ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION



Forward Looking Statements.



Certain of the statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes "forward looking statements". All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Form 10-Q regarding the Company's financial position, business strategy, and plans and objectives of management for future operations and capital expenditures, and other matters, are forward looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon management's expectations of future events. Although we believe the expectations reflected in such forward looking statements are reasonable, there can be no assurances that such expectations will prove to be correct. Additional statements concerning important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations ("Cautionary Statements") are disclosed in the Cautionary Statements section and elsewhere in our Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2004. Readers are urged to refer to the section entitled Cautionary Statements and elsewhere in our Form 10-K for a broader discussion of these statements, risks, and uncertainties. All written and oral forward looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf subsequent to the date of this Form 10-Q are expressly qualified in their entirety by the referenced Cautionary Statements.





GENERAL



We are engaged in the business of childrens education, focusing on the  publication and sale of kindergarten language school and primary school teaching materials and magazines. We also provide management and consulting services to our franchised kindergarten and language schools. Our teaching materials include books, audio tapes, video tapes and compact discs. A major portion of our educational materials focuses on English language education. We also sell educational tools and equipment that are complementary to our business. Our major business originally started in Taiwan.  In 2001, we started to expand our business in the Peoples Republic of China (PRC). We officially launched our operations in Shanghai in April 2002. As in Taiwan, we offer  advanced teaching materials and tools, and monthly and bi-weekly magazines to provide children ranging from 2 to 12 years of age a chance to learn exceptional English language and computer skills, and to provide a pre-school education program.



CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES, JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES



Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of  operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with  accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to product returns, bad debts, inventories, equity investments, income taxes, financing operations, pensions, commitments and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other  assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the  basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily  apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions  or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant  judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.



Revenue Recognition. We recognize sales of teaching materials and  educational tools and equipment as revenue when title of the product and risk of ownership are transferred  to the customer which occurs at the time of delivery, or when the goods arrive at the customer  designated location, depending on the associated shipping terms. Additionally, we deliver products sold by our distributors directly to the distributors customers and as such the delivered goods are recognized as revenue in a similar way as sales to our direct customers. We estimate sales returns and discounts based on historical experience and record them as reductions to revenues. If market conditions were to decline, we may take actions to increase sales discounts, possibly resulting in an incremental reduction of  revenue at the time when revenues are recognized.



Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their  ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required.



Allowance for Obsolete Inventories and Lower of Cost or Market. We write down our inventory for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference  between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about inventory aging, future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required.



Investment Impairments. We hold equity interests in companies having  operations in areas within our strategic focus. We record an investment impairment charge when we  believe an investment has experienced a decline in value that is not temporary. Future adverse changes in market conditions or poor operating results of underlying investments could result in losses or an inability to recover the carrying value of the investments that may not be reflected in an investments current carrying value, thereby possibly requiring an impairment charge in the future.



Fixed Assets and Depreciation. Our fixed assets are stated at cost.  Major improvements and betterments to existing facilities and equipment are capitalized.  Expenditures for maintenance and repairs that do not extend the life of the applicable asset are charged to  expense as incurred. Buildings are depreciated over a 50-year term. Fixtures and equipment are  depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which range from two-and-a-half years to ten years.



Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. We review our fixed assets and other long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the  carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future net cash flows  expected to be generated by the asset over its remaining useful life. If such assets are considered to  be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying  amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The estimate of fair value is  generally based on quoted market prices or on the best available information, including prices for similar assets and the results of using other valuation techniques.



Income Taxes. We account for income taxes under the asset and liability  method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences  attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and tax loss carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are subject to valuation allowances based upon managements estimates of realizability. Actual results may differ significantly from managements estimate.





RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 for the  three months ended June 30, 2005 is due mainly to cost control in our Shanghai operation.



Other Operating costs. The increase in other operating costs of $24,531 or 31.2% from $78,544 for the  three months ended June 30, 2004 to $103,075 for the  three months ended June 30, 2005 is due mainly to increase in other operating revenue.

increase in Franchise income and decrease in our franchising costs for the same period.

 for the   six

As of June 30, 2005, we did not engage in any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.



Bank Borrowing



One of our financing sources is from bank borrowings. As of June 30, 2005 the balances of bank borrowings were $4,025,806.





Equity Investments in Joint Ventures



On May 28, 2004, we
 signed a joint venture agreement with Zhangjhou Yu Hua Educational Investment Co., Ltd. in Henan Province, PRC to establish a company, Henan Kid Castle Education Development Co., Ltd. with registered capital of RMB$300,000. Pursuant to this joint venture agreement, we
 and Zhangjhou Yu Hua Educational Investment Co., Ltd. own 65% and 35% interests in Henan Kid Castle Education Development Co., Ltd., respectively. No capital contribution has yet been made for the joint venture as of June 30, 2005.



