Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008
(Unaudited)
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)

NOTE 1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Business

China Nutrifruit Group Limited, formerly known as Fashion Tech International, Inc., (the “Company”) was originally incorporated in the state of Utah on April 22, 1983 and changed its domicile from Utah to Nevada in April 1999. The Company was not engaged in any business activities and had no meaningful operations, income producing assets or significant operating capital since at least 1989 until it acquired Fezdale Investments Limited (“Fezdale”) on August 14, 2008.

On August 14, 2008, the Company acquired all of the equity interests of Fezdale, a British Virgin Islands corporation, through a share exchange transaction (the “Share Exchange Transaction”), with the result that the stockholders of Fezdale became the beneficial owners of approximately 86.59% of the Company’s common stock. As a result of such Share Exchange Transaction, Fezdale became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the former shareholders of Fezdale became the Company’s controlling shareholders. Accordingly, all references to shares of Fezdale’s ordinary shares have been restated to reflect the equivalent numbers of the common stock of China Nutrifruit Group Limited.

The share exchange resulted in Fezdale’s former shareholder obtaining a majority voting interest in the Company. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) require that a company whose shareholders retain the majority interest in a combined business be treated as the acquirer for accounting purposes. As a result, in the Share Exchange Transaction, Fezdale is treated as the accounting acquirer and China Nutrifruit Group Limited is treated as the acquired party for accounting purpose. Accordingly, the Share Exchange Transaction has been accounted for a recapitalization of the Company. The equity section of the accompanying financial statements have been restated to reflect the recapitalization of the Company due to the Share Exchange Transaction as of the first day of the first period presented. The assets and liabilities acquired that, for accounting purposes, were deemed to have been acquired by Fezdale were not significant.

Also, on August 14, 2008, our majority shareholder, Yiu Fai Kung (“Mr. Kung”), entered into escrow agreements with the private placement investors and HFG International, Limited (“HFG”). Mr. Kung will deliver a certain number of shares of our common stock owned by him to the investors and HFG pro-rata in accordance with their respective investment amount for no additional consideration if:

(i)

Our after tax net income for our fiscal year ending on March 31, 2009 is less than $13,919,707 and fiscal year ending on March 31, 2010 is less than $18,495,315; and

NOTE 1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

Fezdale Investments Limited

Fezdale is a private limited liability company incorporated in British Virgin Island on August 22, 2007.

In November 2007, Solar Sun Holdings Limited (“Solar Sun”), a subsidiary of Fezdale, entered in a share purchase agreement with six owners of Daqing Longheda Food Company Limited (“Longheda”) under which the six owners of Longheda agreed to transfer an aggregate of 75% equity interests in Longheda to Solar Sun for a total consideration of RMB40,000,000. In May 2008, the six founders of Longheda transferred the remaining 25% equity interests in Longheda to Solar Sun. After the transfer, Longheda became the wholly owned subsidiary of Solar Sun.

Solar Sun Holdings Limited

Solar Sun is a private limited liability company incorporated in Hong Kong on September 12, 2007. Solar Sun is a holding company and has no assets or operations other than its ownership of Longheda.

Daqing Longheda Food Company Limited

Longheda was incorporated in Heilongjiang province of Peoples’ Republic of China in June 2004. Longheda manufactures and sells a variety of food products processed from specialty premium fruits that grow in Northeast China. Currently, Longheda processes 4 types of premium specialty fruits, including golden berry, crab apple, blueberry and raspberry, and sells fresh fruits.

Longheda sells its products through an extensive sales and distribution network covering 19 provinces and 43 cities. The fresh fruits are mainly sold to fruit supermarkets and stores while the processed fruit products are mainly sold to manufacturers for further processing into fruit juice and other fruit or food related products.

Basis of presentation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of China Nutrifruit Group Limited and its subsidiaries (the “Group”). The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the US GAAP. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group include the accounts of China Nutrifruit Group Limited, Fezdale Investments Limited, Solar Sun Holdings Limited and Daqing Longheda Food Company Limited after the date of acquisition. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in our opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals necessary for a fair representation of our condensed consolidated balance sheets, operating results, and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicatives of the annual results for the year ending March 31, 2010. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with the US GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

(Stated in U.S. Dollars)

Use of estimates

The preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Segment information

The Group identifies and classifies its operating segment based on the nature of the products with similar economic characteristics. No segment information is provided as the Group only has one business and geographical segment. The Group’s reportable segment is the manufacture and sale of food products, which the operations are located in PRC and sales were predominately made to customers located in the PRC.

Economic and political risks

The Group’s operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly the Group’s business, financial position may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.

