1 | ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES | |
Sino Gas International Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Utah on August 19, 1983 as Evica Resources, Inc. The Company changed its name to American Arms, Inc. on April 5, 1984, and then changed its name to Dolce Ventures, Inc. on May 21, 2002, and ultimately changed its name to Sino Gas International Holdings, Inc. on November 17, 2006. | ||
On September 7, 2006, the Company underwent a reverse-merger with Gas Investment China Co., Ltd. (“Gas (BVI)”), an International Business Company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands, and its wholly owned subsidiary Beijing Zhong Ran Weiye Gas Co., Ltd. (“Beijing Gas”), involving an exchange of shares whereby the Company issued an aggregate of 14,361,646 shares to the shareholders of Gas (BVI) in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Gas (BVI). For financial reporting purposes, this transaction is classified as a recapitalization of Sino Gas International Holdings, Inc. (Legal acquirer, accounting acquiree) and the historical financial statements of Gas Investment China Co. Ltd. (Legal acquiree, accounting acquirer) | ||
The Company’s primary business operations are conducted through Beijing Gas. Beijing Gas is a natural gas services operator, principally engaging in the investment, operation, and management of city gas pipeline infrastructure, in the distribution of natural gas to residential and industrial users, in the construction and operation gas stations, and in the development and application of natural gas related technologies. Beijing Gas develops its operating subsidiaries, known as project companies. Each project company operates as a local natural gas distributor in a city or county. Pursuant to an exclusive franchise agreement with the local government or entities responsible for administering and/or regulating gas utilities, each project company is granted the exclusive right to develop and operate natural gas distribution systems and distribute natural gas at the operational location. | ||
Beijing Gas holds an equity interest of 95% to 100% in its subsidiaries, and an individual shareholder nominally holds the remainder of the equity interest in such project companies. Each such individual shareholder has relinquished any and all rights, power and interest to Beijing Gas in the respective project companies under enforceable contracts. This structure was intended to comply with a PRC law that required a limited liability company to have at least two shareholders. | ||
The Company owns and operates natural gas distribution systems in 34 small and medium size cities serving approximately 293,758 residential and seven industrial customers. The Company’s facilities include approximately 2,039 kilometers of pipeline and delivery networks (including delivery trucks) with a daily capacity of approximately 156,000 cubic meters of natural gas. | ||
The common stock of the Company is currently quoted on the National Association of Securities Dealers' Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol “SGAS”. | ||
Basis of Presentation and Organization | ||
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). | ||
This basis of accounting differs in certain material respects from that used for the preparation of the books of account of the Company’s principal subsidiaries, which are prepared in accordance with the accounting principles and the relevant financial regulations applicable to enterprises with limited liabilities established in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) or in the accounting standards used in the places of their domicile. The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect necessary adjustments not recorded in the books of account of the Company’s subsidiaries to present them in conformity with US GAAP. | ||

Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
2 | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | |||||||||||||||
(a) | Method of Accounting | |||||||||||||||
The Company maintains its general ledger and journals with the accrual method of accounting for financial reporting purposes. The financial statements and notes are representations of management. Accounting policies adopted by the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the presentation of financial statements. | ||||||||||||||||
(b) | Use of estimates | |||||||||||||||
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however, actual results could differ materially from those estimates. | ||||||||||||||||
(c) | Economic and political risks | |||||||||||||||
The Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’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 Company’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 Company’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 law and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things. | ||||||||||||||||
(d) | Principles of Consolidation | |||||||||||||||
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group”). Significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in which the company has a 20 percent to 50 percent voting interest and where the company exercises significant influence over the investor are accounted for using the equity method. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company owned its subsidiaries after inception and continued to acquire equity interests throughout the reporting periods. The following table depicts the identities of the consolidating subsidiaries as of September 30, 2014: | ||||||||||||||||

