than statements of historical fact contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K,
including statements regarding future events, our future financial performance,

forward-looking statements by terminology including “anticipates,” “believes,”
“can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,”
“potential,” “predicts,” “should,” or “will” or the negative of these terms or
other comparable terminology. Although we do not make forward looking

guarantee their accuracy. These statements are only predictions and
involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the
risks outlined under “Risk Factors” or elsewhere in this Current Report on Form

statements. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly
changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time and it is
not possible for us to predict all risk factors, nor can we address the impact
of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination
of factors, may cause our actual results to differ materially from those
contained in any forward-looking statements.
We have
based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and
projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect
our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short term
and long term business operations, and financial needs. These
forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that
could cause our actual results to differ materially from those reflected in the
forward looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to
such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this
Current Report on Form 8-K, and in particular, the risks discussed below and
under the heading “Risk Factors” and those discussed in other documents we file
with the Securities and Exchange Commission that are incorporated into this

designing, manufacturing and selling (1) electronic furniture, (2) digital/
multimedia speakers, and (3) LCD/LED television under its own products brand

International
Market
Electronic
Furniture: fAudio gaming chair grows very fast in the electronic
furniture industry. It targets the audio-visual entertainment, especially the
video game markets. The audio gaming chair was recognized as one of the best
peripherals for video game by CNN in 2008. In conformity with the need for
innovation which is the trend in this industry, the new furniture audios
launched by AIV in 2005incorporate the Video Gaming Chair with Built-in Speakers
and Vibration, as well as the Leisure Furniture with Built-in Audio/ Video
System. The new product became popular after its debut in the European and the
U.S. markets in 2006. The product has also developed a market in China,
Australia and Southeast Asia countries. There are still many potential markets
waiting to be explored.
Multimedia/
Digital Speakers: At present, the global speakers market is dominated by a
certain number of manufacturers with large production capacity and leading
technologies. These manufacturers mainly operate in the United States, Japan and
European countries.
LED/LCD
Television: According to a conservative estimation by Display Bank, the number
of LEDs to be sold globally each year will be more than 15 million units in
2010, and 25 million and 50 million in 2011 and 2012 respectively.
Chinese Domestic
Market
Furniture
audios: The video game especially the online video game industry started late in
China but it is growing rapidly. Since 2000, its annual growth rate has exceeded
50%. Nowadays, more and more video game companies are entering into the Chinese
market with many large companies also establishing branch offices or studios in
China. Due to the huge potential of the industry, our gaming chair has a great
market prospect.
Multimedia/
Digital Speakers: China is the country with the largest production and
distribution of multimedia/ digital speakers in the world. The Pearl River Delta
region of China is the location of speaker manufacturers which produce 70%of the
world’s speakers. Most of these manufacturers are original equipment
manufacturers with no brands of their own and depend solely on exports. The
co-existence of genuine and counterfeit products reflects the current real
situation of the Chinese speakers industry. However, the speakers market is
relatively stable and also promising. The innovation of both the products and
business model are the key factors to success for the domestic speaker
manufacturers.
LED/LCD
Television: According to a survey by the Consumption Electronic Products
Investigation Office of the China Electronic Chamber of Commerce, 75% of the
domestic television consumers pay attention to LED products and 34% of them have
plans to purchase LED products in 2010.
Raw
Materials and Suppliers

components, Wooden Boxes, Modules, Frames, AC converters and other basic
components are our main raw materials to produce electronic furniture,
multimedia/ digital speakers, and LED/LCD televisions. The Company purchases all
of its other raw materials and component parts from a variety of sources, none
of which is believed by the Company to be a dominant supplier. Alternative
sources of supply are believed to be available to the Company. Our

Market
Shares and Competitors
We
believe that our products do not compete directly with any other company with
respect to its entire range of products. However, our products compete with some
branded products within their product category as well as privately labeled
products sold by retailers, including some of our OEM/ ODM
customers.
Our
electronic furniture competes with Pyramat, Actona and other smaller
manufacturers. Our products own 60% of the international market
shares since 2006. In varying degrees, depending on the product category
involved, we compete on the basis of style, price, quality, comfort and brand
name prestige and recognition, among other considerations.
Our
multimedia/digital speakers and LED/ LCD television products compete with
numerous international branded products like Sony, Panasonic, Samsung, Phillips
and LG, etc. Due to the lower costs and labor expenses in Asia Pacific regions,
many international speaker manufacturers are establishing plants in Asia. This
allows large manufacturers to compete with local manufacturers in pricing. Right
now, the Company has a global market share of only about 0.3% on
multimedia/digital speaker products. The Company did not start the production of
LED/LCD television until late April, 2010, and the general availability of
contract manufacturers also allows the ease of access by new comers. Many of our
competitors are larger in scale, have been in existence for a longer period of
time, have achieved greater recognition for their brand names, have captured
greater market shares and/or have substantially greater financial, distribution,
marketing and other resources than we do. We are not sure whether we can compete
against them right now or in the future, or that competitive pressures will have
a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
Business
Model
The
Company conducts its quality management in strict compliance with ISO9001
international quality management standard. The Company believes that quality,

RISK
FACTORS
You
should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the
other information included in this report before making an investment decision
with regard to our securities. The statements contained in or
incorporated herein that are not historic facts are forward-looking statements
that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those set forth in or implied by forward-looking
statements. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business,
financial condition or results of operations could be harmed. In that case, you
may lose all or part of your investment.
