NOTE3
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the application of certain significant accounting policies as described in this note and elsewhere in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes.

·
Use of estimates

In preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

·
Basis of consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of NFEC and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions within the Company have been eliminated upon consolidation.

·
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date of such investments.

·  
Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest, which are due within contractual payment terms, generally 30 to 90 days from shipment. Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customer's financial condition, the customer credit-worthiness and their payment history. Accounts receivable outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. Past due balances over 90 days and over a specified amount are reviewed individually for collectibility. At the end of each period, the Company specifically evaluates each individual customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions to monitor the progress of the collection of accounts receivables. The Company will consider the allowance for doubtful accounts for any estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. For the receivables that are past due or not being paid according to payment terms, the appropriate actions are taken to exhaust all means of collection, including seeking legal resolution in a court of law. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

NF ENERGY SAVING CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2010
(Currency expressed in United States Dollars (“US$”), except for number of shares)
(Unaudited)

As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, allowance for doubtful accounts was $0 and $0, respectively.

·  
Retention receivable

Retention receivable is the amount withheld by a customer based upon 5-10% of the contract value, until a product warranty is expired.

·  
Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value (net realizable value), cost being determined on a weighted average method. Costs include material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs. The Company reviews historical sales activity each quarter to determine excess, slow moving items and potentially obsolete items and also evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand. The Company provides inventory allowances based on excess and obsolete inventories determined principally by customer demand. As of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Company did not record an allowance for obsolete inventories, nor have there been any write-offs.

·  
Plant and equipment

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated residual values:

   
Depreciable
life
 
Residual
value
 
Plant and machinery
 
3 – 20 years
    5 %
Furniture, fixture and equipment
 
5 – 8 years
    5 %

Expenditures for repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred. When assets have been retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.

Depreciation expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were $72,674 and $74,428 respectively.

·  
Construction in progress

Construction in progress is stated at cost, which includes acquisition of land use rights, cost of construction, purchases of plant and equipment and other direct costs attributable to the construction of a new manufacturing facility. Construction in progress is not depreciated until such time as the assets are completed and put into operational use. No capitalized interest is incurred during the period of construction.

·  
Finance leases

Leases that transfer substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership to the lessee, other than legal title, are accounted for as finance leases. Substantially all of the risks or benefits of ownership are deemed to have been transferred if any one of the four criteria is met: (i) transfer of ownership to the lessee at the end of the lease term, (ii) the lease containing a bargain purchase option, (iii) the lease term exceeding 75% of the estimated economic life of the leased asset, (iv) the present value of the minimum lease payments exceeding 90% of the fair value. At the inception of a finance lease, the Company as the lessee records an asset and an obligation at an amount equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments. The leased asset is amortized over the shorter of the lease term or its estimated useful life if title does not transfer to the Company, while the leased asset is depreciated in accordance with the Company’s normal depreciation policy if the title is to eventually transfer to the Company. The periodic rent payments made during the lease term are allocated between a reduction in the obligation and interest element using the effective interest method in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 835-30, Imputation of Interest”.

·  
Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 360-10-5, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, all long-lived assets such as plant and equipment held and used by the Company and construction in progress are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of assets to estimated discounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets. There has been no impairment as of March 31, 2010 and 2009.

·  
Revenue recognition

The Company offers the following products and services to its customers:

(a)
Sales of energy saving flow control equipment
   
(b)
Provision of energy project management and sub-contracting service
   
(c)
Provision of energy-saving reconstruction projects

In accordance with the ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, transfer of title has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured.

(a)  
Sale of products

The Company derives a majority of revenues from the sale of energy saving flow control equipment. Generally, these energy saving flow control equipment are manufactured and configured to customer requirements. The Company typically produces and builds the energy saving flow control equipment for customers in a period from 1 to 6 months. When the Company completes the production in accordance with the customer’s specification, the customer is required to inspect the finished products at the Company’s plant to ensure full satisfaction with the quality of the products and adherence to product specifications. Once the product is accepted by the customer, the Company makes delivery to the customer, usually within a month.

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of such finished products upon delivery to the customers, whereas the title and risk of loss are fully transferred to the customers. The Company records its revenues, net of value added taxes (“VAT”). The Company is subject to VAT which is levied on the majority of its products at the rate of 17% on the invoiced value of sales. The Company experienced no product returns and has recorded no reserve for sales returns for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.

(b)  
Service revenue

Service revenue is primarily derived from energy-saving technical services or project management or sub-contracting services that are not an element of an arrangement for the sale of products. These services are generally billed on a time-cost plus basis, for a period of service time from 2 to 3 months. Revenue is recognized, net of business taxes when service is rendered and accepted by the customers.

(c)  
Project revenue

For the energy-saving reconstruction projects, the Company follows the percentage-of-completion method under ASC Topic 605-35, “Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts”, to recognize revenues for energy-saving reconstruction projects that require significant modification or customization or installation to the customer’s specifications for a term of service exceeding 12 months. Advance payments from customers and amounts billed to clients in excess of revenue recognized are recorded as receipt in advance. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company did not recognize any project revenue.

(d)  
Interest income

Interest income is recognized on a time apportionment basis, taking into account the principal amounts outstanding and the interest rates applicable.

·  
Comprehensive income

ASC Topic 220, “Comprehensive Income”, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income as defined includes all changes in equity during a period from non-owner sources. Accumulated other comprehensive income, as presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity, consists of changes in unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency translation. This comprehensive income is not included in the computation of income tax expense or benefit.

·  
Income taxes

The Company adopts the ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes which prescribes the recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. In addition, the guidance requires the determination of whether the benefits of tax positions will be more likely than not sustained upon audit based upon the technical merits of the tax position. For tax positions that are determined to be more likely than not sustained upon audit, a company recognizes the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement in the financial statements. For tax positions that are not determined to be more likely than not sustained upon audit, a company does not recognize any portion of the benefit in the financial statements. The guidance provides for de-recognition, classification, penalties and interest, accounting in interim periods and disclosure.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company did not have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions. As of March 31, 2010, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

The Company conducts major businesses in the PRC and is subject to tax in this jurisdiction. As a result of its business activities, the Company files tax returns that are subject to examination by a foreign tax authority. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company filed and cleared a 2009 PRC tax return with the requisite tax authority.

