EXPLANATORY NOTE
In February 2011 we filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to change our fiscal year end from March 31 to December 31 as the new fiscal year end is consistent with the fiscal year of our most significant subsidiaries. Accordingly, we are filing this transitional report as required under Release Number 33-6283.
PART I
References to “us”, “we” and “our” in this report refer to ANV Security Group, Inc together with our subsidiaries.
ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
General Development of Business
Overview of Our Business
In 2010, our business has experienced an exceptional growth through a series of acquisitions in China and has been successfully transformed from a start-up company into a leading video surveillance system and solution provider. We are primarily engaged, through our Chinese subsidiaries, in the developing, manufacturing and marketing of video surveillance products, systems and solutions,
A majority of our revenues are derived from the provision of advanced IP based video surveillance solutions to a wide range of customers worldwide. Our sales network has been expanded significantly in 2010. Our channel partner network enables our product to be distributed over 50 countries worldwide. Our subsidiaries in China collectively have more than 13 branch offices and cover most of China’s populated areas.
The size of our company is enlarged to be with more than 500 staff, 3 R&D centers and about 8000 square meter manufacturing base.
Our revenue is exploring a dramatic increase from $0.02 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 to $7.16 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2010, which is primarily contributed from two closed acquisitions in Q4. The company has successfully raised $6.7 million in Q2 used for expanding and acquisition. By December 31, 2010, we have assets of $22 million.
We strive to provide customer-driven, leading-edge solutions to our customers and actively pursue acquisition prospects and other strategic opportunities.
Organizational History
We were originally called “B.G. S. Energy, Inc.” and were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on May 29, 1981. We were organized to engage in, alone or in conjunction with others, the exploration for, and where warranted, the development of oil, gas and mineral properties, the sale of oil, gas and mineral related leases. We became public in 1981 in a best efforts public offering and thereafter operated various oil and gas properties. We owned various oil and gas leases in Utah, Oklahoma, Kentucky, Texas and other states from time to time in 80’s. In 1988 we changed our name to Dini Products Inc. and continued our oil and gas operations. Our revenues decreased and in 1992 we became dormant and did not have any operations for many years until we acquired all of the shares of Canada ANV Systems, Inc., a British Columbia corporation (“CANV”) in June 2009 and changed our name to ANV Security Group, Inc. In 2010, we finalized a series of acquisitions of video surveillance companies in China, and our business became the business of our indirect, wholly-owned Chinese subsidiaries. We are currently headquartered in Shenzhen, China.
Business Segments
In fiscal year 2010, we restructure our business into the following segments in order to meet customers’ growing demand and realign the management and operation procedures in eachtion segment:
The Product Segment provides design, manufacture and sale of video surveillance products, including CCTV camera, digital video recorder, network camera and network video storage equipment; ( the “Product Segment”);
The Solution Segment provides design, integration and sale of video surveillance system and software platform, including mobile video surveillance solution, video conferencing & surveillance solution, and all-IP surveillance solution; (the “Solution Segment”);
The Service Segment provides network based Video-Surveillance-as-a-Service (VSaaS); (the “Service Segment ”);
In 2010, the Product Segment contributes the major part of revenue. The Solution Segment and Service Segment are currently in the development stage, and the assets and operating results were not significant in 2010. However, we expect that Solution Segment will play an important role in both revenue generation and brand exposure in next couple of years.
Moreover, as the pioneer of VSaaS provider in Canada, we will continue to explore and invest into more opportunities in the Service Segment in next few years, especially in China and North America – two of the largest surveillance market in the world.
Overall, combined three segments, we are able to provide our customers one-stop solution and service that is powered by the advanced video and network technology, which we believe many of our competitors can not match.
The Video Surveillance Industry in General
According to markets report dated December, 2010, the increasing need for security is driving the growth of the global video surveillance market. The video surveillance market is expected to grow from $11.5 billion in 2008 to $37.7 billion in 2015 at a CAGR of 20.4% from 2010 to 2015.
Cameras, storage, servers, encoders, and software are the major components of a video surveillance system. The camera accounted for almost 47% of the total video surveillance market in 2008 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 21.1% from 2010 to 2015. The software market is expected to grow at the fastest rate with a CAGR of 21.7% from 2010 to 2015 owing to the introduction of video analytics which makes the video surveillance system intelligent. The players of video surveillance market have together introduced the concept of cloud computing in this market. Video surveillance is starting to be offered as a service to the end users. The desired location is monitored with the help of cameras and the recordings are stored by the service providers which eliminates the need for storage at each site.
China, one of the fastest growing economies in the world, is one of the largest consumers in the surveillance global market. The government is the biggest push force to fuel the rapid growing of China market. According to the latest approved “The 12th Five-Year Development Plan of Surveillance Industry (2011-2015)”, the government is aiming at double the surveillance industry scale (including service segment) in next five year, to reach above $80 billion in 2015, surveillance service sector counts about twenty percent..
Management believes that the business strategy and segments placed in 2010 are well positioned to participate in these trends.
Our Products & Services
We manufacture the key components of video surveillance products, and typically rely on our own factory to assemble the final products utilizing our technology. All of our final products are fully branded and developed independently. We also designs software and manufactures most of our hardware products independently. Our main products include embedded DVRs, mobile DVRs, CCTV cameras, and network cameras.
Our embedded DVR provides recording and compression functions. It has a pre-installed surveillance software system developed by us, upgradable hard drive, network server function, H.264 video compression, 4-36 signal input channels, and uses Microsoft’s Windows operating system. As compared to our standalone DVR, the embedded DVR has higher capacity to accommodate the recording functions for a greater number of cameras. The primary markets for these products are large projects and community security projects.
Our mobile DVR is smaller in size and has a maximum of 4 ports. The mobile DVR can be installed in a vehicle and enables recording of digital video images within the vehicle’s cabin. This product is easily installable, supports Global Positioning System/General Packet Radio Service, has 1 to 4 signal input channels, and has H.264 video compression. It can also be equipped with wireless transmission module ( WiFi/3G module), which allows the control center to supervise or monitoring each vehicle remotely, The primary markets for this product are the transportation industry and governmental agencies.
Digital cameras can be easily installed in most locations on a customer’s site. The range of cameras that we produce and sell includes high-speed dome cameras, which can view 360 degrees, pan, zoom, and tilt, all at high speed, color Charge Coupled Device (CCD) cameras, indoor color CCD dome cameras, color/black and white CCD flying saucer cameras, infrared CCD multi-function cameras, mini-digital signal processing cameras, indoor stand-alone sphere CCD cameras, and network high-speed sphere CCD cameras.
Our network cameras are designed with our central management software through a built-in Web Server that allows users to access surveillance video through local area networks (LAN) or wide area network (WAN). It is equipped with zoom lens, and high-performance digital signal processing (DSP) cameras, embedded platforms, and digital decoder integrated. It is suitable for large businesses, intelligent buildings, banking security, urban roads, airport, and railway stations.

Intelligent Central Management Software Platforms
|
Our intelligent central management software platforms (ICMSP) are used for the management and integration of many kinds of video surveillance and security equipment. It can be modified to meet the different customers’ needs. Combined ICMSP and hardware equipment (e.g. DVR, camera), we can provide the completed solution to different industry segments. We plan to continue strengthening our software development platform with a more organic combination of hardware and software to achieve greater market success.
