NEXTMART, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Nature of Operations.


On March 3, 2010, Next Mart, Inc. (herein referred to as “NextMart” or the “Company”), entered into a transaction termination agreement with Beijing Hua Hui Hengye Investment Lt. (“Hua Hui”), wherein both companies agreed to terminate and rescind the subscription and asset sale agreement previously entered into by the parties on August 1, 2009 (the “Original Agreement”). All considerations received by each party under the Original Agreement were returned to the issuing party.


On March 31, 2010, NextMart entered into an asset exchange and subscription agreement (the “Agreement”) with Miss Wang Yihan and Beijing Chinese Art Exposition's Media Co., Ltd. (“CIGE”), a leading Chinese art services, events, and media company located in Beijing, China. CIGE’s main business operations includes operating and managing the China International Gallery Exposition, the largest exhibition of art galleries in China, and operating and managing China’s “Gallery Guide” magazine, a monthly magazine featuring news and events targeting top Chinese art collectors and galleries with a monthly distribution rate of over 10,000 copies. Ms. Wang Yihan is the owner of 100% of CIGE and is the President of our Company. The Agreement was disclosed in our Form 8-K filed on March 31, 2010. Subsequently on May 10, 2010, NextMart, Beijing Chinese Art Exposition Media Co. Ltd., a PRC company (“CIGE”), and Miss Wang Yihan, the controlling shareholder of CIGE, agreed to amend the Agreement. The amendment was made effective as of March 31, 2010.


Under the terms of the amended agreement, NextMart agreed to sell directly to Ms. Wang the following assets: 1) 100% of the shares of William Brand Administer Ltd, a BVI registered company and a wholly owned subsidiary of NextMart; 100% of the shares of Credit Network 114 Limited, a BVI registered company and a wholly owned subsidiary of NextMart;  2) 100% of NextMart’s 60% shareholdings in Wuxi Sun Network Technology Ltd., a PRC registered company; 3) 100% of NextMart’s 80% shareholdings in Naixiu Exhibition Ltd., a PRC registered company; 4) the net assets of NextMart’s 100% owned subsidiary Cancer Institute of China Ltd. (a BVI registered company) and its 100% owned subsidiary China Cancer Institute Ltd. (a PRC registered company). The net assets being sold do not include the subsidiaries cash, office furniture and equipment, and third party creditor’s rights and third party debts, which shall remain the subsidiary’s property; 5) any other net assets and liabilities belonging to NextMart, with the exception of its 3,000 shares of China Grand Resorts Inc. common stock and its remaining US$750,000 liability under the convertible bond settlement agreement.


The parties placed a valuation of $5,391,255 on the above described assets, which amount is based on a third party valuation report of the assets prepared as of March 31, 2010. As consideration for the transfer of the above described assets, Ms. Wang agreed to transfer to NextMart within 24 months from date of the amended agreement certain land usage rights for commercial real estate property valued at no less than $5,390,000. The value of the land use rights will be determined by an appraisal conducted by a licensed third party appraiser acceptable to both parties. In the PRC there is no private land ownership in the PRC. Rather, land in the PRC is owned by the government and cannot be sold to any individual or entity. Instead, the government grants or allocates landholders a “land use right,” which is sometimes referred to informally as land ownership. Land use rights are granted for specific purposes and for limited periods. Each period may be renewed at the expiration of the initial and any subsequent terms. Granted land use rights are transferable and may be used as security for borrowings and other obligations.


In the event Ms. Wang fails to provide land usage rights for adequate real estate property within the 24 month period, she is obligated to



9





provide NextMart with tangible assets acceptable to NextMart which shall have a value of no less than $5,390,000.


Additionally, under the terms of the amended agreement, (i) CIGE will not transfer to NXMR ownership of its member database and the advertising sales rights for its CIGE art exposition events or Gallery Guide magazine, (ii), NextMart will not issue to CIGE the stock purchase warrants for 50,000,000 shares of its common stock, and (iii) the right of first refusal originally granted to NexMart has been rescinded. Separately, CIGE and SMIH and Redrock have agreed that SIMH and Redrock will not be transferring 8,775,086 and 65,386,214 shares of the Company’s common stock held by such parties, respectively, to CIGE as reported in the original Form 8-K.


As a result of these transactions,  NextMart’s current business operations consists of developing, marketing, and selling high end art products and co-branded art-themed luxury products. The Company has undertaken its art themed product sales business under a newly created “Artslux” brand and we will create and/or sell high end art products and co-branded art-themed luxury products by developing partnerships with well known artists and luxury goods producers.


