Item 1. Business
General - The Company
Heng Fai China Industries, Inc. (the "Company") was originally
organized on March 24, 1958 as Time Saver Markets, Inc. pursuant to the laws of
the State of California. On October 29, 1973, Alpine International Corporation,
a private Oregon corporation, merged with and into Time Saver Markets, Inc.
Subsequent thereto, Time Saver Markets, Inc. changed its name to Alpine
International Corporation. In August 1994, Alpine International Corporation
changed its name to Alpine Merger Corporation ("Alpine-California") after having
entered into a merger agreement with a Delaware corporation named Alpine
International Corporation ("Alpine-Delaware") which was formed for the purpose
of facilitating the reincorporation of Alpine-California in the State of
Delaware through a merger with and into Alpine-Delaware. Subsequently, in
November 1994, Alpine-Delaware changed its name to Heng Fai China Industries,
Inc. Alpine-California and Alpine-Delaware may be collectively referred to
hereinafter as "Alpine."
Alpine conducted no significant operations between April 1992, when it
emerged from reorganization under Chapter 11 of Title II of the U.S. Bankruptcy
Code, and June 1994, when it acquired Vancouver Hong Kong Properties Limited
("Vancouver Hong Kong") which owns an apartment building in North Vancouver,
British Columbia. In connection therewith, Alpine obtained equity financing of
US$120,000 and issued 258,943 shares of its common stock (the "Common Stock")
and 258,943 common stock purchase warrants, which are exercisable through
September 2, 1999 at an exercise price of US$3.20 per share (the "Warrants"). In
addition, concurrent therewith, the Company also issued 37,500 shares of Common
Stock and 37,500 Common Stock Purchase Warrants. The foregoing share and per
share numbers reflect the effects of a one-for-four and a one-for-ten reverse
stock split undertaken by the Company subsequent to the acquisition of Vancouver
Hong Kong. See Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
included elsewhere herein.
In January 1995, the Company acquired its wholly-owned subsidiary, Heng
Fai China & Asia Industries Limited ("Asia"), a company incorporated in Hong
Kong, along with Asia's two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Heng Fai China Industries
Limited ("China") and Heng Fai Light Products Limited ("Light"). China and Light
were incorporated in Hong Kong and the Peoples' Republic of China (the "PRC"),
respectively. China and Light, through China's wholly-owned subsidiary, Cangzhou
Min You Cement Company, Ltd. (formerly Cangzhou Citizen Cement Product Co., Ltd.
and referred to hereinafter as "Min You") obtained the rights to acquire direct
or joint venture operating lease interests for three cement factories in the
Hebei province of the PRC: (i) the Hebei Cangzhou City Chemical Corporation
Factory (the "Cangzhou Factory"); (ii) the Qingxian Cement Factory (the
"Qingxian Factory"); and (iii) the Hebei Cangzhou Area Construction Materials
Factory (the "Hebei Factory"). See Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated
Financial Statements included elsewhere herein.
1
On April 17, 1995, Min You exercised its option to lease a production
line at the Cangzhou Factory. From April through June 1995, Min You suspended
its operations at the Cangzhou Factory to facilitate the Company's expansion and
modernization of such factory as required pursuant to the provisions of the
agreement governing the Company's exercise of its options. Operations at the
factory resumed at the end of June 1995 upon completion of the expansion and
modernization of such factory. As of December 31, 1995, neither the Company nor
its subsidiaries had exercised the options to acquire the interests in the
Qingxian Factory or the Hebei Factory, which options expired unexercised. See
Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere
herein.
The Business
The Company's business consists primarily of operation by Min You of
the Cangzhou Factory and operation of the apartment building in North Vancouver,
British Columbia. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" in Item 7 below.
The Cement Industry
The cement industry in the PRC consists of over 7,000 small, medium and
large cement plants. Most of the cement plants in the PRC are small, use
relatively old technology, have an average production scale of less than 50,000
tons per year and supply a customer market located within close proximity.
