OVERVIEW

HQ Global Education Inc. (the "Company", "we", "us" or "our") is a Delaware corporation incorporated on January 22, 2008.  We are headquartered in Hunan Province, China. Currently, the Company's common stock is trading on the Over-the Counter Bulletin Board under the ticker HQGE.OB.

We provide vocational education and vocational training services to a varied student population throughout China. We generate revenue from tuition, school logistics services, and off-campus internship management fees. Our services are developed with many target employers to provide them with the skilled workers they require. As a consequence, 100% of our graduates obtain jobs with our cooperative companies. We offer a wide range of educational programs and services through vocational schools, consisting primarily of "Customized Education" programs for various vocational skills and school logistic services and have a 100% graduation rate. We provide educational services under our "HQ" brand. We believe our "HQ" brand is a famous brand in China's private vocational education sector, as evidenced by awards we received from many government authorities and semi-government entities, including the title of "State-level Key Secondary Vocational Schools" granted by the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China, and the title of "Famous Non-government Funded School" and the "Entity with Outstanding Contributions" granted by the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (the "CPPCC").

Since we started operations in 1994, we have had approximately 115,270 cumulative student enrollments. For the twelve months ended August 31, 2011, we had 15,118 newly-enrolled students. We deliver our educational programs to students through eleven schools and have approximately 3,070 faculty members as of August 31, 2011.

We have experienced significant growth in our business in recent years. For the year ended August 31, 2011, our total revenue was $55,572,631, representing an increase of $8,517,325 or 18.1% as compared with $47,055,306 for the year ended August 31, 2010. Our gross profit for the year ended August 31, 2011 was $21,283,067, representing an increase of $3,351,280 or 18.7% as compared with $17,931,787 for the prior year. For the years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010, net revenues from our "Customized Education" accounted for 15.5% and 13.0%, respectively. Our net income increased from $13,569,003 for the year ended August 31, 2010 as compared to $16,763,394 for the year ended August 31, 2011, demonstrating an annual growth rate of 23.5%.

OUR CORPORATE HISTORY AND STRUCTURE

Mr. Guangwen He, our President and Chief Executive Officer, established Ningxiang Huanqiu Computer Training School (the predecessor of Changsha Huanqiu) in Ningxiang County, Changsha, China in August 1994 to offer computer training services. Since its inception, Changsha Huanqiu has grown rapidly and transformed itself from primarily a computer training school to a comprehensive provider of vocational education , skill training services, and a wide range of educational services and products to a variety of students throughout China. Mr. He established Shaoshan Huanqiu in Shaoshan City on May 15, 2006 to provide secondary vocational education and training services.

Risetime Group Limited ("Risetime") was incorporated in the British Virgin Islands on December 17, 2007. Global Education International Limited ("Global Education") was incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong on November 15, 2007. Global Education became the wholly owned subsidiary of Risetime on July 31, 2009. Global Education formed Xiangtan Nicestar Business Administration Co., Ltd. as a wholly foreign owned enterprise ("WFOE") under the laws of the PRC on September 30, 2009.

Hunan Oya Education Technology Co., Ltd ("Oya"), the operating company in the PRC, was organized under the laws of the PRC in November 20, 2008 and is directly owned by Mr. Guangwen He and Mrs. Yabin Zhong.

Under the laws of the PRC, a foreign (non-PRC) company cannot acquire Oya directly. As a result, WFOE entered into a series of contractual agreements with Oya, which we believe gives us effective control over Oya. These agreements are described in detail under the section "Contractual Arrangements between WFOE, Oya and its Shareholders".

We operate four private secondary vocational schools (Changsha Huanqiu Vocational Secondary School (“Changsha Huanqiu”), Shaoshan Huanqiu Vocational Technical Secondary School (“Shaoshan Huanqiu”), New HQ Technical and Tianzhen Huanqiu Vocational Secondary School(“Tianzhen Huanqiu”)) and two public secondary vocational school (Shaoshan Vocational School, Zhangwu Vocational Secondary School ) in China through Oya. Changsha Huanqiu and Shaoshan Huanqiu are owned by Mr. Guangwen He. New HQ Technical, Tianzhen Huanqiu and Zhangwu are directly owned by Oya. Through Changsha Huanqiu, we operate five public secondary vocational schools, Yingjing Vocational School, Tianquan Vocational School, Shimian Vocational School, Lushan Vocational School and Shaoyang Vocational School. For a description of these arrangements, see " Two Contractual Arrangements for the Operation of Private Vocational Schools" and " Seven Contractual Arrangements for the Operation of Seven Public Vocational Schools".

REVERSE ACQUISITION

On February 8, 2010, Green Star entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Risetime, and its sole shareholder, Nicestar International Limited ("Nicestar"), a British Virgin Islands company (the "Share Exchange Agreement"). Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, Nicestar agreed to transfer all of its shares of the capital stock of Risetime, in exchange for 20,500,000 newly issued shares of Green Star's common stock that would, in the aggregate, constitute 62.12% of Green Star's issued and outstanding capital stock as of and immediately after the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement. Upon the consummation of the reverse acquisition, Nicestar becomes Green Star's controlling stockholder.

As a result of the reverse acquisition, Green Star acquired 100% of the capital stock of Risetime and consequently, control of the business and operations of Risetime and its affiliated entities. Prior to the reverse acquisition, Green Star was in the development stage engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties and had not yet realized any revenues from operations. From and after the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement, Green Star's primary operations consist of the business and operations of Risetime, which are conducted by Oya and its affiliated entities.

Upon the closing of the reverse acquisition, On February 11, 2010, Green Star's sole director and officer, Mr. Yi Chen, submitted his resignation letter pursuant to which he resigned, effective immediately, from all offices of Green Star that he held and from his position as Green Star's director. Simultaneously, five new directors were appointed, including three independent directors. Mr. Guangwen He was appointed as our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board at the closing of the reverse acquisition.

The structure after the reverse acquisition is illustrated as below:

We have also been granted a new symbol ("HQGE") on the OTC Bulletin Board.

EDUCATION INDUSTRY AND MARKET OPPORTUNITY IN CHINA

Reflecting the magnitude of the overall population, the size of the education and training market in China is the largest in the world and growing rapidly. According to the World Bank Study which was issued on June 19, 2007, among China's approximately 1.3 billion population, around 260 million are students enrolled in basic, secondary and higher education programs and an additional 68 million adults are enrolled in a variety of other education and training programs. Education spending in China is expected to grow rapidly as demand for more skilled labor force grows and the participation rate in the educational system increases consequently. The growth in educational spending will likely be driven by several factors, including favorable demographic trends, growth in per capita and disposable income, the limited supply of educational resources and growing demand and government initiatives.

In 1986, the PRC government implemented a system of compulsory education that requires each child to have at least nine years of formal education. When students finish the nine-year compulsory education, they have two educational options: (a) high schools or (b) secondary vocational schools. High school graduates also have two educational options: (a) bachelor degree colleges and (b) higher vocational schools. Secondary vocational school students can be admitted to higher vocational schools if they pass the required tests. Higher vocational school students can be admitted to bachelor degree colleges if they pass the required tests.

China has one of the fastest growing economies in the world. As China's economy continues to expand, the demand for skilled workers will increase. There is a wide-spread shortage of senior blue collar workers in China. In the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta and some coastal areas, many enterprises operations suffer from a shortage of skilled workers. In some instances, factories have to be shut down due to the lack of qualified skilled workers.

Secondary vocational schools that train skilled workers have witnessed great booms and their graduates are in high demand. Many large companies establish cooperative relationship with vocational schools, paying a fee to schools to train their workers or rely heavily on these schools for recruitment of skill workers.

Vocational education has also gained support from the Chinese government. The Chinese government believes that there should be more vocational schools and graduates than degree colleges and graduates for the overall expansion of China's economy. All levels of government are required to speed up the development of vocational education system in their respective regions. In 2005, the State Council issued THE DECISION ON PROMOTING THE VOCATIONAL EDUCATION, which sets the state policy to speed up the development of secondary vocational education. Moreover, vocational education has been listed as one of major development objectives in the Eleventh Five-year Development Plan of China. More information is available at http://english.gov.cn/2005-10/11/content_76462.htm.

OUR STRENGTHS

We believe that the following competitive strengths contribute to our success and differentiate us from our competitors:

WELL RECOGNIZED VOCATIONAL EDUCATION BRAND IN CHINA. With a 17-year history, our"HQ" brand is a well-recognized brand in China. We have received numerous awards and recognitions. For example, Changsha Huanqiu has been granted the title of "State-level Key Secondary Vocational Schools" by the Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China; Tianquan Vocational School and Shaoshan Vocational School have been awarded as "Provincial Key Schools" by the Department of Education of Sichuan Province and Hunan Province, respectively; Changsha Huanqiu has been granted the title of "Famous Non-government Funded School" and the "Entity with Outstanding Contributions" by the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (the "CPPCC"); and the title of "Outstanding School-running Entity" by Hunan Provincial Government. Furthermore, the achievements of the Company have been widely reported by news media, such as CCTV, the People's Daily, Guangming Daily, Hong Kong Wenhui Daily, and Gov.cn, the Chinese Central Government's Official Web Portal. We believe that our established "HQ" brand allows us to further expand our market share in existing markets and target new markets and areas of vocational education.