(e) | Cash and Cash Equivalents | |||||||||||||||
The Company considers all cash and other highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. | ||||||||||||||||
(f) | Accounts Receivable | |||||||||||||||
Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value consisting of the carrying amount less an allowance for uncollectible accounts, as needed. The Company extends unsecured credit to customers in the normal course of business and does not accrue interest on trade accounts receivable. | ||||||||||||||||
(g) | Advances to Suppliers | |||||||||||||||
Advances to suppliers represent the cash paid in advance for purchasing raw materials. The advances to suppliers are interest free and unsecured. | ||||||||||||||||
(h) | Investments in Equity Securities | |||||||||||||||
The equity method of accounting was used to account for the Company’s investment in equity securities for which the Company did not have controlling equity interest. A non-controlling equity interest for the Company is typically a position of less than 50% beneficial ownership. | ||||||||||||||||
The consolidated statement of income includes the Company’s share of the post-acquisition results of the investment’s performance for the year. In the consolidated balance sheet, investments in equity securities are stated at the Company’s share of the net assets of the investments plus any potential premium, or less discounts paid at the time of acquisition, and less any identified impairment loss. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company did not record any goodwill when it acquired its equity positions in Xiangke Oil Gas and Qujing Gas. Accordingly, in accordance with SFAS 142, the Company has not taken an amortization expense of goodwill during the time it has carried stakes in their equity securities. | ||||||||||||||||
(i) | Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | |||||||||||||||
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”), ASC 360-10-35. The Company evaluates its long lived assets for impairment when indicators of impairment are present or annually, whichever occurs sooner. In the event that there are indications of impairment, the Company will record a loss to statements of income equal to the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the long lived asset. The Company typically, but not exclusively, uses the expected future discounted flows method to determine fair value of long lived asset subject to impairment. The fair value of long lived assets held for disposition will include the cost of disposal. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company’s long-lived assets are grouped by their presentation on the consolidated balance sheets, and further segregated by their operating and asset type. Long-lived assets subject to impairment include buildings, equipment, vehicles, accounting software licenses, franchise, and land use rights. The Company makes its determinations based on various factors that impact those assets. | ||||||||||||||||
At September 30, 2014, the Company assessed its buildings, equipment, vehicles, accounting software licenses, franchise and land use rights for production and has concluded its long-lived assets have no impairment losses for the period then ended. | ||||||||||||||||
(j) | Property, Plant and Equipment | |||||||||||||||
Property, plant and equipment, other than construction in progress, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss. Depreciation is provided over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of the property, plant and equipment are as follows: | ||||||||||||||||
Assets Class | Estimated Useful Life | |||||||||||||||
Gas Pipelines (Up to December 31, 2007) | 25 years | |||||||||||||||
Gas Pipelines (Starting from January 1, 2008) | 50 years | |||||||||||||||
Buildings | 25 years | |||||||||||||||
Leasehold Improvements | 25 years | |||||||||||||||
Machinery & Equipment | 20 years | |||||||||||||||
Motor Vehicles | 10 years | |||||||||||||||
Office Equipment | 8 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. | ||||||||||||||||
(k) | Intangible Assets | |||||||||||||||
Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment loss. Amortization is provided over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of the intangibles are as follows: | ||||||||||||||||
Asset Class | Estimated Useful Life | |||||||||||||||
Land use rights | 20 - 50 years | |||||||||||||||
Franchises | 30 years | |||||||||||||||
Accounting software | 3 years | |||||||||||||||
(l) | Goodwill | |||||||||||||||
Goodwill impairment tests are performed annually and more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate goodwill carrying values exceed estimated reporting unit fair values. Upon indication that the carrying values of such assets may not be recoverable, the Company recognizes an impairment loss as a charge against current operations. | ||||||||||||||||
(m) | ||||||||||||||||
Construction in Progress | ||||||||||||||||
Construction in progress represents the cost of constructing pipelines and is stated at cost. Costs are comprised of direct and indirect incremental costs of acquisition or construction. Completed items are transferred from construction in progress to the gas pipelines of fixed assets when they are ready for their intended use. The major cost of construction relates to construction materials, direct labor wages, and other overhead. Construction of pipeline, through which to distribute natural gas, is one of the Group’s principal businesses. The Group builds city main pipeline networks and branch pipeline networks to make gas connection to residential users, industrial and commercial users, with the objective of generating revenue on gas connection and gas usage fees collected from these customers. These projects, once completed, will significantly increase the gas supply capacity. | ||||||||||||||||
(n) | Unearned Revenue | |||||||||||||||
Unearned revenue represents prepayments by customers for gas purchases and advance payments on construction and installation of pipeline contracts. The Company records such prepayments as unearned revenue when the payments are received. | ||||||||||||||||
(o) | Financial Instruments | |||||||||||||||
The Company adopted ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. | ||||||||||||||||
ASC 820-10 includes a fair value hierarchy that is intended to increase the consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures. The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources while unobservable inputs reflect a reporting entity’s pricing an asset or liability based upon their own market assumptions. The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels: | ||||||||||||||||
Level 1 – inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. | ||||||||||||||||
Level 2 – observable inputs other than level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. | ||||||||||||||||
Level 3 – instrument valuations are obtained without observable market values and require a high-level of judgment to determine the fair value. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company’s financial instruments consist mainly of cash, bank notes receivable, and debt obligations. Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans and similar terms and average maturities, the fair value of debt obligations also approximates its carrying value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. While the Company believes its valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. | ||||||||||||||||
The following tables present the Company’s financial assets and liabilities at fair value in accordance with ASC 820-10: | ||||||||||||||||

