Notes To Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For The Three Months Ended June 30, 2011 And 2010
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements of AgriSolar Solutions, Inc. at June 30, 2011 and 2010 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements, instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2011. In management's opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation to make our financial statements not misleading have been included. The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The March 31, 2011 balance sheet has been derived from the Company’s audited financial statements included in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2011.
Note 2. Organization and Business Background
AgriSolar Solutions, Inc. (“We” “Us” “Our” “AGSO” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Colorado on March 13, 2006. On January 8, 2010, we changed our name from “V2K International, Inc.” to our current name.
We are principally engaged in the design, manufacture, distribution and sales of solar energy saving, insect killer and plastic products in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) and overseas.
On January 8, 2010, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with Fuwaysun Technology, Ltd (“FTUS”). Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, we agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock in FTUS, in exchange for the issuance of an aggregate of up to 58,055,000 shares of our common stock to the shareholders of FTUS, thereby causing FTUS to become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Share Exchange”). As a result of the Share Exchange, the former shareholders of FTUS own 99.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company. In connection with the Share Exchange, all of the Company’s former directors and officers resigned from their positions and we appointed a new chairman of the Board of Director and Chief Executive Officer.
The Share Exchange has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization of AGSO whereby FTUS is deemed to be the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and AGSO to be the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer). The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are in substance those of FTUS, with the assets and liabilities, and revenues and expenses, of AGSO being included effective from the date of stock exchange transaction. AGSO is deemed to be a continuation of the business and operations of FTUS.
AGSO and its subsidiaries and variable interest entity (“VIE”) are hereinafter collectively referred to as (“the Company”).
Note3. Going Concern Uncertainties
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, we experienced negative cash flows from operations of $1,002,799 with an accumulated deficit of $1,306,147 as of that date. Our continuation as a going concern through June 30, 2012 is dependent upon the collections of our accounts receivable, continuing financial support from our stockholders, and credit facilities. We are currently pursuing additional financing for our operations. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain the operations.
These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that may result in our not being able to continue as a going concern.

Note 4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of estimates
In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Product warranty and post service support
We generally offer product warranty and post-contract customer support (“PCS”) to its customers for a period of two to seven years, free of charge. We periodically assess the adequacy of our recorded warranty liabilities and adjust the amounts as necessary. We recorded a reserve of $17,003 for sales returns for the three months ended June 30, 2011. We recorded no reserve for the three month period ended June 30, 2010.
Subsidy income
Subsidy income is received at a discretionary amount as determined by the local PRC government to subsidize the research and development activities. The amount is un-conditional, non-refundable and without any restrictions on usage at the time of grant to and receipt by the Company. Such grant is recognized as income when it is received from the local PRC government during the period.
Foreign currencies translation
Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations.
Our reporting currency is the United States Dollars (“US$”) and the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US$. In addition, our operating subsidiaries in Hong Kong and the PRC maintain their books and record in their respective local currencies, Hong Kong Dollars (“HK$”) and Renminbi Yuan (“RMB”), which is a functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which their operations are conducted.
In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830, “Translation of Financial Statement”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statements of stockholders’ equity.
Translation of amounts from the local currency of our subsidiaries into US$ has been made at the following exchange rates for the three month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:
| | | | |
| | 2011 | | 2010 |
Period-end rates HK$: US$1 exchange rate | | 7.7835 | | 7.7838 |
Period average rates HK$: US$1 exchange rate | | 7.7782 | | 7.7738 |
Period-end rates RMB: US$1 exchange rate | | 6.4640 | | 6.7886 |
Period average rates RMB: US$1 exchange rate | | 6.5074 | | 6.8023 |

Fair Value Measurement
ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” ("ASC 820"), provides a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, ASC 820 sets forth a definition of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs. ASC 820 defines the hierarchy as follows:
Level 1 - Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equities listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
Level 2 - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts or priced with models using highly observable inputs.
Level 3 - Significant inputs to pricing that are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial transmission rights.
Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, payables, line of credit, notes payable, and amounts due to a stockholder. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, payables, line of credit, notes payable, and amounts due to a stockholder approximate their fair value due to their short maturities.
Recent accounting pronouncements
We have reviewed all recently issued, but no yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoptions of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on our financial condition or the results of operations.
