For accounting purposes, the Transaction was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization.

Pursuant to an entrusted management agreement (the “Entrusted Management Agreement”) among Yazhong Liao (“Mr. Liao”), Zhangmei Zhang (“Ms. Zhang”), Huiwen Qu (“Mr. Qu”) (collectively, the “Wuxi KJF Shareholders”), and Nanjing KJF, agreed to entrust the business operations and management of Wuxi KJF to Nanjing KJF until Nanjing KJF acquires all of the assets or equity of Wuxi KJF (as more fully described under “Exclusive Option Agreement” below). Pursuant to the Entrusted Management Agreement, Nanjing KJF manages all of Wuxi KJF’s operations, and controls all of Wuxi KJF’s cash flow and assets through entrusted or designated bank accounts, and Nanjing KJF assumes all the operation risks and bears all losses of Wuxi KJF, including paying all Wuxi KJF’s debts to the extent Wuxi KJF is not able to pay such debts.

The option is exercisable at any time but only to the extent that such purchase does not violate any PRC law then in effect. The exercise price will be the minimum price permitted under then applicable PRC law. Only the Nanjing KJF has the power to terminate the Exclusive Option Agreement.

Pursuant to the technology service agreement between Wuxi KJF and Nanjing KJF (the “Exclusive Technology Service Agreement”), Wuxi KJF engaged Nanjing KJF as the sole technology service provider relating to, among other things, consultation of product marketing, investment management, global marketing, enterprise management and certain other business services required by Wuxi KJF. Pursuant to the Exclusive Technology Service Agreement, Wuxi KJF agreed to pay a service fee to Nanjing KJF based on certain factors set forth in the agreement, and Wuxi KJF agreed not to engage any third party for any of its technology services provided under the agreement.

We do not have an equity interest in Wuxi KJF. However, as a result of these contractual arrangements, we are considered the primary economic beneficiary of Wuxi KJF and we treat it as a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) under the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. Accordingly, we will consolidate the financial statements of Wuxi KJF in our consolidated financial statements from January 17, 2014.

Advances from Investors
We have been receiving advances from individual investors since the inception of our business. We have entered into partnership co-investment agreements with 401 individual investors, according to which we have committed to co-invest and establish new clubs and expand business in the cities of Wuxi, Nanjing, Jintan, Nantong, Yixing, Changzhou, Jiangyin, and Shanghai. While the clubs in Wuxi and Nanjing have been established, we are in the process of establishing and opening another six clubs in six cities. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, advances from investors of clubs to be established amounted to $3,743,333 and $3,626,795, respectively.

As of September 30, 2013, we have received advances of RMB1,060,000 (approximately $170,000) from 36 individual investors for the Jintan Club. Since we had agreement with these individual investors afterwards that direct or indirect shares of the Company will be issued to the individual shareholders instead of ownership in Jintan Club, Wuxi KJF was registered as 100% owner of Jintan Club by its inception, and we kept to record advance from the 36 individual investors as liability until the consummation of the reverse recapitalization.

However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving these goals.
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Overview
We manage and operate healthcare clubs specialized in providing Chinese traditional physiotherapy services and other relaxing treatments in China. As of the date of this current report, we manage and operate three healthcare clubs located in Wuxi, Nanjing (temporarily closed in December 31, 2013 and is expected to re-open by the end of June 2014) and Jintan. We differentiate ourselves from other Chinese healthcare clubs based on our traditional style, cultural background, and services.
Our main services include foot massage, body massage, spa, moxibustion, and other relaxing treatments, all of which are based on the Chinese traditional reflexology system. In China, reflexology is widely believed to offer healthcare and therapeutic benefits, based on ancient Chinese medical theories involving body energy system pathways and blockages that can develop, which can be reflected in other parts of the body as malady or discomfort. Western views on foot massage and massage in general are varied, with skeptics and several studies claiming little or no real therapeutic benefit. There is, however, a nearly universal agreement that foot and body massages are relaxing and rejuvenating.
In addition to its healthcare or rejuvenation benefits, foot massage, body massage, and other relaxing activities has emerged in China as a social activities. Friends and families enjoy conversing and enjoying television, beverages and simple foods while having foot massages or other similar activities. In addition, business people often use massage clubs for conversing and socializing with customers and fostering key relationships. We believe the social aspect of massage clubs has been one of the major drivers for the industry growth in recent years.
We provide four major services in our clubs, including traditional Chinese-style foot massage, the “Royal Steam” spa, “Royal” body massage, and “Royal” moxibustion. Originated from ancient and traditional Chinese medical treatments since the Ming & Tsing Dynasties, we believe all the treatments we provide to customers are derived from the archives in the Palace Museum in China.

Industry Overview
According to the Chinese health practice known as reflexology, each point on the sole of the body corresponds (or “reflects”) to an internal organ, and applied therapy to these spots can have a healing effect on the corresponding organ. The belief is that the nerve ending in the sole of the body is connected with internal organs of the body via invisible energy pathways, sometimes called meridians. Therapist applies varying amounts of high pressure to certain spots of the body, over a time period typically ranging from 45-120 minutes. While foot massage and other massage treatments are widely believed in China to have therapeutic benefit, often it is purchased as a leisure and/or social service, where groups of friends or business acquaintances may gather to enjoy a foot massage while socializing and having tea and simple food.
Most healthcare clubs in China offer Chinese and Thai style foot/full body massages. In Chinese full body massage, the therapists can use arms, hands, fingers, elbows and knees to apply pressure to different parts of the body. According to Chinese beliefs, foot and body massages are seen as a moderate but valid therapy to treat illnesses and body discomfort. Thai full body massage has been widely adopted into Chinese culture and is offered at many massage spas throughout China. In Thai massage, therapists manipulate body parts by stretching them and applying gentle pressure. Thai massage is intended to be energizing and to stretch muscles and help retain or enhance flexibility.
Massage clubs can be found in most Chinese cities and towns, as well as in moderate and upper class hotels, in airports and in shopping malls. Despite massage clubs having become a mainstream service in the PRC, we are aware of no national associations or agencies that have collected national data on the massage club industry. We believe that national massage club data is scarce in large part because the business has traditionally been done on a small operator basis, with the typical owner having one store. Despite the lack of national industry data, we believe that it is common knowledge that massage and other relaxing physiotherapy treatments have become a mainstream service that is offered widely throughout the country.
While massage and other relaxing physiotherapy treatments have become commonplace all over the PRC, the industry in the PRC is highly fragmented, with many spas being individually owned and operated. For example, Wuxi, where the Company is located, with a population of 6 million and we believe that it has more than 1,000 massage spas or regimen clubs, many of which are individually owned and operated.
According to a September 8, 2008 article in the New York Times, there was an estimated 50,000-60,000 massage therapists in Beijing. In 2009, the Health and Recreation Specialty Council of the China Health Care Association reported that there were over 600,000 leisure and health enterprises in the PRC, and about three million companies producing related products, with combined annual revenues exceeding 200 billion RMB (US$26.5 billion). This category is wider than just massage parlors or spas and includes many other health and leisure companies.
Our Services
Our healthcare clubs feature Chinese traditional physiotherapy services, including foot massage and other relaxing treatments. The main services in our clubs are based on ancient Chinese traditional medical royal regimen since the Ming and Tsing Dynasties, including foot massage, body massage, and other physiotherapy treatments. We also receive revenues from providing beverages including beer, tea, and juice, and simple foods including fruits, nuts, and dumplings. A majority of our revenue come from foot massage and other relaxing treatments, which are our core services. We consider other services and products as high-margin, add-on items. We train and provide financial incentives to our local managers and massage therapists to promote these items.
We believe that our therapists are consistent with the principals of traditional Chinese Medicine.
We seek to serve mainstream Chinese in urban centers, with a quality service at affordable prices. Our typical retail price for a 90-minute foot massage is RMB168 (USD27.1). Prices of other services are from RMB258 (USD41.6) to RMB888 (USD143.2). We customize special services for our clients based on their own conditions. Customer may apply our VIP card to obtain discount.
The following are the four major services we currently provide to our customers.
Traditional Chinese-style Foot Massage
While enjoying ordinary foot massages given by professional therapists, customers put their feet in a special steam barrel bathed by a variety of traditional Chinese medicinal materials. The barrel, made by blue and white porcelain, contains vapor generator that will vaporize the medicinal materials and stimulate customers’ foot acupoints. It is believed that this process is originated from royal hospitals from the Tsing Dynasty.
| 7 |
“Royal Steam” Spa
The “Royal Steam” spa is a unique spa that customers lie on a special steam bed with small intensive holes. The bed containing Lan Tian jade will vaporize traditional Chinese medicinal materials and stimulate customers’ body acupoint. It is believed that this process is originated from royal hospitals from the Tsing Dynasty.
“Royal” Body Massage
The “Royal” body massage is a kind of massage that therapists use a combination of pushing, pressing, pinching, and kneading techniques to treat customers with hands. Different treatments are used for different parts of a body. This massage can help promote blood circulation, increase body metabolism and eliminate fatigue. It is a traditional widespread health preservation method in China with a long history.
“Royal” Moxibustion
Professional therapists put a pottery jar with mugwort on acupoints of customer’s body, permeating the medicine into the body meridian points by heat. It is believed that this therapy helps dredging the meridians, relieving rheumatism and will keep the body’s youth. Our “Royal” moxibustion was improved from the traditional moxibustion therapy by enhancing the effectiveness.
Competitive Strengths
We believe the following are our main competitive strengths:
Strong Background in Program and Culture, Unique Consumption Experience
We believe that the core competences of this industry are moving to environment, services, features of therapy and culture background. The cultural element of our services will provide us with a unique advantage as compared to our competitors.
Quality Service at Affordable Prices
We are building a brand known for quality and consistency while being affordable to mainstream Chinese living in urban centers. We provide value to our customers by pricing our services at competitively acceptable market prices, while assuring consistency and quality across our chain.