Customers
Our customer base is quite diversified and our revenue does not rely on a single customer or a certain group of customers.
Geographically, China is the most important market for us since about 70 percent revenue is generated from this country. Besides China, we have sold our products to more than 50 countries in past several years. We are going to further strengthern global sales network through both channel partners and our branch office and subsidiary company.
Our customers are primarily comprised of (1) governmental entities and their affiliates, such as municipalities, cities, provinces, customs agencies, courts, public security bureaus, and prisons; (2) non-profit organizations, including schools, museums, sports arenas, and libraries; and (3) commercial entities, such as airports, hotels, real estate, banks, mines, railways, supermarkets, and entertainment venues.
Patent Application
Our success depends, in part, on our ability to maintain and protect our proprietary technology and to conduct our business without infringing on the proprietary rights of others. We rely primarily on a combination of patents, trademarks and trade secrets, as well as employee and third-party confidentiality agreements, to safeguard our intellectual property.
As of December 31, 2010, we add 2 new patents and 6 software copyright.
We protect our trade secrets through confidentiality provisions of the employment contracts we enter into with our employees. In addition, our engineers are generally divided into different project groups, each of which generally handles only a portion of the project. As a result, no one engineer generally has access to the entire design process and documentation for a particular product.
We cannot give any assurance that the protection afforded for our intellectual property will be adequate. It may be possible for third parties to obtain and use, without our consent, intellectual property that we own or are licensed to use. Unauthorized use of our intellectual property by third parties, and the expenses incurred in protecting our intellectual property rights, may adversely affect our business. We may also be subject to litigation involving claims of patent infringement or violation of other intellectual property rights of third parties. See Item 1A, “Risk Factors – Risks Related to our Business – Our limited ability to protect our intellectual property, and the possibility that our technology could inadvertently infringe technology owned by others may adversely affect our ability to compete.”
Competition
The video surveillance market is highly competitive and fragmented with a number of international firms and thousands of smaller regional and local companies. However, the surveillance and safety industry is still nascent, and no company has obtained the dominating position, especially in the developing countries like China. In addition, it is difficult in the surveillance and safety industry for very large companies to reap benefits from their size, because most surveillance and safety projects require the product to be specially tailored to meet customers’ individual requirements.
In the surveillance and safety industry, competition is based on price, product quality, ability to distribute products, and ability to provide after-sales service. Competition is also based on a company’s ability to perform installations timely and successfully, the resources, capabilities and experience of the contractor, the regulatory licenses and approvals that the contractor holds, as well as other qualitative factors.
With the popularity of the broadband network application and the increased adoption of advanced video processing technology, more and more customers demand a completed system solution from vendors to reduce their safety risks. But, most of companies in surveillance industry are with limited product portafolio or lack of capability of providing such kind of system solution .
We believe we are one of few companies in China with enough R&D capability, manufacture capacity and distribution network to satisfy such industry trend.
Sales and Marketing
Our sales and marketing force has been highly enhanced through the acquisitions in China. Currently, our sales network is able to cover most of cities in China through 13 branch offices, and all major countries in America, Europe, Middle-East and Aisa through more than 100 channel partners.
We have redefined our marketing strategy with focus on product lines with higher profit margin, and eliminated several low-end product lines. Besides remaining several existed product brand inherited from acquired companies, we positions ANV brand as the high-end product and solution.
We have created a dedicated sales team on marketing our provisions from Solution Segment in China. The most of this sales team members are with more than 10 years industry experience and have helped our company to participate several major national-wide projects.
Several industry veterans with successful career experience from Honeywell, ADT, IBM and ZTE. have been added to management team to lead our marketing and sales team.
Environmental Matters
Laws and regulations relating to protection of the environment have not had a material impact on our business.
Proprietary Rights
In addition to our patent application we have entered into employment agreements with our key employees that require them to keep all of our proprietary information confidential and require that any invention of theirs while our employee, except for those not related to our business, becomes our property. Our OEM Agreement provides us with similar protections. We can not assure that such protections will prove adequate should they be challenged in litigation.
Research and Development
We are dependent on continual research and development efforts to maintain our competitive position with our products.
We have made major progress in the following aspects:
1.
|
Successfully launched full range of mobile DVR products support both standalone application and 3G wireless application
|
2.
|
Successfully launched high-definition network camera;
|
3.
|
Successfully launched 4- 8- 16-channel D1 DVR product.
|
4.
|
Our mobile DVR products have been approved by our major customers in Japan;
|
In connection to this effort, we have built up the three R&D centers in China, and hired more than 80 engineers in total. As of December 31, 2010 the research and development expense have been incurred with approximately of 5% on total revenue.
Government Regulation
As all surveillance and safety products produced in China, such as DVRs, monitors, and alarm systems must satisfy testing required by the China Public Security Bureau, or CPSB, and manufacturers of such products must receive the Security Technology Protection Product Manufacturing Permit from the provincial branch of CPSB. We have the permit relating to these products from CPSB.
Since our operating subsidiaries are located in the PRC, we are regulated by the national and local laws of the PRC. In addition, we are also subject to the PRC’s foreign currency regulations.
The PRC government has control over RMB reserves through, among other things, direct regulation of the conversion of RMB into other foreign currencies. Although foreign currencies which are required for “current account” transactions can be bought freely at authorized Chinese banks, the proper procedural requirements prescribed by Chinese law must be met. At the same time, Chinese companies are also required to sell their foreign exchange earnings to authorized Chinese banks and the purchase of foreign currencies for capital account transactions still requires prior approval of the Chinese government. We believe that we are in material compliance with all registrations and requirements for the issuance and maintenance of all licenses required by the governing bodies, and that all license fees and filings are current.
Employees
As of December 31, 2010, we had 520 employees in our offices in comparing with 20 employees at March 31, 2010, all of which are full-time. None of our employees are represented by a collective bargaining unit and we consider our employee relations to be satisfactory.
Seasonality
Our operating results and operating cash flows would be subject to seasonal variations. Our revenues would usually higher in the second half of the year than in the first half of the year, and the first quarter is usually the slowest quarter because fewer projects are undertaken during and around the Chinese New Year holiday.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Risks Relating To Our Business
You should carefully consider the risks described below before investing in our publicly traded securities. The risks described below are not the only ones facing us. Our business is also subject to the risks that affect many other companies, such as competition, technological obsolescence, labor relations, general economic conditions, geopolitical events, climate change and international operations. Additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial also may impair our business operations and our liquidity.
Our products and services often are subject to testing, inspection and approval and failure to obtain any such approval or delays in obtaining such approvals can affect our ability to receive payments due to us.
We frequently install surveillance and safety systems, supply products and services pursuant to agreements with general contractors or government agencies. The successful completion of our obligations under these contracts is often subject to satisfactory testing, inspection and approval of such products and services. No assurance can be given that the necessary approval of our products and services will be granted on a timely basis or at all, and that we will receive any payments due to us. In some cases, we may be dependent on others to complete these projects which may also delay payments to us. Any failure to obtain these approvals and payments may have a material adverse effect on our business, our cash flow and future financial performance.
We face risks related to general domestic and global economic conditions and to the current credit crisis.
