EXPLANATORY
NOTE REGARDING RESTATEMENT
This
Amendment No. 1 ("Form 10-Q/A") to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
three month period ended March 31, 2009 ("Form 10-Q"), which was filed with the
SEC on May 15, 2009, amends the Form 10-Q to reflect restated amounts and
revised disclosures of the Company's consolidated financial statements for the
three month period ended March 31 2009 and for the year ended December 31,
2008.
The
company has restated its property, plant and equipment, intangible assets,
registration rights penalties payable and certain expenses for the three months
ended March 31, 2009 and expanded the related footnote disclosures. These
adjustments resulted in an increase in the Group’s net loss for the three months
ended March 31, 2009 by $12,152,643, from the net loss of $338,900 to the net
loss of $12,491,543, with a corresponding increase in accumulated deficit and
equity at March 31, 2009. A detailed discussion of the restatement of the
consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2009
originally filed May 20, 2009 is included in note 18

NOTES
TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR
THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2009 AND 2008
Restatement
of previously issued March 31, 2009 Consolidated Financial
Statements
The Group
has restated its property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, registration
rights penalties payable and certain expenses for the three months ended March
31, 2009 and expanded the related footnote disclosures. These adjustments
resulted in an increase in the Group’s net loss for the three months ended March
31, 2009 by $12,152,643, from the net loss of $338,900 to the net loss of
$12,491,543, with a corresponding increase in accumulated deficit and equity at
March 31, 2009. A detailed discussion of the restatement of the consolidated
financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2009 originally filed
May 20, 2009 is included in note 18.
The
financial statements are prepared in accordance with the accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). This
basis differs from that used in the statutory accounts of our subsidiaries in
China, which were prepared in accordance with the accounting principles and
relevant financial regulations applicable to enterprises in the
PRC. All necessary adjustments have been made to present the
financial statements in accordance with US GAAP.
The
interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein, presented
in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and
stated in US dollars, have been prepared by the Group, without audit, pursuant
to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Group
believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading. These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal
recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for
fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested that
these interim condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction
with the financial statements of the Group for the year ended December 31, 2008
and notes thereto included in the Form 10KA of China New Energy Group Company
filed on April 15, 2010. The Group follows the same accounting policies in the
preparation of interim reports.
Results
of operations for the interim periods are not indicative of annual
results.

Organization
and Nature of Business
|
China New
Energy Group Company (“CNER” and the “Group”) was incorporated on March 28, 2008
in the state of Delaware USA, under the name of Travel Hunt Holdings, Inc.. On
May 27, 2008, Travel Hunt changed its name to China New Energy Group Company in
connection with a share exchange transaction as described below.
Reverse
Acquisition
On March
28, 2008, the Company executed a share exchange agreement with Willsky
Development Ltd. (“Willsky”) whereby the Company issued to the stockholders of
Willsky 94,908,650 shares of the Company’s Common Stock in exchange for all of
the issued and outstanding capital stock of Willsky (the “Share Exchange”).
Prior to the Share Exchange, 7,091,391 shares of Common Stock were issued and
outstanding. Willsky thereby became our wholly-owned subsidiary and the former
shareholders of Willsky became our controlling stockholders.
Concurrently
with the Share Exchange, the two existing shareholders of Travel Hunt
surrendered to the Company a total of 2,000,000 shares of the Common Stock of
the Company for cancellation in exchange for $660,000 payable through the
delivery of a six month Convertible Promissory Note. After surrender, the
existing shareholders retained 5,091,391 shares of our Common
Stock.
Simultaneous
with the consummation of the Share Exchange, the shareholder of Willsky, Eternal
International Holding Group Ltd, a Hong Kong corporation, distributed 85,417,785
shares of the Company’s Common Stock to its shareholders as a dividend.
Accordingly, following this distribution and the surrender of 2,000,000 shares
held by the existing shareholders, Eternal International beneficially owned
approximately 9.49% of the Company’s outstanding capital stock of 100,000,041
common shares.

This
transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization
of the Company whereby Willsky is deemed to be the accounting acquirer (legal
acquiree) and the Company the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer). The
historical financial statements for periods prior to March 28, 2008, are those
of Willsky except that the equity section and earnings per share have been
retroactively restated to reflect the reverse acquisition.
Principal
activity
The
principal activity of the Group is the operation of natural gas distribution
network through its Chinese subsidiary companies. The Group’s operating
subsidiaries and branches (which together with the Company are collectively
referred to as the “Group”) and their principal activities as of March 31, 2009
are as follows:
Willsky Development Ltd.
(“Willsky”)
Willsky
Development Ltd. (“Willsky”) was incorporated on May 31, 2005 under the laws of
the British Virgin Islands.
Tianjin Sing Ocean Public
Utility Development Co., Ltd. (“Singocean”)
In 2005,
Willsky acquired a 99% shareholding in Singocean, which was formed in the PRC as
an equity joint venture to be operated for a period of 50 years until January
18, 2054, with registered capital of $4,500,000 (RMB31,897,000). Singocean set
up a branch division in Acheng, Tianjin, called Tianjin Sing Ocean Public
Utility Development Co., Ltd. – Acheng Division (“Singocean – Acheng Division”)
which is to be operated for a period of five years until December 28,
2010.

Qinhuangdao Chensheng Gas
Company Limited (“Chensheng”)
On
September 16, 2008, our Singocean subsidiary entered into an Equity Swap
Agreement with Mr. Xiu Hai Tian, whereby we acquired from Mr. Xiu
a 49% ownership interest in Chensheng, in exchange for our 99%
ownership in Hunchun Sing Ocean. The parties to the Equity Swap
Agreement determined that the value of the 49% interest in Chensheng and the 99%
interest in Hunchun Sing Ocean were approximately equal and therefore there was
no cash or other consideration exchanged.
On
December 10, 2008, we entered into an Agreement for Equity Transfer with the
holders of the remaining 51% ownership interest in Chensheng. The Agreement was
consummated on December 30, 2008 and the Company purchased the remaining 51% of
Chensheng from 17 individuals, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately
$1,840,000 (RMB 12,560,000). As a result, the Company owns 51% of Chensheng and
our 99%-owned subsidiary Singocean owns 49% of Chensheng and thus the Group
ultimately owns 99.5% of Chensheng.
China New Energy (Tianjin)

