CHINA EDUCATION TECHNOLOGY INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010 and 2009
(Stated in US Dollars)
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with both generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) that are, in the opinion of management, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared with the presumption that users of the interim financial information have read or have access to the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements for the preceding fiscal year. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 thereto contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
2. | ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND |
China Education Technology Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware in 1996 in name of Envirosafe Corporation. Its shares were traded on the OTC Bulletin Board of the United States of America.
On October 6, 2008, the Company redomiciled from Delaware to Nevada. Additionally, on October 9, 2008, the Company’s board of directors authorized and approved a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Split”) of the Company’s common stock on the basis of one share for eight shares currently authorized or issued and outstanding. Accordingly, the number of authorized shares of common stock decreased from 400,000,000 shares to 50,000,000 shares and the number of issued and outstanding shares decreased from 22,141,375 shares to 2,767,672 shares. The Reverse Split was effective on October 31, 2008. The Company has retroactively adjusted all the share information to reflect the reverse stock split in the audited condensed consolidated financial statements.
The Company is an investment holding company, whose only asset is 100% equity interest in ADDE Education Hldgs Limited (“ADDE”). ADDE is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) and is an investment holding company whose only asset is 100% equity interest in Guangzhou Haoyu Educational Technology Company Limited (“Haoyu”). Haoyu was established in the PRC on March 27, 2001 as a domestic enterprise.
On March 1, 2008, ADDE entered into an agreement with the then sole stockholder of Haoyu to acquire the stockholder’s entire interest in Haoyu (the “Transfer”) at a consideration of Renminbi (“RMB”) 1 million. Haoyu was wholly owned by the spouse of ADDE’s sole stockholder before the consummation of the Transfer. The Transfer was subsequently approved by the government bureau in May 2008. Haoyu re-registered as a wholly foreign owned enterprise and obtained its business license in August 2008.
On March 4, 2008, a Plan of Exchange (the “Exchange”) was executed between and among the Company, ADDE, the majority stockholder of the Company and the stockholder of ADDE. The Exchange was consummated on July 31, 2008, pursuant to which 2,500,000 (after taking into account the Reverse Split) shares of the Company’s common stock and 1,350,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock were issued to the stockholder of ADDE. Thereafter, ADDE and Haoyu became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries and the former stockholder of ADDE owned 93.2% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares.
The Exchange and the Transfer have been respectively accounted for as reverse acquisition and recapitalization of the Company and ADDE whereby ADDE is deemed to be the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and the Company to be the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer) under the Exchange, and Haoyu is deemed to be the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and ADDE to be the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer) under the Transfer. The audited condensed consolidated financial statements are in substance those of Haoyu, with the assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses, of the Company and ADDE being included effective from the respective consummation dates of the Exchange and the Transfer.
China Education Technology Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, ADDE and Haoyu, are hereafter referred to as (the “Company”).
On April 3, 2008, the Company changed its corporate name to China Education Technology Inc. to more accurately reflect its business after the Exchange transaction with ADDE and Hao Yu.
3. | DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS |
The Company’s primary business operations are conducted through Haoyu, which is specialized in the research and development of educational products and technology applications. Haoyu is located in the Guangzhou Province of the PRC with three manufacture bases for research and development purpose.
The educational software developed by the Company is in conformity to the new educational purpose. The software uses the advanced technology of data collection, sensor and wireless control and video image with handy appearance, which can virtually upload the live experiment and analyze the information collected. Teachers and students can have the experiments done automatically instead of the traditional method by hand.
The Company also engages in the trading of hardware and computer products such as monitors and computer notebooks.

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
(Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-06)
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) - Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements.” ASU 2010-06 requires new disclosures regarding transfers in and out of the Level 1 and 2 and activity within Level 3 fair value measurements and clarifies existing disclosures of inputs and valuation techniques for Level 2 and 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2010-06 also includes conforming amendments to employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan assets. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosure of activity within Level 3 fair value measurements, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after Decembe r 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those years. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operation.
Subsequent Events
(Included in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 855 “Subsequent Events”, previously SFAS No. 165 “Subsequent Events”)
SFAS No. 165 established general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are issued or available to be issued (“subsequent events”). An entity is required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated and the basis for that date. For public entities, this is the date the financial statements are issued. SFAS No. 165 does not apply to subsequent events or transactions that are within the scope of other GAAP and did not result in significant changes in the subsequent events reported by the Company. SFAS No. 165 became effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2009 and did not impact the Company’s financial statements.

The principal and accrued interest of the bank loan was paid in full as of September 30, 2010. Accordingly, the first deposit of $115,133 was refunded by the guarantor as of September 30, 2010. The remaining balance was expected to be refunded in full during the fourth quarter of 2010.
The Company maintains a policy of providing after sales support for certain products by way of a warranty program. The Company provided 3 years warranties for the software products to certain customers. Further, the relevant customers are allowed to defer the settlement of certain percentage (normally 5%) of the billed amount for certain period of time (normally three year) after acceptance of the Company’s products under the warranty program.
Since the aforementioned products were well developed, the Company did not encounter any claims from such customers. However, the Company will periodically assess the estimation of its warranty liability and recognize the reserve when necessary based on the actual experience.
