BIG TREE GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2013

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

The Company

  Big Tree Group, Inc. (formerly Transax International Limited) (“we”, “us”, “our,” or the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Colorado in 1987. Prior to December 2011, the Company, through its subsidiary, Medlink Conectividade em Saude Ltda (“MedlinkConectividade”) was an international provider of information network solutions specifically designed for healthcare providers and health insurance companies. On April 4, 2011, pursuant to a Quota Purchase and Sale Agreement amongst Transax Limited, QC Holding I Participacoes S.A., a corporation organized under the laws of Brazil (“QC Holding”), and MedlinkConectividade, the Company sold 100% of its interest in MedlinkConectividade to QC Holding. From April 4, 2011 until December 30, 2011, we had nominal assets, no revenues and limited operations consisting of financial reporting, general administration, and seeking new business opportunities with a merger candidate.

On December 30, 2011, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement") with Big Tree International Co., Ltd., a Brunei company (“BT Brunei”) and its shareholder, Lins (HK) International Trading Limited (“BT Hong Kong”). Under the Share Exchange Agreement, we exchanged 6,500,000 shares of our Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series C Preferred Stock") to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of BT Brunei from its sole shareholder BT Hong Kong. Each share of the Series C Preferred Stock was convertible into one share of our common stock after giving effect to a pending 1 for 700 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) and represented approximately 65% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock, and is hereinafter referred to as the “Exchange”. On December 30, 2011, BT Hong Kong became a shareholder of the Company. The Share Exchange Agreement was approved by our Board of Directors on December 30, 2011 and no approval of our shareholders was necessary under Colorado law. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger and recapitalization of BT Brunei whereby BT Brunei is considered the acquirer for accounting purposes and the 6,500,000 shares of our Series C Preferred Stock were accounted for as paid in capital of our company.  As a result of the consummation of the Share Exchange, BT Brunei and its subsidiary, Shantou Big Tree Toys Co., Ltd., a Chinese company (“BT Shantou”), are now our wholly-owned subsidiaries.  Accordingly, the historical financial statements are those of BT Brunei and BT Shantou upon the consummation of the Share Exchange transaction on December 30, 2011. Management of BT Brunei and BT Shantou has assumed operational, management and governance control immediately following the reverse merger transaction.

After the acquisition of BT Brunei, we are in the business of toys sourcing, distribution and contractual manufacturing targeting international and domestic distributors and customers in the toys industry. Our main business focus is to function as a “one stop shop” for the sourcing, distribution and specialty manufacturing of toys and related products.  The Company conducts these operations through both BT Brunei and our BT Shantou subsidiary. We are located in Shantou City of Guangdong province, the geographical region well-known for toys manufacturing and exporting in China. We are not a manufacturer. We provide procurement services for international toy distributors and wholesalers, including identifying, evaluating, and engaging one or more local manufacturers, trading companies or distributors for the requested supply of toys, as well as original equipment manufacturing (“OEM”) services. The OEM services include engaging toy manufacturers directly or through other toy trading companies or distributors to either manufacture toys to specific specifications requested by our customers, or customize an existing toy product to meet our customer’s request such as through changes in mechanical functionality, appearance, physical dimension, and materials. We sources a wide variety of toys made of plastic, wood, metal, wool, and electronic materials, primarily targeting children from infants to teenagers. We enable our customers to view these toys either through our website or at our extensive toy showrooms located in Shantou, China. Customers can easily contact our online representatives for inquiry and place orders, or visit the toy showrooms and choose from the displayed toy samples provided by our manufacturing partners.

In 2009, BT Shantou developed a proprietary construction toy consisting of plastic pieces that can plug-in together to make a wide variety of objects. We registered the patents for its utility model and design in Hong Kong and mainland China during 2010 and 2011. On June 1, 2010, BT Shantou entered into a 10-year contract manufacturing agreement with Shantou Xinzhongyang Toy Industrial Co., Ltd.  (“Xinzhongyang”), a related party, to produce this proprietary toy under the name of Big Tree Educational Magic Puzzle (the “Big Tree Magic Puzzle”).

