MANAGEMENT'S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
|
FORWARD-LOOKING
INFORMATION - Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
("MD&A") includes "forward-looking statements". All statements, other than
statements of historical facts, included in this report regarding the Company's
financial position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management of
the Company for future operations are forward-looking statements. These
forward-looking statements rely on a number of assumptions concerning future
events and are subject to a number of uncertainties and other factors, many of
which are outside of the Company's control that could cause actual results to
materially differ from such statements. While the Company believes that the
assumptions concerning future events are reasonable, it cautions that there are
inherent difficulties in predicting certain important factors, especially,
the prospects for future acquisitions; the competition in the solar hot water
product market, the competition in the solar water heaters and boilers industry
and the impact of such competition on pricing, revenues and margins; and
the cost of attracting and retaining highly skilled personnel.
Overview
We are
engaged in the solar and renewable energy business in the People's Republic of
China (“PRC”). Our business is conducted through our wholly owned PRC
based operating subsidiaries, Bazhou Deli Solar, BeijingDeli Solar, and our
indirect subsidiaries Tianjin Huaneng (majority owned) and SZPSP.
The
Company has four reportable segment: solar heater/biomass stove/boiler related
products, heat pipe related products, energy-saving projects and other products,
which includes heat exchangers and other products that fall outside of the first
three segments.
Bazhou
Deli Solar designs, manufactures and sells renewable energy systems to produce
hot water and for space heating in the PRC. Bazhou Deli Solar’s principal
products are solar hot water heaters and multifunctional space heaters,
including coal-fired boilers for residential use. Bazhou Deli Solar also sells
component parts for its products and provides after-sales maintenance and repair
services.
Beijing
Deli Solar is principally engaged in the installation of large solar water
heaters in construction projects in major cities in the PRC, including Beijing.
However, so far there is no revenue derived from Beijing Deli
Solar.
Tianjin
Huaneng manufactures heating products such as heating pipes, heat exchangers,
specialty heating pipes and tubes, high temperature hot blast stoves, heating
filters, normal pressure water boilers, solar energy water heaters and
radiators.
SZPSP is
principally engaged in the manufacture of solar hot water systems for commercial
use. Its customers include factories, hospitals, schools and hotels. SZPSP’s
solar energy products include flat plate solar collectors, solar water heater
systems, central solar water heater system and solar energy photovoltaic
technology. Our customers include factories, hospitals, schools and
hotels. SZPSP’s solar energy products include flat plate solar collectors, solar
water heater systems, central solar water heater system and solar energy
photovoltaic technology, etc.
Approximately
46.8% of our sales revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 were
derived from sales of our solar water heaters/biomass stove/boiler related
products, 30.8% derived from sales of heat pipe related product 16.9% derived
from sales of our energy saving projects, and 5.5% derived from sales of others.
Approximately 76% of our sales revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2008 were derived from sales made to PRC based customers, with the remaining 24%
from the international market.
Recent
Developments
In 2008,
the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Deli Solar Holding Ltd. entered into an
agreement with Shenzhen Fuwaysun Technology Co., Ltd. (“Fuwaysun”) pursuant to
which Deli Solar Holding acquired the outstanding shares of Fuwaysun. Deli Solar
Holding loaned $3,000,000 to Fuwaysun, which amount will automatically become
part of the purchase price in the event both parties complete the share transfer
and investment plan agreed on between the parties within six months from the
date of execution of the agreement. In the event the parties do not
complete the share transfer and investment plan within six months from the date
of execution of the agreement Fuwaysun will return the principal amount of the
loan plus interest to Deli Solar Holding. In the event the parties do
not complete the share transfer and investment plan within six months from the
date of execution of the agreement Fuwaysun shall return the principal amount of
the loan plus interest to Deli Solar Holding. On April 9, 2009, the
Board approved an amendment to the Fuwaysun agreement to extend the period of
time for the consummation of the Fuwaysun Acquisition until June 30,
2009.
On
September 6, 2006, the Company entered into an Agreement of Intent on Share
Transfer (“Xiongri Agreement”) to acquire 60% of the outstanding equity interest
of Shenzhen Xiongri Solar Energy Heating Co., Ltd. (“Xiongri”) from its sole
shareholder (“Xiongri Acquisition”). Among other things, pursuant to
the Xiongri Agreement, the Company agreed to loan to the shareholder of Xiongri
two loans in the aggregate amount of RMB 10,000,000, which loans would serve as
a purchase price payment in the Xiongri Acquisition if Xiongri reached certain
net profits in 2006, as specified in the Xiongri Agreement. On April
9, 2009, the Board approved an amendment to the Xiongri Agreement to extend the
time period for the consummation of the Xiongri Acquisition, including all
closing conditions to be performed as set forth in the Xiongri Agreement,
to June 30, 2009.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make judgments,
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated
financial statements and accompanying notes. Note 2 to the consolidated
financial statements describe the significant accounting policies and methods
used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The areas
described below are affected by critical accounting estimates and are impacted
significantly by judgments and assumptions in the preparation of the
consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ materially from
the amounts reported based on these critical accounting estimates.
Revenue
Recognition
Product
sales are recognized when the products are delivered to and inspected by
customers and title has passed. Bazhou Deli Solar provides a three-year standard
warranty on all of the products it manufactures. Under this standard warranty
program, repair and replacement of defective component parts are free of any
charge during the first year following the purchase. In the second and third
year, replacement parts must be paid for by the customer but not the labor. Most
of our warranty services are performed by our independent sales agents and
distributors in return for a 1-2% discount of the purchase price they pay for
our products. Accordingly, we have recorded no liability for warranty reserve.
We also allow our sales agents and distributors to return any defective product
for exchange.
Sales-type
leases
The
Company engages in installing energy-saving facilities and leases the equipment
to customers. The Company will transfer all benefits, risks and ownership of the
leased property to the customers at the end of the lease term. The Company's
investment cost in these projects is recorded as Sales-type leases in accordance
with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 13,
“Accounting
for Leases
" and its various amendments and interpretations. The sales and cost of goods
sold is recognized at the point of sales. The investment in sales-type lease
consists of the sum of the total minimum lease payments receivable less unearned
interest income. Unearned interest income is amortized to income over the lease
term as to produce a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in
the lease. The gross investment on sales-type lease is recorded as net of
unearned interest Income.
Sales-type
leases are generally placed in a non-accrual status (i.e., no revenue is
recognized) when payments are more than 90 days past due. Additionally,
management periodically reviews the credit worthiness of all sales-type lessees
with payments outstanding less than 90 days. Based upon management's judgment,
sales-type lessees with balances less than 90 days delinquent may be placed in a
non-accrual status. Leases placed on non-accrual status are only returned to an
accrual status when the account has been brought current and management believes
recovery of the remaining unpaid lease payments is probable.
Allowance
for Doubtful Accounts
Our
business operations are conducted in the PRC. We extend unsecured trade credit
to our relatively large customers according to their sales volume and historical
payment records. The allowance for doubtful accounts is established through
charges to the provision for bad debts. We regularly evaluate the adequacy of
the allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical trends in collections
and write-offs, our judgment as to the probability of collecting accounts and
our evaluation of business risk. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it
requires estimates that are susceptible to revision as more information becomes
available. Accounts are determined to be uncollectible when the debt is deemed
to be worthless or only recoverable in part and are written off at that time
through a charge against the allowance.
Property,
Plant and Equipment
Building,
plant and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and
amortization. Depreciation and amortization are recorded utilizing the
straight-line method over the estimated original useful lives of the assets.
Amortization of leasehold improvements is calculated on a straight-line basis
over the life of the asset or the term of the lease, whichever is shorter. Major
renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated; maintenance and
repairs that do not extend the life of the respective assets are charged to
expense as incurred. Upon disposal of assets, the cost and related accumulated
depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in
income. Depreciation related to property and equipment used in production is
reported in cost of sales.
Long-term
assets of the Company are reviewed annually as to whether their carrying value
has become impaired. We consider assets to be impaired if the carrying value
exceeds the future projected cash flows from related operations. We also
re-evaluate the periods of amortization to determine whether subsequent events
and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives. As of December 31,
2008, we expect these assets to be fully recoverable.
Business
Combinations, Goodwill and intangible assets.
We
account for business combinations in accordance with SFAS No. 141,
Business Combinations
, which
requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business
combinations. SFAS 141 requires intangible assets acquired in a business
combination to be recognized and reported separately from goodwill.
Goodwill
represents the cost of the acquired businesses in excess of the fair value of
identifiable tangible and intangible net assets purchased. We generally seek the
assistance of independent valuation experts in determining the fair value of the
identifiable tangible and intangible net assets of the acquired business. We
assign all the assets and liabilities of the acquired business, including
goodwill, to reporting units in accordance with SFAS No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets
.
We test
goodwill for impairment on an annual basis. In this process, we rely on a number
of factors including operating results, business plans and future cash flows.
Recoverability of goodwill is evaluated using a two-step process. The first step
involves a comparison of the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying
value. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the
second step of the process involves a comparison of the fair value and carrying
value of the goodwill of that reporting unit. If the carrying value of the
goodwill of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of that goodwill, an
impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess. Goodwill of a
reporting unit will be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event
occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair
value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount.
We
evaluate intangible assets for recoverability whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the
carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected
to be generated by the asset. If these assets are considered to be impaired, the
impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying
value of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
Impairment
of long-lived assets
In
accordance with SFAS No. 144,
“
Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”
, a long-lived assets and
certain identifiable intangible assets held and used by the Company are reviewed
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to
be held and used is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of assets
to estimated undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets.
If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is
measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the
fair value of the assets.

