ORS Orsus Xelent Technolgies New Common Stock

Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc. (NYSE Amex: ORS), a China-based designer and manufacturer of award-winning mobile phones for the Asian market, announced today the Company anticipates sales for the year ended December 31, 2010 of approximately $25.1 million (unaudited), compared with $77.4 million in 2009. The Company said that preliminary unaudited results for the fourth quarter 2010 indicate sales in the period of $5.1 million, on which the Company achieved a small net profit of approximately $235,000. As a consequence, the Company anticipates trimming its net loss in 2010 to ($349,775) compared with a reported net loss in 2009 of approximately ($6.4 million). The Company expects to report audited results on March 31, 2011.

Competitive Environment

Mr. Guoji Liu, the CEO of the Company, explained that of the 400,950 cell phones sold by the Company in 2010, approximately 71% were low margin products sold for between RMB 500 to RMB 1,200, as the Company sought to maintain market position in the midst of the continuing market reshuffling by the major telecom carriers. The overall number of cell phone users in China was up 15.7% during the year. However, in the fourth quarter, as telecom networks were upgraded, competition was particularly fierce in smart phones on 3-G platforms as the telecom carriers launched a series of campaigns to build market share with ultra-cheap phones. Low end CDMA phone sales also increased as many customers shifted to them from Xiao Linton phones. According to Mr. Liu, the Company was slow to react to the shift in the market, and did not penetrate the carriers to gain subsidies achieved by other cell phone makers.

Hopeful About 2011

Looking ahead, Mr. Liu said, "In 2011 the Company will be more attuned to the needs of the carriers and cooperate with them on their needs for low-end devices." He added, "At the same time, we also will try to increase our sales of high-end devices to increase our profit margins. To support this, we plan to spend more on R& D to build devices on advanced platforms in line with anticipated industry trends, and modulate our business strategy as we are hopeful we will achieve better results during the year."

Other Matters

The Company reported that more than two-thirds of shareholders approved a proposal at the Annual Meeting of shareholders on December 30, 2010, to permit the Board of Directors to authorize a reverse split of the Company's common stock with a ratio of up to 30 to 1. Shareholders also elected five directors and approved the appointment of independent auditors.