Business Strategies
Expanding Health Care Clubs under the brand “Kangjiafu”
For expending market presence, we plan to gradually establish health clubs under our brand “Kangjiafu”, many of which are expected to be opened in 2014. We believe that the “Kangjiafu” brand as well as our Chinese traditional physiotherapy services will differentiate our clubs from other similar health clubs, spas, and foot massage stores.
Standardized, High-Quality Services with Competitive Price
We provide our customers with high-quality treatments by professionally trained therapists while offering competitive prices, as compared to our competitors in the region. We price range of our services is from RMB168 to RMB888, which we believe is within a reasonable range.

Enhance and Widen Customer Loyalty Program
We plan to enhance our customer loyalty program. We currently offer VIP Card which offer prepaid customers various discounts and other benefits. We have a card acceptance system in every single club allowing our customers to use their VIP card in all spas.
Enhance our IT and Club Management System
We plan to increase the functionality, tracking and reporting capability of our club management and accounting systems. Our current systems are focused on preventing leakage and assuring full cash collection.

Club Size and Location
The size of our Wuxi and Nanjing clubs are 1,011 and 1,828 square meters, and can accommodate approximately 73 and 97 people at the same time, respectively. Our clubs are leased, and we expect to open and operate our new clubs in locations that are unique and we evaluate these locations on a case-by-case basis. We expect a new club leasehold be a minimum of 1500 square meters. We favor locations that feature stable, positive economic conditions and larger populations. For smaller cities we plan to pay special attention to economic output and the level of competition. We expect to place our clubs in prominent city centers and highly trafficked areas such as central business districts, and shopping centers.
Sales and Marketing
Due to the nature of the business, our marketing activities are focusing on the local areas. Individual club managers are responsible for club promotions. This can include publishing of flyers and local newspaper as well as street sign advertising. We also market to businesses. We offer special packages to companies who frequently use massage as way to entertain their clients. Many companies in China have an entertainment budget to entertain customers, and foot and body massages are used to build or deepen business-customer relationships. We plan to actively promote our services corporate clients. As we grow, we plan to increase our marketing efforts on a larger scale. We plan to purchase TV and national magazine advertisements to help promote our brand on a national level.
Customer Loyalty Programs
We currently only offer VIP Card. Our VIP Card is a prepaid massage card that provides customers priority services such as allowing them to book a massage room during peak hours and participate in card member only promotions. Customers that prepay certain amounts, start from RMB2,000 to RMB100,000, can receive a VIP Card. The VIP Card entitles customers to up to 10%-20% discount as well as preferred customer services, such as preferred reservation times or the ability to reserve a particular massage therapist, as well as certain rewards at holidays. When our customers purchase one of our cards, we record the customer’s name, age, gender, and business background.
We plan to collect more customer information and build a customer information database. We believe this information will allow us to better serve our customers.
Pricing
We determine the prices of our services based on a variety of factors such as customer purchasing power, economic conditions and prices of competitors’ services. Our customers purchase our services with cash, debit card or credit card. A majority of our sales are made with cash. We target mainstream Chinese in urban centers through quality services at affordable prices.

