NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF 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, (amended 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, 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, R&D, 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 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 resulting 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 on March 31, 2010
exercised his option to purchase an additional 29.0% of the outstanding capital stock of TCB Digital. 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 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 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 heldan option to acquire an additional 29.0% 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 29.0% interest in TCB Digital for 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.
TCB Digital and Zoom Telephonics entered into a license granting TCB Digital rights to the
"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. 6
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. On June 1, 2010, Zoom pursuant to a share exchange agreement (the "Agreement") dated April 29,
2010, acquired 100% of the shares of Nollec Wireless Company Ltd., ("Nollec Wireless") a mobile phone and wireless
communication design company located in Beijing, China (the "Acquisition"). The parties to the Agreement include: (1) Zoom Technologies, Inc.;(2) Silver Tech Enterprises, Ltd.
("Silver Tech"), a holding company founded in July 2005, organized and existing under the laws of the BVI, which owned 100%

of HK which owned 100% of Nollec Wireless; (4) Nollec Wireless, the operating company founded in June 2007, organized
under the laws of the PRC; (5) Key Network Holdings, Ltd. ("KNH"), a BVI company, then owner of 76.8% of the outstanding
stock of Silver Tech; and (6) Better Day Finance, Ltd. ("BDF"), a BVI company, then owner of 23.2% of the outstanding stock
of Silver Tech. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company purchased 100% of the outstanding stock of
Silver Tech from KNH and BDF, the existing shareholders of Silver Tech, for $10.96 million, comprised of $1.37 million in cash
and 1,342,599 newly issued unregistered shares of common stock of Zoom valued at $9.59 million at the weighted average
closing price of shares for 10 days prior and leading up to the agreement date. At the closing of the acquisition on May 31,
2010, the Company issued 1,342,599 shares and paid $500,000; the balance of $870,000 in cash will be paid in six equal

included in other payables and $580,000 included in long-term payables. After the closing on June 1, 2010, Silver Tech, Ever
Elite and Nollec Wireless became wholly owned subsidiaries of Zoom. We determined the acquisition of Silver Tech did not
require the preparation and filing of audited financial statements of Silver Tech under Rule 3-05(b)(2)(i) of Regulation S-X. On January 4, 2011, the Company acquired 100% ownership of Celestial Digital Entertainment, Ltd.,
("CDE") a mobile platform video game development company based in Hong Kong. The consideration was
$1,818,000 in common shares of the Company, and the number of shares was calculated by dividing the $1,818,000 by the
higher of i) $3.75 per share or ii) the Volume Weighted Average Closing Price of the Company's shares for the 10 consecutive
trading days leading up to the day before the date of the Share Exchange Agreement which was December 20, 2010. This
resulted in the issuance of 484,800 shares to acquire CDE. CDE primarily focuses on development of video games and
applications for mobile phones and mobile platforms. CDE has developed over 40 titles for the Apple iPhone and is one of the
largest developers of iPhone applications in Asia. The Company's wholly-own subsidiary in Hong Kong, Profit Harvest, was
the acquiring entity. The Subsidiaries Gold Lion was founded by Mr. Lei Gu ("Gu") in September 2002 in the BVI. Pursuant to an
agreement dated June 30, 2007, Mr. Wei Cao ("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

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 the marketing arm of the company particularly for exports and
subassemblies. 7

Hebei Leimone and Beijing Depu held 36.0% and 15.0% respectively of TCB Digital, or 51.0% ownership in TCB Digital.
Pursuant to an agreement dated June 30, 2007, Cao irrevocably pledged his 15.0% 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 29.0% of TCB Digital to the Company. The Company issued 2,402,576 common shares to Mr. Gu and
his assignees as purchase consideration and 60,000 common shares to an investment banker as compensation for this
transaction. The Company's ownership interest in TCB Digital was increased to 80% as at March 31, 2010. This transaction
was recorded under SFAS No. 160 (Included in ASC 810 "Consolidation") "Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated

100%-owned subsidiary Profit Harvest, its 100%-owned subsidiary Jiangsu Leimone, and its 80%-owned joint venture TCB
Digital as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 100%-owned subsidiary Silver Tech as of and for the seven
months ended December 31, 2010. As of January 4, 2011, the Company completed its100% acquisition of Celestial Digital