Risks
Relating to Our Business
The
effects of the recent global economic slowdown may continue to have a negative
impact on our business, results of operations or financial
condition.
The
recent global economic slowdown has caused disruptions and extreme volatility in
global financial markets, increased rates of default and bankruptcy, and
declining consumer and business confidence, which has led to decreased levels of
consumer spending. These macroeconomic developments have and could continue to
negatively impact our business, which depends on the general economic
environment and levels of consumer spending in the PRC and other parts of the
world that affect not only the ultimate consumer, but also retailers, who are
our primary direct customers. As a result, we may not be able to maintain or
increase our sales to existing customers, make sales to new customers, or
maintain or improve our earnings from operations as a percentage of net sales.
If the global economic slowdown continues for a significant period or continues
to worsen, our results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows could
be materially adversely affected.
Our
results of operations are cyclical and could be adversely affected by
fluctuations in the raw material.
We are
largely dependent on the cost and supply of raw materials such as electronic
accessories and the selling price of our products, which are determined by
constantly changing and volatile market forces of supply and demand as well as
other factors over which we have little or no control. These other factors
include:
|
•
|
|
competing
demand for the raw materials,
|
|
•
|
|
environmental
and conservation regulations, and
|
We cannot
assure you that all or part of any increased costs experienced by us from time
to time can be passed along to consumers of our products, in a timely manner or
at all.
Substantially
all of our business, assets and operations are located in the PRC.
Substantially
all of our business, assets and operations are located in PRC. The economy of
PRC differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects. The
economy of PRC has been transitioning from a planned economy to a
market-oriented economy. Although in recent years the PRC government has
implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic
reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets and the
establishment of sound corporate governance in business enterprises, a
substantial portion of productive assets in PRC is still owned by the PRC
government. In addition, the PRC government continues to play a significant role
in regulating industry by imposing industrial policies. It also exercises
significant control over PRC’s economic growth through the allocation of
resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations,
setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular
industries or companies. Some of these measures benefit the overall economy of
PRC, but may have a negative effect on us.
Our
management has no experience in managing and operating a public company. Any
failure to comply or adequately comply with federal securities laws, rules or
regulations could subject us to fines or regulatory actions, which may
materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial
condition.
Our
current management has no experience managing and operating a public company and
relies in many instances on the professional experience and advice of third
parties including its attorneys and accountants. Failure to comply or adequately
comply with any laws, rules, or regulations applicable to our business may
result in fines or regulatory actions, which may materially adversely affect our
business, results of operation, or financial condition and could result in
delays in achieving the development of an active and liquid trading market for
our stock.
Our
business and the success of our products could be harmed if we are unable to
maintain our brand image.
Our
success to date has been due in large part to the strength of the AIV brand, and
to a lesser degree, the reputation of our brand. If we are unable to timely and
appropriately respond to changing consumer demand, our brand name and brand
image may be impaired. Even if we react appropriately to changes in consumer
preferences, consumers may consider our brand image to be outdated and affect
our business.
We
need to manage growth in operations to maximize our potential growth and achieve
our expected revenues and our failure to manage growth will cause a disruption
of our operations resulting in the failure to generate revenue at levels we
expect.
In order
to maximize potential growth in our current and potential markets, we believe
that we must expand our producing operations. This expansion will place a
significant strain on our management and our operational, accounting, and
information systems. We expect that we will need to continue to improve our
financial controls, operating procedures, and management information systems. We
will also need to effectively train, motivate, and manage our employees. Our
failure to manage our growth could disrupt our operations and ultimately prevent
us from generating the revenues we expect.
We
cannot assure you that our growth strategy will be successful which may result
in a negative impact on our growth, financial condition, results of operations
and cash flow.
One of
our strategies is to establish our own flagship stores in main cities. However,
many obstacles to entering such new markets exist including, but not limited to,
established companies in such existing markets in the PRC. We cannot, therefore,
assure you that we will be able to successfully overcome such obstacles and
establish our products in any additional markets. Our inability to implement
this organic growth strategy successfully may have a negative impact on our
growth, future financial condition, results of operations or cash
flows.
If
we need additional capital to fund our growing operations, we may not be able to
obtain sufficient capital and may be forced to limit the scope of our
operations.
