ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

General

 

     

We currently engage in recycling energy business, providing energy saving and recycling products and services (“Current Business”).

 

Overview

 

Business History.   

 

We  originally  began  operations  as  a  Colorado corporation  known as  Boulder  Brewing  Company,  or Boulder  Brewing.  We were incorporated  in  Colorado  on May 8, 1980 and  operated  as a  microbrewery  of various  beers.  Boulder  Brewing  was  unable to become  profitable  within any segment of its core business,  became illiquid,  and was forced to divest itself of all of its assets.  Boulder  Brewing became dormant without any operations or assets in the second quarter of 1990.

 

    

 In September 2001,  Boulder Brewing changed its state of  incorporation from Colorado to Nevada and changed its name to Boulder  Acquisitions,  Inc., or Boulder  Acquisitions.  From the date of  reincorporation  until  June 23,  2004 Boulder Acquisitions had no material operations or assets.

 

     

On June 23, 2004, we completed a stock exchange  transaction  with the shareholders of Sifang Holdings Co., Ltd. ("Sifang Holdings").  The exchange was consummated  under  Nevada and Cayman  Islands  law  pursuant  to the terms of a Securities  Exchange  Agreement  dated as of June 23, 2004 by and among  Boulder Acquisitions,  Sifang Holdings and the shareholders of Sifang Holdings. Pursuant to the Securities Exchange Agreement,  we issued 13,782,636 shares of our common stock to the shareholders of Sifang Holdings,  representing  approximately 89.7% of our post-exchange  issued and outstanding  common stock, in exchange for 100% of the outstanding  capital stock of Sifang Holdings.  We presently carry on the business  of  Sifang  Holdings'  wholly-owned  subsidiary,   Shanghai  TCH  Energy Technology Co., Ltd., a corporation organized under the laws of the PRC, or Shanghai TCH.

 

     

Effective   August  6,  2004,   we  changed   our  name  from   Boulder Acquisitions, Inc. to China Digital Wireless, Inc.

From August 2004 to December 2006, we primarily engaged in the business of pager and mobile phone  distribution  and  provides value added information  services to the customers in the People’s Republic of China (“Previous Business”).

 

Since January 2007, we have gradually phased out and substantially scaled down most of the business of mobile phone distribution and provision of pager and mobile phone value-added information services.  In the first and second quarter of 2007, the Company did not engage in any substantial transaction and activity in connection to these businesses.  On May 10, 2007, the Company approved and announced that it completely ceased and discontinued these businesses.  

 

In December 2006, we began to engage in business activities in the energy saving and recycling industry, including purchasing certain equipments, devices, hardware and software for the construction and installation of top gas recovery turbine system (“TRT”) and other renewable energy products. TRT is an electricity generating system that utilizes the exhaust pressure and heat produced in the blast furnace of steel mill to generate electricity.  It has significant commercial value for the steel mills. We used the purchased properties as investment in several TRT projects that TCH expects to pursue with several large Chinese steel companies in year 2008.

 

On March 8, 2007, we changed our name from China Digital Wireless, Inc. to China Recycling Energy Corporation.

 

On April 08, 2007, our Board of Directors approved and made effective a TRT Project Joint-Operation Agreement (“Joint-Operation Agreement”) which was conditionally entered on February 01, 2007 between Shanghai TCH and Xi’an Yingfeng Science and Technology Co., Ltd.(“Yingfeng”).  Yingfeng is a Chinese company that is located in Xi’an, Shaanxi Province, China, and is engaging in the business of designing, selling, installing, and operating TRT systems and other renewable energy products.

 

Under the Joint-Operation Agreement, Shanghai TCH and Yingfeng jointly pursued a top gas recovery turbine project (“Project”) which is to design, construct, install and operate a TRT system in Xingtai Iron and Steel Company, Ltd. (“Xingtai”). This project was originally initiated by a Contract to Design and Construct TRT System (“Project Contract”) entered by Yingfeng and Xingtai on September 26, 2006. Due to Yingfeng’s lack of capital in pursuing this Project alone, Yingfeng sought Shanghai TCH’s cooperation. After intensive and substantial inquiry and assessment, Shanghai TCH agreed to pursue this project with Yingfeng in the joint-operation mode. Under the terms of the Joint-Operation Agreement, Shanghai TCH provided various forms of investments and properties into the Project including cash, hardware, software, equipments, major components and devices.  In return, Shanghai TCH becomes entitled to all the rights, titles, benefits and interests that Yingfeng originally had under the Project Contract, including but not limited to the cash payment made by Xingtai on regular basis and other property rights and interests.

 

On October 31, 2007, Shanghai TCH  entered an asset-transfer agreement with Yingfeng on to transfer from Yingfeng to Shanghai TCH all electricity-generating related assets owned by Yingfeng. As the result, the contractual relationships between Shanghai TCH and Yingfeng under the TRT Project Joint-Operation Agreement entered on April 08, 2007 were terminated.

 

     

Our  Current Business  is   primarily   conducted   through  our   wholly-owned subsidiary,  Sifang  Holdings  and its  wholly-owned  subsidiaries,  Shanghai TCH and Shanghai TCH’s wholly-subsidiaries, Xi'an TCH Energy Technology Company, Ltd ("Xi'an TCH") and Xingtai Huaxin Energy Tech Co., Ltd. (“Huaxin”).   Shanghai TCH was established as a foreign investment enterprise in Shanghai under the laws of the PRC on May 25, 2004, with registered capital of $7.2 million. Xi’an TCH was established as a foreign investment enterprise in Xi’an, Shannxi Province under the laws of the PRC on December 14, 2007. Huaxin was incorporated in Xingtai, PRC in November, 2007.