Overall:
Sales increased to $51,498,996 for 2008 as compared to $37,072,346 for 2007, an
increase of approximately $14,426,650 or 38.9%. This increase was primarily due
to increased sales by Tianjin Huaneng and SZPSP. We acquired Tianjin Huaneng and
commenced selling heat pipe related products on July 1, 2007. We acquired the
entire equity interest in SZPSP in March 2008.
Solar Water
Heater/Biomass Stove/Boiler Related Pr
oducts
:
Sales revenues of this product segment decreased to $25,098,563 for 2008 from
$26,693,850 for 2007, a decrease of $1,595,287 or 6.0%. The decrease in
sales of these products was primarily because we added a fourth segment—solar
heat collectors and others—and accounted for the sales revenue of certain
products under this fourth segment instead of the solar water heater/biomass
stove/boiler related products segment as we did in 2007. To a lesser extent,
this decline was also due to a decrease in the selling prices of our solar water
heaters and boiler related products, which constituted the vast majority of our
total sales of this segment. The prices of our solar water heaters and boiler
related products have been declining due to increased competition.
Heat Pipe Related
Products:
Sales revenues increased to $14,369,716 in 2008 from $7,002,015
in 2007, an increase of $7,367,701 or 105.2%. This increase was mainly due to
the fact that we did not begin to sell heat pipe related products until we
acquired Tianjin Huaneng on July 1, 2007.
Energy-saving
projects:
Sales revenues increased to $9,078,203 for 2008 from $3,376,481
for 2007, an increase of $5,701,722 or168.9%. This increase was mainly due
to our acquisition of SZPSP in March 2008.
Solar Heat
col
lectors and
others:
Sales revenues were $2,952,514 for 2008 as compared to none for
2007. We did not account for these products as a separate segment prior to 2008.
We added this segment in 2008 after we acquired SZPSP and had more sales of
these products.

$43,302,160 for 2008, an increase of $14,530,082 or 50.5% from $28,772,078 for
2007. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in our material
costs, generally in line with our increased sales revenues.
Solar Water
Heaters/Biomass Stove/Boiler Related
Products
:
Cost of revenue decreased $280,133, or 1.3%, to $20,741,274 for 2008 from
$21,021,407 for 2007, mainly because we accounted for certain products under the
solar heat collector and others segment in 2008 instead of this segment as we
did in 2007.
Heat Pipe Related
Products:
Cost of revenue increased to $12, 618,787 for 2008, an increase
of $7,437,296 or 143.5% from $5,181,491 for the prior year. This increase was
primarily attributable to the increased cost of steel during the first nine
months of 2008.
Energy-saving