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a)
Basis of Presentation
The
financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). This
basis differs from that used in the statutory accounts of our subsidiaries in
China, which were prepared in accordance with the accounting principles and
relevant financial regulations applicable to enterprises in the
PRC. All necessary adjustments have been made to present the
financial statements in accordance with US GAAP.
(b)
Use of Estimates
In
preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP,
management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and
expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Significant
Estimates
These
consolidated financial statements include some amounts that are based on
management's best estimates and judgments. The most significant estimates relate
to revenue recognition of gas connection contracts, depreciation of property,
plant and equipment, the valuation allowance for deferred taxes, impairment
testing of intangible assets, the fair value of derivative instrument
liabilities and various contingent liabilities. It is reasonably possible that
the above-mentioned estimates and others may be adjusted as more current
information becomes available, and any adjustment could be significant in future
reporting periods.
(c)
Principles of Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Group and all of
its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have
been eliminated in consolidation.
(d)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Group
considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months
or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2009 and
December 31, 2008, the Group did not have any cash equivalents.
Deposits
in banks in the PRC are not insured by any government entity or agency, and are
consequently exposed to risk of loss. Management believes the probability of a
bank failure, causing loss to the Group, is remote.
(e)
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property,
plant and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and
repairs, which do not improve or extend the expected useful life of the assets,
are expensed to operations but major repairs are capitalized. Depreciation is
provided principally by use of the straight-line method over the useful lives of
the related assets, as follows:
|
|
3
years
|
Furniture
& fixtures
|
|
5
years

The gain

the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant assets, and, if
any, is recognized in the statement of operations.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies-continued
(f)
Intangible Assets
Intangible
assets are generally amortized on a straight line basis over their respective
estimated useful lives. The Group has no intangible assets with indefinite
useful lives. Intangible assets represent land use rights in the PRC. According
to Chinese regulations, land belongs to the nation. Land use rights refer to the
purchase of the legal right to use land from the government. The term of the
land use rights is 50 years. The land use rights are amortized using the
straight-line method over their estimated useful life of 50 years.
(g)
Inventories
Inventories,
including construction materials, integrated circuit cards, gas meters,
polyethylene valves and natural gas are stated at the lower of cost and net
realizable value. Cost is calculated using the weighted average method. Net
realizable value is based on estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of
business less estimated costs to completion and the estimated costs necessary to
make the sale.
(h)
Goodwill
Goodwill
represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net
tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination,
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142,
“Goodwill” and Other Intangible Assets”, goodwill is no longer subject to
amortization. Rather, goodwill is subject to at least an annual assessment for
impairment, applying a fair-value based test. Fair value is generally determined
using a discounted cash flow analysis.
(i)
Impairment of Assets
In
accordance with SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets", the Group evaluates its long-lived assets to determine
whether later events and circumstances warrant revised estimates of useful lives
or a reduction in carrying value due to impairment. If indicators of impairment
exist and if the value of the assets is impaired, an impairment loss would be
recognized. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, no impairment loss has
been recognized.
(j)
Income Taxes
The Group
accounts for income taxes under SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income
Taxes”. Under SFAS No. 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between
the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. Under SFAS No. 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that
includes the enactment date. Also, the Group did not have any
liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits according to the provisions of
FIN 48.
(k)
Revenue Recognition
Among the
accounting policies adopted by the Group, the most critical one is the policy
regarding revenue recognition of the Group’s major sources of income, namely,
gas connection services and sales of gases. In accordance with the SEC's Staff
Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104, under this policy, all of the following
criteria must be met in order for us to recognize revenue:
|
1.
|
Persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists;
|
|
2.
|
Delivery
has occurred or services have been
rendered;
|
|
3.
|
The
seller's price to the buyer is fixed or determinable;
and
|
|
4.
|
Collectibility
is reasonably assured.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies-continued
Gas
connection revenue
Gas
connection revenue is recognized when the outcome of a contract can be estimated
reliably and the stage of completion at the balance sheet date can be measured
reliably.
Revenue
from gas connection contracts is recognized on the percentage of completion
method, measured by reference to the value of work carried out during the year.
When the outcome of a gas connection contract cannot be estimated reliably,
revenue is recognized only to the extent of contract costs incurred that it is
probable will be recoverable.
When the
outcome of a gas connection contract can be estimated reliably and the stage of
contract completion at the balance sheet date can be measured reliably, contract
costs are charged to the income statement by reference to the stage of
completion of the contract activity at the balance sheet date on the same basis
as revenue from the gas connection contract is recognized.
When the
outcome of a gas connection contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract
costs are recognized as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. When
it is probable that total contract costs will exceed contract revenue, the
expected loss is recognized as an expense immediately.
Where
contract costs incurred to date plus recognized profits less recognized losses
exceed progress billings, the surplus is shown as an amount due from customers
for contract work. For contracts where progress billings exceed contract costs
incurred to date plus recognized profits less recognized losses, the surplus is
shown as an amount due to customers for contract work. Amounts received before
the related work is performed are included in the consolidated balance sheet, as
a liability, as advances received. Amounts billed for work performed but not yet
paid by the customer are included in the consolidated balance sheet under trade
and other receivables.
During
the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, all the contracts for connection
services were started and completed in the same period.
Revenue
from sale of gas
Sales
revenue from sale of gas represents the invoiced value of goods sold, net of
value-added tax (“VAT”). Revenue from sale of gas is recognized when the goods
are delivered and title has passed.
All of
the Group’s products that are sold in the PRC are subject to Chinese value-added
tax of 3% of the gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the
Group on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of producing
their finished product. The Group recorded VAT payable and VAT receivable net of
payments in the financial statements.

