principles for interim financial information and with the instructions
to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three months and nine months
period ended September 30, 2001, are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2001.
The balance sheet at December 31, 2000 has been derived from the

the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. For further information,

2. ACQUISITION AND DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
On April 30, 2001, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Billion Luck,
through its nominees, acquired a 39% equity interest in its 61%-owned
subsidiary, HARC, from the Farming Bureau, for a total consideration of
RMB129,405 (US$15,629) (the "Purchase Consideration") comprised of
cash, amount due from Farming Bureau and the Company's interest in
certain assets described below. Following the acquisition, HARC became
an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Concurrent with the
acquisition, HARC entered into several agreements with the Farming
Bureau to dispose of certain assets, including 24,877,008 shares of
Hainan Sundiro Motorcycle Co. Ltd., a 13% equity interest in Xilian
Timber Mill and a 58% equity interest in Hainan Weilin Timber Limited
Liability Company ("Hainan Weilin"), valued in the aggregate at
RMB78,800 (US$9,517). The Company ceased timber processing operations
following disposition of its 58% interest in Hainan Weilin. The Company
recognized a loss of RMB16,001 (US$1,932) from the above acquisition
and disposition of assets.
Net sales of the timber processing operations included in discontinued
operations totaled RMB1,282 (US$155) and nil for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000 and 2001, respectively. Loss from discontinued
operations of timber processing operations of RMB750 (US$91) and RMB41
(US$5) for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 2001,
respectively, is reported without set-off of any income tax expenses.

The natural rubber segment's assets decreased by more than RMB57,089 at
September 30, 2001 as compared to the amount at December 31, 2000
because the natural rubber segment exchanged certain of its assets as
part of the consideration for the additional 39% interest in HARC
acquired by the Company in the second quarter of 2001 (see Note 2).
10
The processed timber segment which was reported in the Company's annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000 was
discontinued in the second quarter of 2001, as a result of the disposal
of Hainan Weilin as detailed in Note 2.
9. IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business
Combinations, and No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under the
new rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite
lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual
impairment tests in accordance with the Statements. Other intangible
assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives.
The Company will apply the new rules on accounting for goodwill and
other intangible assets beginning in the first quarter of 2002.
Application of the nonamortization provisions of the Statement is
expected to result in an increase in net income of RMB3.4 million
(RMB4.10 per share) per year. During 2002, the Company will perform the
first of the required impairment tests of goodwill and indefinite lived
intangible assets as of January 1, 2002 and has not yet determined what
the effect of these tests will have on the earnings and financial
position of the Company.