SUCCESSFUL ORDER-ORIENTED EDUCATION MODE. Order-oriented Education, or "Customized Education", is essential to the success of the Company. Order-oriented Education refers to the educational program that tailors vocational education and training via cooperation agreements between us and various enterprises. Under Order-oriented Education, we design and offer courses to meet the specific needs of target employers. We first try to understand the requirements of the industry, such as the specific skills and the number of potential employees that are needed, and sign cooperation contracts with the enterprises. "Order-oriented Education" reflects the resource sharing between schools and enterprises. It benefits our students in their job hunting endeavors after graduation. As a consequence, student recruitment witnessed a significant expansion in recent years for our eleven schools, and up to the twelve months ended August 31, 2011, the employment rate remained 100% for the students who graduated from our educational programs. We set up cooperative relationships with 128 enterprises as of August 31, 2011, to carry out the customized training program.

EXTENSIVE PROGRAM AND SERVICE OFFERINGS. We offer a wide range of educational programs and services to a varied student population with diverse career development needs. Our offerings primarily consist of various levels and types of vocational training programs for graduates from junior secondary schools, high schools and colleges, unemployed people and rural labor force, customized

pursuant to the need and requirement of our cooperating enterprises. As ofAugust 31, 2011, we had the following 17 categories of programs available forenrollment: Mould Design and Manufacture, Numerical Control Technology, Computerand Computer Application, Computer Information Management, Computer SoftwareEngineering, Computer-aided Design, Computer Repair and Maintenance, Computer Network Engineering, Apparel Design and Technique, Electronic Commerce, Accounting, Tour and Hotel

Management, Secretary, Electronic Technology Application, Electronic & Electrical, International Trade and Electromechanical Integration. These 17 categories include about sixty programs. We believe the breadth and the diversity of our programs and services increase our addressable markets and enhance our overall revenue stability.

BROAD NATIONAL SCALE AND NETWORK. We have a broad national scale and network as compared to other providers of vocational educational services in China. We deliver our educational programs and services through a physical network of eleven schools, located in Hunan Province, Sichuan Province and Shanxi Province, as of August 31, 2011. We typically locate our schools in and around selected area with large amount of labor force supply. We believe this strategy allows us to leverage the geographic difference of labor force supply and efficiently attract prospective students.

SUCCESSFUL TRACK RECORD. We were founded in 1994 by our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Guangwen He. Since then, we have developed ourselves from a single school to educational group providing a wide range of educational programs and services to a varied student population with diverse career development needs in China. We have demonstrated significant growth in our business since our inception, especially in recent years. Our school network increased from one schools in 1994 to eleven schools as of August 31, 2011. The number of students increased from 34,000 for the year ended August 31, 2005 when we operated one vocational school, to approximately 115,270 for the eleven schools we operated during the year ended August 31, 2011. Our total net income increased from $13,569,003 for the year ended August 31, 2010 as compared to $16,763,394 for the year ended August 31, 2011, representing an increase of $3,194,391 or 23.5%.

EXPERIENCED MANAGEMENT TEAM WITH A PASSION FOR EDUCATION. Our board members have an average of approximately 17 years of experience in the education industry. Our senior management team is committed to and passionate about education. They are familiar with the vocational education sector and relevant regulatory environment in China and continue to be actively involved in our management and strategic planning. In particular, Mr. Guangwen He, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, is a renowned expert in vocational education with over 17 years of experience in the education industry and is a leader in the vocational education community in China. He has served as director of the Association for Non-Government Education of China, vice president of Association for Non-Government Education of Hunan Province, vice president of Association for Non-Government Education of Changsha City, and vice president of the Education, Science, Culture and Health Board of 10th Changsha CPPCC. He has been selected as an Expert Enjoying Special Government Allowances of the State Council. We believe that our management team's passion for education and extensive experience in the vocational education sector and relevant regulatory environment in China have enabled us to successfully manage our operations and growth, promote our brand and achieve our goals.

OUR GROWTH STRATEGY

Our goal is to grow rapidly as a leading provider of vocational educational services in China. We intend to leverage our brand and national network to achieve our goal by pursuing the following strategies:

EXPAND CAPACITY OF OUR CURRENT CAMPUSES AND IMPROVE OUR QUALITY OF TEACHING. We expect to build new teaching facilities and purchase new equipments to make the full capacity of our existing schools with a growth rate of 30%. In the meanwhile, we will improve the professional skills of our faculty team via training programs and hiring more high quality teaching staff, to ensure the professional skills of our students can meet the requirement of our enterprise clients. We also expect to reinforce our internal control, especially our decision making process and cost control and performance assessment, to maximize our work efficiency.

STRENGTHEN OUR COOPERATION WITH ENTERPRISES. We will fully utilize our educational resources and try to keep 100% student employment rate. With the increase in student enrollment, more students will be arranged to work off-campus for our cooperative companies during winter and summer vacations. This will result in the increase in our revenue of such kind of service both for enterprises and our students. Our target is to increase the number of the enterprises which have cooperation relationships with us from 128 currently to 200 in the near future; especially the world top 500 enterprises are preferred.

INTEGRATE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES AND FORM TEN BUSINESS DIVISIONS. To achieve stable, sustainable and fast development, the Company has formed ten business divisions to integrate market educational resources by the end of fiscal year 2010. Each division has an experienced manager responsible for its operation and will complete its integration in the fiscal year 2012. We will start to assess the performance of these ten business divisions in the fiscal year 2012 and expect to see their great vitality in the reports for the fiscal year 2012.   These business divisions are as follows: secondary vocational education division, remote network education division, vocational certification division, short-term training division, human resources division, pre-school education division, campus services division, teaching materials development and marketing division,   continuing education division and order-oriented education division.

ENHANCE BRAND IMAGE BUILDING. To seek sustainable development, we will enhance image building of our brand and create distinctiveness of our brand. Management believes this is essential for a stable long-term growth. We will see continuous improvement in the core capacity of our management, marketing and auditing teams as well as in our overall business capability.

BUSINESS MODEL

ORDER-ORIENTED EDUCATION

Mr. Guangwen He is the founder and CEO of Oya, the principal of Changsha Huangqiu and Shaoshan Huanqiu. He has been engaged in vocational education since 1994. With 17 years' experience in education industry, Mr. He has become a renowned expert in vocational education. Since the publication of Mr. He's book on "order-oriented education" by Hunan Science and Technology Press in 2006, "Order-oriented Education" has become our main operation mode. Over the past years, we have witnessed a fast development through school-enterprise cooperation under our order-oriented education mode.

Order-oriented Education refers to the educational program that tailors vocational education and training via cooperation agreements between us and various enterprises. Under this model, we design and offer courses to meet the specific needs of target employers. We first try to understand the requirements of the industry, such as the specific skills and the number of potential employees that are needed and sign cooperation contracts with the companies. Our schools then customize the curriculum according to the specific requirements of target employers. At this stage, our revenue is derived from the students' tuition and is recognized proportionately within the semester.

In the winter and summer breaks, work-study programs, i.e. off-campus internships, are arranged for students. Our teachers work as the team leaders for these students who are sent to different companies in groups. Through such hands-on practice, students get familiar with the business requirements and the production process. They equip themselves with skills to meet the specific requirements of the target companies. As a result, students are competent for their future positions without further training once they graduate from our secondary schools.

For these kinds of internship arrangements, commissions are charged to the companies based on the number of students they receive, with a standard charge per student each time. We also obtain management fees from students with a fixed rate per student per month. Such revenue is recognized upon the completion of the internship arrangement. Upon graduation, eligible students are usually hired by the same companies for which they interned. In such instances, students will make a one-time payment to us for employment recommendations. Based on the majors we design and the number of students we offer, we collect commissions from recruiters for employment recommendation at different rates per person. We recognize such revenue upon the completion of all the services related to the employment.

To carry out the customized training program, we set up cooperative relationships with 128 enterprises including Fuji Xerox Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., Flextronics International (Zhuhai Doumen) Industrial Park, BYD Company Limited, Shenzhen Sanyo Huaqiang Laser Electronic Co., Ltd., Foxconn Technology Group, Olympus Shenzhen Industrial, Shenzhen Seg-Hitachi and NEC Wuxi Branch, among many others.