Policies-continued
(l)
Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions
The
Group’s functional currency is the Renminbi (“RMB”) and its reporting currency
is U.S. dollars. The Group’s consolidated balance sheet accounts are translated
into U.S. dollars at the year-end exchange rates and all revenue and expenses
are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates prevailing during
the periods in which these items arise. Translation gains and losses are
deferred and accumulated as a component of other comprehensive income in
stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate
fluctuations from transactions denominated in a currency other than the
functional currency are included in the statement of operations as incurred. The
translation and transaction gains and losses were immaterial for the periods
ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.
The PRC
government imposes significant exchange restrictions on fund transfers out of
the PRC that are not related to business operations. These restrictions have not
had a material impact on the Group because it has not engaged in any significant
transactions that are subject to the restrictions.
(m)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Group
records and discloses certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities
at their fair value. The fair value of an asset is the price at which the asset
could be sold in an orderly transaction between unrelated, knowledgeable and
willing parties able to engage in the transaction. A liability’s fair value is
defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new
obligor in a transaction between such parties, not the amount that would be paid
to settle the liability with the creditor.
Assets
and liabilities recorded at fair value are measured using a three-tier fair
value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.
These tiers include:
Ÿ
|
Level
1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active
markets;
|
Ÿ
|
Level
2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are
either directly or indirectly observable;
and
|
Ÿ
|
Level
3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data
exists, therefore requiring the Group to develop our own
assumptions.
|
Our
derivative instrument liabilities are recorded at fair value. Our financial
instruments that are recorded at cost include cash and cash equivalents,
restricted cash, accounts receivable, receivables related to subsidiaries sold,
deposits for acquisitions, accounts payable, accrued expenses, dividends
payable, other current liabilities, and our convertible preferred stock. We
believe the carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their
fair values due to their short-term nature.
(n)
Derivative Financial Instruments
We do not
use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow,
exchange-rate or market-risks that may affect the fair values of our financial
instruments. However, certain financial instruments, such as warrants, which are
indexed to our Common Stock, are classified as liabilities when either (a) the
holder possesses rights to net-cash settlement or physical or net-share
settlement is not within our control or (b) the instrument is not solely indexed
to our Common Stock. Derivative financial instruments are initially recorded,
and continuously carried, at fair value.
Determining
the fair value of these complex derivative financial instruments involves
judgment and the use of certain relevant assumptions including, but not limited
to, interest rates and stock price volatility. The use of different
assumptions could have a material effect on the estimated fair value
amounts.

(o)
Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share
The Group
reports basic earnings per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per
Share”. Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number
of shares outstanding during the periods presented. The weighted average number
of shares of the Group represents the common stock outstanding during the
reporting periods.
Diluted
earnings per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive options were
converted or exercised as of the beginning of the period or when issued, if
later. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this
method, options are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period or
the time of issuance, if later, and as if the funds obtained thereby were used
to re-purchase common stock at the average market price during the
period.
(p)
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income
Accumulated
other comprehensive income represents the change in equity of the Group during
the periods presented from foreign currency translation
adjustments.
(q)
Profit Appropriation
In
accordance with PRC regulations, the Group is required to make appropriations to
the statutory surplus reserve, based on after-tax net income determined in
accordance with PRC GAAP. Appropriation to the statutory surplus reserve should
be at 10% of the after-tax net income determined in accordance with the PRC GAAP
until the reserve is equal to 50% of the entity’s registered capital. Statutory
surplus reserve is non-distributable other than in
liquidation.
(r)
Accounts Receivable
Gas
connection fees are recognized on the percentage of completion method, measured
by reference to the value of work carried out during the year. The portion that
is not received in cash is recorded as accounts
receivable.
Trade
accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from
balances outstanding at the period end. Outstanding account balances are
reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off
against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the
potential for recovery is considered remote. Over the last two years, we
have not experienced any bad debts from customers and, accordingly, did not have
a provision for uncollectible accounts at March 31, 2009 and December 31,
2008.
Allowances
for doubtful accounts receivable balances are recorded when circumstances
indicate that collection is doubtful for particular accounts receivable or as a
general reserve for all accounts receivable. Management estimates
such allowances based on historical evidence such as amounts that are subject to
risk. Accounts receivable are written off if reasonable collection
efforts are not successful.
Based on
management’s evaluation of historical experience, the following policy for
allowance of doubtful accounts is established:

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies-continued
(s)
Non-controlling interests
As of
March 31, 2009 , Tianjin Huan Long Trading directly held a 1% non-controlling
interest in Tianjin Singocean and held a 0.5% non-controlling interest interest
in Qinhuangdao Chengsheng Gas Co., Ltd.
(t)
Discontinued Operations
Effective
September 26, 2008, the Group entered into an asset swap in which it disposed of
our former subsidiary Hunchun.
In
accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets”, Hunchun operation is being accounted for as discontinued
operations and, accordingly, its operating results are segregated and reported
as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated statement of
operations for the three months ended March 31, 2008.
(u) Advertising
and Promotion Costs
Costs
incurred in direct-response advertising are capitalized and amortized on a
straight-line basis over the duration of the advertising campaign. As of March
31, 2009 and 2008, there was no capitalized direct-response advertising. All
other advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising and promotion
costs were nil for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008.
(v) Post-Retirement
and Post-Employment Benefits
The
Group’s subsidiaries contribute to a state pension plan in respect of its PRC
employees. Other than the above, neither the Group nor its subsidiary provides
any other post-retirement or post-employment benefits.
(w) Shipping
and Handling Costs
Shipping
and handling costs related to delivery of finished goods are included in other
selling, general and administrative expenses. During the three months ended
March 31, 2009 and 2008, shipping and handling costs were nil.
(x) Seasonality
Our
pipeline distribution networks are primarily located in northeastern China,
which is extremely cold during the winter months. During such time,
we are unable to construct new primary gas pipelines. However, if a
primary pipeline is already in place, we are able to connect new customers to
our distribution network during the winter months. Additionally, gas consumption
by residential customers is higher in the winter months for heating purposes,
and we see a corresponding increase in usage during that time.
(y)
New Accounting Pronouncements
Effective
July 1, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC”) became the single official source of
authoritative, nongovernmental generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)
in the United States. The historical GAAP hierarchy was eliminated and the ASC
became the only level of authoritative GAAP, other than guidance issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Our accounting policies were not affected by
the conversion to ASC.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies-continued
In
December 2007, the FASB amended its guidance on accounting for business
combinations. The new accounting guidance resulted in a change in our accounting
policy effective January 1, 2009, and is being applied prospectively to all
business combinations subsequent to the effective date. Among other things, the
new guidance amends the principles and requirements for how an acquirer
recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets
acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the acquiree
and the goodwill acquired. It also establishes new disclosure requirements to
enable the evaluation of the nature and financial effects of the business
combination. The adoption of this new accounting policy affects our acquisitions
made during 2009.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued new accounting and disclosure guidance related to
non-controlling interests in subsidiaries (previously referred to as minority
interests), which resulted in a change in our accounting policy effective
January 1, 2009. Among other things, the new guidance requires that a
non-controlling interest in a subsidiary be accounted for as a component of
equity separate from the parent's equity, rather than as a liability. The new
guidance is being applied prospectively, except for the presentation and
disclosure requirements, which have been applied retrospectively. The adoption
of this new accounting policy affects the presentation and disclosure of
non-controlling interests on our consolidated financial statements.
In August
2009, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) regarding measuring
liabilities at fair value. This ASU provides additional guidance clarifying the
measurement of liabilities at fair value in circumstances in which a quoted
price in an active market for the identical liability is not available; under
those circumstances, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using
one or more of the valuation techniques, as defined. This ASU is effective for
the first reporting period, including interim periods, beginning after the
issuance of this ASU. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on
the Group’s consolidated financial statements.
In
January 2010, the FASB issued an accounting standard update to address the
accounting for distributions to shareholders with components of stock and cash
(A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This amendment to Topic
505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows
them to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on the amount of cash that
will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505
and 260 for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and
should be applied on a retrospective basis. The Group does not expect the
provisions of this ASU to have a material effect on the financial position,
results of operations, or cash flows of the Group.