Note 5. Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period after consideration of the dilutive effect, if any, for common stock equivalents, including stock options, restricted stock, and other stock-based compensation. Earnings per common share are computed in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share” which requires companies to present basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and dilutive securities outstanding during the year.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:
| | | | | | |
| | 2011 | | 2010 |
Net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders | | $ | 363,476 | | $ | (38,961) |
Weighted average common shares outstanding – Basic | | | 63,755,057 | | | 59,180,046 |
Plus: incremental shares from assumed conversions | | | | | | |
- Convertible shares from preferred stock | | | 7,606,062 | | | - |
- Warrants to purchase common stock | | | 12,180,000 | | | - |
Weighted average common shares outstanding – Diluted | | | 83,541,119 | | | 59,180,046 |
| | | | | | |
Net income (loss) per share – Basic | | $ | 0.01 | | $ | (0.00) |
Net income (loss) per share – Diluted | | $ | 0.00 | | $ | (0.00) |
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, warrants exercisable for 2,957,703 shares of common stock were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as the exercise price of the warrants was higher than the average market price of the stock during the

year, thereby making the warrants anti-dilutive under the treasury method. There were no warrants included in the calculation for the three months ended June 30, 2010 as there was a loss for that period and including the warrants would be anti-dilutive.
Note 6. Accounts Receivable
The majority of our sales are on open credit terms and in accordance with terms specified in the contracts governing the relevant transactions. We evaluate the need of an allowance for doubtful accounts based on general provision that management believes to be uncollectible. If actual collections experience changes, revisions to the allowance may be required.
| | | | | | |
| June 30, | | March 31, |
| 2011 | | 2011 |
Accounts receivable, trade | | | | | |
- Billed | $ | 2,023,179 | | $ | 2,343,570 |
- Accrued | | 10,504,017 | | | 5,324,635 |
| | 12,527,196 | | | 7,668,205 |
Less: allowances for doubtful accounts and returns | | (431,347) | | | (103,130) |
Accounts receivable, net | $ | 12,095,849 | | $ | 7,565,075 |
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, we provided for an allowance for doubtful accounts of $307,341. In addition, we provided an allowance for returns of $17,003. For the year ended March 31, 2011, we provided for an allowance for doubtful accounts of $24,012 and wrote off accounts receivable of $162,012.
Accrued accounts receivable represents revenue from the products that are delivered to, received by and accepted by the customers prior to invoicing, and are presented on the balance sheets in the aggregate with accounts receivable. The accrual results from delays in completion of required documentation under the governmental procedures.
Up to August 15, 2011 we collected approximately $1,884,144 (15.6%) of the balance of the net accounts receivable and we billed approximately $1,131,857 (11%) of the accrued receivables.
Note7. Short-Term Borrowings
In September 2010, we obtained a short-term loan of $756,224 (equivalent to RMB 5,000,000) from a PRC financial institution, due September 2011, which was unsecured, carried interest at 115% of basic annual rate of the People’s Bank of China, payable monthly. The borrowing is personally guaranteed by an officer and director of the Company and a third party vendor of the Company.
The interest rate at June 30, 2011 was 7.2565% per annum and the effective interest rate for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was 7.2406% per annum.
Note 8. Related Party Transactions
Promissory Note
On December 10, 2009, we issued a promissory note (the “Note”) with a principal amount of $500,000, together with accrued interest in the amount of $100,000 due and payable on May 10, 2010, to a director of the Company. The Note is in default and accordingly interest is charged at 18% per annum until such time as the note is paid in full. In consideration for the Note, we agreed to issue a warrant to the director to purchase a total of 2,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share. These warrants were valued at $73,877 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: applicable risk-free interest rate of 1%; volatility factor of 79%; and the expected life of the warrants of 5 years. The relative fair value of the warrants of $73,877 was recorded as a debt discount. This debt discount was amortized over the term of the Note using the effective interest

method and we recognized $28,730 as a non-cash interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2010. No amortization was recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2011 as it was fully amortized prior to that period. Interest expense accrued and or paid was $28,275and $51,083 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The effective annual interest rate was 18% for the three months ended June 30, 2011. During the three month period ended June 30, 2011 we made payments of $100,000 which represented accrued interest.
Amount Due to a Stockholder
As of June 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011, the balance represented temporary advances made by one of our stockholders who is also a director of the Company. The advance is unsecured and interest-free. The stockholder has agreed that he will not request, seek or require repayment of any portion of the outstanding advance until such time as the current operations of the Company becomes profitable (as reflected by financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP) and the Company generated gross revenues of in excess of $30,000,000.
