NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
ZOOM TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
MARCH 31, 2010 AND 2009

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND PROPOSED BUSINESS OPERATIONS

The Acquisition

On September 22, 2009, Zoom Technologies, Inc. ("Zoom or the "Company"), pursuant to the share exchange agreement dated January 28, 2009, (and later amended on May 12, 2009) acquired all the outstanding shares of Gold Lion Holding Limited ("Gold Lion"), a company organized and existing under the laws of the British Virgin Islands ("BVI"). In connection with the share exchange transaction, the Company spun off its then-existing business to its stockholders, by distributing and transferring all assets and liabilities of the subsidiary and issuing shares of its then operating subsidiary as a dividend to its stockholders.

The parties to the share exchange agreement were: (1) Zoom Technologies, Inc., (2) Tianjin Tong Guang Group Digital Communication Co., Ltd., ("TCB Digital") a company organized under the laws of the People's Republic of China, ("PRC"); (3) Zoom Telephonics, Inc., or Zoom Telephonics, a wholly owned subsidiary of Zoom; (4) Gold Lion, (5) Lei (Leo) Gu, a citizen of the PRC; and (6) Songtao Du, a citizen of the PRC.

Gold Lion owns 100% of the outstanding stock of Jiangsu Leimone Electronics Co., Ltd., ("Jiangsu Leimone"), a foreign investment enterprise organized under the laws of the PRC that engages in the manufacturing, research and development, and sales of electronic components for 3rd generation mobile phones, wireless communication circuitry, GPS equipment, and related software products. Jiangsu Leimone owned 51.03% of the outstanding capital stock of TCB Digital; until March 31, 2010 when Mr. Gu, the Chairman & CEO of the Company, exercised his option to purchase an additional 28.97% of TCB Digital and transferred such ownership to the Company and resulted in an increase in our Company's ownership of TCB Digital to 80%. Gold Lion also owns 100% of Profit Harvest Corporation Ltd, ("Profit Harvest"), a marketing and sales company organized and existing under the laws of Hong Kong.

Mr. Gu owned 70.6% of the outstanding capital stock of Gold Lion and held an option indirectly to acquire an additional 28.97% of the outstanding capital stock of TCB Digital, which he exercised as of March 31, 2010.

Mr. Du owned 29.4% of the outstanding capital stock of Gold Lion, which was pledged to Mr. Wei Cao.

On September 22, 2009, pursuant to the share exchange agreement and the approval of the majority of the stockholders of the Company, the Company acquired from the Gold Lion shareholders 100% of Gold Lion for 4,225,219 shares of Company common stock. As a result of this issuance, the former Gold Lion shareholders owned approximately 69.3% of the outstanding stock of the Company and the transaction was recorded as a reverse acquisition. Prior to the reverse acquisition, the Company had 1,980,978 shares outstanding which were recapitalized as part of the reverse acquisition. Mr. Gu, who holds an option to acquire an additional 28.97% of the outstanding capital stock of TCB Digital, pursuant to the share exchange agreement and the approval of the majority of the stockholders of the Company, agreed to provide Mr. Gu the option to exchange the additional 28.97% interest in TCB Digital for an additional 2,402,576 shares of our common stock. As of March 31, 2010, Mr. Gu exercised this option (See Subsidiary details).

Simultaneous with the closing of the merger, the Company issued a dividend of 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of Zoom Telephonics to its stockholders of record immediately prior to the closing. We refer to this as the "spin-off". In connection with the spin-off, the Company distributed all of its current and future assets and liabilities related to Zoom to Zoom Telephonics, subject to certain licensing rights discussed below. Zoom's stockholders immediately prior to the closing retained their existing shares in Zoom and also received an equal number of new shares in Zoom Telephonics. After the merger and the spin-off, the Company and Zoom Telephonics became independent companies.

4


TCB Digital and Zoom Telephonics entered into a license agreement granting TCB Digital licensing rights for "Zoom" and "Hayes" trademarks for certain products and geographic regions. Zoom and Zoom Telephonics also entered into a separation and distribution agreement that allocates responsibility for obligations arising before and after the spin-off, including, among others, obligations relating to taxes.

Our former directors, entered into founder lock-up agreements pursuant to which they agreed that during the one-year period commencing on the date of closing that each will not sell, transfer, assign, pledge or hypothecate, in any calendar month, greater than 3% of the shares of our common stock sold in the previous four calendar weeks.