Historically, the cement industry in the PRC developed around the concept of
cement plants utilizing vertical kiln technology imported from Eastern Europe
and the former Soviet Union. The manufacturing of cement involves the following:
(i) the quarrying of raw materials; (ii) the crushing, grinding and blending of
these raw materials into either a powder (the "dry process") or a mud-like
mixture of slurry (the "wet process"); (iii) the burning of raw material mix in
kilns to produce pellets called "clinker"; and (iv) the grinding of the clinker
with gypsum and other products, such as slag from steel mills, to produce
cement. The "burning" phase is the key phase of production and is primarily
responsible for the quality of the cement. The "burning" phase consumes most of
the fuels used in the production of cement, while the "grinding" of the raw
materials and production of "clinker" consumes most of the electricity used in
the production of cement. The type of production process, "wet process" or "dry
process", determines the type and design characteristics of the kiln. Vertical
kiln and rotary kiln technologies are employed in the manufacturing of cement
products. Vertical kiln is an older technology that utilizes the "dry process"
of cement production. When technology transfers from Eastern Europe and the
former Soviet Union were restricted in the late 1980s, the PRC was forced to
develop its own technology. The PRC continued to utilize vertical kilns, largely
due to their: (i) lower investment costs; (ii) simplicity of design, shorter
construction time and production goals; and (iii) relatively less sophisticated
technological requirements.
As the cement industry in the PRC matures and demand for higher grade
cement increases, the Company believes that there will be a greater shift to
rotary kiln technology because vertical kilns are not expected to be able to
satisfy significantly increased demand.
2
Rotary kiln technology is able to use the "wet process", "dry process" or a
combination for the production of cement. Rotary kilns can be built to any
desired capacity and are capable to replace multiple vertical kilns with a
single production line. It is uncertain how long it will be before vertical
kilns are replaced by more technologically modern kilns, such as rotary kilns.
Factors which limit the shift to rotary kiln technology include the difficulty
in obtaining the necessary capital to acquire rotary kiln technology and
equipment, the paucity of technical expertise in the PRC necessary to operate
and maintain rotary kilns, and the poor infrastructure in the PRC which inhibits
the ability to distribute the volume of products necessary to justify the higher
investment. The Company believes that vertical kilns will most likely continue
to be used in the PRC for the foreseeable future.
Cement in the PRC is categorized on the basis of its compressive
strength so that, for example, #425 cement has a minimum strength of 425kg/cm2.
The common grades of cement include #325, #425, #525 and #625. In the PRC: #325
is commonly used for basic construction with long fixation periods and minimal
weight requirements, such as plastering; #425 is commonly used for buildings of
up to 20 to 30 stories (depending on each building's specifications); bridges
and city roads; #525 is commonly used for infrastructure projects, such as
airports, railways and highways and for buildings requiring stronger cement than
#425; and #625 is commonly used for specialized purposes such as providing
support for certain structures such as power plants and where extremely quick
fixation times are necessary. The term "higher grades of cement" generally refer
to grades for #425 cement or above.
Vertical kiln technology is employed by Min You and only cement #325 is
produced there.
Cement Customers
All cement production by Min You at the Cangzhou Factory is #325
cement, accounting for 100% of the cement sales in Fiscal 1995. Products are
primarily sold to over 5 distributors (approximately 50% of the cement sales in
Fiscal 1995). The balance of sales are made directly to end-users, such as
framers or small-size developers located in the Hebei Province, PRC. In 1995,
NamDaguang No. 1 Building Materials Company, Limited was the largest customer of
Min You, representing approximately 23% of total cement sales. However, the
amount of sales to each customer may vary from quarter to quarter depending upon
the customer's particular construction activities or, in case of distributors,
those of its customers. Min You has resisted entering into fixed price sales
contracts due to its expectation that cement prices will continue to escalate
for as long as demand exceeds supply.
Real Estate
The apartment building operated by the Company is located within the
Central Lonsdale area of the City of North Vancouver, British Columbia.
Developments in the immediate area consist primarily of low to medium density
residential units, with commercial development focused along Lonsdale Avenue to
the west and the more prominent cross streets such as 13th
3
Street and 15th Street. Loins Gate Hospital, a principal medical facility, is
located just north of the apartment building at the intersection of East 13th
Street and St. George Avenue.