Note 9. Notes Payable
Promissory Note
On January 8, 2010, the Company issued a promissory note (the “Note”) with a principal amount of $150,000 in connection with a private purchase of the Company’s common stock. The Note is non-interest bearing and payable on January 8, 2011. Interest is charged at a default rate of 18% per annum when the entire principal is not repaid in full at the maturity date. The Note is in default and accordingly interest is charged at the default rate until such time as the Note is paid in full. Interest expense recognized for the Note was $3,440 for the three months ended June 30, 2011.
Convertible Notes Payable
On April 29, 2010, we entered into a Note Modification Agreement which agreed to reduce the outstanding balance from $160,000 to $150,000, reduced the interest rate to 6% per annum, fixed the conversion price at $0.125 per share and extended the due date to March 31, 2011.

Income (loss) before income taxes | $ | 482,781 | | $ | 134,706 |
The effective tax rate in the periods presented is the result of the mix of income earned in various tax jurisdictions that apply a broad range of income tax rates. The entities that operate in various countries: United States, Hong Kong and the PRC that are subject to taxes in the jurisdictions in which they operate, as follows:
United States of America
AGSO and FTUS are registered in the State of Colorado and are subject to the tax laws of the United States of America.
As of June 30, 2011, AGSO and FTUS incurred $1,853,202 of the aggregate net operating losses carryforwards available for federal tax purposes that may be used to offset future taxable income and will begin to expire in 2031, if unutilized. We have provided for a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets on the expected future tax benefits from the net operating losses carryforwards as the management believes it is more likely than not that these assets will not be realized in the future.
Hong Kong
Our operating subsidiary in Hong Kong is subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax at the statutory rate of 16.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 on the assessable income for its tax reporting years. As of June 30, 2011, $724,593 of cumulative operating losses carryforwards is available for income tax purposes at no expiration. We have provided for a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets on the expected future tax benefits from the net operating losses carryforwards as the management believes it is more likely than not that these assets will not be realized in the future.
The PRC
Our subsidiary and VIE, Forboss and Shenzhen Fuwaysun are subject to the Corporate Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China (the “New CIT Law”), at a unified income tax rate of 25%. However, for entities operating in special economic zones that previously enjoyed preferential tax rates, the applicable tax rate is increased progressively to 25% over a 5-years’ period under a transitional policy.
Shenzhen Fuwaysun is registered and operates in Shenzhen City, the PRC and is recognized as “Enterprise Located in Special Economic Zone”. Hence, Shenzhen Fuwaysun is entitled to income tax at a preferential tax rate of 15% over the transitional period under the New CIT Law. Shenzhen Fuwaysun is also entitled to the tax holiday at 50%-reduction in its preferential corporate income tax rate for the following three years, expiring through fiscal year 2012.

Introduction
Through our operating affiliate, Shenzhen Fuwaysun Technology Company Limited, a Peoples Republic of China (“China” or “PRC”) corporation (“Shenzhen Fuwaysun”), we are engaged primarily in the development, production and sale of solar products, including a solar insect killer and other products designed for agricultural and commercial use. Our manufacturing facility is located in Shenzhen, PRC, and a substantial majority of our current sales and business operations are in China.
Corporate History
We were incorporated in the State of Colorado on March 13, 2006 under the name V2K International, Inc. From March, 2006, through January, 2010, we were in the business of selling and supporting franchises in the residential and commercial window fashion industry, and in the business of developing and licensing proprietary software which allows users to decorate windows for both residential and commercial customers. During this time, our business operations were carried on through two wholly-owned subsidiaries, V2K Window Fashions, Inc. and V2K Technology, Inc.
On January 8, 2010, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Fuwaysun Technology, Ltd., (“Fuwaysun”), a Colorado corporation, in a share exchange transaction. As a result of completion of this share exchange transaction, Fuwaysun, its wholly-owned subsidiary Fuwaysun Technology (HK) Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (“FTHK”) and Forboss Solar (Shenzhen) Co, Ltd, a PRC corporations, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of FTHK, became our wholly-owned subsidiaries, and Shenzhen Fuwaysun Technology Company Limited, a PRC corporation (“Shenzhen Fuwaysun”) became our operating affiliate. In conjunction with this share exchange transaction, we changed our name to AgriSolar Solutions, Inc.
We completed the share exchange transaction with Fuwaysun in order to acquire its business operations, and with the intent of focusing our business operations exclusively on the operations of Fuwaysun. As a result, on January 11, 2010, we sold our interest in V2K Window Fashions, Inc., and V2K Technology, Inc., for nominal consideration to Lotus Holdings, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, which is an entity controlled by the former officers and directors of the Company.