·  
Product warranty

Under the terms of its contracts, the Company offers customers free 12-months of product warranty on a case-by-case basis, depending upon the type of customers, nature and size of the infrastructure projects. Under such arrangements, a portion of the project contract balance (usually 5-10% of contract value) is withheld by a customer for 12 months, until the product warranty has expired. The Company has not experienced any material returns where it was under obligation to honor this standard warranty provision. As such, no reserve for product warranty has been accounted for in the three months ended March 31, 2010.

·  
Stock-based compensation

The Company adopts ASC Topic 718, "Stock Compensation", ("ASC 718") using the fair value method. Under ASC 718, stock-based compensation is measured using the Black-Scholes Option-Pricing model on the date of grant.

For non-employee stock-based compensation, the Company adopts ASC Topic 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”, stock-based compensation related to non-employees is accounted for based on the fair value of the related stock or options or the fair value of the services on the grant date, which ever is more readily determinable in accordance with ASC 718.

·  
Net income per share

The Company calculates net income per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic income per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is computed similar to basic income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock equivalents had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.

·  
Foreign currencies translation

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollar ("US$"). The Company's subsidiaries in the PRC, Nengfa Energy and Sales Company maintain their books and records in their local currency, the Renminbi Yuan ("RMB"), which is functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which these entities operate.

In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30 “Translation of Financial Statement, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses resulting from the translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity.

Related parties

Parties, which can be a corporation or individual, are considered to be related if the Company has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant influence over the other party in making financial and operational decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.

·  
Segment reporting

ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting” establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company’s internal organization structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in financial statements. The Company operates in two reportable operating segments in the PRC.

·  
Fair value measurement

ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” ("ASC 820"), establishes a new framework for measuring fair value and expands related disclosures. Broadly, ASC 820 framework requires fair value to be determined based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820 establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

For financial assets and liabilities, fair value is the price the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with a market participant at the measurement date. In the absence of active markets for the identical assets or liabilities, such measurements involve developing assumptions based on market observable data and, in the absence of such data, internal information that is consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction that occurs at the measurement date.

·  
Financial instruments

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts and retention receivables, prepayments and other receivables, accounts payable, customer deposits, income tax payable, other payable and accrued liabilities are carried at cost which approximates fair value. The estimated fair value of convertible promissory notes and obligations under a finance lease was approximately $1.9 million as of March 31, 2010, based on current market prices or interest rates. Any changes in fair value of assets or liabilities carried at fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income for each period.

Recent accounting pronouncements

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements could be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.

In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) expanded ASC 810-10, to provide guidance for variable interest entities (VIEs). The change modifies our approach for determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE by assessing whether we have control over such entities. This change is effective for us on July 1, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of the VIE provisions of ASC 810-10, but does not expect a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) No. 2009-13, “Revenue Recognition” (Topic 605). The accounting standard update addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services separately rather than as a combined unit. Specifically, this subtopic addresses how to separate deliverables and how to measure and allocate arrangement consideration to one or more units of accounting. ASU 2009-13 will be effective for us on July 1, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of ASU 2009-13, but does not expect a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

FASB ASC 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”), establishes accounting and reporting standards for minority interests, which are recharacterized as noncontrolling interests. ASC 810 was revised so that noncontrolling interests are classified as a component of equity separate from the parent’s equity; purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in a change in control are accounted for as equity transactions; net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest are included in consolidated net income in the statement of operations; and upon a loss of control, the interest sold, as well as any interest retained, is recorded at fair value, with any gain or loss recognized in earnings. This revision was effective for the Company as of January 1, 2009. It applies prospectively, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements, for which it applies retroactively. In addition, ASC 810, amends the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities. The amendments will significantly affect the overall consolidation analysis under ASC 810. This phase of ASC 810 became effective for the Company on January 1, 2010 and did not impact the Company’s consolidation conclusions for its variable interest entities.

In January 2010, the FASB issued an amendment to the fair value measurement and disclosure standard improving disclosures about fair value measurements. This amended guidance requires separate disclosure of significant transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 and the reasons for the transfers. The amended guidance also requires that in the Level 3 reconciliation, the information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements be disclosed separately on a gross basis rather than as one net number. The guidance for the Level 1 and 2 disclosures was adopted on January 1, 2010, and did not have an impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The guidance for the activity in Level 3 disclosures is effective January 1, 2011, and will not have an impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows as the amended guidance provides only disclosure requirements. The Company had no significant transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 inputs during the quarter ended March 31, 2010.

In February 2010, the FASB issued amended guidance on subsequent events. Under this amended guidance, SEC filers are no longer required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in originally issued and revised financial statements. This guidance was effective immediately and the Company adopted these new requirements for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.

PROMISSORY NOTES PAYABLE

On February 24, 2010 and March 4, 2010, the Company sold, through a private placement to two accredited investors, convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $960,000 and warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase 160,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Stock"). The Company intends to use the net proceeds of approximately $900,000 from the private placement for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The Notes bear simple interest at the rate of 6% per year and, absent an “event of default,” are payable in shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Provided an "event of default" has not occurred and is not then continuing, the Notes will convert upon the earlier to occur of (i) the commencement of trading of the Company's Common Stock on a major US stock exchange, or (ii) one year after issuance. Upon conversion, the holders of the Notes shall receive such number of shares of Common Stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the then-outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest on the Notes by (b) the then-current conversion price, which initially shall be $3.00 per share. The conversion price is subject to adjustment for stock dividends, splits, combinations and similar events. The Notes are secured by a security interest in and lien upon all of the Company’s assets.

The Warrants, which are exercisable for shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $4.00 per share, are not exercisable until three months after issuance and will terminate five years thereafter. The exercise price is subject to adjustment for stock dividends, splits, combinations and similar events. The Company has agreed to provide the investors with “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants.

