SUMMARY

AND RISK FACTORS
PROSPECTUS
SUMMARY
The
following summary of this Prospectus does not purport to be complete and is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the more detailed information
contained in other parts of this Prospectus. Special attention should
be directed to the section describing the “Risk Factors” before making any
decision on the suitability of this investment
ASAP
Expo, Inc.
ASAP
Expo, Inc. was incorporated on April 10, 2007 under the laws of the State of
Nevada and is a wholly owned subsidiary of China Yili Petroleum Company, a
Nevada corporation (“China Yili”), formerly named ASAP Show, Inc (“ASAP
Show”). On August 13, 2007, ASAP Show acquired the outstanding
capital stock of Sino-American Petroleum Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(“Sino-American Petroleum”) (the “Merger”), through the issuance of Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock to the shareholders of Sino-American Petroleum, and
through an amendment to its articles of corporation, changed its corporate name
to China Yili Petroleum Company (all references herein to ASAP Show mean China
Yili prior to the Merger). Sino-American Petroleum is a holding company
that owns all of the registered capital of Tongliao Yili Asphalt Co. (“Yili
Asphalt”), a corporation organized under the laws of the People’s Republic of
China. Yili Asphalt is engaged in the business of refining heavy oil into
asphalt, fuel oil and lubricants. All of Yili Asphalt’s business is
currently in China.
Prior to
the Merger, ASAP Show assigned all of its pre-Merger business and assets to ASAP
Expo and ASAP Expo assumed responsibility for all of the liabilities of ASAP
Show that existed prior to the Merger. On May 24, 2007 ASAP Expo
entered into an Assignment and Assumption and Management Agreement with ASAP
Show and Frank Yuan whereby ASAP Expo acquired the operations of ASAP Show by
the assignment and transfer all of the assets and liabilities of ASAP Show to
ASAP Expo (the “Agreement”). The Agreement provides that Mr. Yuan
will manage ASAP Expo within his discretion, provided that his actions or
inactions do not threaten material injury to ASAP Show. The Agreement
further provides that Mr. Yuan will cause ASAP Expo to file a registration
statement that will, when declared effective, permit ASAP Show to distribute all
of the issued and outstanding shares of ASAP Expo to the holders of ASAP Show’s
common stock (the “Distribution”). Accordingly, upon the registration
statement being declared effective, the Board of Directors of China Yili will
fix a record date and shareholders of record on that date will receive the
Shares (hereinafter defined) of ASAP Expo in proportion to their ownership of
China Yili common stock.
ASAP Expo
is operating the business of organizing trade-shows. ASAP Expo is initially
targeting the apparel industry. Our corporate headquarters are
located at 9436 Jacob Lane, Rosemead, California 91731 and our phone number is
(626) 297-1800.
The
Offering
This
Prospectus relates to the distribution of 8,701,480 shares (the “Shares”) of
common stock of ASAP Expo by China Yili, which owns one hundred percent (100%)
of ASAP Expo. The Shares are being distributed in the form of a
dividend to ASAP Show’s common stock holders on a pro rata
basis. ASAP Expo will not receive any proceeds in this distribution
of Shares by China Yili. ASAP Expo will pay all expenses in
connection with this offering.
RISK
FACTORS
Prospective
investors should carefully consider the risks described below, in conjunction
with other information and the Company’s consolidated financial statements and
related notes included elsewhere in this Prospectus, before making an investment
decision. The Company’s business, financial condition and results of
operations could be affected materially and adversely by any and or all of these
risks.
The
following risk factors include, among other things, cautionary statements with
respect to certain forward-looking statements, including statements of certain
risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to vary materially from
the future results referred to in such forward-looking statements.
THE
COMPANY IS SUBJECT TO UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS WHICH COULD ADVERSELY
AFFECT THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS.
ASAP
Expo's primary source of income is from overseas apparel exporters who are
willing to exhibit at its trade shows and participate in buying trips. Apparel
imports into the United States are heavily regulated by the United States
government. If the United States government imposes higher tariffs, increases
quotas or imposes limitations on quantities of imports, it will adversely affect
ASAP Expo's business. Fewer foreign apparel exporters will participate in ASAP
Expo's events if it is limited in exporting to the United States.
THE
COMPANY IS SUBJECT TO FOREIGN GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS WHICH COULD ADVERSELY
AFFECT THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS.
ASAP
Expo's primary source of income is from overseas apparel exporters who are
willing to exhibit at its trade shows and participate in buying trips. Foreign
governments may advise their exporters to sell merchandise to countries other
than the United States to balance their export concentration. Such policies
could adversely affect ASAP Expo's trade show exhibitor revenue because foreign
exporters will promote their business by following their own government's
policies and incentives.
THE
WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION'S BILATERAL AGREEMENTS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE
COMPANY'S BUSINESS.
Apparel
imports are governed by the World Trade Organization's ("WTO") bilateral
agreements between the United States and each other country. For example, even
though China is a WTO member, the United States can elect, based upon safeguards
and market disruptions, to limit the export quantities to the United
States. The Company’s management has found that because of China's
limitations of exports to the United States, fewer Chinese manufacturers are
willing to exhibit in United States trade shows. For example, when China
officially became a member of WTO on January 1, 2005, ASAP Show's trade show in
Las Vegas in February 2005 had 35 exhibitors from China. The Chinese exporters
believed that their exports to the United States would be free of quota
limitations. However when the United States imposed the safeguards/market
disruption quotas in early 2005, the number of Chinese exhibitors at the August
2005 trade show declined to 20. However, attendance for the February 2006 trade
show increased to a number of exhibitors that was consistent with the February
2005 trade show.
ASAP Expo
estimates that 30% of its total revenue in 2008 will be from China.
THE
COMPANY EXPECTS TO BE DEPENDANT UPON REVENUE FROM UNPROVEN TRADE SHOWS WHICH
MAKES OUR REVENUE POTENTIAL UNCERTAIN.
ASAP Expo
expects to depend primarily on revenue from trade shows. The trade shows have
generated revenue in the past. Growth in trade shows depends upon venue
availability, continued willingness of manufacturers to pay to exhibit and
buyers’ willingness to attend. There is no assurance that venues will
be available in Las Vegas or that exhibitors will continue to pay fees or that
attendees will continue to find it worthwhile to attend. Therefore there is no
guarantee that the trade shows will continue to generate revenue or that revenue
will meet management's expectations. ASAP Expo's primary source of funds will be
trade show revenue and ASAP Expo’s $1,300,000 line of credit provided by Mr.
Yuan, the Company’s CEO, and his wife, Vicky Yuan.
THE
COMPANY FACES INTENSE COMPETITION FROM MANY ENTITIES.
The trade
show marketplace is highly competitive. The barrier to entry is not significant.
We have identified and continue to identify numerous companies that are better
funded, have more experience and more significant resources that have entered or
are planning to enter the trade show business. Should these companies decide to
enter our specific market, there is no guarantee that we will be able to compete
with them effectively.