Foreign Currency Translation | ||||||||||||||||
The accompanying financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The functional currency of the Company is the Renminbi (“RMB”). The 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. | ||||||||||||||||

Years end RMB : US$ exchange rate | 6.156 | 6.114 | ||||||||||||||
Average yearly RMB : US$ exchange rate | 6.1502 | 6.1982 | ||||||||||||||
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 | |||||||||||||||
The Company has two sources of revenue: (a) sales of natural gas and (b) connection fees for constructing connections to the natural gas distribution network. In accordance with FASB ASC 605-10, the Company recognizes gas distribution revenue when natural gas is rendered to customers, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Connection fees are recognized when the outcome of a contract can be estimated reliably and the stage of completion at the balance sheet date can be measured reliably. | ||||||||||||||||
Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue. | ||||||||||||||||
(r) | Cost of Revenue | |||||||||||||||
The cost for distribution of natural gas is comprised of raw materials, delivery cost, and other overhead. The cost of connection fees consists of construction materials, direct labor wages, and other overhead. | ||||||||||||||||
(s) | Investment Income | |||||||||||||||
Investment income represents the Company’s share of post-acquisition results of its investment in equity securities for the year. | ||||||||||||||||
(t) | Income Taxes | |||||||||||||||
The Company uses the accrual method of accounting to determine and report its taxable reduction of income taxes for the year in which they are available. The Company has implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Income tax liabilities computed according to the United States, and People’s Republic of China tax laws are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes primarily related to differences between the basis of fixed assets and intangible assets for financial and tax reporting. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will be either taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes also are recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future income taxes. A valuation allowance is created to evaluate deferred tax assets, whether it is more likely than not that these items will expire either before the Company is able to realize that tax benefit, or that future realization is uncertain. | ||||||||||||||||
In respect of the Company’s subsidiaries domiciled and operated in China and British Virgin Islands, the taxation of these entities is summarized below:- | ||||||||||||||||
⋅ | All of the operating companies are located in the PRC; GAS Investment China Co., Ltd., Sino Gas Construction, Ltd., and Sino Gas Investment Development, Ltd. are located in the British Virgin Islands; and Tongyuan International Holdings Limited is located in Hong Kong. All of these entities are subject to the relevant tax laws and regulations of the PRC, Hong Kong, and the British Virgin Islands in which the related entities are domiciled. The maximum tax rates of the subsidiaries pursuant to the countries in which they are domiciled are: | |||||||||||||||
Subsidiary | Country of Domicile | Income Tax Rate | ||||||||||||||
PRC Operating Companies (per Note 2. (d) Principals of Consolidation) | PRC | 25 | % | |||||||||||||
i. | Gas Investment China Co., Ltd. | BVI | 0 | % | ||||||||||||
ii. | Sino Gas Construction, Ltd. | BVI | 0 | % | ||||||||||||
iii. | Sino Gas Investment Development, Ltd. | BVI | 0 | % | ||||||||||||
iv. | Tongyuan International Holdings Limited | Hong Kong | 16.5 | % | ||||||||||||
· | Effective January 1, 2008, the PRC government implemented a new 25% tax rate for all enterprises regardless of whether it was a domestic or foreign enterprise, without any tax holiday, which is defined as "two-year exemption followed by three-year half exemption" hitherto enjoyed by tax payers. As a result of the new tax law, the standard 15% tax rate preference terminated as of December 31, 2007. However, the PRC government has established a set of transition rules to allow enterprises that utilized the tax holidays prior to January 1, 2008 to continue utilizing the tax preference. | |||||||||||||||
· | Since Sino Gas International Holdings, Inc. is primarily a holding company without any business activities in the United States, the Company shall not be subject to United States income tax for nine months ended September 30, 2014. | |||||||||||||||
(u) | Advertising | |||||||||||||||
The Company expensed all advertising costs as incurred. | ||||||||||||||||
(v) | Risk | |||||||||||||||
· | Concentration of Credit Risk | |||||||||||||||
Concentration of credit risk is limited to accounts receivable and is subject to the financial conditions of major customers. The Company does not require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. The Company conducts periodic reviews of its clients’ financial condition and customers’ payment practices to minimize collection risk on accounts receivable. | ||||||||||||||||
· | Environmental risks | |||||||||||||||
The Company has procured environmental licenses required by the PRC government. The Company has both a water treatment facility for water used in its production process and secure transportation to remove waste off site. In the event of an accident, the Company has purchased insurance to cover potential harm to employees, equipment, and the local environment. | ||||||||||||||||
· | Inflation Risk | |||||||||||||||
Management monitors changes in prices levels. Historically inflation has not materially impacted the Company’s financial statements; however, significant increases in the price of raw materials and labor that cannot be passed on to the Company’s customers could adversely impact the Company’s results of operations. | ||||||||||||||||
