of Education (“CMOE”) has general guidelines for every province and major city. In addition, each province and some major cities, such as Beijing and Shanghai, have their own administrative body for education and their own regulations and requirements. All of our educational materials must comply with the national curriculum guideline as set out by the central government as well as principal and regional administrative board requirements.

The CMOE, under the Kindergarten Operation and Management Regulation, requires the following:

the location of the kindergarten must be in accordance with the safety standards set by the CMOE;

schoolmasters, principals, and teachers must have a diploma from a teachers’ college or higher and a background in children’s education;

school staff must have the equivalent of a junior high education or diploma; and

The following violations will result in penalties, including reorganization or correction to be completed by a certain deadline, suspension of student enrollment, and suspension of operation:

unlicensed operation, where the location and environment are unsatisfactory to government standards; and

distributing materials that are inappropriate for children or materials that violate the Educational Standards set by the CMOE.

Other violations, such as prohibited or illicit substance usage, possession of dangerous instruments, corporal punishment, or embezzlement of school funds or property will result in punishment and sanctions in accordance with the degree of violation.

Intellectual Property and Property Rights

The name “Kid Castle” and various drawings used in our materials are trademarked and registered to us in Taiwan and PRC. Our copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade secrets, proprietary technology, and other intellectual property rights distinguish our products and services from those of our competitors and contribute to our competitive advantage in our target markets. To protect our brand, products, and services and the systems that deliver those products and services to our customers, we rely on a combination of copyright, trademark, and trade secret laws as well as confidentiality agreements and licensing arrangements with our employees, customers, independent contractors, sponsors, and other third parties.

Corporate History

We are the result of a share exchange transaction, commonly referred to as a reverse merger, pursuant to which shareholders of an offshore operating company take control of a U.S. company that has no operations (commonly referred to as a shell company), and the offshore operating company becomes a subsidiary of the U.S. company. In our case, the offshore company was Higoal Developments Ltd., which was the parent company of Kid Castle Internet Technologies Limited and Kid Castle Education Software Development Co. Limited, our operating companies that run our English language instruction business. The U.S. or shell company, at the time of the share exchange, was King Ball International Technology Corporation.

The details of our corporate history are as follows. We were incorporated in Florida on July 19, 1985 as Omni Doors, Inc. From inception through June 30, 1998, our primary business was the assembly and distribution of industrial doors for sale to building contractors in the South Florida market. Until April 6, 1998, we were a wholly-owned subsidiary of Millennia, Inc., a publicly-owned Delaware corporation. On April 6, 1998, the Board of Directors of Millennia declared the payment of a stock dividend to Millennia’s stockholders. Millennia stockholders received one share of our common stock for each four shares of Millennia common stock. This distribution of approximately 570,000 shares of our company represented approximately 5% of the total issued and outstanding shares of our common stock.

Pursuant to a contract dated July 14, 1998, Millennia sold 10,260,000 shares (representing 90% of the total outstanding shares) of our common stock to an unrelated firm, China Economic Growth Investment Corp., LLC, which then distributed the shares to its three members, Yong Chen, Zuxiang Huang, and Zheng Yao.

On April 6, 2001, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement dated April 2, 2001, Halter Capital Corporation, a privately-owned Texas corporation, purchased 6,822,900 shares of our common stock from Zheng Yao, representing approximately 60% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Simultaneously with this change - in - control transaction, Sophia Yao, our then sole officer and director, resigned. Kevin B. Halter, Sr., as President and director, and Kevin B. Halter, Jr., as Secretary-Treasurer and director, were elected to replace her.

On June 19, 2002, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement dated June 6, 2002, Powerlink International Finance, Inc., a British Virgin Islands corporation, purchased 2,830,926 shares of our common stock from Halter Capital Corporation, representing approximately 57% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Simultaneously with the purchase, the officers and directors of the Company resigned. Chin-Chung Hsu, President, Treasurer, and Director; Wen-Hao Hsu, Secretary and Director; and Chien-Hwa Liu, Director, were elected to replace them.

On June 25, 2002, we changed our name to King Ball International Technology Corporation and, on August 22, 2002, we changed our name again to Kid Castle Educational Corporation. On October 1, 2002, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of Higoal, a Cayman Islands company, pursuant to an Exchange Agreement dated as of October 1, 2002 (the “Exchange Agreement”). The Exchange Agreement was among Higoal, the shareholders of Higoal, Kuo-An Wang, and Kid Castle. Higoal, which is based in Taipei, Taiwan, is the parent company of KCIT and KCES. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, Higoal became our wholly-owned subsidiary. In exchange for 100% of the issued and fully paid-up capital of Higoal, we issued 11,880,000 shares of our common stock to the shareholders of Higoal. As a result of the share exchange, the former shareholders of Higoal hold a majority of our outstanding capital stock.

On September 26, 2005, our Chairman, Suang-Yi Pai, and his wife, Su-Mei Pai, purchased 806,960 and 693,040 shares of the common stock of the Company, respectively. On December 28, 2006, Mr. Pai was issued an additional 2,000,297 shares of the common stock in exchange for extinguishment of debt. As of December 31, 2007, Mr. and Mrs. Pai and their family members controlled 4,841,377 shares or 19.36% of the total outstanding common stock of the Company. Also on September 26, 2005, our Chief Executive Officer, Min-Tan Yan, and his wife Yu-Pin Shen purchased 1,641,538 and 500,000 shares of the common stock of the Company, respectively. On September 26, 2006, Mr. Yang purchased 3,024,000 shares of our common stock for cash and on December 28, 2006, Mr. Yang was issued 4,000,000 shares of the common stock in exchange for extinguishment of debt As of December 31, 2007, Mr. Yang and his wife together controlled 9,165,538 shares or 36.66% of the total outstanding common stock of the Company.

On December 27, 2006 we established a wholly-owned subsidiary, KCEI with registered total capital of Renmibi ("RMB") $1.2million. As of December 31, 2007, KCEI has a total registered capital of RMB2,000,000.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

Risks Relating to Our Business

We have a history of operating losses and may have difficulty maintaining profitability.

Our ability to maintain a positive cash flow and maintain profitability depends on our ability to generate and maintain revenue while incurring reasonable expenses. This, in turn, depends, among other things, on the development of our business in Taiwan and the PRC. We may be unable to maintain profitability if we fail to do any of the following:

	·	maintain and improve our current products and services and develop or license new products on a timely basis;

	·	compete effectively with existing and potential competitors;

	·	further develop our business activities;

	·	manage expanding operations; or

	·	attract and retain qualified personnel.

Although the trend has reversed the last two years, we have incurred operating losses during most reporting periods since our inception. As a result, as of December 31, 2007, we had an accumulated deficit of $7,179,418. We incurred net losses of $1,698,282 and $46,211 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2006, respectively. We incurred net income of $1,877,149 for the years ended December 31, 2007. The net cash used in operation activities was $1,295,250 for years ended December 31, 2005. The net cash provided by operation activities were $1,773,267 and $1,507,860 for the year ended December 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively. The accumulated deficit has improved since Messrs. Pai and Yang have assumed their respective management roles, and we are optimistic that the trend will continue for the foreseeable future.

If we are unable to maintain profitability, it could impede implementation of our growth strategy, or cause the market price of our common stock to decrease.

We cannot predict whether demand for our products and services will continue to develop, particularly at the volume or prices that we need to maintain profitability in a competitive environment..

The market for English-language instruction and education is growing rapidly. We believe our success ultimately will depend upon, among other things, our ability to:

	·	increase awareness of our brand and the availability of our products and services;

	·	continue to attract and develop relationships with educational institutions and regulatory authorities in our targeted geographic markets; and

	·	continue to attract and retain customers.

Because our operating results are tied, in part, to the success of our franchises, the failure of our franchises could adversely affect our operating results.

Our revenues include licensing fees received from franchises of Kid Castle. Accordingly, our future revenues will be impacted by the gross revenues of Kid Castle franchises and the number of schools operating by these franchises. Although our revenues from Kid Castle franchise operations will vary directly with the gross revenues of our franchises, we are not directly dependent on the franchises’ profitability. We believe, however, that the profitability of existing franchises is key to our ability to attract new franchises and open new franchised schools. Therefore, factors that adversely affect the revenues and profitability of our franchises may have an adverse effect on our operating results.

