Report of Registered Independent Public Accounting Firm

 

We have reviewed the accompanying interim consolidated Balance Sheets of Wuhan General Group (China), Inc. (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, and the related statements of income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. These interim consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

 

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

 

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

1.ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

 

Wuhan General Group (China), Inc. (the “Company”) is a holding company whose primary business operations are conducted through its operating subsidiaries Wuhan Blower Co., Ltd. (“Wuhan Blower”), Wuhan Generating Equipment Co., Ltd. (“Wuhan Generating”), and Wuhan Sungreen Environment Protection Equipment Co., Ltd. (“Wuhan Sungreen”), formerly known as Wuhan Xingelin Machinery Equipment Manufacturing Co., Ltd. Wuhan Blower is a China-based manufacturer of industrial blowers that principally are components of steam driven electrical power generation plants. Wuhan Generating is a China-based manufacturer of industrial steam and water turbines, also principally for use in electrical power generation plants. Wuhan Sungreen is a China-based manufacturer of blower silencers, connectors, and other general spare parts for blowers and electrical equipment.

 

The Company was formed under the laws of the State of Colorado on July 19, 1988 as Riverside Capital, Inc. On March 18, 1992, the Company changed its name to United National Film Corporation. In June 2001, the Company suspended all business activities and became a “shell company.”

 

In 2006, the Company effectively dissolved or abandoned all subsidiaries, which may or may not have been active in periods prior to June 2001. On October 20, 2006, the Company changed its state of incorporation from Colorado to Nevada by means of a merger with and into a Nevada corporation formed on September 12, 2006 solely for the purpose of effecting the reincorporation.

 

On February 7, 2007, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Fame Good International Limited (“Fame”) and Universe Faith Group Limited (“UFG”). Prior to the share exchange, Fame was the sole stockholder of UFG, which is the parent company of Wuhan Blower and Wuhan Generating. Pursuant to the share exchange, UFG became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and Fame became the Company’s controlling stockholder. On March 13, 2007, the Company changed its name from United National Film Corporation to Wuhan General Group (China), Inc.

 

On December 25, 2008, Wuhan Blower, entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Wuhan Gongchuang Real Estate Co., Ltd. (the “Seller”, also known as “Hubei Gongchuang Real Estate Co., Ltd”) pursuant to which Wuhan Blower acquired certain assets owned by Seller, including certain buildings, equipment, land use rights, and construction in progress.  An 8-K filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission on February 5, 2009 further details the transaction. Title of the assets purchased under the above agreement has been recorded under Wuhan Sungreen. Wuhan Blower currently owns 100% beneficial interest in Wuhan Sungreen. Wuhan Sungreen is incorporated under the laws of the PRC. The purchased assets have been accounted for on Wuhan Sungreen’s books as contributed capital.

 

The assets that were purchased from the Seller were re-appraised by an independent appraisal firm Zhuhai GongPingSiYuan Appraising Co Ltd (“Zhuhai”). The re-appraisal found that the purchase price of the assets was not materially unfair. Zhuhai concluded that when the entire construction of the workshop and buildings is completed, the purchase price should be considered fair. However, due to the limitation of insufficient resources and the Company’s plan to dispose of Wuhan Sungreen, the Company has ceased any further construction of the workshop and buildings. See also Note 8 – Property, Plant and Equipment, and Note 10 – Construction in Progress.

2.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

(a)Method of Accounting

 

The Company maintains its general ledger and journals with the accrual method of accounting for financial reporting purposes. The financial statements and notes are representations of management. Accounting policies adopted by the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the presentation of financial statements, which are compiled on the accrual basis of accounting.

 

(b)Consolidation

 

The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, UFG, Wuhan Blower, Wuhan Generating and Wuhan Sungreen. Inter-company transactions, such as sales, cost of sales, due to/due from balances, investment in subsidiaries, and subsidiaries’ capitalization have been eliminated.

 

(c)Economic and Political Risks

 

The Company’s operations are conducted in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.

 

(d)Use of Estimates

 

In preparing the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivable and inventories, deferred income taxes, warranty liability and the estimation of useful lives of property, plant, and equipment. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

(e)Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all cash and other highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains bank accounts in the U.S. and the PRC.

 

(f)Accounts Receivable-Trade

 

Trade receivables are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts.  An allowance for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable.  Pursuant to the Company’s accounting policies, the allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by applying a rate of five percent on outstanding trade receivables.  In addition, the Company uses a specific review process to determine if any additional allowances for doubtful accounts are required. Bad debts are charged against the allowance when outstanding trade receivables have been determined to be uncollectible.  See also Note 5 – Accounts Receivable.

 

(g)Inventory

 

Inventory, consisting of raw materials, work in progress, and finished products, is stated at the lower of cost or market value. Finished products are comprised of direct materials, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overhead.

(h)Property, Plant, and Equipment

 

Property, plant, and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method with 5% salvage value. Estimated useful lives of the property, plant and equipment are as follows:

 

Buildings 30 years
Machinery and Equipment 10 years
Furniture and Fixtures 5 years
Motor Vehicles 5 years

 

(i)Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is provided over the respective useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of intangibles are as follows:

 

Technical Licenses 10 years
Trademark 20 years

 

Annually, the Company reviews the intangible assets for impairment, in accordance with ASC 350 Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. The company considers whether the estimated future benefits of the technical licenses and trademarks will be fully realized over the course of their estimated useful lives. If the technical licenses become obsolete, or trademarks are unsuccessfully defended against infringement by third-parties, the Company will consider future cash flows and relevant factors to quantify the level of impairment and record impairment adjustments accordingly. The Company has not yet recognized any impairment upon the intangible assets.