Basis of presentation

  The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three month periods ended March  31, 2013 and 2012 have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The consolidated unaudited financial statements for the interim periods presented are unaudited and reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and operating results for the periods presented. Financial results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that should be expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect the consolidated financial position and result of operations of the Company and our subsidiaries, BT Brunei and BT Shantou. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Foreign Currency Translation

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. Our functional currency is the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Section 830-20-35, the unaudited consolidated financial statements were translated into United States dollars using balance sheet date rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for the income statements.  Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions were included in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.  Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in other comprehensive income or loss within the shareholders’ equity.

RMB is not a fully convertible currency. All foreign exchange transactions involving RMB must take place either through the People’s Bank of China (the “PBOC”) or other institutions authorized to buy and sell foreign exchange. The exchange rate adopted for the foreign exchange transactions are the rates of exchange quoted by the PBOC, which are determined largely by supply and demand. Translation of amounts from RMB into United States dollars (“$”) was made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods:
 
Balance sheet:
 
As of March 31, 2013
RMB 6.2666 to $1.00
As of December 31, 2012
RMB 6.3011 to $1.00
   
Statement of operations and comprehensive income and cash flows:
 
Three months ended March 31, 2013
RMB 6.2769 to $1.00
Three months ended March 31, 2012
RMB 6.2976 to $1.00

Cash flows from the Company's operations are calculated based upon the local currencies using the average translation rate. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

Use of estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Significant estimates for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 include the allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivable, allowance for obsolete inventory, the useful life of property and equipment and intangible assets, and the valuation of stock-based compensation.

Fair value of financial instruments

We adopted the guidance of ASC 820 for fair value measurements which clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

Level 2-Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and loans payable approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. We did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with the accounting guidance.

BIG TREE GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2013
 
 
ASC 825-10 “Financial Instruments”, allows entities to voluntarily choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value (fair value option). The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable, unless a new election date occurs. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. We did not elect to apply the fair value option to any outstanding instruments.

Cash and equivalents

             For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, we consider all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. We maintain cash and cash equivalents with various financial institutions mainly in the PRC and Hong Kong. Balances in banks in the PRC and Hong Kong are uninsured.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects our best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in our existing accounts receivable. We determined the allowance based on historical write-off experience, customer specific facts and economic conditions. Bad debt expense is included in general and administrative expense, if any.

Outstanding account balances are reviewed individually for collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Inventories

We value inventories, consisting of finished goods only, at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined on the first in-first out method. We regularly review our inventories on hand and, when necessary, record a provision for excess or obsolete inventories based primarily on the current selling price. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were no charges for inventory reserve provision. 

Prepaid expenses

Prepaid expenses primarily consist of prepaid advertising expenses and prepaid taxes.

Advance to suppliers (related and non-related parties)

Advance to suppliers consist of advance to suppliers for merchandise that had not yet been shipped.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost.  Expenditures for major additions and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.  Depreciation of property and equipment is computed by the straight-line method (after taking into account their respective estimated residual values) over the assets estimated useful lives.  Upon sale or retirement of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in operations. Leasehold improvements, if any, are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease period or the estimated useful life, whichever is shorter.  Upon becoming fully amortized, the related cost and accumulated amortization are removed from the accounts.

Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with ASC 360, our long-lived assets, which include property and equipment, and automobiles are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. We assess the recoverability of our long-lived assets by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related long-lived asset or group of long-lived assets over their remaining estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amounts.  Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets.  Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable. If long-lived assets are determined to be recoverable, but the newly determined remaining estimated useful lives are shorter than originally estimated, the net book values of the long-lived assets are depreciated over the newly determined remaining estimated useful lives. We determined there were no impairments of long-lived assets as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

Advance from customers
 
        Advance from customers represent prepayments to us for merchandise that had not yet been shipped to customers.
 
Revenue recognition

We follow the guidance of ASC 605, "Revenue Recognition,” and the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104 and SAB Topic 13 for revenue recognition. Revenues for our product sales are recognized when all four of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists through a formal purchase order or contract; (ii) delivery of the products has occurred and risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the customer; (iii) the selling price is both fixed and determinable based on agreement between us and our customer; and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. For any advance payments from customers, revenues are deferred until such a time when all the four criteria mentioned above are fully met.
 
