Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
China United Insurance Service, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Law Enterprises Co., Ltd. and subsidiaries (“The Company’) as of June 30, 2012, and 2011 and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, and the consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, in conformity with US generally accepted accounting principles.
China United Insurance Service, Inc. acquired Action Holdings Financial Limited on August 24, 2012. Action Holdings Financial Limited acquired Law Enterprise Co., Ltd. on August 17, 2012. Our audit report is on the historical financial statements of Law Enterprise Co., Ltd. and subsidiaries. See Note 1 to the financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2012 AND 2011
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
Action Holdings Financial Limited (“AHFL” or the “Company”) is a limited liability company (“LLC”) incorporated under the laws of British Virgin Islands on April 30, 2012.
On August 17, 2012, AHFL purchased 13,593,015 shares of common stock of Law Enterprise Co., Ltd. (“Law Enterprise”), a company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Taiwan on January 30, 1996, from certain shareholders at New Taiwan Dollar (“$NT”) $NT 12.8 ($0.44) per share. As of August 24, 2012, Law Enterprise holds (i) 100% of Law Insurance Broker Co., Ltd. (“Law Broker”), a company limited by shares incorporated in Taiwan on October 9, 1992; (ii) 97.84% of Law Risk Management & Consultant Co., Ltd. (“Law Management”), a company limited by shares incorporated in Taiwan on December 5, 1987; and (iii) 96% of Law Insurance Agent Co., Ltd. (“Law Agent”), an LLC incorporated in Taiwan on June 3, 2000.
Law Enterprise is a holding company for its operating subsidiaries in Taiwan. Law Broker primarily engages in insurance brokerage and insurance agency business across Taiwan, while Law Management and Law Agent are not operation.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AHFL and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation.
As of June 30, 2012, AHFL was a holding company with no assets or liabilities or operations. These historical financial statements are essentially those of Law Enterprises and its subsidiaries as discussed above.
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP"). The functional currency for our subsidiaries in Taiwan is $NT. However, the accompanying consolidated financial statements were translated and presented in United States Dollars (“$” or “USD”).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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 dates of the consolidated financial statements and the amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Management makes these estimates using the best information available when the estimates are made; however, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is subject to risks from, among other things, competition associated with the industry in general, other risks associated with financing, liquidity requirements, rapidly changing customer requirements, limited operating history, and foreign currency exchange rates.
Comprehensive Income
The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 220 (“ASC 220”), “Reporting Comprehensive Income”, which establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances in a full set of general purpose financial statements. ASC 220 defines comprehensive income as net income and all changes to stockholders' equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders, including adjustments to minimum pension liabilities, accumulated foreign currency translation, and unrealized gains or losses on marketable securities.
Foreign Currency Transactions
The consolidated financial statements were translated into United States Dollars (“USD”) in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 830 "Foreign Currency Transaction". According to the statement, all assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet dates; stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with ASC 220 “Comprehensive Income". Gains and losses resulting from the translations of foreign currency transactions are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.
Cash and Equivalents
For Statements of Cash Flows purposes, the Company considers cash on hand, bank deposits, and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased, such as commercial paper, to be cash and equivalents.
The Company maintains cash with banks in Taiwan. Cash accounts are not insured or otherwise protected. Should any bank holding cash become insolvent, or if the Company is otherwise unable to withdraw funds, the Company would lose the cash with that bank; however, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risks on its cash in bank accounts.
Marketable Securities
The Company invests part of excess cash in equity securities and government bonds. Such investments are included in “Marketable securities” on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Equity securities investments are classified as trading securities and reported at fair value (“FV”) with changes in FV recorded in “Other Income”. Bonds are classified as available-for-sale and reported at FV with unrealized gains and losses included in “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).”
Accounts Receivable
The Company reviews its accounts receivable regularly to determine if a bad debt allowance is necessary at each period-end. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes the age of receivables outstanding, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the necessity of making such allowance.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Gain or loss on disposal of property, plant or equipment is recorded in income at disposal. Expenditures for betterments, renewals and additions are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance expenses are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation for financial reporting purposes is provided using the straight-line method over a useful life of three to ten years with salvage rate of 13.33% to 25%. Property, plant and equipment mainly consists of office furniture, computers and leasehold improvements.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, the Company reviews the carrying values of long-lived assets whenever facts and circumstances indicate an asset may be impaired. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by it. If an asset is considered impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its FV. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or FV, less costs of disposal. No impairment was recognized for the years ended June 30, 2012 or 2011.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenue is from insurance agency and brokerage services. The Company, through its subsidiaries, sells insurance products to customers, and obtains commissions from the respective insurance companies according to the terms of each insurance company service agreement. The Company recognizes revenue when the following have occurred: (i) persuasive evidence of an agreement between the insurance company and insured exists (ii) services were provided, (iii) the fee for such services is fixed or determinable and collectability of the fee is reasonably assured. Insurance agency services are considered complete and revenue is recognized when an insurance policy becomes effective. The customers are entitled to a 10-day cancellation period from the date of the issuance of the policies, in which the customers can cancel the contract without any fees. The Company is notified of such cancellations by the insurance carriers. For the years ending June 30, 2012 and 2011, policy cancellations were $62,990 and $44,092, respectively.
