3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(d) Economic and political risks
The Group’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Group’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.
The Group’s operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Group’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.
(e) Concentrations
The Group has three major markets which accounted for the following percentages of total sales and total accounts receivable for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006:

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(g) Plant and equipment
Plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of the plant and equipment are as follows:
Buildings 20 years
Machinery 10 years
Motor vehicles 5 years
Office equipment 5 years
Other equipment 5 years
The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the statement of income. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to income as incurred, whereas significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.
(h) Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The long-lived assets held and used by the Group are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. It is reasonably possible that these assets could become impaired as a result of technology or other industry changes. Determination of recoverability of assets to be held and used is by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the assets.
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
During the reporting years, there was no impairment loss.
(i) Construction in progress
Construction in progress represents direct costs of construction or acquisition and design fees incurred. Capitalization of these costs ceases and the construction in progress is transferred to plant and equipment when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use are completed. No depreciation is provided until it is completed and ready for intended use.
(j) Inventories
Inventories consisting of raw materials, work-in-progress and finished goods are stated at the lower of weighted average cost or market value. Finished goods are comprised of direct materials, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overhead.
(k) Trade Receivables
Trade receivables are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable. Bad debts are written off as incurred.
(l) Advances to suppliers
Advances to suppliers represent the cash paid in advance for purchasing raw materials.

(m) Cash and cash equivalents
The Group considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Group maintains bank accounts only in the PRC. The Group does not maintain any bank accounts in the United States of America.
(n) Restricted Cash
Restricted cash represents time deposits on account to secure notes payable.
(o) Marketable Securities
The Group’s investment in marketable securities consists of an investment in a Chinese open-ended fund that invests in Chinese corporate equity securities. The Group’s investment is classified as available-for-sale. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”, unrealized gains and losses on this investment is included in other comprehensive income, a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses from the sales of marketable securities and declines in value considered to be other than temporary are to be included in other income (expense).
(p) Foreign currency translation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The functional currency of the Group is the Renminbi (RMB). The consolidated financial statements are translated into United States dollars from RMB at year-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred.
| | | | | |
| | | September 30, | | December 31, |
| | | 2007 | 2006 |
Year end RMB : US$ exchange rate | | 7.5176 | | 7.8003 |
Average RMB : US$ exchange rate | | 7.6758 | | 7.9637 |
The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at the rates used in translation.
(q) Revenue recognition
Revenue represents the invoiced value of goods sold recognized upon the delivery of goods to customers. Revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met:
-Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
-Delivery has occurred or services have been rendered,
-The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and
-Collectibility is reasonably assured. Payments have been established.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(r) Income taxes
The Company accounts for income tax using an asset and liability approach and allows for recognition of deferred tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Group is able to realize their benefits, or that future realization is uncertain.
The Management believes that one of the Company’s subsidiaries, Polara Global Limited, which is a British Virgin Island incorporated company that has not been carrying out any business activity in Hong Kong, has accepted certain trading receipt from businesses concluded outside Hong Kong, which Management believes that there should be no Hong Kong profits tax exposure. However, for the sake of prudence, there is Hong Kong profits tax of 17.5% being provided on the loss of Polara Global Limited as nil for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 respectively in accordance with the relevant tax laws and regulations of Hong Kong.
Deyi is operating in the PRC, and in accordance with the relevant tax laws and regulations of PRC, the corporation income tax rate is 33%. However, also in accordance with the relevant taxation laws in the PRC, from the time that a company has its first profitable tax year, a foreign investment company is exempt from corporate income tax for its first two years and is then entitled to a 50% tax reduction for the succeeding three years. The Company’s first profitable tax year was 2003. The Company will be levied at the 33% tax rate in 2008. As such, the Company’s income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 was $223,181 and $142,846 respectively.
(s) Advertising

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(v) Comprehensive income
Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income are required to be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other consolidated financial statements. The Group’s current components of other comprehensive income are the foreign currency translation adjustment.
(w) Recent accounting pronouncements
In May 2005, the FASB issued a SFAS 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” to replace APB Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes” and SFAS 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements” requiring retrospective application to prior periods consolidated financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. When it is impracticable to determine the period-specific effects of an accounting change on one or more individual prior periods presented, SFAS 154 requires the new accounting principle be applied to the balances of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the earliest period for which retrospective application is practicable and that a corresponding adjustment be made to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other appropriate components of equity or net assets in the statement of fi nancial position) for that period rather than being reported in an income statement. When it is impracticable to determine the cumulative effect of applying a change in accounting principle to all prior periods, SFAS 154 requires that the new accounting principle be applied as if it were adopted prospectively from the earliest date practicable.
The effective date for this Statement is for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2005.
In February 2006, the FASB issued a SFAS 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments” to amend FASB Statements No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. This statement permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation and eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. This statement is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006.
The Group does not anticipate that the adoption of these two standards will have a material impact on these consolidated financial statements.