MARKETING AND STUDENT RECRUITMENT

PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS

Our prospective students include graduates from junior secondary schools, high schools and colleges, unemployed people and the rural labor force. Currently, we have students coming from 25 provinces across China. Our students live in the dorms of the corresponding schools where they study. The average accommodation fee is RMB310 (approximately $47) per student each semester.

PROSPECTIVE EMPLOYERS FOR OUR GRADUATES

The prospective employers for our graduates include various types of enterprises, including both domestic companies and foreign companies in China, in the industries of electronics, computer, machinery, service, tourism and hotel management.

STUDENT RECRUITMENT

We believe prospective students are attracted to our schools due to our excellent brand name, the quality of our programs and the high employment rate of our graduates. We formulate our student recruitment plan based on the operation capacity of each school. We employ various marketing methods to attract students, including media advertisement, distribution of marketing materials and referrals of social celebrities, students, alumni and their parents and friends.

FACULTY

We believe that our faculty is critical to our success. As our teachers interact with our students on a daily basis, they are critical to maintaining the quality of our programs and services and to maintaining our brand and reputation. We seek to continue to hire teachers who have a strong command of the subject areas to be taught and meet our qualifications.

Our faculty members are required to undergo a job training period, during which they receive training in teaching skills and subject matter of relevant courses. We also provide various forms of continuing training, such as cross-subject training, expert seminar and practice in enterprises, so that our teachers can stay abreast of changes in industry requirements and student demands.

As of August 31, 2011, we have 3,070 faculty members in total, We engage 1,192 of the employees on a full-time basis and 1,778 on a part-time basis.

COMPETITION

The vocational education sector in China is rapidly evolving, highly fragmented and competitive, and we expect competition in this sector to persist and intensify. Most of our competitors focus on targeted markets, both in terms of the particular segments of students they aim to attract and the local markets in which they operate.

We compete with a number of PRC companies that sell educational services in the PRC. For example, we face nationwide competition for our computer courses from Xinhua Computer School, which offers computer-related courses in many cities in China. We face regional competition for our computer, electronic technique, and apparel-making programs from several competitors, such as Shandong Lanxiang Senior Technology School. We also face limited competition from many competitors that focus on providing vocational training courses in specific geographic markets in China.

We believe that the principal competitive factors in our markets include the following:

 
15

 

 
*
brand recognition;
 
*
employment rate for graduates;
 
*
overall student experience;
 
*
ability to effectively market programs, services and products to broad base of prospective students;
 
*
scope and quality of program, service and product offerings; and
 
*
alignment of programs, services and products catering to specific needs of students and employers.

We believe that our primary competitive advantages are our well-known "HQ" brand, our order-oriented education mode, our high employment rate of graduates, our close link with employers and the breadth and quality of our programs and services. However, some of our existing and potential competitors may have more resources than we do. These competitors may be able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their programs, services and products of specific professional areas in specific geographic regions.

GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS

Because our principal operation is in the PRC, our business is regulated by the national and local laws of PRC. We believe our business is in compliance with existing PRC laws, rules and regulations.

We operate our business in China under a legal framework that consists of the State Council, which is the highest executive authority of the Chinese central government, and several ministries and agencies under its authority, including the Ministry of Education ("MOE"), the State Administration of Foreign Exchange ("SAFE"), the General Administration of Press and Publication ("GAPP"), the State Administration for Industry and Commerce ("SAIC"), the Ministry of Civil Affairs ("MCA"), and their respective authorized local counterparts.

REGULATIONS ON OPERATING PRIVATE SCHOOLS The PRC central government, through the Ministry of Education, manages education in the country at a macro level. The Ministry of Education is responsible for carrying out related laws, regulations, guidelines and policies of the central government; planning development of the education sector; integrating and coordinating nationwide educational initiatives and programs; and guiding education reform countrywide. Provincial governments are left to implement policies at the micro level on a day-to-day basis, by managing basic education through development of teaching plans to supplement the coursework required from the Ministry of Education and funding of basic education in poorer areas. Provincial level governments have the main responsibilities for implementing basic education on a day to day basis. Since 1978, the PRC government has promulgated a number of administrative regulations relating to education.

The principal regulations governing private education in China consist of the Education Law of China, the Vocational Education Law of China, the Law for Promoting Private Education (2003), the Implementation Rules for the Law for Promoting Private Education (2004) and the Regulations on Chinese-Foreign Cooperation in Operating Schools and the Implementing Rules for the Regulations on Operating Chinese-Foreign Schools. These regulations are summarized below.

EDUCATION LAW OF CHINA
The Education Law of China, or the Education Law, was enacted on March 18, 1995. The Education Law sets forth provisions relating to the fundamental education systems of China, including a system of pre-school education, primary education, secondary education and higher education, a system of nine-year compulsory education and a system of education certificates. The Education Law requires the government to formulate plans for the development of education and the establishment and operation of schools and other education institutions. In principle, enterprises, social organizations and individuals are encouraged to operate schools and other types of educational organizations in accordance with Chinese laws and regulations. Nevertheless, no school or any other educational institution may be established for profit-making purposes. However, private schools may be operated for "reasonable returns," as described in more detail below.

THE VOCATIONAL EDUCATION LAW
The Vocational Education Law of China, or the Vocational Education Law, was enacted on May 15, 1995. Under the Vocational Education Law, China encourages institutions, non-governmental organizations, other public organizations and individual citizens to establish vocational schools and vocational training institutions in accordance with relevant regulations. Measures for the establishment of vocational schools and vocational training institutions within Chinese territory by a foreign organization or individual shall be formulated by the State Council. The Vocational Education Law sets forth the basic conditions for the establishment of vocational schools and training institutions. The Vocational Education Law also sets forth provisions on the joint establishment and operation of vocational education schools and institutions. Our consolidated Chinese entity, Oya has entered into Joint School-Running Agreements with the People's Government of local cities for the joint operation of Shaoshan Vocational School and Zhangwu Secondary Vocational School. Changsha Huanqiu has entered into Joint School-Running Agreements with relevant government authorities for the joint operation of five public vocational schools, Yingjing Vocational School, Tianquan Vocational School, Shimian Vocational School, Lushan Vocational School and Shaoyang Vocational School.

THE LAW FOR PROMOTING PRIVATE EDUCATION (2003) AND THE IMPLEMENTATION RULES FOR THE LAW FOR PROMOTING PRIVATE EDUCATION (2004)
The Law for Promoting Private Education (2003) became effective on September 1, 2003, and its implementing regulations, the Implementation Rules for the Law for Promoting Private Education (2004), became effective on April 1, 2004. Under these regulations, "private schools" are defined as schools established by individuals or private social organizations using private funds. Private schools providing degree education, pre-school education, education for self-study aid and other academic education are subject to approval by the education authorities, while private schools engaging in occupational qualification training and occupational skill training are subject to approvals from the authorities in charge of labor and social welfare. An approved private school will be granted an operating permit, and it must be registered with the MCA or its local counterpart as a privately run non-enterprise legal person. Our private vocational schools, Changsha Huanqiu ,Shaoshan Huanqiu and Tianzhen Huanqiu, have obtained operating permits and have been registered with the relevant local office of the MCA.

The operation of private schools is highly regulated. For example, the types and amounts of fees charged by private schools offering certifications must be approved by the relevant governmental authority and be publicly disclosed, and the types and amounts of fees charged by private schools that do not offer certifications need only be filed with the relevant governmental authority and be publicly disclosed. Our consolidated private schools, Changsha Huanqiu, Shaoshan Huanqiu and Tianzhen Huanqiu, currently offer certifications to students, and the charged fees have been approved by the local price control administrations and publicly disclosed.
 
 
17

 

Private education is treated as a public welfare undertaking under the regulations. Nonetheless, investors in a private school may elect to require "reasonable returns" from the schools. Under the regulations, an election to establish a private school as one requiring reasonable returns must be made in the articles of association of the school. For schools that have made this election, the amount of reasonable return that can be distributed to investors each year is determined based on a percentage of the school's "operating surplus," which is equal to the school's annual net income less the aggregate amount of donations received, government subsidies, if any, the amount required to be reserved for the school's development fund and other expenses as required by the regulations. This percentage is determined by the school's board of directors, taking into consideration the following factors: (i) the school's tuition and other fees, (ii) the ratio of the school's expenses used for educational activities and improving the educational conditions to the total fees collected; and (iii) the school's admission standards and educational quality. Information relating to these factors must be publicly disclosed before the school's board determines the percentage of the school's annual net balance that can be distributed as reasonable returns. This disclosed information and the decision to distribute reasonable returns must also be filed with the approval authorities within 15 days from the decision made by the board. However, none of the current Chinese laws and regulations provides a formula or other guidelines for determining "reasonable returns." In addition, none of the current Chinese laws and regulations sets forth different requirements or restrictions on a private school's ability to operate its education business based on such school's status as a school that requires reasonable returns or a school that has not made this election.