Basis of Consolidation and Presentation


The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Nextmart, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries and variable interest entities or VIEs have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Investments in entities in which the Company can exercise significant influence, but which are less than majority owned and not otherwise controlled by the Company, are accounted for under the equity method. The Company has adopted FASB Interpretation No.46R consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, FIN 46R, an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No.51. FIN 46R requires a VIE to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss for the VIEs or is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE’s residual returns. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of consolidated financial position as of March 31, 2010, and consolidated results of operations, and cash flows for the three month periods and six months periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, as applicable, have been made. The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.


Use of estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses for the periods that the financial statements are prepared. Actual amounts could differ from these estimates.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.


Financial instruments


The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, other receivable, other payable and marketable securities. The



10





fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturity of the instruments.


Impairment of Long-lived Assets


The Company assesses the carrying value of long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No.144 (ASC No. 360), accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets. Factors considered important which could trigger this review include a significant decrease in operating results, a significant change in its use of assets, competitive factors, strategy of its business, and significant negative industry or economic trends. The company cannot predict the occurrence of future impairment-triggering events nor the impact such events might have on the reported asset values. Such events may include strategic decisions made in response to the economic conditions relative to product lines, operations and the impact of the economic environment on our customer base.  When the Company determines that the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable based on as assessment of future cash flows from the use of those assets, an impairment charge to record the assets at fair value may be recorded. Impairment is measured based on fair values utilizing estimated discounted cash flow, published third-party sources, and third-party offers.


Comprehensive Income (Loss)


The Company reports comprehensive income (loss) in accordance with FASB No. 130 (ASC No. 220), “Reporting Comprehensive Income (Loss)”. The comprehensive loss for the Company includes currency translation adjustments and unrealized loss on marketable securities.


Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements


In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued amended revenue recognition guidance for arrangements with multiple deliverables (ASU No. 2009-13) (ASC No. 605). The new guidance eliminates the residual method of revenue recognition and allows the use of management’s best estimate of selling price for individual elements of an arrangement when vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE), vendor objective evidence (VOE) or third-party evidence (TPE) is unavailable. For the Company, this guidance is effective for all new or materially modified arrangements entered into on or after January 1, 2011 with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year. Full retrospective application of the new guidance is optional. The Company is currently assessing its implementation of this new guidance, but does not expect a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.


In October 2009, the FASB issued guidance which amends the scope of existing software revenue recognition accounting (ASU No. 2009-14) (ASC No. 985). Tangible products containing software components and non-software components that function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality would be scoped out of the accounting guidance on software and accounted for based on other appropriate revenue recognition guidance. For the Company, this guidance is effective for all new or materially modified arrangements entered into on or after January 1, 2011 with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year. Full retrospective application of the new guidance is optional. This guidance must be adopted in the same period that the Company adopts the amended accounting for arrangements with multiple deliverables described in the preceding paragraph. The Company is currently assessing its implementation of this new guidance, but does not expect a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.


In September 2009, the FASB issued amended guidance concerning fair value measurements of investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share (or its equivalent) (ASU No. 2009-12) (ASC No. 820). If fair value is not readily determinable, the amended guidance permits, as a practical expedient, a reporting entity to measure the fair value of an investment using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) provided by the investee without further adjustment. The amendments are effective for interim and annual



11





periods ending after December 15, 2009. The Company does not expect a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements due to the adoption of this amended guidance.


In August 2009, the FASB issued guidance on the measurement of liabilities at fair value (ASU No. 2009-5) (ASC No. 820). The guidance provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted market price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, an entity is required to measure fair value using a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of an identical liability when traded as an asset or, if unavailable, quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar assets when traded as assets. If none of this information is available, an entity should use a valuation technique in accordance with existing fair valuation principles. The Company adopted this guidance in the year ended November 30, 2009 and there was no material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.


In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2009-02. “Amendments to Various Topics for Technical corrections.” ASU No. 2009-2 is an omnibus update that is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after July 1, 2009. This Statement did not impact the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.


In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 168 (ASC No. 105), “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” (the Codification). The Codification, which was launched on July 1, 2009, became the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP, superseding existing FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) and related literature. The Codification eliminates the GAAP hierarchy contained in SFAS No. 162 and establishes one level of authoritative GAAP. All other literature is considered non-authoritative. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company adopted this Statement for its year ended November 30, 2009. There was no change to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements due to the implementation of this Statement.