The Group’s operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risk not typically associated with companies in North America. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environmental and foreign currency exchange. The Group’s results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net operating results for the reporting period attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stocks outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net operating results for the reporting period attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stocks outstanding and the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents.

Trade accounts receivable

In the normal course of business, the Group extends credit to customers. Trade accounts receivable, less allowance for doubtful accounts, reflect the net realizable value of receivables, and approximate fair value. On a regular basis, the Group evaluates its trade accounts receivable and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on a combination of specific customer circumstances, credit conditions, and payment history. A receivable is considered past due if payments have not been received within the agreed upon invoice terms. No allowance for doubtful accounts at June 30, 2009 was recorded. Trade accounts receivable is charged off against the allowance after management determines the potential for recovery is remote.

(Stated in U.S. Dollars)

Cash and cash equivalents

The Group considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Inventories

The cost of finished products inventories includes raw materials, direct labor and indirect production costs. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The Group uses first-in, first-out methods to value its inventories. During the idle production period, overhead costs include depreciation are treated as current-period charges, which charge directly to general and administrative expense instead of costs of inventories.

Fair value of financial instruments

The carrying amount of certain of the Group’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, other current assets, other payables and accrued expenses, approximates fair value due to the relatively short maturity.

Property, plant and equipment, net

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. The principal estimated useful lives generally are: buildings – 20 years; leasehold improvements – 10 years; machinery - 10 years, furniture, fixture and equipment – 5 years; motor vehicles – 5 years. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment were $355,102 and $215,508 for the three months period ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 respectively. During the idle period of the plant, depreciation is treated as current-period charges, which charge directly to general and administrative expense.

Negative goodwill

Negative goodwill represents the excess fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination over the purchase price. The negative goodwill is allocated as a pro rata reduction of the amounts assigned to the assets acquired excluding financial assets, deferred taxes and other current assets. If negative goodwill exceeds the amount of those assets, the remaining excess shall be recognized as an extraordinary gain in the period which the business combination is completed.

Revenue recognition

The Group recognizes revenue from sales of products, where persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the seller’s price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. This generally occurs when the customer receives the product or at the time title passes to the customer. Customers generally do not have the right to return product unless damaged or defective. Net sales are comprised of gross sales reduced by customer returns, trade promotions and discounts.

Comprehensive income

Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and other comprehensive income.

Shipping and handling costs

Shipping and handling costs are included in selling expenses. The shipping and handling costs for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 were $711,530 and $205,904 respectively.

Impairment of long-lived assets

Long-lived assets, except goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment when circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to future net cash flows estimated by the Group to be generated by such assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of by sale are recorded as held for sale at the lower of carrying value or estimated net realizable value. During the period, no impairment on long-lived assets was recorded by the Group.

All land in the PRC is owned by the PRC government. The government in the PRC, according to the relevant PRC law, may sell the right to use the land for a specific period of time. Thus, all of the Group’s land located in the PRC is considered to be leasehold land and is stated at cost less accumulated amortization and any recognized impairment loss. Amortization is provided over the term of the land use agreements on a straight-line basis, which is 50 years and will expire in 2055.

Advertising costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The total advertising costs were $4,642 and nil for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 respectively.

Other income recognition

Other income comprised of interest income and others.

Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable, which is the rate that exactly discounts the estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the loan to the loan’s net carrying amount.

Foreign currency translation

The accompanying financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The functional currency of the Group is Renminbi, “RMB”. The financial statements are translated into United States dollars from RMB at year-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred.

No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US$ at the rates used in translation.

Statutory reserves

The laws and regulations of the PRC require before an enterprise distributes profits to its owners, it must first satisfy all tax liabilities, provide for losses in previous years, and make allocations. The statutory reserves include a surplus reserve fund and a common welfare fund. These statutory reserves represent restricted retained earnings. The details of surplus reserve fund and common welfare fund are as follows:

Surplus reserve fund

The Company’s subsidiary in PRC is required, as necessary, to transfer 10 percent of its net income, as determined in accordance with the PRC accounting rules and regulations, to a statutory surplus reserve fund until such reserve balance reaches 50 percent of that subsidiary’s paid-in capital.

The transfer to this reserve must be made before distribution of any dividends to owners. The surplus reserve fund is non-distributable other than during liquidation and can be used to fund previous years' losses, if any, and may be utilized for business expansion or converted into equity by raising equity from existing owners in proportion to their equity holdings.

