NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
ZOOM TECHNOLOGIES, INC., AFFILIATES & SUBSIDIARIES
SEPTEMBER 30, 2012 AND DECEMBER 31, 2011 (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS

The Acquisition

On September 22, 2009, Zoom Technologies, Inc. ("Zoom", "us", "we", or the "Company"), pursuant to the share exchange agreement ("SEA") dated January 28, 2009, (amended May 12, 2009) acquired all the outstanding shares of Gold Lion Holding Limited ("Gold Lion"), a company organized and existing under the laws of the British Virgin Islands ("BVI") (the "Merger"). In connection with the SEA, the Company spun off its then-existing business to its stockholders, by distributing all assets and liabilities of the subsidiary and issuing shares of its then operating subsidiary as a dividend to its stockholders.

The parties to the SEA were: (1) Zoom Technologies, Inc., (2) Tianjin Tong Guang Group Digital Communication Co., Ltd., ("TCB Digital") a company organized under the laws of the People's Republic of China, ("PRC"); (3) Zoom Telephonics, Inc., or Zoom Telephonics, a wholly owned subsidiary of Zoom; (4) Gold Lion, (5) Lei (Leo) Gu, a citizen of the PRC; and (6) Songtao Du, a citizen of the PRC.

Gold Lion owns 100% of the outstanding stock of Jiangsu Leimone Electronics Co., Ltd., ("Jiangsu Leimone"), a foreign investment enterprise organized under the laws of the PRC that engages in the manufacturing, R&D, and sales of electronic components for 3rd generation mobile phones, wireless communication circuitry, GPS equipment, and related software products. Jiangsu Leimone owned 51.03% of the outstanding stock of TCB Digital. Gold Lion also owns 100% of Profit Harvest Corporation Ltd, ("Profit Harvest"), a marketing and sales company organized and existing under the laws of Hong Kong.

As of the date of the Merger, Mr. Gu owned 70.6% of the outstanding capital stock of Gold Lion. Mr. Du owned 29.4% of the outstanding capital stock of Gold Lion, which was pledged to Mr. Wei Cao.

On September 22, 2009, pursuant to the SEA and approval of the majority of the stockholders of the Company, the Company acquired from the Gold Lion shareholders 100% of Gold Lion's outstanding equity for 4,225,219 shares of the Company's common stock. As a result of this issuance, the former Gold Lion shareholders owned 69.3% of the outstanding stock of the Company and the transaction was recorded as a reverse acquisition. Prior to the Merger, the Company had 1,980,978 shares outstanding which were recapitalized as part of the Merger.

The parties to the Agreement include: (1) Zoom Technologies, Inc.; (2) Silver Tech Enterprises, Ltd. ("Silver Tech"), a holding company founded in July 2005, organized and existing under the laws of the BVI, which owned 100% of Ever Elite Corporation, Ltd.

On January 4, 2011, pursuant to a share exchange agreement (the `Share Exchange Agreement") the Company acquired 100% ownership of Celestial Digital Entertainment, Ltd., ("CDE") a mobile platform video game development company based in HK. The consideration was $1,818,000 in shares of common stock of the Company; the number of shares was calculated by dividing $1,818,000 by the higher of i) $3.75 per share or ii) the Volume Weighted Average Closing Price of the Company's shares for the 10 consecutive trading days leading up to the day before the date of the Share Exchange Agreement which was December 20, 2010. This resulted in the issuance of 484,800 shares of the Company's common stock to acquire CDE. CDE primarily focuses on development of video games and applications for mobile phones and mobile platforms. CDE has developed over 40 titles for the Apple iPhone and is one of the largest developers of iPhone applications in Asia. The Company acquired CDE through its wholly owned HK subsidiary, Profit Harvest.

On October 11, 2011, the Company and Zoom USA Holdings, Inc., a newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("Zoom Sub") entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement ("Securities Purchase Agreement") to purchase from The Cellular Network Communications Group, Inc. ("CNCG") a 50% interest in Portables Unlimited LLC ("Portables"), an exclusive wholesale distributor of T-Mobile products in the United States. As consideration of the 50% interest in Portables, the Company (i) issued 1,494,688 shares of Zoom common stock (the "Equity Consideration") to the principals of CNCG and (ii) through Zoom Sub, issued a promissory note of $500,000 payable to CNCG. The promissory note accrues interest at 2% and matures three years from the date of issuance. The Equity Consideration was to be held in escrow until the date that Portables provided to the Company financial statements for Portables' third quarter ended September 30, 2011. The financial statements were provided in January 2012 and the stock certificates were released from escrow. In addition, Zoom Sub purchased an additional 5% interest in Portables for $750,000, to be paid within 30 days of the closing date, which is currently outstanding. Further, in connection with the transaction, the Company assumed the responsibility for repaying certain indebtedness owed by Portables to T-Mobile USA, Inc. in the amount of $4,757,187 (the "T-Mobile Indebtedness"), and agreed to arrange for a $500,000 letter of credit in the name of Portables to secure obligations of Portables to T-Mobile. The T-Mobile Indebtedness was payable under the following schedule: $2,500,000

8


was due on November 10, 2011 (the "Initial Payment"), $1,400,000 was due on December 10, 2011 (the "Second Payment"), and the remaining $853,788 was due on December 20, 2011 (the "Final Payment"). The Initial Payment and Second Payment were made in a timely manner, and pursuant to an agreement with T-Mobile the Final Payment was waived. The waiver of the final payment was recognized as other income in 2011 because this settlement was not a required condition in the Company's acquisition of Portables. Additionally, the Company agreed to pay other outstanding indebtedness of Portables in the amount of $4,500,000, less the amount of T-Mobile Indebtedness paid off.

The Company had previously recognized acquisition payables to Portables in the amount of $1,350,000 and the need to arrange a $500,000 Letter of Credit in Portables' name to secure obligations to T-Mobile. On April 13, 2012, the Company received notice that it was in default on the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Securities Purchase Agreement provides that if the Company was in default, the Company's ownership of Portables will be reduced and CNCG will be entitled to enforce certain rescission rights against the Company, as more fully described in the Securities Purchase Agreement. Also, in case of a default, Portables, CNCG and the other member of Portables may bring claims for indemnification against the Company for a breach under the Securities Purchase Agreement, as more fully described in the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Company's non-payment to Portables has reduced its percentage of ownership from 55.0% to 50.5%. Portables Unlimited Inc. owns 49.5% of Portables. As of June 30, 2012, the Company is in dispute with Portables Unlimited Inc. over the Company's percentage of ownership of Portables. The Company derecognized the $1,350,000 acquisition payable and does not expect to make payment for that liability. In the event that the Company is not able to maintain its majority ownership of Portables, the Company would account for its investment in Portables using the equity method of accounting. The Company was advised that on or about August 14, Portables Unlimited Inc., both individually and derivatively, filed an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Nassau against the Company, its US subsidiary, and two officers of the Company. The Complaint seeks damages up to an aggregate amount of $5 million for breach of contract, and a declaration as to the percentage interest the Company retains in Portables Unlimited, Inc. equal to 46%. On and around October 4, 2012, the Company has settled the dispute with Portables Unlimited Inc. and all the parties to the dispute agreed that the Company's and Portables Unlimited, Inc.'s ownership interests in Portables will be 50.1% and 49.9%, respectively.