Our current operating cash flows, which combined with access to the credit markets, provides us with significant discretionary funding capacity. However, the current uncertainty arising out of domestic and global economic conditions, including the recent disruption in credit markets, poses a risk to the economies in which we operate that has impacted demand for our products and services, and may impact our ability to manage normal relationships with our customers, suppliers and creditors. If the current situation deteriorates significantly, our business could be materially negatively impacted, including such areas as reduced demand for our products and services from a slow-down in the general economy, or supplier or customer disruptions resulting from tighter credit markets.
In order to grow at the pace expected by management, we will require additional capital to support our long-term business plan. If we are unable to obtain additional capital in future years, we may be unable to proceed with our long-term business plan and we may be forced to curtail or cease our operations.
We will require additional working capital to support our long-term business plan, which includes identifying suitable targets for horizontal or vertical mergers or acquisitions, so as to enhance the overall productivity and benefit from economies of scale. Our working capital requirements and the cash flow provided by future operating activities, if any, will vary greatly from quarter to quarter, depending on the volume of business during the period and payment terms with our customers. We may not be able to obtain adequate levels of additional financing, whether through equity financing, debt financing or other sources. Additional financings could result in significant dilution to our earnings per share or the issuance of securities with rights superior to our current outstanding securities. In addition, we may grant registration rights to investors purchasing our equity or debt securities in the future. If we are unable to raise additional financing, we may be unable to implement our long-term business plan, develop or enhance our products and services, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures on a timely basis, if at all. In addition, a lack of additional financing could force us to substantially curtail or cease operations.
We sometimes extend credit to our customers. Failure to collect the trade receivables or untimely collection could affect our liquidity.
We extend credit to some of our customers while generally requiring no collateral. Generally, our customers pay in installments, with a portion of the payment upfront, a portion of the payment upon receipt of our products by our customers and before the installation, and a portion of the payment after the installation of our products and upon satisfaction of our customer. Sometimes, a small portion of the payment will not be paid until after a certain period following the installation. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition and generally have no difficulties in collecting our payments. However, if we encounter future problems collecting amounts due from our clients or if we experience delays in the collection of amounts due from our clients, our liquidity could be negatively affected.
If we are unable to attract and retain senior management and qualified technical and sales personnel, our operations, financial condition and prospects will be materially adversely affected.
Our future success depends in part on the contributions of our management team and key technical and sales personnel and our ability to attract and retain qualified new personnel. In particular, our success depends on the continuing employment of our CEO, Dr. Weixing Wang, our CFO, Mr. Paul Lau, our COO, Mr. Jonathan Zeng, our VP, Ms. Yan Wang, and our VP, Mr. Xiaolin Yang. There is significant competition in our industry for qualified managerial, technical and sales personnel and we cannot assure you that we will be able to retain our key senior managerial, technical and sales personnel or that we will be able to attract, integrate and retain other such personnel that we may require in the future. Many engineers and technicians obtain post-graduate or professional degrees, and the increased educational time required at the post-graduate level further restricts the pool of engineers and technicians available for employment. We compete for all such personnel with other high tech companies in various fields. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in hiring or retaining such qualified personnel. If we are not able to hire and retain qualified people to fill these positions, our competitive position would be adversely affected, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If we are unable to attract and retain key personnel in the future, our business, operations, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially adversely affected.
Our growth strategy has required us to make acquisitions and to make additional acquisitions in the future, which could subject us to significant risks, any of which could harm our business.
Our growth strategy includes identifying and acquiring or investing in suitable candidates on acceptable terms. We have from time to time acquired other companies as reported in our Current Reports on Form 8-K. We have three pending transactions that are subject to various conditions including, but not limited to, governmental approvals. These transactions, if consummated, would result in our integrating manufacture of our products into our operations. Over time, we may acquire or make investments in other providers of products that complement our business and other companies in the security industry. The successful integration of these companies and any other acquired businesses require us to:
|
·
|
integrate and retain key management, sales, research and development, production and other personnel;
|
|
·
|
incorporate the acquired products or capabilities into our offerings from an engineering, sales and marketing perspective;
|
|
·
|
coordinate research and development efforts;
|
|
·
|
integrate and support pre-existing supplier, distribution and customer relationships; and
|
|
·
|
consolidate duplicate facilities and functions and combine back office accounting, order processing and support functions.
|
Acquisitions involve a number of risks and present financial, managerial and operational challenges, including:
|
·
|
diversion of management’s attention from running our existing business;
|
|
·
|
increased expenses, including travel, legal, administrative and compensation expenses resulting from newly hired employees;
|
|
·
|
increased costs to integrate personnel, customer base and business practices of the acquired company with our own;
|
|
·
|
adverse effects on our reported operating results due to possible write-down of goodwill associated with acquisitions;
|
|
·
|
potential disputes with sellers of acquired businesses, technologies, services, products and potential liabilities; and
|
|
·
|
dilution to our earnings per share if we issue common stock in any acquisition.
|
Moreover, performance problems with an acquired business, technology, product or service could also have a material adverse impact on our reputation as a whole. Any acquired business, technology, product or service could significantly under-perform relative to our expectations, and we may not achieve the benefits we expect from our acquisitions. Geographic distance between business operations, the compatibility of the technologies and operations being integrated and the disparate corporate cultures being combined also presents significant challenges. Acquired businesses are likely to have different standards, controls, contracts, procedures and policies, making it more difficult to implement and harmonize company-wide financial, accounting, billing, information and other systems. If we cannot overcome these challenges, we may not realize actual benefits from past and future acquisitions, which will impair our overall business results.
Due to our rapid growth, our past results may not be indicative of our future performance so evaluating our business and prospects may be difficult.
Our business has grown and evolved rapidly in recent years as demonstrated by our growth in sales revenue from approximately $0.16 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, to $7.16 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2010. We may not be able to achieve similar growth rate in future periods, and our historical operating results may not provide a meaningful basis for evaluating our business, financial performance and prospects. Therefore, you should not rely on our past results or our historical rate of growth as an indication of our future performance.
Our facilities, or facilities of our customers or suppliers, could be susceptible to natural disasters.
All of our manufacturing facilities, and many of the facilities of our customers and suppliers, are located in China. Natural disasters, such as floods and earthquakes, occur frequently in China, and they pose substantial threats to businesses with operations there. As a developing country, China’s emergency-response ability is limited, and its ability to provide emergency reconstruction and other aid to businesses affected by natural disasters is limited. Should a natural disaster severely damage one of our facilities, or damage a major facility of one or more of our significant customers or suppliers, our business could be materially disrupted.
In the event that adequate insurance is not available or our insurance is not deemed to cover a claim, we could face liability.
We carry insurances that our management consider customary and adequate. The laws of the jurisdictions in which we operate, may limit or prohibit insurance coverage for punitive or certain other types of damages or liability arising from gross negligence. If we incur increased losses related to employee acts or omissions, or system failure, or if we are unable to obtain adequate insurance coverage at reasonable rates, or if we are unable to receive reimbursements from insurance carriers, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Our quarterly operating results are likely to fluctuate, which may affect our stock price.
