PAY88, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Organization
The Company was originally incorporated on March 22, 2005 under the laws of the State of New Hampshire as Pay88, Ltd. On July 7, 2005, Pay88, Inc., a Nevada corporation, was formed. Subsequently, the New Hampshire corporation was merged with and into the Nevada corporation. On September 5, 2006, Pay88, Inc. (“Pay88”) entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with Chongqing Qianbao Technology Ltd., a limited Liability company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“Qianbao”), Ying Bao (“Bao”), and Chongqing Yahu Information Development Co., Ltd., a limited liability company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“Yahu”; and together with Bao, the “Qianbao Shareholders”). Pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, Pay88 agreed to acquire Qianbao at a closing held simultaneously therewith by purchasing from the Qianbao Shareholders all of their respective shares of Qianbao’s registered capital stock, which represent 100% of the issued and outstanding registered capital of Qianbao. In consideration therefore, Pay88 agreed to issue to the Qianbao Shareholders an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of Pay88 Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, to be allocated between the Qianbao Shareholders as follows: 4,950,000 shares to Yahu and 50,000 shares to Bao. Mr. Tao Fan, a brother of Mr. Guo Fan, a director and officer of Pay88, is the Chief Executive Officer of Yahu and owns 5% of its issued shares of capital stock.
The 5,000,000 shares of Pay88 Series A Preferred Stock was convertible into 14,000,000 shares of Pay88 common stock (see Note 9). The holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock were entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock into which such shares of Series A Preferred Stock could be converted. With the issuance of the 5,000,000 shares of Pay88 Series A Preferred Stock, Qianbao’s stockholders have voting control of Pay88 (approximately 58%) and therefore the acquisition was accounted for as a reverse acquisition. The combination of the two companies is recorded as a recapitalization of Qianbao pursuant to which Qianbao is treated as the continuing entity although Pay88 is the legal acquirer. Accordingly, the Company’s historical financial statements are those of Qianbao.
Qianbao was incorporated on April 24, 2006 in Chongqing, China. Qianbao is currently primarily engaged in the sale of prepaid online video game cards that allow the user to play online video games for designated allotted times. Qianbao also has undertaken steps/plans to build a web distribution platform to provide effective services for connecting diversified service providers and consumer product suppliers to retailers and consumers in the Chinese market. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will successfully accomplish these steps/plans and it is uncertain the Company will achieve a profitable level of operations from this new line of business due to limited resources of the Company and possible change of other economic factors in China.
Pay88, Inc. and Chongqing Qianbao Technology Ltd. are hereafter collectively referred to as (the “Company”).
Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included the accounts of Pay88 (Parent) and its wholly owned subsidiary (“Qianbao”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NOTE 1 – Basis of Presentation (Continued)
Going Concern
The Company has incurred a net loss of $698,883 and $2,117,805, which included the amortization of deferred financing cost and amortization of debt discount and cash discount of $425,210 and $1,428,526 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively. In addition, the Company has incurred significant losses and had negative cash flow from operations since April 24, 2006 (date of inception) and has an accumulated deficit of $13,721,048 at September 30, 2008. Substantial portions of the losses are attributable to consulting and professional fees. Furthermore, the Company’s gross margin rate from its current operations was very low. It was approximately 2.2% and 2.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. These factors raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as going concern.
There can be no assurance that sufficient funds will be generated during the next twelve months or thereafter from the Company’s current operations, or that funds will be available from external sources such as debt or equity financings or other potential sources. The lack of additional capital could force the Company to curtail or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material adverse effect on its business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company received net proceeds totaling $1,346,992 from its regulation S offering after the payment of the offering cost of $408,040.
The Company has undertaken further steps as part of a plan to improve operations with the goal of sustaining our operations for the next twelve months and beyond to address our lack of liquidity by raising additional funds, either in the form of debt or equity or some combination thereof. The Company is planning to expand its current operations to increase its sales volume. The Company is also seeking for the opportunities to diversify its operations, which including other more profitable product lines and to improve its current gross margin. However, there can be no assurance that the Company can successfully accomplish these steps and or business plans, and it is uncertain that the Company will achieve a profitable level of operations and be able to obtain additional financing.