Revenue is accounted for in accordance with the ASC 605-45, reporting revenue either gross as a principal or net as an agent depending upon the nature of the sales transaction. Revenue is recognized on a gross basis when the Company determines the sale meets the conditions of ASC 605-45, “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent.” When the Company does not meet the criteria for gross revenue recognition under ASC 605-45, the Company reports the revenue on a net basis.
 
In accordance with ASC 605-45-45, “Principal Considerations - Other Presentation Matters”, we report our revenues from sales of toys as follows:

(1)           Certain revenues from our sales are based on a net reporting because they do not meet the criteria for gross reporting method pursuant to ASC 605-45-45.  This means that all cost of purchases from those sales will be netted with the sales revenues generated by the sale of those toys. All other revenues from sales are based on gross reporting pursuant to criteria outlined in ASC 605-45-45, as follows:

 
we are the primary obligor to provide the product or services desired by our customers;
 
we have discretion in supplier selection.
 
we have latitude in establishing price;
 
we have credit risk – see Note 10 for customer concentrations and credit risk; and
 
we have inventory risk before customer order and upon customer return;

Income taxes
 
We account for income taxes under ASC 740, “Expenses – Income Taxes”. ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax losses and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires the establishment of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets.

All of BT Shantou operations are in the PRC and are governed by the Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China and local income tax laws (the PRC Income Tax Law”). Pursuant to the PRC Income Tax Law, we are subject to tax at a maximum statutory rate of 25% (inclusive of state and local income taxes).

Big Tree International Co., Ltd. (“BT Brunei”) was incorporated in the State of Brunei Darussalam, and is not subject to any corporate income taxes in accordance to the laws and regulations of that country.

We applied the provisions of ASC 740-10-50, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”, which provides clarification related to the process associated with accounting for uncertain tax positions recognized in our financial statements. Audit periods remain open for review until the statute of limitations has passed. The completion of review or the expiration of the statute of limitations for a given audit period could result in an adjustment to the Company’s liability for income taxes. Any such adjustment could be material to the Company’s results of operations for any given quarterly or annual period based, in part, upon the results of operations for the given period. As of March 31, 2013, we had no uncertain tax positions, and will continue to evaluate for uncertain positions in the future.

Value added taxes

Pursuant to the Provisional Regulation of China on Value Added Tax (“VAT”) and their rules, all entities and individuals that are engaged in the sale of goods in China are generally required to pay VAT at a rate of 17.0% of the gross sales proceeds received, less any deductible VAT already paid or borne by the taxpayer. Further, when exporting goods, the exporter is entitled to a portion of or a full refund of the VAT that it has already paid or borne.
 
Shipping costs

Shipping costs are included in selling expenses and totaled $13,172 and $16,971 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Advertising

Advertising is expensed as incurred and is included in selling expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income. For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, advertising expense amounted to $18,474 and $38,951, respectively.

Comprehensive income (loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income and foreign currency translation adjustments, and is presented in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Reverse stock split and conversion of preferred shares

We effected a one-for-700 reverse stock split on December 11, 2012. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split. Additionally, upon the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, all outstanding convertible series B and C shares were automatically converted into common shares.

Net income per share of common stock
 
Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, both basic and diluted weighted-average number of common shares included the 3,362,749 shares of Series B convertible preferred shares issued in connection with the pre-merger transactions and the 6,500,000 shares of Series C convertible preferred shares issued in connection with the Shares Exchange Transaction as if the common shares are issued at the issuance date in connection with the pre-merger transactions and are issued at the earliest period presented or retroactively restated as a result of recapitalization since these convertible preferred shares have automatic conversion feature.  These Series B and Series C are deemed converted. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, we did not have any common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive common shares.
 
Recently issued accounting pronouncements

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210). The objective of this Update is to provide enhanced disclosures that will enable users of its financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity’s financial position. This includes the effect or potential effect of rights of setoff associated with an entity’s recognized assets and recognized liabilities within the scope of this Update. The amendments require enhanced disclosures by requiring improved information about financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either (1) offset in accordance with either Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45 or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement, irrespective of whether they are offset in accordance with either Section 210-20-45 or Section 815-10-45. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The adoption of ASU 2011-11 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

          In July 2012, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. ASU No. 2012-02 simplifies the guidance for testing the decline in the realizable value (impairment) of indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill. ASU No. 2012-02 allows an entity the option of first performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2012-02 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. 