· | Economic and Political Risks | |||||||||||||||
The Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations may be influenced by changes in the political, economic, and legal environments in the PRC. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company’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 Company’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. | ||||||||||||||||
(w) | Statutory Reserves | |||||||||||||||
As stipulated by the Company Law of the People's Republic of China as applicable to Chinese companies with foreign ownership, net income after taxation can only be distributed as dividends after appropriation has been made for the following: | ||||||||||||||||
i. | Making up cumulative prior years’ losses, if any; | |||||||||||||||
ii. | Allocations to the “Statutory reserve” of at least 10% of income after tax, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, until the fund amounts to 50% of the Company's registered capital; | |||||||||||||||
iii. | Allocations to the discretionary surplus reserve, if approved in the shareholders’ general meeting. | |||||||||||||||
(x) | 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 Company’s current component of other comprehensive income is the foreign currency translation adjustment. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company uses FASB ASC Topic 220, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”. Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to the statements of stockholders’ equity, except the changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders due to investments by stockholders. Comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 included net income and foreign currency translation adjustments. | ||||||||||||||||
(y) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |||||||||||||||
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360) - Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” Some stakeholders told the Board that too many disposals of small groups of assets that are recurring in nature qualify for discontinued operations presentation under Subtopic 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements—Discontinued Operations. That results in financial statements that are less decision useful for users. Other stakeholders noted that some of the guidance on reporting discontinued operations results in higher costs for preparers because it can be complex and difficult to apply. The amendments in this Update address those issues by changing the criteria for reporting discontinued operations and enhancing convergence of the FASB’s and the International Accounting Standard Board’s (IASB) reporting requirements for discontinued operations. The amendment should apply to all disposals (or classifications as held for sale) of components of an entity that occur within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those years. | ||||||||||||||||
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.” Entities commonly issue share-based payment awards that require a specific performance target to be achieved in order for employees to become eligible to vest in the awards. Examples of performance targets include an entity attaining a specified profitability metric or selling shares in an initial public offering. Generally, an award with a performance target also requires an employee to render service until the performance target is achieved. In some cases, however, the terms of an award may provide that the performance target could be achieved after an employee completes the requisite service period. That is, the employee would be eligible to vest in the award regardless of whether the employee is rendering service on the date the performance target is achieved. | ||||||||||||||||
Current U.S. generally accepted accounting principles do not contain explicit guidance on how to account for those share-based payments. Many reporting entities account for performance targets that could be achieved after the requisite service period as performance conditions that affect the vesting of the award and, therefore, do not reflect the performance target in the estimate of the grant-date fair value of the award. Other reporting entities treat those performance targets as nonvesting conditions that affect the grant-date fair value of the award. This Update is intended to resolve the diverse accounting treatment of those awards in practice. | ||||||||||||||||
For all entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. | ||||||||||||||||
As of September 30, 2014, there are no other recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted that would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. | ||||||||||||||||
(z) | Earnings per Share | |||||||||||||||
The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with FASB ASC 260 “Earnings per share”. SFAS No. 128 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the income or loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., contingent shares, convertible securities, options, and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS. | ||||||||||||||||
(aa) | Subsequent Events | |||||||||||||||
The Company evaluates subsequent events that have occurred after the consolidated balance sheet date but before the consolidated financial statements are issued. There are two types of subsequent events: (1) recognized, or those that provide additional evidence with respect to conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing financial statements, and (2) non-recognized, or those that provide evidence with respect to conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose subsequent to that date. The Company has identified no subsequent events that would require disclosure to the consolidated financial statements. | ||||||||||||||||