On October 26, 2011, the Company closed the sale of 1,676,300 shares of common stock to Spreadtrum Communications, Inc., ("Spreadtrum") pursuant to the Common Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") entered into by and among the Company, Spreadtrum and Leo (Lei) Gu (the "Key Stockholder").

The Company, Key Stockholder and Spreadtrum executed the Purchase Agreement in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Zoom's condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2012 includes the balance sheets of Gold Lion, TCB Digital, Jiangsu Leimone, Profit Harvest, Silver Tech, Ever Elite, Nollec Wireless, CDE, Zoom Sub, and Portables. The consolidated operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 include Gold Lion, TCB Digital, Jiangsu Leimone, Profit Harvest, Silver Tech, Ever Elite, Nollec Wireless, CDE, Zoom Sub, and Portables. The Company accounted for it ownership on Portables at September 30, 2012 and for the nine months then ended using an ownership interest of 50.1% (See Note 1).

Equity Method Accounting

In May 2012, the Company invested $12.3 million to establish a new joint venture named SpreadZoom Technologies Co. Ltd., ("SpreadZoom"). The Company owns 47.4% of SpreadZoom and accounted for this investment under the equity method of accounting (ASC 323-30). The Company recorded a loss on investment in SpreadZoom for $423,630 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

11


Exclusion of Related Party Lessor from Consolidation

Portables commencing in January 2009, subleased its principal facility from one of its noncontrolling member. The member began leasing the facility in December 2005 from a related party, AUM Realty, LLC ("AUM"). The Company's management has assessed whether AUM should be consolidated pursuant to FASB ASC 810 Consolidations. ASC 810 is not a "rules based" standard and thereby includes limited circumstances under which it can be conclusively determined whether an entity should be consolidated. Management believes that AUM is not a variable interest entity ("VIE") as defined in ASC 810 because AUM was adequately capitalized. Equity contributions from AUM's owners exceeded 20% of the acquisition costs of the property. Management believes that this is, according to ASC 810 criteria, "sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support." Management believes that the same is true at September 30, 2012 (See Note 26 for details).

Based on this assessment, management believes that AUM is not a VIE because the Company does not make decisions that have significant impact on the performance of AUM; therefore, it is not consolidated as a component of these consolidated financial statements. If the matter were to be assessed differently, these consolidated financial statements would have included AUM's assets (principally land and building), liabilities (principally loan payable) and expenses, with the excess of AUM's assets over liabilities shown as a "noncontrolling interest". AUM guarantees $1.7 million of the $3 million line of credit with M&T Bank for Portables Unlimited, LLC.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2012 and for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures, which are normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to provide for fair presentation.

The interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.

The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP").

For the Company's subsidiaries of JS Leimone, TCB Digital and Nollec Wireless, the functional currency is the Chinese Renminbi ("RMB"); the functional currency of Gold Lion, Profit Harvest, Silver Tech, Zoom Sub and Portables is United States Dollars ("USD" or "$"), and the functional currency of Ever Elite and CDE is Hong Kong Dollars ("HKD"). The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were translated and presented in USD.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. However, actual results could differ materially from those results.

12


Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to substantial risks from, among other things, intense competition associated with the industry in general, other risks associated with financing, liquidity requirements, rapidly changing customer requirements, limited operating history, foreign currency exchange rates and the volatility of public markets.

Comprehensive Income

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 220 "Reporting Comprehensive Income" which establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances in a full set of general purpose financial statements.

ASC 220 defines comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to the statements of stockholders' equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders, including adjustments to minimum pension liabilities, accumulated foreign currency translation, and unrealized gains or losses on marketable securities.

Foreign Currency Translation

The accounts of the Company's Chinese subsidiaries are maintained in the RMB and the accounts of the U.S. parent company are maintained in the USD. The accounts of the Chinese subsidiaries were translated into USD in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 810 with the RMB as the functional currency for the Chinese subsidiaries. According to ASC 810, all assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rate at the date of the balance sheet; stockholders' equity is translated at historical rates; the line items on the statement of operations are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 220. Gains and losses resulting from the translations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the comprehensive income statement.

Cash and Equivalents

For Statement of Cash Flows purposes, the Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, including accounts in book overdraft positions, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash with various banks and trust companies located in China. Cash accounts are not insured or otherwise protected. Should any bank or trust company holding cash deposits become insolvent, or if the Company is otherwise unable to withdraw funds, the Company would lose the cash on deposit with that particular bank or trust company.

Accounts Receivable

The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Accounts are written off against the allowance when it becomes evident collection will not occur. For the contracted manufacturing activities, our standard terms for accounts receivable from our customers are between 60 to 75 days from close of the billing cycle; and for sales of own brand phones our terms include prepaid arrangements and extending receivable to customers up to 60 days. We also offer credit terms of up to 150 days in our trading activities to a certain customers. As of September 30, 2012, management concluded that the allowances as accrued and disclosed in Note 5 - Accounts Receivable were adequate to cover any potential unrecoverable balances as a result of delinquency.

13


Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a weighted average basis and includes all expenditures incurred in bringing the goods to the point of sale and putting them in a saleable condition. In assessing the ultimate realization of inventories, the management makes judgments as to future demand requirements compared to current or committed inventory levels. Our reserve requirements generally increase as our projected demand requires; or decrease due to market conditions and product life cycle changes. The Company estimates the demand requirements based on market conditions, forecasts prepared by its customers, sales contracts and orders in hand.

In addition, the Company estimates net realizable value based on intended use, current market value and inventory ageing analyses. The Company writes down inventories for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventories and their estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. Historically, the actual net realizable value has been close to management's estimate.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Gains or losses on disposals are reflected as gain or loss in the year of disposal. All ordinary repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Major renewals and betterments are charged to the property accounts while replacements, maintenance and repairs, which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets, are expensed in the current period.

Depreciation for financial reporting purposes is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of assets.

Capitalized Interest

Interest associated with major development and construction projects is capitalized and included in the cost of the project. When no debt is incurred specifically for a project, interest is capitalized on amounts expended on the project using weighted-average cost of the Company's outstanding borrowings. Capitalization of interest ceases when the project is substantially complete or development activity is suspended for more than a brief period. There have not been materials amount of capitalized interest for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

In accordance with ASC 360, "Property, Plant and Equipment", the Company reviews the carrying values of long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment and other intangible assets, whenever facts and circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If an asset is considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less costs of disposal. The Company performed as annual review of its long-lived assets at December 31, 2011, and management concluded that for year 2011 there was no impairment. As of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, management did not become aware of events that impaired the carrying value of the Company's long-lived assets.