As a result of the foregoing, gross profit for 2008 was $8,196,836, compared to
$8,300,268 for 2007, a decrease of $103,432 or 1.2%.
Gross
margin (gross profit as a percentage of sales) in 2008 was approximately 15.9%
compared to approximately 22.4% in 2007. Our profit margin decreased in 2008
primarily because a decrease in the selling prices of our products as we faced
increased competition in the industry.
Solar
Heater/Biomass Stove/Boiler Related Products
: Gross profit from this
segment decreased to $4,357,289 in 2008 from approximately $5,672,443 for 2007,
or a decrease of $1,315,154 or 23.2%. The decrease in gross profit is due
primarily to two factors. First, we accounted for certain products under the
solar heat collector and others segment in 2008 instead of this segment as we
did in 2007. Second, the selling prices were lower in 2008 as we faced increased
competition from our competitors. Accordingly, our gross margin for this segment
also decreased in 2008 to 18.4% as compared to 21.2% in 2007.
Heat Pipe Related
Products:
Gross profit on the sale of heat pipe related products
decreased by $ 69,595, or 3.8%, to $1,750,929 for 2008 from $1,820,524 for 2007.
Gross margin (gross profit as a percentage of sales of these products) decreased
to 12.2% in 2008 from approximately 26.0% for 2007.
Energy-saving
projects:
Gross profit increased to $1,576,040 for 2008 from
$807,300 for 2007, reflecting an increase of $768,740 or 95.2%. This
increase was mainly due to the fact that we acquired SZPSP in March 2008. Gross
margin (gross profit as a percentage of sales of these products), however,
decreased to 17.4% in 2008 from approximately 23.9% for 2007.
Solar Heat
collector and others:
Gross profit was $ 512,578 for 2008 since
we did not account for these products as a separate segment prior to
2008.
Operating
Expenses
Operating
expenses increased to $9,294,723 for 2008 as compared to $5,114,634 for 2007.
This represented an increase of $4,180,089 or about 81.7%.
Depreciation
and amortization increased by $889,432, or 314.5%, to $1,172,254 for 2008 from
$282,822 for 2007, mainly due to our depreciation and amortization by Tianjin
Huaneng and SZPSP.
Selling
and distribution expenses increased to $3,995,401 for 2008 from $827,839 for
2007, representing an increase of $3,167,562, or 382.6%, due to increases in
marketing and promotional expenses by our sales force, and in salary and
benefits associated with the expansion of our sales force, including through our
acquisition of Tianjin Huaneng and SZPSP.
General
and administrative expenses increased by $123,096, or 3.1%, to $4,127,069 for
2008 from $4,003,973 for 2007. This increase included liquidated damages of
approximately $523,026 paid to certain investors due to our delay in effecting a
registration pursuant to our registration rights agreement with such investors
in our February 2008 private placement. The increase was also attributable to
the consolidation of SZPSP and expenses such as legal fees related to our
February 2008 private placement.
Income
(loss) from Operations:
As a
result of the foregoing, income from operations for 2008 was -$1,097,887, as
compared to $3,185,634, representing a decrease of $4,283,521 or
134.5%.
Total
Other Income (Expenses)
Total
other expenses were $3,392,972 in 2008, as compared to total other income of
$154,576 for 2007. Total other expenses comprised mostly losses on non-recurring
items of $3,012,488.12, including goodwill impairment of $2,314,389 related to
our acquisition of SZPSP and inventory write-downs by Tianjin Huaneng of
$101,799 (RMB695753) and Deli Solar (Bazhou) of $71,544 (RMB488,975) for
obsolete inventories.
Income
Taxes
Our
income taxes decreased to $193,418 in 2008 from $615,325 in 2007, primarily due
to reduced income by certain of our PRC subsidiaries.
Minority
Interest
Minority
Interests were $818,893 for 2008 as compared to $199,744 for 2007 due to share
of profits by minority interests from consolidation with Tianjin
Huaneng.
Net
Income (Loss)
As a
result of the foregoing, we incurred a net loss of $5,503,170 in 2008, as
compared to net income of $2,525,141 for 2007.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash
used in our operating activities was $4,637,112 for 2008, as compared to net
cash provided by operations of $4,673,831 for 2007. This was mainly due to an
increase in inventories, an increase in payments made in advance to suppliers,
and our increased production costs for energy saving projects.
Net cash
used in investing activities was $9,007,996 for 2008, as compared to $5,419,926
for 2007. The increase was due to acquisition of SZPSP, purchase of additional
equity interests from Tianjin Huaneng minority shareholders and contribution to
additional registered capital of Tianjin Huaneng, and the purchase of new
facilities and assembly lines in connection with the SZPSP
acquisition.
Net cash
provided by financing activities was $10,102,656 for 2008, as compared to
$2,400,306 for 2007. The increase was primarily due to the purchase of 4,691,499
shares of common stock by the investors in our February 2008 private placement
and the exercise of 75,000 warrants.
We
believe that current cash will be sufficient to meet anticipated working capital
and capital expenditures. However, we need to require additional cash resources
for future developments of business, including any investments we may decide to
pursue.
Cash
Cash and
cash equivalents decreased to $2,404,996 at December 31, 2008 from $5,466,637 at
December 31, 2007. This was primarily due to two loans we made to Shenzhen
Fuwaysun Technology Co., Ltd. in the amount of $3,000,000 and RMB3,000,000
($424,352) and our increased spending on working capital and capital
expenditures, partially offset by the net proceeds of $9,995,156 we received
from the sale of stock to investors in February 2008. While we anticipate that
our cash flow will be sufficient to support our operations for the next 12
months, we will need to raise additional equity capital to make further
acquisitions. There can be no assurance that financing will be available to us,
or that if available, that it will be available on satisfactory
terms.
Accounts
Receivable
During
2008, accounts receivable, net decreased by 18.9% to $ 6,040,065 from $7,453,009
at the end of 2007, primarily due to our acquisition of Tianjin Huaneng and
SZPSP. Tianjin Huaneng and SZPSP both have a large balance of accounts
receivable. SZPSP engages in installing energy-saving facilities and leasing the
equipment facilities to customers.
We
evaluate the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts based on specifically
identified amounts that we believe to be uncollectible. If actual collections
experience changes, revisions to the allowance may be required. Based upon the
aforementioned criteria, the allowances for doubtful accounts for 2008 were
$845,034, as compared to $766,795 for 2007.
Inventory
Inventories
as of December 31, 2008 increased by 113.8% to $ 8,285,521 from $3,875,658 as of
December 31, 2007, primarily due to the acquisition of Tianjin Huaneng and
SZPSP. The inventory mainly consists of finished goods waiting for
transportation or installation and unfinished energy saving
projects.
Other
receivables and prepayments
Other
receivables and prepayments as of December 31, 2008 increased to $7,870,575 from
$1,637,948 as of December 31, 2007, primarily due to our loan agreements to
Fuwaysun and loan agreements to Xiongri. Other receivables and prepayments
mainly consist of advances to suppliers, prepaid expenses and customers’
deposits.
Property,
plant and equipment
Property,
plant and equipment as of December 31, 2008 increased to $15,149,198 from
$8,819,216 as of December 31, 2007 primarily due to our acquisition of Tianjin
Huaneng and SZPSP. The increase is mainly contributable to an increase in
buildings, plant and machinery and office equipment.
Goodwill
We
recorded goodwill of $2,340,512 as of December 31, 2008, compared with
$1,789,324 as of December 31, 2007. The increase was primarily due to our
increased shareholding of Tianjin Huaneng and acquisition of SZPSP.
Intangible
assets
Intangible
assets refer to land use rights of the Company. The amount increased from
$1,597,921 as of December 31, 2007 to $1,709,184 as of December 31, 2008
primarily due to our acquisition of Tianjin Huaneng and SZPSP. All of the
Company’s land purchases in the PRC are considered to be leasehold land and are
stated at cost less accumulated amortization and any recognized impairment loss.
Amortization is provided over the term of the land use right agreement which is
50 years, on a straight-line basis.
Accounts
payable
Account
payable as of December 31, 2008 increased to $5,301,349 as of December 31, 2008
from $$2,111,028 as of December 31, 2007.
Income
tax payables
Income
tax payable of $ 1,818,488 decreased as of December 31, 2008 primarily due
to our reduced income.
Other
payables and accrued liabilities
Other
payables and accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2008 increased to
$11,190,000 from $8,552,452 as of December 31, 2007 primarily due to
consolidation with SZPSP and acquisition minority interests of Tianjin. The
increase mainly comprised of increases in accrued expenses, customer deposits,
other payable, and deferred revenue.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We do not
have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a
current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, result of
operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

The
Company’s consolidated audited financial statements for the fiscal years ended
December 31, 2008 and 2007, together with the report of the independent
certified public accounting firms thereon and the notes thereto, are presented
beginning at page F-1.
REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board
of Directors and stockholders of
CHINA
SOLAR & CLEAN ENERGY SOLUTIONS, INC.
We have
audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of China Solar & Clean
Energy Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the
related consolidated statements of income, cash flows and changes in
stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income for the years ended December 31,
2008 and 2007. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We
conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company
is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its
internal control over financial reporting. Our audits include consideration of
internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our
opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December
31, 2008 and 2007 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for
the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As
discussed in Note 19 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has
restated its 2008 consolidated financial statements.

ORGANIZATION
AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND
|
China
Solar & Clean Energy Solutions, Inc. (“China Solar”), formerly known as Deli
Solar (USA) Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on March 21, 1983 as
Meditech Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Meditech”). In late 2004, the Board of
Directors of Meditech contemplated a strategic reorganization with Deli Solar
Holding Ltd., a corporation organized in the British Virgin Islands (“Deli Solar
(BVI)”). In contemplation of the reorganization, the Board of Directors resolved
to spin off Meditech's drug development business to the shareholders of Meditech
of record on February 17, 2005, through a pro rata distribution in the form of a
stock dividend. The spin-off was completed on August 29, 2005. The acquisition
of Deli Solar (BVI) was accounted for as a recapitalization of Deli Solar
(BVI).
Deli
Solar (BVI) was formed in June 2004. On August 1, 2004, Deli Solar (BVI)
purchased Bazhou Deli Solar Energy Heating Co., Ltd. (“Deli Solar (Bazhou)”), a
corporation duly organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China
(“PRC”) from Messrs. Deli Du, Xiao'er Du, and Xiaosan Du for RMB 6,800,000. As a
result of this transaction, Deli Solar (Bazhou) became a wholly-foreign owned
enterprise ("WFOE") under PRC law on March 30, 2005. This acquisition was
accounted for as a transfer of entities under common control.
Deli
Solar (Bazhou) was incorporated on August 19, 1997 under the laws of the PRC. In
the PRC, Ltd, or Limited, is equivalent to Inc, or Incorporated, in the United
States (“US”).
The
result of the above transactions is that Deli Solar (BVI) is now our direct,
wholly-owned subsidiary and Deli Solar (Bazhou) remains a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Deli Solar (BVI).
On
November 21, 2005 Deli Solar (Bazhou) acquired Ailiyang Solar Energy Technology
Co., Ltd. (“Ailiyang”), an entity formerly controlled by the owners of Deli
Solar (Bazhou). The transaction was accounted for as a transfer of entities
under common control.
Beijing
Deli Solar Technology Development Co., Ltd. (“Deli Solar (Beijing)”) was founded
in 2006 and is principally engaged in solar power heater integrated construction
projects in major cities in the PRC.
During
2007, the Company set up a branch sales office in the cities of Lian Yun Gang
and the City of Bazhou to provide sales support in those cities as
sole-proprietorship of its chief executive officer and president, Mr. Deli Du.
The sole proprietorships are considered variable interest entities because they
(1) lack equity sufficient to finance their activities without additional
subordinated financial support and (2) the Company, and not Mr. Deli Du, absorbs
the losses or receives the gains.
Based
upon a review of the provisions of FIN 46R, the structure of the agreements
and activities of the entities described above, the Company determined that it
is the primary beneficiary of the sole proprietorships at December 31, 2007. If
the facts and circumstances change in the future, the Company could determine
that it is no longer the primary beneficiary, which would require China
Solar to de-consolidate the sole-proprietorships. The Company's investment in
the sole-proprietorships was immaterial as of December 31, 2007.
On July
1, 2007, Deli Solar (Beijing) acquired 51% of Tianjin Hua Neng Energy Equipment
Company (“Tianjin Huaneng”), which manufactures energy saving boilers and
environmental protection equipment for industrial customers. The transaction was
accounted for under the purchase method. See Note 2.
On April
1, 2008, Beijing Deli Solar Technology Development Co., Ltd (“Deli Solar
(Beijing)”) acquired 100% of Shenzhen Pengsangpu Solar Industrial Products
Corporation (“SZPSP”), which is engaged in the re-sale of energy-saving related
heating products such as heat pipes, heat exchangers, pressure water boilers,
solar energy heaters and raditors. The transaction was accounted for under the
purchase method. See Note 2.
On
October 27, 2008, Deli Solar (Beijing), entered into an agreement to acquire
approximately 29.97% of the outstanding equity interest of Tianjin Huaneng, from
the minority shareholders of Tianjin Huaneng.
As a
result of the consummation of the agreement and the additional capital
contribution, the Company owns approximately 91.82% of the equity interest in
Tianjin Huaneng.
China
Solar, Deli Solar (BVI), Deli Solar (Bazhou), Ailiyang, Deli Solar (Beijing),
Tianjin Huaneng, SZPSP are hereinafter referred to as (“the
Company”).

SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
|
Basis of
presentation
These
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US
GAAP”).
Basis of
consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of China
Solar, Deli Solar (BVI), Deli Solar (Bazhou), Ailiyang, Deli Solar (Beijing),
Tianjin Huaneng, Shenzhen Pengsangpu and the VIE.
The
Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board
Interpretation No. 46R, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN
46R”). The sole-proprietorship business in the name of Mr. Deli Du is regarded a
VIE of the Company and is consolidated in the Company’s financial statements.
The Company evaluates its relationship with other entities to identify whether
they are variable interest entities, as defined by Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 46 (revised), "Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities" (FIN 46R), and assesses whether it is the
primary beneficiary of such entities. If the determination is made that the
Company is the primary beneficiary, then that entity is included in the
Company's Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with
FIN 46R.
All
significant intercompany balances and transactions within the Company have been
eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of
estimates
In
preparing these financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets
and revenues and expenses during the years reported. Actual results may differ
from these estimates.
Cash and
cash equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid securities with original maturities of three
months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2008 and
2007, the Company had $2,404,996 and $5,466,637, respectively, in cash
equivalents.
Accounts
receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts
Accounts
receivable consists of amounts due from customers. The Company extends unsecured
credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the
associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due
accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established and determined based
on management’s assessment of known requirements, aging of receivables, payment
history, the customer’s current credit worthiness and the economic
environment.
Inventories
Inventories
include direct materials, labor and factory overhead and are stated at lower of
cost or market value, cost being determined on a first-in, first-out basis. The
Company periodically reviews historical sales activity to determine excess, slow
moving items and potentially obsolete items and also evaluates the impact of any
anticipated changes in future demand. The Company provides inventory allowances
based on excess and obsolete inventories determined principally by customer
demand. As of December 31, 2008, and 2007, the Company recorded $246,408 and $0
in write-offs.

Construction-in-progress
All
facilities purchased for installation, self-made or subcontracted are accounted
for under construction-in-progress. Construction-in-progress is recorded at
acquisition cost, including cost of facilities, installation expenses and the
interest capitalized during the course of construction for the purpose of
financing the project. Upon completion and readiness for use of the project, the
cost of construction-in-progress is to be transferred to fixed
assets.
Goodwill
and intangible assets
We
account for business combinations in accordance with SFAS No. 141,
Business Combinations
, which
requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business
combinations. SFAS 141 requires intangible assets acquired in a business
combination to be recognized and reported separately from goodwill.
Goodwill
represents the cost of the acquired businesses in excess of the fair value of
identifiable tangible and intangible net assets purchased. We generally seek the
assistance of independent valuation experts in determining the fair value of the
identifiable tangible and intangible net assets of the acquired business. We
assign all the assets and liabilities of the acquired business, including
goodwill, to reporting units in accordance with SFAS No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets
.
We test
goodwill for impairment on an annual basis. In this process, we rely on a number
of factors including operating results, business plans and future cash flows.
Recoverability of goodwill is evaluated using a two-step process. The first step
involves a comparison of the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying
value. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value,
the second step of the process involves a comparison of the fair value and
carrying value of the goodwill of that reporting unit. If the carrying value of
the goodwill of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value of that goodwill, an
impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess. Goodwill of a
reporting unit will be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event
occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair
value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount.
During the year ended
December 31, 2008, we incurred a goodwill impairment charge of RMB16.8
million ($2.4 million).
This impairment charge relates to our acquisition for SZPSP as our
management has significantly adjusted downward our cash flow forecast for next
five years because of the business model of the reporting unit.
We
evaluate intangible assets for recoverability whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the
carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected
to be generated by the asset. If these assets are considered to be impaired, the
impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying
value of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
Furthermore,
SFAS No. 142 requires purchased intangible assets other than goodwill to be
amortized over their useful lives unless these lives are determined to be
indefinite. Purchased intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated
amortization. No impairment of intangibles has been identified since the date of
acquisition. All lands in the PRC are 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 specified period of time. Thus, all of the Company’s
land purchases in the PRC are considered to be leasehold land and are stated at
amortized cost. Amortization is provided over the term of the land use right
agreements on a straight-line basis, which is 50 years and they will expire in
2048, 2051 and 2054.
Impairment
of long-lived assets
In
accordance with SFAS No. 144,
“
Accounting for the
Impairment or Di
sposal
of Long-Lived Assets”
, a long-lived assets and certain identifiable
intangible assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of
an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is
evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of assets to estimated
undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such
assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is
measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the
fair value of the assets. There has been no impairment as of December 31, 2008
and 2007.

