and nature of operations
|
Asia
Time
Corporation (the “Company”), formerly SRKP 9, Inc., was incorporated in the
State of Delaware on January 3, 2006. Effective January 23, 2007, the Company
changed its name from SRKP 9, Inc. to Asia Time Corporation.
Recapitalization
The
Company entered into an Exchange Agreement dated December 15, 2006 (the
“Exchange Agreement”) with Times Manufacture & E-Commerce Corporation
Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation (“Times Manufacture”), and Kwong
Kai Shun, the sole shareholder of Times Manufacture (“Original Shareholder”).
The closing of the Exchange Agreement occurred on January 23, 2007.
The
Company effected a 1.371188519-for-one stock reverse split in the course of
the
share exchange process such that there were 3,702,209 shares of common stock
outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Exchange Agreement. These
financial statements give retroactive effect to this share split.
At
the
closing of the Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired all of the capital
shares of Times Manufacture from the Original Shareholder, in exchange for
which
the Company issued 19,454,420 shares of its Common Stock to the Original
Shareholder. The 19,454,420 shares of common stock issued to the Original
Shareholder in conjunction with this transaction have been presented as
outstanding for all periods presented.
The
Original Shareholder of Times Manufacture acquired 84% of the Company’s issued
and outstanding common stock in conjunction with the completion of the Exchange
Agreement. Therefore, although Times Manufacture became the Company’s
wholly-owned subsidiary, the transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization
in the form of a reverse merger of Times Manufacture, whereby Times Manufacture
was deemed to be the accounting acquirer and was deemed to have retroactively
adopted the capital structure of SRKP 9, Inc. Since the transaction was
accounted for as a reverse merger, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements reflect the historical consolidated financial statements of Times
Manufacture for all periods presented, and do not include the historical
financial statements of SRKP 9, Inc. All costs associated with the reverse
merger transaction were expensed as incurred.
The
Company agreed to register the 1,999,192 shares of common stock that were held
by certain of the Company’s shareholders immediately prior to the closing of the
Exchange Agreement. If the Company fails to register 1,999,192 shares due to
failure on the part of the Company, additional shares of its common stock shall
be issued to the respective shareholders in the amount of 0.0333% of their
respective shares for each calendar day until the registration becomes
effective. There is no maximum potential consideration to be transferred in
connection with the registration of these shares. The Company agreed to file
a
registration statement no later than the tenth day after the end of the six
month period that immediately follows the filing date of the initial
registration statement (the "Required Filing Date"). The Company agreed to
use
reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective
within 120 days after the Required Filing Date or the actual filing date,
whichever is earlier, or 150 days after the Required Filing Date or the actual
filing date, whichever is earlier, if the registration statement is subject
to a
full review by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In addition, the
Company agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to maintain the registration
statement effective for a period of 24 months at the Company's
expense.

Restructuring
For
the
purpose of the reverse takeover transaction (“RTO”), the companies comprising
the group underwent a restructuring in December 2005 (the “Restructuring”), and
the Company acquired all of the outstanding and issued shares of common stock
of
its subsidiaries (including Times Manufacturing & E-Commerce Corporation
Limited (“TMEHK”), Billion Win International Enterprise Limited (“BW”), Citibond
Industrial Limited (“CI”), Goldcome Industrial Limited (“GI”) and Megamooch

consideration for the issuance of 20,000 shares with a designated value of
$1.00
of the company’s voting common stock, representing 99.99% of the voting power in
the company.
Before
acquisition of TME HK group, TME HK acquired all of the outstanding and issued
shares of common stock of its subsidiaries (including BW, CI, GI and MI) from
their then existing stockholders in consideration for the issuance of 10,000
shares with a designated value of $1.00 of TME HK’s voting common

Summary
of significant accounting
policies
|
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).
Principle
of Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Asia Time Corporation
and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use
of
estimates
The
preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles requires management of the Group to
make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts
of
assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts
of
revenues and expenses during the period. Significant items subject to such
estimates and assumptions include the recoverability of the carrying amount
of
property and equipment, intangible assets; the collectibility of accounts
receivable; the realizability of deferred tax assets; the realizability of
inventories; and amounts recorded for contingencies. These estimates are often
based on complex judgments and assumptions that management believes to be
reasonable but are inherently uncertain and unpredictable. Actual results may
differ from those estimates.
Concentrations
of credit risk
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Group to significant concentrations
of
credit risk consist principally of accounts receivable. The Group extends credit
based on an evaluation of the customer’s financial condition, generally without
requiring collateral or other security. In order to minimize the credit risk,
the management of the Group has delegated a team responsibility for
determination of credit limits, credit approvals and other monitoring procedures
to ensure that follow-up action is taken to recover overdue debts. Further,
the
Group reviews the recoverable amount of each individual trade debt at each
balance sheet date to ensure that adequate impairment losses are made for
irrecoverable amounts. In this regard, the directors of the Group consider
that
the Group’s credit risk is significantly reduced.
Restricted
cash
Certain
cash balances are held as security for short-term bank borrowings and are
classified as restricted cash in the Company’s balance sheets.

Summary
of significant accounting policies
(continued)
|
Accounts
receivable
Accounts
receivable are stated at original amount less an allowance made for doubtful
receivables, if any, based on a review of all outstanding amounts at the year
end. An allowance is also made when there is objective evidence that the Group
will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms
of
the receivables. Bad debts are written off when identified. The Group extends
unsecured credit to customers in the normal course of business and believes
all
accounts receivable in excess of the allowances for doubtful receivables to
be
fully collectible. The Group does not accrue interest on trade accounts
receivable.
The
Group
has a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on
an
ongoing basis credit evaluations are preferred on all customers requiring credit
over a certain amount.
During
the reporting period, the Group did not experience any bad debts and,
accordingly, did not make any allowance for doubtful debts.
Inventories
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a first-in,
first-out basis and includes only purchase costs. There are no significant
freight charges, inspection costs and warehousing costs incurred for any of
the
periods presented. In assessing the ultimate realization of inventories,
management makes judgments as to future demand requirements compared to current
or committed inventory levels. The Company has vendor arrangements on the
purchase of watch movements providing for price reduction paid in the form
of
additional watch movements. The percentage of additional movements to be
received by the Company from these vendors is estimated and inventory costs
are
reduced to reflect the effect of these additional movements on the actual cost
of the items in inventory. During the reporting period, the Company did not
make
any allowance for slow-moving or defective inventories.
Leasehold
lands
Leasehold
lands, representing upfront payment for land use rights, are capitalized at
their acquisition cost and amortized using the straight-line method over the
lease terms.

Non-derivative
financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that
the company has the positive ability and intention to hold to maturity are
classified as held-to-maturity securities. Held-to-maturity securities are
initially recognized in the balance sheet at fair value plus transaction costs.
Subsequently, they are stated in the balance sheet at amortized cost using
the
effective interest method less any identified impairment losses.
Investments
are recognized / derecognized on the date the Company commits to purchase/sell
the investments or they expire.