 

(j)Land Use Rights

 

The Company carries land use rights at cost less accumulated amortization. Land use rights are amortized straight-line over the useful life of 50 years for the Wuhan Blower and Wuhan Generating campus, and of 30 years for the Wuhan Sungreen campus.

 

(k)Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used in accordance with SFAS 144. SFAS 144 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal. The Company’s long-lived assets are grouped by their presentation on the financial statements according to the balance sheet and further segregated by their operating and asset type. Long-lived assets subject to impairment include buildings, equipment, vehicles, trademarks, software licenses, land use rights and real property available for sale. The Company considers annually whether these assets are impaired. The Company makes its determinations based on various factors that impact those assets. For example, the Company considers real property impaired if property prices decrease drastically and it is unlikely that the prices will recover within the foreseeable future. Although property values in the PRC have experienced a decline during the last year, prices are increasing again. Therefore, the Company believes its real property has at least retained the value of its original cost to the Company. Equipment used for production, which undergo regular maintenance, are assessed annually. The Company has maintained a profitable business amidst the economic downturn and equipment has continued to be used for production, indicating that such equipment still retains its value to the Company. Based on its review, the Company believes that, as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, there were no significant impairments of its long-lived assets.

Notes to Financial Statements

(Stated in US Dollars)

 

The Company believes that cash flows generated by its ongoing business, which incorporates significant use of the long-lived assets of the Company, provide sufficient profit so that it is unnecessary to record any impairment charges. The Company believes that current annual provision of depreciation and amortization provides sufficient expense related to the use of the long-lived assets carried on the Company’s books.

 

(l)Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue from the sale of blower products, generating equipment and other general equipment is recognized at the time of the transfer of risks and rewards of ownership, which generally occurs when the goods are delivered to customers and the title passes.  The Company believes that the installation is not essential to the functionality of the equipment. This is because the equipment is tested at the Company’s facilities before it is shipped and consequently, the equipment is completed and functional at the point that it is delivered to the customer. Additionally, since the Company’s products generally are a smaller component of a large project, after delivery, the Company has no control over how the customer will use the delivered products and sometimes other companies are used to install the equipment purchased from us. Finally, our customers do not have a contractual right to return products to the Company, and we historically have experienced virtually no returns.

 

·Revenue from product sales is recognized when the goods are delivered and title has passed. Product sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of the value-added tax (VAT). All of the Company’s products that are sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 17% of the gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing the finished product.

 

·Revenue from “Turn-Key” construction projects is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting and therefore takes into account the costs, estimated earnings and revenue to date on contracts not yet completed. Revenue recognized is that percentage of the total contract price that cost expended to date bears to anticipated final total cost, based on current estimates of costs to complete. Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs, and depreciation costs. Selling, general, and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. At the time a loss on a contract becomes known, the entire amount of the estimated ultimate loss is recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Claims for additional contract costs are recognized upon a signed change order from the customer or in accordance with paragraphs 62 and 65 of AICPA Statement of Position 81-1, "Accounting for Performance of Construction - Type and Certain Production - Type Contracts."

 

·Revenue from the rendering of maintenance services is recognized when such services are provided.

 

·Provision is made for foreseeable losses as soon as they are anticipated by management.

 

(m)Cost of Sales

 

The Company’s cost of sales is comprised of raw materials, factory worker salaries and related benefits, machinery supplies, maintenance supplies, depreciation, utilities, inbound freight, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection and warehousing costs.

 

(n)Selling Expenses

 

Selling expenses are comprised of outbound freight, client entertainment, commissions, depreciation, and travel and lodging expenses.

(o)Advertising expenses

 

All advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

 

(p)General & Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses include outside consulting services, research & development, executive compensation, quality control, and general overhead such as the finance department, administrative staff, and depreciation and amortization expense.

 

(q)Research and Development

 

The Company expenses all research and development costs as incurred.

 

(r)Shipping and Handling

 

Shipping and handling costs represent costs associated with shipping products to customers and handling finished goods. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are recognized as revenue and shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of sales.

 

(s)Foreign Currency Translation

 

The Company maintains its financial statements in the functional currency, which is the Renminbi (RMB). Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet dates. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods.

 

For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the Company, which are prepared using the functional currency, have been translated into United States dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates and stockholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign exchange adjustment to other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity.

 

   March 31,   December 31,   March 31, 
Exchange Rates  2012   2011   2011 
Period end RMB : US$ exchange rate   6.3122    6.3647    6.57010 
Average period RMB : US$ exchange rate   6.2975    6.4735    6.58940 

 

RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at the rates used in translation.

 

(t)Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the accrual method of accounting to determine income taxes for the year. The Company has implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Income tax liabilities computed according to the United States and People’s Republic of China (PRC) tax laws are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of fixed assets and intangible assets for financial and tax reporting. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will be either taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes also are recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future income taxes. A valuation allowance is created to evaluate deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize that tax benefit, or that future realization is uncertain.

Effective January 1, 2009, PRC government implemented a new 25% tax rate across the board for all enterprises regardless of whether domestic or foreign enterprise without any tax holiday which is defined as "two-year exemption followed by three-year half exemption" hitherto enjoyed by tax payers. As a result of the new tax law of a standard 25% tax rate, tax holidays terminated as of December 31, 2008. However, PRC government has established a set of transition rules to allow enterprises already started tax holidays before January 1, 2009, to continue enjoying the tax holidays until being fully utilized. For the period ended March 31, 2011, Wuhan Blower and Wuhan Generating were subject to a 12.5% tax rate and Wuhan Sungreen was subject to a 25% tax rate.

