PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

This summary highlights selected information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. While this summary highlights what we consider to be the most important information about us, you should carefully read this prospectus and the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part in their entirety before investing in our common stock, especially the risks of investing in our common stock, which we discuss later in “Risk Factors,” and our financial statements and related notes beginning on page F-1. Unless the context requires otherwise, the words “we,” “us” and “our” refer to PacificNet Inc.
About PacificNet Inc.

We were incorporated in the state of Delaware in 1987. We are a leading provider of customer relationship management (CRM) and telecom services, e-commerce and gaming technology in China. Our business consists of three groups, all of which operate within the outsourcing and telecommunications industries in Asia, primarily greater China, which includes the People's Republic of China (PRC), or mainland China, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), Macau Special Administrative Region, and Taiwan, and one group that focuses on primarily administrative and corporate related matters. Through our subsidiaries we provide outsourcing services, telecom (VAS) services, and products (telecom & gaming) services. Our business process outsourcing (BPO) services include call centers providing CRM and telemarketing services, and our information technology outsourcing (ITO) includes software programming and development. We are value-added resellers and providers of telecom VAS, which comprises interactive voice response (IVR) systems, call center management systems, and VOIP, as well as mobile phone VAS, such as short messaging services (SMS) and multimedia messaging services (MMS). In 2004, we commenced our communication products distribution service, through wholesale and, to a lesser extent, retail sale and distribution of mobile phones, software and hardware, mobile accessories, and calling cards in Hong Kong and China. In 2005, we invested in Take1Technologies (formerly known as Cheer Era), a company that designs, manufactures, and distributes multimedia interactive self-service kiosks, bingo and gaming machines for the casino and slot machine operators Europe and Asia.

In August 2006, PacificNet Games Limited (PacGames) completed the acquisition of 100% of Able Entertainment Technology Ltd, a leading provider of Asian multi-player electronic gaming machines, gaming technology solutions and gaming related maintenance, IT and distribution services for the leading hotel, casino and slot hall operators based in Macau, China and other Asian gaming markets. Macau is expected to surpass Las Vegas in total revenues by 2006. Currently, table games make up the bulk of Macau casino revenues, which is in sharp contrast to other areas such as Las Vegas. With this acquisition, PacGames is a leading developer of electronic versions of these popular table games which are less expensive to run resulting in higher casino profits with great appeal to the mass market players. Further, the growing market in Macau is for Asian table games such as Baccarat, Roulette, Fan Tan, Fish-Prawn-Crab and Sic-Bo Cussec as these games have wider acceptance in the Asian market than Western games such as poker or slots. The development, manufacturing, maintenance, and service of electronic Asian table games are underserved areas which are predicted to grow considerably as Macau's gaming market matures. PacGames products include multi-play electronic gaming machines such as Baccarat, Fish-Prawn-Crab, Sib-Bo Cussec, Roulette, and Video Lottery Terminals (VLT) such as Keno and Bingo, as well as other traditional slot machines. We intend to continue to grow our business by acquiring and managing growing technology and network communications businesses with established products and customers in Asia.  

Our BPO services generate revenue from call center services, call center management software sales, and training and consulting. We invoice our call center clients monthly at per seat monthly rates, a base price plus commission per call, or a per hour charge rate, depending on the client's preference. Our call center software clients pay per license, for which there is usually a one-time charge on sale of the software and annual maintenance fees for service. We charge per project for our consulting and training services and for our telecom VAS, which are invoiced throughout the project. Our telecom VAS often includes a post-sale service contract for systems integration and consulting services for which we bill separately. Our communication products such as calling cards, kiosks and cell phones are sold cash-on-delivery. Our gaming center operations generate revenue through the sale of gaming machines to casinos, or through resellers who sell to casinos.

Private Placement of Convertible Debentures and Warrants

On March 13, 2006, we completed a private placement in which we sold $8,000,000 in convertible debentures and issued warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 400,000 shares of common stock. The debentures are convertible at any time into shares of our common stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $10.00 per share, subject to adjustments for certain dilutive events. The debentures are due March 13, 2009. The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years at an exercise price of $12.20 per share. At the closing of the private placement, we prepaid the first year’s interest on debentures equal to 5% of the aggregate principal amount of debentures. We will pay interest in cash or shares, provided that certain conditions are met, at the rate of 6% for the second year the debentures are outstanding and then 7% for the third. Beginning January 1, 2007, we are obligated to redeem up to $320,000 every month, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties. We also have the option to prepay the debentures at any time, provided that certain conditions have been met, after the 12 month anniversary of the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is part, some or all of the outstanding debentures for cash in an amount equal to 120% of the principal amount outstanding, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties outstanding. At any time after the six month anniversary of the effective date, we may force the holders to convert up to 50% of the then outstanding principal amount of the debentures, subject to certain trading conditions being met. If any event of default occurs under the debentures or other related documents, the holders may elect to accelerate the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the debenture, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties, which shall become immediately due and payable.
 
Under the terms of the registration rights agreement, dated February 28, 2006, entered into among the Company and the holders, we are obligated to register for resale 150% of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the debentures and the warrants, and interest on the convertible debentures. We are currently in default under the private placement transaction documents for the untimely filing of the registration statement, of which this prospectus is part, and for the failure to have the registration statement declared effective prior to the effectiveness date set forth in the registration rights agreement. As of November 1, 2006, we could be liable for liquidated damages of approximately $800,000 as a result of the foregoing. As of the date of this prospectus, we have paid $35,000 in liquidated damages to one holder. As of the date of this prospectus the holders have not elected to accelerate the payment of the outstanding principal and interest owing on the debenture.

Also in connection with the private placement, Messrs. Tony Tong, Victor Tong and Shaojian Wang and Sino Mart Management Ltd., and its sole officer and director, Mr. Cho Sam Tong, entered into lock-up agreements restricting the disposition of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by them until the earlier of 30 days from the effective date of the registration statement, or February 28, 2008.

Messrs. Tony and Victor Tong, Wang and Sino Mart Management Ltd. each executed letter agreements to the holders of the convertible debentures and warrants, in which they each agreed to vote all of the shares of the Company over which they have voting control in favor of any resolutions presented to the stockholders of the Company to approve the issuance, in the aggregate, of more than 19.999% of the number of shares of common stock of the Company outstanding on the closing date of the private placement. They executed each letter agreement in consideration of, and as a condition to the consummation of the private placement.

C.E. Unterberg, Towbin L.L.C. acted as Placement Agent and received a cash fee in the amount of $449,500 and a warrant to purchase up to 16,000 shares. Maxim Group also acted as Placement Agent and received a cash fee in the amount of $50,000.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities involves a great deal of risk. Careful consideration should be made of the following factors as well as other information included in this prospectus before deciding to purchase our common stock. You should pay particular attention to the fact that we conduct a majority of our operations in China and are governed by a legal and regulatory environment that in some respects differs significantly from the environment that may prevail in other countries. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be affected materially and adversely by any or all of these risks.

THE FOLLOWING MATTERS MAY HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY, RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OR PROSPECTS, FINANCIAL OR OTHERWISE. REFERENCE TO THIS CAUTIONARY STATEMENT IN THE CONTEXT OF A FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT OR STATEMENTS SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A STATEMENT THAT ANY ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING FACTORS MAY CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE IN SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT OR STATEMENTS.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

WE HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY AND RECENTLY EXPERIENCED A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN REVENUE THAT MAY NOT BE SUSTAINED.

Our business operations commenced in 1994, and subsequently the business was incorporated as a Delaware corporate entity in 1999. Our operating history may be insufficient to evaluate our business and future prospects. Although our revenue have grown rapidly in the past two years, primarily as a result of our increased acquisition activity, we cannot assure investors that we will maintain our profitability or that we will not incur net losses in the future. We expect that our operating expenses will increase as we expand. Any significant failure to realize anticipated revenue growth could result in significant operating losses. We will continue to encounter risks and difficulties in implementing our business model, including our potential failure to:

 
·
increase awareness of our brands, protect our reputation and develop customer loyalty;

 
·
manage our expanding operations and service offerings, including the integration of any future acquisitions;

 
·
maintain adequate control of our expenses; and

 
·
anticipate and adapt to changing conditions in the markets in which we operate as well as the impact of any changes in government regulation, mergers and acquisitions involving our competitors, technological developments and other significant competitive and market dynamics.

If we are not successful in addressing any or all of these risks, our business may be materially and adversely affected.

THE ACQUISITION OF NEW BUSINESSES IS COSTLY AND SUCH ACQUISITIONS MAY NOT ENHANCE OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION.

Our growth strategy is to acquire companies and identify and acquire assets and technologies from businesses in greater China that have services, products, technologies, industry specializations or geographic coverage that extend or complement our existing business. The process to undertake a potential acquisition is time-consuming and costly. We expend significant resources to undertake business, financial and legal due diligence on our potential acquisition target and there is no guarantee that we will acquire the company after completing due diligence. Any future acquisitions will be subject to a number of challenges, including:

 
·
the diversion of management time and resources and the potential disruption of our ongoing business;

 
·
difficulties in maintaining uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies;

 
·
potential unknown liabilities associated with acquired businesses;

 
·
the difficulty of retaining key alliances on attractive terms with partners and suppliers; and

 
·
the difficulty of retaining and recruiting key personnel and maintaining employee morale.

Our acquisitions could result in the use of substantial amounts of cash, potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities and exposure to undisclosed or potential liabilities of acquired companies. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, we acquired a controlling interest in Guangzhou 3G Information Technology Co. Ltd. (“Guangzhou3G-WOFE”), Guangzhou Clickcom Digit-net Science and Technology Ltd. (“Clickcom-WOFE”) and Shenzhen GuHaiGuanChao Investment Consultant Company Limited (“ChinaGoHi”), a wholly owned foreign enterprise (WOFE) registered in China. We expect that acquisitions will strengthen our position as a provider of outsourced call center, VAS and communication products in Asia. Although our agreements provide that the consideration is payable upon the acquired company attaining certain income milestones annually, there is no guarantee that these milestones will be reached. If they are not reached as anticipated, the time, cost and capital to acquire the company may outweigh the anticipated benefits from consolidation of their income. At December 31, 2005, PacificNet's consolidated balance sheet reflects approximately $14.8 million of goodwill, primarily as a result of several acquisitions that is not subject to amortization in the ordinary course of business. To the extent that the businesses acquired in these transactions do not remain competitive, some or all of the goodwill related to that acquisition could be charged against future earnings.
 
A SUBSTANTIAL PORTION OF OUR BUSINESS DEPENDS ON MOBILE TELECOMMUNICATIONS OPERATORS IN CHINA AND ANY LOSS OR DETERIORATION OF SUCH RELATIONSHIPS MAY RESULT IN SEVERE DISRUPTIONS TO OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS.

We rely entirely on the networks and gateways of China Mobile and China Unicom to provide our wireless value-added services. Thus, we face certain risks in conducting our wireless value-added services business, such as the following:

 
(1)
Currently, China Mobile and China Unicom are the only mobile telecommunications operators in China that have platforms for wireless value-added services. Our agreements with them are generally for a period of less than one year and generally do not have automatic renewal provisions. If neither of them is willing to continue to cooperate with us, we will not be able to conduct our existing wireless value-added services business.

 
(2)
Our agreements with China Mobile and China Unicom are subject to negotiation upon expiration. If any of the mobile telecommunications operators decides to change its content or transmission fees or its share of revenue, or does not comply with the terms of the agreement, our revenue and profitability could be materially adversely affected.

THE MOBILE TELECOMMUNICATIONS OPERATORS MAY LAUNCH AND MAY HAVE ALREADY LAUNCHED COMPETING SERVICES OR COULD DISCONTINUE THE USE OF EXTERNAL CONTENT AGGREGATORS SUCH AS OURSELVES ENTIRELY AT ANY TIME.

Due to our reliance on the mobile telecommunications operators for our wireless value-added services, any loss or deterioration of our relationship with any of the mobile telecommunications operators may result in severe disruptions to our VAS business operations and the loss of a significant portion of our revenue.

OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS MAY BE MATERIALLY AFFECTED BY THE CHANGES IN POLICIES OR GUIDELINES OF THE MOBILE TELECOMMUNICATIONS OPERATORS.

The mobile telecommunications operators in China may, from time to time, issue certain operating policies or guidelines, requesting or stating its preference for certain actions to be taken by all wireless value-added service providers using their platforms. Due to our reliance on the mobile telecommunications operators, a significant change in their policies or guidelines may have a material adverse effect on us. For example, some mobile telecommunications operators recently revised their billing policies to request all wireless value-added service providers to confirm the subscription status of those users who have not been active for three months. Such change in policies or guidelines may result in lower revenue or additional operating costs for us, and we cannot assure investors that our financial condition and results of operations will not be materially adversely affected by any policy or guideline change by the mobile telecommunications operators in the future.

WE MAY BE SUBJECT TO ADVERSE ACTIONS FOR ANY BREACH OR PERCEIVED BREACH BY US OF THE POLICIES OR GUIDELINES IMPOSED BY THE MOBILE TELECOMMUNICATIONS OPERATOR WITH RESPECT TO CONTENT PROVIDED ON OR LINKED THROUGH OUR WEBSITES.

The mobile telecommunications operators in China may impose policies or guidelines to govern or restrict the content provided by all wireless value-added service providers, including content developed by us or content supplied by others to us. The mobile telecommunications operators from time to time have requested wireless value-added services providers, including us, to remove objectionable content or links to or from websites with certain categories of content, including content that they may deem to be sexually explicit. We aggregate and develop content that we consider attractive to our targeted user base, and we cannot assure investors that the mobile telecommunications operators will not from time to time find certain portions of our content to be objectionable. In the case of a breach or perceived breach of such policies or guidelines, the mobile telecommunications operators may require us to reduce or curtail the content on our Internet portal, which may reduce our portal traffic, and the mobile telecommunications operators may have the right to impose monetary fines upon us, or terminate our cooperation with them. In addition, we would be liable to the mobile telecommunications operators for their economic losses pursuant to our agreements with these operators if we were found to be in breach of the policies or guidelines promulgated by them. As a result of the occurrence of any of the above, our financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

6


OUR DEPENDENCE ON THE SUBSTANCE AND TIMING OF THE BILLING SYSTEMS OF THE MOBILE TELECOMMUNICATIONS OPERATORS MAY REQUIRE US TO ESTIMATE PORTIONS OF OUR REPORTED REVENUE FOR WIRELESS VALUE-ADDED SERVICES FROM TIME TO TIME. AS A RESULT, SUBSEQUENT ADJUSTMENTS MAY HAVE TO BE MADE TO OUR WIRELESS VALUE-ADDED SERVICES REVENUE IN OUR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

As we do not bill our wireless value-added services users directly, we depend on the billing systems and records of the mobile telecommunications operators to record the volume of our wireless value-added services provided, charge our users through mobile telephone bills and collect payments from our users and pay us. In addition, we do not generally have the ability to independently verify or challenge the accuracy of the billing systems of the mobile telecommunications operators. Generally, within 20 to 60 days after the end of each month, a statement from each of the mobile telecommunications operators confirming the value of wireless value-added services they bill to users in that month will be delivered to us, and generally within 60 days after such delivery, we will be paid by the mobile telecommunications operators for the wireless value-added services, net of their revenue share, transmission fees and applicable business taxes, for that month based on such statements.

OUR COMMUNICATION PRODUCTS ARE PROVIDED CASH-ON-DELIVERY, WHICH LEAVES US VULNERABLE TO THEFT AND EMPLOYEE EMBEZZLEMENT.

The purchase of calling cards, SIM cards and other mobile phone products are made with cash. Although there is a low risk that clients will not pay for these services when delivered, our retail stores maintain cash on hand which might make them robbery targets. We also face the risk that employees who collect the cash and others who may be aware that cash is available at these sites might embezzle the money. Theft or embezzlement could have a material adverse effect on the revenue generated and the financial condition of our business operations.

WE INTEND TO OPERATE EACH OF OUR ACQUIRED BUSINESSES ON A STANDALONE BASIS.

We do not intend to integrate the information or communications systems, management, or other aspects of the businesses we acquire. If we integrated the businesses, we might be able to reduce expenses by eliminating duplicative personnel, facilities, or technology and other costs. In addition, facilities and technology integration might make inter-company communications and transactions more efficient. By declining to integrate the acquired businesses, we might forego opportunities to operate more profitably. Furthermore, our decision not to integrate these businesses might result in difficulties in evaluating the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, which could complicate compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

BECAUSE WE DO NOT HAVE EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS WITH MANAGEMENT OF THE ACQUIRED COMPANIES, OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS MIGHT BE INTERRUPTED IF THEY WERE TO RESIGN AND SEEK EMPLOYMENT WITH COMPETITORS.

As part of our acquisition strategy, we do not use our own employees or members of our management team to operate the acquired companies. Key management at these companies has been in place for several years and has established solid relationships with their customers. Competition in our industry for executive-level personnel is strong and we can make no assurance that we will be able to retain the highly effective executive employees. Although we provide incentives to management to stay with the acquired business, we have not entered into employment agreements with them. If such key persons were to resign we might face impairment of relationships with remaining employees or customers, which might result in further resignation by employees, and might cause long-term clients to terminate their relationship with us. Furthermore, we have not entered into any non-competition and confidentiality agreements with these employees and management. Due to the limited enforceability of these types of agreements in China, we face the risk that employees of the acquired subsidiaries might divulge our software and other protected intellectual property secrets to competitors.

OUR CUSTOMERS ARE CONCENTRATED IN A LIMITED NUMBER OF INDUSTRIES.

Our clients are concentrated primarily in the telecommunications, telemarketing and technology industries, and to a lesser extent, the insurance and financial services industries, where the current trend is to outsource certain CRM and VAS. Our ability to generate revenue depends on the demand for our services in these industries. An economic downturn, or a slowdown or reversal of the tendency in any of these industries to rely on outsourcing could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

7


THE MARKET IN WHICH WE COMPETE IS HIGHLY COMPETITIVE AND FRAGMENTED AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN MARKET SHARE.

We expect competition to persist and intensify in the future. Our competitors are mainly leaders in the CRM services market, such as PCCW Teleservices (Hong Kong) Limited, China Motion Telecom International Limited, and Teletech (Hong Kong) Limited. Our competitors also include small firms offering specific applications, divisions of large entities and other large independent firms. We face the risk that new competitors with greater resources than ours will enter our market. Furthermore, increasing competition among telecom companies in greater China has led to a reduction in telecommunication services fees that can be charged by such companies. If a reduction in telecommunication services fees negatively impacts revenue generated by our clients, they may require us to reduce the price of our services, or seek competitors of ours that charge less. If we must significantly reduce the price of our services, the decrease in revenue could adversely affect our profitability.

KEY EMPLOYEES ARE ESSENTIAL TO GROWING OUR BUSINESS.

Tony Tong, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Victor Tong, our President, are essential to our ability to continue to grow through acquisitions. Messrs. Tong and Tong have established relationships within our industry. Their business contacts have been critical in identifying and negotiating with acquisition candidates. If either of them were to leave our employ, our growth strategy might be hindered, which could limit our ability to increase revenue.

THE ESTABLISHMENT AND EXPANSION OF INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS REQUIRES SIGNIFICANT MANAGEMENT ATTENTION.

All of our current, as well as any anticipated future revenue, are or are expected to be derived from Asia. Our international operations are subject to risks, including the following, which, if not planned and managed properly, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results:

 
·
legal uncertainties or unanticipated changes regarding regulatory requirements, liability, export and import restrictions, tariffs and other trade barriers;

 
·
longer customer payment cycles and greater difficulties in collecting accounts receivable;

 
·
uncertainties of laws and enforcement relating to the protection of intellectual property; and

 
·
potentially uncertain or adverse tax consequences.

OUR OPERATIONS COULD BE CURTAILED IF WE ARE UNABLE TO OBTAIN REQUIRED ADDITIONAL FINANCING.

Since inception our investments and operations primarily have been financed through sales of our common stock. In the first quarter of 2006 we completed a financing of convertible debentures for $8,000,000. In the future we may need to raise additional funds through public or private financing, which may include the sale of equity securities, including securities convertible into our common stock. The issuance of these equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. If we are unable to raise capital when needed, our business growth strategy may slow, which could severely limit our ability to increase revenue.

FLUCTUATIONS IN THE VALUE OF THE HONG KONG DOLLAR OR RMB RELATIVE TO FOREIGN CURRENCIES COULD AFFECT OUR OPERATING RESULTS.

We have historically conducted transactions with customers outside the United States in United States dollars. Payroll and other costs of foreign operations are payable in foreign currencies, primarily Hong Kong dollars and Chinese renminbi. To the extent future revenue is denominated in foreign currencies, we would be subject to increased risks relating to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations that could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition and operating results. The value of Hong Kong dollars and Chinese renminbi against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in the PRC’s political and economic conditions. As our operations are primarily in Asia, any significant revaluation of Hong Kong dollars or the Chinese renminbi may materially and adversely affect our cash flows, revenue and financial condition. For example, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars into Hong Kong dollars or Chinese renminbi for our operations, appreciation of either currency against the U.S. dollar could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Conversely, if we decide to convert our Hong Kong dollars or Chinese renminbi into U.S. dollars for other business purposes and the U.S. dollar appreciates against either currency, the U.S. dollar equivalent of the respective currency we convert would be reduced. To date, we have not engaged in any hedging transactions in connection with our international operations.