2011 of TCB Digital, Jiangsu Leimone, Profit Harvest, Silver Tech and CDE, and balance sheets at December 31, 2010 of TCB
Digital, Jiangsu Leimone, Profit Harvest and Silver Tech; the consolidation of operating results for the six months ended June
30, 2011 of TCB Digital, Jiangsu Leimone, Profit Harvest, Silver Tech and CDE. Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). For the Company's operating subsidiaries of JS Leimone,
TCB Digital and Nollec Wireless, the functional currency is the Chinese Renminbi ("RMB"); the functional currency
of Profit Harvest is United States Dollars ("USD" or "$"), and the functional currency of Ever Elite and
CDE is Hong Kong Dollars ("HKD") However the accompanying consolidated financial statements were translated
and presented in USD. 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. 9
Comprehensive Income The Company follows 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. 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 were $1,673,266 and $964,206 as of June 30, 2011 and
December 31, 2010, respectively. Cash and 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 maintains 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. For the contracted manufacturing activities, our standard terms for accounts receivable from our customers are
between 60 to 75 days from close of the billing cycle; and for sales of own brand phones our terms include prepaid
arrangements and extending receivable to customers up to 60 days. We also offer credit terms of up to 150 days in our trading
activities to a certain customer. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, management estimated allowance for bad debt
based on its evaluation (see Note 5). 10
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. 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. The Company performed annual reviews of long-lived assets and
management concluded that for year 2010 there was no impairment. 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 June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010,
the Company did not record any impairment of goodwill. 11
Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes sales in accordance with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC") Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104, "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements" (FASB ASC Topic 605), "Revenue Recognition." 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. The Company's subsidiary, Nollec Wireless is in the mobile phone design, software integration and
mobile solution R&D business, Nollec Wireless, recognizes revenue under the percentage of completion method ASC

ZOOM TECHNOLOGIES, INC., AFFILIATES & SUBSIDIARIES
JUNE 30, 2011 AND 2010
Estimates of cost to complete is reviewed periodically and revised as appropriate to reflect new information. When the current estimates of total contract revenue and contract cost indicate a loss, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is made.
Income is recognized as the percentage of estimated total income, and is determined by dividing incurred costs to date by estimated total costs after giving effect to adjustments, if any, in estimates of costs to completion based upon the most recent information. Percentage of completion is based on labor hours incurred to date divided by total estimated labor hours for the contract.
Royalty income on sales of licensed products by its customers is recorded when the customers report sales to the Company. Royalty income is reported monthly and recorded in the period in which the product is sold. The Company has the right to audit the books of the licensees.
The Company's subsidiary, CDE is in the business of video games and applications for mobile phones and mobile platforms development. Revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC 985-605-55-125. Cost of Software Development Revenue is accounted for under ASC 985-20 to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed.
12
CDE capitalizes cost of development of software for hosting purpose in accordance with ASC subtopic 350-40 ("ASC 350-40"), Intangibles-Goodwill and Other: Internal-Use Software (Pre-codification: Statement of Position ("SOP") No. 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use). As such, CDE expenses all costs that are incurred in connection with the planning and implementation phases of development and costs that are associated with repair or maintenance. Costs incurred in the development phase are capitalized and amortized over the estimated product life. Since the inception of CDE, the amount of costs qualifying for capitalization has been insignificant and as a result all internally used software development costs have been expensed as incurred.
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 expensed on the straight-line basis over the lease term.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are related primarily to the development of cell phone technology, video games and applications for mobile phones and mobile platforms development. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
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.
13
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 June 30, 2011 are as follows:

The Company's financial instruments include cash and equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, notes receivables, other receivables, accounts payable, 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 (Note 14). Management estimates the carrying amounts of the non related party financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and equivalents and trade and bills receivables. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, substantially all of the Company's cash and 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.
14
Non-controlling Interests
The Company follows ASC 810, previously SFAS No. 160 "Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements-reported in equity" for reporting non-controlling interest ("NCI") in a subsidiary. As a result, the Company reports NCI as a separate component of Stockholders' Equity in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Additionally, the Company reports the portion of net income and comprehensive income attributed to the Company and NCI separately in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. The Company also includes a separate column for NCI in the Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity.
Statement of Cash Flows
In accordance with ASC 230, "Statement of Cash Flows", previously SFAS 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
In June 2011, FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (ASC Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. Under the amendments in this update, an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income and a total amount for comprehensive income. In a single continuous statement, the entity is required to present the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with the total of comprehensive income in that statement. In the two-statement approach, an entity is required to present components of net income and total net income in the statement of net income. The statement of other comprehensive income should immediately follow the statement of net income and include the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with a total for comprehensive income. In addition, the entity is required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company is currently assessing the effect that the adoption of this pronouncement will have on its financial statements.

The Company cannot guarantee the Renminbi and USD 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 USD. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in the political and economic environments without notice.
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.
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 June 30, 2011 and 2010 and believes its exposure to interest rate risk is not material.

Business Overview
Gold Lion was founded by Mr. Lei Gu 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. Songtao Du, 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. Wei Cao, with all rights to such shares including voting rights. Consequently, Gu and Cao jointly control 100% of Gold Lion.