THE
COMPANY IS DEPENDENT ON FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS SUBSIDIZING THEIR EXPORTERS'
EXHIBITION FEES.
ASAP Expo
heavily relies on foreign alliances with manufacturers and their governments'
willingness to subsidize their exporters’ exhibit fees for the trade shows. If a
foreign government decides to drop the financial support of its exporters at the
trade shows, this will have an immediate negative impact on ASAP Expo's trade
show revenue. For example, Macau has been supporting its exporters at ASAP
Expo's trade shows. If for any reason, the Macau government decides to not pay
for its exporters to exhibit, it will be very hard for the exporters to pay on
their own.
THE
COMPANY IS DEPENDENT ON MARKET DEMAND FOR AN ACCEPTANCE OF OUR SERVICE WHICH IF
DOES NOT EXIST WOULD HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OUR BUSINESS.
Much of
ASAP Expo's success is dependent upon aggregating a critical mass of subscribing
overseas manufacturers and trade show attendees and establishing and maintaining
strong relationships with clients. If market demand and acceptance for our
services is not in line with our expectations, it is likely that revenue will
not meet our expectations.
WE
ARE DEPENDENT ON RELATIONSHIPS WITH KEY APPAREL RETAILERS / BUYERS, AND THE
ABILITY TO CREATE MORE SUCH RELATIONSHIPS, THE LOSS OF ANY OF WHICH COULD HAVE A
NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OUR BUSINESS.
Our
business model is retailer/buyer -centric. Successful implementation of it is
predicated on our ability to create and nurture strong relationships with
retailers/buyers. If we are unable to maintain existing relationships, our
revenue profitability will not meet our expectations. Although ASAP Expo
believes it can create and maintain the necessary relationships, there is no
guarantee that it will.
WE
DEPEND ON THE RELIABILITY OF OUR SERVICES.
As a
member of the service industry, ASAP Expo is dependent upon the reliability of
its trade show, software and hardware. There is no guarantee that ASAP Expo will
be able to provide reliable services. Even though ASAP Expo's trade show is a
unique sourcing show with niche services such as matchmaking and educational
seminars, there is no guarantee that other trade shows such as MAGIC will not
copy or follow our unique services. If a competitor starts to copy our unique
services, which is possible, management believes that it will face more intense
competition than before.
WE
DEPEND UPON KEY MEMBERS OF MANAGEMENT, THE LOSS OF ANY OF WHOM WOULD NEGATIVELY
IMPACT OUR BUSINESS.
The
implementation of our business plan relies on key members of the management team
and sales, marketing, and finance personnel. There is no guarantee that these
employees will continue to work for ASAP Expo. In addition, there is no
guarantee that ASAP Expo will be able to replace these employees with personnel
of similar caliber should they not be able to work, or decide not to work for
ASAP Expo.
ASAP
EXPO HAD AN CAPITAL DEFICIENCY OF $1,126,289 AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2007, AND WE
HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION FROM OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
REGARDING OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN, AND WE MAY NEVER ACHIEVE
PROFITABILITY .
ASAP
Expo’s parent company, ASAP Show, had a history of operating
losses. At September 30, 2007, the Company has a capital deficiency
of approximately $1,126,289 resulted from the accumulated deficit of its parent
company that was transferred to the Company pursuant to the
Agreement. ASAP Show has not been profitable since inception and we
do not expect ASAP Expo to be profitable in the near future. No assurances can
be given as to whether we will ever be profitable.
Our
independent registered public accounting firm has added an explanatory paragraph
to their report of independent registered public accounting firm issued in
connection with the financial statements for the period ended May 31, 2007,
relative to the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern. Our ability to obtain additional funding will determine our ability to
continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
ASAP Expo
will not receive any proceeds from the distribution of the Shares.
The
Shares are being distributed as a dividend to the shareholders of China
Yili.
Not
applicable.
The sole
Selling Security Holder is China Yili Petroleum Company, which owns 100% of the
outstanding shares of common stock of ASAP Expo and will not own any shares
after the distribution.
There is
no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with this
offering. China Yili may be deemed an “underwriter” within the
meaning of the Securities Act with respect to the Shares offered by China
Yili. Upon effectiveness of the registration statement, the Shares
will be distributed on a pro rata basis to the common stock holders of China
Yili (the “Distribution”). The Shares will not be distributed to
either China Yili Series A preferred stockholders or stockholders of China Yili
common stock who received their shares of common stock in exchange for shares
China Yili Series A preferred stock.
The
Distribution will be a taxable event to those China Yili common stock holders
receiving Shares therefrom.
After the
Distribution, the Shares may be sold from time to time by the shareholders of
ASAP Expo, transferees or other successors in interests. Such sales
may be made from time to time on the OTCBB or on any other market or exchange on
which the common stock of ASAP Expo may be traded or listed at the time of sale
or otherwise at prices and terms then prevailing or at prices related to the
then current market price, or in negotiated transactions. The Shares
may be sold by one or more of the following:
·
|
ordinary
brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer

The
following discussion of the plan of operation of ASAP Expo should be read in
conjunction with ASAP Expo's audited and un-audited financial statements and the
related notes thereto which are included elsewhere in this registration
statement for the periods ended May 31, 2007, and September 30, 2007,
respectively. The Distribution of all of the issued and outstanding
shares of ASAP Expo to the holders of China Yili’s common stock will cause ASAP
Expo to spin-off from China Yili. The beginning balances of ASAP
Expo’s assets and liabilities are the balances of China Yili’s assets and
liabilities as of May 24, 2007.
Certain
statements contained herein may constitute forward-looking
statements. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from
the results anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of a
variety of factors.

PLAN
OF OPERATION
REVENUES
Transaction
Sales
Even
though transaction sales gross revenue has been declining, management will
continue this business segment. ASAP Expo does not expect this net revenue
percentage to grow, as its main focus is on trade show revenue.
Trade
Shows
ASAP GLOBAL SOURCING
SHOW
The ASAP
Global Sourcing Show segment derives revenue principally from the sale of
exhibit space, sponsorship and conference attendance fees generated at its
events. In 2007, approximately 95% of our trade show revenue was from the sale
of exhibit space. Events are generally held on a semi-annual basis in Las Vegas,
Nevada. At many of our trade shows, a portion of exhibit space is reserved and
partial payment is received as much as 90 days in advance. Cash is collected in
advance of an event and is recorded on our balance sheet as deferred revenue.
Revenue and related direct event expenses are recognized in the month in which
the event is held.
Trade
show business is seasonal, with revenue typically reaching its highest levels
during the first and third quarters of each fiscal year, largely due to the
timing of the ASAP Global Sourcing shows held in February and August each year.
In 2007, approximately 58% of our tradeshow revenue was generated during the
third quarter (August show) and approximately 42% during the first quarter
(February show). Because event revenue is recognized when a particular event is
held, we also experience fluctuations in quarterly revenue based on the movement
of annual trade show dates from one quarter to another.