8


WE HAVE NEVER PAID CASH DIVIDENDS AND ARE NOT LIKELY TO DO SO IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business. We do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future but will review this policy as circumstances dictate.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH DOING BUSINESS IN GREATER CHINA

There are substantial risks associated with doing business in greater China, as set forth in the following risk factors.

OUR OPERATIONS AND ASSETS IN GREATER CHINA ARE SUBJECT TO SIGNIFICANT POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC UNCERTAINTIES.

Changes in laws and regulations, or their interpretation, or the imposition of confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, imports and sources of supply, devaluations of currency or the nationalization or other expropriation of private enterprises could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Under its current leadership, the Chinese government has been pursuing economic reform policies that encourage private economic activity and greater economic decentralization. There is no assurance, however, that the Chinese government will continue to pursue these policies, or that it will not significantly alter these policies from time to time without notice.

CURRENCY FLUCTUATIONS AND RESTRICTIONS ON CURRENCY EXCHANGE MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS, INCLUDING LIMITING OUR ABILITY TO CONVERT CHINESE RENMINBI INTO FOREIGN CURRENCIES AND, IF CHINESE RENMINBI WERE TO DECLINE IN VALUE, REDUCING OUR REVENUE IN U.S. DOLLAR TERMS.

Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar and our operations in China and Hong Kong use their respective local currencies as their functional currencies. The majority of our revenue derived and expenses incurred are in Chinese renminbi with a relatively small amount in Hong Kong dollars and U.S. dollars. We are subject to the effects of exchange rate fluctuations with respect to any of these currencies. For example, the value of the renminbi depends to a large extent on Chinese government policies and China’s domestic and international economic and political developments, as well as supply and demand in the local market. Since 1994, the official exchange rate for the conversion of renminbi to U.S. dollars had generally been stable and the renminbi had appreciated slightly against the U.S. dollar. However, on July 21, 2005, the Chinese government changed its policy of pegging the value of Chinese renminbi to the U.S. dollar. Under the new policy, Chinese renminbi may fluctuate within a narrow and managed band against a basket of certain foreign currencies. As a result of this policy change, Chinese renminbi appreciated approximately 2.5% against the U.S. dollar in 2005. It is possible that the Chinese government could adopt a more flexible currency policy, which could result in more significant fluctuation of Chinese renminbi against the U.S. dollar. We can offer no assurance that Chinese renminbi will be stable against the U.S. dollar or any other foreign currency.

The income statements of our international operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in each applicable period. To the extent the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currencies denominated transactions results in reduced revenue, operating expenses and net income for our international operations. Similarly, to the extent the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currency denominated transactions results in increased revenue, operating expenses and net income for our international operations. We are also exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations as we convert the financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars in consolidation. If there is a change in foreign currency exchange rates, the conversion of the foreign subsidiaries’ financial statements into U.S. dollars will lead to a translation gain or loss which is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. In addition, we have certain assets and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other than the relevant entity’s functional currency. Changes in the functional currency value of these assets and liabilities create fluctuations that will lead to a transaction gain or loss. We have not entered into agreements or purchased instruments to hedge our exchange rate risks, although we may do so in the future. The availability and effectiveness of any hedging transaction may be limited and we may not be able to successfully hedge our exchange rate risks.

Although Chinese governmental policies were introduced in 1996 to allow the convertibility of Chinese renminbi into foreign currency for current account items, conversion of Chinese renminbi into foreign exchange for capital items, such as foreign direct investment, loans or securities, requires the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, which is under the authority of the People’s Bank of China. These approvals, however, do not guarantee the availability of foreign currency. We cannot be sure that we will be able to obtain all required conversion approvals for our operations or that Chinese regulatory authorities will not impose greater restrictions on the convertibility of Chinese renminbi in the future. Because a significant amount of our future revenue may be in the form of Chinese renminbi, our inability to obtain the requisite approvals or any future restrictions on currency exchanges could limit our ability to utilize revenue generated in Chinese renminbi to fund our business activities outside China, or to repay foreign currency obligations, including our debt obligations, which would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation.

9


WE ARE REQUIRED TO OBTAIN LICENSES TO EXPAND OUR BUSINESS INTO MAINLAND CHINA.

Our activities must be reviewed and approved by various national and local agencies of the Chinese government before they will issue business licenses to us. There can be no assurance that the current Chinese government, or successors, will continue to approve and renew our licenses. If we are unable to obtain licenses or renewals we will not be able to continue our business operations in mainland China, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

WE MAY HAVE LIMITED LEGAL RECOURSE UNDER PRC LAW IF DISPUTES ARISE UNDER OUR CONTRACTS WITH THIRD PARTIES.

The Chinese government has enacted some laws and regulations dealing with matters such as corporate organization and governance, foreign investment, commerce, taxation and trade. However, their experience in implementing, interpreting and enforcing these laws and regulations is limited, and our ability to enforce commercial claims or to resolve commercial disputes is unpredictable. If our new business ventures are unsuccessful, or other adverse circumstances arise from these transactions, we face the risk that the parties to these ventures may seek ways to terminate the transactions, or, may hinder or prevent us from accessing important information regarding the financial and business operations of these acquired companies. The resolution of these matters may be subject to the exercise of considerable discretion by agencies of the Chinese government, and forces unrelated to the legal merits of a particular matter or dispute may influence their determination. Any rights we may have to specific performance, or to seek an injunction under PRC law, in either of these cases, are severely limited, and without a means of recourse by virtue of the Chinese legal system, we may be unable to prevent these situations from occurring. The occurrence of any such events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

WE MUST COMPLY WITH THE FOREIGN CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT.

We are required to comply with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which prohibits United States companies from engaging in bribery or other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Foreign companies, including some of our competitors, are not subject to these prohibitions. Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices occur from time-to-time in mainland China. If our competitors engage in these practices they may receive preferential treatment from personnel of some companies, giving our competitors an advantage in securing business or from government officials who might give them priority in obtaining new licenses, which would put us at a disadvantage. Although we inform our personnel that such practices are illegal, we can not assure that our employees or other agents will not engage in such conduct for which we might be held responsible. If our employees or other agents are found to have engaged in such practices, we could suffer severe penalties.

PRC LAWS AND REGULATIONS RESTRICT FOREIGN INVESTMENT IN CHINA’S TELECOMMUNICATIONS SERVICES INDUSTRY AND SUBSTANTIAL UNCERTAINTIES EXIST WITH RESPECT TO OUR CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENTS WITH DIANXUN-DE, SUNROOM-DE, WANRONG-DE AND IMOBILE-DE TO UNCERTAINTIES REGARDING THE INTERPRETATION AND APPLICATION OF CURRENT OR FUTURE PRC LAWS AND REGULATIONS.

Since we are deemed to be foreign persons or foreign funded enterprises under PRC laws and cannot directly invest in telecommunications companies, we operate our IVR, call center and telecom value-added services business in China through operating companies or variable interest entities (VIEs) owned by PRC citizens. We control these companies and operate these businesses through contractual arrangements with the respective operating companies and their individual shareholders, but we have no equity control over these companies. Although we believe we are in compliance with current PRC regulations, we cannot be sure that the PRC government would view these operating arrangements to be in compliance with PRC licensing, registration or other regulatory requirements, with existing policies or with requirements or policies that may be adopted in the future. In the opinion of our in-house PRC legal counsel, our current ownership structure, the contractual arrangements among our wholly owned subsidiaries and the operating company and their shareholders comply with all existing applicable PRC laws, rules and regulations. Because this structure has not been challenged or examined by PRC authorities, they have not commented on it and uncertainties exist as to whether the PRC government may interpret or apply the laws governing these arrangements in a way that is contrary to the opinion of our in-house PRC counsel. If we, or the operating companies, were found to be in violation of any existing PRC laws or regulations, the relevant regulatory authorities would have broad discretion to deal with such violation, including, but not limited to the following:

10


 
·
levying fines;
 
 
·
confiscating income;

 
·
revoking licenses;

 
·
shutting down servers or blocking websites;

 
·
requiring a restructure of ownership or operations; and/or

 
·
requiring the discontinuance of wireless VAS and online advertising businesses.

We may also encounter difficulties in obtaining performance under or enforcement of related contracts. Any of these or similar actions could cause significant disruption to our business operations or render us unable to conduct a substantial portion of our business operations and may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

OUR CONTRACTUAL AGREEMENTS WITH DIANXUN-DE, SUNROOM-DE, WANRONG-DE AND IMOBILE-DE MAY NOT BE AS EFFECTIVE IN PROVIDING OPERATIONAL CONTROL AS DIRECT OWNERSHIP OF THESE BUSINESSES.

We depend on operating companies in which we have little or no equity ownership interest and must rely on contractual agreements to control and operate these businesses. Our contractual agreements with each of the operating companies may not be as effective in providing and maintaining control over the operating companies and their business operations as direct ownership of these businesses. For example, we may not be able to take control of the operating company upon the occurrence of certain events, such as the imposition of statutory liens, judgments, court orders, death or capacity. Furthermore, if the operating companies fail to perform as required under those contractual agreements, we will have to rely on the PRC legal system to enforce those agreements and due to the uncertainties that exist under PRC Law about the structure of our acquisition, and there is no guarantee that we will be successful in an enforcement action. In addition, the PRC government may propose new laws or amend current laws that may be detrimental to our current contractual agreements with our operating companies, which may in turn have a material adverse effect on our business operations.

THE PRC GOVERNMENT MAY PREVENT US FROM ADVERTISING OR DISTRIBUTING CONTENT THAT IT BELIEVES IS INAPPROPRIATE

China has enacted regulations governing Internet access and the distribution of news and other information. In the past, the Chinese government has stopped the distribution of information over the Internet or through VAS that it believes to violate PRC law, including content that it believes is obscene, incites violence, endangers national security, is contrary to the national interest or is defamatory. In addition, we may need the permission of the Chinese government prior to publishing certain news items, such as news relating to national security. Furthermore, the Ministry of Public Security has the authority to cause any local Internet service provider to block any website maintained outside China at its sole discretion. If the PRC government were to take any action to limit or prohibit the distribution of information through our network or via our VAS, or to limit or regulate any current or future content or services available to users on our network, our business could be significantly harmed. We are also subject to potential liability for content on our website that is deemed inappropriate and for any unlawful actions of our subscribers and other users of our systems. Furthermore, we are required to delete content that clearly violates the laws of China and report content that we suspect may violate PRC law. It is difficult to determine the type of content that may result in liability for us, and if we are wrong, we may be prevented from operating our website.

POTENTIAL VIOLATION OF THE PRC REGULATION DUE TO INSUFFICIENT REGISTERED CAPITAL OF VIE

Through GuangZhou DianXun Company Limited (the “Dianxun-DE”), a Chinese variable interest entity (‘VIE’) controlled through business agreement, we are able to provide indirectly to China’s telecom operators, a wide variety of wireless internet services for mobile phones, such as SMS, Wireless Application Protocol, or WAP, which allows users to access information instantly via handheld wireless devices, and Java mobile applications. The registered capital of Dianxun-DE was approx. US$1.25million, 90% of which was funded by borrowed assets at the inception of the company in order to obtain the operating license for the regulated VAS industry in which the VIE operates. The borrowed assets were returned to lenders subsequent to obtaining the necessary regulatory approval for the registered capital. On consolidation of this VIE for the year ended December 31, 2005, we reduced the registered capital of the VIE to $125,000 to reflect the fair value of its net asset value at the time of acquisition. We will not be able to continue our business operations through this VIE if the regulatory authorities do not renew the licenses due to insufficient registered capital. For indicative purposes according to the PRC Telecommunication Rules, all telecommunication value added service providers can only carry on business if a Company maintains a minimum capital requirement of at least RMB10,000,000. The minimum capital requirement required in Shanghai, China, in order to get a provincial VAS license is Rmb1,000,000 (or US$125,000).

RISKS RELATED TO OUR TECHNOLOGY AND EQUIPMENT

OUR INSURANCE MAY NOT BE SUFFICIENT TO RESTORE OUR CALL CENTER IF OPERATIONS ARE INTERRUPTED BY NATURAL DISASTER OR OTHER DESTRUCTION OF OUR FACILITIES OR EQUIPMENT.

Our operations depend on our ability to protect our call centers, data centers, CRM information, customer database, data warehouse, computer and telecommunications equipment and software systems against damage from fire, power loss, telecommunications interruption or failure, hacker attacks, natural disaster, epidemic, terrorism, act of war and other similar events. In the event we experience a temporary or permanent interruption at one or more of our call centers, through casualty, operating malfunction or otherwise, our business could be materially adversely affected and we may be required to pay contractual damages to some clients or allow some clients to terminate or renegotiate their contracts with us. While we maintain certain property and business interruption insurance, such insurance may not adequately compensate us for all losses that we may incur and may not be adequate to cover the costs of rebuilding these centers. If we are unable to restore our operations, our business activities would cease.

WE MUST RESPOND QUICKLY AND EFFECTIVELY TO NEW TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENTS.

Our VAS business is highly dependent on our computer and telecommunications equipment and software systems. Our failure to maintain the superiority of our technological capabilities or to respond effectively to technological changes could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. Our future success also depends on our ability to enhance existing software and systems and to respond to changing technological developments. If we are unable to successfully develop and bring to market new software and systems in a timely manner, our competitors technologies or services may render our products or services noncompetitive or obsolete.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK

EFFORTS TO COMPLY WITH RECENTLY ENACTED CHANGES IN SECURITIES LAWS AND REGULATIONS WILL INCREASE OUR COSTS AND REQUIRE ADDITIONAL MANAGEMENT RESOURCES. OUR FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR STOCK PRICE.

We have rapidly grown by acquisition since 2004. We do not integrate the business operations of our target companies and therefore have separate administration and accounting personnel at each subsidiary location. We have sought to improve our existing disclosure controls and procedures and to that end, have substantially increased our accounting and administrative resources. Due to the number of new subsidiaries we have acquired, we have faced significant challenges with the timely reporting of information necessary to complete the financial statements to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our failure to timely file our annual and quarterly reports may have an adverse affect on our stock price and may put our common stock in jeopardy of being delisted.

As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, public companies are required to include a report of management on the company’s internal controls over financial reporting in their annual reports on Form 10-K and the public accounting firm auditing a company’s financial statements must attest to and report on management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the company’s internal controls over financial reporting. This requirement will first apply to our annual report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2007. We have only recently begun to evaluate our internal controls over financial reporting. Given the status of our efforts, coupled with the fact that guidance from regulatory authorities in the area of internal controls continues to evolve, substantial uncertainty exists regarding our ability to comply by applicable deadlines. If we are unable to conclude that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting, or if our independent auditors are unable to provide us with an unqualified report as to the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 and future year ends, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we could experience delays or inaccuracies in our reporting of financial information, or non-compliance with SEC reporting and other regulatory requirements. This could subject us to regulatory scrutiny and result in a loss of public confidence in our management, which could, among other things, adversely affect our stock price.

WE ISSUED $8,000,000 IN CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES DUE IN 2009, OR POSSIBLY EARLIER, WHICH WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO REPAY IN CASH AND COULD RESULT IN DILUTION OF OUR BASIC EARNINGS PER SHARE.

In March 2006, we issued $8 million in convertible debentures due March 2009. The debentures are convertible at any time into shares of our common stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $10.00 per share, subject to adjustments for certain events. If any event of default occurs under the debentures or other related documents (including, but not limited to the payment of liquidated damages under the terms of the registration rights agreement, which as of the date of this prospectus, $35,000 of such liquidated damages has been paid), the holders may elect to accelerate the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the debenture, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages or other amounts, which shall become immediately due and payable. Beginning January 1, 2007, we are obligated to redeem $320,000 every month, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties. We may choose to pay such redemption amount in cash, or, subject to meeting certain conditions, we may pay all or a part of the redemption amount in shares of common stock. We may not have enough cash on hand or have the ability to access cash to pay the redemption amount, or upon acceleration of the debenture in the case of an event of default, or at maturity. In addition, the redemption of the debentures with our shares or the conversion of the debentures into shares of common stock could result in dilution of our basic earnings per share.

THE PRICE OF OUR STOCK HAS FLUCTUATED IN THE PAST AND MAY CONTINUE TO DO SO.

Our stock price has fluctuated dramatically. There is a significant risk that the market price of our common stock will decrease in the future in response to any of the following factors, some of which are beyond our control:

 
·
variations in our quarterly operating results;

 
·
announcements that our revenue or income are below analysts’ expectations;

 
·
general economic slowdowns;

 
·
changes in market valuations of similar companies;

 
·
sales of large blocks of our common stock;

 
·
announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments; and

 
·
fluctuations in stock market prices and volumes, which are particularly common among highly volatile securities of companies with primarily international-based operations.

FUTURE SALES OF SHARES COULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK

As of November 17, 2006, we had 14,008,497 shares of common stock issued, of which 11,671,836 shares were outstanding, which shares will be available to be sold in the public market in the near future, subject to, with respect to shares of common stock held by affiliates and shares issued between 12 and 24 months ago, the volume restrictions and/or manner of sale requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. On February 4, 2005, a registration statement on Form SB-2 was declared effective with respect to 2,702,230 shares of our common stock. These shares are freely tradable without restriction or further registration, subject to the related prospectus delivery requirements. Sales by our current shareholders of a substantial number of shares could significantly reduce the market price of our common stock.

As of November 17, 2006, we had stock options outstanding to purchase an aggregate of  1,026,000 shares of common stock, of which 526,000 stock options were exercisable and warrants outstanding to purchase 1,007,138 shares of our common stock. To the extent that the options and warrants are exercised, they may be exercised at prices below the price of our shares of common stock on the public market, resulting in a significant number of shares entering the public market and the dilution of our common stock. Further, in March 2006, we completed a private placement of $8,000,000 in convertible debentures. The debentures are convertible into shares of common stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $10.00, subject to adjustments. In the event that any future financing should also be in the form of securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, equity securities, investors may experience additional dilution upon the conversion or exchange of such securities.

USE OF PROCEEDS

This prospectus relates to shares of our common stock that may be offered and sold from time to time by certain selling stockholders. There will be no proceeds to us from the sale of shares of common stock in this offering. Assuming that all of the warrants held by selling stockholders are exercised for cash, we will realize proceeds of approximately $10,606,647. We would use these funds for general corporate purposes.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

We are registering for resale shares of our common stock (i) held by the selling stockholders identified below and (ii) issuable to the selling security holders upon the conversion of outstanding debentures or exercise of outstanding warrants, or that may be issued in the form of interest payments on such debentures. We are registering the shares to permit the securityholders and their pledgees, donees, transferees and other successors-in-interest that receive their shares from a stockholder as a gift, partnership distribution or other non-sale related transfer after the date of this prospectus to resell the shares when and as they deem appropriate.

The following table set forth: 

 
·
the name of the securityholders,

 
·
the number and percent of shares of our common stock that the securityholders beneficially owned prior to the offering for resale of the shares under this prospectus,

 
·
the number of shares of our common stock that may be offered for resale for the account of the securityholders under this prospectus, and

 
·
the number and percent of shares of our common stock to be beneficially owned by the security holders after the offering of the resale shares (assuming all of the offered resale shares are sold by the securityholders).

The number of shares in the column “Maximum Number of Shares to be Sold” represents all of the shares that each security holder may offer under this prospectus. We do not know how long the security holders will hold the shares before selling them or how many shares they will sell, and we currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any of the security holders regarding the sale of any of the resale shares. The shares offered by this prospectus may be offered from time to time by the securityholders listed below.

This table is prepared solely based on information supplied to us by the listed securityholders, any Schedules 13D or 13G and Forms 3 and 4, and other public documents they have filed with the SEC, and assumes the sale of all of the shares offered hereby. The applicable percentages of beneficial ownership are based on an aggregate of 11,671,836 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding on November 1, 2006 or subject to issuance upon exercise of the warrants, adjusted as may be required by rules promulgated by the SEC.

On March 13, 2006, we completed a private placement in which we sold $8,000,000 in convertible debentures, convertible into shares of common stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $10.000, subject to adjustment, and issued warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 416,000 shares of common stock. Under the terms of the registration rights agreement, we are required to register 150% of the maximum number of shares of our common stock issuable upon (i) conversion of the convertible debentures, (ii) exercise of the warrants and (iii) the payment of interest assuming the debentures remain outstanding for three years. Accordingly we have registered for resale an additional 660,000 shares. The number of shares included below in the columns entitled “Shares Beneficially Owned Prior to the Offering” and the “Maximum Number of Shares to be Sold” do not include the 104,000 interest shares issuable if the Company elects to issue such shares in lieu of cash and the additional 660,000 shares as these share amounts are not beneficially owned by the selling stockholders who participated in the March 2006 private placement. The 104,000 interest shares and 660,000 additional shares if issued, will be allocated to the investors from the convertible debenture financing on a pro rata basis.

On June 8, 2005, we entered into a consulting agreement with CEOCast, Inc., our current investor relations and public relations firm. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, part of the compensation to CEOCast consisted of the issuance of 26,000 shares of our common stock. We granted CEOCast piggyback registration rights with respect to those shares.

1,152,228 of the shares being offered by certain of the selling shareholders set forth below were previously registered on a Registration Statement of Form SB-2 (Registration No. 333-121792), that was declared effective on February 4, 2005.