The Central Lonsdale corridor serves as the primary commercial centre
for the city and the surrounding areas of North Vancouver. Residential
development in the surrounding areas consist of a variety of 3-story rental and
strata tiled apartments, plus lower density townhouse developments. The area
also has signs of higher density development spotted throughout the area.
Thus, the apartment building is located within a desirable and stable
multiple residential oriented neighborhood, located in close proximity to local
retail, recreational and public amenities.
The following information has been extracted from the Canada Mortgage
Housing Corporation's ("CMHC") Vancouver CMA Rental Market Report.

The apartment building improvements in North Vancouver consist of a
three story wood frame rental apartment building constructed in the late 1960's.
The building has a below grade basement containing the mechanical rooms, various
storage rooms, workshops and recreational areas.
The apartment building has a total of 60 suites consisting of one
bachelor suite, 38 one bedroom suites and 21 two bedroom suites. Twelve of the
two bedroom suites located on the corners of the building offer wood burning
fireplaces. The suites are generally larger than
4
average and on the whole, have been well maintained. General finishing details
include hardwood floors or wall-to-wall carpeting with vinyl flooring in the
kitchens and bathrooms, adequate cabinet/counter space in the kitchens with two
appliances, partly tiled shower surrounds in the bathrooms and covered balconies
or patios.
Paved open parking for 60 vehicles is provided at the rear of the
apartment building. Access/egress is available by a paved rear service lane off
St. Andrews Avenue.
Overall, the property provides well maintained rental accommodations,
consistent with the quality of other projects located within the general area.
The roof was replaced in 1992. Since then, there has been no major upgrading,
but day to day maintenance as required.
Market Rental Rates:
- --------------------
The current monthly rents* are as follows:
SUITE TYPE MONTHLY RENT
Bachelor CDN$540
One Bedroom CDN$600-$665
Two Bedroom CDN$745-$800
-------------------
* Rent includes heat, hot water, parking and cablevision.
By way of comparison, average apartment rents in the City of North
Vancouver and surrounding District of North Vancouver were as follows, based on
the CMHC Rental Market Survey:

The above survey would tend to support the conclusion that the monthly
rents within the subject are reasonably in line with market rents, taking into
account the size and condition of the units plus the inclusions in the monthly
rent.

Employees
The Company currently employs approximately 146 persons, 4 of whom are
in management, 2 of whom oversee operation of the apartment building in North
Vancouver, British Columbia and 140 of whom are employed full time at Min You
(29 of such employees are in management). Pursuant to the articles of
association governing the activities of Min You pursuant to the laws of Hong
Kong, the employees at such factory have established a trade union to protect
the rights of the employees. The Company believes that its relationship with its
employees at Min You are good and that establishment of the trade union
facilitates the fulfillment of the economic goals of Min You and provides
effective assistance in resolution through mediation of disputes between those
employees in management of Min You and the other employees at the factory.
Government Regulation
The Company is not aware of any governmental regulations in the United
States which materially adversely affect its business or operations in the
United States. The Company's participation in operation of Min You is subject to
significant governmental regulation in Hong Kong and the Company believes it is
in compliance with such regulations to the extent the same are applicable to the
Company.
Item 2. Description of Property
The apartment building which the Company operates in Vancouver is
composed of 60 individual residential units in a three story frame building
situated at the corner of East 12th Street and St. Andrews Avenue in North
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The apartment building consists of
approximately 57,340 square feet and is situated on approximately 1.109 acres of
land. The apartment building is owned by the Company, subject to first and
second mortgages. The land underlying the apartment building is leased pursuant
to a lease which terminates on May 31, 2032, subject to earlier termination in

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Introduction
The Company was originally incorporated in 1958, and until June 1994,
had been engaged in businesses other than those it presently operates, or, since
its April 1992 emergence from reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S.
Bankruptcy code, had been inactive.
In June 1994, the Company (which was operating under the name Alpine)
completed the acquisition of and merger with Vancouver Hong Kong, pursuant to
which the Company acquired 100 percent of the ownership of Vancouver Hong Kong
in exchange for the issuance of 258,943 shares of Common Stock and 258,943
Warrants exercisable through September 2, 1999 at a price of US$3.20 per share.