Summary
of significant accounting policies
(continued)
|
Property
and equipment
(continued)
Property
and equipment, and intangible assets subject to amortization are reviewed for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets
to
be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset
to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the
asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash
flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying
amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed
of are separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower
of
the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer
depreciated.
Revenue
recognition
Sales
of
goods represent the invoiced value of goods, net of sales returns, trade
discounts and allowances.
The
Company recognizes revenue when the goods are delivered and the customer takes
ownership and assumes risk of loss, collection of the relevant receivable is
probable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, and the sales price
is
fixed or determinable. The Company provides pre and post sales service to its
customers related to inventory management information in order to facilitate
and
manage sales to customers. By providing such services to keep track of
customers’ inventory levels, the Company can manage and replenish inventory
levels on a timely basis. The Company’s integration, design and development and
management services provide customers with watch design assistance, components
outsourcing or other project support, and are generally completed prior to
a
sale and do not continue post-delivery. There is no requirement that these
services be provided for a sale to take place, nor is there any objective or
reliable evidence of a separate fair value, or if no longer offered or ceased
to
be offered would a right of return be created for the goods sold. The Company
believes these services are part of the sales process and are not a customer
deliverable, and are therefore charged to selling expense or cost of sales,
as
appropriate.
Advertising
and promotion expenses
Advertising
and promotion expenses are charged to expense as incurred.
Advertising
and promotion expenses amounted to $Nil during each of the three month periods
ended March 31, 2008 and 2007.

Income
taxes
Income
taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. 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 and operating
loss and tax credit carry forwards. 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. 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.
In
June
2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48,
Accounting
for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an interpretation of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109
(“FIN
48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This
interpretation requires that an entity recognizes in the consolidated financial
statements the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than
not of being sustained upon examination, based on the technical merits of the
position. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have any impact on the Group’s results
of operations or financial condition for the three-month period ended March
31,
2008. As of the date of the adoption of FIN 48, the Group has no material
unrecognized tax benefit which would favorably affect the effective income
tax
rate in future periods. The Group has elected to classify interest and penalties
related to unrecognized tax benefits, if and when required, as part of income
tax expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
Comprehensive
income
Other
comprehensive income refers to revenues, expenses, gains and losses that under
U.S. GAAP are included in comprehensive income but are excluded from net income
as these amounts are recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity. The
Company’s other comprehensive income represented foreign currency translation
adjustments.
Foreign
currency translation
The
functional currency of the Group is Hong Kong dollars (“HK$”). The Group
maintains its financial statements in the functional currency. Monetary assets
and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency
are
translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at
the
balance sheet dates. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the
functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchanges
rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Exchange gains or losses
arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination
of
net income for the respective periods.

Foreign

For
financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the Group which are

exchange rates and stockholders’ equity is translated at historical exchange
rates. Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining
net
income but are included in foreign exchange adjustment to other comprehensive
income.

Fair
value of financial instruments
The
carrying values of the Group’s financial instruments, including cash and cash
equivalents, restricted cash, trade and other receivables, deposits, trade
and
other payables approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity
of
such instruments. The carrying amounts of borrowings approximate their fair
values because the applicable interest rates approximate current market
rates.
Basic
and diluted earnings per share
The
Company computes earnings per share (“EPS’) in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per Share” (“SFAS No. 128”),
and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (“SAB 98”). SFAS No. 128
requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted
EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the income or loss available to common
shareholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for
the
period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect
on
a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities,
options, and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the
periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that
have
an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease
loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.

Interest
rate risk
The
Group
is exposed to interest rate risk arising from short-term variable rate
borrowings from time to time. The Group’s future interest expense will fluctuate

Payment” (“SFAS 123R”), a revision to SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation”. SFAS 123R requires that the Company measure the cost of employee
services received in exchange for equity awards based on the grant date fair
value of the awards, with the cost to be recognized as compensation expense
in
the Company’s financial statements over the vesting period of the awards.
Accordingly, the Company recognizes compensation cost for equity-based
compensation for all new or modified grants issued after December 31, 2005.
The
Company did not have equity awards outstanding at December 31,
2005.
The
Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to
non-employees in accordance with EITF 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments
that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with
Selling, Goods or Services”, and EITF 00-18, “Accounting Recognition for Certain
Transactions involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees”,
whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date
as determined at either (a) the date at which a performance commitment is
reached or (b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity
instruments is complete.
During
the three months ended March 31, 2008 and March 31, 2007, the Company recorded
$700,000 and $1,611,563, respectively, as a charge to operations to recognize
the grant date fair value of stock-based compensation in conjunction with the
Escrow Agreement described at Note 16.

Adoption
of New Accounting Policies
In
September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”), which establishes a
formal framework for measuring fair value under Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (“GAAP”). SFAS No. 157 defines and codifies the many definitions of
fair value included among various other authoritative literature, clarifies
and,
in some instances, expands on the guidance for implementing fair value
measurements, and increases the level of disclosure required for fair value
measurements. Although SFAS No. 157 applies to and amends the provisions of
existing FASB and American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”)
pronouncements, it does not, of itself, require any new fair value measurements,
nor does it establish valuation standards. SFAS No. 157 applies to all other
accounting pronouncements requiring or permitting fair value measurements,
except for: SFAS No. 123R, share-based payment and related pronouncements,
the
practicability exceptions to fair value determinations allowed by various other
authoritative pronouncements, and AICPA Statements of Position 97-2 and 98-9
that deal with software revenue recognition. SFAS No. 157 was effective January
1, 2008.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
Liabilities” (“SFAS No. 159”), which provides companies with an option to report
selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. SFAS No. 159’s
objective is to reduce both complexity in accounting for financial instruments
and the volatility in earnings caused by measuring related assets and
liabilities differently. Generally accepted accounting principles have required
different measurement attributes for different assets and liabilities that
can
create artificial volatility in earnings. SFAS No. 159 helps to mitigate this
type of accounting-induced volatility by enabling companies to report related
assets and liabilities at fair value, which would likely reduce the need for
companies to comply with detailed rules for hedge accounting. SFAS No. 159
also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate
comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes
for
similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 requires companies to
provide additional information that will help investors and other users of
financial statements to more easily understand the effect of the company’s
choice to use fair value on its earnings. SFAS No. 159 also requires companies
to display the fair value of those assets and liabilities for which the company
has chosen to use fair value on the face of the balance sheet. SFAS No. 159
does
not eliminate disclosure requirements included in other accounting standards,
including requirements for disclosures about fair value measurements included
in
SFAS No. 157 and SFAS No. 107. SFAS No. 159 was effective January 1,
2008.

Recent
accounting pronouncements
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations”
(“SFAS 141(R)”), which requires an acquirer to measure the identifiable
assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in
the
acquiree at their fair values on the acquisition date, with goodwill being
the
excess value over the net identifiable assets acquired. SFAS 141(R) is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company does not
anticipate that the adoption of the above standards will have a material impact
on it current or future consolidated financial statements
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements” (“SFAS 160”), which clarifies that a
noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary should be reported as equity in the
consolidated financial statements. The calculation of earnings per share will
continue to be based on income amounts attributable to the parent. SFAS 160
is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company does not
anticipate that the adoption of the above standards will have a material impact
on it current or future consolidated financial statements
In
March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS No.
161”). SFAS No. 161 amends and expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS No.
133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No.
133”). The objective of SFAS No. 161 is to provide users of financial statements
with an enhanced understanding of how and why an entity uses derivative
instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted
for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations, and how derivative
instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position,
financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 requires qualitative
disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative
disclosures about fair value amounts of and gains and losses on derivative
instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features
in
derivative agreements. SFAS No. 161 applies to all derivative financial
instruments, including bifurcated derivative instruments (and nonderivative
instruments that are designed and qualify as hedging instruments pursuant to
paragraphs 37 and 42 of SFAS No. 133) and related hedged items accounted for
under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations. SFAS No. 161 also amends
certain provisions of SFAS No. 131. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November
15, 2008, with early application encouraged. SFAS No. 161 encourages, but does
not require, comparative disclosures for earlier periods at initial adoption.
The Company has not yet determined the effect on its consolidated financial
statements, if any, upon adoption of SFAS No. 161.

