 Use of
estimates
 
 The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles of the United States of America requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the combined
financial statements and accompanying notes. Management believes that the
estimates utilized in preparing its financial statements are reasonable and
prudent. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
 The
Company’s certain accounting policies require higher degrees of judgment than
others in their application. These include the recognition of revenue and
earnings from system contracting projects under the percentage-of-completion
method, determining the fair value of stock based compensation and the allowance
of doubtful accounts and warranty expenses. Management evaluates all of its
estimates and judgments on an on-going basis.
 
 Revenue
recognition
 
 Revenue
is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the
Company as follows:
 
 1.
              Revenue
      from system contracting projects are recognized using the
      percentage-of-completion method of accounting and, therefore, take into
      account the costs, estimated earnings and revenue to date on contracts not
      yet completed. Revenue recognized is that percentage of the total contract
      price that cost expended to date bears to anticipated final total cost,
      based on current estimates of costs to complete. Contract costs include
      all direct material and labor costs and those indirect costs related to
      contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs,
      and depreciation costs. Selling, general, and administrative costs are
      charged to expense as incurred. At the time a loss on a contract becomes
      known, the entire amount of the estimated ultimate loss is recognized in
      the consolidated financial statements. Claims for additional contract
      costs are recognized upon a signed change order from the customer or in
      accordance with paragraphs 62 and 65 of the AICPA’S Statement of Position
      ("SOP") 81-1, "Accounting for Performance of Construction - Type and
      Certain Production - Type Contracts" ("SOP
  81-1").
 
 2.
              Revenue
      from product sales is recognized when the goods are delivered and title
      has passed. Product sales revenue is presented net of a value-added tax
      (VAT). All of the Company’s products that are sold in the People’s
      Republic of China (“PRC”) are subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a
      rate of 17% of the gross sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid
      by the Company on raw materials and other materials included in the cost
      of producing their finished
product.

 3.
              Revenue
      from the rendering of Maintenance Services is recognized over the service
      period on a straight-line basis.
 
 In
accordance with SFAS 48, “Revenue Recognition when Right of Return Exists,”
revenue is recorded net of an estimate of markdowns, price concessions and
warranty costs. Such reserve is based on management’s evaluation of historical
experience, current industry trends and estimated costs.
 
 Enterprise Wide
Disclosure
 
 Almost
all the Company’s products (fire detecting products, fire alarm control device,
and water mist/sprinkler systems) are sold via system contracting projects or as
part of the integrated products sales. The composition of these three types of
products varies significantly from project to project, both in quantity and in
dollar amounts. Although the Company could provide a breakdown of sales
contribution for the Company’s own products for each project, it is almost
impossible to provide revenues for each of the products when the revenue from
each project is recognized based on percentage of completion.  More
importantly, the revenues from the Company’s own products do not accurately
reflect the Company’s overall financial performance. The Company is a system
contracting projects provider rather than product vendors who sell their own
products directly or through channels.  Therefore, it is not practical
to separately disclose the revenues from external customers for each of the
products.
  The
Company’s chief operating decision-makers (i.e. chief executive officer and his
direct reports) review financial information presented on a consolidated basis,
accompanied by disaggregated information about revenues by business lines for
purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. There are
no segment managers who are held accountable for operations, operating results
and plans for levels or components below the consolidated unit level. Based on
qualitative and quantitative criteria established by SFAS 131, “Disclosures
about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”, the Company considers
itself to be operating within one reportable segment.
  Shipping and
handling
 
 Costs
related to shipping and handling are included in cost of revenue pursuant to
EITF 00-10 “Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and
Costs.”

 Foreign currency
translation
  The
reporting currency of the Company is the US dollar. The Company uses their local
currency, Renminbi (RMB), as their functional currency. Results of operations
and cash flow are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and
assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate as quoted by
the People’s Bank of China at the end of the period. Translation adjustments
resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive
income in the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity.
  Asset and
liability accounts at March 31, 2009 were translated at 6.83 RMB to $1.00 as
compared to 6.82 RMB at December 31, 2008.  Equity accounts were
stated at their historical rate.  The average translation rates
applied to income statements accounts for the three months ended March 31, 2009
and 2008 were 6.83 RMB and 7.15 RMB, respectively. Cash flows are also
translated at average translation rates for the period, therefore, amounts
reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes
in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.
 
 Transaction
gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions
denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the
results of operations as incurred.  Historically, the Company has not
entered any currency trading or hedging transactions, although there is no
assurance that the Company will not enter into such transactions in the
future.
 
 Plant and
equipment
 
 Plant and
equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is
computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets with 5% residual value.  Depreciation expense amount to
$200,767 and $169,388 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008,
respectively.
 
 Estimated
useful lives of the assets are as follows:

 Construction
in progress represents the costs incurred in connection with the construction of
buildings or additions to the Company’s plant facilities. No depreciation is
provided for construction in progress until such time as the assets are
completed and placed into service. Interest incurred during construction is
capitalized into construction in progress. All other interest is expensed as
incurred.
 