Concurrently, the Company issued 37,500 shares of common stock, 37,500 Warrants
exercisable through September 2, 1999 and received cash proceeds of US$120,000.
The foregoing share and per share numbers reflect the effects of a one-for-four
and a one-for-ten reverse stock split undertaken by the Company subsequent to
the acquisition of Vancouver Hong Kong.
The Company's acquisition of Vancouver Hong Kong was accounted for as a
reverse acquisition. As a result, for accounting purposes, Vancouver Hong Kong
was deemed to have acquired the Company, and is the continuing accounting
entity. Therefore, the results of operations and cash flows presented in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements for the periods prior to June
1994 are those of Vancouver Hong Kong.
Vancouver Hong Kong owns and operates an apartment building in North
Vancouver, British Columbia, and until June 1995 the Company's operations were
comprised of that single segment. As described in Note 1 of the Notes to the
Consolidated Financial Statements, in January 1995, the Company acquired from
Fai Chan (an officer, director and principal stockholder of the Company) the
ownership of 100% of the common stock of Asia and Asia's wholly-owned
subsidiaries, China and Light. Light, through its subsidiary Min You, obtained
the right to acquire the use, for a period of five years commencing January 1,
1995, of a production line at Min You in the PRC. Min You was entitled to lease
the production line for five years by expending Renmibi ("RMB"), the currency of
the PRC, RMB1.2 million on the expansion and modernization of Min You. The
option was exercised and the required RMB1.2 million was expended in fiscal
1995, and beginning in June 1995 the Company's operations included a second
business segment, the production and sale of cement.

Results of Operations
Year Ended December 31, 1995 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1994
Revenues for the year ended December 31, 1995 increased to US$633,574
from US$333,319 for the year ended December 31, 1994, principally the result of
the revenues derived in the second half of fiscal 1995 from the Company's cement
operation.
The Company's net loss for fiscal 1995 was US$1,972,726, a change of
US$2,000,041 compared to net income of US$27,315 for fiscal 1994. The increase
in the net loss was due to: (i) the operating loss for the cement segment; and
(ii) higher general corporate expenses. The following table sets forth the
components of the fiscal 1995 and 1994 net losses:
1995 1994
------------- -----------
Operating Profit (Loss)
Rental Operations $ 110,608 $125,119
Cement Operations (75,107) --
Investments (52,612) --
General Corporate Expenses (1,833,233) (18,639)
Interest Expense (105,435) (79,165)
----------- --------
$(1,955,779) $ 27,315
=========== ========
The operating profit for the Company's North Vancouver, British
Columbia property decreased by US$14,511 due to increased operating costs.
The Company's cement operations incurred an operating loss of US$75,107
in fiscal 1995, comprised of the following:
Sales $ 278,622
Cost of Sales (235,711)
Rental (14,418)
Salaries (11,185)
Bad Debts (48,420)
Other (43,995)
---------
$ (75,107)
=========
For the months of June through December 1995, the leased production
line operated at less than full capacity while the modernization of the Cangzhou
Factory was completed. As a result, Min You's sales and gross profit margin in
1995 were lower than the levels management believes can be achieved under normal
operating conditions. Management believes that under normal operating
conditions, Min You's sales and gross profit margin should be sufficient to
recover its other operating costs.
10
During fiscal 1995 the Company purchased shares of the common stock of
three companies traded on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited. As of
December 31, 1995, the quoted market price of the shares are, in the aggregate,
US$43,941 less than their initial costs. The securities are classified as
available for sale and, accordingly, the decline in their market value has been
charged directly to stockholders' equity as a separate component thereof.
General corporate expenses increased in fiscal 1995 by US$1,814,594 as
the result of consulting fees of US$1,620,433, and a US$110,251 increase in
legal, professional and audit fees. The consulting fees relate to an agreement
the Company entered into in June 1995 for investor relations and financial
advisory services (see Note 7 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements). Legal and professional fees increased in fiscal 1995 for expenses
related to the Company's commencement of new business activities through
investments in the PRC.