RISK FACTORS
Risks Related to Our Business and Industry
Our limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate our future business prospects and to make decisions based on our historical performance.
We have a limited operating history, which makes it difficult to evaluate our business on the basis of historical operations. As a consequence, it is difficult to forecast our future results based upon our historical data. Reliance on our historical results may not be representative of the results we will achieve. Because of the uncertainties related to our lack of historical operations, we may be hindered in our ability to anticipate and timely adapt to increases or decreases in sales, product costs or expenses. If we make poor budgetary decisions as a result of unreliable historical data, we could incur greater losses, which may result in a decline in our stock price.
For our operating entities in PRC, from the inception to December 31, 2013, we have incurred accumulated net loss in the amount of approximately USD 5.47 million and may continue to incur losses in the future.
From our PRC operating entities’ inception to December 31, 2013 we have incurred accumulated net loss in the amount of approximately USD 5.47 million, including net losses in the amount of USD3,092,587 and USD2,593,198 in 2013 and 2012, respectively, primarily due to at the early stage of development of our business.
Our operating results have been in the past and will continue to be subject to a number of factors, many of which are largely outside our control. Any one or more of the factors set forth below could adversely impact our business, financial condition, and/or results of operations:
| 10 |
(i) Lower customer traffic or average value per transaction, which negatively impacts comparable club sales, net revenues, operating income, operating margins and earnings per share, due to:
| • | the impact of initiatives by competitors and increased competition generally; | |
| • | customers trading down to lower priced services within our spas, and/or shifting to competitors with lower priced services; |
| • | lack of customer acceptance of new services or price increases necessary to cover costs of new services and/or higher input costs; | |
| • | the attractiveness of the venues to consumers and competition from comparable venues in terms of, among other things, accessibility and cost; |
| • | declines in general consumer demand for specialty services; |
(ii) Cost increases that are either wholly or partially beyond our control, such as:
| • | labor costs such as general market wage levels; | |
| • | litigation against us; |
| • | construction costs associated with new club openings; or | |
| • | information technology costs and other logistical resources necessary to maintain and support the growth of our business. |
Therefore, due to the factors mentioned above as well as our historical losses, although we expect our net loss to decrease as a percentage of our total net revenues in the foreseeable future, we may continue to incur net losses in the future. We may also continue to incur net losses in the future due to changes in the macroeconomic and regulatory environment, competitive dynamics and our inability to respond to these changes in a timely and effective manner.
Our operating results may fluctuate, which makes our results difficult to predict and could cause our results to fall short of expectations.
Our operating results may fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, many outside of our control. As a result, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful, and you should not rely on our past results as an indication of our future performance. Our quarterly, year-to-date and annual expenses as a percentage of our revenues may differ significantly from our historical or projected rates. Our operating results in future quarters may fall below expectations. Any of these events could cause our stock price to fall. Each of the risk factors listed in Risk Factors and the following factors may affect our operating results:
| • | Our ability to continue to attract customers to our clubs; | |
| • | Our ability to generate revenue from our members and customers for the services and products we offer; |
| • | The amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures related to the maintenance and expansion of our businesses, operations and infrastructure; and | |
| • | Our focus on long-term goals over short-term results. |
Because our business is changing and evolving, our historical operating results may not be useful to you in predicting our future operating results.
| 11 |
We may not be successful in implementing important strategic initiatives, which may have a material adverse impact on our business and financial results.
There is no assurance that we will be able to implement important strategic initiatives in accordance with our expectations, which may result in a material adverse impact on our business and financial results. These strategic initiatives are designed to drive long-term shareholder value and improve our company’s results of operations.
Economic conditions in the PRC market could adversely affect our business and financial results.
As a leisure service provider that is dependent upon discretionary consumer spending, the results of our operations are sensitive to changes in macro-economic conditions. Our customers may have less money for discretionary purchases as a result of job losses, foreclosures, bankruptcies, reduced access to credit and falling home prices. Any resulting decreases in customer traffic or average value per transaction will negatively impact our financial performance as reduced revenues result in sales de-leveraging, which creates downward pressure on margins. There is also a risk that if negative economic conditions persist for a long period of time, consumers may make long-lasting changes to their discretionary purchasing behavior, including less frequent discretionary purchases on a more permanent basis.
Liability for Service-related injuries and other potential claims could adversely affect us.
The nature and use of services and the products we use to provide our services could give rise to liability for service-related injuries and other claims if a customer were injured while receiving one of our services (including those performed by students at our schools) or were to suffer adverse reactions following the service. Adverse reactions could be caused by various factors beyond our control, including hypoallergenic sensitivity with the products we use. Although service-related injuries lawsuits in the PRC are rare, and we have not, to date, incurred litigation expense involving service-related injuries, there is no guarantee that we will not face such liability in the future. As we do not carry insurance to help cover the costs of any such litigation or any judgments against us, such liability could be substantial and the occurrence of such loss or liability may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and prospects.
Our success depends substantially on the value of our brand.
We believe we have built an excellent reputation for the quality of our massage services, and for delivery of a consistently positive consumer experience. Brand value is based in part on consumer perceptions as to a variety of subjective qualities. Even isolated business incidents that erode consumer trust, particularly if the incidents receive considerable publicity or result in litigation, can significantly reduce brand value. Consumer demand for our services and brand equity could diminish significantly if we fail to preserve the quality of our massage services, or are perceived to act in an unethical or socially irresponsible manner, or fail to deliver a consistently positive consumer experience in each of our markets.
Effectively managing our growth into new geographic areas will be challenging.
Effectively managing growth can be challenging, particularly as we expand into new markets geographically where we must balance the need for flexibility and a degree of autonomy for local management against the need for consistency with the our goals, philosophy and standards. Growth can make it increasingly difficult to locate and hire sufficient numbers of key employees to meet our financial targets, to maintain an effective system of internal controls, and to train employees nationally to deliver a consistently high quality service and customer experience.
We face risks related to maintaining our computer networks .
Our business relies to a significant extent on our computer networks, which control our point-of-sale system, which monitors our sales on a real-time basis. These networks may be vulnerable to service interruptions, delays or failures, including those related to unauthorized access, computer hackers, computer viruses and other security threats. The occurrence of any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, resulting adversely on our operations and financial condition. Any damage or failure that interrupts or delays our operations could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We may face difficulties in protecting our intellectual property.
We have “Kangjiafu” trademarks registered in the PRC by licensing from KJF Biotech, a related party (please refer to the section entitled “Intellectual Property Rights” in this Current Report). Although these intellectual properties are protected through registration, enforcement of measures for the protection of intellectual property rights in the PRC is currently not as certain or effective as compared to some developed countries. We believe our trademarks are critical to our success and that the success of our business depends in part upon our continued ability to use or further develop and increase brand awareness. The infringement of our trademarks would diminish the value of our brand and its market acceptance, as well as our competitive advantages.
| 12 |
Monitoring and preventing the unauthorized use of our intellectual property is difficult. The measures we take to protect our brand, trade names, copyrights and other intellectual property rights may not be adequate to prevent their unauthorized use by third parties. Furthermore, application of laws governing intellectual property rights in the PRC and abroad is uncertain and evolving and could involve substantial risks to us. If we are unable to adequately protect our brand, trademarks and other intellectual property rights, we may lose these rights and our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects could be materially and adversely affected.
We rely on highly skilled personnel and, if we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel or hire qualified personnel, we may not be able to grow effectively.
Our performance largely depends on the talents and efforts of highly skilled individuals, including massage instructors, club managers and massage therapists. Our future success depends on our continuing ability to identify, hire, develop, motivate and retain highly skilled personnel for all areas of our organization. Our continued ability to compete effectively depends on our ability to train new employees, and to retain and motivate our existing employees.
The loss of key executives or difficulties recruiting and retaining qualified executives could jeopardize our ability to meet financial targets.
Our success depends substantially on the contributions and abilities of key executives, consisting of Mr. Yazhong Liao, CEO and President. We must continue to recruit, retain and motivate key executives to maintain our current business and support our projected growth. A loss of a key executive could jeopardize our ability to meet financial targets.
We may need additional capital to execute our business plan and fund operations and may not be able to obtain such capital on acceptable terms or at all.
Capital requirements are difficult to plan in our rapidly changing industry. Although we currently expect to have sufficient funding for the next 12 months, we expect that we will need additional capital to fund our future expansion efforts.
We may be required to pursue sources of additional capital through various means, including debt or equity financings. There is no assurance that we will be successful in locating a suitable financing transaction in a timely fashion or at all.
If we cannot raise additional funds on favorable terms or at all, we may not be able to carry out all or parts of our strategy to maintain our growth and competitiveness or to fund our operations. If the amount of capital we are able to raise from financing activities, together with our revenues from operations, is not sufficient to satisfy our capital needs, even to the extent that we reduce our operations accordingly, we may be required to cease operations.
Our future performance is dependent on the PRC economy and, in particular, the level of growth of the PRC consumer market.
We derive substantial portion of our revenue from sales of our massage services in the PRC. The success of our business depends on the condition and growth of the PRC consumer market, which in turn depends on macro-economic conditions and individual income levels in the PRC. There is no assurance that projected growth rates of the PRC economy and the PRC consumer market will be realized under current economic situation. Any future slowdowns or declines in the PRC economy or consumer spending may adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.
Political, economic and social policies of the PRC government and PRC laws and regulations could affect our business and results of operations and may result in our inability to sustain our growth.
The economy of the PRC differs from the economies of most developed countries in a number of respects, including:
| • | its structure; | |
| • | level of government involvement; |
| 13 |
| • | level of development; | |
| • | level of capital reinvestment; |
| • | control of capital reinvestment; | |
| • | control of foreign exchange; and |
| • | allocation of resources. |
Before its adoption of reform and open-door policies beginning in 1978, China was primarily a planned economy. Since then, the PRC government has been reforming the PRC’s economic system, and has begun reforming the government structure in recent years. These reforms have resulted in significant economic growth and social progress. Although the PRC government still owns a significant portion of the productive assets in the PRC, economic reform policies since the late 1970s have emphasized autonomous enterprises and the utilization of market mechanisms, especially where these policies apply to privately-owned businesses. Although we believe these reforms will have a positive effect on our overall and long-term development, we cannot predict whether changes in the PRC’s political, economic and social conditions, laws, regulations and policies will have an adverse impact on our current or future business, results of operations or financial condition.
Our ability to continue to expand our business is dependent on a number of factors, including general economic, capital market conditions and credit availability from banks or other lenders. In the past few years, the PRC government has articulated a need to control the rate of economic growth and may tighten its monetary policies, including increasing interest rates on bank loans and deposits and tightening the money supply to control growth in lending. Under current economic situation, financial institutions have tightened their lending. Stricter lending policies may, among other things, affect our ability to obtain financing, which may, in turn, adversely affect our growth and financial condition.