Goodwill

The Company recognizes goodwill for the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the business acquired. ASC 350 "Intangible Assets-Goodwill and Other", an impairment test for goodwill is undertaken by the Company at the reporting unit level annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired.

14

(i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

(ii) delivery has occurred or services were rendered;

Estimates of cost to complete is reviewed periodically and revised as appropriate to reflect new information. When the current estimates of total contract revenue and contract cost indicate a loss, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is made.

Income is recognized as the percentage of estimated total income, and is determined by dividing incurred costs to date by estimated total costs after giving effect to adjustments, if any, in estimates of costs to completion based upon the most recent information. Percentage of completion is based on labor hours incurred to date divided by total estimated labor hours for the contract.

Royalty income on sales of licensed products by its customers is recorded when the customers report sales to the Company. Royalty income is reported monthly and recorded in the period in which the product is sold. The Company has the right to audit the books of the licensees.

The Company's subsidiary, CDE is in the business of video games and applications for mobile phones and mobile platforms development. Revenue is recognized in accordance with ASC 985-605-55-125. Cost of Software Development Revenue is accounted for under ASC 985-20 to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed.

15


CDE capitalizes cost of development of software for hosting purpose in accordance with ASC subtopic 350-40 ("ASC 350-40"), Intangibles-Goodwill and Other: Internal-Use. As such, CDE expenses all costs that are incurred in connection with the planning and implementation phases of development and costs that are associated with repair or maintenance. Costs incurred in the development phase are capitalized and amortized over the estimated product life. Since the inception of CDE, the amount of costs qualifying for capitalization has been insignificant and as a result all internally used software development costs have been expensed as incurred.

The Company's subsidiary, Portables is in the business of distribution of mobile phone and provision of wireless service. Revenue from the sale of equipment is recognized upon shipment or when purchased at Portables retail locations. Commission income is recognized upon activation of wireless communication services with T-Mobile.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740 "Income Taxes", previously SFAS No. 109. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the estimated tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts and each year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized when, in management's opinion; it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The provision for income taxes represents current taxes payable net of the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Operating Leases

Leases where substantially all the rewards and risks of ownership of assets remain with the leasing company that do not meet the capitalization criteria of ASC 840 "Leases" are accounted for as operating leases. Rental payables under operating leases are expensed on the straight-line basis over the lease term.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are related primarily to the development of cell phone technology, video games and applications for mobile phones and mobile platforms development. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Earnings Per Share

The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with the provisions of ASC 260 "Earnings Per Share". ASC 260 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 excludes dilution and 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 using the treasury method.

Common stock equivalents represent the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of the outstanding stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method, at either the beginning of the respective period presented or the date of issuance, whichever is later, and only if the common stock equivalents are considered dilutive based upon the Company's net income (loss) position at the calculation dates.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for current receivables and payables qualify as financial instruments. Management concluded the carrying values 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 if applicable, their stated interest rate approximates current rates available. The three levels are defined as follows:

• 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 assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis subject to the disclosure requirements of ASC 820 as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are as follows:

    Carrying value   Active markets
For identical
Assets
  Significant
other
Observable
Inputs
  Significant
Unobservable
Inputs
    2012   (Level 1)   (Level 2)   (Level 3)
Cash and cash equivalents   $ 3,803,966    $ 3,803,966    $   $
Restricted cash   $ 16,410,824    $ 16,410,824    $   $
Warrants   $ 327,763    $   $ 327,763    $
                         
    Carrying value   Active markets
For identical
Assets
  Significant
other

Inputs
  Significant
Unobservable
Inputs
    2011   (Level 1)   (Level 2)   (Level 3)
Cash and cash equivalents   $ 1,131,109    $ 1,131,109    $   $
Restricted cash   $ 15,507,408    $ 15,507,408    $   $
Warrants   $ 850,841    $   $ 850,841    $

The Company's financial instruments include cash and equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, notes receivables, other receivables, accounts payable, notes payable, and warrants. Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of high rated money market funds at a variety of well-known institutions with original maturities of three months or less. Restricted cash represents time deposits on account to secure short-term bank loans and notes payable (Note 14). Management estimates the carrying amounts of the non-related party financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.

17


Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and equivalents and trade and bills receivables. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, substantially all of the Company's cash and equivalents and restricted cash were held by major financial institutions located in the PRC, Hong Kong and the United States, which management believes are of high credit quality. With respect to trade and notes receivables, the Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customer's financial condition. The Company generally does not require collateral for trade receivables and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts of trade receivables.

Notes receivable are undertaken by the banks to honor the payments at maturity and the customers are required to place deposits with the banks equivalent to certain percentage of the notes amount as collateral. These notes receivable can be sold to any third party at a discount before maturity. The Company does not maintain an allowance for notes receivable in the absence of bad debt experience and the payments are undertaken by the banks.

Non-controlling Interests

The Company follows ASC 810 for reporting non-controlling interest ("NCI") in a subsidiary. As a result, the Company reports NCI as a separate component of Equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Additionally, the Company reports the portion of net income and comprehensive income attributed to the Company and NCI separately in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Statement of Cash Flows

In accordance with ASC 230, "Statement of Cash Flows", cash flows from the Company's operations are calculated based upon the local currencies. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows may not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheet.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. The ASU provides entities with an option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether events or circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If an entity concludes that it is more than 50% likely that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is not impaired, no further analysis is required. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, it would be required to determine the FV of the indefinite-lived intangible asset to measure the amount of actual impairment, if any, as currently required under US GAAP. The ASU is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this pronouncement will not have a material impact on its financial statements.

Except for the ASU above, as of November 17, 2012, The FASB has issued ASU No. 2012-01 through ASU 2012-07, which is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Correction of Prior Period Financial Statements

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, management determined that the outstanding Series A, C, F, G and related placement agents warrants should be accounted for as liabilities under derivative accounting. The Company has adjusted its December 31, 2011 condensed consolidated balance sheet and its income statements for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011.

The corrections had no net impact on the Company's cash flows.

19


Management believes that these corrections when considering the qualitative impact are not considered material to the Company's financial position and results of operations in relation to financial statements previously filed with the SEC. The Company further believes treating these corrections as material and amending prior filings would be misleading to readers and investors because it would imply that the Company earned significantly more earnings through core business operations that would be available for distribution, which is not the case.

These corrections will be made to applicable prior period financial information in future filings with the SEC.

