1. Organization and Principal Activities
China INSOnline Corp. (“CHIO”) was incorporated on December 23, 1988 as a Delaware corporation and commenced operations on January 1, 1989.
CHIO and subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is an Internet service and media company focusing on the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) insurance industry. With localized websites targeting Greater China, the Company primarily provides, through Beijing ZYTX Technology Co., Ltd (“ZYTX”), a network portal through its industry website, www.soobao.cn, to insurance companies, agents and consumers for advertising, online inquiry, news circulation, online transactions, statistic analysis and software development. The Company is also a licensed online motor vehicle, property and life insurance agent generating revenues through sales commissions from customers in the PRC
On October 28, 2008, Rise and Grow Limited (“Rise & Grow”) and ZYTX entered into a Share Purchase Agreement pursuant to which Rise & Grow acquired 100% ownership of Guang Hua Insurance Agency Company Limited (“GHIA”), a limited liability company organized under the laws of the PRC, through ZYTX to act as legal owner in China. GHIA is an insurance agent company which operates in the PRC. The consideration was US$5,846,244 (RMB40,000,000) in cash. This share purchase transaction resulted in Rise & Grow obtaining 100% of the voting and beneficial interest in GHIA.
On April 2, 2009, Zhi Bao Da Tong (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd changed its name into New Fortune Associate (Beijing) Information Technology Co., Ltd. (“NFA”).
In July 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) launched the “FASB Accounting Standards Codification” (the “ASC”) as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP. The FASB ASC did not change current U.S. GAAP, but simplified user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by organizing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place. All existing accounting standard documents were superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the FASB ASC is now considered nonauthoritative. The FASB ASC was effective for the Company’s financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2009. The adoption of the FASB ASC did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statement.
2. Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) applicable to Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of operations. Results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full year. The condensed consolidated balance sheet information as of June 30, 2009 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with that report.

3. Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements included the accounts of CHIO and the following subsidiaries:
a) | Rise & Grow – 100% subsidiary of CHIO; |
b) | ETI – 100% subsidiary of CHIO; |
c) | NFA – 100% subsidiary of Rise & Grow; |
d) | RZYC – 100% subsidiary of ETI; |
e) | ZYTX – a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) of NFA. It does this by controlling ZYTX, through an Exclusive Technical Consulting and Service Agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”) and related transaction documents dated as of September 28, 2007 (collectively, the “Service Agreements”). |
According to the Consulting Agreement, NFA has the exclusive right to provide technical consulting and other services to ZYTX, effectively restricting and controlling the operations of ZYTX. Pursuant to Clause 1.3 of the Consulting Agreement, NFA, “shall be the sole and exclusive owner of all right, title and interests to any and all intellectual property rights arising from the performance of this Agreement (including but not limited to, copyrights, patent, know-how, commercial secrets and others), no matter whether it is developed by NFA or by ZYTX based on NFA’s intellectual property rights.” Thus, NFA could substantially, solely and exclusively possess all intellectual property of ZYTX which comprise the core value and assets of ZYTX (ultimately, solely and exclusively possessed by the Company); and
f) | GHIA – 100% subsidiary of Rise & Grow through ZYTX to act as legal owner in China. |
ZYTX and GHIA are the major components of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, representing over 99% of the assets and liabilities of the Company.
Inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Economic and Political Risks
The Company's operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environments in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy. The Company's operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company's results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti−inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.
(b) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
(c) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of financial instruments classified as current assets and current liabilities, such as accounts receivables, other receivables, prepayments and deposits, accounts payable, other payables and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments.
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements) on January 1, 2008 for all financial assets and liabilities and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.
ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of highly rated money market funds at a variety of well-known institutions with original maturities of three months or less. The original cost of these assets approximates fair value due to their short term maturity. The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
The Company’s financial instruments include accounts receivable, prepayment and deposits, other receivables, accounts payable, other payables and accrued liabilities, business tax payable, amount due to director, income tax payable and deferred taxes. We estimated that the carrying amount approximates fair value due to their short-term nature.

4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
(d) Revenue Recognition
Advertising
Advertising revenues are derived mainly from online advertising arrangements, which allow advertisers to place advertisements on particular areas of the Company’s web sites, in particular formats and over particular periods of time. Such arrangements have generally included some combination of the following: website construction service, web site advertising and website maintenance services. In accordance with ASC 605-25, Multiple-Element Arrangement (formerly Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 00-21, Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables), advertising arrangements involving multiple deliverables are broken down into single-element arrangements based on their relative fair value for revenue recognition purposes, when possible.
The details of revenue recognition of each type of advertising revenues are illustrated below:
· | Website construction service, which is usually included in new advertising contract, mainly consist fee for design and computer coding of the new web site. The service fee is recognized when the web site is completed. |
· | Website advertising is recognized ratably over the displayed period of the advertisement, which is typically one year. |
· | Website maintenance service is providing technically support and maintenance for the customers’ web sites. Such services are generally on contract basis with service period for one year. Revenue is recognized ratably over the contact period. |
Under the guidance of ASC 985-605, Software Revenue Recognition (formerly the Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended by SOP 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition with Respect to Certain Transactions), the Company determines vendor-specific objective evidence (“VOSE”) based on actual prices charged when the service is sold on a standalone basis.
Software Development
Software development revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC 985-605, when the outcome of a contract for software development can be estimated reliably, contract revenue and costs are charged to the income statement by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the balance sheet date, as measured by the proportion that costs incurred to date bear to estimated total costs for each contract. When the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract costs are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. Contract revenue is recognized to the extent of contract costs incurred that it is probable will be recoverable. Where it is probable that the total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognized as an expense immediately.