As we conduct a significant portion of our business through operating entities in China, we are subject to PRC laws and regulations on labor and employee benefits. In recent years, the PRC government has implemented policies to strengthen the protection of employees and obligate employers to provide more benefits to their employees. In addition, an employment contract law came into effect in China on January 1, 2008. The PRC employment contract law and related legislations require more benefits to be provided to employees, such as an increase in pay or compensation for termination of employment contracts. As a result, we expect to incur higher labor costs, which could have an adverse impact on our current or future business, results of operations or financial condition. Additional changes in the PRC’s political, economic and social conditions, laws, regulations and policies could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
PRC regulations relating to offshore investment activities by PRC residents may increase our administrative burden and restrict our overseas and cross-border investment activity. If our shareholders fail to make any required applications and filings under such regulations, we may be unable to distribute profits and may become subject to liability under PRC laws.
SAFE issued a public notice in October 2005, or Circular 75, requiring PRC residents to register with the local SAFE branch for establishing or controlling any company outside of China for the purpose of capital financing with assets or equities of PRC companies owned by such PRC residents, referred to in the notice as an “offshore special purpose vehicle.” The term “control” under Circular 75 is broadly defined as the operation rights, beneficiary rights or decision-making rights acquired by the PRC residents in the offshore special purpose vehicles or PRC companies by such means as acquisition, trust, proxy, voting rights, repurchase, convertible bonds or other arrangements. SAFE has further issued a series of implementation guidelines. These regulations require PRC residents and PRC corporate entities to register their direct or indirect offshore investment in offshore special purpose vehicles with competent local branches of SAFE. These regulations may apply to our shareholders and beneficial owners who are PRC residents or which have PRC residents as their ultimate owners and may apply to any offshore acquisitions that we make in the future.
| 14 |
Under these foreign exchange regulations, PRC residents who establish or control, or have previously established or controlled prior to October 2005, offshore special purpose vehicles are required to register those investments. In addition, any PRC resident that is a shareholder or beneficial owner of an offshore special purpose vehicle is required to amend the SAFE registration with respect to that offshore special purpose company in connection with any increase or decrease of capital, transfer of shares, merger, division, equity investment or creation of any security interest over any assets located in China or other material changes in share capital. Moreover, any subsidiary of such offshore special purpose company in China is required to urge the PRC resident shareholders and beneficial owners to update their registration with the local branch of SAFE. If any shareholder or beneficial owner who is considered as a PRC resident by SAFE fails to make the required registration or to update the previously filed registration, the subsidiary of such offshore special purpose company in China may be prohibited from distributing its profits or the proceeds from any capital reduction, share transfer or liquidation to the offshore special purpose company, and the offshore special purpose company may also be prohibited from making additional capital contribution into its subsidiary in China.
We have requested all of our current shareholders and/or beneficial owners to disclose whether they or their shareholders or beneficial owners fall within the ambit of Circular 75 and its guidance and will urge relevant shareholders and beneficial owners, upon learning they are PRC residents, to register with the local SAFE branch as required under Circular 75 and its guidance. However, we may not be fully informed of the identities of all our shareholders or beneficial owners who are PRC residents, and as Circular 75 and its related foreign exchange regulations are relatively new and evolving and their interpretation and enforcement involve significant uncertainties, we cannot provide any assurance that all of our shareholders and beneficial owners who are PRC residents have fully complied or will comply with our request to make, obtain or update any applicable registrations or have fully complied or will fully comply with other requirements required by Circular 75 or other related rules in a timely manner. For example, Mr. Liao, one of our founders and a PRC resident, is currently in the process of applying for amendments to his SAFE registration under Circular 75 with respect to recent changes in our share capital. We cannot assure you that Mr. Liao will successfully obtain such SAFE registration in accordance with applicable PRC law.
In case of any non-compliance by any of our shareholders or beneficial owners who are PRC residents, Nanjing KJF and such shareholders and beneficial owners may be subject to fines and other legal sanctions, including restrictions on our ability to contribute additional capital into Nanjing KJF and Nanjing KJF’s ability to distribute dividends to our offshore holding companies, any of which would adversely affect our business.
Our revenues are denominated in RMB, which is not freely convertible for capital account transactions and may be subject to exchange rate volatility.
We are exposed to the risks associated with foreign exchange controls and restrictions in China, as our revenues are denominated in RMB, which is currently not freely exchangeable. The PRC government imposes control over the convertibility of RMB into foreign currencies. Under the rules promulgated under the PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and operation-related expenditures, may be made in foreign currencies without prior approval but are subject to procedural requirements. Strict foreign exchange control continues to apply to capital account transactions. These transactions must be approved by or registered with the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange and repayment of loan principal, distribution of return on direct capital investment and investments in negotiable instruments are also subject to restrictions. There can be no assurance that we will be able to meet all of our foreign currency obligations or to remit profits out of China.
Fluctuation in the value of the RMB and of the U.S. dollar may have a material adverse effect on your investment.
Any significant revaluation of the RMB may have a material adverse effect on our revenues and financial condition, as well as on the value of, and any dividends payable on, our ordinary shares in foreign currency terms. For instance, a decline in the value of RMB against the U.S. dollar could reduce the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts of our financial results, the value of your investment in us and the dividends we may pay in the future, if any.
There remains significant international pressure on the PRC government to liberalize further its currency policy, which could result in a further and more significant appreciation in the value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar. The RMB may be revalued further against the U.S. dollar or other currencies, or may be permitted to enter into a full or limited free float, which may result in an appreciation or depreciation in the value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar or other currencies.
| 15 |
We rely principally on dividends paid by entities under our control to fund any cash and financing requirements we may have, and any limitation on the ability of our PRC operating entities to pay dividends to us could have a material adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business.
The registrant is a Nevada company, which relies principally on dividends paid by its subsidiaries for cash requirements, including the funds necessary to service any debt we may incur. If any of our subsidiaries or operating entities incur debt in their own name in the future, the instruments governing the debt may restrict dividends or other distributions on its equity interest to us.
Furthermore, applicable PRC laws, rules and regulations permit payment of dividends by the consolidated PRC entities only out of their retained earnings, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards, which differ in many aspects from Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in other jurisdictions including IFRS. Based on PRC accounting standards, the consolidated PRC entities are also required to set aside a certain percentage of their after-tax profit each year to their reserve fund in accordance with the requirements of relevant laws and provisions in their respective articles of associations, which are not available for distribution as cash dividends. As a result, the consolidated PRC entities are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net income to the registrant whether in the form of dividends, loans or advances. Any limitation on the ability of our operating entities to pay dividends could materially adversely limit our ability to grow, make investments or acquisitions that could be beneficial to our businesses, pay dividends or otherwise fund and conduct our business.
Under the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and implementation regulations issued by the State Council, PRC income tax at the rate of 10%, unless relevant treaties provide for a lower rate, is applicable to dividends paid by enterprises incorporated in the PRC to “non-resident enterprises” (enterprises that do not have an establishment or place of business in the PRC, or that have such establishment or place of business but the relevant income is not effectively connected with the establishment or place of business) subject to the application of any relevant income tax treaty that the PRC has entered into. If the registrant or our non-PRC incorporated subsidiaries are considered “nonresident enterprises,” any dividend that registrant or any such subsidiary receives from the PRC operating entities may be subject to PRC taxation at the 10% rate (or lower treaty rate).
Any changes in PRC policies on enterprise income tax may adversely affect our ability to pay dividends and our financial condition.
On March 16, 2007, the new PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law (the “new tax law”) was issued and on December 6, 2007, the Rules on the Implementation of Enterprise Income Tax Law of the PRC (“Implementation Rules”) were issued, both of which became effective on January 1, 2008. Under the new tax law, non-PRC tax resident enterprises will be taxed at a withholding tax rate of 10% for British Virgin Islands companies. If an entity is deemed to be a PRC tax resident enterprise, which is an enterprise that is set up under PRC law within the territory of the PRC, or set up under the law of a foreign country or region but which has “de facto management organization” within the PRC, then qualified dividend and profit distribution from equity investment between them shall be exempted from withholding tax and income tax. Among other things, qualified dividend and profit distribution as stated in the new tax law shall refer to investment income derived by a PRC tax resident enterprise from the direct investment in other PRC tax resident enterprises, which shall exclude investment income from circulating stock issued publicly by PRC tax resident enterprises and traded on stock exchanges where the holding period is less than 12 months.
Our subsidiaries or PRC operating entities may trigger withholding tax requirements in the future under the new tax law and the Implementation Rules, depending on their classification as a PRC or non-PRC tax resident enterprise. The new tax law provides that if an enterprise incorporated outside of the PRC has “de facto management organization” within the PRC, it may be recognized as a PRC tax resident enterprise and may be subject to a 25% enterprise income tax on its worldwide income. According to the Implementation Rules, “de facto management organization” means the institution that materially and comprehensively manages and controls the enterprise’s business, personnel, finance and assets. Given the short history of the new tax law and the Implementation Rules, how an enterprise qualifies for tax exemptions remains unclear. Our ability to pay dividends and our financial condition may be adversely affected as a result of the new tax law and other changes in PRC policies and regulations on dividend distributions, withholding tax, and enterprise income tax.
| 16 |
As all of our management is currently substantially based in the PRC, we may be treated as a PRC resident enterprise for new tax law purposes. The tax consequences of such treatment are currently unclear as they will depend on the implementation regulations and on how local tax authorities apply or enforce the new tax law or the implementation regulations.
The levy and collection of enterprise income tax in the PRC are handled by various local governments, which in turn submit such tax revenues to their respective higher administrative authorities. Each local government has its own administrative practice with regard to the manner and the amount of tax submitted by the local government to its higher administrative authorities. PRC enterprises, including us, have no participation in or control over such administrative practices. Any discrepancies in implementation among the local governments of such administrative practice may result in uncertainties over the amount of tax for which a PRC enterprise is liable.
Fulfilling our obligations incident to being a public company will be expensive and time consuming.
Prior to the closing of the transactions contemplated under the VIE Agreements, our predecessor, as a company without operations, and Wuxi KJF, as a PRC private company, have maintained relatively small finance and accounting staffs. Although we maintained disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as required under the federal securities laws with respect to its very limited activities, it was not required to maintain and establish these disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls as will be required now that we have substantial operations. Under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, we will need to implement additional corporate governance practices and adhere to a variety of reporting requirements and complex accounting rules. Compliance with these obligations will require significant management time, place significant additional demands on our finance and accounting staff and on our financial, accounting and information systems, and increase our insurance, legal and financial compliance costs. We may also need to hire additional accounting and financial staff with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge.