Year Ended December 31, 1994 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 1993
The Company's operations during fiscal 1994 and fiscal 1993 were
comprised solely of the operation of the North Vancouver, British Columbia,
property. Net income for fiscal 1994 of US$27,315 represented a US$71,137 change
from the fiscal 1993 net loss of US$43,822 due to a decrease in interest
expense, which resulted from the amortization of the mortgage principal and a
decline in interest rates and a foreign exchange gain. Revenues and expenses
other than interest expense, did not fluctuate significantly between fiscal 1994
and fiscal 1993.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Operating cash flows for fiscal 1995 were a negative US$365,018, due
principally to the operations of the company's cement production segment. The
Company financed the negative fiscal 1995 operating cash flow from: (i) cash on
hand at the end of fiscal 1995 of US$191,731; (ii) proceeds of US$334,540
obtained from margin and other short-term borrowings; and (iii) US$300,000
obtained from the sale of shares of its common stock. The cash on hand at the
end of fiscal 1994 was the result of the sale of shares of common stock during
fiscal 1994 for proceeds of US$220,000.
As discussed in Note 2 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements, the Company's operating losses and net asset deficiency raise
substantial doubts concerning the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern. However, the Company's principal shareholder has agreed to continue to
provide the Company with necessary financial support.
A significant portion of the Company's current operations are conducted
in the PRC and its expenses are paid and revenues received in RMB. Prior to
1994, the foreign currency exchange system in the PRC functioned as a two-tiered
system with different effective exchange rates for the purchase or sale of RMB.
Reforms enacted in 1994 have had the effect of essentially replacing the
two-tiered system with a single exchange system which functions on exchange
rates for the RMB against the Hong Kong Dollar, and against other major
currencies, set by the People's Bank of China on the basis of inter-bank
exchange rates.
11
Additionally, prior to 1994, there was significant volatility in the
exchange rate between the RMB and the Hong Kong Dollar. The exchange rate
between the RMB and the Hong Kong Dollar has been relatively stable since 1994,
and the PRC government has stated its intentions to intervene, when necessary,
to maintain such stability. However, there can be no assurance that such support
will in fact occur, or that the exchange rate will not fluctuate and cause a
loss in the value of the RMB.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
To the shareholders and
Board of Directors of
Heng Fai China Industries, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Heng
Fai China Industries, Inc. (the "Company") and subsidiaries as of December 31,
1995 and 1994 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in
shareholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 1995. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Heng Fai China
Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the
results of their operations and cash flows for each of the three years in the
period ended December 31, 1995 in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that
the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the
financial statements, the Company's recurring loss from operations and
deficiency in net tangible assets raise doubt about its ability to continue as a
going concern.The financial support from the shareholder is described in Note 2.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(United States Dollars)
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In June 1994, Heng Fai China Industries, Inc., then known as Alpine
International Corporation ("Alpine") entered into a business combination with
Vancouver Hong Kong Properties Limited ("Vancouver Hong Kong"), which owns and
operates a residential rental property in North Vancouver, British Columbia. The
business combination resulted in the shareholders of Vancouver Hong Kong being
issued 10,357,700 shares of common stock (the "Common Stock") and 10,357,700
common stock purchase warrants (the "Warrants") of Alpine. As a part of the
business combination a company related to Vancouver Hong Kong agreed to
subscribe for 1,500,000 shares of Common Stock and 1,500,000 common stock
purchase warrants for an aggregate of US$120,000 in cash. The foregoing share
numbers are before the effects of the Company's subsequent one-for-four reverse
stock split and a one-for-ten reverse stock split. The business combination was
accounted for as a reverse acquisition whereby the purchase method of accounting
was used with Vancouver Hong Kong being the accounting parent. Accordingly,
results of operations for periods prior to the reverse acquisition are those of
Vancouver Hong Kong, and the results of Alpine's operations are included only
from the date of such reverse acquisition. Subsequent to the business
combination the name of the legal parent Alpine was changed to Heng Fai China
Industries Inc. (the "Company").
On January 9, 1995, the Company acquired from Fai H. Chan, an officer,
director and stockholder of the Company, 100% of the common stock of Heng Fai
China & Asia Industries, Limited ("Asia") in exchange for nominal consideration.