As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company had warranty and maintenance reserves of $31,757 and $50,976, respectively.
10. | AMOUNT DUE TO A DIRECTOR |
The balances due to a director represented unsecured advances which are interest-free and repayable on demand. As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the balances of due to a director were $140,229 and $97,279, respectively.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains various “forward looking statements” within regarding future events or the future financial performance of the Company that involve risks and uncertainties. Certain statements included in this 10-Q, including, without limitation, statements related to anticipated cash flow sources and uses, and words including but not limited to “anticipates”, “believes”, “plans”, “expects”, “future” and similar statements or expressions, identify forward looking statements. Any forward-looking statements herein are subject to certain risks and uncertainties in the Company’s business, including but not limited to, reliance on key customers and competition in its markets, market demand, product performance, technological deve lopments, maintenance of relationships with key suppliers, difficulties of hiring or retaining key personnel and any changes in current accounting rules, all of which may be beyond the control of the Company. Management will elect additional changes to revenue recognition to comply with the most conservative SEC recognition on a forward going accrual basis as the model is replicated with other similar markets (i.e. SBDC). The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth therein.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included herein.
OVERVIEW
As used herein the terms "We", the "Company", "CEDT", the "Registrant," or the "Issuer" refers to China Education Technology Inc., its subsidiary and predecessors, unless indicated otherwise. We were originally incorporated in Delaware in 1996 as Envirosafe Corporation. On October 6, 2008, our board decided to redomicile from the State of Delaware to the State of Nevada. Their decision was approved by the holders of a majority of the voting rights of our common stock. On April 3, 2009, we changed our name to China Education Technology, Inc. to more accurately reflect our business after the Exchange (as defined below) between ADDE and Haoyu.
We are an investment holding company, whose only asset is a 100% equity interest in ADDE Education Hldgs Limited (“ADDE”). ADDE is a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) and is an investment holding company whose only asset is a 100% equity interest in Guangzhou Haoyu Educational Technology Company Limited (“Haoyu”). Haoyu was originally established in the PRC on March 27, 2001 as a domestic enterprise.
On March 1, 2008, ADDE entered into an agreement with the then sole stockholder of Haoyu to acquire the stockholder’s entire interest in Haoyu (the “Transfer”) for consideration of 1,000,000 Renminbi (“RMB”). Haoyu was wholly owned by the spouse of ADDE’s sole stockholder before the consummation of the Transfer. The Transfer was subsequently approved by the government bureau in May 2008. Haoyu re-registered as a wholly foreign owned enterprise and obtained its business license in August 2008.
On March 4, 2008, a Plan of Exchange (the “Exchange”) was executed between and among the Company, ADDE, the majority stockholder of the Company and the majority stockholder of ADDE. The Exchange was consummated on July 31, 2008, pursuant to which 2,500,000 (after taking into account the Reverse Split) shares of the Company’s common stock and 1,350,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock were issued to the stockholder of ADDE. Thereafter, ADDE and Haoyu became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries and the former stockholder of ADDE owned 93.2% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares.
The Exchange and the Transfer have been respectively accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization of the Company and ADDE whereby ADDE is deemed to be the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and the Company to be the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer) under the Exchange, and Haoyu is deemed to be the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and ADDE to be the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer) under the Transfer. The audited condensed consolidated financial statements are in substance those of Haoyu, with the assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses, of the Company and ADDE being included effective from the respective consummation dates of the Exchange and the Transfer.
Since the reverse merger was consummated, we have continued operation conducted through Haoyu, which is specializes in the research and development of educational products and technology applications. Haoyu is located in the Guangzhou Province of the PRC with three manufacture bases for research and development purpose.
The educational software developed by the Company is in conformity to the new educational purpose. The software uses advanced technology of data collection, sensor and wireless control and video imaging, which can virtually upload live media and analyze the information collected. Our software allows teachers and students to conduct experiments automatically instead of the traditional method by hand.
The Company also engages in the trading of hardware and computer products such as monitors and computer notebooks.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are based upon our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which we have prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimates are based on historical experience, knowledge of economic and market factors and various other assumptions that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
On a regular basis we evaluate our estimates, assumptions and judgments and make changes accordingly. An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, if different estimates reasonably could have been used, or if changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur could materially impact the financial statements. We believe that the estimates, assumptions and judgments involved in revenue recognition, receivables and allowances for doubtful accounts, accruals, inventories, income taxes, warranty, warranty and maintenance reserves have the greatest potential impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements, so we consider these to be our critical accounting policies.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
For a description of the new accounting standards that affect us, see Note 4 of notes to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 AND 2009 (UNAUDITED)
Revenues
Our revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $37,342 and $54,018, respectively, compared to revenues of $194,821 and $1,166,281 for the comparative periods ended September 30, 2009, respectively. We generated our revenues from sales of information collectors, sensors, digital meteorological stations, and digital analyzing software, certain products of which were covered by a warranty program for 3 years provided by the Company. The warranty liability will be assessed periodically and amortized over time when no actual claims occurred. We had small sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 since the current market demand for digital labs dropped significantly as results of a decrease in government subsidies. Approximately 21% and 37% of the revenues for three and nine months ended Sept ember 30, 2010, respectively, were due primarily to the amortization of the warranty liabilities.