Our failure to make adequate contributions to various employee benefit plans as required by PRC regulations may subject us to penalties.
Companies operating in China are required to participate in social insurance and housing fund plans. We have not fully contributed to such plans as required by applicable PRC regulations. As of September 30, 2013, with regards to the outstanding contributions, including historical underpayments to such plans, we made a provision of RMB2.28 million (US$0.37 million), which is reflected in our audited financial statements included in this filing. While we believe this provision is adequate, our failure to make sufficient payments to such plans does not fully comply with applicable PRC laws and regulations and we may be required to make up the contributions for such plans as well as to pay late fees and fines .
Our business will suffer if any necessary license cannot be maintained or renewed.
Any entity that conducts business in the PRC must have a business license that covers a particular type of work, and Wuxi KJF, Nanjing KJF, and the clubs we operate each hold valid business licenses. While the business licenses of each of Wuxi KJF, Nanjing KJF and the clubs cover their present business purposes, the standards of compliance required in relation thereto may from time to time be subject to change. While Nanjing KJF, Wuxi KJF and the clubs intend to apply for renewal and/or reassessment of such licenses when required by applicable laws and regulations, we cannot assure you that we will be able to renew our licenses or accomplish the reassessment of such licenses in a timely manner. Any changes in compliance standards, or any new laws or regulations that may prohibit or render it more restrictive for us to conduct business or increase compliance costs may adversely affect our operations or profitability. In addition, Nanjing KJF, Wuxi KJF and the spas we operate may not be able to carry on business without such licenses being renewed and/or reassessed.
In accordance with the Regulation of Fire Protection and safety management in Public Entertainment Places, and Fire Protection Law, an Opinion on Fire Protection Inspection (“Fire Opinion”) shall be obtained prior to the operation of a public entertainment place. Failure to comply with such requirement could impose penalties, including suspensions or shutdown of the business. Our operating entity, Wuxi KJF, operates a public entertainment place without a Fire Opinion due to the local practice, if the authority determines that Wuxi KJF violates such requirement as mentioned above, Wuxi KJF may not be able to carry on business continually.
| 17 |
Our contractual arrangements with Wuxi KJF and the Wuxi KJF Shareholders may not be as effective in providing control as direct ownership.
Our contractual arrangements with Wuxi KJF and the Wuxi KJF Shareholders provide us with effective control over Wuxi KJF. As a result of these contractual arrangements, we are considered to be the primary beneficiary of the economic benefits of ownership of Wuxi KJF, and we consolidate the results of operations, assets and liabilities of Wuxi KJF in our financial statements. However, these contractual arrangements may not be as effective in providing us with control over Wuxi KJF as direct equity ownership of Wuxi KJF. If Wuxi KJF or the Wuxi KJF Shareholders fail to perform their respective obligations under these contractual arrangements, we may have to incur substantial costs and resources to enforce such arrangements and rely on legal remedies under PRC law, including seeking specific performance or injunctive relief, and claiming damages, which we cannot assure you will be effective.
If the PRC government determines that the contractual arrangements through which we control Wuxi KJF do not comply with applicable regulations, our business could be adversely affected.
Although we believe our contractual relationships through which we control Wuxi KJF comply with current licensing and regulatory requirements of the PRC, we cannot assure you that the PRC government would agree, or that new and burdensome regulations will not be adopted in the future. If the PRC government determines that our structure or operating arrangements do not comply with applicable law, it could revoke our business and operating licenses, require us to discontinue or restrict our operations, restrict our right to collect revenues, require us to restructure our operations, impose additional conditions or requirements with which we may not be able to comply, impose restrictions on our business operations or on our customers, or take other regulatory or enforcement actions against us that could be harmful to our business.
We haven’t completed registration for our existing equity pledges, which may adversely affect our ability to control our operating affiliates.
The PRC Property Rights Law, which was promulgated on March 16, 2007 and became effective on October 1, 2007, requires registration with the local Administration of Industry and Commerce (the “AIC”) in order to create a security interest over an equity interest in a PRC company. Therefore, before the equity pledge is duly registered with the local AIC, the equity pledge is unenforceable even though the relevant equity pledge agreement is still binding. We submitted registration for our existing equity pledges with the local AIC on April 21, 2014., however, there is no assurance that we can have these equity pledges registration completed by the local AIC in a timely manner or at all. Considering that we have not completed registration for these existing equity pledges with the local AIC, any equity pledges created under these equity pledge agreements may be considered unenforceable. In the event we are unable to enforce these contractual arrangements, we may not be able to exert effective control over our operating affiliates, and our ability to conduct our business may be negatively affected.
If the custodians or authorized users of our controlling non-tangible assets, including corporate chops and seals fail to fulfill their responsibilities, or misappropriate or misuse these assets, our business and operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Under PRC law, legal documents for corporate transactions, including contracts that our business relies on, are executed using the chops or seal of the signing entity or with the signature of a legal representative whose designation is registered and filed with AIC.
Currently, the designated legal representative of our PRC operating entity is Mr. Yazhong Liao, the Company’s CEO and President. Accordingly, there is a risk that the registered legal representative of our PRC operating entity could abuse his authority, for example, by binding the Company with contracts against the Company’s interest or intentions which could result in economic harm or damages as a result of any contractual obligations, or resulting disputes that might arise. If the party contracting with the Company did not act in good faith under such circumstances, then we could incur costs to nullify such contracts.
We rely on the Company seals, financial chops and business licenses of our PRC entity for entering into contracts, conducting banking business, or taking official corporate action of any sort including registering any change to the composition of the board of directors or management with the relevant PRC authorities. In order to maintain the physical security of our chops, seals and business licenses and other controlling intangible assets, we generally store these items in secured locations accessible only by the authorized personnel in the local administrative and finance departments. Although we monitor such authorized personnel in the local administrative and finance departments, there is no assurance such procedures may be able to prevent all instances of abuse or negligence. Accordingly, if any of our authorized personnel in the local administrative and finance departments obtain and misuse or misappropriate our corporate chops, seals, business licenses or other controlling intangible assets, we could incur economic damage and disruption to our operations that may necessitate corporate or legal action. Such corporate or legal action could involve significant time and resources to resolve while distracting management from our operations. In particular, during any period were we lose effective control of the corporate activities as a result of such misuse or misappropriation, the business activities of the affected entity could be disrupted and we could lose the economic benefits of that aspect of our business which may negatively impact our business and reputation.
| 18 |
The shareholders of Wuxi KJF may have potential conflicts of interest with us, which may materially and adversely affect our business and financial condition.
The major shareholders of Wuxi KJF are Yazhong Liao, our Chairman of the Board of Directors, and Zhangmei Zhang and Huiwen Qu. Conflicts of interest between their role as shareholders of Wuxi KJF and their duties to us may arise. We cannot assure you that when conflicts of interest arise, these individuals will act in our best interests, or that conflicts of interest will be resolved in our favor. In addition, these individuals may breach or cause Wuxi KJF to breach or refuse to renew the existing contractual arrangements that allow us to effectively control Wuxi KJF and receive economic benefits from them. Currently, we do not have arrangements to address potential conflicts of interest between these individuals and our company, and a conflict could result in these individuals as officers of our company violating fiduciary duties to us. If we cannot resolve any conflicts of interest or disputes between us and the shareholders of Wuxi KJF, we would have to rely on legal proceedings, which could result in disruption of our business, and there would be substantial uncertainty as to the outcome of any such legal proceedings.
Contractual arrangements we have entered into may be subject to scrutiny by the PRC tax authorities, and a finding that we, or our affiliated entities, owe additional taxes that could reduce our net income and the value of your investment.
As required by applicable PRC laws and regulations, arrangements and transactions among related parties may be subject to audit or challenge by the PRC tax authorities. We could face adverse tax consequences if the PRC tax authorities determine that the contractual arrangements between Nanjing KJF and Wuxi KJF do not represent an arm’s-length price and adjust Wuxi KJF’s income in the form of a transfer pricing adjustment. A transfer pricing adjustment could, among other things, result in a reduction for PRC tax purposes of expense deductions recorded by Wuxi KJF, which could in turn increase its respective tax liabilities. In addition, the PRC tax authorities may impose late payment fees and other penalties on our affiliated entities for underpaid taxes. Our net income may be adversely affected if Wuxi KJF’s tax liabilities increase or if it is found to be subject to late payment fees or other penalties.
Currency fluctuations and restrictions on currency exchange may adversely affect our business, including limiting our ability to convert Chinese RMB into foreign currencies and, if Chinese RMB were to decline in value, reducing our revenue in U.S. dollar terms.
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar and our operations in the PRC use their local currency as their functional currencies. Substantially all of our revenue and expenses are in Chinese RMB. We are subject to the effects of exchange rate fluctuations with respect to any of these currencies. For example, the value of the RMB depends to a large extent on PRC government policies and the PRC’s domestic and international economic and political developments, as well as supply and demand in the local market. Since 1994, the official exchange rate for the conversion of RMB to the U.S. dollar had generally been stable and the RMB had appreciated slightly against the U.S. dollar. However, on July 21, 2005, the PRC government changed its policy of pegging the value of Chinese RMB to the U.S. dollar. Under the new policy, Chinese RMB may fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. Following the removal of the U.S. dollar peg, the RMB appreciated more than 20% against the U.S. dollar over the following three years. It is difficult to predict when and how RMB exchange rates may change going forward.
The income statements of our operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in each applicable period. To the extent the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currency denominated transactions results in reduced revenue, operating expenses and net income for our operations. Similarly, to the extent the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currency denominated transactions results in increased revenue, operating expenses and net income for our operations. We are also exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations as we convert the financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries and operating entities into U.S. dollars in consolidation. If there is a change in foreign currency exchange rates, the conversion of the foreign subsidiaries’ or operating entities’ financial statements into U.S. dollars will lead to a translation gain or loss which is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. In addition, we have certain assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the relevant entity’s functional currency. Changes in the functional currency value of these assets and liabilities create fluctuations that will lead to a transaction gain or loss. We have not entered into agreements or purchased instruments to hedge its exchange rate risks, although it may do so in the future. The availability and effectiveness of any hedging transaction may be limited and we may not be able to successfully hedge its exchange rate risks.
Although PRC governmental policies were introduced in 1996 to allow the convertibility of Chinese RMB into foreign currency for current account items, conversion of Chinese RMB into foreign exchange for capital items, such as foreign direct investment, loans or securities, requires the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE), which is under the authority of the People’s Bank of China. These approvals, however, do not guarantee the availability of foreign currency conversion. We cannot be sure that we will be able to obtain all required conversion approvals for our operations or that PRC regulatory authorities will not impose greater restrictions on the convertibility of Chinese RMB in the future. Because a significant amount of our future revenue will be in the form of Chinese RMB, our inability to obtain the requisite approvals or any future restrictions on currency exchanges could limit our ability to utilize revenue generated in Chinese RMB to fund our business activities outside of the PRC, or to repay foreign currency obligations, including our debt obligations, which would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