No selling stockholder listed below has held any position nor had any material relationship with the us or our affiliates during the past three years, except that C.E. Unterberg, Towbin LLC acted as placement agent in the convertible debenture financing consummated in March 2006. C.E. Unterberg, Towbin Capital Partners I, L.P. is an entity associated with C.E. Unterberg, Towbin LLC. CEOCast is our investor and public relations firm.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each Selling Stockholder (the “Selling Stockholders”) of the common stock and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on the Nasdaq National Market or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

 
·
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
 
 
·
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

 
·
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

 
·
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

 
·
privately negotiated transactions;

 
·
settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;

 
·
broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;

 
·
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

 
·
a combination of any such methods of sale; or
 
 
·
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
 

The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), if available, rather than under this prospectus.

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with NASDR Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with NASDR IM-2440.

In connection with the sale of the common stock or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares of the common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Stockholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Common Stock. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would exceed eight percent (8%).

The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the shares. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Because Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act including Rule 172 thereunder. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the Selling Stockholders.

17


We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the shares may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume limitations by reason of Rule 144(k) under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the shares have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the common stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of the common stock by the Selling Stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 


FACTORS THAT COULD AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS
 
Factors that might cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those projected or implied in such forward-looking statements include, among other things:
 
l  
the impact of competitive products;
l  
changes in laws and regulations;
l  
adequacy and availability of insurance coverage;
l  
limitations on future financing;

l  
increases in the cost of borrowings and unavailability of debt or equity capital;
l  
the inability of the Company to gain and/or hold market share;
l  
exposure to and expense of resolving and defending liability claims and other litigation;
l  
consumer acceptance of the Company's products;

l  
managing and maintaining growth;
l  
customer demands;
l  
market and industry conditions,
l  
the success of product development and new product introductions into the marketplace;

l  
the departure of key members of management, and
l  
the effect of the United States War on Terrorism, as well as other risks and uncertainties that are described from time to time in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
Regarding one of our subsidiaries, for example, Epro is engaged in the business of providing outsourced call center services with over 15 years of field experience in Hong Kong and China. The factors that could affect current and future results are as follows:
 
l  
insufficient sales forces for business development & account servicing;
l  
lack of PRC management team in operation;
l  
less familiarity on partners' product knowledge;
l  
deployment costs of a new HR application and the costs to upgrade the call center computer system;

l  
increasing operations costs (cost of salaries, rent, interest rates & inflation) under rising economy in Hong Kong;
l  
insufficient brand awareness initiatives in the market;
l  
salary increases due to an active labor market in Hong Kong and GuangZhou; and
l  
increasing competition of call center solutions in the Hong Kong and PRC markets.
 
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
 
Our discussion and analysis or plan of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
 
On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to accounts receivable reserves, provisions for impairment losses of affiliated companies and other intangible assets, income taxes and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
 
20

 
Management believes the following critical accounting policies reflect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:
 
Allowance For Doubtful Accounts
 
We evaluate the collectibility of our trade receivables based on a combination of factors. We regularly analyze our significant customer accounts, and, when we become aware of a specific customer's inability to meet its financial obligations to us, such as in the case of bankruptcy filings or deterioration in the customer's operating results or financial position, we record a specific reserve for bad debt to reduce the related receivable to the amount we reasonably believe is collectible. We also record reserves for bad debt for all other customers based on a variety of factors including the length of time the receivables are past due, the financial health of the customer, macroeconomic considerations and historical experience. If circumstances related to specific customers change, our estimates of the recoverability of receivables could be further adjusted. In the event that our trade receivables become uncollectible, we would be forced to record additional adjustments to receivables to reflect the amounts at net realizable value. The accounting effect of this entry would be a charge to earnings, thereby reducing our net earnings. Although we consider the likelihood of this occurrence to be remote based on past history and the current status of our accounts, there is a possibility of this occurrence.
  
In the beginning of the third quarter of 2006, the Chinese government announced that it would implement several new policies regarding mobile phone value-added service providers effective from July 10, 2006. These policies include a “double confirmation” policy and the requirement that value-added service providers provide one-month trial subscriptions. By requiring that mobile phone customers “double-confirm” their intention to purchase services, and by requiring free subscriptions, the Chinese government has negatively affected value-added service providers.

Since the Company does business with several value-added service providers that have been negatively affected by the new mobile phone policies, during the three months ended September 30, 2006, the Company decided to incur a bad debt charge of approximately $657,000. This amount is listed as a separate line item in the consolidated statement of operations. The write down was considered prudent after an assessment by the Company’s internal control team that several customer accounts may be uncollectible as a result of Chinese government pressure on value-added service providers.

Although the Chinese government appeared to lessen restrictions by the end of the third quarter, the negative affect on the ability of certain of the Company’s customers to pay on accounts receivable already necessitated a provision for uncollectible accounts.

Inventory

Our inventory purchases and commitments are made in order to build inventory to meet forecasted demand for our products. We perform a detailed assessment of inventory for each period, which includes a review of, among other factors, demand requirements, product life cycle and development plans, component cost trends, product pricing and quality issues. Based on this analysis, we record adjustments to inventory for excess, obsolescence or impairment, when appropriate, to reflect inventory at net realizable value. Revisions to our inventory adjustments may be required if actual demand, component costs or product life cycles differ from our estimates. In the event we were unable to sell our products, the demand for our products diminished, and/or other competitors offered similar or better products, we would be forced to record an adjustment to inventory for impairment or obsolescence to reflect inventory at net realizable value. The accounting effect of this entry would be a charge to earnings, thereby reducing our net earnings.

In the beginning of the third quarter of 2006, the Chinese government announced that it would implement several new policies regarding mobile phone value-added service providers effective July 10, 2006. These policies include a “double confirmation” policy and the requirement that value-added service providers provide one-month trial subscriptions. By requiring that mobile phone customers “double-confirm” their intention to purchase services, and by requiring free subscriptions, the Chinese government has negatively affected value-added service providers.

Since the Company sells hardware to value-added service providers that have been negatively affected by the new mobile phone policies, during the three months ended September 30, 2006, we recorded an adjustment to inventory of $486,000. The write down was considered prudent after an assessment by the Company’s internal control team determined that the inventory was considered not readily saleable as a result of the recent government policy restrictions.

Although the Chinese government appeared to lessen restrictions by the end of the third quarter, the effect of lesser demand already necessitated a write-down of inventory.
 
21


 
Income Taxes
 
We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. We have considered future market growth, forecasted earnings, future taxable income, and the mix of earnings in the jurisdictions in which we operate and prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in determining the need for a valuation allowance. We currently have recorded a full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets as we currently believe it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In the event we determine that we would not be able to realize all or part of our net deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax assets would be charged to earnings in the period such determination is made. Likewise, if we later determine that it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets would be realized, the previously provided valuation allowance would be reversed.

Contingencies
 
We may be subject to certain asserted and unasserted claims encountered in the normal course of business. It is our belief that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations, however, we cannot provide assurance that damages that result in a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations will not be imposed in these matters. We account for contingent liabilities when it is probable that future expenditures will be made and such expenditures can be reasonably estimated.
 
Valuation of Long-Lived Assets Including Goodwill and Purchased Intangible Assets
 
We review property, plant and equipment, goodwill and purchased intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Our asset impairment review assesses the fair value of the assets based on the future cash flows the assets are expected to generate. An impairment loss is recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset (if any) are less than the carrying value of the asset. This approach uses our estimates of future market growth, forecasted revenue and costs, expected periods the assets will be utilized and appropriate discount rates. Such evaluations of impairment of long-lived assets including goodwill arising on a business combination and purchased intangible assets are an integral part of, but not limited to, our strategic reviews of our business and operations performed in conjunction with restructuring actions. When an impairment is identified, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value. Deterioration of our business in a geographic region or within a business segment in the future could also lead to impairment adjustments as such issues are identified. The accounting effect of an impairment loss would be a charge to earnings, thereby reducing our net earnings.  

Convertible Debt
 
In accordance with recent FASB accounting guidance, due to certain factors, including a liquidated damages provision in the registration rights agreement and an indeterminate amount of shares to be issued upon conversion of the debentures, the Company values and accounts for the embedded conversion feature related to the Debentures, the Investors’ warrants, and the registration rights as derivative liabilities. Accordingly, these derivative liabilities are measured at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings as long as they remain classified as liabilities. The Company reassesses the classification at each balance sheet date. If the classification required under EITF No. 00-19 changes as a result of events during the period, the contract should be reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification.
 
The fair value of these derivative instruments, as determined by applying the Black-Scholes valuation model, is adjusted quarterly. The Black-Scholes valuation model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. Additionally, although the Black-Scholes model meets the requirements of SFAS 133, the fair values generated by the model may not be indicative of the actual fair values as our derivative instruments have characteristics significantly different from traded options. Accordingly, the results obtained could be significantly different if other assumptions were used. The effect of this entry would be a charge to net earnings, thereby either increasing or reducing our net earnings based upon the assumptions used and the results obtained.

NATURE OF THE OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY
 
NATURE OF BUSINESS.

 
PacificNet Inc. is a leading provider of CRM and telecom services, ecommerce and gaming technology in China. We were incorporated in the state of Delaware in 1987. Our business consists of three groups, all of which operate within the outsourcing and telecommunications industries in Asia, primarily greater China, which includes the People's Republic of China (PRC), or mainland China, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), Macau Special Administrative Region, and Taiwan and one group that focuses on primarily administrative and corporate related matters. Through our subsidiaries we provide outsourcing services, telecom (VAS) services, and products (telecom & gaming) services. Our business process outsourcing (BPO) services include call centers providing customer relationship management (CRM) and telemarketing services, and our information technology outsourcing (ITO) includes software programming and development. We are value-added resellers and providers of telecom VAS, which comprises interactive voice response (IVR) systems, call center management systems, and VOIP, as well as mobile phone VAS, such as short messaging services (SMS) and multimedia messaging services (MMS). In 2004, we commenced our communication products distribution service, through wholesale and, to a lesser extent, retail sale and distribution of mobile phones, software and hardware, mobile accessories, and calling cards in Hong Kong and China. In 2005, we invested Take1Technologies (Cheer Era), a company that designs, manufactures, and distributes multimedia interactive self-service kiosks, bingo and gaming machines for the casino and slot machine operators Europe and Asia.

In August 2006, PacificNet Games Limited (PacGames) acquired 100% of Able Entertainment Technology Ltd., a leading provider of Asian multi-player electronic gaming machines, gaming technology solutions and gaming related maintenance, IT and distribution services for the leading hotel, casino and slot hall operators based in Macau, China and other Asian gaming markets. Macau is expected to surpass Las Vegas in total revenues by 2006. Currently, table games make up the bulk of Macau casino revenues, which is in sharp contrast to other areas such as Las Vegas. With this acquisition, PacGames is a leading developer of electronic versions of these popular table games which are less expensive to run resulting in higher casino profits with great appeal to the mass market players. Further, the growing market in Macau is for Asian table games such as Baccarat, Roulette, Fan Tan, Fish-Prawn-Crab and Sic-Bo Cussec as these games have wider acceptance in the Asian market than Western games such as poker or slots. The development, manufacturing, maintenance, and service of electronic Asian table games are underserved areas which are predicted to grow considerably as Macau's gaming market matures. PacGames products include multi-play electronic gaming machines such as Baccarat, Fish-Prawn-Crab, Sib-Bo Cussec, Roulette, and Video Lottery Terminals (VLT) such as Keno and Bingo, as well as other traditional slot machines. We intend to continue to grow our business by acquiring and managing growing technology and network communications businesses with established products and customers in Asia.  
 
Our business process outsourcing services generate revenue from call center services, call center management software sales, and training and consulting. We invoice our call center clients monthly at per seat monthly rates, a base price plus commission per call, or a per hour charge rate, depending on the client's preference. Our call center software clients pay per license, for which there is usually a one-time charge on sale of the software and annual maintenance fees for service. We charge per project for our consulting and training services and for our telecom VAS, which are invoiced throughout the project. Our telecom VAS often includes a post-sale service contract for systems integration and consulting services for which we bill separately. Our communication products such as calling cards, kiosks and cell phones are sold cash-on-delivery. Our gaming center operations generate revenue through the sale of gaming machines to casinos, or through resellers who sell to casinos. Currently we do not consolidate gaming operations as we do not currently hold a controlling interest in the gaming operations, but a 45% interest.
 
Our clients include the leading telecom operators, banks, insurance, travel, marketing, and service companies, as well as telecom consumers, in Greater China. Clients include China Telecom, China Netcom, China Mobile, China Unicom, PCCW, Hutchison Telecom, CSL, SmarTone, Sunday, Swire Travel, Coca-Cola, SONY, Samsung, Motorola, Nokia, TNT Express, Huawei, TCL, Dun & Bradstreet, American Express, Bank of China, DBS, Hong Kong Government, and Hongkong Post. PacificNet employs over 2,300 staff in our various subsidiaries in China with offices in Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou.
 
PacificNet's operations include the following four groups:
 
(1) Outsourcing Services: including Business Process Outsourcing (BPO), call center, IT Outsourcing (ITO) and software development services.
 
(2) Telecom Value-added Services: including Content Providing (CP), Interactive Voice Response (IVR), Platform Providing (PP) and Service Providing (SP).
 
(3) Products (Telecom & Gaming): including communication and gaming products, GSM/CDMA/3G Products, Multimedia Communication Kiosks. This Group includes the following subsidiaries: PacificNet Communications Limited, iMobile, Allink, Take1 and PacificNet Games. PacificNet Games Limited (PacGames) is a leading developer of Asian electronic gaming machines, multi-player electronic gaming technology solutions and gaming related maintenance, IT, and distribution services for the leading hotel and casino operators based in the Macau and other Asian gaming markets.
 
23

 
(4) Other Business: including internal administrative matters, other related corporate items, and other business such as PacificNet Power. PacifiNet Power Limited (PacPower) has enjoyed significant growth beginning in late 2005 and early 2006. PacPower was founded in Hong Kong on January 10, 2005 as a subsidiary of PacificNet Limited with 51% ownership by PacificNet. Headquartered in Hong Kong, PacPower invests in, develops, markets, distributes, resells, and manufactures energy saving products for use in commercial, residential and industrial settings. PacPower also engages in energy management services (EMS), energy savings consultation, analysis and solutions implementation, outsourcing energy management services, energy savings performance contract (ESPC). PacPower’s energy management services include electrical power management for lighting, air conditioning, elevators and escalators, buildings and roads, and energy related engineering services.
 
PacPower recognizes revenue from product sales under the following two types of contracts:
 
1) Equipment sale contract - Under the Equipment sale contract, we recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the sales price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, collectability is reasonably assured, delivery has occurred and accepted by the buyers.
 
2) Energy Management Contract (EMC) or Energy Savings Sharing Contract - Under this contract, we grant customers extended payment terms under contracts of sale. These contracts are generally for a period of one to six years at prevailing interest rates and are collateralized by the related equipment, which if repossessed, may be less than the receivable balance outstanding. We recognize revenue under profit sharing agreements when the amounts are fixed and determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Amounts received by us in excess of the original estimated cost savings on the contract is recorded as interest income.

THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006 COMPARED TO THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2005
 
REVENUES. Revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 were $12,875,000 and $47,239,000, an increase of 17% and 45% from $11,047,000 and $32,539,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively. During the third quarter and first nine months of 2006, revenues of $3,733,000, $2,350,000, $6,411,000 and $10,312,000, $14,907,000, $18,262,000 were derived from the services rendered by the Company's three operating units: Outsourcing Services, Telecom Value-Added Services, and Products (Telecom & Gaming), respectively. The revenues in product sales during the third quarter of 2006 increased by 21% and 37% compared to the same periods of 2005. The revenues in services sales during the third quarter of 2006 increased by 11% and 56% compared to the same periods of 2005.
 
24

 
The increase in revenue was mainly due to the following:
 
(1)  
Outsourcing services: The year-over-year increase in outsourcing services for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was primarily due to 44% and 30% growth in Epro compared to the same period in 2005. During the first nine months of 2006, the outsourcing contract center in Hong Kong was at nearly full utilization. Driven by strong gains in outbound services, insourcing services and facilities management services, Epro recorded double digit gains in revenue. As salaries continue to rise in Hong Kong and China, companies are under greater pressure to manage their labor costs. Outsourcing has become an attractive tool for companies in the region to manage these costs. Additionally, the Company signed deals with several new clients, including a deal to provide customer service operation management training for NanJing Airlines. The McDonalds Corporation selected the Company to provide web-based quality management services and supplier quality management services.
 
(2)  
Separately, stricter guidelines established by the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) led to a decrease in the Company’s ability to market its investment consulting services to retail audiences, which resulted in revenue underperformance. Nevertheless, although barriers remain on marketing through television, the Company has successfully expanded its use of stored-value cards to maintain its market position. Due to its large and loyal retail following, the Company believes it can work through the current regulatory environment. Additionally, the Company has shifted its marketing emphasis to the internet and to magazines.
 
(3)  
Products (Telecom & Gaming): iMobile added approximately $863,000 and $1,326,000, or accounted for 13% and 7% in this segments revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, in which its major business included internet sales of mobile phone and accessories. The revenues from the sales of Motorola and Nokia contributed 95% of iMobile’s total revenues during the third quarter of 2006. The Company’s 18900.com website has now become one of the leading Internet e-commerce distributor of mobile products in China, covering 1,572 cities throughout the nation. Additionally, during the third quarter, PacificNet iMobile entered into a new agreement with Motorola to become a designated after-sales service provider for Motorola’s mobile products and accessories in China.
 
Continued strength in the Company’s Hong Kong mobile phone wholesaler subsidiary drove sales gains. The Company believes its Hong Kong mobile phone wholesale subsidiary is now one of the top five largest wholesalers of mobile phones in Hong Kong, and its position has attracted numerous overseas wholesale buyers.
 
(4)  
The remaining incremental revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to respective period was derived from organic growth from existing subsidiaries, such as PacPower ($176,000 and $2,650,000) and PacificNet Limited ($124,000 and $949,000).
 
Acquisitions during the first nine month of 2006 expanded PacificNet’s position as a leading provider of e-commerce, customer services and CRM in China's mobile distribution market, and increased our e-commerce and VAS revenues and our nationwide CRM service coverage. Several of our businesses experienced fluctuations in quarterly performance.

COST OF REVENUES. Cost of revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $10,392,000 and $33,352,000, an increase of 17% and 28% from $8,852,000 and $25,979,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively. The cost of revenues in services sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 increased by 8% and 14%, respectively, and  cost of revenues in product sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 increased by 23% and 36%, respectively, in each case compared with the respective period in 2005. The increase is directly associated with the corresponding increase in revenues. In comparison to the same period last year, the majority of the costs associated with revenues were from Shanghai Classic, PacCom and Epro. Cost of goods sold increased as sales at the Company’s mobile phone subsidiaries increased.
 
GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $2,483,000 and $13,887,000, a significant increase of 13% and 112% as compared to $2,195,000 and $6,560,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively. Gross margin was 19% and 29% of total revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, compared to 20% and 20% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively. As explained above, the improvement in gross margin for three and nine months periods from the prior periods was primarily due to increased contributions from higher margin subsidiaries. As a result of the shift in operations, we had lower revenue and higher than normal profit margin for project outsourcing during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006. We believe that our overall gross margins approximate the industry standards and we expect our gross margin percentage to increase gradually as a result of cost reduction and greater efficiencies in our utilization of assets.

As part of its strategy of shifting to higher-margin businesses, the Company is increasingly focusing on the gaming businesses. Gross profit margins from the company’s new PacGames subsidiary are currently more than 50%.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $2,482,000 and $9,982,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, an increase of 147% and 206% from $1,004,000 and $3,261,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of staff salaries, rent, insurance and traveling costs. The year-over-year increase in total general and administrative expenses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was mainly due to the increase in staff costs as well as rent and electricity expenses for the expansion of its call center (Epro accounted for 11% of total selling, general and administrative expenses). The marketing expenses and staff cost from the new 3G service and Wanrong’s services also significantly affected the total expenses during the third quarter of 2006 accounting for approximately 9% of the total selling, general and administrative expenses. Additionally, Linkhead accounted for 9% of the total selling, general and administrative expenses.

The significant increase for general and administrative expenses from PacificNet Inc. year-over-year for the first nine months of 2006 was also partly due to $120,043 of vesting option expense for compensation cost amortization, $92,740 amortization cost from $8 million convertible debt issuance cost (3 years amortization) and depreciation cost from Beijing Time court (USD1.6m depreciated through 40 years). Additionally, there is approximately $127,532 financial expense for PacificNet Inc. Such expense consists of (1) convertible debt interest, in which 5% is prepaid interest expense, $100,000 is expensed in Q3 2006 and the following three quarters (Q4 2006 and Q1 2007); and (2) the bank loan interest for Beijing Time Court ($14,347) in which the total amount of its bank loan is $1,082,000.