 

The Company is subject to United States Tax according to Internal Revenue Code Sections 951 and 957. Corporate income tax is imposed on progressive rates in the range of: -

 

Taxable Income 
Rate   Over   But Not Over   Of Amount Over 
 15%   0    50,000    0 
 25%   50,000    75,000    50,000 
 34%   75,000    100,000    75,000 
 39%   100,000    335,000    100,000 
 34%   335,000    10,000,000    335,000 
 35%   10,000,000    15,000,000    10,000,000 
 38%   15,000,000    18,333,333    15,000,000 
 35%   18,333,333    -    - 

 

(u)Statutory Reserve

 

In accordance with PRC laws, statutory reserve refers to the appropriation from net income, to the account “statutory reserve” to be used for future company development, recovery of losses, and increase of capital, as approved, to expand production or operations. PRC laws prescribe that an enterprise operating at a profit, must appropriate, on an annual basis, an amount equal to 10% of its profit. Such an appropriation is necessary until the reserve reaches a maximum that is equal to 50% of the enterprise’s PRC registered capital. The Company cannot pay dividends out of statutory reserves or paid in capital registered in PRC.

 

(v)Other Comprehensive Income

 

Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income are required to be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company’s current component of other comprehensive income is the foreign currency translation adjustment.

 

(w)Warranty Policy

 

The estimation of warranty obligations is determined in the same period that revenue from the sale of the related products is recognized. The warranty obligation is based on historical experience and reflects management’s best estimate of expected costs at the time products are sold. Warranty accruals are adjusted for known or anticipated warranty claims as new information becomes available. Future events and circumstances could materially change the estimates and require adjustments to the warranty obligation. New product launches require a greater use of judgment in developing estimates until historical experience becomes available. See also Note 13 – Warranty Liability.

(x)Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method for warrants and the as-if method for convertible securities. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding warrants, and convertible preferred stock. See also Note 17 – Earnings Per Share.

 

(y)Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments are cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivable, advances to suppliers, advances to employees, bank loans and notes, accounts payable, other payable, dividend payable, accrued liabilities, and long-term liabilities. The recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivable, advances to suppliers, advances to employees, bank loans and notes, accounts payable, other payable, dividend payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The recorded values of long-term liabilities approximate their fair values, as interest approximates market rates.

 

(z)Retirement Plan

 

The employees of the Company participate in the defined contribution retirement plans managed by the local government authorities whereby the Company is required to contribute to the schemes at fixed rates of the employees’ salary. The Company’s contributions to this plan are charged to profit or loss when incurred. The Company has no obligations for the payment of retirement and other post-retirement benefits of staff other than the contributions described above.

 

(aa)Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-02, Consolidation (Topic 810) — Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary — A Scope Clarification. ASU 2010-02 clarifies that the scope of previous guidance in the accounting and disclosure requirements related to decreases in ownership of a subsidiary apply to (i) a subsidiary or a group of assets that is a business or nonprofit entity; (ii) a subsidiary that is a business or nonprofit entity that is transferred to an equity method investee or joint venture; and (iii) an exchange of a group of assets that constitutes a business or nonprofit activity for a noncontrolling interest in an entity. ASU 2010-02 also expands the disclosure requirements about deconsolidation of a subsidiary or derecognition of a group of assets to include (i) the valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of any retained investment; (ii) the nature of any continuing involvement with the subsidiary or entity acquiring a group of assets; and (iii) whether the transaction that resulted in the deconsolidation or derecognition was with a related party or whether the former subsidiary or entity acquiring the assets will become a related party after the transaction. The provisions of ASU 2010-02 will be effective for the first reporting period beginning after December 13, 2009. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2010-02 on January 1, 2010 and does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company.

 

In January 2010 the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820) —Improving Disclosures About Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2010-06 clarifies the requirements for certain disclosures around fair value measurements and also requires registrants to provide certain additional disclosures about those measurements. The new disclosure requirements include (i) the significant amounts of transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements during the period, along with the reason for those transfers, and (ii) separate presentation of information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements of fair value measurements with significant unobservable inputs. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2010-06 on January 1, 2010 and does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the financial position, results of operations, or cash flows of the Company.

In April 2010, the FASB issued an Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No.2010-13,”Compensation-Stock Compensation” (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades,” which address the classification of a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which the underlying equity security trades. Topic 718 is amended to clarify that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades shall not be considered to contain a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, such an award is not to be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity classification. The amendments in this update should be applied by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The cumulative-effect adjustment should be calculated for all awards outstanding as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the amendments are initially applied, as if the amendments had been applied consistently since the inception of the award. ASU 2010-13 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of the operations.

Notes Receivable are typically in the form of bank drafts from customers. Bank drafts are liquid instruments that can be either (a) endorsed to the Company’s vendors, or (b) discounted to the Company’s own bank. The Company chooses to carry these instruments as notes receivable instead of cash primarily because of the associated time element of these notes, as they typically mature in the future; therefore, these bank drafts represent different risk and reward characteristics.

The shared campus of Wuhan Blower and Wuhan Generating consists of approximately 440,000 square feet (44,233 square meters) of building floor space. The Company’s turbine manufacturing workshops provide approximately 401,622 square feet (37,312 square meters) of floor space. The office buildings that house the business operations of Wuhan Generating and Wuhan Sungreen provide an additional 287,650 square feet (26,723 square meters) of floor space.

 

The Company’s original plans for the acquired campus of Wuhan Sungreen included the following buildings:

 

   Square Feet   Square Meters 
Workshop 1   136,131    12,647

The parcel of land purchased in the asset acquisition and now carried on the books of Wuhan Sungreen totals 792,547 square feet (73,630.05 square meters). The land has been used for Wuhan Sungreen’s operations. The land use right will be amortized over 30 years.