There can be no assurance that our franchises will operate schools successfully. While no individual franchise represents more than 1% of our franchise revenues, a significant failure of our franchises to operate successfully could adversely affect our operating results. The resolution of certain franchise financial difficulties may cause us to incur additional costs due to uncollectible accounts receivable related to franchise and license fees, the purchase of teaching and learning materials, and potential claims by franchises that could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

An increase in market competition could have a negative impact on our business.

Our market is new, rapidly evolving and highly competitive. We expect this competition to persist and intensify in the future. This increase in competition could impact our business as it leads to price reductions, increases in the Company’s overhead expenses, under-utilization of employees, and increases in operation costs.

Our failure to maintain and enhance our competitive position could seriously harm our business and operating results. We encounter current or potential competition from a number of sources, including:

branches and franchises of international language instruction companies;

public institutions and private schools; and

private tutors.

Because we face competition from established competitors, we cannot guarantee future profits.

Our primary competitors include Giraffe, Jordan, JEO, Gram and Hess in Taiwan; Onlyedu, DDDEO, New Oriental and English First in the PRC. Our primary competitors have significant financial, technical, and marketing resources, and established brand recognition. Some of these competitors have a longer operating history and greater overall resources than we do. These companies also have established customer support and professional services organizations. As a result, in the ROC market, we need to improve our service quality or decrease our fees to maintain our customer level. In the PRC market, we have to assertively develop the market and further enhance our reputation as well as increase our market share. In performing the aforementioned in the respective markets, we may incur increased operational cost and or reduce our profit and therefore we cannot guarantee future profits.

Because we intend to expand internationally, we will be subject to risks of conducting business in foreign countries.

As we expand our operations outside of Taiwan, we will be subject to the risks of conducting business in foreign countries, including:

	·	our inability to adapt our products and services to local cultural traits and customs;

	·	our inability to locate qualified local employees, partners, and suppliers;

	·	difficulties managing foreign operations;

	·	the potential burdens of complying with a variety of foreign laws;

	·	trade standards and regulatory requirements;

	·	geopolitical risks, such as political and economic instability and changes in diplomatic and trade relationships;

	·	legal uncertainties or unanticipated changes regarding regulatory requirements, liability, export and import restrictions, tariffs, and other trade barriers;

	·	uncertainties of laws and enforcement relating to the protection of intellectual property;

	·	political, economic, and social conditions in the foreign countries where we conduct operations;

	·	currency risks and exchange controls;

	·	potential inflation in the applicable foreign economies; and

	·	foreign taxation of earnings and payments received by us from our franchises and affiliates.

We cannot be certain that the risks associated with our anticipated foreign operations will not negatively affect our operating results or prospects, particularly as these operations expand in scope, scale, and significance.

Because we may not be able to protect our proprietary rights on a global basis, we may incur substantial costs to defend or protect our business and intellectual property.

We strategically pursue the registration of our intellectual property rights. However, effective patent, trademark, service mark, copyright, and trade secret protection may not always be guaranteed, and the steps we have taken may be inadequate to protect our intellectual property. In addition, there can be no assurance that competitors will not independently develop similar intellectual property. If others are able to copy and use our products and delivery systems, we may not be able to maintain our competitive position. If we fail to protect our intellectual property, we may be exposed to expensive litigation or risks jeopardizing our competitive position. We may have to initiate litigation in order to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets, or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. This litigation could result in substantial costs and the diversion of our management and technical resources, which could harm our business.

In addition, laws in the PRC have traditionally been less protective of intellectual property rights and enforcement of those laws has been sporadic at best. Any further reduction in the legal protections granted to intellectual property rights in the PRC could adversely affect our revenue as we continue to expand into the PRC market.

Because we may not be able to avoid claims that we infringed the proprietary rights of others, we may incur substantial costs to defend or protect our business and intellectual property.

Although we have taken steps to avoid infringement claims, these measures may not be adequate to prevent others from claiming that we violated their copyrights, trademarks, or other proprietary rights. Any claim of infringement could cause us to incur substantial costs defending against the claim, even if the claim is invalid, and could distract our management from our business. A party making a claim could secure a judgment that requires us to pay substantial damages, or we may lose the rights to use or modify our products.

We substantially rely on loans from shareholders and bank loans and our inability to obtain sufficient funding may adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition.

As of December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007, our bank loans and loans from financial institutions were $3,157, 297, $1,787,360, and $2,965,310, respectively. Although we had an accumulated deficit, as of December 31, 2007, we had a positive cash flow from operations. Barring significant, unforeseen developments in the PRC, we believe we can decrease our reliance on loans from shareholders and banks to meet our funding requirements in the future. Despite our expectation to decrease reliance on loans, we may again be required to seek loans to meet our funding requirements and no assurances can be given that bank loans or loans from shareholders will be available in the future. If we are unable to secure sufficient financing, our liquidity position would be adversely affected, and we may be required to seek more expensive sources of funding to finance our operations.

Implementing our strategies may require substantial capital expenditures. To the extent these expenditures exceed our cash resources, we will be required to seek additional debt or equity financing. Our ability to obtain sufficient financing and the cost of such financing will depend on numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control, including:

	·	our financial condition;

	·	general economic and capital market conditions;

	·	availability of credit from banks or lenders;

	·	conditions in the financial markets;

	·	investor confidence in us; and

	·	economic, political and other conditions in Taiwan and the PRC.

If we are unable to obtain sufficient funding for our operations or development plans on commercially acceptable terms, or at all, our liquidity and financial condition may be adversely affected.

Because we conduct operations in New Taiwan Dollars (“NT dollars”) and RMB, we are subject to risk from exchange rate fluctuations.

Our transactions with suppliers and customers are effected in NT dollars, the functional currency of our Taiwanese subsidiary, KCIT. As a result of our expansion in the PRC, our transactions are also effected in RMB, the functional currency of our PRC subsidiary, KCES and KCEI. Our financial statements are reported in U.S. dollars. As a result, fluctuations in the relative exchange rate among the U.S. dollar, the NT dollars, and the RMB will affect our reported shareholders’ equity from one period to the next. Such impacts could be material and are independent of the underlying performance of our business. The market price of our securities could be significantly affected by unfavorable changes in exchange rates. We do not actively manage our exposure to such unfavorable changes in exchange rates.

Because our officers and directors are not U.S. persons, and our operating subsidiaries are companies formed under the laws of Taiwan and the People’s Republic of China, you may be unable to enforce judgments under the Securities Act.

Our operating subsidiaries are a Taiwanese company and a PRC company, and our officers and directors are residents of various jurisdictions outside the United States. All or a substantial portion of the assets of both our business and our officers and directors are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to affect service of process upon such persons, or to enforce court judgments obtained against such persons in United States courts when their claims are predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the Securities Act.

Our internal controls and management systems are currently not consistent with international practices, and we are in the process of improving these controls to enable us to certify their effectiveness in accordance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Our failure to timely and successfully upgrade these controls and systems could subject us to regulatory actions and harm the price of our stock.

Our internal control and management systems were designed to meet the standards generally adopted by private Taiwan companies, and the internal control and management systems of our PRC subsidiaries were designed to meet the standards generally adopted by companies in China. These standards are different from the standards and best practices adopted by companies in the United States. We have identified areas in which our current control and management systems do not meet international standards and practices. In addition, during their audit in 2005, our external auditors at the time brought to our attention a number of areas in which our current internal controls and management systems do not reduce undetected material errors or fraud to a relatively low level of risk, which could adversely affect our ability to accurately and timely record, process, summarize, and report financial data. Pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related rules and regulations, we are required to evaluate our internal controls over financial reporting and to file an assessment of their effectiveness with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Our external auditors, within certain deadlines established by the SEC, are required to attest to such evaluation. Unless we successfully upgrade our controls and systems, we will not be able to satisfactorily comply with our obligation under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and our external auditors will be unable to provide a satisfactory certification. We have prepared an internal plan of action for compliance, which includes a schedule of activities to address our need to meet these standards and best practices. If we fail to successfully complete the improvements we have scheduled on a timely basis, or if the activities fail to raise our internal controls and management systems to the levels required by international standards or legal requirements, or if we fail to implement new or improved controls, then we may fail to meet our reporting obligations and our auditors may be unable to certify the management’s assertion of the effectiveness of our internal controls as required under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. This could subject us to regulatory scrutiny and result in a loss of public confidence in our management, which could, among other things, adversely affect our stock price.