Due to
the Men's Apparel Guild in California's ("MAGIC") establishment of its Sourcing
Zone, which is held at the same time as our shows, management believes the
competing MAGIC show will make it difficult for the ASAP Global Sourcing Show to
have significant growth.
FASHION INTERNATIONAL TRADE
SHOW (“FITS”)
FITS is
the only Licensing Trade show held in China, committed to launch international
fashion, accessory and footwear brands into China - the fastest growing consumer
market in the world. FITS provides the most cost effective way and "first entry"
advantage by finding an experienced partner to act as a Master Licensee to
overcome the complexity of the Chinese distribution system.
FITS
generates its revenue mostly from booth sales.
CHINA BUYING
TRIPS
It was
the first buying tour of its kind designed for United States and European Union
buyers prepared to place production orders, license their brands, understand
China's distribution channels, find joint venture possibilities and relocate
United States textile plants to China. Management is planning to conduct
multiple, but small size buying trips to China and Southeast Asia countries
annually.
ECO SHOW
Environment
concerned green nature products is the main focus of Eco Trade Show, a division
of ASAP Show, which was launched its first edition in February
2007.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During
the next twelve months, ASAP Expo will focus on its trade show business model to
generate additional revenue. With the net revenue from its trade show,
controlling and reducing G & A expenses, and continuing support from its CEO
to provide a revolving line-of-credit, management believes ASAP Expo will have
enough net working capital to sustain its business for another 12
months.
ASAP Expo
has a revolving line-of-credit from ASAP Expo’s CEO, Frank Yuan, his wife Vicky
Yuan. The Line, as amended, expires on August 1, 2009, and provides
for a total maximum credit line of $1,300,000. The Line carries an interest rate
of 10% per annum. The total balance as of September 30, 2007, was
$1,083,137, excluding the accrued and unpaid interest of $35,589.
The
forecast of the period of time through which ASAP Expo’s financial resources
will be adequate to support its operations is a forward-looking statement that
involves risks and uncertainties. ASAP Expo’s actual funding requirements may
differ materially as a result of a number of factors, including unknown expenses
associated with the cost of continuing to implement ASAP Expo’s international
electronic trading business and trade show expansion.
ASAP Expo
has no commitments to make capital expenditures for the fiscal year ending May
31, 2008.
ASAP Expo
does not expect any significant change in the number of employees.
ASAP Expo
does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Over the
next two to five years, ASAP Expo plans to utilize a combination of internally
generated funds from operations and potential debt and equity financing to fund
its long-term growth.
CRITICAL
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The
preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the
amounts reported in the our financial statements and the accompanying notes. The
amounts of assets and liabilities reported on our balance sheet and the amounts
of revenues and expenses reported for each of our fiscal periods are affected by
estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to, the
accounting for revenue recognition, stock based compensation and the valuation
of deferred taxes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The
following critical accounting policies are significantly affected by judgments,
assumptions and estimates used in the preparation of the financial
statements:
Revenue
Recognition
In
December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin 101 ("SAB 101"), "Revenue Recognition" which outlines the
basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provide guidance for
presentation of revenue and for disclosure related to revenue recognition
policies in financial statements filed with the SEC. SAB 101 has been amended
and replaced by SAB 104. Management believes ASAP Expo's revenue recognition
policies conform to SAB 104.
Net
revenues include amounts earned under transaction sales, trade shows, buying
trips, Material World and subscription fees.
Transaction
Sales
Transaction
revenues are recorded in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No.
("EITF") 99-19 "Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus net as an Agent."
ASAP Expo recognizes net revenues from product transaction sales when title to
the product passes to the customer, net of factoring fees. For all product
transactions with its customers in 2007, ASAP Show acted as a principal, took
title to all products sold upon shipment, and bore inventory risk for return
products that ASAP Show was not able to return to the supplier, although these
risks are mitigated through arrangements with factories, shippers and
suppliers.
Trade
Shows
Trade
shows generate revenue through exhibitor booths sales, corporate sponsorship,
and advertising. Such revenue is typically collected in advance, deferred and
then recognized at the time of the related trade show. ASAP Expo organizes two
trade shows per year in February and August in Las Vegas.
Buying
Trips
Buying
trips generate revenue through the participating buyers ("Buyers") paying for
ASAP Expo's assistance during the travel through various foreign countries in
Asia to meet local apparel manufacturers. ASAP Expo receives a portion of
exhibition net revenues collected by the oversea government's trade promotion
agencies located in the various cities which were visited by the Buyers (we do
not share any losses, if any). Buying Trip's revenue is recognized ratably
during the period in which the event is conducted. Management is planning to
conduct multiple, but small size buying trips to China and Southeast Asia
countries annually.
Deferred Tax Asset
Valuation
ASAP Expo
accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard
("SFAS") No. 109, "ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME Taxes." Under SFAS No. 109, 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. 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. Management provides a valuation allowance for
significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such assets
will not be recovered.
New Accounting
Pronouncements
In
December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004),
"Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS No. 123(R)"), which is a revision of SFAS
No. 123. SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes Accounting Principles Board ("APB") No. 25
and amends SFAS No. 95, "Statement of Cash Flows." SFAS No. 123(R) requires all
share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options,
to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma
disclosure is no longer an alternative. The provisions of this statement are
effective for the Company as of June 1, 2006.
SFAS No.
123(R) requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the
grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation
issued to employees. SFAS No. 123(R) also establishes accounting requirements
for measuring, recognizing and reporting share-based compensation, including
income tax considerations. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 123(R) using the
modified prospective application in June 2006. Under the modified prospective
application, the cost of new awards and awards modified, repurchased or
cancelled after the required effective date and the portion of awards for which
the requisite service has not been rendered (unvested awards) that are
outstanding as of the required effective date will be recognized as the
requisite service is rendered on or after the required effective date. The
compensation cost for that portion of awards shall be based on the grant-date
fair value of those awards as calculated for either recognition or pro forma
disclosures under SFAS No. 123.
The
adoption of SFAS No. 123(R)'s fair value method will have a negative impact on
the Company's results of operations if the Company grants share-based payments
to its employees in the future, although it will have no impact on its overall
financial position. The impact of adopting SFAS No. 123(R) cannot be predicted
at this time because it will depend on levels of share-based payments granted in
the future. SFAS No. 123(R) also requires the benefits of tax deductions in
excess of recognized compensation cost to be reported as a financing cash flow,
rather than as an operating cash flow as required under current accounting
literature. The requirement will reduce net operating cash flows and increase
net financing cash flows in periods of adoption.