and 21.5%, respectively. The increase in net sales and gross profit margin were
due to increased sales volume resulting from the successful marketing efforts of
the Company and its ability to source less expensive and better quality products
from suppliers.
Notwithstanding the cessation of natural rubber operations in early
2000, the Company engages in trading of natural rubber occasionally, depending
on market conditions. The Company had sales of RMB4.1 million (US$495,000) and
RMB890,000 (US$107,000) for the nine months and three months ended September 30,
2001, respectively, with gross loss of RMB175,000 (US$21,000) and RMB179,000
(US$22,000) for the nine months and three months ended September 30, 2001,
respectively. As a result of a decline in the natural rubber market in the
second half of 2001, the Company sold all of its rubber inventories in the third
quarter of 2001.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
The selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months
ended September 30, 2001 decreased by RMB363,000 (US$44,000) or 2.9% compared to
that for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The decrease resulted from a
bad debt recovery in the amount of RMB629,000 (US$76,000) in the nine months
ended September 30, 2001. The decrease is offset by increases in legal,
professional and travel expenses incurred in relation to the exploration of
investment opportunities during 2001.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter of
2001 decreased by 9.1% to RMB4.0 million (US$484,000) from RMB4.4 million
(US$532,000) for the third quarter of 2000. The decrease was mainly due to a bad
debt recovery of RMB332,000 (US$40,000) in the third quarter of 2001.
AMORTIZATION
Expenses for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2000
represented amortization of website technology, acquired on June 30, 2000, which
is being recorded on the straight-line basis over two years. Expenses for the
three months and nine months ended September 30, 2001 represented amortization
of the website technology.
FINANCIAL INCOME, NET
Net financial income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was
RMB619,000 (US$75,000), which was comprised of interest income of RMB4.8 million
(US$580,000) and exchange loss of RMB4.2 million (US$507,000). Net financial
income for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 was RMB856,000 (US$103,000),
which was comprised of interest income of RMB1.2 million (US$145,000) and
interest expenses of RMB300,000 (US$36,000). The decrease in financial income
was mainly attributable to the interest received in the second quarter of 2000
on a RMB45.0 million (US$5.4 million) short-term loan to an unaffiliated third
party, which amounted to RMB4.2 million (US$507,000). The exchange loss incurred
in 2000 arose from the conversion of RMB to Hong Kong dollars. The financial
expenses incurred in the first half of 2001 arose from a margin loan which was
repaid in the first quarter of 2001.
Net financial expenses for the third quarter of 2000 was RMB3.1 million
(US$374,000), which was comprised of interest income of RMB227,000 (US$27,000)
and exchange loss of RMB3.3 million (US$398,000). Net financial income for the
third quarter of 2001 was RMB308,000 (US$37,000). The increase in financial
income was mainly attributable to the interest received in the third quarter of
2001 on RMB20 million (US$2.4 million) short-term loans to three unaffiliated
third parties.
OTHER INCOME/(EXPENSES), NET
Other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 represented a
net gain on trading of marketable securities. Other expenses for the nine months
ended September 30, 2001 mainly represented loss on acquisition and disposition
of assets of RMB16.0 million (US$1.9 million) as stated in note 2, a net gain on
trading of marketable securities of RMB6.3 million (US$760,000) and a premium
earned on written call options of RMB3.2 million (US$386,000).
13
Other expenses for the third quarter of 2000 and 2001 represented a net
loss on trading of marketable securities.
INCOME TAXES
It is management's intention to reinvest all the income attributable to
the Company earned by its operations outside the US. Accordingly, no US federal
and state income taxes have been provided in these consolidated financial
statements.
Income taxes consist of PRC federal income tax computed at 15% on
assessable income for foreign investment enterprises operating in Hainan.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Discontinued operations represent the operating loss from the
operations of the discontinued processed timber business resulting from the
exchange of the Company's 58% interest in Hainan Weilin Timber Limited Liability
Company as partial consideration for the minority interest of HARC.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's primary liquidity needs are to fund inventories, trade
receivables and operating expenses, and to expand business operations. The
Company has financed its working capital requirements primarily through
internally generated cash.
The Company had a working capital surplus of approximately RMB25.4
million (US$3.1 million) as of September 30, 2001, compared to that of
approximately RMB79.6 million (US$9.6 million) as of December 31, 2000. The
decrease was mainly attributable to the Company paying approximately RMB36
million (US$4.3 million) cash and foregoing approximately RMB14 million (US$1.7
million) due from the Farming Bureau as partial consideration for the minority
interest of HARC. Net cash used by operating activities for the nine months
ended September 30, 2001 was approximately RMB29.9 million (US$3.6 million), as
compared to net cash provided by operating activities of RMB46.9 million (US$5.7
million) for the corresponding period in 2000. Net cash inflows/outflows from
the Company's operating activities are attributable to the Company's net loss
and changes in operating assets and liabilities. Net cash provided by investing
activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 was mainly attributable
to the cash proceeds from the disposal of marketable securities, net of the cash
consideration paid for the minority interest of HARC as stated above, and net of
loans made to third parties. Net cash provided by financing activities for the
nine months ended September 30, 2001 was attributable to the RMB3 million
(US$0.4 million) advance of short term loan from a third party.
Except as disclosed above, there has been no other significant change
in financial condition and liquidity since the fiscal year ended December 31,
2000. The Company believes that internally generated funds will be sufficient to
satisfy its anticipated working capital needs for at least the next twelve
months.
MARKET RISK AND RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES
All of the Company's sales and purchases are made domestically and are
denominated in RMB. Accordingly, the Company and its subsidiaries do not have
material market risk with respect to currency fluctuation. As the reporting
currency of the Company's consolidated financial statements is also RMB, there
is no significant translation difference arising on consolidation. However, the
Company may suffer exchange loss when it converts RMB to other currencies, such
as Hong Kong Dollar or United States Dollar.
14
The Company's interest income is most sensitive to changes in the
general level of RMB interest rates. In this regard, changes in RMB interest
rates affect the interest earned on the Company's cash equivalents. As at
September 30, 2001, the Company's cash equivalents are mainly RMB, Hong Kong
Dollar and United States Dollar deposits with financial institutions, bearing
market interest rates without fixed term.
As at September 30, 2001, the Company had short-term investments in
marketable securities in the Hong Kong and United States stock markets with a
total market value of RMB3,239,000 (US$391,000). These investments expose the
Company to market risks that may cause the future value of these investments to
be lower than the original cost of such investments.