EARNINGS/ (LOSS) FROM OPERATIONS. On a year-over-year basis, loss from operations decreased 304% and 49% for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively. Operating earnings/(loss) of $113,000, $(833,000), and $(191,000) for the three months ended September 30, 2006 were generated from the Company's three business units: (1) CRM Outsourcing Services, (2) Telecom Value-Added Services, and (3) Products (Telecom & Gaming) Services, respectively. This compares to operating earnings/(loss) of $217,000, $824,000 and $172,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2005, respectively. Various factors affected operating earnings during the third quarter of 2006, including increased capital expenditures resulting in greater non-cash charges such as depreciation and amortization expenses. As the Company expanded its call center sites in Hong Kong, amortization and depreciation expenses related to the new leasehold improvement, furniture & fixtures, computer equipment and software incurred in the first nine months of 2006 also increased. The increase in fixed assets also included a recorder monitor system, DVCAM, computer equipment. We continued to shift our business from our traditional lower-margin distribution business (B2B services) to higher margin value-added telecom services and B2C e-commerce. We believe that the Company has made substantial progress in a relatively short period of time which has been demonstrated by our increase in both gross and operating margins in the third quarter. Furthermore, the acquisition of majority interests in both iMobile and Guangzhou Wanrong during the first quarter enhanced our position in the rapidly growing B2C market in China.
 
INCOME TAXES. Income tax provision was $(119,000) and $(319,000) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to $13,000 and $(51,000) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005. Interim income tax provisions are based upon management’s estimate of taxable income and the resulting consolidated effective income tax rate for the full year. As a result, such interim estimates are subject to change as the year progresses and more information becomes available. We expect our income taxes to increase as our net earnings increase and the tax holidays we have benefited from in Hong Kong and the PRC expire.
 
MINORITY INTERESTS. Minority interests for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006 totaled $529,000 and $(1,405,000) compared with $(612,000) and $(1,916,000) for the same period in the prior year, representing outside ownership interests in subsidiaries that is consolidated with the parent for financial reporting purposes.

NET EARNINGS / (LOSS). Overall net loss year-over-year increased 282% and 62% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively. The Company’s results for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 included a total of $2,400,000 in non-cash expenses, including depreciation and amortization expense of $994,000 and $179,000 non-cash stock-based compensation expense recognized during 2006 as a result of the implementation of SFAS 123(R), which we adopted effective on January 1, 2006, The Company’s quarterly results also included a total of $1,341,000 in non-cash expenses, including depreciation and amortization expense of $388,000. Each of our subsidiaries and investments, including Epro, Smartime, Guangzhou 3G, Clickcom, ChinaGoHi, iMobile, PacificNet Communications, PacificNet Limited and PacificNet Power were profitable.

REVENUE. Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $44,341,000, an increase of 49% as compared to $29,709,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase in revenue was mainly due to revenue derived from the value-added telecom services rendered by the Company’s newly acquired subsidiaries, Guangzhou3G ($3,143,000), Clickcom ($365,000) and Lion Zone ($1,194,000). In the aggregate, the three newly acquired subsidiaries contributed to 11% of the total revenue. Revenue from the VAS and IVR segment can vary from quarter to quarter due to new product launches and the seasonality of certain product lines. The “Other Business” column includes the revenue and earnings/(loss) from operations of our other insignificant subsidiaries. Summarized financial information for each of our four business operating segments is set forth in the table below.

(1) OUTSOURCING SERVICES

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $13,505,000, an increase of 44% as compared to $9,385,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004. Outsourcing services revenue made up 26.54% of the Company’s total revenue for the fourth quarter of the year due to its subsidiary being selected by China’s State Administration of Taxation to provide integrated call center services training for the tax bureau’s “123661” customer services center in Shenzhen and it is believed that the contact center expansion in Guangzhou will lead to over 40% annual revenue growth in the coming years. One of the reasons the revenue increased is due to the continuous rapid growth on computer software product and the company provides a seamless solution and multi-media channels for clients to communicate with their customers for building better customer relationship and generating more sales revenue. The combination of its innovative infomercials along with our growing call center operations will allow us to support significant future growth. It is a strong vote of confidence in our future development in China’s growing CRM call center market due to our expansion from B2B outsourced call center services into B2C infomercial services market for vertical industries which a growing number of domestic and multinational companies across a number of industries are selecting us to enhance customer services. This demand for CRM services reflects the increasingly competitive nature of the Chinese marketplace where customers choose a provider not solely based upon price, but also on customer services. We believe that our CRM contact center has emerged as the new competitive advantage for the market leaders in China and we are well positioned to benefit from this trend.

(2) VALUE-ADDED SERVICES

VAS revenue for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $13,834,000, a significant increase of 142% as compared to $5,724,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004. Our acquisition of 3G, Clickcom and Lion Zone in 2005 contributed to the increase in revenue for this business segment and helped us enter the mobile Internet market in China. VAS revenue made up 49.1% of the Company’s total revenue for the fourth quarter of the year. Presently, approximately 80% of mobile phone users use VAS in China. The Company’s revenue in the sales of voice cards continued to grow through Linkhead-generated NMS cards and with the cards increasing use in voice hardware equipment, based on CPCT industry control machines and Media Server which supports access from both PSTN and VoIP, softswitch and 3Gnetworks. These phone cards sold through the VAS segment differ from the calling cards sales in the Communication Distribution Business as described below in that those phone cards are geared towards the end user and include prepaid calling cards, IDD long distance calling cards, internet access cards, bundled cross-selling insurance cards, shopping discount cards, travel and hotel reservation cards, entertainment cards, and customer loyalty membership cardsFor example, the Bank of China Shanghai selected PacificNet Epro to provide CRM and call center management training, to enhance agent productivity, to improve call center service quality, and to revise the strategic market positioning for the bank.

(3) COMMUNICATION PRODUCTS DISTRIBUTION

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $16,201,000, an increase of 37% as compared to $11,790,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004. Its revenue remained steady growth during the year due to the increasing market growth in communication products distribution services. Communication products distribution revenue made up 20.3% of the Company’s total revenue for the fourth quarter of the year. In FY2005, sales mix of high-margin products such as number cards and IP cards increased whereas substantial portion of FY2004 revenue were derived from low-margin prepaid stored-value cards. This improved sales mix was achieved through sales incentive scheme. Furthermore, we believe that our Take1 and My Memory Maker Kiosks are a natural fit in the self-service vending machine, party, amusement, and casino market, and we also believe there are strong opportunities for growth in high-traffic tourist and amusement destinations. Recently, the Company had entered into a definitive agreement to acquire iMobile in order to enhance our position in this rapidly growing B2C market in China.

COST OF REVENUE AND GROSS MARGIN. Cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $33,439,000 an increase of 38% from $24,074,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The slight increase in the cost of revenue was directly associated with the increase in revenue. Cost of revenue, as a percentage of revenue, was 75% for the year ended December 31, 2005 as compared with 81% for the year ended December 31, 2004. The decrease in percentage cost of revenue was attributable to the changes in operations, from supplying systems integration and software applications in 2004 to becoming value-added telecom services and product providers in 2005. Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $10,902,000 an increase of 93% as compared to $5,635,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004, resulting from gross margin contributions from our newly acquired subsidiaries in 2005. Gross profit for the fourth quarter of the year was $5,047,000, a significant increase of 265% as compared to $1,379,000 for the same period in 2004; or a significant increase of 153% as compared to the third quarter of 2005.

We believe that our gross margin overall approximates the industry standards. The significant increase in gross margin came primarily from, our phone card business, which has higher gross margins, typical for that industry. We expect our gross margin percentage to increase gradually as a result of cost reduction and efficient utilization of assets.

(1) OUTSOURCING SERVICES

As compared to prior year, cost of revenue for outsourcing services increased by 55% to $10,095,000 (2004: $6,491,000). Gross profit was 4% lower at $3,409,000 (2004: $3,543,000). Gross profit of $1,069,000 for the fourth quarter had a significant increase of 56% as compared to $682,000 for the third quarter of 2005 due to the increasing demand for outsourcing contact center services, especially from the industries of telecom, banking, market research and fast-moving consumer goods, among others. The slightly decline year over year was primarily due to the enhanced Hong Kong market competition.

However, from the perspective of high-margin IT Solutions, EPRO enjoyed growth in FY2005 from its self-developed Contact Center System - WISE-xb Contact Center System and TNT Hong Kong selected this contact center solution with customer management capabilities to improve efficiency and enhance customer satisfaction.

(2) VALUE-ADDED SERVICES

As compared to prior year, cost of revenue for VAS increased by 75% to $7,715,000 (2004: $4,403,000). Gross profit was 262% much higher at $6,119,000 (2004: $1,688,000). Gross profit of $3,241,000 for the fourth quarter also had a significant increase of 471% as compared to the same period in 2004; or an increase of 184% as compared to $1,141,000 for the third quarter of 2005. Throughout the new acquisitions in 2005 such as Lion Zone with higher gross margin, it moved our strategic consolidation in China’s CRM and VAS market, and increased our customer base and improved our gross margin. The increasing gross profit is also derived from the continued profitability in the sale of phone cards. Furthermore, Company increased market share in the voice/IVR supplier market.

(3) COMMUNICATION PRODUCTS DISTRIBUTION

As compared to prior year, cost of revenue for communication products distribution slightly increased by 17% to $15,347,000 (2004: $13,106,000). Gross profit was 194% higher at $854,000 (2004: $290,000). The fourth quarter is normally the strongest due to holiday-related promotions which increase the spending of our customers with us and therefore higher margin was expected. Furthermore, since revenue made up the highest rate of 36.5% of the Company’s total revenue and cost of revenue had only slightly increased in 2005, its gross profit relatively increased more to reach our future expectation. As one of its subsidiaries, Shanghai Classic Group Limited (Yueshen) signed an agreement to become a designated integrated services distributor of China Mobile in 2005, it increased the Company’s overall distribution revenue and profit margin. The improved gross margin was mainly due to increased sales mix from higher margin products such as number cards with average gross margin of 8 to 15% and IP calling cards with average gross margin of 30% instead of low-margin prepaid stored-value cards with just around 2% gross margin.

(4) OTHER BUSINESS

Cost of revenue and gross profit for PacificNet Power for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $269,000 and $67,000. PacificNet Power did not exist in 2004, so no comparison is available for 2004.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, General and Administrative expenses totaled $5,811,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, an increase of 69% from $3,435,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004. As our fourth quarter results included several one-time charges or expenses such as the $103,250 NASDAQ National Market Entry Fee, quarterly SG&A had significant increase of 183% as compared to the third quarter of the year. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses reflected the expansion of our operations of which expenses were incurred by our newly acquired subsidiaries and the expansion of the management team. In addition to making several key acquisitions in 2005, we laid the foundation for a strong future, by hiring additional personnel in key areas to support our accounting and back-office functions, as well as implemented the systems to allow the Company to better measure the performance of each of its units.

29


(1) OUTSOURCING SERVICES

Selling, General and Administrative expenses for outsourcing services were $1,628,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, a reduction of $502,000 from $2,130,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004. Due to the increase in the demand for telemarketing and call center services, one of the subsidiaries purchased a new 250-seat call center facility in China, to support the rapidly growing business of the company. It caused an increase of 103% to $482,000 for SG&A for the fourth quarter of the year. However, a wide array of supporting services are provided, including professional inbound services, outbound services, facilities management and IVRS support services, to meet clients’ diversified needs.

(2) VALUE-ADDED SERVICES

Selling, General and Administrative expenses for VAS were $2,159,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, an increase of $2,072,000 as compared to $87,000 in 2004. The increase of SG&A resulted from increasing the size of our operations which included premises costs and staff costs from the three new acquisitions.

(3) COMMUNICATION PRODUCTS DISTRIBUTION

Selling, General and Administrative expenses for communication products distribution were $271,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, an increase of 188% as compared to $94 for the year ended December 31, 2004. This business is easily scalable depending on the availability of working capital, since one of the subsidiaries, Shanghai Classic, needs to pay the telephone operators/suppliers cash upfront.

(4) OTHER BUSINESS

Selling, General and Administrative expenses were $167,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSES. Depreciation and amortization expenses were $1,126,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, which represented 1344% increase as compared to the year ended December 31, 2004 of which depreciation and amortization expenses was $78,000.

EARNINGS FROM OPERATIONS.  Operating profit of $4,569,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, a significant increase of 136% as compared to $1,937,000 from the year ended December 31, 2004. Operating margins nearly doubled to 10.3% from 6.5% in the previous year. Quarterly operating profit was $1,702,000, an increase of 66% as compared to $1,026,000 from Q3 2005.

These are compared to $217,000, $974,000, and $172,000 respectively for Q3 2005. Operating profit of $1,360,000, $3,899,000 and $558,000 generated from business units (1), (2) and (3) for the year ended December 31, 2005 represented an increase of 36%, 110% and 556% respectively, as compared to $1,000,000, $1,859,000, and $85,000 respectively for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase in operating margin reflects Company’s continuous shift away from our traditional lower-margin phone card distribution business (B2B services) to higher margin value-added telecom services and B2C e-commerce. We believe that in 2006 this strategy will result in increased profitability. This strategy is beginning to work, as our operating margin increased from 6.5% in 2004 to 10.3% in 2005.

INTEREST EXPENSES / INCOME. Interest income was $246,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, an increase of 211% as compared to $79,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The increase is due to 62% of interest income generated from PacificNet Communications. Interest income was mainly generated from $152,000 of PacificNet Communications from lending and fixed-rate bank deposits (62% of total interest income) and $45,000 of PacificNet Strategic Investment Holdings Limited from bank deposits. Interest expenses were $229,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005, an increase of 24% as compared to $185,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004. Most of the interest expenses were attributed to bank loans by PacificNet Strategic Investment Holdings ($34,000) and Linkhead ($26,000), and bank loans and bank overdraft by Epro ($133,000).

SUNDRY INCOME/EXPENSE. Sundry income known as non-operating income is defined as the external income (miscellaneous income) that results from factors outside of our operating subsidiaries’ control and such income does not related to each subsidiaries’ core operating business. Income from the sale of various investments is one of the typical examples. (See Note 11 for details)

For the year ended December 31, 2004, the non-operating income or sundry income was mainly derived from Linkhead’s consulting services income from system integration services totaling $380,000.

For the year ended December 31, 2005, the non-operating income or sundry income was $830,000 included in Statement of Operations was mainly derived from the consulting services income of $116,000, software service income of $375,000, investment income of $113,000, leasehold income of $75,000 and various other totaling $151,000.

SHARE OF PROFIT OF ASSOCIATED COMPANIES. We recorded the loss of $8,000 for the year ended 2005 with respect to our 20% ownership interest in Take1 Technology (Cheer Era Limited), acquired in April 2004.

INCOME TAXES.  The income taxes expenses for the Company’s subsidiaries were $222,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005. The provision of income taxes was the result of the operating profit generated by Guangzhou3G, Clickcom and ChinaGoHi, the subsidiaries we acquired in 2005. Pursuant to the PRC Income Tax Laws, the Company’s subsidiaries and VIEs are generally subject to Enterprise Income Taxes (“EIT” at a statutory rate of 33%, which comprises 30% national income tax and 3% local income tax. Some of these subsidiaries and VIEs are qualified new technology enterprises and under PRC Income Tax Laws, they are subjected to a preferential tax rate of 15%. Guangzhou3G-DE as software enterprise comprises 15% tax rate for one year during 2005 and it can continue to apply 15% tax rate after this is expired. In addition, Guangzhou 3G-WOFE, as a new High Technology Foreign Investment Enterprises and under PRC Income Tax Laws, is entitled to a two-year tax exemption in 2005 and 2006. In order to improve the technology market in China, another of our high-tech subsidiaries, Linkhead, is entitled a three-year tax exemption followed by three years with a 50% reduction in the tax rate, commencing the first operating year. Therefore, Linkhead’s taxes have been remitted during January 1, 2003 to December 31, 2005 but it pays taxes at 7.5% from January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2008.

MINORITY INTERESTS.  Minority interests for the year ended December 31, 2005 totaled $2,926,000. Minority interests represented the interests of third parties in our subsidiaries’ results.

NET EARNINGS.  Net earnings for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $2,489,000 as compared to net earnings of $774,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004. Operating profit of $1,360,000, $3,899,000 and $558,000 generated from the Company’s three business units: (1) CRM Outsourcing Services, (2) Value-Added Services (VAS) and (3) Telecom Distribution Services, represented an increase of 36%, 110% and 556% respectively as compared to $1,000,000, $1,859,000, and $85,000 respectively for the year ended December 31, 2004. The overall net earnings increased sharply due to (i) the Company acquired direct response television and infomercial marketing services company in China which received an award by the Chinese tax bureau as one of the “Top 100 Tax-Paying Enterprises” in Shenzhen as recognition for profit generation, commercial leadership and government contribution; (ii) launched a new Mobile Mailbox Service called “UMAIL” for Unicom’s CDMA users on its WAP Portal website; (iii) signed up China Mobile for New Blog Service and so forth. Furthermore, the new facility in China should lead to growth in profit margin because the labor cost and office facility is less than half of the cost in Hong Kong.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2004 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003

REVENUES. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2004 were $29,709,000, an increase of $28,492,000 from $1,217,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. Increase in revenue was mainly due to revenues derived from the call center and value-added telecom services rendered by the Company’s newly acquired subsidiaries of YueShen, Epro, Linkhead and Smartime. In the aggregate, the four newly acquired subsidiaries contributed to 91% of total revenues. Summarized financial information concerning each of these subsidiaries was set forth in the following table.

COST OF REVENUES AND GROSS MARGIN. Cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2004 were $24,074,000, an increase of $23,376,000 from $698,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. The significant increase in cost of revenues was directly associated with the increase in revenues. Cost of revenues, as a percentage of revenues, was 81% for the year ended December 31, 2004 compared with 57% for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in percentage cost of revenues was attributable to the changes in operations, from supplying systems integration and software application in 2003 to becoming value-added telecom services and product providers in 2004. Gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $5,635,000, an increase of $5,116,000 from $519,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003, resulting from gross margin contributions from our newly acquired subsidiaries in 2004. We believe that our gross margin overall approximates the industry standards. The decrease in gross margin came primarily from Yueshen, our calling card business, which, typically for that industry, has lower gross margins. However, we expect our gross margin percentage to increase gradually as a result of cost reduction and efficient utilization of assets.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, General and Administrative expenses, including interest expense, totaled $3,620,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004, an increase of $1,840,000 from $1,780,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses reflected the expansion of our operations of which expenses were incurred by our newly acquired subsidiaries.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSES. Depreciation and amortization expenses amounted to $78,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004, which was approximately the same as the year ended December 31, 2003 of which depreciation and amortization expenses was $76,000.

INTEREST INCOME. Interest income was $79,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared to an interest income of $27,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in income was due to increase in cash and bank balance during 2004 as a result of cash flow from funding activities.

SHARE OF PROFIT OF ASSOCIATED COMPANIES. For the year ended 2004, we recorded income of $32,000 with respect to our 30% ownership interest in Cheer Era Limited, acquired in April 2004.

INCOME TAXES. The income taxes expenses for the Company’s subsidiaries were $30,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004. The provision of income taxes was the result of the operating profit generated by YueShen and Smartime, the subsidiaries we acquired in 2004. During the year ended December 31, 2004, YueShen, Smartime and Epro provided income taxes expenses of $8,000, $12,000 and $10,000, respectively.

MINORITY INTERESTS. Minority interests for the year ended December 31, 2004 totaled ($1,623,000) compared to $7,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005. Minority interest represented the interests of third parties in our subsidiaries’ results.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS. We had no outstanding derivative financial instruments, off-balance sheet guarantees, interest rate swap transactions or foreign currency forward contracts. We did not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts during 2004.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS.
 
As of September 30, 2006, cash and cash equivalents were $7,439,000, compared to $9,579,000 at December 31, 2005 as a result of the decrease of cash and cash equivalents of more than $2.3 million for Lion Zone. The significant reduction for Lion Zone was primarily attributed to a loan to a related party of approximately $2.3million, acquisition of property and equipment, and taxes paid. The loan for Lion Zone is a related party advance with no fixed maturity date and captioned under “Loans receivable from related Parties” in the consolidated balance sheet.
 
WORKING CAPITAL.
 
The Company’s working capital increased to $28,106,000 at September 30, 2006, as compared to $20,510,000 at December 31, 2005. When compared to balances at December 31, 2005, an increase of 37.04% in working capital at September 30, 2006 was primarily due to the increases in current assets and the decrease in current liabilities accounts. The increase of current assets was mainly the result of significant increase in accounts receivable which was attributable to our existing subsidiaries and a significant increase in loan receivable from related parties. The decrease of current liabilities was primarily due to the decrease of accrual expense and other payable. The increase of accounts receivable at September 30, 2006 was mainly driven from the increase of $2,020,000 from PacPower (due to the revenues from Light Eco and Pure Air projects), the increase of $2,224,000 from PacCom, and the increase of $523,000 from Epro.

CASH FLOWS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006

NET CASH FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES.
 
Net cash (used in) operating activities was $(6,416,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $133,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. Net cash used in operating activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was primarily due to net earnings of $604,000 offset by noncash items such as minority interest of $1,405,000, depreciation and amortization of $1,173,000, decrease in charge in fair value of derivatives of 1,212,000, provision for allowance for doubtful accounts of $657,000, inventory write down of $486,000, equity profit of associated company of $129,000, provision for income tax of $(183,000), amortization of interest discount of $307,000, and liquidated damages expense of $800,000 offset by a net decrease in working capital items of $10,444,000. The decrease in working capital was mainly due to a decrease in accounts receivable and other current assets of $8,281,000 and a decrease in inventories of $572,000 which mainly resulted from higher revenues and a net decrease in account payables and accrued expenses of $1,591,000 which was primarily due to the decrease in accrued expenses and income tax payable.
 