As of
September 30, 2007, the Company has not issued any share-based payments to its
employees.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”
(SFAS 157). This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for
measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value
measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 157 on our financial
condition and results of operations.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting
for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment
of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)” (SFAS No. 158”). SFAS No. 158
requires an employer that sponsors one or more single-employer defined benefit
plans to (a) recognize the over-funded or under-funded status of a benefit plan
in its statement of financial position, (b) recognize as a component of other
comprehensive income, net of tax, the gains or losses and prior service costs or
credits that arise during the period but are not recognized as components of net
periodic benefit cost pursuant to SFAS No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for
Pensions”, or SFAS No. 106, “Employers’ Accounting for Postretirement Benefits
Other Than Pensions”, (c) measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations as
of the date of the employer’s fiscal year-end, and (d) disclose in the notes to
financial statements additional information about certain effects on net
periodic benefit cost for the next fiscal year that arise from delayed
recognition of the gains or losses, prior service costs or credits, and
transition asset or obligation. The Company does not expect the adoption
of SFAS 158 to have a material effect
on its financial statements and related disclosures.
ASAP Expo
continues to assess the effects of recently issued accounting standards. The
impact of all recently adopted and issued accounting standards has been
disclosed in the footnotes to ASAP Expo's audited financial statements, note
1.
CHANGES
IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL
DISCLOSURE
None.
Foreign
Currency Exposures
Even
though ASAP Expo’s primary business is to bring foreign manufacturers to exhibit
at trade shows in the United States, our earnings are not affected by
fluctuations in the value of our currency against foreign currencies, as our
revenues are U.S. dollar denominated.
Interest
Rate Risk
The
Company’s primary cash resource has been through the Company’s line of credit
from Frank and Vickie Yuan. The interest rate for the Line is fixed
at 10% interest per annum. Hence, the Company is not affected by
interest rate fluctuations.
Credit
Line Risk
With
respect to the Company’s Line, ASAP Expo is exposed to a potential reduction of
the credit line, should Frank and Vickie Yuan choose to extend the Line to the
Company.
Country
Risk
A
substantial portion of our business and operations are located and conducted in
China, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh & other Far Eastern
countries. Should the economic growth in these countries slow due to
economic down turn, implementation of trade regulations complicating export to
the U.S., or the occurrence of any other event or events that may have a
negative impact on the economies of the aforementioned countries and region, our
business is negatively affected as a result, then our financial results,
including our ability to generate revenues and profits, will also be negatively
affected.

the Line. At September 30, 2007, the balance of the Line was $1,083,137,
excluding the accrued and unpaid interest of $35,589.
ASAP Expo
has a working capital advance loan to an affiliated company, IBMC, whose major
shareholder is Frank Yuan. There is no written note for the working
capitals loaned to IBMC. At September 30, 2007, the balance of the
loan was $150,389.
ASAP Expo
was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on April 10, 2007, and is
a wholly owned subsidiary of China Yili (a Nevada corporation formerly operating
under the name ASAP Show, Inc.). On May 24, 2007, prior to ASAP
Show’s merger with Sino-American Petroleum, ASAP Show assigned to ASAP Expo its
pre-merger operations, assets, and liabilities in exchange for 8,701,480 shares
of ASAP Expo’s common stock.
DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR
SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
ASAP
Expo's Articles of Incorporation provide that ASAP Expo shall indemnify to the
fullest extent permitted by Nevada law any person who is made, or threatened to
be made, a party to any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative, investigative, or otherwise (including an action, suit or
proceeding by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the
person is or was a director or officer of the corporation or a fiduciary within
the meaning of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 with respect
to any employee benefit plan of the corporation, or serves or served at the
request of the corporation as a director or officer, or as a fiduciary of an
employee benefit plan, of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust
or other enterprise. The right to and amount of indemnification shall be
determined in accordance with the provisions of Nevada Revised Statutes in
effect at the time of the determination.
Our
Bylaws generally require that we advance to our directors and officers expenses
incurred by them in defending a proceeding in advance of its final disposition,
provided that the director or officer agrees to reimburse us for such advances
if it is ultimately found that the director or officer is not entitled to
indemnification. In addition, our bylaws permit us to purchase insurance on
behalf of our directors and officers against any liability asserted against them
in such capacity. We intend to obtain such insurance.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of ASAP Expo pursuant
to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, ASAP Expo has been advised that in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by ASAP Expo of
expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of ASAP
Expo in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by
such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities
being registered, ASAP Expo will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.

Expo's Articles of Incorporation provide that ASAP Expo shall indemnify to the
fullest extent permitted by Title 7 of the Nevada Revised Statutes any person
who is made, or threatened to be made, a party to any action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative, or otherwise
(including an action, suit or proceeding by or in the right of the corporation)
by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director or officer of the

or officer, or as a fiduciary of an employee benefit plan, of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The right to
and amount of indemnification shall be determined in accordance with the
provisions of the Delaware Corporate Code in effect at the time of the
determination.
Our
Bylaws generally require that we advance to our directors and officers expenses
incurred by them in defending a proceeding in advance of its final disposition,
provided that the director or officer agrees to reimburse us for such advances
if it is ultimately found that the director or officer is not entitled to

the payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of us in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion
of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by
it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
ITEM 15 -RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
Pursuant
to the Agreement whereby ASAP Show assigned all of its pre-Merger business and
assets to ASAP Expo and ASAP Expo assumed responsibility for all of the
liabilities of ASAP Show that existed prior to the Merger, ASAP Expo issued

EXPO, INC.
NOTES
TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER
30, 2007
NOTE
1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION
ASAP
Expo, Inc. (“ASAP Expo” or the “Company”) was incorporated on April 10, 2007
under the laws of the State of Nevada and is a wholly owned subsidiary of ASAP
Show, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“ASAP Show”).
On August
13, 2007 ASAP Show acquired the outstanding capital stock of Sino-American
Petroleum Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Sino-American Petroleum”) (the
“Merger”), through the issuance of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to
the shareholders of Sino-American Petroleum.Sino-American Petroleum is a holding
company that owns all of the registered capital of Tongliao Yili Asphalt Co.
(“Yili Asphalt”), a corporation organized under the laws of The People’s
Republic of China.Yili Asphalt is engaged in the business of refining heavy oil
into asphalt, fuel oil and lubricants.All of Yili Asphalt’s business is
currently in China.
Prior to
the Merger, ASAP Show assigned all of its pre-Merger business and assets to ASAP
Expo and ASAP Expo assumed responsibility for all of the liabilities of ASAP
Show that existed prior to the Merger.On May 24, 2007 ASAP Expo entered into an
Assignment and Assumption and Management Agreement with ASAP Show and Frank Yuan
whereby ASAP Expo acquired the operations of ASAP Show by the assignment and
transfer all of the assets and liabilities of ASAP Show to ASAP Expo (the
“Agreement”).The Agreement provides that Mr. Yuan will manage ASAP Expo within
his discretion, provided that his actions or inactions do not threaten material
injury to ASAP Show.The Agreement further provides that Mr. Yuan will cause ASAP
Expo to file a registration statement that will, when declared effective, permit
ASAP Show to distribute all of the issued and outstanding shares of ASAP Expo to
the holders of ASAP Show’s common stock (the “Distribution”).Upon the
registration statement being declared effective, the Board of Directors of ASAP
Show will fix a record date and shareholders of record on that date will receive
the Shares of ASAP Expo in proportion to their ownership of ASAP Show common
stock as a dividend to ASAP Show’s common stock held by them.