Analysis of the TRT market

a. Administrative Support of Chinese Government


Resource problem is a major strategic issue affecting the development of Chinese economy. The Chinese government has committed to adjusting the economic structure and changing the mode of economic growth in order to encourage the use of more advanced and more environment-friendly technologies. Also, the Chinese government has been promoting the development of a recycling economy and the circulated use of resources by encouraging enterprises to engage in the energy-recycling industry. Various government issued documents indicated the government’s plan to promote the use of energy saving and recycling equipments and systems. The Outline of Energy-Saving Technology Policy of China clearly defines that TRT ought to be widely developed. A Review on State of comprehensive Resource Saving issued by State Economic &Trade Commission points out that TRT skill shall be widely popularized in T1200-1500m3 or above Furnace. Also, A Medium and Long-term plan on Energy-Saving issued by National Development and Reform Commission ([2004] No 2505) points out that pressure of top furnace over 0.1MPa must be equipped with the TRT system. One of the 10th 5-Year Plans also encouraged  the development of large scaled TRT generators. Energy-Saving Technical Requirements on Iron and Steel Enterprises Design stipulates that pressure of top furnace over 130KPa should be equipped with Top Gas Pressure recovery turbine, taking wet dust removal equipment of dry dust or water economizing type. State Bureau of Environmental Protection (SBEP), the National Central Bank and the Banking Regulatory Commission jointly issued Views on implementation of environmental protection to prevent financial risk., in which there was a requirement that all companies and projects which did not satisfy relevant environmental protection standards should be strictly restricted in terms of loan issuance. SBEP (now known as Ministry of Environmental Protection of China) issued a guidance on strengthening of environmental protection policies and regulations implemented by listed companies (hereafter referred to guidance). This guidance indicates that all listed companies should obey two principles when disclosing information related to environmental protection.  The first principle stipulates that companies involving heavy-pollution industries are mandated to provide pollution inspection report issued SBEP when applying for IPO. In absence of such report, the application will not be approved.  The guidance was also reflected in a document regarding application of IPO of heavy-pollution companies, which was issued by the China Securities Regulatory Commission.

   

It is predicted that 200 TRT systems or plants will be installed nation wide in next three years, given the above factors. The total amount of investment will reach RMB ¥5 billion, (averagely RMB ¥2.5 million each), with an electricity-generation up to 11.2 billion KWH per year, hence yielding profit of RMB ¥5.6 billion. This will reduce the exhaustion of carbon dioxide by 12 million tons (an indirect profit of US$120 million due to the reduction). Put another way, this means that 4.6 million tons of standard coal may be saved (direct economic value of RMB ¥2 billion).

 

  

Now in China, small and medium-size enterprises have about 500 top furnaces according to a survey, among which 190 furnaces have already been equipped with the TRT system by year 2005, and about 300 TRT systems will be equipped in the next 5 years. Given investment on each TRT system, the total investment for the whole market will reach between RMB¥ 7.5 billion Yuan.

 

  

TRT project is one of our core businesses and we have an excellent team specialized in development, installation, production and operation of TRT system and equipment. Also, the company has rich marketing experience in this field and has become a leader in TRT market.

 

  

We have invested and built 3 TRT projects in 2007(one for Shanxi Changzhi Steel Group, and two for Hebei Xingtai Steel Group).

 

b. Analysis of CHPG Market

 

CHPG is a power generation by recovering cement residual heat without additional fuel.

 

1.

State of the market:

 

5

 


In China, there are over 630 cement clinker producing lines which may produce over 700 tons of cement per day. Up to the end of year 2006, 49 CHPG systems have been put into operation. 32 of those are added-combustion type; 17 are pure-low-temperature type. At the end of the year 2007, 50 low-temperature CHPG power stations were put into operation. Domestically, it is estimated that cement production lines with an output of 2000 tons daily or higher will be equipped with 280 CHPG systems. There are three main reasons for such strong demand  of CHPG systems.

 

First, during the period of 10th 5-year Plan, the output of NSP Production Line reached 40% of the total cement output; this performed a good foundation for CHPG.

 

Second, with the development of national economy, demand on electricity and coal has been increasing, and the price for such material also has been rising. This exerts a negative effect on cement enterprises. As the price of power and coal reached the 60% of the producing cost and substantially exceeded cost of raw material, companies in this field were keen to utilize CHPG in order to reduce producing cost.

 

Three, at the end of the 10th 5-year Plan, Chinese government called for an energy saving campaign and issued a Medium and Long-Term Plan on Special Energy-saving which indicated that CHPG should be widely used, and required that 30 CHPG systems ought be established annually on cement producing lines with an output of 2000 tons daily. This actually provided policy support for development of CHPG.

 

2. Market prospect

 

Due to rapid development of CHPG, it may create a good opportunity for the development of cement residual heat boiler.

 

In the year 2006, eight state ministries jointly issued Views on Adjustment of Structure of Cement Industry which pointed out that by the year 2010, the percentage of the NSP production lines equipped with CHPG should reach 40%. According to regulation on Chinese saving-energy industry, in the future, the NSP production will gradually replace shaft kiln cement. It is predicted that total output of the cement in 2010 will reach between 1.4 billion-1.5 billion tons. The additional output provides a board space for the development of the NSP cement production. At that time, the cement produced through NSP production lines will account for over 80% of total. Like iron and steel business, cement companies also need to continually upgrade its equipment and technology. So it is estimated that there will be a demand for 400 CHPG systems in next three years. (Given an output of 1 million tons annually, 400 cement production lines will be needed in next three years.)

 

C. Suppliers

 

1.

Shanghai TCH maintains good relationship with TRT and CHPG equipment supplier. Therefore, it may enjoy advantages in equipment purchasing and thus lower investment costs for its intended projects and ensure the timely completion of these projects.

 

2.

Now the company has established business relationship with its business partners including Hangzhou Boiler Plant, Beijing Zhongdian Electric Machinery and so on. Therefore, we now have strong support in equipment supply and installation, and in research and development of technologies.

 

D. Main Customers

 

Our customers are mainly large-size domestic enterprises involving industry of iron and steel, cement production and high energy-consuming. We already successfully completed a number of projects in this field and now maintained a stable cash flow.

 

E. Demand of the Recycled Energy

 

The following table is the funds invested in environmental protection industry by the Chinese government (in One Hundred Million RMB Yuan).

 

6

 


[creg10ksb2007002.jpg]


Now, recycling energy only accounts for less than 1% in total energy consumption. As a result, due to environmental protection pressure and improvement of infrastructure in western area, recycling energy, as a special and stable energy resource, can be widely used in next 20 years in China.

 

F. Intellectual Property Rights

 

The company has applied for a service mark "TCH" in China, which will be used in all of our business operations.

 

G. Research and Development

 

In 2007, the company invested about 100,000 US dollars in research and development.

 

H. Government and Environmental Management System

 

Up to now, the company has owned all licenses that Chinese governments require for all aspect of company’s operation.

 

I. Competition

 

Currently, the Company' has no strong domestic competitor in its industry. As a result, it is believed that with its specialized team and its rich financial resource, the Company is at a very advantageous position in this business.

 

J. Employees

 

As of March 31, 2008, there are 112 employees in the company. These include:

Management:

9   Employees

Administration:

8   Employees

Marketing:

25 Employees

Research & Development:  25 Employees    

Accounting & Finance:

10 Employees         

Project Officer:

35 Employees

 

All of our  personnel  are  employed  full-time  and  none of them  are represented under collective  bargaining  agreements.  We consider our relations with our employees to be good.