August
20, 2008 Private Placement - Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred
Stock
In
connection with the August 20, 2008 private placement, the Company filed a
Certificate of Designations of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware
(the "Certificate"). The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation authorizes
it to issue 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock and by the filing, 5,500,000
shares were designated as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock ("Series A
Preferred Stock"). On August 20, 2008, the Company issued 1,857,373 shares
of Series A Preferred Stock to China Hand Fund I, LLC (“China
Hand”).
At March
31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, 1,857,373 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock were issued and outstanding.
Dividends
The
holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative
dividends at a rate of 6% per annum of the stated price paid per share of $4.83,
compounded daily and payable semi-annually on June 1 and December
1. Dividends are payable in shares of Common Stock or, at the option of the
Company, in cash. If paid in shares of Common Stock, the number of shares to be
issued is determined by dividing the dividend payable by 90% of the
volume-weighted average price for the 20 days preceding the dividend payment
date of June 1 or December 1. As long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock
are outstanding, the Company may not declare or pay dividends with respect to
the Common Stock.
Voting
Rights
In
addition to the right to vote as a separate class of securities, the holders of
the Preferred Stock are entitled to vote together with the holders of the
Company’s Common Stock, with each such holder of Series A Preferred Stock
entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of the Company’s
Common Stock in to which such Series A Preferred Stock would be converted if
converted on the record date for the taking of a vote. However, for so long as
the number of outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock is at least 30% of
the total number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock originally issued, the
holders of Series B Preferred Stock vote together as a single class with the
holders of the Company’s Common Stock and the holders of any other class or
series of shares entitled to vote with the Common Stock, including the Series A
Preferred Stock, with the holders of Series B Preferred Stock being entitled to
70% of the total votes on all such matters regardless of the actual number of
shares of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding, and the holders of Series A
Preferred Stock and Common Stock being entitled to their proportional share of
the remaining 30% of the total votes based on their respective voting
power.
Liquidation
Upon any
liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, whether voluntary or
involuntary (each, a “Liquidation Event”), the holders of the Series A
Preferred Stock are entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company,
whether such assets are capital or surplus, for each share of Series A Preferred
Stock an amount equal to $4.83, plus any accumulated but unpaid dividends
thereon (the “Liquidation Value”), before any distribution or payment is made to
the holders of any securities which are junior to the Series A Preferred Stock
upon the occurrence of a Liquidation Event and after any distributions or
payments made to holders of any class or series of securities which are senior
to the Series A Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of a Liquidation Event. If
the assets of the Company are insufficient to pay in full such amounts, then the
entire assets to be distributed to the Series A Holders will be distributed
among the Series A Holders ratably in accordance with the respective amounts
that would be payable on such shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in
full. In the event the assets of the Company available for distribution to the
holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of a
Liquidation Event are insufficient to pay in full all amounts to which such
holders are entitled, no such distribution shall be made on account of any
shares of any other class or series of capital stock of the Company ranking on a
parity with the shares of Series A Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of such
Liquidation Event unless proportionate distributive amounts are paid on account
of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock, ratably, in proportion to the full
distributable amounts for which holders of all such parity shares are
respectively entitled upon the occurrence of such Liquidation
Event.

Stock
Conversion
Each
share of Series A Preferred Stock is initially convertible, at any time at the
option of the holder, into 35 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, subject to
future adjustments as provided for in the Certificate. The Series A Preferred
Stock will automatically convert into shares of the Company’s Common Stock
immediately prior to any transaction resulting in a Change in Control of the
Company. Further, provided there is an effective registration statement covering
the shares to be received on conversion, the Company may require conversion of
the Series A Preferred Stock if the volume-weighted average price for at least
20 trading days in any consecutive 30 day period equals or exceeds twice the
conversion price and the trading volume on each day in the 30 day period has
equaled or exceeded 100,000 shares.
The
conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock will be adjusted for standard
anti-dilution events, including stock dividends or stock splits or
reclassification of shares of the Common Stock. For as long as any shares of
Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company may not enter into any
Variable Rate Transactions or Most Favored Nation transactions. If the Company
does enter into a Variable Rate Transaction, in which it issues debt or equity
securities that are convertible into shares of Common Stock at a conversion or
exercise price that is based upon or varies with the trading price for shares of
the Common Stock or enters into a Most Favored Nation transaction in which the
Company issues any securities in a capital raising transaction or series of
transactions on terms more favorable than those granted to the holders of the
Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are
entitled to adjustment of the conversion price and to receive additional shares
or other rights. Furthermore, if the Company issues (except in an underwritten
public offering approved by holders of the Series A Preferred Stock in which the
gross proceeds to the Company are not less than $20 million) any shares of
Common Stock or securities convertible into shares of Common Stock at a price
which is less than the conversion price then in effect, the conversion price
will be reduced to that lower price.
As long
as 20% of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock remain outstanding,, the
Company may not issue any other preferred stock (except for the issuance of
Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock issued pursuant to the
agreements under which those Series were originally issued) or any convertible
debt convertible into Common Stock, without the consent of the holders of
outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

Warrants
On August
20, 2008, the Company consummated a private placement transaction in which it
issued and sold to China Hand, 1,857,373 shares of the Company's Series A
Preferred Stock and warrants to purchase 13,001,608 shares of the Company's
common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.187 per share (subject to
adjustments) for a period of 5 years following the date of issuance, for a
purchase price of $9 million in gross proceeds. The proceeds left the
Company with $7,076,302 in net proceeds after the deduction of offering expenses
in the amount of $1,923,698 and which includes a cash fee equal to $900,000,
representing 10% of the gross proceeds received from the Private Placement to
Kuhns Brothers and other offering costs of $1,023,698. Currently, none of the
warrants have been exercised.
Kuhns
Brothers Securities Corporation (
“
Kuhns