Our quarterly revenues, expenses, operating results and gross profit margins vary from quarter to quarter. As a result, our operating results may fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors in some quarters, which could result in a decrease in the market price of our common stock. The reasons our quarterly results may fluctuate include:
|
·
|
seasonality inherent in the surveillance and safety industry;
|
|
·
|
variations in profit margins attributable to product mix;
|
|
·
|
changes in the general competitive and economic conditions;
|
|
·
|
delays in, or uneven timing in the delivery of, customer orders;
|
|
·
|
the introduction of new products by us or our competitors; and
|
Period to period comparisons of our results should not be relied on as indications of future performance.
We could face liability for our failure to respond adequately to alarm activations.
The nature of the services we provide potentially exposes us to greater risks of liability for employee acts or omissions or system failures that may be inherent in other businesses. In the event of litigation with respect to such matters, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, the costs of such litigation could have an adverse effect on us.
Future government regulations or other standards could have an adverse effect on our operations.
Our operations are subject to a variety of laws, regulations and licensing requirements of national and local authorities in China, Hong Kong SAR and North American. In certain jurisdictions, we are required to obtain licenses or permits and to meet certain standards in the conduct of our business. The loss of such licenses, or the imposition of conditions to the granting or retention of such licenses, could have an adverse effect on us. In the event that these laws, regulations and/or licensing requirements change, we may be required to modify our operations or to utilize resources to maintain compliance with such rules and regulations. In addition, new regulations may be enacted that could have an adverse effect on us.
Our limited ability to protect our intellectual property, and the possibility that our technology could inadvertently infringe technology owned by others, may adversely affect our ability to compete.
We rely on a combination of trademarks, patent, copyrights, trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures and licensing arrangements to protect our intellectual property rights. A successful challenge to the ownership of our technology could materially damage our business prospects. Our competitors may assert that our technologies or products infringe on their patents or proprietary rights. We may be required to obtain from others licenses that may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Problems with intellectual property rights could increase the cost of our products or delay or preclude our new product development and commercialization. If infringement claims against us are deemed valid, we may not be able to obtain appropriate licenses on acceptable terms or at all. Litigation could be costly and time-consuming but may be necessary to protect our technology license positions or to defend against infringement claims. We have applied for a United States patent for our web based security systems. No assurance can be given that we will be granted a patent, that, if granted, any patent will provide us with meaningful protection from infringement by others or that any patent that we may be granted will not be held by a court to infringe on the rights of others. The loss of patent protection could materially adversely affect our business.
Product Failure, Marketplace Reputation and Liability
Through our wholesalers, dealers, installers, franchisees and direct operations we intend to install hundreds and eventually thousands of security systems. Should any of our systems fail to perform as promised due to a product defect or a faulty installation, our reputation could be marred by adverse publicity. We could be liable for damages suffered by our customer. Consequently our operating results and stock price could suffer.
Our officers have limited experience in managing a public company.
With the exception of Paul Lau our CFO, our present officers have no previous experience in managing a public company and we do not have a sufficient number of employees to segregate responsibilities and may be unable to afford increasing our staff or engaging outside consultants or professionals to overcome our lack of employees. During the course of our testing, we may identify other deficiencies that we may not be able to remediate in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with the requirements of Section 404. In addition, if we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Moreover, effective internal controls, particularly those related to revenue recognition, are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to help prevent financial fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our common stock, if a market ever develops, could drop significantly.
Competition
We face a variety of competitive challenges from other security and surveillance companies in every market where we operate or plan to operate. Many of our competitors will be large multinational or market dominant companies whom have greater financial and marketing resources than we do and may be able to adapt to changes in consumer preferences or requirements more quickly, devote greater resources to the marketing and sale of their products or adopt more aggressive pricing policies than we can.
Control by Management
Our company is effectively controlled by management, specifically Weixing Wang, Yan Wang, Jonathan Zeng and Tinyi Li who beneficially at December 31, 2010 owned an aggregate of 20,798,396 shares or 31.45% of our 66,130,071 issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of December 31, 2010. Accordingly, they will be able to elect our board of directors and control our corporate affairs for the foreseeable future.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR INDUSTRY
Our success relies on our management’s ability to understand the highly evolving network surveillance and safety industry.
The network surveillance and safety industry is nascent and rapidly evolving. Therefore, it is critical that our management is able to understand industry trends and make good strategic business decisions. If our management is unable to identify industry trends and act in response to such trends in a way that is beneficial to us, our business will suffer.
If we are unable to respond to the rapid changes in our industry and changes in our customer’s requirements and preferences, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
If we are unable, for technological, legal, financial or other reasons, to adapt in a timely manner to changing market conditions or customer requirements, we could lose customers and market share. The network surveillance and safety industry is characterized by rapid technological change. Sudden changes in customer requirements and preferences, the frequent introduction of new products and services embodying new technologies and the emergence of new industry standards and practices could render our existing products, services and systems obsolete. The emerging nature of products and services in the network surveillance and safety industry and their rapid evolution will require that we continually improve the performance, features and reliability of our products and services. Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to:
|
·
|
enhance our existing products and services;
|
|
·
|
anticipate changing customer requirements by designing, developing, and launching new products and services that address the increasingly sophisticated and varied needs of our current and prospective customers; and
|
|
·
|
respond to technological advances and emerging industry standards and practices on a cost-effective and timely basis.
|
The development of additional products and services involves significant technological and business risks and requires substantial expenditures and lead time. If we fail to introduce products with new technologies in a timely manner, or adapt our products to these new technologies, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. We cannot assure you that even if we are able to introduce new products or adapt our products to new technologies that our products will gain acceptance among our customers. In addition, from time to time, we or our competitors may announce new products, product enhancements or technological innovations that have the potential to replace or shorten the life cycles of our existing products and that may cause customers to refrain from purchasing our existing products, resulting in inventory obsolescence.
We may not be able to maintain or improve our competitive position of strong competition in the network surveillance and safety industry, and we expect this competition to continue to intensify.
The North American and Chinese network surveillance and safety industry is highly competitive, we also face competition from international competitors. Some of our international competitors are larger than us and possess greater name recognition, assets, personnel, sales and financial resources. These entities may be able to respond more quickly to changing market conditions by developing new products and services that meet customer requirements or are otherwise superior to our products and services and may be able to more effectively market their products than we can because they have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we do. They may also be able to devote greater resources than we can to the development, promotion and sale of their products. Increased competition could require us to reduce our prices, result in our receiving fewer customer orders, and result in our loss of market share. We cannot assure you that we will be able to distinguish ourselves in a competitive market. To the extent that we are unable to successfully compete against existing and future competitors, our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.
Our business and reputation as a OEM manufacturer of high quality surveillance products may be adversely affected by product defects or performance.
We believe that we offer high quality products that are reliable and competitively priced. If our products do not perform to specifications, we might be required to redesign or recall those products or pay substantial damages. Such an event could result in significant expenses, disrupt sales and affect our reputation and that of our products. In addition, product defects could result in substantial product liability. We do not have product liability insurance. If we face significant liability claims, our business, financial condition, and results of operations would be adversely affected.
Our product offerings involve a lengthy sales cycle and we may not anticipate sales levels appropriately, which could impair our profitability.
Some of our products and services are designed for medium to large commercial, industrial and government facilities desiring to protect valuable assets and/or prevent intrusion into high security facilities. Given the nature of our products and the customers that purchase them, sales cycles can be lengthy as customers conduct intensive investigations and deliberate between competing technologies and providers. For these and other reasons, the sales cycle associated with some of our products and services is typically lengthy and subject to a number of significant risks over which we have little or no control. If sales in any period fall significantly below anticipated levels, our financial condition and results of operations could suffer.