In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167 (ASC No. 810), “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R),” and SFAS No. 166 (ASC No. 860), “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 (ASC No. 860).” SFAS No. 167 amends FASB Interpretation 46(R) to eliminate the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity and requires ongoing qualitative reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. SFAS No. 166 amends SFAS No. 140 by removing the exemption from consolidation for Qualifying Special Purpose Entities (QSPEs). This Statement also limits the circumstances in which a financial asset, or portion of a financial asset, should be derecognized when the transferor has not transferred the entire original financial asset to an entity that is not consolidated with the transferor in the financial statements being presented and/or when the transferor has continuing involvement with the transferred financial asset. The Company will adopt these Statements for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of these standards to have any material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.


In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165 (ASC No. 855), “Subsequent Events.” This Statement sets forth: 1) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements; 2) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements; and 3) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. This Statement is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company adopted this Statement in the year ended November 30, 2009. This Statement did not impact the consolidated financial results.

Property, Plant and equipment


Property, Plant and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation.  Depreciation is computed primarily on the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes over the following estimated useful lives:


 

 

 

 

 

Years

Computer Software

 

3-5


Revenue recognition


We generate revenue through the provision of consulting services. We recognize revenues from consulting services in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104 (ASC No. 605), “Revenue Recognition,” when all of the following conditions exist: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists in the form of providing consulting services; or services have been rendered; the Company’s consulting fee received from the clients is fixed or determinable pursuant to the terms of the consulting agreement and these amounts appear to be collectible.


Cost of revenues


Cost of revenues includes salary and other related costs for our management services and technical support staff, as well as third-party contractor expenses.  Additionally cost of revenues includes fees for hosting facilities, bandwidth costs, and equipment and related depreciation costs. Cost of revenues will vary significantly from period to period depending on the level of management services provided.


Trade receivables and allowances for Doubtful Accounts


The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers to minimize credit risk. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management’s estimates of the collectability of its accounts receivable after analyzing historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, and current economic trends. Specifically, the Company reviews the aged accounts receivables listing for balances that are specifically identifiable as credit risks or uncollectible, and may use its judgment for calculation of allowances for doubtful accounts.


Earnings (loss) per share


Basic earnings (loss) per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. As the Company has a loss, presenting diluted net loss per share is considered anti-dilutive and not included in the statement of operations.  


Foreign currency translation


The financial statements are presented in United States dollars. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards



13





(“SFAS”) No. 52 (ASC No. 830), “Foreign Currency Translation”, since the functional currency of the Company is Renminbi (RMB), the foreign currency financial statements of the Company’s subsidiaries are re-measured into U.S. dollars (USD). Monetary assets and liabilities are translated using the foreign rate that prevailed at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at weighted average rates of exchange during the year and stockholders’ equity accounts and capital asset accounts are translated by using historical exchange rates. Any translation gain or loss incurred is reported in the consolidated statement of operations. In this period, we used 6.83603 RMB per USD for the weighted average rate, and we used 6.8372 RMB per USD as the balance sheet date rate (March 31, 2010).


Income taxes


The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109 (ASC No. 740). Under this method, future 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 balances. Future tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on future tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment. The tax loss arising from PRC can be carried forward for five years. Agreed tax losses by respective local tax authorities can be offset against future taxable profits of the respective companies. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize the future benefit, or if the future deductibility is uncertain.


Stock-based compensation


The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with SFAS No. 123 (ASC No. 505) and the conclusions reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force in Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services” (“EITF 96-18”). Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earlier of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by EITF 96-18.


Related Parties


Parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party, or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions.  Parties are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.


Deferred Charges


Payments made for future expenses are amortized over the life of service received.


Convertible Notes and Notes Issued with Stock Warrants


The Company accounts for convertible notes and notes issued with stock warrants in accordance with APB No. 14, Accounting for



14





Convertible Debt and Debt Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants. The proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes are allocated between the debt and the equity. The Company booked a discount on convertible notes for the conversion feature of the notes and warrants and is amortizing the discount over the life of the debt.


