The Company is focused on developing a portfolio of Cloud Computing software technologies and Application Services to address the needs of ISV’s, Data Center providers, as well as commercial and government organizations. GBSX is pursuing an aggressive growth strategy based upon highly targeted mergers and acquisitions so as to build its portfolio of technologies, applications, and services.
On January 6, 2011, the Company acquired majority control (50.1%) of GROUP Business Software AG (“GROUP”), a Frankfurt listed publicly-traded company (INW) headquartered in Eisenach, Germany whose core business is focused on serving IBM’s Lotus Notes & Domino market where it has become IBM’s worlds’ largest provider of business application solutions. GROUP has also developed a ‘market changing’ Cloud Automation Platform (GroupLive) that is deployed in IBM’s Data Centers and has also developed certain IBM specific software tools that allows IBM Lotus Software Group and its partners to rapidly and cost-effectively convert their customers existing Lotus based applications, avoiding any data migration and enable their customers to improve user experience. The use of modern XPages based Lotus Software applications allows customers to leverage self-service capabilities, benefit from IBM’s latest Lotus release features, and to be automatically ‘cloud’ ready. This Application Transformation technology (GBS Evolution™ product suite) dramatically increases IBM’s Lotus Software solutions competitiveness against providers such as Google, Salesforce, and others.
GROUP’s ongoing businesses will serve as the foundation for GBSX to achieve its strategic objectives. GBSX will leverage its technologies, partnerships and customer base to develop GROUP’s successful business strategy and operations in North America and Asia and expand its existing European operations. In particular, the Company will concentrate on rapidly evolving GROUP as a major provider of Cloud Automation Platform (CAP) Technology software and IBM Lotus Notes/Domino Application Transformation Services.
GROUP’s market changing’ Cloud Automation Platform (Group Live) is deployed in IBM’s Data Centers and it’s specific software tools that allows IBM and the IBM Lotus Notes/Domino partners to automatically convert their customers Lotus based applications automatically into modern web 2.0 styled, ‘cloud’ ready applications.

GROUP is in the stages of finalizing an OEM contract with IBM’s Global Services Outsourcing Division which is expected, although no assurances can be made, that would result in a positive effect on the Company’s revenues. Beginning in the first quarter of 2011, GROUP Live will be available for IBM to target a direct customer base of 3,000 European midsized companies. The anticipated roll out is planned to begin in mid-year 2011 in IBM’s Data Centers, which, has an estimated target market of an additional 10,000 customers.
Furthermore, GROUP is currently negotiating a Reseller Agreement with IBM’s Lotus Software Division that would make it possible for IBM to bundle specific technology developed by GROUP and sell them as an integrated product solution through IBM sales channel. This bundle will allow IBM to provide its cloud based Lotus email solution customer base (IBM Lotus Live) to transform and run all their existing Lotus based applications in the cloud. The Reseller Agreement would provide GROUP with ongoing subscription and service based revenues.
In addition to the significant growth potential anticipated through its multiple partnerships with IBM, GROUP also has the potential for dramatic growth from large strategic partnerships such as with major OEM players, data centers, ISV’s as well as a variety of large enterprise class and medium sized end users who are interested in having their own private clouds. GROUP also intends pursue highly attractive opportunities with a wide variety of other vendors including Computer Associates, Dell, HP, Accenture, and Amazon, as well as with specialized distributors and system integrators.

GROUP’s operations and corresponding revenue streams are well diversified. For fiscal year 2012, the Company expects to generate more than 85% of its revenue from a combination of license sales, services and maintenance. Service and maintenance revenues, which are recurring in nature and highly predictable year-over-year, account for nearly 60% of the Company’s total revenue. The Company’s service revenues include the design, implementation, integration and training for its collaboration management systems. Due to the custom designed nature of the Company’s products, essentially all clients utilize GROUP’s skilled service team to implement its systems. The other major component of the Company’s recurring revenue, maintenance, is typically paid on an annual basis and is typically negotiated under contracts for two to three years. The Company estimates approximately 98% of its installed base maintain a maintenance contract for the Company’s solutions.
Our Customers
GROUP caters primarily to mid-market and enterprise-size organizations having over 3,500 customers in thirty-eight countries spanning four continents, representing more than 5,000,000 active users of its products. GROUP’s customers include Abbot, Ernst & Young, Deutsche Bank, Bayer, HBSC, Merck and Toyota. GROUP provides Cloud Computing technology, IBM Lotus Notes/Domino Application Transformation technology, Email Management software, Lotus Software Services, Customer Relationship Management software and Risk & Compliance Management solutions. Headquartered in Eisenach, Germany the Company has offices throughout Europe and North America.
Dependence on IBM
We, through our 50.1% ownership of GROUP Business Software AG, are the world’s largest supplier of applications for IBM’s Lotus Notes and Domino markets. GROUP also markets its Cloud Automation Platform (CAP) and Domino Application Transfer (DAT) software which automatically transforms applications to the Cloud. We expect much of our growth in the near term to come from our CAP and DAT solutions. Should IBM choose not to promote these products, we might not see the growth we are anticipating and our business could be materially adversely affected resulting.
Employees
Joerg Ott serves as the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of our Company. Mr. Ott is also a Co-Chief Executive Officer and director of GROUP. Ronald Everett serves as the Chief Financial Officer of the Company on a part-time basis. Gary MacDonald serves in the capacity of Executive Vice President and Chief Development Officer of the Company as well as GROUP. There are no other persons who work for the Company.
The disclosure below pertains to the research and development activities of GROUP, our 50.1% subsidiary:
As of December 31, 2010, there were around 155 employees working at GROUP (previous year: 174 Employees). The decrease in the average number of employees has to do with the sale of GROUP Business Software Holding OY and its subsidiary Gedys IntraWare GmbH effective March 1, 2010. The average employee numbers include neither trainees nor Board members.
The breakdown into the individual segments can be taken from the following overview:
| Capacity | Partial Capacity | Personnel As of December 31, |
| 2010 | 2009 |
| Customer-Oriented Area | Service | 48 | 59 |
| Sales | 32 | 39 |
| Marketing | 5 | 6 |
| Total Customer-Oriented Area | 85 | 103 |
| Research and Development | 53 | 51 |
| Management and Administration | 18 | 20 |
| Total Corporation | 155 | 174 |