”
)
acted as placement agent in connection with the Private Placement. As
compensation for its services, Kuhns Brothers received a cash fee equal to
$900,000, representing 10% of the gross proceeds received from the Private
Placement, as well as warrants to purchase 6,500,804 shares of the Company’s
common stock (the “Agent Warrants”), representing 10% of the aggregate number of
shares of common stock issuable to China Hand upon conversion of the Preferred
Stock sold in the Private Placement.
The fair
value of the 13,001,608 warrants issued with the Series A Redeemable Convertible
Preferred Stock was $1,968,182 to investors and the fair value of the 6,500,804
warrants issued to the placement agent was $984,091 at the issuance date and the
total amount was $2,952,273. The fair value was computed using the
Cox-Ross-Rubinstein (“CRR”) Binomial Model under the following assumptions: (1)
expected life of 5 years, (2) volatility of 66%, (3) risk free interest rate of
3% and dividend rate of 0%.
As at
March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the fair value of the warrants was
$17,218,657 and $5,506,143, respectively. Therefore, the Company recognized a
loss of $11,712,514 and $2,553,870 loss from the change in fair value for the
quarter ended March 31, 2009 and for the year ended December 31,

Make Good
Provision
The
Company agreed to make good provisions that will require the Company to issue to
China Hand up to an aggregate of 1,114,442 (557,221 shares for each of 2008 and
2009) additional shares of its Preferred Stock if it does not achieve the
targeted after-tax net income and earnings per share targets for 2008 and 2009.
The 2008 after tax net income target is $4,300,000, and the 2008 earnings per
share target is $0.0261 on a fully-diluted basis. The 2009 after tax net income
target is $6,000,000 and the 2009 earnings per share target is $0.0294 on a
fully diluted basis; provided that if the Subsequent Closing does not occur
within 30 days of the filing of the Company’s 2008 annual report on Form 10-K.
As of December 31, 2008, the Company has not met the 2008 Income Target of
$4,300,000.
The
Company agreed to issue to China Hand 241,545 shares of Series A Preferred Stock
because the Company did not meet the 2008 earnings target.
Management
Incentive
China
Hand agreed to place in escrow 46,434 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, to be
issued to certain members of the Company’s management as a performance incentive
if the 2008 and 2009 earnings targets were met. The 2008 earnings target was not
met and the shares were returned to China Hand. In connection with the May 1,
2009 private placement with China Hand, the number of shares to be provided as
an incentive for 2009 was revised to 22,328 shares of Series B Preferred
Stock.

Stock
Registration Right
Liabilities
In
connection with the private placement, the Group and China Hand entered into
a Registration Rights Agreement dated August 20, 2008, in which the Group
agreed to register all of the shares of Common Stock underlying the securities
issued to China Hand. The Agreement requires the Group to file the required
Registration Statement within 45 days of August 20, 2008 and
achieve effectiveness within 150 days, i.e., file by October 4, 2008
and achieve effectiveness by January 17, 2009.
The Group
is subject to registration delay payments if it is unable to file the
Registration Statement, cause it to become effective or maintain its
effectiveness as required by the Registration Rights
Agreement. Registration delay payments accrue at a rate of 1% per
month of the aggregate investment amount paid by the holder or $90,000 per
month, provided that the maximum aggregate amount of the registration delay
payments will be $1,350,000, or 15% of the gross proceeds of the private
placement.
As of
December 31, 2008, the Group has not filed the required Registration Statement.
Management currently expects to file the required Registration Statement and use
it best efforts to have it effective by December, 2009. In accordance with the
guidance in EITF 00-19-2, the Group has accrued the $90,000 per month
registration delay payments for the 15 month period from October, 2008 to
December, 2009 and as of March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, has accrued an
amount of $1,350,000 and $900,000 for these registration delay payments
respectively.
August
20, 2008 Private Placement - Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred
Stock
Accounting
In
accordance with the guidance in FAS 133
Derivatives and Hedging –
Recognition
, the Series A Preferred Stock is considered to be an equity
instrument and, accordingly, the embedded conversion option has not been
separated and accounted for as a derivative financial instrument. After
allocating $1,968,182 to the initial fair value of the warrants issued to China
Hand, the remaining proceeds received from China Hand of $7,031,818 were
allocated to the carrying value of the Series A Preferred Stock. As required by
EITF 00-27
Beneficial
Conversion Features
, the Company recognized a beneficial conversion
feature as of the date of issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock. The amount
of the beneficial conversion feature exceeded the proceeds allocated to the
carrying value of the Series A Preferred Stock and, accordingly, the beneficial
conversion feature recorded was limited to the allocated proceeds. Because the
holders of the Series A Preferred Stock may convert their shares at any time,
the beneficial conversion feature recorded of $7,031,818 was immediately
recognized as a deemed dividend to those holders.
As
discussed above, the Company was obligated to issue additional shares of Series
A Preferred Stock to China Hand if the Company did not meet prescribed earnings
targets for 2008 and 2009. This obligation represents a contingent
beneficial conversion feature, which would be accounted for at the date the
contingency is resolved. Because all of the proceeds allocated to the Series A
Preferred Stock were recognized at inception as a beneficial conversion feature,
no further recognition of any beneficial conversion feature is permitted and the
241,545 additional shares issued to China Hand because the 2008 earnings target
was not met have been recorded at their par value.
Because
the Series A Preferred Stock has conditions for its redemption that may be
outside our control, including the right of the holders to request redemption at
the liquidation value in the event of a Fundamental Transaction or a Change in
Control, in accordance with EITF D-098
Distinguishing Liabilities from
Equity
, the Series A Preferred Stock has been classified outside of
Stockholders’ Equity in our consolidated balance sheet. Because the Company
believes that it is not probable that the Series A Preferred Stock will become
redeemable, the carrying value of the Series A Preferred Stock is not being
adjusted to its redemption value.