    September 30,   December 31,
2012   2011
    (Unaudited)    
Manufacturing plant   $   $ 10,170,809 

The Company signed an agreement with Leimone (Tianjin) Industrial Co., Ltd. ("Tianjin Leimone") to construct a manufacturing plant on June 26, 2010 for $15,063,000 (RMB 99,591,000). The contract included land use rights for 46,021 square meters and space of 21,029 square meters. At December 31, 2011, the Company had paid to Tianjin Leimone $10,170,809 (RMB 64,734,150). During the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company incorporated a new joint venture, SpreadZoom Technologies Co., Ltd., that will be the entity to legally hold title to the Company's new factory. The Company believes the valuation of the assets and economic benefits derived from the Company's ownership via the newly formed entity remained unchanged. See Note 27 - SpreadZoom Investment for details. The deposit paid to Tianjin Leimone was repaid to the Company and immediately used to capitalize SpreadZoom and then subsequently paid back to Tianjin Leimone for the factory that will owned by SpreadZoom. As disclosed in Note 27, SpreadZoom began operations. The Company recorded a loss on investment of $423,630 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Leimone (Tianjin) Industrial Co., Ltd ("Leimone Tianjin"), a related party, is currently involved with a dispute with the construction company contracted to build our new manufacturing facility in Tianjin. On August 15, 2011, Leimone Tianjin filed a claim against Henan Urban Construction Group ("HUCG"). The claim is for the termination of the construction contract between Leimone Tianjin and HUCG and claims damages of approximately $1.3 million (RMB 8,072,310) against HUCG. In Leimone Tianjin's court filing, it has accused HUCG of improper use of the funds paid to HUCG by Leimone Tianjin, as a result, construction project has been delayed. HUCG's has claimed as its defense that the delay in construction was a result of poor conditions at the construction site. The outcome of the dispute is still pending decision from the courts from the 2nd Mid-Level People's Court of Tianjin City. The Company is currently unable to determine the probability that it will be successful in this claim. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, the Company received notice from the courts in Tianjin that it had made a ruling; however, the counterparty has appealed the Court's ruling. As of September 30, 2012, further judgment on the counterparty's appeal is still pending.

The Company has accounted for all of the outstanding Series A, C, F, G, and related placement warrants as liabilities. See Note 2 for details. The Company assessed the value of these warrants by using the binomial lattice model. When the Company valued the warrants it used the following assumptions as part of inputs into the valuation model. US treasury rates as measure of the risk free rate of return. The Company also used the mean of the annualized standard deviation of the log normal returns of comparable companies in the same line of business as measure of volatility. The Company controls whether dilution may occur, so it did not add additional assumptions regarding dilutive events into the future discrete outcomes found in the model. The warrants values were adjusted for the dilutive effect as ratio of the outstanding common stock at the time of measurement. In determining the probabilities of an up movement or down movement in the discrete outcomes, as well as the related magnitude of such up or down movements, the Company used a Cox-Ross-Rubenstein approach in applying the binomial lattice model.

NOTE 21 - STOCK OPTIONS

Previous Plan

Prior to the acquisition of Gold Lion, the Company issued stock options to its previous employees, officers and directors. Pursuant to terms of the SEA, outstanding stock options at the closing of the acquisition remained valid for the full life of the options regardless if the employee, officer and director remained in any capacity with the Company. There were 423,100 options outstanding as of September 22, 2009, the effective date of the reverse merger between Zoom and Gold Lion, with expiration in 3 years from the date of grant and in various stages of vesting. The non-cash compensation charges of these stock options were recorded by the spun-off subsidiary, Zoom Telephonics, and were expensed by the Company.

34


On the closing of the Merger, 30,000 stock options were granted to four exiting directors of the Company, for their anticipated cooperation with Post-Merger management, including the provision of any historical information about the Company that may be needed in future activities. Such options are exercisable at $10.14 per share, vest in six months from the date of grant and expired two years later. The non-cash compensation charges of these 30,000 shares of options will be expensed by the Company. All such options have expired or were exercised.

On May 22, 2012, the Company issued 302,800 shares of its common stock to its employees and directors in replacement for cancelling 1,339,000 outstanding options that were held by the same recipients. The shares have the same vesting schedule as the options and were valued at $1.12 per share, the closing price on the date of Board Approval, which is considered the market price at that time. Based on the difference between the market value of the shares and the Black-Scholes value of the cancelled options as of May 22, 2012, there is an extra non-cash compensation expense of $66,977 for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

NOTE 22 - INCOME TAX

The Company is subject to income taxes by entity on income arising in or derived from the tax jurisdiction in which each entity is domiciled.

Zoom Technologies Inc., the parent company was incorporated in the U.S. and has net operating losses ("NOL") for income tax purposes, which can be carried forward for up to 20 years from the year the loss is incurred. Zoom has NOL carry forwards for income taxes of approximately $10.2 million at September 30, 2012, which may be available to reduce future years' taxable income. Management believes the realization of benefits from these losses remains uncertain due to Zoom's limited operating history and continuing losses. Accordingly, a 100% deferred tax asset valuation allowance has been provided.

TCB Digital, Jiangsu Leimone and Nollec Wireless are governed by the Income Tax Law of the PRC concerning the private-run enterprises, which are generally subject to tax at a statutory rate of 25% on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriate tax adjustments.

Jiangsu Leimone is exempt from income tax in PRC for two years starting from the first profitable year or the year 2008, whichever is earlier, and is subject to a 50% exemption on normal income tax rate for the following three years.

Nollec Wireless is exempt from income tax in PRC for two years starting from 2008, and is subject to a 50% exemption on normal income tax rate for three years starting from 2010 and is subject to normal income tax rate from 2013.

Since Nollec has pre-tax loss for the nine months period ended September 30, 2012, the Company's net income and earnings per share had no effect due to its income tax exemption.

Profit Harvest and CDE are governed by the Income Tax Law of Hong Kong, which is generally subject to tax at a statutory rate of 16.5% on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriate tax adjustments.

Portables is governed by the Income Tax Law of United States; however, because Portables is a pass through entity for tax purposes, tax liabilities are the responsibility of its members. Therefore, Zoom Sub, which is responsible to report and make payments on its portion of income generated by Portables is subject to a statutory tax rate of 34%.

TCB Digital had pre-tax losses of $1,361,596 and $360,102 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 respectively, while Jiangsu Leimone had pre-tax losses of $190,738 and $801,131 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 respectively, while Profit Harvest had pre-tax profit of $8,780,223 and $12,333,401 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 respectively, while Nollec Wireless had pre-tax loss of $2,455,326 and $1,884,866 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, while CDE had pre-tax profit of $369,569 and pre-tax loss of $133,576 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, while Portables had pre-tax profit of $901,857 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

Foreign pretax earnings approximated $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Pretax earnings of a foreign subsidiary are subject to U.S. taxation when effectively repatriated. The Company provides income taxes on the undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries except to the extent that, such earnings are invested indefinitely outside of the U.S. At September 30, 2012, approximately $30.53 million of accumulated undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries was invested indefinitely. At the existing U.S. federal income tax rate, additional taxes of $7.3 million would have to be provided if such earnings were remitted currently.