At the end of each fiscal year, private schools are required to allocate a certain amount to their development fund for the construction and maintenance of the school and the procurement and upgrade of educational equipment. For private schools that require reasonable returns, this amount must be no less than 25% of the annual net income or the annual increase in the net assets of the school, while for other private schools, this amount must be no less than 25% of the annual increase in the net assets of the school, if any. Private schools that have not elected to require reasonable returns are entitled to the same preferential tax treatment as public schools. The regulations require that preferential tax treatment policies applicable to private schools requiring reasonable returns to be formulated by the finance authority, taxation authority and other authorities under the State Council, but to date no such regulations have been promulgated by the relevant authorities. Neither of our consolidated private schools is established as a school that requires reasonable returns. We may change the status of our consolidated private schools to schools requiring reasonable returns in future.

REGULATIONS ON CHINESE-FOREIGN COOPERATION IN OPERATING SCHOOLS Chinese-foreign cooperation in the operation of schools and training programs is specifically governed by the Regulations on Operating Chinese-Foreign Schools, issued by the State Council in 2003 and the Implementing Rules for the Regulations on Operating Chinese-Foreign Schools issued by the MOE in 2004 (the "Implementing Rules").

The Regulations on Operating Chinese-Foreign Schools and the Implementing Rules encourage substantive cooperation between overseas educational organizations with relevant qualifications and experience in providing high-quality education and Chinese educational organizations to jointly operate various types of schools in the PRC, with such cooperation in the areas of higher education and occupational education being encouraged. Chinese-foreign cooperative schools are not permitted, however, to engage in compulsory education and military, police, political and other kinds of education that are of a special nature in the PRC. Besides, foreign educational institutions, other organizations or individuals are prohibited from unilaterally establishing schools or other educational institutions providing education mainly to Chinese citizens within the territory
of China.

Permits for Chinese-foreign cooperation in operating schools must be obtained from the relevant education authorities or the authorities that regulate labor and social welfare in China. We have not applied for a permit for Chinese-foreign Cooperation in Operating Schools at this stage since all of our private schools are operated by Oya.

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS

Our operations are not subject to any environmental regulations.

EMPLOYEES

As of August 31, 2011, we employed a total of 3,070 employees. We engage 1,192 of the employees on a full-time basis and 1,778 on a part-time basis.

We consider our relations with our employees to be good. None of our employees is represented by a labor union.

Our employees in China participate in a state pension plan organized by Chinese municipal and provincial governments. We are required to make monthly contributions to the plan for each employee at the rate of 20% of his or her average monthly salary. In addition, we are required by Chinese law to cover employees in China with various types of social insurance. We believe that we are in compliance with the relevant PRC laws.

INSURANCE

Insurance companies in China offer limited business insurance products. While business interruption insurance is available to a limited extent in China, we have determined that the risks of interruption, cost of such insurance and the difficulties associated with acquiring such insurance on commercially reasonable terms make it impractical for us to have such insurance. As a result, we do not carry business interruption insurance.

As a "smaller reporting company", we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

LAND USE RIGHT

All land in PRC is owned by the government and cannot be sold to any individual or entity. Instead, the government grants landholders a "land use right" after a purchase price for such land use right is paid to the government. The land use right allows the holder to use the land for a specific period of time and the holder enjoys all the benefits incidental to land ownership.

We have obtained land use right to the following plots of lands:

OVERVIEW

We are a leading vocational education service provider in China. We offer a wide range of educational programs and services through vocational secondary schools under "Customized Education" mode. Our business mainly consists of various vocational skills training programs, remote network education, school logistic services, human resource services and development of educational materials. We have abundant student sources that cover 25 provinces and 26 nationalities, including graduates from junior high schools, senior high schools and junior colleges, unemployed people and rural labor force.

Since China's entrance into World Trade Organization, hosting the 2008 Olympic Games, and hosting the 41st World Expo in Shanghai and Asian Olympics in Guangzhou in 2010, China has attracted international financial sources. In line with the high economic growth rate, demand for workers and technicians with specific skills has increased dramatically. To match the requirements, the Chinese government issued several regulations such as Vocational Education Law of the People's Republic of China, Regulations of the People's Republic of China on Chinese-Foreign Cooperation in Running Schools, Law of the People's Republic of China on the Promotion of Privately-run Schools and State Guidelines for medium-to-long-term Education Reform and development Plan to enhance the development of the vocational education industry. Under such preferential policies, we have experienced significant and stable growth in our business in recent years. We have established cooperative relationship with 128 enterprises. We supply our trained students to these enterprises and make various training courses available to their employees. These cooperative enterprises are mainly located in the economic centers of China, which cover, INTER ALIA, Yangtze River Delta (radiating from Shanghai to Nanjing, Hangzhou, Wuxi, Ningbo and other coastal areas), the Pearl River Delta (radiating from Shenzhen to Dongguan, Guangzhou, Huizhou, Panyu, Qingyuan, Shaoguan and other coastal areas), and many inland provinces in China. HQ Global has become increasingly renowned throughout China for its superior training to meet employer needs and its successful production of outstanding technical specialists. As of August 31, 2011, the employment rate remained 100% for the students who graduated from our vocational programs and the supply is still inadequate to meet the demand.

OPERATIONS

Mr. Guangwen He is the founder and CEO of Oya Education Technology Co., Ltd., Changsha HQ Global Vocational School and Shaoshan HQ Global Technical School. He has been engaged in vocational education and related investments since 1994. In China, "Order-oriented Education", or customized education, was initially created by Mr. Guangwen He and currently is our main operation mode. Order-oriented Education refers to the educational program that tailors vocational education and training via cooperation agreements between us and various enterprises. Under Order-oriented Education, we combine the cultivation targets with the specific needs of enterprises, curriculums with industry production process, vocational training with position requirements. We create qualified students in compliance with the requirements of the industry. At this stage, our revenue is derived from the students' tuition and is recognized proportionately within the semester.

 
22

 

We divide our teaching calendar into two semesters per year. Our first and second semesters for fiscal year 2011 lasted from September 2010 to January 2011 and from February 2011to August 2011 (including two-month summer break), respectively. Our most recent teaching semester lasted from February 1, 2011 to August 31, 2011. During this semester, we offered approximately 60 programs under 17 categories to 36,926 students.

During the winter and summer breaks, off-campus internships are provided to students. Our teachers work as the team leaders for these students who are sent to different enterprises in groups. Such on-field practice help students understand the business, the production process, management model and position requirements. As a result, students are prepared for their position without further training once they are placed with the enterprise clients.

We receive commissions from the enterprise clients for placing intern students with them. The amount of commission is based on the number of students an enterprise client receives. We also receive management fees from the intern students at a monthly fixed rate based on the duration of their internship. Such revenue is recognized upon the completion of the internship arrangement. Upon graduation, eligible students are usually hired by the same enterprise client with which they interned. In such instances, we will receive placement fees from the students and service fees from enterprise clients. Such revenue is recognized upon the completion of all the services related to the job arrangement.

"Order-oriented Education" reflects the resource sharing between schools and enterprises. It benefits our students in their job hunting endeavors after graduation. As a consequence, student recruitment witnessed a significant expansion in recent years for our eleven (11) schools that are located in Shaoshan, Changsha and Shaoyang of Hunan Province, in Lushan, Shimian, Tianquan and Yingjing of Sichuan Province, in Tianzhen of Shanxi Province, and in Zhangwu of Liaoning province, respectively. To carry out the customized training program, we established cooperative relationships with 128 enterprises as of August 31, 2011, including Fuji Xerox Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., Flextronics (Zhuhai) Co., Ltd., Dongguan Master Electronics Co., Ltd., ASUSTeK Computer (Shenzhen) Inc., Shanghai Inventec Co., Ltd., among many others.