Income / Losss
We had net income of $98,005 and net loss of $154,919 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the net income of $136,634 and $581,260 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively. The net income of $98,005 during the third quarter of 2010 was due primarily to a collection of previously written off accounts receivable in the amount of $168,048, which were included under recovery of bad debt in the accompanying financial statements.
The net loss of $154,919 during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was due primarily to the decrease in sales by $1,112,263. In addition, we had no subsidy income in 2010, which was $184,769 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.
Expenses
Operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 were $49,668 and $318,987 respectively, compared to operating expenses of $77,047 and $252,104 for the same periods ended September 30, 2009. The decrease in operating expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2010 was due primarily to the decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as results of decrease in sales as discussed above. The operating expenses remained high during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 was due primarily to the bad debt expenses of $168,048, which were offset by other income under recovery of bad debt after the collection in the third quarter of 2010. Our research and development expenses also decreased significantly in the nine months of 2010. We reduced our research and development activities due to the dec reasing sales.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold included expenses directly related to the manufacturing and selling our products. Product delivery and direct labor would be examples of cost of goods sold items. We had $27,745 in cost of goods sold for both three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010. We had no cost of goods sold during the first half of 2010 due to the revenues for these periods primarily from the amortization of the warranty liabilities. Comparably, we had $33,843 and $431,728 in cost of goods sold, or 17.4% and 37.0% of sales revenue, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009, respectively.
Impact of Inflation
We believe that inflation has had a negligible effect on operations during this period. We believe that we can offset inflationary increases in the cost of sales by increasing sales and improving operating efficiencies.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash flows provided by operating activities were $689,479 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, compared to cash flows of $57,006 used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2009. Positive cash flows from operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 were due primarily to the collection in trade receivables by $700,240 and the receipt of refundable deposits in amount of $117,462, which was held by an independent party acting as a guarantor for us in connection with a short-term loan from a bank. The short-term loan was paid in full during the third quarter of 2010. Negative cash flows from operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were due primarily to the increases in other receivables and prepayments by $630,819, the increase in refundable deposits by $220,823, and the incre ase in inventories by $124,253, partially offset by the net income of $581,260, plus the increase in trade payables by $208,347.
We had cash flows of $1,845 and $221,136 used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, attributable to payments to acquire property, plant, and equipment for both periods.
We had cash flows of $693,389 used in financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 due to the repayment of $734,519 to the short-term loan, offset by a loan of $41,130 from our director, representing unsecured advances which were interest-free and repayable on demand. Comparably, we had cash flows of $292,869 provided by investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, attributable to the proceeds from short-term loan.
Overall, we have funded our cash needs from inception through September 30, 2010 with a series of debt and equity transactions, primarily with related parties. If we are unable to receive additional cash from our related parties, we may need to rely on financing from outside sources through debt or equity transactions. Our related parties are under no legal obligation to provide us with capital infusions. Failure to obtain such financing could have a material adverse effect on operations and financial condition.
We had cash of $24,115 on hand and a working capital of $627,763 as of September 30, 2010. Currently, we do not have enough cash to fund our operations for about nine months. This is based on our projected revenues. We will then need to obtain additional capital through equity or debt financing to sustain operations for an additional year. Our current level of operations would require capital of approximately $150,000 to sustain operations through year 2010 and approximately $500,000 per year thereafter. Modifications to our business plans may require additional capital for us to operate. For example, if we are unable to raise additional capital in the future we may need to curtail our number of product offers or limit our marketing efforts to the most profitable geographical areas. This may result in lower revenues and market share fo r us. In addition, there can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to us when needed or available on terms favorable to us.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MAR KET RISK
The information to be reported under this item is not required of smaller reporting companies.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods. Our Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer (collectively, the “Certifying Officers”) are responsible for maintaining our disclosure controls and procedures. The controls and procedures established by us are designed to provide reasonable assurance 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 Commission’s rules and forms.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Certifying Officers evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation, the Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Certifying Officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
The Certifying Officers have also concluded, based on their evaluation of our controls and procedures that as of September 30, 2010, our internal controls over financial reporting are effective and provide a reasonable assurance of achieving their objective.
The Certifying Officers have also concluded that there was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation that occurred during our fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Conclusions regarding disclosure controls and procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures are the Company’s controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Execu tive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-14(c) promulgated under the Exchange Act as of September 30, 2010, and, based on their evaluation, as of the end of such period, the our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by the Quarterly Report,
(b) Management’s Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. It is management’s responsibilities to establish and maintain adequate internal controls over the Company’s financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the issuer’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the issuer’s management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies a nd procedures that:
• Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the issuer; and
• Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management of the issuer; and
• Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the issuer’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
As of the end of the period covered by the Quarterly Report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.
Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2010. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.
Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, internal controls over financial reporting were effective as of the end of the period covered by the Report.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are k nown features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
This Quarterly Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Quarterly Report.
(c) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