(e) Revenue Recognition (Continued)
Insurance Commissions
Insurance revenues, net of discounts, represent commissions earned from performing agency-related services. Insurance commissions are recognized at the later of the date when the customer is initially billed or the insurance policy effective date.
In accordance with ASC 605-50-25, Vendor’s Accounting for Consideration Given to a Customer, (formerly EITF No. 01-9, Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer or a Reseller of the Vendor’s Product), cash consideration given to customers or resellers, for which the Company does not receive a separately identifiable benefit or cannot reasonably estimate fair value, are accounted for as a reduction of revenue rather than as an expense.
Cash consideration includes discounts and other offers that entitle a customer to receive a reduction in the price of a product. For the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized $33,585 and $465,520, respectively, as a reduction of revenue for the discount offered to its customers.
(f) Foreign Currency Translation
The accompanying financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The functional currencies of the Company are the Renminbi (“RMB”) and the Hong Kong Dollar (“HKD”). The financial statements are translated into United States Dollars (“US$” or “$”) from RMB and US$ from HKD at years-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred.
| | March 31, 2010 | | | June 30, 2009 | | | March 31, 2009 | |
Period end RMB: US$ exchange rate | | | 6.8361 | | | | 6.83191 | | | | - | |

Period average HKD: US$ exchange rate | | | 7.7554 | | | | - | | | | 7.7694 | |
(g) Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. There were no dilutive securities outstanding for the periods presented.
(h) Goodwill
In accordance with ASC 805, Business Combination (formerly SFAS No.141, Business Combination), the total purchase price in a business combination is allocated to their fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the acquisition date, with amounts exceeding the fair values at the acquisition date, being recorded as goodwill. In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (formerly SFAS No.142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets), goodwill is not amortized. Instead, it is tested for impairment on an accrual basis or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired. For the period ended March 31, 2010, the Company did not identify any potential impairment related to its goodwill.

5. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, ASC 810-10-65, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements (formerly SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB 51) changes the accounting and reporting for minority interests. Minority interests will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and will be reported as a component of equity separate from the parent’s equity, and purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in a change in control will be accounted for as equity transactions. In addition, net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement and, upon a loss of control, the interest sold, as well as any interest retained, will be recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in earnings. The adoption of ASC 810-10-65 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In April 2009, the FASB approved ASC 820-10-65-4 (formerly FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly and FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment).
ASC 820-10-65-4 provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with ASC 820 when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. ASC 820-10-65-4 also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. We are required to adopt this FSP for our interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. This FSP does not require disclosures for periods presented for comparative purposes at initial adoption. This FSP requires comparative disclosures only for periods ending after initial adoption.
In March 2008, the FASB issued ASC 815, Derivative and Hedging, (formerly SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities), which expands disclosures to include information about the fair value of derivatives, related credit risks and a company’s strategies and objectives for using derivatives. The adoption of ASC 815 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2008, the FASB issued ASC 815-10-65-3, Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock (formerly EITF No. 07-05, Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. ASC 815-10-65-3 clarifies the determination of whether an instrument (or an embedded feature) is indexed to an entity's own stock, which would qualify as a scope exception under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (formerly SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities). ASC 815-10-65-3 was effective for the financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009. The Company adopted ASC 815-10-65-3 and determined that no balance sheet reclassifications were necessary.
In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 825-10-65, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, (formerly FSP FAS 107-1 and ABP 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments), which requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim and annual reporting periods. The adoption of ASC 825-10-65 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 320-10-65-1, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments (formerly FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments), which amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance in U.S. GAAP for debt securities to make the guidance more operational and to modify the presentation and disclosure of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. The adoption of ASC 320-10-65-1 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

5. Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
In May 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855, Subsequent Events (formerly SFAS 165, Subsequent Events), which establishes accounting and disclosure requirements for events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. ASC 855 requires disclosure of the date through which the Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition or disclosure. ASC 855 also requires events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet and the related estimates to be recognized in the financial statements. Events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or available to be issued should not be recognized, but should be disclosed if material. The adoption of ASC 855 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued FAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“FAS 167”). FAS 167 amends FASB 46(R) to require an enterprise to perform an analysis and ongoing reassessments to determine whether the enterprises variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity and amends certain guidance for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity. It also requires enhanced disclosures that will provide users of financial statements with more transparent information about an enterprises involvement in a variable interest entity. FAS 167 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009 and for all interim reporting periods after that and is not anticipated to have any material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of FAS 167. This recently issued but not yet enacted accounting standard has not been codified by the FASB.
In October 2009, the FASB’s EITF revised its guidance on Revenue Recognition for Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. The revised guidance will enable companies to separately account for multiple revenue-generating activities (deliverables) that they perform for their customers.
Existing U.S. GAAP requires a company to use Vendor-Specific Objective Evidence (“VSOE”) or third party evidence of selling price to separate deliverables in a multiple-deliverable arrangement. The revised guidance will allow the use of an estimated selling price, if neither VSOE nor third-party evidence is available. The revised guidance will require additional disclosures of information about an entity’s multiple-deliverable arrangements. The requirements of the revised guidance may be applied prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the update on its financial position and results of operations and does not plan to early or retroactively adopt the new guidance.
In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The guidance requires disclosure of transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value measurement hierarchy, including the reasons and the timing of the transfers and information on purchases, sales, issuance, and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of the assets and liabilities measured under Level 3 of the fair value measurement hierarchy. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning March 1, 2010. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB updated guidance related to fair-value measurements to clarify the guidance related to measuring fair-value in inactive markets, to modify the recognition and measurement of other-than-temporary impairments of debt securities, and to require public companies to disclose the fair values of financial instruments in interim periods. This updated guidance became effective for the Company beginning June 1, 2009. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

9. Taxes
(a) Corporation Income Tax (“CIT”)
The Company has not recorded a provision for U.S. federal income taxes for the period ended March 31, 2010 due to the net operating loss carry forward in the United States.
On March 16, 2007, the National People’s Congress of China approved the new Corporate Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China (the “New CIT Law”), which was effective from January 1, 2008. Prior to January 1, 2008, the CIT rate applicable to the Company’s subsidiary in the PRC was 33%. As from January 1, 2008, the applicable CIT rate for NFA, the wholly owned subsidiary, is 25%.
Of the $8,321,743 of income taxes payable at March 31, 2010, $8,315,463 represents the amount of income taxes payable by NFA. Of the $8,315,463 of income taxes payable by NFA, $4,508,167 was due on April 30, 2009 and $3,807,296 was due on April 30, 2010. The Company has been negotiating with the tax authorities to defer the payment of CIT due on April 30, 2009 and April 30, 2010 without interest or penalties, and the Company is awaiting the final ruling from the tax authorities.
ZYTX, a VIE of the Company, enjoys a favorable tax rate of 15% as it is considered as a high technology company by the Chinese government. ZYTX is also entitled to a full exemption from CIT for the first two years from January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2008. Starting from January 1, 2009, the CIT rate of ZYTX is 15%. ZYTX is exempted from CIT for the six months period from July 1, 2008 to December 31, 2008 and for 15% for the twelve months period from January 1, 2009 to December 31, 2009. For the nine months ended March 31, 2010, the CIT for ZYTX was $0 as ZYTX has transferred all its net income to its primary beneficiary, NFA.
The applicable CIT rate for GHIA is 25%. For the nine months ended March 31, 2010, the CIT for GHIA was $6,280, which should be payable on April 30, 2010. The Company has been negotiating with the tax authorities to defer the payment of CIT due on April 30, 2010 without interest or penalties, and the Company is awaiting the final ruling from the tax authorities.
Some of the tax concession granted to eligible companies prior to the new CIT law is grand fathered. The new CIT Law has an impact on the deferred tax assets and liabilities of the Company. The Company adjusted deferred tax balances as of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009 based on the current applicable tax rate and will continue to assess the impact of such new law in the future. Effects arising from the enforcement of the new CIT Law were reflected into the accounts by best estimates.
Pursuant to the Inland Revenue Ordinance of Hong Kong, Rise & Grow is subject to Hong Kong Profits Tax at 16.5% for the period ended March 31, 2010 and the year ended June 30, 2009. As Rise & Grow has no assessable profits for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and the year ended June 30, 2009, no provision for profits tax has been made.
Computed “expected” expense of the Company was calculated using 25% income tax rate for the nine and three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Income tax expense is summarized as follows:

Mr. Zhengyu Wang, a significant shareholder, entered into a loan agreement dated January 8, 2010 with Argyll Investments, LLC, and pledged 2,000,000 common stock of the Company to secure a personal loan of $554,400 at an interest rate of 4% per annum for 36 months.
Mr. Zhengyu Wang, a significant shareholder, entered into a loan agreement dated February 16, 2010 with Argyll Investments, LLC, and pledged 2,000,000 common stock of the Company to secure a personal loan of $705,600 at an interest rate of 4% per annum for 36 months.
11. Certain Risks and Concentrations
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.
The Company has $316,227 and $1,207,171 in bank deposits in the banks in China, which constitutes about 98.9% and 99.9% of its total cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively. Historically, deposits in Chinese banks are secured due to the state policy on protecting depositors’ interests. However, China promulgated a new Bankruptcy Law in August 2006, which came into effect on June 1, 2007. The new Bankruptcy Law contains a separate article expressly stating that the State Council may promulgate implementation measures for the bankruptcy of Chinese banks. Under the new Bankruptcy Law, a Chinese bank may go bankrupt. In addition, since China’s concession to World Trade Organization, foreign banks have been gradually permitted to operate in China and have been severe competitors against Chinese banks in many aspects, especially since the opening of RMB businesses to foreign banks in late 2006.
Therefore, the risk of bankruptcy of the bank in which that the Company has deposits has increased. In the event of bankruptcy of the bank which holds the Company’s deposits, the Company is unlikely to recover its deposits back in full since it is unlikely to be classified as a secured creditor based on PRC laws.
As of March 31, 2010, accounts receivable consist primarily of insurance agency of 100%. As of June 30, 2009, accounts receivable consist primarily of software development clients and insurance agents of online insurance advertising, approximately 15% and 84%, respectively. Regarding the Company’s online advertising and insurance agency operations, no individual customer accounted for more than 10% of total net revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and year ended June 30, 2009.