PROSPECT

Under economic globalization, enterprises in China are expanding faster than ever and this has resulted in a serious shortage of labor force. According to the Secondary Vocational Education Innovation and Development Plan (Year 2010-2012) issued on November 27, 2010 by the Ministry of Education, in the coming three years, about 20 million skilled workers will be trained and they will become driving force for social and economic development. A study conducted by National Institute for Educational Research showed that the shortage of technical talents will range from 17.46 million to 26.65 million by the end of 2010. This provides a huge expansion space for the vocational education in the mainland of China and provides desirable opportunities for the development of our business.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES

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

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. These policies should be read in conjunction with Note 2 of the Notes to consolidated financial statements.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, Risetime, Global Education, Xiangtan Nicestar, Oya, as well as Oya's subsidiaries and VIEs. All significant inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the selection of the useful lives and residual values of property and equipment and intangible assets, provision for doubtful accounts, provision necessary for contingent liabilities, fair values, revenue recognition, and other similar charges. Management believes that the estimates utilized in preparing its consolidated financial statements are reasonable and prudent. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

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

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

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

The Company's financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, advances to vendors, other receivables, accounts payable, payroll payable, taxes payable, loans, other payable and accrued liabilities. Management has estimated that the fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying amounts due to their short-term nature. The Company uses the Level 3 method to measure fair value of its long-term bank loan. The carrying amount of the bank loan approximates the fair value based on the Company's estimate for debt with comparable risk in market.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with ASC 605 "Revenue Recognition". The Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the services have been rendered, (iii) the fees are fixed or determinable and (iv) collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

(a)
Tuition revenue received from educational programs and services is recognized proportionately according to the progress the student completes regarding educational programs in the school. Tuition paid in advance is recorded as unearned revenues.
(b)
We provide off-campus internship arrangements for students and collect service charges at fixed amount from both recruiters and students. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the internship program.
(c)
We provide other services, mainly logistic services, for our students and the revenue from such services is recognized upon completion of the service.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Accounts receivable consists of balances receivable for the charges of education services we provided and for tuition revenues. Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value consisting of the carrying amount less an allowance for uncollectible amounts. As of August 31, 2011 and 2010, total accounts receivable were $10,462,232 and $9,023,824 respectively, of which, $7,717,859 and $6,946,895 were tuition fees due from governmental organizations and associations under the impoverished student aid programs for the years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010.

The Company does periodical reviews as to whether the carrying values of accounts have become impaired. The assets are considered to be impaired if the collectability of the balances become doubtful, accordingly, the management estimates the valuation allowance for anticipated uncollectible receivable balances. When facts subsequently become available to indicate that the allowance provided requires an adjustment, then the adjustment will be recorded as a change in allowance for doubtful accounts. As of August 31, 2011 and August 31, 2010, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $75,616 and $-0-, respectively.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. The cost of an asset is comprised of its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. Expenditures incurred after the property and equipment have been put into operation, such as repairs and maintenance and overhaul costs is normally charged to the profit and loss account in the year in which it is incurred.

 
24

 

We estimates the useful lives of property and equipment using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, less any estimated residual value. Estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:

Teaching and dormitory facilities
10 - 30 years
Educational equipments and books
5 years
Office equipments and other equipments
5 years
Automobiles
5 years

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

In accordance with ASC 360, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the Company is required to review its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value.

The Company tests long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and other assets, for recoverability when events or circumstances indicate that the net carrying amount is greater than its fair value. Assets are grouped and evaluated at the lowest level for their identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. The Company considers historical performance and future estimated results in its evaluation of potential impairment and then compares the carrying amount of the asset to the future estimated cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds estimated expected undiscounted future cash flows, the Company measures the amount of impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value. The estimation of fair value is generally determined by using the asset's expected future discounted cash flows or market value. The Company estimates fair value of the assets based on certain assumptions such as budgets, internal projections, and other available information as considered necessary. There was no impairment of long-lived assets during the years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC 350, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". Intangible assets with a defined useful life are amortized over their useful lives.

INCOME TAX

The Company did not generate any taxable income outside of the PRC for the year ended August 31, 2011 and 2010 and the Company is governed by the Income Tax Law of the PRC. The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach which allows for the recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets based upon the likelihood of realization of tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future deductibility is uncertain.  In the event the PRC government determines that the Company is no longer exempt from income taxes, the Company would be subject to a statutory tax rate of 25% on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriate tax adjustments.

The Company was incorporated in the United States and, accordingly, is governed by the income tax laws of the United States. The Company incurred a net operating loss for U.S. income tax purposes. This loss carry forward, which August be available to reduce future periods' taxable income, will expire, if not utilized, in twenty years from the date the loss was incurred. The net operating loss gives rise to a deferred tax asset.  However, the management believes that the realization of the benefits arising from this loss appear to be uncertain due to Company's limited operating history and continuing losses for United States income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance at the balance sheet dates against its deferred tax asset. The management reviews this valuation allowance periodically and makes adjustments as warranted. The valuation allowance on August 31, 2011 was the same as August 31, 2010.
In accordance with ASC topic 740, interest costs related to unrecognized tax benefits are required to be calculated (if applicable) and would be classified as Interest expense, net".  Penalties if incurred would be recognized as a component of "General and administrative" expenses.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE YEARS ENDED AUGUST 31, 2011 AND 2010

Our chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is our Chief Executive Officer who reviews the financial information of separate operating segments when making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance of the group. Based on management's assessment, we have determined that we have three operating segments: Vocational Education, Order-oriented Service, and Campus services. These three operating segments are also identified as reportable segments.

·
Vocational education services are our main business currently and we provide a wide range of programs through our vocational secondary schools. Fee based revenues from vocational education services primarily consist of student tuition and fees derived from the programs we offer and collected from students based on the fee standards that are filed and approved by the related local authorities;
·
Revenues generated from Order-oriented services mainly consist of fees we collected from students and enterprises sponsors related to campus internship arrangement and job placement services;
·
Revenues generated from campus services primarily consist of canteen services and grocery sales provided to our students.

Results of operations are a general reflection of our experience in providing customized educational programs, the operation time of our schools, the reputation of our schools, the scalability of our schools and the total number of students, all of which demonstrated a growth trend in the past years and are expected to expand in the future. Our expansion can be reflected specifically in the increase of our student enrollment, the development of new customized educational programs, the cooperation with more target employers, the education appropriations from local government for running new schools. It also will be reflected in our return from the investment on new business in the future. The number of students increased from 34,477 as of August 31, 2010 to 36,926 for the year ended August 31, 2011.

(1)
Revenues from vocational education primarily consisted of tuition and fees derived from the programs we offered and collected from students based on the fee standards that are filed and approved by the related local authorities. For the year ended August 31, 2011, total tuition and miscellaneous fees increased 13% as compared to tuition and miscellaneous fees for the year ended August 31, 2010. The increase was the result of increases in our student enrollment and tuition rates as well as the expansion of our business.

 
·
Our student enrollment increased to 37,408 and 36,926 for the first and second semester of fiscal 2011 as compared to 32,238 and 34,477 for the first and second semester of fiscal 2010, representing an increase of 16% and 7%. Our order-oriented education mode, excellent job placement rate and great reputation have attracted a greater number of students to study in our schools.

 
·
Our tuition rates for fiscal year 2011 increased 11% compared with fiscal year 2010. The increase in tuition rates also led to the increase in revenue.

Cost of vocational education services mainly includes salary and welfare of teachers, depreciation of teaching facilities and educational equipment, maintenance, and other expenses. For the year ended August 31, 2011 we incurred total cost of $20,747,993, representing an increase of 12% as compared to $18,571,780 for the year ended August 31, 2010. The increase was mainly attributable to the following:

 
·
Increase in faculty and staff members in schools. The commencement of operation of the new school and the increase in student enrollment led to an increase in faculty and staff members. Besides, the Company increased the pay rates for teachers to improve their income levels. Therefore, salary and welfare for the year ended August 31, 2011 increased $708,778 as compared with the amount for the same period of the prior year.

 
·
Increase in cost of school-running cooperation. The Company has put more efforts in expanding the scale of continuing education in fiscal year 2011. For the first and second semester of fiscal 2011 the total number of students enrolled in continuing education program was 3,756 and 3,839, representing an increase of 113% and 90% when compared with the number of students for the same period of last year. This led to an increase of $1,001,817 or 54% in cost of school-running cooperation as compared with the year ended August 31, 2010.

(2)
Order-oriented services refer to off-campus internship arrangement and job placement service provided to our students. Revenues generated from order-oriented services for the year ended August 31, 2011 was $8,592,917, representing an increase of $2,480,632 or 41% when compared to $6,112,285 for the year ended August 31, 2010. The significant increase in our order-oriented education revenue is mainly attributable to the increase of fee rates we charged to our students and enterprises. The fixed management fees we charged to our students per month increased approximately 50%, and our commission fees charged to enterprise sponsors increased approximately 90% for the year ended August 31, 2011 compared with the prior year.

 
27

 

Cost of Order-oriented services mainly includes salaries of teachers and staff, travel expenses of students from our schools to the enterprise clients, and management’s travel and meeting expenses incurred with enterprise clients. Order-oriented service cost for the year ended August 31, 2011 increased $246,823 or 27% when compared to $916,250 for the year ended August 31, 2010.

(3)
Campus services primarily consist of canteen services and grocery sales. Due to the increase in the student enrollment, revenues from our campus services increased by $2,390,742 to $14,690,984, an increase of 19%, for the year ended August 31, 2011 as compared to revenues of $12,300,242 for the year ended August 31, 2011. Our management believes that going forward, in addition to the student enrollment factor, revenues from campus services will also increase along with the increase in the service categories we provide to students.