Common welfare fund

The Company’s subsidiary in PRC is required, as necessary, to transfer 5 percent to 10 percent of its net income, as determined in accordance with the PRC accounting rules and regulations, to the statutory common welfare fund. This fund can only be utilized on capital items for the collective benefit of that subsidiary’s employees, such as construction of dormitories, cafeteria facilities, and other staff welfare facilities. This fund is non-distributable other than upon liquidation. The transfer to this fund must be made before distribution of any dividends to owners.

Related party transactions

A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Group’s securities and their immediate families, (ii) the Group’s management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Group, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the management or operating decisions of the Group. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.

Income taxes

The Group accounts for income taxes under the provision of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (“SFAS 109”) and related interpretations and guidance including FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“Fin 48”), resulting in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense approximates taxes to be paid or refunded for the relevant periods. Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future, as well as from net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, and are measured at the enacted tax laws and rates applicable in the years which the differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A deferred tax asset is recognized if it is more likely than not that a benefit will be realized. The Group’s operations are primarily located in PRC and subject to PRC profits tax.

NOTE 2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”), which provides guidance about how to measure assets and liabilities that use fair value. SFAS 157 apply whenever another US GAAP standard requires (or permits) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value to any new circumstances. This standard also requires additional disclosures in both annual and quarterly reports. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) 157-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease Classification or Measurement under Statement 13 (“FSP 157-1”), which states that SFAS 157 does not address fair value measurements for purposes of lease classification or measurement. In February 2008, the FASB issued FSP 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (“FSP 157-2”), which delays the effective date for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, except for items that are measured at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 157 for its financial assets and liabilities and those items for which it has measured on a recurring basis effective March 31, 2008, and the adoption did not have a material impact on its financial position and results of operations. As provided by FSP 157-2, the Company has elected to defer the adoption of SFAS 157 for certain of its non-financial assets and liabilities and is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 157 on its non-financial assets and liabilities.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”), which is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2008. This standard permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and consequently report unrealized gains and losses on such items in earnings. The Company has elected not to adopt the fair value provisions of SFAS 159 and the adoption of SFAS 159 did not have a significant impact of its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree and the goodwill acquired. SFAS 141(R) also establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141(R) will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and will be adopted by the Company beginning in the first quarter fiscal of 2010. The Company does not expect there to be any significant impact of adopting SFAS 141(R) on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No.51 (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest, and the valuation of retained noncontrolling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. SFAS 160 also establishes disclosure requirements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. SFAS 160 will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and will be adopted by the Company beginning in the first quarter fiscal of 2010. The Company does not expect there to be any significant impact of adopting SFAS 160 on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 achieves these improvements by requiring disclosure of the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format. It also provides more information about an entity’s liquidity by requiring disclosure of derivative features that are credit risk-related. Finally, it requires cross-referencing within footnotes to enable financial statement users to locate important information about derivative instruments. SFAS 161 will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, will be adopted by the Company beginning in the first quarter fiscal of 2010. The Company does not expect there to be any significant impact of adopting SFAS 161 on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In May 2008, FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This Statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy). This Statement is effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The Company does not expect there to be any significant impact of adopting SFAS 162 on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In May 2008, FASB issued SFAS No. 163, Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60. Diversity exists in practice in accounting for financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises under FASB Statement No. 60, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises. That diversity results in inconsistencies in the recognition and measurement of claim liabilities because of differing views about when a loss has been incurred under FASB Statement No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies. This Statement requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default (insured event) when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. This Statement also clarifies how Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium revenue and claim liabilities. Those clarifications will increase comparability in financial reporting of financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises. This Statement requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. The accounting and disclosure requirements of the Statement will improve the quality of information provided to users of financial statements. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect there to be any significant impact of adopting SFAS 163 on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In June 2008, FASB issued FSP EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities . This FSP provides that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. This FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years. All prior-period EPS data presented shall be adjusted retrospectively (including interim financial statements, summaries of earnings, and selected financial data) to conform with the provisions of this FSP. Early application is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting EITF 03-6-1 on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events . SFAS No. 165 establishes principles and standards related to the accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. SFAS 165 requires an entity to recognize, in the financial statements, subsequent events that provide additional information regarding conditions that existed at the balance sheet date. Subsequent events that provide information about conditions that did not exist at the balance sheet date shall not be recognized in the financial statements under SFAS 165. SFAS 165 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending February 28, 2010. The Company does not expect SFAS 165 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or notes to the financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) . SFAS No. 167 was issued to amend FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) to require an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. SFAS No. 167 shall be effective as of the Company’s first annual reporting period and interim reporting periods beginning after November 15, 2009. Earlier application is prohibited. The first such reporting period for the Company will be the fiscal year beginning December 1, 2009. The Company does not expect SFAS 167 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or notes to the financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, The “FASB Accounting Standards Codification” and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles . This standard replaces SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and establishes only two levels of U.S. GAAP, authoritative and nonauthoritative. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the Codification) will become the source of authoritative, nongovernmental GAAP, except for rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission, which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All other nongrandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become nonauthoritative. This standard is effective for financial statements for interim or annual reporting periods ending after September 1, 2009. We will begin to use the new guidelines and numbering system prescribed by the Codification when referring to GAAP in the third quarter fiscal of 2010.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”)), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”), and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial statements.