 The cost
and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are
eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the
consolidated statements of income. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are
charged directly to expense as incurred. Major additions and betterment to
buildings and equipment are capitalized.
 
 Long-term
assets of the Company are reviewed at least annually, more often if
circumstances dictate, to determine whether their carrying value has become
impaired. The Company considers assets to be impaired if the carrying value
exceeds the future projected cash flows from related operations. The Company

projects. The costs of finished goods include direct costs of raw materials as
well as direct labor used in production. Indirect production costs such as
utilities and indirect labor related to production such as assembling, shipping
and handling costs are also included in the cost of inventory.  The
Company reviews its inventories periodically to determine if any reserves are
necessary for potential obsolescence. As of March 31, 2009 and December 31,
2008, the Company determined no reserves are necessary.
 
 Accounts
receivable
 
 Accounts
receivable represents amounts due from customers for products sales, maintenance
services and system contracting projects. Overdue balances are reviewed
regularly by senior management. Reserves are recorded when collection of amounts
due are in doubt.  Delinquent account balances are written-off after
management has determined that the likelihood of collection is not probable,
known bad debts are written off against allowance for doubtful accounts when
identified.

 Research
and development expenses include salaries, consultant fees, supplies and
materials, as well as costs related to other overhead such as depreciation,
facilities, utilities and other departmental expenses. The costs the Company
incur with respect to internally developed technology and engineering services
are included in research and development expenses as incurred as they do not
directly relate to any particular licensee, license agreement or licenses
fee.
 
 Warranty
 
 Generally,
the Company’s products are not covered by specific warranty terms. However, it
is the Company’s policy to replace parts if they become defective within one
year after deployment at no additional charge.  The Company maintains
a provision for potential warranty costs on these products for one
year.  This provision represents management’s assessment of the
Company’s history of warranty costs while incorporating estimates by the quality
review staff of the potential product failure rates.  The Company
records a warranty obligation in selling expense at the time revenue are
recognized.  For the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, the
Company recorded $15,196 and $0, respectively, as a provision for estimated
warranty claims.

 Fair value of financial
instruments
 
 SFAS 107,
Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments, defines financial
instruments and requires fair value disclosures for those
instruments.  SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements, adopted January 1,
2008,  defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation
hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosures
requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the
balance sheets for receivables and payables qualify as financial instruments and
are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time
between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and
their current market rate of interest. The three levels are defined as
follow:
 
 ·
              Level
      1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for
      identical assets or liabilities in active
  markets.
 ·
              Level
      2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar
      assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable
      for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for
      substantially the full term of the financial
  instruments.
 ·
              Level
      3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to
      the fair value.
 
 The
investment in joint ventures is also a financial instrument.  The
Company invested $167,010 (RMB 1,140,000) to Hubei Shou An Changjiang Fire
Protection Co., Ltd for 19% ownership and invested $1,000,000 to King Galaxy
Investments Limited for 5% ownership. Total investment as of March 31, 2009
amounted to $1,167,010. Since there is no quoted or observable market price for
the fair value of similar long term investments in joint ventures, the Company
then used the level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology. The determination of
the fair value was based on the cost of the capital contribution to the joint
ventures.
 
 The
Company did not identify any assets and liabilities that are required to be
presented on the balance sheet at fair value in accordance with SFAS
157.

 Amortization
expense amounted to $18,819, and $18,848 for the three months ended March 31,
2009 and 2008, respectively.
 
 Intangible
assets of the Company are reviewed annually, more often when circumstances
require, to determine whether their carrying value has become impaired. The
Company considers assets to be impaired if the carrying value exceeds the future
projected cash flows from related operations. The Company also evaluates the
periods of amortization to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances
warrant revised estimates of useful lives. As of March 31, 2009, the Company
expects these assets to be fully recoverable.
 
 Income
taxes
 
 The
Company reports income taxes pursuant to SFAS 109, “Accounting for Income
Taxes.” SFAS 109 requires the recognition of deferred income tax liabilities and
assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between
income tax basis and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities.
Provision for income taxes consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes.
Deferred tax assets amounted to $67,824 and $0 as of March 31, 2009 and December
31, 2008, respectively.

 The
Company adopted FASB Interpretation 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes” (“FIN 48”), as of January 1, 2007. A tax position is recognized as a
benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be
sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur.
The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than
50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the
“more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. FIN 48 also provides
guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in
interim periods, disclosures, and transition.
 
 The
Company’s operations are subject to income and transaction taxes in the United
States and in the PRC jurisdictions. Significant estimates and judgments are
required in determining the Company’s worldwide provision for income taxes. Some
of these estimates are based on interpretations of existing tax laws or
regulations. The ultimate amount of tax liability may be uncertain as a
result.
 
 The
Company does not anticipate any events which could cause change to these
uncertainties.
 
 The
charge for taxation is based on the results for the year as adjusted for items,
which are non-assessable or disallowed. It is calculated using tax rates that
have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet
date.
 