If
adequate additional financing is not available on reasonable terms, we may not
be able to expand our production lines and we would have to modify our business
plans accordingly. There is no assurance that additional financing will be
available to us.
In
connection with our growth strategies, we may experience increased capital needs
and accordingly, we may not have sufficient capital to fund our future
operations without additional capital investments. Our capital needs will depend
on numerous factors, including (i) our profitability; (ii) the release of
competitive products by our competition; (iii) the level of our investment in
research and development; and (iv) the amount of our capital expenditures,
including acquisitions. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain
capital in the future to meet our needs.
In recent
years, the securities markets in the United States have experienced a high level
of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many
companies have experienced wide fluctuations that have not necessarily been
related to the operations, performances, underlying asset values or prospects of
such companies. For these reasons, our securities can also be expected to be
subject to volatility resulting from purely market forces over which we will
have no control. If we need additional funding we will, most likely, seek such
funding in the United States (although we may be able to obtain funding in the
PRC) and the market fluctuations affect on our stock price could limit our
ability to obtain equity financing.
If we
cannot obtain additional funding, we may be required to: (i) limit our
expansion; (ii) limit our marketing efforts; and (iii) decrease or eliminate
capital expenditures. Such reductions could materially adversely affect our
business and our ability to compete.
Even if
we do find a source of additional capital, we may not be able to negotiate terms
and conditions for receiving the additional capital that are favorable to us.
Any future capital investments could dilute or otherwise materially and
adversely affect the holdings or rights of our existing shareholders. In
addition, new equity or convertible debt securities issued by us to obtain
financing could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to the units. We
cannot give you any assurance that any additional financing will be available to
us, or if available, will be on terms favorable to us.
Need
for additional employees.
The
Company’s future success also depends upon its continuing ability to attract and
retain highly qualified personnel. Expansion of the Company’s business and the
management and operation of the Company will require additional managers and
employees with industry experience, and the success of the Company will be
highly dependent on the Company’s ability to attract and retain skilled
management personnel and other employees. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to attract or retain highly qualified personnel.
Competition for skilled personnel in the construction industry is significant.
This competition may make it more difficult and expensive to attract, hire and
retain qualified managers and employees.
Our
ability to compete could be jeopardized ff we are unable to protect our
intellectual property rights or if we are sued for intellectual property
infringement.
We
believe that our product brand and trademark, AIV, and other proprietary rights
are important to our success and our competitive position. We use trademarks on
some of our products and believe that having distinctive marks that are readily
identifiable is an important factor in creating a market for our goods, in
identifying us and in distinguishing our goods from the goods of others. We
consider our trademarks to be among our most valuable assets. We believe that
our trademarks are generally sufficient to permit us to carry on our business as
presently conducted. While we vigorously protect our trademarks against
infringement, we cannot assure you that we will be able to secure patents or
trademark protection for our intellectual property in the future or that
protection will be adequate for future products.
In
addition, the laws of foreign countries where we source and distribute our
products may not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as do
the laws of the PRC. We cannot assure you that the actions we have taken to
establish and protect our trademarks and other intellectual property rights
outside the PRC will be adequate to prevent imitation of our products by others
or, if necessary, successfully challenge another party’s counterfeit products or
products that otherwise infringe on our intellectual property rights on the
basis of trademark infringement. Continued sales of these products could
adversely affect our sales and our brand and result in the shift of consumer
preference away from our products. We may face significant expenses and
liability in connection with the protection of our intellectual property rights
outside the PRC, and if we are unable to successfully protect our rights or
resolve intellectual property conflicts with others, our business or financial
condition could be adversely affected.
Our
failure to comply with increasingly stringent environmental regulations and
related litigation could result in significant penalties, damages and adverse
publicity for our business.
In recent
years, the government of China has become increasingly concerned with the
degradation of China’s environment that has accompanied the country’s rapid
economic growth. In the future, we expect that our operations and
properties will be subject to extensive and increasingly stringent laws and
regulations pertaining to, among other things, the discharge of materials into
the environment and the handling and disposition of wastes (including solid and
hazardous wastes) or otherwise relating to protection of the environment.
Failure to comply with any laws and regulations and future changes to them may
result in significant consequences to us, including civil and criminal
penalties, liability for damages and negative publicity. We cannot
assure you that additional environmental issues will not require currently
unanticipated investigations, assessments or expenditures, or that requirements
applicable to us will not be altered in ways that will require us to incur
significant additional costs.
We
will incur significant costs to ensure compliance with United States corporate
governance and accounting requirements.
We will
incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting
requirements, costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance
requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and
other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect all
of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal
and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming
and costly. We also expect that these applicable rules and regulations may make
it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer
liability insurance and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and
coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar
coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain
qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors or as executive
officers. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect
to these newly applicable rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of
additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.