Seasonal
Our business is not seasonal.
Intellectual Property
As of March 31, 2011, we did not have any patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises or concessions.
Research and Development
For the fiscal years ended March 30, 2011 and 2010, we did not spend any money in research and development.
The disclosure below pertains to the research and development activities of GROUP, our 50.1% subsidiary:
The main focus of R&D in 2010 was to provide for the future success of the GBS offering. Development teams around the globe namely in the US, Canada, Germany, UK, Denmark and Bulgaria have been intensively working on the next generation offering especially for GBS Transformer and Group Live.
The overall R&D spending by GROUP in 2010 was $ 4,924,148. Due to the sale of Gedys IntraWare GmbHs business in early 2010 the amount in 2009 was slightly higher. It was $5,486,726.
Competition
The competitive landscape in the enterprise data center market is intense and changing, and we expect there will be a new class of very large, well-financed, and aggressive competitors, each bringing its own new class of products to address this new market. We also expect to see acquisitions, further industry consolidation, and new alliances among companies as they seek to serve the enterprise data center market.
The competition within each market segment in which GBS operates is described as follows:
GBS Applications:
| · | Essentially the market can seek out other Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) for 'point' solutions such as CRM. The Company’s strength is having the most complete portfolio of applications in the market coupled with the most Lotus Notes Applications experience in the industry that is devoted to applications. |

| · | As the Lotus market matures, IBM could incorporate new features into the Lotus platform with the consequence of providing some of the same functions that GBS is providing |

GBS Experts
| · | There are many companies that offer professional Information Technology services including IBM ISSL and many regional players that contract out their programmers to provide application development services and support. The Company’s advantage is the extensive Lotus specific experience of our Experts who aside from having worked in this market for years are also some of the leading 'thought' leaders in the Lotus market (three of which were just recognized as "IBM Champions" by IBM for their knowledge, innovation and contribution to the Lotus market. |

GBS Cloud Computing Division (GROUP Live and the Transformer)
| · | In terms of the Company’s cloud platform there are many competitors offering Cloud Management platforms including VMWare, HP, Novell, Amazon and Salesforce.com. However, GBS has been positioned as a technology leader among those same vendors. And based on the Gartner’s criteria and road map for PaaS architectures, the Company’s cloud technology is 36 months ahead of the competition. |

| · | There is no single technology capability like the Transformer on the market so competition in this segment is minimal or non-existent. The only alternative for a customer to convert from Lotus is to manually transform Lotus applications from Lotus into JavaXPages. Based on this environment, the customer sometimes becomes the only competition. |

2011 Private Placement
On March 11, 2011 and March 29, 2011, the Company consummated a private placement offering of an aggregate of 6,044,000 Units at a purchase price of $1.25 per Unit, for gross proceeds of $7,555,000. Each Unit was comprised of one share of Common Stock and one three-year Warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The Warrants are only exercisable by the payment of cash.
Pursuant to the terms of the Warrants, the holders of the Warrants are required to exercise their Warrants in the event our Common Stock trades at an average of at least $3.00 per share for a period of not less than 20 consecutive trading days. Also, throughout the three year exercise period of the Warrants, the Company has the right to redeem the Warrants for $0.05 per share. The Company has agreed to register the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on a Registration Statement on Form S-1. As of March 31, 2011, none of the Warrants have been exercised or redeemed.
If the Company at any time subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the shares of Common Stock acquirable upon the exercise of the Warrants into a greater number of shares, then, after the date of record for effecting such subdivision, the exercise price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. If the Company at any time combines (by any reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the shares of Common Stock acquirable hereunder into a smaller number of shares, then, after the date of record for effecting such combination, the exercise price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately increased. Upon each adjustment of the exercise price pursuant to the provision above, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants shall be adjusted by multiplying a number equal to the exercise price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment by the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment and dividing the product so obtained by the adjusted exercise price. No adjustment of the exercise price shall be made in an amount of less than 1% of the exercise price in effect at the time such adjustment is otherwise required to be made, but any such lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment which, together with any adjustments so carried forward, shall amount to not less than 1% of such exercise price.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this annual report before making an investment decision with regard to our securities.
Risks Related to Our Business
We have a limited operational history.
We have a limited history upon which an evaluation of our prospects and future performance can be made. Our proposed operations are subject to all business risks associated with new enterprises. The likelihood of our success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications, and delays frequently encountered in connection with the expansion of a business operation in an emerging industry, and the continued development of advertising, promotions, and a corresponding customer base. There is a possibility that we could sustain losses in the future, and there are no assurances that we will ever operate profitably.
Ongoing uncertainty regarding the duration and extent of the recovery from the recent economic downturn and in global economic conditions generally may reduce information technology spending below current expectations and therefore adversely impact our revenues, impede end user adoption of new products and product upgrades and adversely impact our competitive position.
Our business depends on the overall demand for information technology and on the economic health of our current and prospective customers. The purchase of our products is often discretionary and may involve a significant commitment of capital and other resources. Weak economic conditions or significant uncertainty regarding the recovery from the recent economic downturn could adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations in a number of ways, including by lengthening sales cycles (for example, ELAs), lowering prices for our products and services, reducing unit sales, decreasing or reversing quarterly growth in our revenues, reducing the rate of adoption of our products by new customers and the willingness of current customers to purchase upgrades to our existing products.
The recent global economic disruption also resulted in general and ongoing tightening in the credit markets, lower levels of liquidity and increases in the rates of default and bankruptcy, while the potential for extreme volatility in credit, equity and fixed income markets continues. As a result, current or potential customers may be unable to fund software purchases, which could cause them to delay, decrease or cancel purchases of our products and services. Even if customers are willing to purchase our products and services, if they do not meet our credit requirements, we may not be able to record accounts receivable or deferred revenue or recognize revenues from these customers until we receive payment, which could adversely affect the amount of revenues we are able to recognize in a particular period.
7
Our business could be adversely impacted by conditions affecting the information technology market.
The demand for our products and services depends substantially upon the general demand for business-related computer appliances and software, which fluctuates based on numerous factors, including capital spending levels, the spending levels and growth of our current and prospective customers, and general economic conditions. Fluctuations in the demand for our products and services could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Moreover, the purchase of our products is often discretionary and may involve a significant commitment of capital and other resources. Future economic projections for the information technology sector are uncertain as companies continue to reassess their spending for technology projects. If an uncertain environment for information technology spending continues, it could negatively impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We face intense competition, which could result in fewer customer orders and reduced revenues and margins.
We sell our products in intensely competitive markets. Some of our competitors and potential competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, sales and marketing and other resources than we do. As the markets for our products and services continue to develop, additional companies, including companies with significant market presence in the computer appliances, software and networking industries, could enter the markets in which we compete and further intensify competition. In addition, we believe price competition could become a more significant competitive factor in the future. As a result, we may not be able to maintain our historic prices and margins, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We are highly dependent on the services of Joerg Ott, our President, CEO and Chairman.
Our success depends and will depend on the efforts and abilities of key personnel, such as high qualified software developers, service consultants and management, especially Mr. Joerg Ott, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman. The loss of Mr. Ott would have a material adverse effect on us.
If we lose key personnel or cannot hire enough qualified employees in certain areas of our business, our ability to manage our business could be adversely affected.
Our success depends, in large part, upon the services of a number of key employees in certain areas of our business. Except for certain key employees, we do not have long-term employment agreements with any of our key personnel. Any officer or employee can terminate his or her relationship with us at any time. The effective management of our growth, if any, could depend upon our ability to retain our highly-skilled managerial, technical, sales and services, finance and marketing personnel in certain areas of our business. If any of those employees leave, we will need to attract and retain replacements for them. We also may need to add key personnel in the future, including in certain key areas of our business. The market for these qualified employees is competitive. We could find it difficult to successfully attract, assimilate or retain sufficiently qualified personnel in sufficient numbers. Furthermore, we may hire key personnel in connection with our future acquisitions; however, any of these employees will be able to terminate his or her relationship with us at any time. If we cannot retain and add the necessary staff and resources for these acquired businesses, our ability to develop acquired products, markets and customers could be adversely affected. Also, we may need to hire additional personnel to develop new products, product enhancements and technologies. If we cannot add the necessary staff and resources, our ability to develop future enhancements and features to our existing or future products could be delayed. Any delays could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We are highly dependent on IBM.
We, through our 50.1% ownership of GROUP Business Software AG, are the world’s largest supplier of applications for IBM’s Lotus Notes and Domino markets. GROUP also markets its Cloud Automation Platform (CAP) and Domino Application Transfer (DAT) software which automatically transforms applications to the Cloud. We expect much of our growth in the near term to come from our CAP and DAT solutions. Should IBM choose not to promote these products, we might not see the growth we are anticipating and our business could be materially adversely affected resulting in the loss of some or all of your investment in our Common Stock.
We may not be able to manage our growth effectively.
We must continually implement and improve our products and/or services, operations, operating procedures and quality controls on a timely basis, as well as expand, train, motivate and manage our work force in order to accommodate anticipated growth and compete effectively in our market segment. Successful implementation of our strategy also requires that we establish and manage a competent, dedicated work force and employ additional key employees in corporate management, product design, client service and sales. We can give no assurance that our personnel, systems, procedures and controls will be adequate to support our existing and future operations. If we fail to implement and improve these operations, there could be a material, adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.
8
If we do not develop new products and services or enhancements to our existing products and services, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.
The markets for our products and services are characterized by:
| • | rapid technological change; |