 Deferred
tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of
temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of
assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax
basis used in the computation of assessable tax profit.
 
 In
principal, deferred tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary
differences, and deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is
probably that taxable profit will be available against which deductible
temporary differences can be utilized. Deferred tax is calculated using tax
rates that are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the
liability is settled. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the income
statement, except when it is related to items credited or charged directly to
equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by
the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax
assets and liabilities on a net basis.

 Value Added
Tax
 
 Enterprises
or individuals who sell products, engage in repair and maintenance or import and
export goods in the PRC are subject to a value added tax in accordance with
Chinese laws. The value added tax standard rate is 17% of the gross sales price.
A credit is available whereby VAT paid on the purchases of semi-finished
products or raw materials used in the contract and production of the Company’s
finished products can be used to offset the VAT due on sales of the finished
product.
 
 VAT on
sales and VAT on purchases amounted to $980,467 and $793,772 for the three
months ended March 31, 2009. VAT on sales and VAT on purchases amounted to
$964,361 and $742,064 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, respectively.
Sales and purchases are recorded net of VAT collected and paid as the Company
acts as an agent for the government. VAT taxes are not impacted by the income
tax holiday.
 
 Stock-based
compensation
 
 The
Company adopted SFAS 123R “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” at the
beginning of 2006, which defines a fair-value-based method of accounting for
stock-based employee compensation and transactions in which an entity issues its
equity instruments to acquire goods and services from non-employees. Stock
compensation granted to non-employees has been determined in accordance with
SFAS 123R and the EITF 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are issued
to Other than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or
Services", as the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of
equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measured.
 
 Recently issued accounting
pronouncements
 
 In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities - An Amendment of SFAS No. 133.”  SFAS 161
seeks to improve financial reporting for derivative instruments and hedging
activities by requiring enhanced disclosures regarding the impact on financial
position, financial performance, and cash flows. To achieve this increased
transparency, SFAS 161 requires (1) the disclosure of the fair value of
derivative instruments and gains and losses in a tabular format; (2) the
disclosure of derivative features that are credit risk-related; and
(3) cross-referencing within the footnotes. SFAS 161 became effective on
January 1, 2009 and the adoption of SFAS 161 did not impact the Company’s
consolidated financial statements.

 In May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles.” SFAS 162 is intended to improve financial reporting by identifying
a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be
used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with
U.S. GAAP for nongovernmental entities. SFAS 162 is effective 60 days following
the SEC's approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments
to AU Section 411, "The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles." The Company is in the process of evaluating the
impact of adoption of this statement on the results of operations, financial
position or cash flows.
 
 In June
2008, the FASB issued EITF 07-5 “Determining whether an Instrument (or Embedded
Feature) is indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock”. This Issue is effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008,
and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is not
permitted. Paragraph 11(a) of SFAS 133 specifies that a contract that would
otherwise meet the definition of a derivative but is both (a) indexed to
the Company’s own stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the
statement of financial position would not be considered a derivative financial
instrument. EITF 07-5 provides a new two-step model to be applied in determining
whether a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s
own stock and thus able to qualify for the SFAS 133 paragraph 11(a) scope
exception. This standard triggered liability accounting on all warrants
exercisable at strike prices denominated in any currency other than the
functional currency of the operating entity in China (Renminbi).  The
adoption of EITF 07-5 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial
position or results.
 
 In June
2008, FASB issued EITF 08-4, “Transition Guidance for Conforming Changes to
Issue No. 98-5”. The objective of EITF 08-4 is to provide transition
guidance for conforming changes made to EITF 98-5, “Accounting for Convertible
Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable
Conversion Ratios”, that result from EITF 00-27 “Application of Issue No. 98-5
to Certain Convertible Instruments”, and SFAS 150, “Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity”. This
Issue is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years ending after
December 15, 2008. The adoption of EITF 08-4 did not have a material impact on
the Company’s financial position or results.
 
 On
October 10, 2008, the FASB issued FSP 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a
Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active,” which clarifies
the application of SFAS 157 in a market that is not active and provides an
example to illustrate key considerations in determining the fair value of a
financial asset when the market for that financial asset is not active. FSP
157-3 became effective on October 10, 2008, and its adoption did not have a
material impact on the Company’s financial position or results.

Guidance of EITF Issue No. 99-20, “Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment
on Purchased and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets”.
FSP EITF 99-20-1 changes the impairment model included within EITF 99-20 to be
more consistent with the impairment model of SFAS 115. FSP EITF 99-20-1
achieves this by amending the impairment model in EITF 99-20 to remove its
exclusive reliance on “market participant” estimates of future cash flows used
in determining fair value. Changing the cash flows used to analyze
other-than-temporary impairment from the “market participant” view to a holder’s
estimate of whether there has been a “probable” adverse change in estimated cash
flows allows companies to apply reasonable judgment in assessing whether an
other-than-temporary impairment has occurred. The adoption of FSP EITF 99-20-1
did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements because all of the investments in debt securities are classified as
trading securities.
 