RISKS RELATED TO DOING BUSINESS IN CHINA
Adverse changes in political and economic policies of the PRC government could impede the overall economic growth of China, which could reduce the demand for our products and damage our business.
Our growth strategy includes acquiring or investing in suitable candidates on acceptable terms in China. We have also from time to time entered into letters of intent to acquire several other companies in China. We also produce our products through an OEM in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are affected significantly by economic, political and legal developments in China. The PRC economy differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including:
|
·
|
the higher level of government involvement;
|
|
·
|
the early stage of development of the market-oriented sector of the economy;
|
|
·
|
the higher level of control over foreign exchange; and
|
|
·
|
the allocation of resources.
|
As the China economy has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy, the China government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. While these measures may benefit the overall China economy, they may also have a negative effect on us.
Although the China government has in recent years implemented measures emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the China government continues to exercise significant control over economic growth in China through the allocation of resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and imposing policies that impact particular industries or companies in different ways.
Any adverse change in the economic conditions or government policies in China could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth and the level of surveillance and safety investments and expenditures in China, which in turn could lead to a reduction in demand for our products and consequently have a material adverse effect on our business and prospects.
Uncertainties with respect to the China legal system could limit the legal protections available to you and us.
Our operating subsidiaries are generally subject to laws and regulations applicable to foreign investments in China and, in particular, laws applicable to foreign-invested enterprises. The China legal system is based on written statutes, and prior court decisions may be cited for reference, but have limited precedential value. Since 1979, a series of new China laws and regulations have significantly enhanced the protections afforded to various forms of foreign investments in China. However, since the China legal system continues to rapidly evolve, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involve uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to you and us. In addition, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and management attention.
China’s government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we conduct our business activities.
China’s government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership. Our ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, import and export tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. We believe that our operations in China are in material compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. However, the central or local governments of the jurisdictions in which we operate may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations.
Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could have a significant effect on economic conditions in China or particular regions thereof and could require us to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese properties or joint ventures.
Restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to receive and use our sales revenue effectively.
Majority of our sales revenue and/or expenses are or will occur in China and be denominated in Renminbi. Under PRC law, the Renminbi is currently convertible under the “current account,” which includes dividends and trade and service-related foreign exchange transactions, but not under the “capital account,” which includes foreign direct investment and loans. In the future, our China operating subsidiaries may purchase foreign currencies for settlement of current account transactions, including payments of dividends to us, without the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (the “SAFE”), by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, the relevant China governmental authorities may limit or eliminate our ability to purchase foreign currencies in the future. Since a significant amount of our future revenue will be denominated in Renminbi, any existing and future restrictions on currency exchange may limit our ability to utilize revenue generated in Renminbi to fund our business activities outside China that are denominated in foreign currencies.
Foreign exchange transactions by China operating subsidiaries under the capital account continue to be subject to significant foreign exchange controls and require the approval of or need to register with PRC government authorities, including SAFE. In particular, if our China operating subsidiaries borrow foreign currency through loans from us or other foreign lenders, these loans must be registered with SAFE, and if we finance the subsidiaries by means of additional capital contributions, these capital contributions must be approved by certain government authorities, including the Ministry of Commerce, or their respective local counterparts. These limitations could affect our China operating subsidiaries’ ability to obtain foreign exchange through debt or equity financing.
We may be unable to complete a business combination transaction efficiently or on favorable terms due to complicated merger and acquisition regulations which became effective on September 8, 2006.
On August 8, 2006, six PRC regulatory agencies, including the CSRC, promulgated the Regulation on Mergers and Acquisitions of Domestic Companies by Foreign Investors, which became effective on September 8, 2006. This new regulation, among other things, governs the approval process by which a China company may participate in an acquisition of assets or equity interests. Depending on the structure of the transaction, the new regulation will require the China parties to make a series of applications and supplemental applications to the government agencies. In some instances, the application process may require the presentation of economic data concerning a transaction, including appraisals of the target business and evaluations of the acquirer, which are designed to allow the government to assess the transaction. Government approvals will have expiration dates by which a transaction must be completed and reported to the government agencies. Compliance with the new regulations is likely to be more time consuming and expensive than in the past and the government can now exert more control over the combination of two businesses. Accordingly, due to the new regulation, our ability to engage in business combination transactions has become significantly more complicated, time consuming and expensive, and we may not be able to negotiate a transaction that is acceptable to our stockholders or sufficiently protect their interests in a transaction.
The new regulation allows China government agencies to assess the economic terms of a business combination transaction. Parties to a business combination transaction may have to submit to the Ministry of Commerce and other relevant government agencies an appraisal report, an evaluation report and the acquisition agreement, all of which form part of the application for approval, depending on the structure of the transaction. The regulations also prohibit a transaction at an acquisition price obviously lower than the appraised value of the China business or assets and in certain transaction structures, require that consideration must be paid within defined periods, generally not in excess of a year. The regulation also limits our ability to negotiate various terms of the acquisition, including aspects of the initial consideration, contingent consideration, holdback provisions, indemnification provisions and provisions relating to the assumption and allocation of assets and liabilities. Transaction structures involving trusts, nominees and similar entities are prohibited. Therefore, such regulation may impede our ability to negotiate and complete a business combination transaction on financial terms that satisfy our investors and protect our stockholders’ economic interests.
In addition to the above risks, in many instances, we will seek to structure transactions in a manner that avoids the need to make applications or a series of applications with Chinese regulatory authorities under these new M&A regulations. If we fail to effectively structure an acquisition in a manner that avoids the need for such applications or if the Chinese government interprets the requirements of the new M&A regulations in a manner different from our understanding of such regulations, then acquisitions that we have effected may be unwound or subject to rescission. Also, if the Chinese government determines that our structure of any of our acquisitions does not comply with these new regulations, then we may also be subject to fines and penalties.
Fluctuations in exchange rates could adversely affect our business and the value of our securities.
The value of our common stock will be indirectly affected by the foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and the Renminbi and between those currencies and other currencies in which our sales may be denominated. Because substantial portion of our earnings and cash assets are dominated in Renminbi and our financial results are reported in U.S. dollars, fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Renminbi will affect our balance sheet and our earnings per share in U.S. dollars. In addition, appreciation or depreciation in the value of the Renminbi relative to the U.S. dollar would affect our financial results reported in U.S. dollar terms without giving effect to any underlying change in our business or results of operations. Fluctuations in the exchange rate will also affect the relative value of any dividend we issue that will be exchanged into U.S. dollars and earnings from, and the value of, any U.S. dollar-denominated investments we make in the future.
Since July 2005, the Renminbi has no longer been pegged to the U.S. dollar. Although the People’s Bank of China regularly intervenes in the foreign exchange market to prevent significant short-term fluctuations in the exchange rate, the Renminbi may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar in the medium to long term. Moreover, it is possible that in the future the China authorities may lift restrictions on fluctuations in the Renminbi exchange rate and lessen intervention in the foreign exchange market.
Very limited hedging transactions are available in China to reduce our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. To date, we have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange risk. While we may enter into hedging transactions in the future, the availability and effectiveness of these transactions may be limited, and we may not be able to successfully hedge our exposure at all. In addition, our foreign currency exchange losses may be magnified by China exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert Renminbi into foreign currencies.