The Company has engaged an independent valuer to perform the valuation of the Notes, and the Company determined that, in accordance with ASC Topic 470-20, “Debt with conversion and other options”, the warrants and related convertible notes should be accounted for as two separate instruments (equity and debt instruments). The accounting for these instruments reflects the notion that the consideration received upon issuance must be allocated between equity and debt components. Proceeds from the sale of a debt instrument with stock purchase warrants are allocated to the two elements, based on the relative fair values of the debt instrument without the warrants and of the warrants themselves at time of issuance. The portion of the proceeds allocated to the warrants is accounted for as paid-in capital. The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the debt instrument portion of the transaction as debt discount.

(c)         Credit risk

Financial instruments that are potentially subject to credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. The Company believes the concentration of credit risk in its trade receivables is substantially mitigated by its ongoing credit evaluation process and relatively short collection terms. The Company does not generally require collateral from customers. The Company evaluates the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other information.

(d)
Interest rate risk

As the Company has no significant interest-bearing assets, the Company’s income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.

The Company’s interest-rate risk arises from borrowing under its finance lease. The Company manages interest rate risk by varying the issuance and maturity dates variable rate debt, limiting the amount of variable rate debt, and continually monitoring the effects of market changes in interest rates. As of March 31, 2010, borrowing under finance lease was at fixed rates.

(e)         Exchange rate risk

The reporting currency of the Company is US$, to date the majority of the revenues and costs are denominated in RMB and a significant portion of the assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB. As a result, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk as its revenues and results of operations may be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between US$ and RMB. If RMB depreciates against US$, the value of RMB revenues and assets as expressed in US$ financial statements will decline. The Company does not hold any derivative or other financial instruments that expose to substantial market risk.

(f)         Economic and political risks

The Company's operations are conducted in the PRC. Accordingly, the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in the PRC, and by the general state of the PRC economy.

The Company's operations in the PRC are subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These include risks associated with, among others, the political, economic and legal environment and foreign currency exchange. The Company's results may be adversely affected by changes in the political and social conditions in the PRC, and by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion, remittances abroad, and rates and methods of taxation.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

(a)  
Operating lease commitments

The Company is committed under a non-cancelable operating lease with fixed monthly rentals, due through February 9, 2011.Costs incurred under the operating lease, which are considered equivalent to the market rate, are recorded as rental expense and totaled approximately $9,143 and $7,303 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.

As of March 31, 2010, the future minimum rental payments due under this non-cancelable operating lease in the next twelve months is $38,400.

(b)  
Capital commitments

In 2008, the Company was approved by the local government to construct a new manufacturing facility for energy-saving products and equipment in Yingzhou District Industrial Park, Tieling City, Liaoning Province, the PRC. Total estimated construction cost of a new manufacturing facility is approximately $16 million (including land use rights of approximately $3 million). The construction project is expected to be fully completed in late 2010.

As of March 31, 2010, the Company is committed to the future contingent payments of approximately $1 million on the purchase of new plant and equipment and third party contractors in the next twelve months.

(c)  
Litigation

On May 21, 2007, a civil complaint Robert Dawley vs NF Energy Saving Corp., et al. was filed in the United States District Court, Middle District of Florida, Orlando, Civil No. 6:07-cv-872-Orl-18DAB. The complaint accuses the defendants of breaching a contract for payment of money that was signed by Sam Winer, former Chief Executive Officer, before the commencement of the Company’s reverse merger. After being initially dismissed by the Court, the action was authorized to proceed on November 16, 2007. The trial was held in the United States District Court, Middle District of Florida, Orlando on October 16, 2008. The District Court issued a Judgment on December 11, 2008 awarding the plaintiff the sum of $400,000 against the Company, plus prejudgment interest in the amount of $132,822, with continuing interest of $132 per day on the $400,000 obligation until it is paid. The Court further adjudged that the plaintiff shall surrender his stock upon payment of the $400,000. In the event the plaintiff fails to surrender his stock after payment, the Company may cancel the stock. Any payments or collection under the Judgment shall be credited first to interest.

On January 6, 2009, the Company filed a notice of appeal 09-10140-B in the United States of Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit from the District Court’s judgment.. The Company has also accrued $200,000 for this contingent liability to the statement of operation in fiscal year 2008. In addition, the Company’s directors, Mr. Gang Li and Ms. Li Hua Wang have personally agreed to guarantee all contingent liabilities and costs to be incurred from this litigation claim.

On April 1, 2010, the Eleventh Circuit issued a unanimous opinion reversing the District Court’s Judgment on the grounds that Dawley was not entitled to the relief that he sought and that the law did not support the District Court’s Judgment against NF Energy.  The Eleventh Circuit, to the contrary, entered Judgment in NF Energy’s favor. NF Energy has filed a Bill of Costs seeking an award of its costs on appeal, which totals less than $1,000, from Dawley.

Counsel for Dawley has filed a Petition for Re-Hearing by the Eleventh Circuit panel that heard the appeal. At this point, the Company does not believe that the judgment would have a material impact or significant contingencies to the Company.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

As used herein the terms "we", "us", "our," the “Registrant,” “NFEC” and the "Company" means, NF Energy Saving Corporation, a Delaware corporation, formerly known as NF Energy Saving Corporation of America, Diagnostic Corporation of America, Global Broadcast Group, Inc., and Galli Process, Inc. These terms also refer to our subsidiary corporations, Liaoning Nengfa Weiye Energy Technology Corporation Ltd. (“Nengfa Energy”), formerly known as Liaoning Nengfa Weiye Pipe Network Construction and Operation Co. Ltd. (“Neng Fa”), a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the Peoples’ Republic of China, which was acquired in November 2006, and Liaoning Nengfa Weiye Tie Fa Sales Co., Ltd. (“Sales Company”), a limited liability corporation organized and existing under the laws of the Peoples’ Republic of China, which was established in September 2007.

NF Energy Saving Corporation was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in the name of Galli Process, Inc. on October 31, 2000 for the purpose of seeking and consummating a merger or acquisition with a business entity organized as a private corporation, partnership, or sole proprietorship. On December 31, 2001, Galli Process, Inc. became a majority owned subsidiary of City View TV, Inc., a Florida corporation (“City View”). On February 7, 2002, Galli Process, Inc. changed its name to Global Broadcast Group, Inc. On March 1, 2002, City View merged into Global Broadcast Group, Inc., which was the surviving entity. On November 12, 2004, the Company changed its name to Diagnostic Corporation of America. On March 15, 2007, we changed our name to NF Energy Saving Corporation of America, and on August 24, 2009, the Company further changed its name to NF Energy Saving Corporation, in both instances to more accurately reflect our business after a stock exchange transaction with Neng Fa. Our principal place of business is 21-Jia Bei Si Dong Road, Tie Xi Qu, Shenyang, P. R. China 110021. Our telephone number is (8624) 2560-9750.