Rise & Grow’s sole business is to act as a holding company for NFA. NFA was formed by Rise & Grow for the purpose of developing computer and network software and related products and to promote the development of high-tech industries in the field of Chinese information technology. It does this by controlling, through an Exclusive Technical Consulting and Service Agreement and related transaction documents dated as of September 28, 2007 (collectively, the “Service Agreements”), Beijing Zhi Yuan Tian Xia Technology Co., Ltd.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of financial instruments classified as current assets and current liabilities, such as accounts receivables, other receivables, prepayments and deposits, accounts payable, other payables and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments.
The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 Fair Value Measurements (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements) on January 1, 2008 for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.
ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
· | Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
· | Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. |
· | Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. |
Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of highly rated money market funds at a variety of well-known institutions with original maturities of three months or less. The original cost of these assets approximates fair value due to their short term maturity. The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
The Company’s financial instruments include accounts receivable, prepayment and deposits, other receivables, accounts payable, other payables and accrued liabilities, business tax payable, amount due to director, income tax payable and deferred taxes. We estimated that the carrying amount approximates fair value due to their short-term nature.
Revenue Recognition
Advertising
Advertising revenues are derived mainly from online advertising arrangements, which allow advertisers to place advertisements on particular areas of the Company’s websites, in particular formats and over particular periods of time. Such arrangements have generally included some combination of the following: website construction services, website advertising and website maintenance services. In accordance with ASC 605-25, “Multiple-Element Arrangement” (formerly Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 00-21, Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables), advertising arrangements involving multiple deliverables are broken down into single-element arrangements based on their relative fair value for revenue recognition purposes, when possible.
The details of revenue recognition of each type of advertising revenues are illustrated below:
· | Website construction services, which are usually included in new advertising contracts, mainly consist of fees for design and computer coding of the new website. The service fee is recognized when the website is completed and wired in the server. |
· | Website advertising is recognized ratably over the displayed period of the advertisement, which is typically one year. |
· | Website maintenance service is providing technically support and maintenance for the customers’ websites. Such services are generally on contract basis with service period for one year. Revenue is recognized ratably over the contact period. |
Under the guidance of ASC 985-605 Software Revenue Recognition (formerly the Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended by SOP 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition with Respect to Certain Transactions), the Company determines vendor-specific objective evidence (“VOSE”) based on actual prices charged when the service is sold on a standalone basis.
Software Development
Software development revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC 985-605, when the outcome of a contract for software development can be estimated reliably, contract revenue and costs are charged to the income statement by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the balance sheet date, as measured by the proportion that costs incurred to date bear to estimated total costs for each contract. When the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract costs are recognized as an expense in the period in which they are incurred. Contract revenue is recognized to the extent of contract costs incurred that it is probable will be recoverable. Where it is probable that the total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognized as an expense immediately.
Insurance Commissions
Insurance revenues, net of discounts, represent commissions earned from performing agency-related services. Insurance commissions are recognized at the later of the date when the customer is initially billed or the insurance policy effective date.
In accordance with ASC 605-50-25, Vendor’s Accounting for Consideration Given to a Customer, (formerly EITF No. 01-9, Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer or a Reseller of the Vendor’s Product), cash consideration given to customers or resellers, for which the Company does not receive a separately identifiable benefit or cannot reasonably estimate fair value, are accounted for as a reduction of revenue rather than as an expense.
Cash consideration includes discounts and other offers that entitle a customer to receive a reduction in the price of a product. For the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized $33,585 and $465,520, respectively, as a reduction of revenue for the discount offered to its customers.
Goodwill
In accordance with ASC 805 Business Combination (formerly SFAS No.141, Business Combination), the total purchase price in a business combination is allocated to their fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values at the acquisition date, with amounts exceeding the fair values at the acquisition date being recorded as goodwill. In accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (formerly SFAS No.142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets), goodwill is not amortized. Instead, it is tested for impairment on an accrual basis or more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill may be impaired. For the period ended March 31, 2010, the Company did not identify any potential impairment related to its goodwill.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, ASC 810-10-65, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements (formerly SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB 51) changes the accounting and reporting for minority interests. Minority interests will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and will be reported as a component of equity separate from the parent’s equity, and purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in a change in control will be accounted for as equity transactions. In addition, net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement and, upon a loss of control, the interest sold, as well as any interest retained, will be recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in earnings. The adoption of ASC 810-10-65 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In April 2009, the FASB approved ASC 820-10-65-4 (formerly FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly and FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment).
ASC 820-10-65-4 provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with ASC 820 when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. ASC 820-10-65-4 also includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. We are required to adopt this FSP for our interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. This FSP does not require disclosures for periods presented for comparative purposes at initial adoption. This FSP requires comparative disclosures only for periods ending after initial adoption.
In March 2008, the FASB issued ASC 815, Derivative and Hedging, (formerly SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities), which expands disclosures to include information about the fair value of derivatives, related credit risks and a company’s strategies and objectives for using derivatives. The adoption of ASC 815 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In June 2008, the FASB issued ASC 815-10-65-3, Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock (formerly EITF No. 07-05, Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock), which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. ASC 815-10-65-3 clarifies the determination of whether an instrument (or an embedded feature) is indexed to an entity's own stock, which would qualify as a scope exception under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (formerly SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities). ASC 815-10-65-3 was effective for the financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009. The Company adopted ASC 815-10-65-3 and determined that no balance sheet reclassifications were necessary.
In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 825-10-65, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments, (formerly FSP FAS 107-1 and ABP 28-1, Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments), which requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim and annual reporting periods. The adoption of ASC 825-10-65 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In April 2009, the FASB issued ASC 320-10-65-1, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments (formerly FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments), which amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance in U.S. GAAP for debt securities to make the guidance more operational and to modify the presentation and disclosure of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. The adoption of ASC 320-10-65-1 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In May 2009, the FASB issued ASC 855, Subsequent Events (formerly SFAS 165, Subsequent Events), which establishes accounting and disclosure requirements for events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. ASC 855 requires disclosure of the date through which the Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition or disclosure. ASC 855 also requires events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet and the related estimates to be recognized in the financial statements. Events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or available to be issued should not be recognized, but should be disclosed if material. The adoption of ASC 855 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued FAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“FAS 167”). FAS 167 amends FASB 46(R) to require an enterprise to perform an analysis and ongoing reassessments to determine whether the enterprises variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity and amends certain guidance for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity. It also requires enhanced disclosures that will provide users of financial statements with more transparent information about an enterprises involvement in a variable interest entity. FAS 167 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009 and for all interim reporting periods after that and is not anticipated to have any material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of FAS 167. This recently issued but not yet enacted accounting standard has not been codified by the FASB. See Note 1.
In October 2009, the FASB’s EITF revised its guidance on Revenue Recognition for Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. The revised guidance will enable companies to separately account for multiple revenue-generating activities (deliverables) that they perform for their customers.
Existing U.S. GAAP requires a company to use VSOE or third party evidence of selling price to separate deliverables in a multiple-deliverable arrangement. The revised guidance will allow the use of an estimated selling price, if neither VSOE nor third-party evidence is available. The revised guidance will require additional disclosures of information about an entity’s multiple-deliverable arrangements. The requirements of the revised guidance may be applied prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the update on its financial position and results of operations and does not plan to early or retroactively adopt the new guidance.
In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The guidance requires disclosure of transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value measurement hierarchy, including the reasons and the timing of the transfers and information on purchases, sales, issuance, and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of the assets and liabilities measured under Level 3 of the fair value measurement hierarchy. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning March 1, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption will have an impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB updated guidance related to fair-value measurements to clarify the guidance related to measuring fair-value in inactive markets, to modify the recognition and measurement of other-than-temporary impairments of debt securities, and to require public companies to disclose the fair values of financial instruments in interim periods. This updated guidance became effective for the Company beginning June 1, 2009. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. See Note 5 - Fair Value Measurements for the disclosure required under the updated guidance.

Revenues
The Company’s consolidated revenues were $670,232 for the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010, which represents a $3,421,375 or 84% decrease from $4,091,607 for the three (3) months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease was primarily the result of a decline in our online advertising income and software development income.