          In August 2012, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2012-03, “Technical Amendments and Corrections to SEC Sections: Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 114, Technical Amendments Pursuant to SEC Release No. 33-9250, and Corrections Related to FASB Accounting Standards Update 2010-22 (SEC Update)” in Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-03. This update amends various SEC paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of SAB No. 114. The adoption of ASU 2012-03 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 In October 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-04, “Technical Corrections and Improvements” in Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-04 ("ASU 2012-04"). The amendments in this update cover a wide range of topics in the Accounting Standards Codification. These amendments include technical corrections and improvements to the Accounting Standards Codification and conforming amendments related to fair value measurements. The amendments in this update will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-04 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard setting organizations and various regulatory agencies. Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, we have not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to our consolidated financial statements.

Due from related party

From time to time, BT Shantou receives advances from and makes advances to Xinzhongyang, for working capital purposes. At times the total payment the Company repaid to Xinzhingyang exceeds the total balance due to Xinzhongyang.  Xinzhongyang is under the common control of Mr. Lin and his wife. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, amounts due from related party amounted to $2,877,510 and $261,970, respectively. The Company accounted for and presented the advances due from related party as a reduction of stockholders’ equity in accordance with the guidance of ASC 505-10-45. It is possible that these working capital advances by us to Xinzhongyang could be deemed to be in violation of Section 402 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, however, we have not made a determination as of the date hereof if the advances resulted in a violation of that provision. We expect that the working capital advance made by us to Xinzhongyang will be repaid. If, however, the amount is not repaid and/or it was determined that these advances violated the prohibitions of Section 402 from making loans to executive officers or directors, the Company could be subject to investigation and/or litigation that could involve significant time and costs and may not be resolved favorably. The Company is unable to predict the extent of its ultimate liability with respect to these transactions. The costs and other effects of any future litigation, government investigations, legal and administrative cases and proceedings, settlements, judgments and investigations, claims and changes in this matter could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and operating results.

(iii)    Credit Risk

The Company's operations are carried out 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's economy. The Company's operations in the PRC are subject to specific considerations and significant risks not typically associated with companies in North America. The Company's results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, currency conversion and remittance abroad, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. Substantially all of the Company’s cash is maintained with state-owned banks within the PRC, the currency of which is not free trading, and no deposits are covered by insurance.

(iv)    Foreign currency risk

We cannot guarantee that the current exchange rate will not fluctuate. There is always the possibility that we could post the same amount of profit for two comparable periods, and because of a fluctuating exchange rate actually post higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of RMB converted to U.S. dollars on that date. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in the political and economic environments without notice.

NOTE 13 – RESTATEMENT
 
The Company's consolidated financial statements have been restated for the as of March 31, 2012 and for the three months then ended. On April 3, 2013, we determined that we incorrectly understated an obligation due to related parties and overstated additional paid -in capital. On July 5, 2011 BT Brunei acquired 100% of the equity interest in BT Shantou from Mr. Lin and Ms. Zheng at the price of RMB 5,000,000, representing the original capital contributed by Mr. Lin and Ms. Zheng in BT Shantou. Previously, we erroneously reduced amounts due to related parties of RMB 5,000,000 during our financial statement consolidation process in order to eliminate BT Brunei's investment in BT Shantou instead of reducing additional paid-in capital. Accordingly, we restated our consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2012 to properly reflect a liability due to Mr. Lin and Ms. Zheng of approximately $792,117 and we reduced additional paid-in capital by $697,045, and we reduced accumulated other comprehensive income of $95,072 in correcting the error. The correction of this accounting error resulted in an increase in total liabilities of $792,117 and a reduction in shareholders' equity of $792,117.

Additionally, for the three months ended March 31, 2012, we reduced comprehensive income by $95,072 on the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income. The restatement did not affect net income or net income per common share. On the consolidated statement of cash flows, we increased net cash used in operations by $163,176, increased net cash provided by financing activities by $279,187, and reduced the effect of exchange rate on cash by $116,011.
 