We
may not be able to meet the accelerated filing and internal control reporting
requirements imposed by the Securities and Exchange Commission resulting in a
possible decline in the price of our common stock and our inability to obtain
future financing.
As
directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as amended by SEC Release No.
33-8934 on June 26, 2008, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules
requiring each public company to include a report of management on the company’s
internal controls over financial reporting in its annual reports. In
addition, the independent registered public accounting firm auditing a company’s
financial statements must also attest to and report on management’s assessment
of the effectiveness of the company’s internal controls over financial reporting
as well as the operating effectiveness of the company’s internal controls.
Commencing with its annual report for the year ending December 31, 2010, we will
be required to include a report of management on its internal control over
financial reporting. The internal control report must include a
statement
·
|
Of
management’s responsibility for establishing and maintaining adequate
internal control over its financial
reporting;
|
·
|
Of
management’s assessment of the effectiveness of its internal control over
financial reporting as of year end;
and
|
·
|
Of
the framework used by management to evaluate the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial
reporting.
|
Furthermore,
in the following year, our independent registered public accounting
firm is required to file its attestation report separately on our
internal control over financial reporting on whether it believes that we have
maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial
reporting.
While we
expect to expend significant resources in developing the necessary documentation
and testing procedures required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, there
is a risk that we may not be able to comply timely with all of the requirements
imposed by this rule. In the event that we are unable to receive a
positive attestation from our independent registered public accounting firm with
respect to our internal controls, investors and others may lose confidence in
the reliability of our financial statements and our stock price and ability to
obtain equity or debt financing as needed could suffer.
In
addition, in the event that our independent registered public accounting firm is
unable to rely on our internal controls in connection with its audit of our
financial statements, and in the further event that it is unable to devise
alternative procedures in order to satisfy itself as to the material accuracy of
our financial statements and related disclosures, it is possible that we would
be unable to file our Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, which could also adversely affect the market price of our
securities and our ability to secure additional financing as
needed.
The
transaction involves a reverse merger of a foreign company into a domestic shell
company, so that there is no history of compliance with United States securities
laws and accounting rules.
In order
to be able to comply with United States securities
laws, AIVtech prepared its financial statements for the first time
under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and recently had its initial
audit of its financial statements in accordance with Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). As the Company does not
have a long term familiarity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles, it may be more difficult for it to comply on a timely basis with SEC
reporting requirements than a comparable domestic company.
The
loss of the services of our key employees, particularly the services rendered by
JinLin Guo, our CEO and Chairman and YiLin Shi, our CFO and director, could harm
our business.
Our
success depends to a significant degree on the services rendered to us by our
key employees. If we fail to attract, train and retain sufficient
numbers of these qualified people, our prospects, business, financial condition
and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected. In
particular, we are heavily dependent on the continued services of JinLin Guo,
our CEO and Chairman and YiLin Shi, our CFO and director. The loss of any key
employees, including members of our senior management team, and our inability to
attract highly skilled personnel with sufficient experience in our industry
could harm our business.
Risks
Relating to the People's Republic of China
Certain
political and economic considerations relating to the PRC could adversely affect
our company.
The PRC
is transitioning from a planned economy to a market economy. While the PRC
government has pursued economic reforms since its adoption of the open-door
policy in 1978, a large portion of the PRC economy is still operating under
five-year plans and annual state plans. Through these plans and other economic
measures, such as control on foreign exchange, taxation and restrictions on
foreign participation in the domestic market of various industries, the PRC
government exerts considerable direct and indirect influence on the economy.
Many of the economic reforms carried out by the PRC government are unprecedented
or experimental, and are expected to be refined and improved. Other political,
economic and social factors can also lead to further readjustment of such
reforms. This refining and readjustment process may not necessarily have a
positive effect on our operations or future business development. Our operating
results may be adversely affected by changes in the PRC’s economic and social
conditions as well as by changes in the policies of the PRC government, such as
changes in laws and regulations (or the official interpretation thereof),
measures which may be introduced to control inflation, changes in the interest
rate or method of taxation, and the imposition of restrictions on currency
conversion in addition to those described below.
The
recent nature and uncertain application of many PRC laws applicable to us create
an uncertain environment for business operations and they could have a negative
effect on us.
The PRC
legal system is a civil law system. Unlike the common law system, the civil law
system is based on written statutes in which decided legal cases have little
value as precedents. In 1979, the PRC began to promulgate a comprehensive system
of laws and has since introduced many laws and regulations to provide general
guidance on economic and business practices in the PRC and to regulate foreign
investment. Progress has been made in the promulgation of laws and regulations
dealing with economic matters such as corporate organization and governance,
foreign investment, commerce, taxation and trade. The promulgation of new laws,
changes of existing laws and the abrogation of local regulations by national
laws could have a negative impact on our business and business
prospects.
Currency
conversion could adversely affect our financial condition.