If we lose key management or other personnel, we may experience delays in our product development and other negative effects on our business.

Our success is dependent upon the personal efforts and abilities of our executive officers, Mr. Min-Tan Yang, our Chief Executive Officer, and Mr. Suang-Yi Pai, our Chief Financial Officer. If these key officers cease employment with us before we find qualified replacements, it would have a significant negative impact on our operations. We do not have employment agreements with any of our executive officers.

Moreover, our growth and success depend on our ability to attract, hire, and retain additional highly-qualified instructors and management, and technical, marketing, and sales personnel. These individuals are in high demand, and we may not be able to attract the staff we need. The hiring process is intensely competitive, time consuming, and may divert the attention of our management from our operations. Competitors and others have in the past, and may in the future, attempt to recruit our employees. If we lose the services of any of our senior management or key instructing personnel, or if we fail to continue to attract qualified personnel, our business could suffer considerable loss of profit.

“Penny Stock” regulations may impose certain restrictions on marketability of our common 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. Our common stock currently falls within the definition of penny stock and may be subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000, or annual incomes exceeding $200,000 or $300,000, together with their spouses).

For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser’s prior written consent to the transaction. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, other than exempt transactions, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a risk-disclosure document mandated by the SEC relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable and current quotations for the securities to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative. If the broker-dealer is the sole market-maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, the “penny stock” rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and may affect the ability of investors to sell our common stock in the secondary market.

Risks Relating to The People’s Republic of China

Our operations in the PRC are subject to political, regulatory, and economic uncertainties.

Our operations and assets in the PRC are subject to significant political, regulatory, and economic uncertainties. Changes in laws and regulations, or their interpretation, the imposition of confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, imports and sources of supply, restrictions on the manner of operating educational institutions or disseminating educational materials, 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. Under its current leadership, the PRC government has been pursuing economic reform policies that encourage private economic activity and greater economic decentralization. Despite the fact that the exposure to this risk may decrease in the future as the Chinese economy globalizes and regulation relaxes, there is no assurance that the PRC government will continue to pursue these policies or that it will not significantly alter these policies from time to time without notice.

In addition, in July 2003, our subsidiary, KCES, entered into agreements with a local Chinese party, 21^st Century Publishing House, in Jiangxi Province, to establish two joint ventures, Jiangxi 21^st Century Kid Castle Culture Media Co., Ltd. (“KC Culture Media”) and 21^st Century Kid Castle Language and Education Center (“KC Education Center”), and to establish a wholly-owned subsidiary, KCEI. KC Culture Media and KC Education Center primarily publish and distribute English-language education materials, enter into franchise and consulting relationships with kindergarten and language schools, and provide services to cooperative schools in China. KCEI has now commenced operation of directly managed schools in the PRC. We intend to use the direct management approach as one of our primary vehicles for our expansion into the PRC market. Although we received, on January 19, 2004, and October 31, 2003, respectively, licenses from the applicable government authorities to conduct the business of KC Culture Media and KC Education Center in the PRC, there exist various factors that render the regulatory environment volatile and uncertain.

The lack of remedies and impartiality under the PRC’s legal system could negatively impact us.

Unlike the United States, the PRC has a civil law system based on written statutes in which judicial decisions have little precedential value. The PRC government has enacted certain laws and regulations dealing with matters such as corporate organization and governance, foreign investment, commerce, taxation, and trade. However, PRC courts’ experience in implementing, interpreting, and enforcing these laws and regulations remain limited, and thus rendering any efforts that may be devoted to enforce commercial claims or to resolve commercial disputes being unpredictable. These matters may be subject to the exercise of considerable discretion by agencies of the PRC government, and forces unrelated to the legal merits of a particular matter or dispute may influence their determination.

General

We are engaged in the business of child education, focusing on the publication and sale of kindergarten language school and primary school teaching materials and magazines. We also provide management and consulting services to our franchised kindergarten and language schools. Our teaching materials include books, audio tapes, video tapes, and compact discs. A major portion of our educational materials focuses on English-language education. We also sell educational tools and equipment that are complementary to our business. Our business originally started in Taiwan, and, in 2001, we began expanding our business into the PRC. We officially launched our operations in Shanghai in April 2002. As in Taiwan, we offer advanced teaching materials and tools and monthly magazines to provide children ranging from two to twelve years of age a chance to learn exceptional English-language and computer skills.

Critical Accounting Policies, Judgment, and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to product returns, bad debts, inventories, equity investments, income taxes, financing operations, pensions, commitments, and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.

Revenue Recognition.

We recognize sales of teaching materials, educational tools, and equipment as revenue when title of the product and risk of ownership are transferred to the customer. Title of the product and risk of ownership are transferred to the customer at the time of delivery or when the goods arrive at the customer’s designated location, and they may vary depending on the associated shipping terms. Additionally, we deliver products sold by our distributors directly to the distributors’ customers. We recognize the delivered goods as revenue in a similar way as sales to our direct customers. We estimate sales returns and discounts based on historical experience and record them as reductions in revenues.

If market conditions were to decline, we may take actions to increase sales discounts, possibly resulting in an incremental reduction in revenue at the time when revenues are recognized.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.

We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

Allowance for Obsolete Inventories and Lower of Cost or Market.

We write down our inventory for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about inventory aging, future demand, and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required.

Investment Impairments.

We hold equity interests in companies having operations in areas within our strategic focus. We record an investment impairment charge when we believe an investment has experienced a decline in value that is not temporary. Future adverse changes in market conditions or poor operating results of underlying investments could result in losses. They could also result in an inability to recover the carrying value of the investments, an inability that may not be reflected in an investment’s current carrying value, thereby possibly requiring an impairment charge in the future.

Fixed Assets and Depreciation.

Our fixed assets are stated at cost. Major improvements to existing facilities and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs that do not extend the life of the applicable asset are charged to expense as incurred. Buildings are depreciated over a 50-year term. Fixtures and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which range from two-and-a-half to ten years.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.

We review our fixed assets and other long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. We measure recoverability of assets to be held and used by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset over its remaining useful life. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The estimate of fair value is generally based on quoted market prices or on the best available information, including prices for similar assets and the results of using other valuation techniques.

As of December 31, 2007, the balance of our amortizable intangible assets was $538,638, including franchise-related intangible assets of $339,227 and copyrights of $199,411. The amortizable intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of 10 years. As of December 31, 2007, the balance of goodwill was $197,043, which is amortized on a straight-line basis over estimated the useful lives of five years. In determining the useful lives and recoverability of the intangibles, assumptions must be made regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the assets, which may not represent the true fair value. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, there may be significant impact on our results of operations in the period that the change incurred.

Income Taxes.

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax loss carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are subject to valuation allowances based upon management’s estimates of reliability. Actual results may differ significantly from management’s estimate.

Currency Exchange Risk.

Our transactions with suppliers and customers are primarily effected in NT dollars, which is the functional currency of our Taiwanese subsidiary, KCIT. As a result of our expansion in the PRC, we have increased transactions denominated in RMB, which is the functional currency of our PRC subsidiaries, KCES, KC Culture Media and Shanghai Kid Castle Educational Info Constitution Company Limited. Our financial statements are reported in U.S. dollars. As a result, fluctuations in the relative exchange rate among the U.S. dollar, the NT dollars, and the RMB will affect our reported financial results. Such impacts could be material and are independent of the underlying performance of the business. The market price of our securities could be significantly harmed based on unfavorable changes in exchange rates. We do not actively manage our exposure to the effects of such unfavorable changes in exchange rates.

Results of Operations

Comparison of Fiscal Years 2007 and 2006

Total Net Operating Revenue. Total net operating revenue consists of sales of goods, franchise income and other operating revenue. Total net operating revenues increased by $1,525,029, or 16%, to $11,236,612 for the year ended December 31, 2007 from $9,711,583 for the year ended December 31, 2006. The increase in revenue between the two years consisted of the increase in sales of goods of $897,132, franchise income of $125,117 and other operating revenues of $502,780.

