Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2008
 
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONSOLIDATION

Basis of presentation
The accompanying financial statements, as of March 31, 2008 and for the 3 months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007, have been prepared by the Company without audit. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“USGAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. However, the Company believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis and the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2007 included in the Company’s 2007 Form 10-K dated March 31, 2008.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with USGAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the disclosure of contingent asses and liabilities. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, necessary for their fair presentation in conformity with USGAAP. The results for the 3 months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for the full year.

Basis of consolidation
The financial statements include the accounts of Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc. (“ORS”) and its subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
 
2. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is computed based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period.

The Company had no potential common stock instruments with a dilutive effect for any period presented, therefore basic and diluted earnings per share are the same.
 
3. INCOME TAXES

ORS and its subsidiaries are subject to income taxes on an entity basis on income arising in or derived from the tax jurisdictions in which it operates. Provision for income and other related taxes have been provided in accordance with the tax rates and laws in effect in the various countries of operations.

Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2008
 
No provision for withholding or United States federal or state income taxes or tax benefits on the undistributed earnings and/or losses of the Company's subsidiaries has been provided as the earnings of these subsidiaries, in the opinion of the management, will be reinvested indefinitely.

United First International Limited (“UFI”) was incorporated in Hong Kong and has no assessable profit for the periods presented. Orsus Xelent Trading (HK) Limited (“OXTHK”) was incorporated in Hong Kong and Hong Kong Profits Tax has been provided at the rate of 17.5% in respect of its under-provision for prior years’ estimated assessable income; but no Hong Kong Profits Tax has been provided for the current 3-month period as OXTHK incurred a loss for the period for taxation purposes.

The Company’s income is principally generated in the PRC by Beijing Orsus Xelent Technologies & Trading Co., Limited (“BOXT”). Since BOXT is registered as a wholly-owned foreign investment enterprise (“WOFIE”), it is subject to tax laws applicable to WOFIE in the PRC and is fully exempt from the PRC enterprise income tax of 24% for two years commencing in fiscal year 2005, followed by a 50% reduction for the next three years.

On March 16, 2007, a New Enterprise Income Tax Law (“NEITL”) was issued in the PRC. Prior to the issuance of the NEITL, domestic enterprises (“DE”) and foreign invested enterprises (“FIE”) in the PRC were taxed under different enterprise income tax laws. The NEITL unifies the enterprise tax law applicable to both DE and FIE commencing in fiscal year beginning from January 1, 2008. The different enterprise income tax (“EIT”) rates with effective from January 1, 2008 are as follows:

Unified EIT rate effective January 1, 2008
25%
Small scale / low profit enterprises
20%
Hi-tech enterprise
15%

By virtue of the NEITL, it is expected that BOXT will be subject to the unified EIT rate of 25% under the NEITL. However, the 50% tax reduction, which has already been obtained by BOXT under the old tax laws, can still be maintained and the remaining tax holiday, which was commenced before 2008, can still be enjoyed by BOXT, until the year to expiry at 2009.

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax positions, as defined, and prescribes the measurement process and a minimum recognition threshold for a tax position, taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, that is required to be met before being recognized in the financial statements. Under FIN 48, the Company must recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain position only if it is more-likely-than-not the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authority, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements attributable to such position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon the ultimate resolution of the position.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended March 31, 2007 and 2008
 
Since January 1, 2007, the Company is subject to the provisions of FIN 48, and has analyzed its filing positions in all of the federal, state and foreign jurisdictions where it is required to file income tax returns, as well as for all open years for those jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2007, and March 31, 2008, the Company has identified the following jurisdictions as “major” tax jurisdictions, as defined, in which it is required to file income tax returns: United States, Hong Kong and PRC. Based on the evaluations noted above, the Company has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its consolidated financial statements. Based on a review of tax positions for all open years, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to FIN 48 during the three months ended March 31, 2008 and during the year ended December 31, 2007, and the Company does not anticipate that it is reasonably possible that any material increase or decrease in its unrecognized tax benefits will occur within twelve months.

As of December 31, 2007 and March 31, 2008, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits or accruals for the potential payment or interest and penalties. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties in this connection as a component of the provision for income tax expense. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, no interest or penalties were recorded.

9. SEGMENT INFORMATION

During the period ended March 31, 2008 and year ended December 31, 2007, all revenue of the Company are from its business of designing for retail and wholesale distribution cellular phones. Accordingly no financial information by business segment is presented.

The Company operates in the PRC and all its revenue and operating profit are from the PRC. Accordingly no geographical analysis is presented.