Revenue
recognition
The
Company’s sales include furnishing solar equipment to end users, installing and
testing the equipment and providing maintenance. Revenue is
recognized after testing and acceptance by the customer if a formal
relationship exists, the price is fixed or determinable, no other significant
obligations of the Company exists and collectability is reasonably
assured.
The
Company provides equipment purchasers with a maintenance warranty ranging from
one year to eighteen months. The Company accrues expected warranty costs at the
time the related sales revenue is recognized. Warranty reserves have been
established by charging cost of sales and recording a warranty provision. The
reserves are estimated by management to be adequate to cover expected warranty
related costs under unexpired warranty periods.
Revenue
from the provision of energy-saving projects are recognized when persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, transfer of title has occurred or services
have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable and
collectability is reasonably assured.
Project
revenue under sales-type leases
In
accordance with SFAS No. 13,
"Accounting for
Leases",
the Company recognizes interest income over the lease term so as
to produce a constant rate of return on the net investment in the lease using
effective interest method.
Under
sales-type leases, the Company also recognizes a profit (or loss) at the
beginning of the lease term.
Sales
revenue should be recorded for the fair value of the leased asset, or, if lower,
the present value of the minimum lease payments, computed using the interest
rate implicit in the lease. Cost of sales should be recorded for the carrying
amount of the leased asset, less the present value of the unguaranteed residual
value.
The
Company recognizes its revenues net of value-added taxes (“VAT”). The Company is
subject to VAT which is levied on the majority of the products at the rate of
17% on the invoiced value of sales. Output VAT is borne by customers in addition
to the invoiced value of sales and input VAT is borne by the Company in addition
to the invoiced value of purchases to the extent not refunded for export
sales.
Cost of
revenue
Cost of
revenue consists primarily of material costs, direct labor, inbound freight
charges, depreciation and manufacturing overheads, which are directly
attributable to the manufactured products and the provision of the energy-saving
projects. Additionally, costs of revenue includes purchasing, and receiving
costs, inspection costs, warehousing costs and costs associated with
distribution networks.
Operating
expenses
Selling
and distribution expenses consist primarily of non-cash sales promotions,
outbound distribution, traveling and transportation expenses, and agency
administration expenses. The nature of outbound distribution, traveling, and
transportation expenses includes outbound shipping and handling costs related to
the sale of our products. It is our Company’s accounting policy to
differentiate outbound shipping costs from inbound shipping costs. Inbound
shipping costs are capitalized in inventory and charged to costs of sales at the
time revenue is recognized. Outbound shipping and handling costs recorded in
selling and distribution expense totaled $515,363 and $177,413, for the years
ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. General and administrative
expenses include advertising expenses and salaries and benefits.
Advertising
expenses
Advertising
costs are expensed as incurred in accordance with the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) Statement of Position 93-7,
“
Reporting for Advertising

Income
taxes
The
Company accounts for income tax using SFAS No. 109
“
Accounting for Income Taxes”
, which requires the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and
reporting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred income taxes are
provided for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary
differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases, and for the expected future tax
benefits from loss carry-forwards and provisions, if any. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected in the
years of recovery or reversal and the effect from a change in tax rates is
recognized in the statement of operations and comprehensive (loss) income in the
period of enactment. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of
deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion
of, or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Net
income per share
The
Company calculates net income per share in accordance with SFAS
No. 128,
“
Earnings per Share.”
Basic
income per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted-average
number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share
is computed similar to basic income per share except that the denominator is
increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been
outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the
additional common shares were dilutive.
Foreign
currency translation
The
reporting currency of the Company is United States dollar (“US$”). Transactions
denominated in currency other than US$ are translated into US$ at the average
rate for the period. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currency
other than US$ are translated into US$ at the rates of exchange ruling at the
balance sheet date. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in other
expenses in the accompanying statements of operations.
The
financial records of the Company’s operating subsidiaries are maintained in
their local currency, the Renminbi (“RMB”), which is the functional currency.
Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet
date, equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates, and income
and expenses items are translated using the average rate for the period. The
translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income
in the statements of changes in stockholders’ equity and comprehensive
income.

Product
Warranty
The
Company provides a three-year standard warranty to all Deli Solar (Bazhou)
manufactured products. Repair and replacement of defective component parts
during the first year following purchase are covered under the standard warranty
program. In the second and third year, repair services are covered under the
warranty program but customers pay for the purchase of the replacement parts.
Warranty services are performed by our independent sales agents and distributors
in return for a 1%-2% discount of the purchase price they pay for our products.
No discount is provided to independent sales agents and distributors unless and
until warranty services are provided to the Company. The Company has not
experienced any material returns and therefore has not provided any discount to
independent sales agents and distributors for warranty services.
Under the
terms of the contracts for energy-saving projects, the Company provides a
product warranty on the equipment sold to its customers for a period of twelve
months upon the completion of installation at the Company’s
expense.
The
Company has not experienced any material returns where it was under obligation
to honor this standard warranty provision. As such, no reserve for product
warranty has been provided in the statements of operations for the years ended
December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
Segment
reporting
SFAS No.

“
Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information”
establishes standards for reporting
information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s
internal organization structure as well as information about geographical areas,
business segments and major customers in financial statements. The Company
operates in four principal reportable segments: Sales of solar heater or boiler
related products, heat pipe related products, Energy-saving projects, and Solar
heater collector and others.
Fair
value of financial instruments
The
Company values its financial instruments as required by SFAS No. 107,
“
Disclosures about Fair Value of

. The estimated fair value amounts have been
determined by the Company, using available market information and appropriate
valuation methodologies. The estimates presented herein are not necessarily
indicative of amounts that the Company could realize in a current market
exchange.
The
Company’s financial instruments primarily include cash and cash equivalents,
accounts receivable, other receivables and prepayments, accounts payable, other
payables and accrued liabilities. As of the balance sheet date, the estimated
fair values of financial instruments were not materially different from their
carrying values as presented due to short maturities of these
instruments.

Registration
payment arrangements
The
Company accounts for registration payment arrangement in accordance with FASB
Staff Position EITF 00-19-2, Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements
("FSP EITF 00-19-2") which provides guidance on the accounting for registration
payment arrangements. FSP EITF 00-19-2 specifies that the contingent obligation
to make future payments or otherwise transfer consideration under a registration
payment arrangement, whether issued as a separate agreement or included as a
provision of a financial instrument or other agreement, should be separately
recognized and measured in accordance with FASB Statement No. 5, Accounting for
Contingencies. A registration payment arrangement is defined in FSP EITF 00-19-2
as an arrangement with both of the following characteristics: (1) the
arrangement specifies that the issuer will endeavor (a) to file a
registration statement for the resale of specified financial instruments and/or
for the resale of equity shares that are issuable upon exercise or conversion of
specified financial instruments and for that registration statement to be
declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within a specified
grace period, and/or (b) to maintain the effectiveness of the registration
statement for a specified period of time (or in perpetuity); and(2) the
arrangement requires the issuer to transfer consideration to the counterparty if
the registration statement for the resale of the financial instrument or
instruments subject to the arrangement is not declared effective or if
effectiveness of the registration statement is not maintained.
Uncertain
tax positions
The
Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation
No. 48,
“
Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes”
(“FIN 48”), on January 1, 2007. 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 derecognition 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
Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal
jurisdiction and foreign jurisdictions, principally the PRC. With few
exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local,
or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to the
reverse merger on March 31, 2005. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has not
commenced any examinations of the Company's U.S. income tax returns for the year
2005, of which reverse merger taking place, through 2008.
The
Company did not have any adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings
as of January 1, 2007 as a result of the implementation of FIN 48. As of
December 31, 2008, the Company did not have any significant liability for
unrecognized tax benefits. For the year ended December 31, 2008, the
Company did not have any interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits
in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.
3. RECENTLY
ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In 2008,
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted rule amendments that
replace the category of “Small Business Issuers” with a broader category of
“Smaller Reporting Companies.” Under these rules, a "Smaller Reporting
Company" is a company with a public floats less than $75,000,000 (measured at
end of Q2). Companies that meet this definition are able to elect "scaled
disclosure standards" on an item-by-item or "a-la-carte" basis. With this
change, the SEC has streamlined and simplified reporting for many companies, and
has not added any significant disclosure requirements.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No.
159,
“
The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities”
, or SFAS 159. SFAS 159 permits
companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other
items at fair value. It is expected to expand the use of fair value measurements
which is consistent with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s long-term
measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments. SFAS 159 is
effective for our first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007, which
is our fiscal year 2008 that begins in January 2008. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact of this statement to its financial position and results of
operations.