Sales of goods. The increase in sales of goods, from $6,774,260 for fiscal year 2006 to $7,671,392 for fiscal year 2007, or 13%, was mainly due to the increase in net sales of goods generated from our PRC operations of $1,057,846, or 51%, to $3,136,881 for fiscal year 2007 from $2,079,035 for fiscal year 2006.

Franchise income. The increase in franchise income, from $2,080,551 for fiscal year 2006 to $2,205,668 for fiscal year 2007, or 6%, was mainly due to the increase in the number of our franchised schools established in the PRC. Franchise income for PRC increased by 219,121, or 31%, to $927,241 for fiscal year 2007 from $708,120 for fiscal year 2006.

Other operating revenue. Our other operating revenues represents revenue from other activities and services such as training of teachers, arranging for personal English-language tutors, organizing field trips and educational fairs, and collecting fees for designing the school layout of our franchised schools. Other operating revenue increased by $502,780, or 59%, to $1,359,552 for fiscal year 2007 from $856,772 for fiscal year 2006. The increase was mainly due to an increase in revenue generated from services rendered in connection with the construction and design layout of our franchised schools and sales of education-related equipment to our franchised schools in our Taiwan operations.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased by $1,065,920, or 18%, to $7,138,765 for fiscal year 2007 from $6,072,845 for fiscal year 2006. The increase in gross profit was attributable to increase in operating revenue.

Total Operating Costs. Total operating costs increased by $459,109, or 13%, to $4,097,847 for fiscal year 2007 from $3,638,738 for fiscal year 2006. This increase was mainly due to costs associated with increased sales.

Other Operating Expenses. Other operating expenses decreased by $184,102, or 3%, to $5,342,216 for fiscal year 2007 from $5,526,318 for fiscal year 2006, principally due to decreases in expenditures to fund daily operations in our Taiwan operations.

Interest Expenses, Net. Net interest expenses decreased by $89,526, or 50%, to $90,299 for fiscal year 2007 from $179,825 for fiscal year 2006, primarily due to the reduction of loans due to officers and decreases in bank loans in 2007. Please refer to Note 13 in our Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Provision for Taxes. Provision for taxes for fiscal years 2007 and 2006 were $278,191 and $173,325, respectively. These provisions for income taxes mainly represent the use of net operating loss carry-forwards to offset the income generated for our operations in Taiwan and an increase in the valuation allowance charged against deferred tax assets generated from our PRC operations in order to reduce the deferred tax assets to the extent that the tax benefit is more likely than not to be realized.

Comparison of Fiscal Years 2006 and 2005

Total Net Operating Revenue. Total net operating revenue consists of sales of goods, franchise income and other operating revenue. Total net operating revenues decreased by $520,751, or 5%, to $9,711,583 for the year ended December 31, 2006 from $10,232,334 for the year ended December 31, 2005, including the decrease in sales of goods of $246,272 and franchise income of $209,104 and other operating revenues of $65,375.

Sales of goods. The decrease in sales of goods, from $7,020,532 for fiscal year 2005 to $6,774,260 for fiscal year 2006, or 4%, was mainly due to the decrease in net sales of goods generated from our Taiwan operations of $398,278, or 8% , to $4,695,786 for fiscal year 2006 from $5,094,064 for fiscal year 2005.

Franchise income. The decrease in franchise income, from $2,289,655 for fiscal year 2005 to $2,080,551 for fiscal year 2006, or 9%, was mainly due to the decrease in the number of our franchised schools in Taiwan and the decrease in franchise income in Shanghai operations despite an increase in the number of franchised schools. Franchise income for Taiwan decreased by $93,290 from $1,465,721 for fiscal year 2005 to $1,372,431 for fiscal year 2006 and for Shanghai decreased by $115,814 from $823,934 for fiscal year 2005 to $708,120 for fiscal year 2006.

Other operating revenue. Our other operating revenues represents revenue from other activities and services such as training of teachers, arranging for personal English-language tutors, organizing field trips and educational fairs, and collecting fees for designing the school layout of our franchised schools. Other operating revenue decreased by $65,375, or 7%, to $856,772 for fiscal year 2006 from $922,147 for fiscal year 2005. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease in revenue generated from services rendered in connection with the construction and design layout of our franchised schools and sales of education-related equipment to our franchised schools in our Taiwan operations.

Gross Profit. Gross profit decreased by $348,445, or 5%, to $6,072,845 for fiscal year 2006 from $6,421,290 for fiscal year 2005. The decrease in gross profit was attributable to decrease in operating revenue.

Total Operating Costs. Total operating costs decreased by $172,306, or 5%, to $3,638,738 for fiscal year 2006 from $3,811,044 for fiscal year 2005. This decrease was mainly due to decreases in operating revenue.

Other Operating Expenses. Other operating expenses decreased by $1,062,605, or 16%, to $5,526,318 for fiscal year 2006 from $6,588,923 for fiscal year 2005, principally due to decreases in salary expenditures resulting from a reduction in employee headcount in our Shanghai operations.

Interest Expenses, Net. Net interest expenses decreased by $57,063, or 24%, to $179,825 for fiscal year 2006 from $236,888 for fiscal year 2005, primarily due to the reduction of loans due to officers and decreases in bank loans in 2006. Please refer to Note 13 in our Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Provision for Taxes. Provision for taxes for fiscal years 2006 and 2005 were $173,325 and $477,297, respectively. These provisions for income taxes mainly represent the use of net operating loss carry-forwards to offset the income generated for our operations in Taiwan and an increase in the valuation allowance charged against deferred tax assets generated from our PRC operations in order to reduce the deferred tax assets to the extent that the tax benefit is more likely than not to be realized.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Comparison of Fiscal Years 2007 and 2006

As of December 31, 2007, our principal sources of liquidity included cash and bank balances of $1,238,212, which decreased from $181,661 at December 31, 2006. The decrease in cash was mainly due to increase in new investment in our Shanghai operations.

Net cash provided by operating activities were $1,507,860 and $1,773,267 during fiscal year 2007 and 2006, respectively. Net cash provided by operating activities during fiscal year 2007 was primarily attributed to the increase in net income.

Net cash used in investing activities was $2,060,858 during fiscal years 2007 as compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $671,018 during fiscal years 2006. The $2,731,876 decrease is due to the acquisition of 100% interest in Jilin and Green Field, and a 55% interest in Lanbeisi in 2007.

Net cash provided by financing activities during fiscal year 2007 was $657,127 as compared to net cash used in financing activities of $1,583,939 during fiscal year 2006. The $2,241,066 increase was primarily attributable to proceeds from bank borrowings of $1,912,234 during fiscal year 2007, as compared to that of $213,357 during fiscal year 2006.

Comparison of Fiscal Years 2006 and 2005

As of December 31, 2006, our principal sources of liquidity included cash and bank balances of $1,419,873, which increased from $613,391 at December 31, 2005. The increase was mainly due to reductions in expenses in our Shanghai operations.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1,773,267 during fiscal year 2006 and net cash used in operating activities was $1,295,250 during fiscal year 2005. Net cash provided by operating activities during fiscal year 2006 was primarily attributed to the decrease in net loss.

Net cash provided by investing activities was $671,018 and $1,514,264 during fiscal years 2006 and 2005, respectively. The $843,246 decrease is due to the change in the amount due from a shareholder/director of $977,838 during fiscal year 2005.

Net cash used in financing activities during fiscal year 2006 was $1,583,939 as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $262,196 during fiscal year 2005. The $1,846,135 decrease was primarily attributable to proceeds from bank borrowings of $213,357 during fiscal year 2006, as compared to that of $3,067,111 during fiscal year 2005.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2007, we did not engage in any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Contractual Obligations

The Company, Higoal and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Group.” The following table represents the Group’s contractual obligations:

	Payments Due by Period
	Total		2008		2009		2010		2011		2012		Thereafter
	(Thousand dollars)
Contractual obligations
Bank borrowing		2,965		1,213		1,752		—		—		—		—
Pension benefit		109		—		—		—		20		24		65
Operating leases		1,393		348		120		74		150		165		536
Total		4,467		1,561		1,872		74		170		189		601

Bank Borrowing. One of our financing sources is from bank borrowings. As of December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, the balances of bank borrowings, including current and non-current portions, were $2,965,310 and $1,787,360, respectively.