The PRC
government imposes control over the conversion of Renminbi into foreign
currencies. Under the current unified floating exchange rate system, the
People’s Bank of China publishes an exchange rate, which we refer to as the PBOC
exchange rate, based on the previous day’s dealings in the inter-bank foreign
exchange market. Financial institutions authorized to deal in foreign currency
may enter into foreign exchange transactions at exchange rates within an
authorized range above or below the PBOC exchange rate according to market
conditions.
Pursuant
to the Foreign Exchange Control Regulations of the PRC issued by the State
Council which came into effect on April 1, 1996, and the Regulations on the
Administration of Foreign Exchange Settlement, Sale and Payment of the PRC which
came into effect on July 1, 1996, regarding foreign exchange control, conversion
of Renminbi into foreign exchange by Foreign Investment Enterprises, or FIEs,
for use on current account items, including the distribution of dividends and
profits to foreign investors, is permissible. FIEs are permitted to convert
their after-tax dividends and profits to foreign exchange and remit such foreign
exchange to their foreign exchange bank accounts in the PRC. Conversion of
Renminbi into foreign currencies for capital account items, including direct
investment, loans, and security investment, is still under certain restrictions.
On January 14, 1997, the State Council amended the Foreign Exchange Control
Regulations and added, among other things, an important provision, which
provides that the PRC government shall not impose restrictions on recurring
international payments and transfers under current account items.
Enterprises
in the PRC (including FIEs) which require foreign exchange for transactions
relating to current account items, may, without approval of the State
Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, effect payment from their foreign
exchange account or convert and pay at the designated foreign exchange banks by
providing valid receipts and proofs.
Convertibility
of foreign exchange in respect of capital account items, such as direct
investment and capital contribution, is still subject to certain restrictions,
and prior approval from the SAFE or its relevant branches must be
sought.
Furthermore,
the Renminbi is not freely convertible into foreign currencies nor can it be
freely remitted abroad. Under the PRC’s Foreign Exchange Control Regulations and
the Administration of Settlement, Sales and Payment of Foreign Exchange
Regulations, Foreign Invested Enterprises are permitted either to repatriate or
distribute its profits or dividends in foreign currencies out of its foreign
exchange accounts, or exchange Renminbi for foreign currencies through banks
authorized to conduct foreign exchange business. The conversion of Renminbi into
foreign exchange by Foreign Invested Enterprises for recurring items, including
the distribution of dividends to foreign investors, is permissible. The
conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies for capital items, such as direct
investment, loans and security investment, is subject, however, to more
stringent controls.
Exchange
rate volatility could adversely affect our financial condition.
Since
1994, the exchange rate for Renminbi against the United States dollar has
remained relatively stable, most of the time in the region of approximately
RMB8.28 to $1.00. However, in 2005, the Chinese government announced that it
would begin pegging the exchange rate of the Chinese Renminbi against a number
of currencies, rather than just the U.S. dollar and, the exchange rate for the
Renminbi against the U.S. dollar became RMB8.02 to $1.00. If we decide to
convert Chinese Renminbi into United States dollars for other business purposes
and the United States dollar appreciates against this currency, the United
States dollar equivalent of the Chinese Renminbi we convert would be reduced.
There can be no assurance that future movements in the exchange rate of Renminbi
and other currencies will not have an adverse effect on our financial
condition.
Since
our assets are located in the PRC, any dividends of proceeds from liquidation
are subject to the approval of the relevant Chinese government
agencies.
Our
operating assets are located inside the PRC. Under the laws governing Foreign
Invested Enterprises in the PRC, dividend distribution and liquidation are
allowed but subject to special procedures under the relevant laws and rules. Any
dividend payment will be subject to the decision of the board of directors and
subject to foreign exchange rules governing such repatriation. Any liquidation
is subject to the relevant government agency’s approval and supervision as well
as the foreign exchange control. This may generate additional risk for our
investors in case of dividend payment and liquidation.
It
may be difficult to affect service of process and enforcement of legal judgments
upon our company and our officers and directors because they reside outside the
United States.
As our
operations are presently based in the PRC and our director and officer resides
in the PRC, service of process on our company and such director and officer may
be difficult to effect within the United States. Also, our main assets are
located in the PRC and any judgment obtained in the United States against us may
not be enforceable outside the United States.
Due
to various restrictions under PRC laws on the distribution of dividends by our
PRC Operating Companies, we may not be able to pay dividends to our
stockholders.
The
Wholly-Foreign Owned Enterprise Law (1986), as amended and The Wholly-Foreign
Owned Enterprise Law Implementing Rules (1990), as amended and the Company Law
of the PRC (2006) contain the principal regulations governing dividend
distributions by wholly foreign owned enterprises. Under these regulations,
wholly foreign owned enterprises may pay dividends only out of their accumulated
profits, if any, determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards and
regulations. Additionally, such companies are required to set aside a certain
amount of their accumulated profits each year, if any, to fund certain reserve
funds. These reserves are not distributable as cash dividends except in the
event of liquidation and cannot be used for working capital purposes. The PRC
government also imposes controls on the conversion of RMB into foreign
currencies and the remittance of currencies out of the PRC. We may experience
difficulties in completing the administrative procedures necessary to obtain and
remit foreign currency for the payment of dividends from the Company’s
profits.