As a result of completion of the share exchange transaction, Shenzhen Fuwaysun became our operating affiliate. Shenzhen Fuwaysun was formed in 2006 to manufacture plastic injection parts and plastic moulds at its factory in Shenzhen, PRC. Initially, its business was limited to manufacturing and supplying parts for use in various products, including products used in the automotive industry, in household products, electrical appliances, hospital products, digital products, communication and computer equipment, toys and other industries. Commencing in 2007, Shenzhen Fuwaysun expanded its business to include development and production of solar products including a solar insect killer, solar mouse & bird repeller, a portable solar power supply system, a solar sprinkling and
15
irrigation system and other solar products. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, approximately 29.8% of the revenues of Shenzhen Fuwaysun came from production and sale of solar products and approximately 70.2% came from the business of manufacturing and supplying plastic injection parts and plastic moulds. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, approximately 91% of the revenues of Shenzhen Fuwaysun came from production and sale of solar products and approximately 9% came from the business of manufacturing and supplying plastic injection parts and plastic moulds. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, approximately 96% of the revenues of Shenzhen Fuwaysun came from production and sale of solar products and approximately 4% came from the business of manufacturing and supplying plastic injection parts and plastic moulds. For the three months ended June 30, 2011, approximately 98% of the revenues of Shenzhen Fuwaysun came from production and sale of solar products and approximately 2% came from the business of manufacturing and supplying plastic injection parts and plastic moulds.
Corporate Structure
The Chart below depicts our corporate structure. As depicted below, AgriSolar owns 100% of the capital stock of Fuwaysun Technology Ltd., a Colorado corporation (“Fuwaysun”) and Fuwaysun owns 100% of the capital stock of Fuwaysun Technology (HK) Limited, a Hong Kong corporation (“FTHK”). At the present time, we do not have a direct ownership interest in Shenzhen Fuwaysun. However, through a series of contractual arrangements between FTHK and Shenzhen Fuwaysun and its shareholders, Shenzhen Fuwaysun is considered to be our operating affiliate because we are able to exert effective control over it and to receive all of the economic benefits derived from its business operations. We have agreements in place to acquire direct ownership of Shenzhen Fuwaysun, and are currently in the process of completing the administrative steps necessary to finalize the acquisition. Upon completion of these steps, FTHK will own 100% of the capital stock of Forboss Solar (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., a PRC corporation (“Forboss”), and Forboss will own 100% of the capital stock of Shenzhen Fuwaysun, which will then be our operating subsidiary.

Current Operations
We are currently focused on the marketing and sale of our line of solar insect killers within the agricultural industry in China. China ranks first in worldwide farm output, producing a wide variety of crops including rice, wheat, potatoes, corn, cotton, peanuts, vegetables, tobacco, tea, coffee and many types of fruit. A total of approximately 100,000 of the Company’s solar insect killers are currently installed in various types of farms throughout China where all of these types of crops are being grown. Based on test results
16
and reported results from many of these farms, we believe that our line of solar insect killers can provide effective pest control for all of these types of crops, without use of pesticides.
Ministry of Agriculture Subsidy Program
Since 2004, the China Ministry of Agriculture has had a program in place to promote the development of modern agriculture by providing subsidies for purchase of approved agricultural machinery. Six models of the Company’s line of solar insect killers have been approved by the Ministry of Agriculture, and are the only pest control products of their type which are currently approved for purchase under the terms of this subsidy program.
During calendar year 2010, the Ministry of Agriculture subsidy was 23 Billion RMB (approximately US$3.56 billion), and it is expected to be approximately 26 Billion RMB (approximately US $4.02 billion) for calendar year 2011. Under the subsidy program, farmers submit requests for purchase of approved agricultural equipment to local government offices, and following approval, the government purchases the equipment on their behalf.