On November 15, 2006, we executed a Plan of Exchange ("Plan of Exchange"), among the Company, Neng Fa, the shareholders of Neng Fa (the "Neng Fa Shareholders") and Gang Li, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer ("Mr. Li").

Pursuant to and at the closing of the Plan of Exchange, which occurred on November 30, 2006, we issued to the Neng Fa Shareholders 12,000,000 shares of our common stock, or 89.4% of our then outstanding common stock, in exchange for all of the shares of capital stock of Neng Fa owned by the Neng Fa shareholders. Immediately upon the closing, Neng Fa became our 100% owned subsidiary, and the Company ceased all of its other operations and adopted and implemented the business plan of Neng Fa.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

An appreciation of our critical accounting policies is necessary to understand our financial results. These policies may require management to make difficult and subjective judgments regarding uncertainties, and as a result, such estimates may significantly impact our financial results. The precision of these estimates and the likelihood of future changes depend on a number of underlying variables and a range of possible outcomes. We applied our critical accounting policies and estimation methods consistently in all periods presented.

Revenue recognition

In accordance with the ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, transfer of title has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

The Company’s revenue is principally derived from three primary sources: Sales of energy saving flow control equipment, provision of energy project management and sub-contracting services, and provision of energy-saving reconstruction projects.

(a) Sale of products

The Company derives a majority of its revenues from the sale of energy saving flow control equipment. Generally, the energy saving flow control equipment is manufactured and configured to customer requirements. The Company typically produces the energy saving flow control equipment for customers during a period from one to six months. When the Company completes production in accordance with the customer’s specification, the customer is required to inspect the finished products at the Company’s plant to approve quality and conformity and final acceptance. Once the product is accepted by the customer, the Company undertakes delivery to the customer, usually within a month.

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of such finished products upon delivery to the customers, when the title and risk of loss are fully transferred to the customers. The Company records its revenues, net of value added taxes (“VAT”). The Company is subject to VAT which is levied on the majority of the products it sells at the rate of 17% on the invoiced value. The Company experienced no product returns and has recorded no reserve for returns for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.

(b) Service revenue

Service revenue is derived from energy-saving technical services, project management or
sub-contracting services that are not an element of the arrangement for the sale of products. These services are generally billed on a time-cost plus basis, for the period of service provided, which is generally from two to three months.

Revenue is recognized, net of business taxes, when the service is rendered and accepted by the customer.

(c) Project revenue

For energy-saving reconstruction projects, the Company follows the percentage-of-completion method under ASC Subtopic 605-35, “Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts” to recognize revenues for energy-saving reconstruction projects that require significant modification or customization or installation for a term of service period exceeding 12 months. Advance payments from customers and amounts billed to clients in excess of revenue recognized are recorded as receipt in advance. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company did not recognize any project revenue.
 
5

 
(d) Interest income

Interest income is recognized on a time apportionment basis, taking into account the principal amounts outstanding and the interest rates applicable.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, do not bear interest and are due within the contractual payment terms, generally 30 to 90 days from shipment. Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customer's financial condition, the customer’s credit-worthiness and their payment history. Accounts receivable outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are considered past due. Past due balances over 90 days and over a specified amount are reviewed individually for collectability. At the end of each period, the Company specifically evaluates each individual customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions to monitor the progress of the collection of accounts receivable. The Company will consider an allowance for doubtful accounts for any estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. For the receivables that are past due or not being paid according to payment terms, the appropriate actions are taken to exhaust all means of collection, including seeking legal resolution in a court of law.

The payment terms for our accounts receivable from each source of revenue is set forth below:

Revenue items
 
General payment terms:
1.
Sales of products
 
(a) 10% of the contract value will be paid by the customer upon signing the contract.
 
(b) 50% of the contract value will be paid by the customer after the physical inspection (with a credit term from 30 to 90 days).
 
(c) 30 to 35% of the contract value will be paid upon the delivery to the customer (with a credit term from 30 to 90 days).
 
(d) 5 to 10% of the contract value will be paid within 12 months (from the delivery date) as warranty retention for the product.                   
       
2.
Services
 
(a) 10 to 15 % of the contract value will be paid by the customer upon signing the contract.
 
(b) The remaining contract value will be paid by the customer upon the completion of the service (with a credit term from 30 to 90 days).
       
3.
Projects
 
Payments based on the achievement of certain milestones to be made over the term of the project.

In general, accounts receivables with aging within 90 days, between 91 and 180 days, and between 181 and 360 days represent approximately 30-40%, 50-60%, and 5%-15%, respectively, of the total accounts receivable. The Company is highly aware the risk of default, and as a result, we control accounts receivable with aging above 1 year with 1% of the total accounts receivable.

For most of our contracts, our customers are generally large or stated-owned construction contractors or developers mainly engaged in government-sponsored infrastructure projects such as large hydraulic/aqua-engineering projects, power plants and urban sewage network projects in the PRC. Usually, these infrastructure projects are undertaken in a number of phases over a certain period of time. Our flow control equipment components are generally considered as major or significant components in the development phase of these infrastructure projects. In our industry practice, we are paid by these construction contractors and/or developers when they have been paid by the local government or state-owned enterprises after the full inspection of each milestone during the construction phase. Given that the construction of these infrastructure projects are very large in size and complex and requires a high quality level in completion, the inspection process may take a considerable amount of time. Therefore, we may not collect the accounts receivable on a timely manner or only after a period longer than our agreed payment terms.
 
6


We have a high level of assurance on the recoverability of these accounts receivable, based on our ongoing assessment of the customer’s credit-worthiness and their payment history. These customers are usually large state-owned corporations with good credit ratings. At the end of each period, we specifically evaluate the structure and collectability of accounts receivable and for receivables that are past due or not being paid according to the payment terms, we take appropriate action to exhaust all means of collection, including seeking legal resolution in a court of law. For customers with large amounts of accounts receivable, we may take other steps, such as limiting sales and changing payment terms and request forms of security. We will consider an adjustment to the allowance for doubtful accounts for any estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments.