Reclassification

 

The comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

NOTE 4 - CONVERTIBLE NOTES, WARRANTS AND STOCK OPTIONS


On March 22, 2007, we executed a subscription agreement with certain accredited investors, including Professional Offshore Opportunity Fund Ltd, pursuant to which we agreed to issue a principal amount worth $1,500,000 in senior convertible promissory notes and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock. The notes were issued with “Class A” warrants to purchase up to 1,500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share and “Class B” warrants to purchase up to 1,500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share.  Upon exercise of any Class A or Class B warrant, the respective warrantholder will receive a “Class C” warrant to purchase that number of shares for which such Class A warrant or Class B warrant is exercised at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. The Class A and Class B warrants expire five years from the issue date. The financing was closed on March 29, 2007.The aggregate gross proceeds from the sale of the notes and warrants was $1,500,000.  The convertible notes were due and payable three years from the date of issuance. We prepaid all interest due under the convertible notes through the issuance of 1.5 million shares of our common stock.  The notes were initially convertible into our common shares at a conversion price of $1.00 per share.  After the occurrence of an event of default under the notes, the conversion price adjusts to eighty percent (80%) of the volume weighted average price of our common shares for the five trading days prior to a conversion date.


On February 6, 2009, we closed a Convertible Debt Settlement Agreement with these accredited investors (“Settlement Agreement”) pursuant to which we have re-purchased all of the outstanding senior convertible notes. We also amended the Warrants to remove any registration rights and purchase price reset provisions, among other changes. As additional consideration, limited mutual releases were given by the parties. In exchange for canceling the notes and underlying agreements, we agreed to pay back the principal amount of the Notes $(1,500,000), and $610,126 in interest and default penalties. We paid $250,000 of the $1,500,000 in the principal amount at closing, and are obligated to pay $250,000 every 90 days from closing until the principal is paid in full. In addition to the payment made at closing, we also made a payment of $150,000, $100,000 and $250,000 on the obligation due in July, October and December 2009, respectively. We also agreed to pay interest and penalties of $610,126 within 90 days from the closing. Payment of the stated amount may be in the form of common shares of CEC Unet Plc. (AIM: CECU) which we held on the agreement date or if the shares of CECU were not trading on the AIM Market, then in cash or cash equivalents. We disposed our holdings of CECU shares in the CIGE transaction. As such, we are now required to pay the interest and penalty amount due in cash or cash equivalents. As the date of this report, as mentioned above, we made payments of $750,000 in principal to date, and we have not made any payments on the interest and default penalty amount. We are in default of our obligations to these investors. It is possible the investors could initiate litigation against us which cause us to incur additional costs and expenses. The balance of $1.36 million which is due to these investors is included in other payables.


On March 9, 2009, we completed a Subscription Agreement with Redrock Capital Venture Ltd (“Redrock”), a BVI company, under which we issued up to $1,500,000 of our senior convertible notes (“Senior Notes”) to Redrock. On April 15, 2009, Redrock converted the $1,250,000 Senior Note into 83,333,333 shares of our common stock. We also issued Redrock 2,500,000 shares of our common stock as prepaid interest for the $1,250,000 Senior Note. On June 17, 2009, we received a notice of conversion from Redrock converting the $250,000 Senior Note into 16,666,667 shares of our common stock at a conversion price is $0.015 per share. On June 23, 2009, we issued 17,166,667 shares of our common stock to Redrock Capital Venture Limited. The amount represents 16,666,667 shares of our common stock issuable on conversion of the $250,000 Senior Note and 500,000 shares of our common stock issuable as prepaid interest

on the Senior Note.


On March 26, 2010, we completed a Convertible Debt Settlement Agreement with Beijing Hua Hui Hengye Investment Lt. (“Hua Hui”) to convert RMB 2,255,000 (approximately $329,866 USD) in outstanding loans due to Hua Hui into a convertible promissory note with a principal amount of $331,385 and will due in 18 months since issued date. The convertible promissory as effective as of March 3, 2010 and has the following features:

The Convertible Note is subordinate to an outstanding Convertible Debt Settlement Agreement and is senior to all

other current and future indebtedness of the Company.

In connection with the CIGE and Ms. Wang Yihan transaction of March 31 2010, and which was subsequently amended on May 10, 2010, NextMart has agreed to transfer to CIGE the following assets: 1) 100% of the shares of William Brand Administer Ltd, a BVI registered company and a wholly owned subsidiary of NextMart; 100% of the shares of Credit Network 114 Limited, a BVI registered company and a wholly owned subsidiary of NextMart;  2) 100% of NextMart’s 60% shareholdings in Wuxi Sun Network Technology Ltd., a PRC registered company; 3) 100% of NextMart’s 80% shareholdings in Naixiu Exhibition Ltd., a PRC registered company; 4) the net assets of NextMart’s 100% owned subsidiary Cancer Institute of China Ltd. (a BVI registered company) and its 100% owned subsidiary China Cancer Institute Ltd. (a PRC registered company).