The six models of our line of solar insect killers which have been approved by the Ministry of Agriculture are as follows:
| | | |
| | | |
| | | |
Model no. | Description | Allowance* | Retail Price* |
FWS-DBL-0 | portable solar insect killer | RMB 500.00 US$ 77.23 | RMB 1550.00 US$239.42 |
FWS-DBL-1 | solar insect killer (one bulb) | RMB 1,200.00 US$ 185.36 | RMB 4,100.00 US$633.31 |
FWS-DBL-2 | solar insect killer (two bulb) | RMB 2,000.00 US$ 308.93 | RMB 6,800.00 US$1,050.37 |
FWS-SP-4 | multifunctional portable sparking insect killer (one bulb) | RMB 380 – 450 US$ 58.73 – 69.55 | RMB 1,550 US$ 239.57 |
FWS-SP05-12/1 | intelligent sparking solar insect killer (one bulb) | RMB 1,500 US$ 239.57 | RMB 5,800 US$ 896.45 |
FWS-SP05-12/2 | intelligent sparking solar insect killer (two bulb) | RMB 2,200 US$ 340.03 | RMB 7,800 US$ 1,205,56 |
US$ calculated at the rate of 6.47 RMB to 1 US$.
Under the subsidy program, the government establishes both an allowance price and a maximum retail price for each product. The Company selects distributors and agrees to sell its products to them for the allowance price, which is the equivalent of the wholesale price. The distributors, in turn, are responsible for contacting the local government offices, which are the final purchasers of the products under the subsidy program, and negotiating the final sales price. When the government office completes the purchase transaction using subsidy funds, we receive the allowance price for each product sold, and the distributor retains the difference between the allowance price and the final negotiated purchase price.
Our profit margin from sales of our products generally ranges between 30% and 35%. However, because of the large mark-up between the allowance price and the retail price, which is the maximum purchase price the government will pay for the products under the subsidy program, the potential profit margin for distributors is much larger than the Company’s profit margin. As a result, distributors selected by the Company have a strong incentive to market the Company’s products.
Only agricultural products approved by the Ministry of Agriculture are eligible for purchase under the subsidy program. However, the program is administered by the local Department of Agriculture within each of the 32 areas in China which is designated as a province, an autonomous region or a municipality. As a result, in addition to Ministry of Agriculture approval, it is also necessary for the Company to obtain separate approval from the local Department of Agriculture in any geographical area in which it intends to make sales under the subsidy program.
During the three months ended June 30, 2011, we were successful in selling our products under the subsidy program in 26 provinces, a significant increase as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010.
17
As of June 30, 2011, our products have been formally included for 2011 in the list of approved products for 29 provinces.
We are currently expanding our operations in the European market. In May 2011 we entered into a distribution agreement for the exclusive distribution of our products in Europe. The distributor is currently ordering samples and developing its distribution strategies.
Critical Accounting Policies
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, we experienced negative cash flows from operations of $1,002,799 with an accumulated deficit of $1,306,147 as of that date. Our continuation as a going concern through June 30, 2012 is dependent upon the continuing financial support from our stockholders and credit facilities. We are currently pursuing additional financing for our operations. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in securing sufficient funds to sustain the operations.
These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that may result in our not being able to continue as a going concern.
We have identified the following accounting policies that are important to the presentation of financial information in this report.
Use of Estimates
In preparing these consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the years reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Variable Interest Entity
Our subsidiary, FTHK through Shenzhen Fuwaysun operates its business in the PRC in the form of a VIE.
FTHK entered into a series of contractual arrangements with Shenzhen Fuwaysun. Through the contractual arrangements, described below, we have control of Shenzhen Fuwaysun and the right to substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership.
Agreements that provide us with effective control over Shenzhen Fuwaysun:
1.
Option Agreement, FTHK has the option to purchase all Shenzhen Fuwaysun’s assets and ownership at any time.
2.
Operating Agreement and Exclusive Consulting Services Agreement, FTHK is appointed as the exclusive service provider for Shenzhen Fuwaysun to provide business support and related consulting services. Shenzhen Fuwaysun agrees to pay a consulting and service fee equal to 100% of their net profits to FTHK.
3.
Pledge Agreement, Shenzhen Fuwaysun and its shareholders agreed to pledge their legal interest to FTHK as security for performance of the obligations of Shenzhen Fuwaysun under the Exclusive Consulting Services Agreement.
4.
Proxy Agreement, The shareholders of Shenzhen Fuwaysun agreed to irrevocably grant FTHK all of their voting rights as shareholders of Shenzhen Fuwaysun.
With the above agreements, FTHK demonstrates its ability to control Shenzhen Fuwaysun as the primary beneficiary and the operating results of the VIE was included in the consolidated financial statements for the years presented.
We believe that FTHK’s contractual arrangements with Shenzhen Fuwaysun are in compliance with PRC law and are legally enforceable. However, uncertainties in the PRC legal system could limit the Company’s ability to enforce these contractual arrangements.