Accordingly, the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2012 and the consolidated statement of operation and comprehensive income, and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2012 have been restated herein. The effect of correcting this error in the Company’s consolidated financial statements at March 31, 2012 and for the three months then ended are shown in the table as follows:

 ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operation should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

Overview

Our main business focus is to function as a “one stop shop” for the sourcing, distribution and specialty manufacturing of toys and related products. We conduct these operations through both BT Brunei, which focuses on export sales, and BT Shantou, which concentrates on domestic sales. We are located in Shantou City of Guangdong province, the geographical region well-known for toys manufacturing and exporting in China. We provide procurement services for international toy distributors and wholesalers, including identifying, evaluating, and engaging one or more local manufacturers, trading companies or distributors for the requested supply of toys, as well as original equipment manufacturing (“OEM”) services. The OEM services include engaging toy manufacturers directly or through other toy trading companies or distributors to either manufacture toys to specific specifications requested by our customers, or customize an existing toy product to meet our customer’s request such as through changes in mechanical functionality, appearance, physical dimension, and materials. We do not manufacture any products. We source a wide variety of 300,000 toys made of plastic, wood, metal, wool, and electronic materials, primarily targeting children from infants to teenagers.

We source toys to distributors, trading companies, and wholesalers primarily located in mainland China, Hong Kong, Europe, South America, and Asia. The end customers are typically children, ranging from infants to teenagers, in these countries and regions. In 2013, we opened our toy experience center and a second showroom which will be used to provide our customers and potential customers the opportunity to see all the toys we offer with a one-stop shop experience.
 
We are dependent upon certain customers and suppliers.  During the first quarter of 2013, two customers represented 32.2% of total revenues. In the first quarter of 2013, two of our suppliers accounted for 83.1% of our toy purchases. During the first quarter of 2012, three major customers represented approximately 43.8% of our total revenues. In the first quarter of 2012 two of our suppliers accounted for 77.0% of our toy purchases.

In 2011, we started selling Big Tree Magic Puzzle directly to Chinese domestic end consumers including children and grown-ups through our own sales counters in Dennis Department Stores and online store at Taobao Mall (www. Tmall.com), the biggest B2C online retailing platform in China.  In 2012, we closed our counters at Dennis Department Stores, The sales from this product represented less than 1% of our total revenue during 2012 and 2011. During 2013, we plan on utilizing our existing distribution channels in an effort to increase the sales of this proprietary product.  In addition, and subject to the availability of additional capital, of which there are no assurances, should sales of this product increase in 2013 we plan on opening retail locations from which this propriety product can be offered.  While we are in the early stages of planning these locations and have not finalized any of these expansion plans, including the target number of locations, we estimate that the cost per new location will be approximately RMB50,000 to RMB100,000 (approximately US $8,000 to US $16,000).
 
In addition to a continued focus on increasing our revenues from our procurement and OEM sourcing services, and sales of our Big Tree Magic Puzzle (3D), our growth strategies include possibly opening satellite sales offices and branches in the U.S. and other cities in China as well as the potential acquisition of distributors. We are in the early stages of development of these plans as well and have not finalized any cost or timing estimates and are not a party to any agreements. Our ability to undertake any of these expansion plans is also dependent upon our ability to raise additional capital, of which there are no assurances.

Lastly, we continue to evaluate the financial and operating benefits of acquisitions of Yunjia and/or Xinzhongyang, related parties, as discussed earlier in this report.  If we should determine to proceed with the acquisition of Yunjia or Xinzhongyang, or both, of which there is no assurance, it is likely that we would acquire these companies for equity in our company which will be dilutive to our existing shareholders.  We are not a party to any agreements at this time for an acquisition of either Yunjia or Xinzhongyang and we may determine that neither acquisition would provide a financial or operating benefit to our company.
 
