GREAT CHINA INTERNATIONAL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
1. | Description of business |
Great China International Holdings, Inc., (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 4, 1987, under the name of Quantus Capital, Inc. The Company, through its various subsidiaries, is engaged in commercial and residential real estate leasing, management, consulting, investment, development and sales in the city of Shenyang, Liaoning Province, in the People’ Republic of China (“PRC”).
2. | Summary of significant accounting policies |
Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for any future period. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. The results of the three month periods ended Mar 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2012.
Principles of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company transactions and balances within the Company are eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign currency translation
The Company uses the United States dollar for financial reporting purposes. The Company’s subsidiaries maintain their books and records in their functional currency - Chinese Yuan Renminbi (CNY), being the primary currency of the economic environment in which their operations are conducted. All assets and liabilities are translated at the current exchange rate, stockholder’s equity are translated at the historical rates and income statement and statement of cash flows items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows may not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive as a component of shareholders’ equity.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, including accounts in book overdraft positions, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents.
Allowance for doubtful accounts
The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and other receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31,2011, the Company reserved $1,698,843 and $1,699,814 respectively, for other receivable bad debt, and $695,281 and $695,678, respectively, for accounts receivable bad debt. The Company also reserved $1,984,915 and $1,986,050 respectively for loans receivable.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment is being depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis over useful lives as follows:
Buildings | 8-26 years |
Equipment | 5 years |
Automobile | 5 years |
Office furniture and fixtures | 5 years |
Repairs and maintenance costs are normally charged to the statement of operations and other comprehensive income in the year in which they are incurred. In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that the expenditure has resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of the asset, the expenditure is capitalized as an additional cost of the asset.
Property and equipment are evaluated annually for any impairment in value. Where the recoverable amount of any property and equipment is determined to have declined below its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to reflect the decline in value. There were no property and equipment impairments recognized as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 respectively.
Real estate held for development or sale
The Company capitalizes as real estate held for development or sale, the direct construction and development costs, property taxes, interest incurred on costs related to land under development and other related costs (i.e. engineering, surveying, landscaping, etc.) until the property reaches its intended use. As of the December 31, 2010, except the parking spaces, all the merchantable real estates of Qiyuan New Village, Peacock Garden, Chenglong Garden had been sold. As of March 31,2012 and December 31, 2011, real estate held for development or sale amounted to zero.
Properties held for rental
Properties include buildings held for rental and land use rights, which are being depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line basis over 20-26 years. As of March 31,2012 and December 31, 2011, net property held for rental amounted to $48,594,958 and $49,420,220, respectively. Accumulated depreciation of rental properties amounted to $24,185,110 as of March 31,2012 and $23,402,215 as of December 31, 2011.
Revenue recognition
Real estate sales – Revenue from the sales of development properties is recognized by the full accrual method when the sale is consummated. A sale is not considered consummated until (1) the parties are bound by the terms of a contract, (2) all consideration has been exchanged, (3) any permanent financing of which the seller is responsible has been arranged, (4) all conditions precedent to closing have been performed, (5) the seller does not have substantial continuing involvement with the property, and (6) the usual risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the buyer. Sales transactions not meeting all the conditions of the full accrual method are accounted for using the deposit method of accounting. Under the deposit method, all costs are capitalized as incurred, and payments received from the buyer are recorded as a deposit liability.
Rental income and management fee income – The Company recognizes the rental income on the straight-line basis over the terms of the tenancy agreements. The management fee, including the service fee mainly for property management, maintenance and repair, and security, is recognized quarterly over the terms of the tenancy agreements.
Real estate capitalization and cost allocation – Real estate held for development or sale is stated at cost or estimated net realizable value, whichever is lower. Costs include land and land improvements, direct construction costs and development costs, including predevelopment costs, interest on indebtedness, real estate taxes, insurance, construction overhead and indirect project costs. Selling and advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Total estimated costs of multi-unit developments are allocated to individual units based upon specific identification methods.
Impairment – If real estate is determined to be impaired, it will be written down to its fair market value. Real estate held for development or sale costs include the cost of land use rights, land development and home construction costs, engineering costs, insurance costs, wages, real estate taxes, and interest related to development and construction. All costs are accumulated by specific projects and allocated to residential and commercial units within the respective projects. The Company leases the land for the residential unit sites under land use rights with various terms from the government of the PRC. The Company evaluates the carrying value for impairment based on the undiscounted future cash flows of the assets. Write-downs of inventory deemed impaired would be recorded as adjustments to the cost basis. No depreciation is provided for construction in progress.
Other income
Other income consists of land leveling income, parking lot income, cleaning income and etc, of which land leveling income was a one-time service performed at the request of our customers. This income was recognized as the services were performed and the settled amount has been paid in accordance with the terms of the agreement.
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.
As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2012, respectively, there were no outstanding securities or other contracts to issue common stock, such as options, warrants or conversion rights, which would have a dilutive effect on earnings per share as the effect of options outstanding at that time was anti- dilutive.
Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach which allows for the recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets based upon the likelihood of realization of tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis 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 difference are expected to affect taxable income.