NOTE 23 - STATUTORY RESERVES

As stipulated by the Company Law of the PRC, net income after taxation can only be distributed as dividends after appropriation has been made for the following:

i) Making up cumulative prior years' losses, if any;

ii) Allocations to the "Statutory surplus reserve" of at least 10% of income after tax, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, until the fund amounts to 50% of the Company's registered capital;

iii) Allocations of 5-10% of income after tax, as determined under PRC accounting rules and regulations, to the Company's "Statutory common welfare fund", which is established for the purpose of providing employee facilities and other collective benefits to the Company's employees; and Statutory common welfare fund is no longer required per the new cooperation law executed in 2006.

iv) Allocations to the discretionary surplus reserve, if approved in the shareholders' general meeting.

In accordance with Chinese Company Law, the Company allocated 10% of its net income to surplus. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company appropriated $19,996 and $3,667 to statutory surplus reserve respectively. As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company's statutory surplus reserve was $702,524 and $682,528 respectively.

NOTE 25 - OPERATING RISK

  • Industry risk
  • The industry in which we compete is a rapidly evolving, highly competitive and fragmented market driven by consumer preferences and quickly evolving technology. Increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced gross margin and loss of market share. Failure to compete successfully against current or future competitors could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

  • Exchange risk
  • The Company cannot guarantee the Renminbi and USD exchange rate will remain steady; therefore, the Company could post the same profit for two comparable periods and post higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of Renminbi and USD. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in the political and economic environments without notice.

  • Political risk
  • Currently, PRC is in a period of growth and is openly promoting business development in order to bring more business into PRC. Additionally PRC currently allows a Chinese corporation to be owned by a United States corporation. If the laws or regulations relating to ownership of a Chinese corporation are changed by the PRC government, the Company's ability to operate the PRC subsidiaries could be affected.

  • Interest risk
  • The Company is exposed to interest rate risk arising from short-term variable rate borrowings from time to time. The Company's future interest expense will fluctuate in line with any change in borrowing rates.

    The Company had outstanding warrants that are accounted for as derivative securities. Their values are re-measured at each reporting period. The quoted U.S. treasury rates with the maturities similar to those of the warrants are used as inputs in calculating their value; accordingly, the value of the warrants, are subject to fluctuations interest rates.

Corporate Overview

Zoom Technologies, Inc. (the "Company", "we", "us", "our", or "Zoom") was incorporated in the state of Delaware on February 29, 2002. Until September 22, 2009, our business was the design, production, marketing, sales, and support of broadband and dial-up modems, Voice over Internet Protocol or "VoIP" products and services, Bluetooth® wireless products, and other communication-related products.

On September 22, 2009, the Company consummated a share exchange transaction and acquired all the outstanding shares of Gold Lion Holding Limited ("Gold Lion"), a company organized and existing under the laws of the British Virgin Islands ("BVI"). In connection with the share exchange transaction, the Company spun off its then-existing business to its stockholders, by distributing and transferring all assets and liabilities to its then subsidiary, Zoom Telephonics, Inc., and issuing shares of its then operating subsidiary as a dividend to its stockholders.

The Company, through Gold Lion, is the owner of 100% of Profit Harvest Corporation Ltd., a company organized under the laws of Hong Kong ("Profit Harvest") and through Gold Lion's wholly owned subsidiary, Jiangsu Leimone, is the owner of 80% of TCB Digital, a company organized under the laws of the People's Republic of China ("PRC"). The Company's ownership of TCB Digital increased from 51% to 80% when our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Lei Gu, through Hebei Leimone Technology Company, Ltd. ("Hebei Leimone"), a company controlled by him, exercised an option to purchase an additional 28.97% of TCB Digital and transferred such ownership to the Company on March 29, 2010. The Company issued 2,402,576 shares of common stock to Hebei Leimone's assignees as consideration for such transfer. Profit Harvest serves as the sales and marketing arm of TCB Digital and Jiangu Leimone serves as a complimentary and supplemental manufacturing arm for TCB Digital. Substantially all of the revenues of Zoom are currently generated by TCB Digital and Profit Harvest, and from June 1, 2010 onwards by Nollec Wireless (see next paragraph), and from October 12, 2011 onwards by Portables Unlimited LLC. Both TCB Digital and Jiangsu Leimone are in the business of manufacturing, research and development, and sales of electronic components for third generation mobile phones, whole phones, wireless communication circuitry, GPS equipment, and related software products.

On June 1, 2010 the Company acquired 100% ownership of Silver Tech Enterprises, Ltd ("Silver Tech"), a BVI holding company which owns 100% of Ever Elite Corporation, Ltd ("Ever Elite"), a Hong Kong holding company, which owns 100% of Nollec Wireless, a mobile phone and wireless communication design company located in Beijing, China, founded in June 2007 and organized under the laws of the PRC. The Company purchased all of the outstanding shares of Silver Tech from its previous owners for $10.96 million, comprised of $1.37 million in cash and 1,342,599 newly issued unregistered shares of common stock of Zoom valued at $9.59 million.

On January 4, 2011, the Company through its wholly-own subsidiary in Hong Kong, Profit Harvest, acquired 100% ownership of Celestial Digital Entertainment, Ltd., ("CDE") a mobile platform video game development company based in Hong Kong. The consideration was $1,818,000 to be divided by the Volume Weighted Average Closing Price of the Company's common stock for the 10 consecutive trading days leading up to the day before the date of this Share Exchange Agreement, or $3.75 per share, whichever is greater. This resulted in the issuance of 484,800 shares to acquire CDE.

CDE primarily focuses on development of video games and applications for mobile phones and mobile platforms. CDE has developed over 40 titles for the Apple iPhone. The acquisition transaction closed on January 4, 2011, and CDE became a wholly owned subsidiary of Profit Harvest.