There can be no assurance that any additional financings will be available to the Company on satisfactory terms and conditions, if at all. In the event we are unable to continue as a going concern, we may elect or be required to seek protection from our creditors by filing a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or may be subject to an involuntary petition in bankruptcy. To date, management has not considered this alternative, nor does management view it as a likely occurrence.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Reclassifications
Certain items in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to confirm to the current period’s presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Effective January 1, 2008, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements “ (“SFAS No. 157” ) and SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS No. 159”). In February 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157” (“FSP 157-2), which delayed the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all non-financial assets and liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis, until January 1, 2009. We have not yet determined the impact that the implementation of FSP 157-2 will have on our non-financial assets and liabilities which are not recognized on a recurring basis; however, we do not anticipate the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The partial adoption of SFAS No. 157 and the adoption of SFAS No. 159 did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2007, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued Statement of Position 07-1, “Clarification of the Scope of the Audit and Accounting Guide Investment Companies and Accounting by Parent Companies and Equity Method Investors for Investments in Investment Companies” (“SOP 07-1”). SOP 07-1 provides guidance for determining whether an entity is within the scope of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide Investment Companies (the “Audit Guide”). SOP 07-1 was originally determined to be effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2007, however, on February 6, 2008, FASB issued a final Staff Position indefinitely deferring the effective date and prohibiting early adoption of SOP 07-1 while addressing implementation issues.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R),”Business Combinations” (“SFAS No. 141(R)”), which establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in an acquiree, including the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited and the Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that the adoption will have on its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS No. 160”), which will change the accounting and reporting for minority interests, which will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and classified as a component of equity within the consolidated balance sheets. SFAS No. 160 is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited and the Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that the adoption will have on its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In December 2007, the FASB ratified the consensus in EITF Issue No. 07-1, “Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements” (EITF 07-1). EITF 07-1 defines collaborative arrangements and requires collaborators to present the result of activities for which they act as the principal on a gross basis and report any payments received from (made to) the other collaborators based on other applicable authoritative accounting literature, and in the absence of other applicable authoritative literature, on a reasonable, rational and consistent accounting policy is to be elected. EITF 07-1 also provides for disclosures regarding the nature and purpose of the arrangement, the entity’s rights and obligations, the accounting policy for the arrangement and the income statement classification and amounts arising from the agreement. EITF 07-1 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and will be applied as a change in accounting principle retrospectively for all collaborative arrangements existing as of the effective date. The Company has not yet evaluated the potential impact of adopting EITF 07-1 on its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
F - 8
Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)
In March 2008, the FASB” issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment to FASB Statement No. 133” (“SFAS No. 161”). SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption encouraged. The Company has not yet evaluated the potential impact of adopting SFAS No. 161 on its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets”. This FSP amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. The Company is required to adopt FSP 142-3 on January 1, 2009. The guidance in FSP 142-3 for determining the useful life of a recognized intangible asset shall be applied prospectively to intangible assets acquired after adoption, and the disclosure requirements shall be applied prospectively to all intangible assets recognized as of, and subsequent to, adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of FSP 142-3 on its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS No. 162”). SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (the GAAP hierarchy). SFAS No. 162 will become effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 162 will have a material effect on its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) 14-1 “Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)” (“FSP APB 14-1”). FSP APB 14-1 requires the issuer of certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash (or other assets) on conversion to separately account for the liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. FSP APB 14-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 on a retroactive basis. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of FSP APB 14-1 on its condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.
F - 9
NOTE 2 – Interim Financial Statements
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2008 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions for Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position as of September 30, 2008 and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. The financial data and other information disclosed in the notes to the interim financial statements related to these periods are unaudited. The results for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2008 is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent quarter or the entire year ending December 31, 2008.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC’s rules and regulations. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2007, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10K filed on March 31, 2008 with SEC.
The consolidated financial statements as December 31, 2007 have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but do not include all disclosures required by the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
NOTE 3 - Net Loss Per Common Share
The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement Number 128, “Earnings per Share,” (“EPS”) which requires presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS.