The Subsidiaries

Gold Lion was founded by Mr. Gu Lei ("Gu") in September 2002 in the BVI. Pursuant to an agreement dated June 30, 2007, Mr. Cao Wei ("Cao"), purchased from Gu 29.4% of the outstanding shares of the Company. Through a resolution of the Company on November 26, 2008, the Company's issued 705 shares to Gu and 294 shares to Mr. Du Songtao ("Du"), resulting in 1,000 issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. Pursuant to a pledge agreement dated November 26, 2008, Du pledged his 294 shares to Cao, including all rights to such shares. As such, Gu and Cao jointly control 100% of Gold Lion.

On August 2, 2007, Gu founded Profit Harvest in Hong Kong, and in December 2008, 100% ownership of Profit Harvest was transferred to Gold Lion.

Pursuant to the capital injection agreement ("the Agreement") by and among Tianjin Communication and Broadcasting Group Co., Ltd. ("TCBGCL"), TCBGCL Labour Union, Hebei Leimone Science and Technology Co., Ltd. ("Hebei Leimone"), Tianjin 712 Communication and Broadcasting Co., Ltd. ("712"), Beijing Depu Investment Co., Ltd. ("Beijing Depu") and other natural person shareholders on May 8, 2007 and a resolution of the shareholder's meeting on June 30, 2007, Hebei Leimone, a company controlled by Gu, acquired 25.13% of TCB Digital from TCBGCL Labour Union and various natural person shareholders for RMB9,000,000, approximately $1,286,000. Pursuant to this Agreement, Hebei Leimone and Beijing Depu, the companies controlled by Gu and Cao respectively, were to invest additional RMB15,928,700 and RMB10,377,600 respectively in TCB Digital, bringing the total investment from Hebei Leimone and Beijing Depu to $4,679,111 (RMB35,306,300). After this additional investment was made as of June 30, 2007, Hebei Leimone and Beijing Depu held 36.03% and 15% respectively of TCB Digital, or 51.03% ownership in TCB Digital. Pursuant to an agreement dated June 30, 2007, Cao irrevocably pledged his 15% interest in TCB Digital through his ownership in Beijing Depu to Gu in exchange for a 29.4% stake in Gold Lion. As of March 31, 2010, Gu exercised his option to transfer an additional 28.97% of TCB Digital to the Company. The Company will issue 2,402,576 common shares to Mr. Gu as purchase consideration and 60,000 common shares to an investment banker as compensation cost as part of this transaction. This transaction will be recorded under SFAS No. 160 (Included in ASC 810 "Consolidation") "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements", an amendment of ARB No. 51 with the excess of fair value of shares over the carrying value of minority interests will be charged to additional paid in capital. The Company's ownership interest in TCB Digital is increased to 80% as at March 31, 2010. The Company recorded the value of shares to be issued as part of this transaction amounting to $4.9 million in the accompanied financial statements.

On November 30, 2007, Gold Lion and GD Industrial Company signed a share transfer agreement, pursuant to which, GD Industrial Company transferred 60% of Nantong Zong Yi Kechuang Digital Camera Technology Co., Ltd. ("Nantong Zong Yi") for $10,273 to the Company. In July 2008, Nantong Zong Yi changed its name to Jiangsu Leimone Electronic Co., Ltd. ("Jiangsu Leimone"). Before the acquisition, Jiangsu Leimone had no operating activities. In January 2008, the Company invested $5,074,226 (HK$38,800,000) in Jiangsu Leimone to increase the Company's ownership in Jiangsu Leimone to 80%. Pursuant to the share transfer agreement by and between Gold Lion and Nantong Zong Yi Investment Co., Ltd. dated November 26, 2008, the Company acquired the remaining 20% of Jiangsu Leimone from Nantong Zong Yi Investment Co., Ltd. for $103,214 (HK$800,000). After this transaction, the Company owned 100% of Jiangsu Leimone.

Pursuant to the share transfer agreement by and among Hebei Leimone, Beijing Depu Investment Co., Ltd and Jiangsu Leimone dated December 15, 2008, Hebei Leimone and Beijing Depu Investment Co., Ltd. transferred their 51.03% of TCB Digital to Jiangsu Leimone on December 30, 2008.