In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007),
‘’
Business Combinations
’’
, or SFAS No. 141R. SFAS
No. 141R will change the accounting for business combinations. Under SFAS No.
141R, an acquiring entity will be required to recognize all the assets acquired
and liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value with
limited exceptions. SFAS No. 141R will change the accounting treatment and
disclosure for certain specific items in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R
applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is
on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or
after December 15, 2008. Accordingly, any business combinations we engage in
will be recorded and disclosed following existing GAAP until January 1, 2009. We
expect SFAS No. 141R will have an impact on accounting for business combinations
once adopted but the effect is dependent upon acquisitions at that time. We are
still assessing the impact of this pronouncement.

noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a
subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after
December 15, 2008. We believe that SFAS 160 should not have a material impact on
our financial position or results of operations.
4. ACQUISITION

On
January 9, 2008 and March 25, 2008 Beijing Deli Solar Technology Development
Co., Ltd., the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary (“Deli Solar (Beijing)”),
entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement, a Complementary Agreement and a
Supplementary, with Shenzhen PengSangPu Solar Industrial Products Corporation
(“SZPSP”) and its shareholders to acquire 100% of the outstanding equity
interests of SZPSP from its three current shareholders. The closing will be
effective March 31, 2008.
Under the
agreements, Deli Solar (Beijing) agreed to purchase the 100% equity interest of
SZPSP from its current three shareholders. Part of the consideration of
the transaction is RMB 28.8 million ($4,087,832) payable in cash. This purchase
price is based on an appraisal of SZPSP. The three shareholders of SZPSP agreed
to loan the cash proceeds back to SZPSP interest free to be used for working
capital. Fifty (50%) of the principal amount of the loan is required to be paid
prior to March 31, 2009 and the remaining 50% balance is required to be
paid prior to March 31, 2010.
In
addition to the payment of the cash purchase price under the Complementary
Agreement the parties agreed to an appraisal value of RMB 20 million of SZPSP’s
intangible assets which was paid in 1,419,729 shares of common stock. Provided
that if on the first anniversary of the closing the common stock price is lower
than $2, the Company will pay the difference. Fifty percent (50%) of these
shares shall be transferable and unrestricted within one year after the Closing
and the remaining Fifty percent (50%) transferable within two years. The
shares shall be transferred to SZPSP within 180 days of the closing. In
addition, as part of the purchase price, the shareholders of SZPSP will receive
five years warrants to purchase a total of 141,973 shares of common stock
at an exercise price of $2.5 per share subject to future adjustments such as
stock splits and transactions similar in nature.
SZPSP
warranted in the Complementary Agreement that if (i) its sales revenue is less
than RMB 99 million (approximately $13,670,068) with an after-tax net profit of
less than RMB 9.43 million (approximately $1,302,108) for the year ended
December 31, 2008; or (ii) if in the year ended December 31, 2009, it does not
reach the targeted sales revenue of RMB 143.9 million (approximately
$19,868,336) or the after-tax net profit of RMB 12.13 million (approximately
$1,674,789), the differential part that has not achieved the profit for the year
specified will be paid by reducing the amount payable on the shareholders’
loan. If the shareholders’ loan is not sufficient to pay the difference, the
common shares held by SZPSP will be returned to us to the extent necessary for
the remaining balance. For the year ended December 31, 2008, RMB 7 million
(approximately $1,029,336) has been accrued to reduce the amount payable on the
shareholders’ loan.
The
current shareholders of SZPSP, being the management of SZPSP, will enter into
employment contracts with the Company for a term of three years to remain in
their current managing positions of SZPSP, subject to further amendments of such
employment arrangement.
After the
Closing, Deli Solar (Beijing) has the right to a majority of the board seats of
SZPSP.
The
accounting date of the acquisition was April 1, 2008 and was accounted for under
the purchase method. SZPSP results of operations for the nine months ended
December 31, 2008 have been included in consolidated financial statements. The
acquisition of SZPSP will enable the Company to immediately begin leveraging its
technology and engineering capabilities and expertise, and will significantly
expand China Solar’s customer base and present a commercial and industrial
market opportunity for solar water heaters in southern China.
The
estimated aggregate purchase price was $7,019,483. Below is a summary of the

The
$3,055,769 of goodwill was expected to be assigned to the solar heater/boiler
related products segment and a new segment of energy-saving projects. The
Company does not expect goodwill to be tax deductible in the PRC. Of the
$2,350,000 of acquired intangible assets, $310,000 was assigned to in-process
research and development which was written off during the nine months ended
December 31, 2008, $940,000 was assigned to existing intellectual property, and
$1,100,000 was assigned to customer relationships. The acquired identifiable
intangibles assets have a weighted-average amortization period totaling
approximately 10 years and residual value totaling approximately
$0.
The fair
value of the IPRD was derived using a discounted cash flow method. Management
analyzed expected future revenues from product sales and thereafter based on the
research and development being underway at the date of acquisition. Technology
feasibility was determined based on management review of the product life spans
and also the rate of change in the industry. Based on the analysis management
made assumptions as to the portion of product revenue going forward which would
be derived from products based on current research and development. The
significant assumptions with respect to the percentage of revenues going forward
from products based on IPRD are as outlined in the following

Upon
further review, certain R&D underway was later determined to not warrant
completion and that future products based on the R&D were discontinued given
the demand in the market.
Our
internal technology specialists did a scientific and technological evaluation of
the research expenditures of Shenzen Pengsangpu Solar Industrial Products
Corporation. Our evaluation was based on a number of factors,
including,
1) Commercial
viability of products being researched and developed
2) Anticipated
level of patent protection
3) Competitive
environment for products being researched and developed
At the
date of acquisition, the technology feasibility has not been established and
there is no alternative future use. Through this evaluation we determined that
$310,000 of expenditures had no future value and accordingly should be written
off immediately.
The
property, plant and equipment acquired consists of plant machinery and
equipment, motor vehicles and leasehold improvements with estimated depreciable
lives of 5 years and residual value is 10% of the cost of assets.
The
following unaudited pro forma financial information gives effect to the
acquisition of Shenzhen PengSangPu Solar Industrial Products Corporation as if
the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2008. These pro forma results do not
purport to be indicative of the results of operations which actually would have
resulted had the acquisitions occurred on such date or to project the Company’s
results of operations for any future period.

Following
please find the detail information for other receivables:
Shenzhen
Fuwaysun Technology Co., Ltd.
On
January 21, 2008, we entered into a letter of intent (“LOI”) with Mr. Caowei
Liang, Ms. Xuemei Mo and Mr. Huafeng Mo (the “Fuwaysun Shareholders”), the three
shareholders holding the entire equity interests of Shengzhen Fuwaysun
Technology Co., Ltd. (“Fuwaysun”), a PRC company primarily engaged in the
development and production of solar pest killing lamps and transportable solar
generators. Pursuant to the LOI, we will acquire 60% of Fuwaysun’s entire equity
interests (the “Acquisition”) from the Fuwaysun Shareholders at a purchase
price equal to 60% of Fuwaysun’s audited net assets as of January 30, 2008 (the
“Purchase Price”). We will pay the purchase price with cash and our shares as to
be agreed by the parties.
In April,
2008, we entered into two loan agreements with Fuwaysun (the “Loan Agreements”),
pursuant to which we made two loans to Fuwaysun as working capital for six
months, one for $3,000,000 and the other for RMB3,000,000 ($424,352) (the
“Loans”), respectively. The Loan Agreements are substantially identical, except
for the amounts of the loans. Pursuant to the Loan Agreements, if we complete
the Acquisition within six months, we will cancel the Loans to offset the
Purchase Price; if we cannot complete the Acquisition within six months,
Fuwaysun must repay the Loans with 30 days after the expiration of the six
months plus interest on the Loans at a rate of 12% per annum. However, if
Fuwaysun refuses to our Acquisition, Fuwaysun shall repay the Loans plus accrued
interest at a rate of 20% per annum within 30 days thereafter and pay us
liquidated damages equal to 5% of the Purchase Price. If Fuwaysun fails to repay
either Loan pursuant to the applicable Loan Agreement, it shall pay us
additional interest on such Loan at a rate of 0.5% per day. We has
increased loan to Fuwaysun to RMB 6.45 million at December 31, 2008
(approximately $943,728).
On April
9, 2009, we entered into a supplement agreement with the Fuwaysun Shareholders
and Fuwaysun (the “Supplement Agreement”) and extended both the date for the
parties to complete the Acquisition and the maturity date of the Loans to June
30, 2009 and otherwise retained the terms of the LOI and the Loan
Agreements.
Shenzhen
Xiongri Solar Co., Ltd.
In 2006,
we entered into a series of agreements with the three shareholders of Shenzhen
Xiongri Solar Co., Ltd. (“Xiongri”) to purchase 60% of the entire equity
interests of Xiongri for RMB2,000,000 ($282,901). The three shareholders agreed
to loan RMB2, 000,000 to Xiongri as working capital. We have not complete the
transfer of the 60% equity interests. On April 9, 2009, the parties entered into
a supplement agreement and agreed to complete the transfer of the 60% equity
interests by June 30, 2009