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed similarly to basic loss per share except that it includes the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities were converted. Diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per share, as the effect of potentially dilutive securities (convertible debt – 2,000,750 at of September 30, 2008 and 1,155,000 at September 30, 2007 and warrants – 4,620,000, at September 30, 2008 and 2,310,000 at September 30, 2007), are anti-dilutive.

Depreciation expense was $15,861 and $12,087 for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and $45,857 and $35,195 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
The Company purchased three units of office space in July 2006 in Chongqing China. In the People’s Republic of China, land is owned by the State. The right for the Company to use the land expires in 2037 and may be extended at that time. Accordingly, the office units and improvement represent those costs related to the buildings and improvement.
NOTE 6 – Website platform development
On July 16, 2008, the Company signed a website platform development contract with Ziya Company, a Chinese information technology company located in Hang Zhou, China. The Company and Ziya will work jointly in the development of a state-of-the-art, online gaming transaction platform to be utilized internally by Qianbao in the marketing of online prepaid game card products throughout Chongqing and other major cities in China. On July 29, 2008, the Company paid Ziya Company 1,000,000 RMB, approximately $147,280 (translated as of September 30, 2008) to initiate the website platform project. The estimated development period is for six months. The Company is applying the provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (“SOP”) No. 98-1, “Accounting for Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use”, and the Emerging Issues Task Force Issue (“EITF”) No. 00-02, “Accounting for Website Development Costs”. The rules specify different stages of development and the related accounting guidance that accompanies each stage. Purchased third party software and related implementation costs and internal and external costs incurred related to the application development stage are capitalized and included in other assets under the caption of Website platform development. Such capitalized costs will be amortized using the straight-line method over three years of the estimated useful life after the new platform is in use. All costs incurred in the planning stage are expensed as incurred and those costs to be incurred in the operating stage will be expensed as incurred.

The Company received net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes of $652,237.

The Company received net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes of $707,488.
Both of the Notes bear interest at the rate of prime plus 4% per annum (9% per annum at September 30, 2008), payable in either (a) cash equal to 110% of 8.33% of the initial principal amount or (b) absent any event of default, in shares of the Company’s common stock at the lesser of (i) $1.00 per share or (ii) 80% of the average of the closing bid prices of the Company’s common stock for the 20 trading days preceding the payment date at the option of the Company. Said payments commence on March 12, 2008 and all accrued but unpaid interest and any other amounts due thereon is due and payable on March 12, 2009, or earlier upon acceleration following an event of default, as defined in the Notes.
All principal and accrued interest on the both Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the election of the Purchasers at any time at the conversion price of $1.00 per share, subject to adjustment for certain issuances, transactions or events that would result in “full ratchet” dilution to the holders.
Both Notes contained same default events which, if triggered and not timely cured (if curable), will result in a default interest rate of an additional 5% per annum. The Notes also contain antidilution provisions with respect to certain securities issuances, including the issuances of stock for less than $1.00 per share. In addition, the Company has to pay the Purchasers 120% plus accrued interest of the outstanding principal amount if the Company is no longer listed on the Bulletin Board, sells substantially all of its assets or Guo Fan is no longer the Chief Executive Officer.

NOTE 7 - Convertible Debt (Continued)
The option of each Purchaser, conversion of the Notes, or exercise of the Warrants, is subject to the restriction that such conversion or exercise, does not result in the Purchaser beneficially owning at any one time more that 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock.
Payment of the Notes along with the Company’s other obligations to the Purchasers is secured by all the assets of the Company and of its wholly-owned subsidiary Chongqinq Qianbao Technology Ltd., a limited liability company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“Qianbao”). Such obligations are also secured by a pledge of all the shares the Company holds in Qianbao and the Company’s 13,860,000 shares of common stock which was converted from 4,950,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock during 2007 (see Note 8), as well as personal guaranties of Guo Fan, the Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company, and by Tao Fan, the Chief Executive Officer of Qianbao and Chief Operating Officer and a director of the Company.
In connection with the transaction, the Company agreed to prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission within 30 days following the closing a registration statement on Form SB-2 for the purpose of registering for resale all of the shares of common stock underlying the Notes, If the Company fails to file such registration statement within such time, or if the registration statement is not declared effective within 91 days from September 16, 2007, the Company must pay monthly liquidated damages in cash equal to 2% of the principal amount of the Notes and purchase price of the Warrants. The Purchasers were also granted standard piggyback registration rights along with certain demand registration rights. The registration statement on Form SB-2 was declared effective as of October 30, 2007.