Asia's wholly-owned subsidiaries, Heng Fai China Industries Limited ("China")
and Heng Fai Light Products Limited ("Light"), had options to acquire lease
interests or ownership interests in an operating joint venture with independent
parties to manufacture cement in the People's Republic of China (the "PRC").
Asia, China and Light did not have any material assets and liabilities at the
time of this acquisition by the Company.
Light, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Cangzhou Min You Cement
Company Limited (formerly known as Cangzhou Citizen Cement Product Co., Ltd. and
referred to hereinafter as "Min You") exercised its option to enter into a
lease, for a period of five years commencing January 1, 1995, of a production
line at the Hebei Cangzhou City Chemical Corporation Factory (the "Cangzhou
Factory"). Min You was entitled to lease the production line for five years for
a rental of RMB1.2 million (US$144,288) payable through expenditures to renovate
and modernize Min You. The expenditures were made in fiscal 1995 and the
resulting prepaid rental is being amortized over the five year term of the
lease. Amortization was US$28,750 for fiscal 1995. At the initiation of the
Cangzhou Factory lease, the lessor furnished Min You with certain raw materials
and finished goods for US$91,415, which amount is payable, without interest, at
the expiration of the lease in December 1999.
F-7
HENG FAI CHINA INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(United States Dollars)
In addition to the foregoing option, China had an option to acquire an
interest in a joint venture, the Cangzhou Jiuhe Cement Co., Ltd. ("Jiuhe"),
which would acquire the use of the existing facilities of the Qingxian Cement
Factory for 30 years. In exchange for contributing RMB17 million (US$2,043,000)
for the expansion and modernization of the existing factory, China would be
entitled to 100% of the profits of the joint venture until China recovered its
contribution, and thereafter 70% of the profits of the joint venture. The
control of Jiuhe would be shared by China and the PRC government, which would
contribute a 30 year lease on the existing facilities for its interest. The
assets of the joint venture would revert to the PRC government at the
termination of the joint venture. China did not exercise the option, which
expired in fiscal 1995.
China also had an option to acquire an interest in a joint venture, the
Hebei Iron Lion Cement Co., Ltd. ("Hebei"), which would acquire the use of the
existing facilities of the Hebei Cangzhou Area Construction Materials Factory
for 30 years. In exchange for contributing RMB70 million (US$8,190,000) for the
expansion and modernization of the existing factory, China would be entitled to
100% of the profits of the joint venture until China recovered its contribution,
and thereafter 52% of the profits of the joint venture. The control of Hebei
would be shared by China and the PRC government, which would contribute a 30
year lease on the existing facilities for its interest. The assets of the joint
venture would revert to the PRC government at the termination of the joint
venture. China did not exercise the option, which expired in fiscal 1995.
Since the conditions of the joint venture contracts for Jiuhe and Hebei
have not been fulfilled, the contracts signed lapsed in accordance with the PRC
Joint Venture Law and regulations. Based on advice from the Company's PRC legal
adviser, the Company does not anticipate any further liabilities, including
legal and financial liabilities arising from the lapse of the option and joint
venture contracts signed for Jiuhe and Hebei.
2. CONTINUING OPERATIONS
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going
concern basis of accounting which assumes the Company will realize its assets
and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company is
currently operating at a loss and has a deficiency in net tangible assets.
Should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern it may be required
to realize its assets and settle its liabilities at amounts substantially
different from the current carrying values.
F-8
HENG FAI CHINA INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(United States Dollars)
The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on
continued financial support from its principal shareholder who has signed a
letter of financial support to the Company.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States. The following sets forth the significant accounting principles utilized
in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements:
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 the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.
The Company holds certain investments in marketable equity securities,
which are carried at fair value. Future changes in the market value of these
securities could materially affect the Company's financial position.
Risks of concentration -- As discussed in Note 1, the Company's
operations are comprised principally of the operation of a rental property in
North Vancouver, British Columbia, and of a cement production operation in the
PRC. As a result, changes in the economic environment in which either of these
operations exist, including changes in the cost or availability of labor or
materials, could have a material impact on the Company. See Note 14 for
information on the geographic location of the Company's accounts.
Principles of consolidation -- The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of Heng Fai China Industries, Inc. and all significant
subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been
eliminated.