10. CONTINGENCIES

Tax penalty
In accordance with PRC’s tax regulations, BOXT’s sales are subject to a 17% of value added tax (“VAT”) upon the issuance of VAT invoices to customers. BOXT follows the practice of reporting its revenue for VAT purposes when invoices are issued. As of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, there were sales amounted to approximately US$137,710 and US$117,824 respectively for which VAT invoices have not yet been issued.

Furthermore, BOXT reports its revenue for PRC enterprise income tax (“EIT”) purposes when VAT invoices are issued instead of when goods are delivered. All unbilled revenue will become taxable when invoice are issued.

The above practice is not in strict compliance with the relevant laws and regulations in respect of VAT and EIT. Despite the fact that BOXT has made full provision on VAT and EIT including any estimated surcharge in the financial statements, BOXT may be subject to a penalty for the deferred reporting of above tax obligations. The exact amount of penalty cannot be estimated with any reasonable degree of certainty. The board of directors considers it is more likely than not that the penalty will not be imposed.

12. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value within generally accepted accounting principles, clarifies the definition of fair value within that framework and expands disclosures about the use of fair value measurements.  SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements in generally accepted accounting principles.  However, the definition of fair value in SFAS No. 157 may affect assumptions used by companies in determining fair value.  On January 1, 2008 the Company adopted SFAS 157 with respect to its financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value; the adoption of these provisions did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115,” or SFAS 159. SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Entities that elect the fair value option will report unrealized gains and losses in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis, with few exceptions. SFAS 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar assets and liabilities. Companies may elect the fair value option under SFAS 159 for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We elected not to adopt the fair value option of SFAS 159 at this time.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised), Business Combinations.  SFAS No. 141(R) improves the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial reports about a business combination and requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date.  This Statement applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008.  The adoption of this Statement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements.  SFAS No. 160 amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary and clarifies that a noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statements.  This Statement is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008.  The adoption of this Statement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133.  SFAS No. 161 amends SFAS No. 133 and requires entities to enhance their 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.  SFAS No. 161 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after November 15, 2008.  The adoption of SFAS No. 161 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto and other financial information contained elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

OVERVIEW

The Company was organized under the laws of State of Delaware in May 2004 under the name of “Universal Flirts Corp.” On June 1, 2004, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of Universal Flirts, Inc., a New York corporation, from Darrel Lerner, the sole shareholder, in consideration for the issuance of 8,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Mr. Lerner pursuant to a stock exchange agreement between Universal Flirts Inc. and the Company. Pursuant to the stock exchange transaction, Universal Flirts Inc. became the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

Pursuant to Stock Transfer Agreement dated March 29, 2005, the Company transferred all of the common stock of Universal Flirts, Inc. to Mr. Darrell Lerner in exchange for the cancellation of 28,200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Immediately following such cancellation, the Company had 14,756,000 shares of its common stock outstanding.

On March 31, 2005, Universal Flirts Corp. completed a stock exchange transaction with the stockholders of United First International Limited (“UFIL”), a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong. The exchange was consummated under the laws of the State of Delaware and pursuant to the terms of the Securities Exchange Agreement dated as of March 31, 2005 (the “Exchange Agreement”). In connection with its acquisition of UFIL, the Company authorized a 4-1 forward split of its common stock.

Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, Universal Flirts Corp. issued 15,000,000 shares of its common stock, $0.001 par value, to the stockholders of UFIL, representing approximately 50.41% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, in exchange for the 20,000,000 outstanding shares of UFIL and a cash payment of $50,000 from UFIL. Immediately after giving effect to the exchange, the Company had 29,756,000 shares of its common stock outstanding. Pursuant to this exchange, UFIL became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and most of the Company’s business operations are now conducted through UFIL’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Beijing Orsus Xelent Technology & Trading Company Limited (“Xelent”).

14

 
On May 9, 2005, the Company, formerly known as Universal Flirts Corp., changed its list name to Orsus Xelent Technologies, Inc.
 
In July 2005, a wholly owned subsidiary, Orsus Xelent Trading (HK) Company Limited (“OXHK”), was incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong. This subsidiary is engaged in the trading of cellular phones and accessories with overseas customers. In September 2005, OXHK commenced its Hong Kong operations to sell and distribute our cellular phone products and technical support services to customers outside the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”).

The business operations of the Company are conducted through Beijing Orsus Xelent Tech & Trading Co., Ltd.(the “Xelent”), which is also commonly called “Orsus Cellular” within the cellular phone industry.