We may have limited legal recourse under PRC law if disputes arise under our contracts with third parties.
The PRC government has enacted some laws and regulations dealing with matters such as corporate organization and governance, foreign investment, commerce, taxation and trade. However, their experience in implementing, interpreting and enforcing these laws and regulations is limited, and our ability to enforce commercial claims or to resolve commercial disputes is unpredictable. If business ventures are unsuccessful, we face the risk that the parties to these ventures may seek ways to terminate the transactions, or, may hinder or prevent us from accessing important information regarding the financial and business operations of these acquired companies. The resolution of these matters may be subject to the exercise of considerable discretion by agencies of the PRC government, and forces unrelated to the legal merits of a particular matter or dispute may influence their determination. Any rights we may have to specific performance or to seek an injunction under PRC law are severely limited in either of these cases. Without a means of recourse by virtue of the Chinese legal system, we may be unable to prevent these situations from occurring. The occurrence of any such events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
You may have difficulty enforcing judgments against us.
Our holding company are organized under the laws of Hong Kong and most of our assets are located outside of the United States. Most of our current operations are conducted in the PRC. In addition, most of our directors and officers are nationals and residents of countries other than the United States. A substantial portion of the assets of these persons is located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for you to effect service of process within the United States upon these persons. It may also be difficult for you to enforce in U.S. courts judgments on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws against us and our officers and directors, most of whom are not residents in the United States and the substantial majority of whose assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of the PRC would recognize or enforce judgments of U.S. courts (imposing monetary fines, penalties, damages or otherwise) or entertain original actions brought in the courts of the PRC against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States. Courts in China may recognize and enforce foreign judgments in accordance with the requirements of the PRC Civil Procedures Law based on treaties between China and the country where the judgment is made or on reciprocity between jurisdictions. China does not have any treaties or other arrangements that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments with the United States. In addition, according to the PRC Civil Procedures Law, courts in the PRC will not recognize or enforce a foreign judgment against us or our directors and officers (imposing monetary fines, penalties, damages or otherwise) or entertain original actions brought in the courts of the PRC against us or our directors or officers predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state in the United States if they decide that the judgment violates basic principles of PRC law or national sovereignty, security or the public interest. So it is uncertain whether a PRC court would recognize or enforce a judgment rendered by a court in the United States.
We must comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and PRC Anti-Bribery Law, which may put us at a competitive disadvantage.
We are required to comply with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits U.S. companies from engaging in bribery or other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Foreign companies, including some of our competitors, are not subject to these prohibitions. We are also subject to the PRC Anti-Bribery Law, which strictly prohibits bribery of government officials. Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices occur from time-to-time in mainland China. If our competitors engage in these practices, they may receive preferential treatment from personnel of some companies, giving our competitors an advantage in securing business, or from government officials who might give them priority in obtaining new licenses, which would put us at a disadvantage. Although we inform our personnel that such practices are illegal, we cannot assure you that our employees or other agents will not engage in such conduct for which we might be held responsible. If our employees or other agents are found to have engaged in such practices, we could suffer severe penalties.
Certain PRC government approvals may be required under regulations adopted in August 2006, and, if required, we cannot predict whether we will be able to obtain such approval.
In 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies jointly adopted the Regulations on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Enterprises by Foreign Investors, or the M&A Rule. This rule requires that if an overseas company is established or controlled by PRC domestic companies or citizens intends to acquire equity interests or assets of any other PRC domestic company affiliated with the PRC domestic companies or citizens, such acquisition must be submitted to the Ministry of Commerce, rather than local regulators, for approval. In addition, this regulation requires that an overseas company controlled directly or indirectly by PRC companies or citizens and holding equity interests of PRC domestic companies needs to obtain the approval of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, or CSRC, prior to listing its securities on an overseas stock exchange. On September 21, 2006, the CSRC published a notice on its official website specifying the documents and materials required to be submitted by overseas special purpose companies seeking CSRC’s approval of their overseas listings.
| 20 |
While the application of the M&A Rule remains unclear, based on their understanding of current PRC laws, regulations, and the notice published on September 21, 2006, since our operating entities were established by means of direct investment, rather than by merger or acquisition of the equity interest or assets of any “domestic company” as defined under the M&A Rules, and no provision in the M&A Rules classifies our contractual arrangements with Wuxi KJF as a type of acquisition transaction falling under the M&A Rules, we are not required to submit an application to the Ministry of Commerce or the CSRC for its approval for our contractual control of Wuxi KJF or any of our transactions.
If the CSRC or another PRC regulatory agency subsequently determines that the approvals from the Ministry of Commerce and/or CSRC were required, our contractual control over the PRC business could be challenged and we may need to apply for a remedial approval and may be subject to certain administrative punishments or other sanctions from PRC regulatory agencies. The regulatory agencies may impose fines and penalties on our operations in the PRC, limit our operating privileges in the PRC, delay or restrict the repatriation of our foreign currency in our offshore bank accounts into the PRC, or take other actions that could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, reputation and prospects, as well as the trading price of our ordinary shares.
The M&A Rule sets forth complex procedures for acquisitions conducted by foreign investors that could make it more difficult to pursue acquisitions.
The M&A Rule sets forth complex procedures and requirements that could make merger and acquisition activities by foreign investors more time-consuming and complex, including requirements in some instances that the Ministry of Commerce be notified in advance of any change-of-control transaction in which a foreign investor takes control of a PRC domestic enterprise. Complying with the requirements of the M&A Rule to complete such transactions could be time-consuming, and any required approval processes, including obtaining approval from the Ministry of Commerce, may delay or inhibit our ability to complete such transactions, which could affect our ability to expand our business or maintain our market share.
Risks Related to our Securities
Insiders have substantial control over us, and they could delay or prevent a change in our corporate control even if our other shareholders wanted it to occur.
Our executive officers, directors, and principal shareholders hold approximately a large majority of our outstanding ordinary shares. Accordingly, these shareholders are able to control all matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This could delay or prevent an outside party from acquiring or merging with us even if our other shareholders wanted it to occur.
We are not likely to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
We currently intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business. Accordingly, we do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but will review this policy as circumstances dictate. Should we determine to pay dividends in the future, our ability to do so will depend upon the receipt of dividends or other payments from our PRC-based contractually controlled entity may, from time to time, be subject to restrictions on its ability to make distributions to us, including restrictions on the conversion of RMB into U.S. dollars or other hard currency and other regulatory restrictions.
We cannot assure you that our common stock will become liquid or that they will be listed on a securities exchange.
Until our ordinary shares are listed on an exchange, or are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, another over-the-counter quotation system, or in the “pink sheets,” we expect that our common stock will remain non-tradable. In those venues, however, an investor may find it difficult to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our ordinary shares. In addition, if we fail to meet the criteria set forth in SEC regulations, various requirements would be imposed by law on broker-dealers who sell our ordinary shares to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, such regulations may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling our ordinary shares, which may further affect its liquidity. This would also make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital.
| 21 |
In order to raise sufficient funds to expand our operations, we may have to issue additional securities at prices that may result in substantial dilution to our shareholders.
If we raise additional funds through the sale of equity or convertible debt, our current shareholders’ percentage ownership will be reduced. In addition, these transactions may dilute the value of our securities outstanding. We may have to issue securities that may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to our ordinary shares. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to raise additional funds on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If future financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to fund our future needs, which would have a material adverse effect on our business plans, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results. As a result, current and potential investors could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which could harm our business and have an adverse effect on our stock price.
Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we may be required to annually furnish a report by our management on our internal control over financial reporting. Such report may have to contain, among other matters, an assessment by our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, including a statement as to whether or not our internal control over financial reporting is effective as of the end of our fiscal year. Any such assessment must include disclosure of any material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting identified by management. In addition, under current SEC rules, we will be required to obtain an attestation from our independent registered public accounting firm as to our internal control over financial reporting for our annual report on Form 10-K covering our next fiscal year. Performing the system and process documentation and evaluation needed to comply with Section 404 is both costly and challenging. During the course of our testing we may identify deficiencies which we may not be able to remediate in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 for compliance with the requirements of Section 404. In addition, if we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a material adverse effect on the price of our ordinary shares.
Compliance with rules and requirements applicable to public companies will cause us to incur additional costs, and any failure by us to comply with such rules and requirements could negatively affect investor confidence in us and cause the market price of our securities to decline.
As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company, many of which are not reflected in our historical financial statements. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as rules adopted by the SEC and the securities exchanges, such as the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC and NYSE AMEX, have required changes in the corporate governance practices of public companies. We expect these rules and regulations to increase our legal, accounting and financial compliance costs and to make certain corporate activities more time-consuming and costly. Complying with these rules and requirements may be especially difficult and costly for us because we may have difficulty locating sufficient personnel in China with experience and expertise relating to U.S. GAAP and United States public company reporting requirements, and such personnel may command high salaries. If we cannot employ sufficient personnel to ensure compliance with these rules and regulations, we may need to rely more on outside legal, accounting and financial experts, which may be very costly. In addition, we will incur additional costs associated with our public company reporting requirements. We cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.
We may be subject to the penny stock rules which will make our securities more difficult to sell.
If we are able to obtain a listing of our securities on a national securities exchange, we may be subject in the future to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules if our securities sell below $5.00 per share. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. The penny stock rules require broker-dealers to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to completing the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. The penny stock rules are burdensome and may reduce purchases of any offerings and reduce the trading activity for our securities. As long as our securities are subject to the penny stock rules, the holders of such securities may find it more difficult to sell their securities.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND PROSPECTS
Disclaimer Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These include statements about our expectations, beliefs, intentions or strategies for the future, which we indicate by words or phrases such as "anticipate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “will,” we believe,” “believes,” “management believes” and similar language. Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters discussed in this ‘Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations’ and elsewhere in this report are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The factors listed in the section captioned “Risk Factors,” as well as any cautionary language in this report, provide examples of risks, uncertainties and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from those projected. Except as may be required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events after the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Overview
We own and operate three health care clubs featuring traditional Chinese-style foot massage and other traditional relaxing treatments in Jiangsu province, China. Currently we have three clubs located in Wuxi and Nanjing and Jintan. The new club in Nantong was in start-up and promotion stage. We differentiate ourselves from other Chinese foot massage clubs based on our decorative style, club size, cultural background, and services.
Our main service is foot massage, body massage, spa, moxibustion, referred to as reflexology. In China, reflexology is widely believed to offer health and therapeutic benefits, based on ancient Chinese medical theories involving body energy system pathways and blockages that can develop, which can be reflected in other parts of the body as malady or discomfort. Western views on foot massage and massage in general are varied, with skeptics and several studies claiming little or no real therapeutic benefit. There is, however, near universal agreement that foot massage and massage are relaxing and rejuvenating.
Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Assumptions
Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires management of the Company to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount of assets, liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates and assumptions including those related to the useful lives and recoverability of the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, impairment of long-lived assets, and deferred tax based on historical experience and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, and accruals for income tax uncertainties and other contingencies. Changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on hand and demand deposits or liquid investments that are placed with banks and other financial institutions and are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use, or have remaining maturities of three months or less.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
The cost of an asset comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing that asset to its present working condition and location for its intended use. Repairs and maintenance of fixed assets are expensed as incurred. Subsequent expenditures for major reconstruction, expansion, improvement and renovation are capitalized when it is probable that future economic benefits in excess of the original assessment of performance will flow to the Company. Capitalized expenditures arising from major reconstruction, expansion and improvement are depreciated using the straight-line method over the remaining useful lives of the fixed assets. Capitalized expenditures arising from the renovation of fixed assets are depreciated on the straight-line basis over the expected beneficial periods.
| 24 |
The leasehold improvements represents the actual historical cost for bringing the club spaces and office space we leased to the condition and location necessary for their intended use (to provide service to our customers or to provide work place for administrative staff). The costs included payments to fitment construction companies, construction materials, air conditioning system, electricity system, etc. Leasehold improvement is amortized over 5-year period, which is the shorter of the lease term and estimated useful life.
Depreciation is provided to write off the cost of property and equipment over their useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated salvage values, using the straight-line method:
| Furniture, computer and electronic equipment and leasehold improvement | 5 years | |
| Office equipment | 5 years | |
| Motor vehicle | 5 years |
Management estimates the salvage value of property plant and equipment to be 5% of original value excluding leasehold improvement. The salvage value of leasehold improvement estimated by the management is 0%.
Revenue recognition
Revenues are recognized when the following four criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the service has been rendered, (iii) the fees are fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
Service Revenue
The Company generates service revenue primarily from providing physiotherapy service including pedicure, sauna and massage to its individual customers. Upon receipt of the upfront cash payments for pre purchase of multiple massages from the individual customer, the full payment will be deferred and recognized as unearned income. The Company recognizes service revenue proportionately when services are provided to customer, and there is no expiration date for the prepayment.
Sundry Foods Revenue
The Company also sells sundry foods to the individual customers when provided with physiotherapy services. Sundry Food Revenue is recognized after foods are delivered, the price is fixed or determinable and collection of the receivables is reasonably assured.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues primarily consists of salaries, bonuses and allowances paid to physiotherapists and other service staff, rental payments, materials consumed during the physiotherapy, the depreciation and amortization of property and equipment, and the business taxes.
Operating leases
Wuxi KJF, Wuxi Club, Nanjing Club and Jintan all lease office or operating premises under non-cancelable operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the consolidated statements of income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Rental and property management fee expenses for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $659,810 and $607,797, respectively.
Wuxi KJF and Wuxi Club signed the lease agreement and property management agreement with the same landlord as their office and operation are in the same premise in July 2010. The lease term was 9 years with no renewal period. The rental increases 16.7% at the end of the third year and 21.4% at the end of the sixth year, and the property management fee retains flat.
Nanjing Club signed the lease and property management agreement in August 2011. The lease term was 10 years with no renewal period. There was 184-day rental holiday at the inception of the lease and the rental increase 5% each year from the third year of the lease term and the property management fee remains flat.
| 25 |
Jintan Club signed the lease and property management agreement in April 2012. The lease term was 10 years with no renewal period. The rental increases 6% each year and the property management fee remains flat.
Wuxi KJF signed the lease and property management agreement for future Nantong Club in September 2011. The lease term was 10 years with no renewal period. There was 150-day rental holiday at the inception of the lease and the rental increases 5% at the end of the third year and the end of the sixth year, and the property management fee remains flat.