In connection with the first and second convertible debts, the Company recorded a cash discount of $810,000 and deferred finance costs of $140,275. Such deferred finance costs are being amortized over the life of the related debt. The Company also recorded a deferred debt discount in the amount of $1,500,000 to reflect the beneficial conversion feature of the convertible debt and the value of the warrants. The beneficial conversion feature was recorded pursuant to Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 00-27: “Application of EITF No. 98-5, Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios, to Certain Convertible Instruments”. In accordance with EITF 00-27, the Company evaluated the value of the beneficial conversion feature and recorded the amount of $333,533 as a reduction to the carrying amount of the convertible debt and as an addition to paid-in capital. Additionally, the relative fair value of the warrants $1,166,467 was calculated and recorded as a further reduction to the carrying amount of the convertible debt and as addition to paid-in capital. Unamortized amount of beneficial conversion feature and relative fair value of the warrants was $442,320 at September 30, 2008.
The Company is amortizing the discounts over the term of the debt. Amortization of the debt and cash discount for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $400,843 and $1,336,912, respectively, and the amortization is reported as a component of interest expense.

NOTE 9 - Commitments and Contingencies
Country Risk
As the Company’s principal operations are conducted in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”), the Company is subject to special considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America and Western Europe. These risks include, among others, risks associated with the political, economic and legal environments and foreign currency exchange limitations encountered in the PRC. The Company’s results of operations 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, among other things.
In addition, all of the Company’s transactions undertaken in the PRC are denominated in Chinese Yuan Renminbi (CNY), which must be converted into other currencies before remittance out of the PRC may be considered. Both the conversion of CNY into foreign currencies and the remittance of foreign currencies abroad require the approval of the PRC government.
Yahu Agreement
On August 3, 2005, the Company entered into a five year agreement with Chongqing Yahu Information Limited (“Yahu”). Yahu is a Chinese corporation formed by Mr. Tao Fan, a brother of Mr. Guo Fan, a significant stockholder, director and officer of the Company. As a result of the Share Purchase Agreement (see Note 1) Yahu owns 4,950,000 shares of Pay88 Series A Preferred Stock (see Note 1), representing approximately 53% voting control. The Agreement provides for two services to be provided to the Company by Yahu. The first service is the provision of all proprietary software needed to effectuate fund transfers business for customers between the U.S. and China. The second service to be provided is technical assistance in the areas of installation and future product support. This support includes assistance with all technical aspects of the software as well as problem resolution and general inquiries. Both of these services are to be provided to the Company by Yahu for a licensing fee that is based upon 20% of the gross fund transfer revenues. The use of the software will enable the Company to provide wire transfers from the U.S. to China. Although this agreement is in force, it has been dormant and we are presently not engaged and or inactive in the money transfer business.

Business Overview
Corporate Background
Pay88 was incorporated on March 22, 2005 under the name “Pay88, Ltd.” in the State of New Hampshire. We subsequently decided to reincorporate in the State of Nevada by merging with and into Pay88, Inc., a Nevada corporation formed for such purpose on July 7, 2005. Such merger was effectuated on August 9, 2005.
Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Chongqing Qianbao Technology Ltd. (“Qianbao”), a Chinese limited liability company, we are primarily engaged in the sale of prepaid multi player online game cards through our internet websites, http://www.iamseller.com, and http://www.17logo.com. We also offer for sale on such websites prepaid telephone cards and over 800 software products, including cooking and language software.

Our History
Between the date of our incorporation and our acquisition of Qianbao on September 6, 2006, we were focused on becoming involved in the business of facilitating money transfers from the United States to China. During such time period, our operations were focused on organizational, start-up, and fund raising activities and entering into an agreement with Chongqing Yahu Information Development Co., Ltd. (“Yahu”). We never commenced our proposed business operations or generated revenues in connection with such proposed operations.