Convertible
Bonds and Bond Warrants

On
November 13, 2007, the Company completed a financing transaction with ABN AMRO
Bank N.V. (the “Subscriber ”) issuing (i) $8,000,000 Variable Rate Convertible
Bonds due in 2012 (the “Bonds”) and (ii) warrants to purchase an aggregate of
600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to adjustments for stock
splits or reorganizations as net forth in the warrant, that expire in 2010
(the
“Warrants“).
The
Bonds
were subscribed at a price equal to 97% of their principal amount, which is
the
issue price of 100% less a 3% commission to the Subscriber. The Bonds were
issued pursuant to, and are subject to the terms and conditions of, a trust
deed
dated November 13, 2007, as amended, between the Company and The Bank of New
York, London Branch (the “Trust Deed”). The Bonds are also subject to a paying
and conversion agency agreement dated November 13, 2007 between the Company,
The
Bank of New York, and The Bank of New York, London Branch. The terms and
conditions of the Bonds, as set forth in the Trust Deed include, among other
thing, the following terms:

Interest Rate.
The
Bonds bear cash interest from November 13, 2007 at the rate of 6% per annum
for
the first year after November 13, 2007 and 3% per annum thereafter, of the
principal amount of the Bonds.
-
Conversion
.
Each
Bond is convertible at the option of the holder at any time on a date that
is
365 days after the date that the Company’s securities are traded on the American
Stock Exchange (“AMEX”) through March 28, 2012, into shares of the Company’s
common stock at an initial conversion price equal to the price per share at
which shares are sold in the Company’s proposed initial public offering of
common stock on the American Stock Exchange (“AMEX”) with minimum gross proceeds
of $2,000,000. If no initial public offering occurs prior to conversion, the
conversion price per share will be $2.00, subject to adjustment in accordance
with the terms and conditions of the Bonds. The conversion price was adjusted
to
$3.5 based on the Company’s initial public offering completed in February 2008.
The conversion price is subject to adjustment in certain events, including
the
Company’s issuance of additional shares of common stock or rights to purchase
common stock at a per share or per share exercise or conversion price,
respectively, at less than the applicable per share conversion price of the
Bonds. If for the period of 20 consecutive trading days immediately prior to
April 12, 2009 or February 18, 2012, the conversion price for the Bonds is
higher than the average closing price for the shares, then the conversion price
will be reset to such average closing price; provided that, the conversion
price
will not be reset lower than 70% of the then existing conversion price. In
addition, the Trust Deed provides that the conversion price of the Bonds cannot
be adjusted to lower than $0.25 per share of common stock (as adjusted for
stock
splits, stock dividends, spin-offs, rights offerings, recapitalizations and
similar events).
-
Mandatory
Redemptions
.
If
either (i) the Company’s common stock (including the shares of common stock
issuable upon conversion of the Bonds and exercise of the Bond Warrants) are
not
listed on AMEX on or before August 13, 2008 or (ii) the Company breaches certain
of its obligations to timely register the Bonds, Bond Warrants and underlying
shares pursuant to the registration rights agreement dated November 13, 2007
entered into by and between the Subscriber and the Company, then holders of
the
Bonds can require the Company to redeem the Bonds at 104.53% of the principal
amount of the Bonds at any time after November 13, 2008. In addition, at any
time after November 13, 2010, holders of the Bonds can require the Company
to
redeem the Bonds at 126.51% of the principal amount. The Company is required
to
redeem any outstanding Bonds at 150.87% of its principal amount on November
13,
2012.
On
November 13, 2007, the Company entered into a warrant instrument with the
Subscriber pursuant to which the Subscriber purchased the Warrants from the
Company (the “Warrants Instrument”). The Warrants, which are represented by a
global certificate, are also subject to a warrant agency agreement by and among
the Company, The Bank of New York and The Bank of New York, London Branch dated
November 13, 2007 (the “Warrant Agency Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms and
conditions of the Warrant Instrument and the Warrant Agency Agreement, the
Warrants vested on November 13, 2007 and will terminate on November 13, 2010.

On
November 13, 2007 the Company also entered into a registration rights agreement
with the Subscriber pursuant to which the Company agreed to include the Bonds,
the Warrants, and the shares of common stock underlying the Bonds and Warrants
in a pre-effective amendment to registration statement that the Company have
on
file with the SEC. Subsequently, the Company verbally agreed with the Subscriber
not to include the Subscriber’s securities in this registration statement and to
register them in a separate registration statement to be filed promptly after
the effective date of this registration statement.
At
November 13, 2007, the date of issuance, the Company determined the fair value
of the Bonds to be $7,760,000. The warrants and the beneficial conversion
feature were $1,652,701 and $6,107,299, respectively, which were determined
under the Black-Scholes valuation method. They are included under stockholders’
equity as additional paid in capital-stock warrants and additional paid in
capital-beneficial conversion feature respectively in accordance with guidance
of APB 14 and EITF No. 98-5.Accordingly, the interest discount on the warrants
and beneficial conversion feature were recorded, and are being amortized by
the
interest method of 5 years. The Beneficial Conversion Feature was calculated
using a $2 conversion price. The conversion rate effective with the Company’s
initial public offering in February 2008 increased to $3.5. This change in
the
conversion rate will result in a reduction of the Beneficial Conversion Feature
by approximately $4 million dollars and will result in a reduction in additional
paid in capital and increase the bonds payable. The overall result in a
reduction in bond discounts.
As
addressed in an earlier paragraph under Mandatory Redemptions, the Company
will
redeem each bond at 150.87% of its principal amount on November 13, 2012 (the
maturity date). On the basis of this commitment, the Company has determined
the
total redemption premium to be $4,069,600, which is an addition to the original
face value of the Bonds of $8,000,000. This redemption premium is to be
amortized to interest expense over the term of the Bonds by the interest method.
Interest expense on the accretion of redemption premium for the period from
November 13, 2007 to March 31, 2008 amounted to $627,630 as disclosed in the
following schedule of Convertible Bonds Payable.