| • | evolving industry standards; |

| • | fluctuations in customer demand; |

| • | changes in customer requirements; and |

| • | frequent new product and service introductions and enhancements. |

Our future success depends on our ability to continually enhance our current products and services and develop and introduce new products and services that our customers choose to buy. If we are unable to keep pace with technological developments and customer demands by introducing new products and services and enhancements, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected. Our future success could be hindered by:
| • | delays in our introduction of new products and services; |

| • | delays in market acceptance of new products and services or new releases of our current products and services; and |

| • | our, or a competitor’s, announcement of new product or service enhancements or technologies that could replace or shorten the life cycle of our existing product and service offerings. |

In order for a number of our products to succeed in the future, we believe the demand for technology will need to shift from the types of products and services we and our competitors have sold in the past to a new generation of products we now offer. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to respond effectively to technological changes or new product announcements by others. If we experience material delays or sales shortfalls with respect to our new products and services or new releases of our current products and services, those delays or shortfalls could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
We may be unable to effectively control our operating expenses, which could negatively impact our profitability.
Although we endeavor to effectively control our operating expenses, these expenses, which are based on estimated revenue levels, are relatively fixed in the short term. We cannot assure you that our operating expenses will be lower than our estimated or actual revenues in any given quarter or that we will not incur unanticipated expenses. If we experience a shortfall in revenue in any given quarter or if we incur material unanticipated expenses, we likely will not be able to further reduce operating expenses quickly in response. Any significant shortfall in revenue or the incurrence of material unanticipated expenses could immediately and adversely affect our results of operations for that quarter. Also, due to the fixed nature of many of our expenses and the challenges for revenue growth in the current environment, our income from operations and cash flows from operating and investing activities could be lower than in recent years.
In addition, to the extent our revenue grows, if at all, we believe that our cost of revenues and certain operating expenses could also increase. We believe that we could incur additional costs as we develop, license or buy new technologies or enhancements to our existing products and services. These added costs and royalties could increase our cost of revenues and operating expenses and lower our gross margins. However, we cannot currently quantify the costs for such transactions that have not yet occurred or of these developing trends in our business. In addition, we may need to use a substantial portion of our cash and investments or issue additional shares of our common stock to fund these additional costs.
Acquisitions present many risks, and we may not realize the financial and strategic goals we anticipate at the time of an acquisition.
9
Our growth is dependent upon market growth, our ability to enhance existing products and services, and our ability to introduce new products and services on a timely basis. We intend to continue to address the need to develop new products and services and enhance existing products and services through acquisitions of other companies, product lines and/or technologies. However, acquisitions, including those of high-technology companies, are inherently risky. We cannot provide any assurance that any of our previous acquisitions, including our acquisition of the assets of Lotus Holdings and 50.1% GROUP, or future acquisitions will be successful in helping us reach our financial and strategic goals either for that acquisition or for us generally or that the combined company resulting from any acquisition will continue to support the growth achieved by the companies separately.
The risks we may encounter in managing and integrating acquisitions are:
| • | difficulties and delays integrating the operations, technologies, and products of the acquired companies; |

| • | undetected errors or unauthorized use of a third-party’s code in products of the acquired companies; |

| • | the diversion of management’s attention from normal daily operations of the business; |

| • | potential difficulties in completing projects associated with purchased in-process research and development; |

| • | entry into markets in which we have no or limited direct prior experience and where competitors have stronger market positions and which are highly competitive; |

| • | the potential loss of key employees of the acquired company; and |

| • | an uncertain revenue and earnings stream from the acquired company, which could unexpectedly dilute our earnings. |