The
Distribution will cause ASAP Expo to spin-off from ASAP Show and allow the
shareholders of ASAP Show to participate in the growth of the trade show
business through the spin-off of the ASAP Expo, which owns and operates the
trade show business.The beginning balances of ASAP Expo’s assets and liabilities
are the balances of ASAP Show’s assets and liabilities as of May 24,
2007.
ASAP
Show, Inc. was incorporated in December 2004 under the laws of the State of
Nevada. ASAP Show's value to global suppliers and buyers in the manufacturing,
wholesaling and retailing clothing business lies in its capabilities as an
intermediary for the industry. The Company believes it has built a foundation to
meet today's ever-changing international trading landscape.
The
Apparel Sourcing Association Pavilion Trade Show ("ASAP Show") is the core
business of the Company. ASAP Show is a global apparel and textile sourcing show
that brings leading manufacturers from around the world to one venue to meet,
greet and sell to buyers. The ASAP Show is held twice a year in Las Vegas,
Nevada.
GOING
CONCERN
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern.
At
September 30, 2007, the Company has a capital deficiency of approximately
$1,126,289 resulted from the accumulated deficit of its parent company that was
transferred to the Company according to the Agreement, negative working capital
of approximately $43,008 and a lack of profitable operating history. The Company
hopes to increase revenues from its trade shows and buying trips. In the absence
of significant increases in revenues, the Company intends to fund operations
through additional debt and equity financing arrangements. The successful
outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time and there are no
assurances that if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute
its intended business plan or generate positive operating results.
The
Company's success is dependent upon numerous items, certain of which are the
successful growth of revenues from its products and services and its ability to
obtain new customers/exhibitors in order to achieve levels of revenues adequate
to support the Company's current and future cost structure, for which there is
no assurance. Unanticipated problems, expenses, and delays are frequently
encountered in establishing and maintaining profitable operations. These
include, but are not limited to, competition, the need to develop customer
support capabilities and market expertise, technical difficulties, market
acceptance and sales and marketing. The failure of the Company to meet any of
these conditions could have a materially adverse effect on the Company and may
force the Company to reduce or curtail operations. No assurance can be given
that the Company can achieve or maintain profitable operations.
The
Company believes it will have adequate cash to sustain operations until it
achieves sustained profitability. However, until the Company has a history of
maintaining revenue levels sufficient to support its operations and repay its
working capital deficit, the Company may require additional financing. Sources
of financing could include capital infusions, additional equity financing or
debt offerings. There can be no assurance that funding will be available on
acceptable terms, if at all, or that such funds, if raised, would enable the
Company to achieve or sustain profitable operations.
These
factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not
include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the
recoverability and classification of assets or the classification of liabilities
that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
USE
OF ESTIMATES
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting periods. No significant estimates were made in these
financial statements.
RISKS
AND UNCERTAINTIES
The
Company operates in a highly competitive trade show environment that is subject
to government regulation and rapid change. The Company's operations are subject
to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational and other
risks associated with the business, including the potential risk of business
failure.
CURRENT
VULNERABILITY DUE TO CERTAIN CONCENTRATIONS
Certain
financial instruments, principally accounts receivable, potentially subject the
Company to credit risks. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its
customers but does not require collateral. The Company maintains an allowance
for doubtful receivables and sales returns based upon factors surrounding the
credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and the Company's estimate
of future product returns. As of the balance sheet date, no allowance is
required nor provided against these receivables, which are deemed to be
collectible in the normal course of business. Although the Company expects to
collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated
amounts.
There
were no significant sales concentrations for period from May 24, 2007 to
September 30, 2007 and no accounts receivable concentrations at September 30,
2007.
PROPERTY
AND EQUIPMENT
Property
and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of property and equipment was
calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets, generally three to five years. Leasehold improvements were amortized
over the shorter of the amortized useful lives or the lease term.
Maintenance,
repairs and minor renewals are charged directly to expense as incurred.
Additions and betterments to property and equipment are capitalized. When assets
are disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation thereon are
removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the
statement of operations.
Property
and equipment are fully depreciated at September 30, 2007.
REVENUE
RECOGNITION
In
December 1999, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 101 ("SAB 101"),
"Revenue Recognition," which outlines the basic criteria that must be met to
recognize revenue and provide guidance for presentation of revenue and for
disclosure related to revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed
with the SEC. SAB 101 has been amended and replaced by SAB 104. Management
believes the Company's revenue recognition policies conform to SAB
104.
Revenues
include amounts earned under transaction sales, trade shows, and Buying
Trips.
Transaction
Sales
Transaction
revenues are recorded in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No.
("EITF") 99-19 "Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus net as an Agent."
The Company recognizes revenues from product transaction sales when title to the
product passes to the customer. For all product transactions with its customers,
the Company acts as a principal, takes title to all products sold upon shipment,
and bears inventory risk for return products that the Company is not able to
return to the supplier, although these risks are mitigated through arrangements
with factories, shippers and suppliers.
Trade
Shows
Trade
Shows generate revenue through exhibitor booths sales, corporate sponsorship,
and advertising. Such revenue is typically collected in advance, deferred and
then recognized at the time of the related trade show. The Company organizes two
trade shows per year in February and August in Las Vegas.
Buying
Trips
Buying
Trips generate revenue through the participating buyers ("Buyers") paying for
the Company's assistance during the travel through various foreign countries in
Asia to meet local apparel manufacturers. The Company receives a portion of
exhibition net revenues collected by the overseas government's trade promotion
agencies located in the various cities which were visited by the Buyers (i.e.
the Company does not share any losses, if any). The Buying Trip's revenue is
recognized ratably during the period in which the event is conducted. Management
is planning to conduct multiple, but small size buying trips to China and
Southeast Asia countries annually.
INCOME
TAXES
The
Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under SFAS No. 109,
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. 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. A valuation allowance is
provided for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not
those assets will not be recovered.
LOSS
PER SHARE
Under
SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share," basic loss per share is computed by dividing
net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of
common shares assumed to be outstanding during the period of computation.
Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except
that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common
shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been
issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. If the Company has
incurred net losses, basic and diluted losses per share are the same as
additional potential common shares would be anti-dilutive.
FAIR
VALUE
SFAS No.
107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires
disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments when it is
practicable to estimate that value. The carrying amounts of the Company's cash,
accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, deferred revenues and
line of credit from shareholders approximate their fair values due to the
short-term maturities of those financial instruments.
ADVERTISING
The
Company expenses the cost of advertising when incurred as general and
administrative expenses. No advertising expenses were incurred for period from
May 24, 2007 to September 30, 2007. Advertising costs consist primarily of costs
associated with the promotion of ASAP Global Sourcing Show
awareness.