Deferred tax assets

The source of significant temporary difference that gives rise to the deferred tax asset is as follows:

    June 30,     March 31,  
    2009     2009  
Deferred tax assets:            
Difference between book and tax basis of land use right and property and equipment $  1,347,362   $  1,406,814  
   Less: valuation allowance   -     -  
   Net deferred tax assets $  1,347,362   $  1,406,814  

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that all of the assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in each tax jurisdiction during the periods in which temporary differences in those jurisdictions become deductible. Management considers the projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.

With regard to the US deferred tax assets, the Company believes that it is more likely than not that results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax assets, and therefore no valuation allowance has been provided for these assets.

Income taxes

The Group’s operations are conducted in the PRC and are subject to PRC’s enterprise income tax. Pursuant to the PRC Income Tax Law prior to January 1, 2008, enterprise income taxes were generally imposed at a statutory rate of 33%, which comprised 30% national income tax and 3% local income tax. However, the Group has been granted a preferential tax treatment by the State Tax Bureau of the PRC as the Group was considered as a hi-tech enterprise in the Heilongjiang province. According to the PRC Income Tax Law and various approval documents issued by the Tax Bureau, the Group’s profits for the period prior to 2008 were taxed at a rate of 15%.

On March 16, 2007, the Fifth Plenary Session of the Tenth National People’s Congress passed the Corporate Income Tax Law of the PRC which will take effect on January 1, 2008. According to the new tax law, the applicable corporate income tax rate for domestically-owned enterprises and foreign-invested enterprises are subject to a uniform tax rate of 25%. While the new tax law equalizes the tax rates for domestically-owned and foreign-invested companies, preferential tax treatment would continue to be given to companies in certain encouraged sectors and to enterprises classified as high and new technology companies, whether domestically-owned or foreign-invested enterprises. The new tax law also provides a five-year transition period starting from its effective date for those enterprises which were established before the promulgation date of the new tax law and which were entitled to a preferential tax treatment. The tax rate of such enterprises will transition to the uniform tax of 25% within a five-year transition period.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48, which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax positions, as defined in SFAS No. 109. FIN 48 prescribes a more-likely-than-not threshold for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on de-recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods and income tax disclosures.

The Group adopted the provisions of FIN 48 effective August 22, 2007. Based on its FIN 48 analysis, the Group concluded that the adoption of FIN 48 did not have any impact on the Group’s total liabilities or owners’ equity. The Group’s classifies interests and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expenses. As of June 30, 2009, the Group did not have interests and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Group does not anticipate any significant increases or decrease to its liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.

The provision for income taxes appearing in the consolidated statement of income represents the current tax expenses. A reconciliation of the provision for income tax calculated using the statutory federal income tax rate and state and local income tax rate to the Company’s provision for income taxes for the three months ended June 30 is as follows:

    2009     2008  
Provision for income taxes at statutory rate of 35% $  755,238   $  661,106  
Chinese tax rate difference   (198,243 )   (178,283 )
Non-deductible expenses and non-assessable profits   (83,293 )   (30,724 )
Tax losses not yet recognized   51,987     3,546  
Tax effect of non-deductible temporary difference recognized   59,453     (720,131 )
Under provision in previous year   -     244,908  
Income taxes $  585,142   $  (19,578 )

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, trade payables, other payables and accrued expenses, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments and market rates of interest.

We have four fruit processing lines with an aggregate capacity of 15,960 tons and one beverage production lines with a capacity of 10,800 tons.

First Fiscal Quarter Financial Highlights

We experienced strong demand for our products and significant growth in our revenues this quarter, but our net income decreased slightly primarily as a result of the increased income tax and generally and administrative expenses for being a U.S. public company. The fruit processed product market in China continued to expand in this quarter, due in part to the economic stimulus program initiated by the Chinese government which stimulated the economy and domestic demand in China. We also benefited from having sufficient products in inventory from the last production season which allowed us to meet the increased demand in this quarter. Due to the high demand for our products, we sold almost all of our products produced during last production season and our closing finished products inventory as of June 30, 2009 was approximately $0.6 million. We have started the production for the new season on July 18, 2009. As we expect the demand for our fruit products will continue to grow, we plan to further increase our production capacity. In the meantime, we will continue to focus on reducing costs, increasing sales and improving our operational efficiency.