Class
A Preferred stock
The
Company has designated 3,500,000 of its Preferred Shares as Class A Convertible
Preferred Shares. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation,
dissolution, or winding up of the corporation, Class A Convertible Preferred
Shareholders shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Corporation,
an amount equal to $1.55 per share. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall
be initially convertible into one (1) share of Common Stock subject to
adjustment for stock dividend and stock splits, sale or issuance of common stock
at a price which is less than $1.55, at the option of the investors, at any time
after the original issue date.
The Class
A Convertible Preferred Shares contain a beneficial conversion feature in favor
of the holder. The beneficial conversion feature was measured at its intrinsic
value at the date of issuance of the shares and is recognized immediately as a
return to the preferred shareholders through a charge to retained earnings,
since the conversion feature is immediately exercisable by the holders. Although
there is no impact on net income, the charge to retained earnings affects the
computation of both basic and diluted EPS for US GAAP in the same way that
dividends on the preferred shares do. The charge during the year of 2008 and
2007 was $0 and $975,807.
Sale
of Units
On June
13, 2007, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Barron
Partners L.P., and two accredited investors in a private placement (“Private
Placement) providing for the sale of: (i) 1,774,194 shares of our Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock; (ii) stock purchase warrants to purchase an
aggregate of 1,774,194 shares of common stock at a price of $1.90 per share; and
(iii) stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,774,194 shares of
common stock at a price of $2.40 per share. In connection with the Private
Placement, the Company deposited 900,000 shares of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock into escrow as security in the event (i) the earnings target for
2007 is not met and (ii) the earnings target for 2008 is not met. The 900,000
shares held in escrow were not included in the diluted earnings per share
calculation as the earnings target for 2007 was met and the fulfillment of
earnings target for 2008 has not been determined. Net proceeds of $2,581,000
were used to finance business acquisitions.
During
the year of 2008, 1,400,628 shares of preferred stock were converted to the same
number of shares of common stock.
Registration
Rights
In
connection with the private placement on June 13, 2007, the Company deposited
900,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into escrow as security.
If the Company’s consolidated pre-tax income for the year ended December 31,
2007 was less than $3,000,000 (or pretax income per share of $0.22 on a fully
diluted basis), the Company was required to deliver to the investors (pro rata
according to the relative size of their investment) a number of the escrow
shares to be determined based on the shortfall by which the Company failed to
achieve the 2007 earnings target. If the Company’s consolidated pre-tax
income for the year ending December 31, 2008 is less than $5,500,000 (or pretax
income per share of $0.40 on a fully diluted basis) the investors were entitled
to receive (pro rata according to the relative size of their investment) a
number of the remaining escrow shares to be determined based on the shortfall by
which the Company failed to achieve 2008 earnings target. The agreement with the
investors further provided that the investors will not be entitled to any of the
remaining escrow shares and all remaining escrow shares shall be returned to the
Company if the Company did not receive at least $4,000,000 from the investors,
either through the exercise of warrants, or additional equity financing, within
90 days after the effectiveness of the first registration statement filed
pursuant to a certain registration rights agreement entered into with the
investors concurrently. The registration statement in question was declared
effective on February 7, 2008 The earnings target for the year ended December
31, 007 was met, thus 900,000 escrow shares remained in escrow at the beginning
of the year ending December 31, 2008. However, the 900,000 shares held in escrow
were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the
twelve months ended December 31, 2008 as the escrow shares were to be returned
to the Company since the investors did not provide at least $4,000,000 in
additional equity financing within 90 days after the effectiveness of the first
registration statement and the diluted earnings per share were the same as basic
earnings per share due to the net loss result in 2008.

Warrants
for services
In
connection with the Private Placement on June 13, 2007, the Board of Directors
granted to consultants and agents warrants to purchase an aggregate of 181,452
shares of the Company’s common stock, of which 75,000 warrants are exercisable
at US$2.90 per share and 106,452 warrants are exercisable at US$2.71 per share,
or on a cashless exercise basis. The warrants vested immediately and expire on
June 13, 2012. The market price of the stock was US$2.10 per share on the grant
date. The Company valued the 75,000 warrants at US$0.74 per share and the
106,452 warrants at US$0.78 per share, or $138,338 in aggregate in accordance
with SFAS 123R, which were recorded as offering cost in additional paid-in
capital in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2007.
The fair
value of the warrants was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

On March
30, 2005, in conjunction with a private placement sale of common stock the
Company issued five year warrants to purchase 1,714,290 shares of common stock
at a price of $3.85 per share to investors. Concurrently, the Company issued
five year warrants to purchase 171,429 common shares at $3.85 per share to
financial advisers and others. No share-based compensation expense was recorded,
as management determined this transaction to be a cost of issuance.
The
Company issued a warrant (the "Warrant") to its placement agent in connection
with its private placement in February 2008. The Warrant authorizes the agent to
purchase 469,150 shares of its common stock at a fixed price ($2.88 per share),
for a five-year period. The Warrant contains a cashless exercise provision which
permits the placement agent, at its option, to exercise the Warrant without
tendering the exercise price, in exchange for a reduced number of shares. The
number of shares will be calculated according to a formula should the placement
agent decide to opt to exercise the Warrant under the cashless provision. If the
Company is sold during the exercise period (referred to as a "fundamental
transaction" in the Warrant), the placement agent has the right to exercise its
Warrant and thus participate in the proceeds from the sale to the same extent as
any other shareholder. These warrants are immediately exerciseable. The fair
value of the warrants was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model. In calculating the fair value of the warrants, management
used the closing price of the common stock on February 29, 2008, of $2.71 per
share, plus the following assumptions:
Risk
fee interest rate (%)
|
|

The
Company valued the warrants at US$1.155 per share, or $541,695 in aggregate, in
accordance with SFAS 123R, which were recorded as offering costs which offset
additional paid-in capital in the accompanying consolidated financial statements
for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008.
The
Company issued a warrant (the "Warrant") to minority shareholder of Tianjin in
connection with acquisition on October 27, 2008. The Warrant authorizes the
minority shareholder to purchase 1,000,000 shares of its common stock at a fixed
price ($1.10 per share), for a five-year period. These warrants are immediately
exercisable. The fair value of the warrants was estimated at the date of grant
using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. In calculating the fair value of
the warrants, management used the closing price of the common stock on
October 27, 2008, of $1.10 per share, plus the following
assumptions:
Risk

The
Company valued the warrants at US$0.77 per share, or $766,038 in aggregate, in
accordance with SFAS 123R, which were recorded as investment cost which offset
additional paid-in capital in the accompanying consolidated financial statements
for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008.