Account balances are charged off against the allowance for doubtful accounts after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

Product warranty

Under the terms of the contracts, the Company offers the customers a free 12-months of product warranty on a case-by–case basis, depending upon the type of customer, and the nature and size of the infrastructure project. Under such arrangements, a portion of the project contract balance (usually 5-10% of contract value) is withheld by a customer for 12 months, until the product warranty has expired. The Company has not experienced any material returns under this warranty provision. As such, no reserve for product warranty has been provided for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market (net realizable value), with the cost being determined on a weighted average method. Costs include material, labor and manufacturing overhead costs. Quarterly, the Company reviews historical sales activity to determine excess, slow moving items and potentially obsolete items and also evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand. The Company provides inventory allowances based on excess and obsolete inventories determined principally by customer demand. As of March 31, 2010, the Company did not record an allowance for obsolete inventories, nor have there been any write-offs.

Plant and equipment, net

Plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses, if any. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line basis over the following expected useful lives from the date on which they become fully operational and after taking into account their estimated residual values:

   
Depreciable life
 
Residual value
Plant and machinery
 
3 – 20 years
 
5%
Furniture, fixture and equipment
 
5 – 8 years
 
5%

Expenditure for repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred. When assets have been retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.

Finance leases

Leases that transfer substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership to the lessee, other than legal title, are accounted for as finance leases. Substantially all of the risks or benefits of ownership are deemed to have been transferred if any one of the four criteria is met: (i) transfer of ownership to the lessee at the end of the lease term, (ii) the lease containing a bargain purchase option, (iii) the lease term exceeding 75% of the estimated economic life of the leased asset, and (iv) the present value of the minimum lease payments exceeding 90% of the fair value. At the inception of a finance lease, the Company as the lessee records an asset and an obligation at an amount equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments. The leased asset is amortized over the shorter of the lease term or its estimated useful life if title does not transfer to the Company, while the leased asset is depreciated in accordance with the Company’s normal depreciation policy if the title is to eventually transfer to the Company. The periodic lease payments made during the lease term are allocated between a reduction in the obligation and interest element using the effective interest method in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Subtopic 835-30, “Imputation of Interest”.

Stock-based compensation

The Company adopts ASC Topic 718, "Stock Compensation", ("ASC 718") using the fair value method. Under ASC Topic 718, the stock-based compensation is measured using the Black-Scholes Option-Pricing model on the date of grant.

For non-employee stock-based compensation, the Company adopts ASC Subtopic 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” Stock-based compensation related to non-employees is accounted for based on the fair value of the related stock or options or the fair value of the services on the grant date, whichever is more readily determinable in accordance with ASC 718.

In accordance with ASC Topic 470-20 “Debt with conversion and other options”, the warrants and related convertible notes should be accounted for as two separate instruments (equity and debt instruments). The accounting for these instruments reflects the notion that the consideration received upon issuance must be allocated between equity and debt components. Proceeds from the sale of a debt instrument with stock purchase warrants are allocated to the two elements, based on the relative fair values of the debt instruments without the warrants themselves at time of issuance. The portion of the proceeds allocated to the warrants is accounted for as paid-in capital. The remainder of the proceeds is allocated to the debt instruments portion of the transaction This usually results in a discount, which is to be amortized over the period of debt using the interest method..

Income Taxes

The Company adopts ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes which prescribes the recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. In addition, the guidance requires the determination of whether the benefits of tax positions will be more likely than not sustained upon an audit based upon the technical merits of the tax position. For tax positions that are determined to be more likely sustainable than not upon audit, the Company recognizes the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement in the financial statements. For tax positions that are not determined to be more likely sustainable than not upon audit, the Company does not recognize any portion of the benefit in the financial statements. The guidance provides for de-recognition, classification, penalties and interest, accounting in interim periods and disclosure.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company did not have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions. As of March 31, 2010, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions.

The Company conducts its majority of business in the PRC and is subject to tax in that jurisdiction. As a result of its business activities, the Company files tax returns that are subject to examination by a foreign tax authority. For the period ended March 31, 2010, the Company filed and cleared its 2009 PRC tax return by such tax authority.

Foreign currencies translation

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

The reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar ("US$"). The Company's subsidiaries in the PRC, Nengfa Energy and Sales Company maintain their books and records in the local currency of the PRC, Renminbi ("RMB"), which is the primary currency of the economic environment in which these entities operate.

In general, for consolidation purposes, assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the US$ are translated into US$, in accordance with ASC Topic 830-30, “Translation of Financial Statement, using the exchange rate on the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the period. The gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity.

Translation of amounts from RMB into US$ has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective period:
 
   
March 31,
2010
   
March 31,
2009
 
Period-end RMB:US$1 exchange rate

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2010 AND 2009

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in this report and is qualified in its entirety by the foregoing.

REVENUES

Total revenues were $2,840,483 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $2,419,832 for the corresponding period in 2009. Total revenues increased by $420,651, a 17% increase for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

In the middle of 2008, the Chinese government announced more flexible monetary policies and financial policies. The Chinese government then indicated it will invest close to 4 trillion RMB to stimulate domestic demand and announced ten policies to promote growth. The Chinese government undertook to promote economic stability and growth through domestic projects on civil engineering, basic infrastructure, constructions for environmental protection and reconstruction. 2010 is the last year of the "Eleventh Five-Year" emission reduction targets. It is also the first year for China to put forward its 40-45% emission reduction target, which is a point of emphasis for the Chinese government.  Mr. Zhang Shaochun, the Vice Minister of Finance for the central government, has stated that the special funding for the energy-saving emission reduction industry will be 70% more than the prior year, which will be up to 500 billion RMB. The government intends to promote large-scaled energy-saving and efficiency products and will support key energy-saving emission reduction projects.