NOTE 9— COMMON STOCK


Pursuant to the transaction termination agreement with Hua Hui, 250,000,000 shares previously issued to Hua Hui were cancelled on March 22, 2010.


On March 3, 2010, we completed a Convertible Debt Settlement Agreement with Beijing Hua Hui to convert RMB 2,255,000 (approximately $329,866 USD) in outstanding loans due to Hua Hui into a convertible promissory note with a principal amount of $331,385. The convertible promissory note is convertible into common stock at the $0.11 per share (see Note 4 - Convertible Notes, Warrants And Stock Options).



NOTE 10— GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT PLAN


The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2010, the Company had an accumulated deficit totaling $96,523,272 and its current assets exceeded its current liabilities by $(563,799). In view of the matters described above, the appropriateness of the going concern basis is dependent upon continuing operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company's ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.


In September 2008, due to market conditions, the Company determined to divest itself of the William Brand Administer Ltd’s women apparel business and other non-material businesses. In keeping that intent, in August 2009, as disclosed elsewhere herein, it effected an agreement with Beijing Hua Hui Hengye Investment Lt. which was subsequently rescinded by the parties terminated on March 3, 2010.


On March 31, 2010, NextMart entered into an asset exchange and subscription agreement (the “Agreement”) with Ms. Wang Yihan and



20





Beijing Chinese Art Exposition's Media Co., Ltd. (“CIGE”), a leading Chinese art services, events, and media company located in Beijing, China. CIGE’s main business operations includes operating and managing the China International Gallery Exposition, the largest exhibition of art galleries in China, and operating and managing China’s “Gallery Guide” magazine, a monthly magazine featuring news and events targeting top Chinese art collectors and galleries with a monthly distribution rate of over 10,000 copies. Miss Wang Yihan is the owner of 100% of CIGE. Under the Agreement, CIGE agreed to inject into NextMart certain assets and in exchange, NextMart has agreed to issue to CIGE warrants representing 50,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock as well as assign certain Company assets described below. The assets which CIGE agreed to inject into NextMart were as follows: 1) the CIGE member database, which is a database developed over the last six years that contains the names and data for over 10,000 individuals and companies; 2) exclusive ownership of the sales rights for the advertising space at every CIGE exhibition located in greater China (including Hong Kong and Macao, but excluding Taiwan) for the next 30 years, as well as control the commercial and editorial rights (meaning the right to control the content and advertising space but not ownership of the magazine or its day to day control), of its Gallery Guide magazine for the next 30 years; and 3) within 24 months CIGE agreed to transfer to NextMart at its discretion either; land usage rights acceptable to NextMart for property capable of being developed or used for the purpose holding art exhibitions with a valuation of $3,650,000, or common stock of a publicly traded company acceptable to NextMart which shall have a value of no less than US$3,650,000. In addition, the Company received the right of first refusal to participate in any future sale of CIGE’s common stock by CIGE or its controlling shareholder, Ms. Wang Yihan, to any third party. Ms. Wang Yihan also is the President of the Company.


As consideration for the CIGE assets listed above and the Right of First Refusal, NextMart agreed to issue to CIGE stock purchase warrants for 50,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrants”). The Warrants shall have an exercise price of US$0.016 and must be exercised within 24 months of being issued. Under the terms of the issuance, NextMart shall issue the warrants to CIGE within 10 days of signing the Agreement.


In addition to issuing the Warrants as consideration for the assets listed above, NextMart has agreed to transfer to CIGE the following assets: 1) 100% of the shares of William Brand Administer Ltd, a BVI registered company and a wholly owned subsidiary of NextMart; 100% of the shares of Credit Network 114 Limited, a BVI registered company and a wholly owned subsidiary of NextMart;  2) 100% of NextMart’s 60% shareholdings in Wuxi Sun Network Technology Ltd., a PRC registered company; 3) 100% of NextMart’s 80% shareholdings in Naixiu Exhibition Ltd., a PRC registered company; 4) the net assets of NextMart’s 100% owned subsidiary Cancer Institute of China Ltd. (a BVI registered company) and its 100% owned subsidiary China Cancer Institute Ltd. (a PRC registered company). The net assets being sold do not include the subsidiaries cash, office furniture and equipment, and third party creditor’s rights and third party debts, which shall remain the subsidiary’s property; 5) any other net assets and liabilities belonging to NextMart, with the exception of its 3,000 shares of China Grand Resorts Inc. common stock and its remaining US$750,000 liability under the convertible bond settlement agreement (the “Transferred Assets”).