Because TCB Digital and Profit Harvest are under common control with the Company since July 2007 and August 2007, respectively, we combined their financials at historical cost with the Company from the date the Company acquired control. Acquisition method is used when the Company has actual equity investment in TCB Digital and Profit Harvest.

TCB Digital is a high technology company engaged in electronic and telecommunication product design, development, and manufacturing. TCB Digital started its business in 1999 and was originally established as an Electronic Manufacturing Service (EMS) factory for mobile phone vendors.

Basis of Presentation

The Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). The Company's functional currency is the Chinese Renminbi ("RMB"); however the accompanying consolidated financial statements were translated and presented in United States Dollars ("$").

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. However, actual results could differ materially from those results.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to substantial risks from, among other things, intense competition associated with the industry in general, other risks associated with financing, liquidity requirements, rapidly changing customer requirements, limited operating history, foreign currency exchange rates and the volatility of public markets.

Comprehensive Income

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 220 "Reporting Comprehensive Income", previously SFAS No. 130, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances in a full set of general purpose financial statements.

6


ASC 220 defines comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to the statements of stockholders' equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders, including adjustments to minimum pension liabilities, accumulated foreign currency translation, and unrealized gains or losses on marketable securities.

Foreign Currency Transactions

The accounts of the Company's Chinese subsidiaries are maintained in the RMB and the accounts of the U.S. parent company are maintained in the USD. The accounts of the Chinese subsidiaries were translated into USD in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation," (codified in Financial Accounting Standards ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 810) with the RMB as the functional currency for the Chinese subsidiaries. According to SFAS 52, all assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date, stockholders' equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" (codified in FASB ASC Topic 220). Gains and losses resulting from the translations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the income statement.

Translations adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statement of stockholders' equity and were $211,161 and $210,773 as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For Statement of Cash Flows purposes, the Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, including accounts in book overdraft positions, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash with various banks and trust companies located in China. Cash accounts are not insured or otherwise protected. Should any bank or trust company holding cash deposits become insolvent, or if the Company is otherwise unable to withdraw funds, the Company would lose the cash on deposit with that particular bank or trust company.

Accounts Receivable

The Company's policy is to maintain reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Accounts are written off against the allowance when it becomes evident collection will not occur. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $18,911 & $18,908 respectively.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a weighted average basis and includes all expenditures incurred in bringing the goods to the point of sale and putting them in a saleable condition. In assessing the ultimate realization of inventories, the management makes judgments as to future demand requirements compared to current or committed inventory levels. Our reserve requirements generally increase as our projected demand requires; or decrease due to market conditions and product life cycle changes. The Company estimates the demand requirements based on market conditions, forecasts prepared by its customers, sales contracts and orders in hand.

In addition, the Company estimates net realizable value based on intended use, current market value and inventory ageing analyses. The Company writes down inventories for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventories and their estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. Historically, the actual net realizable value has been close to management's estimate.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Gains or losses on disposals are reflected as gain or loss in the year of disposal. All ordinary repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Major renewals and betterments are charged to the property accounts while replacements, maintenance and repairs, which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets, are expensed in the current period. 

Depreciation for financial reporting purposes is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of assets as set out below.

  

Estimated Useful Life


Machinery and equipment

4-6 years

Electronic equipment

4-6 years

Reconstruction of workshop and assembling line

5 years 

Transportation equipment

4-6 years

Capitalized Interest

Interest associated with major development and construction projects is capitalized and included in the cost of the project. When no debt is incurred specifically for a project, interest is capitalized on amounts expended on the project using weighted-average cost of the Company's outstanding borrowings. Capitalization of interest ceases when the project is substantially complete or development activity is suspended for more than a brief period.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

In accordance with ASC 360, "Property, Plant and Equipment", previously SFAS No. 144, the Company reviews the carrying values of long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and other intangible assets, whenever facts and circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If an asset is considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less costs of disposal. For 2009, the Company performed an annual impairment review of long-lived assets and concluded that there was impairment loss for long-term investments of $65,816.

Goodwill

The Company recognizes goodwill for the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the business acquired. ASC 350 "Intangible Assets-Goodwill and Other", previously SFAS No. 142, an impairment test for goodwill is undertaken by the Company at the reporting unit level annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company did not incur any impairment loss for goodwill.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes sales in accordance with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" and SAB No. 104, "Revenue Recognition."