 In April
2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and
Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and
Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (FSP FAS 157-4). FSP FAS 157-4
amends SFAS 157 and provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in
accordance with SFAS 157 when the volume and level of activity for the asset or
liability have significantly decreased and also includes guidance on identifying
circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly for fair value
measurements. This FSP shall be applied prospectively with retrospective
application not permitted. This FSP shall be effective for interim and annual
periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for
periods ending after March 15, 2009. An entity early adopting this FSP must
also early adopt FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, “Recognition and Presentation of
Other-Than-Temporary Impairments” (FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2). Additionally,
if an entity elects to early adopt either FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (FSP FAS 107-1 and APB
28-1) or FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, it must also elect to early adopt this
FSP. Management is currently evaluating this new FSP but do not believe that it

 In April
2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2. This FSP amends SFAS 115,
“Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,” SFAS 124,
“Accounting for Certain Investments Held by Not-for-Profit Organizations,” and
EITF Issue No. 99-20, “Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on
Purchased Beneficial Interests and Beneficial Interests That Continue to Be Held
by a Transferor in Securitized Financial Assets,” to make the
other-than-temporary impairments guidance more operational and to improve the
presentation of other-than-temporary impairments in the financial statements.
This FSP will replace the existing requirement that the entity’s management
assert it has both the intent and ability to hold an impaired debt security
until recovery with a requirement that management assert it does not have the
intent to sell the security, and it is more likely than not it will not have to
sell the security before recovery of its cost basis. This FSP provides increased
disclosure about the credit and noncredit components of impaired debt securities
that are not expected to be sold and also requires increased and more frequent
disclosures regarding expected cash flows, credit losses, and an aging of
securities with unrealized losses. Although this FSP does not result in a change
in the carrying amount of debt securities, it does require that the portion of
an other-than-temporary impairment not related to a credit loss for a
held-to-maturity security be recognized in a new category of other comprehensive
income and be amortized over the remaining life of the debt security as an
increase in the carrying value of the security. This FSP shall be effective for
interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption
permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. An entity may early
adopt this FSP only if it also elects to early adopt FSP FAS 157-4. Also, if an
entity elects to early adopt either FSP FAS 157-4 or FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1,
the entity also is required to early adopt this FSP.  Management is
currently evaluating this new FSP but do not believe that it will have a
significant impact on the determination or reporting of our financial
results.
 
 In April
2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1. This FSP amends SFAS
No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” to
require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments not measured on
the balance sheet at fair value in interim financial statements as well as in
annual financial statements. Prior to this FSP, fair values for these assets and
liabilities were only disclosed annually. This FSP applies to all financial
instruments within the scope of SFAS 107 and requires all entities to disclose
the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of
financial instruments. This FSP shall be effective for interim periods ending
after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after
March 15, 2009. An entity may early adopt this FSP only if it also elects
to early adopt FSP FAS 157-4 and FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2. This FSP does not
require disclosures for earlier periods presented for comparative purposes at
initial adoption. In periods after initial adoption, this FSP requires
comparative disclosures only for periods ending after initial adoption.
Management is currently evaluating the disclosure requirements of this new
FSP.

3 - Earnings per share
 
 The
Company reports earnings per share in accordance with the provisions of SFAS
128, “Earnings per Share.” SFAS 128 requires presentation of basic and diluted
earnings per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in
computing such earnings per share.  Basic earnings per share is
computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted
average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share
takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or
other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and converted into common
stock.
 
 The
following is a reconciliation of the basic and diluted earnings per share
computation for the three months ended March 31:

 The
estimated tax savings for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008
amounted to $785,479 and $1,241,570, respectively. The net effect on basic
earnings per share if the income tax had been applied would decrease basic and
diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2009, and 2008
by $0.03 and $0.05, respectively.
 
 China
Fire & Security Group, Inc. was incorporated in the United States and has
incurred net operating losses of $0 for income tax purposes for the three months
ended March 31 2009, respectively.  The estimated net operating loss
carry forwards for United States income taxes amounted to $1,004,414 which may
be available to reduce future years’ taxable income.  These carry
forwards will expire, if not utilize, from 2025 through
2027.  Management believes that the realization of the benefits from
these losses appears uncertain due to the Company’s limited operating history
and continuing losses for United States income tax
purposes.  Accordingly, the Company has provided a 100% valuation
allowance on the deferred tax asset benefit to reduce the asset to
zero.  The net change in the valuation allowance for the period ended
March 31, 2009 was $0 and the accumulated valuation allowance as of March 31,
2009 amounted to $341,501.  Management reviews this valuation
allowance periodically and makes adjustments as warranted.

12 - Statutory reserves
 
 The laws
and regulations of the People’s Republic of China require that before an
enterprise distributes profits to its partners, it must first satisfy all tax
liabilities, provide for losses in previous years, and make allocations, in
proportions determined at the discretion of the board of directors, after the
statutory reserve. The statutory reserves include surplus reserve fund and the
enterprise fund. These statutory reserves represent restricted retained
earnings.
 