Cost of campus services primarily consist of staff salary, depreciation of property and equipment used in providing campus services, and cost of food. The prices of most categories of food and other goods rose significantly in fiscal year 2011 . To achieve a reasonable profit level, we increased the fee standards for food by 25% in February 2011. As a result, the gross profit margin of such services will increase in the future.

Operating Expenses

We do not allocate selling, general and administrative expenses incurred at corporate level to individual reporting segments as we believe our corporate department provides necessary marketing and administrative supporting function that benefits our entire operations taken as a whole.

Selling Expenses

Our selling expenses primarily consist of expenses relating to advertising, business development, salary and staff welfare, and travel expenses for our marketing personnel. Our selling expenses increased by $123,241, from $915,265 for the year ended August 31, 2010 to $1,038,506 for the year ended August 31, 2011, an increase of 13.5%. The increase was primarily attributable to increase in staff compensation, travel and advertizing expenses as a result of our business expansion.

General and Administrative Expenses

Our general and administrative expenses primarily consist of (i) compensation and benefits of the management team, administrative staff (ii) rental expenses for office space leased for administrative uses, (iii) office administration, human resources management and professional service fees and (iv) depreciation and amortization of property and equipment, including purchased software, used in our general and administrative activities. Our general and administrative expenses increased by $925,424 from $2,327,716 for the year ended August 31, 2010 to $3,253,140 for the year ended August 31, 2011, representing an increase of 39.8%. The increase was mainly attributable to the following:

(1)
The operation of the new school and an increase in the student enrollment. Tianzhen HQ Vocational School   commenced operations in September 2010 and we employed more management personnel for this new school. Meanwhile the increased student enrollment in the other schools demanded additional management personnel. This led to an increase of $168,056 in salaries and welfare, representing an increase of 20%.

(2)
The professional services fees mainly include legal fees, audit fees, secretary service fees and consulting fees. We incurred $361,059 professional services fees for the year ended August 31, 2011 primarily for our recent financing activities. However, there was only $49,327 in professional services fees incurred during the same period the prior year, which led to an increase of $311,732 of general and administrative expenses.

Other expenses

Other expenses primarily consisted of donations to Changsha Foundation for Education, a fee for the termination of office rental agreements and a loss on disposal of property and equipment. Other expenses decreased $891,776 from $1,119,803 for the year ended August 31, 2010 to $228,027 for the year ended August 31, 2011. This decrease was mainly due to the disposition of aged equipment during the year ended August 31, 2010, while there was small amount disposal of property and equipment during the year ended August 31, 2011.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our principal sources of liquidity have been generated from our operating activities, short-term financing from banks in China and from our majority stockholder.

As of August 31, 2011, short-term borrowings consisted of two loans. One loan of $470,515 (RMB 3,000,000) was borrowed from Changsha Foundation for Education. The loan was unsecured and bears interest at 5% per annum, and matures on July 28, 2012. Another loan in the amount of $243,100 (RMB1, 550,000) was borrowed from Ningxiang Rural Credit Cooperative Union. This loan bears interest at 8.96% per annum until maturity on December 28, 2011. This loan is secured by one of the Company’s buildings with a cost of $360,729. The current portion of our long-term loans consisted of two loans from Ningxiang Rural Credit Cooperative Union with total amount of $431,306.

 
28

 

As of August 31, 2011, we have two loans from Mr. Guangwen He, majority stockholder of the Company. One loan of $310,000 is unsecured, bears no interest, with term of two years and is payable on February 28, 2012. Another loan in the amount of $3,136,768 (RMB 20,000,000) is unsecured, bears no interest, with a term of three years and is payable on August 25, 2014.

We anticipate that we will be able to meet both our short-term cash needs, as well as our needs to fund operations and meet our obligations beyond the next twelve months with cash generated by operations, existing cash balances and, if necessary, borrowings under our credit facility.

Operating Activities

For the year ended August 31, 2011, the increase in net cash flows provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $3.2 million in our net income for the year ended August 31, 2011 as compared to net income for the same period in fiscal 2010. With the increase in student enrollment and business expansion, we benefit from a steady and consistent flow of revenues from different operating divisions, and with effective cost control measures, a steady increase in cash flows provided by operating activities is expected in future.

Investing Activities

For the year ended August 31, 2011, net cash flows used in investing activities were $21,715,238, representing an increase of $4,324,305 as compared with the cash flows used in investing activities of $17,390,933 for the year ended August 31, 2010. The cash used in investing activities is mainly for the advance payment to vendors for the construction of buildings, the acquisition of school facilities and land use rights for Shaoshan Vocational Secondary School, Tianzhen HQ Vocational School , Shaoyang Industrial Vocational Technical School, Sichuan Tianquan Vocational School and Sichuan Lushan Vocational School.

Financing Activities

For the year ended August 31, 2011, net cash flows provided by financing activities were $2,299,289, representing a decrease of $719,451 in net cash flows as compared with net cash provided by financing activities of $3,018,740 for the year ended August 31, 2010. Proceeds from new loans and repayment of existing loans were$936,467 and $1,682,594, respectively, during the year ended August 31, 2011.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

Our financial information is presented in US dollars. The functional currency of the Company is Renminbi ("RMB"), the currency of the PRC. Transactions at the Company which are denominated in currencies other than RMB are translated into RMB at the exchange rate quoted by the People's Bank of China prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Exchange gains and losses resulting from transactions denominated in a currency other than that RMB are included in statements of operations as exchange gains, if any. The period end exchange rate as of August 31, 2011 was 6.3760, which decreased significantly compared with the exchange rate 6.8074 as of August 31, 2010. The average exchange rate of 6.5672 for the year ended August 31, 2011 slightly decreased as compared with the exchange rate of 6.8178 for the prior year.

TAXATION

The PRC government provides various incentives to companies that engage in the development of vocational education. Such incentives include reduced tax rates, tax exemptions and other measures. According to Law of the People's Republic of China on Promotion of Privately-run Schools, implemented from September 1, 2003, and the Notice of Tax Policy for Education Activities, issued and effective on February 5, 2004, some specific enterprises, organizations and schools enjoy the same tax incentives as the schools run by the government, and could be exempt from business tax and income tax accordingly. As the operation of the Company meets the requirements of the aforementioned regulations, the Company is exempt from business tax and income tax.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

None.

SEASONALITY AND TRENDS

Our net revenues and operating results normally fluctuate as a result of seasonal variations in our business, principally due to a flexible educational calendar year. Our revenue historically fluctuated quarterly and has generally been the highest in the first quarter of our fiscal year due to the start of new school semesters in our major markets. Furthermore, holidays, especially the Chinese New Year, have generally delayed the recognition of the revenue in the relevant quarters ended February and August. Our fixed expenses such as depreciation and rental, however, do not vary significantly over the course of the year with changes in our student population and net revenues. We expect quarterly fluctuations in operating results to continue as a result of our flexible educational calendar year and arrangement of students' vacation.

We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings, investigations or claim which in the opinion of our management is likely to have a material adverse effect on the business financial condition or result of operations. We have not recorded any legal contingencies as of August 31, 2011.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
HQ Global Education Inc.
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of HQ Global Education Inc.(The Company) as of August 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010. The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its 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 also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of August 31, 2011 and 2010 and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

HQ GLOBAL EDUCATION INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

HQ Global Education Inc. ("the Company") provides a wide range of educational programs and services through vocational schools, consisting primarily of customized education programs for various vocational skills and vocational training services to a varied student population throughout People's Republic of China.

The Company formerly known as Green Star Mining Corp., was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on January 22, 2008. On February 8, 2010, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Risetime Group Limited ("Risetime"), a BVI business company incorporated in British Virgin Islands on December 17, 2007. Risetime owns 100% of the equity of Xiangtan Nicestar Business Administration Co., Ltd. ("Xiangtan Nicestar") through its 100% subsidiary, Global Education International Ltd. ("GEI"), an investment holding company incorporated in Hong Kong on November 15, 2007. Xiangtan Nicestar is a wholly foreign-owned enterprise incorporated in Xiangtan City, Hunan Province, People's Republic of China ("PRC") on September 30, 2009 and is primarily engaged in providing business administration, planning and consulting services. Substantially all Risetime and GEI's operations are conducted in China through Xiangtan Nicestar, and through contractual arrangements with Xiangtan Nicestar's consolidated affiliated entities in China, including Hunan Oya Education Technology Co., Ltd. ("Oya") and Oya's subsidiaries and variable interest entities ("VIEs"). Oya is a company incorporated in Changsha City, Hunan Province, PRC on November 20, 2008 is primarily engaged in providing vocational education service and vocational skills training service.