On September 5, 2006, we acquired Qianbao pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement, dated as of such date, among Pay88, Qianbao, and Qianbao’s two shareholders, Ying Bao and Yahu. Pursuant to such Share Purchase Agreement, Pay88 agreed to acquire Qianbao by purchasing from Qianbao’s shareholders all of their respective shares of Qianbao’s registered capital stock, which represented 100% of the issued and outstanding registered capital stock of Qianbao. In consideration thereof, Pay88 agreed to issue to the Qianbao shareholders an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, to be allocated between the Qianbao shareholders as follows: 4,950,000 shares to Yahu and 50,000 shares to Ying Bao.
Our Business
Through our subsidiary, Qianbao, we are primarily engaged in the sale of multi player online game cards through Qianbao’s websites, www.iamseller.com, and www.17logo.com. While we also engage in the sale of prepaid telephone cards and over 800 software products, including cooking and language software, the sale of such products represents an insignificant percentage of our gross revenues during the quarter ended September 30, 2008. We have decided to focus all of our resources on the development of the multi player online game cards business, in addition to the development of our web distribution platform during the next 12 months. We presently have no intention to engage in the money transfer business. Nonetheless, we may in the future resume our plans to develop the money transfer business, as discussed below.
Qianbao’s Business
Qianbao was incorporated on April 24, 2006, under the name “Chongqing Qianbao Technology Ltd.” under the laws of the People’s Republic of China. Qianbao primarily engages in the sale of prepaid multi player on line game cards on its internet websites, http://www.iamseller.com and http://www.17logo.com, as further described below. On July 3, 2006, Qianbao purchased an office located at No. 78 1st Yanghe Village, Jiangbei District, Chongqing, China for a purchase price of approximately $393,000. Such office serves as Qianbao’s executive offices. Although we own the three units of office space, the underlying land is owned by the People’s Republic of the State of China. Our right to use the land expires in 2037 and may be extended at that time.
Qianbao sells prepaid multi player online video games on its websites, www.iamseller.com and www.17logo.com to consumers or retailers visiting such websites. At present, the main products offered for sale on our websites are online multi player prepaid game cards, which allow the holder thereof to play, for an allotted time, online video games. We also offer for sale on such websites prepaid telephone cards and over 800 software products, including cooking and language software.
While Qianbao is planning to manufacture its own multiplayer online games in the future, Qianbao does not currently manufacture any of the products offered for sale on its website. Qianbao purchases such products from third-party suppliers and resells them on its websites.

Through our subsidiary, Qianbao, we will continue to focus over the next twelve months on developing our internet distribution platform on Qianbao’s websites and increasing the volume of our sales of multi player online game cards on such websites. Qianbao will continue to focus on developing its websites, www.iamseller.com and www.17logo.com and to build other internet websites on which it will operate a distribution platform through which we will be able to offer products for sale to consumers or retailers visiting such websites. Qianbao will continue its efforts to arrange for suppliers to offer for sale on such website the following products: prepaid multiplayer online game cards, which allow the holder thereof to play, for the allotted time, online internet games.

No individual manufacturer alone is material to our current business. We are currently engaged in agreements with the above mentioned suppliers. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in marketing and selling these products.
On July 16, 2008, the Company signed a website platform development contract with Ziya Company, a Chinese information technology company located in Hang Zhou, China. The Company and Ziya will work jointly in the development of a state-of-the-art, online gaming transaction platform to be utilized internally by Qianbao in the marketing of online prepaid game card products throughout Chongqing and other major cities in China. On July 29, 2008, the Company paid Ziya Company 1,000,000 RMB, approximately $147,280 (translated as of September 30, 2008) to initiate the website platform project. The estimated development period is for six months. The Company is applying the provisions of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position (“SOP”) No. 98-1, “Accounting for Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use”, and the Emerging Issues Task Force Issue (“EITF”) No. 00-02, “Accounting for Website Development Costs”. The rules specify different stages of development and the related accounting guidance that accompanies each stage. Purchased third party software and related implementation costs and internal and external costs incurred related to the application development stage are capitalized and included in other assets under the caption of Website platform development. Such capitalized costs will be amortized using the straight-line method over three years of the estimated useful life after the new platform is in use. All costs incurred in the planning stage are expensed as incurred and those costs to be incurred in the operating stage will be expensed as incurred.