Furthermore,
if our subsidiaries in China incur debt on their own in the future, the
instruments governing the debt may restrict its ability to pay dividends or make
other payments. If we or our subsidiaries are unable to receive all of the
revenues from our operations through these contractual or dividend arrangements,
we may be unable to pay dividends on our common stock.
The
Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must
conduct our business activities.
We are
dependent on our relationship with the local government in the province in which
we operate our business. Chinese government has exercised and continues to
exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy
through regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate in China may be
harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to
taxation, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other
matters. We believe that our operations in China are in material compliance with
all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. However, the central or local
governments of these jurisdictions may impose new, stricter regulations or
interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional
expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such
regulations or interpretations. Accordingly, government actions in the future,
including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to
return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in
the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on
economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof, and could require us
to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese
properties.
Future
inflation in China may inhibit our ability to conduct business in China. In
recent years, the Chinese economy has experienced periods of rapid expansion and
high rates of inflation. Rapid economic growth can lead to growth in the money
supply and rising inflation. If prices for our products rise at a rate that is
insufficient to compensate for the rise in the costs of supplies, it may have an
adverse effect on profitability. These factors have led to the adoption by
Chinese government, from time to time, of various corrective measures designed
to restrict the availability of credit or regulate growth and contain inflation.
High inflation may in the future cause Chinese government to impose controls on
credit and/or prices, or to take other action, which could inhibit economic
activity in China, and thereby harm the market for our products.
Risks
Relating to Our Securities
In
order to raise sufficient funds to expand our operations, we may have to issue
additional securities at prices which may result in substantial dilution to our
shareholders.
If we
raise additional funds through the sale of equity or convertible debt, our
current stockholders’ 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
common stock. 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.
Our
securities have not been registered under the Securities Act, and cannot be sold
without registration under the Securities Act or any exemption from
registration.
Our
securities should be considered a long-term, illiquid investment. Our securities
have not been registered under the Securities Act, and cannot be sold without
registration under the Securities Act or any exemption from registration. In
addition, our securities are not registered under any state securities laws that
would permit their transfer. Because of these restrictions and the absence of an
active trading market for the securities, a shareholder will likely be unable to
liquidate an investment even though other personal financial circumstances would
dictate such liquidation.
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 operating subsidiary 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
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.

Net Sales/
Revenue:
Net sales
increased by $17,720,605 or 85.41%, from $20,748,580 for the year ended December
31, 2008 to US$38,469,185 for the year ended December 31, 2009. Our
overall net sales increased because of the increase of the sales
network.
Cost of sales:
Cost of
sales increased by $12,924,892, or 85.37%, from $15,139,447 for the year ended
December 31, 2008 to US$28,064,339 for the year ended December 31,
2009. The increase in cost of sales is in line of the increase in
revenue as mentioned above.
Gross profit:
Gross
profit increased by $4,795,713, or 85.50%, from $5,609,133 for the year ended
December 31, 2008 to US$10,404,846 for the year ended December 31,
2009. The gross profit margin for year 2009 was about 27.05%, as compared
to 27.03% for year 2008.This is due to slight reduction in raw material costs
for the year.
Operating
Expenses:
Operating
expenses were $1,712,783 for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to
$2,078,011 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The operating expense in
2009 was increased by 21.32% as compared to 2008, due to the increase in
selling, general and administrative expenses during the year.
Income
from Operations:
Income
from operation was $3,896,350 for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to
$8,326,835 for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase of
$4,430,485, or 113.71%, was primarily the result of increased in gross profit.
Our income from operations increased because we increased our revenue at a
greater rate than our expenses from operations increased.
Net
Income:
Net
income was US$3,896,160 for the year ended December 31, 2008, compared to
$7,475,931 for the year ended December 31, 2009, an increase of $3,579,771 or
91.88%. Our net income increased because our revenues
increased.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of
December 31, 2009, our balance of cash and cash equivalents was $3,605,741,
comparing to $2,443,464 as of December 31, 2008. These funds were located in
financial institutions located in China.
The
primary uses of cash have been for selling and marketing expenses, employee
salaries, research and development expenses and working capital. All funds
received have been expended in the furtherance of growing the business,
establishing brand portfolios and used for the repayment of loans
payable.
The
Company currently generates its cash flow through operations which it believes
will be sufficient to sustain current level operations for at least the next
twelve months.
Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Rates. Our exposure
to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our short-term
investments and short-term obligations; thus, fluctuations in interest rates
would not have a material impact on the fair value of these securities. At
December 31, 2009, we had approximately $3,605,741 in cash and cash equivalents.
A hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in interest rates would not have a
material impact on our earnings or loss, or the fair market value or cash flows
of these instruments.
Foreign Exchange Rates. All
of those revenues derived and expenses and liabilities incurred are in Renminbi
(the currency of the PRC). Thus, the revenues and operating results would not be
impacted by exchange rate fluctuations in the currency of Renminbi.
Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements
We do not
have any off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with
unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose
entities” (SPEs).
Recent Accounting
Pronouncements
In
February, 2007, FASB issued SFAS 159 ‘The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets
and Financial Liabilities’ – Including an Amendment of FABS Statement No.
115. This statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial
instruments and certain other items at fair value. This statement is expected to
expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with the Board’s
long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments.
This statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year
that begins after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the
beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, SFAS No
159 was superseded by the Financial Instruments Topic of FASB Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC 825”).
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements” (“SFAS 160”). This Statement amends ARB
51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling
(minority) interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary.
It clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership
interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the
consolidated financial statements. This Statement is effective for fiscal years,
and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December
15, 2008 (that is, January 1, 2009, for entities with calendar year-ends). SFAS
No 160 was superseded by the Consolidation Topic of FASB Accounting Standards
Codification (“ASC 810”) The Company adopted SFAS 160 on January 1, 2009. The
adoption of this statement had no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.
On May 8,
2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles, which will provide framework for selecting
accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are
presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP) for nongovernmental entities. With the issuance of SFAS No. 162, the GAAP
hierarchy for nongovernmental entities will move from auditing literature to
accounting literature. SFAS No 162 was superseded by the General
Accounting Principle Topic of FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC
105”).
In June
2009, the FASB issued amended standards for determining whether to consolidate a
variable interest entity. These amended standards eliminate a mandatory
quantitative approach to determine whether a variable interest gives the entity
a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity in favor of a
qualitatively focused analysis, and require an ongoing reassessment of whether
an entity is the primary beneficiary. These amended standards are effective for
us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 and we are currently
evaluating the impact that adoption will have on our consolidated financial
statements.
In June
2009, the FASB issued ASC 855 (previously SFAS No. 165, Subsequent Events),
which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events
that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are
issued or available to be issued. It is effective for interim and annual periods
ending after June 15, 2009. There was no material impact upon the adoption of
this standard on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In August
2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2009-05, which amends
ASC Topic 820, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, which provides additional
guidance on the measurement of liabilities at fair value. These amended
standards clarify that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active
market for the identical liability is not available, we are required to use the
quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset, quoted prices
for similar liabilities, or quoted prices for similar liabilities when traded as
assets. If these quoted prices are not available, we are required to use another
valuation technique, such as an income approach or a market approach. These
amended standards are effective for us beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal
year 2009. There was no material impact upon the adoption of this standard on
the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In
January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06 (ASU
2010-06), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures which amends ASC Topic 820,
adding new requirements for disclosures for Levels 1 and 2, separate disclosures
of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements relating to Level 3 measurements
and clarification of existing fair value disclosures. ASU 2010-06 is
effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009,
except for the requirement to provide Level 3 activity of purchases, sales,
issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2010 (the Company’s fiscal year 2012); early
adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of
adopting ASU 2009-14 on its financial statements.

DESCRIPTION
OF SECURITIES
The
Company is authorized to issue 75,000,000 shares of common stock, par value
$0.001 per share and no preferred stock is authorized. As of the date hereof,
there are 20,000,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.
(a)
Common Stock.
Subject
to preferences that may apply to shares of preferred stock outstanding at the
time, the holders of outstanding shares of common stock are entitled to receive
dividends out of assets legally available therefore at times and in amounts as
our board of directors may determine. Each stockholder is entitled to one vote
for each share of common stock held on all matters submitted to a vote of the
stockholders. Cumulative voting is not provided for in our amended articles of
incorporation, which means that the majority of the shares voted can elect all
of the directors then standing for election. The common stock is not entitled to
preemptive rights and is not subject to conversion or redemption. Upon the
occurrence of a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the holders of shares of
common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment
of liabilities and satisfaction of preferential rights of any outstanding
preferred stock. There are no sinking fund provisions applicable to the common
stock. The outstanding shares of common stock are, and the shares of common
stock to be issued upon exercise of the Warrants will be, fully paid and
non-assessable.
(b)
Preferred Stock.
The Board
of Directors is empowered to designate and issue from time to time one or more
classes or series of preferred stock and to fix and determine the relative
rights, preferences, designations, qualifications, privileges, options,
conversion rights, limitations and other special or relative rights of each such
class or series so authorized. Such action could adversely affect the voting
power and other rights of the holders of the Company’s capital shares or could
have the effect of discouraging or making difficult any attempt by a person or
group to obtain control of the Company.
