Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007
(Unaudited)
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)

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

Nature of Business

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

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

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

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

(i)

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

After the Share Exchange Transaction and the Financing, the total common stock issued and outstanding of the Company is 36,125,754.

The Company amended its articles of incorporation on August 14, 2008 and changed its name into China Nutrifruit Group Limited.

On October 10, 2008, the Company completed a private placement financing with certain investors (the “Financing”). Pursuant to the terms of the securities purchase agreement, the Company sold 3,085,840 shares of the Company’s common stock at the price of $2.78 per share and received a gross proceed of $8,578,705.73.

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

Fezdale Investments Limited

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

In May 2008, the six founders of Longheda transferred the remaining 25% equity interests in Longheda to Solar Sun. After the transfer, Longheda became the wholly owned subsidiary of Solar Sun (note 3).

Basis of presentation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of China Nutrifruit Group Limited and its subsidiaries (the “Group”). The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the US GAAP.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three and nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007
(Unaudited)
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)

Use of estimates

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

Segment information

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

Economic and political risks

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

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

Earnings per share

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

Trade accounts receivable

In the normal course of business, the Group extends credit to customers. Trade accounts receivable, less allowance for doubtful accounts, reflect the net realizable value of receivables, and approximate fair value. On a regular basis, the Group evaluates its trade accounts receivable and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on a combination of specific customer circumstances, credit conditions, and payment history. A receivable is considered past due if payments have not been received within the agreed upon invoice terms. No allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2008 was recorded. Trade accounts receivable is charged off against the allowance after management determines the potential for recovery is remote.

(Stated in U.S. Dollars)

Cash and cash equivalents

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

Inventories

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

Fair value of financial instruments

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

Property, plant and equipment, net

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. The principal estimated useful lives generally are: buildings and leasehold improvements – 20 years; machinery and equipment - 10 years. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment was $660,769 for the nine months period ended December 31, 2008. During the idle period of the plant, depreciation is treated as current-period charges, which charge directly to general and administrative expense.

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. Goodwill is tested at least annually for impairment using a two-step process. The first step is to identify a potential impairment, and the second step measures the amount of the impairment loss, if any. Impairment exists if the carrying amount of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its estimated fair value.

Negative goodwill represents the excess fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination over the purchase price. The negative goodwill is allocated as a pro rata reduction of the amounts assigned to the assets acquired excluding financial assets, deferred taxes and other current assets. If negative goodwill exceeds the amount of those assets, the remaining excess shall be recognized as an extraordinary gain in the period which the business combination is completed. (note 3)

Revenue recognition

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

Comprehensive income

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

Shipping and handling costs

Shipping and handling costs are included in selling expenses. The shipping and handling costs for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 was $1,464,741.

Impairment of long-lived assets

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

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

Advertising costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The total advertising costs were $9,359 for the nine months ended December 31, 2008.

Other income recognition

Other income comprised of interest income and others.

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

Foreign currency translation

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

Statutory reserves

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

Surplus reserve fund

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

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

Common welfare fund

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

Related party transactions

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

Income taxes

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

NOTE 2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

NOTE 3 – ACQUISITION OF A SUBSIDIARY

In November 2007, Solar Sun entered into a share purchase agreement with six owners of Longheda to acquire the 75% interest in Longheda with a total consideration of RMB40,000,000.

In May 2008, Solar Sun entered into another share purchase agreement with six owners of Longheda to acquire the remaining 25% interests in Longheda with a total consideration of RMB10,000,000. Since the beneficial owners of the Company were third parties independent of Longheda and the Group has obtained the controlling interests in Longheda, the acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. As of the acquisition date, the Group recorded the fair values of Longheda assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The allocation of the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed as at the date of acquisition is as follows:

  $  
       
Cash and cash equivalents   5,666,951  
Trade accounts receivable   2,389,049  
Inventories   1,126,973  
Other current assets   2,477,178  
Property, plant and equipment, net   11,107,547