 Surplus reserve
fund
 
 The
Company is required to transfer 10% of its net income, as determined in
accordance with the PRC accounting rules and regulations, to a statutory surplus
reserve fund until such reserve balance reaches 50% of the Company’s registered
capital.
 
 The
transfer to this reserve must be made before distribution of any dividend to
shareholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company did not
make any contribution to this fund. Due to the balance of Surplus reserve fund
already reaches 50% of the Company’s registered capital, the Company did not
reserve any surplus reserve fund for the three months ended March 31,
2009.  The surplus reserve fund is non-distributable other than during
liquidation and can be used to fund previous years’ losses, if any, and may be
utilized for business expansion or converted into share capital by issuing new
shares to existing shareholders in proportion to their shareholding or by
increasing the par value of the shares currently held by them, provided that the
remaining reserve balance after such issue is not less than 25% of the
registered capital.
 
 Enterprise
fund
 
 The
enterprise fund may be used to acquire plant and equipment or to increase the
working capital to expend on production and operation of the business. No
minimum contribution is required and the Company did not make any contribution
to this fund for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and
2008.

14 - Options issued to employees
 
 On
January 30, 2008, the Company’s 2008 Omnibus Long-term Incentive Plan was
adopted and approved by shareholders. Pursuant to the 2008 Omnibus Long-term
Incentive Plan, the Company reserved 2,000,000 shares of our common stock for
issuance.
  On
December 31, 2008, pursuant to the Company's 2008 Omnibus Long-term Incentive
Plan, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 1,000,000
shares of options for its employee with total 800,000 shares options issued to
executive officers. The options will vest evenly each quarter over the following
four years, starting from the first quarter of 2009. The Company used the Black
Scholes Model to value the options at the time they were issued, based on the
exercise price of $6.81, which was the close price of the Company’s stock on
December 31, 2008 and using the risk-free rate of 0.875%, 1.125%, 1.313% and
1.5% and the volatility of 86% that was estimated by analyzing the trading
history of the Company’s stock. Because the Company do not have historical
history exercise period from its previous issued option, the Company used the
simplified method to calculate the term, which is the midpoint between the start
vesting date and expiration date of the options, as a variable of the model. The
1,000,000 employee options had a fair value of $3,863,606. The related
compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the four year
vesting period.

Item
2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations





CAUTIONARY
STATEMENT





The
information in this report contains forward-looking statements. All statements
other than statements of historical fact made in this report are forward
looking. In particular, the statements herein regarding industry prospects and
future results of operations or financial position are forward-looking
statements. These forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of
words such as "believes," "estimates," "could," "possibly," "probably,"
anticipates," "projects," "expects," "may," "will," or "should" or other
variations or similar words. No assurances can be given that the future results
anticipated by the forward-looking statements will be achieved. Forward-looking
statements reflect management's current expectations and are inherently
uncertain. Our actual results may differ significantly from management's
expectations.





General





The
following discussion and analysis provides information which the management of
China Fire & Security Group, Inc., (the “Company” or “CFSG”) believes to be
relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company's results of
operations and financial condition. This discussion should be read together with
the Company's financial statements and the notes to financial statements, which
are included in this report.





Overview





We are
engaged in the design, development, manufacturing and sale of fire protection
products and services for large industrial consumers in China. We have developed
a proprietary product line that addresses all aspects of industrial fire safety
from fire detection to fire system control and extinguishing. The Company is the
first in China to leverage advanced technology for fire protection and safety to
clients such as iron and steel companies, power plants, petrochemical plants, as
well as special purpose construction in China.





Reorganization





We were
organized as a Florida corporation on June 17, 2003.





CFSG
owns, through its wholly owned subsidiary China Fire Protection Group, Inc.,
Sureland Industrial and Sureland Equipment (jointly “Sureland”). Sureland is
engaged primarily in the design, development, manufacture and sale in China of a
variety of fire safety products for the industrial fire safety market and of
design and installation of industrial fire safety systems in which it uses its
own fire safety products. To a minor extent, it provides maintenance services
for customers of its industrial fire safety systems. Its business is primarily
in China, but it has recently begun contract manufacturing products for the
export market and it has begun to provide a fire safety system for a Chinese
company operating abroad.





Sureland
markets its industrial fire safety products and systems primarily to major
companies in the iron and steel, power and petrochemical industries in China. It
has also completed projects for highway and railway tunnels, wine distilleries,
tobacco warehouses and a nuclear reactor. It is developing its business in the
transportation, wine and tobacco, vessels, nuclear energy, and public space
markets. Its products can be readily adapted for use on vessels and in
exhibition halls and theatres. It plans to expand its marketing efforts to
secure business in these industries.





Sureland
has internal research and development facilities engaged primarily in furthering
fire safety technologies. It believes that its technologies allow it to offer
cost-effective and high-quality fire safety products and systems. It has
developed products for industrial fire detecting and extinguishing. It believes
that it is the only manufacturer in China which has successfully developed a
comprehensive line of linear heat detectors.