 

10.CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS

 

Construction in progress represents the direct costs of design, acquisition, building construction, building improvements, and land improvement. These costs are capitalized in the Construction-in-Progress account until substantially all activities necessary to prepare the assets for their intended use are completed. At such point, the Construction-in-Progress account is closed and the capitalized costs are transferred to their appropriate asset classification. No depreciation is provided until it is completed and ready for the intended use.

 

The assets reported under the construction in progress account relate to various projects at the Company’s operating subsidiaries. All of the construction projects at Wuhan Blower have been substantially completed. The assets have been put into use. Accordingly, the assets have been moved to the property, plant, and equipment account. Construction projects at Wuhan Generating include a new workshop, office building and the installation of equipment in the workshop. The workshop was completed in the beginning of 2009. By the end of the second quarter of 2010, all equipment had been fully installed and the workshop was operational. The structure of the office building has been substantially completed; however, the necessary construction of the interior to bring the building into use has been temporarily suspended. The Company is evaluating its current resources and will provide an expected completion date when it believes sufficient resources are available to complete the construction.

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

 

The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to a dividend equal to 5% per annum of the amount invested, subject to adjustment. These dividends are payable quarterly. In the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation, holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to a liquidation preference of $2.33 per share. This amount is in excess of the stock’s par value of $0.0001. The Series A Preferred Stock is cumulative, non-participating, and non-redeemable, and as such, there is no related sinking fund. On or after February 5, 2010, the Series A Preferred Stock will be mandatorily converted into common stock if the Company’s common stock achieves certain price and volume requirements.

 

Series B Convertible Preferred Stock

 

On September 5, 2008, the Company entered into an Agreement to Amend Series J Warrants of the Company with holders of warrants exercisable for a majority of the shares of warrant stock issuable under the Company’s Series A, B and J warrants. This agreement amended the Series J Warrants so that such warrants are exercisable for shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). Prior to this agreement, such warrants were exercisable for shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

In connection with this agreement, the Company designated 9,358,370 shares of preferred stock as “Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share” with those rights and preferences as set forth in the Certificate of Designation of the Relative Rights and Preferences of the Series B Preferred Stock of the Company. The Series B Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company’s common stock and junior to the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible on a one-for-one basis into shares of the Company’s common stock. Except with respect to specified transactions that may affect the rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of the Series B Preferred Stock and except as otherwise required by Nevada law, the Series B Preferred Stock has no voting rights. The Series B Preferred Stock is non-redeemable and is not entitled to dividends. When accounting for the Series B Preferred Stock, the Company determined that they qualified as equity because the aforementioned characteristics made them akin to common stock.

 

Investors holding the amended Series J Warrants exercised their right to purchase Series B Preferred Stock at $2.33 per share. In 2008, certain investors exercised their amended Series J Warrants for a total of 6,369,078 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The Company received gross proceeds of $14,839,952 for the issuance of those shares in connection with the exercise of the Series J Warrants. The total amount of commission paid to the placement agent, 1st BridgeHouse Securities, was 10% of the gross proceeds, or $1,483,995. The Company also paid a total of $274,480 for other financing related expenses. The net proceeds from the transactions, after accounting for placement agent commissions and other related financing expenses, was $13,081,477.

Simultaneously with the exercise of a portion of the Series J Warrants, a corresponding portion of the Series B and Series JJ Warrants became exercisable. Accordingly, the Company accounted for the net proceeds of this issuance by allocating to Par Value, Additional Paid in Capital attributable to Series B Preferred Stock, and Additional Paid in Capital attributable to Series B and JJ Warrants. The Company determined that the Series B Preferred Stock had a beneficial conversion feature (BCF). Accordingly, the Company accounted for this BCF as a constructive preferred dividend, which is a charge that reduces retained earnings and increases additional paid in capital attributable to the Series B Preferred Stock. The Company also transferred a prorated portion of proceeds previously recorded under Warrants A, J, B, and C to the Additional Paid in Capital of Series B Preferred Stock to reflect the exercise of the amended Series J Warrants.

 

In accordance to EITF 00-27 and EITF 98-5, the Company accounted for the modification of the Series J warrants as capital transaction because the modification of the warrants was concurrent with the Company’s investors contributing more working capital to the Company through the exercise of the Series J warrants. In consideration of SFAS 123(R), the Company does not believe there is additional incremental value that should be charged to earnings because the fair value assigned to the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock was less than the fair value of the Company’s common stock based on the market’s closing price on September 5, 2008 and the valuation provided by investment bankers on September 3, 2008. The Series J warrant holders did not receive any additional value as a result of the amendment.

 

Warrant Recapitalization

 

On December 13, 2010, the Company entered into a series of agreements designed to reduce the overhang of the Company’s Series A, B, C, AA, BB and JJ warrants and to simplify the Company’s capital structure.

 

With respect to the Series A and Series B warrants, each Series A and Series B warrant holder was given the option to (i) sell all or part of such holder’s warrant to Fame Good International Limited, the Company’s controlling stockholder (“Fame Good”), for $0.50 per share of warrant stock pursuant to a Warrant Purchase Agreement entered into by and among the Company, Fame Good and certain warrant holders (the “Warrant Purchase Agreement”) and/or (ii) exchange all or part of such holder’s warrant for the issuance by the Company of 0.5 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, per share of warrant stock pursuant to a Warrant Exchange Agreement entered into by and among the Company and certain warrant holders (the “Series A and B Warrant Exchange Agreement”).  The director and controlling stockholder of Fame Good is Mr. Xu Jie, who currently serves as the Chairman of the Company.