In
connection with the Private Placement, in January and February 2007, Kwong
Kai
Shun, the Company's Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, entered into an agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”) with the
investors in the Private Placement pursuant to which Mr. Kwong agreed to
place
2,326,000 shares of his common stock in escrow for possible distribution
to the
investors (the "Escrow Shares"). Pursuant to the Escrow Agreement, if the
Company's net income for 2006 or 2007 (subject to specified adjustments)
as set
forth in its filings with the SEC is less than $6,300,000 or $7,700,000,
respectively, a portion, if not all, of the Escrow Shares will be transferred
to
the investors based upon the Company's actual net income, if any, for such
fiscal years. In addition, Mr. Kwong has agreed to purchase all of the shares
of
Series A Preferred Stock then held by such investors at a per share purchase
price of $1.29 if the Company's common stock fails to be listed or quoted
for
trading on the American Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Nasdaq
Global Market or the New York Stock Exchange on or before June 30, 2007,
which
has been subsequently extended to March 31, 2008. The number of shares that
Mr.
Kwong will distribute to shareholders will be determined by the number of
shares
of common stock that have not been sold by the investors, multiplied by the
shortfall in a valuation agreed upon by the parties. The agreed upon shortfall
in valuation is calculated using the $1.29 purchase price per share of the
common stock, the actual amount of net income for either 2006 or 2007 (subject
to specified adjustments) and a price earnings ratio set at 5 for 2006 and
4 for
2007. In no circumstances will Mr. Kwong be required to distribute in excess
of
2,326,000 shares. In the event that Mr. Kwong transfers any shares to investors,
it is anticipated that the transfer will be effected under an exemption from
registration pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended.
The
Company has accounted for the Escrow Shares as the equivalent of a
performance-based compensatory stock plan between the Company and Mr. Kwong.
Accordingly, the Company determined the fair value of the stock-based
compensation related to the Escrow Shares by employing a binomial tree model,
which is commonly used to value performance-based equity compensation packages.
The valuation model used a volatility factor of 57%, a risk-free interest rate
of 5.7%, and weekly steps to incorporate various possible scenarios for net
income and common stock price. The probability at each quarter-end represents
the probability of achieving the annual 2006 and 2007 net income targets
specified in the Escrow Agreement. This quarterly probability is a time-weighted
average of the implicit probabilities of achieving each net income target.
The
probabilities are calculated using multi-period scenario analyses through a
backward induction tree, which generated an aggregate fair value for the Escrow
Shares of $2,433,650. The inputs to the valuation mode were based on actual
quarterly net income and estimates made by the Company that the required annual
net income would be equaled or exceeded.
As
the
performance conditions under this compensatory stock plan relate to the
attainment of specific defined net income milestones for both 2006 and 2007,
the
Company has determined that the appropriate period over which to recognize
the
charge to operations for the aggregate fair value of this compensatory stock
plan of $2,433,650 is the 11-month period from February 2007 through December
2007, which is the period of vesting (which is equivalent to the period of
benefit), since this is the period in which the Escrow Shares are subject to
the
Escrow Agreement.
The
Company met the 2006 and 2007 net income requirement of $6,300,000 and
$7,700,000, respectively, and the Escrow Shares had fully returned to Mr. Kwong
on April 1, 2008.

If
the
Company pays a stock dividend on the shares of common stock, subdivide
outstanding shares of common stock into a larger number of shares, combine,
through a reverse stock split, outstanding shares of the common stock into
a
smaller number of shares or issues, in the event of a reclassification of shares
of the common stock, any shares of capital stock, then the conversion price
of
the Series A Preferred Stock will be adjusted as follows: the conversion price
will be multiplied by a fraction, of which (i) the numerator will be the number
of shares of common stock outstanding immediately before one of the events
described above and (ii) the denominator will be the number of shares of common
stock outstanding immediately after such event.
Holder
of

a
vote before the Company’s holders of common stock.
In
the
event of any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, the holders
of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to receive in
preference to the holders of common stock an amount per share of $1.29 plus
any
accrued but unpaid dividends. If the Company’s assets are insufficient to pay
the above amounts in full, then all of the Company’s assets will be ratably
distributed among the holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock in
accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares
if
all amounts payable were paid in full.
There
are
no additional specific dividend rights or redemption rights of holders of the
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
If
the
Company redeems or acquired any shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock are converted, those shares will resume the status of authorized but
unissued shares of preferred stock and will no longer be designated as Series
A
Convertible Preferred Stock.
As
long

Company cannot alter or adversely change the powers, preference or rights given
to the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock holders, without the affirmative
vote of those holders.

with a ceiling of HK$20,000. The participants are entitled to 100% of the
Group’s contributions together with accrued returns irrespective of their length
of service with the Group, but the benefits are required by law to be preserved

SFAS
No. 131,
Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information
,
establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments in
financial statements. Operating segments are defined as components of an
enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is
evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making
group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing
performance.
For
management purposes, the Group is currently organized into two major principal
activities – trading of watch movements (components) and trading of completed
watches. These principal activities are the basis on which the Group reports
its
primary segment information.