Our ability to control Shenzhen Fuwaysun also depends on the voting power obtained under the Proxy Agreement. As noted above, we believe this Proxy Agreement is legally enforceable but may not be as effective as direct equity ownership.
18
In addition, if the legal structure and contractual arrangements were found to be in violation of any existing PRC laws and regulations, the PRC government could, among other things:
·
revoke our business and operating licenses;
·
require us to discontinue or restrict operations;
·
restrict our right to issue the invoice and collect revenues;
·
block our websites;
·
require us to restructure the operations in such a way as to compel us to establish a new enterprise, re-apply for the necessary licenses or relocate our business, staff and assets;
·
impose additional conditions or requirements with which the Group may not be able to comply; or
·
take other regulatory or enforcement actions against us that could be harmful to our business.
The imposition of any of these penalties may result in a material and adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business. In addition, if the imposition of any of these penalties causes us to lose the rights to direct the activities of Shenzhen Fuwaysun or the right to receive its economic benefits, we would no longer be able to consolidate Shenzhen Fuwaysun. We do not believe that any penalties imposed or actions taken by the PRC Government would result in the liquidation of the Company, FTHK or Shenzhen Fuwaysun.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, we recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
Sales of products
Revenue from the sale of solar and plastic products is recognized when the products are delivered to and received by the customers, collectability is reasonably assured and the prices are fixed and determinable.
Revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of value-added tax (“VAT”) and sales allowance. Our products that are locally sold in the PRC are subject to VAT which is levied at the rate of 13% to 17% on the invoiced value of sales. Output VAT is borne by customers in addition to the invoiced value of sales and input VAT is borne by us in addition to the invoiced value of purchases to the extent not refunded for export sales. We have recorded an allowance for sales returns of $17,003 for the three months ended June 30, 2011.
Cost of revenue
Cost of revenue includes cost of raw materials, direct labor, packaging cost, depreciation and production overhead that are directly attributable to the manufacture of solar and other plastic products. Shipping and handling cost are recorded in sales and marketing expense and are recognized when the related product is delivered to the customer.
Comprehensive income
ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Accumulated comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. This comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.
Foreign currencies translation
Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations.
Our reporting currency is the United States Dollars (“US$”) and the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been expressed in US$. In addition, our operating subsidiaries in Hong Kong and the PRC maintain their books and record in their respective local currencies, Hong Kong Dollars (“HK$”) and Renminbi Yuan (“RMB”), which is a functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which their operations are conducted.
In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not US$ are translated into
19
US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830, “translation of Financial Statement”, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statements of stockholders’ equity.
Translation of amounts from the local currency of our subsidiaries into US$ has been made at the following exchange rates for the three month periods ending June 30, 2011 and 2010:
| | | | |
| | 2011 | | 2010 |
Period-end rates HK$: US$1 exchange rate | | 7.7835 | | 7.7838 |
Period average rates HK$: US$1 exchange rate | | 7.7782 | | 7.7738 |
Period-end rates RMB: US$1 exchange rate | | 6.4640 | | 6.7886 |
Period average rates RMB: US$1 exchange rate | | 6.5074 | | 6.8023 |
Stock-based compensation
Stock-based compensation is presented in accordance with the guidance of ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under the provisions of ASC 718, companies are required to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service period in our statement of operations.
We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model (“Black-Sholes model”) to determine fair value. The determination of fair value of shares-based payment awards on the grant using an option-pricing model is affected our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited tom our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee option exercise behaviors.
Non-employee stock-based compensation is presented in accordance with the guidance ASC Topic 505, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”, stock-based compensation related to non-employees is accounted for based on the fair value of the related stock or options or the fair value of the services on the grant date, whichever is more readily determinable in accordance with ASC 718.
Fair value measurement
ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” ("ASC 820"), provides a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, ASC 820 sets forth a definition of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs. ASC 820 defines the hierarchy as follows:
Level 1 - Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equities listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
Level 2 - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts or priced with models using highly observable inputs.
Level 3 - Significant inputs to pricing that are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial transmission rights.
Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, payables, line of credit, notes payable, and amounts due to a stockholder. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, payables, line of credit, notes payable, and amounts due to a stockholder approximate their fair value due to their short maturities.
Recent accounting pronouncements
We have reviewed all recently issued, but no yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoptions of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on our financial condition or the results of operations.

Results of Operation
Results of Operation for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2011 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2010.