In a 2010 government report from the office of the Chinese Premier, Wen Jiabao, it was stated that: "We shall put greater efforts on development of low-carbon technologies, promotion of efficient energy-saving technologies, and actively develop new energy and renewable energy…."  The report further stated that the country "…should attempt to engage in construction characterized by industrial carbon emissions system and consumption patterns.” This indicates that in 2010 and thereafter low carbon initiatives "…will become a new impetus and engine for economic development, and it will become a new weathervane for construction of leading industrial systems and consumption patterns.”

The Ministry of Finance is increasing investment in the development of a low-carbon economy. The government sees promotion of energy-efficiency resulting in economic benefits and promoting growth in higher value technologies and industries. Therefore the expectation is that government support for energy saving projects will be widespread and touch on many aspects of the economy, including geo-water sources, energy management contracts, efficient motors and other energy-saving elements in the industry. This will promote the development of energy efficiency, industrial energy efficiency and energy-efficient power transmission and distribution.

On April 6, 2010, State Council of China approved the “Opinion on Accelerating the Implementation of Energy Management Contract to Promote the Development of Energy Service Industry,” (“the Opinion”)  which was proposed by the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance, People’s Bank of China and the State Taxation Administration. A series of new tax benefits will stimulate China’s domestic energy conservation projects and services development. The policies should greatly benefit Nengfa Energy’s energy saving business which fits within the government stimulus policies for building energy saving infrastructure projects for municipalities and industrial companies. We expect significant growth in all our lines of business in 2010.

Product Revenues

Product revenues are derived principally from the sale of self-manufactured products relating to energy- saving flow control equipment and wind-energy equipment. Product revenues were $2,514,232, or 89% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $2,101,826, or 87% of total revenues, for the corresponding period in 2009. Product revenues increased by $412,406, a 20% increase, over the same period in 2009. This increase is primarily due to the increase in new contracts for the products.

Service Revenues

Service revenues are derived principally from energy-saving technical services that are not an element of an arrangement for the sale of products. These services are generally billed on a time-cost plus basis. Revenue is recognized, net of business taxes when service is rendered and accepted by the customers. Service revenues were $326,251, or 11% of total revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $318,006, or 13% of total revenues, for the corresponding period in 2009. Service revenues increased by $8,245, a 3% increase over the same period in 2009. This increase is primarily due to the increase in service contracts.

Project Revenues

Project revenues are derived principally from energy-saving, re-engineering projects that require significant modification, customization and installation. The Company applies the percentage-of-completion method to recognize project revenues. There was no project revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2010, or the same period ended in 2009. The Company is conducting feasibility studies with respect to several energy-saving projects, and we anticipate that project revenues will be reported in future periods if the projects are implemented as expected.

COSTS AND EXPENSES

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues consists primarily of material costs, direct labor, depreciation and manufacturing overhead, which are directly attributable to the manufacture of products and the rendering of services. Total cost of revenues was $2,161,032 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $1,740,370 for the corresponding three month period in 2009, an increase of $420,662 or approximately 24%. This increase was primarily due to the increase in products sold during this period.

The overall gross profit for the Company was $679,451 (24% margin) for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $679,462 (28% margin) for the corresponding three month period in 2009, a decrease of $11. Although operating revenue in the first quarter of 2010 increased steadily by 17% over the prior period, the cost of revenue increased by 24% over the prior period, resulting in a 4% decrease in the gross profit margin from the 2009 period to 2010 period.

Cost of Products

Total cost of products was $1,948,347 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $1,565,874 for the corresponding three month period in 2009, an increase of $382,473 or approximately 24%. This increase is primarily due to the increase in the number of products sold.

The gross profit for products was $565,885(23%) for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $535,952(25%) for the corresponding three month period in 2009, an increase of $29,933 or approximately 6%. This increase is primarily due to the increase in product revenues being greater than the increase in cost of products.

Cost of Services

The cost of services was $212,685 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $174,496 for the corresponding three month period in 2009, an increase of $38,189 or approximately 22%. This increase is primarily due to an increase in service contracts.

The gross profit for services was $113,566 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $143,510 for the corresponding period in 2009, a decrease of $29,944 or approximately 21%. This decrease is primarily due to the period-over-period increase in cost of services exceeding the period-over-period increase in services revenues.

Operating Expenses

Total operating expenses were $172,487 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $194,018 for the corresponding three month period in 2009, a decrease of $21,531, or approximately 11%. This decrease is primarily due to the decrease in selling and marketing expenses.

Selling and Marketing Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses were $17,747 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $48,825 for the corresponding three month period in 2009, a decrease of $31,078 or approximately 64%. This decrease is primarily due to an increased number of contracts with lower gross margin during this period. These contracts have relative lower selling and marketing expenses, and therefore reduced the total amount of selling and marketing expenses.

11


General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were $154,740 for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $145,193 for the corresponding three month period in 2009, an increase of $,9,547 or approximately 7%.

INCOME FROM OPERATIONS

Income from operations was $506,964, for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as compared to $485,444 for the corresponding three month period in 2009, an increase of $21,520 or approximately 4%. This increase is primarily due to the 11% decrease in operating expenses.

Other (expense) Income

Other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $80,401, as compared to other income of $18,016 for the corresponding three month period in 2009, an absolute difference of $98,417. This difference is primarily due to $44,718 in interest expense, resulting from the issuance of $960,000 of convertible promissory notes during the first quarter of 2010, as well as $30,043 in interest expense, resulting from a financial lease for two machines used in the production of our products, incurred during the first quarter 2010, compared to $10,159 of other income recognized in the in the first quarter of 2009.

Income Tax Expense

For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and corresponding three month period in 2009, income tax expense was $59,380 and $61,547, respectively. The Company continues to enjoy the tax holiday in the PRC due to Nengfa Energy's foreign company status. During 2007, the Tieling City local government tax bureau in the PRC approved Nengfa Energy as a foreign investment enterprise. Hence, retroactively effective from January 1, 2007, Nengfa Energy is entitled to a two-year exemption from corporate income tax and a reduced corporate income tax rate of 12.5% for the following three years.

As of March 31, 2010, the operations in the United States of America have resulted in $1,397,034 of cumulative net operating losses, which can be carried forward to offset future taxable income. The net operating loss carry forward will begin to expire in 2029, if not utilized. The Company has provided for a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets of $474,991 on the expected future tax benefits from the net operating loss carry forward as management believes it is more likely than not that these assets will not be realized in the future.