8


The Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria are met:

(i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

(ii) delivery has occurred or services were rendered;

(iii) the price to the customer is fixed or determinable and,

(iv) collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Revenue is not recognized until title and risk of loss is transferred to the customer, which occurs upon delivery of goods, and objective evidence exists that customer acceptance provisions were met.

The Company bases its estimates on historical experience taking into consideration the type of products sold, the type of customer, and the type of specific transaction in each arrangement. Revenues represent the invoiced value of goods, net of value added tax ("VAT").

The Company does not offer promotional payments, customer coupons, rebates or other cash redemption offers to its customers. Deposits or advance payments from customers prior to delivery of goods and passage of title of goods are recorded as advanced from customers.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740 "Income Taxes", previously SFAS No. 109. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the estimated tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts and each year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized when, in management's opinion; it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The provision for income taxes represents current taxes payable net of the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Operating Leases

Leases where substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership of assets remain with the leasing company that do not meet the capitalization criteria of ASC 840 "Leases", previously SFAS No. 13, are accounted for as operating leases. Rental payables under operating leases are recognized as expenses on the straight-line basis over the lease term.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were $0 and $0 respectively.

Earnings Per Share

The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with the provisions of ASC 260 "Earnings Per Share", previously SFAS No. 128. ASC 260 requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such earnings per share. Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common stock using the treasury method.

Common stock equivalents represent the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of the outstanding stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method, at either the beginning of the respective period presented or the date of issuance, whichever is later, and only if the common stock equivalents are considered dilutive based upon the Company's net income (loss) position at the calculation dates.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures", previously FAS 157, adopted January 1, 2008, defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for current receivables and payables qualify as financial instruments. Management concluded the carrying values are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and if applicable, their stated interest rate approximates current rates available. The three levels are defined as follows:

  •   Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

  •   Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

  •   Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

The assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis subject to the disclosure requirements of ASC 820 as of March 31, 2010 are as follows:

Carrying value as
of March 31,

The Company's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, notes receivables, other receivables, accounts payable, notes payable, and convertible notes payable. Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of high rated money market funds at a variety of well-known institutions with original maturities of three months or less. Restricted cash represents time deposits on account to secure short-term bank loans and notes payable. Management estimates that the carrying amounts of the non related party financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.

Concentration of Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade and bills receivables. As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, substantially all of the Company's cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were held by major financial institutions located in the PRC, which management believes are of high credit quality. With respect to trade and notes receivables, the Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer's financial condition. The Company generally does not require collateral for trade receivables and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts of trade receivables.

Notes receivable are undertaken by the banks to honor the payments at maturity and the customers are required to place deposits with the banks equivalent to certain percentage of the notes amount as collateral. These notes receivable can be sold to any third party at a discount before maturity. The Company does not maintain an allowance for notes receivable in the absence of bad debt experience and the payments are undertaken by the banks.

10


Noncontrolling Interests

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 810, previously SFAS No. 160 "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements-reported in equity" for reporting noncontrolling interest ("NCI") in a subsidiary. As a result, the Company reported NCI as a separate component of Stockholders' Equity in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Additionally, the Company reported the portion of net income and comprehensive income (loss) attributed to the Company and NCI separately in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company also included a separate column for NCI in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity. All related disclosures were adjusted accordingly. Prior year amounts associated with NCI in the financial statements and accompanied footnotes have been retrospectively adjusted to conform to the adoption. Noncontrolling interest includes a credit of $567,481 representing its share of increase in additional paid in capital as a result of certain expenses paid by an entity related to the Company's principal shareholder on behalf of the Company.

Statement of Cash Flows

In accordance with ASC 230, "Statement of Cash Flows", previously AFAS No. 95, cash flows from the Company's operations are calculated based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows may not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On February 25, 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09 Subsequent Events Topic 855 "Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements," effective immediately. The amendments in the ASU remove the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose a date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in both issued and revised financial statements. Revised financial statements include financial statements revised as a result of either correction of an error or retrospective application of US GAAP. The FASB believes these amendments remove potential conflicts with the SEC's literature. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

On March 5, 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-11 Derivatives and Hedging Topic 815 "Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives." This ASU clarifies the guidance within the derivative literature that exempts certain credit related features from analysis as potential embedded derivatives requiring separate accounting. The ASU specifies that an embedded credit derivative feature related to the transfer of credit risk that is only in the form of subordination of one financial instrument to another is not subject to bifurcation from a host contract under ASC 815-15-25, Derivatives and Hedging - Embedded Derivatives - Recognition. All other embedded credit derivative features should be analyzed to determine whether their economic characteristics and risks are "clearly and closely related" to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract and whether bifurcation is required. The ASU is effective for the Company on July 1, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this ASU will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 - MERGER AND ACQUISITION