New Subsidiary Investment. On December 27, 2006, the Group established a wholly - owned subsidiary, Shanghai Kid Castle Educational Info Constitution Company Ltd. with registered total capital of RMB 1,200,000, in order to operate schools controlled by us in the PRC. As of December 31, 2007 KCEI had total registered capital of RMB2,000,000. We hope to increase the profit margin of the Group as a result of the formation of KCEI.

Pension Benefit. In accordance with the ROC Labor Standard Law, the Group maintains two different retirement plans: a non-contributory and funded defined contribution retirement plan (the “New Plan”) covering all regular employees of KCIT, our subsidiary in Taiwan, and the benefit retirement plan (the “Old Plan”), which commenced in September 2003 and only applies to the regular employees of KCIT whom were employed prior to June 2005. For further information, please refer to Note 16 to our Consolidated Financial Statements. The benefits expected to be paid in each of the next five fiscal years and in the aggregate for the five fiscal years thereafter are $44,010 and $64,703, respectively.

We also make defined contributions to a retirement benefits plan for our employees in the PRC in accordance with local regulations. We have a non-contributory and funded defined-benefit retirement plan (the “Plan”) covering all regular employees of KCIT, our subsidiary in Taiwan, as described in Note 16 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The benefits expected to be paid in each of the next five fiscal years, and in the aggregate for the five fiscal years thereafter are $44,010 and $64,703, respectively. We also make defined contributions to a retirement benefits plan for our employees in the PRC in accordance with local regulations. The contributions made by us for fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005 amounted to $56,095, $77,750 and $51,007, respectively.

Operating Leases. We have entered into several non-cancelable lease arrangements for administrative office space, warehouse space, and sales offices for various lengths of time.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Group will continue as a going concern. The Group has been aggressively expanding its business in the PRC, and the Shanghai operations were profitable as of December 31, 2006. We anticipate continued expansion of the market for its learning materials and an increase in the number of franchise schools. Furthermore, we foresee better utilization of capital and funds as we identify and implement alternatives for restructuring and refinancing. In order to increase its profit margin, the Group has operated direct-owned schools beginning since 2007. Due to the rapid expansion in Shanghai, the Group foresees additional need for funds in the near future to facilitate its expansion plans during 2008. As discussed in Note 13 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, the majority of the Group’s existing loans were guaranteed by two directors of the Group who have expressed their willingness to continue to support the Group until other sources of funds have been obtained. Moreover, management believes that, with continuous growth in the sales in the PRC, the existing directors’ support, and the new bank facilities, the Group will have sufficient funds for operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) released Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an Interpretation of FASB Statement 109.” Effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2007, this interpretation provides guidance on the financial statement recognition and measurement for income tax positions that we have taken or expect to take in our income tax returns. It also provides related guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. We have adopted this standard as of January 1, 2007. The adoption did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.

In September 2007, the FASB released SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. This standard is applied when other accounting pronouncements require fair value measurements; it does not require new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those years. We are currently evaluating the effect of the guidance contained in this standard and do not expect the implementation to have a material impact on our financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB released SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The standard provides entities the ability, on an elective basis, to report most financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value, with corresponding gains and losses recognized in current earnings. We did not elect the fair value option under SFAS No. 159 as of January 1, 2008 for any of our financial assets and liabilities that were not already fair valued. We will consider applying the fair value option to future transactions as provided by the standard. We do not expect SFAS No. 159 to have a material impact on our financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB released SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations.” This standard revises and enhances the guidance set forth in SFAS No. 141 by establishing a definition for the “acquirer,” providing additional guidance on the recognition of acquired contingencies and non-controlling interests, and broadening the scope of the standard to include all transactions involving a transfer in control, irrespective of the consideration involved in the transfer. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date occurs in a fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Although the standard will not have any impact on our current Consolidated Financial Statements, application of the new guidance could be significant to the Company in the context of future merger and acquisition activity.

In December 2007, the FASB released SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements-an amendment of ARB No. 51.” This statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. We do not expect the standard to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

None.

ITEM 7A.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk, including changes in certain foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. All of these market risks arise in the normal course of business, as we do not engage in speculative trading activities. We have not entered into derivative or hedging transactions to manage risk in connection with such fluctuations.

The following analysis provides quantitative information regarding our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk and interest rate risk.

Foreign currency exposure

We have operations in both Taiwan and the PRC. The functional currency of Higoal and its subsidiary, KCIT is NT Dollars and the financial records are maintained and the financial statements are prepared for these entities in NT Dollars. The functional currency of KCES and its consolidated investee, KC Culture Media and Shanghai Kid Castle Educational Info Constitution Company Ltd., is RMB, and the financial records are maintained and the financial statements are prepared for these entities in RMB. In the normal course of business, these operations are not exposed to fluctuations in currency values. We do not generally enter into derivative financial instruments in the normal course of business, nor do we use such instruments for speculative purposes. The translation from the applicable local currency assets and liabilities to the U.S. Dollar is performed using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date except for shareholders’ equity, which is translated at historical exchange rates. Revenue and expense accounts are translated using average exchange rates during the period. Gains and losses resulting from such translations are recorded as a cumulative translation adjustment, a separate component of shareholders’ equity.

Interest rate exposure

We are exposed to fluctuating interest rates related to variable rate bank borrowings. In analyzing the effect of interest rate fluctuations based on the average balances of our outstanding bank borrowings for fiscal year 2007, we have projected that, if interest rates were to increase by 1%, the result would be an annual increase in our interest expense of $21,438. This analysis does not take into consideration the effect of changes in the level of overall economic activity on interest rate fluctuations.

ITEM 8.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

The consolidated financial statements of Kid Castle and its subsidiaries including the notes thereto, together with the report thereon of Brock, Schechter & Polakoff, LLP, are presented beginning at page F-1 and are incorporated by reference herein.

ITEM 9.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

On July 28, 2006, we engaged Brock, Schechter & Polakoff, LLP as our principal accountant and to audit our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007.

ITEM 9A.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b) our management has performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rule Rule 13a-15(e) means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on deficiencies noted by our auditors, problems discovered relating to misuse of company funds by a company officer, and other issues noted in our management’s evaluation; we conclude that as of December 31, 2007 our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective. We are taking measures to improve our disclosure controls and procedures, including instituting a new Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) system and engaging an outside accounting firm to advise the Company with respect to setting up internal auditing and other controls and procedures. The ERP system is expected to complete its trial run period by the third fiscal quarter 2008 and become fully operational thereafter. The old system used by the Company will then be phased out. The phase-out period will involve the amalgamation of old data into the new ERP system, and training for staff on how to use the new ERP system. During the phase-out period, various functions and operations of the new ERP system will be operating in parallel with the old system.

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 the rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive and financial accounting officer, we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

We have acknowledged that in the past our internal controls and procedures previously in place by the Company were inadequate and gave rise to misappropriation of funds as disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 23, 2006. Among other improvements, we began implementing a comprehensive ERP system that will improve the Company’s internal controls. The ERP system has been fully installed and the system has been running in parallel with the old system since 2007. Since the trial-run in January 2007 to the filing date of this current report Form 10-K, we have encountered various obstacles that prevented the ERP system from independently operating on its own. The obstacles, included the proper training and familiarization of personnel with the ERP system and detecting enhancements that needed to be made in the ERP system and to resolve such enhancements and issues that are identified during the course of training and system trial-runs. As a result, Management now expects the ERP system to be fully operational in the third fiscal quarter of 2008. The operation of the old system is scheduled to be terminated by August 31, 2008. The Company believes that full implementation of its new ERP System will prevent misappropriation of funds by Company employees because the ERP system will perform the following functions:

Maintain detailed records and produce comprehensive financial statements on a periodic basis allowing management to review and detect irregular financial activities;

Place different check-points on the progression of ordinary monetary activities of the business; and

Delineate individual and/departmental responsibilities and effectively separate respective departmental transactions so as to prevent occurrence of intentional misappropriation of funds.