RISK FACTORS

 

Risks Related to our Common Stock

 

The market price for our common stock may be volatile.

 

The market price for our common  stock is likely to be highly  volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors including the following:

     In addition,  the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume  fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance  of  particular  companies.   These  market  fluctuations  may  also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

 

Shareholders could experience substantial dilution.

 

     We may issue additional shares of our capital stock to raise additional cash for working capital.  If we issue  additional  shares of our capital stock, our  shareholders  will  experience  dilution  in  their  respective  percentage ownership in the company.

 

We have no present intention to pay dividends.

 

     Neither during the preceding two fiscal years nor during the year ended December 31, 2007 did we pay dividends or make other cash  distributions  on our common  stock,  and we do not  expect to  declare  or pay any  dividends  in the foreseeable  future. We intend to retain any future earnings for working capital and to finance current operations and expansion of our business.

 

A  large  portion  of our  common  stock  is  controlled  by a small  number  of shareholders.

 

     A large  portion  of our  common  stock  is held by a small  number  of shareholders.  As a result, these shareholders are able to influence the outcome of shareholder votes on various matters, including the election of directors and extraordinary   corporate  transactions  including  business  combinations.   In addition,  the  occurrence  of sales of a large  number of shares of our  common stock,  or the  perception  that these sales could  occur,  may affect our stock price and could  impair our  ability to obtain  capital  through an  offering of equity  securities.  Furthermore,  the current ratios of ownership of our common stock  reduce the public  float and  liquidity  of our common stock which can in turn affect the market price of our common stock.

 

We may be subject to "penny stock" regulations.

 

8

 


 

     The Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, has adopted rules that regulate  broker-dealer  practices in  connection  with  transactions  in "penny stocks." Penny stocks generally are equity  securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or  quoted  on the  NASDAQ  system,  provided  that  current  price  and  volume information  with respect to  transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or  system).  Penny stock  rules  require a  broker-dealer,  prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized  risk  disclosure  document  prepared by the SEC,  which  specifies information  about penny stocks and the nature and  significance of risks of the penny stock market. A broker-dealer  must also provide the customer with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer, and our sales person in the transaction,  and monthly account statements  indicating the  market  value  of each  penny  stock  held in the  customer's  account.  In addition,  the penny stock rules require that, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not  otherwise  exempt from those  rules,  the  broker-dealer  must make a special written  determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's  written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure  requirements  may have the  effect of  reducing  the  trading activity in the secondary  market for stock that becomes  subject to those penny stock rules.  These additional sales practice and disclosure  requirements could impede the sale of our securities. Whenever any of our securities become subject to the penny stock rules,  holders of those  securities  may have  difficulty in selling those securities.

 

Risks Related to Our Business Operations

 

We are depending on the power supply for customers

 

We acquire raw materials from steelworks or cement plants and use these raw materials to generate power for them. Therefore, our power generating capacity depends on the availability of adequate supply of raw material from our customers. If we do not have enough supply of raw material, power generated for those customers will be impeded. Although we have contracts, there is still risk that the customers won’t be able to provide enough raw material to us. In that case, we may use the collateral that customers provided us to generate power.

Our industry contains certain level of danger and hazard. The insurance we carried might not be enough to cover all the liabilities and damages caused by the potential accidents.

 

A downturn in the Chinese economy may slow down our growth and profitability.

 

The growth of the Chinese  economy has been  uneven  across  geographic regions  and  economic  sectors.  There can be no  assurance  that growth of the Chinese  economy  will be steady or that any  downturn  will not have a negative effect on our business.  Our  profitability,  will decrease if  less energy is consumed due to a downturn in the Chinese economy.

Our heavy reliance on the experience and expertise of our management may cause adverse impacts on us if management member departs.

 

We depend on key personnel for the success of our business.  Our business may be severely  disrupted if we lose the services of our key  executives and employees or fail to add new senior and middle managers to our management.

 

Our future success is heavily  dependent upon the continued  service of our key executives. We also rely on a number of key technology  staff for the operation of our company. Our future  success is also  dependent  upon our  ability to attract  and retain qualified  senior and middle managers to our management  team. If one or more of our current or future key  executives  or  employees  are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions,  we may not be able to easily replace them, and our business  may be severely  disrupted.  In addition,  if any of these key executives  or employees  joins a competitor  or forms a competing  company,  we could lose customers and suppliers and incur additional  expenses to recruit and train personnel. We do not maintain  key-man life  insurance for any of our key executives.

 

9

 


 

We may need more capital for the operation and  failure to raise the capital we need may delay the development plan and reduce the profits.

 

If we don’t have adequate income or our capital can’t meet the requirement for expansion of operations, we will need to conduct financing activities to continue the business development. If we fail to acquire adequate financial resources at acceptable terms, we might have to postpone the proposed business development plan and lower the projection of future incomes.

 

Risks Related to the People's Republic of China

 

China's economic policy may affect our business

 

All of our assets are in China, and all of our revenue comes from the business in China. Therefore, our business and prospects are tied to China’s economic, political and legal development.

 

China's economy had achieved high-speed development in the past 20 years. The Chinese government has taken many measures to balance the economic development and the allocation of resources. Some measures may have  adverse effect on our industry. For example, government’s excessive investment control and changes in tax law will have adverse impacts on us.

 

China's economy had been changed from planed economy into market economy. In recent years, the government has taken many measures to strengthen market forces to reduce state-owned assets and set up joint ventures. However, a great portion of Chinese assets, still remains controlled by the government. In addition, the government plays a great role in the industrial development. The great level of interference of government in the business and industrial development might have adverse impact on us because we are not part of the state-owned business and our relationship with the governmental authorities might not be as strong as those state-owned enterprises.

 

China’s regulation of foreign currency exchange and cash out-flow will prevent us from remitting the profits and dividends to the United States

 

China has adopted the complicated rules that govern the foreign currency exchange and cash out-flow. Although we believe that we meet the requirements of those rules so far, we may not be able to remit all of our profits to the United States and distribute dividends to our shareholders if those rules are substantially changed to restrict the cash out-flow. The change of foreign currency exchange rate might also have negative impact on our financial performance.

 

We may face the hindrance of China's bureaucratic system.

 

Foreign companies face the political, economic and legal risks when developing business in China. China's bureaucratic system might hinder the investment from Western countries.

 

The legal system in China has some uncertainties, which may affect the implementation of laws.