 

The Series A and Series B warrant holders sold warrants to purchase an aggregate of 3,913,905 shares of common stock to Fame Good under the Warrant Purchase Agreement and exchanged warrants to purchase an aggregate of 9,865,222 shares of common stock with the Company under the Series A and B Warrant Exchange Agreement.  The warrant purchase closed on December 13, 2010, and the warrant exchange with the Series A and Series B warrant holders, other than Fame Good, closed on the same date.  In total, the Company issued 4,932,609 shares of common stock in connection with the recapitalization of the Series A and Series B warrants.  This amount includes 1,956,952 shares of common stock issued to Fame Good upon the exchange of the warrants that it purchased from certain Series A and B warrant holders.  The Company closed on the warrant exchange with Fame Good on January 21, 2011.

 

With respect to its Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrants, the Company entered into a Warrant Exchange Agreement with Fame Good and all of the Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrant holders (the “Series C, AA, BB and JJ Warrant Exchange Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company exchanged all of the outstanding Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrants for the issuance by the Company of (i) 1.372921615 shares of the Company’s common stock per share of Series C warrant stock; (ii) 0.8203 shares of the Company’s common stock per share of Series AA and Series BB warrant stock; and (iii) 0.8288 shares of the Company’s common stock per share of Series JJ warrant stock.  The Company closed on the warrant exchange with the Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrant holders on January 21, 2011. The Company issued 2,220,456 shares of common stock to the Series C, AA, BB and JJ warrant holders at this closing.

16.INCOME TAXES

 

On February 7, 2007, income from the Company’s foreign subsidiaries became subject to U.S. income tax liability; however, this tax is deferred until foreign source income is repatriated to the Company from earnings and profits after foreign income taxes, which has not yet occurred.

 

All of the Company’s operations are in the PRC, and in accordance with the relevant tax laws and regulations of PRC, the corporate income tax rate is 25%. As a business incentive, the Company was approved as a foreign investment enterprise in March 2007, and in accordance with the relevant regulations regarding the favorable tax treatment for a foreign investment enterprise, the Company was entitled to a two-year tax exemption followed by a three-year half exemption.  For the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company was still within the two year tax exemption period, and accordingly, made no provision for income taxes. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, Wuhan Blower and Wuhan Generating were subject to a 12.5% tax rate and Wuhan Sungreen was subject to a 25% tax rate. From 2012, the Company’s tax rate should be 25%.

 

Effective January 1, 2008, the PRC income tax rules were changed. The PRC government implemented a new 25% tax rate for all enterprises whether domestic or foreign enterprise, and abolished the tax holiday. However, the PRC government has established grandfathering transition rules that permit enterprises that had received an income tax exemption prior to January 1, 2008 to continue to enjoy the exemption until the original expiration date.

The amounts carried in the column for the Company, UFG and adjustments reflect the corporate expenses of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Universe Faith Group Limited, which has no operations and only serves to hold the Company’s operating subsidiaries. The corporate expenses include the costs for professional fees related to corporate matters and compliance efforts. The majority of the costs are directly a result of the Company being a U.S. public company. The Company believes that these costs are not costs which are directly attributable to the operations of our operating segments and thus any allocation of these costs would be discretionary and may misrepresent the performance of the Company’s operating segments. Intercompany eliminations have not been applied to each individual operating segment for the purposes of reporting the results of operations and the financial position of each operating segment. The adjustments represent the eliminations necessary to consolidate the financial statements. See Note 2(b) - Consolidation.

19.STOCK COMPENSATION EXPENSE

 

On November 30, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the Wuhan General Group (China), Inc. 2007 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides that the maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be issued under the Plan is 3,000,000 shares. The Company’s employees, directors, and service providers are eligible to participate in the Plan.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recorded $0 and $4,555 and of stock compensation expense, respectively. The entire stock option compensation expenses were recorded as general and administrative expenses given the nature of the work contribution of the grantees.

 

The range of the exercise prices of the outstanding stock options at March 31, 2012 are shown in the following table:

 

 Price Range    Number of Shares 
 $0 - $9.99    240,000 shares 
 $10.00 - $19.99    0 shares 
 $20.00 - $29.99    0 shares 

 

The Company has not accrued or realized tax benefit related to the expense of stock options in the United States because it does not currently have a plan to repatriate its earnings.

 

The Company used the Black-Scholes Model to value the options granted. The following table shows the weighted average fair value of the grants as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, and the assumptions that were employed in the model:

 

   Grant Date 
Weighted-average fair value of grants:  $0.27 
Risk-free interest rate:   3.47%
Expected volatility:   2.21%
Expected life in months:   111.00 

 

Since there is no net cash settlement arrangement for the warrants, they are classified as an equity instrument in accordance with EITF00-19. Thus, subsequent changes in fair value are not recognized.

 

20.CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND OTHER RISKS

 

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivable, and advances to suppliers. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with several financial institutions. It invests with high credit quality financial institutions and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution. Receivables are from customers and suppliers and concentrated in the People’s Republic of China. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and suppliers. The Company generally does not require collateral, but in most cases can place liens against the property, plant, or equipment constructed or terminate the contract if a material default occurs. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts which has been within management’s expectations.

 

The Company is subject to the concentration of supply risk because it contracted with a single vendor, Hubei Gongchuang Real Estate Co., Ltd. to perform all of the construction on its main campus, as detailed in Note 8 - Property, Plant and Equipment.

21.DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

 

In order to improve its cash flows from operations and working capital, the Company decided to redeploy its capital to meet requirements of its business plan. On December 29, 2010, the Company classified its subsidiary Wuhan Sungreen as a discontinued operation. Accordingly, Wuhan Sungreen’s operations have been classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of income and cash flows and the assets and associated liabilities have been classified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company reviewed its Wuhan Sungreen assets and plans to sell these assets for approximately $20 million before 2012. Proceeds from the sales of Wuhan Sungreen assets will be used for working capital for Wuhan Blower and Wuhan Generating and potentially purchasing of equipment.