For natural gas sales, revenue is due when the gas is sold. Most residential customers settle their accounts via prepayments with debit cards, while industrial customers are billed and pay according to the contract terms ranging from 10 days to one month. | ||||||||
For construction projects, connection fees are generally collected in installments. First deposits of 30% of the total contract sum are received from the client when the project commences. A second payment of 30% is received at a milestone set out in the contracts. A third payment of 30% is received after construction is completed. The remaining 10% is typically held back by the client and acts as a warranty on the quality of the project. The retained money is usually received by the company after the 1 year warranty period. | ||||||||
The Company believes it has provided adequate provisions for doubtful accounts. Doubtful allowance accounts at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were approximately 1% of gross account receivables. To collect on doubtful accounts, the Company uses all of its efforts, such as having internal staff call for payment, filing legal pledges, or even hiring collection agents to collect the outstanding balance. If the collection is no longer probable, the Company will write off the balance against the allowance for doubtful accounts. | ||||||||
The Company has not experienced any material delinquent accounts that were uncollectible and has not written off a material balance against the allowance for doubtful accounts. | ||||||||

As of September 30, 2014, the Company’s related party receivable is $2,347,324, of which the $216,374 (RMB 1,332,000) is due from the Company’s founder and CEO Mr. Liu Yuchuan’s wife, Fengjun Lu. The Company borrowed $3,248,863 (RMB 20,000,000) from China Development Bank. The loan was secured by the Mrs. Liu’s personal home property, which carried a $327,485 (RMB 2,016,000) mortgage. Because the Bank required the mortgage loan to be settled before it would collateralize on it, the Company paid the entire mortgage on behalf of the CEO. This payment was interest free. | ||

The Company has contracted with customers usually in two revenue segments, one is for the construction and installation of gas facilities and the other is for the subsequent sales of natural gas to the customers through the gas facilities the Company constructs. However, construction and installation contracts and gas supply contracts have different terms for the basis of revenue recognition and differ from one another in terms of the relevant cost-and-revenue to be recognized and hence separate calculations and subsequent payments of fees for each segment occur without any interdependence on one another. | ||||||||||||||
For management purposes, the company is currently organized into two major operating divisions: (a) sales of natural gas and (b) installation of gas facilities/construction. These principal operating activities are the basis on which the Company reports its primary segment information. | ||||||||||||||

Sep. 30, 2014 | ||||||||||||||||
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | ' | |||||||||||||||
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(a) | Method of Accounting | |||||||||||||||
The Company maintains its general ledger and journals with the accrual method of accounting for financial reporting purposes. The financial statements and notes are representations of management. Accounting policies adopted by the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the presentation of financial statements. | ||||||||||||||||
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(b) | Use of estimates | |||||||||||||||
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however, actual results could differ materially from those estimates. | ||||||||||||||||
Economic and Political Risks [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(c) | Economic and political risks | |||||||||||||||
The Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’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 Company’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 Company’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 law and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things. | ||||||||||||||||
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(d) | Principles of Consolidation | |||||||||||||||
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group”). Significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in which the company has a 20 percent to 50 percent voting interest and where the company exercises significant influence over the investor are accounted for using the equity method. | ||||||||||||||||