The agreement between the parties was subsequently amended on May 10, 2010, with the amendment made effective as of March 31, 2010. Under the terms of the amended agreement, NextMart agreed to sell directly to Ms. Wang the Transferred Assets. The parties placed a valuation of $5,391,255 on the above described assets which amount is based on a third party valuation report of the assets prepared as of March 31, 2010.  


As consideration for the sale of the Transferred Assets, Ms. Wang agreed to transfer to NextMart within 24 months from date of the amended agreement certain land usage rights for commercial real estate property valued at no less than $5,390,000. The value of the land use rights will be determined by an appraisal conducted by a licensed third party appraiser acceptable to both parties. In the PRC, there is no private land ownership in the PRC. Rather, land in the PRC is owned by the government and cannot be sold to any individual or entity. The government grants or allocates landholders a “land use right,” which is sometimes referred to informally as land ownership.



21





Land use rights are granted for specific purposes and for limited periods. Each period may be renewed at the expiration of the initial and any subsequent terms. Granted land use rights are transferable and may be used as security for borrowings and other obligations. In the event Ms. Wang fails to provide land usage rights for adequate real estate property within the 24 month period, she is obligated to provide NextMart with tangible assets acceptable to NextMart which shall have a value of no less than $5,390,000.


Additionally, under the terms of the amended agreement, (i) CIGE will not transfer to NXMR ownership of its member database and the advertising sales rights for its CIGE art exposition events or Gallery Guide magazine, (ii), NextMart will not issue to CIGE the stock purchase warrants for 50,000,000 shares of its common stock, and (iii) the right of first refusal originally granted to NextMart has been rescinded. Separately, CIGE and SMIH and Redrock have agreed that SIMH and Redrock will not be transferring 8,775,086 and 65,386,214 shares of the Company’s common stock held by such parties, respectively, to CIGE as reported in the original Form 8-K.


As a result of these transactions, NextMart’s current business operations consists of developing, marketing, and selling high end art products and co-branded art-themed luxury products. The Company has undertake its art themed product sales business under a newly created “Artslux” brand and is developing partnerships with well known artists and luxury goods producers to create the art products and co-branded art themed luxury goods it plans to sell.


The Company is actively pursuing additional funding including arrangements with potential strategic partners in an effort to fund its ongoing working capital requirements. The Company’s expects that its working capital requirements for the next 12 month will be approximately $2,100,000. Management is hopeful that the above actions will allow the Company to continue its operations through the current fiscal year.  


NOTE 11— SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


As described above, on May 10, 2010, the Company amended the asset exchange and subscription agreement entered into by NextMart, CIGE, and Ms. Wang Yihan on March 31, 2010.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

Overview


Prior to fiscal year 2008, we had planned to develop an integrated online-offline direct sales platform for the ladies' apparel sector in China involving William Brand Administer Co. Ltd. However, our business and business strategy were adversely impacted in a material manner due to the appreciation of the Chinese currency (yuan) against the US dollar (which resulted in US consumers paying higher prices for products manufactured in China), coupled with an already weak US retail market. Accordingly, we were unable to meet our projected operating results and milestones for the various periods. The lack of operating results adversely impacted our stock price during the applicable periods. Due to the depressed price of our common stock together with the overall world-wide financial market turmoil, we were unable to raise the necessary funds to support our expansion strategy. Consequently in May 2008, we determined to change our business focus initially attempting to focus on the financial advisory/direct investments, and thereafter, redirecting this focus towards the healthcare industry in China.


After our transaction with Hua Hui in August 2009, our business strategy was to develop a network of upscale, private member health clubs in the PRC, however as noted above, on March 3, 2009 the Company and Hua Hui rescinded the transaction.


As a result of our recent transaction with CIGE and Wang Yihan, as amended, our future business strategy is develop, market, and sell art products and art-themed luxury goods. The Company is currently setting up a PRC operating company in order to operate its art-themed product sales division. Under the brand name of “Artslux”, the Company plans to leverage its shareholder resources to form partnerships with the world’s most recognized artists and high-end luxury goods providers to create and/or sell art products and co-branded art-themed luxury products. Art products that the Company is considering selling include items such as lithographs and professional replicas of various art pieces produced by partnered artists. The Company is currently working to begin producing and selling art-themed products which would include limited edition wines and liquors produced by internationally acclaimed producers with customized labels featuring the works of renowned Chinese and international artists, or other luxury goods like watches, jewelry, etc. produced by the