Most of our mobile phone models are either designed by us for both our exclusive distribution and joint sales under established co-brands, or developed in conjunction with outside design firms. In February 2004, Xelent registered “ORSUS” with the PRC State Administration for Industry and Commerce as its product trademark.

In the market of GSM mobiles, Xelent provided its handsets to all types of customers and dealers and continues to maintain good relationships with them. At present, the GSM mobile devices constitute a significant percentage of the sales and profit of the Company. In addition, Xelent has emphasized the development of specialized application mobile terminals in accordance with market changes and popular features. The Company has established itself in the specialized application field and made great efforts in its marketing since entering the field in September 2006.

Business Review

In 2007, companies in the cell phone market in China were not optimistic. Many of the big local brand cellphone enterprises were digesting their inventories. Their revenues sharply decreased during the year due to the high cost of R&D, personnel and purchasing of raw materials and components. Despite these challenges in the industry, the Company continued to achieve high growth because of the adjustments we made to our business model as early as the end of 2006. We changed the OEM model by asking suppliers to provide materials instead of purchasing the material by ourselves, by shifting the after-sales maintenance service to the materials suppliers, by reducing our management personnel and unnecessary R&D units and by capturing some fully-developed projects in the market. In the end, being swift and simple, the Company has performed better than expected and become more competitive. The growth of our revenue and net income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 were 32% and 44%, respectively.

During the first quarter of 2008, although the Company did not make significant changes regarding its specific operations or undertake changes and initiatives in response to China's macroeconomic industrial policies, the Company still saw 3.55% increase in operational revenues and a 53.73% increase in net profit as compared to the same period last year. In addition, the Company made overall adjustments and innovations in its business model during this last year, and the Company’s new industrial model has helped it stand out among many other mobile phone makers in terms of brand awareness, reputation, interests and other important criteria. All of the above will allow the Company to continue to develop its good ideology and build on its firm foundation over the upcoming quarters and years.

Looking ahead into the fiscal year of 2008, we have three objectives to meet in our business operation:

1.
 
To complete the acquisition of a manufacturing facility during the second quarter in 2008

The acquisition will assist the Company (or its holding company) to fulfill its industrial development strategy and will help to prepare it to obtain a 3G manufacturing license and permit sales of 3G terminals from Chinese government. Moreover, the acquisition will enable us to turn our designs into manufactured products more quickly and will significantly lower the associated cost. The Company will successfully step into another remarkable development phase through the acquisition.

2.
To seek continuing growth of sales volume in 2008

The operations of 2007 are the firm foundations for us, from which we achieved advantages from our highly efficiency low cost operations and our capital platform.. For 2008, we have decided to adjust our structure of goods delivery according to the changing cellphone market and the impact of the restructuring of China’s telecommunication operators. Since the fourth quarter of 2007, customized orders from China Unicom Co., Ltd have been decreasing. The reported restructuring of five Chinese operators, China Telecom, China Unicom, China Netcomm, China Tietong and China Mobile, did not yet commence in the first quarter of 2008 as expected, which resulted in most suppliers holding off on their deliveries of cellphones until the restructuring occurs. This delay had a negative impact on our revenue growth of some related products.

For fiscal year of 2008, our aims are: for the sales volume of operator-tailored products to achieve the same level as that of last year; and for the sales volume of traditional terminals to gorw as a result of our increased investment in R&D, marketing, self control of production and through the further build-up of our business development professionals to strengthen our market penetration.

16

 
The Company anticipates a significant growth in revenues resulting in a total sales revenue of between $120 to $130 million for the twelve months ending on December 31, 2008, up by 34% from 89.9 million in 2007 and net income to be approximately $14.5 to $15.5 million, up more than 50% from $9.7 million in 2007. The Company expects that our general & administration expenses and marketing spending in 2008 will be higher than that of 2007. However, we will invest 6 or 7 times more in our R&D department in 2008 than in 2007 in order to expand our R&D department units and increase our presence and share of the overall market. These estimates are based on the expectation that we will complete an acquisition of a manufacturing facility during 2008, after which our entire product line should show significant progress, from further gains in productivity resulting from increased control of our manufacturing to increased R&D capability.
 