The following are some of our financial results for the first fiscal quarter of 2010 in comparison to our financial results for the first fiscal quarter of 2009:

  • Net Sales: Net sales increased $4.2 million, or 81.2%, to $9.4 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2010 from $5.2 million for the same period last year, primarily as a result of increased sales volume.
  • Gross Margin: Gross margin was 41.9% for the first fiscal quarter of 2010, as compared to 52.8% for the same period last year.
  • Net Income: Net income decreased $126,463, or 7.4%, to $1.6 million for the first fiscal quarter of 2010, from $1.7 million for the same period last year.
  • Fully diluted earnings per share: Fully diluted earnings per share were $0.0435 for the first fiscal quarter of 2010, as compared to $0.0563 for the same period last year. The decrease in fully diluted net income per share was mainly because more shares of our common stock were outstanding in this quarter as a result of the shares issued in connection with the private placement transaction and share exchange transaction last year.

Taxation

United States

China Nutrifruit Group Limited is subject to United States income tax at a tax rate of 35%. No provision for income taxes in the United States has been made as China Nutrifruit had no income taxable in the United States during the three months ended June 30, 2009.

PRC

A company registered in China used to be subject to national and local income taxes within China at the applicable tax rate on the taxable income as reported in its PRC statutory financial statements in accordance with relevant income tax laws. Under the Provisional Regulation of the People’s Republic of China on Enterprise Income Tax effective as from January 1, 1994, income tax was generally payable by enterprises at a rate of 33% of their taxable income.

In 2007, China passed the new Enterprise Income Tax Law (the “New EIT Law”) and its implementing rules, both of which became effective on January 1, 2008. The New EIT Law significantly curtails tax incentives granted to foreign-invested enterprises under the previous law. The New EIT Law, however, (i) reduces the statutory rate of enterprise income tax from 33% to 25%, (ii) permits companies to continue to enjoy their existing tax incentives, adjusted by certain transitional phase-out rules, and (iii) introduces new tax incentives, subject to various qualification criteria. Longheda has been subject to a tax rate of 25% since 2008. We expect that the tax rate of 25% currently applicable to Longheda will remain unchanged in 2009.

Substantially all of our income may be derived from dividends received from our PRC operating subsidiary Longheda. The New EIT Law and its implementing rules generally, for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, provide that a 10% withholding tax applies to China-sourced income derived by non-resident enterprises whose jurisdiction of incorporation has signed a tax treaty with China. Since China and US have signed a tax treaty to avoid double taxation, we expect that such 10% withholding tax will apply to dividends paid to us by our PRC subsidiary but this treatment will depend on our status as a non-resident enterprise.

Results of Operations

We discuss below our results of operations based on the unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2009 and 2008. Our subsidiary Solar Sun acquired 75% of the ownership of Longheda on November 12, 2007 and the remaining 25% on May 21, 2008. For the period from April 1, 2008 to May 21, 2008, we reflect 75% of the results of Longheda in our condensed consolidated financial statements. For the period from May 21, 2008 to June 30, 2008, we reflect 100% of the results of Longheda in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2008

The following table sets forth key components of our results of operations for the periods indicated, in dollars and as a percentage of sales revenue.

The functional currency of the Company is RMB, however, our financial information is expressed in USD. The results of operations reported in the table above is based on the exchange rate of RMB 6.83992 to $1 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and the rate of RMB 6.96957 to $1 for the three months ended June 30, 2008.

Net Sales . Our net sales consist of revenue derived from the sale of our fruit and fruit based products. Net sales increased $4.2 million, or 81.2% to $9.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. The increase was mainly attributable to the increased sales volume of our products. Market demand for our products was strong in this quarter, due, in part, to the Chinese government’s economic stimulus program which stimulated domestic demand and economy. We also had more sufficient inventory in this quarter than the same period last year. Due to the strong demand, we sold almost all of our stored products and our closing finished products inventory was approximately $0.6 million as of June 30, 2009. We have commenced our fruit process production on July 18, 2009 and believe that we will have sufficient products to meet the market demand in the near future. However, as we expect the demand for our fruit products will continue to grow, we plan to further increase our production capacity.