SEGMENTS
OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION
SFAS No.
131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information"
dictates the way public companies report information about segments of their
business in their annual financial statements and requires them to report
selected segment information in their quarterly reports issued to shareholders.
It also requires entity-wide disclosures about the products and services an
entity provides, the material countries in which it holds assets and reports
revenues and its major customers (see Note 7).
RECENT
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In
December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004),
"Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS No. 123(R)"), which is a revision of SFAS
No. 123. SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes Accounting Principles Board ("APB") No. 25
and amends SFAS No. 95, "Statement of Cash Flows." SFAS No. 123(R) requires all
share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options,
to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma
disclosure is no longer an alternative. The provisions of this statement are
effective for the Company as of June 1, 2006.
SFAS No.
123(R) requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the
grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation
issued to employees. SFAS No. 123(R) also establishes accounting requirements
for measuring, recognizing and reporting share-based compensation, including
income tax considerations. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 123(R) using the
modified prospective application in June 2006. Under the modified prospective
application, the cost of new awards and awards modified, repurchased or
cancelled after the required effective date and the portion of awards for which
the requisite service has not been rendered (unvested awards) that are
outstanding as of the required effective date will be recognized as the
requisite service is rendered on or after the required effective date. The
compensation cost for that portion of awards shall be based on the grant-date
fair value of those awards as calculated for either recognition or pro forma
disclosures under SFAS No. 123.
The
adoption of SFAS No. 123(R)'s fair value method will have a negative impact on
the Company's results of operations if the Company grants share-based payments
to its employees in the future, although it will have no impact on its overall
financial position. The impact of adopting SFAS No. 123(R) cannot be predicted
at this time because it will depend on levels of share-based payments granted in
the future. SFAS No. 123(R) also requires the benefits of tax deductions in
excess of recognized compensation cost to be reported as a financing cash flow,
rather than as an operating cash flow as required under current accounting
literature. The requirement will reduce net operating cash flows and increase
net financing cash flows in periods of adoption.
As of
September 30, 2007, the Company has not issued any share-based payments to its
employees.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”
(SFAS 157). This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for
measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value
measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 157 on our financial
condition and results of operations.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting
for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment
of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)” (SFAS No. 158”). SFAS No. 158
requires an employer that sponsors one or more single-employer defined benefit
plans to (a) recognize the over-funded or under-funded status of a benefit plan
in its statement of financial position, (b) recognize as a component of other
comprehensive income, net of tax, the gains or losses and prior service costs or
credits that arise during the period but are not recognized as components of net
periodic benefit cost pursuant to SFAS No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for
Pensions”, or SFAS No. 106, “Employers’ Accounting for Postretirement Benefits
Other Than Pensions”, (c) measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations as
of the date of the employer’s fiscal year-end, and (d) disclose in the notes to
financial statements additional information about certain effects on net
periodic benefit cost for the next fiscal year that arise from delayed
recognition of the gains or losses, prior service costs or credits, and
transition asset or obligation.The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 158 to have a material effect
on its financial statements and related disclosures.
Other
recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging
Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and
the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by Management
to have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial
statements.
NOTE
2 – DUE FROM AFFILIATED COMPANY
The
Company has a loan to an affiliated company, IBMC whose major shareholder, Frank
Yuan is also a significant shareholder of ASAP Show.There is no written note for
the working capitals loaned to IBMC.At September 30, 2007, the balance of the
loan was $150,389.
NOTE
3 - LINE-OF-CREDIT FROM OFFICERS
The
Company has an unsecured revolving line-of-credit (the "Line") from Frank Yuan,
the Company's Chief Executive Officer, and certain family members which expires
on August 1, 2009 and provides for borrowings up to a maximum of $1,300,000, as
amended. The Line carries an interest rate of 10.0% per annum. The balance as of
September 30, 2007 was $1,083,137, and the accrued and unpaid interest was
$35,589.
NOTE
4 - INCOME TAXES
In
connection with the spin-off, the tax attributes associated with ASAP Show have
not been retained by the Company.At September 30, 2007, the Company’s deferred
tax assets or deferred tax liabilities were immaterial.
NOTE
5 - SHAREHOLDERS' DEFICIT
Options and
Warrants
The
Company does not have a stock option plan or any options or warrants issued and
outstanding as of September 30, 2007.
NOTE
6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Operating
Lease
Starting
July 1, 2007, the Company leases office space under month to month lease
agreement with its CEO Frank Yuan, an arms length transaction. The lease
provides for monthly lease payments of $4,500.
Litigation
On March
7, 2006, a complaint was filed against ASAP Show’s former parent company, Cyber
Merchants Exchange Inc. (“C-ME”) in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceeding in U.S.
Bankruptcy Court in the District of Delaware in the matter captioned In Re:
Factory 2-U Stores, Inc. The complaint seeks to recover from C-ME $91,572 in
alleged preferential transfers made to C-ME by the debtor during the ninety-day
period prior to the filing of the debtor's bankruptcy petition. C-ME intends to
defend against such preference claim by asserting that such transfers were made
in the ordinary course of business and such other available
defenses.
To the
extent C-ME incurs any losses, costs or damages with respect to the preference
claim, including attorneys' fees and related costs, C-ME believes it may recover
such losses, costs and damages from Frank Yuan and ASAP Show pursuant to the
indemnification provisions under the Transfer Agreement, which C-Me transferred
all of its assets and liabilities to ASAP Show. C-ME has informed Frank Yuan and
ASAP Show that it intends to seek indemnification from them with respect to the
preference claim. Further, C-ME has informed Frank Yuan and ASAP Show that the
$50,000 reserve originally due to be paid on March 28, 2006 under the terms of
the Transfer Agreement will be retained by C-ME until this preference claim is
resolved to satisfy any potential indemnity claims.
The
preference claim was settled in July, 2007 and on July 2, 2007, ASAP Expo
received $34,987 settlement amount derived from $50,000 net of $15,013 attorney
fee.

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the
Shareholders of
ASAP
Expo, Inc.
We have
audited the accompanying balance sheets of ASAP Expo, Inc. for the year ended
May 31, 2007 and the related statements of operations, shareholders' equity, and
cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management.Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We
conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards of the Public Company
Oversight Board (United States).Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement.An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for
our opinion.
In our
opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of ASAP Expo, Inc. as of May 31, 2007
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial
statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a
net capital deficiency, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters also are
described in Note 1.The financial statements do not include any adjustments that
might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

EXPO, INC.
NOTES
TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MAY
31, 2007
NOTE
1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
ORGANIZATION
ASAP
Expo, Inc. (“ASAP Expo” or the “Company”) was incorporated on April 10, 2007
under the laws of the State of Nevada and is a wholly owned subsidiary of ASAP
Show, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“ASAP Show”).