The Company also expects approximately 47% of 2008 sales will be contributed by traditional handsets, while operator-tailored cellphones may account for approximately 33% and specialized application mobile terminals roughly 20% of the total sales for 2008. All of these products will make our sales volume reach above-mentioned projections. Further, a majority of the traditional handsets we expect to sell in 2008, will be “mid-level” and "low end" cell phones. Our middle-level and low-end products are all multi-functional and economically-priced, which gives them an advantage when competing against foreign brands that tend to be higher prices and cost more to produce

3.
To develop and launch qualified 3G products

Our company is ready to launch the products that meet the 3G standards one the market for 3G is fully opened and licenses have been granted. While no specific time frames have been announced for the trials, or whether they may be extended to other cities, we are optimistic that next stages of testing will be taken before the Olympic Games in August after results of the initial trials can be evaluated.
  
On April 1, 2008, China Mobile, China’s top wireless operator, began commercial trial services of 3G mobile phones in eight major cities, including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Tianjin, Xiamen, Qinhuangdao, and Shenyang. Five of the eight cities are hosting events for the Beijing Olympics in August, 2008, and China Mobile has promised to provide 3G mobile phone services in time for the Games. The service features high-speed data transmissions that can allow users to watch videos, play 3D games, and conduct video conferences. The TD-SCDAM signal offers coverage within the eight cities. It is not available in other cities, but users can switch to 2G networks there.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES

Our discussion and analysis on our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

For the three months ended March 31, 2008, sales and marketing expenses were $103,000, or 0.50% of the revenues, which was only slightly higher as compared to $53,000, or 0.26% of the revenues for the corresponding period in 2007.

R&D expense

Our R&D expenses were $115,000 or 0.56% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2008, which represents a 116.98% increase, as compared with $53,000 and 0.26%, of total revenue in the same period of 2007.

For the three months ended March 31, 2008, the total general and administrative expenses were $436,000, or 2.10% of the total revenues, representing an increase of $277,000 or 174.21% as compared to $159,000, or 0.79% of the total revenues, for the corresponding period in 2007.

Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin

For the three months ended March 31, 2008, our gross profit was $3,218,000, reflecting a decrease of $450,000, as compared to $3,668,000 for the same period of last year. In addition, our gross profit margin for the reporting period was 15.53%, representing a decrease of 2.80% as compared to 18.33% for the same period of 2007.

The change of gross profit margin growth is attributable to:

 
1.
the intensified competition in the domestic market and a decline in the gross margin of products sold during the period. When competing with foreign brands in the market, domestic brands usually focus on sales of low-price products as a strategy to increase their market presence and secure originally-owned distribution to create conditions for future development, but this results in higher sales of low-margin products;

2. the pending structural adjustment of operators. In the first quarter of 2008, there were few high-margin customized orders generated from operators sector while the operators were focused on their restructuring.
Net income

For the three months ended March 31, 2008, our net income was $1,917,000 or a net profit margin of 9.25%, representing an increase of $670,000, or 53.73%, as compared to $1,247,000, or a net profit margin of 6.23% in the same period of 2007. The increase in our net profit is due to our new business strategy and cost controls.

LIQUIDITY AND SOURCE OF CAPITAL

We generally finance our operations from cash flow generated internally and short-term indirect financing from the domestic banks.

As of March 31, 2008, we had current assets of $82,037,000. Current assets are mainly comprised of accounts receivable of $73,860,000, trade deposits of $2,360,000, cash and cash equivalents of $186,000, pledged deposit of $1,256,000 and other current assets of $4,375,000.

We offer two different trading terms to our customers, i.e. cash-on-delivery and on credit term within 45-90 days. As of March 31, 2008, our accounts receivable had increased by $16,117,000 to $73,860,000, as compared to $57,743,000 as of December 31, 2007.

The increase was due to larger portion of trade deposits or earlier imbursement that go to the suppliers to seek lower prices of materials or products from them. In order to arrange for the timely delivery of goods and ensure our market share, we agreed to adjust the prepayment.

As of March 31, 2008, our other current assets were $4,375,000, which represented an increase of $179,000, as compared to $4,196,000 as of December 31, 2007. It is mainly composed of prepaid deposit for investment of $4,272,000 for acquiring the production facility.

As of March 31, 2008, accrued expenses and other accrued liabilities were $9,062,000, indicating a growth of $1,014,000 or 12.60%, as compared to $8,048,000 as of December 31, 2007. The increase was due to an outstanding tax of $7,747,000 caused by the time difference between USGAAP and PRCGAAP while determining the value-added tax (VAT).

As of March 31, 2008, other accrued expenses and liabilities were $128,000, which were used as provision for warranty.

Our activities in the operation are mainly denominated in RMB. In the accounting period, RMB currency is quoted officially against USD currency according to a floating exchange rate. However, the appreciation of the RMB against USD did not bring us with risks of currency exchanges because we had few USD in stock.