 

The legal system in China is a system of civil laws, based on the provisions in the written form and according to which there is no priority to any legal matters. Until 1979, the Chinese Government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of law, which managed the economical affairs in general. Therefore, the all-sided influence of the law has been increasing protect to foreign investments of many forms in the past 28 years, since every branch we keep in China and the partners abide to Chinese laws and regulations. However, these laws and regulations are changeable, as the explanation and implementation include some uncertainty. For instance, we have to strengthen the legal protect that the law and/or the contract provide through administrative and judicial proceedings. Since the administration and the court of justice gave important consideration to the explanation of law and contract, these uncertain factors, including the unimplementation of our contract, will affect our business and management. In addition, the intellectual property and confidence protect cannot be as effective as the laws in the USA or other states. Consequently, we cannot foretell the future influences of Chinese law system, especially the part concerning the enterprises management, as well as the new-promulgated laws. The uncertainties, perhaps including the changes in law, or in the explanation to the laws as well as the replacement of national laws for the local regulations, may confine the possibilities of enforcement and the capability that we perfume the agreement with the State or other foreign investors.

Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the “Risk Factors”, “Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Description of Business” sections and elsewhere in this prospectus. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “predict,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Although we believe the expectations expressed in these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions within the bound of our knowledge of our business, our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these statements. Factors that could contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the “Risk Factors” section of this Registration Statement. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.

 

Our financial statements are prepared in US Dollars and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

OVERVIEW OF BUSINESS BACKGROUND

 

China Recycling Energy Corporation (the "Company" or "CREG") (formerly China Digital Wireless, Inc.) was incorporated on May 8, 1980, under the laws of the State of Colorado. The Company, through its subsidiary, is currently doing the business of selling and leasing energy saving equipments.  The businesses of mobile phone distribution and provision of pager and mobile phone value-added information services were discontinued in 2007. On March 8, 2007, the Company changed its name to "China Recycling Energy Corporation".

14


 

On September 6, 2001, the Company re-domiciled its state of incorporation from Colorado to Nevada.

 

On June 23, 2004, the Company entered into a stock exchange agreement with Sifang Holdings Co. Ltd. ("Sifang Holdings") and certain shareholders. Pursuant to the stock exchange agreement, the Company issued 13,782,636 shares of its common stock in exchange for a 100% equity interest in Sifang Holdings, making Sifang Holdings a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Sifang Holdings was established under the laws of the Cayman Islands on February 9, 2004 for the purpose of holding a 100% equity interest in Shanghai TCH Data Technology Co., Ltd. ("TCH"). TCH was established as a foreign investment enterprise in Shanghai under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (the "PRC") on May 25, 2004.

 

Since January 2007, the Company has gradually phased out and substantially scaled down most of its business of mobile phone distribution and provision of pager and mobile phone value-added information services. In the first and second quarter of 2007, the Company did not engage in any substantial transactions or activity in connection with these businesses. On May 10, 2007, the Company approved and announced that it completely ceased and discontinued these businesses. These businesses are reflected in continuing operations for all periods presented based on the criteria for discontinued operations prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets".

 

On February 1, 2007, the Company’s subsidiary, TCH, entered into two TRT Project Joint-Operation Agreements ("Joint-Operation Agreement") with Xi’an Yingfeng Science and Technology Co., Ltd. ("Yingfeng"). Yingfeng is a joint stock company registered in Xi’an, Shaanxi Province, the PRC, and engages in the business of designing, installing, and operating TRT systems and sales of other renewable energy products. In October 2007, the Company terminated the joint operation agreement with Yingfeng and became entitled to the rights, titles, benefits and interests in the TRT Projects.

 

On September 21, 2007, the Company’s subsidiary, TCH changed its name to "Shanghai TCH Energy Technology Co., Ltd.".


CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES


Our management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on 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 assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported net sales and expenses during the reporting periods. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements, we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis.

 

Basis of presentation

 

These accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for annual financial statements.

 

15


 

Basis of consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CREG and, its subsidiaries, Sifang Holdings, TCH, and TCH’s newly incorporated subsidiaries Xi'an TCH Energy Tech Co., Ltd. (Xi’an TCH) and Xingtai Huaxin Energy Tech Co., Ltd. (Huaxin).  Xi’an TCH and Huaxin engage in same business with TCH.  Substantially all of the Company's revenues are derived from the operations of TCH and its subsidiaries, which represents substantially all of the Company’s consolidated assets and liabilities. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.  

 

Use of estimates

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

 

Accounts receivable and concentration of credit risk

 

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amounts and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established and determined based on managements’ assessment of known requirements, aging of receivables, payment history, the customer’s current credit worthiness and the economic environment.

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable and other receivables. The Company does not require collateral or other security to support these receivables. The Company conducts periodic reviews of its clients' financial condition and customer payment practices to minimize collection risk on accounts receivable.

 

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

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost of work in progress and finished goods comprises direct material, direct production cost and an allocated portion of production overheads.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized.  When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations.  Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated lives ranging from 5 to 20 years as follows:

 

Building

              20 years

Vehicle

                           2 - 5 years

Office and Other Equipment

           2 - 5 years

Software  

           2 - 3 years

 

Sales-type leasing and related revenue recognition

 

The Company invests and leases TRT system to Xingtai and Zhangzhi under a joint operation arrangement with Yingfeng. Ultimately, the Company will transfer all benefits, risks and ownership of the TRT system to Xingtai and Zhangzhi at the end of the lease term. The Company’s investment in these projects is recorded as Sales-type lease in accordance with SFAS No. 13, "Accounting for Leases" and its various amendments and interpretations. The sales and cost of goods sold is recognized at the point of sale. The investment in sales-type lease consists of the sum of the total minimum lease payments receivable less unearned interest income. Unearned interest income is amortized to income over the lease term as to produce a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the lease.  The gross investment on sales-type leases is recorded net of unearned interest income.

16


 

Foreign Currency Translation and Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

The Company’s functional currency is the Renminbi (“RMB”). For financial reporting purposes, RMB has been translated into United States dollars ("USD") as the reporting currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the reporting period. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of stockholders' equity as "Accumulated other comprehensive income". Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in income. There has been no significant fluctuation in exchange rate for the conversion of RMB to USD after the balance sheet date.

 

The Company uses SFAS 130 “Reporting Comprehensive Income”. Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to the statements of stockholders’ equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders.

 

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

Business Combinations

 

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007), Business Combinations (“SFAS 141R”). SFAS 141R will significantly change the accounting for business combinations. Under SFAS 141R, an acquiring entity will be required to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value with limited exceptions. SFAS 141R will change the accounting treatment for certain specific items, including:

 

Acquisition costs will be generally expensed as incurred;

Noncontrolling interests (formerly known as “minority interests” - see SFAS 160 discussion below) will be valued at fair value at the acquisition date;

Acquired contingent liabilities will be recorded at fair value at the acquisition date and subsequently measured at either the higher of such amount or the amount determined under existing guidance for non-acquired contingencies;

In-process research and development will be recorded at fair value as an indefinite-lived intangible asset at the acquisition date;

Restructuring costs associated with a business combination will be generally expensed subsequent to the acquisition date; and

Changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the acquisition date generally will affect income tax expense.