(c)
Warrants and Options.
We
currently do not have any warrants or options issued and
outstanding.
MARKET
FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
Our
common stock, par value $0.001 per share, has a trading symbol (“ECOH.OB”) but
has been thinly traded on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board
(“OTCBB”).
The
market price of our common stock is subject to significant fluctuations in
response to variations in our quarterly operating results, general trends in the
market, and other factors, over many of which we have little or no control. In
addition, broad market fluctuations, as well as general economic, business and
political conditions, may adversely affect the market for our common stock,
regardless of our actual or projected performance.
Holders
As of the
date hereof, after the close of the Share Exchange, 20,000,000 shares of
common stock are issued and outstanding. There are 49 shareholders of

Transfer
Agent and Registrar
The
Transfer Agent for our common stock is Island Stock Transfer, at 100 Second
Avenue South, Suite 705S, St. Petersburg, FL 33701. Its telephone number is
727-289-0010.
Dividend
Policy
Since
inception we have not paid any dividends on our common stock. We currently do
not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future on our common
stock. Although we intend to retain our earnings, if any, to finance the
exploration and growth of our business, our Board of Directors will have the
discretion to declare and pay dividends in the future. Payment of dividends in
the future will depend upon our earnings, capital requirements, and other
factors, which our Board of Directors may deem
relevant.
Penny
Stock
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.
Equity
Compensation Plan Information
None.
CERTAIN
RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
On April
16, 2010, our majority shareholders entered into certain stock purchase
agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”) with certain purchaser, pursuant to which
ZHANG JIE purchased 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding
common stock from GALINA BIRCA, the President and CEO of the Company; and
2,900,000 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock from
VLADIMIR ENACHI, the CFO and Director of the Company. The total of 5,900,000
shares represents 61.3% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. ZHANG JIE
paid a total of $29,500 to GALINA BIRCA and VLADIMIR ENACHI for their
shares.
At
December 31, 2009, due to related party was $29,252, which is due to a
shareholder. At December 31, 2008, due from related party was $1,523, which was
due from shareholder.
Except as
otherwise disclosed herein or incorporated herein by reference, there have not
been any transactions, or proposed transactions, during the last year, to which
the Company was or is to be a party, in which any director or executive officer
of the Company, any nominee for election as a director, any security holder
owning beneficially more than five percent of the common stock of the
Registrant, or any member of the immediate family of the aforementioned persons
had or is to have a direct or indirect material interest.
LEGAL
PROCEEDINGS
Currently
there are no legal proceedings pending or threatened against us. However, from
time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings
which arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation is subject
to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may
arise from time to time that may harm our business.
INDEMNIFICATION
OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
Our
directors and officers are indemnified as provided by the Nevada Revised
Statutes and our Bylaws. Pursuant to the provisions of Nevada Revised
Statutes 78.751, the Company shall indemnify its directors, officers and
employees as follows: Every director, officer, or employee of the Company shall
be indemnified by the Company against all expenses and liabilities, including
counsel fees, reasonably incurred by or imposed upon him/her in connection with
any proceeding to which he/she may be made a party, or in which he/she may
become involved, by reason of being or having been a director, officer, employee
or agent of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a
director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, partnership, joint venture,
trust or enterprise, or any settlement thereof, whether or not he/she is a
director, officer, employee or agent at the time such expenses are incurred,
except in such cases wherein the director, officer, employee or agent is
adjudged guilty of willful misfeasance or malfeasance in the performance of
his/her duties; provided that in the event of a settlement the indemnification
herein shall apply only when the Board of Directors approves such settlement and
reimbursement as being for the best interests of the Company. The Company shall
provide to any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director,
officer, employee or agent of the company, partnership, joint venture, trust or
enterprise, the indemnity against expenses of a suit, litigation or other
proceedings which is specifically permissible under applicable law. Our
bylaws also provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers from
all liabilities incurred by them in connection with any action, suit or
proceeding in which they are involved by reason of their acting as our directors
and officers.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons, we have been
informed that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In
the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than
the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding)
is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with
the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel
the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.
Item 3.02 Unregistered
Sales of Equity Securities.
Pursuant
to the Exchange Agreement, on May 12, 2010, we issued an aggregate of 10,375,000
shares of common stock to the AIVtech Shareholders, their designees or assigns,
in exchange for 100% of the outstanding shares of AIVtech. Such
securities were not registered under the Securities Act. These
securities qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act
since the issuance securities by us did not involve a public offering. The
offering was not a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the
insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering,
manner of the offering and number of securities offered. We did not undertake an
offering in which we sold a high number of securities to a high number of
investors. In addition, these shareholders had the necessary investment intent
as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to and received share certificates
bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule
144 of the Securities Act. This restriction ensures that these securities would
not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a
“public offering.” Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the
requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act
for this transaction.