ITEM
2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATION
The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated
financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this quarterly
report. This report contains forward-looking statements. The words
“anticipated,” “believe,” “expect, “plan,” “intend,” “seek,” “estimate,”
“project,” “could,” “may,” and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. These statements include, among others, information
regarding future operations, future capital expenditures, and future net cash
flow. Such statements reflect our management’s current views with respect to
future events and financial performance and involve risks and uncertainties,
including, without limitation, general economic and business conditions, changes
in foreign, political, social, and economic conditions, regulatory initiatives
and compliance with governmental regulations, the ability to achieve further
market penetration and additional customers, and various other matters, many
of
which are beyond our control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties
occur, or should underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results
may vary materially and adversely from those anticipated, believed, estimated
or
otherwise indicated. Consequently, all of the forward-looking statements made
in
this quarterly report are qualified by these cautionary statements and there
can
be no assurance of the actual results or developments.
Overview
We
are a
distributor of watch movements components used in the manufacture and assembly
of watches to a wide variety of timepiece manufacturers. There are two
categories of watch movements, quartz and mechanical. The main parts of an
analog quartz watch movement are the battery; the oscillator, a piece of quartz
that vibrates in response to the electric current; the integrated circuit,
which
divides the oscillations into seconds; the stepping motor, which drives the
gear
train; and the gear train itself, which makes the watch’s hands move. A digital
watch movement has the same timing components as an analog quartz movement
but
has no stepping motor or gear train. To a lesser extent we also distribute
complete analog-quartz and automatic watches with pricing between $20.00 to
$50.00. Manufacturing for these watches is currently outsourced to third party
factories in China.
Our
core
customer base consists primarily of large wholesalers, online retailers and
small and medium-sized watch manufacturers that produce watches primarily for
sale to customers in Hong Kong and China. To a lesser extent, we design watches
for manufacturers and exporters of watches and manufacture and distribute
complete watches primarily to online retailers and internet
marketers.
We
are
mainly engaged in watch movement distribution business in Hong Kong and China
which accounted for approximately 89% of our revenue for the year ended December
31, 2007. We have distribution centers and strategically located sales offices
throughout Hong Kong and the People’s Republic of China (“China” or “PRC”). We
distribute more than 350 products from over 30 vendors, including such market
leaders as Citizen Group, Seiko Corporation and Ronda AG, to a base of over
350
customers primarily through our direct sales force. As a part and included
in
our sale of watch movements, we provide a variety of value-added services,
including automated inventory management services, integration, design and
development, management, and support services.
Recent
Events
February
2008 Public Offering
On
February 15, 2008, we completed an initial public offering consisting of 963,700
shares of our common stock. Our sale of common stock, which was sold indirectly
by us to the public at a price of $3.50 per share, resulted in net proceeds
of
approximately $2.7 million. These proceeds were net of underwriting discounts
and commissions, fees for legal and auditing services, and other offering costs.
Upon the closing of the initial public offering, we sold to the underwriter
warrants to purchase up to 83,800 shares of our common stock. The warrants
are
exercisable at a per share price of $4.20 and have a term of five
years.
January
2008 Investor Relations Agreement
On
January 16, 2008, we entered into a consulting agreement with Public Equity
Group Inc. Pursuant to the agreement, Public Equity Group will provide us with
business consulting and investor relation services, oversee of all of our
investor public relation and related service providers, and monitor our investor
relation meetings with brokerage firms and brokers to develop support for our
stock and research coverage, in addition to strategic advice and other customary
investor relation services. The agreement has a term of one year, unless
terminated earlier with 60-days prior written notice. As consideration for
entering in the agreement and compensation for Public Equity Group’s services
under the agreement, we agreed to issue 200,000 shares of our common stock
to
Public Equity Group Inc. In connection with the issuance of 200,000 shares
of
common stock, we recognized a one-time charge to operations in the first quarter
of 2008 in an amount equal to approximately $700,000, which is derived from
valuing each share at $3.50, which is the offering price for our February 2008
public offering.
Corporate
Structure
We
were
incorporated in the State of Delaware on January 3, 2006. We were originally
organized as a “blank check” shell company to investigate and acquire a target
company or business seeking the perceived advantages of being a publicly held
corporation. On January 23, 2007, we closed a share exchange transaction (“Share
Exchange”) pursuant to which we (i) issued 19,454,420 shares of our common stock
to acquire 100% equity ownership of Times Manufacture & E-Commerce
Corporation Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation (“Times Manufacture”),
which has eight wholly-owned subsidiaries, (ii) assumed the operations of Times
Manufacture and its subsidiaries, and (iii) changed our name from SRKP 9, Inc.
to Asia Time Corporation. Times Manufacture also paid an aggregate of $350,000
to the stockholders of SRKP 9, Inc. Times Manufacture was founded in January
2002 and is based in Hong Kong.
In
2005,
we re-aligned the structure and business functions of our subsidiaries to
clearly define the scopes our business objectives in order to strengthen our
ability to effectively conduct our business operations. Billion Win
International Enterprise Limited, or Billion Win, is our central sourcing
component. Billion Win, which is held indirectly through Times Manufacture,
procures and imports watch movements and distributes them to suppliers, volume
users in China, and two of our subsidiaries, Goldcome Industrial Limited, or
Goldcome, and Citibond Industrial Limited, or Citibond. Goldcome mainly focuses
it distributions to wholesalers and large manufacturers and Citibond focuses
on
distributions to small to medium size manufacturers. Megamooch International
Limited is a complete watch distributor and exporter targeting overseas buyers.
Another two subsidiaries, TME Enterprise Ltd. and Citibond Design Ltd., are
responsible for complete watch design for manufacturers and exporters and
handles large volume watch movement transactions between buyers and sellers
solely on a commission basis. Megamooch Online Ltd. operations are focused
on
complete watch marketing and distribution, with manufacturing being outsourced,
and it concentrates on overseas markets.
Watch
Movement Segment
Presently,
Hong Kong does not generally have watch movement manufacturing. Watch movements
are largely imported from Japan and Switzerland. The revenue for the watch
movement segment of our business for the three months ended March 31, 2008
was
$31.3 million, with a gross profit of $4.0 million, a 63.0% and 73.8% growth,
respectively, compared to $19.2 million revenue and $2.3 million gross profit
for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The gross profit margin increased
from 12.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2007 to 12.8% for the three
months ended March 31, 2008, primarily due to more diversified products being
promoted to customers and higher selling prices, which primarily resulted of
extended credit terms to our customers. We provide a wide product spectrum
of
products carrying major brands as well as middle-low end China movements. We
believe carrying a wide product spectrum enables us to provide a convenient
one-stop provider for our customers, which may result in higher sales per
customer. We began to target small to medium manufacturers in mid-2005 and
our
customer base has expanded to more than 350 watch manufacturers. In addition,
we
have extended our credit period from an average of 30 days to 60 days to major
customers that have maintained a history of timely settlement of receivables.
We
believe that this extension lead to an increase of purchase orders from those
customers. We review the credit status of each customer and periodically adjust
the credit period to specific customers in an attempt to maximize business
with
each customer without suffering significant credit risk.
Complete
Watch Segment
Revenue
of our complete watch segment was $5.5 million for the three months ended March
31, 2008, a 190.2% increase compared to the same period in 2007, in which
revenue was $1.9 million. This segment contributed approximately 14.9% of our
revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2008, as compared to 9.0% of
revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The increase was primarily
contributed to an increase in sales of high-end mechanical watches. Our main
market positioning in China is on the middle-class adult, daily, sporty and
classy design.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
Financial
Reporting Release No. 60 recommends that all companies include a discussion
of
critical accounting policies used in the preparation of their financial
statements. The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) defines critical
accounting policies as those that are, in management's view, most important
to
the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and those
that require significant judgments and estimates.
The
preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires our management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenues and expenses, as well as the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements. We base our
estimates on historical experience, actuarial valuations and various other
factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results
of
which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets
and
liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Some of those
judgments can be subjective and complex and, consequently, actual results may
differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. While
for
any given estimate or assumption made by our management there may be other
estimates or assumptions that are reasonable, we believe that, given the current
facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any such other reasonable
estimate or assumption would materially impact the financial statements. The
accounting principles we utilized in preparing our consolidated financial
statements conform in all material respects to generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States of America.
Impairment
of long-lived assets
The
long-lived assets held and used by us are reviewed for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets
may not be recoverable. It is reasonably possible that these assets could become
impaired as a result of technology or other industry changes. Determination
of
recoverability of assets to be held and used is by comparing the carrying amount
of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the
assets.
If
such
assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is
measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the
fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower
of
the carrying amount of fair value less costs to sell.
Inventories
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a first-in,
first-out basis and includes only purchase costs. There are no significant
freight charges, inspection costs and warehousing costs incurred for any of
the
periods presented. In assessing the ultimate realization of inventories,
management makes judgments as to future demand requirements compared to current
or committed inventory levels. We have vendor arrangements on the purchase
of
watch movements providing for price reduction paid in the form of additional
watch movements. The percentage of additional movements to be received by us
from these vendors is estimated and inventory costs are reduced to reflect
the
effect of these additional movements on the actual cost of the items in
inventory. During the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, we did not
make any allowance for slow-moving or defective inventories.
We
evaluate our inventories for excess, obsolescence or other factors rendering
inventories as unsellable at normal gross profit margins. Write-downs are
recorded so that inventories reflect the approximate market value and take
into
account our contractual provisions with our suppliers governing price
protections and stock rotations. Due to the large number of transactions and
complexity of managing the process around price protections and stock rotations,
estimates are made regarding the valuation of inventory at market
value.
In
addition, assumptions about future demand, market conditions and decisions
to
discontinue certain product lines can impact the decision to write-down
inventories. If assumptions about future demand change and/or actual market
conditions are different than those projected by management, additional
write-downs of inventories may be required. In any case, actual results may
be
different than those estimated.
Trade
receivables
Trade
and
other receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently
measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less provision
for impairment. A provision for impairment of trade and other receivables is
established when there is objective evidence that we will not be able to collect
all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. The amount
of
the provision is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the
present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective
interest rate. The amount of the provision is recognized in the income
statement.
Foreign
currency translation
Our
consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars. Our
functional currency is the Hong Kong Dollar (HKD). Our consolidated financial
statements are translated into United States dollars from HKD at period-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.
Revenue
recognition
Sales
of
goods represent the invoiced value of goods, net of sales returns, trade
discounts and allowances. We recognize revenue when the goods are delivered
and
the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, collection of the
relevant receivable is probable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
and the sales price is fixed or determinable. We provide pre- and post- sales
service to our customers related to inventory management information in order
to
facilitate and manage sales to customers. Our integration, design and
development and management services provide customers with watch design
assistance, components outsourcing or other project support, and are generally
completed prior to a sale and do not continue post-delivery. There is no
requirement that these services be provided for a sale to take place, nor is
there any objective or reliable evidence of a separate fair value, or if no
longer offered or ceased to be offered would a right of return be created for
the goods sold. We believe these services are part of the sales process and
are
not a customer deliverable, and are therefore charged to selling expense or
cost
of sales, as appropriate.
Deferred
income tax
Deferred
income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary
differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their
carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, if the
deferred income tax arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability
in
a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the
transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss, it is not
accounted for. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws)
that
have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are
expected to apply when the related deferred income tax assets is realized or
the
deferred income tax liability is settled.
Stock-based
compensation
Effective
January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment”
(“SFAS 123R”), a revision to SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation”. SFAS 123R requires that we measure the cost of employee services
received in exchange for equity awards based on the grant date fair value of
the
awards, with the cost to be recognized as compensation expense in our financial
statements over the vesting period of the awards. Accordingly, we recognize
compensation cost for equity-based compensation for all new or modified grants
issued after December 31, 2005. We account for stock option and warrant grants
issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with EITF 96-18, “Accounting
for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring,
or
in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services”, and EITF 00-18, “Accounting
Recognition for Certain Transactions involving Equity Instruments Granted to
Other Than Employees”, whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon
the measurement date as determined at either (a) the date at which a performance
commitment is reached or (b) at the date at which the necessary performance
to
earn the equity instruments is complete.
During
the three months ended March 31, 2007, we recorded $1,611,563 as a charge to
operations to recognize the grant date fair value of stock-based compensation
in
conjunction with the Escrow Agreement, as described below. During the three
months ended March 31, 2008, we did not record any charge to operations to
recognize the grant date fair value of stock-based compensation in conjunction
with the Escrow Agreement.