Currently, some of our raw materials, components and major equipment are imported. In the event that the U.S. dollars appreciate against Renminbi, our costs will increase. If we cannot pass the resulting cost increases on to our customers, our profitability and operating results will suffer.
Risks Relating to Our Common Stock
Limitations upon Broker-Dealers Effecting Transactions in "Penny Stocks"
Trading in our common stock is subject to material limitations as a consequence of regulations which limits the activities of broker-dealers effecting transactions in "penny stocks." Pursuant to Rule 3a51-1 under the Exchange Act, our common stock is a "penny stock" because it (i) is not listed on any national securities exchange or The NASDAQ Stock Market™, (ii) has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, and (iii) its issuer (the Company) has net tangible assets less than $2,000,000 (if the issuer has been in business for at least three (3) years) or $5,000,000 (if the issuer has been in business for less than three (3) years).
Rule 15g-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act imposes limitations upon trading activities on "penny stocks", which makes selling our common stock more difficult compared to selling securities which are not "penny stocks." Rule 15a-9 restricts the solicitation of sales of "penny stocks" by broker-dealers unless the broker first (i) obtains from the purchaser information concerning his financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives, (ii) reasonably determines that the purchaser has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters that the person is capable of evaluating the risks of investing in "penny stocks", and (iii) delivers and receives back from the purchaser a manually signed written statement acknowledging the purchaser's investment experience and financial sophistication.
Rules 15g-2 through 15g-6 promulgated under the Exchange Act require broker-dealers who engage in transactions in "penny stocks" first to provide their customers with a series of disclosures and documents, including (i) a standardized risk disclosure document identifying the risks inherent in investing in "penny stocks", (ii) all compensation received by the broker-dealer in connection with the transaction, (iii) current quotation prices and other relevant market data, and (iv) monthly account statements reflecting the fair market value of the securities.
There can be no assurance that any broker-dealer which initiates quotations for the Common Stock will continue to do so, and the loss of any such broker-dealer likely would have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.
No Active or Regular Market
Although our common stock has been quoted on the Pink Sheets since October 31, 1985 and since January 13, 2010, has been included in the OTCBB, there has been only limited and sporadic trading n our stock. Companies quoted for trading on the OTCBB must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Exchange Act and must be current in their reports under Section 13 of the Exchange Act, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTCBB. If our common stock is quoted on the OTCBB, and we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTBB. As a result, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market. In addition, we may be unable to regain our quotation privileges on the OTCBB, which may have an adverse material effect on our business.
Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to the liquidity of any present or future markets that may develop for our common stock, the ability of holders of our common stock to sell our common stock, or the prices at which holders may be able to sell our common stock.
Shares Eligible for Future Sale
The sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock. In addition, any such sale or perception could make it more difficult for us to sell equity, or equity related, securities in the future at a time and price that we deem appropriate. If and when this registration statement becomes effective and we become subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, we might elect to adopt a stock option plan and file a registration statement under the Securities Act registering the shares of common stock reserved for issuance thereunder. Following the effectiveness of any such registration statement, the shares of common stock issued under such plan, other than shares held by affiliates, if any, would be immediately eligible for resale in the public market without restriction.
The sale of shares of our common stock which are not registered under the Securities Act, known as “restricted” shares, typically are effected under Rule 144. At December 31, 2010 we had outstanding an aggregate of 61,481,444 shares of restricted common stock. All of our shares of common stock, except those issued in the last six months, might be sold under Rule 144. No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that future sales of “restricted” shares of our common stock, or the availability of such shares for future sale, will have on the market price of our common stock or our ability to raise capital through an offering of our equity securities.
The sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock. In addition, any such sale or perception could make it more difficult for us to sell equity, or equity related, securities in the future at a time and price that we deem appropriate. If and when this registration statement becomes effective and we become subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, we might elect to adopt a stock option plan and file a registration statement under the Securities Act registering the shares of common stock reserved for issuance thereunder. Following the effectiveness of any such registration statement, the shares of common stock issued under such plan, other than shares held by affiliates, if any, would be immediately eligible for resale in the public market without restriction.
No Dividends
We never have paid any dividends on our common stock and we do not intend to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future.

Fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 compared to fiscal year ended March 31, 2009
Revenues. We had revenues of $15,717 in FY 2010 and revenues of $20,820 in FY 2009 as FY 2009 was devoted to product design and establishing a business model in Canada and FY 2010, especially its last few months, was devoted to establishing a large operation in the People’s Republic of China. The results in the 2010 FY as described below, reflect management’s decision to concentrate on the Company’s efforts to enter the larger Chinese market rather than pursue further development of the Canadian market. Management believes that the Chinese market, which is much larger than the Canadian market will enable the Company to enjoy greater revenues in the future. On filed February 5, 2010 filed a Current Report on Form 8-K indicating that we had made several acquisitions to facilitate our entry into the Chinese market. Due to various unforeseen circumstances and the need for various governmental approvals, the acquisitions were not completed until late May 2010. Accordingly, we are in the early stages of developing the Chinese market we expect that revenues and results will fluctuate from quarter to quarter.. We anticipate opening retail stress in China during calendar 2010. The costs of opening a Company operated store include inventory, real estate costs, employee expense and promotional expenses such as advertising. The costs to open a Company owned in China anticipated to be approximately $10,000 per retail store. The size and scope of each of these programs will be governed by management’s assessment of the Company’s capital resources and cannot be specified at this time.
Cost of Sales; Gross Profit. Our cost of sales in FY 2010 was $5,376, yielding a gross profit of 10,341 or 58.o% of sales. Our cost of sales in FY 2009 was $14,790, yielding a gross profit of 6,030 or 28.0% of sales. Both of these results and ratios are from an early stage operation and management does not believe that significant conclusions should be drawn from these limited results.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses decreased to remained fairly constant increasing to $359,439 in FY 2010 from $357,498 in FY 2009 as decreases in general and administrative expense, research and development and advertising were partially offset by increased commissions, payroll and professional fees. Again, as the operations are in an early stage management would caution against drawing any significant conclusions from these limited results.
Net Loss; Comprehensive Loss
Our net loss and comprehensive loss consists of two parts: net operating gain (loss) and foreign currency translation adjustments. Because all our transactions are recorded in Canadian dollars, we need to exchange them into US dollar using the exchange rate for different period when we release the financial statements to the public. If the exchange rate fluctuates and if we have a large balance of assets, liabilities or equity, the foreign currency translation adjustment will be large. As we increase our operation in the Peoples Republic of China, these factors may be more pronounced.
For the 2009 FY, the net loss was $(350,455), but foreign currency translation adjustment loss was s $(270,752), so the comprehensive loss was $(621,201). (Because we have substantial intangible assets the foreign transaction adjustment is large). For FY 2010, the net loss was $(369,579) but foreign currency translation adjustment gain was $318,717 so the comprehensive loss was $(50,862) (Because we have substantial intangible assets the foreign transaction adjustment is large) Our foreign currency adjustment was favorably impacted by the increased strength of the Canadian Dollar.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We had cash and cash equivalents of $4,398,282 as of December 31, 2010, as compared to $31,756 as of March 31, 2010, an increase of $4,366,526. The increase cash and cash equivalents during the nine months ended December 31, 2010 was primarily attributable to proceeds from the sale of common stock of $6,717,444, which was partially offset by cash used in operations of $1,700,121, purchases of equipment and furniture of $151,564, purchases of subsidiary of $592,756 and repayment to related parties of $51,716.