The Company acquired 60% equity in Jiangsu Leimone on November 30, 2007. As of November 30, 2007, the net assets of Jiangsu Leimone were Nil. The purchase consideration was $10,273 which was higher than 60% of total net assets of Jiangsu Leimone and resulted in goodwill of $10,273. On January 1, 2008, the Company invested $4,972,466 (HK$38,800,000) in Jiangsu Leimone. After this investment, the net assets of Jiangsu Leimone were $4,976,051 and the Company owned 80% of Jiangsu Leimone. The fair value of the 80% of equity interest of Jiangsu Leimone Electronic Co., Ltd on January 1, 2008 was $3,981,085. The agreed purchase consideration was $4,972,466 (HK$38,800,000) which was higher than 80% of total net assets of Jiangsu Leimone and resulted in goodwill of $991,381. The Company acquired the remaining 20% of equity of Jiangsu Leimone on November 30, 2008. As of November 30, 2008, the net assets of Jiangsu Leimone were $5,001,783 and therefore 20% of total assets of Jiangsu Leimone were $1,000,357. The agreed purchase consideration was $101,760 which was lower than 20% of total net assets of Jiangsu Leimone and resulted in negative goodwill of $898,597. Therefore, the total goodwill resulting from the acquisition of Jiangsu Leimone was $103,057. As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, goodwill amounted to $103,057 and $103,057 respectively.

NOTE 20 - OPERATING RISK

  1. Industry risk
  2. The industry in which we compete is a rapidly evolving, highly competitive and fragmented market driven by consumer preferences and quickly evolving technology. Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced gross margin and loss of market share. Failure to compete successfully against current or future competitors could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

  3. Exchange risk
  4. The Company can not guarantee the Renminbi and US dollars exchange rate will remain steady, therefore the Company could post the same profit for two comparable periods and post higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of Renminbi and US dollars. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in the political and economic environments without notice.

  5. Political risk
  6. Currently, PRC is in a period of growth and is openly promoting business development in order to bring more business into PRC. Additionally PRC currently allows a Chinese corporation to be owned by a United States corporation. If the laws or regulations relating to ownership of a Chinese corporation are changed by the PRC government, the Company's ability to operate the PRC subsidiaries could be affected.

  7. Interest risk

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk arising from short-term variable rate borrowings from time to time. The Company's future interest expense will fluctuate in line with any change in borrowing rates. The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 and believes its exposure to interest rate risk is not material.

NOTE 21 - Commitment

Business Overview

Gold Lion was founded by Mr. Gu Lei in September 2002 in the British Virgin Islands, and Gu was the sole owner of one issued and outstanding share of common stock. Through a resolution of Gold Lion on November 26, 2008, Gold Lion issued 705 shares to Gu and 294 shares to Mr. Du Songtao, resulting in a total of 1,000 issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Pursuant to a pledge agreement dated November 26, 2008, Du pledged his 294 shares to Mr. Cao Wei, with all rights to such shares including voting rights. Consequently, Gu and Cao jointly control 100% of Gold Lion.

On August 2, 2007, Gu founded Profit Harvest in Hong Kong, and in December 2008, 100% ownership of Profit Harvest was transferred to Gold Lion. Profit Harvest is engaged in sale of mobile phone products and components to retailers and other wholesalers.

Pursuant to a capital injection agreement (the "Agreement") by and among Tianjin Communication and Broadcasting Group Co., Ltd. ("TCBGCL"), TCBGCL Labour Union, Hebei Leimone Science and Technology Co., Ltd.("Hebei Leimone"), Tianjin 712 Communication and Broadcasting Co., Ltd.("712"), Beijing Depu Investment Co., Ltd. and other natural person shareholders on May 8, 2007 and a resolution of the shareholder's meeting on June 30, 2007, Hebei Leimone, a company controlled by Gu, acquired 25.13% of TCB Digital from TCBGCL Labour Union and various natural person shareholders for cash consideration of RMB9,000,000. Pursuant to this Agreement, Hebei Leimone and Beijing Depu Investment Co., Ltd., a company controlled by Cao, were to invest additional RMB15,928,700 and RMB10,377,600 respectively in TCB Digital, bringing the total investment from Hebei Leimone and Beijing Depu Investment Co., Ltd to $4,679,111 (RMB35,306,300). After this additional investment was made as of June 30, 2007, Hebei Leimone and Beijing Depu held 36.03% and 15% equity interests respectively of TCB Digital, a total of 51.03% ownership in TCB Digital. Pursuant to an agreement dated June 30, 2007, Cao irrevocably pledged his 15% equity interest in TCB Digital to Gu in exchange for a 29.4% stake in Gu's company.  TCB Digital is mainly engaged in research & development, processing, manufacturing, servicing and marketing of mobile handsets, electronic products and communication equipment.