Effective from January 1, 2008, the Corporate Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China (the“New CIT Law”) became operative. Under the New CIT Law, Nengfa Energy, as a foreign investment enterprise, continues to enjoy the unexpired tax holiday of 50%-reduction on the unified income tax through 2011, subject to a transitional policy. The Sales Company is a domestic company, which is subject to the unified statutory income tax rate of 25%.

The Company’s effective income tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were 12.5%.

NET INCOME

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $367,183, as compared to $441,913 for the corresponding three month period in 2009, a decrease of $74,730 or approximately 17%. This decrease is primarily due to a $30,286 increase in interest expense in the period as a result of a financial lease for two numerical control machines used in the production of our products, and the issuance of $960,000 of convertible promissory notes on February 24, 2010 and March 4, 2010, for which a non-cash interest expense of $ 44,718 was recognized in the three month period ended March 31, 2010.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Operating activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, net cash provided by operating activities was $3,139,566. This was attributable primarily to net income of $367,183, adjusted by non-cash items of depreciation of $72,674, non-cash interest expense of $44,718 and a $2,655,214 increase in working capital. The increase in working capital in the first three months of 2010 was due primarily to the decrease in accounts receivable by $5,539,111 and decrease in retention receivable by $573,268, an increase in inventories by $581,915, the increase in prepayment and other receivable by $1,936,703, a decrease in the accounts payable by $318,645, a decrease in customer deposits by $30,809, an increase in value added tax receivable by $348,160 and income tax payable of $142,136, and an increase in other payables and accrued liabilities by $76,653 in this period.

On December 31, 2009, our outstanding accounts receivable was $12,510,875, which was due to the delay in the installation and operational testing of a number of products. For these contracts, the term of revenue recognition stated that part of payment had to be made after the installation and operating test. Therefore the delay in installation resulted in delayed payments and a significant amount of accounts receivable. By March 31, 2010, some of these delayed products have been installed and operating tests have been completed, and payments have been made. Therefore the amount of accounts receivable at March 31, 2010 had decreased by $5,539,111 from December 31, 2009. This money was used for the facility construction and project prepayment.  For the three month period ended March 31, 2010, the Company had accounts receivable turnover of 309 days.

Most of our customers make payments in accordance with the agreed payment terms in a timely manner. In rare cases, we may offer extended payment terms to certain customers for equipment sales. These customers are usually large state-owned corporations with good credit ratings. At the end of each period, we evaluate the structure and collectability of accounts receivable and for those receivables that are past due or not being paid according to the payment terms, we take appropriate actions to exhaust all means of collection, including seeking legal resolution in a court of law.

At March 31, 2010, the Company had accounts receivable of $6,973,835, 96% and 4% of the accounts receivable are product revenue accounts receivable and service revenue account receivable, respectively. The accounts receivable with aging within 90 days, between 91 and 180 days, and between 181 and 365 days, and above 365 days are $2,111,063, $4,081,290, $555,793 and $217,689, respectively, representing 30%, 59%, 8% and 3% of the total accounts receivable, respectively, as of March 31, 2010. The Company restricted the accounts receivable with aging above 1 year within 1% of the total account receivables. The Company does not have any off-balance-sheet credit exposure related to its customers. The detailed account receivable aging, starting from the invoice date, by March 31, 2010 is as following:

We offer the customers a free 12-months product warranty on a case-by-case basis, depending upon the type of customers, nature and size of the infrastructure projects. Under such arrangements, a portion of the project contract balance (usually 5-10% of contract value) is withheld by a customer for 12 months, until the product warranty has expired. On March 31 2010, the retention receivables were $301,637.

In addition, it is the Company's practice to build up a larger inventory to be able to fulfill its contracts during the installation of the large infrastructure projects. The increase in inventories of $581,915 reflects a reasonable inventory level which corresponds to a number of contracts for products which have not been delivered or recognized as revenue by March 31, 2010. The reason for the large increase in the prepayments and other receivables of $1,936,703 as compared to year end December 31, 2009, is due to increases in prepayments to vendors for raw materials,, prepayment to projects and the future contingent payments on the purchase of new plant and equipment and third party contractors. During this period, a significant percentage of revenue was generated by completing the follow-up contracts from 2009. Therefore there was a decrease in customer deposits of $30,809 and value added tax receivable of $348,160. The Company started to pay an 50% reduced rate of tax in the P.R.C in 2009. Compared to December 31, 2009, the income tax payable decreased $142,136 for the three month period ended March 31, 2010. The increase of $76,653 in other payables and accrued liabilities is due to the increase in accruals and other payables.
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2009, net cash used in operating activities was $351,166. This was primarily attributable to our net income of $441,913, adjusted by non-cash items of depreciation $74,428, and a $867,507 decrease in working capital. Negative cash flows from operations in the first three months of 2009 were due primarily to the increase in accounts receivable by $1,230,662, inventories by $646,847, prepayments and other receivables by $265,284, and the decrease in other payables and accrued liabilities by $15,104, partially offset by the increase in accounts payable by $1,240,372, customer deposits by $3,050, and value added tax payables by $46,968 in this period.

The large increase in accounts receivable of $1,230,662 and inventories of $646,847, an increase of 13.8% and 42.6% over the accounts receivables and inventories balances at December 31, 2008, are mainly due to several large contracts. For these large contracts, the construction and installation period is much longer. The collection period for receivables is also longer. In addition, we have to produce a larger inventory in order to prepare for the installation anticipated for these large projects. The reason for the increase in the prepayments and other receivables of $265,284, a 40.6% increase over the prepayments and other receivables balance at December 31, 2008, is due to increases in prepayment to vendors for raw materials, prepayment to equipment vendors and prepaid operating expense. The company expects the cost of the raw material will increase in the coming year. In order to hedge the increase in raw material costs, we have signed more purchase contracts in advance with the suppliers and hence increasing the prepayments. The increase in accounts payable of $1,240,372 corresponds to the increased purchase of materials required for the production for several large contracts. The increase in customer deposits of $3,050 is due to the increase in sales. An increase of $46,968 in value added tax payables is due to increased value added tax payable this period. The decrease of $15,103 in other payables and accrued liabilities are due to the decrease in rent payable, accrued expenses and payable to equipment vendors, and an increase in income tax payable.