Online insurance advertising revenue decreased by 75%, or $2,014,132, to $658,280 during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010 from $2,672,412 during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease is due to the fact that we were temporarily unable to obtain purchase orders from certain insurance agencies and insurance serving companies during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010. Purchase orders from the insurance agencies and insurance serving companies during the first part of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010 have increased compared with the purchase orders we received during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010 and we expect that our business will resume to normal levels during the next few fiscal quarters.
Software development revenues decreased by $1,318,585, or 100%, to $0 during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010 from $1,318,585 during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2009. This significant decrease was primarily due to the fact that we were temporarily unable to obtain purchase orders from certain customers in our software development market during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010. We expect that our business will resume to normal levels during the next few fiscal quarters.
Revenue from our insurance agency services during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010 decreased by $95,910, or 95%, to $4,700 from $100,610 during the same period in 2009. This decrease is mainly due to the fact that we were temporarily unable to obtain purchase orders from certain insurance agencies and insurance serving companies during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010. Purchase orders from the insurance agencies and insurance serving companies during the first part of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010 have increased compared with the purchase orders we received during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010 and we expect that our business will resume to normal levels during the next few fiscal quarters.
Cost of Sales
The Company’s consolidated cost of sales (“COS”) during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010 increased by $73,228, or 19%, from $390,206 or 10% of our net revenues to $463,434 or 69% of net revenues. This increase is primarily attributable to the significant increase in amortization of $402,282, or 100%, due to amortization of the application software for revenue earning activities that occurred during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010.

Gross Profit
The Company’s consolidated gross profit during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010 decreased by $3,392,712, or 94%, to $206,798 from $3,599,510 during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease is attributable to the significant decrease in revenue and also increase in amortization of our software system.
Selling Expenses
Selling expenses decreased by $57,969 or 93%, to $4,113 for the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $62,082 for the three (3) months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease is primarily attributable to our efforts of reducing operating costs and reducing employee headcount in order to maintain our competitiveness in a turbulent market.

Advertising Expenses
No advertising and promotion expenses were incurred during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $90, or 1% of our net revenue, during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2009. This 100% decrease is attributable to the suspension of our advertising and promotion campaign during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010 in light of the global financial crisis and our belief that such campaign would not have yielded a significant improvement in sales.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses were $283,024, or 42% of our net revenues, during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to $558,814, or 14% of our net revenues, during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease of $275,790 or 49% is mainly attributable to the decrease of amortization of our software system, which was classified into COS during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010, and the decrease in the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Legal and professional fees were a major component of our G&A expenses, representing 29% and 16% of our total G&A expenses during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Legal and professional fees decreased by $5,384, or 6%, during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010. This decrease was due to the decrease in reimbursement expenses from the professional.
Interest Income (Expense), Net
Net interest expense during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010 was $17, which represents a $1,465 or 101% decrease from $1,448 of net interest income during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2009.

Income taxes during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010 decreased by $761,039, or 97%, to $24,739 from $785,778 during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease is attributable to the decrease in the operating income of the Company during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010.
Net (Loss) Income
Net loss for the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010 was $105,095, which represents a $2,299,289 or 105% decrease from $2,194,194 of net income during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease is attributable to the decrease in the operating income of the Company during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010.

Our insurance agency revenue for the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010 decreased by $95,910, or 95%, to $4,700 from $100,610 during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease is due to the fact that we were temporarily unable to obtain purchase orders from certain insurance agencies and insurance serving companies during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010. Purchase orders from the insurance agencies and insurance serving companies during the first part of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010 have increased compared with the purchase orders we received during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010 and we expect that our business will resume to normal levels during the next few fiscal quarters.
Revenue from our insurance agency business has been subject to business tax and levies during the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. The COS mainly consists of business tax and levies of 5.5% of gross revenue, net of returned commissions for cancelled policies, amounting to $266 for the three (3) months ended March 31, 2010, compared with $5,534 for the three (3) months ended March 31, 2009.
As the income from our insurance agency business has developed, the COS and GP ratios for both the three (3) months ended March31, 2010 and 2009 fluctuated.

Revenues
The Company’s consolidated revenues were $9,488,324 for the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010, which represents a $4,024,630 or 30% decrease from $13,512,954 for the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease was primarily the result of a decline in our online advertising income, offset by the increase in our software development income.