On October 12, 2011, the Company and Zoom USA Holdings, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("Zoom Sub") entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement to purchase from The Cellular Network Communications Group, Inc. ("CNCG") a 50% interest in Portables Unlimited LLC ("Portables"), an exclusive wholesale distributor of T-Mobile products in the United States. As consideration of the 50% interest in Portables, Zoom (i) issued 1,494,688 shares of Zoom common stock (the "Equity Consideration") to the principals of CNCG and (ii) through Zoom Sub, issued a promissory note of $500,000 payable to CNCG. The promissory note accrues interest at 2% and matures three years from the date of issuance. In addition, Zoom Sub purchased an additional 5% interest in Portables for $750,000. Further, in connection with the transaction, Zoom assumed the responsibility for repaying certain indebtedness owed by Portables to T-Mobile USA, Inc. of $4,757,187 (the "T- Mobile Indebtedness"), and agreed to arrange for a $500,000 letter of credit in the name of Portables to secure obligations of Portables to T-Mobile. The T-Mobile Indebtedness was payable under the following schedule: $2,500,000 was due on November 10, 2011 (the "Initial Payment"), $1,400,000 was due on December 10, 2011 (the "Second Payment"), and the remaining $857,186 was due on December 20, 2011 (the "Final Payment"). The Initial Payment and Second Payment were made timely, and pursuant to the agreement with T-Mobile the Final Payment was waived. Zoom also agreed to pay other outstanding indebtedness of Portables of $4,500,000, less the amount of T-Mobile Indebtedness paid off. Additionally, the Company had previously recognized acquisition payables to Portables in the amount of $1,350,000 and the need to arrange a $500,000 Letter of Credit in Portables' name to secure obligations to T-Mobile. On April 13, 2012, the Company received notice that it was in default on the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Securities Purchase Agreement provides that if the Company was in default, a portion of the Company's ownership of Portables will be transferred to Portables, and CNCG will be entitled to enforce certain rescission rights against the Company, as more fully described in the Securities Purchase Agreement. Also, in case of a default, Portables, CNCG and the other member of Portables may bring claims for indemnification against the Company for a breach under the Securities Purchase Agreement, as more fully described in the Securities Purchase Agreement. The Company's non-payment to Portables has reduced its percentage of ownership from 55.0% to 50.5%. Portables Unlimited Inc. owns 49.5% of Portables. As of May 15, 2012, the Company is in dispute with Portables Unlimited Inc. over the Company's percentage of ownership of Portables. The Company derecognized the $1,350,000 acquisition payable and does not expect to make payment for that liability. On or about August 14, 2012, Portables Unlimited Inc., both individually and derivatively, filed an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Nassau against the Company, its US subsidiary, and two officers of the Company, and a declaration as to the percentage interest the Company retains in Portables Unlimited, Inc. equal to 46%. On and around October 4, 2012, the Company settled the dispute with Portables Unlimited Inc. and all the parties to the dispute agreed that the Company's and Portables Unlimited, Inc.'s ownership interests in Portables will be 50.1% and 49.9%, respectively.

The diagram below summarizes our corporate structure as of September 30, 2012:

Plan of Operation

During the next 12 months, Zoom, through its operating subsidiaries will continue to execute its business plan by:

  • Continuing to grow its EMS business by delivering cost effective value added services to OEM and ODM customers;
  • Continuing to develop "Leimone" and "ZOOM" brand phones through strategic marketing initiatives and partnerships with industry leaders;
  • Continuing to spend on research and development for products based on 2.5G, 3G, and 4G platforms;
  • Develop solutions, and build according to specifications for mobile operators in China, Asia, and Latin America;
  • Gain product penetration into new foreign markets;
  • Continue to leverage new products and initiatives introduced by T-Mobile USA
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of Zoom's consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP") requires it to make estimates and judgments that affect its reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Zoom based its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from current expectations and assumptions. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting Zoom's consolidated financial statements, we believe the following critical accounting policies involve the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments: allowance for doubtful accounts; income taxes; asset impairment.

Revenue Recognition

In accordance with US GAAP, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed, and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Noted below are brief descriptions of the product or service revenues that Zoom recognizes in the financial statements contained herein.

45


The Company recognizes sales in accordance with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" (FASB ASC Topic 605), "Revenue Recognition."

The Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria are met:

(i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;

(ii) delivery has occurred or services were rendered;

(iii) the price to the customer is fixed or determinable and,

(iv) collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Revenue is not recognized until title and risk of loss is transferred to the customer, which occurs upon delivery of goods, and objective evidence exists that customer acceptance provisions were met.

The Company bases its estimates on historical experience taking into consideration the type of products sold, the type of customer, and the type of specific transaction in each arrangement. Revenues represent the invoiced value of goods, net of value added tax ("VAT").

The Company does not offer promotional payments, customer coupons, rebates or other cash redemption offers to its customers. Deposits or advance payments from customers prior to delivery of goods and passage of title of goods are recorded as advanced from customers.

Company's subsidiary, Nollec Wireless is in the mobile phone design, software integration and mobile solution R&D business, Nollec Wireless, recognizes revenue under percentage of completion method ASC Topic 605-35-25 (Construction - Type and Production - Type Contracts) when reasonably dependable estimates can be made and in which all the following conditions exist:

  1. Contracts executed by the parties normally include provisions that clearly specify the enforceable rights regarding goods or services to be provided and received by the parties, the consideration to be exchanged, and the manner and terms of settlement.
  2. The buyer can be expected to satisfy all obligations under the contract.
  3. The contractor can be expected to perform all contractual obligations.

Estimates of cost to complete is reviewed periodically and revised as appropriate to reflect new information. When the current estimates of total contract revenue and contract cost indicate a loss, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is made.

Income is recognized as the percentage of estimated total income that incurred costs to date divided by estimated total costs after giving effect to estimates of costs to complete based on most recent information. Percentage of completion is based on labor hours incurred to date divided by total estimated labor hours for the contract.

Royalty income on sales of licensed products by its customers is recorded when the customers report sales to the Company. Royalty income is reported monthly and recorded in the period in which the product is sold. The Company has the right to audit the books of the licensees.

In our Portables operations, revenue from the sale of equipment is recognized upon shipment or when purchased at Company retail locations. Commission income is recognized upon activation of wireless communication services with T- Mobile.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

Zoom maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts to reduce amounts to their estimated realizable value. A considerable amount of judgment is required when Zoom assesses the realization of accounts receivables, including assessing the probability of collection and the current credit-worthiness of each customer. If the financial condition of customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, an additional provision for doubtful accounts could be required. Zoom initially records a provision for doubtful accounts based on its historical experience, and then adjusts this provision at the end of each reporting period based on a detailed assessment of its accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts. In estimating the provision for doubtful accounts, Zoom considers: (i) the

46


aging of the accounts receivable; (ii) trends within and ratios involving the age of the accounts receivable; (iii) the customer mix in each of the aging categories and the nature of the receivable; (iv) its historical provision for doubtful accounts; (v) the credit worthiness of the customer; and (vi) the economic conditions of the customer's industry as well as general economic conditions, among other factors. Management regularly reviews outstanding receivables to determine their recoverability. Zoom regularly reviews the credit policies and procedures of its operating subsidiaries to ensure that procedures are appropriate to the Company's risk management approach as well as the general economic environment.

Income taxes

Zoom accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109 (ASC Topic 740), "Accounting for Income Taxes". Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the estimated tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts and each year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized when, in management's opinion; it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The provision for income taxes represents current taxes payable net of the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Zoom adopted FIN 48 (ASC Topic 740), Accounting for Uncertainty in Tax Positions. Zoom engages tax preparers in all of the jurisdictions in which it operates to determine if the Company is both fully compliant with applicable tax laws and is lawfully maximizing tax benefits to the Company.