Revenue and Cost
Revenue. Our revenues are derived from foot massage, body massage, and other therapy treatments services. For the years ended December 31, 2013, the Company had revenues of $568,534 compared to revenues of $486,710 for the years ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $81,824 or approximately 16.81%. The increase in revenue experienced by the Company was primarily because the new Jintan Club was established in November 2013 which contributed $119,201 revenue for the year ended December 31, 2013 but $0 for the year ended December 31, 2012. Revenue of Nanjing Club increased $66,788 (119%) for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, because it was opened in August 2012 and operated for only 5 months in the year ended December 31, 2012. Revenue of Wuxi Club decreased $113,407 (26%) during the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, because the Company is gradually switching Wuxi Club into the training center of the group due to its Fire License issue and a portion of Wuxi Club’s customers went to take the services in Nanjing Club or Jintan Club in the year ended December 31, 2013.

Since our three clubs were all in start-up or promotion stage, and Nanjing Club’s operation was significantly influenced by the construction of a shopping mall around the club location, as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, there were not sufficient customers to come to the clubs to take the services and the clubs’ rooms were often vacant. Our clubs were operated in an abnormal low usage level of our capacity. Therefore, fixed costs were allocated between cost of sales and cost of excess capacity.
In measuring cost of revenue, variable inputs cost are allocated to each unit of services provided on the basis of the actual use of the facilities. However, the allocation of fixed inputs to the costs of revenue is based on the normal capacity of the facilities. Normal capacity refers to a range of utility levels. Normal capacity is the utility rate expected to be achieved over a number of periods or seasons under normal circumstances, taking into account the loss of capacity resulting from planned maintenance. Some variation in production levels from period to period is expected and establishes the range of normal capacity. The range of normal capacity will vary based on business- and industry-specific factors. Judgment is required to determine when a utility level is abnormally low (that is, outside the range of expected variation in utility). The actual level of utility may be used if it approximates normal capacity. In periods of abnormally high production, the amount of fixed inputs allocated to each unit of service will be decreased so that cost of revenue is not measured above actual cost. The amount of fixed inputs allocated to each unit of service provided will not be increased as a consequence of abnormally low utility or idle capacity. Unallocated inputs will be recognized separately as “cost of excess capacity” in the period in which they are incurred.
The clubs’ direct costs recognized between fixed cost and variable cost are as follow:
| Item | Cost type | |
| Direct labor | Fixed cost and Variable cost | |
| Rental and property management | Fixed cost | |
| Depreciation | Fixed cost | |
| Meal allowance | Variable cost | |
| Materials consumed | Variable cost | |
| Business tax and surcharge | Variable cost | |
| Utilities | Variable cost |
For the year ended December 31, 2013, cost of revenue was $435,019 compared to $456,004 for the year ended December 31, 2012, representing a decrease of $20,985, or approximately 4.60%. The decrease was mainly due to the cost of revenue of Wuxi Club was $237,983 for the year ended December 31, 2013 decreased from $345,830 for the year ended December 31, 2012. This decrease of $107, 847 (31%) in Wuxi Club’s cost of revenue was because its revenue decreased 26% as mentioned above, and the Company reduced about one third of the number of employees during the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2012.
For the year ended December 31, 2013, cost of excess capacity was $763,833 compared to $645,836 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $117,997, or approximately 18.27%. The increase in cost of excess capacity was mainly due to the negative impact on our business in Nanjing Club. The cost of excess capacity of Nanjing Club was $463,858 for the year ended December 31, 2013, increased $82,191 from $381,667 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The newly opened Jintan Club also contributed $54,633 cost of excess capacity for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Selling and general and administrative expenses
Our Selling and general and administrative expenses mainly consisted of salaries, office rent, depreciation and consulting service fee, etc. and totaled $1,490,960 for the year ended December 31, 2013. Compared to $1,982,580 for the year ended December 31, 2012, there was a decrease of $491,620, or approximately 24.80%. This decrease was primarily attributable to professional service fee decreased $526,000 from $864,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012 to $338,000 for the year ended December 31, 2013. During the year ended December 31, 2012, it took us $864,000 to hire a professional agent to help us to reorganize the company’s structure to meet the requirement of US listing. And during the year ended December 31, 2013, the amount $338,000 professional service fee is mainly related to our auditors’ and legal counsel’s service.
Impairment of long-lived assets
During the year ended December 31, 2013, a construction of a shopping mall was started around the location of Nanjing Club and significantly reduced Nanjing Club’s business. The construction is expected to take at least two years. In December 2013, we have decided to take voluntary action to temporarily suspend our business in Nanjing Club and reassess its operation as Nanjing Club has been incurring significant operating losses. The reassessment was set to start from January 2014 and we expected to reopen Nanjing Club in June 2014. We determined that the sum of undiscounted cash flows from Nanjing Club is expected to be less than the carrying value of such long-lived assets group, and accordingly evaluated the impairment loss on the long-lived assets and recorded an impairment loss in the amount of $955,466 for the year ended December 31, 2013. The impaired assets were mainly leasehold improvements of Nanjing Club and furniture and office equipment in it. The fair value of the impaired long-lived assets was determined by the discounted cash flows from Nanjing Club future operations and determined to be $24,913 as of December 31, 2013. By applying the discounted cash flows model, we used discount rate of 16%.
Income tax
Wuxi KJF and Jintan Club Wuxi KJF and Jintan Club are subject to EIT on the taxable income in accordance with the relevant People’s Republic of China (the "PRC") income tax laws. The EIT rate for companies operating in the PRC is 25%. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, both Wuxi KJF and Jintan Club suffered operating loss and did not recognize deferred tax benefit from net operating loss because the company does not have a sufficient operation profit to conclude that it is more-likely-than-not that Wuxi KJF and Jintan Club will be able to realize its tax benefits in the near future
Wuxi Club and Nanjing Club
Wuxi Club and Nanjing Club are not subject to EIT as they are limited liability partnerships, however each individual partner is subject to IIT on his/her distributive share of taxable income in accordance with the relevant PRC income tax laws. Each enterprise partner is subject to EIT at its applicable EIT rate on its distributive share of taxable income from the partnership. Wuxi KJF, as Wuxi Club and Nanjing Club’s enterprise partner, is subject its distributive share in Wuxi Club and Nanjing Club’s taxable income (39.80% and 58.33%, respectively) to EIT at 25% tax rate. Wuxi KJF could also carry forward its distributive share in Wuxi Club and Nanjing Club’s deductible loss (39.80% and 58.33%, respectively) for 5 years to offset any future distributive taxable income from the respective club. But the distributive deductible loss from the 2 partnerships (Wuxi Club and Nanjing Club) could not be used to offset Wuxi KJF’s other operating income. Wuxi Club and Nanjing Club both incurred net loss for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the amount was included in Wuxi KJF’s reconciliation and deferred tax assets determination.