Net cash used in operating activities was $1,700,121 for the nine months ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $315,994 for the nine months ended December 31, 2009. The increase in cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to our net loss, as well as changes in working capital for the nine months ended December 31, 2010.
Net cash used in investing activities was $744,320 for the nine months ended December 31, 2010, as compared to $69,998 for the nine months ended December 31, 2009. Main components of cash flows from investing activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2010 included cash of $151,564 used in purchases of equipment and furniture and $592,756 of purchase of subsidiary, net of cash acquired. Main components of cash flows from investing activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2009 included capitalized intangible assets of $36,659 and $29,485 of purchase of subsidiary, net of cash acquired.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $6,665,728 for the nine months ended December 31, 2010 as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $502,000 for the nine months ended December 31, 2009. Significant components of cash flows from financing activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2010 included $6,717,444 of proceeds from the issuance of our common stock, offset by $51,716 of repayment to related parties. Cash flows from financing activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2009 consisted included $357,649 of proceeds from the issuance of our common stock and $144,351 of proceeds from related parties.
We have funded our activities to date primarily through the sales of surveillance and safety products and systems and the issuance of equity securities.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various other factors and circumstances. Management believes that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances; however, actual results may vary from these estimates and assumptions under different future circumstances. We have identified the following critical accounting policies that affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
For further discussion of our significant accounting policies, refer to Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our consolidated financial statements.
Allowance for doubtful accounts
Accounts and notes receivable balance is recorded net of allowances for amounts not expected to be collected from customers. Because the Company’s accounts and notes receivable are typically unsecured, the Company periodically evaluates the collectability of accounts based on a combination of factors, including a particular customer’s ability to pay as well as the age of the receivables. To evaluate a specific customer’s ability to pay, the Company analyzes financial statements, payment history, third-party credit analysis reports and various information or disclosures by the customer or other publicly available information. In cases where the evidence suggests a customer may not be able to satisfy its obligation to the Company, a specific allowance that is determined to be appropriate for the perceived risk would be established. If the financial condition of customers deteriorates, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PRODCECURES
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, as ours are designed to do, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
As of December 31, 2010, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, our Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in enabling us to record, process, summarize and report information required to be included in our periodic SEC filings within the required time period.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls
There were no changes in our internal controls and procedures in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2010. Based on that evaluation, our officers concluded that as of December 31, 2010, and as of the date that the evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was completed, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to satisfy the objectives for which they are intended.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including James Fitzsimons, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based upon the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting is effective, as of December 31, 2010.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Compensation of Directors
The Company has no standard arrangements in place or currently contemplated to compensate the Company’s directors for their service as directors or as members of any committee of directors.
Employment Agreements
Mr. Jonathan Zeng has a three year employment agreement with the Company which began on August 20, 2010 when he served as Chief Operation Officer of one of our subsidiaries. Mr. Zeng is paid a salary of $100,000 per annum and his agreement contains standard non-compete and confidentiality provisions.
Mr. Paul Lau has a three year employment agreement with the Company which began on March 1, 2011 when he served as Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Lau is paid a salary of $100,000 per annum and his agreement contains standard non-compete and confidentiality provisions and provides for issuing a total of 200,000 stock options to Mr. Lau.
We do not have employment agreements with any other of our executive officers or directors. We have verbal understandings with our executive officers regarding monthly retainers and reimbursement for actual out-of-pocket expenses.
Termination of Employment
There are no compensatory plans or arrangements, including payments to be received from the Company, with respect to any person named in the Summary Compensation Table set forth above that would in any way result in payments to any such person because of his or her resignation, retirement or other termination of such person’s employment with us.
Employee Benefit Plans
On October 1, 2008, the board of directors adopted the Company's Stock Option Plan. The Company has reserved 1,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance upon exercise of options granted from time to time under the stock option plan. The stock option plan is intended to assist the Company in securing and retaining key employees, directors and consultants by allowing them to participate in the Company's ownership and growth through the grant of incentive and non-qualified options. Under the stock option plan, the Company may grant incentive stock options only to key employees and employee directors, or the Company may grant non-qualified options to employees, officers, directors and consultants. The stock option plan is currently administered by the Company's board of directors. Subject to the provisions of the stock option plan, the board will determine who shall receive options, the number of shares of common stock that may be purchased under the options. As at December 31, 2010, the Company has granted 140,000 shares options.
Indemnification of Directors and Executive Officers and Limitation of Liability
Nevada law generally permits us to indemnify our directors, officers, employees and agents. Pursuant to the provisions of Nevada Revised Statutes 78.7502, we, as a corporation organized in Nevada, may indemnify our directors, officers, employees and agents in accordance with the following:
(a) A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation, against expenses, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he: (a) is not liable for breach of his fiduciary duties as a director or officer pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
(b) A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he: (a) is not liable for breach of his fiduciary duties pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals there from, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.
(c) To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation shall indemnify him against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense.
Charter Provisions, Bylaws and Other Arrangements of the Registrant
Our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, does not contain any specific language enhancing or limiting the Nevada statutory provisions referred to above.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy and is, therefore, unenforceable.
ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP of CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS and MANAGEMENT and RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.

Changes in Control
We know of no contractual arrangements which may at a subsequent date result in a change of control in the Company.
ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS and RELATED TRANSACTIONS, and DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE.
Upon its formation in 2006, CANCSI acquired certain intangible assets consisting of technical know- how and software and non-compete agreements from Canada Landmark Enterprise Group, Inc., a corporation owned by Weixing Wang and Yan Wang for 13,890 shares of CANVSI common stock. In July 2009, these shares were exchanged for the same number of shares of the Company upon the closing of a reorganization agreement described below. See Notes to Financial Statements, Note 1(m).
In May 2009, the Company and CANVSI and all of the shareholders of CANVSI entered into an agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) that provided that all of the holders of CANVSI would exchange their shares for shares of the Company on a one for one basis so that CNVSI would become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Weixing Wang and Yan Wang became shareholders, officers and directors of the Company by reason of the Securities Purchase Agreement closing in July 2009.
Director Independence
We believe that the following director of our company is considered “independent” under Rule 400(a)(15) of the National Association of Securities Dealers listing standards: Daniel Sze-Yuen Lee.
ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES and SERVICES.