On November 30, 2007, Gold Lion and GD Industrial Company signed a share transfer agreement pursuant to which GD Industrial Company transferred 60% equity of Nantong Zong Yi Kechuang Digital Camera Technology Co., Ltd. for $10,273 to Gold Lion. In July 2008, the company's name was changed to Jiangsu Leimone Electronic Co., Ltd., or Jiangsu Leimone. In January 2008, Gold Lion invested $5,074,226 (HK$38,800,000) in Jiangsu Leimone to increase Gold Lion's ownership in Jiangsu Leimone to 80%. Pursuant to the share transfer agreement by and between Gold Lion and Nantong Zong Yi Investment Co., Ltd. dated November 26, 2008, Gold Lion acquired the remaining 20% equity interest of Jiangsu Leimone from Nantong Zong Yi Investment Co., Ltd. for cash consideration of $103,214 (HK$800,000). After this transaction, Gold Lion obtained 100% ownership of Jiangsu Leimone. Jiangsu Leimone is engaged in the R&D and production of electronic assemblies, 3G mobile handsets, wireless communication modules, GPS receivers and computer software.

Increased ownership in TCB Digital

Mr. Gu exercised an option to acquire an additional 28.97% of TCB Digital. Under the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement dated January 28, 2009, amended on May 12, 2009, and approved by our shareholders on September 8, 2009, at such time as Mr. Gu completes his acquisition of 28.97% of TCB Digital, Mr. Gu has the option to transfer this stake in TCB Digital for an aggregate of 2,402,576 shares of Zoom common stock. As of March 31, 2010, Mr. Gu exercised his option to acquire the addition 28.97% of TCB Digital and exchanged this ownership in TCB Digital for 2,402,576 shares on our common stock, which increased the Company's ownership of TCB Digital from 51.03% to 80%.

Plan of Operation

During the next twelve months, Zoom, together with Gold Lion and its subsidiaries, expects to take the following steps in connection with the development of our business and the implementation of our plan of operations:

  • Zoom intends to continue to manufacturer and deliver its products and services in China, including EMS business for OEM customers and development of our brand of "Leimone" phones;

  • Zoom will gradually increase its investment in the 2.5G-3G mobile communications business;

  • Zoom will continue to customize mobile phones in cooperation with the main mobile operators in China; and

  • Zoom will continue to build our export business.

Planned Acquisition of Leimone Culture

On January 26, 2010, the Company announced its intent to acquire a Chinese handset mobile video and value-added service company, Beijing Leimone Shengtong Culture Development Company ("Leimone Culture"). Lei Gu, our Chairman, CEO and largest shareholder, owns approximately seventy percent of Leimone Culture. Founded in 2004, Leimone Culture was granted licenses by the State Administration of Radio Film and Television ("SARFT") to provide web-based broadcast audiovisual programs and to produce radio and television content for mobile devices. Leimone Culture has been a provider of mobile video services to China Mobile since 2005 and China Unicom since 2007.

On March 25, 2010, Leimone Culture signed an agreement with China Central Television (CCTV), the major state television broadcaster in China, with 19 channels broadcasting to more than one billion viewers. Under the agreement, Leimone Culture will provide approved media content to CCTV's mobile users and will bundle CCTV.com's mobile TV access link onto Zoom's branded "Leimone" mobile phones and onto Zoom Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) customers' phones.