Income Taxes
USA
The Group
and its subsidiary and branch divisions are subject to income taxes on an entity
basis on income arising in, or derived, from the tax jurisdiction in which they
operate. As the Group had no income generated in the United States, there was no
tax expense or tax liability due to the Internal Revenue Service of the United
States as of March 31, 2009.
BVI
Willsky
incorporated under the international Business Companies Act of the British
Virgin Islands and, accordingly is exempted from payment of British Virgin
Islands income taxes.
PRC
Pursuant
to the PRC Income Tax Laws, the prevailing statutory rate of enterprise income
tax is 25% for Singocean, Acheng, and Daishiquiao, whereas Chensheng is being
taxed on 0.8% of its annual sales.
The Group
had no material adjustments to its liabilities for unrecognized income tax
benefits according to the provisions of FIN 48. The income tax
expense was $997 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008,
respectively. The Group has recorded no deferred tax assets or
liabilities as of March 31, 2009 and 2008, since nearly all differences in tax
basis and financial statement carrying values are permanent
differences.
Our
policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record
such items as a component of income tax expenses. There were no interest and
penalties recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Earnings Per Share
Basic
earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing the earnings for the periods by
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted
earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of securities by including
other potential common stock, including stock options and warrants, in the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding for a period, if
dilutive. The numerators and denominators used in the computations of
basic and dilutive EPS are presented in the following table:

Concentrations and Credit Risk
Cash -
Cash includes cash on hand and demand deposits in accounts maintained with state
owned banks within the PRC. The Group considers all highly liquid instruments
purchased with original maturities of three months or less, and money market
accounts, to be cash equivalents. Total cash in these banks at March 31, 2009
and 2008 amounted to $3,634,032 and $5,612,356, respectively, of which no
deposits were covered by insurance. Also, as of March 31, 2009 and 2008, the
Group held $220,737 and $221,152 in restricted cash in a corporate legal
counsel’s trust account respectively, in accordance with an agreement with
investors for the restricted use of preferred stock dividend and investor
relation related expenses. Nonperformance by these institutions could expose the
Group to losses not covered by insurance. Management reviews the financial
condition of these institutions on a periodic basis. The Group has
not incurred any losses on these accounts from nonperformance by the
aforementioned institutions.
Major
customers –For the three months ended March 31, 2009, one customer accounted for
approximately 45% of the Company’s sales and four customers accounted for
approximately 58% of the Company’s accounts receivable as of March 31, 2009. For
the three months ended March 31, 2008, no customers accounted for more than 10%
of the Company’s sales and two customers accounted for approximately 90% of the

Political
and economic risks - The Group's operations are carried out in the PRC.
Accordingly, the Group's business, financial condition, and results of
operations may be influenced by the political, economic, and legal environments
in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC's economy. The Group's
operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant
risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western
Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political,
economic, and legal environments, and foreign currency exchange. The Group's
results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with
respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion
and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among
others.
The Group
does not require collateral to support financial instruments that are subject to
credit risk.
Environmental
Matters - The Group does not anticipate any material future cash requirements
related to environmental issues. If circumstances change, the Group will record
the estimated charges necessary to return sites to their original
condition.

consequently exposed to risk of loss. Management believes the probability of a
bank failure, causing loss to the Group, is remote.