Comparison
of the three months ended March 31, 2008 with the three months ended March
31,
2007
Net
sales
for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $36.8 million as compared to
$21.1
million for the comparable period in 2007, an increase of $15.7 million, or
74.4%. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the sales of both
completed watches and watch movements. Net sales of movements was $31.3 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2008, accounting for approximately 85.1%
of
our total sales for the period, an increase of 63.0% as compared to $19.2
million for the comparable period in 2007. The increase was primarily
attributable to an increase in volume of movements from 21.3 million pieces
to
27.3 million pieces in the comparable three-month period in 2007 and 2008,
respectively. The increase in the volume of movements was primarily due to
an
increase in sales of high-end movements. Sales of completed watches for the
three months ended March 31, 2008, was $5.5 million as compared to $1.9 million
for the comparable period in 2007, an increase of 190.2%. The increase was
due
to a significant increase in sales of high-end mechanical watches partial offset
by a decrease in low-end items. The total volume decreased from 0.2 million
pieces to 0.1 million pieces, or 54.1%, in the comparable periods in 2007 and
2008, respectively. The increase in sales of high-end mechanical watches and
decrease in low-end items was a result of our strategic focus of our business
on
the high-end items which have a higher growth potential. Management believes
the
profit margin of mechanical watches is on the rise while quartz watches will
further decline in 2008 and 2009. The profit margin of mechanical and quartz
watches was approximately 41% and 20%, respectively, for the three months ended
March 31, 2008.
Cost
of
sales for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $31.1 million, or 84.6%
of
net sales, as compared to $17.9 million, or 84.8% of net sales, for the same
period in 2007. The cost of sales as a percentage of net sales was relatively
equal as there was little change in the factors affecting the cost.
Gross
profit for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $5.7 million, or 15.4%
of
net sales, compared to $3.2 million, or 15.2% of net sales for the same period
in 2007. The increase in our gross profit was primarily attributable to an
increase in sales of high-end products as a result of business re-alignment
and
improved economies of scale. The gross profit margin of watch movements slightly
increased from 12.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2007 as compared
to
12.8% of net sales for the same period in 2008. Gross profit margins are usually
a factor of product mix and demand for product. The gross profit margin for
completed watches for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was 30.5% as
compared to 48.4% for the comparable period in 2007. The decrease in profit
margin was primarily due to the decrease in profit margin of low-end items
as we
were making clearance sales to move away from our low-end watches to focus
our
sales efforts on high-end items in accordance to our long-term
strategy.
Other
income from operations was $25,663, or 0.1% of net sales, for the three months
ended March 31, 2008, as compared to $48,497, or 0.2% of net sales, for the
three months ended March 31, 2007. The decrease was due to a decrease in income
received from the license fees of intangible assets, which was $9,882 for the
three months ended March 31, 2008, as compared to $32,716 for the same period
in
2007, as we had disposed of some websites in 2007.
Administrative
and other operating expenses were $1.6 million, or 4.3% of net sales, for the
three months ended March 31, 2008, as compared to $2.0 million, or 9.7% of
net
sales, for the comparable period in 2007. The decrease was primarily due to
a
one-time recognition of $1,611,563 of stock-based compensation during the three
months ended March 31, 2007 related to the Escrow Shares provided by our CEO,
Kwong Kai Shun, pursuant to the Private Placement agreement entered into with
our investors, and there is no such expense in the same period in 2008,
partially offset by a recognition of stock-based business consulting fee of
$700,000 valued at $3.50, the offering price in our public offering. There
was
an increase in professional fees related to reporting requirements as a public
company and additional employees and upgraded staff benefits in the comparable
period in 2007. Management considers these expenses as a percentage of net
sales
to be a key performance indicator in managing our business.
Other
income from non-operating activities was $46,852, or 0.1% of net sales, for
the
three months ended March 31, 2008, as compared to $29,929, or 0.1% of net sales,
for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The increase was primarily due to
an
increase in bank interest income, which was $46,852 for the three months ended
March 31, 2008, as compared to $29,002 for the same period in 2007.
Interest
expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $601,634, or 1.6% of
net
sales, as compared to $239,429, or 1.1% of net sales, in 2007. The increase
was
primarily due to the interest and amortization on bonds of $282,169 in three
months ended March 31, 2008.
Income
taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2008 were $811,646, or 2.2% of net
sales, as compared to $402,667, or 1.9% of net sales for the three months ended
March 31, 2007. There were no significant changes in taxation rates and deferred
taxation during the comparable period.
Net
income for the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $2.4 million, or 6.7%
of
net sales, as compared to a loss of $192,540, or (0.9%) of net sales for the
comparable period in 2007.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
Other
than the Escrow Agreement and Escrow Shares, as described in the notes to the
financial statements, we do not have any off-balance sheet debt, nor do we
have
any transactions, arrangements or relationships with any special purpose
entities.
Contractual
Obligations
Other
than those commitments and obligations being entered into in the normal course
of business, we do not have any additional, material capital commitments and
obligations due to other parties.
Inflation
and Seasonality
Inflation
and seasonality have not had a significant impact on our operations during
the
last two fiscal years.
New
Accounting Pronouncements
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurement” (“SFAS
157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair
value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier
application is encouraged, provided that the reporting entity has not yet issued
financial statements for that fiscal year, including any financial statements
for an interim period within that fiscal year. The provisions of this statement
should be applied prospectively as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which
this statement is initially applied, except in some circumstances where the
statement shall be applied retrospectively. We are currently evaluating the
effect, if any, of SFAS 157 on our financial statements. Management currently
does not believe the adoption of SFAS 157 will have a material impact on our
consolidated financial statements.
On
February 15, 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an Amendment of SFAS No.
115” (“SFAS 159”). The fair value option established by SFAS 159 permits all
entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election
dates. A business entity will report unrealized gains and losses on items for
which the fair value option has been elected in earnings (or another performance
indicator if the business entity does not report earnings) at each subsequent
reporting date. The fair value option: (a) may be applied instrument by
instrument, with a few exceptions, such as investments otherwise accounted
for
by the equity method; (b) is irrevocable (unless a new election date occurs);
and (c) is applied only to entire instruments and not to portions of
instruments. SFAS 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first
fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted
as
of the beginning of the previous fiscal year provided that the entity makes
that
choice in the first 120 days of that fiscal year and also elects to apply the
provisions of SFAS 157. We have not chosen to early adopt this statement.
Management currently does not believe the adoption of SFAS 159 will have a
material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS
141(R)”), which requires an acquirer to measure the identifiable assets
acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the
acquiree at their fair values on the acquisition date, with goodwill being
the
excess value over the net identifiable assets acquired. SFAS 141(R) is effective
for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2008. Early adoption is prohibited. We do not anticipate that the adoption
of
the above standards will have a material impact on our current or future
consolidated financial statements.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements” (“SFAS 160”), which clarifies that a
noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary should be reported as equity in the
consolidated financial statements. The calculation of earnings per share will
continue to be based on income amounts attributable to the parent. SFAS 160