23





leading brands but featuring designs by partnered artists. We expect that the Artslux operation will consist of a team initially of 5 employees, including a head of operations, sales manager, marketing manager, product developer, and product designer. This team is already in place and is currently being supported by an affiliate of our major shareholders SMIH and Redrock. Upon the completing the registration of the PRC operational company by NextMart, the Artslux team will operate under the new company. We expect that the total costs for the company’s product sales division will be approximately US$2,100,000 for the first year of operations. Of the $2,100,000 amount, $1,242,000 is allocated to cost of sales which includes product purchasing and artist licensing fees, $640,000 is allocated to selling expenses including marketing and logistics, and $248,000 is allocated to general and administrative expenses including rent, salaries of 5 employees mentioned above, office expenses, and miscellaneous expenses. The Company is hopeful to initially fund a majority of the required expenses from shareholder loans, with the remainder of the required capital for the business expected to come from a combination of revenues from operations and from a planned round of fundraising from third parties. We expect to generate sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Please refer to our Form 8-K filed on May 14, 2010, for a description of the amended agreement with the CIGE and Ms. Wang Yihan. Ms. Wang is the Company’s President and CEO.

As of March 31, 2010, we had total assets of $3,814,412, total liabilities of $4,037,173 and a working capital deficit of $(563,799).


On March 26, 2010, effective however on March 3, 2010, we completed a Convertible Debt Settlement Agreement with Beijing Hua Hui Hengye Investment Lt. (“Hua Hui”) to convert RMB 2,255,000 (approximately $329,866 USD) in outstanding loans due to Hua Hui into a convertible promissory note with a principal amount of $331,385. The issued notes were due on demand and interest accrued at the rate of 6% per annum until paid.


The Company expects that the total costs for the company’s product sales division will be approximately $2,100,000 for the first year of operations. Of the $2,100,000 amount, $1,242,000 is allocated to cost of sales which includes product purchasing and artist licensing fees, $640,000 is allocated to selling expenses including marketing and logistics, and $248,000 is allocated to general and administrative expenses including rent, salaries of 5 employees mentioned above, office expenses, and miscellaneous expenses. The Company is hopeful to initially fund approximately $500,000 of the required expenses from loans from shareholders or their affiliates, with the



26





remainder of the required capital for the business expected to come from a combination of revenues from operations and from a planned round of fundraising from third parties. We expect to generate sales from the sale of our art themed products during the third quarter of fiscal 2010. Thereafter, the Company believes that revenues from its operations will support its ongoing operational needs. Presently, we have no arrangement or understanding with any party, including any shareholder or their affiliates, regarding the raising of required capital. We cannot provide assurances that we will be successful in our efforts to enhance our liquidity. If we are unable to raise sufficient funds to meet our cash requirements as described above, we may be required to curtail, suspend, or discontinue our current and/or proposed operations. Our inability to raise additional funds as described above may forced us to restructure, file for bankruptcy, sell assets or cease operations, any of which could adversely impact our business and business strategy, and the value of our capital stock. Due to the current price of our common stock, any common stock based financing, including transactions with affiliates which may entail the equity conversion of existing loans, will create significant dilution to the then existing stockholders. In addition, in order to conserve capital and to provide incentives for our employees and service providers, it is conceivable that we may issue stock for services in the future, which also may create significant dilution to existing stockholders.


NextMart reminds investors that its plans to re-structure its business and adopt a new business in art related industry will be subject to various conditions and requirements. These conditions and requirements include but are not limited to the ability to obtain capital in the near term, formal agreements with numerous parties including artists, luxury goods manufacturers, and real estate developers, certain asset valuations, and various approvals including potentially other regulatory approvals, none of which can be affirmed as of the date of this report. The Company also reminds investors that even if it is able to meet the various conditions and requirements indicated above, it can not predict whether it will be successful with its new business initiatives.


Contractual Obligations

 None.


New Accounting Pronouncements


In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued amended revenue recognition guidance for arrangements with multiple deliverables (ASU No. 2009-13) (ASC No. 605). The new guidance eliminates the residual method of revenue recognition and allows the use of management’s best estimate of selling price for individual elements of an arrangement when vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE), vendor objective evidence (VOE) or third-party evidence (TPE) is unavailable. For the Company, this guidance is effective for all new or materially modified arrangements entered into on or after January 1, 2011 with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year. Full retrospective application of the new guidance is optional. The Company is currently assessing its implementation of this new guidance, but does not expect a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.