The Company has the option of purchasing Mr. Gu's shares in Leimone Culture and on December 1, 2009, Zoom's Board of Directors approved to pursue the acquisition of 100% of Leimone Culture in the event the minority shareholders of Leimone Culture decides to sell their interests. Upon further due diligence and negotiation, terms of the acquisition are expected to be finalized by mid-year 2010.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of Gold Lion's consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP") requires it to make estimates and judgments that affect its reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Gold Lion based its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from current expectations and assumptions. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting Gold Lion's consolidated financial statements; Gold Lion believes the following critical accounting policies involve the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments: allowance for doubtful accounts; income taxes; asset impairment.

28


Revenue Recognition

In accordance with US GAAP, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed, and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Noted below are brief descriptions of the product or service revenues that Gold Lion recognizes in the financial statements contained herein.

Sale of goods

Revenue is recognized at the date of shipment to customers when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of Gold Lion exists and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as advances from customers.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

Gold Lion maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to reduce amounts to their estimated realizable value. A considerable amount of judgment is required when Gold Lion assesses the realization of accounts receivables, including assessing the probability of collection and the current credit-worthiness of each customer. If the financial condition of customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, an additional provision for doubtful accounts could be required. Gold Lion initially records a provision for doubtful accounts based on its historical experience, and then adjusts this provision at the end of each reporting period based on a detailed assessment of its accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts. In estimating the provision for doubtful accounts, Gold Lion considers: (i) the aging of the accounts receivable; (ii) trends within and ratios involving the age of the accounts receivable; (iii) the customer mix in each of the aging categories and the nature of the receivable; (iv) its historical provision for doubtful accounts; (v) the credit worthiness of the customer; and (vi) the economic conditions of the customer's industry as well as general economic conditions, among other factors.

Income taxes

Gold Lion accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes". Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the estimated tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts and each year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized when, in management's opinion; it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The provision for income taxes represents current taxes payable net of the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Gold Lion adopted FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Tax Positions.

Asset Impairment

Gold Lion periodically evaluates the carrying value of other long-lived assets, including, but not limited to, property and equipment and intangible assets, when events and circumstances warrant such a review. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flows from such asset is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset. Fair value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Significant estimates are utilized to calculate expected future cash flows utilized in impairment analyses. Gold Lion also utilizes judgment to determine other factors within fair value analyses, including the applicable discount rate. The Company's long-term investment of $65,816 in Tianjin Tong Guang Microelectronics Co., Ltd. ("TTGM") was entirely impaired as of December 31, 2009.

Results of Operations for the Quarter ended March 31, 2010

Revenues

Our revenues were $50,979,269 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, an increase of 77% or $22,162,712 compared to $28,816,557 in the corresponding period in 2009. The increase of revenues in 2010 as compared to 2009 was mainly due to increase in orders from our domestic EMS customers and also increase in the sales of our own branded phones. In the first quarter of 2010, we sold a total of 71,069 units of our Leimone brand phones of which 6,244 were 3G handsets. Revenues from sales of our own branded products in the first quarter of 2010 totaled $4.63 million while that for the same period a year ago was insignificant.

29


Cost of sales

For the first quarter of 2010, our cost of sales was $46,801,015 or 91.8% of revenues, while cost of sales for the corresponding period in 2009 was $26,131,951 or 90.7% of revenues. Our competitive pricing for the contract manufacturing was instrumental in capturing significantly increased business activities.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the first quarter of 2010 rose 56% to $4,178,254 compared to $2,684,606 for the 2009 quarter. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues for the first quarter of 2010 was 8.2%, compared to 9.3% for the 2009 quarter and 6.0% for the whole year of 2009.  The reasons for the increase in gross margins for the first quarter of 2010 over that for the year 2009 are: a) the demand for EMS services has increased from last year and pricing of our processing fess has been relaxed, and b) sales of our own branded products generally carry a higher margin than the EMS activities.

Selling, general and administrative expenses

Sales and marketing expenses mainly represent salaries of sales personnel, and marketing and transportation costs; and this was $44,076 for the first quarter in 2010 compared to $1,048,323 for the 2009 period.  This expense has been relative stable compared to the 4th quarter of 2009. The higher amount in the first quarter of 2009 was a result of the gearing up of Profit Harvest's in its preparation to make sales in Hong Kong and the southern cities of China.

General and administrative expenses primarily consisted of compensation for administrative personnel, depreciation, travel expenses, rental, materials expenses related to ordinary administration, and fees for professional services; and this was $904,641 for the first quarter of 2010 compared to $787,482 for the same 2009 period.