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(e) | Cash and Cash Equivalents | |||||||||||||||
The Company considers all cash and other highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. | ||||||||||||||||
Trade and Other Accounts Receivable, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(f) | Accounts Receivable | |||||||||||||||
Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value consisting of the carrying amount less an allowance for uncollectible accounts, as needed. The Company extends unsecured credit to customers in the normal course of business and does not accrue interest on trade accounts receivable. | ||||||||||||||||
Advances To Suppliers [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(g) | Advances to Suppliers | |||||||||||||||
Advances to suppliers represent the cash paid in advance for purchasing raw materials. The advances to suppliers are interest free and unsecured. | ||||||||||||||||
Investment, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(h) | Investments in Equity Securities | |||||||||||||||
The equity method of accounting was used to account for the Company’s investment in equity securities for which the Company did not have controlling equity interest. A non-controlling equity interest for the Company is typically a position of less than 50% beneficial ownership. | ||||||||||||||||
The consolidated statement of income includes the Company’s share of the post-acquisition results of the investment’s performance for the year. In the consolidated balance sheet, investments in equity securities are stated at the Company’s share of the net assets of the investments plus any potential premium, or less discounts paid at the time of acquisition, and less any identified impairment loss. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company did not record any goodwill when it acquired its equity positions in Xiangke Oil Gas and Qujing Gas. Accordingly, in accordance with SFAS 142, the Company has not taken an amortization expense of goodwill during the time it has carried stakes in their equity securities. | ||||||||||||||||
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(i) | Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | |||||||||||||||
The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”), ASC 360-10-35. The Company evaluates its long lived assets for impairment when indicators of impairment are present or annually, whichever occurs sooner. In the event that there are indications of impairment, the Company will record a loss to statements of income equal to the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the long lived asset. The Company typically, but not exclusively, uses the expected future discounted flows method to determine fair value of long lived asset subject to impairment. The fair value of long lived assets held for disposition will include the cost of disposal. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company’s long-lived assets are grouped by their presentation on the consolidated balance sheets, and further segregated by their operating and asset type. Long-lived assets subject to impairment include buildings, equipment, vehicles, accounting software licenses, franchise, and land use rights. The Company makes its determinations based on various factors that impact those assets. | ||||||||||||||||
At September 30, 2014, the Company assessed its buildings, equipment, vehicles, accounting software licenses, franchise and land use rights for production and has concluded its long-lived assets have no impairment losses for the period then ended. | ||||||||||||||||
Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(j) | Property, Plant and Equipment | |||||||||||||||
Property, plant and equipment, other than construction in progress, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss. Depreciation is provided over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of the property, plant and equipment are as follows: | ||||||||||||||||
Assets Class | Estimated Useful Life | |||||||||||||||
Gas Pipelines (Up to December 31, 2007) | 25 years | |||||||||||||||
Gas Pipelines (Starting from January 1, 2008) | 50 years | |||||||||||||||
Buildings | 25 years | |||||||||||||||
Leasehold Improvements | 25 years | |||||||||||||||
Machinery & Equipment | 20 years | |||||||||||||||
Motor Vehicles | 10 years | |||||||||||||||
Office Equipment | 8 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. | ||||||||||||||||
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(k) | Intangible Assets | |||||||||||||||
Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment loss. Amortization is provided over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of the intangibles are as follows: | ||||||||||||||||
Asset Class | Estimated Useful Life | |||||||||||||||
Land use rights | 20 - 50 years | |||||||||||||||
Franchises | 30 years | |||||||||||||||
Accounting software | 3 years | |||||||||||||||
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Goodwill, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(l) | Goodwill | |||||||||||||||
Goodwill impairment tests are performed annually and more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate goodwill carrying values exceed estimated reporting unit fair values. Upon indication that the carrying values of such assets may not be recoverable, the Company recognizes an impairment loss as a charge against current operations. | ||||||||||||||||
Construction In Progress [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(m) | Construction in Progress | |||||||||||||||
Construction in progress represents the cost of constructing pipelines and is stated at cost. Costs are comprised of direct and indirect incremental costs of acquisition or construction. Completed items are transferred from construction in progress to the gas pipelines of fixed assets when they are ready for their intended use. The major cost of construction relates to construction materials, direct labor wages, and other overhead. Construction of pipeline, through which to distribute natural gas, is one of the Group’s principal businesses. The Group builds city main pipeline networks and branch pipeline networks to make gas connection to residential users, industrial and commercial users, with the objective of generating revenue on gas connection and gas usage fees collected from these customers. These projects, once completed, will significantly increase the gas supply capacity. | ||||||||||||||||
Unearned Revenue [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(n) | Unearned Revenue | |||||||||||||||
Unearned revenue represents prepayments by customers for gas purchases and advance payments on construction and installation of pipeline contracts. The Company records such prepayments as unearned revenue when the payments are received. | ||||||||||||||||
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(o) | Financial Instruments | |||||||||||||||
The Company adopted ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. | ||||||||||||||||
ASC 820-10 includes a fair value hierarchy that is intended to increase the consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures. The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources while unobservable inputs reflect a reporting entity’s pricing an asset or liability based upon their own market assumptions. The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels: | ||||||||||||||||
Level 1 – inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. | ||||||||||||||||
Level 2 – observable inputs other than level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. | ||||||||||||||||
Level 3 – instrument valuations are obtained without observable market values and require a high-level of judgment to determine the fair value. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company’s financial instruments consist mainly of cash, bank notes receivable, and debt obligations. Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans and similar terms and average maturities, the fair value of debt obligations also approximates its carrying value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. While the Company believes its valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. | ||||||||||||||||
The following tables present the Company’s financial assets and liabilities at fair value in accordance with ASC 820-10: | ||||||||||||||||

Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(q) | Revenue Recognition | |||||||||||||||
The Company has two sources of revenue: (a) sales of natural gas and (b) connection fees for constructing connections to the natural gas distribution network. In accordance with FASB ASC 605-10, the Company recognizes gas distribution revenue when natural gas is rendered to customers, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Connection fees are recognized when the outcome of a contract can be estimated reliably and the stage of completion at the balance sheet date can be measured reliably. | ||||||||||||||||
Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue. | ||||||||||||||||
Cost Of Revenue [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||

Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(t) | Income Taxes | |||||||||||||||
The Company uses the accrual method of accounting to determine and report its taxable reduction of income taxes for the year in which they are available. The Company has implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Income tax liabilities computed according to the United States, and People’s Republic of China tax laws are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes primarily related to differences between the basis of fixed assets and intangible assets for financial and tax reporting. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will be either taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes also are recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future income taxes. A valuation allowance is created to evaluate deferred tax assets, whether it is more likely than not that these items will expire either before the Company is able to realize that tax benefit, or that future realization is uncertain. | ||||||||||||||||
In respect of the Company’s subsidiaries domiciled and operated in China and British Virgin Islands, the taxation of these entities is summarized below:- | ||||||||||||||||
⋅ | All of the operating companies are located in the PRC; GAS Investment China Co., Ltd., Sino Gas Construction, Ltd., and Sino Gas Investment Development, Ltd. are located in the British Virgin Islands; and Tongyuan International Holdings Limited is located in Hong Kong. All of these entities are subject to the relevant tax laws and regulations of the PRC, Hong Kong, and the British Virgin Islands in which the related entities are domiciled. The maximum tax rates of the subsidiaries pursuant to the countries in which they are domiciled are: | |||||||||||||||
Subsidiary | Country of Domicile | Income Tax Rate | ||||||||||||||

· | Effective January 1, 2008, the PRC government implemented a new 25% tax rate for all enterprises regardless of whether it was a domestic or foreign enterprise, without any tax holiday, which is defined as "two-year exemption followed by three-year half exemption" hitherto enjoyed by tax payers. As a result of the new tax law, the standard 15% tax rate preference terminated as of December 31, 2007. However, the PRC government has established a set of transition rules to allow enterprises that utilized the tax holidays prior to January 1, 2008 to continue utilizing the tax preference. | |||||||||||||||
· | Since Sino Gas International Holdings, Inc. is primarily a holding company without any business activities in the United States, the Company shall not be subject to United States income tax for nine months ended September 30, 2014. | |||||||||||||||