Cash flow from Operating Activities
Net cash of $1,779,909 was used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $560,640 for the year ended December 31, 2012, representing a decrease of $2,340,549. The decrease in net cash provided by our operating activities was primarily attributable to the following reasons: (i) a decrease in unearned income of $177,590 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and an increase in unearned income of $2,312,184 for the year ended December 31, 2012, which is a difference of $2,489,774.

The increase in net cash provided by financing activities was primarily attributable to the following reasons: i) loan to an owner of $205,627 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and $2,678,564 for the year ended December 31, 2013, which is a difference of $2,472,937; ii) $788,500 capital contribution from non-controlling interests for the year ended December 31, 2012 but $0 for the year ended December 31, 2013; iii) collection from owner of $1,740,998 for the year ended December 31, 2013 but $0 for the year ended December 31, 2012; iv) increase in advances from investors of new clubs of $2,687,433 for the year ended December 31, 2012 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2013; v) in order to raise necessary working capital for the new clubs’ decorations, an increase in loan from third parties of $729,090 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and $0 the year ended December 31, 2012.
Currently the Company generates cash to meet short- and long-term cash requirements by several means. 1) The current main source of cash is to sell “VIP cards for Kang Jia Fu Royal Traditional Health Clubhouse” to our customers coming to our clubs to take the services. We advertise and sell the VIP cards mainly by advertising on local television and medias as well we our website, organizing promotion events and handing out promotional materials, and existing customers’ referrals to new customers. 2) In the year 2014, relying on the mature sales channels, the Company has started to develop new products or services to expand our revenue sources. We have developed Health Recuperation Program, Royal Tea Drinks and Royal Condiment Products, which will start to be sold in the year 2014. The Company will also implement sales agent mechanism for the sale of new Royal Tea Drinks and Royal Condiment Products, and set up city-level agents. We expect to set up 120 sales agents first in Wuxi, and each agent is required to sell minimum RMB5,000 products to get the agent license. The agents can then continuously sell our products and get sales skill training from us. One of the agents could be authorized as city-level agents through bidding. We expect to implement such mechanism in other cities too and develop 15 city-level agents during the year 2014. 3) Wuxi KangJiaFu Biotech Technology Co., Ltd has also committed to repay $2,423,615 to the Company during the years 2014. 4) The owners of the Company would provide any capital shortfall. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving these goals.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
Quantitative And Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Foreign Exchange Risk
Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar Transactions in other currencies are recorded in Renminbi at the rates of exchange prevailing when the transactions occur. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies are remeasured into Renminbi at rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet dates. Exchange gains and losses are recorded in our statements of operations as a component of current period earnings.
The State Administration on Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, of the PRC, under the authority of the People’s Bank of China, controls the conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies. The principal regulation governing foreign currency exchange in the PRC is the Foreign Currency Administration Rules (1996), as amended, or the “Rules.” Under the Rules, once various procedural requirements are met, Renminbi is convertible for current account transactions, including trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions and dividend payments, but not for capital account transactions, including direct investment, loans or investments in securities outside the PRC, without prior approval of the SAFE of the PRC, or its local counterparts.
Since July 2005, the Renminbi is no longer pegged to the U.S. dollar. Although currently the Renminbi exchange rate versus the U.S. dollar is restricted to a rise or fall of no more than 0.3% per day and the People’s Bank of the PRC regularly intervenes in the foreign exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange rate, the Renminbi may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar in the medium to long term. Moreover, it is possible that in the future, the PRC authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in the Renminbi exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market. As of December 31, 2010, the exchange rate of RMB to USD1.0000 was RMB6.6000. On June 19, 2010, the People’s Bank of China announced the removal of the de facto peg. Following this announcement, the Renminbi depreciated from 6.7968 Renminbi per U.S. dollar on June 21, 2010 to 6.1104 Renminbi per U.S. dollar on December 31, 2013.
| 29 |
We conduct substantially all of our operations through our PRC operating companies, and their financial performance and position are measured in terms of Renminbi. Our solutions are primarily procured, sold and delivered in the PRC for Renminbi. The majority of our net revenue are denominated in Renminbi.
Any devaluation of the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar would consequently have an adverse effect on reported financial performance and asset values when measured in terms of U.S. dollars.
In recent years, the PRC has not experienced significant inflation, and thus inflation has not had a material impact on our results of operations.