Online insurance advertising revenue decreased by 73%, or $7,194,221, to $2,596,156 during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010 from $9,790,377 during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease is due to the fact that we were temporarily unable to obtain purchase orders from certain insurance agencies and insurance serving companies during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010. Purchase orders from the insurance agencies and insurance serving companies during the first part of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010 have increased compared with the purchase orders we received during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010 and we expect that our business will resume to normal levels during the next few fiscal quarters.
Software development projects increased by $3,560,264, or 109%, to $6,815,157 during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010 from $3,254,893 during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2009. This significant increase was primarily due to our newly developed software packages that were successfully delivered and tested by our customers during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010.
Revenue from our insurance agency services during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010 decreased by $401,208, or 86%, to $ 66,476 from $467,684 during the same period in 2009. This decrease is mainly due to the fact that we were temporarily unable to obtain purchase orders from certain insurance agencies and insurance serving companies during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010. Purchase orders from the insurance agencies and insurance serving companies during the first part of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010 have increased compared with the purchase orders we received during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010 and we expect that our business will resume to normal levels during the next few fiscal quarters.
Cost of Sales
The Company’s consolidated cost of sales (“COS”) during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010 increased by $513,213, or 43%, from $1,182,668 or 9% of our net revenues to $1,695,881 or 18% of net revenues. This increase is primarily attributable to the significant increase in amortization of $1,023,039, or 100%, due to amortization of the application software for revenue earning activities that occurred during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010.

General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses were $956,286, or 10% of our net revenues, during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to $1,299,047, or 10% of our net revenues, during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2009. This decrease of $342,761 or 26% is mainly attributable to the decrease of amortization of our software system, which was classified into COS during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010, and the decrease in the allowance for doubtful accounts.

This decrease is due to the fact that we were temporarily unable to obtain purchase orders from certain insurance agencies and insurance serving companies during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010. Purchase orders from the insurance agencies and insurance serving companies during the first part of the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2010 have increased compared with the purchase orders we received during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010 and we expect that our business will resume to normal levels during the next few fiscal quarters.
Revenue from our insurance agency business has been subject to business tax and levies during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009. The COS mainly consists of business tax and levies of 5.5% of gross revenue, net of returned commissions for cancelled policies, amounting to $3,797 for the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010, compared with $27,737 for the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2009.
As the income from our insurance agency business has developed, the COS and GP ratios for both the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 fluctuated.

Except for business tax and levies, amortization was a major component of COS for the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010. As we commenced our usage of our new application software, amortization on such software was charged to COS.

Administration revenues included the inter-company service income from ZYTX to NFA and non-recurring supporting services to customers. The inter-company service income from ZYTX to NFA was eliminated in consolidation. Under relevant PRC tax laws, service income of NFA was subject to business tax and levies of 5.5% on revenue, which was recognized as a COS of administration.
Material Commitments
Lease Commitments
The Company occupies office spaces leased from third parties. For the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company recognized $86,846 and $252,499, respectively, as rental expense for these spaces. As of March 31, 2010, the Company has outstanding commitments with respect to non-cancelable operating leases as follows:

July 31, 2010 | | | 40,000 | |
August 31, 2010 | | | 30,000 | |
| | | 70,000 | |
The Company subsequently approved a restructuring plan on May 18, 2010, which might lead to a sales of the Company's Subsidiaries NFA and ZYTX. The right of receiving the electronic products is included in ZYTX and might eventually sale to potential buyer.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2010, the Company had $417,153 in bank deposits with a bank in China, which constituted approximately 98.7% of its total cash and cash equivalents.
Set forth below is a summary of our Statement of Cash Flows during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010:

