Results of Operations
Comparison of the Three Months Ended December 31, 1996
to the Three Months Ended December 31, 1995
-------------------------------------------
Total revenues decreased 13.7% to $11.2 million during the third quarter of 1996
over total revenue of $13 million recorded during the third quarter of 1995. The
decrease in revenue can mainly be accounted for by the fact that one turnkey
project which was expected to be completed in December 1996 was delayed and was
booked in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997.
Cost of revenues decreased by 19.38% during the second quarter of 1996 due to
the decrease in sales.
During December 1996, the other receivable of U.S. $14,487,179 listed on the
March 31, 1997 balance sheet (and included in other assets on the March 31, 1996
balance sheet included in this Form 10-Q) was satisfied by the acquisition of
Cathay Mercantile (Overseas) Limited, which indirectly owns certain land use
rights in the People's Republic of China ("PRC"). As of the date hereof, it is
not certain whether such land use rights could be successfully utilized, and if
not, losses could be incurred by the Company. Property and equipment on the
December 31, 1996 balance sheet has been increased in order to reflect this
transaction.
Selling and administrative expenses increased by 98% from the corresponding
prior quarter primarily as a result of the retention by the Company of Mega
Capital Limited, a registered investment advisor located in Hong Kong. The
contract with Mega Capital Limited is for two years commencing in August 1996 at
a total fee of HK $6,000,000. Mega Capital Limited was retained by the Company
in order to advise the Company in connection with possible business acquisitions
in the PRC.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents increased from $0.96 million at March 31, 1996 to
$20.5 million at December 31, 1996. Management anticipates that cash generated
from operations combined with current working capital and available credit lines
will provide sufficient liquidity to meet ordinary capital requirements for the
foreseeable future.