On October 7, 2008, the Company entered into a letter of intent agreement with Chongqing Aomei Advertising Co., Ltd., a limited liability company organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (“Aomei”), pursuant to which the Company intends to acquire from Aomei certain assets, including, intellectual property rights, advertising rights and client groups, in consideration for the issuance of a certain number of shares of the Company’s common stock to be mutually agreed upon after the Company has completed its due diligence investigation of Aomei and its assets.

online game cards, with very low gross margin. One of the reasons we believed that net sales increased by approximately 266% was as a result of the expanded games we offered and increased market share. The cost of sales increased by approximately 267% as a direct result from increased in sales volume and cost incurred from purchasing additional cards.
However, if we continue to realize gross margins similar to our historical amounts, we will continue to have cash flow problems.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our balance sheet as of September 30, 2008, reflects assets of $2,736,080 including deferred financing costs of $20,405.
On March 4, 2008, the Company has determined to raise up to $12,150,000 in capital pursuant to a private placement held under Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) by offering for sale up to 9,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock
7
at a purchase price of $1.35 per share. As of September 30, 2008, the Company issued 1,300,024 shares in the private placement under the Regulation S to 18 subscribers and received net proceeds of $1,346,992 after the payment of the offering cost of $408,040. There can be no assurance that the Company can successfully complete its goal of selling up to 9,000,000 shares in the private placement and it is uncertain that the required funds will be available to the Company on satisfactory terms and conditions, if at all.
As of September 30, 2008, the Company had $31,966 in cash and cash equivalents. The Company commenced the repayment of notes and interests on March 19, 2008. As of September 30, 2008, the Company paid $342,255 in total to the note holders, such payments representing the loan principal of $309,250, the loan interest of $ 13,005 and the fee of $20,000. The unpaid notes balance is $2,000,750 at September 30, 2008. The Company is in negotiations with the investors for the total redemption of notes and warrants.
Notwithstanding, we anticipate generating losses and therefore we may be unable to continue our operations in the future. If we require additional capital, we would have to issue debt or equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third party. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to us. We currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources.
Lack of Insurance
The Company currently has no insurance in force for its office facilities and operations and it cannot be certain that it can cover the risks associated with such lack of insurance or that it will be able to obtain and/or maintain insurance to cover these risks at economically feasible premiums.
Going Concern Consideration
The Company has incurred a net loss of $698,883 and $2,117,805, which included the amortization of deferred financing cost and amortization of debt discount and cash discount of $425,210 and $1,428,526 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively. In addition, the Company has incurred significant losses and had negative cash flow from operations since April 24, 2006 (date of inception) and has an accumulated deficit of $13,721,048 at September 30, 2008. Substantial portions of the losses are attributable to consulting and professional fees. Furthermore, the Company’s gross margin rate from its current operations was very low. It was approximately 2.2% and 2.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. These factors raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as going concern.
There can be no assurance that sufficient funds will be generated during the next twelve months or thereafter from the Company’s current operations, or that the funds will be available from external sources such as debt or equity financings or other potential sources. The lack of additional capital could force the Company to curtail or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material adverse effect on its business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company’s existing stockholders.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company received net proceeds totaling $1,346,992 from its regulation S offering after the payment of the offering cost of $408,040.
8
The Company has undertaken further steps as part of a plan to improve operations with the goal of sustaining our operations for the next twelve months and beyond to address our lack of liquidity by raising additional funds, either in the form of debt or equity or some combination thereof. The Company is planning to expand its current operations to increase its sales volume. The Company is also seeking for the opportunities to diversify its operations, which including other more profitable product lines and to improve its current gross margin. However, there can be no assurance that the Company can successfully accomplish these steps and or business plans, and it is uncertain that the Company will achieve a profitable level of operations and be able to obtain additional financing.
There can be no assurance that any additional financings will be available to the Company on satisfactory terms and conditions, if at all. In the event we are unable to continue as a going concern, we may elect or be required to seek protection from our creditors by filing a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or may be subject to an involuntary petition in bankruptcy. To date, management has not considered this alternative, nor does management view it as a likely occurrence.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