Cash flows used in operating activities during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010 were equal to $480,514, representing a decrease of $9,853,629 or 105%, as compared with cash flows provided by operating activities of $9,373,115 during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2009. The major decrease in cash flows from operating activities was primarily due to the prepayment for electronic products that will be inventoried upon receipt.
Cash flows used in investing activities was $724,082 during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010, which represented a decrease of $12,764,544 or 94%, as compared to $13,488,626 at March 31, 2009. This decrease is mainly attributable to our acquisition of GHIA during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2009.
For the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2010, cash provided by financing activities was $426,796, which represented an increase of $455,398, or 1,592%, as compared with cash flows used in financing activities of $28,602 during the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2009. This amount represented an advance from a director to the Company for operating expenses of the Company.
Liquidity
The primary source of liquidity had been cash generated from operations, which included cash inflows from currency translation activities. Historically, the primary liquidity requirements were for capital expenditures, working capital and investments. Our contractual obligations, commitments and debt service requirements over the next 12 months are shown below.
Taxation
Of the $8,321,743 of income taxes payable at March 31, 2010, $8,315,463 represents the amount of income taxes payable by NFA. Of the $8,315,463 of income taxes payable by NFA, $4,508,167 was due on April 30, 2009 and $3,807,296 was due on April 30, 2010. The Company has been negotiating with the tax authorities to defer the payment of CIT due on April 30, 2009 and April 30, 2010 without interest or penalties, and the Company is awaiting the final ruling from the tax authorities.
Of the $2,719,834 of business tax payable at March 31, 2010, $1,495,788 was due on April 30, 2009 and $1,224,046 was due on April 30, 2010. The Company has been negotiating with the tax authorities to defer the payment of business tax which was due on April 30, 2009 and April 30, 2010 without interest or penalties, and the Company is awaiting the final ruling from the tax authorities.
If the response from the tax authorities is adverse, the Company may have a shortage of working capital and may need additional funding to maintain its operations.
Commitments
As of March 31, 2010, the Company had outstanding commitments equal to $43,885 (Rmb300,000) with respect to the purchase of electronic products of $20,479,514 (Rmb140,000,000) due within one year and the details are stated in the “Material Commitments” subsection above.
If the Company is unable to fulfill its contractual commitment to purchase electronic products, this would cause a loss on prepayments made.
On Januray 8, 2010, Mr. Zhengyu Wang, a significant shareholder, entered into a loan agreement with Argyll Investments, LLC, and pledged 2,000,000 common stock of the Company under his name to secure a personal loan of $554,400 at interest rate of 4% per annum. The loan is repayable with 36 months.
On February 16, 2010, Mr. Zhengyu Wang, a significant shareholder, entered into a loan agreement with Argyll Investments, LLC, and pledged 2,000,000 common stock of the Company under his name to secure a personal loan of $705,600 at interest rate of 4% per annum. The loan is repayable with 36 months.
Our primary source of liquidity will continue to be cash generated from operations as well as existing cash on hand. We may look for to our credit facilities to assist, if required, in meeting our working capital needs and other contractual obligations.
Our current cash and cash equivalents and cash generated from operations may not satisfy our expected working capital and other requirements for the foreseeable future based on our current business strategy and expansion plan. However, we believe we will have available resources to meet our short-term liquidity requirements.
As of March 31, 2010, all of our capital is equity capital and we have not made any debt financing with any bank or other financial institutions. We believe our capital is sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve (12) months. As for our business development, the Company may consider raising additional funds for the following future business plans if conditions are suitable:
· | To expand our operations in different cities in the PRC; |
· | To acquire companies which would add value to our business expansion; |
· | To expand our online insurance sales supermarket; and |
· | To acquire equipment to continually upgrade the existing network portal hardware environment and to strengthen its network security inputs. |
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK.
The Company is exposed to certain market risks in the ordinary course of business. The Company may enter into derivative financial instrument transactions to manage or reduce market risk. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instrument transactions for trading purposes. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. A discussion of the Company’s primary market risk exposure and credit risk is presented below.
The Company has $316,227 and $1,207,171 in bank deposits in the banks in China, which constitutes about 98.9% and 99.9% of its total cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively. Historically, deposits in Chinese banks are secured due to the state policy on protecting depositors’ interests. However, China promulgated a new Bankruptcy Law in August 2006, which came into effect on June 1, 2007. The new Bankruptcy Law contains a separate article expressly stating that the State Council may promulgate implementation measures for the bankruptcy of Chinese banks. Under the new Bankruptcy Law, a Chinese bank may go bankrupt. In addition, since China’s concession to World Trade Organization, foreign banks have been gradually permitted to operate in China and have been severe competitors against Chinese banks in many aspects, especially since the opening of RMB businesses to foreign banks in late 2006.
Therefore, the risk of bankruptcy of the bank in which that the Company has deposits has increased. In the event of bankruptcy of the bank which holds the Company’s deposits, the Company is unlikely to recover its deposits back in full since it is unlikely to be classified as a secured creditor based on PRC laws.
As of March 31, 2010, accounts receivable consist primarily of insurance agency of 100%. As of June 30, 2009, accounts receivable consist primarily of software development clients and insurance agents of online insurance advertising, approximately 15% and 84%, respectively. Regarding the Company’s online advertising and insurance agency operations, no individual customer accounted for more than 10% of total net revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2010 and year ended June 30, 2009.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, principally our chief financial officer and chief executive officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report in order to determine whether the information required to be disclosed by us in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were not effective. We have identified as a material weakness in that there is a lack of sufficient accounting staff at the Company which results in a lack of effective controls which are necessary for a good system of internal control over financial reporting.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) for the Company. Although there were no changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, management had assessed its controls for its financial reporting as of June 30, 2009 and had identified the following material weaknesses, which continue to exist as of March 31, 2010:
There is a weakness on the control of the financial statements closing system. This resulted primarily from the fact that certain parts of the work of our accounting staff may not be monitored or reviewed correctly.
As a result of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2009 was not effective based on the criteria set forth by COSO in Internal Control – Integrated Framework. A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Management’s Plan for Remediation of Material Weaknesses
In light of the conclusion that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective, our management is in the process of implementing a plan intended to remediate such ineffectiveness and to strengthen our internal controls over financial reporting through the implementation of certain remedial measures, which include:
| - | Improving the control and oversight of the duties relating to the systems we use in the evaluation and processing of certain accounts and areas in the posting and recording of journal entries into certain accounts (in which material weaknesses have been identified as described above). This improvement should include reviews by management of the accounting processes as well as a reorganization of some of the accounting functions. |
| - | The segregation of duties relating to the preparation of financial statements and the reviewing of financial statements in the reporting controls. |
We will begin implementing additional oversight and review of certain accounts and postings, and also financial reporting on or before June 30, 2010.

As of September 30, 2009, there was no such outstanding litigation.