Minority interests   (13,452,363 )
Statutory reserves   (1,713,065 )
Negative goodwill   (3,052,439 )
       
Total purchase price   1,431,682  

The allocation of the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed as at the date of acquisition resulted in negative goodwill of $3,052,439. In accordance with SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, the negative goodwill was allocated as a pro rata reduction of the amounts assigned to the assets acquired excluding financial assets, deferred taxes and other current assets. This resulted in the following allocation of negative goodwill:

  $  
Property, plant and equipment, net   2,920,266  
Land use right, net   132,173  
Negative goodwill   3,052,439

NOTE 10, PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

The provision for income tax is as follows:

For the nine months period ended December 31,
    2008     2007  
             
Current:            
PRC $  3,248,958   $  293,824  
Other jurisdictions   -     -  
Deferred:            
PRC   -     -  
Other jurisdictions   -     -  
    3,248,958     293,824  

At December 31, 2008, the Group did not have material valuation allowance that would result into any deferred tax assets.

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

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

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

The Group adopted the provisions of FIN 48 effective August 22, 2007. Based on its FIN 48 analysis, the Group concluded that the adoption of FIN 48 did not have any impact on the Group’s total liabilities or owners’ equity. The Group’s classifies interests and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expenses. As of March 31, 2008, the Group did not have interests and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Group does not anticipate any significant increases or decrease to its liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.

The provision for income taxes appearing in the consolidated statement of income represents the current tax expenses. A reconciliation between the provision for income taxes computed by PRC enterprise income tax rate to income before income taxes is as follows:

For the nine months period ended December 31,
        2008 2007
  % %
Statutory rate 25 33
Tax effect of preferential tax treatment granted by the State Tax Bureau of the PRC - (18)
  25 15

NOTE 11. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

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

NOTE 12. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

General

The Company’s total authorized capital at December 31, 2008, is 125,000,000 shares of which 120,000,000 shares are common stock of par value $0.001 and 5,000,000 shares are preferred stock of par value $0.001. At December 31, 2008, 36,125,754 shares of common stock and none of the shares of preferred stock, respectively, were issued and outstanding.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PROFORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS

On August 14, 2008, China Nutrifruit Group Limited acquired all of the equity interests of Fezdale Investments Limited ("Fezdale"), a British Virgin Islands corporation, through a share exchange transaction (the "Share Exchange Transaction"), with the result that the stockholders of Fezdale became the beneficial owners of approximately 83.5% of the Company’s common stock. As a result of such Share Exchange Transaction, Fezdale became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the former shareholders of Fezdale became the Company’s controlling shareholders. Accordingly, all references to shares of Fezdale’s ordinary shares have been restated to reflect the equivalent numbers of the common stock of China Nutrifruit Group Limited.

China Nutrifruit Group Limited completed the acquisition of Fezdale, pursuant to the share exchange agreement, in August 2008. The acquisition would be accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein Fedzale is considered as the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes.

Pro forma adjustments on the attached financial statements include the following:

(A) To record the 1 for 10 reverse stock split of China Nutrifruit Group Limited’s common stock.

(B) To record the issuance of 30,166,878 shares of China Nutrifruit Group Limited’s common stock in connection with the recapitalization.

(C) To record the adjustment of depreciation of property, plant and equipment and amortization of land use rights due to the effect of negative goodwill arising from the acquisition of Longheda.

Such statements include, among others, those concerning our expected financial performance and strategic and operational plans, as well as all assumptions, expectations, predictions, intentions or beliefs about future events. You are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and that a number of risks and uncertainties could cause actual results of the Company to differ materially from those anticipated, expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” “targets,” “optimistic,” “intend,” “aim,” “will” or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be deemed forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated include risks related to new and existing products; any projections of sales, earnings, revenue, margins or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; uncertainties related to conducting business in China; any statements of belief or intention; any of the factors mentioned in the “Risk Factors” section of our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on August 14, 2008, and other risks and uncertainties mentioned in this Form 10-Q or our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company assumes no obligation and does not intend to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