Overview
of Our Business
We are a
natural gas company engaged in the development of natural gas distribution
networks, and the distribution of natural gas to residential, industrial and
commercial customers in small and medium sized cities in China.
We
currently own the exclusive rights to develop distribution networks to provide
natural gas to industrial, commercial and residential consumers in the cities of
Dashiqiao, Nandaihe and Zhanhua. Currently, these distribution networks provide
natural gas to an aggregate of approximately 64,000 consumers in these
cities.
We
procure our natural gas by purchasing natural gas from third-party suppliers.
Once natural gas is extracted by the supplier, all water content and impurities
are removed. Natural gas is then delivered by truck to either (1) our
natural gas supply stations, where the gas is either depressurized and then
delivered to households through pipelines or delivered directly to customers in
pressurized tanks, or (2) to gas stations where the gas is sold for use in motor
vehicles.
Our major
business activities include development and construction of local gas
distribution networks, transportation of natural gas from suppliers to our
storage facilities in a given operational location, and operating and
maintaining the gas distribution networks.
Our
Organizational Structure
China New
Energy Group Company was incorporated on March 28, 2008 in the state of Delaware
USA, under the name of Travel Hunt Holdings, Inc. On May 27, 2008, Travel Hunt
changed its name to China New Energy Group Company in connection with a share
exchange transaction as described below.
Willsky
Development was incorporated on May 31, 2005 in the British Virgin Islands. On
March 28, 2008, Travel Hunt Holdings, Inc. completed a reverse acquisition
transaction with Willsky whereby Travel Hunt Holdings, Inc. issued to the
shareholder of Willsky 94,908,650 shares of Travel Hunt Holdings, Inc. common
stock in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of
Willsky Development. Simultaneous with the consummation of the share exchange
agreement, the shareholder of Willsky, Eternal International Holding Group Ltd,
a Hong Kong corporation, or Eternal International, distributed 85,417,785 shares
of Travel Hunt Holdings, Inc. common stock as a dividend. Accordingly, following
this distribution, Eternal International beneficially owns approximately 9.49%
of Travel Hunt Holdings, Inc. outstanding capital stock. Willsky thereby became
Travel Hunt Holdings, Inc.’s wholly-owned subsidiary and the former shareholders
of Willsky became Travel Hunt Holdings, Inc. controlling
stockholders.
For
accounting purposes, the acquisition was accounted for as a recapitalization
effected by a share exchange, and the transaction treated as a reverse
acquisition with Willsky as the acquirer and Travel Hunt Holdings, Inc. as the
acquired party. The assets and liabilities of the acquired entity (Willsky) were
brought forward at their book value and no goodwill was recognized.
In 2005,
Willsky acquired a 99% shareholding of Tianjin Sing Ocean Public Utility
Development Co., Ltd. (“Singocean”) which was formed in the PRC as an equity
joint venture to be operated for a period of 50 years until January 18, 2054
with registered capital of $4.5 million (RMB31,897,000). Singocean has two
branch divisions, namely Acheng SingOcean and Dashiqiao SingOcean, and
established in the PRC to be operated for a period of 5 years until December 28,
2010 and 50 years until January 18, 2054, respectively.
ChenSheng
- On September 16, 2008, we, through our 99%-owned subsidiary
SingOcean entered into an Equity Swap Agreement with Mr. Xiu Hai Tian,
whereby we acquired from Mr. Tian a 49% ownership interest in
Chensheng, in exchange for our 99% ownership in Hunchun Sing
Ocean. The parties to the Equity Swap Agreement determined that the
value of the 49% interest in Chensheng Gas and the 99% interest in Hunchun Sing
Ocean were approximately equal and therefore there was no cash or other
consideration involved in the transaction from either party.
On
December 10, 2008, the Company entered into an Agreement for Equity Transfer
with the holders of the remaining 51% outstanding equity in
Chensheng. Pursuant to the Agreement for Equity Transfer, the Company
agreed to purchase the remaining 51% of the outstanding equity of Chensheng Gas
from 17 individuals for an aggregate purchase price of RMB 12.56 million
(approximately $1.84 million). The transaction was consummated on
December 30, 2008, following which the Company now owns 51% of the equity of
Chensheng, and Tianjin Sing Ocean now owns 49% of the equity of
Chensheng.
On
January 12, 2009, Tianjin Investment was established in the PRC and engaged in
the business of investment holding.
On
January 23, 2009, Yingkou Zhongneng was established in the PRC and engaged in
the business of natural gas distribution network in the city of
Dashiqiao.
Critical Accounting
Policies
Accounting
policies discussed in this section are those that we consider to be most
critical to an understanding of our financial statements because they inherently
involve significant judgment and uncertainties. For all of these
estimates, we caution that future events rarely develop exactly as forecast, and
the best estimates routinely require adjustment.
Revenue
Recognition
Among the
accounting policies adopted by the Group, the most critical one is the policy
regarding revenue recognition of the Group’s major sources of income, namely,
gas connection services and sales of gases. In accordance with the SEC's Staff
Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104, under this policy, all of the following
criteria must be met in order for us to recognize revenue:
1. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement
exists;
2. Delivery has occurred or services have
been rendered;
3. The seller's price to the buyer is fixed
or determinable; and
4. Collectibility is reasonably
assured.
Gas
connection revenue
Gas
connection revenue is recognized when the outcome of a contract can be estimated
reliably and the stage of completion at the balance sheet date can be measured
reliably.
Revenue
from gas connection contracts is recognized on the percentage of completion
method, measured by reference to the value of work carried out during the year.
When the outcome of a gas connection contract cannot be estimated reliably,
revenue is recognized only to the extent of contract costs incurred that it is
probable will be recoverable.
When the
outcome of a gas connection contract can be estimated reliably and the stage of
contract completion at the balance sheet date can be measured reliably, contract
costs are charged to the income statement by reference to the stage of
completion of the contract activity at the balance sheet date on the same basis
as revenue from the gas connection contract is recognized.
When the
outcome of a gas connection contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract
costs are recognized as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. When
it is probable that total contract costs will exceed contract revenue, the
expected loss is recognized as an expense immediately.
Where
contract costs incurred to date plus recognized profits less recognized losses
exceed progress billings, the surplus is shown as an amount due from customers
for contract work. For contracts where progress billings exceed contract costs
incurred to date plus recognized profits less recognized losses, the surplus is
shown as an amount due to customers for contract work. Amounts received before
the related work is performed are included in the consolidated balance sheet, as
a liability, as advances received. Amounts billed for work performed but not yet
paid by the customer are included in the consolidated balance sheet under trade
and other receivables.
During
the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, all the contracts for connection
services were started and completed.
Revenue
from sale of gas
Sales
revenue from sale of gas represents the invoiced value of goods sold, net of
value-added tax (“VAT”). Revenue from sale of gas is recognized when the goods
are delivered and title has passed.
All of
the Company’s products that are sold in the PRC are subject to Chinese
value-added tax of 3% of the gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT
paid by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost of
producing their finished product. The Company recorded VAT payable and VAT
receivable net of payments in the financial statements.
Use
of Estimates
In
preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP,
management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and
expenses during the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those
estimates
Significant
Estimates
These
consolidated financial statements include some amounts that are based on
management's best estimates and judgments. The most significant estimates relate
to revenue recognition of gas connection contracts, depreciation of property,
plant and equipment, the valuation allowance for deferred taxes, impairment
testing of intangible assets and various contingent liabilities. It is
reasonably possible that the above-mentioned estimates and others may be
adjusted as more current information becomes available, and any adjustment could
be significant in future reporting periods.
Reportable
Operating Segments
For the
three months ended March 31, 2009, we had sales revenue of $0.33
million of which $0.15 million was from connection services while
$0.18 million, or 55%, was from gas sales.
Our
revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was contributed by the
connection services and providing natural gas to commercial and residential
customers. Connection services is provided by Chensheng,