Asset Impairment

Zoom periodically evaluates the carrying value of other long-lived assets, including, but not limited to, property and equipment and intangible assets, when events and circumstances warrant such a review. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flows from such asset is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the long-lived asset. Fair value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Significant estimates are utilized to calculate expected future cash flows utilized in impairment analyses. Zoom also utilizes judgment to determine other factors within fair value analyses, including the applicable discount rate. As of September 30, 2012, the Company has completely written off goodwill resulting from its acquisition of Jiangsu Leimone. During 2011, the Company took 50% impairment charges for goodwill related to its acquisition of CDE. The Company will closely monitor the development and carrying value of CDE on a quarterly basis in 2012 to determine if additional impairment charges will be necessary. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company has not recorded any impairment of goodwill; however, the Company reviewed the current and projected future cash flows of its subsidiaries in concluding no impairment of goodwill was necessary during the period.

Commitments

As detailed in Note 26 - Commitments of the accompanying notes to the financial statements, the Company had operating leases commitments for it leased facilities.

Correction of Prior Period Financial Statements

Management discovered during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 that in accordance to ASC 815-40 the Company had incorrectly accounted for warrants issued in the years 2009 and 2010 as equity. Series A, C, F, and related placement agent warrants contained anti-dilution provision that according to the above guidance required that these derivative securities be accounted for as liabilities and marked to market at each reporting period. Additionally, the Series G and related placement agent warrants contained change of control provisions that required that the warrants be accounted for as liabilities. The Company has adjusted its December 31, 2011 condensed consolidated balance sheet and its income statements for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011. The Company conducted an exhaustive analysis of the correction of error from both quantitative and qualitative approaches and concluded that the corrections were not material to the Company's previously filed consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 2 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of significant Accounting Polices for details.

Results of Operations for the Quarter and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012

Revenues

The Company's revenues were $117,180,898 for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, an increase of $66,432,293, or 130.9% compared to $50,748,605 in the corresponding quarter in 2011. The Company's revenues were $306,717,488 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, an increase of $139,358,752, or 83.3% compared to $167,358,736 to the same period in 2011. The increase of revenues in the third quarter and for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the corresponding quarter and nine months in 2011 was mainly attributable to the Company's continued increase in sales of whole phones.

In the third quarter of 2012, the Company sold 4.59 million whole phones, of which 0.94 million units were Leimone brand phones, with 0.32 million units of those phones being 3G handsets compared to 0.85 million whole phones, of which 0.15 million units were Leimone brand phones, with 0.12 million units being 3G, for the same period in 2011. Revenue from sales of the Company's own branded products in the third quarter of 2012 was $45.6 million as compared to $13.0 million for the same period in 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company sold 9.43 million whole phones, of which 2.14 million units were Leimone brand phones, with 0.78 million units of those phones being 3G handsets compared to 2.08 million whole phones, of which 0.55 million units were Leimone brand phones, with 0.44 million units being 3G, for the same period in 2011. Revenue from sales of the Company's own branded products in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $109.8 million as compared to $40.2 million for the same period in 2011.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, Portables contributed revenue of $11,880,774 and $39,654,571, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, sale of phones and accessories comprised $3,623,435 and $13,989,162 of Portables contribution to revenue, while activation and reoccurring carrier service fees contributed $8,257,339 and $25,665,409 for the same respective periods.

Cost of goods sold

For the quarter ended September 30, 2012 the Company's cost of goods sold was $111,193,306 or 94.9% of revenues while cost of goods sold for the same period in 2011, was $44,046,505 or 86.8% of revenues. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 the Company's cost of goods sold was $286,251,895 or 93.3% of revenues while cost of goods sold for the same period in 2011, was $148,401,121 or 88.7% of revenues. The increase in the cost of goods sold as a percentage of revenues was mainly due to a highly competitive mobile handset market. As the Company continues to increase its purchasing volume, it expects its bargaining power with suppliers to improve which will lead to lower costs of goods sold on a per unit basis.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2012 decreased by 10.7% to $5,987,592 compared to $6,702,100 for the corresponding same period in 2011. Gross profit as a percentage of revenues for the third quarter of 2012 was 5.1%, a decrease from 13.2% for the same period in 2011. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 increased by 8.0% to $20,465,593 compared to $18,957,615 for the corresponding same period in 2011 as a result of increased sales volume; however, gross profit as a percentage of revenues for the nine months of 2012 was 6.7%, a decrease from 11.3% for the same period in 2011 reflecting the highly competitive market. The Company expects gross profit to improve in future periods as the Company continues to increase its revenues going forward.

The sales of mobile handsets and accessories by Portables produced gross margins of 4.9%, while activation and reoccurring carrier service fees provided for 23.7% gross margins during the quarter ended September 30, 2012. Gross margins, on weighted average basis for the combined product and services mix derived from Portables was $2,133,735 or 18.0%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the sales of mobile handsets and accessories by Portables produced gross margins of 4.5%, while activation and reoccurring carrier service fees provided for 25.3% gross margins. Gross margins, on weighted average basis for the combined product and services mix derived from Portables was $7,136,974 or 18.0%.

Operating expenses

Sales and marketing expenses mainly represent salaries of sales personnel, and marketing and transportation costs; such expenses were $620,223 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $187,378 for the corresponding period in 2011.   For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 sales and marketing expenses were $1,168,150 and $577,681. The Company's continued increase in sales activities correlates with our increase in sales and marketing expenses for both the quarter as well as the nine months ended.

General and administrative expenses primarily consisted of compensation for administrative personnel, depreciation, travel expenses, rental, materials expenses related to ordinary administration, and fees for professional services; and these were $2,792,615 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $1,708,923 for the corresponding period in 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 general and administrative expense increased to $10,772,299 from $4,651,512 for the same period in 2011. The increase of such expenses in 2012 was due to our inclusion of $698,381 and $5,701,621 of general and administrative expenses for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2012 generated by Portables, our newly acquired subsidiary, in addition to increased overall business activity, and increased costs of legal, accounting and related expenses in order to maintain the Company's compliance with SEC and NASDAQ rules and regulations.

The Company's research and development expenditures for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were $386,635 and $1,410,797 respectively. These costs were incurred by our Nollec Wireless subsidiary for developmental costs in mobile handset design and software integration. R&D expenditures decreased by $1,024,162, or 72.6% as compared to the same period in the prior year. The Company's research and development expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were $1,772,681 and $4,459,110 respectively. R&D expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 decreased by $2,686,429, or 60.2% as compared to the same period in 2011. The Company continues to spend on research and development; however, its spending is focused on the continued development of products on platforms in which Company invested heavily in 2011. Accordingly, the Company expects future R&D expenditures to be steady as percentage of revenue.

48


The Company's non-cash equity-based compensation charges were $758,592 and $362,712 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, respectively; the Company's non-cash equity-based compensation charges were $2,030,151 and $977,650 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, respectively. The respective $395,880 and $1,052,501 increases, or 109.1% and 107.7%, in such expenses during the three and nine month periods represent the Company's investment in human capital for new business development initiatives and retention of key engineers and managers.