In connection with the acquisition, the Company issued 20,500,000 shares of common stock to the shareholder of Risetime in exchange for all of the capital stock of Risetime (the "Share Exchange" or "Merger"). Upon the completion of the Merger, the shareholders of Risetime own 62.12% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company and consequently control the business and operation of the Company.

The acquisition was accounted for as a reverse acquisition under the purchase method of accounting since there was a change of control. Accordingly, Risetime and its subsidiaries are treated as the continuing entity for accounting purposes.

In March 2010, Green Star Mining Corp. changed its name to HQ Global Education Inc. to more effectively reflect the Company's business and communicate the Company's brand identity to customers.

On July 28, 2009, Oya entered into certain exclusive agreements with Changsha Huanqiu Vocational Secondary School ("Changsha Huanqiu") and Shaoshan Huanqiu Vocational Technical Secondary School ("Shaoshan Huanqiu") and their shareholders. Pursuant to these agreements, Oya provides exclusive consulting and other general business operation services to Changsha Huanqiu and Shaoshan Huanqiu in exchange for substantially all net income of Changsha Huanqiu and Shaoshan Huanqiu. Oya has the right to appoint all senior management personnel of Changsha Huanqiu and Shaoshan Huanqiu.

On November 28, 2009, Xiangtan Nicestar entered into certain exclusive agreements with Oya and its shareholders. Pursuant to these agreements, Xiangtan Nicestar provides exclusive consulting and other general business operation services to Oya in exchange for all net income of Oya. All voting rights of Oya are assigned to Xiangtan Nicestar and Xiangtan Nicestar has the right to appoint all directors and senior management personnel of Oya. In addition, Oya's shareholders have pledged their equity interest in Oya to Xiangtan Nicestar as collateral for the fees for consulting and other services due to Xiangtan Nicestar.

As a result of these contractual arrangements, which obligates Oya to absorb a majority of the risk of loss from Changsha Huanqiu and Shaoshan Huanqiu's activities and enable Oya to receive a majority of its expected residual returns, Oya accounts for Changsha Huanqiu and Shaoshan Huanqiu as variable interest entities under ASC 810-10,"Consolidation". Accordingly, Oya has included the accounts of Changsha Huanqiu and Shaoshan Huanqiu in its consolidated financial statements. For the same reason, Xiangtan Nicestar accounts for Oya as a VIE and includes Oya's accounts in its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, Risetime, GEI, Xiangtan Nicestar, Oya, as well as Oya's subsidiaries and VIEs. All significant inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

The Company has 12 VIEs in total including Oya. Oya operates four private secondary vocational schools (Changsha Huanqiu, Shaoshan Huanqiu, Hunan New HQ Technical School and Tianzhen Huanqiu Technical Secondary School) and two public secondary vocational school (Shaoshan Vocational School, Liaoning Zhangwu Secondary Vocational School) in China. Through Changsha Huanqiu, the Company operates five public secondary vocational schools, Yingjing Vocational School, Tianquan Vocational School, Shimian Vocational School, Lushan Vocational School and Shaoyang Vocational School.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes, and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the selection of the useful lives and residual values of property and equipment and intangible assets, provision for doubtful accounts, provision necessary for contingent liabilities, fair values and revenue recognition. Management believes that the estimates utilized in preparing its consolidated financial statements are reasonable and prudent. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains uninsured cash with various banks in the PRC. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and management believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in bank accounts.

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Accounts receivable consists of balances receivable for the charges of education services provided and for tuition revenues. Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value consisting of the carrying amount less an allowance for uncollectible amounts. As of August 31, 2011 and 2010, total accounts receivable were $10,462,232 and $9,023,824 respectively, of which, $7,717,859  and $6,946,895 were tuition fees due from governmental organizations and associations under the impoverished student aid programs for the years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010.

According to the Company's policy, accounts receivable over 90 days are considered overdue. The Company does periodical reviews as to whether the carrying values of accounts have become impaired. The assets are considered to be impaired if the collectability of the balances become doubtful, accordingly, the management estimates the valuation allowance for anticipated uncollectible receivable balances. When facts subsequently become available to indicate that the allowance provided requires an adjustment, then the adjustment will be recorded as a change in allowance for doubtful accounts. As of August 31, 2011 and August 31, 2010, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $75,616 and $-0-, respectively.

INVENTORY

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and market value. Cost is calculated using the weighted average method. The Company estimates the write-down of excessive, slow moving and obsolete inventories as well as inventory whose carrying value is in excess of net realizable value.

ADVANCES TO VENDORS

Advances to vendors consist of balances paid for the construction of buildings and facilities, acquisition of property, equipment and materials. Advances to vendors are reviewed periodically to determine whether their carrying value has become impaired. The Company considers the assets to be impaired if facts and circumstances indicate that the collectability of the services and materials become doubtful. The Company has determined that no reserve is necessary for the years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses.

 
F-7

 

The cost of an asset is comprised of its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. Expenditures incurred after the property and equipment have been put into operation, such as repairs and maintenance and overhaul costs, is normally charged to the profit and loss account in the year in which it is incurred.

In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that the expenditure has resulted in an increase in the future economic benefit expected to be obtained from the use of the asset beyond its originally assessed standard of performances, the expenditure is capitalized as an additional cost of the asset.

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, less any estimated residual value. Estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:

Teaching and dormitory facilities
10 - 30 years
Educational equipments and books
5 years
Office equipments and other equipments
5 years
Automobiles
5 years

Any gain or loss on disposal or retirement of property and equipment represents the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, and is recognized in the statements of income in the period it occurred.

CONSTRUCTION-IN-PROGRESS

The Company constructs certain properties and equipments to be used in its operations. In addition in capitalizing costs under the construction contracts, external costs directly related to the construction of such assets, including equipment installation and shipping costs, are also capitalized. Depreciation expense on is recorded at the time assets are placed in service.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of ASC 350, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". Intangible assets with defined useful lives are amortized over their useful lives.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

In accordance with ASC 360, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the Company is required to review its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value.

The Company tests long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and other assets, for recoverability when events or circumstances indicate that the net carrying amount is greater than its fair value. Assets are grouped and evaluated at the lowest level for their identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. The Company considers historical performance and future estimated results in its evaluation of potential impairment and then compares the carrying amount of the asset to the future estimated cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds estimated expected undiscounted future cash flows, the Company measures the amount of impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value. The estimation of fair value is generally determined by using the asset's expected future discounted cash flows or market value. The Company estimates fair value of the assets based on certain assumptions such as budgets, internal projections, and other available information as considered necessary. There was no impairment of long-lived assets during the years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010.

UNEARNED REVENUES

Unearned revenues represent amounts received from students for tuition and service fee relating to the outside-school practice service. The Company recognizes these funds as a current liability until the revenue can be recognized. The balance of unearned revenues is not refundable.
 
 
F-8

 
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes revenues in accordance ASC 605 "Revenue Recognition when the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the services have been rendered, (iii) the fees are fixed or determinable and (iv) collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
 
 
(a)
Tuition revenue received for educational programs and services is recognized proportionately according to the progress the students completing the educational programs in the school. Tuition paid in advance is recorded as unearned revenues.
 
(b)
The Company provides off-campus internship programs for students. The Company has arrangements with certain regional corporations in which these entities are the sponsors for off-campus internship programs which last two to three months. The Company collects a fixed amount of fees from both the internship sponsor and the student after the student is admitted into the programs. Revenue is recognized upon completion of the internship program.
 
(c)
The Company provides other services mainly cafeteria and laundry services for students and the revenue from such services is recognized upon completion of the service.

COST OF REVENUE

Fee based cost of revenues for educational programs and services primarily consists of teaching fees and performance-based teaching fees paid to our teachers, depreciation and amortization of property and equipment used in the provision of educational services, and rental payments for one of our schools, as well as costs of course materials and other expenses.

Service based cost of revenues primarily consists of salaries of related employees, cost of materials and water and electricity fees used by canteens, depreciation and amortization of property and equipment used by related departments, and other expenses.

Above mentioned cost is expensed as incurred.

INCOME TAXES

The Company did not generate any taxable income outside of the PRC for the years ended August 31, 2011 and 2010 and the Company is governed by the Income Tax Law of the PRC. The Company accounts for income taxes using an asset and liability approach which allows for the recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets based upon the likelihood of realization of tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will either expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or that future deductibility is uncertain.

The Company records a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, if any, based on its estimates of its future taxable income as well as its tax planning strategies when it is more likely than not that a portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company had no deferred tax items as of August 31, 2011 and 2010.

As of August 31, 2011, the Company has a net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $600 available to offset against U.S taxable income in the future. Net operating loss carry forwards will expire for federal tax purposes in twenty years from the date the loss was incurred. The Company's federal income tax returns for the years 2010 and 2011 are subject to examination by US tax authorities.