Cost of Sales . Our cost of sales is primarily comprised of the costs of our raw materials, labor, overhead and sales tax. Our cost of sales increased $3.0 million, or 123.2%, to $5.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. This increase was primarily due to increase in sales volume. We also sold a higher percentage of fruit concentrate and concentrate pulp products which generally have a higher per unit cost in compare to glazed fruit and nectar products. The percentage of revenue generated from fruit concentrate, glazed fruit, nectar and concentrate pulp products for the 3 months period ended June 30, 2009 were approximately 38.8%, 11.1%, 9.0% and 29.8% as compared to 28.9%, 26.9%, 27.5% and 0% for the same period last year, respectively.

28


Gross Profit . Our gross profit is equal to our net revenues less our cost of sales. Our gross profit increased by $1.2 million to $3.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $2.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 41.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2009 as compared to 52.8% for the same period last year. The decrease in gross margin was mainly because we sold a higher percentage of fruit concentrate and concentrate pulp products in the three months period ended June 30, 2009 which had a relatively lower margin as compared to glazed fruit and nectar products. The gross margin for fruit concentrate, glazed fruit, nectar and concentrate pulp products for the 3 months period ended June 30, 2009 were 36.2%, 65.5%, 67.3% and 38.1%, as compared to 42.9%, 65.5%, 69.5% and 0% for the same period last year, respectively.

Selling and General and Administrative Expenses . Our selling and general and administrative expenses increased $1.0 million, or 124.4%, to $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $789,649 for the three months ended June 30, 2008.

Our selling expenses include sales commissions, transportation cost, the cost of advertising and promotional materials, salaries and fringe benefits of sales personnel and other sales related costs. The selling expenses increased $425,950 or 105.7%, to $828,749 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $402,799 for the three months ended June 30, 2008. It was 1.1% increase in percentage of net sales from 7.8% for three months ended June 30, 2008 to 8.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The increase was primarily attributed to increase in sales volume and increase in transportation cost.

Our general and administrative expenses include the costs associated with staff and support personnel who manage our business activities and professional fees paid to third parties. Our general and administrative expenses increased $556,254 or 143.8%, to $943,104 for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $386,850 for the three months ended June 30, 2008. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2009 increased by 2.6% to 10.1%, as compared to 7.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2008. This percentage increase was primarily attributable to the increase of the professional fee and other expenses incurred by the company for being a U.S. public company after the reverse acquisition transaction on August 14, 2008.

Interest Expenses. We did not have any interest expenses for the quarter because we had repaid all outstanding bank loans on March 26, 2009.

Income before Noncontrolling Interests and Income Taxes . Income before noncontrolling interests and income taxes increased $268,949, or 14.2%, to $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008. Income before noncontrolling interests and income taxes as a percentage of net sales decreased from 36.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2008 to 23.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The percentage decrease was primarily attributed to the decrease in gross margin and increase in general and administrative expenses as discuss above.

Provision for Income Tax . We incurred income tax expense of $585,142 and $(19,578) during the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The provision of income tax for PRC tax for the three months period ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 were $525,690 and $700,553, respectively. The negative provision for the taxation of $19,578 was due to the deferred tax of $720,131 arising from the temporary difference recognized from the 25% of equity interest of Longheda acquired by Solar Sun in May 2008.

Net Income . Our net income decreased $126,463 or 7.4%, to $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 from $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008, mainly as a result of the increase in general and administrative expenses and income taxes as discussed above..

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2009, we had cash and cash equivalents of $15.9 million. The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of the period   4,769     7,104  
Cash and cash equivalents at end of period   15,855     6,257  

Cash Flows from Operating Activities.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $11.1 million for three months ended June 30, 2009, an increase of $12.1 million from $1.0 million net cash used in operating activities for three months ended June 30, 2008. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to decrease in trade receivables and inventory of $7.6 million and $3.0 million for three months ended June 30, 2009, respectively. We recorded high sales in the quarter ended March 31, 2009 and the $11.4 million trade receivables as of March 31, 2009 were fully collected in this quarter. In addition, our sales in this quarter were mainly finished products inventory processed in the last production season. We commenced this season’s production in July 2009.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities .

We had no investing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities .

We had no financing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.