Revenue
Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $5,564,788 as compared to revenue of $2,934,897 for the three months ended June 30, 2010, an increase of $2,629,891 (89.6%). During the three months ended June 30, 2011, six models of our line of solar insect killers were approved by the Ministry of Agriculture of the PRC and continued as items which were subsidized by the PRC government. As the acceptance of our product grew in 2011 we sold our products into more provinces than in 2010. Moreover, we continued to employ more sales agent to promote our products in different provinces.
Cost of revenue and gross profit:
Cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2011, as a percentage of revenue, was 70.08% as compared to 65.47% for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Our gross profit increased $651,366 from $1,013,429 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to $1,664,795 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. As a percentage of revenue, gross profit decreased from 34.53% for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to 29.92% for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease in our gross profit percentage is mainly due to an increase in raw material costs. Our cash flow from operations was negative and as a result we could not take advantage of quantity discounts which would be available for larger orders of materials. In addition we increase the number of employees involved in our production by approximately 100. A portion of the increase is due to the learning curve associated with these new employees and new equipment installed at our factory.
Operating expenses
Operating expenses increased $692,355 (160%) from $431,530 for the three months ended June 30, 2010 to $1,123,885 for the three months ended June 30, 2011.
Of our operating expenses, $437,538 and $170,750 represent selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The following is a breakdown of our selling and marketing expenses:
| | | | | | | | |

| $ | 437,538 | | $ | 170,750 | | $ | 266,788 |
Accrued selling commissions increased $123,838 as a direct result of increased revenue. Our increase in commissions was 124% as compared to a sales increase of 89.6%. The difference results from more sales being made by commissioned sales people during the three months ended June 30, 2011 than during the three month period ended June 30, 2010. Service fees increased $43,035 also as a direct result of increased revenue and the number of units in service.
Travel expenses increase as we were selling in more provinces in the three months ended June 30, 2011 than in the three months ended June 30, 2010.
We increased the number of personnel assigned to sales and marketing from 20 as of March 31, 2011 to 23 as of June 30, 2011.
We had a shift in our philosophy towards a more directed selling effort. During the three months ended June 30, 2010 our effort were to use general promotional efforts. In three months ended June 30, 2011 we increased our direct advertising by $11,654.
Other selling expenses include membership fees. We joined a number of organizations during the three months ended June 30, 2011 of which we were not members during the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in other selling expenses results primarily for the increased membership fees.

Of our operating expenses, $686,347 and $260,780 represent general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The following is a breakdown of our general and administrative expenses:

General and administrative expenses increased 163%. The most significant increase was the provision for doubtful accounts of $307,341 and the provision for returns of $17,003 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. There was no provision for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Almost all of our sales have been made under the Ministry of Agriculture subsidy program described above. We reviewed each of accounts receivable and made an assessment of the credit worthiness of each of our accounts and we applied an allowance that we believed was reasonable given the facts and circumstances of each account.
During the three months ended June 30, 2011 we made a decision to increase our research and development to enhance the functionality of our existing products so that the products can be used in forested and orchard environments.
During the three months ended June 30, 2011 we incurred investor relations expenses which we did not have in the three month period ended June 30, 2010. This was a planned increase and we expect to continue to incur additional expenses as we keep our shareholders informed on our progress.
Included in other administrative expenses is an adjustment for an over accrual of social insurance expenses in prior years of $61,243. Of the other administrative expenses none of the changes were significant in of itself.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2011, we had working capital of $4,401,232 as compared to a working capital of $3,817,347 at March 31, 2011. However the working capital at June 30, 2011 included accounts receivable of $12,095,849, broken down as follows.
| | |
Accounts receivable, trade | | |
- Billed | $ | 2,023,179 |
- Accrued | | 10,504,017 |
| | 12,527,196 |
Less: allowances for doubtful accounts and returns | | (431,347) |
Accounts receivable, net | $ | 12,095,849 |
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, we provided for an allowance for doubtful accounts of $307,341. In addition, we provided an allowance for returns of $17,003 for the three months ended June 30, 2011.
Accrued accounts receivable represents revenue from the products that are delivered to, received by and accepted by the customers prior to invoicing, and are presented on the balance sheets in the aggregate with accounts receivable. The accrual results from delays in completion of required documentation under governmental procedures.
Our receivables tend to be outstanding for extended periods of time. Of the total billed accounts receivable at June 30, 2011,
22
$214,858 were between 0 and 90 days old, $141,192 were between 91 and 180 days old, and $1,667,129 were over 180 days old. Of the total accrued accounts receivable at June 30, 2011, $5,970,857 were between 0 and 90 days old, $1,469,420 were between 91 and 180 days old, and $3,063,740 were over 180 days old. This results primarily from our customers’ aging of government subsidy payments. We will continue to monitor our receivable closely. We believe that our receivables, not reserved for, are collectable albeit slowly.