 

SFAS 141R also includes a substantial number of new disclosure requirements. SFAS 141R 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. Earlier adoption is prohibited. Accordingly, since we are a calendar year-end company we will continue to record and disclose business combinations following existing GAAP until January 1, 2009. We expect SFAS 141R will have an impact on accounting for business combinations once adopted but the effect is dependent upon acquisitions at that time.

 

Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – An Amendment of ARB No. 51

 

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - An Amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Specifically, this statement requires the recognition of a noncontrolling interest (minority interest) as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent’s equity. The amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. SFAS 160 clarifies that changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial interest. In addition, this statement requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair value of the noncontrolling equity investment on the deconsolidation date. SFAS 160 also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its noncontrolling interest. SFAS 160 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Like SFAS 141R discussed above, earlier adoption is prohibited. We have not completed our evaluation of the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of SFAS 160 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

 

17


 

Fair Value Measurements

 

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” which establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements required under the accounting pronouncements, but does not change existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value. Additionally, it establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is encouraged, provided that the reporting entity has not yet issued financial statements for fiscal year, including financial statements for an interim period within the fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, that SFAS No. 157 will have on its financial statements.

 

Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an Amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132R

 

In September 2006, the FASB, issued SFAS, No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an Amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132R,” which requires employers to recognize the underfunded or overfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in the funded status in the year in which the changes occur through accumulated other comprehensive income. Additionally, SFAS No. 158 requires employers to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position. The new reporting requirements and related new footnote disclosure rules of SFAS No. 158 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006. We adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 158 for the year end 2006, and the effect of recognizing the funded status in accumulated other comprehensive income was not significant. The new measurement date requirement applies for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008.

 

Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

 

In February of 2007 the FASB issued SFAS 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.”  The statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions.  The statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007.  The Company is analyzing the potential accounting treatment.

 

Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements

 

In September 2006, the SEC issued SAB No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements” (“SAB 108”), which provides interpretive guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. The Company adopted SAB 108 in the fourth quarter of 2006 with no impact on its financial statements.

SALES.  Net sales for 2007 were approximately $9.30 million while our net sales in 2006, were approximately $2.89 million, an increase in revenues of $6.41 million, or 223%.  The increase was due to changing of our business type in 2007.  We discontinued our mobile phone business and commenced selling and manufacturing of energy saving equipment during 2007.  We sell our equipment through sales-type leasing, the interest income of which will be our main revenue in additional to sales revenue. We believe our sales will continue to grow because we are strengthening our sales efforts by hiring more sales person and increasing the sales channels, and improving the quality of our products.

 

COST OF SALES.  Cost of sales for 2007 were approximately $7.03 million while our cost of sales in 2006, were approximately $2.31 million, an increase of $4.73 million, or 205%. The increase in cost of sale attributed to changing in our business type from mobile phone business to selling and manufacturing the energy saving equipment in 2007.  Cost of sales as a percentage of sales was approximately 76% for 2007 and was 80% for 2006.  We believe that our cost of sales will remain constant as a percentage of sales as we will improve our control on the efficiency of manufacturing facility.

 

GROSS PROFIT.  Gross profit was $2.27 million for 2007 as compared to $0.58 million for 2006, representing gross margins of approximately 24% and 20% for 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase in our gross profit and gross profit margin was mainly due to changing in our business type from mobile phone business to selling and manufacturing the energy saving equipment in 2007.

 

OPERATING EXPENSES.  Operating expenses consisted of selling, general and administrative expenses totaled approximately $542,434 for 2007 as compared to $14.69 million for 2006, a huge decrease of approximately $14.15 million.  We’ve commenced our new business of selling and manufacturing energy saving equipments in 2007, our operating expenses was relatively low as we were in the initial stage of the business.  In 2006, we’ve written off about $6.46 million bad debts and $7.11 million impairment loss on deposit for business acquisition and property and equipment.

NET INCOME.  Our net income for the year ended December 31, 2007 was $1.88 million as compared to approximately $14.02 million net loss for the year ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $15.90 million.  This increase was mainly due to changing of our business type and structure in 2007, and our write-off of bad debts and deposits for acquisition of business and fixed assets in 2006.  Our management believes that net income will continue to increase as we will continue to increase our sales, offer better quality products and control our manufacturing costs.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 as compared to fiscal year ended December 31, 2006

 

As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1.63 million and $252,000, respectively.  At December 31, 2007, other current assets of approximately $13.60 million and current liabilities of approximately $5.85 million, while other current assets were approximately $766,337 and current liabilities were approximately $1.12 million at December 31, 2006. Working capital amounted to $9.38 million at December 31, 2007, compared to negative working capital of $(99,638) at December 31, 2006, an increase of $9.48 million.  The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.6-to-1 at the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to 0.9-to-1 at the year ended December 31, 2006.  The increase in working capital in 2007 compared to 2006 was primarily due to obtaining $5 million convertible notes, and increased sales and interest income during 2007 by changing our business type from mobile phone business to selling and manufacturing the energy saving equipments; the increase in the current ratio in 2007 comparing with 2006 was primarily related to increase in current portion of investment on sales-type leases, advance to suppliers and increase in inventory level.

The increase in net cash inflows from operating activities in fiscal 2007 was mainly due to the increase in our income from sales-type leasing on the two TRT machines, and increased in our accounts payable and other payables.

 

Net cash flow used in investing activities was $8.64 million for 2007, as compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $963 in 2006.

Net cash flow provided by financing activities was $5,068,583 in 2007 as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $nil for 2006. The increase of net cash flow provided by financing activities in 2007 was mainly due to issuance of convertible notes with 10% interest rate and maturity date on November 16, 2009.

 ITEM 8A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company's internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Any system of internal control, no matter how well designed, has inherent limitations, including the possibility that a control can be circumvented or overridden and misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected in a timely manner. Also, because of changes in conditions, internal control effectiveness may vary over time. Accordingly, even an effective system of internal control will provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation.