Registration
Rights Agreement
In
connection with the private placement, the Company entered into a registration
rights agreement with the investors on February 25, 2008 which requires us to
file with the SEC a “resale” registration statement providing for the resale of
(i) all of the 4,691,499 shares of common stock sold to the investors, (ii) the
2,000,000 “make good shares” and (iii) the 469,150 shares underlying the
placement agent warrants (collectively, the “registrable securities”) for an
offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended.
The
Company agreed, among other things, to prepare and file an initial registration
statement within 45 days of the closing date (i.e. April 14, 2008) to register
for resale part of the registrable securities (other than the 2,000,000 make
good shares and the 469,150 shares underlying the placement agent warrants) and
to cause that registration statement to be declared effective by July 28,
2008.
The
Company is required to file additional registration statements covering all of
the remaining registrable securities (or such lesser number as the SEC deems
appropriate) if any registrable securities could not be registered in the
initial registration statement, by the 15th day following the date on which we
are able to effect the registration of such securities in accordance with any
SEC restrictions.
The
Company’s failure to meet this schedule and other timetables provided in the
registration rights agreement could result in the imposition of liquidated
damages. No liquidated damages will accrue in respect of any registrable
securities which the SEC has requested (due to the application of Rule 415)
the Company to remove from the registration statement and the required
effectiveness date for such registrable securities will be tolled until such
time as the Company is able to effect the registration of those securities in
accordance with any SEC restrictions.
On
February 29, 2008, the Company completed a private placement of 4,691,499 shares
of the common stock at a price per share of $2.40 for an aggregate purchase
price of approximately $11,300,000. The Company received $9,995,156 as net
proceeds from this financing.
On July
28, 2008, the Company incurred liquidated damages equal to $112,596 which
represents 1% of $11,259,587 (the aggregate of investment amount by the
investors) due to the fact that the Company failed to have the registration
statement declared effective on or prior to that date. The liquidated damages
continue to accrue per diem with respect to all investors at the monthly rate of
1% and pro rated for partial months. The registration statement did not go
effective until December 17, 2008. Accordingly, as of December 17, 2008, the
Company had incurred $523,026 in liquidated damages for failing to have the
registration statement declared effective by July 28, 2008.

The
Company's subsidiary operating in the PRC, Ailiyang and Tianjin Huaneng are
domestically owned and subject to the Corporate Income Tax governed by the
Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China, at a statutory rate of 33%,
which is comprised of a 30% national income tax and 3% local income

effective from the year ended 2005, Deli Solar (Bazhou) is entitled to a
two-year exemption from enterprise income tax and a reduced enterprise income
tax rate of 15% for the following three years.
In
September 2006, the Deli Solar (Beijing) was founded as a foreign investment
enterprise. Hence, effective from the year ended 2006, Deli Solar (Beijing) is

For the
year ended December 31, 2007, warrants to purchase 2,007,171 shares of common
stock have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as the
average market price of the common stock was less than the exercise price
of the warrants, thereby making the warrants antidilutive under the treasury
method. Convertible preferred stocks were also excluded from the denominator and
the associated beneficial conversion was excluded from the numerator as the

Financial
instruments that are potentially subject to credit risk consist principally of
cash and trade receivables. All cash held in financial institutions are not
insured and therefore subject to credit risk. The Company believes the
concentration of credit risk in its trade receivables is substantially mitigated
by its ongoing credit evaluation process and relatively short collection terms.
The Company does not generally require collateral from customers. The
Company evaluates the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon
factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and
other information.
As the
Company has no significant interest-bearing assets, the Company’s income and
operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest
rates.
The
Company’s interest-rate risk arises from short-term borrowings. Borrowings
issued at floating rates expose the Company to cash flow and fair value
interest-rate risk. Company policy is to maintain approximately all of its
borrowings in floating rate instruments. At the year end, all of borrowings were
at floating rates.

Postponement
of Acquisition of Shenzhen Fuwaysun Technology Co.,
Ltd.
|
On
January 21, 2008, we entered into a letter of intent (“LOI”) with Mr. Caowei
Liang, Ms. Xuemei Mo and Mr. Huafeng Mo (the “Fuwaysun Shareholders”), the three
shareholders holding the entire equity interests of Shengzhen Fuwaysun
Technology Co., Ltd. (“Fuwaysun”), a PRC company primarily engaged in the
development and production of solar pest killing lamps and transportable solar
generators. Pursuant to the LOI, we will acquire 60% of Fuwaysun’s entire equity
interests (the “Acquisition”) from the Fuwaysun Shareholders at a purchase price
equal to 60% of Fuwaysun’s audited net assets as of January 30, 2008 (the
“Purchase Price”). We will pay the purchase price with cash and our shares as to
be agreed by the parties.
In April,
2008, we entered into two loan agreements with Fuwaysun (the “Loan Agreements”),
pursuant to which we made two loans to Fuwaysun as working capital for six
months, one for $3,000,000 and the other for RMB3,000,000 ($424,352) (the
“Loans”), respectively. The Loan Agreements are substantially identical, except
for the amounts of the loans. Pursuant to the Loan Agreements, if we complete
the Acquisition within six months, we will cancel the Loans to offset the
Purchase Price; if we cannot complete the Acquisition within six months,
Fuwaysun must repay the Loans with 30 days after the expiration of the six
months plus interest on the Loans at a rate of 12% per annum. However, if
Fuwaysun refuses to our Acquisition, Fuwaysun shall repay the Loans plus
accrued interest at a rate of 20% per annum within 30 days thereafter and pay us
liquidated damages equal to 5% of the Purchase Price. If Fuwaysun fails to repay
either Loan pursuant to the applicable Loan Agreement, it shall pay us
additional interest on such Loan at a rate of 0.5% per day.
On April
9, 2009, we entered into a supplement agreement with the Fuwaysun Shareholders
and Fuwaysun (the “Supplement Agreement”) and extended both the date for the
parties to complete the Acquisition and the maturity date of the Loans to June
30, 2009 and otherwise retained the terms of the LOI and the Loan
Agreements.
(b)

Postponement
of Acquisition of Shenzhen Xiongri Solar Co.,
Ltd.
|
In 2006,
we entered into a series of agreements with the three shareholders of Shenzhen
Xiongri Solar Co., Ltd. (“Xiongri”) to purchase 60% of the entire equity
interests of Xiongri for RMB2,000,000 ($282,901). The three shareholders agreed
to loan RMB2, 000,000 to Xiongri as working capital. We have not complete the
transfer of the 60% equity interests.. On April 9, 2009, the parties entered
into a supplement agreement and agreed to complete the transfer of the 60%
equity interests by June 30, 2009.

RESTATEMENT
ON CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
|
In
April 2008, we filed a registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities
and Exchange Commission relating to the sale by certain selling stockholders
identified in the related prospectus of up to 5,160,649 shares of our common
stock including 469,150 shares they may acquire on exercise of warrants. When
reviewing our financial statements for inclusion in the prospectus, we became
aware of an error in the calculation of diluted net income per share for the
year ended December 31, 2007. We misapplied the treasury stock and the “if
converted” methods under SFAS No. 128 and because of the error we identified, we
have restated our historical financial statements for 2007 to record an increase
of 10¢ in diluted net income per share.
This
10¢ per share adjustment was non-cash. The error had no impact on our
reported assets, liabilities, equity, revenue, expenses or earnings. There was
no cumulative effect on retained earnings or other components of equity in the
balance sheet at December 31, 2007. It had no impact on basic earnings per
share. Nor did it have any impact on cash or cash equivalents. It had no impact
on prior year financial statements and, likewise, will have no impact on future
financial statements.

On
March 30, 2009, we concluded, based, in part, on the recommendation of its
current independent auditors, that the financial statements included in the Form
10-K for the period ended December 31, 2008 and the financial statements
included in Form 10Q for the periods ended March 31, 2009, June 30, 2009 and
September 30, 2009 should be restated
The
following are the reasons the restatement is required.
The
acquisition of the additional 29.97% interest in Tianjin Hua Neng Energy
Equipment Company on October 27, 2009 was not properly recorded. As disclosed in
Note 4 to the financial statements of 2008, the Registrant paid $515,026 at the
completion of the agreement with the remainder, aggregating approximately
$1,047,611 plus interest to be paid over the next three years. We only recorded
the amount actually paid and did not record the corresponding debt. In addition
there 1,000,000 warrants to purchase the company’s common stock were issued as
part of the purchase price and were not valued and included as additional
purchase price.
The using
right of building of Deli Solar (Beijing) will expire in August, 2011. But the
Company never depreciated for it. So the Company decided to correct
it.
After
further analysis of the Company’s revenue recognition policy, it has decided to
change the revenue recognition of its consolidated subsidiary Tianjin Hua Neng.
The Company will make the appropriate entries to properly record the revenue and
associated costs of revenue.
The
following is a summary of the effects of the restatement on the company’s
consolidated financial statements.