Certain Terms

Except as otherwise indicated by the context, references in this report to:

  • “We,” “the Company,” “us,” “our company,” “our,” and “China Nutrifruit” refer to the combined business of China Nutrifruit Group Limited and its consolidated subsidiaries;

  • “Fezdale” refers to Fezdale Investments Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation which is our direct, wholly-owned subsidiary;

  • “Solar Sun” refers to Solar Sun Holdings Limited, a Hong Kong corporation which is our indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary;

  • “Longheda” refers to Daqing Longheda Food Company Limited, a Chinese corporation, our indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary;

  • “China,” “Chinese” and “PRC,” refer to the People’s Republic of China;

  • “Renminbi” and “RMB” refer to the legal currency of China; and

  • “U.S. dollars,” “dollars” and “$” refer to the legal currency of the United States.

Overview

We are a holding company and conduct virtually all our operations through our indirect, wholly owned subsidiary Longheda, which is a leading producer of premium specialty fruit based products in China. Until our acquisition of Fezdale on August 14, 2008, our operations were very limited and our business strategy and ownership changed several times over the previous years.

27


On August 14, 2008, we completed a reverse acquisition of Fezdale through a share exchange transaction whereby we issued 30,166,878 shares of our common stock to the stockholders of Fezdale, in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Fezdale. Fezdale thereby became our wholly owned subsidiary and the former stockholders of Fezdale became our controlling stockholders.

In connection with the reverse acquisition of Fezdale, on October 10, 2008, we completed a private placement of our common shares to certain investors for approximately $8.58 million in gross proceeds, resulting in approximately $6.84 million in net proceeds after payment of approximately $1.74 million in offering expenses.

As a result of our reverse acquisition of Fezdale, we now engage in developing, processing, marketing and distributing a variety of food products processed primarily from premium specialty fruits grown in Northeast China, including golden berries, crab apples, blueberries and raspberries. Our primary product offerings include fruit concentrate, nectar, glazed fruits, and beverage as well as fresh fruits. Our processed fruit products are mainly sold to food producers for further processing into fruit juice and other fruit based foods, and our fresh fruits are mainly sold to supermarkets and stores. We currently operate manufacturing facilities located in Daqing and Mu Dan Jiang, Heilongjiang Province, China where an abundant supply of a variety of premium specialty fruits is available. Our four fruit processing lines have an aggregate production capacity of 15,960 tons and our beverage production line has production capacity of 10,800 tons. We sell our products through an extensive nationwide sales and distribution network, which included 68 distributors as of December 31, 2008, covering 19 provinces and 41 cities in China.

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“US GAAP”) require that a company whose stockholders retain a majority interest in a combined business be treated as the acquirer for accounting purposes. As a result, in the share exchange transaction, Fezdale was treated as the accounting acquirer and China Nutrifruit Group Limited was treated as the acquired party for accounting purpose. Accordingly, the share exchange transaction has been accounted for a recapitalization of the Company and our financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, particularly the equity section of our financial statements, are presented to reflect the recapitalization resulting from the share exchange transaction.

Third Fiscal Quarter Financial Highlights

Like many other sectors of the economy and most of our competitors, our financial performance in the third quarter of fiscal 2009 was negatively affected by the current global economic contraction. Because our revenue is generated in RMB and our financial results are reported in U.S. dollar, we reported an increase in our revenue in this fiscal quarter, but the increase only resulted from the increased value in RMB against U.S. dollar. However, if our financial performance and operating results do not include the favorable exchange rate adjustment, our net sales revenue decreased slightly as compared to the same period last year. While we managed to sell slightly more products in this fiscal quarter as compared to the same period last year, we experienced a softening demand for our higher margin nectar and glazed fruit products and a decline in per unit sales price of our apple and crab apple fruit concentrate products in this quarter. We expect the demand for nectar and glazed fruit products to recover in the next a few quarters. In the meantime, we will continue to focus on reducing costs, increasing sales and improving our operational efficiency.