 

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in "Internal Control-Integrated Framework." Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that as of December 31, 2007, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective because of the material weaknesses described below.  A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the registrant's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.  In its assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, management determined that our internal control over financial reporting was subject to the following material weaknesses:

 

Inadequate staffing and supervision within the accounting operations of our company - The relatively small number of employees who are responsible for accounting functions prevents us from segregating duties within our internal control system.  The inadequate segregation of duties is a weakness because it could lead to the untimely identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters or could lead to a failure to perform timely and effective reviews.  

 

Lack of expertise in U.S accounting principles among the personnel in our Chinese headquarters - Our books are maintained at our executive offices in the City of Xi’an, then translated into English and adjusted to reflect U.S accounting principles by outside financial consultant. The lack of personnel in our Xi’an office who are trained in U.S. accounting principles is a weakness because it could lead to improper classification of items and other failures to make the entries and adjustments necessary to comply with U.S. GAAP.


Lack of Internal Audit System - The company lacked of internal audit department, which was ineffective in preventing and detecting control lapses and errors in the accounting of certain key areas like revenue recognition, purchase approvals, inter-company transactions, cash receipt and cash disbursement authorizations, inventory safeguard and proper accumulation for cost of products, in accordance with the appropriate costing method used by the company.

 

22


 

The Company’s management has identified the steps necessary to address the material weaknesses existing in 2007 described above, as follows:

 

1.             Hiring additional accounting and operations personnel and engaging outside contractors with technical accounting expertise, as needed, and reorganizing the accounting and finance department to ensure that accounting personnel with adequate experience, skills and knowledge relating to complex, non-routine transactions are directly involved in the review and accounting evaluation of our complex, non-routine transactions;

 

2.             Involving both internal accounting and operations personnel and outside contractors with technical accounting expertise, as needed, early in the evaluation of a complex, non-routine transaction to obtain additional guidance as to the application of generally accepted accounting principles to such a proposed transaction;

 

3.             Documenting to standards established by senior accounting personnel and the principal accounting officer the review, analysis and related conclusions with respect to complex, non-routine transactions;

 

4.             Requiring senior accounting personnel and the principal accounting officer to review complex, non-routine transactions to evaluate and approve the accounting treatment for such transactions;

 

5.             Interviewing prospective new Directors for our Board including a member who is appropriately credentialed as a financial expert with a goal to establish both an Audit and Compensation committee as well as sufficient independent Directors; and

 

6.             Evaluating the internal audit function in relation to the Company’s financial resources and requirements.

 

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the company to provide only management's report in this Annual Report.

Consolidated Financial Statements

For The Years Ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 (Restated)

(With Reports of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Thereon)


REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of China Digital Wireless, Inc.

We have audited, before the effects of the adjustments for the correction of the error described in Note 18(b), the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of China Digital Wireless, Inc. and Subsidiaries ("the Company") as of December 31, 2006 and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2006 (the 2006 financial statements before the effects of the adjustments discussed in Note 18(b) are not presented herein). These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Our audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, except for the error described in Note 18(b), the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2006 and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred substantial losses which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

As discussed in Note 18(a), the Company's consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2006 and for the year then ended have been restated.

We were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the adjustments for the correction of the error described in Note 18 (b) and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance about whether such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied. Those adjustments were audited by Goldman Park Kurland Mohidin.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Stockholders of
China Recycling Energy Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of China Recycling Energy Corporation (the "Company" or "CREG") and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and the related consolidated statements of income and other comprehensive income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2007. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of China Recycling Energy Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and the consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We also have audited the adjustment described in Note 18 (b) that was applied to restate the 2006 financial statements to correct an error. In our opinion, such adjustment is appropriate and has been properly applied. We were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the 2006 financial statements of the Company other than with respect to the adjustment and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on the 2006 financial statements as a whole.

1. ORGANIZATION AND DISCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

China Recycling Energy Corporation (the "Company" or "CREG") (formerly China Digital Wireless, Inc.) was incorporated on May 8, 1980, under the laws of the State of Colorado. The Company, through its subsidiary, is currently doing the business of selling and leasing energy saving equipments. The businesses of mobile phone distribution and provision of pager and mobile phone value-added information services were discontinued in 2007. On March 8, 2007, the Company changed its name to "China Recycling Energy Corporation". On September 6, 2001, the Company re-domiciled its state of incorporation from Colorado to Nevada. On June 23, 2004, the Company entered into a stock exchange agreement with Sifang Holdings Co. Ltd. ("Sifang Holdings") and certain shareholders. Pursuant to the stock exchange agreement, the Company issued 13,782,636 shares of its common stock in exchange for a 100% equity interest in Sifang Holdings, making Sifang Holdings a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Sifang Holdings was established under the laws of the Cayman Islands on February 9, 2004 for the purpose of holding a 100% equity interest in Shanghai TCH Data Technology Co., Ltd. ("TCH"). TCH was established as a foreign investment enterprise in Shanghai under the laws of the People's Republic of China (the "PRC") on May 25, 2004.

Since January 2007, the Company has gradually phased out and substantially scaled down most of its business of mobile phone distribution and provision of pager and mobile phone value-added information services. In the first and second quarter of 2007, the Company did not engage in any substantial transactions or activity in connection to these businesses. On May 10, 2007, the Company approved and announced that it completely ceased and discontinued these businesses. These businesses are reflected in continuing operations for all periods presented based on the criteria for discontinued operations prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". On February 1, 2007, the Company's subsidiary, TCH, entered into two TRT Project Joint-Operation Agreements ("Joint-Operation Agreement") with Xi'an Yingfeng Science and Technology Co., Ltd. ("Yingfeng"). Yingfeng is a joint stock company registered in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province, the PRC, and engages in the business of designing, installing, and operating TRT systems and sales of other renewable energy products. In October 2007, the Company terminated the joint operation agreement with Yingfeng and became entitled to the rights, titles, benefits and interests in the TRT Projects.

Under the Joint-Operation Agreement, TCH and Yingfeng jointly operate a top gas recovery turbine projects ("TRT Project") which is to design, construct, install and operate a TRT system and lease to Zhangzhi Iron and Steel Holdings Ltd. ("Zhangzhi"). The total investment costs contributed by TCH are approximately $1,426,000 (equivalent to RMB 10,690,000). TCH provides various forms of investments and properties into the TRT Project including cash, hardware, software, equipments, major components and devices. The construction of the TRT Project was completed and put into operation in August 2007. In October 2007, the Company terminated the joint operation agreement with Yingfeng. TCH became entitled to the rights, titles, benefits and interests in the TRT Project and received a monthly rental payment of approximately $147,000 (equivalent to RMB 1,100,000) from Zhangzhi for a lease term of thirteen years. At the end of the lease term, TCH transfers the rights and titles of the TRT Project to Zhangzhi without cost.