On August
13, 2007 ASAP Show acquired the outstanding capital stock of Sino-American
Petroleum Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Sino-American Petroleum”) (the
“Merger”), through the issuance of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to
the shareholders of Sino-American Petroleum.Sino-American Petroleum is a holding
company that owns all of the registered capital of Tongliao Yili Asphalt Co.
(“Yili Asphalt”), a corporation organized under the laws of The People’s
Republic of China.Yili Asphalt is engaged in the business of refining heavy oil
into asphalt, fuel oil and lubricants.All of Yili Asphalt’s business is
currently in China.
Prior to
the Merger, ASAP Show assigned all of its pre-Merger business and assets to ASAP
Expo and ASAP Expo assumed responsibility for all of the liabilities of ASAP
Show that existed prior to the Merger.On May 24, 2007 ASAP Expo entered into an
Assignment and Assumption and Management Agreement with ASAP Show and Frank Yuan
whereby ASAP Expo acquired the operations of ASAP Show by the assignment and
transfer all of the assets and liabilities of ASAP Show to ASAP Expo (the
“Agreement”).The Agreement provides that Mr. Yuan will manage ASAP Expo within
his discretion, provided that his actions or inactions do not threaten material
injury to ASAP Show.The Agreement further provides that Mr. Yuan will cause ASAP
Expo to file a registration statement that will, when declared effective, permit
ASAP Show to distribute all of the issued and outstanding shares of ASAP Expo to
the holders of ASAP Show’s common stock (the “Distribution”).Upon the
registration statement being declared effective, the Board of Directors of ASAP
Show will fix a record date and shareholders of record on that date will receive
the Shares of ASAP Expo in proportion to their ownership of ASAP Show common
stock as a dividend to ASAP Show’s common stock held by them.
The
Distribution will cause ASAP Expo to spin-off from ASAP Show and allow the
shareholders of ASAP Show to participate in the growth of the trade show
business through the spin-off of the ASAP Expo, which owns and operates the
trade show business.The beginning balances of ASAP Expo’s assets and liabilities
are the balances of ASAP Show’s assets and liabilities as of May 24,
2007.
ASAP
Show, Inc. was incorporated in December 2004 under the laws of the State of
Nevada. ASAP Show's value to global suppliers and buyers in the
manufacturing, wholesaling and retailing clothing business lies in its
capabilities as an intermediary for the industry. The Company believes it has
built a foundation to meet today's ever-changing international trading
landscape.
The
Apparel Sourcing Association Pavilion Trade Show ("ASAP Show") is the core
business of the Company. ASAP Show is a global apparel and textile sourcing show
that brings leading manufacturers from around the world to one venue to meet,
greet and sell to buyers. The ASAP Show is held twice a year in Las Vegas,
Nevada.
GOING
CONCERN
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern.
At May
31, 2007, the Company has a capital deficiency of approximately $1,376,289
resulted from the accumulated deficit of its parent company that was transferred
to the Company according to the “Agreement”, negative working capital of
approximately $349,081 and a lack of profitable operating history. The Company
hopes to increase revenues from its trade shows and buying trips. In the absence
of significant increases in revenues, the Company intends to fund operations
through additional debt and equity financing arrangements. The successful
outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time and there are no
assurances that if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute
its intended business plan or generate positive operating results.
The
Company's success is dependent upon numerous items, certain of which are the
successful growth of revenues from its products and services and its ability to
obtain new customers/exhibitors in order to achieve levels of revenues adequate
to support the Company's current and future cost structure, for which there is
no assurance. Unanticipated problems, expenses, and delays are frequently
encountered in establishing and maintaining profitable operations. These
include, but are not limited to, competition, the need to develop customer
support capabilities and market expertise, technical difficulties, market
acceptance and sales and marketing. The failure of the Company to meet any of
these conditions could have a materially adverse effect on the Company and may
force the Company to reduce or curtail operations. No assurance can be given
that the Company can achieve or maintain profitable operations.
The
Company believes it will have adequate cash to sustain operations until it
achieves sustained profitability. However, until the Company has a history of
maintaining revenue levels sufficient to support its operations and repay its
working capital deficit, the Company may require additional financing. Sources
of financing could include capital infusions, additional equity financing or
debt offerings. There can be no assurance that funding will be available on
acceptable terms, if at all, or that such funds, if raised, would enable the
Company to achieve or sustain profitable operations.
These
factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not
include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the
recoverability and classification of assets or the classification of liabilities
that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
USE
OF ESTIMATES
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting periods. No significant estimates were made in these
financial statements.
RISKS
AND UNCERTAINTIES
The
Company operates in a highly competitive trade show environment that is subject
to government regulation and rapid change. The Company's operations are subject
to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational and other
risks associated with the business, including the potential risk of business
failure.
CURRENT
VULNERABILITY DUE TO CERTAIN CONCENTRATIONS
Certain
financial instruments, principally accounts receivable, potentially subject the
Company to credit risks. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its
customers but does not require collateral. The Company maintains an allowance
for doubtful receivables and sales returns based upon factors surrounding the
credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and the Company's estimate
of future product returns. As of the balance sheet date, no allowance is
required nor provided against these receivables, which are deemed to be
collectible in the normal course of business. Although the Company expects to
collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated
amounts.
There
were no significant sales concentrations for period from May 24, 2007 to May 31,
2007 and no accounts receivable concentrations at May 31, 2007.
PROPERTY
AND EQUIPMENT
Property
and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of property and equipment was
calculated on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets, generally three to five years. Leasehold improvements were amortized
over the shorter of the amortized useful lives or the lease term.
Maintenance,
repairs and minor renewals are charged directly to expense as incurred.
Additions and betterments to property and equipment are capitalized. When assets
are disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation thereon are
removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the
statement of operations.
Property
and equipment are fully depreciated at May 31, 2007.
REVENUE
RECOGNITION
In
December 1999, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 101 ("SAB 101"),
"Revenue Recognition," which outlines the basic criteria that must be met to
recognize revenue and provide guidance for presentation of revenue and for
disclosure related to revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed
with the SEC. SAB 101 has been amended and replaced by SAB 104. Management
believes the Company's revenue recognition policies conform to SAB
104.
Revenues
include amounts earned under transaction sales, trade shows, and Buying
Trips.
Transaction
Sales
Transaction
revenues are recorded in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No.
("EITF") 99-19 "Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus net as an Agent."
The Company recognizes revenues from product transaction sales when title to the
product passes to the customer. For all product transactions with its customers,
the Company acts as a principal, takes title to all products sold upon shipment,
and bears inventory risk for return products that the Company is not able to
return to the supplier, although these risks are mitigated through arrangements
with factories, shippers and suppliers.
Trade
Shows
Trade
Shows generate revenue through exhibitor booths sales, corporate sponsorship,
and advertising. Such revenue is typically collected in advance, deferred and
then recognized at the time of the related trade show. The Company organizes two
trade shows per year in February and August in Las Vegas.