As of June 30, 2009, we did not have any outstanding bank loans. We believe that our currently available working capital should be adequate to sustain our operations at our current levels through at least the next twelve months. We may require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions, implementation of our strategy to expand our production capacity or other investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue. If our own financial resources are insufficient to satisfy our capital requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain additional credit facilities. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, could limit our ability to expand our business operations and could harm our overall business prospects.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are those we believe are most important to portraying our financial conditions and results of operations and also require the greatest amount of subjective or complex judgments by management. Judgments and uncertainties regarding the application of these policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under various conditions or using different assumptions. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”), which provides guidance about how to measure assets and liabilities that use fair value. SFAS 157 apply whenever another US GAAP standard requires (or permits) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value but does not expand the use of fair value to any new circumstances. This standard also requires additional disclosures in both annual and quarterly reports. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) 157-1, Application of FASB Statement No. 157 to FASB Statement No. 13 and Other Accounting Pronouncements That Address Fair Value Measurements for Purposes of Lease Classification or Measurement under Statement 13 (“FSP 157-1”), which states that SFAS 157 does not address fair value measurements for purposes of lease classification or measurement. In February 2008, the FASB issued FSP 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (“FSP 157-2”), which delays the effective date for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, except for items that are measured at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 157 for its financial assets and liabilities and those items for which it has measured on a recurring basis effective January 1, 2008, and the adoption did not have a material impact on its financial position and results of operations. As provided by FSP 157-2, the Company has elected to defer the adoption of SFAS 157 for certain of its non-financial assets and liabilities and is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 157 on its non-financial assets and liabilities.

30


In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”), which is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2008. This standard permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and consequently report unrealized gains and losses on such items in earnings. The Company has elected not to adopt the fair value provisions of SFAS 159 and the adoption of SFAS 159 did not have a significant impact of its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree and the goodwill acquired. SFAS 141(R) also establishes disclosure requirements to enable the evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141(R) will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and will be adopted by the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2009. The Company does not expect there to be any significant impact of adopting SFAS 141(R) on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No.51 (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest, and the valuation of retained noncontrolling equity investments when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. SFAS 160 also establishes disclosure requirements that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. SFAS 160 will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and will be adopted by the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2009. The Company does not expect there to be any significant impact of adopting SFAS 160 on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 achieves these improvements by requiring disclosure of the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses in a tabular format. It also provides more information about an entity’s liquidity by requiring disclosure of derivative features that are credit risk-related. Finally, it requires cross-referencing within footnotes to enable financial statement users to locate important information about derivative instruments. SFAS 161 will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, will be adopted by the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2009. The Company does not expect there to be any significant impact of adopting SFAS 161 on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In May 2008, FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles . This Statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy). This Statement is effective 60 days following the SEC's approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The Company does not expect there to be any significant impact of adopting SFAS 162 on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

31


In May 2008, FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards No. 163, Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60 . Diversity exists in practice in accounting for financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises under FASB Statement No. 60, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises. That diversity results in inconsistencies in the recognition and measurement of claim liabilities because of differing views about when a loss has been incurred under FASB Statement No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies. This Statement requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default (insured event) when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. This Statement also clarifies how Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium revenue and claim liabilities. Those clarifications will increase comparability in financial reporting of financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises. This Statement requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. The accounting and disclosure requirements of the Statement will improve the quality of information provided to users of financial statements. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect there to be any significant impact of adopting SFAS 163 on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

In June 2008, FASB issued FSP EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted Share-Based Payment Transactions are Participating Securities . This FSP provides that unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. This FSP is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years. All prior-period EPS data presented shall be adjusted retrospectively (including interim financial statements, summaries of earnings, and selected financial data) to conform with the provisions of this FSP. Early application is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting EITF 03-6-1 on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events . SFAS No. 165 establishes principles and standards related to the accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. SFAS 165 requires an entity to recognize, in the financial statements, subsequent events that provide additional information regarding conditions that existed at the balance sheet date. Subsequent events that provide information about conditions that did not exist at the balance sheet date shall not be recognized in the financial statements under SFAS 165. SFAS 165 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year ending February 28, 2010. The Company does not expect SFAS 165 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or notes to the financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) . SFAS No. 167 was issued to amend FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) to require an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. SFAS No. 167 shall be effective as of the Company’s first annual reporting period and interim reporting periods beginning after November 15, 2009. Earlier application is prohibited. The first such reporting period for the Company will be the fiscal year beginning December 1, 2009. The Company does not expect SFAS 167 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or notes to the financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, The “FASB Accounting Standards Codification” and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles . This standard replaces SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, and establishes only two levels of U.S. GAAP, authoritative and nonauthoritative. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the Codification) will become the source of authoritative, nongovernmental GAAP, except for rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission, which are sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. All other nongrandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become nonauthoritative. This standard is effective for financial statements for interim or annual reporting periods ending after September 1, 2009. We will begin to use the new guidelines and numbering system prescribed by the Codification when referring to GAAP in the third quarter fiscal of 2010.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”)), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”), and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Seasonality

The harvest season for our source fruits are generally from mid July to mid November every year. As fruits collected cannot be stored at room temperature for a long time, they must be processed as soon as they are harvested. Our fruit processing production is generally from mid July to mid November every year. Our fruit beverage production lasts throughout the year since the raw materials we use are not subject to seasonal effect.