Other income (expense)

The Company's had a net other expense of $257,610 and net other income of $70,737 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 respectively. The Company's had a net other expense of $980,421 and net other income of $2,915,924 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 respectively.

Interest expense remained steady at $725,834 and $720,064 for the three months ended September 30, 2012, and 2011. Interest expense increased to $1,935,977 from $1,695,087 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, and 2011, reflecting the overall increasing borrowing over the nine month period to finance working capital.

As described above in Correction of Prior Period Financial Statements, the Company has employed derivative accounting for its outstanding warrants. The change in their fair value for each reporting period is recorded in the Company's income statement as other income (expense).

The Company recorded a loss on investment for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, $423,630 for its equity method investment in SpreadZoom. SpreadZoom is just ramping up production. The Company expects significant improvement in the results of operations for SpreadZoom on a go forward basis.

Net income

For the quarter ended September 30, 2012, the Company's net income was $752,314 a decrease of $1,824,051 or 70.8% from $2,576,365 for the corresponding period in 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company's net income was $2,047,508, a decrease of $ $7,184,723 or 77.8% from $9,232,231 for the corresponding period in 2011. Net income as a percentage of revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were 0.6% and 5.1% respectively. Net income as a percentage of revenues, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were 0.7% and 5.5% respectively. The Company's decreased gross margin as percentage of sales led to lower net profit margins during the quarter. As noted above, the Company expects gross margin to improve moving forward from increased bargaining power with suppliers as a function of expected increases in revenues in the future. Increases in general and administrative expenses are expected to decrease as a percentage of revenue as a result of the Company expectations such costs should scale with the Company's increase revenue in the future. Equity based compensation is expected to remain stable in the future. The Company also believes those that have been incentivized through equity based compensation will help the Company create brand recognition and improved profitability in the future. The Company's net income was impacted by the accounting for the warrants using derivative accounting. As detailed in above in Correction of Prior Period Financial Statements, the Company's net income for the three and nine months period ended September 30, 2011 was increased when the Company corrected this period, the relative increase as a result of the correction was significantly more than the income reported for 2012 as result of marking the warrants to fair value at the end September 30, 2012. Refer to Note 2 - Basis of Presentation and Summary of significant Accounting Polices for a more a detailed analysis.

Other comprehensive income/(loss)

For the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company's other comprehensive income (loss) was $(333,330) and $211,491 respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company's other comprehensive income was 56,387 and $920,551 respectively. Other comprehensive income resulted from foreign currency exchange fluctuations particularly the Renminbi against the USD.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Zoom generally finances its operations from cash flow generated internally, interest-free credit lines in the form of banker acceptances and short-term loans from domestic banks. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had cash and equivalents of $3,803,966 and restricted cash of $16,410,824. Restricted cash is our deposit held as security at banks for the ability to issue twice the amount in interest-free notes for our purchase of production materials. We had cash and equivalents of $1,131,109 and restricted cash of $15,507,408 as of December 31, 2011.

49


Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $5,257,827 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $10,004,220 for the same period in 2011. In the first nine months of 2012, operational sources of funds included net increases in accounts payable of $24,834,057, increases in accruals and other payables of $6,278,057, reduction in advances to suppliers of $728,846, and increase in advance from customers of $2,026,810. These increases were primarily partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $38,096,887, an increase of $5,713,871 in prepaid expenses and $5,256,775 in inventories. The significant increase in accounts receivable was related to the growth in sales activity by the Company. The Company does not expect difficulties in recovering its receivable as the Company has been successful with collections subsequent to September 30, 2012.

Net cash used in investing activities of $8,639,109 in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was primarily attributable to $12,364,270 provided by the Company's subsidiary, TCB Digital, to capitalize SpreadZoom Technologies Co., Ltd. in an equity investment in which TCB Digital will ultimately own 47.37% interest. This amount was offset by the refund of construction deposits for the new factory by Tianjin Leimone, a related party, for the amount of $10,261,417. Cash was also used in the increase of $792,581 in restricted cash, and the increase in notes receivable of $5,384,577.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $16,548,569 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to $9,012,445 sourced in the same period in 2011. The Company received repayment on borrowings from related parties of $25,697,445. The Company repaid $1,506,339 in short term bank loans and repaid $4,457,729 in notes payable.

In October 2012, as consideration of the settlement for a dispute between Portables Unlimited Inc. ("PUI") and Company regarding their ownership percentages in Portables Unlimited LLC ("Portables"), PUI extended a 12% nine-month loan (the "PUI Loan") in the principal amount of $2,000,000 to the Company, the proceeds of which loan will be dispersed by the Company as follows: (1) 615,000 as a capital contribution to Portables on behalf of Zoom USA Holdings, Inc. ("Zoom Sub"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company ("Zoom Sub"), (2) $200,000 to The Cellular Network Communications Group, Inc. ("CNCG") toward principal and interest due under that certain $500,000 promissory note payable to CNCG and issued by Zoom Sub in connection with the Company's acquisition of a majority equity interest in Portables in October 2011, and (3) three months of interest on the PUI Loan in the amount of $60,000 to be prepaid to Portables. The Loan was guaranteed by Zoom Sub.

Contractual Obligations

As of September 30, 2012, the Company has short-term loan obligations of $28,277,739 with interest rates between 5.00% and 7.93%. In addition, notes payable are secured by our restricted cash deposits at the banks, payable in three to six months and bear no interest. The outstanding balance of notes payable as of September 30, 2012 was $28,574,062.

On a go forward basis over the next 12 months, Zoom intends to continue to rely on short-term loans and restricted cash secured notes to fund its operational cash needs. In the event that expansion or acquisition opportunities exist, we may contemplate additional conventional bank and/or equity financing to take advantage of such opportunities or we may sell certain assets. However, there is no assurance that such opportunities can be found, and if so, whether financing is available at acceptable terms.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2012, Zoom had no off balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

The Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, including, without limitation, that such information is accumulated and communicated to Company management, including the Company's principal executive and financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls. In designing and evaluating the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, Company management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company's principal executive and financial officers have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) as of March 31, 2012, and based on this evaluation, the Company's principal executive and financial officers have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that material information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported by management of the Company on a timely basis in order to comply with the Company's disclosure obligations under the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The Company's principal executive and financial officers conclusion regarding the Company's disclosure controls and procedures is based solely on management's conclusion that the Company's internal control over financial reporting are effective.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

There were no significant changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the first three months of fiscal 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, such control.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

In Leimone Tianjin's court filing, it has accused HUCG of improper use of the funds paid to HUCG by Leimone Tianjin, as a result, construction project has been delayed. HUCG's has claimed as its defense that the delay in construction was a result of poor conditions at the construction site. The outcome of the dispute is still pending decision from the courts from the High-Level People's Court of Tianjin City.