Results of Operations
 
Our consolidated revenues for the first quarter of 2013 amounted to $7.4 million, an increase of $2.7 million over the same period in 2012. For the first quarter of 2013, BT Shantou’s revenues increase by approximately $1.3 million. This increase was primarily due to an increase in sales to one customer, Always Trading International Limited which we accounted for on a gross basis as a principal. We did not have this customer in the 2012 period. Additionally, pursuant to our revenue recognition policy, in the 2013 period, we recorded less sales on a net basis as an agent as compared to the first quarter in 2012.  Our revenue accounted for on a net basis as an agent decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2012 mainly due to the nature of the sales transactions completed in the two comparative periods. The increase in Brunei’s revenue for the first quarter of 2013 as compared to the first quarter of 2012 was primarily due to the recent opening of our new toy show room.

Our strategy is to utilize BT Brunei to continue to increase our customer base for export sales of toys, while continuing to expand our domestic distribution sales channels within China through BT Shantou. BT Brunei is organized in the State of Brunei Darussalam which is a non-taxable jurisdiction. Sales revenues from BT Brunei are not subject to income taxes as compared to sales revenues from BT Shantou which are subject to a PRC tax rate of 25%. These operational costs savings have permitted the Company to leverage our export sales contacts to significantly expand the Company’s export sales in 2012 and in the first quarter of 2013 by permitting us to be more price competitive. As of our revenues in the first quarter of 2013 were generated from exports of toys, we are susceptible to the fluctuations and uncertainty of international trading conditions, currency exchange rates, and global financial crisis. In addition, due to the inflation and continuous appreciation of RMB in the past few years which has resulted in an increase in the wholesale price of toys, we will continue to face challenges in finding ways to effectively compete in the pricing of toy products in our domestic and export markets while maintaining our margins. We expect our revenues to increase in the rest of 2013 over 2012 as we continue to expand our export sales efforts.

In accordance with ASC 605-45-45, “Principal Considerations - Other Presentation Matters”, we report our revenues from sales of toys as follows:

If we change the relationship with our customers or vendors and do not meet any of the criteria, pursuant to our revenue recognition policy, we record revenues on a net basis (sales less cost of sales).
 
Cost of revenues was $6.8 million for the first quarter of 2013, an increase of $2.5 million over the same period of 2012, while cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues increased to 90.7% in the first quarter of 2013 from 89.0% in the same period of 2012. Cost of revenues attributable to BT Brunei accounted for approximately $5.5 million in the first quarter of 2013. As a result of increased sales during the first quarter of 2013, cost of revenue increased accordingly.
 
Our gross profit was $0.7 million for the first quarter of 2013, an increase of $0.2 million over the same period of 2012. Our consolidated gross margin was 9.3% for the first quarter of 2013 as compared to 11.0% for the same period in 2012. We continue our 2012 strategy to lower the gross margins on our international sales to gain a higher market share. As previously discussed above, revenue is accounted for in accordance with the ASC 605-45, reporting revenue either on a gross basis as a principal or net basis as an agent depending upon the nature of the sales transaction. Accordingly, our gross margin will fluctuate if we change the relationship with our customers or vendors and do not meet any of the criteria, pursuant to our revenue recognition policy. Currently, we are not able to quantify this future fluctuation in gross margins.

Operating expenses, composed of selling and general and administrative expenses, amounted to $0.5 million for the first quarter of 2013, an increase of $0.2 million over the same period in 2012. Selling expense decreased by $23,574 in the first quarter of 2013 as compared to the same period in 2012 primarily due to a decrease in marketing expense of $20,000. General and administrative expenses increased by $0.3 million in the first quarter of 2013 as compared to the same period in 2012. This increase was primarily due to $0.1 million increase in bad debt expense, a $60,000 increase associated with the lease of our new showroom, and the recording of stock-based consulting fees of $94,500 for business development services. We expect operating expenses to continue to increase in 2013, including increased costs associated with our public company reporting obligations, but we are unable at this time to quantify the amount of the expected increase.