-32-


As of
March 31, 2009, Sureland operates more than 20 sales and liaison offices in
China.





Sureland
has twice been ranked as the leading Chinese industrial fire safety company
by the China Association for Fire Prevention based on six major factors
including total revenue, growth rate, net profit, return on assets, investment
in research and development and intellectual property. Its key products include
linear heat detectors and water mist extinguishers, whose sales volumes are the
largest in China. Its products have been used by its customers in more than 20
provinces throughout China.





Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates





While our
significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our
consolidated financial statements appearing at the end of this quarterly report,
we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid
you in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial
results.





Revenue
recognition





Revenue
is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the
Company as follows:




1.
                Revenue from system contracting
      projects are recognized using the percentage-of-completion method of
      accounting and, therefore, take into account the costs, estimated earnings
      and revenue to date on contracts not yet completed. Revenue recognized
      is that percentage of the total contract price that cost expended to
      date bears to anticipated final total cost, based on current estimates of
      costs to complete the contract. Contract costs include all direct material
      and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance,
      such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs, and depreciation costs.
      Selling, general, and administrative costs are charged to expense as
      incurred. At the time a loss on a contract becomes known, the entire
      amount of the estimated ultimate loss is recognized in the consolidated
      financial statements. Claims for additional contract costs are recognized
      upon a signed change order from the customer or in accordance with
      paragraphs 62 and 65 of AICPA Statement of Position 81-1, "Accounting for
      Performance of Construction - Type and Certain Production - Type
      Contracts" ("SOP 81-1")
 
 2.
                Revenue from product sales is
      recognized when the goods are delivered and title has passed. Product
      sales revenue represents the invoiced value of goods, net of a value-added
      tax (VAT). All of the Company’s products that are sold in the PRC are
      subject to a Chinese value-added tax at a rate of 17 percent of the gross
      sales price. This VAT may be offset by VAT paid by the Company on raw
      materials and other materials included in the cost of producing their
      finished product.
 
 3.
                Revenue from the rendering of
      Maintenance Services is recognized when such services are
      provided.
 
 4.
                Provision is made for foreseeable
      losses as soon as they are anticipated by
    management.
 
 5.
              Where contract costs incurred to
      date plus recognized profits less recognized losses exceed progress
      billings, the surplus is treated as an amount due from contract consumers.
      Where progress billings exceed contract costs incurred to date plus
      recognized profits less recognized losses, the surplus is treated as an
      amount due to contract
customers.




Foreign currency
translation





The
reporting currency of the Company is the US dollar. The Company uses their local
currency, Renminbi (RMB), as their functional currency. Results of operations
and cash flow are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and
assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate as quoted by
the People’s Bank of China at the end of the period. Translation adjustments
resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive
income in the statement of shareholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses
that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a
currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of
operations as incurred. Historically, the Company has not entered any currency
trading or hedging, although there is no assurance that the Company will not
enter into such activities in the future.


-33-


Use of
estimates





The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles of the United States of America requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the combined
financial statements and accompanying notes. Management believes that the
estimates utilized in preparing its financial statements are reasonable and
prudent. Actual results could differ from these estimates.





Certain
of the Company’s accounting policies require higher degrees of judgment than
others in their application. These include the recognition of revenue and
earnings from system contracting projects under the percentage of completion
method and the allowance of doubtful accounts. Management evaluates all of its
estimates and judgments on an on-going basis.





Inventories





Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost or market, using the weighted average method.
Inventories consist of raw materials, work in progress, finished goods and
consumables. Raw materials consist primarily of materials used in production.
Finished goods consist primarily of equipment used in project contracts. The
cost of finished goods included direct costs of raw materials as well as direct
labor used in production. Indirect production costs such as utilities and
indirect labor related to production such as assembling, shipping and handling
costs are also included in the cost of inventory. The Company reviews its
inventory annually for possible obsolete goods or to determine if any reserves
are necessary for potential obsolescence.





Accounts
receivable





Accounts
receivable represents the products sales, maintenance services and system
contracting projects with its customers that were on credit. Overdue balances
are reviewed regularly by senior management. Reserves are recorded when the
collection of amounts due are in doubt.  Delinquent account balances
are written-off after management has determined that the likelihood of
collection is not probable, known bad debts are written off against allowance
for doubtful accounts when identified.

Total
revenues were approximately $16.7 million for the three months ended March 31,
2009 as compared to approximately $14.7 million for the three months ended March
31, 2008, an increase of approximately $2.0 million or 14 percent. This increase
was primarily due to the increase in our revenues from system contracting
projects during the three months ended March 31, 2009. The Company recognized
revenues from 212 total solution, product sales and maintenance contracts for
the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to 146 contracts for the three
months ended March 31, 2008.