Under another Joint-Operation Agreement, TCH and Yingfeng jointly operate a TRT Project which is to design, construct, install and operate a TRT system and lease to Xingtai Iron and Steel Company Ltd. ("Xingtai"). TCH provides various forms of investments and properties into the TRT Project including cash, hardware, software, equipments, major components and devices. The total estimated investment cost of this TRT Project is approximately $3,900,000 (equivalent to RMB 30,000,000). The construction of the TRT Project was completed and put into operation in February 2007. In October 2007, the Company terminated the joint operation agreement with Yingfeng. TCH became entitled to all the rights, titles, benefits and interests of the TRT Project and received a monthly rental payment of approximately $116,930 (equivalent to RMB 900,000) from Xingtai for a lease term of five years. At the end of the lease term, TCH transfers all the rights and titles of the TRT Project to Xingtai without cost.

On September 21, 2007, the Company's subsidiary, TCH changed its name to "Shanghai TCH Energy Technology Co., Ltd.".

Except as indicated, amounts reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements or the notes thereto relate to our continuing operations.


2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

These accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for annual financial statements.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CREG and, its subsidiaries, Sifang Holdings, TCH, and TCH's newly incorporated subsidiaries Xi'an TCH Energy Tech Co., Ltd. (Xi'an TCH) and Xingtai Huaxin Energy Tech Co., Ltd. (Huaxin). Xi'an TCH and Huaxin engage in same business with TCH. Substantially all of the Company's revenues are derived from the operations of TCH and its subsidiaries, which represents substantially all of the Company's consolidated assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2007. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates

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

Cash and cash equivalents

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

Accounts receivable and concentration of credit risk

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amounts and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established and determined based on managements' assessment of known requirements, aging of receivables, payment history, the customer's current credit worthiness and the economic environment. As of December 31, 2007, the Company recorded no allowance for doubtful accounts. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable and other receivables. The Company does not require collateral or other security to support these receivables. The Company conducts periodic reviews of its clients' financial condition and customer payment practices to minimize collection risk on accounts receivable.

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

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost of work in progress and finished goods comprises direct material, direct production cost and an allocated portion of production overheads.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated lives ranging from 5 to 20 years as follows:

Vehicle

2 - 5 years

Office and Other Equipment

2 - 5 years

Software

2 - 3 years

Impairment of long-life assets

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," the Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying amount of the asset. There has been no impairment as of December 31, 2007.

Sales-type leasing and related revenue recognition

The Company invests and leases TRT system to Xingtai and Zhangzhi under a joint operation arrangement with Yingfeng. Ultimately, the Company will transfer all benefits, risks and ownership of the TRT system to Xingtai and Zhangzhi at the end of the lease term. The Company's investment in these projects is recorded as Sales-type lease in accordance with SFAS No. 13, "Accounting for Leases" and its various amendments and interpretations. The sales and cost of goods sold is recognized at the point of sale. The investment in sales-type lease consists of the sum of the total minimum lease payments receivable less unearned interest income. Unearned interest income is amortized to income over the lease term as to produce a constant periodic rate of return on the net investment in the lease. The gross investment on sales-type lease is recorded as net of unearned interest income.

Cost of good sold

Cost of revenue consists primarily of purchase price of the two TRT machines, and expenses occurred directly for project construction.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The Company does not have any significant deferred tax asset or liability that related to tax jurisdictions not covered by the tax holiday.

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, on January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company made a comprehensive review of its portfolio of tax positions in accordance with recognition standards established by FIN 48. As a result of the implementation of Interpretation 48, the Company recognized no material adjustments to liabilities or stockholders equity. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest associated with unrecognized tax benefits are classified as interest expense and penalties are classified in selling, general and administrative expenses in the statements of income. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.


2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Statement of Cash Flows

In accordance with SFAS No. 95, "Statement of Cash Flows," cash flows from the Company's operations is calculated based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows may not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported in the statements of financial position for current assets and current liabilities qualifying as financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Basic and diluted earning per share (EPS)

Basic EPS is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is computed similar to basic net income per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Diluted net earning per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. The following table presents a reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

Foreign Currency Translation and Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The Company's functional currency is the Renminbi ("RMB"). For financial reporting purposes, RMB has been translated into United States dollars ("USD") as the reporting currency. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the reporting period. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of stockholders' equity as "Accumulated other comprehensive income". Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in income. There has been no significant fluctuation in exchange rate for the conversion of RMB to USD after the balance sheet date.


2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

The Company uses SFAS 130 "Reporting Comprehensive Income". Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to the statements of stockholders' equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders.

Segment Reporting

SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" requires use of the "management approach" model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company's management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company. SFAS 131 has no effect on the Company's financial statements as substantially all of the Company's operations are conducted in one industry segment. All of the Company's assets are located in the PRC.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Business Combinations

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007), Business Combinations ("SFAS 141R"). SFAS 141R will significantly change the accounting for business combinations. Under SFAS 141R, an acquiring entity will be required to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value with limited exceptions. SFAS 141R will change the accounting treatment for certain specific items, including:

SFAS 141R also includes a substantial number of new disclosure requirements. SFAS 141R 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. Earlier adoption is prohibited. Accordingly, since we are a calendar yearend company we will continue to record and disclose business combinations following existing GAAP until January 1, 2009. We expect SFAS 141R will have an impact on accounting for business combinations once adopted but the effect is dependent upon acquisitions at that time.

Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - An Amendment of ARB No. 51

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - An Amendment of ARB No. 51 ("SFAS 160"). SFAS 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Specifically, this statement requires the recognition of a noncontrolling interest (minority interest) as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent's equity. The amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. SFAS 160 clarifies that changes in a parent's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial interest. In addition, this statement requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair value of the noncontrolling equity investment on the deconsolidation date. SFAS 160 also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its noncontrolling interest. SFAS 160 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Like SFAS 141R discussed above, earlier adoption is prohibited. We have not completed our evaluation of the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of SFAS 160 on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.


2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Fair Value Measurements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements," which establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements required under the accounting pronouncements, but does not change existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value. Additionally, it establishes a

fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is encouraged, provided that the reporting entity has not yet issued financial statements for fiscal year, including financial statements for an interim period within the fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, that SFAS No. 157 will have on its financial statements.

Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an Amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132R

In September 2006, the FASB, issued SFAS, No. 158, "Employers' Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an Amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132R," which requires employers to recognize the underfunded or overfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in the funded status in the year in which the changes occur through accumulated other comprehensive income. Additionally, SFAS No. 158 requires employers to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position. The new reporting requirements and related new footnote disclosure rules of SFAS No. 158 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006. We adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 158 for the year end 2006, and the effect of recognizing the funded status in accumulated other comprehensive income was not significant. The new measurement date requirement applies for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008.

Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In February of 2007 the FASB issued SFAS 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115." The statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity's first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company is analyzing the potential accounting treatment.

Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements

In September 2006, the SEC issued SAB No. 108, "Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements" ("SAB 108"), which provides interpretive guidance on the consideration of the effects of prior year misstatements in quantifying current year misstatements for the purpose of a materiality assessment. The Company adopted SAB 108 in the fourth quarter of 2006 with no impact on its financial statements.


3. NET INVESTMENT IN SALES-TYPE LEASES

Other payable mainly consisted of no interest bearing short term advance from an individual for operating purpose, amount payable to its employees for business expenses reimbursement, and payable to Yingfeng for the cost of obtaining the ownership of two TRT projects which was previously owned by Yinfeng in the amount of $1,747,903.


7. ADVANCE FROM MANAGEMENT

Advance from management represented the balances due to a director for unsecured advances which are interest free and repayable in the next twelve months.

8. MINORITY INTEREST

Minority interest represented 20% equity interest in Huaxin. Huaxin was incorporated in November 2, 2007, and engages in similar business with TCH. At December 31, 2007, minority interest was $15,080.

9. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Since January 2007, the Company has gradually phased out and substantially scaled down most of its business of mobile phone distribution and provision of pager and mobile phone value-added information services. In the first and second quarter of 2007, the Company did not engage in any substantial transaction or activity in connection with these businesses. On May 10, 2007, the Company approved and announced that it completely ceased and discontinued these businesses. Accordingly, the results of the discontinued operations have been segregated from continuing operations. The discontinued operations incurred an income of $28,699 for the year ended December 31, 2007. The income represented the write down of deferred revenue generated from the provision of pager value-added information services.

10. CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

On November 16, 2007, the Company entered into a Stock and Notes Purchase Agreement ("Purchase Agreement") with investors. Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company sold to the Investors a 10% Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $5,000,000 (the "First Note"). Additionally, the Purchase agreement provides for two subsequent transactions to be effected by the Company and the Investors, which include (i) the issuance by the Company and subscription by the Investors of a total of 4,066,706 shares of common stock of Company, at the price of $1.23 per share for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $5,000,000, and (ii) the issuance and sale by the Company to the Investors of a 5% Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $15,000,000 (the "Second Note" and collectively with the First Note, the "Notes") (the foregoing transactions, together with sale and purchase of the First Note, are hereinafter referred to as the "Offering"). The subsequent transactions are contingent upon the satisfaction of certain conditions specified in the Purchase Agreement, including entry into specified energy and recycling project contracts and the purchase of certain energy recycling systems.

The First Note bears interest at 10% per annum and matures on November 16, 2009. The principal face amount of the First Note, together with any interest thereon, convert, at the option of the holders at any time on or prior to maturity, into shares of the Company's common stock at an initial conversion price of $1.23 per share (subject to anti-dilution adjustments). The First Note is subject to mandatory conversion upon the consummation of the aforementioned issuance and subscription of shares of the Company's common stock under the Purchase Agreement. As more fully described in the First Note, the obligations of the Company under the First Note shall rank senior to all other debt of the Company.

As collateral for the First Note, the President and a major shareholder of the Company pledged 9,653,471 of the shares of Company's common stock held by him to secure the First Note. This convertible note was considered to have an embedded beneficial conversion feature because the conversion price was less than the quoted market price at the time of the issuance. Accordingly, the beneficial conversion feature of $ 5,000,000 was recorded separately as unamortized beneficial conversion feature based on the intrinsic value method per EITF 00-27. The note is recorded in the balance sheet at face value less the unamortized beneficial conversion feature of $4,621,918.

11. INCOME TAXES

The Company is governed by the Income Tax Law of the PRC concerning privately-run enterprises, which are generally subject to tax at a statutory rate of 33% on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriated tax adjustments. The Company's subsidiary generated substantially all of its net income from its PRC operation. Its effective income tax rates for 2007 were 15%. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2007 would have been lower by approximately $531,000 if the Company did not benefit the from the income tax discount.


There is no income tax for companies domiciled in the Cayman Islands. Accordingly, the Company's consolidated financial statements do not present any income tax provisions related to Cayman Islands tax jurisdiction.

Any enterprise operating in the PRC is subject to government-mandated employee welfare and retirement benefit contributions.

During 2007, TCH disposed its mobile phone business and hired new group of employees for its new business of energy recycling machinery construction project, no contribution was required for employees under probation, thus, TCH contributed a total of $0 and $45,122 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

14. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLAN

On November 13, 2007, the Company approved the 2007 Non-statutory Stock Option Plan (the "2007 Plan"), and granted stock options with an aggregate amount of 3,000,000 shares of the stock at $1.23 per share to acquire the Company's common stock at par value $0.001 to twenty (20) managerial and non-managerial employees under the 2007 Plan.

The vesting terms of options granted under the 2007 Plan is subject to the Non-Statutory Stock Option Agreements for managerial and non-managerial employees. For managerial employees, no more than 15% of the total stock options shall vest and become exercisable on the six month anniversary of the grant date. An additional 15% and 50% of the total stock options shall vest and become exercisable on the first and second year anniversary of the grant date, respectively. The remaining 20% of the total stock options shall vest and become exercisable on the third year anniversary of the grant date. For non-managerial employees, no more than 30% of the total stock options shall vest and become exercisable in the first year anniversary of the grant date. An additional 50% of the total stock options shall vest and become exercisable in the second year anniversary of the grant date. The remaining 20% of the total stock options shall vest and become exercisable on the third year anniversary of the grant date. Each stock option shall become vested and exercisable over a period of no longer than five years from the grant date. Based on the fair value method under FAS 123R, the fair value of each stock option granted is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes option pricing model has assumptions for risk free interest rates, dividends, stock volatility and expected life of an option grant. The risk free interest rate is based upon market yields for United States Treasury debt securities at a maturity near the term remaining on the option. Dividend rates are based on the Company's dividend history. The stock volatility factor is based on the historical volatility of the Company's stock price. The expected life of an option grant is based on management's estimate as no options have been exercised in the Plan to date. The fair value of each option grant to employees is calculated by the Black-Scholes method and is recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period of each stock option award. For stock options issued during the year ended December 31, 2007, the fair value was estimated at the date of grant using the following range of assumptions:

The options vest over a period of three years and have a life of 5 years, Volatility of 100%, risk free interest rate of 3.76%, and dividend yield of 0%. No estimate of forfeitures was made as the company has a short history of granting options.