(v) | Risk | |||||||||||||||
· | Concentration of Credit Risk | |||||||||||||||
Concentration of credit risk is limited to accounts receivable and is subject to the financial conditions of major customers. The Company does not require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. The Company conducts periodic reviews of its clients’ financial condition and customers’ payment practices to minimize collection risk on accounts receivable. | ||||||||||||||||
· | Environmental risks | |||||||||||||||
The Company has procured environmental licenses required by the PRC government. The Company has both a water treatment facility for water used in its production process and secure transportation to remove waste off site. In the event of an accident, the Company has purchased insurance to cover potential harm to employees, equipment, and the local environment. | ||||||||||||||||
· | Inflation Risk | |||||||||||||||
Management monitors changes in prices levels. Historically inflation has not materially impacted the Company’s financial statements; however, significant increases in the price of raw materials and labor that cannot be passed on to the Company’s customers could adversely impact the Company’s results of operations. | ||||||||||||||||
· | Economic and Political Risks | |||||||||||||||
The Company’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations may be influenced by changes in the political, economic, and legal environments in the PRC. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company’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 Company’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. | ||||||||||||||||

i. | Making up cumulative prior years’ losses, if any; | |||||||||||||||
ii. | Allocations to the “Statutory reserve” of at least 10% of income after tax, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, until the fund amounts to 50% of the Company's registered capital; | |||||||||||||||
iii. | Allocations to the discretionary surplus reserve, if approved in the shareholders’ general meeting. | |||||||||||||||
Comprehensive Income, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(x) | 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 Company’s current component of other comprehensive income is the foreign currency translation adjustment. | ||||||||||||||||
The Company uses FASB ASC Topic 220, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”. Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to the statements of stockholders’ equity, except the changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders due to investments by stockholders. Comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 included net income and foreign currency translation adjustments. | ||||||||||||||||
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(y) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |||||||||||||||
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360) - Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity.” Some stakeholders told the Board that too many disposals of small groups of assets that are recurring in nature qualify for discontinued operations presentation under Subtopic 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements—Discontinued Operations. That results in financial statements that are less decision useful for users. Other stakeholders noted that some of the guidance on reporting discontinued operations results in higher costs for preparers because it can be complex and difficult to apply. The amendments in this Update address those issues by changing the criteria for reporting discontinued operations and enhancing convergence of the FASB’s and the International Accounting Standard Board’s (IASB) reporting requirements for discontinued operations. The amendment should apply to all disposals (or classifications as held for sale) of components of an entity that occur within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those years. | ||||||||||||||||
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.” Entities commonly issue share-based payment awards that require a specific performance target to be achieved in order for employees to become eligible to vest in the awards. Examples of performance targets include an entity attaining a specified profitability metric or selling shares in an initial public offering. Generally, an award with a performance target also requires an employee to render service until the performance target is achieved. In some cases, however, the terms of an award may provide that the performance target could be achieved after an employee completes the requisite service period. That is, the employee would be eligible to vest in the award regardless of whether the employee is rendering service on the date the performance target is achieved. | ||||||||||||||||
Current U.S. generally accepted accounting principles do not contain explicit guidance on how to account for those share-based payments. Many reporting entities account for performance targets that could be achieved after the requisite service period as performance conditions that affect the vesting of the award and, therefore, do not reflect the performance target in the estimate of the grant-date fair value of the award. Other reporting entities treat those performance targets as nonvesting conditions that affect the grant-date fair value of the award. This Update is intended to resolve the diverse accounting treatment of those awards in practice. | ||||||||||||||||
For all entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. | ||||||||||||||||
As of September 30, 2014, there are no other recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted that would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. | ||||||||||||||||
Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(z) | Earnings per Share | |||||||||||||||
The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS”) in accordance with FASB ASC 260 “Earnings per share”. SFAS No. 128 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the income or loss available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., contingent shares, convertible securities, options, and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS. | ||||||||||||||||
Subsequent Events, Policy [Policy Text Block] | ' | |||||||||||||||
(aa) | Subsequent Events | |||||||||||||||
The Company evaluates subsequent events that have occurred after the consolidated balance sheet date but before the consolidated financial statements are issued. There are two types of subsequent events: (1) recognized, or those that provide additional evidence with respect to conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet, including the estimates inherent in the process of preparing financial statements, and (2) non-recognized, or those that provide evidence with respect to conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose subsequent to that date. The Company has identified no subsequent events that would require disclosure to the consolidated financial statements. | ||||||||||||||||

The Guarantor guaranteed to the Banks the entire principal and accrued interest. The Company pledged all of Beijing Gas’s subsidiaries and deposited $1,028,464 (RMB 6,800,000), which was classified as non-current asset deposits, with the Guarantor, and was required to pay 2% of the outstanding loans as a financial service fee to the Guarantor per annum.