Non-cash compensation charges include stock option charges based on a Black-Scholes pricing model and values of common stock issued to consultants for services. Such charges for the first quarter of 2010 and 2009 were $369,659 and $0, respectively.

For the first quarter of 2010, total operating expenses were $1,318,376 or 2.6% of revenues, which was a decrease of $517,429 from $1,835,805 and a reduction from 6.4% of revenues for the 2009 period. This was a result of management's continued emphasis on cost control and operational efficiency.

Research and development expense

We did not record R&D expenditures in the first quarter of 2010 as we either built in such charges to our customers or absorbed such costs into our general and administration expenses.

Other income/(expenses)-net

The Company's other expenses-net was $272,447 for the first quarter of 2010, was mainly comprised of interest expense of $257,626.  For the corresponding 2009 period, other income-net was $175,958 mainly included interest expense of $320,907 offset by interest income of $154,170 and a non-recurring debt relief of $425,038.

Net income

For the quarter ended March 31, 2010, the Company's net income from operations was $1,895,702 or an increase of $1,004,370 or 113% compared to $891,332 for the 2009 period. Net margins, the ratio of net income over revenues, for the first quarter of 2010 and 2009 were 3.8% and 3.1% respectively.

Other comprehensive income

For the first quarter of 2010, the Company's other comprehensive income was $388 compared to $16,660 for the 2009 period. Other comprehensive income in 2010 and 2009 resulted from foreign currency exchange changes particularly the Renminbi against the U.S. dollar. This gain for the first quarter of 2010 can result in a loss in future periods if the trend in the exchange rate of the Reminbi to the U.S. dollar reverses.

30


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Zoom generally finances its operations from cash flow generated internally, interest-free credit lines in the form of banker acceptances and short-term loans from domestic banks. As of March 31, 2010, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $334,784. This represented a decrease of $1,137,516 from $1,472,300 as of December 31, 2009.

Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $1,147,778 compared to net cash used in operating activities for the 2009 period of $1,455,883. In the first three months of 2010, operational use of funds included an increase in accounts receivable of $1,636,001 and advances made to related parties of $4,472,721 and a decrease in accounts payable of $771,267; while offset by an increase in advances from customers of $2,197,215 and an increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of 470,364.

Net cash used for investing activities was to $994,943 in the first quarter of 2010 which was primarily cash used as deposits in the amount of $980,100 for securing interest free credit facilities such as banker acceptances.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,007,608 in the first quarter of 2010 which included proceeds from short-term loans of $18,124,528, proceeds from notes payable of $1,960,199, receipts from related parties in the amount of $7,629,484. During this period, there was an outflow due to advance to related parties of $3,637,028 and repayment of short-term loans of $13,165,517 and also an outflow of $10,074,820 for repayment of borrowing from related parties.

On going forward basis over the next 12 months, Zoom intends to continue to rely on short-term loans to fund its operational cash needs. The Company may also contemplate one or more equity fundraises for its expansion needs, provided that conditions of the capital market allow for financing at acceptable terms.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2010, Zoom had no off balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Controls and Procedures

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

The Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, including, without limitation, that such information is accumulated and communicated to Company management, including the Company's principal executive and financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls. In designing and evaluating the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, Company management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company's principal executive and financial officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) as of December 31, 2009, and based on this evaluation, the Company's principal executive and financial officers have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that material information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported by management of the Company on a timely basis in order to comply with the Company's disclosure obligations under the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The Company's principal executive and financial officers conclusion regarding the Company's disclosure controls and procedures is based solely on management's conclusion that the Company's internal control over financial reporting are ineffective as identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 continues to be ineffective as

of March 31, 2010. In connection with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on management's identification of the material weaknesses as follows:

  • Insufficient Human Resources. There is a lack of employees at our operating subsidiaries, namely, TCB Digital, Jiangsu Leimone, and Profit Harvest who have adequate knowledge of US GAAP principles. Furthermore, the Company's Chief Financial Officer is the only person at the parent level with an appropriate knowledge experience and training in the selection, application and implementation of US GAAP as it relates to complex transactions and financial reporting requirements.

  • Lack of Segregation of Duties. There is a lack of segregation of duties at the Company due because only one employee, the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, is charged with the responsibilities of general administrative and financial matters.

Management will continue to evaluate the material weaknesses identified above and have already engaged Sarbanes Oxley compliance consultants to identify the areas of weakness and to suggest remedial measures.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There were no significant changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, such control.