 

In accordance with SFAS No. 144 (ASC 360-10), “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”), the results of Wuhan Sungreen operations have been excluded from continuing operations and reported as discontinued operations for the current and prior periods. Furthermore, the assets of Wuhan Sungreen have been reclassified as held for sale in the Balance Sheet for prior periods. On December 29, 2010, the Company assessed its long-lived assets in Wuhan Sungreen based on the best estimation per the revenue guidance and current profit gross margin and determined that no write-down is necessary because undiscounted cash flow is substantially more than the carrying values of the assets.

 

The following table summarizes the amounts included in income/(loss) from discontinued operations for all periods presented. These revenues and expenses were historically reported under Wuhan Sungreen operating segment, and are now reported in discontinued operations:

Recent Developments

 

Effective December 29, 2010, we decided to sell the assets and business of Wuhan Sungreen. Accordingly, the results of Wuhan Sungreen’s operations have been excluded from continuing operations and reported as discontinued operations in the financial statements for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. Wuhan Sungreen is continuing its operations pending further action. As of March 31, 2012, we estimate that the fair market value of Wuhan Sungreen’s assets is approximately $18 to 24 million. We anticipate that all of the Wuhan Sungreen assets will be sold prior to October 1, 2012, and that any proceeds from the sale of such assets will be used to meet the working capital needs of Wuhan Blower and Wuhan Generating and/or to purchase new equipment for Wuhan Blower and Wuhan Generating.

Results of Operations

 

Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2011

 

Sales.  Sales increased $0.9 million, or 3.19%, to $28.29 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $27.39 million for the same period in 2011.  This increase was the result of increase sales gained from of lower price competition in obtained more sales order.

Gross Profit.  Our gross profit Decreased $0.55 million, or 9.17%, to $6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $6.58 million for the same period in 2011.  Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 21.30% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to 24.02% during the same period in 2011.

This increase was primarily the result of the factors described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our primary capital needs have been to fund the working capital requirements necessitated by the expansion of our manufacturing facilities. We finance our business operations primarily through cash generated by our operations, bank loans and various financing transactions. As of March 31, 2012, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $80.96million, including restricted cash of approximately $13.96 million.

 

The collection of our accounts receivable and other receivables is important to solidifying our liquidity position. Although we are still experiencing payment delays, we continue to focus on the collection of accounts receivable. Our accounts receivable ratio increased to 187 days at March 31, 2012, compared to 166 days at March 31, 2011.

 

The majority of our customers pay us in installments at various stages of project completion. The percentage of the purchase price due at the various stages varies somewhat between contracts. In our standard sales contract, our customers are required to pay us 60% of the purchase price of a piece of equipment at the time of delivery. Alternatively, some sales contracts provide for 15% due upon signing and 45% due upon delivery. Our customers are generally required to pay us an additional 30% of the purchase price when the equipment has been installed and has performed properly for 72 hours. However, since our equipment is generally a component of a larger project, there are times that customers do not allow us to install the equipment immediately upon delivery. Our standard sales contract generally requires payment of the remaining 10% no later than 18 months following the installation. Some customers have not strictly adhered to the contractual payment terms. This has increased our accounts receivable, which is discussed in detail below. Although the payment terms in our standard sales contract result in a long payment cycle, we believe our payment terms are typical in our industry in China. Nonetheless, we are seeking more aggressive payment schedules on new sales contracts in order to improve our liquidity position.

 

Accounts receivable are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts. Pursuant to the Company’s accounting policies, the allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by applying a rate of 5% on outstanding accounts receivable. In addition, the Company uses a specific review process to determine if any additional allowances for doubtful accounts are required. Bad debts are charged against the allowance when outstanding accounts receivable have been determined to be uncollectible. We provide for bad debts principally based upon the aging of accounts receivable, the collectability of specific customer accounts, our experience in the collection of bad debts and the general condition of the industry.

 

Accounts receivable increased from approximately $56.57 million to $60.99 million from December 31, 2011 to March 31, 2011. The allowance for bad debt provided in accordance with the Company’s accounting policy was $232,798 at March 31, 2012. The Company applied a rate of 5% on outstanding accounts receivable, which results in an ending balance of approximately $3.2million. Our accounts receivable are currently at an appropriate level considering the Company’s recent increase in sales. However, we remain committed to a sustained focus on debt collection and management of our accounts receivable levels.

We have devoted increased resources to our collection efforts with respect to our outstanding accounts receivable. We have also aligned more closely the sales commission structure with the collection on sales. The accounts receivable balance increased by approximately $4.42 million from December 31, 2011 to March 31, 2012.

 

At March 31, 2012, we had approximately $21.83 million in other receivables, which is an increase of $3.34 million compared to the balance at December 31, 2011.

 

We also had advances to suppliers of approximately $24.46 million at March 31, 2012, which decreased by $0.73million compared to the balance at December 31, 2011. We typically need to place a deposit in advance with our suppliers on a portion of the purchase price, and for some suppliers, we must maintain a deposit for future orders.

 

We had inventory turnover of 59.48 times for the three months ended March 31, 2012. We calculate inventory turnover as sales divided by average inventory. Inventory decreased approximately $2.46 million in raw materials, increase approximately $1.26 million in work in progress and $4.02 million in finished goods for the three month period ended March 31, 2012. The increased inventory related to the Company’s increase in sales.

 

Net cash sourced in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was approximately $9.30 million, as compared to approximately $3.28 million provided in the three months ended March 31, 2011. This change was primarily due to an decrease in payments to suppliers and tax payments and increase in continue operation.