Cash and cash equivalents -- Cash and cash equivalents include cash on
hand and short-term bank deposits.
Inventories -- Inventories relating to the Company's cement operations
are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the weighted average method) or
market. Cost includes material and conversion cost.
F-9
HENG FAI CHINA INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(United States Dollars)
Investment securities -- The Company has classified the marketable
equity securities it holds as available-for-sale. Accordingly, pursuant to
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 115 the securities are measured
at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of applicable taxes,
reported as a separate component of equity.
Depreciation and amortization of building and leasehold improvements --
Building and leasehold improvements are recorded at cost and depreciation is
provided as follows:
Building 5% declining balance
Leasehold improvements amortized over the term of the lease which
expires May 31, 2032 using the straight line
method
Foreign currency translation -- Financial statements of international
subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at each
balance sheet date for assets and liabilities and a weighted average exchange
rate for each period for revenue and expenses. Where the local currency is the
functional currency, translation adjustments are recorded as a separate
component of shareholders' equity. Where the U.S. dollar is the functional
currency, the financial statements of international subsidiaries are translated
at historical rates and translation adjustments are recorded in income.
Revenue recognition -- Sales of cement are recognized when merchandise
is shipped and title passes to the customer. Rental income is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the periods of the leases.
Income taxes -- Certain items are treated differently for financial
reporting purposes than for income tax purposes. Pursuant to the provision of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for
Income Taxes", deferred tax is provided, under the liability method, for the
resulting temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of
assets and liabilities, using the tax rates expected to be in effect when the
related temporary differences reverse.
Reclassifications -- Certain prior years' amount have been reclassified
to conform to current year presentation.

15. ESTIMATED FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following disclosure of the estimated fair value of financial
instruments is made in accordance with the requirements of the SFAS No. 107
"Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments". The estimated fair value
amounts have been determined by the Company, using available market information
and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgement is
necessarily required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of fair
value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily
indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market
exchange.
F-17
HENG FAI CHINA INDUSTRIES, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(United States Dollars)
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and short-term
borrowings and margin loan payable, are a reasonable estimate of their fair
value due to the short maturity of those instruments. The fair value for the
available for sale securities are based primarily on quoted market prices; such
securities are carried at fair value.
The fair value for the mortgages payable and long-term payable were
estimated based on the current rates available to the Company for debt of the
same remaining maturities. At December 31, 1995 mortgages payable and long-term
payable with book values of $975,108 and $91,415 had fair value of approximately
$807,688 and $53,237 respectively.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law empowers a
corporation to indemnify its directors and officers and to purchase insurance
with respect to liability arising out of their capacity or status as directors
and officers provided that this provision shall not eliminate of limit the
liability of a director: (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to
the corporation or its stockholders; (ii) for acts or omissions not in good
faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
(iii) arising under Section 174 of the Delaware general Corporation Law; or (iv)
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit. The Delaware General Corporation Law provides further that the
indemnification permitted thereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other
rights to which the directors and officers may be entitled under the
corporation's by-laws, any agreement, vote of shareholders or otherwise. The
Company's Certificate of Incorporation eliminates the personal liability of
directors to the fullest extent permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware
General Corporation Law.
The effect of the foregoing is to require the Company to indemnify the
officers and directors of the Company for any claim arising against such persons
in their official capacities if such person acted in good faith and in a manner
that he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the Company
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Company has been informed that in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore
unenforceable.
Committees of the Board of Directors
The Board of Directors has not established any committees.
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act of 1934
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"), requires the Company's officers and directors, and persons who
own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company's equity
securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership of equity
securities of the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") and NASDAQ. Officers, directors and greater-than-ten percent
stockholders are required by regulation to furnish the Company with copies of
all Section 16(a) forms that they file.
Based solely upon a review of Forms 3, Forms 4 and Forms 5 furnished to
the Company pursuant to Rule 16a-3 under the Exchange Act, it is the Company's
belief that, other than as
11
set forth below, any such forms required to be filed pursuant to Section 16(a)
of the Exchange Act were timely filed, as necessary, by the officers, directors
and securityholders required to file the same.