NET CASH FROM INVESTING ACTIVITIES.
 
Net cash used in investing activities was $(4,811,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 compared to $(3,250,000) for the comparative prior period. Net cash used in investing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was primarily due to the acquisition of property and equipment from the company, PACT strategic and PACT Limited totaling $(3,806,000), and a decrease in acquisition of subsidiaries and affiliated companies of $419,000, offset by the release of the restricted cash of $1,420,000, an increase of $353,000 for loan receivables from third parties and an decrease of $2,359,000 for loan receivables from related parties.
 
NET CASH FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $8,805,000, which was mainly due to the proceeds from issuance of convertible debenture of $7,500,000 and the exercise of the share options and warrants of $174,000, an increase in bank loan of $1,152,000 and an increase in loans payable to related party of $4,000 and repurchase of treasury shares of $(124,000), an increase in amount borrowed under capital lease obligations of $77,000 and bank line of credit of $22,000. Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 was $1,521,000 which was primarily a result of an increase in proceeds from exercise of stock options and warrants of $981,000, increase in loans from related party of $513,000, and an increase in amount borrowed under capital lease obligations of $29,000.
 
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

The Company has convertible debt which obligates the Company to file a registration statement with respect to the shares issuable under the convertible debt note. Due to various factors, as of September 30, 2006, the Company had filed the registration statement, but it has not gone effective. Accordingly, the terms of the convertible note obligate the Company to pay liquidated damages to the convertible debenture investors at the rate of 2% of the principal amount of the convertible per month, or $160,000. As of September 30, 2006, the Company has determined to accrue five months of liquidated damages or approximately $800,000, although it is possible that the Company may not ultimately need to pay the full amount of liquidated damages. The amount has been reflected in the consolidated financial statements as a separate line item on the consolidated balance sheet as “liquidated damages liability” and as a separate line item on the consolidated statement of operations as “liquidated damages expense”.

We have significant cash resources to meet our contractual obligations as of September 30, 2006, as detailed below:

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS.
 
We had no off-balance sheet guarantees, interest rate swap transactions or foreign currency forward contracts. We did not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts during the third quarter of 2006.
 
INFLATION.  Inflation has not had a material impact on the Company’s business in recent years.

CURRENCY EXCHANGE FLUCTUATIONS. All of the Company's revenues are denominated either in U.S. dollars or Hong Kong dollars, while its expenses are denominated primarily in Hong Kong dollars and Renminbi ("RMB"), the currency of the People's Republic of China. The value of the RMB-to-U.S. dollar or Hong Kong dollar-to-United States dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions. Since 1994, the conversion of Renminbi into foreign currencies, including U.S. dollars, has been based on rates set by the People's Bank of China, which are set daily based on the previous day's interbank foreign exchange market rates and current exchange rates on the world financial markets. Since 1994, the official exchange rate generally has been stable. Recently there has been increased political pressure on the Chinese government to decouple the RMB from the United States dollar. Although a devaluation of the Hong Kong dollar or RMB relative to the United States dollar would likely reduce the Company's expenses (as expressed in United States dollars), any material increase in the value of the Hong Kong dollar or RMB relative to the United States dollar would increase the Company's expenses, and could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company has never engaged in currency hedging operations and has no present intention to do so.
 
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK. Credit risk represents the accounting loss that would be recognized at the reporting date if counterparties failed completely to perform as contracted. Concentrations of credit risk (whether on or off balance sheet) that arise from financial instruments exist for groups of customers or counterparties when they have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions as described below:

 
·
The Company’s business is characterized by rapid technological change, new product and service development, and evolving industry standards and regulations. Inherent in the Company’s business are various risks and uncertainties, including the impact from the volatility of the stock market, limited operating history, uncertain profitability and the ability to raise additional capital.

 
·
All of the Company’s revenue is derived from Asia and Greater China. Changes in laws and regulations, or their interpretation, or the imposition of confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, devaluations of currency or the nationalization or other expropriation of private enterprises could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 
·
If the Company is unable to derive any revenue from Greater China, it would have a significant, financially disruptive effect on the normal operations of the Company.
 
34


A substantial portion of the operations of business operations depend on mobile telecommunications operators {operators) in China and any loss or deterioration of such relationship may result in severe disruptions to their business operations and the loss of a significant portion of the Company’s revenue. The VIEs rely entirely on the networks and gateways of these operators to provide its wireless value-added services. Specifically these operators are the only entities in China that have platforms for wireless value-added services. The Company’s agreements with these operators are generally for a period of less than one year and generally do not have automatic renewal provisions. If neither of them is willing to continue to cooperate with the Company, it would severely affect the Company’s ability to conduct its existing wireless value-added services business.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS). Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net earnings and other gains (losses) affecting stockholders’ equity that, under generally accepted accounting principles are excluded from net earnings in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. Additionally, the translation adjustment is recorded as component of comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity section of balance sheet.

SEASONALITY AND QUARTERLY FLUCTUATIONS Several of our businesses experience fluctuations in quarterly performance. Traditionally, the first quarter from January to March is a low season for our call center business due to the long Lunar New Year holidays in China. Revenue and income from operations for the call center and VAS tend to be higher in the fourth quarter due to special holiday promotions. Internet/Direct Commerce revenue also tends to be higher in the fourth quarter due to increased consumer spending during that period. Revenue from the VAS and IVR segment can vary from quarter to quarter due to new product launches and the seasonality of certain product lines.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS 

We are exposed to various market risks arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as foreign exchange fluctuations and interest rates, which could impact our results of operations and financial position. We do not currently engage in any hedging or other market risk management tools, and we do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk. Fluctuations in the rate of exchange between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies, primarily the Hong Dollar and the Chinese Renminbi, could adversely affect our financial results. Approximately all of our sales are denominated in foreign currencies. We expect that foreign currencies will continue to represent a similarly significant percentage of our sales in the future. Selling, marketing and administrative costs related to these sales are largely denominated in the same respective currency, thereby mitigating our transaction risk exposure. We therefore believe that the risk of a significant impact on our operating income from foreign currency fluctuations is not substantial. However, for sales not denominated in U.S. dollars, if there is an increase in the rate at which a foreign currency is exchanged for U.S. dollars, it will require more of the foreign currency to equal a specified amount of U.S. dollars than before the rate increase. In such cases and if we price our products in the foreign currency, we will receive less in U.S. dollars than we did before the rate increase went into effect. If we price our products in U.S. dollars and competitors price their products in local currency, an increase in the relative strength of the U.S. dollar could result in our price not being competitive in a market where business is transacted in the local currency. All of our sales denominated in foreign currencies are denominated in the Hong Dollar and the Chinese Renminbi. Our principal exchange rate risk therefore exists between the U.S. dollar and these two currencies. Fluctuations from the beginning to the end of any given reporting period result in the re-measurement of our foreign currency-denominated receivables and payables, generating currency transaction gains or losses that impact our non-operating income/expense levels in the respective period and are reported in other (income) expense, net in our combined consolidated financial statements. We do not currently hedge our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We may, however, hedge such exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the future.

Interest Rate Risk.    Changes in interest rates may affect the interest paid (or earned) and therefore affect our cash flows and results of operations. We are exposed to interest rate change risk with respect to our subsidiary, Epros’ credit facility with a commercial lender. However, we do not believe that this interest rate change risk is significant.

BUSINESS

We were incorporated in the state of Delaware in 1987. We are a leading provider of CRM and telecom services, ecommerce and gaming technology in China. Our business consists of three groups, all of which operate within the outsourcing and telecommunications industries in Asia, primarily greater China, which includes the People's Republic of China (PRC), or mainland China, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR), Macau Special Administrative Region, and Taiwan and one group that focuses on primarily administrative and corporate related matters. Through our subsidiaries we provide outsourcing services, telecom (VAS) services, and products (telecom & gaming) services. Our business process outsourcing (BPO) services include call centers providing customer relationship management (CRM) and telemarketing services, and our information technology outsourcing (ITO) includes software programming and development. We are value-added resellers and providers of telecom VAS, which comprises interactive voice response (IVR) systems, call center management systems, and VOIP, as well as mobile phone VAS, such as short messaging services (SMS) and multimedia messaging services (MMS). In 2004, we commenced our communication products distribution service, through wholesale and, to a lesser extent, retail sale and distribution of mobile phones, software and hardware, mobile accessories, and calling cards in Hong Kong and China. In 2005, we invested Take1Technologies (Cheer Era), a company that designs, manufactures, and distributes multimedia interactive self-service kiosks, bingo and gaming machines for the casino and slot machine operators Europe and Asia.

In August 2006, PacGames completed the acquisition of 100% of Able Entertainment Technology Ltd., a leading provider of Asian multi-player electronic gaming machines, gaming technology solutions and gaming related maintenance, IT and distribution services for the leading hotel, casino and slot hall operators based in Macau, China and other Asian gaming markets. Macau is expected to surpass Las Vegas in total revenues by 2006. Currently, table games make up the bulk of Macau casino revenues, which is in sharp contrast to other areas such as Las Vegas. With this acquisition, PacGames is a leading developer of electronic versions of these popular table games which are less expensive to run resulting in higher casino profits with great appeal to the mass market players. Further, the growing market in Macau is for Asian table games such as Baccarat, Roulette, Fan Tan, Fish-Prawn-Crab and Sic-Bo Cussec as these games have wider acceptance in the Asian market than Western games such as poker or slots. The development, manufacturing, maintenance, and service of electronic Asian table games are underserved areas which are predicted to grow considerably as Macau's gaming market matures. PacGames products include multi-play electronic gaming machines such as Baccarat, Fish-Prawn-Crab, Sib-Bo Cussec, Roulette, and Video Lottery Terminals (VLT) such as Keno and Bingo, as well as other traditional slot machines. We intend to continue to grow our business by acquiring and managing growing technology and network communications businesses with established products and customers in Asia.  

Our BPO services generate revenue from call center services, call center management software sales, and training and consulting. We invoice our call center clients monthly at per seat monthly rates, a base price plus commission per call, or a per hour charge rate, depending on the client's preference. Our call center software clients pay per license, for which there is usually a one-time charge on sale of the software and annual maintenance fees for service. We charge per project for our consulting and training services and for our telecom VAS, which are invoiced throughout the project. Our telecom VAS often includes a post-sale service contract for systems integration and consulting services for which we bill separately. Our communication products such as calling cards, kiosks and cell phones are sold cash-on-delivery. Our gaming center operations generate revenue through the sale of gaming machines to casinos, or through resellers who sell to casinos. Currently we do not consolidate gaming operations as we do not currently hold a controlling interest in the gaming operations, but a 45% interest.

Our clients include the leading telecom operators, banks, insurance, travel, marketing, and service companies, as well as telecom consumers, in Greater China. Clients include China Telecom, China Netcom, China Mobile, China Unicom, PCCW, Hutchison Telecom, CSL, SmarTone, Sunday, Swire Travel, Coca-Cola, SONY, Samsung, Motorola, Nokia, TNT Express, Huawei, TCL, Dun & Bradstreet, American Express, Bank of China, DBS, Hong Kong Government, and Hongkong Post. PacificNet employs over 2,300 staff in our various subsidiaries in China with offices in Hong Kong, Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou.

Our operations include the following four groups:
 
(1) Outsourcing Services: includes Business Process Outsourcing (BPO), call center, IT Outsourcing (ITO) and software development services.

(2) Telecom Value-added Services: includes Content Providing (CP), Interactive Voice Response (IVR), Platform Providing (PP) and Service Providing (SP).

OUR ACQUISITION MODEL FOR TELECOM VALUE- ADDED SERVICES COMPANIES IN CHINA

CORPORATE OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE

Set forth below is an illustration of our acquisition model using Clickcom as an example.

PRC laws and regulations restrict us, as a foreign entity, from having a direct controlling interest in entities such as Dianxun-DE Sunroom-DE, Wanrong-DE, and Imobile-DE that hold operating licenses to engage in domestic telecom value-added services and online ecommerce in China. As a result, we conduct substantially all of our operations through Clickcom-WOFE, Guangzhou3G-WOFE, Wanrong-WOFE and Imobile-WOFE. We own 51% of the shares in each of the WOFEs. Clickcom-WOFE, Guangzhou3G-WOFE, Wanrong-WOFE and Imobile-WOFE each signed Consulting and Services Agreements respectively with Dianxun-DE Sunroom-DE Wanrong-DE and Imobile-DE (the entities that actually carry out the operating activities). These agreements provide that all of the DE profits will flow through to the respective WOFEs. Pursuant to these agreements, we guarantee any obligations undertaken by these companies under their contractual agreements with third parties, and we are entitled to receive service fees in an amount equal to 51% of the net income of these companies. Accordingly, we bear the risks of, and enjoy the rewards associated with, the investments in Clickcom-WOFE, Guangzhou3G-WOFE, Wanrong-WOFE and Imobile-WOFE . The operations of DEs are managed by their original management teams. We do not put our own management in place, nor do we integrate current management of the DEs with management from other subsidiaries. According to the operating agreements between the DEs and WOFEs, each DEs board of directors has the power to appoint the General Manager of the DE who in turn has the power to appoint other members of the management. We do not directly participate in the daily operations DE, however, we have the power to appoint or change directors and senior management because PacificNet indirectly ultimately controls the voting power of the shareholders of each DE through the Power of Attorney given to our President, Mr. Victor Tong.

In the opinion of our internal PRC legal counsel, the ownership structures of, and contractual agreements between Clickcom-WOFE, Guangzhou3G-WOFE, Wanrong-WOFE and Imobile-WOFE with Dianxun-DE Sunroom-DE Wanrong-DE and Imobile-DE, respectively, and their shareholders, and the businesses and operations of the DEs as, respectively, described in this Annual Report, comply with all existing PRC laws, rules and regulations and are fully enforceable in accordance with their terms and conditions. In addition, our internal PRC legal counsel is of the opinion that no consent, approval or license, other than those already obtained, is required under any of the existing PRC laws, rules and regulations for the effectiveness and enforceability of the ownership structures, contractual agreements and businesses and operations of the WOFEs and those DE’s. However, there may be uncertainties regarding the interpretation and implementation of current PRC laws and regulations. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Our Business.”

BUSINESS OPERATIONS OF THE WOFES

The business of each of Clickcom, Guangzhou3G, Wanrong and Imobile WOFE’s are conducted through a series of contractual agreements with their affiliated PRC-incorporated Domestic Enterprise (DE) value-added service (VAS) or ecommerce providers, Dianxun-DE, Sunroom-DE, Wanrong-DE and Imobile-DE, respectively, and their respective shareholders. We do not have any ownership interests in Dianxun-DE, Sunroom-DE, Wanrong-DE and Imobile-DE.

WIRELESS DATA SERVICES

Dianxun-DE, Sunroom-DE and Wanrong-DE have established cooperation arrangements with mobile telecommunications operators, mobile phone producers and other wireless data service providers in the wireless VAS business. They provide wireless data services through China Mobile’s Monternet and China Unicom’s UNI-Info platforms pursuant to revenue sharing agreements that they have entered into with these mobile telecommunications operators. These services include color ring back tone (CRBT) services, background music (BGM) services, VICQ mobile instant messaging services, sports and soccer news, weather forecasts, stock prices, jokes, short stories, dramas, songs and mobile karaoke, mobile TV, games and entertainment.

China Mobile and China Unicom control the two mobile telecommunications networks through which all wireless data services are currently provided to mobile phone users in China. Close working relationships with China Mobile and China Unicom are critical to the operation and continued development of wireless data services business. See “Risk Factors — Risks Relating to Our Business.” A substantial portion of Dianxun-DE, Sunroom-DE and Wanrong-DE business depends on mobile telecommunications operators in China, and any loss or deterioration of such relationship may result in severe disruptions to their business operations and the loss of a significant portion of our revenue. As of the end of 2005, Dianxun-DE, Sunroom-DE and Wanrong-DE had entered into approximately 25 cooperation and revenue sharing agreements with various provincial subsidiaries of China Mobile, as well as China Unicom, to provide wireless data services to mobile phone users, to research and develop new wireless data technologies and to promote the use of wireless data services in China.

Dianxun-DE, Sunroom-DE and Wanrong-DE established the fees for data services in consultation with telecommunications operators in China. They share the revenue from these fees with the telecommunications operators, content providers and mobile phone producers. They also pay a transmission fee to the appropriate telecommunications operator with respect to messages that they send through its value-added services platform.

The mobile telecommunications operators establish standards within which wireless data services providers are able to set the fees for their services. These standards are filed with the Ministry of Information Industry by the mobile telecommunications operators. In accordance with these standards, they charge the users content fees on either a per-message or a monthly subscription basis. Both per-message and monthly subscription content fees vary for the different wireless data products and services.

WIRELESS INTERACTIVE VOICE RESPONSE (IVR) SERVICES

In May 2003, China Mobile launched its wireless IVR services nationwide. Mobile phone users access Sunroom-DE’s wireless IVR services through China Mobile’s network. Sunroom-DE’s wireless IVR services include weather forecasts, stock prices, jokes, short stories, dramas, songs and other entertainment topics, as well as community-oriented services, such as chat and dating services.

We believe that demand for wireless IVR services in China, like demand for other wireless value-added services, has been driven by the rapid increase in mobile phone ownership, the rise in average income and the emergence of a youth culture that rapidly adopts new modes of affordable entertainment.

CONSULTING AND SERVICE AGREEMENTS

The Consulting and Service Agreement signed between each WOFE and their respective DE is similar. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the WOFE (“Party A”) agrees to be the exclusive provider of telecom consulting services to the DE (“Party B”““). During the term of the agreement, Party B shall not accept technical and consulting services provided by any third party. Party B agrees to pay a fee to Party A equal to 100% of its monthly net income for the services provided. Payment of the service fees has been secured through a share pledge agreement with the shareholders of each of the DEs, whereby they pledged all of their shares to the respective WOFE. In addition, each of the shareholders of the DEs has granted to our President, Mr. Victor Tong, a Power of Attorney which gives him the full power and authority to exercise all of the rights of the shareholders of the DEs.

(1) Each of the DEs, by design, is thinly capitalized because a substantial portion of PacificNet’s invested amounts or consideration were paid or payable directly to previous owners of Sunroom-DE and Dianxun-DE for entering into the acquisition transactions while none of the investment consideration was injected into the DEs. Therefore, additional funding from PacificNet is needed to support the DEs’ business development and working capital.

(2) Fees from Service Contracts - Fees from these service contracts are substantial, but are not commensurate with the level of service provided by the WOFEs to the DEs. The contractual and funding arrangements with the DEs evidence that PacificNet has closely participated in the majority of the DEs’ economics. PacificNet is the primary beneficiary through its WOFE subsidiaries since PacificNet is the only enterprise with a sufficiently large interest in the VIEs. Accordingly, we conclude that going forward PacificNet should consolidate the DEs’ financial interests.

BUSINESS OPERATION HIGHLIGHTS OF 2005

During the three months ended December 31, 2005, we continued to win business from high-profile Chinese and multinational companies conducting business in China such as China Mobile, China Unicom, China Telecom, Bank of China, Ping An Insurance, TCL, TNT Express, Watsons, Hutchison. All of our business units remain strong, and we continue to focus on penetrating the CRM and VAS/IVR markets through organic growth and by acquisition. With the launch of the ‘iPACT’ IVR-Alliance program, we hope to sign up new local IVR service providers to join our unified brand and strong IVR content and service offerings, under a chain of unified service standard under the iPACT brand. We look forward to revenue growth, market share improvement, and stronger partnerships with all the major telecom operators and local IVR service providers in China. With business activity increasing across all of our units, we are excited about the prospects for the Company in the coming quarters. We believe that our fundamentals are stronger than ever and that market opportunities for sustainable growth and profitability in China’s CRM and VAS sector are vast. The following are some of the highlights of 2005:

In January, Watsons Water selected PacificNet Epro’s WISE-xb Multimedia Contact Center System as its customer services initiative for its customer services center.

42


In January, PacificNet Linkhead, a leading provider of interactive voice response (IVR), voice chatline, mobile QQ, and other voice based value-added services in China, launched the Color Ring-back Tone (CRBT) services for China Unicom (NYSE:CHU) in Shandong and Henan. We partnered with North Tech, a leading system integrator and channel partner, in deploying the customized Color Ring-back Tone (CRBT) service for China Unicom Henan Province, with over 200,000 users based on both CDMA and GSM networks. With the CRBT service (“Cai-Ling”), subscribers can customize the ring tone from a wide selection of commercial music, personalized messages, celebrity greetings, or voice advertisements to replace the monotonous ring connecting tone that the caller would hear.

In February, we successfully deployed WISE-xb Interactive Voice Response System (IVRS) Contact Center Solution for TNT Hong Kong, a division of TPG NV and the world’s leading business to business express delivery company, as TNT’s key customer relationship management (CRM) initiative to enhance its customer services.