Our failure to manage growth effectively and successfully integrate acquired companies due to these or other factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
Attractive acquisition opportunities may not be available to us, which could negatively affect the growth of our business.
Our business strategy includes the selective acquisition of businesses and technologies, such as our acquisition of GROUP in November 2010 and January 2011. We plan to continue to seek opportunities to expand our product portfolio, customer base, technology, and technical talent through acquisitions. However, we may not have the opportunity to make suitable acquisitions on favorable terms in the future, which could negatively impact the growth of our business. We expect that other companies in our industry will compete with us to acquire compatible businesses. This competition could increase prices for businesses and technologies that we would likely pursue, and our competitors may have greater resources than we do to complete these acquisitions.
We could change our licensing programs or subscription renewal programs, which could negatively impact the timing of our recognition of revenue.
We continually re-evaluate our licensing programs and subscription renewal programs, including specific license models, delivery methods, and terms and conditions, to market our current and future products and services. We could implement new licensing programs and subscription renewal programs, including promotional trade-up programs or offering specified enhancements to our current and future product and service lines. Such changes could result in deferring revenue recognition until the specified enhancement is delivered or at the end of the contract term as opposed to upon the initial shipment or licensing of our software product. We could implement different licensing models in certain circumstances, for which we would recognize licensing fees over a longer period, including offering additional products in a software-as-a-service model. Changes to our licensing programs and subscription renewal programs, including the timing of the release of enhancements, upgrades, maintenance releases, the term of the contract, discounts, promotions and other factors, could impact the timing of the recognition of revenue for our products, related enhancements and services and could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.
As our international sales and operations grow, we could become increasingly subject to additional risks that could harm our business.
We conduct significant sales and customer support, development and engineering operations in countries outside of the United States. Our continued growth and profitability could require us to further expand our international operations. To successfully expand international sales, we must establish additional foreign operations, hire additional personnel and recruit additional international resellers. In addition, there is significant competition for entry into high growth markets, such as China. Our international operations are subject to a variety of risks, which could cause fluctuations in the results of our international operations. These risks include:
| • | compliance with foreign regulatory and market requirements; |

10
| • | variability of foreign economic, political and labor conditions; |

| • | changing restrictions imposed by regulatory requirements, tariffs or other trade barriers or by U.S. export laws; |

| • | longer accounts receivable payment cycles; |

| • | potentially adverse tax consequences; |

| • | difficulties in protecting intellectual property; |

| • | burdens of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws; and |

| • | as we generate cash flow in non-U.S. jurisdictions, if required, we may experience difficulty transferring such funds to the U.S. in a tax efficient manner. |