On June 29, 2004, we
 signed a joint venture agreement with Li Kai and Zhang Wuen Shou in the PRC to establish a company, Shanxi Kid Castle Education Development Co., Ltd. with registered capital of RMB$500,000. Pursuant to this joint venture agreement, we
, Li Kai and Zhang Wuen Shou own, respectively, 51%, 30% and 19% interests in Shanxi Kid Castle Education Development Co., Ltd. No capital contribution has yet been made for the joint venture as of June 30, 2005.



Operating Leases



We have entered into several non-cancelable lease arrangements for administrative office space, warehouse space and sales offices for various lengths of time.



Going Concern



The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming we
 will continue as a going concern. As we are
 aggressively expanding its business in the PRC and our
PRC operation is still in an emerging stage and has not turned profitable, we
 ha ve
 suffered recurring losses from operations. The above conditions raise substantial doubt about our
 ability to continue as a going concern, if the investment in the PRC does not gradually see returns. The majority of our
 existing loans were guaranteed by two directors who have expressed their continuous support to us
 until other sources of funds have been obtained. Management believes that, with continuous growth in the sales in the PRC, the existing directors support and the new bank facilities, we
 will have sufficient funds for operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible

future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.



NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS



In September 2004, the EITF delayed the effective date for the recognition and measurement guidance previously discussed under EITF Issue No. 03-01, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments (EITF 03-01) as included in paragraphs 10-20 of the proposed statement until further guidance is issued for its application. The proposed statement will clarify the meaning of

other-than-temporary impairment and its application to investments in debt and equity securities, in particular investments within the scope of FASB Statement No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, and investment accounted for under the cost method. The Group is currently evaluating the effect of this proposed statement on its financial position and results of operations.



In November 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 151, Inventory Costs, which clarifies the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material. SFAS No. 151 will be effective for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. We do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 151 will have a material impact on our financial statements.



In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, which eliminates the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. SFAS No. 153 will be effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. We do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 153 will have a material impact on our financial statements.



Non-GAAP Financial Measures



None.



ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK



We are exposed to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates that may adversely affect our results of operations and financial position. In seeking to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with such activities, we manage exposure to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates through our regular operating and financing activities.



We do not presently use derivative instruments to adjust our interest rate risk profile. We do not utilize financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes, nor do we utilize leveraged financial instruments.



Foreign currency exposure



We have operations in both Taiwan and the PRC. The functional currency of Higoal Development Ltd. and its subsidiary, Kid Castle Internet Technologies Ltd. is NT Dollars and the financial records are maintained and the financial statements are prepared for these entities in NT Dollars. The functional currency of Kid Castle Educational Software Development Company Ltd. and its consolidated investee, Jiangsi 21th Century Kid Castle Culture Media Co. Ltd. is RMB and the financial records are maintained and the financial statements are prepared for these entities in RMB. In the normal course of business, these operations are not exposed to fluctuations in currency values. We do not generally enter into derivative financial instruments in the normal course of business, nor do we use such instruments for speculative purposes. The translation from the applicable local currency assets and liabilities to the U.S. Dollar is performed using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date except for shareholders equity, which is translated at historical exchange rates. Revenue and expense accounts are translated using average exchange rates during the period. Gains and losses resulting from such translations are recorded as a cumulative translation adjustment, a separate component of shareholders equity.



ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



We are in the process of identifying, developing and implementing measures to improve the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, and, in particular, internal controls, including plans to enhance our resources, systems and training with respect to our financial reporting and disclosure responsibilities, and to review our actions with the audit committee and independent auditors. Since April 2004, we have been in the process of implementing a system with respect to internal control over financial reporting. In May 2004, we began installing a new ERP system through an application service provider, and we expect the installation to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2005. Our CEO and our CFO believe that such measures will help improve our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this information, as of June 30, 2005, our CEO and our CFO believe that, subject to the limitations noted above, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that material information required to be included in Kid Castles SEC reports is made known to them on a timely basis.



In May 2005, our accounting manager, who assisted our CFO with our internal control over financial reporting, resigned. We are in the process of searching for a candidate to hire as an accounting manager to handle our internal control over financial reporting. Although this personnel change caused a temporary interruption of our internal control over financial reporting, we believe that the ongoing implementation of our new system with respect to internal control over financial reporting and the installation of our ERP system have minimized any adverse effect that may have been caused by such resignation.