Up to August 15, 2011 we collected approximately $1,884,144 (15.6%) of the balance of the net accounts receivable and we billed approximately $1,131,857 (11%) of the accrued receivables.
We are currently exploring the possibility of factoring our selling our receivable to generate cash flow. There can be no assurance that we will be able to find buyer or investor for our receivables.
During the three months ended June 30, 2011 we used cash in operations of $1,002,799, as compared to cash used in operations of $837,501 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. For the three months ended June 30, 2011 we used cash of $112,750 for investing activities as compared to cash used for investing activities of $17,433 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Cash in the amount of $115,011 was provided from financing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $1,025,166 for the three months ended June 30, 2010.
At June 30, 2011, we had contractual obligations under various non-cancelable operating leases of approximately $363,798 of which $132,681 is due by June 30, 2012.
The aggregate minimum requirements under the non-cancelable leases at June 30, 2011 are as follows:
| | | |
Years ending June 30: | | | |
2012 | | $ | 132,681 |
2013 | | | 96,403 |
2014 | | | 89,472 |
2015 | | | 38,047 |
2016 | | | 7,195 |
Total: | | $ | 363,798 |
We anticipate that we will require additional working capital for various purposes, including payment of expenses associated with production and sale of our line of solar insect killer under the subsidy program of the PRC Ministry of Agriculture. Based on initial purchase plan estimates received from 29 provinces, management is expecting significant orders of its solar insect killer for the remainder of 2011 and for 2012. The expenses associated with a rapid increase in production include purchase of raw materials, payment of costs associated with hiring additional staff, and payment of costs associated with an increase in inventory.
We also intend to use working capital to improve the efficiency of the our production line and to pay marketing and development costs related to seeking to establish distribution channels for our products in markets outside of China, including particularly the US and South America. In that regard we have entered into a distribution agreement for Europe.
The Company does not currently have any commitments to obtain working capital. We are currently assessing all options to raise working capital.
We intend to begin selling our products outside of the PRC and to customers other than those that receive subsidy payment in the PRC. This should result in improved cash flow from operating activities.
Summary June 30, 2011
Our need to raise additional equity or debt financing and our ability to generate cash flow from operations will depend on the timing of additional provinces within the PRC approving the subsidy payments for the purchase of our products and our ability to expand to new markets outside of the PRC. If our working capital is insufficient to fund the implementation of our business plan we will be required to seek additional financing sooner than currently anticipated in order to proceed with our business goals. In the event that we need additional capital and are unable to obtain it, we could be left without sufficient liquidity.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Securities and Exchange Commission defines the term “disclosure controls and procedures” to mean the controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 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 an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company maintains such a system of controls and procedures in an effort to ensure that all information which it is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under the SEC's rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to principal executive and principal financial officers to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the objectives of timely alerting them to material information required to be included in our periodic SEC reports and of ensuring that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified. Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer also concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to provide reasonable assurance of the achievement of these objectives.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the period ended June 30, 2011, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 2.
UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
During the three months ended June30, 2011, we issued 659,343 shares of Series AAA Preferred Stock. The gross proceeds from the sale was $230,770. There were no costs related to this issuance.
The Series AAA Preferred Stock has a stated value of $0.35 per share and is entitled to one vote for each share held. The holders of Series AAA Preferred Stock also are entitled to an annual dividend rate of 4% and payable in cash, semi-annually, in arrears. In the event of liquidation, the holders of Series AAA Preferred Stock are entitled to a preference of $0.35 per share, in cash, equal to 100% of the stated value for each share outstanding, plus an amount equal to all accrued but unpaid dividends thereon, whether or not declared. However, the Series AAA Preferred Stock is subordinate to the Series AA Preferred Stock with respect to dividend rights and rights on liquidation. At the option of the holders, each share of Series AAA Preferred Stock may be converted into one (1) share of common stock of the Company and one warrant to purchase common stock, together with the payment of all accrued but unpaid dividends in the form of common stock at a price of $0.35 per share. Each warrant will then be convertible into one share of common stock at a price of $0.70 per share for a period of 5 years.
The Company relied upon the exemption from registration contained in Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as the offer and sale was made outside of the United States to an investor who was not a US person.