Buying
Trips
Buying
Trips generate revenue through the participating buyers ("Buyers") paying for
the Company's assistance during the travel through various foreign countries in
Asia to meet local apparel manufacturers. The Company receives a portion of
exhibition net revenues collected by the overseas government's trade promotion
agencies located in the various cities which were visited by the Buyers (i.e.
the Company does not share any losses, if any). The Buying Trip's revenue is
recognized ratably during the period in which the event is conducted. Management
is planning to conduct multiple, but small size buying trips to China and
Southeast Asia countries annually.
INCOME
TAXES
The
Company accounts for income taxes under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under SFAS No. 109,
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. 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. A valuation allowance is
provided for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not
those assets will not be recovered.
LOSS
PER SHARE
Under
SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share," basic loss per share is computed by dividing
net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of
common shares assumed to be outstanding during the period of computation.
Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except
that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common
shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been
issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. If the Company has
incurred net losses, basic and diluted losses per share are the same as
additional potential common shares would be anti-dilutive.
FAIR
VALUE
SFAS No.
107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires
disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments when it is
practicable to estimate that value. The carrying amounts of the Company's cash,
accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, deferred revenues and
line of credit from shareholders approximate their fair values due to the
short-term maturities of those financial instruments.
ADVERTISING
The
Company expenses the cost of advertising when incurred as general and
administrative expenses. No advertising expenses were incurred for period from
May 24, 2007 to May 31, 2007. Advertising costs consist primarily of costs
associated with the promotion of ASAP Global Sourcing Show
awareness.
SEGMENTS
OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION
SFAS No.
131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information"
dictates the way public companies report information about segments of their
business in their annual financial statements and requires them to report
selected segment information in their quarterly reports issued to shareholders.
It also requires entity-wide disclosures about the products and services an
entity provides, the material countries in which it holds assets and reports
revenues and its major customers (see Note 7).
RECENT
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In
December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004),
"Share-Based Payment" ("SFAS No. 123(R)"), which is a revision of SFAS
No. 123. SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes Accounting Principles Board ("APB") No. 25
and amends SFAS No. 95, "Statement of Cash Flows." SFAS No. 123(R) requires all
share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options,
to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma
disclosure is no longer an alternative. The provisions of this statement are
effective for the Company as of June 1, 2006.
SFAS No.
123(R) requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the
grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation
issued to employees. SFAS No. 123(R) also establishes accounting requirements
for measuring, recognizing and reporting share-based compensation, including
income tax considerations. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 123(R) using the
modified prospective application in June 2006. Under the modified prospective
application, the cost of new awards and awards modified, repurchased or
cancelled after the required effective date and the portion of awards for which
the requisite service has not been rendered (unvested awards) that are
outstanding as of the required effective date will be recognized as the
requisite service is rendered on or after the required effective date. The
compensation cost for that portion of awards shall be based on the grant-date
fair value of those awards as calculated for either recognition or pro forma
disclosures under SFAS No. 123.
The
adoption of SFAS No. 123(R)'s fair value method will have a negative impact on
the Company's results of operations if the Company grants share-based payments
to its employees in the future, although it will have no impact on its overall
financial position. The impact of adopting SFAS No. 123(R) cannot be predicted
at this time because it will depend on levels of share-based payments granted in
the future. SFAS No. 123(R) also requires the benefits of tax deductions in
excess of recognized compensation cost to be reported as a financing cash flow,
rather than as an operating cash flow as required under current accounting
literature. The requirement will reduce net operating cash flows and increase
net financing cash flows in periods of adoption.
As of May
31, 2007, the Company has not issued any share-based payments to its
employees.
In March
2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Accounting
Standards No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of
Financial Assets (SFAS 156), which amends SFAS 140, Accounting for Transfers and
Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities.SFAS 156 permits, but does
not require, an entity to choose either the amortization method or the fair
value measurement method for measuring each class of separately recognized
servicing assets and servicing liabilities.The provisions of SFAS No. 156 are effective
for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2006.The Company does not expect
the adoption of SFAS
156 to have a material
effect on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In
June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation
No. 48, Accounting
for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement
No. 109 (FIN 48).This interpretation clarifies the accounting for
uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements
in accordance with FASB
Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes.
FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for
the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or
expected to be taken in a tax return. It also provides guidance on
derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim
periods, disclosure, and transition.FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2006.The Company does not expect the adoption
of FIN 48 to have a
material effect on its financial statements and related
disclosures.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”
(SFAS 157). This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for
measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value
measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS 157 on our financial
condition and results of operations.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting
for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment
of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)” (SFAS No. 158”). SFAS No. 158
requires an employer that sponsors one or more single-employer defined benefit
plans to (a) recognize the over-funded or under-funded status of a benefit plan
in its statement of financial position, (b) recognize as a component of other
comprehensive income, net of tax, the gains or losses and prior service costs or
credits that arise during the period but are not recognized as components of net
periodic benefit cost pursuant to SFAS No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for
Pensions”, or SFAS No. 106, “Employers’ Accounting for Postretirement Benefits
Other Than Pensions”, (c) measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations as
of the date of the employer’s fiscal year-end, and (d) disclose in the notes to
financial statements additional information about certain effects on net
periodic benefit cost for the next fiscal year that arise from delayed
recognition of the gains or losses, prior service costs or credits, and
transition asset or obligation.The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 158 to have a material effect
on its financial statements and related disclosures..
Other
recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging
Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and
the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by Management
to have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial
statements.

Litigation
On March
7, 2006, a complaint was filed against ASAP Show’s former parent company, Cyber
Merchants Exchange Inc. (“C-ME”) in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceeding in U.S.
Bankruptcy Court in the District of Delaware in the matter captioned In Re:
Factory 2-U Stores, Inc. The complaint seeks to recover from C-ME $91,572 in
alleged preferential transfers made to C-ME by the debtor during the ninety-day
period prior to the filing of the debtor's bankruptcy petition. C-ME intends to
defend against such preference claim by asserting that such transfers were made
in the ordinary course of business and such other available
defenses.
To the
extent C-ME incurs any losses, costs or damages with respect to the preference
claim, including attorneys' fees and related costs, the C-ME believes it may
recover such losses, costs and damages from Frank Yuan and ASAP Show pursuant to
the indemnification provisions under the Transfer Agreement, which C-Me
transferred all of its assets and liabilities to ASAP Show. C-ME has informed
Frank Yuan and ASAP Show that it intends to seek indemnification from them with
respect to the preference claim. Further, C-ME has informed Frank Yuan and ASAP
Show that the $50,000 reserve originally due to be paid on March 28, 2006 under
the terms of the Transfer Agreement will be retained by C-ME until this
preference claim is resolved to satisfy any potential indemnity
claims.
The
preference claim was settled in July, 2007 and on July 2, 2007, ASAP Expo
received $34,987 settlement amount derived from $50,000 net of $15,013 attorney
fee.