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:
36
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of the Company'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. The Company 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 the Company's consolidated financial statements, the Company believes the following critical accounting policies involve the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments: allowance for doubtful accounts; income taxes; asset impairment.
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 Zoom Technologies recognizes in the financial statements contained herein.
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 the Company 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.
The Company's subsidiary, Nollec Wireless, is in the mobile phone design, software integration and mobile solution R&D business. Nollec Wireless recognizes revenue under percentage of completion method ASC Topic 605-35-25 (Construction - Type and Production - Type Contracts) when reasonably dependable estimates can be made and in which all the following conditions exist:
a. Contracts executed by the parties normally include provisions that clearly specify the
enforceable rights regarding goods or services to be provided and received by the parties, the consideration to be exchanged,
and the manner and terms of settlement.
b. The buyer can be expected to satisfy all obligations under the contract.
c. The contractor can be expected to perform all contractual obligations.
Estimates of cost to complete is reviewed periodically and revised as appropriate to reflect new information. When the current estimates of total contract revenue and contract cost indicate a loss, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is made.
Income is recognized as the percentage of estimated total income, and is determined by dividing incurred costs to date by estimated total costs after giving effect to adjustments, if any, in estimates of costs to completion based upon the most recent information. Percentage of completion is based on labor hours incurred to date divided by total estimated labor hours for the contract.
Royalty income on sales of licensed products by its customers are recorded when the customers report sales to the Company. Royalty income is reported monthly and is recorded in the period in which the product is sold. The Company has the right to audit the books of the licensees.
The Company's subsidiary, CDE is in the business of video games and applications for mobile phones and mobile platforms development. Revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC 985-605-55-125. Cost of Software Development Revenue is accounted for under ASC 985-20 to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed.
37
CDE capitalizes cost of development of software for hosting purpose in accordance with ASC subtopic 350-40 ("ASC 350-40"), Intangibles-Goodwill and Other: Internal-Use Software (Pre-codification: Statement of Position ("SOP") No. 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use). As such, CDE expenses all costs that are incurred in connection with the planning and implementation phases of development and costs that are associated with repair or maintenance. Costs incurred in the development phase are capitalized and amortized over the estimated product life. Since the inception of CDE, the amount of costs qualifying for capitalization has been insignificant and as a result all internally used software development costs have been expensed as incurred.
Allowance for doubtful accounts
Zoom Technologies maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to reduce amounts to their estimated realizable value. A considerable amount of judgment is required when the Company 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. The Company 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, the Company 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
The Company 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. The Company adopted FIN 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Tax Positions.
Asset Impairment
The Company 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. The Company also utilizes judgment to determine other factors within fair value analyses, including the applicable discount rate.

The increase of revenues in the second quarter of 2011 compared to the corresponding quarter in 2010 was mainly due to the sales of our own branded mobile phones. In the second quarter of 2011, we sold 207,443 units of our Leimone brand phones of which 158,751 were 3G handsets, and we sold 50,700 of our LongTel brand phones to India.

Gross Profit
Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 rose 28.4% to $5,881,890 from $4,579,757 for the corresponding 2010 quarter. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues for the second quarter of 2011 was 10.2%, as compared to 10.7% for the same quarter in 2010. Gross margin for our Leimone brand phones ranges between 10% to 15%, gross margin for our LongTel brand phones sold to India during this quarter was about 5% since these are lower priced handsets. Our EMS segment generates a gross margin of approximately 6%.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Sales and marketing expenses mainly represent salaries of sales personnel, and marketing and transportation costs; and such expenses were $179,255 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $69,962 for the corresponding period in 2010. The higher amounts in this category for 2011 resulted from the significantly increased activities in the sales of our own brand products and also for support of our export business.
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 these were $1,663,774 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $910,422 for the corresponding period in 2010. The increase of such expenses in 2011 was mainly due to legal, accounting and other expenses related to the Company maintaining compliance with the SEC and Nasdaq rules and regulations.
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs during the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $1,393,511 and $0 respectively. Out of the total R&D costs in the second quarter of 2011, approximately $1 million was incurred for the purpose of introducing new and more advanced products later on this year, including smartphones with the Android operating system based on Marvell and Qualcomm chipsets for overseas markets including the United States.
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 three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $307,469 and $413,250 respectively.
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, total operating expenses were $3,544,009 or 6.2% of revenues compared to $1,393,634 or 3.3% of revenues in the same 2010 period. These expenses were higher this year mainly due to increases in R&D expenses described above.
Other income/(expenses)-net
The Company's other expenses-net were $194,510 and $170,255 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 respectively. These expenses were the results of interest expense offset by interest income and also income from various non-recurring activities.
39
Net income
After incurring added R&D costs of approximately $1 million for new phone products, we report net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 of 1,495,223, a decrease of $539,425 or 26.5% from $2,034,648 for the corresponding 2010 quarter. Net income over revenues, for the second quarters of 2011 and 2010 were 2.6% and 4.7% respectively. The significant increase in R&D expenditures, as described above, decreased our income from operations and resulted in lower net income compared to the same period last year.
Foreign currency translation gain
For the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company's foreign currency translation gain were $478,791 and $110,615, respectively. Foreign currency translation gain resulted from foreign currency exchange changes particularly the Renminbi against the USD. The gain or loss can result in a reverse in future periods if the trend in the exchange rate of the Reminbi to the USD changes direction.