In March, we expanded our operations by acquiring entities that operate as service providers in the VAS & IVR industries, which have grown rapidly in China in recent years and to further develop products and services organically. On the acquisition front, the purchase of Guangzhou 3G Information Technology Co. Ltd. in April was a significant event. We purchased a 51% controlling interest, which is expected to help expand PacificNet’s value-added service coverage to all of China through Guangzhou 3G’s experienced operation team of 280 staff and sales offices in 26 provinces in China. Guangzhou 3G is one of the largest value-added telecom and information services providers in China with both voice and data connections to the four major telecom operators (China Mobile, China Unicom, China Telecom, and ChinaNetcom), covering both mobile and fixed-line networks.

In April, we were selected by Ping An Insurance (“Ping An”), the second largest life insurance company in China, to provide CRM consulting and call center training services to Ping An’s main customer service center located in Suzhou with 300 seats and 500 customer service representatives.

In April, we have formed an alliance with the largest Call Center in Japan, under which we became designated agent for Bellsystem24, Inc. in China and Hong Kong. Bellsystem24 is Japan’s largest telemarketing, call center and CRM services company with over 4,300 clients, 22,135 communication service representatives, 9,500 workstations, 160 system engineers, and 31 offices in Japan.

In June, we formed a partnership with Epicor Software Corporation (NASDAQ:EPIC), a recognized global leader of software solutions for middle-market companies, to provide Customer Relationship Management (CRM) for Chinese companies.

In July, we announced the launch of a new IVR-Alliance program called “iPACT” at the 2005 Voice Value-Added Service (VAS) Conference. Under this iPACT program, PacificNet plans to sign up qualified Voice-VAS and IVR service providers as profit sharing members in China under a unified brand “iPACT”. PacificNet will provide to qualified VAS-Alliance partners, on a profit sharing basis, all of the hardware, software, application, and content for VAS, including a variety of IVR and other wireless and fixed-line VAS content. Mobile and fixed-line phone users can access PacificNet’s VAS-Alliance services through Guangzhou 3G presence in 26 provinces in China.

In August, PacificNet Clickcom, reached an agreement with China Unicom’s Guangdong Branch to launch a new Mobile Mailbox Service called “UMAIL” for Unicom’s CDMA users on its WAP Portal website. Guangdong is one of the largest and most affluent provinces in China and represents a significant opportunity for PacificNet to offer value-added telecom services. As of June 2005, China Unicom has 30.47 million CDMA users and 8.5 million WAP users nationwide. China Unicom’s CDMA users in Guangdong may go to its WAP Portal, enter UMAIL service, and be able to send and receive e-mail by mobile phone.

In October, PacificNet Epro acquired a 70% ownership interest in Guangzhou JunFeng Network Technology Co. Ltd. (JunFeng). The acquisition is expected to be additive to Epro’s 2006 earnings.

In November, PacificNet Linkhead was awarded an open project tender by Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (“ICBC”), the largest commercial bank in China with over 21,000 domestic branches, to develop its integrated IVR telephone banking system.

In December, we continued to win high-profile government and private sector projects. We won a project tender by the City of Guangzhou, one of the largest and most affluent cities in China, to develop an Internet and intranet based e-business platform for Guangzhou Metro.

The consideration to be paid follows:
 
  (1)  
The purchase consideration for 80% of the equity interest of the Company is payable entirely (100%) in restricted shares of PACT, equivalent to 200,000 restricted PACT shares.

CAPITAL RAISING TRANSACTIONS
 
Private Placement of Convertible Debentures and Warrants

On March 13, 2006, we completed a private placement in which we sold $8,000,000 in convertible debentures and issued warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 400,000 shares of common stock. The debentures are convertible at any time into shares of our common stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $10.00 per share, subject to adjustments for certain dilutive events. The debentures are due March 13, 2009. The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years at an exercise price of $12.20 per share. At the closing of the private placement, we prepaid the first year’s interest on the debentures equal to 5% of the aggregate principal amount of debentures. We will pay interest in cash or shares, provided that certain conditions are met, at the rate of 6% for the second year the debentures are outstanding and then 7% for the third. Beginning January 1, 2007, we are obligated to redeem $320,000 every month, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties. We also have the option to prepay at any time, provided that certain conditions have been met, after the 12 month anniversary of the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is part, some or all of the outstanding debentures for cash in an amount equal to 120% of the principal amount outstanding, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties outstanding. At any time after the six month anniversary of the effective date, we may force the holders to convert up to 50% of the then outstanding principal amount of the debentures, subject to certain trading conditions being met. If any event of default occurs under the debentures or other related documents, the holders may elect to accelerate the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the debenture, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties, which shall become immediately due and payable.

44


Under the terms of the registration rights agreement, dated February 28, 2006, entered into among the Company and the holders, we are obligated to register for resale 150% of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the debentures and the warrants, and interest on the convertible debentures. We are currently in default under the private placement transaction documents for the untimely filing of the registration statement, of which this prospectus is part, and for the failure to have the registration statement declared effective prior to the effectiveness date set forth in the registration rights agreement. As of November 1, 2006, we could be liable for liquidated damages of approximately $800,000 as a result of the foregoing. As of the date of this prospectus, we paid $35,000 in liquidated damages to one holder. As of the date of this prospectus, the holders have not elected to accelerate the payment of the outstanding principal and interest owing on the debenture.

Also in connection with the private placement, Messrs. Tony Tong, Victor Tong and Shaojian Wang and Sino Mart Management Ltd., and its sole officer and director, Mr. Cho Sam Tong, entered into lock-up agreements restricting the disposition of shares of our common stock benefically owned by them until the earlier of 30 days from the effective date of the registration statement, or February 28, 2008.

Messrs. Tony and Victor Tong, Wang and Sino Mart Management Ltd. each executed letter agreements to the holders of the convertible debentures and warrants, in which they each agreed to vote all of the shares of the Company over which they have voting control in favor of any resolutions presented to the stockholders of the Company to approve the issuance, in the aggregate, of more than 19.999% of the number of shares of common stock of the Company outstanding on the closing date of the private placement. They executed each letter agreement in consideration of, and as a condition to the consummation of the private placement.

C.E. Unterberg, Towbin LLC acted as Placement Agent and received a cash fee in the amount of $449,500 and a warrant to purchase up to 16,000 shares. Maxim Group also acted as Placement Agent and received a cash fee in the amount of $50,000.

SALES AND MARKETING

We do not engage in any significant marketing activities. We advertise our services by attending various CRM and VAS trade shows and conferences in China. There are a limited number of competitors in our industry; accordingly, new business opportunities are generated mainly through business contacts and by word of mouth. We rely on our reputation for quality and efficiency among our customers and leveraging our strategic investors to obtain new business.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

We operate our business in China under a legal regime that consists of the State Council, which is the highest authority of the executive branch of the PRC central government, and several ministries and agencies under its leadership, including:

 
·
the Ministry of Information Industry (MII);

 
·
the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC);

 
·
the Ministry of Culture;

 
·
the General Administration of Press and Publication of the P.R. China;

 
·
the State Copyright Bureau;

 
·
the State Administration of Industry and Commerce (SAIC);

 
·
the Ministry of Public Security; and

 
·
the Ministry of Commerce.

The State Council and these ministries and agencies have issued a series of rules that regulate a number of different substantive areas of our business, which are discussed below.

FOREIGN OWNERSHIP RESTRICTION ON BUSINESSES ENGAGED IN PROVIDING INTERNET CONTENT

PRC regulations currently limit foreign ownership of companies that provide Internet content services to 50%. This limitation extends to our IVR, call center and telecom VAS and to our business of providing financial information and data to Internet users. To comply with this foreign ownership restriction, with respect to our Internet content services, we operate our website in China through Shenzhen DongFang Digital Port Technology Development Company Limited (“““DongFang Digital”““), which is 59% owned by Mr. Wang Wen Ming, the Chairman and CEO of ChinaGoHi, who is a PRC citizen. Under PRC law, we cannot hold the licenses and obtain the approvals necessary to operate the website because those licenses and approvals can not be held by foreign entities or majority foreign-owned entities. Furthermore, because Lion Zone and ChinaGoHi are wholly owned foreign enterprises, they cannot hold such licenses or obtain the approvals.

There are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of current or future PRC laws and regulations with respect to our acquisition model. In the opinion of our in-house PRC legal counsel, our current ownership structure, the contractual arrangements among our wholly owned subsidiaries and the operating company and their shareholders comply with all existing applicable PRC laws, rules and regulations. We cannot assure that the PRC regulatory authorities will not ultimately take a view that is contrary to the opinion of our PRC legal counsel. If the PRC government finds that the agreements that establish the structure of our operations in China do not comply with PRC government restrictions on foreign investment in our industry, we could be subject to severe penalties.

48


LICENSES AND PERMITS

There are a number of aspects of our business which require us to obtain licenses from a variety of PRC regulatory authorities. For example, in order to host our website, DongFang Digital is required to hold an Internet content provider, or ICP, license issued by the Ministry of Information Industry or its local offices. DongFang Digital currently holds an ICP license issued by Ministry of Information Industry Guangdong department. Each ICP license holder that provides analysis and research information relating to stocks and other securities must obtain a securities advisory permit from China Securities Regulatory Commission, or the CSRC. Our subsidiary ChinaGoHi currently holds a securities advisory permit, which allows it to operate in securities investment consultancy service. We also receive securities analysis and research information from other licensed securities advisors that hold securities advisory permits, and we have disclosed on our websites, reports, and in our software the sources of such information as required by the CSRC.

A recent regulation issued by the Ministry of Information Industry requires short message, or SMS, content providers to obtain an SMS license from the Ministry of Information Industry or its local offices. DongFang Digital has obtained the required SMS license for the delivery of our financial short message content. Furthermore, the Ministry of Information Industry has promulgated rules requiring ICP license holders that provide online bulletin board services to register with, or obtain an approval from, the relevant telecommunications authorities. DongFang Digital has obtained such approval from Guangdong Communications Administration, the government agency in charge of this matter in Guangdong and Shenzhen.

REGULATION OF INTERNET CONTENT

The PRC government has promulgated measures relating to Internet content through a number of ministries and agencies, including the Ministry of Information Industry, the Ministry of Culture and the State Press and Publications Administration. These measures specifically prohibit Internet activities that result in the publication of any content which is found to, among other things, propagate obscenity, gambling or violence, instigate crimes, undermine public morality or the cultural traditions of the PRC, or compromise State security or secrets. If an ICP license holder violates these measures, the PRC government may revoke its ICP license and shut down its websites. DongFang Digital’s ICP license expressly states that it is not allowed to publish news, among other things, in relation to its Internet content provision. Specifically, Shenzhen, Beijing and Guangzhou branches of the General Administration of Press and Publication of the PRC, the government authority regulating news publication, confirmed with us that so long as we do not provide general news on politics, society or culture, or establish a “news column,” or provide such information under express heading of “news,” we are not required to obtain a license to publish financial or economic related news content.

REGULATION OF INFORMATION SECURITY

Internet content in China is also regulated and restricted by the PRC government to protect State security. The National People’s Congress, China’s national legislative body, has enacted a law that may subject to criminal punishment in China any effort to: (1) gain improper entry into a computer or system of strategic importance; (2) disseminate politically disruptive information; (3) leak State secrets; (4) spread false commercial information; or (5) infringe intellectual property rights.

The Ministry of Public Security has promulgated measures that prohibit use of the Internet in ways which, among other things, result in a leakage of State secrets or a spread of socially destabilizing content. The Ministry of Public Security has supervision and inspection rights in this regard and we may be subject to the jurisdiction of the local security bureaus. If an ICP license holder violates these measures, the PRC government may revoke its ICP license and shut down its websites.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS

The State Council and the State Copyright Bureau have promulgated various regulations and rules relating to protection of software in China. Under these regulations and rules, software owners, licensees and transferees should register their rights in software with the State Copyright Bureau or its local offices and obtain software copyright registration certificates. Although such registration is not mandatory under PRC law, software owners, licensees and transferees are encouraged to go through the registration process. Therefore persons with registered software rights may receive better protection. We have registered all of our self-developed software with the State Copyright Bureau.

PRC law requires owners of Internet domain names to register their domain names with qualified domain name registration agencies approved by the Ministry of Information Industry and obtain a registration certificate from such registration agencies. A registered domain name owner has an exclusive use right over its domain name. Unregistered domain names may not receive proper legal protections and may be misappropriated by unauthorized third parties. Our primary domain names, www.ChinaGoHi.cn and www.GHGC.cn are registered with CNNIC, a domain name registration agency approved by the Ministry of Information Industry. In addition, we have registered another domain name, www.FMM88.com, with the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, or ICANN, an internationally organized, non-profit corporation that has responsibility for Internet Protocol (IP) address space allocation.

49


PRIVACY PROTECTION

PRC law does not prohibit Internet content providers from collecting and analyzing personal information from their users. On our website, our users are required to accept a user agreement whereby they agree to provide certain personal information to us. PRC law prohibits Internet content providers from disclosing to any third parties any information transmitted by users through their networks unless otherwise permitted by law. If an Internet content provider violates these regulations, the Ministry of Information Industry or its local offices may impose penalties and the Internet content provider may be liable for damages caused to its users.

ADVERTISING REGULATION

PRC law requires entities conducting advertising activities to obtain an advertising permit from the SAIC’s local offices. Entities conducting advertising activities without such permit may be charged a fine or imposed other penalties by the SAIC’s local offices. Currently, foreign investors cannot own more than 70% equity interest in an advertising agency in China. DongFang Digital holds an advertising permit.

COMPETITION

We expect competition to persist and intensify in the future. Our competitors include small firms offering specific applications, divisions of large entities and large independent firms. A number of competitors have or may develop greater capabilities and resources than ours. We face the risk that new competitors with greater resources than ours will enter our market. Our competitors are mainly leaders in the CRM and VAS markets. Competitive pressures from current or future competitors could cause our services to lose market acceptance or require a significant reduction in the price of our services.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

General

The following description of our securities does not purport to be complete and is subject in all respects to applicable Delaware law and to the provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws. Our current authorized capital stock consists of 125,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share, of which 14,008,497 shares were issued and 11,671,836 were outstanding as of November 17, 2006, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.0001 per share, none of which were issued and outstanding as of October 26, 2006.

Common Stock

The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders. The holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends ratably when, as and if declared by the board of directors out of funds legally available therefore. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the holders of common stock are entitled to share equally and ratably in all assets remaining available for distribution after payment of liabilities and after provision is made for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock.

The holders of common stock, as such, have no conversion, preemptive, or other subscription rights and there are no redemption provisions applicable to the common stock. All of the outstanding shares of common stock are validly issued, fully-paid and nonassessable.

Convertible Debentures

On March 13, 2006, we entered into a securities purchase agreement in connection with the private placement in which we sold $8,000,000 in convertible debentures and issued warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 400,000 shares of common stock. The debentures are due March 13, 2009. The debentures are convertible at any time into shares of our common stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $10.00 per share, subject to adjustments for certain dilutive events. At the closing of the private placement we prepaid the first year’s interest on the debentures equal to 5% of the aggregate principal amount of debentures. We will pay interest in cash or shares, provided that certain conditions are met, at the rate of 6% for the second year the debentures are outstanding and then 7% for the third. Beginning January 1, 2007, we are obligated to redeem $320,000 every month, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties. We also have the option to prepay, provided that certain conditions have been met, after the 12 month anniversary of the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is part, some or all of the outstanding debentures for cash in an amount equal to 120% of the principal amount outstanding, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties outstanding. At any time after the six month anniversary of the effective date, we may force the holders to convert up to 50% of the then outstanding principal amount of the debentures, subject to certain trading conditions being met.

Under the terms of the debenture, as long as 20% of the original aggregate principal amount of the debentures are outstanding, without the prior written consent of holders of the debentures who at such time hold a principal amount that is more than $50,000, we are not permitted to: (i) incur additional indebtedness or liens, (ii) amend our organizational documents, (iii) repurchase our shares of common stock, except as provided for in the debenture, or (iv) pay any dividends on any equity securities.

If an event of default occurs under the debentures or other related documents, the holders may elect to accelerate the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the debenture, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties, which shall become immediately due and payable. The following are some of the events that constitute an event of default under the debenture and related documents (i) our failure to perform our obligations or a breach under the debenture and related agreements, or failure to perform under our other material agreements; (ii) we or our subsidiaries being subject to a bankruptcy event, (iii) failure of our common stock to be eligible for listing or quotation and not eligible to resume listing or quotation within five trading days, (iv) any change of control or agreement to sell or dispose of all or in excess of 33% of our assets; and (v) a monetary judgment, writ or similar final process filed against us or any subsidiary for more than $50,000.

The debentures contain customary anti-dilution protection in the event of a subsequent offering of securities or rights of the company at a price below the current exercise price and provide for additional adjustments in the event of a stock dividend, stock split, or pro rata distribution of indebtedness or assets to our holders of common stock.

PACIFICNET INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Amounts expressed in United States dollars unless otherwise stated)

 
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
Description of Operations - PacificNet Inc. (referred to herein as "PacificNet" or the "Company") a leading provider of CRM and telecom services, ecommerce and gaming technology in Hong Kong, Macao, and China. Through our subsidiaries, PacificNet provides outsourcing services, telecom (VAS) services, products (telecom & gaming) services and the design and distribution of entertainment kiosks and gaming machines. Our business process outsourcing (BPO) services include call centers, providing customer relationship management (CRM), mail order direct marketing and telemarketing services, and our information technology outsourcing (ITO) includes software programming and development. We are also a provider of value-added telecom services in China, which is comprised of interactive voice response (IVR) systems, call center management systems, and voice over Internet protocol (VOIP), short messaging services (SMS), multimedia messaging services (MMS), wireless application protocol (WAP), mobile internet and 3G services. The Company's operations are primarily based in China, including Hong Kong and Macau Special Administrative Region and Asian markets.
 
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting consistent in all material respects with those applied in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2005, but do not include all disclosures required by GAAP. You should read these interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conjunction with the audited financial statements, including the notes thereto, and the other information set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2005. The condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PacificNet Inc. and its subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s interim results have been reflected. PacificNet’s 2005 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB includes certain definitions and a summary of significant accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with this report. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results. 
 
Use of Estimates - The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
 
2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) 123-R, Share-Based Payment (“SFAS 123(R)”). SFAS 123(R) replaces SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, and supersedes APB Opinion 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123(R) requires, among other things, that all share-based payments to employees, including grants of stock options, be measured based on their grant-date fair value and recognized as expense. Effective January 1, 2006, PacificNet adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective application method. Under this transition method, compensation expense recognized for the quarter September 30, 2006, includes the applicable amounts of: (a) compensation expense of all stock-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006 (based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123 and previously presented in pro forma footnote disclosures), and (b) compensation expense for all stock-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006 (based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the new provisions of SFAS 123(R)). Results for periods prior to January 1, 2006, have not been restated. See Note 6 for further details.
 
F-8

In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments—an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140 (“SFAS 155”). This statement amends SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“SFAS 133”), and SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities and resolves issues addressed in SFAS 133 Implementation Issue No. D1, “Application of Statement 133 to Beneficial Interest in Securitized Financial Assets.” This Statement: (a) permits fair value re-measurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation; (b) clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to the requirements of SFAS 133; (c) establishes a requirement to evaluate beneficial interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation; (d) clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives; and, (e) eliminates restrictions on a qualifying special-purpose entity’s ability to hold passive derivative financial instruments that pertain to beneficial interests that are or contain a derivative financial instrument. The standard also requires presentation within the financial statements that identifies those hybrid financial instruments for which the fair value election has been applied and information on the income statement impact of the changes in fair value of those instruments. The Company is required to apply SFAS 155 to all financial instruments acquired, issued or subject to a re-measurement event beginning January 1, 2007, although early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an entity’s fiscal year. The Company is evaluating the provisions of SFAS 155. The effects of adopting of SFAS 155 on the Company’s financial statements are not known at this time.
 
In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This Interpretation requires that the Company recognize in its financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for the Company on January 1, 2007, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle, if any, recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting FIN 48 on its consolidated financial position, cash flows and results of operations.  
 
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”), and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial statements.
 
3. EARNINGS PER SHARE
 
Basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) amounts in the financial statements are computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus dilutive common stock equivalents. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net earnings available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and other dilutive securities. Dilutive EPS for third quarter of 2006 exclude the potential dilutive effect of 889,456 warrants because their impact would be anti-dilutive based on current market prices. 800,000 convertible debentures are tested by using if-converted method. The result shows when convertible debentures are included in the computation, diluted EPS increases. According to SFAS No.128, those convertible debentures are ignored in the computation of diluted EPS. All per share and per share information are adjusted retroactively to reflect stock splits and changes in par value.

Business Acquisitions during the three months ended September 30, 2006

Able Entertainment Technology Ltd by PacificNet Games Limited

On August 3, 2006, PacificNet’s wholly owned subsidiary PacificNet Games Limited (“PacGames”, Chinese Company Name [太平洋网络游戏有榰公司]) completed the acquisition of 100% of Able Entertainment Technology Ltd., a leading gaming technology provider based in the Macau Special Administrative Region of China. Upon completion of this transaction, the Company owned 35% of PacificNet Games Limited. Under the purchase agreement, Able Entertainment Technology Ltd represented that is expects to generate an annual profit of USD$1,600,000 and will provide for an adjustment to the purchase price if PacGames does not achieve an annual net profit of USD$1,600,000 during the first 12-month period ended June 30, 2007, and USD$3,000,000 during the second 12-month period ended June 30, 2008.