The Company pays commissions to its sub-agents when an insurance product is sold by the sub-agent. The Company recognizes commission revenue on a gross basis. The commissions paid by the Company to its sub-agents are recorded as costs of revenue.
Income Taxes
The Company utilizes ASC 740, “Income Taxes”, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
When tax returns are filed, it is likely some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits is classified as interest expense and penalties are classified in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations and other comprehensive income (loss). As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not have any uncertain tax positions.
During the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company was not subject to income tax examinations by taxing authorities and did not recognize any interest or penalties.
Fair Values of Financial Instruments
ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, defines FV, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of FV measurement and enhances disclosures requirements for FV measures. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are reasonable estimates of FV because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels are defined as follows:
• Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
• Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.
• Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the FV.
Concentration of Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and equivalents and accounts receivable. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, substantially all of the Company’s cash and equivalents and restricted cash were held by major financial institutions in Taiwan, which management believes are of high credit quality. With respect to accounts receivable, the Company generally does not require collateral and does not have an allowance for doubtful accounts.
The Company has two principal insurance companies, Fubong Life Insurance Co., Ltd. (“Fubong”) and Far Glory Life Insurance (“Far Glory”), for which it acts as an insurance agent. For the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company’s revenue from sale of insurance policies underwritten by these two companies was:
2012 | 2011 | |||||||
Fubong | $ | 13,431,221 | $ | 13,142,229 | ||||
Far Glory | 12,133,791 | 8,522,325 |
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company’s receivables from these two companies were:
2012 | 2011 | |||||||
Fubong | $ | 1,233,487 | $ | 904,200 | ||||
Far Glory | 2,332,517 | 1,151,744 |
The Company's operations are in Taiwan. Accordingly, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic, foreign currency exchange and legal environments in Taiwan, and by the state of Taiwan's economy. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in Taiwan, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.
Operating Leases
Leases, where substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership of assets remain with the leasing company that do not meet the capitalization criteria of ASC 840 “Leases”, are accounted for as operating leases. Rentals under operating leases are expensed on the straight-line basis over the lease term.
Segment Reporting
The Company follows ASC 280, “Segment Reporting”, for its segment reporting. For the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company’s chief operating decision maker managed and reviewed its business as a single operating segment providing insurance brokerage and agency services across Taiwan. All revenues are derived from Taiwan and all long-lived assets are in Taiwan.
Contingencies
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which could result in a loss to the Company but which will be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves judgment. In assessing loss contingencies arising from legal proceedings pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may rise from such proceedings, the Company’s management evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought.
If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss will be incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, then the estimated liability is accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material would be disclosed.
Statement of Cash Flows
In accordance with ASC 230, “Statement of Cash Flows”, cash flows from the Company's operations are calculated based upon the local currencies and an average exchange rate is used. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows may not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-01, Receivables (Topic 310), to temporarily delay the effective date of the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings (“TDR”) in ASU 2010-20 (Receivables (Topic 310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses) for public entities. The delay is intended to allow the Board time to complete its deliberations on what constitutes a TDR. Under the existing effective date in Update 2010-20, public-entity creditors would have provided disclosures about TDR for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The deferral in this update will result in more consistent disclosures about TDR. This amendment does not apply to nonpublic entities and does not defer the effective date of the other disclosure requirements in Update 2010-20. The deferral in this amendment is effective upon issuance. The Company does not expect this update to have any material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In January 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-02 Receivables Topic 310 "A Creditor's Determination of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring". The amendments in ASU 2011-02 provide additional guidance to clarify when a loan modification or restructuring is considered a TDR to address current diversity in practice and lead to more consistent application of US GAAP for debt restructurings. In evaluating whether a restructuring constitutes a TDR, a creditor must separately conclude that both of the following exist:
1. | The restructuring constitutes a concession. |
2. | The debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. |
The amendments to Topic 310 clarify the guidance regarding the evaluation of both considerations above. Additionally, the amendments clarify that a creditor is precluded from using the effective interest rate test in the debtor's guidance on restructuring of payables (paragraph 470-60-55-10) when evaluating whether a restructuring constitutes a TDR. ASU No. 2011-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-02 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In April, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-03 Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860), “Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements”. The amendments in this ASU 2011-03 remove from the assessment of effective control:
1. | The criterion requiring the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on the substantially agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee; and |
2. | The collateral maintenance implementation guidance related to that criterion. |
Other criteria applicable to the assessment of effective control are not changed by the amendments in Topic 860. The guidance in this Update is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The guidance should be applied prospectively to transactions or modifications of existing transactions that occur on or after the effective date. Early adoption is not permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), “Amendments to achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in US GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)”. The amendments in this Update change the wording used to describe the requirements in US GAAP for measuring FV and for disclosing information about FV measurements. The amendments include the following:
1. | Those that clarify the Board’s intent about the application of existing FV measurement and disclosure requirements. |
2. | Those that change a particular principle or requirement for measuring FV or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. |
In addition, to improve consistency in application across jurisdictions some changes in wording are necessary to ensure that US GAAP and IFRS FV measurement and disclosure requirements are described in the same way (for example, using the word shall rather than should to describe the requirements in US GAAP).
The amendments in this Update are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early application by public entities is not permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05 Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), “Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. In this Update, an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income.