In October 2009, the FASB issued guidance which amends the scope of existing software revenue recognition accounting (ASU No. 2009-14) (ASC No. 985). Tangible products containing software components and non-software components that function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality would be scoped out of the accounting guidance on software and accounted for based on other appropriate revenue recognition guidance. For the Company, this guidance is effective for all new or materially modified arrangements entered into on or after January 1, 2011 with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year. Full retrospective application of the new guidance is optional. This guidance must be adopted in the same period that the Company adopts the amended accounting for arrangements with multiple deliverables described in the preceding paragraph. The Company is currently assessing its implementation of this new guidance, but does not expect a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.


In September 2009, the FASB issued amended guidance concerning fair value measurements of investments in certain entities that



27





calculate net asset value per share (or its equivalent) (ASU No. 2009-12) (ASC No. 820). If fair value is not readily determinable, the amended guidance permits, as a practical expedient, a reporting entity to measure the fair value of an investment using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) provided by the investee without further adjustment. The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009. The Company does not expect a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements due to the adoption of this amended guidance.


In August 2009, the FASB issued guidance on the measurement of liabilities at fair value (ASU No. 2009-5) (ASC No. 820). The guidance provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted market price in an active market for an identical liability is not available, an entity is required to measure fair value using a valuation technique that uses the quoted price of an identical liability when traded as an asset or, if unavailable, quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar assets when traded as assets. If none of this information is available, an entity should use a valuation technique in accordance with existing fair valuation principles. The Company adopted this guidance in the year ended November 30, 2009 and there was no material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.


In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2009-02. “Amendments to Various Topics for Technical corrections.” ASU No. 2009-2 is an omnibus update that is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after July 1, 2009. This Statement did not impact the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.


In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 168 (ASC No. 105), “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification TM and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” (the Codification). The Codification, which was launched on July 1, 2009, became the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP, superseding existing FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) and related literature. The Codification eliminates the GAAP hierarchy contained in SFAS No. 162 and establishes one level of authoritative GAAP. All other literature is considered non-authoritative. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company adopted this Statement for its year ended November 30, 2009. There was no change to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements due to the implementation of this Statement.


In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167 (ASC No. 810), “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R),” and SFAS No. 166 (ASC No. 860), “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 (ASC No. 860).” SFAS No. 167 amends FASB Interpretation 46(R) to eliminate the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity and requires ongoing qualitative reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. SFAS No. 166 amends SFAS No. 140 by removing the exemption from consolidation for Qualifying Special Purpose Entities (QSPEs). This Statement also limits the circumstances in which a financial asset, or portion of a financial asset, should be derecognized when the transferor has not transferred the entire original financial asset to an entity that is not consolidated with the transferor in the financial statements being presented and/or when the transferor has continuing involvement with the transferred financial asset. The Company will adopt these Statements for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on January 1, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of these standards to have any material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.


In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165 (ASC No. 855), “Subsequent Events.” This Statement sets forth: 1) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements; 2) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements; and 3) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or



28





transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. This Statement is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company adopted this Statement in the year ended November 30, 2009. This Statement did not impact the consolidated financial results.


 

Off-Balance Sheet Commitments and Arrangements

 

We have not entered into any financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. In addition, we have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our own shares and classified as stockholder’s equity, or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. Moreover, we do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.

 

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to our audited consolidated financial statements previously included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2009. We prepare our financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the financial reporting period.

  

Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of our accounting policies require higher degrees of judgment than others in their application. We consider the policies discussed below to be critical to an understanding of our financial statements as their application places the most significant demand on our management’s judgment.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We generate revenue through consulting services and recognize such revenues from consulting services in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104 (ASC No. 605), “Revenue Recognition,” when all of the following conditions exist: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists in the form of providing consulting services; or services have been rendered; the Company’s consulting fee received from the clients is fixed or determinable pursuant to the terms of the consulting agreement and these amounts appear to be collectible.

 

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes under the provisions of SFAS No. 109 (ASC No. 740), "Accounting for Income Taxes," as described in Note 8 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended September 30, 2009. We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that we believe is more likely than not to be realized. In the event we were to determine that we would be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their recorded amount, an adjustment to our deferred tax assets would increase our income in the period such determination was made. Likewise, if we determine that we would not be able to realize all or part of our net deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to our



29





deferred tax assets would be charged to our income in the period such determination is made. We record income tax expense on our taxable income using the balance sheet liability method at the effective rate applicable in China in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we undertook an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Securities Exchange Act of 1934, Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure (a) that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms and (b) that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.


There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the three month ended March 31, 2010 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