The Company records a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, if any, based on its estimates of its future taxable income as well as its tax planning strategies when it is more likely than not that a portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Concentrations of business and credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and other receivables arising from its normal business activities. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions. The Company maintains large sums of cash in two major banks in China. The aggregate balance in such accounts as of March 31, 2012 was $ 6,330,775. There is no insurance securing these deposits in China. The Company has a diversified customer base, most of which are in China.
The Company controls credit risk related to accounts receivable through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, based upon factors surrounding the credit risk, establishes an allowance, if required, for uncollectible accounts and, as a consequence, believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure beyond such allowance is limited.
Statement of cash flows
Cash flows from the Company's operations is calculated based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows may not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.
Recent accounting pronouncements
In December 2011, the FASB issued guidance on offsetting (netting) assets and liabilities. Entities are required to disclose both gross information and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. The new guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after January 1, 2013. The Company does not believe that this will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued amended guidance on the presentation of comprehensive income. The amendments provide an entity with an 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. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2011 and should be applied on a retrospective basis. As the amendments are limited to presentation only, the Company does not believe that this will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 2011 financial statements may have been reclassified to conform to the 2012 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations or retained earnings.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company’s assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a working capital deficit of $27,117,713 and $27,643,654 as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.. As the Company has limited cash flow from operations, its ability to maintain normal operations is dependent upon obtaining adequate cash to finance its overhead, sales and marketing activities. Additionally, in order for the Company to meet its financial obligations, including salaries, debt service and operations, it has maintained substantial short term bank loans that have historically been renewed each year. The Company’s ability to meet its cash requirements for the next twelve months largely depends on the bank loans that involve interest expense requirements that reduce the amount of cash we have for our operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company is in the process of obtaining informal assurance from our current lender that our short term loans will continue to be renewed and further opening dialog with the lender to convert the short term loans to long term loans. Additionally, the Company is assessing its ability to increase rental rates for its leasing business in order to generate additional revenue. Further, the Company is continuing to focus efforts on cost containment to reduce general and administrative expenses. With its relevant hands-on expertise, the Company also plans to expand operations to include property management.
During 2011, the Company entered into a collateralized loan agreement with Beijing Sihai Real Estate Development Ltd., pursuant to which the Company loaned $2,748,693, due on November 29, 2013. The loan bears interest at a variable rate based on the Peoples’ Bank of China lending rate applicable to the period plus 10%. $317,586 of repayment from Beijing Sihai Real Estate Development Ltd was received during 2012 first quarter.
During 2011, the Company entered into a collateralized loan agreement with Shenyang Landing Concrete Ltd. Company, pursuant to which, the Company loaned $2,383,260, due on March 27, 2013. The loan bears interest at a variable rate based on the Peoples’ Bank of China lending rate applicable to the period.. On November 30, 2011 the Company, along with Shenyang Landing Concrete Ltd reassigned the loan amount to and Kaiyuan Hongyun Concrete Admixture Ltd. with the same terms.
During 2009, the Company entered into an uncollateralized loan agreement with Zhongxin Guoan Ltd., pursuant to which the Company loaned $1,986,050, due on October 30, 2011. The loan bore interest at a variable rate based on the Peoples’ Bank of China lending rate applicable to the period. Subsequent to the issuance of the loan, the Company determined that the loan was uncollectible and recorded a reserve on the entire loan amount. During the fourth quarter of 2011, this loan was reassigned to Shenyang Konggang New City Investment Development Ltd., who is working on a development project with Zhongxin Guoan Ltd. The loan remains uncollateralized and is now due on November 24, 2013. The loan bears interest at a variable rate based on the Peoples’ Bank of China lending rate applicable to the period.

The first factor is that balance of account receivable the other receivable increased by $217,126 during the first three month of 2012, but only $46,695 increase during the same period of 2011. This resulted the cash flow from operating activity decrease by $170,431 compared first three month of 2012 to the same period of 2011.
The second factor is that the balance of advance from buyers decrease by $115,183 during the first three month of 2012, but during the same period of 2011, the decrease from advance from buyers only $38,921. which resulted that cash flow from operating activity decreased by $76,262 compared first three month of 2012 to the same period of 2011.
The last factor is the company paid more tax during the first three month of 2012 than the same period of 2011.

Net cash flows from financing activities were $309,169 and negative $2,290,671,during first three month of 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase is due to the repayment of around $300,000 from the loan to a third party during 2012 first quarter.
(5) Liquidity and Capital Resources
Current liabilities exceeded current assets by $27,117,713 as of March 31, 2012. The Short Term Loans amounted to $20,928,940, about 77% of the working capital deficit. They were bank loans due in June 2012 and October 2012, respectively, and secured by some of the Company’s real estate assets. It has become common practice in China, for banks and companies to renegotiate loan extensions on an annual basis. This is driven by the ever changing banking regulatory environment and a situation where banks are becoming more conservative.
Under the circumstances, most lending banks have usually worked closely with borrowers for loan extension or restructuring within the administrative guidelines of the government. As State policies are issued outside the control of the banks in China and form part of the macro and micro-economic measures, many bankers and their customers work together to deal with the situation provided the borrowers are responsible.