The following are some of our financial results for the third fiscal quarter of 2009 in comparison to our pro forma financial results for the third fiscal quarter of 2008:

  • Net Sales: Net sales increased $0.5 million, or 3.7%, to $13.9 million for the third fiscal quarter of 2009 from $13.4 million for the same period last year, primarily as a result of exchange rate fluctuations.

  • Gross Margin: Gross margin was 43.5% for the third fiscal quarter of 2009, as compared to 45.5% for the same period last year.

  • Net Income: Net income decreased $0.8 million, or 21.4%, to $3.3 million for the third fiscal quarter of 2009, from $4.1 million for the same period last year.

  • Fully diluted earnings per share: Fully diluted earnings per share were $0.09 for the third fiscal quarter of 2009, as compared to $0.13 for the same period last year. The decrease in fully diluted net income per share was mainly due to the fact that more shares of our common stock were outstanding in this quarter as a result of the shares issued in connection with the private placement transaction and share exchange transaction discussed above.

28


Taxation

United States

China Nutrifruit Group Limited is subject to United States income tax at a tax rate of 34%. No provision for income taxes in the United States has been made as China Nutrifruit had no income taxable in the United States during the three months ended December 31, 2008.

PRC

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

In 2007, China passed the new Enterprise Income Tax Law (the “New EIT Law”) and its implementing rules, both of which became effective on January 1, 2008. The New EIT Law significantly curtails tax incentives granted to foreign-invested enterprises under the previous law. The New EIT Law, however, (i) reduces the statutory rate of enterprise income tax from 33% to 25%, (ii) permits companies to continue to enjoy their existing tax incentives, adjusted by certain transitional phase-out rules, and (iii) introduces new tax incentives, subject to various qualification criteria. Longheda was subject to a tax rate of 15% in 2007 and is subject to a tax rate of 25% since 2008. We expect that the tax rate of 25% currently applicable to Longheda will remain unchange in 2009.

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

Results of Operations

We discuss below our results of operations based on the unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2008 and 2007. Solar Sun acquired 75% of the ownership of Longheda on November 12, 2007 and the remaining 25% on May 21, 2008. For the period from April 1, 2008 to May 21, 2008, we reflect 75% of the results of Longheda in our condensed consolidated financial statements. For the period from May 21, 2008 to December 31, 2008, we reflect 100% of the results of Longheda in our condensed consolidated financial statements. We believe a presentation of the Company’s results of operations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2007 on a pro forma basis provide the most meaningful guidance to investors in assessing performance between periods.

29


Comparison of Three Months Ended December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007

The results of operations below consolidated the financial results of our primary operating subsidiary, Longheda, into our condensed consolidated financial statements from October 1, 2008 to December 31, 2008. For comparison purposes, we have provided our results of operations in actual reported amounts for the three months ended December 31, 2008 and our results of operations on a pro forma basis for the three month ended December 31, 2007 to provide comparable presentation during such periods. We believe that presenting our financial statements and operating results as if we had consolidated Longheda provides investors with a consistent and meaningful measurement of operating results which are comparable with subsequent periods. We employ this financial reporting methodology internally when analyzing performance between periods, developing internal projections and measuring management performance.

The functional currency of the Company is RMB, however, our financial information is expressed in USD. The results of operations reported in the table above is based on the exchange rate of RMB7.44 to $1 for the three months ended December 31, 2007 and the rate of RMB6.85 to $1 for the three months ended December 31, 2008.

Net Sales . Our net sales consist of revenue derived from the sale of our fruit and fruit based products. Net sales modestly increased $0.5 million, or 3.7% to $13.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 from $13.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The increase resulted solely from the increased value of RMB, the currency in which we generate revenue, as compare to the U.S. dollar, which is the currency in which we report our financial results. In this quarter, our total sales volume increased slightly. However, as a result of the general economic slow-down and uncertainty, some of our customers reduced their purchase order for our nectar products and glazed fruit products which caused revenue from our higher margin nectar products and glazed fruit products to decrease approximately 32.5% and 18.9% in this quarter, respectively. In addition, the per unit sale price of our apple and crab apple fruit concentrate fell significantly as compared to the same period last year as a result of the significant price decline of apple in the third fiscal quarter. The per unit sale prices of our other products remain stable in this quarter.