 

Net cash used by investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was approximately $1.12 million, as compared to approximately $15.25 million used for the three months ended March 31, 2011. This change was mainly the result of a decrease in restricted cash and a decrease in plant and equipment expenditures.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was approximately $221,635, as compared to approximately $2.54 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. This change was primarily due to the decrease in bank loans and notes.

 

We intend to maintain the current loan facilities with local banks and various financial institutions for new projects that we have obtained. The Company believes that its currently available working capital, combined with cash from operations and bank financing, should be adequate to sustain operations at current levels through at least the next 12 months. For our long-term strategic growth, the Company will continue to rely upon debt and capital markets for any necessary long-term funding not provided by operating cash flows. Funding decisions will be guided by our capital structure planning objectives. The primary objectives of the Company’s capital structure planning are to maximize financial flexibility and preserve liquidity while reducing interest expense.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We consider our critical accounting policies to be those that require the more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of financial statements, including the following:

 

12
 

 

Method of Accounting

 

The Company maintains its general ledger and journals with the accrual method of accounting for financial reporting purposes. The financial statements and notes are representations of management. Accounting policies adopted by the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the presentation of financial statements, which are compiled on the accrual basis of accounting.

 

Consolidation

 

The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, UFG, Wuhan Blower, Wuhan Generating, Wuhan Sungreen and Wuhan Administrative. Inter-company transactions, such as sales, cost of sales, due to/due from balances, investment in subsidiaries, and subsidiaries’ capitalization have been eliminated.

 

Economic and Political Risks

 

The Company’s operations are conducted in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.

 

Use of Estimates

 

In preparing the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the valuation of accounts receivable and inventories, deferred income taxes, warranty liability and the estimation of useful lives of property, plant and equipment. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all cash and other highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains bank accounts in the U.S. and the PRC.

 

Accounts Receivable-Trade

 

Trade receivables are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts.  An allowance for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable.  Pursuant to the Company’s accounting policies, the allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by applying a rate of five percent on outstanding trade receivables.  In addition, the Company uses a specific review process to determine if any additional allowances for doubtful accounts are required. Bad debts are charged against the allowance when outstanding trade receivables have been determined to be uncollectible.

 

13
 

 

Inventory

 

Inventory, consisting of raw materials, work in progress, and finished products, is stated at the lower of cost or market value. Finished products are comprised of direct materials, direct labor and an appropriate proportion of overhead.

 

Property, Plant, and Equipment

 

Property, plant, and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method with 5% salvage value. Estimated useful lives of the property, plant and equipment are as follows:

 

Buildings 30 years
Machinery and Equipment 10 years
Furniture and Fixtures 5 years
Motor Vehicles 5 years
   

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is provided over the respective useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of intangibles are as follows:

 

Technical Licenses 10 years
Trademark 20 years

 

Annually, the Company reviews the intangible assets for impairment, in accordance with ASC 350 Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. The Company considers whether the estimated future benefits of the technical licenses and trademarks will be fully realized over the course of their estimated useful lives. If the technical licenses become obsolete, or trademarks are unsuccessfully defended against infringement by third-parties, the Company will consider future cash flows and relevant factors to quantify the level of impairment and record impairment adjustments accordingly. The Company has not yet recognized any impairment upon the intangible assets.

 

Land Use Rights

 

The Company carries land use rights at cost less accumulated amortization. Land use rights are amortized straight-line over the useful life of 50 years for the Wuhan Blower and Wuhan Generating campus, and of 30 years for the Wuhan Sungreen campus.

 

14
 

  

Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”), which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used in accordance with SFAS 144. SFAS 144 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal. The Company’s long-lived assets are grouped by their presentation on the financial statements according to the balance sheet and further segregated by their operating and asset type. Long-lived assets subject to impairment include buildings, equipment, vehicles, trademarks, software licenses, land use rights and real property available for sale. The Company considers annually whether these assets are impaired. The Company makes its determinations based on various factors that impact those assets. For example, the Company considers real property impaired if property prices decrease drastically and it is unlikely that the prices will recover within the foreseeable future. Although property values in the PRC have experienced a decline during the last year, prices are increasing again. Therefore, the Company believes its real property has at least retained the value of its original cost to the Company. Equipment used for production, which undergo regular maintenance, are assessed annually. The Company has maintained a profitable business amidst the economic downturn and equipment has continued to be used for production, indicating that such equipment still retains its value to the Company. Based on its review, the Company believes that, as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, there were no significant impairments of its long-lived assets.

 

The Company believes that cash flows generated by its ongoing business, which incorporates significant use of the long-lived assets of the Company, provide sufficient profit so that it is unnecessary to record any impairment charges. The Company believes that current annual provision of depreciation and amortization provides sufficient expense related to the use of the long-lived assets carried on the Company’s books.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue from the sale of blower products, generating equipment and other general equipment is recognized at the time of the transfer of risks and rewards of ownership, which generally occurs when the goods are delivered to customers and the title passes.  The Company believes that the installation is not essential to the functionality of the equipment. This is because the equipment is tested at the Company’s facilities before it is shipped and consequently, the equipment is completed and functional at the point that it is delivered to the customer. Additionally, since the Company’s products generally are a smaller component of a large project, after delivery, the Company has no control over how the customer will use the delivered products and sometimes other companies are used to install the equipment purchased from us. Finally, our customers do not have a contractual right to return products to the Company, and we historically have experienced virtually no returns.

 

15
 

 

Revenue from product sales is recognized when the goods are delivered and title has passed. Product sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of the value-added tax (VAT). All of the Company’s products that are sold in the PRC are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 17% of the gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing the finished product.