For the first quarter of 2013, other expenses amounted to $83,000 as compared to other income of $14,300 for the first quarter of 2012. During the first quarter of 2013, we incurred interest expense of approximately $63,000 related to our bank loan. We did not incur such interest expense during the first quarter of 2012.
As a results of the discussion above, our net income for the first quarter of 2013 and 2012 amounted to $65,381, or $0.01 per common share (basic and diluted) and $228,388, or $0.02 per common share (basic and diluted), respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate sufficient cash to meet its operational cash requirements. We had working capital deficit of $26,193 as of March 31, 2013, as compared to working capital of $2.4 million as of December 31, 2012. Our primary uses of cash have been for purchases of toy products, selling, and general and administrative expenses. Our primary sources of cash are derived from revenues from the sales of our toy products, from bank loans and from advances from related parties.

At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company’s cash balances by geographic area were as follows:

 Cash held in banks in the PRC and Hong Kong are not insured. The value of cash on deposit in China has been converted to U.S. dollars based on the exchange rates as of respective balance sheet dates. In 1996, the Chinese government introduced regulations, which relaxed restrictions on the conversion of the RMB; however restrictions still remain, including but not limited to restrictions on foreign invested entities. Foreign invested entities may only buy, sell or remit foreign currencies after providing valid commercial documents at only those banks authorized to conduct foreign exchanges. Furthermore, the conversion of RMB for capital account items, including direct investments and loans, is subject to PRC government approval. Chinese entities are required to establish and maintain separate foreign exchange accounts for capital account items. We cannot be certain Chinese regulatory authorities will not impose more stringent restrictions on the convertibility and outflow of RMB, especially with respect to foreign exchange transactions. Accordingly, cash on deposit in banks in the PRC is not readily deployable by us for purposes outside of China.
 
Total current assets at March 31, 2013 decreased by $0.5 million from December 31, 2012. The principal contributor to this change was a $0.6 million decrease in advance to suppliers-non related party and a decrease in inventories of $0.3 million offset by an increase in accounts receivable, net of $0.4 million. Total current liabilities at March 31, 2013 increased by $1.9 million as compared to December 31, 2012 primarily due to a $1.1 million increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses, which was a result of increased purchases to fulfill higher sales volume in the first quarter of 2013, together with $0.9 million increase in due to related parties. The increase in due to related parties is reflects funds advanced to us by our Chairman and CEO, as well as other related parties, for working capital.

We do not have any commitments for capital expenditures and expect that our cash on hand and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to sustain our operations for at least the next twelve months.  However, the following trends are reasonably likely to require us to raise additional capital.

 
 
An increase in working capital requirements to finance near term and long term growth strategy including possible acquisitions;
 
 
Increases in capital expenditures, marketing and administrative expenses to support the sales growth of our company;
 
 
The costs for recruitment and retention of additional management and personnel to support our operations and expansion plans; and
 
 
The additional costs, including legal accounting and consulting fees, associated with a public company and related compliance activities.
  
In 2012, we entered into two-year promissory note agreements for $20,000 and $60,000 with China Direct Investments, Inc., respectively, for an aggregate loan amount of $80,000. The proceeds of the loans were used for working capital purposes. The loan amounts of $20,000 and $60,000 and all accrued and unpaid interest are due no later than the earlier of on March 20, 2014 and May 9, 2014, respectively, or upon the completion of an offering of our securities to raise capital. The loans bear interest at 2% per annum.

On November 2, 2012, we borrowed RMB 23,000,000 ($3,670,252 at March 31, 2013) from Guangfa Bank Co., Ltd. Shantou Zhongshan Branch.  We used the proceeds of this loan for working capital purposes, including the purchase of toy products. Under the terms of loan agreement, interest is payable monthly at an annual rate of 6.9% and is due on November 2, 2013. If the loan is not paid by the due date, the default interest rate shall be 8.97% per annum. The loan is secured by a property owned by Shantou Youbang, a company owned by Ms. Guihong Zheng, Mr. Wei Lin’s wife, and personally guaranteed by Xinna Cai, a third party.

Other than the loans discussed above and working capital advanced from related parties, we do not have any external sources of working capital.  We may seek to raise capital through the sale of equity in our company, however, we are not a party to any agreement or understandings at this time and there are no assurances we will be able to raise capital on terms satisfactory to us, or at all.  If we are unable to raise additional capital as may be needed, our ability to grow our company and increase our revenues in future periods will be adversely impacted.  