Our results of operations are also subject to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. In order to minimize the impact on our operating results, we generally initiate our hedging of currency exchange risks one year in advance of anticipated foreign currency expenses for those currencies to which we have the greatest exposure. When the dollar is weak, foreign currency denominated expenses will be higher, and these higher expenses will be partially offset by the gains realized from our hedging contracts. If the dollar is strong, foreign currency denominated expenses will be lower. These lower expenses will in turn be partially offset by the losses incurred from our hedging contracts. There is a risk that there will be fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates beyond the one year timeframe for which we hedge our risk.
Our success depends, in part, on our ability to anticipate and address these risks. We cannot guarantee that these or other factors will not adversely affect our business or operating results.
Security vulnerabilities in our products could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations.
Maintaining the security of computing devices and networks is a critical issue for us and our customers. We devote significant resources to address security vulnerabilities in our products and services through engineering more secure products and services, enhancing security and reliability features in our products and services, deploying security updates to address security vulnerabilities and seeking to respond to known security incidents in sufficient time to minimize any potential adverse impact. The cost of these measures could reduce our operating margins. Despite these efforts, actual or perceived security vulnerabilities in our products and systems may lead to claims against us and harm our reputation, and could lead some customers to seek to return products, to stop using certain products or services, to reduce or delay future purchases of our products or services, or to use competing products or services. Customers may also increase their expenditures on protecting their existing computer systems from attack, which could delay adoption of new technologies. Further, if our customers suffer any losses or are otherwise harmed in connection with a security incident related to our products or services, we could be subject to liability claims from our customers. Any of these actions by customers could adversely impact our results of operations.
Our products, including products obtained through acquisitions, could infringe third-party intellectual property rights, which could result in material litigation costs.
We are increasingly subject to infringement claims and may in the future be subject to claims alleging the unauthorized use of a third-party’s code in our products. This may occur for a variety of reasons, including the expansion of our product lines through product development and acquisitions; an increase in patent infringement litigation commenced by non-practicing entities; the increase in the number of competitors in our industry segments and the resulting increase in the number of related products and the overlap in the functionality of those products; and the unauthorized use of a third-party’s code in our product development process. Companies and inventors are more frequently seeking to patent software despite recent developments in the law that may discourage or invalidate such patents. As a result, we could receive more patent infringement claims. Responding to any infringement claim, regardless of its validity, could result in costly litigation costs, monetary damages or injunctive relief or require us to obtain a license to intellectual property rights of those third parties. Licenses may not be available on reasonable terms, on terms compatible with the protection of our proprietary rights, or at all. In addition, attention to these claims could divert our management’s time and attention from developing our business. If a successful claim is made against us and we fail to develop or license a substitute technology or negotiate a suitable settlement arrangement, our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be materially and adversely affected. In particular, a material adverse impact on our financial statements could occur in the period in which the effect of an unfavorable final outcome becomes probable and reasonably estimable.
Security and reliability is the number one concern of Cloud Computer users.
11
Lack of control augments consumers’ perception of Cloud Computing security and reliability, including connectivity outages which could cause large lack of productivity and financial losses. Although security risks may be minimized by having cloud computing in a smaller cloud, having a smaller cloud or clouds would likely negate to many extents the cost and scalability effects of cloud computing. Cloud Computing flaws, whether actual or perceived, could hinder our ability grow our Company’s business.
Risks related to the disclosure of confidential information of core technology.
The independently developed technologies by us, contracts with partners and agreements with cooperated system integrators are all confidential information. We have established strict access limitation level for the personnel in the Company to review and use such information by signing Non-disclosure Agreements with relevant people. The usage and disclosure of such information have been managed stringently by the Company. We also sign a long-term engagement contract with the core technical people who may hold major technologies of the Company. Despite the foregoing measurements adopted by the Company, we cannot assure the confidential information will not be disclosed definitely.
Systems failures could harm our business.
Temporary or permanent outages of our computers or software equipment could have an adverse effect on our business. Although we have not experienced any catastrophic outages to date, we currently do not have fully redundant systems for our web sites and other services at an alternate site. Therefore, our systems are vulnerable to damage from break-ins, unauthorized access, vandalism, fire, earthquakes, power loss, telecommunications failures and similar events. Although we maintain insurance against fires, earthquakes and general business interruptions, the amount of coverage
Experienced computer programmers seeking to intrude or cause harm, or hackers, may attempt to penetrate our network security from time to time. Although we have not experienced any catastrophic security breaches to date, if a hacker were to penetrate our network security, they could misappropriate proprietary information, cause interruptions in our services, dilute the value of our offerings to customers and damage customer relationships. We might be required to expend significant capital and resources to protect against, or to alleviate, problems caused by hackers. We also may not have a timely remedy against a hacker who is able to penetrate our network security. In addition to purposeful security breaches, the inadvertent transmission of computer viruses could expose us to system damage, operational disruption, loss of data, litigation and other risks of loss or harm.
We depend on continued performance of and improvements to our computer network.
Any failure of our computer systems that causes interruption of our services could result in a loss of business. If sustained or repeated, these performance issues could reduce the attractiveness of our services to consumers and our subscription products and services. Increases in the volume of our web site traffic could also strain the capacity of our existing computer systems, which could lead to slower response times or system failures. We may not be able to project accurately the rate, timing or cost of any increases in our business, or to expand and upgrade our systems and infrastructure to accommodate any increases in a timely manner.
Internet commerce security threats could pose a risk to our online sales and overall financial performance.
A significant barrier to online commerce is the secure transmission of confidential information over public networks. We rely on encryption and authentication technology to provide the security and authentication necessary to effect secure transmission of confidential information. There can be no assurance that advances in computer capabilities; new discoveries in the field of cryptography or other developments will not result in a compromise or breach of the algorithms used by us and our partners to protect consumer’s transaction data. If any such compromise of security were to occur, it could have a materially adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. A party who is able to circumvent our security measures could misappropriate proprietary information or cause interruptions in our operations. We may be required to expend significant capital and other resources to protect against such security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by such breaches. Concerns over the security of transactions conducted on the Internet and the privacy of users may also hinder the growth of online services generally, especially as a means of conducting commercial transactions. To the extent that our activities, our partners or third-party contractors involve the storage and transmission of proprietary information, such as credit card numbers, security breaches could damage our reputation and expose us to a risk of loss or litigation and possible liability. There can be no assurance that our security measures will not prevent security breaches or that failure to prevent such security breaches will not have a materially adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Risk of Capacity Constraints; Reliance on Internally Developed Systems; System Development Risks.
A key element of our strategy is to generate a high volume of traffic on, and use of, our services across our network infrastructure and systems. Accordingly, the satisfactory performance, reliability and availability of our software systems, transaction-processing systems and network infrastructure are critical to our reputation and our ability to attract and retain customers, as well as maintain adequate customer service levels. Our revenues depend on the number of visitors who sign up for our services. Any systems interruptions that result in the unavailability of our software systems or network infrastructure would reduce the volume of sign ups and the attractiveness of our service offerings. We may experience periodic systems interruptions from time to time. Any substantial increase in the volume of traffic on our software systems or network infrastructure will require us to expand and upgrade further our technology, transaction-processing systems and network infrastructure. There can be no assurance that we will be able to accurately project the rate or timing of increases, if any, in the use of our Web site or timely expand and upgrade our systems and infrastructure to accommodate such increases. We will use a combination of industry supplied software and internally developed software and systems for our search engine, distribution network, and substantially all aspects of transaction processing, including order management, cash and credit card processing, and accounting and financial systems. Any substantial disruptions or delays in any of our systems would have a materially adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
12
Storage of personal information about our customers could pose a security threat.
Our policy is not to willfully disclose any individually identifiable information about any user to a third party without the user’s consent. This policy is accessible to users of our services when they initially register. Despite this policy, however, if third persons were able to penetrate our network security or otherwise misappropriate our users’ personal information or credit card information, we could be subject to liability. These could include claims for unauthorized purchases with credit card information, impersonation or other similar fraud claims. They could also include claims for other misuses of personal information, such as for unauthorized marketing purposes. These claims could result in litigation. In addition, the Federal Trade Commission and other states have been investigating certain Internet companies regarding their use of personal information. We could incur additional expenses if new regulations regarding the use of personal information are introduced or if they chose to investigate our privacy practices.
We have agreed to indemnify our officers and directors against lawsuits to the fullest extent of the law.
We are a Nevada corporation. Nevada law permits the indemnification of officers and directors against expenses incurred in successfully defending against a claim. A summary of Nevada law with respect to indemnification is summarized below.
We currently do not maintain any insurance coverage. In the event that we are found liable for damage or other losses, we would incur substantial and protracted losses in paying any such claims or judgments. We have not maintained liability insurance in the past, but intend to acquire such coverage immediately upon resources becoming available. There is no guarantee that we can secure such coverage or that any insurance coverage would protect us from any damages or loss claims filed against it.
We may engage in transactions that present conflicts of interest.
Our officers and members of our Board of Directors may enter into agreements with the Company from time to time which may not be equivalent to similar transactions entered into with an independent third party. A conflict of interest arises whenever a person has an interest on both sides of a transaction. While we believe that it will take prudent steps to ensure that all transactions between the Company and any officer or director is fair, reasonable, and no more than the amount it would otherwise pay to a third party in an “arms-length” transaction, there can be no assurance that any transaction will meet these requirements in every instance.
Risks Related to our Common Stock
The application of the “penny stock” rules could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and increase your transaction costs to sell those shares.
The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted Rule 15g-9 which generally defines “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. If the trading price of our common stock falls below $5.00 per share, the open-market trading of our common stock is subject to the penny stock rules, which imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors”. The term “accredited investor” refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC, which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.
13
FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.
In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.
The price of our shares of common stock in the future may be volatile.
The market price of our common stock could be volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including: technological innovations or new products and services by us or our competitors; additions or departures of key personnel; sales of our common stock; our ability to integrate operations, technology, products and services; our ability to execute our business plan; operating results below expectations; loss of any strategic relationships; industry developments; economic and other external factors; and period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results. Because we have a very limited operating history with no revenues to date, you may consider any one of these factors to be material. Our stock price may fluctuate widely as a result of any of the above. In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Stockholders should have no expectation of any dividends.
The holders of our common stock are entitled to receive dividends when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefore. To date, we have not declared or paid any cash dividends. The board of directors does not intend to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future, but instead intends to retain all earnings, if any, for use in our business operations.
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud.
We are subject to reporting obligations under the U.S. securities laws. The SEC, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, adopted rules requiring every public company to include a management report on such company’s internal controls over financial reporting in its Annual Report, which contains management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting. Our management may conclude that our internal controls over our financial reporting are not effective. Our reporting obligations as a public company will place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources and systems for the foreseeable future. Effective internal controls, particularly those related to revenue recognition, are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to help prevent fraud. As a result, our failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting could result in the loss of investor confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which in turn could harm our business and negatively impact the trading price of our stock. Furthermore, we anticipate that we will incur considerable costs and use significant management time and other resources in an effort to comply with Section 404 and other requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