is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company does not anticipate
that the adoption of the above standards will have a material impact on it
current or future consolidated financial statements.
In
March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities – an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS No.
161”). SFAS No. 161 amends and expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS No.
133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No.
133”). The objective of SFAS No. 161 is to provide users of financial statements
with an enhanced understanding of how and why an entity uses derivative
instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted
for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations, and how derivative
instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position,
financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 requires qualitative
disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative
disclosures about fair value amounts of and gains and losses on derivative
instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features
in
derivative agreements. SFAS No. 161 applies to all derivative financial
instruments, including bifurcated derivative instruments (and nonderivative
instruments that are designed and qualify as hedging instruments pursuant to
paragraphs 37 and 42 of SFAS No. 133) and related hedged items accounted for
under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations. SFAS No. 161 also amends
certain provisions of SFAS No. 131. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November
15, 2008, with early application encouraged. SFAS No. 161 encourages, but does
not require, comparative disclosures for earlier periods at initial adoption.
The Company has not yet determined the effect on its consolidated financial
statements, if any, upon adoption of SFAS No. 161.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
To
provide liquidity and flexibility in funding our operations, we borrow amounts
under bank facilities and other external sources of financing. As of March
31,
2008 we had general banking facilities amounted to $20.9 million for overdraft,
letter of credit, trust receipt, invoice financing and export loans granted
by
nine banks. The amount increased by $5.7 million compared to $15.2 million
as at
March 31, 2007. Interest on the facilities ranged from minus 2.0 to 0.75% over
the Bank’s Best Lending Rate of Hong Kong (Prime Rate) or Hong Kong Inter Bank
Offered Rate (HIBOR). These banking facilities were secured by the leasehold
properties, time deposits and held-to maturity investments of the group and
personal guarantees executed by our Chairman of the Board.
On
February 15, 2008, we completed an initial public offering consisting of 963,700
shares of our common stock. Our sale of common stock, which was sold indirectly
by us to the public at a price of $3.50 per share, resulted in net proceeds
of
approximately $2.7 million. These proceeds were net of underwriting discounts
and commissions, fees for legal and auditing services, and other offering costs.
Upon the closing of the initial public offering, we sold to the underwriter
warrants to purchase up to 83,800 shares of our common stock. The warrants
are
exercisable at a per share price of $4.20 and will expire if unexercised after
five years from the date of issuance.
On
November 13, 2007, we completed a financing transaction pursuant to which we
issued $8,000,000 Variable Rate Convertible Bonds that will be due in 2012.
The
Bonds were subscribed at a price equal to 97% of their principal amount, which
is the issue price of 100% less a 3% commission to the Subscriber of the Bonds.
The Bonds bear cash interest at the rate of 6% per annum for the first year
after November 13, 2007 and 3% per annum thereafter, of the principal amount
of
the Bonds. Each Bond is convertible at the option of the holder at any time
on
and after a date that is 365 days after February 12, 2008, which is the date
that our shares of common stock commence trading on the AMEX, at an initial
conversion price of $3.50. The conversion price is subject to adjustment in
certain events, including our issuance of additional shares of common stock
or
rights to purchase common stock at a per share or per share exercise or
conversion price, respectively, at less than the applicable per share conversion
price of the Bonds. If for the period of 20 consecutive trading days immediately
prior to November 13, 2009 or September 29, 2012, the conversion price for
the
Bonds is higher than the average closing price for the shares, then the
conversion price will be reset to such average closing price; provided that,
the
conversion price will not be reset lower than 70% of the then existing
conversion price. In connection with the issuance of the Bonds, we also issued
to the Subscriber warrants to purchase 600,000 shares of our common stock.
The
warrants were subscribed at a price of $0.0001 per warrant, are exercisable
at
$0.0001 per share, and terminate on November 13, 2010.
On
January 23, 2007, concurrently with the close of the Share Exchange, we
conducted an initial closing of a private placement transaction pursuant to
which we sold an aggregate of 1,749,028 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock at $1.29 per share. On February 9, 2007, we conducted a second and final
closing of the private placement pursuant to which we sold 501,320 shares of
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock at $1.29 per share. Accordingly, a total
of
2,250,348 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock were sold in the
private placement for an aggregate gross proceeds of $2,902,946 (the “Private
Placement”). After commissions and expenses, we received net proceeds of
approximately $2.3 million in the Private Placement.
For
the
three months ended March 31, 2008, net cash used by operating activities was
approximately $5.5 million, as compared to net cash used by operating activities
of $2.1 million for the comparable period in 2007. The increase in net cash
used
by operating activities was primarily attributable to an increase in accounts
receivable of $8.1 million, an increase in prepaid expenses and other
receivables of $1.2 million and a decrease in account payable of $1.1 million,
partially offset by an increase in net income of $2.4 million. The increase
in
accounts receivable was due to increased sales. The increase in prepaid expenses
and other receivables was attributable to an increase in rebate receivables
of
$1.1 million. The decrease in account payable is primarily due to the increased
purchases of mechanical watches which have a shorter payment terms.
Net
cash
used in investing activities was $2.8 million for the three months ended March
31, 2008, compared to $64 in the comparable period in 2007. The increase in
net
cash used was primarily due to the increase in expenditures for acquiring
equipments and moldings for mechanical watches during the three months ended
March 31, 2008.
Net
cash
provided by financing activities was $3.4 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2008 and $2.0 million for the comparable period in 2007. The increase
in net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March
31, 2008 was primarily attributable to the proceeds from insurance of common
stocks in the IPO of 2.7 million and an increase in net advancement of other
bank borrowings of $1.2 million, partially offset by a repayment of short term
bank loans of $616,799 and a decrease in restricted cash of
$302,990.
For
the
three months ended March 31, 2008 and the same period in 2007, our average
inventory turnover was approximately 36 days and 18 days or 2.6 times and 5.0
times, respectively. The inventory level in the three months ended March 31,
2007 was kept at a low level and it was maintained normal in the same period
in
2008. The average days outstanding of our accounts receivable for the three
months ended March 31, 2008 was 46 days, as compared to 48 days for the same
period in 2007 which remained almost the same. Inventory turnover and average
days outstanding are key operating measures that management relies on to monitor
our business.
In
an
attempt to reduce our reliance on third-party watch movement manufacturers,
we
have plans to manufacture our own brands of quartz movements and mechanical
movements in-house. To manufacture our own brands of quartz and mechanical
movements in-house, we would need to acquire watch movement facilities in China
and invest in new equipment and research and development. We expect that up
to
$5.5 million will be required to obtain the equipment and facilities to
manufacture branded proprietary watch movements. Our plan to acquire
manufacturing facilities and equipment to manufacture our own brand of quartz
and mechanical movements in-house is still underway and we have identified
certain targets for negotiations and will disclose in due course. We also have
plans to expand our operation and sales force in China in 2008. Currently,
we
are looking for opportunities to establish our retail network in China through
teaming up with fashion, apparel or accessories chain stores in China to market
our completed watches in China. We may be required to raise the appropriate
amount of capital needed for our future operations from future equity sales
or
through debt financings. Failure to obtain funding when needed may force us
to