 

Revenue from “Turn-Key” construction projects is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting and therefore takes into account the costs, estimated earnings and revenue to date on contracts not yet completed. Revenue recognized is that percentage of the total contract price that cost expended to date bears to anticipated final total cost, based on current estimates of costs to complete. Contract costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs, and depreciation costs. Selling, general, and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. At the time a loss on a contract becomes known, the entire amount of the estimated ultimate loss is recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Claims for additional contract costs are recognized upon a signed change order from the customer or in accordance with paragraphs 62 and 65 of AICPA Statement of Position 81-1, "Accounting for Performance of Construction - Type and Certain Production - Type Contracts."

 

Revenue from the rendering of maintenance services is recognized when such services are provided.

 

Provision is made for foreseeable losses as soon as they are anticipated by management.

 

Cost of Sales

 

The Company’s cost of sales is comprised of raw materials, factory worker salaries and related benefits, machinery supplies, maintenance supplies, depreciation, utilities, inbound freight, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection and warehousing costs.

 

Selling Expenses

 

Selling expenses are comprised of outbound freight, client entertainment, commissions, depreciation and travel and lodging expenses.

 

Advertising expenses

 

All advertising costs are expensed as incurred.

 

16
 

 

General & Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses include outside consulting services, research & development, executive compensation, quality control, and general overhead such as the finance department, administrative staff, and depreciation and amortization expense.

 

Research and Development

 

The Company expenses all research and development costs as incurred.

 

Shipping and Handling

 

Shipping and handling costs represent costs associated with shipping products to customers and handling finished goods. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are recognized as revenue and shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company are included in cost of sales.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The Company maintains its financial statements in the functional currency, which is the Renminbi (RMB). Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet dates. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods.

 

For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the Company, which are prepared using the functional currency, have been translated into United States dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates and stockholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign exchange adjustment to other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity.

 

Exchange Rates  March 31  2012   December 31,
2011
   March 31 2011 
Period-end RMB: US$ exchange rate   6.3122    6.3647    6.57010 
Average period RMB: US$ exchange rate   6.2975    6.4735    6.58940 

 

RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars at the rates used in translation.

 

17
 

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the accrual method of accounting to determine income taxes for the year. The Company has implemented Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Income tax liabilities computed according to the United States and People’s Republic of China (PRC) tax laws are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of fixed assets and intangible assets for financial and tax reporting. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will be either taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes also are recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future income taxes. A valuation allowance is created to evaluate deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize that tax benefit, or that future realization is uncertain.

 

Effective January 1, 2009, PRC government implemented a new 25% tax rate across the board for all enterprises regardless of whether domestic or foreign enterprise without any tax holiday which is defined as "two-year exemption followed by three-year half exemption" hitherto enjoyed by tax payers. As a result of the new tax law of a standard 25% tax rate, tax holidays terminated as of December 31, 2008. However, PRC government has established a set of transition rules to allow enterprises already started tax holidays before January 1, 2009, to continue enjoying the tax holidays until being fully utilized. For the period ended March 31, 2012, Wuhan Blower and Wuhan Generating were subject to a 12.5% tax rate and Wuhan Sungreen was subject to a 25% tax rate. For 2012, the Company’s tax rate should be 25%.

 

The Company also is subject to United States Tax according to Internal Revenue Code Sections 951 and 957. Corporate income tax is imposed on progressive rates in the range of:

 

Taxable Income 
Rate   Over   But Not Over   Of Amount Over 
 15%   0    50,000    0 
 25%   50,000    75,000    50,000 
 34%   75,000    100,000    75,000 
 39%   100,000    335,000    100,000 
 34%   335,000    10,000,000    335,000 
 35%   10,000,000    15,000,000    10,000,000 
 38%   15,000,000    18,333,333    15,000,000 
 35%   18,333,333    -    - 

 

Statutory Reserve

 

In accordance with PRC laws, the Company maintains statutory reserves, which are appropriations from net income, to the account “statutory reserve” to be used for future company development, recovery of losses, and increase of capital, as approved, to expand production or operations. PRC laws require that an enterprise operating at a profit, must appropriate, on an annual basis, an amount equal to 10% of its profit. Such an appropriation is necessary until the reserve reaches a maximum that is equal to 50% of the enterprise’s PRC registered capital. The Company cannot pay dividends from statutory reserves or paid in capital registered in the PRC.

 

18
 

 

Other Comprehensive Income

 

Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income are required to be reported in a financial statement that is presented with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company’s current component of other comprehensive income is the foreign currency translation adjustment.

 

Warranty Policy

 

The estimation of warranty obligations is determined in the same period that revenue from the sale of the related products is recognized. The warranty obligation is based on historical experience and reflects management’s best estimate of expected costs at the time products are sold. Warranty accruals are adjusted for known or anticipated warranty claims as new information becomes available. Future events and circumstances could materially change the estimates and require adjustments to the warranty obligation. New product launches require a greater use of judgment in developing estimates until historical experience becomes available.

 

Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method for warrants and the as-if method for convertible securities. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding warrants, and convertible preferred stock.

 

Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments are cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivable, advances to suppliers, advances to employees, bank loans and notes, accounts payable, other payable, dividend payable, accrued liabilities, and long-term liabilities. The recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivable, advances to suppliers, advances to employees, bank loans and notes, accounts payable, other payable, dividend payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The recorded values of long-term liabilities approximate their fair values, as interest approximates market rates.

 

19

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As required by Rule 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our management carried out an evaluation, with the participation and under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Principle Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2012. Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principle Accounting Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

Based upon this evaluation as of March 31, 2012, our Chief Executive Officer and Principle Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures contained significant deficiencies and material weaknesses. Therefore, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. We believe that the deficiencies and weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures result from weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which are described under “Item 9A. Controls and Procedures. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 6, 2012.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2011, the Company had no significant changes to its internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.