In accordance with ASC topic 740, interest costs related to unrecognized tax benefits are required to be calculated (if applicable) and would be classified as Interest expense, net".  Penalties if incurred would be recognized as a component of "General and administrative" expenses.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

ASC 220, "Comprehensive Income" requires disclosure of all components of comprehensive income and loss on an annual and interim basis. Comprehensive income and loss is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. Accumulated other comprehensive income represent income arose from the changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

 
F-9

 

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

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

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

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

The Company's financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, advances to vendors, other receivables, accounts payable, payroll payable, taxes payable, loans, other payable and accrued liabilities. Management has estimated that the fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying amounts due to their short-term nature. The Company uses the Level 3 method to measure fair value of its long-term bank loan. The carrying amount of the bank loan approximates the fair value based on the Company's estimate for debt with comparable risk in market.

EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share is measured as net income divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS. The Company does not have any potential common shares outstanding as of August 31, 2011 and 2010.

In February 2010, the Company entered into a share exchange transaction which has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition under the purchase method of accounting since there has been a change of control. The Company computes the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, which states that in calculating the weighted average shares when a reverse acquisition takes place in the middle of the year, the number of common shares outstanding from the beginning of that period to the acquisition date shall be computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares of the legal acquiree (the accounting acquirer) outstanding during the period multiplied by the exchange ratio established in the merger agreement. The number of common shares outstanding from the acquisition date to the end of that period shall be the actual number of common shares of the legal acquirer (the accounting acquiree) outstanding during that period.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

The Company's consolidated financial statements are presented in US dollars. In accordance with ASC 830, "Foreign Currency Matters", an entity's functional currency is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates; normally, that is the currency of the environment in which an entity primarily generates and expends cash. Since substantially all operations of the Company are conducted in the PRC, the functional currency of the Company is Renminbi ("RMB"), the currency of the PRC. Transactions at the Company which are denominated in currencies other than RMB are translated into RMB at the exchange rate quoted by the People's Bank of China prevailing at the dates of the transactions. The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been translated into U.S. dollars. The financial statements are first prepared in RMB and then are translated into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenue and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. Due to the fact that cash flows are translated based on the average translation rate, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet. The effects of foreign currency translation adjustments are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders' equity.

The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US dollars at the rates used in translation.

ADVERTISING

NOTE 11. TAXES

(A) CORPORATION INCOME TAX ("CIT") AND BUSINESS TAX

The Company is governed by the Income Tax Law of the People's Republic of China ("PRC") concerning the private-run enterprises, which are generally subject to tax at a statutory rate of 25% on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriate tax adjustments. The applicable business tax rate for educational service is currently 5%.

The PRC government also provides various incentives to companies that engage in the development of vocational education. Such incentives include reduced tax rates, tax exemptions and other measures. According to Law of the PRC on Promotion of Privately-run Schools, implemented from September 1, 2003, and the Notice of Tax Policy for Education Activities, issued and became effective on February 5, 2004, some specific enterprises, organizations and schools could enjoy the same tax incentives as the schools run by the government, and could be exempt from business tax and income tax accordingly. As long as the operation of the Company meets the requirements of the regulations aforementioned, the Company is therefore exempt from business tax and income tax.

Although the possibility exists for reinterpretation of the application of the tax regulations by higher tax authorities in the PRC, potentially overturning the decision made by the local tax authority, the Company has not experienced any reevaluation of the income taxes for prior years.
 
The Company was incorporated in the United States and, accordingly, is governed by the income tax laws of the United States. The Company incurred a net operating loss for U.S. income tax purposes. This loss carry forward, which may be available to reduce future periods' taxable income, will expire, if not utilized, in twenty years from the date the loss was incurred. The net operating loss gives rise to a deferred tax asset.  However, the management believes that the realization of the benefits arising from this loss appear to be uncertain due to Company's limited operating history and continuing losses for United States income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance at the balance sheet dates against its deferred tax asset. The management reviews this valuation allowance periodically and makes adjustments as warranted. The valuation allowance increased $102 for both years ended August, 31, 2011 and 2010.

As of August 31, 2011 and 2010, the deferred tax assets and the related valuation allowance were as follows:

   
As of
   
As of

Valuation allowance
    (204 )     (102 )
                 
Net deferred tax assets
  $     $  

The difference between the statutory tax rate of 34% and the effective tax rate of 0% is due to the foreign income not recognized in the Unites States and the tax incentives the Company’s subsidiaries receive in the PRC.

(B) PAYROLL TAX PAYABLE

The Company's payroll tax payable represents the unremitted individual income tax withheld on behalf of the employees. As of August 31, 2011 and 2010, the tax payable amounted to $3,793 and $3,232, respectively.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Evaluation Date”). The evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures included a review of our processes and the effect on the information generated for use in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the course of this evaluation, we sought to identify any material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures and to confirm that any necessary corrective action, including process improvements, was taken. The purpose of this evaluation is to determine if, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were operating effectively such that the information, required to be disclosed in our reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (i) was recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) was accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Management of the Company, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of the Evaluation Date.  In making this evaluation, management used the criteria set forth in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”).  Based on this evaluation, management concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, we had material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. Our disclosure controls and procedures were not operating effectively.

 
32

 

As defined by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 5, a material weakness is a deficiency or a combination of deficiencies, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Management’s conclusion was based on the fact that the Company lacks sufficient personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in the application of U.S. GAAP standards. The current accounting team is professional and experienced in accounting requirements and procedures generally accepted in the PRC, but is less experienced in applying the U.S. GAAP standard and reporting requirements. The staff needs additional training to become experienced in U.S. GAAP. In addition, due to the Company’s size, there is certain degree of lack of segregation of duties between functions. Segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the reportable conditions and other areas of our internal control over financial reporting identified by us as needing improvement have not resulted in a material restatement of our financial statements, nor are we aware of any instance where such reportable conditions or other identified areas of deficiency have resulted in a material misstatement or omission in any report we have filed with or submitted to the SEC.

In order to remediate such weaknesses, the Company has taken the following remediation measures:

·     To improve its financial system, management of the Company started to look for more experienced accounting professional who are familiar with US GAAP Standard and reporting requirements.

·     To the extent practicable in the segregation of duties, the Company is in the process of designing procedures to enhance the independent performance by separate individuals of different tasks, such as in the custody of assets and the recording of transactions.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In response to the deficiencies identified, we have taken steps to strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. In particular, we have evaluated and continue to evaluate our personnel needs within our corporate accounting department and intend to add permanent personnel resources to support internal control over financing reporting.     We will begin to implement an initiative and training in China to ensure the importance of internal controls and compliance with established policies and procedures are fully understood throughout the organization and will provide additional U.S. GAAP training to all employees involved with the performance of or compliance with those procedures and policies. We also initiated the process of completing a review and revision of the documentation of the Company’s internal control procedures and policies.

Management will continue to monitor the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures on an ongoing basis and will take further action, as appropriate, to address the control deficiencies described herein.

The remedial measures being undertaken may not be fully effectuated or may be insufficient to address the significant deficiencies we identified, and there can be no assurance that significant deficiencies or material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting will not be identified or occur in the future. If additional significant deficiencies (or if material weaknesses) in our internal controls are discovered or occur in the future, among other similar or related effects: (i) the Company may fail to meet future reporting obligations on a timely basis, (ii) the Company’s consolidated financial statements may contain material misstatements and (iii) the Company’s business and operating results may be harmed.

Our board of directors is charged with reviewing and approving all potential related party transactions. All such related party transactions must then be reported under applicable SEC rules. We have not adopted other procedures for review, or standards for approval, of such transactions, but instead review them on a case-by-case basis.

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Our securities are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board which does not have any director independence requirements. At the moment, half of our directors are independent directors. Our Board determines whether a director is independent through a broad consideration of facts and circumstances, including an assessment of the materiality of any relation between us. Our board believes that our independent directors satisfy the criteria for independence.

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANTS FEES AND SERVICES

The aggregate fees billed for the most recently completed fiscal year ended August 31, 2010 and for fiscal year ended August 31, 2011 for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for the audit of our annual financial statements and review of the financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for these fiscal periods were as follows:

"Audit Fees" consisted of the aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual financial statements and the reviews of the financial statements included in our Forms 10-Q and for any other services that were normally provided in connection with our statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

"Audit Related Fees" consisted of the aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered for assurance and related services that were reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and were not otherwise included in Audit Fees.

"Tax Fees" consisted of the aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning. Included in such Tax Fees were fees for preparation of our tax returns and consultancy and advice on other tax planning matters.

"All Other Fees" consisted of the aggregate fees billed for products and services provided and not otherwise included in Audit Fees, Audit Related Fees or Tax Fees.

Our board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the board of directors either before or after the respective services were rendered.

Our board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by our independent auditors and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining our independent auditors' independence.