Revenues
from system contracting projects increased by 15 percent to $13.0 million
derived from 121 contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared
to $11.3 million derived from 81 contracts for the three months ended March 31,
2008. This increase in revenues from system contracting projects was mainly
attributable to the increase in the number of system contracting projects we
executed and the successful execution of large-scale projects from Xinyu Iron
and Steel Group and Capital Iron and Steel Group during the period. Revenues
from our product sales were $3.1 million derived from 39 executed contracts for
the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to $2.9 million derived from 33
executed contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The increase in
revenues from product sales was mainly due to the increase in the number of
product sales contracts we executed during the period. Revenues from maintenance
services increased by 20 percent to $0.6 million derived from 52 contracts for
the three months ended March 31, 2009, compared to $0.5 million derived from 32
contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The increase in revenues
from maintenance services was mainly attributable to the increase in the number
of maintenance service contracts that we executed as the result of the expansion
in our customer base during the period.





In
particular, our three largest customers were Xinyu Iron and Steel Group, Capital
Iron and Steel Group, and Anshan Iron and Steel Group, which collectively
contributed approximately $4.6 million in revenues, representing 27.5 percent of
total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2009.

Cost of
revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was approximately $6.4
million, as compared to $6.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008,
a decrease of approximately $0.2 million or 3.6%. Gross profit for the three
months ended March 31, 2009 was approximately $10.3 million, as compared to $8.0
million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of approximately
$2.3 million or 28.0 percent. Gross margin for the three months ended March 31,
2009 was 61.6 percent, which increased from the gross margin of 54.7 percent for
the three months ended March 31, 2008. The increase in our gross margin was
mainly due to the increase in the gross margin of our system contracting
projects, offset by the decrease in the gross margins of product sales and
maintenance services during the period.





Gross
margin of system contracting projects was 63.0 percent for the three months
ended March 31, 2009, compared to 50.8 percent for the three months ended March
31, 2008. This increase in the gross margin of system contracting projects was
mainly attributable to our successful execution of total solution projects from
iron and steel industry during this period, which contributed more than 70
percent revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2009. Total solution
projects from iron and steel industry contributed higher gross margins than the
projects from other industries, as a higher percentage of our self-manufactured
proprietary products were used in the projects from iron and steel industy,
which contribute higher gross margins. The other
reason contributing to higher gross margins of system contracting projects was
attributable to the improved efficiency in the execution of large projects,
which lowered the projects’ costs during the period.The gross margin of
product sales was 61.2 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2009,
compared to 70.8 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2008. The decrease
in the gross margin of product sales was mainly attributable to a lower
percentage of our self-manufactured proprietary products sold in product sales
contracts, which contributed higher gross margins than our outsourced products
manufactured by third parties.

Operating
expenses were approximately $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31,
2009 as compared to approximately $3.4 million for the three months ended March
31, 2008, an increase of approximately $0.7 million or 20.5 percent. The
increase in operating expenses was mainly due to the increase in our selling
expense, depreciation and amortization, and R&D expenditure, offset by the
decrease in general administrative expenses during the period.





Selling
expenses were approximately $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31,
2009 as compared to approximately $1.2 million for the three months ended March
31, 2008, an increase of approximately $0.7 million or 63.7 percent. The
significant increase in our selling expenses was mainly attributable to the
increase in our sales-related activities including strengthening relationships
with new clients, marketing of new products and solutions and, expanding our
business into new industries and geographic locations including nuclear power,
transportation and various international markets.
 
 General
administrative expenses were approximately $1.7 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2009, as compared to approximately $1.8 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2008, a decrease of approximately $0.1 million or 6.6
percent. The decrease in general administrative expenses were mainly
attributable to our improved control over operating expenditures and a reduction
in bad debt expenses.  This was offset by an increase in option
expenses, employee salary expense as the result of an increase in number of
employee during the period.
 
 Depreciation
and amortization expenses were approximately $0.19 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2009 as compared to approximately $0.17 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $26,132 or 15.6 percent. The
increase in depreciation and amortization expenses was mainly due to equipment
acquisitions for business operations.
 
 R&D
expenses were approximately $0.31 million for the three months ended March 31,
2009 as compared to approximately $0.27 million for the three months ended March
31, 2008, an increase of $47,381 or 17.8 percent. The increase in our R&D
expenses was mainly attributable to our increased efforts in new product
development.




Operating
income was approximately $6.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009
as compared to approximately $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31,
2008, an increase of approximately $1.5 million or 33.5 percent. The increase in
our operating income was mainly attributable to the increase in our revenues and
higher gross margin during this period.





Total
other income was approximately $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31,
2009 as compared to approximately $0.1 million for the three months ended March
31, 2008, an increase of approximately $0.1 million or 66.6 percent. This
increase was mainly attributable to the increase in our interest income during
the period.

Income
before income tax was approximately $6.4 million for the three months ended
March 31, 2009 as compared to approximately $4.8 million of income before income
tax for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of approximately $1.6
million or 34.4 percent. The reason for the increase in income before income tax
was mainly due to an increase in our revenues and the improvement in our
gross margins during the period. Provision for income tax was approximately
$793,567 for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to approximately
$48,642 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, an increase of $744,925. This
significant increase in our provision for income tax was mainly due to the fact
that Sureland Industrial, our major operating subsidiary, began to pay income
tax at the rate of 12.5 percent, starting from the first quarter of 2009, after
the expiration of its tax exempt period.