In addition to implementing a new ERP system, the following additional procedures have been implemented:

All departments requesting funds must obtain written approval from the Chief Executive Officer or the Chairman of the Board before the accounting department may commence processing payments;

All fund transfer applications must be approved by the applicable department supervisor before the application may be processed. No one can authorize their own application. This is applicable to all staff including staff at the managerial level;

Fund transfer applications in the PRC must additionally be approved by the headquarters in Taiwan;

ITEM 11.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

As the Board of Directors does not have a Compensation Committee, the independent directors of the Board oversee the Company’s executive compensation program. Compensation for the CEO and the CFO has been approved by the Independent Directors of the Board. Compensation for other executive officers and senior management is determined by the CEO and CFO pursuant to the Board of Directors delegating to the CEO and CFO authority to do so. None of our executive officers serve as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of our Board of Directors.

In light of the financial distress of the Company in 2005, the Company’s CEO, Mr. Yang, and CFO, Mr. Pai, volunteered to receive nominal salary from the Company. In 2006, Messrs Yang’s and Pai’s annual base salaries were $18,509 and $18,190, respectively, which were substantially lower than the compensation paid to executives in similar positions at peer companies. In 2007, Messrs Yang’s and Pai’s annual base salaries were $72,524 and $54,225, respectively.

Elements to Executive Compensation

The Company’s executive compensation program is designed to attract and retain executives responsible for the Company’s long-term success, to reward executives for achieving both financial and strategic company goals and to provide a compensation package that recognizes individual contributions as well as overall business results. The Company’s executive compensation program also takes into account the compensation practices of companies with whom Kid Castle competes for executive talent.

The two components of the Company’s executive compensation program are base salary and annual discretionary bonuses. Overall compensation is intended to be competitive for comparable positions at peer companies.

Objectives. The objectives of the Company’s executive compensation policies are to attract and retain highly qualified executives by designing the total compensation package to motivate executives to provide excellent leadership and achieve Company goals; to align the interests of executives, employees, and stockholders by establishing cohesive management, financial, operation and marketing goals that reflect the Company’s strategic growth plan; and to provide executives with reasonable security, through retirement plan and annual discretionary bonuses that motivate them to continue employment with the Company and achieve goals that will make the Company thrive and remain competitive in the long-run.

Linkage between compensation programs and Company objective and values. We link executive compensation closely with the Company objectives, which we believe are dependent on the level of employee engagement, operational excellence, cost management and profitability achieved. Currently, the primary quantifiable measurement of operational excellence for the Company is the achievement of profitability, which is directly related to increasing annual revenue. Executives’ annual performance evaluations are based in part on their achievement of the aforementioned goals and in part on revenue targets that may be established by the Board of Directors at the beginning of each fiscal year. The Board of Directors has not set a specific revenue goal for the award of bonuses for fiscal 2008. The Company currently does not have a defined non-equity incentive plan in place for its named executives. Instead, the disinterested members of the Board of Directors determine if any annual discretionary bonuses should be awarded to named executives in conjunction with the named executives’ annual performance evaluations. As indicated in the table below, during the last three fiscal years, the Board of Directors has not elected to award any annual discretionary bonuses to any named executives.

The roles of various elements of compensation. Executive compensation includes base salary, annual discretionary bonuses awarded by the Board of Directors in conjunction with named executives’ annual performance evaluations and other annual compensation granted under the noncontributory defined benefit retirement plan. Collectively, the Board’s objective is to ensure a total pay package that is appropriate given the performance of both the Company and the individual named executive.

Governance practices concerning compensation. The Board of Directors has implemented a number of procedures that the Board follows to ensure good governance concerning compensation. These include setting CEO and CFO salaries, authorizing the CEO or the CFO to determine the salaries of presidents and vice presidents, including Mrs. Huang, President of Shanghai operations, establishing annual goals for the Company, reviewing proposals for stock incentive plans, exercising fiduciary responsibilities over retirement plans, overseeing management development and succession planning, and keeping adequate records of its activities.

Base Salary

Each executive’s base salary is initially determined with reference to competitive pay practices of peer companies (where such information is publicly available) and is dependent upon the executive’s level of responsibility and experience. The Board uses its discretion, rather than a formal weighting system, to evaluate these factors and to determine individual base salary levels. Thereafter, base salaries are reviewed periodically, and increases are made based on the Board of Director’s subjective assessment of individual performance, as well as the factors discussed above. In light of the financial distress of the Company in 2005, Mr. Pai and Yang volunteered to receive no salary payments from the Company. In 2006, Messrs Yang and Pai were awarded $18,509 and $18,190 annual salary packages, respectively. Ms. Huang, President of Shanghai Operations, is subject to a conditional payment arrangement for her base salary for fiscal year 2007. Under this arrangement, 20 percent of her base salary is withheld and paid only if the Company is able to maintain or exceed its revenue at the fiscal year 2006 level. In 2007, Messrs Yang and Pai have received annual base salaries in the amounts of $72,524 and $54,225, respectively.

To ensure that its overall compensation is competitive, the Company reviews executive compensation, including both base salary and variable compensation, with a range of peer companies that offer tuition services in the children education industry and have physical presence in the PRC and ROC. The data gathered on these business entities is publicly available information from industry specific resources and the World Wide Web. Please note, however, many of the Company’s peers are not publicly-traded companies and, as a result, only limited information regarding executive compensation is available. The English-language teaching and educational services industry in Asia is highly fragmented, varying significantly among different geographic locations and types of consumers. Our main competitors in Taiwan include Giraffe Language School, Joy Enterprise Organization, Jordan’s Language School, Gram English, and Hess Educational Organization. Our main competitors in the PRC include English First, New Oriental Educational & Technology Group, DD Dragon Education Organization and Only Education Group. More information regarding our main competitors in the PRC and ROC regions can be found under the heading “Competition” in Item 1, above.

Based on review of available information, our Board of Directors estimates that the range of salaries for chief executive officers of our peer companies is $90,000 to $144,000 annually.

Annual Discretionary Bonuses

In past years we have paid variable incentive compensation to our executives, however, due to the our overall performance in 2007, our executive officers were not awarded bonuses.

Summary Compensation Table

The following table sets forth information about the compensation paid or accrued by our chief executive officer, chief financial officer, and one other most highly compensated executive officer (our “named officers”) for the last three completed fiscal years:

Stock Option Grants in the Last Fiscal Year; Exercises of Stock Options

There were no grants of stock options during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007. The Company has never granted any stock options.

Pension Plans

The Group maintains tax-qualified defined contribution and benefit retirement plan for its employees in accordance with ROC Labor Standard Law. As a result, the Group currently maintains two different retirement plans with contribution and benefit calculation formulas. On July 1, 2005, the Bureau of National Health Insurance issued New Labor Retirement pension regulations in Taiwan. The Group has defined the new contribution retirement plan (the “New Plan”) covering all regular employees in KCIT, and KCIT contributes monthly an amount equal to 6% of its employees’ basic salaries and wages to the Bureau of National Health Insurance. The Group still maintains the benefit retirement plan (the “Old Plan”), which commenced in September 2003 and only applies to the employees of KCIT who were employed prior to June 30, 2005, and KCIT contributes monthly an amount equal to 2% of its employees’ total salaries and wages to an independent retirement trust fund deposited with the Central Trust of China in accordance with the ROC Labor Standards Law in Taiwan. The retirement fund is not included in the Group’s financial statements. Net periodic pension cost is based on annual actuarial valuations which use the projected unit credit cost method of calculation and is charged to the consolidated statement of operations on a systematic basis over the average remaining service lives of current employees. Contribution amounts are determined in accordance with the advice of professionally qualified actuaries in Taiwan. Under the plan, the employees are entitled to receive retirement benefits upon retirement in the manner stipulated by the relevant labor laws in Taiwan. The benefits under the plan are based on various factors such as years of service and the final base salary preceding retirement.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