The purchase price consideration is 200,000 restricted PACT shares in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Able Entertainment Technology Ltd. or a 35% ownership interest in PacGames. The company has valued the consideration at a price of $5.08, representing the closing market price on August 3, 2006, the date of acquisition. As of September 30, 2006, 40,000 total restricted shares of PacificNet had been issued for the acquisition and 160,000 shares were held back as contingent consideration payable upon completion of certain earnings criteria pursuant to the purchase agreement. The agreement also provides for a loan of up to $1,600,000 on an as-needed basis and as of September 30, 2006, $128,000 was advanced. (See Note 9)
 
On September 22, 2006, PACT acquired another 10% of PacGames in exchange for 57,100 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock. These shares have not been issued as of September 30, 2006.

On March 13, 2006, we repurchased 24,200 restricted shares of our common stock from Yueshen, a subsidiary of Shanghai Classic for a repurchase price of RMB1,000,000 (approximately USD$124,223 using exchange rate of 1USD= 8.05 RMB). The repurchase of the shares was proposed by Yueshen and was unanimously agreed by the both parties.
 
6. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 
Prior to January 1, 2006, PacificNet accounted for awards granted under stock-based compensation plans following the recognition and measurement principles of APB 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. Accordingly, compensation expense was recognized for awards granted at an exercise price less than fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Effective January 1, 2006, PacificNet adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R). See Note 2 for a description of the Company’s adoption of SFAS 123R. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which is consistent with the valuation techniques previously utilized for options in footnote disclosures required under SFAS 123, as amended by FASB Statement No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure.” The determination of the fair value of stock-based compensation awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables, including the expected volatility of the Company’s stock price over the term of the awards, actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. The compensation costs, which approximated $120,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, are recognized on a straight-line base over the option vesting term and the amortized cost is included in selling, general and administrative expenses. PacificNet elected the modified prospective method and therefore has not restated results for prior periods. The valuation provisions of SFAS 123(R) apply to new grants and unvested grants that were outstanding as of the effective date.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2006, the Company granted 500,000 new stock options, 100,000 options were exercised, and zero options were cancelled. See note 5 b) for the status of the Company’s stock option plan.

7. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES
 
On March 13, 2006, we completed a private placement in which we sold $8,000,000 in convertible debentures and issued warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 400,000 shares of common stock. The debentures are convertible at any time into shares of our common stock at an initial fixed conversion price of $10.00 per share, subject to adjustments for certain dilutive events. The debentures are due March 13, 2009. The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years at an exercise price of $12.20 per share. At the closing of the private placement, we prepaid the first year's interest on debentures equal to 5% of the aggregate principal amount of debentures. We will pay interest in cash or shares, provided that certain conditions are met, at the rate of 6% for the second year the debentures are outstanding and then 7% for the third. Beginning January 1, 2007, we are obligated to redeem up to $320,000 every month, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties. We also have the option to prepay the debentures at any time, provided that certain conditions have been met, after the 12 month anniversary of the effective date of the registration statement that has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the common stock issuable upon conversion of the debentures, some or all of the outstanding debentures for cash in an amount equal to 120% of the principal amount outstanding, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties outstanding. At any time after the six month anniversary of the effective date of the registration statement, we may force the holders to convert up to 50% of the then outstanding principal amount of the debentures, subject to certain trading conditions being met. If any event of default occurs under the debentures or other related documents, the holders may elect to accelerate the payment of the outstanding principal amount of the debenture, plus accrued, but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and penalties, which shall become immediately due and payable.
 
F-14

The convertible debt obligates the Company to file a registration statement with respect to the shares issuable under the convertible debt note. Due to various factors, as of September 30, 2006, the Company had not filed such a registration statement. Accordingly, the terms of the convertible note obligate the Company to pay liquidated damages to the convertible debenture investors at the rate of 2% of the principal amount of the convertible per month, or $160,000. As of September 30, 2006, the Company has determined to accrue five months of liquidated damages or approximately $800,000, although it is possible that the Company may not ultimately need to pay the full amount of liquidated damages.  The amount has been reflected in the consolidated financial statements as a separate line item on the consolidated balance sheet as “liquidated damages liability” and as a separate line item on the consolidated statement of operations as “liquidated damages expense”.

Unterberg, Towbin L.L.C. acted as placement agent and received a negotiated cash fee in the amount of $449,500 and a warrant to purchase up to 16,000 shares at an exercise price of $12.20 per share, which expire five years from the date of issuance. The fair value of these warrants totaled $28,952 and such amount was charged to other assets, net, and will be amortized over the life of the debentures and credited to additional paid-in capital during the nine months ended September 30, 2006. Maxim Group also acted as Placement Agent and received a cash fee in the amount of $50,000.
 
In connection with the issuance of the debentures, the Company incurred $1,106,000 of issuance costs, which primarily consisted of investment banker fees, legal and other professional fees. These costs are being amortized and are recorded as additional expense through three years, the scheduled date on which holders have the option to require the Company to repurchase the debentures. Amortization expense related to the issuance costs during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $93,000 and $179,000, respectively. At September 30, 2006, net debt issuance costs associated with the debentures was $927,000 and is recorded in Other assets, net.

The gross proceeds of $8,000,000 are recorded as a debenture liability. In addition, fair values attributed to the Investors’ warrants and to the embedded conversion feature in accordance with EITF issue No. 00-19 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to and Potentially Settled in a Company’s Own Stock” are recorded as liabilities. The debt discount consisted of an initial $690,642 value related to the Investors’ warrants and a $1,145,640 value attributed to the compound embedded derivatives liability, as well as the warrants liability. An aggregate gain of $1,211,583 representing the change in fair value of these derivative liabilities was recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.
 
In accordance with recent FASB guidance, due to certain factors, including a liquidated damages provision in the registration rights agreement, the Company values and accounts for the embedded conversion feature and the warrants related to the debentures as derivatives. Accordingly, these derivative liabilities are measured at fair value with changes in fair value reported in earnings as long as they remain classified as liabilities. The Company reassesses the classification at each balance sheet date. If the classification required under EITF No. 00-19 changes as a result of events during the period, the contract should be reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification.

This loan is collateralized with 106,240 PacificNet shares owned by the shareholder of Yueshen.

Specifically, the Company and the shareholder disagree over the outstanding balance owed and are in ongoing discussions about recovering the loan amount. As the Company still believes that it has a high probability of recovering the debt, it has continued to record the amount of the loan receivable at the full historical cost. Nevertheless, the Company will continue to closely monitor the repayment of the loan.

12. INVENTORY
 
Inventories of approximately $2 million consist primarily of finished goods and represent telecommunication products such as mobile phone, rechargeable phone cards, smart chip, and interactive voice response cards and are accounted for using the first-in, first out (FIFO) method. Most inventories are held by the Company’s Linkhead subsidiary.

In the beginning of the third quarter of 2006, the Chinese government announced that it would implement several new policies regarding mobile phone value-added service providers effective July 10, 2006. These policies include a “double confirmation” policy and the requirement that value-added service providers provide one-month trial subscriptions. By requiring that mobile phone customers “double-confirm” their intention to purchase services, and by requiring free subscriptions, the Chinese government has negatively affected value-added service providers.

Since the Company sells hardware to value-added service providers that have been negatively affected by the new mobile phone policies, during the three months ended September 30, 2006, we recorded an adjustment to inventory of $486,000. The write down was considered prudent after an assessment by the Company’s internal control team determined that the inventory was considered not readily saleable as a result of the recent government policy restrictions.

Although the Chinese government appeared to lessen restrictions by the end of the third quarter, the effect of lesser demand already necessitated a write-down of inventory.

13. INCOME TAXES
 
The Company is registered in the state of Delaware and has operations in primarily three tax jurisdictions - the PRC, Hong Kong and the United States. For operations in the United States of America, Hong Kong and Taiwan, the Company has incurred net accumulated operating loss for income tax purposes. The Company believes that it is more likely than not that these net accumulated operating loss will not be utilized in the future. Therefore, the Company has provided full valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets arising from the losses at these locations as of September 30, 2006. Accordingly, the Company has no net deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2006.

14. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
Stock Option Exercise
 
On October 1, 2006, PacificNet issued 25,000 shares of common stock as a result of stock option exercise in accordance to PacificNet’s stock option plan.

Allink Hong Kong Limited
 
On August 11, 2006, PacificNets wholly owned subsidiary PacificNet Communications Limited (PacCom) agreed to the acquisition of 80% of Allink Hong Kong Limited (Allink, Chinese name “瘺瑑濦晧港有榰公司”), a leading provider of security and surveillance technology and services based in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of China, through the issuance of 200,000 restricted shares of PacificNet Inc. If the transaction is completed, PacificNet Inc. will own 80% of Allink. Under the purchase agreement, Allink has committed to generate an annual profit of HKD$3,000,000 (approx USD$385,000) and will provide for an adjustment to the purchase price if the Allink does not achieve an annual net profit of HKD$3,000,000. Allink operates one of the leading CCTV communication and security surveillance technology and services provider utilizing extra low voltage technology for property management companies in Hong Kong and Macau, China. The transaction was originally expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2006, however since the necessary due diligence has not been completed, the Company has been unable to consummate the merger.

The consideration to be paid follows:
 
  (1)  
The purchase consideration for 80% of the equity interest of the Company is payable entirely (100%) in restricted shares of PACT, equivalent to 200,000 restricted PACT shares.
 
  (2)  
The purchase price is payable upon achievement of certain quarterly earn-out targets based on net profits.

PACIFICNET INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Amounts expressed in United States dollars unless otherwise stated)
 
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
PacificNet Inc. (referred to herein as "PacificNet" or the "Company") was originally incorporated in the State of Delaware on April 8, 1987. Through our subsidiaries we provide outsourcing services, value-added telecom services (VAS) and communication products distribution services. Our business process outsourcing (BPO) services include call centers, providing customer relationship management (CRM), and telemarketing services, and our information technology outsourcing (ITO) includes software programming and development. We are value-added resellers and providers of telecom VAS, which is comprised of interactive voice response (IVR) systems, call center management systems, and voice over Internet protocol (VOIP), as well as mobile phone VAS, such as short messaging services (SMS) and multimedia messaging services (MMS). The Company's operations are primarily targeted in the China and Hong Kong market.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and present the financial statements of the Company and its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries including variable interest entities ("VIEs") for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Investments in entities in which the Company can exercise significant influence, but which are less than majority owned and not otherwise controlled by the Company, are accounted for under the equity method.

The Company has adopted FASB Interpretation No. 46R "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46R"), an Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51. FIN 46R requires a Variable Interest Entity (VIE) to be consolidated by a company if that company is subject to a majority of the risk of loss for the VIE or is entitled to receive a majority of the VIE's residual returns. VIEs are those entities in which the Company, through contractual arrangements, bears the risks of, and enjoys the rewards normally associated with ownership of the entities, and therefore the company is the primary beneficiary of these entities. Acquisitions of subsidiaries or variable interest entities are accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The results of subsidiaries or variable interest entities acquired during the year are included in the consolidated income statements from the effective date of acquisition.

Initial Measurement of VIE — The Company initially measures the assets, liabilities, and non-controlling interests of the VIEs at their fair values at the date of the acquisistions. The excess, if any, of (a) the sum of the fair value of the consideration paid, (b) the reported amount of any previously held interests, and (c) the fair value of the newly consolidated liabilities and noncontrolling interests over (1) the fair value of the newly consolidated identifiable assets and (2) the reported amount of identifiable assets transferred by the primary beneficiary to the variable interest entity shall be reported in the period in which the enterprise becomes the primary beneficiary as: a. Goodwill, if the variable interest entity is a business b. An extraordinary loss, if the variable interest entity is not a business.

ACCOUNTING AFTER INITIAL MEASUREMENT OF VIE - Subsequent accounting for the assets, liabilities, and non-controlling interest of a consolidated variable interest entity are accounted for as if the entity were consolidated based on voting interests and the usual accounting rules for which the VIE operates are applied as they would to a consolidated subsidiary as follows:

·
carrying amounts of the VIE are consolidated into the financial statements of PacificNet as the primary beneficiary (referred as "Primary Beneficiary" or "PB");
 
·
inter-company transactions and balances, such as revenues and costs, receivables and payables between or among the Primary Beneficiary and the VIE(s) are eliminated in their entirety; and
 
·
because there is no direct ownership interest by the Primary Beneficiary in the VIE, equity of the VIE is eliminated with an offsetting credit to minority interest.
 
F-29


PRC laws and regulations restrict us, as a foreign entity, from having a direct controlling interest in entities such as Guangzhou Dianxun Co., Ltd.(Dianxun-DE) and Guangzhou Sunroom Information Industry Co., Ltd.(Sunroom-DE) that hold operating licenses to engage in domestic telecom value-added services and online ecommerce in China. As a result, we conduct substantially all of our operations through Guangzhou Clickcom Digit-net Science(WOFE) and Technology Ltd. and Guangzhou 3G Information Technology Co., Ltd.(WOFE) We own 51% of the shares in each of the WOFEs and each WOFE signed Consulting and Services Agreements with Dianxun-DE and Sunroom-DE (the entities that actually carry out the operating activities). These agreements provide that all of the DE profits will flow through to the respective WOFEs. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company guarantees any obligations undertaken by these companies under their contractual agreements with third parties, and the Company is entitled to receive service fees in an amount equal to 51% of the net income of these companies. Accordingly, we bear the risks of, and enjoy the rewards associated with, the investments in the WOFEs.

The operations of DEs are managed by their original management teams, however, the Company has the power to appoint or change directors and senior management because it indirectly ultimately controls the voting power of the shareholders of each DE through the Power of Attorney given to PacificNet's President according to the operating agreements between the DEs and WOFEs. Pursuant to the Consulting and Service Agreements signed between each WOFE and their respective DE, the WOFE ("Party A") agrees to be the exclusive provider of telecom consulting services to the DE ("Party B"). During the term of the agreement, Party B shall not accept technical and consulting services provided by any third party. Party B agrees to pay a fee to Party A equal to 100% of its monthly net income for the services provided. Payment of the service fees has been secured through a share pledge agreement with the shareholders of each of the DEs, whereby they pledged all of their shares to the respective WOFE. Further, (1) Each of the DEs, by design, is thinly capitalized because a substantial portion of PacificNet's invested amounts or consideration were paid or payable directly to previous owners of Sunroom-DE and Dianxun-DE for entering into the acquisition transactions while none of the investment consideration was injected into the DEs. Therefore, additional funding from PacificNet is needed to support the DEs' business development and working capital. (2) Fees from Service Contracts are substantial, but are not commensurate with the level of service provided by the WOFEs to the DEs. The contractual and funding arrangements with the DEs evidence that PacificNet has closely participated in the majority of the DEs' economics. PacificNet is the primary beneficiary through its WOFE subsidiaries since PacificNet is the only enterprise with a sufficiently large interest in the VIEs. In compliance with PRC's foreign investment restrictions on Internet Content Provider and Value Added Telecom Services Provider's laws and regulations, the Company conducts all of its value-added services for telecom in China via the following significant domestic VIEs below. The respective management agreements between the VIE's and WOFE's create a variable interest and accordingly, these two Vies are consolidated as VIE through their respective WOFEs from the date of acquisition.

The following is a summary of all the VIEs of the Company:

 
·
GuangZhou DianXun Company Limited (the "Dianxun-VIE"), a China company controlled through business agreement. Through Dianxun-VIE, a variable interest entity, PacificNet is able to provide indirectly to China's telecom operators, a wide variety of wireless Internet services for mobile phones, such as SMS, Wireless Application Protocol, or WAP, which allows users to access information instantly via handheld wireless devices, and Java mobile applications. The business of the VIE is managed by their original management teams. Clickcom VIE is owned by Zhang Ming, CEO 60%, Lai Jinnan, COO 30%, Liu Dong, CTO 10% of the Company. The adjusted registered capital of the VIE is $125,000 (the original registered capital of Dianxun-VIE was approx. US$1.25m but was adjusted down to reflect the fair value of NAV at time of acquisition. (See Note 5) . The VIE's board of directors has the power to appoint the General Manager of the VIE who in turn has the power to appoint other members of the management. PacificNet does not directly participate in the daily operation of the VIE. It however has the power to change the management, if needed, because PacificNet is directly or indirectly controlling the board of this VIE. As at the December 31, 2005, Dianxun-VIE's revenues and net earnings accounted for approximately 1.5% and 5.6% of our consolidated revenues and net earnings before minority interests respectively.

 
·
Guangzhou Sunroom Information Industrial Co., Ltd. ("Sunroom-VIE"), a PRC registered domestic enterprise, controlled by PacificNet through a series of contractual agreements. It is responsible for VAS in China under its ICP and VAS licenses. It is 31% owned by Mr. Wang Yongchao (CEO), 41.4% owned by Mr. Liao Mengjiang (COO) and 27.6% owned by non-participating shareholder, Mr. Sun Zhengquan. The registered capital of the VIE Company is $4.0 million. Sunroom-VIE is required to transfer their ownership in these entities to our subsidiaries when permitted by PRC laws and regulations and all voting rights are assigned to us. As of December 31, 2005, Sunroom-VIE's revenues and net loss accounted for approximately 11% and -1.2% of our consolidated revenues and net earnings before minority interests, respectively.
 
The initial capital investments in these VIEs were not funded by us but we have provided loans to these VIEs to fund their R&D and expansion plans. As of December 31, 2005, the amount of loans to Clickcom VIE and Sunroom VIE were approximately US$256,000 (low interest at 2%) and US$250,000 (interest free) respectively. None of the VIEs' assets were collateralized for our loans. Given the fact that we do not have direct ownership interests in these VIEs, the creditors of these VIEs will not have recourse to the general credit of our group being the primary beneficiary.

F-30


Under various contractual agreements, employee shareholders of the VIEs are required to transfer their ownership in these entities to our subsidiaries in China when permitted by PRC laws and regulations or to our designees at any time for the amount of the outstanding loans. All voting rights of the VIEs are then assigned to us. We have the power to appoint all directors and senior management personnel of the VIEs. Through our wholly owned subsidiaries in China, we have also entered into exclusive technical agreements and other service agreements with the VIEs, under which these subsidiaries provide technical services.

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

The Company accounts for its business combinations using the purchase method of accounting. This method requires that the acquisition cost to be allocated to the assets and liabilities the Company acquired based on their fair values. The Company makes estimates and judgments in determining the fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities, based on valuations using management's estimates and assumptions including its experience with similar assets and liabilities in similar industries. If different judgments or assumptions were used, the amounts assigned to the individual acquired assets or liabilities could be materially different.

GOODWILL AND PURCHASED INTANGIBLE ASSETS (CORRECTION OF AN ERROR)

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired as a result of the Company's acquisitions of interests in its subsidiaries and VIEs. Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets ("SFAS 142")," goodwill is no longer amortized, but tested for impairment upon first adoption and annually, thereafter, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. The Company assesses goodwill for impairment periodically in accordance with SFAS 142.

The Company applies the criteria specified in SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" to determine whether an intangible asset should be recognized separately from goodwill. Intangible assets acquired through business acquisitions are recognized as assets separate from goodwill if they satisfy either the "contractual-legal" or "separability" criterion. Per SFAS 142, intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their estimated useful life and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets." Intangible assets, such as purchased technology, trademark, customer list, user base and non-compete agreements, arising from the acquisitions of subsidiaries and variable interest entities are recognized and measured at fair value upon acquisition. Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives from one to ten years. The Company reviews the amortization methods and estimated useful lives of intangible assets at least annually or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. The recoverability of an intangible asset to be held and used is evaluated by comparing the carrying amount of the intangible asset to its future net undiscounted cash flows. If the intangible asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds the fair value of the intangible asset, calculated using a discounted future cash flow analysis. The Company uses estimates and judgments in its impairment tests, and if different estimates or judgments had been utilized, the timing or the amount of the impairment charges could be different.

We currently have seven reporting units: Lion Zone, Linkhead, EPRO, Shanghai Classic, Smartime/Soluteck, Clickcom-WOFE, and Guangzhou 3G-WOFE for the purpose of goodwill assessment. We determined our reporting units if the entity constituted a business, financial information was available, and segment management can regularly review the operating results of that component. Excluding investment holding vehicles and self-developed units, reporting units only include those operating units that PacificNet holds 50% or more through acquisition and maintain effective control. Units such as PacificNet Solution, PacificNet Limited, and PacificNet Communication are 100% owned by PacificNet through self development and not through acquisition. Therefore, there is no goodwill allocation to these self-developed units.

We allocated goodwill amongst the reporting units based on the consideration paid in shares and cash minus the proportional share of the fair value of net assets and liabilities at the time of acquisition specific to each reporting unit. The fair value of each reporting unit represents the amount at which the unit as a whole could be bought or sold in a current transaction between willing parties in an open marketplace. At the time of acquisition, the fair value of assets and liabilities was determined based on book value minus any potential write-down, if any, to reflect the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired in the transaction. The Company has one class of goodwill arising from business combination resulting from the acquisitions of our subsidiaries. Goodwill has been revised to reflect certain expenses that should have been written off prior to certain acquisitions, not subsequent to the acquisitions, to better reflect the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in certain business combinations during 2003 in accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations”. Originally, the Company had acquired certain intangible assets such as research and development costs and related party receivables that were considered as part of the purchase price allocation, then subsequently expensed them at year end. As of and for the year ended December 31, 2003, the correction of the error resolved in an approximate $597,000 increase in goodwill with an offsetting decrease in net loss, accumulated deficit, and total stockholders’ equity. Net loss per share decreased from $0.36 to $0.24. Notes 4, 15 and Note 16 have been revised to reflect the corresponding correction of an error.