delay, reduce, or eliminate our plans to manufacture our own watch movement
parts. We may not be able to obtain additional financial resources when
necessary or on terms favorable to us, if at all, and any available additional
financing may not be adequate. Moreover, new equity securities issued in
financings, including any shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock or
any
new series of preferred stock authorized by our Board of Directors, may have
greater rights, preferences or privileges than our existing common stock. To
the
extent stock is issued or options and warrants are exercised, holders of our
common stock will experience further dilution.
Based
on
our current plans, we believe that cash on hand, cash flow from operations
and
funds available under our bank facilities will be sufficient to fund our
operation for the next 12 months. However, our ability to maintain sufficient
liquidity depends partially on our ability to achieve anticipated levels of
revenue, while continuing to control costs. If we did not have sufficient
available cash, we would have to seek additional debt or equity financing
through other external sources, which may not be available on acceptable terms,
or at all. Failure to maintain financing arrangements on acceptable terms would
have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition.
ITEM
3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET
RISK
Credit
Risk.
We
are
exposed to credit risk from our cash at bank, fixed deposits and contract
receivables. The credit risk on cash at bank and fixed deposits is limited
because the counterparts are recognized financial institutions. Contract
receivables are subject to credit evaluations. As we are getting more new
customers and offering credit terms, financial efficiency, we believe that
cash
flow and controlling bad debt and late payment become more and more important.
We carry out thorough research through public filing records available on our
new customers, coupled with the employment of business intelligence information
provider, before extending any credit to new customers. Different levels of
credit periods and credit limits are granted to different customers according
to
their size, financial position, business position and payment history, among
other factors, in order to offer the right credit terms to our customers to
enhance competitiveness yet manage the risk. We have not recorded bad debt
since
inception.
Foreign
Currency Risk.
The
functional currency of our company is the Hong Kong Dollar (HKD). In the future,
we expect Renminbi (RMB) also to be a functional currency. Substantially all
of
our operations are conducted in the PRC. Our sales and purchases are conducted
within the PRC in HKD and in the future will include RMB. Conversion of RMB
into
foreign currencies is regulated by the People’s Bank of China through a unified
floating exchange rate system. Although the PRC government has stated its
intention to support the value of the RMB, there can be no assurance that such
exchange rate will not again become volatile or that the RMB will not devalue
significantly against the U.S. Dollar. Exchange rate fluctuations may adversely
affect the value, in U.S. Dollar terms, of our net assets and income derived
from its operations in the PRC. In addition, the RMB is not freely convertible
into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place
through authorized institutions.
Country
Risk.
The
substantial portion of our business, assets and operations are located and
conducted in Hong Kong and China. While these economies have experienced
significant growth in the past twenty years, growth has been uneven, both
geographically and among various sectors of the economy. The Chinese government
has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the
allocation of resources. Some of these measures benefit the overall economy
of
Hong Kong and China, but may also have a negative effect on us. For example,
our
operating results and financial condition may be adversely affected by
government control over capital investments or changes in tax regulations
applicable to us. If there are any changes in any policies by the Chinese
government and our business is negatively affected as a result, then our
financial results, including our ability to generate revenues and profits,
will
also be negatively affected.
ITEM
4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure
controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed
to
ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that
we
file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange
Commission'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 under the Exchange
Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal
executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
As
of the
end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation,
under
the
supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (CEO)
and
our Chief Financial Officer (CFO),
of our
disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule
15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based upon this evaluation, our CEO and CFO
concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures had significant
deficiencies that caused our controls and procedures to be ineffective. These
deficiencies consisted of inadequate staffing and supervision that could lead
to
the untimely identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters
and failure to perform timely and effective reviews. In addition, there are
deficiencies in the recording and classification of accounting transactions
and
a lack of personnel with expertise in US generally accepted accounting
principles and US Securities and Exchange Commission rules and
regulations.
We
are in
the process of improving our controls and procedures in an effort to remediate
these deficiencies through improving supervision, education, and training of
our
accounting staff. We have hired two third-party financial consultants to review
and analyze our financial statements and assist us improve our reporting of
financial information. Our management and Board of Directors, with assistance
from outside financial consultants, conducted a review and analysis of our
accounting treatment for (i) our inventory by adjusting watch movement costing
for the effects of vendor incentives from an as received basis to an accrual
basis, (ii) the share exchange transaction that we conducted in January 2007,
(iii) stock-based compensation related to an escrow agreement that our CEO
and
CFO entered into with investors in our January 2007 private placement. Based
on
the review, we concluded that we misapplied accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America and we restated our financial
statements for the periods over the past two years.
Management
intends to seek additional qualified in house accounting personnel and
third-party accounting personnel to ensure that management will have adequate
resources in order to attain complete reporting of financial information
disclosures in a timely matter. In April 2008, we hired our CFO, which we expect
to improve our controls and procedures. We believe that the remedial steps
that
we take will address the conditions identified by our CEO and CFO as significant
deficiencies in our disclosure controls and procedures. Additional effort is
needed to fully remedy these deficiencies and we are continuing our efforts
to
improve and strengthen our control processes and procedures. We also intend
to
engage outside consultants to assist us in assessing and improving our internal
controls and procedures. We believe that the remedial steps that we take will
address the conditions identified by our CEO and CFO as significant deficiencies
in our disclosure controls and procedures. We will continue to monitor the
effectiveness of these new internal policies. Our CEO and CFO believe that
there
are no material inaccuracies, or omissions of material facts necessary to make
the statements not misleading in light of the circumstances in which they were
made, in this Form 10-Q.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Based
on
the evaluation of our management as required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15
or
15d-15 of the Exchange Act, and other than as stated above, there were no
changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
the first quarter of 2008 that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.

UNREGISTERED
SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
On
February 15, 2008, we completed our initial public offering of common stock
in
which we sold 963,700 shares of common stock (including 125,700 shares sold
pursuant to the underwriter’s full exercise of their over-allotment option) at
an issue price of $3.50 per share. The SEC declared the registration statement
for the initial public offering, File No. 333-140692 and 333-149176, each
effective on February 12, 2008. The managing underwriter for the offering was
WestPark Capital, Inc. We raised a total of approximately $3.4 million in gross
proceeds from our initial public offering, or approximately $2.7 million in
net
proceeds after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately
$0.3 million and other offering costs of approximately $0.4 million. At March
31, 2008, we have used all $2.7 million of such proceeds to finance our existing
operations, which include the acquisition of equipments and moldings for
manufacturing of mechanical watches.