30


Cost of Sales . Our cost of sales is primarily comprised of the costs of our raw materials, labor, overhead and sales tax. Our cost of sales increased $0.5 million, or 7.4%, to $7.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 from $7.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. This increase was primarily due to the increased value of RMB. As a percentage of net sales, the cost of sales was 56.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to 54.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2007.

Gross Profit . Our gross profit is equal to our net revenues less our cost of sales. Our gross profit decreased by $48,495 to $6.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 from $6.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 43.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to 45.5% for the same period last year. The decrease of gross margin was mainly due to the decreased sales of our higher margin nectar and glazed fruit products.

Selling and General and Administrative Expenses . Our selling and general and administrative expenses increased $0.4 million, or 39.3%, to $1.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 from $1.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007.

Our selling expenses include sales commissions, the cost of advertising and promotional materials, salaries and fringe benefits of sales personnel and other sales related costs. The selling expenses increased $220,382 or 30.4%, to $945,802 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 from $725,420 for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The increase was primarily attributed to the increase in transportation costs resulting primary from higher charge by transportation companies in this quarter. In addition, due to our expanded sales efforts, we were able to penetrate into some new market located at further distance from our facilities which also increased our transportation cost in this quarter.

Our general and administrative expenses include the costs associated with staff and support personnel who manage our business activities and professional fees paid to third parties. Our general and administrative expenses increased $234,722 or 54.7%, to $664,202 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 from $429,480 for the three months ended December 31, 2007. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2008 increased by 1.6% to 4.8%, as compared to 3.2% for the three months ended December 31, 2007. This percentage increase was primarily attributable to the increased cost of insurance benefits for certain of our employees as mandated by the PRC government in 2008 and the additional professional and staff costs incurred after the reverse acquisition transaction on August 14, 2008.

Interest Expenses. Our interest expenses increased $21,289 to $128,455 for the three months ended December 31, 2008 from $107,166 for the three months ended December 31, 2007. The increase in interest expenses was primarily attributable to a $0.8 million increase in the outstanding balances of our bank loans.

Income before Minority Interests and Income Taxes . Income before minority interests and income taxes decreased $0.5 million, or 10.9%, to $4.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 from $4.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007. Income before minority interests and income taxes as a percentage of net sales decreased from 36.1% for the three months ended December 31, 2007 to 31.0% for the three months ended December 31, 2008. The percentage decrease was primarily attributed to the decreased sales of our nectar and glazed fruit products and the additional professional and staff costs incurred after the reverse acquisition transaction on August 14, 2008.

Net Income . Our net income decreased $0.8 million or 21.4%, to $3.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 from $4.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2007, mainly as a result of general economic crisis which led to decreased sales of our nectar and glazed fruit products and a reduction in the per unit sales price of our apple and crab apple fruit concentrate products. In additional, we have incurred additional administrative expenses after the reverse acquisition transaction on August 14, 2008.

Comparison of Nine months Ended December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007

We have consolidated 75% of the results of Longheda into our condensed consolidated financial statements from April 1, 2008 to May 21, 2008 and 100% of the results Longheda into our condensed consolidated financial statements from May 21, 2008 to December 31, 2008. For comparison purposes, we have provided our results of operations in actual reported amounts for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and on a pro forma basis for the nine months ended December 31, 2007 to provide comparable presentation to our reported results during such periods. We believe that providing this financial information as if we had consolidated Longheda may assist investors in assessing historical performance between periods.

The results of operations reported in the table above is based on the exchange rate of RMB7.57 to $1 for the nine months ended December 31, 2007 and the rate of RMB6.89 to $1 for the three months ended December 31, 2008.