Description of Common Stock
We are authorized to issue 75,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock of which 22,544,000 shares were issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2011. Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on each matter submitted to a vote at any meeting of stockholders. Shares of common stock do not carry cumulative voting rights and, therefore, holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock will be able to elect the entire board of directors, and, if they do so, minority stockholders would not be able to elect any members to the board of directors. Our board of directors has authority, without action by the stockholders, to issue all or any portion of the authorized but unissued shares of common stock, which would reduce the percentage ownership of the stockholders and which may dilute the book value of the common stock.
15
Stockholders have no pre-emptive rights to acquire additional shares of common stock. The common stock is not subject to redemption and carries no subscription or conversion rights. In the event of liquidation, the shares of common stock are entitled to share equally in corporate assets after satisfaction of all liabilities. The shares of common stock, when issued, will be fully paid and non-assessable.
Holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends as the board of directors may from time to time declare out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. We have not paid dividends on common stock and do not anticipate that it will pay dividends in the foreseeable future.
All shares of the Common Stock now outstanding are duly authorized, fully paid and non-assessable. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants are duly authorized and upon payment of the exercise price will be fully paid and non-assessable.
Preferred Stock
The Company is currently authorized to issue up to 25,000,000 “blank check” preferred stock with all designations, rights and privileges as the Company’s Board of Directors may decide, from time to time, without stockholder approval.

OVERVIEW
GBS Enterprises Incorporated, a Nevada corporation (the “Company,” “GBSX,” “we” or “our” or similar expressions), conducts its primary business through its 50.1% owned subsidiary, GROUP Business Software AG (“GROUP”), a German-based public-company whose stock trades on the Frankfurt Exchange under the stock symbol INW. GROUP’s core business is focused on serving IBM’s Lotus Notes and Domino market where it has become IBM’s largest provider of business solutions worldwide. GROUP caters primarily to mid-market and enterprise-size organizations having over 3,500 customers in thirty-eight countries spanning four continents, representing more than 5,000,000 active users of its products. GROUP’s customers include Abbot, Ernst & Young, Deutsche Bank, Bayer, HBSC, Merck and Toyota. GROUP provides Cloud Computing technology, IBM Lotus Notes/Domino Application Transformation technology, Email Management software, Lotus Software Services, Customer Relationship Management software and Risk & Compliance Management solutions. Headquartered in Eisenach, Germany the Company has offices throughout Europe and North America.
Overview of Cloud Computing Technology and Industry Trends
Cloud computing is a general term for anything that involves delivering hosted services over the Internet. These services are broadly divided into three categories: Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS).
IaaS providers have massive data centers that can handle the data run over the cloud, the largest of which is Amazon.com. IBM also participates in this business and hosts GROUP Live. PaaS providers offer the actual cloud platform that runs on the IaaS data centers and can deploy the applications (SaaS products). Some of the leading PaaS providers include Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure Services Platform, Google App Engine, and Rackspace Cloud, along with GBS’s CAP and GROUP Live products. SaaS delivers applications on the cloud, which simplify product licensing and maintenance. The SaaS market was first filled by a number of CRM (Customer Relationship Management), ERP (Enterprise Risk Management) and email applications but has spread into nearly all other types of software. Leading providers in this space include Salesforce.com, Google and Zoho as well as IBM’s Lotus Live suite. In 2009, SaaS made up the bulk of cloud computing revenue at $8 billion (Source: IDC, June 2010).
Over the past five years, there has been a migration from on-premise hardware and software to cloud computing which allows companies to increase efficiency and reduce cost by paying for software and hardware use on a subscription basis. In this model, IT managers are able to rent server capacity on an as-needed basis from a third party, instead of managing a data center on-premise, and purchasing up-to-date licenses for software based on real-time, instead of purchasing bundles of licenses or software and upgrading when updates are released.
An October 2010 IBM Tech Trend Survey found that 91% of the 2,000 IT developers surveyed expect cloud computing to over-take on-premise computing as the primary way organizations acquire IT over the next five years. An IDC July 2010 report shows global public cloud-related spending at $16.5 billion in 2009 (4% of the total IT spending) with the expectation that the market will increase to $55.5 billion by 2014, making up 12% of total IT spending. IDC broke down the market into five categories, three of which GBS competes in, including Applications, App Development and Deployment, and Infrastructure Software. These three make up $13.0 billion of the 2009 total and $40.5 billion in 2014, which leaves plenty of room for growth for a number of competitors in the market.
Competition
The competitive landscape in the enterprise data center market is intense and changing, and we expect there will be a new class of very large, well-financed, and aggressive competitors, each bringing its own new class of products to address this new market. We also expect to see acquisitions, further industry consolidation, and new alliances among companies as they seek to serve the enterprise data center market.
The Company is focused on developing a portfolio of Cloud Computing software technologies and Application Services to address the needs of ISV’s, Data Center providers, as well as commercial and government organizations. GBSX is pursuing an aggressive growth strategy based upon highly targeted mergers and acquisitions so as to build its portfolio of technologies, applications, and services.