Cash Flows Analysis
 
NET CASH FLOW PROVIDED BY (USED IN) OPERATING ACTIVITIES:

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.7 million for the first quarter of 2013, as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $0.6 million for the same period of 2012. For the first quarter of 2013, cash flows provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to our net income of $65,381 adjusted for the add back of non-cash items such as depreciation of $19,760, stock-based compensation of $94,501 and bad debt expense of $77,151 and a decrease in advances to suppliers of $0.6 million, a decrease in inventories of $0.3 million and an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1.0 million offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $0.5 million. For the first quarter of 2012, net cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to an increase in accounts receivable of $1.0 million and an increase in inventories of $0.5 million offset by an increase in accounts payable of accrued expenses of $0.5 million.
 
NET CASH FLOW USED IN INVESTING ACTIVITIES:

Net cash used in investing activities amounted to $2,660 for the first quarter of 2013 as a result of the purchase of property and equipment compared with $521 for the first quarter of 2012.
 
NET CASH FLOW (USED IN) PROVIDED BY FINANCING ACTIVITIES:

Net cash used in financing activities was $1.7 million for the first quarter of 2013, due to an increase in amounts advanced to related party advances of $2.6 million offset by net proceeds we received from a related party advances of $0.9 million. For the first quarter of 2012, we received proceeds from advances from a related party of $0.6 million and of $20,000 from loans payable.

We have certain fixed contractual obligations and commitments that include future estimated payments. Changes in our business needs, cancellation provisions, changing interest rates, and other factors may result in actual payments differing from the estimates. We cannot provide certainty regarding the timing and amounts of payments. We have presented below a summary of the most significant assumptions used in our determination of amounts presented in the tables, in order to assist in the review of this information within the context of our consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The following tables summarize our contractual obligations as of March 31, 2013 (dollars in thousands), and the effect these obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flows in future periods.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

Under SEC regulations, we are required to disclose our off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, such as changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. An off-balance sheet arrangement means a transaction, agreement or contractual arrangement to which any entity that is not consolidated with us as a party, under which we have:

 
 
Any obligation under certain guarantee contracts,
 
 
Any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to that entity for such assets,
 
 
Any obligation under a contract that would be accounted for as a derivative instrument, except that it is both indexed to our stock and classified in stockholder’s equity in our statement of financial position, and
 
 
Any obligation arising out of a material variable interest held by us in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to us, or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that we are required to disclose pursuant to these regulations. In the ordinary course of business, we enter into operating lease commitments, purchase commitments and other contractual obligations. These transactions are recognized in our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.  The SEC has defined a company’s critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of the company’s financial condition and results of operations, and which require the company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain.  Based on this definition, we have identified the critical accounting policies and judgments addressed below.  We also have other significant accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are significant to understanding our results, which are described in Note 2 to our financial statements.  Although we believe that our estimates, assumptions and judgments are reasonable, they are based upon information presently available.  Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions, judgments or conditions.
 
Revenue recognition

We follow the guidance of ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition,” and the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104 and SAB Topic 13 for revenue recognition.  In general, we record revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

Revenues for our product sales are recognized when all four of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists through a formal purchase order; (ii) delivery of the products has occurred and risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the customer; (iii) the selling price is both fixed and determinable based upon an agreement between our company and our customer; and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.  For any advance payments from customers, revenues are deferred until such a time when all the four criteria mentioned above are fully met.
 
Revenue is accounted for in accordance with the ASC 605-45, reporting revenue either gross as a principal or net as an agent depending upon the nature of the sales transaction. Revenue is recognized on a gross basis when the Company determines the sale meets the conditions of ASC 605-45, “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent.” When the Company does not meet the criteria for gross revenue recognition under ASC 605-45, the Company reports the revenue on a net basis -See Note 2 for details on computation of net and gross reporting methods.

Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Significant estimates for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 include the allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivable, allowance for obsolete inventory, the useful life of property and equipment and intangible assets, and the valuation of stock-based compensation.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO), and our Chief Financial Officer (CFO), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2013.

Based on this evaluation we concluded that as of March 31, 2013 our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective such that the information relating to our company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure as a result of continuing material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting previously identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our first quarter ended March 31, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