OPERATION AND FINANCIAL REVIEW
New Fiber Cloth Technology, Inc. (the Company) formerly Park Hill Capital III Corp., was incorporated in the State of Nevada, United States on March 2, 1999.
On July 31, 2006, the Company underwent a reverse-merger with Polara Global Limited (Polara), a British Virgin Islands international business company. Pursuant to the Share Exchange, the Company changed its name to New Fiber Cloth Technology, Inc. and effectuated an increase in the Company's authorized common stock from 25,000,000 to 200,000,000.
The Company has completed a recapitalization process with Polara Global Limited in Year 2006 and our Group consists of the Polara Global Limited which is incorporated in the British Virgin Islands as the holding company for Deyi Fabric Factory, the major operating subsidiary in China. The principal activities of the Group are manufacturing, dyeing and selling fashion clothes materials. The products are distributed to Asia, Europe, North America, Australia and Africa.
The Group’s business remains unchanged in Year 2007.
(a) Revenue
There is 47.8% increase in sales revenue in the first nine months of 2007 when compare to the first nine months in 2006 and with a gross profit margin of 9.4%.
In the third quarter, the Group has got sales revenue of $17,491,554, there is 81.4% increase in the sales revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2006. The increase in sales revenue is mainly brought by the new product line that launched in the first quarter of 2007.
The gross profit margin has been decreased from 13.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 to 9.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007. In the third quarter, the gross profit margin has been decreased from 13.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2006 to 11.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2007. The decrease of the gross profit margin is due to the new product line (cotton linen mixed fabric) put into production. The Company has experienced loss on the new product in the first quarter of Year 2007 due to a lack of production experience in cotton linen mixed fabric.
The new product line started production in the first quarter of 2007. It brought a gross loss of 4% to the Group in the first quarter. As the production technique of cotton linen mixed fabric becomes matured, the new product brought a gross profit of 6.2% to the Group in the second quarter of 2007. As the production technique enhanced and the product quality was ensured, the new product line continued to bring stable profit to the Group.
The new product cotton linen mixed fabric will be a major product of the Company for the whole year as the consumers in China nowadays demand products which are made from natural substance, of higher qualities and are environmentally-friendly. The production of cotton linen mixed fabric suits the consumers demand and the Company has imported advanced machinery from Italy and hired experts in textile from Italy to raise the quality of the products.

(b) Revenue by geographical segmentation
The increase in its business segment of income derived from Asia, about 2% less than that in the second quarter of 2007, is an expected trend of the above stated market situation. There is an increase in the market segment in Europe in the third quarter. The negative effect on the slight increase in such geographical segment sales has increased the selling expense per dollar sales from $0.0062 to $0.01102, representing an increase in selling and marketing cost that reflected the resources that the Group put in overseas market expansion.
FUTURE PLAN
The management put in much effort on overseas marketing and promotion in 2007, such as Europe and United States. The Company has been successfully negotiated for being one of the designated suppliers of certain textile material for the manufacturers of ‘Adidas’ brand shirts. It will be a sign of quality of our products. It shows that our products are above standards. We expect a steady growth in this newly-developed market in 2007. In fact, a continuous increased in net profit margin is resulted from 8.2% in second quarter to 9.4% in the third quarter of 2007.
The management is of the view that while maintaining the current product mix with the current market that provides a stable income for the Group, it is also important for the Group to plan for new product lines targeting for a higher margin that will contribute more profit and diversified grade of products to the Group, which would then mitigate risk of any intensive competition of current product lines of the Company that may cause downward trend to the margin to the Company in the future.
FINANCIAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
The inventory turnover for the nine months period ended 2007 is 22 days, the turnover period is shortened by 35 days when compared to 67 days for the nine months period ended 2006. The high ratio of inventory turnover represent that the Company has a healthy inventory level and strong sales.
The accounts receivables turnover is lengthened by 77 days from 73 days for the nine months period ended September 30, 2006 to 150 days for the nine months period ended September 30, 2007. The increase in the receivable period is due to longer credit sales for the new product lines and a reclassification adjustment is made in the third quarter, account receivable has been accounted in other account receivables. We reclassified it and reflected the true picture of the Group.
The accounts payable turnover for the nine months period ended 2007 is 47 days, the accounts payable turnover is shortened by 34 days when compared to 81 days for the nine months period ended 2006. The shorter of the accounts payable turnover day is due to the new supplier for the new line products giving a shorter credit day for the Company.
Even though the Group has got a 34 days decrease in the payables repayment period in the nine months period ended September 30, 2007, when compared to the nine months period ended September 30, 2006, there is no doubt that the Group has sufficient money for to repay the debts.
The debt to assets ratio represents the debt repayment ability of the Group. The debts to assets ratio of the Group is 57.37% for the nine month period ended 2007 and the total liabilities decreased by about $17.8 million for the first nine months of 2007, it was primarily due to a decrease in notes payables at the nine months ended September 30, 2007. The notes payable is decreased by 47.2% when compare to the amount as at December 31, 2006. It is due to the contribution of the new product line.
The Group’ s business policy of market expansion with prudent evaluation is supported by our principal bankers whom have granted over $6 Million of short term loans that finance the operating of the Company. All such short term loans are at an interest rate lower than the gross margin. The interest rate is not more than 9%. The proceeds from short term bank loan and $2,165,950 decrease in restricted cash is sufficient to repay the over 21% of note payable of $10,242,631 for 2007. There are sufficient funds from finance activities, there is sufficient money to support the market expansion and the investing activities.
The Management would continue look for any good business opportunities that would further leverage the current financial strength and the management advantages of the Group to further foster the business and enhancing the return to our shareholders with a well-balance risk-and-reward business policy.