Each Unit was comprised of one share of Common Stock and one three-year Warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share. The Warrants are only exercisable by the payment of cash. Pursuant to the terms of the Warrants, the holders of the Warrants are required to exercise their Warrants in the event our Common Stock trades at an average of at least $3.00 per share for a period of not less than 20 consecutive trading days. Also, throughout the three year exercise period of the Warrants, the Company has the right to redeem the Warrants for $0.05 per share. The Company has agreed to register the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, on a Registration Statement on Form S-1. As of March 31, 2011, none of the Warrants have been exercised or redeemed. Upon the full exercise of the Warrants, the Company would receive gross proceeds of $9,066,000.
We intend to use the net proceeds of the private placement offering of Units to increase our marketing, advertising and Cloud and Transformer service development teams, acquisitions and for general corporate working purposes.
Management believes that the Company’s cash at March 31, 2011 will be sufficient to meet the Company’s working capital requirements for the next 12 month period. Management believes that as a result of the assets purchased to date, it will generate additional funds and that it will be able to obtain additional capital as required to meet projected operational requirements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company adopted FASB Codification topic 220, Reporting Comprehensive Income, which establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. Comprehensive income consists of net income and other gains and losses affecting stockholder's equity that are excluded from net income, such as unrealized gains and losses on investments available for sale, foreign currency translation gains and losses and minimum pension liability. Since inception, the Company’s other comprehensive income represents foreign currency translation adjustments.
Net Income per Common Share
FASB Codification topic 260, Earnings per share, requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) with a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the EPS computations. Basic earnings per share amounts are based on the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding. If applicable, diluted earnings per share would assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all potential common stock instruments such as options, warrants and convertible securities, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. Diluted net income (loss) per share on the potential exercise of the equity-based financial instruments is not presented where anti-dilutive. There were no adjustments required to net income for the period presented in the computation of diluted earnings per share.
Financial Instruments
Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, financial assets, notes payable, liabilities to banks, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and other liabilities. As of the financial statement date, the Company does not hold any derivate financial instruments. Financial assets and liabilities are measured upon first recognition and reviewed at the financial statement date. Changes in fair value are recognized through profit and loss. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
Currency Risk
We use the US dollar as our reporting currency. The functional currencies of our significant foreign subsidiaries are the local currency, which includes the Euro and the British pound. Accordingly, some assets and liabilities are incurred in those currency and we are subject to foreign currency risks.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company follows FASB Codification topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, for all financial instruments and non-financial instruments accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. This new accounting standard establishes a single definition of fair value and a framework for measuring fair value, sets out a fair value hierarchy to be used to classify the source of information used in fair value measurement and expands disclosures about fair value measurements required under other accounting pronouncements. It does not change existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value. The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the Company would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and credit risk.
20
The Company has adopted FASB Codification topic 825, Financial Instruments, which allows companies to choose to measure eligible financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not required to be measured at fair value. The Company has not elected the fair value option for any eligible financial instruments.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
Inventories
Pursuant to FASB ASC 330 (Inventories), inventories held for sale are recognized under inventories. Inventories were measured at cost, which is determined on a first-in-first out basis, without any overhead component.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets predominately comprise goodwill, acquired software and capitalized software development services. Intangible assets acquired in exchange for payment are reflected as acquisition costs. If the development costs can be capitalized per FASB Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC“) 985-20-25, these are reflected as ascribable personnel and overhead costs.
Company created software can be intended for sale to third parties or used by the Company itself. If the conditions for capitalization are not met, the expenses are recorded with their effect on profit in the year in which they were incurred.
GROUP amortizes intangible assets with a limited useful life to the estimated residual book value in accordance with ASC regulations. In addition, in special circumstances according to FASB ASC 350-30, a recoverability test is performed and, if applicable, unscheduled amortization is considered.
The useful life of acquired software is between three and five years and three years for Company-designed software.
Intangible assets obtained as part of an acquisition which do not meet the criteria for a separate entry are identified as goodwill and are reviewed once a year as to their recoverability in the form of an impairment test. If they are no longer recoverable, an unscheduled amortization expense entry is performed.
Use value is generally used in order to determine the recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite useful life. The current plan prepared by the management serves as the basis for this policy. The planning assumptions are each adjusted for the current state of knowledge. Reasonable assumptions regarding macroeconomic trends and historical developments are taken into account in making these adjustments. Future estimated cash flows are essentially determined based on the expected growth rates of the markets in question.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are valued at acquisition or manufacturing costs, reduced by scheduled and, if necessary, unscheduled depreciation. Fixed assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis, prorated over their expected useful life. Scheduled depreciation is mainly based on useful lives of 3 to 10 years.
If fixed assets are sold, retired or scrapped, the profit or loss arising from the difference between the net sales proceeds and the residual book value are included under other operating earnings and expenses.
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates the recoverability of its fixed assets and other assets in accordance with FASB Codification topic, 360.10. This guidance requires recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds its expected cash flows, it is considered to be impaired and is written down to fair value, which is determined based on either discounted future cash flows or appraised values. No impairment has been recognized in the accounts.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, Revenue Recognition. Under these guidelines, revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, shipment has occurred or services rendered, the price is fixed or determinable and payment is reasonably assured. Customers take ownership at point of sale and bear the costs and risks of delivery.
Maintenance earnings are realized per FASB ASC 605 Revenue Recognition on a pro rata basis over the contractual service period. Consulting and training services are realized upon provision of the service. Sales revenues are presented with deductions made for discounts, customer bonuses, and rebates.
21
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency of the Company is US dollars. For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of GROUP were translated into US dollars. Assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses were translated at the average exchange rates and stockholders’ equity was translated at historical exchange rates. Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign exchange adjustment to other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity.
Other Provisions
According to FASB ASC 450 Contingencies, provisions are made whenever there is a current obligation to third parties resulting from a past event which is likely in the future to lead to an outflow of resources and of which the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions not already resulting in a outflow of resources in the following year are recognized at their discounted settlement amount on the financial statement date. The discount taken is based on market interest rates. The settlement amount also includes the expected cost increases. Provisions are not set off against contribution claims. If the amended estimate leads to a reduction of the obligatory amount, the provision is proportionally reversed and the earnings are recognized in other operating earnings.
Deferred Taxes
Income taxes are provided in accordance with FASB Codification topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss-carry forwards.
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that, some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effect of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06 (ASU 2010-06), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures which amends ASC Topic 820, adding new requirements for disclosures for Levels 1 and 2, separate disclosures of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements relating to Level 3 measurements and clarification of existing fair value disclosures. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the requirement to provide Level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 (the Company’s fiscal year 2012); early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-06 to have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.
In February 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-9 Subsequent Events (Topic 855) Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements ("ASU 2010-9"). ASU 2010-9 amends disclosure requirements within Subtopic 855-10. An entity that is an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This change alleviates potential conflicts between Subtopic 855-10 and the SEC's requirements. ASU 2010-9 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2010. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2010-09 to have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.
Effective July 1, 2010, we adopted the update to the accounting standard regarding derivatives and hedging (Topic 815). This update clarifies how to determine whether embedded credit derivatives, including those interests held in collateralized debt obligations and synthetic collateralized debt obligations, should be bifurcated and accounted for separately. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on our results of operations.
In December 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ASU 2010-29, Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations (Topic 805). The update requires public companies to disclose pro forma information for business combinations that occur in the current reporting period. The disclosures include pro forma revenue and earnings of the combined entity for the current reporting period as though the acquisition date for all business combinations that occurred during the year had been as of the beginning of the annual reporting period. This guidance is effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. The Company’s adoption of FASB ASU No. 2010-29 effective December 1, 2010 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial position but did result in additional disclosures.
A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard-setting organizations and various regulatory agencies. Because of the tentative and preliminary nature of these proposed standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements
Off - Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any other financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholder’s equity or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.