In late 2005, our company experienced financial difficulties and was incapable of generating cash flows sufficient to sustain our operations. At the time, our board of directors approached Messrs. Pai and Yang for financial aid and management support. Mr. Pai, a director of the Company, was elected Chairman on November 2, 2005 and subsequently procured short-term loans for the Company from two third parties, Olympic Well International Ltd. (“ Olympic ”) and Chen-Chen Shih ("Shih"), payable in three months in the amount of approximately U.S.$690,000 and $60,000 respectively, with a 7% annual interest rate. Mr. Yang, who was elected as a director of the Company on November 2, 2005, loaned us approximately U.S.$1.05 million with a 7% annual interest rate. As of July 31, 2006, the remaining debt owed by the Company to Olympic and Shih was assigned to Mr. Pai pursuant to an Assignment Agreement dated as of August 1, 2006. On December 28, 2006, pursuant to the loan settlement and conversion agreement, the parties agreed to convert a portion of the loans to stock at a conversion price of $0.15 per share and to issue promissory notes to the remaining amount. The promissory notes are due in one year and have an annual interest rate of 7%. These transactions are summarized in the following table:

	Outstanding Principal as of 12/28/2006 ($)		Amount of Residual Promissory Note ($)		Promissory Note Due Date		Promissory Note Interest Rate			Principal converted to Common Stock ($0.15/share)		Shares of Common Stock
Mr. Suang-Yi Pai		407,725		107,680		12/27/2007		7	%		300,045		2,000,297
Mr. Min-Tang Yang		840,789		240,789		12/27/2007		7	%		600,000		4,000,000

As of December 31, 2007, the remaining outstanding principal and accrued interest on the notes $374,715 was fully repaid in cash.

Policy and Procedures with Respect to Related Person Transactions

We recognize that Related Person Transactions (defined as transactions, arrangements or relationships in which we were, are or will be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $10,000, and in which any Related Person (defined below) had, has or will have a direct or indirect interest) may raise questions among shareholders as to whether those transactions are consistent with the best interests of the Company and its shareholders. It is our policy to enter into or ratify Related Person Transactions only when the Board of Directors determines that the Related Person Transaction in question is in, or is not inconsistent with, the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, including but not limited to situations where we may obtain products or services of a nature, quantity or quality, or on other terms, that are not readily available from alternative sources or when we provide products or services to Related Persons on an arm’s length basis on terms comparable to those provided to unrelated third parties or on terms comparable to those provided to employees generally.

“Related Person” is defined as follows:

	1.	any person who is, or at any time since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year was, a director or executive officer of the Company or a nominee to become a director of the Company;

	3.	any immediate family member of any of the foregoing persons, which means any child, stepchild, parent, stepparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law of the director, executive officer, nominee or more than 5% beneficial owner, and any person (other than a tenant or employee) sharing the household of such director, executive officer, nominee or more than 5% beneficial owner; and

	4.	any firm, corporation or other entity in which any of the foregoing persons is employed or is a general partner or principal or in a similar position or in which such person has a 5% or greater beneficial ownership interest.

Directors and executive officers are required to submit to the Board of Directors, acting in its role as audit committee, a list of immediate family members and a description of any current or proposed Related Person Transactions on an annual basis and provide updates during the year.

In our review of any Related Person Transactions, the Board of Directors must consider all of the relevant facts and circumstances available to it, including (if applicable) but not limited to: the benefits to the Company; the impact on a director’s independence in the event the Related Person is a director, an immediately family member of a director or an entity in which a director is a partner, shareholder or executive officer; the availability of other sources for comparable products or services; the terms of the transaction; and the terms available to unrelated third parties or to employees generally. No member of the Board of Directors may participate in any review, consideration or approval of any Related Person Transaction with respect to which such member or any of his or her immediate family members is the Related Person. The Board of Directors will approve or ratify only those Related Person Transactions that are in, or are not inconsistent with, the best interests of the Company and its shareholders, as the Board of Directors determines in good faith. The Board of Directors will convey the decision to the Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Financial Officer, who will convey the decision to the appropriate persons within the Company.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders

Kid Castle Educational Corporation

Taipei, Taiwan ROC

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Kid Castle Educational Corporation and its Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006 and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit 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 and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The financial statement schedule appearing under Item 15(a)(2) on page 37 is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 17 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered previous losses from operations and has a small capital equity that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 17. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Kid Castle Internet Technologies Limited (KCIT) was incorporated on December 17, 1999 under the provisions of the Company Law of the Republic of China (“ROC”) as a limited liability company. KCIT is engaged in the business of children’s education focusing on the English language. The business is comprised of publication, sales and distribution of books, magazines, audiotapes, videotapes and compact discs, and the franchising and sales of merchandises complementary to the business of teaching children the English language. KCIT commenced operations in April 2000 when it acquired the above business from a related company, Kid Castle Enterprises Limited (KCE), which was owned by two directors and shareholders of KCIT.

On March 9, 2001, KCIT formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Premier Holding Investment Property Limited incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, which held the entire common stock of Higoal Developments Ltd. (Higoal) incorporated in the Cayman Islands on March 8, 2001. On September 10, 2001, Higoal established a wholly owned subsidiary, Kid Castle Educational Software Development Company Limited (KCES) in the People’s Republic of China (the PRC). The existing operations of Higoal are principally located in Taiwan and are being expanded in the PRC. In June 2002, after KCIT undertook a series of group restructurings, KCIT became the direct owner of the outstanding shares of Higoal. Premier Holding Investment Property Limited was then liquidated in June 2003.

On September 18, 2002, Higoal issued 11,880,000 shares of common stock to the shareholders of KCIT in exchange for 100% of the outstanding common stock of KCIT. As a result of this reorganization, KCIT became a wholly owned subsidiary of Higoal. On October 1, 2002, Kid Castle Educational Corporation (the Company), formerly King Ball International Technology Limited Corporation entered into an exchange agreement with Higoal whereby the Company issued to the shareholders of Higoal 11,880,000 shares of common stock of the Company in exchange for 100%of the issued and fully paid up capital of Higoal.

As a result of the share exchange, the former shareholders of Higoal hold a majority of the Company’s outstanding capital stock. Generally accepted accounting principles require in certain circumstances that a company whose shareholders retain the majority voting interest in the combined business to be treated as the acquirer for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the acquisition has been accounted for as a “reverse acquisition” whereby Higoal is deemed to have purchased the Company. However, the Company remains the legal entity and the Registrant for Securities and Exchange Commission reporting purposes.

In July 2003, KCES entered into an agreement with 21st Century Publishing House to incorporate Jiangxi 21st Century Kid Castle Culture Media Co., Ltd (Culture Media). It was agreed that KCES and 21st Century Publishing House each would own 50% ownership and that each party would contribute RMB1 million for the incorporation. On July 2, 2004, KCES acquired an additional 40% of Culture Media’s ownership from 21st Century Publishing House. KCES now owns 90% of Culture Media.

On December 27, 2006, KCES established a wholly-owned subsidiary, Shanghai Kid Castle Educational Info Constitution Company Limited (‘KCEI”) in the People’s Republic of China (the PRC), with registered total capital of RMB1,200,000, in order to operate schools controlled by us in the PRC. As of December 31, 2007, KCEI had total registered capital of RMB2,000,000.

The Company, Higoal and its subsidiaries collectively are referred to as the “Group.” The operations of the Group are principally located in Taiwan and the PRC.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF IMPORTANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Accounting and Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions. The preparation of financial statements in accordance 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Provision is made for expected future sales returns and discounts when revenue is recognized.

Franchise income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the relevant franchise agreements.

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided based on the evaluation of collectibility and aging analysis of note receivable, accounts receivable and other receivables.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost includes all costs of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition, and is calculated using the weighted average method. Market value is determined by reference to the sales proceeds of items sold in the ordinary course of business after the balance sheet date or to management estimates based on prevailing market conditions. An allowance for loss on obsolescence and decline in market value is provided, when necessary.

Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased.

Investments in Associates

Investments in other companies in which, through ownership and other factors, the Company has significant influence, but less than a majority of the voting common stock are accounted for under the equity method. Under the equity method the Company includes its share of the investee’s income or loss in its results of operations. The Company reviews its investments on a regular basis and considers factors including the operating results, available evidence of the market value and economic outlook of the relevant industry sector. When the Company concludes that an investment has suffered impairment that is other-than-temporary, the impairment is written off against earnings.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments approximate their fair values as of December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005 because of the relatively short-term maturity of these instruments.