The Company assesses the need to record impairment losses on our goodwill assets at least annually or when an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The assessment includes using a combination of qualitative and quantitative analyses such as DCF/PE multiples based on 5 year profit forecasts, and published comparables, where applicable. The Company concluded that there have been no material adverse changes on the operating environments during the reporting periods that would have otherwise affected the carrying value of the goodwill. In addition, there has been no disposal of any reporting subsidiaries and, as a result, no gain or loss is recognized during those reporting periods.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company periodically assesses the need to record impairment losses on long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and purchased intangible assets, used in operations and its investments when indicators of impairment are present indicating the carrying value may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset (if any) are less than the carrying value of the asset. When impairment is identified, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its estimated fair value. All goodwill will no longer be amortized and potential impairment of goodwill and purchased intangible assets with indefinite useful lives will be evaluated using the specific guidance provided by SFAS No. 142 and SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets."

F-32


This impairment analysis is performed at least annually. For investments in affiliated companies that are not majority-owned or controlled, indicators or value generally include revenue growth, operating results, cash flows and other measures. Management then determines whether there has been a permanent impairment of value based upon events and circumstances that have occurred since acquisition. It is reasonably possible that the impairment factors evaluated by management will change in subsequent periods, given that the Company operates in a volatile environment. This could result in material impairment charges in future periods.

INVESTMENTS IN AFFILIATED COMPANIES

The Company's investments in affiliated companies for which its ownership exceeds 20%, but is not majority-owned or controlled, are accounted for using the equity method. The Company's investments in affiliated companies for which its ownership is less than 20% are accounted for using the cost method.

COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net earnings and other gains (losses) affecting stockholders' equity that, under generally accepted accounting principles are excluded from net earnings in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenues are derived from the following categories as classified by our operating segments (see Note 15): (1) outsourcing services including Business Process Outsourcing (BPO), call center, IT Outsourcing (ITO) and software development services; (2) Value-Added Telecom Services (VAS) including Content Providing (CP), Interactive Voice Response (IVR), Platform Providing (PP) and Service Providing (SP); and (3) Communication Products Distribution Services, including calling cards, GSM/ CDMA/ XiaoLingTong products, and multimedia self-service kiosks.

Revenues from outsourcing services are recognized when the services are rendered. Revenues from license agreements are recognized when a signed non-cancelable software license exists, delivery has occurred, the Company's fee is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is probable at the date of sale. Revenues from software development services are recognized when the customer accepts the installation and no significant modification or customization work is involved, in accordance with SOP 97-2 "Software Revenue Recognition." Revenues from support services such as consulting, implementation and training services are recognized when the services are performed, collectibility is probable and such revenues are contractually nonrefundable.

Revenues from value-added telecom services are derived principally from providing mobile phone users with short messaging service ("SMS"), multimedia messaging service ("MMS"), color ring back tone ("CRBT"), wireless application protocol ("WAP") and interactive voice response system ("IVR"). These services include news and other content subscriptions, mobile dating service, picture and logo download, ring tones, ring back tones, mobile games, chat rooms and access to music files. These revenues from are charged on a monthly or per-usage basis and are recognized in the period in which the service is performed, provided that no significant Company obligations remain, collection of the receivables is reasonably assured and the amounts can be accurately estimated. In accordance with EITF No. 99-19, "Reporting Revenues Gross as a Principal Versus Net as an Agent," revenues are recorded on a gross basis when the Company is considered the primary obligor to the VAS users. Under the gross method, the amounts billed to VAS users are recognized as revenues and the fees charged or retained by the third-party operators are recognized as cost of revenues.

Revenues from the sale of products and systems are recognized when the product and system is completed, shipped, and the risks and rewards of ownership have transferred.

Revenues from the distribution of all types of calling cards and product sales is recognized in accordance with EITF No. 99-19, "Reporting Revenues Gross as a Principal Versus Net as an Agent," where revenues are recorded on a gross basis when the Company is considered the primary obligor to the users, maintains an inventory of products before the products are ordered by customers, has latitude in establishing the pricing power of products, is subject to physical inventory loss risk, and has credit risk as it is responsible for collecting the sales price from the customer and is responsible for paying the supplier regardless of whether or not the sales price is fully collectible.

The effect of post-shipment/delivery obligations, such as customer acceptance, product returns, etc. on our revenue recognition policy is as follows: (a) there is no effect on outsourcing services as revenue is recognized as the services are performed; however product sale revenue is recognized when contracts are approximately 80% completed for revenue recognition and fully when the customer signs the UAT, (i.e., "User Acceptance Form"); (b) there is no effect on value-added services revenue as the product sales mainly involve IVR hardware that are from mature and stable products of multi-national vendors and there have been minimal returns historically; and (c) there is no effect on communication products distribution since the transactions are conducted on cash basis and revenue is recognized at the time the sale is transacted.
 
F-33


ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

The Company presents accounts receivable, net of allowances for doubtful accounts and returns. The allowances are calculated based on a detailed review of certain individual customer accounts, historical rates and an estimate of the overall economic conditions affecting the Company's customer base. The Company frequently monitors its customers' financial condition and credit worthiness and only sells products, licenses or services to customers where, at the time of the sale, collection is reasonably assured. If the financial condition of its customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. The Company also records reserves for bad debt for all other customers based on a variety of factors including the length of time the receivables are past due, the financial health of the customer, macroeconomic considerations and historical experience. If circumstances related to specific customers change, the Company's estimates of the recoverability of receivables could be further adjusted. Allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2005 was approximately $5,000 (2004: $0).

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment is stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term, ranging from three to five years. Significant improvements and betterments are capitalized. Routine repairs and maintenance are expensed when incurred. When property and equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset account and related accumulated depreciation account are relieved, and any gain or loss is included in operations.

INVENTORIES

Inventories consist of finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is computed using the first-in, first-out method and includes all costs of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Market value is determined by reference to the sales proceeds of items sold in the ordinary course of business after the balance sheet date or management estimates based on prevailing market conditions. The inventories consist of finished goods and represent telecommunication products such as mobile phone, rechargeable phone cards, smart chip, and interactive voice response cards.

INCOME TAXES

Income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability approach, which requires the recognition of income taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements or tax returns. The measurement of current and deferred tax liabilities and assets is based on provisions of the enacted tax laws; the effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by the amount of any tax benefits that, based on available evidence assessed using the criteria in SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," will not more-likely-than-not be realized.
 
The Company records a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, if any, based on 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. If the Company is able to utilize more of its deferred tax assets than the net amount previously recorded when unanticipated events occur, an adjustment to deferred tax assets would be reflected in income when those events occur.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS AND CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE COSTS

Expenditures related to the research and development of new products and processes, including significant improvements and refinements to existing products are expensed as incurred, unless they are required to be capitalized. Software development costs are required to be capitalized when a product's technological feasibility has been established by completion of a detailed program design or working model of the product, and ending when a product is available for release to customers. For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company did not capitalize any costs related to the purchase of software and related technologies and content. Research and development costs charged to operations for 2005, 2004 and 2003 were approximately $182,400, $161,000, and $0, respectively.

EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS)

Basic and diluted earnings or loss per share (EPS) amounts in the financial statements are computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive common stock equivalents. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income/loss available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Dilutive earnings per share for 2005 exclude the potential dilutive effect of 473,456 warrants because their impact would be anti-dilutive based on current market prices. All per share and per share information are adjusted retroactively to reflect stock splits and changes in par value.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

The Company has adopted SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation". As permitted by SFAS No. 123, the Company measures compensation cost in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and related interpretations. Compensation cost for stock options, if any, is measured as the excess of the quoted market price of the Company's stock at the date of grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Accordingly, no accounting recognition is given to stock option granted at fair market value until they are exercised. Upon exercise, net proceeds including tax benefits realized, are credited to equity. Details regarding a description and status of the Company's stock option plans can be found in Note 12.

The Company's net earnings (loss) and net earnings (loss) per common share would have changed to the pro forma amounts indicated below if compensation cost for the Company's stock option had been determined based on fair value at the grant date for awards in accordance with SFAS No. 123, (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The fair value of options granted during 2005, 2004, and 2003 was approximately $4.82, $1.88, and $2.17, respectively, per option respectively based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model using valuation assumptions of: a) average remaining contractual life of four, two, and three years; b) expected volatility of 43.18%, 153.68%, and 129.8%, c) dividend yield of 0% for all years; and d) a risk free interest rate of 5%, 3%, and 2.5%.

ADVERTISING EXPENSES

Advertising expenses consist primarily of costs of promotion for corporate image and product marketing and costs of direct advertising. The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred and classify these costs under selling, general and administrative expenses, which amounted to $150,047, $9,908, and $9,114 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.

CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other financial institutions, and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the PacificNet's cash management are also included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the cash flow statement. Highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash equivalents.


F-35


RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Company's securities including such person's immediate families, (ii) the Company's management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. (See Note 12)

RECLASSIFICATION

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These changes had no effect on previously reported results of operations or total stockholders' equity.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair value is described as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between informed willing parties, other than a forced liquidation. Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities are reported on the consolidated balance sheets at carrying value which approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. The Company does not have any off balance sheet financial instruments.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

CASH HELD IN BANKS. For those financial institutions that the Company maintains cash balances in the United States, the amounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $100,000.

GEOGRAPHIC RISK. All of the Company's revenues are derived in Asia and Greater China and its operations are governed by Chinese laws and regulations. The operations in China are carried out by the subsidiaries and VIEs. If the Company was unable to derive any revenue from Asia and Greater China, it would have a significant, financially disruptive effect on the normal operations of the Company.

SIGNIFICANT RELATIONSHIPS. A. substantial portion of the operations of the Company's VIEs (Dianxun-DE and Sunroom-DE) business operations depend on mobile telecommunications operators (operators) in China and any loss or deterioration of such relationship may result in severe disruptions to their business operations and the loss of a significant portion of the Company's revenue. The VIEs rely entirely on the networks and gateways of these operators to provide its wireless value-added services. Specifically these operators are the only entities in China that have platforms for wireless value-added services. The Company's agreements with these operators are generally for a period of less than one year and generally do not have automatic renewal provisions. If neither of them is willing to continue to cooperate with the Company, it would severely affect the Company's ability to conduct its existing wireless value-added services business.

MARKETABLE EQUITY SECURITIES

Marketable equity securities are classified as available-for-sale and are recorded at fair value in other assets on the balance sheet, with the change in fair value during the period excluded from earnings and recorded net of tax as a component of other comprehensive income. Realized gains or losses are charged to the income statement during the period in which the gain or loss is realized. Investments classified as available-for-sale securities include marketable equity securities of Unit Trust Funds and are based primarily on quoted market prices at December 31, 2005. The component costs of these securities are summarized as follows: cost of $567,000, gross unrealized losses of $28,000 and estimated fair value of $539,000. The acquisition of marketable securities and unrealized losses on marketable equity securities are recorded on consolidated statements of cash flows.

FOREIGN CURRENCY

The Company's reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The Company's operations in China and Hong Kong use their respective currencies as their functional currencies. The financial statements of these subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities and average rates of exchange in the period for revenue and expenses. Translation gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss as a component of shareholders' equity. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange transactions are included in General and Administrative Expenses an amount of US$76,000. During the year ended December 31, 2005, the foreign currency translation adjustments to the Company's comprehensive income was $271,000 and the currency translation gain was approximately $29,000, primarily as a result of the Chinese Renminbi appreciating against the U.S. dollar.

F-36


SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company determines and classified its operating segments in accordance with SFAS No. 131 "DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION" based on the following considerations: (a) each of the Company's operating segments is a discrete business unit that earns revenues and incurs expenses; (b) the operating results are regularly reviewed by PacificNet's chief operating decision makers for the purposes of fine-tuning its strategies going forward, making resource allocation decisions such as whether further working capital advances are required and assessing individual performance; and (c) discrete financial information for each subsidiary within each operating segment is available. The chief operating decision makers are the Company's President and CEO and its Chairman, and their decisions are based on discussions with each segment's senior management and financial controllers regarding non-financial indicators such as customer satisfaction, loyalty and new marketplace competition as well as financial indicators such as internally generated financial statements, to assess overall financial performance.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued the following recent accounting pronouncements:

In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, "Accounting Changes and Error Corrections". SFAS No. 154 replaces APB Opinion No. 20 "Accounting Changes" and SFAS No. 3, "Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements". SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods' financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. The adoption of SFAS No. 154 did impact the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R (revised 2004) "Share-Based Payment" which amends FASB Statement No. 123 and will be effective for public companies (small business issuers) for interim or annual periods beginning after December 15, 2005. SFAS 123R requires that compensation cost related to share-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. Share-based payment transactions within the scope of SFAS 123R include stock options, restricted stock plans, performance-based awards, stock appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. The Company adopted the new standard as of January 1, 2006. Based on the Company's evaluation of the adoption of the new standard, the Company believes that it could have a significant impact to the Company's financial position and overall results of operations depending on the number of stock options granted in a given year.

As of December 31, 2005, the total amount of cash and stock consideration was $2,275,000 and $1,100,000 respectively.

At December 31, 2005, goodwill of $881,681 represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and is not deductible for tax purposes and the total amount of goodwill by reportable segment for VAS Business was $9,584,000 (see Note 15).

In accordance with SFAS 142, goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually. The purchase price allocation for ChinaGohi acquisition is based on management's estimates and overall industry experience. Immediately after the signing of the definitive agreement, the Company obtained effective control over ChinaGohi. Accordingly, the operating results of ChinaGohi have been consolidated with those of the Company starting December 19, 2005. Pursuant to SFAS 141 "Business Combinations", the earn-out consideration is considered contingent consideration, which will not become certain until the audited combined after-tax profit of US$4,500,000 for 15 months ending December 31, 2006 is available. Accordingly, the contingent consideration of 687,500 restricted shares and cash of US$1,325,000 have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2005.

TAKE 1 TECHNOLOGIES GROUP LIMITED (FORMERLY KNOWN AS: CHEER ERA LIMITED "CHEERERA")

The investment in 30% of Take 1 Technologies Group Limited ("Take 1"), a trader of vending machine located in Hong Kong, was originally made in April 2004 with details as follows:

In April 2004 the Company, through its subsidiary PacificNet Strategic Investment Holdings Limited, acquired 30% equity interest in Take 1. The aggregate consideration was $1,156,812, of which $385,604 was paid in cash and $771,208 was paid in 149,459 PacificNet shares at $5.16, and warrants within a duration of three years to purchase up to 80,000 PacificNet shares at 5-Day volume weighted average price immediately prior to the transaction. The warrants have been cancelled in the year 2005 because the warranted profit was not met. (See Note 5).

F-45


In 2005 both the Company and Take 1 have mutually agreed to a change to the original investment structure pursuant to the Securities Repurchase Agreements entered. Summarized below are the effects of these repurchase arrangements:
 
(i)
PacificNet 's interest in Take 1 was reduced to 20% in the year 2005 from 30% in the prior year;
 
(ii)
PacificNet repurchased 149,459 shares in PacificNet previously issued to the majority owner of Take 1 at nominal value;
 
(iii)
In addition to PacificNet 's existing loan of $769,000 (or HKD$6,000,000), PacificNet will advance a new loan of $256,000 (or HKD$2,000,000) to Take 1 (collectively called `Convertible Loan'). The Convertible Loan is guaranteed personally and jointly by the two majority owners of Take 1. The term of the Convertible Loan shall be three years expiring on October 17, 2008 (referred as "Term") with 8% interest per annum or HK Six-Month Prime Rate, whichever is higher; and
 
(iv)
Conversion terms of the Convertible Loan provide PacificNet an option at any time during the Term to convert in part or in whole of the then outstanding loan principal up toS$1,794,000 (or HKD$8,000,000) into shares of Take 1 to reach 51% ownership of Take 1. The conversion rate will be based on a valuation of SIX (6) times the average annual net profits of 3 years ending December 31, 2007 audited by PacificNet 's auditors.
 
As a result, the original investment of Take 1 was reduced at cost to $385,604 as of December 31, 2005 due to the PacificNet shares repurchased under item (ii) above. The management intends to cancel these repurchased shares subsequent to the year end. As of December 31, 2005, the outstanding loan amount due to Take 1 was US$769,000.

5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

OPERATING LEASES -The Company leases warehouse and office space under operating leases for two years with fixed monthly rentals that expire through 2005. None of the leases included contingent rentals. Lease expense charged to operations for 2005, 2004, and 2003 amounted to $653,000, $397,854, and $109,000. Future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases are 2006: $870,000 and 2007: $806,000.

RESTRICTED CASH - The Company has a $163,000 pledged bank deposit for Epro which represents overdraft protections with certain financial institutions and a fixed deposit of $1,489,000 for Lion Zone utilized to provide guarantee for related party.

BANK LINE OF CREDIT (2005): As of December 31, 2005, the Company utilized $1,060,000 of the banking facility including $945,000 from Epro and $112,000 from Smartime, and the differences of the exchange rate of $3,000. Epro has an overdraft banking facility with certain major financial institutions in the aggregate amount of $1,218,000, which is secured by a pledge of its fixed deposits of $163,000, pursuant to the following terms: interest will be charged at the Hong Kong Prime Rate per annum and payable at the end of each calendar month or the date of settlement, whichever is earlier. For Smartime, there is no due date payment stipulated by Hong Kong Hang Seng Bank because its overdraft banking facility was borrowed directly from one of its directors personal fixed deposit account as a mortgage. The detailed payment period is based on its funding condition.

F-46


BANK LINE OF CREDIT (2004): The Company has an overdraft banking facility with certain major bankers in the aggregate amount of $1,309,000, which is secured by a pledge of the Company's fixed deposits in the amount of $212,000, pursuant to the following terms: interest will be charged at the Hong Kong Prime Rate per annum and payable at the end of each calendar month or the date of settlement, which ever is earlier. As of December 31, 2004, the Company utilized $651,000 of the above-mentioned banking facility.

CONTINGENT CONSIDERATION: Warrants have not been included as part of the acquisition price of various S&P Agreements (Note 2) and are no longer considered as part of the purchase consideration due to (i) the ambiguity of the S&P Agreements with respect to the issuance of the warrants and (ii) the lack of actual instruments to transfer the warrants, such as a warrant agreement that is signed and sealed by the Company and property registered at the Company Registrar of securities in Hong Kong, and accordingly, there is no irrevocable obligation by the Company to issue the warrants. Furthermore, the net income milestones were not achieved as required under the S&P Agreements according to Hong Kong law. Based on the opinion of the Company's legal counsel in Hong Kong, the Company does not have an irrevocable obligation to issue the warrants and therefore the warrants are not considered issued and outstanding. The offer to issue the warrants is no longer part of the purchase price in the S&P Agreements due to the failure by the Sellers to satisfy their warranties in the S&P Agreements. Accordingly, the warrants have not been valued.

MINIMUM STATED CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS. Guangzhou Dianxun Co, Limited (DE) ("Dianxun"), a subsidiary of the Group, is carrying on business as a telecommunication value added service provider in the People's Republic of China ("PRC"). Initially, Dianxun obtained a certificate (the "Certificate") from the PRC authority to transact business and according to the PRC Telecommunication Rules, all telecommunication value added service providers can only carry on business if the Certificate is granted and if the Company maintains a minimum capital requirement of at least RMB10,000,000.

In order to satisfy the capital requirement of RMB 10,000,000, the shareholders of Dianxun had contributed relevant asset equivalent to RMB9,000,000 on behalf of Dianxun and such assets were verified by an independent professional accountant. Subsequently, such assets were returned back to the shareholders. In the opinion of the directors, even though the capital requirement is not fulfilled, Dianxun can continue to carry on business. No provision for any loss arising from the consequential actions that may be taken by the authority in the PRC and any potential penalties or claims for the Company not maintaining the minimum stated capital requirements of the PRC have been made in these financial statements.

Dianxun's contribution to consolidated revenues and net profit for 2005 was approximately 1.5% and 5.6%, respectively. Upon demand by the PRC authorities, PacificNet has agreed to loan Clickcom the remaining balance of the registration capital to provide the stated capital in accordance with PRC laws.

Item 14.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers
 
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court to award, or a corporations board of directors to grant, indemnity to directors and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").
 
The Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws of the Registrant provide that the registrant shall indemnify any person to the full extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"). Section 145 of the DGCL, relating to indemnification, is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
 
In accordance with Section 102(a)(7) of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation of the registrant eliminates the personal liability of directors to the registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director with certain limited exceptions set forth in Section 102(a)(7).
 
In addition, the registrant currently maintains an officers’ and directors’ liability insurance policy which insures, subject to the exclusions and limitations of the policy, officers and directors of the Registrant against certain liabilities which might be incurred by them solely in such capacities.
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the registrant, pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Item 17.  Undertakings
 
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
 
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made pursuant to this Registration Statement, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
 
(i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933.
 
(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.
 
(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement.
 
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
 
(4) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions described in Item 15 above, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
