The decrease is attributable to a decrease in revenues for marketing fees, business service, computer network installations, and kiosk solution project management resulting from a change in business operations. An overall decrease exists despite an increase in telecommunication revenues due to a change in business operations. Other income increased from approximately Rmb70,538 (US$8,512) for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to approximately Rmb75,484 (US$9,109) for the three months ended March 31, 2004. Other income decreased from approximately Rmb907,208 (US$109,474) for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 to approximately Rmb77,874 (US$9,397) for the nine months ended March 31, 2004. The decrease is primarily a result of a non-recurring transaction related to the disposal of the Registrant's Wuhan operation in July 2002. The Registrant's general and administrative expenses decreased from approximately Rmb2,067,594 (US$249,498) for the three months ended March 31, 2003 to approximately Rmb1,721,380 (US$207,721) for the three months ended March 31, 2004. This decrease in expenses is primarily attributable to the disposal of the Registrant's Wuhan operations and the ceasing of its related business. Amortization and depreciation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2004 decreased to approximately Rmb142,531 (US$17,199) from approximately Rmb164,514 (US$19,852) for the three months ended March 31, 2003. Amortization and depreciation expense increased from approximately Rmb441,844 (US$53,317) for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 to approximately Rmb 485,726 (US$58,613) for the nine months ended March 31, 2004. This increase results from additional fixed assets which are being employed for business operations. Cost of sales decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2004 to approximately Rmb166,520 (US$20,094) from approximately Rmb632,801 (US$76,361) for the three months ended March 31, 2003. This decrease is primarily attributable to the disposal of the Registrant's Wuhan operations and the ceasing of the Registrant's related ISP business as well as to a reduction in the Registrant's telecommunication-related sales and services. Net losses for the three months ended March 31, 2003 were approximately Rmb2,194,561 (US$265,364) compared to net losses of approximately Rmb1,881,206 (US$227,007) for the three months ended March 31, 2004. Net losses for the nine months ended March 31, 2003 were approximately Rmb6,737,572 (US$813,019) compared to approximately Rmb6,143,645 (US$741,360) for the nine months ended March 31, 2004. The Registrant continues to experience net losses as it works to more fully develop its services. 3 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- COL CHINA ONLINE INTERNATIONAL INC. ----------------------------------- Name of Registrant as Specified in Charter has caused this notification to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