Investing activities
 
In 2008, the Company was approved by the local government to construct a new manufacturing facility for energy-saving products and equipment in Yingzhou District Industrial Park, Tieling City, Liaoning Province, in the PRC. Total estimated construction cost of the new manufacturing facility is approximately $16 million (including land use rights for approximately $3 million). The construction project is expected to be fully completed in late 2010.

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, net cash used in investing activities was $3,265,497, and was primarily attributable to the purchase of plant and equipment for $13,054 and the payments for construction in progress of $3,253,693. There were proceeds of $1,250 from the disposal of plant and equipment.

As of March 31, 2010, the Company has incurred and capitalized $11,281,600 as construction in progress.

The Company currently rents its manufacturing facility from a third party. The current facility has a designed capacity of approximately 6,000 tons per year. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company utilized approximately 70% of its capacity. The new energy equipment manufacturing facility currently under construction will have two high standard numerical control machines installed, plus the current equipment, which will be moved to the new facility. If fully operated, the new facility will have a designed capacity to manufacture approximately 20,000 tons of flow control equipment on a yearly basis, and will also be able to manufacture 300 sets of key components of wind power equipment annually. Upon completion, the estimated manufacturing capacity of the new facility will be more than three times the capacity of the Company’s current facility.
 
14


The new facility and the installation of new and high quality machines should enhance the Company’s equipment manufacturing capacity and improve the productivity and precision level of its products. Furthermore, the Company will have the ability to expand the sale of its flow control equipment products into other markets.

Financing activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2010, net cash provided by financing activities was $754,357 , of which $145,643 was attributable to the payments on finance lease and $900,000 was generated by a private placement financing of convertible promissory notes.

During the first quarter of 2010, the Company sold, through a private placement to two accredited investors, convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $960,000 and warrants to purchase 160,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The notes bear simple interest at the rate of 6% per year and, absent an “event of default,” are payable in shares of the Company’s common stock. Provided an "event of default" has not occurred and is not then continuing, the notes will convert upon the earlier to occur of (i) the commencement of trading of the Company's common stock on a major US stock exchange, or (ii) one year after issuance. Upon conversion, the holders of the notes shall receive such number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the then-outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest on the note by (b) the then-current conversion price, which initially shall be $3.00 per share. The conversion price is subject to adjustment for stock dividends, splits, combinations and similar events. The notes are secured by a security interest in and lien upon all of the Company’s assets. The warrants, which are exercisable for shares of common stock at an initial exercise price of $4.00 per share, are not exercisable until three months after issuance and will terminate five years thereafter. The exercise price is subject to adjustment for stock dividends, splits, combinations and similar events. The Company has agreed to provide the investors with “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes and exercise of the warrants

As the Company adopts ASC Topic 470-20 “ Debt with conversion and other options”, the convertible notes are recorded and in accordance with this topic. Although this accounting treatment has affected our balance sheet and income statement by increasing the stock based compensation and non-cash interest expense, it will not affect our cash flow.

We anticipate we will need additional working capital in 2010 and beyond to fund the Company’s new business plans to establish a manufacturing base for new energy equipment and to develop comprehensive energy saving infrastructure projects for municipalities and energy conservation projects that include blast furnace power generation, low concentration coal bed methane power generation and bio-mass power generation. Furthermore, we may consider expanding the Company’s business lines. In order to maintain our lead position in energy- efficient flow control equipment manufacturing, we anticipate a continued and steady growth of the manufacture and sale of our flow control equipment. We may decide to pursue additional investments through the sale of equity or equity linked securities or debt financing to obtain the additional cash resources to fund our business and other future developments; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funds on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. If we cannot obtain debt or equity financing to fund our working capital needs, our business development plan may be delayed and we may not be able to achieve the estimated revenue growth from service and projects or we may not be able to achieve our total revenues projections for this year.

We believe that the relatively moderate rate of inflation over the past few years has not had a significant impact on our results of operations.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
 
We do not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements.

IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
We do not expect adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.      Legal Proceedings.

On May 21, 2007, a civil complaint Robert Dawley v. NF Energy Saving Corp. of America, et al. was filed in the United States District Court, Middle District of Florida, Orlando, Civil No. 6:07-cv-872-Orl-18DAB. The complaint accused the defendant of breaching a contract for payment of money that was signed by Sam Winer, former Chief Executive Officer of the Company, before the commencement of the Company’s reverse merger. After being initially dismissed by the court, the action was authorized to proceed on November 16, 2007. A trial was held in the United States District Court, Middle District of Florida, Orlando on October 16, 2008. The District Court issued a judgment on December 11, 2008, awarding the plaintiff the sum of $400,000 against the Company, plus prejudgment interest in the amount of $132,821.92, with continuing interest of $131.51 per day on the $400,000 obligation until it is paid. The Court further adjudged that the plaintiff shall surrender certain shares of common stock he holds in the Company upon payment of the $400,000. In the event the plaintiff fails to surrender the specified shares of stock after payment, the Company may cancel the stock. Any payments or collection under the judgment shall be credited first to interest.

On January 6, 2009, the Company filed a notice of appeal 09-10140-B in the United States Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit from the District Court’s judgment. The Company has also accrued $200,000 for this contingent liability to the statement of operation in 2008. In addition, the Company’s directors, Mr. Gang Li and Ms. Li Hua Wang have personally agreed to guarantee and bear all contingent liabilities and costs to be incurred from this litigation claim.

On April 1, 2010, the Eleventh Circuit issued a unanimous opinion reversing the District Court’s Judgment on the grounds that Dawley was not entitled to the relief that he sought and that the law did not support the District Court’s Judgment against NF Energy. The Eleventh Circuit, to the contrary entered Judgment in NF Energy’s favor. NF Energy has filed a Bill of Costs seeking an award of its costs on appeal, which total less than $1,000, from Dawley.

Counsel for Dawley has filed a Petition for Re- Hearing by the Eleventh Circuit panel that heard the appeal. At this point, the Company does not believe that the judgment would have a material impact or significant contingencies to the Company.