Revenues
. Revenues
are derived primarily from connection fees and sales of natural
gas. Revenues increased $0.23 million, or 219%, to
$0.33 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from
$0.10 million for the same period in 2008. This increase was mainly
attributable to an increase in number of connection households.
Cost of
Sales
. Cost of sales consists primarily of connection
costs and purchase of natural gas from our suppliers and
depreciation.
Our cost
of sales increased by $0.20 million, or 263%, to $0.28 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2009 from $0.08 million during the same period
in 2008. Such increase was mainly attributable to a increase in the number of
households connected to our distribution network.
Gross
Profit
.
Our
gross profit increased by $0.02 million, or 91%, to $0.05 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $0.03 million during the same
period in 2008. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues, or gross
profit margin, was 15% for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The
gross profit margin during the same period in 2008 was 25%. Such decrease in
gross profit margin was mainly due to the increase of operating assets and thus
the increase in the cost allocation of depreciation.
Total Operating
Expenses
.
The total operating
expenses consist of two components, the first one is registration right
penalties and the other is general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”). For
the three months ended March 31, 2009, the total operating expenses were
$0.84 million while the amount was $0.25 milloion for the same period
of 2008, or increased by 239%. This increase was mainly due to the
fact that we are expanding our company. Management
believes that the relatively high SG&A expenses will continue as we
endeavor to expand our business.
Loss from Operations
.
Our loss from
operations increased by $0.57 million, or 256%, to $0.79 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2009 from $0.22 million during the
same period in 2008. This increase in loss from operations was mainly
due to increase in SG&A expense and registration right
penalties.
Other
Income (Expenses)
Change In Fair Value of Warrant
Liability:
For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the change in fair
value of warrant liability was recorded as other income of $11.71 million
while the one incurred in the same period of Year 2008 was nil.
The
Company adopted a FASB accounting standard, which defines determining whether an
instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to an entity’s own
stock. This accounting standard specifies that a contract that would
otherwise meet the definition of a derivative but is both (a) indexed to the
Company’s own stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the statement
of financial position would not be considered a derivative financial
instrument. This FASB accounting standard provides a new two-step
model to be applied in determining whether a financial instrument or an embedded
feature is indexed to an issuer’s own stock and thus able to qualify for the
scope exception.
As a
result of adopting this FASB accounting standard, warrants previously treated as
equity pursuant to the derivative treatment exemption are no longer afforded
equity treatment because the warrants have a downward ratchet provision on the
exercise price. As a result, the warrants are not considered indexed to the
Company’s own stock, and as such, all future changes in the fair value of these
warrants will be recognized currently in earnings until such time as the
warrants are exercised or expired.
On August
20, 2008, the fair value of the 13,001,608 warrants issued with the Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock to China Hand was $1.97 million and the fair value
of 6,500,804 warrants issued to Kuhns Brothers was $0.98 million. The fair value
was computed using the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein (“CRR”) Binomial Model under the
following assumptions: (1) expected life of 5 years, (2) volatility of 66%, (3)
risk free interest rate of 3% and dividend rate of 0%.
In year
2009, the Company changed the assumption of volatility of 66% to 90%. As at
March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the fair value of the warrants was $17.22
million and $5.51 million, respectively. Therefore, the Company recognized a
loss of $11.71 million loss from the change in fair value for the quarter ended
March 31, 2009.
Loss
From Continuing O
perations, Before Income
Tax.
Our loss from continuing operations before income tax
increased by $12.27 million, to $12.49 million, for the three months
ended March 31, 2009 from $0.22 million during the same period in
2008. Such increase was mainly due to the fact that the company
recorded a $11.71 million loss from the change in fair value of the
warrants which put through according to EITF 07-05.
Income
(Loss) From Discontinued Operation
The
income (loss) from the discontinued operation was due to the fact that, on
September 26, 2008, the Company entered into an asset swap in which it disposed
of the subsidiary Hunchun, including substantially (99%) of the net assets, for
a 49% ownership in Qinhuangdao Chensheng Gas Co. Ltd.
In
accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets”, Hunchun Singocean operation is being accounted for as
discontinued operations and, accordingly, its operating results are segregated
and reported as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated
statement of operations in 2008. There were no assets or liabilities of Hunchun
in the consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2008.
Disposal
of Hunchun in 2008

following table displays summarized activity in the Company's consolidated
statements of operations for discontinued operations of Hunchun during the three

Operating
Activities
Net cash
used in operating activities was $0.37 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2009, compared to net cash used in operating activities of
$0.21 million during the same period of 2008. This increase in funds used
in our operating activities was primarily due to the increase in prepayment
which was paid to the construction team and tax payables.
Investing
Activities
Our main
use of cash in investing activities was mainly for the construction of gas
pipelines and acquisition of assets.
Net cash
used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $2.04
million, which was an increase of $1.81 million
from $0.23 million for the same period of 2008. This
increase was due to payments made for the increased construction in
progress and fixed assets.
Financing
Activities
Our debt
to equity ratio was 523 % as of March 31, 2009. Net cash
provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was
$0.44 MM. The financing was mainly attributable to contribution from
Non-controlling interest.
Capital
Expenditures, Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Contingences
For the
three months ended March 31, 2009, the company spent about $2.04 million in
capital expenditures which was mainly for the construction of gas pipelines, gas
station and acquisition. The company settled the payments according to the terms
of the contract and fulfilled of its contractual obligations. Other
than the operating leases stated in Note 16 to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements, we have no other commitments and contingencies. As
disclosed in Note 16, the Company is obligated under operating leases to pay
minimum lease payments of approximately $0.21 million.
Seasonality
Our
pipeline distribution networks are primarily located in northeastern China,
which is extremely cold during the winter months. Additionally, gas consumption
by residential customers is higher in the winter months for heating purposes,
and there is a corresponding increase in usage during winter. However, due to
the cold weather we are unable to construct primary gas pipelines. If
a primary pipeline is already in place, we are able to connect new customers to
our distribution network during this time.
Effects
of Inflation
Our
business, revenues and operating results have not been affected in any material
way by inflation.
Off
Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not
have any off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to
have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial
condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital
expenditures or capital resources that is material to an investor in our
securities.

Evaluation of
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 Mr.
Yangkan Chong, our Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Eric Yu, our Chief Financial
Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our
disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2009. Based on
that evaluation, Mr. Chong and Mr. Yu concluded that as of March 31, 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 not effective in that certain of the “significant deficiencies” first
identified in the process of preparing our financial statements for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2008 continue to exit despite the implementation of the
remedial measures described below.
C
hanges in
Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
Under the
supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief
Executive officer and Chief Financial Officer, identified a number of
“significant deficiencies” in the process of preparing our financial statements
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 related to (i) the U.S. GAAP
expertise of our internal accounting staff, and (ii) our internal audit
functions.
Based on
that evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial
reporting were not effective, as of December 31, 2008.
During
the quarter ended March 31, 2009, we continued to take the remedial measures
described below that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Because
our current accounting department is relatively new to U.S. GAAP and the related
internal control procedures required of U.S. public companies, our management
has determined that they require additional training and assistance in U.S. GAAP
matters. Management has determined that our internal audit function is also
significantly deficient due to insufficient qualified resources to perform
internal audit functions.
In order
to correct the foregoing significant deficiencies, we continue to take the
following remediation measures:
|
·
|
We continue to arrange
necessary training for our accounting department
staff;
|
|
·
|
We continue to engage external
professional accounting or consultancy firms to assist us in the
preparation of the US GAAP
accounts;
|
|
·
|
We remain committed to the
establishment of effective internal audit functions; however, due to the
scarcity of qualified candidates with extensive experience in U.S. GAAP
reporting and accounting in the region, we were not able to hire
sufficient internal audit resources before the end of our reporting
period. However, we will increase our search for qualified
candidates with assistance from recruiters and through
referrals;
|
|
·
|
In addition, we have allocated
significant financial and human resources to strengthen the internal
control structure and we have been actively working with external
consultants to assess our data collection, financial reporting, and
control procedures and to strengthen our internal controls over financial
reporting.
|
We
believe that the foregoing steps will remediate the significant deficiencies
identified above, and we will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these
steps and make any changes that our management deems appropriate.