Due to the nature of our business, we will generally experience higher sales in the second and third fiscal quarters mainly due to distributors’ (i) efforts to obtain adequate supply of our fruit processing products before the supply diminishes after production ceases in November; and (ii) anticipation of higher demand for fruit processed products as a result of festive seasons at the end of the year and beginning of the following year such as Christmas and the Chinese spring festival.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable.

ITEMS 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information that would be required to be disclosed in Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Jinglin Shi, and Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Colman Cheng, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2009. Based on our assessment, Mr. Shi and Mr. Cheng determined that, as of June 30, 2009, and as of the date that the evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was completed, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to satisfy the objectives for which they are intended.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation performed during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

33


PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to factors and risks mentioned in the "Risk Factors" sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2009, under the New EIT Law, we may be classified as a “resident enterprise” of China. Such classification will likely result in unfavorable tax consequences to us and our non-PRC shareholders.

China passed a new Enterprise Income Tax Law, or the New EIT Law, and its implementing rules, both of which became effective on January 1, 2008. Under the New EIT Law, an enterprise established outside of China with “de facto management bodies” within China is considered a “resident enterprise,” meaning that it can be treated in a manner similar to a Chinese enterprise for enterprise income tax purposes. The implementing rules of the New EIT Law define de facto management as “substantial and overall management and control over the production and operations, personnel, accounting, and properties” of the enterprise.

On April 22, 2009, the State Administration of Taxation issued the Notice Concerning Relevant Issues Regarding Cognizance of Chinese Investment Controlled Enterprises Incorporated Offshore as Resident Enterprises pursuant to Criteria of de facto Management Bodies, or the Notice, further interpreting the application of the New EIT Law and its implementation non-Chinese enterprise or group controlled offshore entities. Pursuant to the Notice, an enterprise incorporated in an offshore jurisdiction and controlled by a Chinese enterprise or group will be classified as a “non-domestically incorporated resident enterprise” if (i) its senior management in charge of daily operation reside or perform their duties mainly in China; (ii) its financial or personnel decisions are made or approved by bodies or persons in China; (iii) its substantial properties, accounting books, corporate chops, board and shareholder minutes are kept in China; and (iv) ½ directors with voting rights or senior management often resident in China. Such resident enterprise would be subject to an enterprise income tax rate of 25% on its worldwide income and must pay a withholding tax at a rate of 10% when paying dividends to its non-PRC shareholders. However, it remains unclear as to whether the Notice is applicable to an offshore enterprise incorporated by a Chinese natural person. Nor are detailed measures on imposition of tax from non-domestically incorporated resident enterprises are available. Therefore, it is unclear how tax authorities will determine tax residency based on the facts of each case.

However, as our case substantially meets the foregoing criteria, there is a likelihood that we are deemed to be a resident enterprise by Chinese tax authorities. If the PRC tax authorities determine that we are a “resident enterprise” for PRC enterprise income tax purposes, a number of unfavorable PRC tax consequences could follow. First, we may be subject to the enterprise income tax at a rate of 25% on our worldwide taxable income as well as PRC enterprise income tax reporting obligations. In our case, this would mean that income such as interest on financing proceeds and non-China source income would be subject to PRC enterprise income tax at a rate of 25%. Second, although under the New EIT Law and its implementing rules dividends paid to us from our PRC subsidiary would qualify as “tax-exempt income,” we cannot guarantee that such dividends will not be subject to a 10% withholding tax, as the PRC foreign exchange control authorities, which enforce the withholding tax, have not yet issued guidance with respect to the processing of outbound remittances to entities that are treated as resident enterprises for PRC enterprise income tax purposes. Finally, it is possible that future guidance issued with respect to the new “resident enterprise” classification could result in a situation in which a 10% withholding tax is imposed on dividends we pay to our non-PRC shareholders and with respect to gains derived by our non-PRC shareholders from transferring our shares. We are actively monitoring the possibility of “resident enterprise” treatment for the 2009 tax year and are evaluating appropriate organizational changes to avoid this treatment, to the extent possible.

If we were treated as a “resident enterprise” by PRC tax authorities, we would be subject to taxation in both the U.S. and China, and our PRC tax may not be creditable against our U.S. tax.