Audit Fees
The aggregate fees billed by the Company’s auditors for professional services rendered in connection with the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements and reviews of the financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-Q or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 was $78,500.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
ANV Security Group, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ANV Security Group Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 and the related consolidated statements of operation, changes in shareholders’ deficit and cash flows for the 9-months period from April 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010 and fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ANV Security Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 and the results of its operation and its cash flows for the 9-months period from April 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010 and fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
|
These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in US dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is December 31.
|
b)
|
Principles of Consolidation
|
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and all of its subsidiaries. The Company consolidates companies in which it has controlling interest of over 50%. All significant intercompany accounts, transactions and cash flows have been eliminated on consolidation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP” or “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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets, donated expenses, and deferred income tax valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
Certain account reclassifications have been made to the financial statements of the prior year in order to conform to classifications used in the current year. These changes had no impact on previously stated financial statements of the Company.
|
e)
|
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
|
In accordance with FASB ASC 220-10-55, comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company’s only components of comprehensive income during the nine-months ended December 31, 2010 and fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 were net loss and the foreign currency translation adjustment.
|
f)
|
Cash and Cash Equivalents
|
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances and certificates of deposit having a maturity date of three months or less upon acquisition.
|
g)
|
Concentration of Credit Risks
|
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and trade accounts receivable. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions in Asia and Canada. The Company has not experienced any losses in such bank accounts through December 31, 2010. At December 31, 2010, our bank deposits were as follows:

In an effort to mitigate any potential risk, the Company periodically evaluates the credit quality of the financial institutions at which it holds deposits.
Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses. The Company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, customer's historical payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection.
Inventories are stated at the lower of average cost or market and consist of raw materials and finished goods. The Company writes down inventory for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory based upon assumptions and estimates about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by the Company, additional inventory write-downs may be required.
GST receivable represents tax credit that the Canadian Company receives when the Company pays GST tax during normal operations. As of December 31, 2010, the Company had a GST tax receivable of $6,046.
|
k)
|
Prepayment and deposits
|

|
l)
|

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 350 (formerly SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets), according to which goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are not amortized, but are reviewed annually for impairment, or more frequently, if indications of possible impairment exist. The Company has performed the requisite annual transitional impairment tests on intangible assets and made the impairment adjustments as necessary.
Intangible assets consist of two parts. The first is a surveillance recording system, surveillance software, technical know-how and non-compete agreements, developed by Jiwei Zhang, Xianbo Fu, Kewei Feng, Mingyue Fan (all individuals), acquired originally by Landmark Enterprise Group Inc.(“Landmark”) , a related party, and subsequently sold to the Company in exchange for common shares. The value of intangible assets acquired from Landmark was established by an independent valuation report. The second part is incorporation cost of Shell Company purchasing. Intangible assets are depreciated on a straight line basis over an estimated useful life of five years.
In accordance with ASC 360, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the Company is required to review its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. The Company estimates fair value based on the information available in making whatever estimates, judgments and projections are considered necessary. There was no impairment of long-lived assets during the nine months ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measures
|
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.
Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other then quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, advance to vendors, accounts payable and other accrued expenses, and advances from customers approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605, which requires that revenue be recognized when it is earned and either realized or realizable. In general, the Company generates revenue from the delivery of professional services and records revenues when the services are completed, already collected or collectability is reasonably assured, there is no future obligation and there is remote chance of future claim or refund to the customers. It is reported net of business taxes and refunds.
The Company utilizes ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
ASC 740-10-25 prescribes a more-likely-than-not threshold for consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return. It also provides guidance on the recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, accounting for income taxes in interim periods and income tax disclosures. There are no material uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2010.

Foreign Currency Translation
|
The Company’s financial information is presented in US dollars. The functional currencies of the Company and its subsidiaries include the United States dollar (“US$”), Hong Kong dollar, Canadian dollar and Renminbi (“RMB”).
The financial statements of the Company have been translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with FASB ASC 830-30 “Translation of Financial Statements”. The financial information is first prepared in functional currencies and then is translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenue and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transactions occurred. The effects of foreign currency translation adjustments are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity.
The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US dollars at the rates used in translation.

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
|
Earnings per share
The Company computes earnings per share (“EPS’) in accordance with ASC 260 “Earnings per Share” (“ASC 260”), and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (“SAB 98”). ASC 260 requires companies with complex capital structures to present basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as net income divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is similar to basic EPS but presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares (e.g., convertible securities, options and warrants) as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.
Basic net earnings (loss) per share equals net earnings (loss) divided by the weighted average shares outstanding during the year. The computation of diluted net earnings per share does not include dilutive common stock equivalents in the weighted average shares outstanding as they would be anti-dilutive. The Company’s common stock equivalents at December 31, 2010, March 31, 2010 and 2009 include the following:

Note 5. Goodwill and other Intangible Assets
Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable. Recoverability of goodwill is measured at the reporting unit level by comparing the reporting unit's carrying amount, including goodwill, to the fair value of the reporting unit, which is measured based upon, among other factors, market multiples for comparable companies as well as a discounted cash flow analysis. If the recorded value of the assets, including goodwill, and liabilities ("net book value") of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss may be required to be recognized. Further, to the extent the net book value of the Company as a whole is greater than its market capitalization, all, or a significant portion of its goodwill may be considered impaired. The Company completed its annual impairment test during its fourth quarter of fiscal year carrying value.
Pursuant to the accounting guidance for goodwill and other intangible assets, the measurement of impairment of goodwill consists of two steps. In the first step, the fair value of the Company is compared to its carrying value. In connection with the preparation of interim financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2010, management completed a valuation of the Company, which incorporated existing market-based considerations as well as a discounted cash flow methodology based on current results and projections, and concluded the estimated fair value of the Company was less than its net book value. Accordingly the guidance required a second step to determine the implied fair value of the Company's goodwill, and to compare it to the carrying value of the Company's goodwill. This second step included valuing all of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of the Company as if it had been acquired in a business combination, including valuing all of the Company's intangible assets even if they were not currently recorded to determine the implied fair value of goodwill. The result of this assessment indicated that the implied fair value of goodwill as of that date was zero
The following table summarizes the activity in the Company's goodwill account during fiscal years 2010 and March 31, 2010 and 2009:

Management believes that the realization of the benefits from these losses appears uncertain due to the Company's continuing losses for income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset benefit to reduce the asset to zero. Management will review this valuation allowance periodically and make adjustments as warranted.

Note 11. Operating Risk
(a) Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially expose the ANV Security Group Inc. (the “Company” or “ANV”) to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash, accounts and notes receivable. The Company places its cash with financial institutions with high credit ratings.
(b) Country risk
Revenues of the Company are mainly derived from the sale in Asia & Canada. The Company hopes to expand its operations to countries outside the Canada, however, such expansion has not been commenced and there are no assurances that the Company will be able to achieve such an expansion successfully. Therefore, a downturn or stagnation in the economic environment of Canada could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition.
(c) Product risk
ANV might have to compete with larger companies who have greater funds available for expansion, marketing, research and development and the ability to attract more qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that ANV will remain competitive should this occur.
(d) Exchange risk
The Company cannot guarantee that the current exchange rate will remain steady, therefore there is a possibility that the Company could post the same amount of profit for two comparable periods and because of a fluctuating exchange rate actually post higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of Canadian dollars converted to U.S. dollars on that date. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in the political and economic environments without notice.
(e) Key personnel risk
The Company's future success depends on the continued services of Mr. Wilson Wang. CEO and Matt Li, CTO. The loss of one of their service would be detrimental to the Company and could have an adverse effect on business development. The Company does not currently maintain key man insurance on their life but plan to implement in near future. Future success is also dependent on the ability to identify, hire, train and retain other qualified managerial and other employees.
Note 12. Segment Information
The following information is presented in accordance with SFAS No. 131, Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. In the nine months ended December 31, 2010, the Company had only sale of security devise and units actually generated sale and accordingly the Company had a single operating segment during the reporting period.