Our net
income was approximately $5.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009
as compared to approximately $4.7 million net income for the three months ended
March 31, 2008, an increase of approximately $0.9 million or 19.1 percent.
Excluding the non-cash option expenses of $245,049 for three months ended March
31, 2009, our non-GAAP net income increased by approximately $1.1 million or
23.7 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The reason for this
increase in net income was mainly due to the increase in our revenues and the
improvement in our gross margin during the period.





Currency
translation adjustments resulting from RMB appreciation amounted to negative
$0.2 million and $2.1 million as of the three months ended March 31, 2009 and
2008, respectively. The negative amount of currency translation adjustments
during the three month period ended March 31, 2009 was due to the depreciation
of RMB during the period.





The
comprehensive income, which adds the currency adjustment to net income, was
approximately $5.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 as compared
to approximately $6.8 million in comprehensive income for the three months ended
March 31, 2008, a decrease of $1.3 million or 19 percent.

Operating
Activities


Net cash
provided by operating activities was approximately $2.5 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2009 as compared to approximately $1.8 million net cash
used by operating activities for the same period in 2008. Net cash provided by
operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2009 was mainly due to
the net income of $5.6 million and a $2.6 million decrease in notes receivable,
$1.0 million increase in accrued liabilities and $2.0 million increase in tax
payable, offset by a $1.3 million increase in accounts receivable, $5.2 million
increase in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings, $1.0 million
decrease in customer deposits and $1.5 million decrease in billings in excess of
costs and estimated earnings.





The
increase of $5.2 million in costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings
was mainly due to the increase in the aggregate value of projects where we have
recognized revenues more than we have billed the customers, while the decrease
of $1.5 million in billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings was mainly
due to the decrease in the aggregate value of projects where we have billed our
customers more than we have recognized revenues.





Investing
Activities


Net cash
used in investing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2009 was
$55,740 as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $18,693 in the
same period of 2008. The cash used in investing activities in the three months
ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was mainly attributable to capital
expenditures related to the purchase of new equipment.

Financing
Activities


Net cash
provided by financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2009
totaled $426,650 as compared to $348,582 used in financing activities in the
same period of 2008. The cash provided by financing activities in the three
months ended March 31, 2009 was mainly attributable to the decrease in
restricted cash during the period.





As a
result of the total cash activities, net cash increased by approximately $2.7
million from December 31, 2008 to March 31, 2009.  We believe that our
currently available working capital of $70.0 million, including cash and cash
equivalents of $29.4 million, should be adequate to sustain our operations at
our current level as well as our anticipated expansion.





Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures about Market
Risk





Market
risk is the risk of loss to future earnings, to fair values or to future cash
flows that may result from changes in the price of a financial instrument. The
value of a financial instrument may change as a result of changes in interest
rates, exchange rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes.
Our cash and cash equivalents are held for working capital purposes and consist
primarily of bank deposits. We do not enter into investments for trading or
speculative purposes.





Interest
Rate Risk





We
currently do not have any long-term debt. Our exposure to interest rate risk
primarily relates to the interest income generated by excess cash invested in
demand deposits. We have not used derivative financial instruments in our
investment portfolio in order to reduce interest rate risk. Interest earning
instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk and our future interest income
may change, depending on market interest rate movement.





Foreign
Currency Risk





Our
business is operated in the PRC, and its value is effectively denominated in
Renminbi. The fluctuation of foreign exchange rate between U.S. dollars and
Renminbi could affect the value of our common stock. Our revenues and expenses
are primarily denominated in Renminbi, and so our exposure to foreign exchange
risks should generally be limited. We do not have material monetary assets and
liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars, although to the extent that we do in
the future, the fluctuation of foreign exchange rate would affect the value of
these monetary assets and liabilities denominated in U.S. dollars. Generally,
appreciation of Renminbi against U.S. dollars will devaluate the assets and
liabilities denominated in U.S. dollar, while devaluation of Renminbi again U.S.
dollars will appreciate the assets and liabilities denominated in U.S. dollar.
In China, very limited hedging transactions are available 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 decide to enter into hedging transactions in the future, the
availability and effectiveness of these hedges may be limited and we may not be
able to successfully hedge our exposure at all.





Item 4. Controls and
Procedures.





(a)Evaluation of
Disclosure Controls.As required by Exchange Act
Rule 13a-15(b), our management has carried out an evaluation, under the
supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, of
the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures as of March 31, 2009.





Disclosure
controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or
submit under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and
that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, as
appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.


-38-





Based on
that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer
have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are
effective at March 31, 2009.





(b)Changes in internal
control over financial reporting.There was no change in our
internal control over financial reporting that occurred in the first quarter of
2009 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting.