Net Sales. Our net sales increased $9.0 million, or 33.3% to $36.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 from $27.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007. The increase was primarily due to the increase of sales of our fruit processed products and expansion of our customer base in the first six months of fiscal 2009 and our increased brand recognition. We were able to satisfy the growth in demand by commencing operation of our Mu Dan Jiang factory production line and realized an increase in revenue from net sales due partly to that expansion of production capacity.

Cost of Sales. Our cost of sales increased $4.6 million, or 32.0%, to $19.0 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 from $14.4 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007. This increase was primarily due to the increase of sales volume. As a percentage of net sales, the cost of sales decreased to 52.5% for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 from 53.1% for the nine months ended December 31, 2007.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin. Our gross profit increased $4.5 million to $17.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 from $12.7 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 47.5% and 46.9% for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The increase in the gross margin was primarily driven by the increased sales of higher margin nectar, glazed fruits and fruit concentrate products for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 as compare to the sales for the nine months ended December 31, 2007.

32


Selling and General and Administrative Expenses. Our selling and general and administrative expenses increased $1.2 million, or 49.0%, to $3.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 from $2.4 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007.

Our selling expenses increased $0.5 million or 33.7%, to $2.0 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 from $1.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007. We believe the increase of our selling expenses is generally in line with the increase of our net sales.

Our general and administrative expenses increased $652,363, or 76.4%, to $1.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 from $853,440 for the nine months ended December 31, 2007. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 increased by 1.1% to 4.2%, as compared to 3.1% for the nine months ended December 31, 2007. This percentage increase was primarily attributable to the increased cost of insurance benefits for certain of our employees as mandated by the PRC government in 2008 and the additional professional and staff costs incurred after the reverse acquisition transaction on August 14, 2008.

Interest Expenses. Our interest expenses increased $36,953 to $318,050 for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 from $281,097 for the nine months ended December 31, 2007. The increase in interest expenses was primarily attributable to the increase in the outstanding balances of our bank loans.

Income before Minority Interest and Income Taxes. Income before minority interests and income taxes increased $3.3 million, or 32.2%, to $13.4 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 from $10.1 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007. Income before minority interests and income taxes as a percentage of net sales decreased slightly from 37.2% for the nine months ended December 31, 2007 to 36.9% for the nine months ended December 31, 2008. Such percentage decrease was primarily due to the increase in additional professional and staff costs incurred after the reverse acquisition transaction on August 14, 2008.

Minority Interests . Our financial statements reflect an adjustment to our consolidated group net income equal to $209,308 for the nine months ended December 31, 2008, reflecting the fact that we had only 75% ownership in Longheda from April 1, 2008 to May 20, 2008.

Net Income. Although we incurred a minority interest of $209,308 before the acquisition of the remain 25% ownership in Longheda on May 21, 2008, our net income increased $1.2 million or 14.4%, to $9.9 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 from $8.7 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2007. The main reasons for the growth of our net income were due to increased market demand for our products and expansion of our customer base in the first six months of fiscal year 2009, and increased brand recognition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2008, we had cash and cash equivalents of $8.4 million. The following table sets forth a summary of our cash flows for the periods indicated:

Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of the period   7,105     4,004  
Cash and cash equivalents at end of period   8,397     8,595  

Cash Flows from Operating Activities.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $4.9 million for nine months ended December 31, 2008, an increase of $3.3 million from $1.6 million provided by operating activities for nine months ended December 31, 2007. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to a $9.9 million increase in net income and a $7.4 million advance from our major shareholder Yiu Fai Kung made for the purpose of acquiring Longheda. Our inventory for finished products increased $10.5 million in the first nine months of fiscal year 2009 because our new fruit concentrate production line with a processing capacity of 6,000 tons became operational in August 2008 and we stocked up more finished products for sale for the coming months until the next harvest season.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities .

Our cash used in investing activities for nine months ended December 31, 2008 primarily related to our acquisition of the 25% of minority interest in Longheda for $1.5 million and the purchase of property, plant and equipment for the new concentrated fruit juice production line in Mu Dan Jiang for $13 million. We had no investing activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2007.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities .

Net cash provided by financing activities was $11.2 million in the nine months ended December 31, 2008. The net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2008 was mainly attributable to proceeds from bank loans of $4.4 million and $6.8 million from the private placement of our common stock completed on October 10, 2008.

As of December 31, 2008, the amount, maturity date and term of each of our bank loans are as follows:

(All amounts in millions of U.S. dollars)
Banks   Amounts     Maturity Date     Duration  
                   
Daqing City Commercial Bank $ 2.9     February 10, 2009
    6 months  
Daqing City Commercial Bank   4.4       August 14, 2009     1 year  
Total $ 7.3              

34


As of December 31, 2008, certain of our plant and machinery with an aggregate net book value of approximately $5,817,601 were pledged to secure the bank loans.

On October 10, 2008, we completed a private placement of our common shares to certain investors for approximately $8.58 million in gross proceeds, resulting in approximately $6.84 million in net proceeds after payment of approximately $1.74 million in offering expenses.

We did not repay any bank loan in the three months ended December 31, 2008. Subsequently, we repaid the $2.9 million loan due on February 10, 2009 and have approximately $4.4 million in outstanding bank loans that will mature in the next 12 months. We believe that we maintain good relationships with the banks we deal with. We believe that our cash on hand, cash flow from operations, together with the net proceeds from the private offering referenced above and anticipated additional cash resources will meet our expected capital expenditure and working capital for the next 12 months. In addition, we may, in the future, require additional cash resources due to changed business conditions, implementation of our strategy to expand our production capacity or other investments or acquisitions we may decide to pursue. If our own financial resources are insufficient to satisfy our capital requirements, we may seek to sell additional equity or debt securities or obtain additional credit facilities. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, could limit our ability to expand our business operations and could harm our overall business prospects.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are those we believe are most important to portraying our financial conditions and results of operations and also require the greatest amount of subjective or complex judgments by management. Judgments and uncertainties regarding the application of these policies may result in materially different amounts being reported under various conditions or using different assumptions. There have been no material changes to the critical accounting policies previously disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2008.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements:

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

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

35


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

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

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

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

In May 2008, FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards No. 163, Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60 . Diversity exists in practice in accounting for financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises under FASB Statement No. 60, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises. That diversity results in inconsistencies in the recognition and measurement of claim liabilities because of differing views about when a loss has been incurred under FASB Statement No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies.

36


This Statement requires that an insurance enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default (insured event) when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. This Statement also clarifies how Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts, including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium revenue and claim liabilities. Those clarifications will increase comparability in financial reporting of financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises. This Statement requires expanded disclosures about financial guarantee insurance contracts. The accounting and disclosure requirements of the Statement will improve the quality of information provided to users of financial statements. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect there to be any significant impact of adopting SFAS 163 on its financial position, cash flows and results of operations.

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

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Seasonality

As is typical in the fruit processing industry, we experience seasonality in our business. Except for the beverage production line which operates on a year round basis, our fruit processing lines mainly operate from mid-July to mid-November of each year because our the source fruits used in our operations are typically harvested during that period and must be immediately processed. In fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, net sales during the second and third fiscal quarters accounted for approximately 69.3% of our total sales revenue. As a result of seasonality, our personnel, working capital requirements, cash flow and inventories vary substantially throughout the year.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable.

ITEMS 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined by regulations of the SEC, means controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit to the SEC under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit to the SEC under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions to be made regarding required disclosure. Each of Jinglin Shi, Chief Executive Officer, and Colman Cheng, our Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the design and operating effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2008. Based upon their evaluation, these executive officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of December 31, 2008.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There has been no change to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Management decided to exclude recently acquired Fezdale and its subsidiaries from its evaluation of controls and procedures above because it was not possible to conduct an assessment of the acquired companies’ controls and procedures in the period between the consummation date and the date of management’s assessment.

PART II

OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

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