Property, Equipment and Depreciation

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method to allocate the cost of depreciable assets over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

	Estimated Useful Life (In Years)

Land		Indefinite
Buildings		50
Furniture and fixtures		3-10
Transportation equipment		2.5-5
Miscellaneous equipment		5-10

Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged directly to the statement of operations as incurred. When assets are disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation thereon are removed from the financial statements and any resulting gain or loss is included in the statement of operations.

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)

Intangible Assets

Franchises and copyrights are stated at cost and amortized on the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of 10 years.

Long-lived Assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable. The Company does not perform a periodic assessment of assets for impairment in the absence of such information or indicators. Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or a significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets is not recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company measures fair value based on quoted market prices or based on discounted estimates of future cash flows.

Advertising Costs

All advertising costs incurred in the promotion of the Company’s products and services are expensed as incurred.

Income Taxes

The Group accounts for income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax liabilities or assets at the end of each period are determined using the currently enacted tax rate. Valuation allowances are established when it is not considered more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized.

Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The Company computes net earnings (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” Under the provisions of SFAS No. 128, basic net earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted net earnings (loss) per share gives effect to potential common shares. For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, the Group did not have any potential common shares.

Reclassification

The presentation of certain prior information has been reclassified to conform to current presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) released Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement 109”. Effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, this interpretation provides guidance on the financial statement recognition and measurement for income tax positions that we have taken or expect to take in our income tax returns. It also provides related guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. We have adopted this standard as of January 1, 2007. The adoption did not have a significant impact on our financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB released SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. The expanded disclosures include a requirement to disclose fair value measurements according to a hierachy, segregating measurements using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, significant other observable inputs, and significant unobservable inputs. This standard applies when other accounting pronouncements require fair value measurements; it does not require new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those years. This standard will affect our fair value disclosures, however it is not expected to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations

In February 2007, the FASB released SFAS No.159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The standard provides entities the ability, on an elective basis, to report most financial assets and financial liablities at fair value, with corresponding gains and losses recognized in current earnings. We did not elect the fair value option under SFAS No. 159 as of January 1, 2008 for any of our financial assets and liabilities that were not already accounted for at fair value. We will consider applying the fair value option to future transactions as provided by the standard. We do not expect SFAS No. 159 to have a material impact on our financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB released SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations.” This standard revises and enhances the guidance set forth in SFAS No. 141 by establishing a definition for the “acquirer,” providing additional guidance on the recognition of acquired contingencies and noncontrolling interests, and broadening the scope of the standard to include all transactions involving a transfer in control, irrespective of the consideration involved in the transfer. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date occurs in a fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Although the standard will not have any impact on our current Consolidated Financial Statements, application of the new guidance could be significant to the Company in the context of future merger and acquisition activity.

In December 2007, the FASB released SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements-an amendment of ARB No. 51.” This statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. We do not expect the standard to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 16 — RETIREMENT PLANS

The Group maintains tax-qualified defined contribution and benefit retirement plan for its employees in accordance with ROC Labor Standard Law. As a result, the Group currently maintains two different retirement plans with contribution and benefit calculation formulas. On July 1, 2005, the Bureau of National Health Insurance issued New Labor Retirement pension regulations in Taiwan. The Group has defined the new contribution retirement plan (the ‘New Plan”) covering all regular employees in KCIT, and KCIT contributes monthly an amount equals 6% of the employees’ basic salaries and wages to the Bureau of National Health Insurance. The Group still maintains the benefit retirement plan (the “Old Plan”), which commenced in September 2003 and only applies to the employees of KCIT who were employed before June 30, 2005. KCIT contributes monthly an amount equal to 2% of the employees’ total salaries and wages to an independent retirement trust fund deposited with the Central Trust of China in accordance with the ROC Labor Standards Law in Taiwan. The retirement fund is not included in the Group’s financial statements. Net periodic pension cost is based on annual actuarial valuations which use the projected unit credit cost method of calculation and is charged to the consolidated statement of operations on a systematic basis over the average remaining service lives of current employees. Contribution amounts are determined in accordance with the advice of professionally qualified actuaries in Taiwan. Under the plan, the employees are entitled to receive retirement benefits upon retirement in the manner stipulated by the relevant labor laws in Taiwan. The benefits under the plan are based on various factors such as years of service and the final base salary preceding retirement.

Note 1.

In the fourth quarter of 2005, Mr. Yang loaned $1,050,000 to the Company, and third parties, Olympic Well International Ltd. (“Olympic”) and Chen-Chen Shih (“Shih”), investors introduced to the Company by Mr. Pai, loaned $690,000 and $60,089, respectively. The loans were treated as short-term loans, due in three months, with a per annum interest rate of 7%. A portion of the loan made by Olympic in the amount of US$342,364 was assigned to Mr. Pai on or about December 30, 2005. That amount, along with $209,211 which was owed Mr. Yang, were forgiven in exchange for the Company’s forgiveness of Mr. Chiu’s debt to the Company of $551,575 (NT$18,500,000 based on the exchange rate prevailing at the time of the loans). Effective December 28, 2006 we entered into a loan settlement and conversion agreement with Messrs. Pai and Yang related to settlement of the above loans to the Company. Pursuant to the loan settlement and conversion agreement, the parties agreed to convert a portion of the loans to stock at the conversion price $0.15 per share and to issue promissory notes for the remaining amount. The promissory notes had a term of one year and had an annual interest rate of 7%. The amount of residual promissory notes for Messrs. Pai and Yang were $107,680 and $240,789, respectively, and as of December 31, 2006, accumulated interest on the notes was $2,346 and $4,838, payable for Messrs. Pai and Yang respectively. For further information, please refer to the Company’s Form 8-K/A filed on January 24, 2007.

		As of December 31, 2007, the promissory notes held by Mr. Pai and Mr. Yang were fully repaid. In July 2007, Mr. Yang loaned $40,713 (RMB300,000) to KCEI. The loan bears interest at 6% per annum and is due in March 2008.

	Note 2.	Amount due from ex-CFO:

		During the year ended December 31, 2004, certain improper withdrawals and subsequent repayments by the Company ’ s then Chief Financial Officer Yu-En Chiu have been recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as short term non-interest bearing advances to Mr. Chiu. Mr. Chiu made cash repayments and withdrawals to and from the Company on an intermittent basis during the year. During the year ended December 31, 2004, the highest balance of the advances to Mr. Yu-En Chiu was $328,546. As of December 31, 2004, Mr. Yu-En Chiu had repaid all outstanding advances to the Company. However, Mr. Chiu initiated further withdrawals on January 13, 2005. During 2005, the total amount of withdrawals were NT$95,000,000($2,953,337), and as of December 31, 2005, the highest balance of the deemed loan to Mr. Chiu at any time was NT$21,660,000 ($673,361). Mr. Chiu has repaid all such withdrawals to the Company and the amount due from officers was nil. The circumstances surrounding Mr. Chiu’s fund misappropriation is more fully described in our June 23, 2006 Form 8-K. (The currency in 8-K’s disclosure have been translated from New Taiwan Dollars to US dollars based on an exchange rate of US$1 = NT$33.42.) On June 1, 2006 Mr. Yu-En Chiu resigned as Chief Financial Officer and a Director of the Company following events that lead to the identification by current management of these improper cash advances and repayments. Mr. Chiu was temporarily reassigned to act as the chairman of the Company’s PRC operations, and on December 29, 2006, the Company notified Mr. Chiu that the termination of his employment with the Company was effective at February 28, 2007.

NOTE 21 — CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Group to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, trade notes receivable and accounts receivable. The Group’s cash are deposited with various financial institutions in the ROC and the PRC. The Group offers credit terms on the sale of its products to certain customers. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and, generally, requires no collateral from its customers.

The Company maintains an allowance for uncollectible notes receivable and accounts receivable based upon the expected collectability of all notes receivable and accounts receivable.

In addition to cash, notes receivable and accounts receivable, the Company’s financial instruments include notes payable and accounts payable, which are carried at cost, which approximates the fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

No individual customer of the Group accounted for more than 10% of operating revenues for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005. However, one major customer accounted for approximately 23% of notes (including current and long-term notes receivable) and accounts receivable as of December 31, 2007 and 2006.