Principles of Consolidation and Reverse Acquisition
As previously disclosed, the Company has exchanged a total of 5,405,411 shares of common stock in exchange for 50.1% of the outstanding common shares of GROUP. Although the Company was the legal acquirer, the transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization of GROUP in the form of a reverse merger, whereby GROUP becomes the accounting acquirer and is deemed to have retroactively adopted the capital structure of the Corporation. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the historical consolidated financial statements of GROUP for all periods presented, and do not include the historical financial statements of the Company. All costs associated with the reverse merger transaction were expensed as incurred.
The Company has based its financial reporting for the consolidation with GROUP in accordance with FASB Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) 805-40 as it relates to reverse acquisitions. Goodwill has been measured as the excess of the fair value of the consideration effectively transferred by the Company, the acquiree for financial reporting purposes, over the net amount of the Company’s recognized identifiable assets and liabilities.
The assets and liabilities of GROUP, the acquirer for financial reporting purposes, are measured and recognized in the consolidated financial statements at their precombination carrying amounts in accordance with ASC 805-40-45-2(a). Therefore, in a reverse acquisition, the non-controlling interest reflects the non-controlling shareholders’ proportionate interest in the pre-combination carrying amounts of GROUP’s net assets even though the non-controlling interests in other acquisitions are measured at their fair values at the acquisition date.
It should also be noted that the Company and GROUP have different year-end reporting dates. The Company’s fiscal year-end reporting date is March 31 and GROUP”s calendar year-end reporting date is December 31. The consolidation of these entities for financial reporting purposes has been performed without any adjustments for timing differences between these two reporting dates in accordance Regulation S-X Rule 11-02.

None
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
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 Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, for the Company.
Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;(2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of its management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal control, and accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect material misstatements. In addition, effective internal control at a point in time may become ineffective in future periods because of changes in conditions or due to deterioration in the degree of compliance with our established policies and procedures. A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in there being a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as of March 31, 2011, based on the framework set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on our evaluation under this framework, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of the evaluation date due to the factors stated below.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of evaluation date and identified the following material weaknesses:
| n | LACK OF AUDIT COMMITTEE & OUTSIDE DIRECTORS ON THE COMPANY'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS: We do not have a functioning audit committee or outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures. |

Management is committed to improving its internal controls. The Company intends to appoint outside directors to its Board of Directors as well as establish a standing audit committee consisting of independent directors in the near future.
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 the our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter for our fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Family Relationships
There are no family relationships between or among any of our current directors, executive officers or persons nominated or charged by the Company to become directors or executive officers. There are no family relationships among our officers and directors and the officers and directors of our direct and indirect subsidiaries.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
None of the directors or executive officers has, during the past ten years:
| (a) | Had any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; |

| (b) | Been convicted in a criminal proceeding or subject to a pending criminal proceeding; |

Code of Ethics and Code of Business Conduct
We have not yet adopted a Code of Ethics or Code of Business Conduct due to our limited size but we intend to do so when we increase the size of our Company.
Corporate Governance
Nominating and Compensation Committees
We do not have standing nominating or compensation committees, or committees performing similar functions. Our Board of Directors believes that it is not necessary to have a standing compensation committee at this time because the functions of such committee are adequately performed by our Board of Directors.
Our Board of Directors also is of the view that it is appropriate for us not to have a standing nominating committee because our Board of Directors has performed and will perform adequately the functions of a nominating committee. Our Board of Directors has not adopted a charter for the nomination committee. There has not been any defined policy or procedure requirements for stockholders to submit recommendations or nomination for directors. Our Board of Directors does not believe that a defined policy with regard to the consideration of candidates recommended by stockholders is necessary at this time because we believe that, given the early stages of our development, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until our business operations are at a more advanced level.
Audit Committee
We do not have a standing audit committee at the present time. Our Board of Directors has determined that we do not have a board member that qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K, nor do we have a board member that qualifies as “independent” as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
Although, we believe that our Board of Directors is capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting, we intend, in the near future, to ­increase our board size as permitted by our Bylaws and forming a standing Audit Committee comprised of at least three independent directors.
55
Other Committees
All proceedings of our Board of Directors for the year ended March 31, 2011 were conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by our directors and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the Board of Directors. Our Company currently does not have any committees.
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our common stock and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by the SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports that they file.
Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners were complied with, with the exception of Ronald Everett, our Chief Financial Officer, and Gary MacDonald, our Executive Senior Vice President and Chief Development Officer. As of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, Mr. Everett and Mr. MacDonald have not filed their Form 3’s.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

The aggregate fees billed for the two most recently completed fiscal years ended March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2011 for professional services rendered by K.R. Margetson were as follows:
| Year Ended March 31 |
| 2011 | 2010 |
| Audit Fees and Audit Related Fees | $ | 5,550 | $ | 5,200 |
| Tax Fees | -- | - |
| All Other Fees | 6,490 | 1,500 |
| Total | $ | 12,040 | $ | 6,700 |

Policy on Pre-Approval by the Board of Services Performed by Independent Auditors
58
We do not use K.R. Margetson Ltd. for financial information system design and implementation. These services, which include designing or implementing a system that aggregates source data underlying the financial statements or generates information that is significant to our financial statements, are provided internally or by other service providers. We do not engage K.R. Margetson Ltd. to provide compliance outsourcing services.
The board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the board of directors either before or after the respective services were rendered.
The board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by K.R. Margetson Ltd. and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining our independence.

Question: If the company's net income is $5M and the company distributes to common shareholders as dividend based on their proportion of shares, how much does GBS Enterprises Incorporated get from dividend distribution if the dividend payout ratio is approximately 25% in dollars?

Solution:
def solution():
     #Define variables name and value
    group_common_shares = 12641235
    gbs_shares = group_common_shares * 0.501

    # an assumption based on the question
    net_income = 5000000

    # an assumption based on the question
    dividend_ratio = 0.25

    #Do math calculation to get the answer
    group_dividend = net_income * dividend_ratio
    gbs_dividend = group_dividend * (gbs_shares / group_common_shares)
    return gbs_dividend


Answer: 626250
